Abstract
This paper describes the task of air traffic controllers, which is to ensure safety for commercial and private aircraft, and various issues they encounter in their work. First, the paper discusses how the air traffic control system is run by the FAA (Federal Aviation Administration) and the ATCSCC (Air Traffic Control System Command Center) which is the at the head of all traffic control management. Then, the paper examines situations and conditions which can make the work stressful and difficult. Next, the paper considers staffing and management of air traffic controllers. Other issues that are explored include aircraft separation criteria and other safety measures. Finally, the paper addressed costs in air traffic control and the possibility of privatization. The paper concludes by discussing radar systems of communication and their importance.

From the Paper
"The air traffic control system is run by the FAA (Federal Aviation Administration, which uses the airspace divisions to guide the system. The ATCSCC (Air Traffic Control System Command Center is the at the head of all traffic control management. Problems such as bad weather, traffic overloads, and faulty runways are also under the jurisdiction of the ATCSCC. There is one Air Rout Traffic Control Center (ARTCC) for each center. The function of this entity is to handle air traffic within each sector except for TRACON and local airspace. The Air Each airport has an Air Traffic Control Tower (ATCT), which handles takeoff, landing, and ground traffic. The Flight Service Station (FSS) focuses its service and information on small airports and rural areas, where private pilots are in need of information such as the weather, route, terrain, and flight plan. The FSS also handles emergencies and search-and-rescue missions for aircraft that are missing or overdue."

Abstract
The following paper argues that gun control is a good thing because it has shown itself to be effective in other countries (notably Canada) at curbing crime. The paper additionally notes that at the very least, it keeps guns out of the hands of the deranged. Tthe points raised by gun control opponents take up the first half of this paper. This is followed by their positions being challenged by data showing that gun control can work if the bills are sufficiently comprehensive and enforcement is strict. In the end, America definitely needs wide-ranging gun control.

From the Paper
"The following paper will briefly argue that gun control is a good thing because it has shown itself to be effective in other countries (notably Canada) at curbing crime and because, at the very least, it keeps guns out of the hands of the deranged. However, in deference to those who do not share these views, the points raised by gun control opponents will take up the first half of this paper; afterward, their position will be challenged by data showing that gun control can work if the bills are sufficiently comprehensive and enforcement is strict. In the end, America definitely needs wide-ranging gun control."

Abstract
This paper discusses one of the most contentious issues in contemporary American life, birth control.
This paper examines birth control in America and argues that birth control is something which should be readily available to all citizens just as long as certain protocols are followed. In so doing, however, this paper also points out the arguments of those who are unconvinced that wide spread birth control is desirable. In the end, this paper's central contention is that having a child is an enormously challenging development in the lives of young people (or old people, for that matter) and it should only be undertaken if the parents (or parent) possess the maturity, the desire and the resources necessary to do the job well.

Abstract
The paper explains that issues of rent control and the often toxic debates that surround it have been a social and an economic concern for several decades. Typically, rent control efforts are made at the city or municipality level and are not enacted at the state or federal level. The paper discusses how rent control and the issues related to it are nothing more than a series of laws that are intended to control what city rents average, as well as regulate how much, percentage wise, they can be increased in any given year.

From the Paper
"Traditionally, New York, New Jersey and California are most commonly associated with rent controls because of those states' rapid cost of housing increases that have priced many consumers out of the housing market and forced many individuals to become career renters."

Abstract
In this article, the writer examines the gun control debate in the United States of America. The writer provides a review of the studies that relate to that debate. The history of gun control as an issue in American society is discussed in this paper. The writer argues that gun control policies should not be expanded and presents both sides of the control argument.

From the Paper
"Gun control has been a prominent issue in American politics since Revolutionary War. The Founding Fathers gave American citizens the right to bear arms in the Second Amendment to the Constitution. The debate over the government's ability to regulate the sale and use of guns can be most simply stated as a fundamental conflict between the rights of the citizen versus the need of the government to assure public safety. Opponents of gun control believe that any infringement of an individual's right to bear arms is unconstitutional and ... "

Abstract
In researching the subject of gun control and legislation to stop the incidence of violent crime, as well as accidental killings with a fire-arm, there exist opinions and statistics on both sides of the argument. The paper argues, however, that no matter how serious gun rights adherents are in their cries that citizens' rights are violated, gun control is necessary.

From the Paper
"It is important to understand that the legislators of various states as well as the U.S. Congress are working on restricting the unauthorized use and sale and maintenance of arms, not to bar any from being sold and owned. When the NRA and its members (and they are not all rednecks and the types found in the movie Deliverance) refuse to understand is that restriction does not mean a total ban, only proper and legal means of keeping guns from the hands of those who cannot and will not use them properly. There is a vast moral gulf between killing a deer (however much some even consider that a sin) and mowing down clerks in a convenience store or guards at a bank or murdering a spouse."

Abstract
This paper discusses four control mechanisms that Wal-Mart uses and how they affect the four functions of management--planning, organizing, leading and control.

From the Paper
"As the world's largest retailer, Wal-Mart has developed highly effective control mechanisms that enable it stay in the number one spot globally. Four of these control mechanisms include cost control, market control, inventory control and trust. Cost control is the mechanism that allows Wal-Mart to charge such ridiculously low prices. As Charles Fishman points out; "Wal-mart has sold a gallon of pickles-a year's supply-for less than consumers would pay for a quart of pickles at most grocery stores." It accomplishes this feat in two..."

Abstract
This paper examines the argument espoused by gun control advocates that gun control and licensing measures in the United States represent a political solution to avert the loss of lives due to handguns and firearm use. The paper suggests that these gun control advocates have long utilized an alternate reading of the Constitution's Second Amendment to argue that the Constitution itself does not permit individual firearm ownership and that therefore the right to bear arms is a misguided interpretation of the Constitution.
