How A Lack Of Representation In Media Is Harmful To College Students Where Am I? How A Lack Of Representation In Media Is Harmful To College Students Sunahtah Jones (USF) Want more HC? User Login Content: However, lack of representation has extremely adverse effects on the community, especially youth like college students. The reason why a lack of representation is not important to many is because it is heavily normalized and plays a large role in the oppression of marginalized groups for several reasons. According to a study by Indiana University, it was found that the representation of minorities in the media is very scarce, however, when racial minorities are placed in a role, they are often placed in a role that perpetuates racial stereotypes. This depiction of people who identify with racial minority groups is extremely harmful because it lowers self-esteem, and perpetuations racial discrimination and stereotypes as well. The study also found the self-esteem of all youth, except white boys, is lowered by the harmful lack of representation in media (Indiana University, 2012). For example, the film Exodus: Gods and Kings, with famous actor Christian Bale, which was released in 2014, cause extreme controversy because of its lack of representation. Although the movie was based on a biblical story based in Egypt, Africa, majority of the characters were white. All too often, stories derived from people of color are white washed in the media, this is harmful because it erases the culture and contributions of people of color, while also taking away opportunities from actors and actresses of color who can illustrate the history accurately. In addition to the lack of representation of minorities, the lack of representation of disabled people and the LGBTQ community is equally harmful.

When the topic of lack of representation is brought up, victim blaming is common and some will say that minorities bring it upon themselves and do not try hard enough to be represented more accurately and more often. However, the lack of representation of marginalized groups is the fault of oppressive institutions and systematic oppression that has been normalized into our society, not the fault of the marginalized groups. A lack of representation creates a lack of opportunities and encourages marginalized youth to believe that they will never be qualified for various positions in the media, politics, student organizations, business and etc. simply because of the way the world views their identity or identities.

We can make changes by making efforts to change our own problematic ideologies.

Top How can I encourage a healthier body image? Top Self-test: Self-esteem Top where do I go for more information? About the author Content: Self-esteem impacts how you take care of yourself, emotionally, physically, and spiritually. Self-esteem is about your whole self, not just your body. When you have good self-esteem, you value yourself, and you know that you deserve good care and respect—from yourself and from others. You can appreciate and celebrate your strengths and your abilities, and you don’t put yourself down if you make a mistake. Good self-esteem means that you still feel like you’re good enough even when you’re dealing with difficult feelings or situations. Top Why do body image and self-esteem matter? Body image and self-esteem directly influence each other—and your feelings, thoughts, and behaviours. If you don’t like your body (or a part of your body), it’s hard to feel good about your whole self. The reverse is also true: if you don’t value yourself, it’s hard to notice the good things and give your body the respect it deserves.

The Highway Trust Fund, which disburses federal funds to build and maintain road and transit projects, faces a shortfall that will exhaust the fund shortly after the 2014 extension of the Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century (MAP-21) Act expires on May 31. If necessary, the Department of Transportation can take measures to continue disbursing funds until approximately the end of July. [ 1] In recent years Congress has routinely addressed the Highway Trust Fund shortfall by transferring money ($62 billion since 2008) from the general fund. However, these bailouts are not a viable long-term solution and indicate that federal highway funding requires extensive structural reform.

[ 2] This paper gives an overview of the Highway Trust Fund, its role in transportation funding, and the current state of its finances. Highway Trust Fund Overview The Highway Trust Fund collects and distributes money dedicated to federal highway and transit projects. The federal government provides roughly one-quarter of public spending on highways and mass transit, mostly in the form of grants to states. States and localities fund the remainder. [ 3] The trust fund is funded primarily by the federal taxes on gasoline and diesel fuel, which are 18.3 cents and 24.3 cents per gallon, respectively. [ 4] The gas and diesel tax rates have not changed since 1993, and account for 90 percent of the fund’s revenues. [ 5] The remainder comes from taxes on tires, trucks and trailers, and certain kinds of vehicles as well as interest credited to the trust fund.

Highway Trust Fund spending has outpaced revenue by billions and will continue to do so if current policies are kept in place. Spending has expanded beyond the original purpose of building and maintaining the interstate highway system to funding a litany of non-highway projects that are not national priorities. Growth in spending has far outpaced fuel tax revenues, which have flattened (declined in real terms) primarily because technological advances, such as more fuel-efficient combustion engines and hybrid and electric vehicles, have decreased aggregate fuel consumption. Furthermore, Highway Trust Fund spending falls outside normal budgeting constraints that govern most federal expenditures. This has created the current unsustainable situation in which the Highway Trust Fund has required repeated bailouts from the general fund.

