Abstract
The paper discusses the novel "1984," where society is based on the conformity of individuals because of their fear of what will happen to them if they oppose those in control. In reality, it is evident that many societies throughout the world have functioned with this type of social order. The communist regime of the Soviet Union, Hitler's Nazi Germany and the governments of some Middle Eastern countries have promoted control of their citizens based on fear. The paper explains that the ideology expressed in "1984," that these types of countries cannot survive over time, however, is correct.

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 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
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
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 ... "

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 takes a look at the determination of how social control affects deviance is complicated by the variety of sociological theories on the question of deviance, and their diverse analyses of the interrelationship between society, social controls and deviance. Given this limitation, this essay critically examines how social controls affect deviance with respect to two interrelated areas: social controls on deviance in the family unit, and social controls on deviant sexual behavior. Within a structural-functional theoretical analysis, it argues that social order affects deviance in complex ways, and ultimately supports social order and can lead to social change.

From the Paper
"Giving Nicotine to the second Daphnia, caused a drop in its heart rate (graph 2). Since nicotine is a widely used drug which is a depressant, it lowers the beating of the Daphnia heart. The Daphnia that acquired epinephrine, experienced a jump in heart rate (graph 3). Epinephrine, otherwise know as adrenaline, is secreted by the adrenal medulla in response to stress. It stimulates autonomic nerve action, which is why a rise is heart rate was observed."
