Abstract
This paper looks at the restrictions imposed by society that women must live under. Mores specifically, the paper discusses the restrictions placed on women in education, sexuality, the workplace and the home and explains how society imposes these restrictions because of longstanding societal rules about women's roles and their behavior. The paper also looks at how these restrictions have held women back from cultural advancement.
From the Paper
"Today in US society, women are pressured to fit a certain ideal. We are expected to conform to a set of rules that have been in place in American society for decades. Even though times are changing and opportunities seem to be easier to come by for women today than in the early part of the century, women are still held down by the restrictions these perfect ideals place on them. Our role in the home and in the workplace is constrained to that which the patriarchy has for so long led us to believe is correct. These restrictions are very evident in our everyday lives, including violence against us, poor healthcare, forced sexuality, and even lower pay and less valued jobs. This evidence is what sustains the patriarchy, and thus what restricts women to remain in the positions that we have for so long fought against."

"Tourism: Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow
Yesterday's Grand Visions
Tourism, the act of paying money to go from one place to another to see different and unique sights, has been a fact of civilized life since approximately the 12th century. Of course, back in those days it was basically the upper, upper classes that had the time, the money, and the interest in travelling from one spot to another. The word "travel" by the way comes from the medieval English word "travail" which means suffering great hardship, and that is a very good description of travel in its earliest days. Much has been written about the journeys of Marco Polo, who until recently was considered the world's first tourist.
Celebrated in books, movies, musicals and television.."

Abstract
This paper examines how youth crime is increasing and how, although violent crime by juveniles is decreasing; younger juveniles account for a substantial proportion juvenile arrests and the juvenile court caseload. It looks at the history and the organization within the youth gang and the different developmental pathways to delinquency. It also discusses some of the laws effecting juvenile delinquents.
From the Paper
"It seems that as the years go by, we hear about so many crimes committed by youths. One memorable crime that comes to mind is the shooting at Columbine High School that happened on April 20, 1999 in Littleton, Colorado. Dylan Klebold and Eric Harris were associated with a group called the "trenchcoat" mafia. This group is made out of students that are an outcast from the school. When the shooting occurred, it was targeted to athletics. The athletics were popular and had great social influence at the school, which was one of the main reasons that the "trenchcoat" mafia hated. This is an example of youth gang and a horrific crime that they committed. 14 students and 1 teacher died from the shooting. It was clear that when Dylan and Eric planned for the shooting, they were going to kill all the athletics."

Abstract
This paper discusses the origins of Social Security, how it has evolved, and where it all seems to lead into the future. It explains how Social Security developed during the Great Depression and has lasted throughout the years, giving some measure of economic security to America's retired since the 1930s. Social Security has faced some hurdles, and many believe it will not last through the "Baby Boomer" escalation in retirement by 2030. It argues, however, that Social Security has endured through depression and recession and seems poised to last long into America's future.
From the Paper
"Social Security, the payment of retirement benefits to those no longer working at their primary career, is not a new idea. Thomas Paine wrote about economic security for the elderly in the 18th century, but it took American leadership until the 20th century to actually do something about retirees and their lack of income. In fact, many other countries enacted social insurance long before the United States created a program. "Germany, in fact, had put extensive social insurance systems in place in 1883, under Bismarck. In the Western Hemisphere, Uruguay was an early pioneer. Foreign examples did not, however, seem to impress Americans" (Skidmore 23). Before the 20th century, most Americans were farmers, and their economic security in their old age depended on their family (SSA)."

Should Abortion Rights Be Restricted?, 2005.
An examination of the importance of an age-restriction rule in abortion.

Abstract
The paper argues that minors receiving abortions with consent of a parent or judge is mandatory for controlling the population and maintaining a child/parent relationship. This paper also states that this law needs to be in place and enforced so that children will refrain from having sexual intercourse knowing, if they get pregnant, a parent will know. It concludes that this law is not to be used as a threat, but more as an awareness tool for parents. This will not only prohibit children from having sexual relations, but will also involve parents in their children's lives.
From the Paper
"On January 22, 1973, the United States Supreme Court legalized abortion nationwide in the case of Roe v. Wade. Roe was the Supreme Court that saw right to privacy as a constitutional right, including a woman's right to choose whether to terminate her pregnancy. Today, abortion is legal in every state for those over the age of 18, but should this right be restricted for minors? In many states, there are laws stating a minor, someone under the age of eighteen, must have parental consent or consent of a judge to obtain an abortion. Forty-three out of the fifty states have such laws, with only thirty-two enforcing them. Abortion has been on the rise since the Supreme Court legalized it."

