School Uniforms
.... concentrate on their schoolwork and would help school officials detect intruders who come unwelcome into the school.
As a result, many local communities are deciding to adopt school uniform policies as part of an overall program to improve school safety and discipline. California, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Louisiana, Maryland, New York, Tennessee, Utah and Virginia have enacted school uniform regulations. Many large public school systems including Baltimore, Cincinnati, Dayton, Detroit, Los Angeles .....

There is only one type of Tamil school in Malaysia and they are the government ones. Tamil schools are very much like the Malay schools with the exception that all lessons except English and Malay are in Tamil .....

Sci-fi Gibberish Or A Glance A
.... literature. Its literary form is not the essence. As a famous psychologist Carl Gustav Jung has put in his works, a myth is like a mirror, reflecting the messages sent by our subconsciousness to our mind, projecting them through the cells of our mental network and translating them from the language of the archetypal symbols to the individual tongue of one's soul.
So, treating science fiction as gibberish would be a bit far-fetched. The problem, which it really faces is that sci-fi as any branch of mytho .....

Self Reliance
.... your points can destroy you if the sense of justice and reason is misled. Similarily Antigone Creon listened only to himself and by that he destroyed people who were close to him. Personally, I stand behind the ideas that I believe in. But sometimes, being stubborn as I am, I create problems by trying to prove my point of view. When I argue with my father I could always agree with him, but that would not be me. Therefore, trying to prove my point of view using self reliance I might create a problem .....

Sensation And Perception
.... Gestalt principles, depth cues and perceptual constancies.
The Gestalt principles are based on the concept that we perceive objects in the simplest possible manner (Grivas et al 1996 page108), and describes how the brain organises, groups and simplifies visual stimuli.
The depth cues are signals given from a visual stimulus (secondary cues), or from our own visual system (primary cues). These cues help us to perceive distance and depth, and can be either monocular (requiring only one eye) or bin .....

Serach Engines
.... by mostly advertisement. You can track stock quotes and mutual funds in real-time.
The next portal to look at is Excite, which like Yahoo has a very good and easy to use directory. The one thing which caught my eye about Excite was when you typed in a search, it would just shootout a list of links, but would also show tables and images as well. You can also track stocks with a Charles Schwab module. Just like the other 2 portals you can make your own homepage. Overall, I think Excite is very sim .....

Serial Killers
.... the minds of some of the world’s most infamous killers all the while asking the question WHY. It examines methodological issues such as problems with the FBI’s so called serial murder profiling system: the fact that the serial killer stereotypes does not necessarily stand true. This paper argues that the killer is not the only one to blame for his/her actions. Together we will probe the minds of killers such as Charles Manson and John Wayne Gacy. I ask you, “Are they Murderers or Vi .....

Serial Killers --
.... p. 137). One of the most popular and well-known serial killers in history was Ted Bundy. He was convicted of killing three women but is suspected of killing thirty-six other women (Douglas, p. 137).
So what makes a serial killer? Levin points out that contrary to popular belief, serial killers don’t just “snap” or “go crazy” (Douglas, p. 137). Many of the serial killers have been the victims of childhood abuse. Jack Levin stated “Research shows many serial ki .....

Setting Priorities
.... One problem being promoted as an office manager is that she wasn't promoted by how well she did her own work but by her popularity of the company. A previous manager thought she could help out the company to improve morale but it really wasn't as good as it should have been. The manager that was just promoted had no time to think if she really wanted to become a manager or not. If she really wanted to become manager she would have gone to her boss to let her know she was interested in getting a higher .....

Sex In Society
.... reflected the world's (i.e. men's) image of them; how well their personal performance matched male expectations." As English Canadians began to develop an identity in 19th century society, they mirrored the "ideals" for women of the Victorian period: gentility, weakness, ignorance and submissiveness. (Zaremba, 1974, p. i ) These individual roles, as described by Oneill and Leone in Male/Female Roles: Opposing Viewpoints as the relationship of a man or woman to society on the basis of gender, became ess .....

Sex On Television
.... character, Lucy Ricardo. This seems like an easy task to TV viewers today, but the rules for television content were so strict at that time that they could not even use the word “pregnant” on the air. These kinds of standards continued, not just through the fifties but the sixties as well.
The seventies were a little different however. A television show that aired on CBS in 1971, was part of a new type of sitcom that advanced sexual content to what at that time seemed extreme to a lot of pe .....

Sex On The Net
.... have been exposed to it from an early age and it has become an addiction like smoking or drinking. Part of the problem is that censorship laws are not enforced. Some newsagents will sell a twelve-year-old, pornography, (legal age of 18) but will not sell them a packet of cigarettes (legal age of 16 until June 1994). The obvious derivative from this statement is that fines and punishments for selling pornography to underage persons are not high enough. So why don't we raise them? The answer to this questio .....

Sex, Prostitution, And The Pen
.... and abolitionists took a few steps toward stopping prostitution. They tried eliminating sanitary regulations that authorized prostitution. Reformers argued that halting the sex trade would prevent prostitutes and those associated with them from participating in a criminal act under the law. But after many years of trying to prevent prostitution officials agree that their plan was inefficient and ineffective. Even experience and statistics demonstrated that. The main reasons that officials intervene in .....

Sharing

"Hi Julie, I'm Dr. Ramblin, and I'll be performing this little procedure for you today," the doctor greeted as he came into the room.
"Hi," I replied. I couldn't think of anything else interesting to say.
"Have you been told about everything that's going to happen to you during this process?"
"Yes, I'm just a little nervous, but I'm ready."
"Good, then if you'll just lie down, this will only take a moment."
The doctor didn't exaggerate. Everyt .....

Shoplifting
.... how they can indirectly affect many other people.
This might sound like Bob only ate a grape or two, but the truth is that he really did steal a few grapes. He might go uncaught, but because of his taste test the prices will go up, and he will complain because he does want to more than he already does. Shoplifters may not seem to effect you and me but in reality they do.
These are the people in today's society that are stuck in stage one. They only care about themselves and they also don't think that their actions will harm any one else, but wha .....
