The gateway hypothesis essentially maintains that there are progressive, sequential stages to involvement with drug use (Kandel, 2002). Drug use that usually starts with legal drugs of tobacco and alcohol progresses to marijuana, and from marijuana to illicit drugs heroin, methamphetamines and cocaine. If an individual started legal drug usage at an early age of adolescence, there is an increased risk of that individual advancing into using more dangerous and illegal drugs (Kandel, 2002). However, it does not mean that all individuals using legal drugs progress to illegal drug abuse.

So there are four types of leaders: thought leaders who always channel their efforts in the right direction to make a reality of ideas. Another type of leaders is courageous leaders. They try hard not to let hurdles block their path to success. They are focused on their mission, vision, and values. Inspirational leaders belong to the third type. Their call ...

The St. Louis Arch is a large commemorative sculpture located on the west bank of the Mississippi. Its form is an inverted, weighed cantenary curve (Grigonis, 2011). A centenary curve is the shape that a chain forms if it is allowed to hang from the two ends by its own weight. In order to replicate the curve of the St. Louis Arch, the links in the middle chain must be of lighter weight than the links at the end of the chain, thus the curve is described as “weighted.” The designer, Eero Saarinen, chose this type of curve to give the ...

Studies have proved the stepping-stone theory, i.e. from simple addiction to “hard core” addiction, which is similar to gateway theory. Some users used canabis or marijuana as a “gateway” or substitute for alcohol, and those who used medical canabis were former canabis users. Charlton (as cited in Reiman, 2009) indicated that substitution with substances was used by some users to address the problem of alcohol addiction, but further using harder drugs for self-medication. Alcohol and tobacco have been regarded “soft” drugs and are used as “gateway” to “harder” ones. The stepping stone suggests that it is a progression (from ...

The construct of free will was studied and it was determined that the theory of undefined free will has conventionally been rejected and/or neglected in the theory of counseling and in the field of psychology; however, in the moral arena, the freedom of self-determinism and freedom of indeterminate free will are mutually exclusive concepts. From another perspective, indeterminate free will can also be perceived to be unidirectional, acting in the direction of self-violating, negative behavior, leading to immoral behavior (Wilks & Ratheal, 2011). Whenever an individual becomes self-absorbed, there is not consideration for anyone else even if that self-absorbed individual ...

Many historical recordings document the lives of people who have lived the life that our greatest example, Jesus Christ, spoke that a Christian should live. Many of these people have been leaders. Some have shown themselves not full of avarice, or greed, in keeping with Christ’s rebuke from the scriptures of Luke, and have shown no interest in making the house of God a “den of thieves” (Biblegateway, 2016).

On the other side, those who argue vehemently against the drug do so for the same reason, bringing up studies and, at times, propaganda that incites viewers to realize just what cost ...

The case of legalizing medical marijuana is among the most debated arguments. Oncologists have recommended marijuana therapy for patients according to Harvard study 1991.

Research Essay on the story "Behind the Law"

According to Jean-Paul Sartre, no God is responsible for creating human beings in tune with a conceptual divination. In his work on existentialism, Sartre wrote, “Existence precedes essence” (Jill, p.6). This basically means that each of us human beings has their philosophy about life. That what we are or become in life is due to the personal choices we make in our lives. We are wholly in charge of our lives, and we cannot just follow the choices and thoughts of others blindly and let them define our lives. Essentially, we define ourselves through our attitudes and perceptions we have ...

In essence, Menand believed there are two equally valid uses for education, encapsulated in two theories: one in which college is a gateway to a future career and financial rewards, and one where college is meant to be an avenue for learning and bettering oneself as a learner and ...
