Number of words: 1230 - Number of pages: 5.... children from going to school (Corder 27). It is common knowledge that any child who constantly moves around will not be able to attend school on a regular basis, and even if they go to a school when they get a chance they will be so far behind they would have a difficult time catching up. Another factor that impeded on a child’s attendance at school was the fact that they never went to school when there was cotton to be picked (Walker 8). This may not seem like a large task, but some times it could take weeks to pick all the cotton. These few weeks that a child spent picking cotton was .....

justice regime in place."
The Juvenile Delinquent's Act was the predecessor of the Young

Already the young Adolf could envision himself in such a position.

Number of words: 807 - Number of pages: 3.... than realistic. The First Amendment remained a set of
ideals which were not to be carried out during its first century, then
progressed to more realistic terms during its latter half of utilization.

Number of words: 348 - Number of pages: 2.... goods they
needed.
The South's most important advantage was that it had only to defend
relatively short interior lines against invaders who had to deal with long
lines of communication and to attack a broad front. The Confederacy also
had no need to divert fighting men to tasks such as garrisoning captured
cities and holding conquered territory.
In a short war, numerical superiority would not have made much of a

psychological as well as a physical weapon. During the closing years of the
conflict, Union armies, .....

Bias In Printmedia
Number of words: 874 - Number of pages: 4.... the reader an approximation, but not an exact number. This is used to make the reader think that the statistic is very high. Another article in The Toronto Star, “Tamil health crisis probed”, on October 29, 1999,demostrates bias by saying, “ At least 70,000 people”.

This type of bias is often used in print media to make an article more important than it is.
Bias through word choice and tone is often used in print media sources. .....

Drug Prohibition
Number of words: 808 - Number of pages: 3.... streets become battlegrounds for competing dealers because a
particular block or corner can rake in thousands of extra dollars a day. Should
drugs be legalized, the price would collapse, and so would the drug-related
motivations to commit crime. A pack of cocaine becomes no more dangerous to
carry than a pack of cigarettes. The streets would be safer to walk, as
criminal drug dealers are pushed from the market.
Legalization would also deflate prison overcrowding. Out of 31,346

single category, 9487. By leg .....
