Ian Brown Mr. Moran English I - Honors 12 March 2012 Year-Round Schooling Pro Rebuttal The issue of having year-round school in America or not has been going around for decades. This system is practiced throughout the world with the huge exception of many of our schools. Some claim that it doesn’t make a difference to a child’s scores, but spending more time in the classroom, with shorter but often breaks, can keep their mind refreshed. Even U.S. President Barack Obama stated that the hardships and new challenges in this emerging century “demand more time in the classroom.” Some opponents of this system say that our summer vacation is the perfect time to have a full time-off and that you won’t lose much of what you learned the previous school year. In fact, according to a study at the University of Missouri, they found that many students forgot over two and one-half months of whatever their grade-level equivalency is in mathematics.
THE DIARY OF ESTHER ABRAHAMS Dear diary, Wednesday 30th September 1786 My name is Esther Abrahams, I am 15 years old. I am in the Newgate prison, right now. I am in this prison because exactly one month ago I attempted to steal a 12 yard black lace for a local London store which would have cost 50 shillings. My trial for the case had good evidence I even had 3 eye witnesses but I guess it wasn’t enough to the jury since I've been sentenced for 7 years. It’s going to be a long and tough 7 years but I will try to do the best I can.
The enquiry led to 264 landlords being proceeded against, 74 pleaded guilty and the other cases dragged on but 222 cases were decided. This attempt at an economic and social reform showed that Wolsey did at take an interest into the problems of the poor and it showed great ambition and good intentions as it started of well. However the cases could take years to conclude and the enclosure policy was abandoned for 18 months in 1523 as Wolsey was trying to raise a subsidy to und the king’s foreign policy. This meant that even though it started well it ended badly as it didn’t really change things and it was just abandoned, which possibly shows how political concerns override his belief in reforms. The court of the Star Chamber was created by Wolsey to show justice to all.
But one thing, that I didn’t care for is that I was not a full time employee. I was a contractor meaning, I was like self employed with no benefits. Like I mentioned it was okay at first, but as time went not. I started thinking about what I wanted like more money, full time job and my own place for my own privacy. So was now looking for a full job with a large company.
CONCLUSION Being put in a team to do assignments can be very hard for some people because they may like to work alone. But if you think about it if you work in a team you can get the work done in half the time. It won’t put a strain on you worrying how can you get the work done, knowing you have to work and do other day to day things. As long as you designate who is going to be the leader and do what the leader tells you or ask you to do, the team will be fine. Just think how exciting your paper will be with all the other ideas, they may think of things you had no idea even existed.

Do the courts take into effect the juvenile’s history and home life? There are approximately 2,600 inmates serving life without parole for committing crimes as juveniles (JLC, 2012). Statistics state that this large number of inmates it makes me think about what type of crimes they committed to receive such a punishment. Do these juvenile’s now adults think that because they have no possibility of parole means they should be rehabilitated since they are never getting out of prison? It’s sad to think that these juveniles could turn their life around and possibly be model citizens once back out in the population.
DUI’s happen when a person has no regard for the rules or regulations of their state or the safety and well being of fellow citizens. Until DUI laws are more easily enforced so that offenders are held accountable for their actions and victims receive justice, the number of occurrences will not decrease. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Association, one person is killed every 51 minutes by a DUI driver (“Impaired Driving”). Unfortunately, most of the DUI cases against defendants who hire private attorneys are either dropped or reduced to a lesser charge. Between 1992 and 2008, in 15,280 DUI cases, 64 percent of those cases were either dropped or reduced to a lesser charge
Most minimum wage workers that have lost their jobs to outsourcing absolutely cannot stand the idea whatsoever. They believe that they were working at a fine pace and their job was substantial to their income and their lives. This is where America is suffering economically
Push for P-plates until 25 Forcing young drivers to remain on probationary licenses until the age of 25 would cut Victoria's road toll, says the state's top traffic police officer. Under the move, young adults would have to drive with a zero blood alcohol level for an extra three years, or for the first seven years of solo driving. Assistant Commissioner Robert Hill, who wants the community to consider making the change, said 40 per cent of people aged 20 to 25 who were killed or injured on Victorian roads every year were victims of drink-driving. Mr. Hill said medical research showed that the brain did not develop fully until the mid-to-late 20s, particularly the part that controlled decision-making. ''What I'm advocating is a community
