Abstract
This paper presents an examination of the rules and ethics governing journalists revealing sources. The paper explores cases in which journalists were ordered to reveal sources and refused. It also examines the protections that journalists have from revealing sources and argues that it is those protections that provide the ability to bring the public the news.

From the Paper
"Part of the problem involves the legality of a government official leaking information to the press that should have fallen under their confidentiality agreement. The leaks are at times criminal offenses on the part of the official who provided the information and the demand to have the journalist reveal that name is so that person can be charged. If the journalist doesn't reveal the source there is no way of knowing it if was in fact a government official or other person who had a confidentiality agreement. It is ironic that journalists are jailed for not helping someone jail an official who helps bring corruption to public light."

From the Paper
"Wind Energy is also a current source of electricity for millions of people. (Blackburn, 1987) Utilities can use the energy from the wind to propel vessels or to pump water. (Blackburn, 1987) wind energy is rather inexpensive especially in remote areas. (Blackburn, 1987) According to an article in the Geographical Review, wind energy is extremely efficient and is now the fastest growing source of renewable energy. (Pasqualetti 2000) Blackburn (1987) asserts that wind energy can produce energy for a cost of 12-15? per kilowatt hour before tax benefits come into consideration. (Blackburn, 1987)"

Abstract
This analytical research paper explores in intricate detail, the following question: How should we read primary sources? This question gives rise to various other questions that are dormant behind the layers of concepts and aspects related to reading and analyzing the information coming from the primary sources. For instance, do primary sources speak for themselves? How should we read them literally so as not to obscure their original meanings? Or do we need to read them in other ways? What role does an understanding of a source's author and his or her audiences play in our reading? What about authorial motivations, perspectives, agendas and purposes?

"Multilateral Aid Sources are those organisations that are a combination of government co-operation and financing, such as the United Nations, or the European Union. These organisations will then in turn identify the priority cases for funding in accordance with their set criteria. Multilateral sources gain their money from a multitude of bilateral sources, and also fund projects directly, on occasions"

Sources of Theology, 2002.
A personal review of a study of theology and its sources.
2,957 words (approx. 11.8 pages), 2 sources, MLA, $ 87.95

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper offers a look at different traditions and perspectives which rely upon varied sources of theology. It provides an insight into the author's own personal theological exploration, using a model of the sources of theology known as the "three C's" -corporate, cognitive, and charismatic elements involved in developing a theological stance. The writer asks many important questions, such as "What does it mean to be a human being? What does it mean to be in relationship to God?
From the Paper
"Certainly that has changed over time. My early theological formulations depended upon what I learned in church. I absorbed what I was taught, accepted it unequivocally, and represented God as I believed that God was represented by the authorities in my life. The corporate element was really the only element involved. This fits into the model of faith development described by Fowler and others, but it is inadequate for most people, and in many denominations. Those ask us to do more thinking for ourselves, and engage in more direct involvement with the material of the church in order to make it one's own."

Abstract
In this paper the author examines the rights and wrongs involved in revealing the true identity of the birth mother of an adopted child.He considers both sides of the discussion for and against in revealing the truth and how it can effect all the parties involved. The paper highlights all of the important emotional and medical issues that are at hand here and concludes with the importance of telling the truth to prevent further problems.
From the Paper
" There is obviously an emotional attachment or detachment to the idea of identifying and even meeting one's birth mother. Some are surely angry, even though their adoptive parents have been to them what their biological mother could not provide. Often the first bitter question is "Why did you get rid of me?" To others, the sardonic display of cold emotion would surely presage the sort of remark "My living parents obviously care enough about me to give me things you didn't want to."

Abstract
This paper attempts to analyze the economic situation of current oil resources, the principles of supply and demand and the need for alternate energy as emphasized by President Bush. The paper discusses how if we want global economic stability, the energy sector requires due attention. The rising demand for oil, its increasing prices and possible depletion of oil resources demand alternative energy sources. The paper contends that other countries should join the US in pushing for economic betterment of their countries and the world in general.
Outline:
Energy Scenario in US and Bush Administration
Economy of Energy Sector
Demand for Energy
Supply of Energy
Demand and Supply Equation
Oil Peak and Search for Alternative Sources
Conclusions
From the Paper
"President Bush has started giving more importance to alternate energy sources. In order to emphasize the need for alternate energy sources he toured advanced energy technology companies in Wisconsin and Michigan. He talked about different energy sources and new options like nuclear energy, solar power and a hybrid gas-electric car. "Overall, Bush's 2007 energy plan calls for a 22% increase in clean-energy research at the Department of Energy. It seeks to invest more in low-pollution coal-fired power plants, solar and wind technologies and nuclear energy" (Benedetto, 2006)."

