Number of words: 973 - Number of pages: 4.... community. In some communities, the police ignore
many children who are accused of minor delinquencies or refer them directly to
their parents. But in other communities, the police may refer such children to
a juvenile court, where they may officially be declared delinquents. Crime
statistics, though they are often incomplete and may be misleading, do give an
indication of the extent of the delinquency problem. The FBI reports that

Mark Schaller's Study About Fame
Number of words: 1452 - Number of pages: 6.... these three people is that they all had self- destructive tendencies in the forms of drugs and alcohol and also had psychological problems sometime during their period of fame.

Argumentative Essay: Should Women Be Allowd To Go Topless In Public
Number of words: 866 - Number of pages: 4.... thing that we know about this stranger is what we see
of them the first time we meet. We all are aware of the sayings
"Preppy","Jockish","Skater","Sluty" etc. This final saying, “Sluty” is
interpreted by 90 percent of North Americans as a tight skirt and tight tank top

new version of a “Slut” and a girl that wants it.

son when he sees a half nude woma .....

Civilize The Wilderness
Number of words: 516 - Number of pages: 2.... lives today.
Without it, we would not have computers, fax machines, cellular phones, and all
of the modern conveniences that we have today. The fact is, that many people
believe that the wilderness is like an unborn country. A country that has
nothing and is striving to become more advanced. We see this as an opportunity
to better it and make it seem like we are actually helping. But, are we really
helping? In my opinion, no. I feel that we are destroying something natural
and something of beauty.
In many ways we are making the wilderness worse by civilizing it. We
put unnatur .....

Sex Discrimination
Number of words: 2645 - Number of pages: 10.... in the U.K.
Sex discrimination means that a person gets treated in a less favorable
manner because of their sex. A good example of this is to take two fictional