Congress and the states divert roughly 25 percent of the Highway Trust Fund spending to non-highway projects that are not federal priorities. [ 12] The largest of these diversions is the Mass Transit Account, which spent some $8 billion in 2014 on buses, rail, streetcars, and other projects that should fall under the responsibility of municipal or state governments. Other programs include the Transportation Alternatives Program, which spent $820 million in 2014 on undertakings such as sidewalks, bike paths, scenic overlooks, vegetation management, and recreational trails. [ 13] These diversions sap funds that could be spent on the highway system—the purpose of the highway trust fund—and shortchange the motorists and shippers that pay directly into the system through fuel taxes.

Unique Budgetary Treatment. The Highway Trust Fund is unique in that its contract authority—the authority to obligate funds in advance of an appropriation act, similar to budget authority—is classified as mandatory, while its outlays are classified as discretionary spending. This hybrid status creates an unusual scenario in which normal budget constraints for mandatory and discretionary spending do not apply to the Highway Trust Fund. As the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget explains: Currently, budget rules limit new discretionary spending through statutory caps on budget authority and limit new mandatory spending by applying pay-as-you-go rules to mandatory outlays.

Due to its unique hybrid status, Highway Trust Fund expenditures are essentially exempt from sequestration. [ 16] However, transfers into the Highway Trust Fund are subject to sequestration cuts. Most recently, MAP-21 transferred $18.8 billion into the Highway Trust Fund for FY 2013 and FY 2014, which was reduced to $17.6 billion after sequestration cuts. Since 2008, sequestration has had a small effect on general fund transfers, reducing total transfers from $63.1 billion to $61.9 billion. [ 17] Under current law, any funds transferred into the Highway Trust Fund from the general fund after the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2013 expires at the end of FY 2015 would be subject to sequestration through 2021. Condition of the Nation’s Roads and Bridges While the common perception is that America’s infrastructure is “crumbling” and thus requires more federal expenditures, the reality is not nearly as bleak. Some infrastructure certainly requires maintenance and updating, as congestion is a major concern in many metropolitan areas. Indeed, the federal government provides perverse incentives for states to spend billions on new, unneeded projects instead of maintaining existing systems. [ 18] Yet taken as a whole, the nation’s infrastructure performs well and is improving.

Driving north into town on Highway 395, the Hermiston logo emblazoned on the water tower features a watermelon backdrop along with the slogan, “Where Life is Sweet.” And it isn’t just the locals who have a sweet tooth for Hermiston melons. Shoppers can find the specially branded fruit in Portland, Seattle and all across the West Coast. Some shipments have even gone as far as Texas and Georgia. The secret lies in the region’s sandy soil and desert climate, which provides a perfect combination of hot, dry days and cool nights. Watermelons absorb heat during the day, which the plants metabolize into sugar for energy. Once they cool off at night, the respiration process slows down and all that sugar gets stored in the fruit, hence their exceptionally sweet flavor. Walchli said this year has been a mostly typical growing season, compared to last year when planting got off to a slow start.

Melons are very reactive to the weather, more so than some of the other crops.” Scott Lukas, assistant professor of horticulture for Oregon State University, recently started a new research program at OSU’s Hermiston Agricultural Research and Extension Center with a partial focus on watermelons. He said growers have reported few issues with disease pressure, and for the most part the vines have been growing well.

Though Hermiston may account for just a blip on the national watermelon radar, McNamee said they are undeniably popular in the Northwest. “They get the sugar right, and they get them picked at the right time,” he said. “ It stands out compared to the competition.” Jack Bellinger, with Bellinger Farms, said he has already cut about a dozen watermelons off the vine and is excited about this year’s quality, which he attributes to a consistent growing season. “People are getting excited to see them on their plates.

Title: The Effects of Stress on the Brain - Hey Sigmund Headings: The Effects of Stress on the Brain The Effects of Stress on the Brain What does stress do to the brain? What about positive stress? The research. What they did. What They Found. Other Effects of Stress on the Brain Mindfulness: A Heroic Defence Against Stress 3 Comments Content: The research, published in the Journal of Neuroscience, has found that stressful life events interact with certain genes to change the size of the hippocampus, the part of the brain that processes emotions and transfers new information into long-term memories. An effectively functioning hippocampus is critical for learning. What does stress do to the brain? The hippocampus is particularly sensitive to stress because of the damaging effects of cortisol, the stress hormone. When the body is subject to stress, cortisol attacks the neurons and the hippocampus shrinks in size. This is commonly seen in people with depression and is the reason for some of the physical symptoms. The effect of cortisol is to force attention onto the emotions being experienced, while at the same time compromising the capacity to take in new information. The duration of stress can be almost as damaging as the degree of stress. What about positive stress? On the other hand, positive stress, such as that which is experienced in exciting social situations, can cause the hippocampus to increase in size.