Should Tobacco Advertising Be Restricted? Yes, 2001.
This is a persuasive paper detailing the effects of tobacco advertising on the public, primarily youths under the legal smoking age.

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper argues in favor of the restriction of tobacco advertising that targets youths under the legal smoking age. Through the use of statistics, and personal experience, the author argues the extent of the protection allowed under the First Amendment to tobacco companies and their advertisers.
From the paper:
"Some of these regulations include age verification (by sales persons), the elimination of free samples, and denial of sponsorship of social/cultural events. As it is yet too early to judge whether these newly implemented restrictions will have a great influence on youth consumers, one can only hope to see improvements soon. As I had at one time worked in a store that sold tobacco products, my opinion is that even these new regulations are not enough. Many salespeople simply do not bother to check age identification of tobacco consumers."

The Restricted Women of Shakespeare's "Othello", 2005.
Examines the characters of Desdemona and Emilia in "Othello" by William Shakespeare and argues how the violence imposed upon them by their husbands is a social statement of the women's restrained state in society.

Abstract
This essay looks at marriage as a patriarchal institution, and shows how the violence that occurs against Desdemona and Emilia in "Othello" by William Shakespeare infers the dominance that men hold over women. The essay also looks at the dominant views about femininity, as expressed by Iago, and shows how these stereotypes dictate the fate of Desdemona and Emilia.
From the Paper
"Othello uses words like "greedy" and "devour" to illustrate how Desdemona hungered for him and chased after him. Othello does fear Desdemona will leave him once her curiosity is quenched, as he expresses through lines "She loved me for the dangers I had passed. And I loved her that she did pity them" (I.iii 165-167). In these lines, Othello shows through the use of the past tense and suggestive language that he knows Desdemona loves him for his exoticness, but that the thrill of it may soon wear off as the dangers dwindle."

Educating, Empowering and Mentoring Young Women, 2008.
A discussion about the empowerment of women to ensure equality in society.

»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper discusses how women have struggled for equality in society, though have never truly achieved it. The author mentions various women who have risen to positions of power and achievement, such as Margaret Thatcher and Mother Teresa and provides a more detailed account of Rosa Parks, the black woman who became a globally known Civil Rights leader. She concludes her paper by suggesting that more changes be introduced into society to empower and educate more women to become leaders of tomorrow.
From the Paper
"Educating, empowering and mentoring young women for leadership tomorrow sounds as though it is an idea that we may speak about, but one that in reality is too complex to achieve. This is because throughout society women have struggled for equality, though never truly achieved it; women have gained advancements, but only marginally; and women have maintained roles of leadership, though in minimal numbers as compared to men. Traditionally, women are taught to be "sugar and spice and everything nice", while males are taught that they have power over all that they survey and that their mistakes can be attributed to "boys being boys", while women are constantly reminded of Eve and that apple. So it must be asked, "how do we overcome these societal views and create an environment that supports achievement of this vast undertaking?" We begin by reflecting on history..."

All "learning" included textbooks, notebook paper, and papers which were turned into be graded by the teacher. Assignments were done independently while the teacher worked at her neat desk or walked around the room to insure silence. Information for research projects came from printed material such as encyclopedias, dictionaries, or a vertical file. Tests were given at the end of the chapter to measure what had been learned. Grade cards were single sheets with letters such as A, B, and C. The principal's office was not the place to be, and parents only came to school to pick up their child."

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper examines Article 28, while appearing relatively clear on first reading, has proved problematic and therefore produced a string of case law and discussion, which continues on today. It looks at how, in order to define the term ?measure equivalent to a quantitative restriction,? (MEQR) one needs to trace the problems and decisions arising from this issue and discusses it in three different sections. It begins with the definition of an MEQR as it stood in the cases prior to Keck and Directive 70/50 and then explores the changes created by the decision in Keck and other cases which followed this judgement. Finally, it examines decisions post Keck and the fact that they have largely regressed to the decisions taken before this case.
From the Paper
"MEQR?s can essentially be split into two categories; those that directly or indirectly discriminate against imported goods, and those that are ?indistinctly applicable? to the sphere of Article 28. In the former category, one of the bigger decisions is that of Dassonville , which continued to be used in many subsequent cases. The case concerned a Belgian law stating goods bearing a designation of origin must be accompanied by a certificate from the government of the exporting country certifying their right to that designation. Dassonville were a French company who exported Scotch Whiskey and they appealed that it would be very difficult for third party exporters to obtain such a certificate in respect of goods already in free circulation in the third country. The ECJ upheld the Dassonville appeal, stating that the law would impose a greater burden on those seeking to import goods into Belgium, and would therefore hinder free movement, and is consequently a MEQR as prohibited by the Treaty."
