.... of paying the teachers and staff for one full year instead of for 180 days work." ( Sevetson 2). "Teachers currently make an average of $37, 000 in the United States. However, the costs would increase to $53, 000 to keep the teachers for a full year." (Somerby 8). Currently, a district uses a lot of its budget on paying teachers.

.... a second felony offender to concurrent terms of five years and one year respectively. It was a unanimous decision based on the law and facts to be convicted of attempted criminal trespass in the second degree and dismissing that count of the indictment. The evidence was legally sufficient to support the defendant's conviction of attempted burglary in the second degree. The verdict was not against the weight of the evidence. The jury rejected the defendant's explanation for his conduct. They believed that he tried to enter the premises with criminal intent, but the evidence was insufficient to support the conviction of criminal trespass in the second degree. This was be ....

.... to women interactions were observed. The main part of the study was done in shopping malls, cafeterias, and at bus stops, with ages ranging from fifteen to about thirty-five years old. Men to men interactions are the strangest, for men seem to not want to touch one another at all. For example, If a man is sitting on a bench at a bus stop and another man comes and sits down next to him, they will never touch. Not even friends at a bus stop touch, except for the very occasional high-five or handshake. In cafeterias, they sit sown as far away from each other as possible, and they talk without looking at their friend or moving towards them. Shopping malls are a different story ....

.... American religion is Emile Durkheim. As shown in this religion, Durkheim analyzed initiation rites that consisted of long ceremonies that would take a person from the profane world into the world of the scared (Durkheim). Since the idea of entering the sacred world was such a special occasion, proper rituals were enacted. The Native Americans focused extensively on rituals in joining a specific culture or tribe, involving the whole community and bringing everyone together throughout the area.

.... of nationalism often follow the path of conflict or revolution. In this context, it may be difficult for one to believe that nationalist sentiment can be portrayed without eventually leading to some type of political or armed conflict. However, an alternative vehicle for nationalist sentiment does exist and it is an example that most people often overlook. Most people would regard this example as an idea that is too innocent to actually carry the task of fueling nationalist ideals. For the past six decades, sport has been used as a vehicle to help fuel the ideas of nationalism . The meaning of athletic competition is often overlooked and when taking examples of athleti ....

Especially since offenders only serve one third of their sentenced prison terms. What lesson are they learning with less prison time and no substance abuse counseling?

.... used for education, research, professional learning, public service, and business. The costs of setting up and maintaining Internet access are varied and changing. Lets take a look at some of the costs of setting up Internet service in a typical school. First comes the hardware. Hardware required is generally a standard Windows-based PC or Macintosh and a 14.4 Kbs or higher modem. This will cost about $1000 apiece. If the average school has 50 classrooms, already the cost has risen to $50,000 per school, for only one connection per classroom. Next you need actual Internet service. For 24-hour connections expect to pay $100 or more per month, per account. If a schoo ....
