This article explains how the balancing of personal freedoms works into the government and the workplace of citizens today. A big example this article touches on is how online activity can be monitored. What is really private today?

Technology is advancing faster and faster every minute and privacy is something known of the past now in my opinion. One of my teachers told the class that everything you learn about computers during your freshman and sophomore years of college will most likely be outdated by your junior year - just to help realize how fast technology is actually growing. Anything online can affect you now-a-days it seems. On the news the other day, there was a story about Facebook Friends and your credit. People are actually being denied car loans or things of that sort because of the friends they have on Facebook because if their friends seem unreliable and have bad scores, then the company will assume you do too. It's getting ridiculous to be honest.

These days employers monitor and know everything you are doing. Knowing this, I feel like if you are acting in a way that is respectable both at work and in your personal life, you will have nothing to worry about. I do not see this issue of lack of privacy changing, I see it increasing as time goes on.

Embryonic stem cell research is the most controversial stem cell research since it involves destroying a human embryo. Embryonic stem cells are more beneficial than adult stem cells because they grow quicker and target a wider category of diseases. Creating and then destroying embryos is an non ethical treatment of the value of life.

Stem cell research is a touchy subject with a lot of people, mostly because it's about ethics. A lot of where stem cells come from is embryos, but there are a lot of other places they come from - such as Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells which are derived from an adult somatic cell.

It is against this historical backdrop that we encounter post-9/11 efforts to combat terrorist acts on American soil, and examine the role that race should play in an effective effort to deter future attacks. But before assessing whether our government's response to the events of 9/11 betray a pattern of racial profiling, I first want to identify what it is.
