Abstract
The paper discusses Johannes Kepler, a key figure in the 17th century revolution of astronomy. The paper relates that his greatest accomplishment was the explanation of the laws of planetary motion which codified the rotation and planetary motion that was carefully researched and articulated by Tyco Brahe and Aristotle. The paper explains Kepler's treatment of force and his attempts to explain planetary motion as a result of the interaction between forces.

From the Paper
"Kepler was a German born Lutheran; he principally served as a mathematician, astronomer and astrologer. His breakthrough came as a researcher and assistant for Tycho Brahe, the court mathematician for the Emperor of Austria. Brahe's careful documentation of celestial motion provided the solid data by which Kepler was able to carefully create his law of planetary motion. The reason for Kepler's popularity even in today's society is that his Laws of Planetary Motion are so widely sweeping, it accurately predicted a model that would still be true even in today's age of scientific development."

Abstract
The paper analyzes the historiography of the Enlightenment Era through the theories of Darwin, Newton, Kant, and Foucault within the constantly mutating and relativistic nature of ideas. The paper discusses how Newton's Third Law of Motion defines the effect of certain events that define history, just as Darwin was able to realize that mutations through natural selection also affect how history is interpreted.

Abstract
This paper discusses child labor laws in the United States. It starts off by discussing the history of child labor in this country and why there was a great need for reform. It also tells the reader the struggle that reformers went through to get child labor laws on the books. Next, the laws regarding child labor are discussed for today's times. The consequences of violating the laws are also mentioned.

From the Paper
"The United States government has enacted many laws and regulations over the years to protect the rights of workers in this country from unfair labor practices, employment discrimination and abuse. One of the groups of people that the government has enacted this type of legislation to protect is that of children, some of the most vulnerable workers. Throughout this paper I will examine child labor laws in the United States. I will give the background for such laws and the history of child labor in this country, including situations which created the needs for these laws. Furthermore, I will discuss how these laws have evolved over the years and what effect child labor laws have on the workplace today. Although child labor is not a big issue today as far more youth are in school than working during current times, this was not always the case."

Abstract
United Kingdom Consumer Laws and Consumer criminal Laws are meant to protect consumers against defective and unsafe products and services. They can be invoked if a consumer feels he was taken for a ride and given product or service, which did not meet his needs or was faulty in any sense. We need to understand that certain conditions apply when these laws are made use of to bring charges against a trader. For example, the nature of product or service doesn't count at all but the length of use; special seller instructions, representation of a product etc. play a dominant role in determining the exact nature of breach of contract between the seller and the consumer.

Conclusions/Recommendations

From the Paper
"Eleanor and Nicos needed to purchase a second-hand car and visited Solid Cars for this purpose. There they found a Range Rover, which was being offered for 2,000. The salesman informed them the original engine of the Rover had been replaced with a reconditioned engine. After initial discussions with the salesman, they agreed to purchase the vehicle through their debit card. The salesman however told them few things, which later proved to be incorrect and caused them several problems during test-drive."

Abstract
While attractive, English only laws cause many problems. As this paper reveals, these laws close off employment opportunities for Latinos. Similarly, they are divisive and exclusive. As well, they trample upon minority rights. Ultimately, legislators should focus on other approaches. In particular, improved ESL learning is the best way to go. Another approach might be to encourage Spanish language instruction in high schools. In any case, English-only laws are draconian and simply cause unneeded tension.

Abstract
This paper discusses the various sodomy laws that invade people's privacy and govern what they can and cannot do in the bedroom. It states the weird laws in some states, with even life in prison punishments for sodomy. Sodomy laws prohibit oral and anal sex between consenting adults. It includes tables and charts containing historical data about sodomy laws in the United States.

From the Paper
"Many hold the opinion that in a free society, consenting adults should not be put in jail unless they physically harm the person or property of another. The government, however, feels that it has an obligation to protect the people from the use various acts. By making and upholding laws that make these acts illegal, the government goes so far as to govern the bedrooms of American citizens with sodomy or crimes against nature laws. This paper will examine the origin of sodomy laws, their restrictions, their proliferation, and the people's right to privacy. Origin Sodomy laws generally prohibit oral and anal sex, even between consenting adults. The exact origin of sodomy laws is not clear, but they probably stem from religious and historical beliefs about sexuality and sodomy. "

Abstract
This paper discusses the labor laws relevant to the guarantee of a non-discriminatory work environment. It focuses on how labor laws are applied within the labor union environment in protecting against discrimination. It explains that the labor laws in the United States are primarily governed by the U.S. Department of Labor which oversees approximately 180 various laws and regulations governing employment.

From the Paper
"Labor laws in the United States are overseen by the Department of Labor which, collectively, oversees approximately 180 various federal labor oriented laws. This body of laws and regulations oversee many workplace activities relevant to more than 10 million unique employers and more than 125 million unique employees. The following major labor laws constitute some of the most broadly applicable and well-known labor laws. Additionally, since unions constitute some the largest forces in labor across North America, labor laws pertinent to unions are also discussed. However, it should be mentioned that regardless of union membership, union members are, of course, entitled to the same protections on the existing body of labor laws that any employee is as well as a host of other protections vis-?vis his or her union contract. Pay & Schedule The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) outlines the standards for wages and overtime pay, which affect most private and public employment in ..."

Abstract
The following paper outlines US aviation gun laws as they existed prior to 9/11 and how they stand today in the age of Homeland Security and global terrorism. The paper then examines the legal issues involved in changing America's gun aviation laws in the aftermath of the brutal attacks of 9/11. From there, the paper looks carefully at how the transformation of America's aviation gun laws profoundly changed the traveling experience of ordinary Americans. Finally, this paper summarizes the pertinent legal issues and it concludes with an explication of why the recently-enacted gun laws are not only permissible, but entirely desirable.

Abstract
This paper discusses the need to keep children safe from sexual predators today, which includes the use of Community Notification Laws to inform the public when sex offenders move into a neighborhood or region. The paper further points out that these laws may include direct notification of people in a neighborhood or more general notification by posting names and addresses on a website accessible by all. The paper concludes by stating that such laws can help reduce the incidence of sexual abuse of children by putting parents on notice so they can take greater care, though such an approach is not a panacea and will not completely eliminate the threat, only reduce it.

From the Paper
"Keeping children safe from sexual predators today includes the use of Community Notification Laws to inform the public when sex offenders move into a neighborhood or region. II. The argument for notification is clear--parents want to protect their children from potential harm by knowing that sex offenders are nearby so they can warn their children and take extra precautions. III. This approach has been extended to other violent felons as well. IV. Another provision in the federal crime bill was a national registration network to track convicted pedophiles. V. Even those who support notification laws may admit that the act of..."
