... been there myself, but being the well-informed traveler that I was, I had read the many travel books on the subject and decided such was a place that I must visit, perhaps get lost in. I was in for a shock, however, when I finally reached my destination, for not only was it the most fabulous department store as far as clothing was concerned, it was the best department store for…well, pets (yes actual dogs, cats and birds), espresso machines, movies, books, wedding gowns, and even to arrange one's funeral.

... sheep named Dolly had been cloned from an adult cell (Reilly 289). Less than a year after Wilmut’s discovery, the physicist Richard Seed said in a radio interview that he is planning to set up a private clinic for cloning human beings (Stock 61).

For example, it would take 34 years to pay off a $2500 balance if a person just paid the banks suggested minimum payment. The middle class is also going further into debt. Credit card de ...

... is accounted for in the woman’s right to privacy. However, he also contends that the state has a right to protect potential life, and this interest becomes compelling at the point of viability. Until a pregnant single woman, by the fictional name of Jane Roe, challenged the Texas criminal abortion law, the decision whether or not to terminate the pregnancy was left entirely up to the State. Justice Blackmun, along with six other justices, argued that the decision to abort should be available to the woman-but only up to a certain point during the pregnancy. In order to decide when the decision should fall from the woman’s hands to the States, ...

The cases of hand grenades are lightweight because troops carry these small bombs and throw them at the enemy. Most time bombs are built according to the circumstances and concealed next to their target. They may consist of explosives and a timer in a cardboard box or some other inconspicuous casing. Without fins to stabilize them in flight, bombs would be almost impossible to aim. The fins transform a bomb from an unstable nonspinning projectile into a stable spinning weapon that travels through the air like a bullet. There are two types of bomb fuzes. An impac ...