The email asks victims to update their account information on the website, but when victims click on the link within the email, they are taken to a copycat website that secretly captures the information they enter. Online Stalking, Bullying, and Sex Crimes Some of the most serious computer crimes have nothing to do with making money, achieving political objectives, or showing off a hacker's skills. Instead, they are designed to cause emotional trauma to the victim. Social media websites provide offenders with the ability to publish hurtful or embarrassing material as a way of inflicting harm on others. Once photographs or other items are posted and circulated online, they can be impossible for the victim to remove. The fallout from these kinds of activities is especially devastating for school age children, who tend to be more sensitive to social harassment. A number of sexual offenses are also committed using computers. The trafficking of child pornography is one example. Federal and state authorities prosecute these cases vigorously, with convicted offenders often being sentenced to decades of incarceration.

Let Us Help You ➤ The First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution is arguably one of the most important laws in America. It prohibits the enactment of any laws respecting the establishment of religion, impeding the free exercise of religion, abridging the freedom of speech, infringing upon the freedom of the press, interfering with the right to peaceably assemble, or prohibiting citizens from petitioning for a governmental redress of grievances. It was adopted into the U.S. Constitution as a part of the first ten amendments, known as the "Bill of Rights" in 1791. Freedom of Speech / Freedom of the Press Today the First Amendment is almost synonymous in the minds of Americans with the freedom of speech and free press. The right to speak and write freely on virtually any topic is a right that has been fiercely protected by both the U.S. Supreme Court and the citizens as a whole. As a general rule, a person can say or write virtually anything about any person or topic, so long as it is truthful or based on an honest opinion, and cannot be held liable, either criminally or civilly for such statements. Certain types of speech are more readily protected than others. For example, commercial speech is heavily regulated because of the public interest in preventing false or misleading advertising, but political speech, or statements critical of the government, is one of the most strongly protected because of the interest in allowing differing, possibly unpopular opinions to be voiced. Artistic expression is also frequently protected under the First Amendment as a form of free speech or free press, which has led to a broad body of case law on topics such as obscenity and public indecency.

Let Us Help You ➤ Are There Any Special Laws Regarding Homeless People The gap between the richest and poorest people in the United States is bigger than in any other country in the world. As a result, homelessness has become a serious and widespread problem in America. But, how has society come to deal with this issue? Are there any special laws regarding homeless people? Anti-Homelessness Legislation There are two branches of law when it comes to homelessness in America: laws designed to help the homeless get aid, shelter, and food to improve their quality of life, and laws designed to criminalize homelessness and begging in order to force the homeless into shelter. Unfortunately, according to the National Coalition for the Homeless, the trend over recent years has favored criminalizing homelessness. Proponents of the criminalized homelessness approach believe that punishment will deter people from choosing to be homeless. This view, of course, assumes that homeless is always a choice.

Cities and states that have adopted this approach have begun outlawing activities like sleeping, eating, sitting, and begging in public spaces. They also tend to selectively enforce more neutral laws, like open container laws and anti-loitering provisions, against people who appear to be homeless. Those arrested on charges of violating any of these laws face not only jail time, but also fines and other penalties. It also leaves the homeless person with an arrest record, making the possibility of future employment even more difficult. Fortunately, the courts have begun to respond to the criminalization of homelessness.

Fortunately, the courts have begun to respond to the criminalization of homelessness. In Jones v. City of Los Angeles, a United States Court of Appeals held that the Eighth Amendment to the US Constitution prohibits cities from punishing involuntary sitting, lying, or sleeping in public spaces when it is an unavoidable consequence of homelessness. Unfortunately, the case was later settled out of court and the decision was vacated, meaning its precedential value on American law may be rather limited. Another approach to criminalizing homelessness has been to attack those who seek to help the homeless. Aid workers dispensing food to homeless people have been subject to fine or arrest in some cities. Other cities have outlawed giving money to panhandlers.