Abstract
The paper states that, in light of the effects of global warming,
it presents the case for alternative energy sources, which are becoming popular. both because they do not contribute greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, and also because they are less expensive for the most part than electricity produced by coal, oil and gas. The paper reviews the positives and the negatives for wind energy, and discusses in depth the reasons why solar energy and biomass energy sources are very attractive and offer consumers practical ways to spend less on heating and cooling homes.

Conclusion
From the Paper
"The Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC), among the most visible and powerful advocacy and conservation organizations in the U.S. (www.nrdc.org), explains that currently California has the most wind power generation in America. Texas ranks second on the list of states with wind power, with "about half" of the wind plants that California has. The good news for consumers is that the cost of wind energy now is competitive with new coal-fired or gas-fired power plants, NRDC reports. Indeed the cost of wind energy has come down "85 percent in the past 20 years," according to the U.S. Department of Energy.
Wind of course is free, and it blows significantly, consistently, hard enough to turn rotors of windmills and produce reliable electricity in about one-fourth of the land area of the U.S., the UCS explains. The NRDC points out that windmills can be built "in a fraction of the time it takes to construct coal or natural gas power plants." Moreover, it takes just three to eight months for a windmill farm to "recoup its investment in building and installation" (NRDC). Why are windmill farms needed? About 68% of the energy produced in the U.S. today, the NRDC explains, comes from "burning polluting fossil fuels." Nuclear power plants and hydropower produce the rest, "with only a fraction coming from clean, renewable sources such as the wind, the sun, underground steam and biomass." But in 15 states laws have been passed that require power companies to produce "a percentage of electricity from renewable sources." In some states, like Texas for example, consumers can choose "Green Pricing" on their utility bills; that means the electricity that family uses will be exclusively from wind power, or other renewable sources. Meanwhile, in some countries, like Denmark, windmills have been put to use in massive numbers. According to the magazine www.Scandinavica.com, fully 20% of all the electricity in Denmark comes from wind energy."

Abstract
This paper discusses the different types of alternate energy sources. There are three reasons for the U.S. to find alternate energy sources: cost, dependence on the Mid East, and the environment. This paper discusses the importance of both home and automobile alternate energy sources. The U.S. has offered incentives for different companies to work on finding these sources.
From the Paper
""At some plants, electric and fuel costs alone can be reduced by more than 30 percent -- $200 million in one case - by taking advantage of smarter procurement methods already available but underutilized" (Industrial Energy, 3005, 27). These statistics are something that many businesses must consider with the fear of higher and higher energy costs. America has been warned on the news that natural gas prices can go up as high as 70 percent this winter. "But now, with natural gas rising to more than $7 per million BTUs and eastern coal up to $60 per ton, average U.S. electricity prices, by state, now range from 5 cents to 16 cents per kilowatt hour (kwh)" (Carey, Aston, Hibbard, and Grover, 2005, 36). Recently, the news warned that gasoline prices could go up as high as $5.00 a gallon during the Katrina crisis."

Abstract
This paper examines how energy is the vital force powering business, manufacturing, and the transportation of goods and services to serve the American and world economies and how, if we don?t do something, there could be a problem. It looks at how we can?t continue to rely on fossil fuels as we do today because of their limited supplies and how we need to find new, renewable, and alternative energy sources. It analyzes the technologies, such as hydropower, hydrogen and fuel cells, geothermal, and biomass, and shows how we need to decide what we are going to do to change our ways and help preserve the world we love.
From the Paper
"The last predominate renewable energy source is from water or what is called hydropower. We can harness one of the earth?s most predominate resources to our advantage and create clean renewable energy. According to the Alternative Energy Institute, ?There are several favorable features of hydropower. Anywhere sufficient rain falls, there will be rivers. If a particular section of river has the right terrain to form a reservoir, it may be suitable for dam construction. Once the system has been installed, no fossil fuels are required to produce the electricity, and the earth?s hydrologic cycle naturally replenishes the ?fuel? supply (Alternative Energy Institute)."
