All Americans are afforded freedom and safety to live their lives, but unfortunately, this is not the case for the LGBT (Lesbians, Gays, Bisexual and Transgender) community, specifically speaking the use of public restrooms. It is all too common for them to endure harassment and even violence while attempting to live their lives in peace. We owe it to ourselves to discuss a way forward in public policy and our societal norms, so they do not have to continue to live in fear. The originators of our constructed surroundings have made open offices that are isolated by sexual orientation, ...

Personal is Political

Social issues that are often classified as "women's issues" such as reproductive rights, violence against women, and balancing child rearing and employment transcend the individuals and become societal concerns. "The personal is public" was a frequently used feminist movement of the late 1960s and early 1970's (Peters and Wolper 115). The women consciousness-raising groups that were popular during this time was not for personal support and comfort but rather a formality of public deed to evoke political change regarding domestic violence, childbearing, and unsafe working conditions(Peters and Wolper 115). Such political issues referred as "women's issues" is an ...

Because it is emerging technology, the benefits of the smart grid have not been widely documented.

Some of the activities responsible for the warming of the planet are the fueling of economic growth with fossil fuels, heavy industrial and ...

Are twenty-first-century Americans more democratic than the Founding Fathers and would the U.S. profit by adopting New Hampshire´s Constitution? Are twenty-first-century Americans more democratic than the Founding Fathers and would the U.S. profit by adopting New Hampshire´s Constitution?

After all, only a relatively small minority of Americans were eligible to vote when the country first came into being. To start off, no women were allowed to vote. Of course, slaves were not allowed to vote either, ...

Canon Doyle’s version of characterization is entwined with social issues, especially with regards to relationships. The time and the context of Doyle’s stories gives a critical, yet contrasting relationship developed between male and female partners. Thus, the concept of sexually comes in, and Doyle is keen to express this concept through his stories involving Sherlock Holmes and his acquaintances. However, this concept would hold a different social paradigm in the modern society, as Sherlock’s nature would be interpreted otherwise. Asexuality is defined in Sherlock’s stories as lack of taste, mood, or interest in women and ...

A Plan for Sustainable Tourism

As people continue to explore the world and tour it, they are increasingly becoming aware of the importance of preserving the environment as tourism ceases to exist without the environment.

Many women who are like this would be called a deviant or even a radical. Hillary Clinton, the presidential candidate for the Democratic Party, is an image for women who choose to ...

Jane Doe

There is no better example of the unethical, irrational, and questionable discussion than watching the circus of politicians’ debate during this election year in the United States. In the most recent farce by the GOP candidates in New Hampshire was quite a spectacle. One must ask where the rational, believable, and trustworthy politicians have gone, if there ever were any to begin with. However, the role that political leaders take on should involve respectable rational dialogue that can be trusted by the people who elect the officials rather than putting on a spectacle that is nearly as entertaining as ...

Revenue management involves doing something to the consumers rather than doing something for them. A number of industries have implemented the concept of revenue management in order to maximize their sales and revenues. It assists in increasing their level of competitive advantage. Any organization should have their primary goal as establishing a mutual value of a relationship between them and their customers. Consumers ordinarily perceive a certain price increase given as ‘fair’ in the event that it is a reaction due to an increased seller costs. They perceive the price increase as ‘unfair’ in the event that it is ...

The article revolves around Senate Bill 116, which addresses the concealment of firearms without a permit in New Hampshire. The bill would attempt to legally allow individuals to do this without recourse from the law. The law is essentially a push towards less strict gun control laws, in an attempt to remove restrictions on those who wish to carry their firearms in the public sector. This issue is the underlying element in the articles that present the problem in light of the legal struggles. These struggles are between those who value public safety and those who value freedom to carry firearms.

Questions over Case Study 11.1

Identify the weaknesses in each strategy. (Hint: How do you think the bond rating agencies reacted to California’s 2003 budget?) The first dangerous strategy identified was -Delay maintenance and replacement of assets—and rely on hope (Starling, 2011). The weakness of this strategy is, in addition to posing a physical threat to the people who can be harmed by these delays, poses a very real threat to the budget. More specifically, Osborn an Hutchison (2004a) note that “avoidance becomes addictive, and the real problems fester and grow, ultimately requiring even more painful solutions (p.29)” The second dangerous strategy ...
