... however, there is a national speed limit set on commercial vehicles. So, any state is allowed to set the speed limit to what they want and "any state" means Virginia State also. The Virginia State speed limit should be lifted from all interstate and state highways. The fact is the speed limit, which is set at 55 miles per hour around the area, causes many problems and traffic. The traffic in the Washington, DC metropolitan area is one of the worst in the United States. Especially on highway 66 where there is always a lot of traffic because people are worried about going the right speed due to all the highway patrol on the road. So, taking this into consider ...
... is received, the application goes through several processes. First, an establishment case manager reviews the paperwork and has appointments with both parties involved. Once the order is established, through the case manager or child support court, the case goes to an enforcement case manager. This person is responsible for enforcing the child support order by maintaining contact with the absent parent, securing employment information, address, etc. If an individual fails to comply with the order, another process begins. The case is referred to the legal department for enforcement. Paperwork issued from the court is mailed to the individual requiring them to appear ...
... been injured and probably will not be able to play hockey for the rest of the season. Also a reason why I think professional athletes should receive such high salaries is that the athlete will not be playing the sport that they play for the rest of their life. Most athletes retire after the age of forty. And if that person does not have any skills, other than sports, then they need a way of support financially. Look at John Elway he retired this year. John Elway's wife has cancer and if John was not paid the high salary that he was paid he would not be able to pay for his wife's cancer treatment. The last reason why I think professional athletes should receive such ...
... it. In the last three decades the nuclear countries club has expanded. The original threatening four have now been joined by China (with a Communist dictatorship), India, Pakistan (with a very unstable political/governmental system), Israel and South Africa. When the Soviet Union fell apart, all the republics sent their nuclear weapons to Russia. However, there is no proof that the new countries that were formed and now have dictatorships, such as Belaruse (which used to have nuclear weapons), Khazakstan and even Ukraine gave up all of their nuclear weapons. At least they could still have the technology that would enable them to produce those weapons. Another iss ...
... outburst of violence, once enacted, puts an end to any future events of this type for that individual. While the mass killer may kill many people in one attack, when the attack is over, their mission is complete. The mass killer's victims may not be chosen for any other reason than being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Serial killers are a totally different and more dangerous threat to society. They may not kill many people at one time, but they may kill for many years without being detected. They are able to kill again and again without being caught because they are careful in their choices of victims. They typically pick victims who are vulnerable ...
... that should stay illegal in order to preserve morality. Parents do not want their children to grow up thinking that is acceptable. Worse yet, parents do not want to hear their children say, "When I grow up, I want to be a prostitute." Christianity also looks down upon because according to their beliefs, the act of sex is only to be done when a man and a women are in love and married. Monogamy is to be practiced in the marriage, and any violation of this is considered a sin. Another reason why the preservation of morality is so important is that people's morals shape the future of a nation. Many people feel that if is legalized, then its long term effects wou ...
... a land deal. Some of the other key players were William Ginsburg and Bob Bennet, who both supported their clients. William Ginsburg for Lewinsky and Bennet for Clinton. Al Gore is the vice president who might run for office in the year 2000. Linda Tripp taped some of Monica Lewinsky’s phone messages. Paula Jones filed a sexual harassment report against Clinton. It all started about fourteen months ago when Monica Lewinsky, a young intern in the White House, said she had an affair with President Clinton. On January 26, Clinton told the world that he did not have a sexual relationship with Monica Lewinsky. Soon after that the whole United States of Amer ...
... minority, the Ladinos, many of which are descended from the Spanish colonists. Beginning in 1954, when Guatemala's elected government was overthrown by the army, the military began a brutal war against the Indian people. This type of torture and oppression continued, and during the 1970's the repression was especially harsh; during this time more and more Indians began to resist. It was during this time that Rigoberta Menchu's family became involved in the resistance. The situation in Guatemala is similar to South Africa, where the black majority are ruled with absolute power by the white minority. Like South Africa, the Indians in Guatemala are lacking in ...
... applied. If the definition is applied further in the means of consequences; the would affect the pledges as well as the actives. These consequences, when applied to the actives, would deter from further practices. These consequences would have to be as sever as 180 days up to two years in jail and $1,000 to $10,000 in fines. The acts of senseless abuse and misjudgement must be prevented in future instances. More organizations such as CHUCK (the Coalition to Halt Useless College Killings) are a must in colleges, universities, schools, and in communities to promote awareness to this subject. The more knowledge that is shared; the more ramifications will be known and ...
... life forms, for example, high school teachers, one may encounter barriers such as cruelty and insensitivity, with the utterance of statements like, "Think with your head straight!" or, "You have a brain, use it." Yet these are all true, there are still many advantages to stupidity. The first advantage is very easy to understand. Stupid people are never asked to do a lot. Many have noticed that people tend to steer away from someone they feel may be stupid. This is for a very good reason. The stupidity which they posses makes a name for themselves, a name which can be very difficult to shake. Possibly, it is a word which describes the working habits of the person ...
