One of the countries that faced great difficulty was Yugoslavia. First the integrity of this country was hugely questioned. The nation functioned as an unstable assemblage of people of various ethnic groups. These include Croats, Serbs, and Bosnian Muslims. The country eventually split into various competing factions. Serbia and ...

The United States Constitution did not originally have a Bill of Rights, but during the time when the Constitution was being written, the Founding Fathers were very concerned about the potential for individual rights' abuse by the government. Some of the Founding Fathers were against the addition of a Bill of Rights to the Constitution, but eventually, the concern about the government using its power to abuse the rights of citizens won out over the fear of not giving the government enough power (Cuddihy). The first ten amendments to the United States Constitution were added and are now called the Bill ...

The movement from sites of waste-disposal of contaminated groundwater is a problem faced by many cities in world. Solid and liquid waste dumped in landfills generates an atmosphere where inorganic and organic compounds present in the water or which are produced in the landfill become prone of entering the hydrological regime through movement. The movement of contaminants in water bodies through landfills is more distinct in temperate and humid climates as penetration of rainfall is moderate to high, and separation of leachate from the aquifers which are underlying for extended time periods becomes a complex process. In such areas, landfills gets ...

A hypervisor is a computer application that allows computers to run more than one operating system. Thus takes place through a process known as virtualization.

Introduction

One in every 10 Mexicans resides in United States. Mexican-born immigrants account for 29.8% of all foreign born immigrants in United States (Bean & Gillian 2003). This means they are the largest immigrant community in United States.

Shortly after the terrorist attacks in New York City and Washington, D.C. on September 11, 2001, Congress passed the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act. As a result of real concerns over the security of the nation as well as more than a little mass hysteria over America’s vulnerability in the new age of global terror, the 342-page long USA PATRIOT Act, as it is popularly known, sailed through Congress a mere 45 days after the attacks with little debate or analysis but with broad bipartisan support. Indeed, in the Senate, the ...

Unstable nuclei give rise to radioactive isotopes. Although there is a general belief that these isotopes are because of human activities quite a number occur naturally. Most of the radiations that we receive on earth have natural sources. The cosmic rays originate from space and other radioactive isotopes and we expose ourselves to daily. The most significant aspects of these radiations are their ability to transmit energy in terms of waves. The various forms of radiations include the visible light, radio waves and microwaves, which do not have to carry with them enough energy to ionize. Ionizing radiations are the ones, ...

For instance, China is among the nations that have experienced an increase in motor vehicle activities which call for more use of fossil fuel. Fossil fuel has and ...

Physical Security can be described as “the measures taken to protect systems, buildings, and the related supporting infrastructure against threats that are associated with the physical environment” (Krutz & Vines, 2004). Over the past few decades, the significance, magnitude and consequence of security and risk management have been brought before the world over and again in a number of conditions related to health, terrorist activities, and natural disasters. When one turns the pages of history, it is rather obvious that a lack of planning and absence of resources due to unpreparedness makes it difficult for the concerned authorities to manage an ...

This is a clear violation of the ethical need to comply with government regulation, which businesses are expected to do. By creating CompCARE and shuffling off the product to them, creating a hasty renovation and shifting of resources, the goal was to prevent the FDA from being able ...

1 Samuel is one of the oldest documented writings and it belongs thematically with 2 Samuel. In some editions they are known as first two Books of the Kingdoms, thus leaving 1 and 2 Kingdoms as third and fourth books in this sequence. This is a very logical connection, since all the four books describe chronological events of the years preceding and following the establishment of the Jewish kingdom as an institution. Functionally 1 Samuel is a book of the Prophets (the other two being Law and Writings). This fact tells us that 1 Samuel is not only a historical book, describing ...

Introduction

Perhaps no clause in the U.S. constitution has been so misconstrued and debated as the Second Amendment. In fact, even the Supreme Court could not make up their mind as to the true meaning of “A well-regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed”. A decisive interpretation to this clause has been quite elusive. Since its ratification, only a few cases have found its way to the Supreme Court while the court’s decision has not helped clarify the matter more than being ...
