Drinking & Driving - 0 views

  •  
    This article was full of statistics proving that no one should get behind the wheel of a vehicle after consuming alcohol. There are laws that are trying to be passed to mark the vehicle in some way or revoke your license. We all know that the punishment come gradually but could it change these mind blowing statistics if we put the revoking law in effect for a first time offender? We are talking about the lives of innocent people. Very interesting. it gives me something to consider.

Smoking Should Be Your Personal Freedom - 2 views

  •  
    This article is about how smoking is a personal freedom that effects the many and not the few. It is a good public health verses personal freedoms
  • ...2 more comments...

    The article talks about how smoking is not a personal freedom. It gives examples of how if it only affect the smoker it will be consider a personal freedom, but the fact is that it harms everyone around the smoker
  •  
    Some feel that smoking should be a personal choice, but at what cost to others. Smoking is a freedom that affects those around you. They infringe on someone's choice to not smoke.
  •  
    I believe that smoking should be kept away from others.
  •  
    The only way to isolate the situation I believe would be to make cigarette illegal. The government will never let that happen though because of the amount of money tobacco produces for them. Until that day, we will still continue to see people suffer and die from smoking.

Freedom to express style - 0 views

    That cute duckie wallpaper or nautical furniture set were great for your child's baby years and just barely tolerable through elementary school, but a bedroom makeover is hard to get around when a child heads for the tumultuous teens. Consider the four C's - classic, comfort, cool and color - when providing older kids with long-lasting lairs, er, lovely hangout-study spaces.

Why drinking age should be lowered: Dr. Ruth Engs - 1 views

  •  
    The legal drinking age for the U.S. should be lowered if the situation is being supervised in certain environments. Many drink underage to "rebel" against society norms so lowering the age would not call for such rebellion. Binge drinking would not take place if environment is being supervised.
  • ...1 more comment...
  •  
    The legal drinking age is currently twenty-one. If we were to lower this age limit, the author states " young adults allowed to drink in controlled environments such as restaurants, taverns, pubs and official school and university functions. In these situations responsible drinking could be taught through role modeling and educational programs".
  •  
    Should the legal drinking age in the US be lowered to 18? Articulates that young adults should be allowed to drink in a controlled environment.
  •  
    I agree and don't think it is any different than teaching young adults how to have safe sex if they choose to have sex. If someone is going to choose to drink at 18, 19, or 20 or 40 for that matter they should be held responsibile for their actions at any age. Why do the laws say purport that a person is an adult at age 18, can drive at age 16, but can't drink until 21? I think it's hypocritical to say someone is an adult at age 18 BUT, you can't drink until your 21.

Safety of using cell phones while driving - 0 views

  •  
    We have all seen people using their cell phones while driving, whether it be talking on them or texting. Several states have passed laws to ban using cell phones while driving knowing those who do so are at a higher risk for causing or being in an accident. Even though it may seem more safe to use your blu-tooth while driving, but numerous studies have suggested that drivers who use their cell phones in any way while driving, still poses a danger to themselves and other people on the road.

Arizona's Other Crazy New Law - 1 views

    In an attempt to preserve all that they believe is great about a free and just America, Arizona has opened US culture to two words that previously were the exclusive province of Nazi Germany and the communist bloc: "Papers, please."

    In an attempt to preserve all that they believe is great about a free and just America, Arizona has opened US culture to two words that previously were the exclusive province of Nazi Germany and the communist bloc: "Papers, please."
  •  
    This is crazy its about how the copscan arrest you on the spot if you can't prove your citizenship status. Further more it states that if you buy a gun made in Arizona you don't have to register it.
  •  
    The weapon of choose becomes their Constitution right to bear arms. Perhaps that prospect will make police a little more concerned about who they round up on the streets. We doubt it. Weapon's instructors in Arizona feel cheated by the state's law makers as they are killing their business.
  •  
    It is wrong to be stopped by patrol just because you don't seem to look like you're from the US. As for the weapons not having to be licensed also defeats the purpose. I think anyone who owns a concealed weapon should be trained on how to use it, and with that you have to own a license.
  •  
    I defiantly disagree with both of these laws. I don't think it is right that a cop can pull someone over just to make sure they are legal. I also think in order to be allowed to handle a gun people should go through safety classes.
  •  
    I think there should be a little more added to both these laws. If you want to search someone regardless of race, gender, religion or whatever you should need probable cause. Also I think if you are going to handle any type of weapon you should have some background with weapons handling; maybe off free weapons safety classes at public ranges?

Prenatal care and tests - 1 views

  •  
    This site is informative in giving women information about their prenatal care. It educates women about the different options they have in choosing a prenatal care provider along with the options for delivering the baby. It also takes you thru what to expect in your prenatal visits and the tests that should be run in order to provide essential good quality prenatal care.
  •  
    It would be smart for a pregnant women to know about the different options she has for the birth of her child. Women should seek the different specialized doctors to be educated on the healthiest way to give birth. More knowledge for the mother equals a healthier baby.
  •  
    this was really cool to read I mean obviously it is important for women to understand how this all works, but I think its equally as important for the guys to read and understand that way they can be more knowledgable and be more involved in the process.

    The article talks about how social media has no security. Explains threats on social media
  •  
    When people sign up for an account on a social media website, they agree to terms in which it states that your information could be used for anything they wish for.
  •  
    Social media is similar to high school, both false information and information you don't want getting out can and will spread fast and the truth doesn't always get out.

  •  
    It has happened in many cases, where people get raped because of the pictures that they post so i would suggest that everybody thinks twice about what they post before they do.
  •  
    There is a new show on MTV about a killer who finds his victims on a social media/dating app.While this takes it to an extreme it's ideas are not far fetched.
  •  
    I would think this is common sense, only post what you feel like you wouldn't mind everyone seeing, that includes your boss, teacher,etc...
  •  
    When posting anything on social media you have to accept the fact that everyone and anyone will and can see it. Also, there's no going back! Once it's out there it will most likely always be out there.
  •  
    Social has become a little too invasive. I enjoy social networking but sometimes it is way more information than I want to know about someone.

Alternative Education - 2 views

  •  
    Alternative education, also known as non-traditional education or educational alternative, describes a number of approaches to teaching and learning other than traditional publicly- or privately-run schools. These approaches can be applied to all students of all ages, from infancy to adulthood, and all levels of education.
  • ...1 more comment...
  •  
    Alternative education is very beneficial because people have different methods of learning but i dont think that they are being publicized enough for people to think about trying.
  •  
    I do think alternative learning is very important. Not everyone learns the same. But at the same time I don't really agree with homeschooling for a child's whole life. Yes homeschooling may be necessary sometimes but I am a strong believer of social interaction and think it is very important.
  •  
    I think it is really cool that they are coming up with multiple forms of education. It makes it so much easier to learn, and it takes some of the anxiety out of the learning process when you can find the best way that fits your learning needs.

Supreme Court Makes Big Decision On When Cops Can Enter Your Home - 0 views

  •  
    This article talks on a new ruling by the U.S. Supreme Court. In the past, if two occupants lived legally in the same house, it was required for an officer to have a warrant and permission from BOTH of the residents before being able to enter. Even if one person said yes and the other said no, the officer would not be able to enter. Now, if an officer has the, "ok" from at least one of the occupants, they can enter with just their approval.