This, too, has led to challenges in court with mixed results. Homelessness Is Not a Recognized Protected Class Unlike other groups in American culture that enjoy special protections against discrimination, the homeless are not considered a protected class. Thus, legislation that specifically targets the homeless can be enforced and upheld so long as it does not deny the homeless of other constitutional rights and the law is applied uniformly without bias toward one of the classes that are protected (such as racial, ethnic, or religious minorities). As a result, various communities have taken ridiculous steps to discourage or criminalize homelessness.

What You Can Do If you are concerned about the plight of the homeless in America, you can take action. Contributing to organizations that support helping the homeless is an excellent option. You can also become involved in political organizations that seek to change laws affecting the homeless.

Title: Disorderly Conduct Charges - HG.org Headings: Disorderly Conduct Charges Disorderly Conduct Charges Explanation of Disorderly Conduct Charges Examples of Disorderly Conduct Question on Free Speech Consequences of Disorderly Conduct Charges in Error Legal Assistance Content: Free speech is provided under the First Amendment to the United States Constitution. However, this right is not absolute. The government can still take action against someone who threatens someone else through his or her speech or violates other speech laws. If their speech upsets others around them through conduct deemed offensive, a person may still be arrested. Even making a loud, public declaration about someone’s discontent with something around them can lead to arrest, especially if this person uses curse language or berates another person in an offensive manner. Consequences of Disorderly Conduct In most locations, disorderly conduct is considered a misdemeanor offense. Misdemeanors are considered to be less serious than a felony crime. However, a misdemeanor crime can still carry significant criminal consequences such as up to one year in jail. Other possible criminal consequences include having to pay a fine of several hundreds dollars, being placed on probation or having a criminal record that can follow the defendant around for the rest of his or her life. In other jurisdictions, disorderly conduct is considered a municipal violation and is treated similarly to a traffic ticket.

Charges in Error In some cases, a person may himself or herself charged with this offense. He or she may be targeted by the police due to racial or personal bias. The defendant may have been at the wrong place at the wrong time or simply an onlooker of some type of drama. In other situations, a person is “guilty by association” by being around friends who may be acting unruly while not doing anything legally wrong at the time of his or her own arrest. If friends are disorderly, the police may simply arrest all parties in the area, expect a quick plea and move on with their own lives without any real concern for the individuals who are wrongly arrested.

Title: How Does Parole Work? - HG.org Headings: How Does Parole Work? How Does Parole Work? Content: It is possible for a convict to get out on parole from a life sentence with exceptional behavior and most of their sentence served; however, this is a very rare circumstance as most life sentences do not offer parole as a possibility. The Parole Process The process of parole takes a number of steps: The eligibility for parole is determined – This is usually based on the sentence by the judge. Incarcerated people have to become eligible for parole or the case cannot continue. Once the prisoner becomes eligible, then they will appear before a parole board – They will be asked questions that determine how safe the convict will be in the outside world. In some cases, the victim or family of the victim will attend the hearings and testify to their experience in front of the board. Once all factors are considered, the inmate is either denied or accepted – The parolee must keep in touch with a parole officer, if he/she is accepted. Parole Restrictions While out on parole, parolees have certain restrictions on their life on the outside. One such mandatory behavior is to see their parole officer as often as the terms of the parole state.

Prostitution is one of those legal issues that creates an intense debate and will likely remain an issue in America for years to come. On the one hand, many feel prostitution is a victimless crime, only made dangerous as a result of its unregulated status and the fact that prostitutes cannot turn to authorities for help when exposed to violence or other criminal acts. Others feel that the prostitutes themselves are often the victims, and point to human trafficking, slavery, and violence against prostitutes as proof of that point. Regardless of which side of the debate one takes, there are still a number of factual and legal considerations when it comes to prostitution in the United States. Identification/Entrapment One of the most common myths is that an undercover police officer has to admit to being a police officer if asked directly while posing as either a prostitute or a “John.” This is a myth, for obvious reasons. Cops never have to identify themselves or tell the truth in any situation.

Title: What are the Laws About Bounty Hunters? - HG.org Headings: What are the Laws About Bounty Hunters? What are the Laws About Bounty Hunters? In the United States, bounty hunters are sometimes employed to chase down those who miss their hearings or trials in criminal cases. Content: the people who usually post the bail that got the fugitive out of jail after an arrest. The bounty hunter is usually paid about 10% of the total bail amount, though this varies. The bail bondsman hires the bounty hunter because if the fugitive eludes bail, the bondsman is responsible for 100% of the total bail amount. Using a bounty hunter ensures the fugitive arrives for trial. In the United States, bounty hunters reportedly catch over 30,000 bail jumpers each year, or about 90% of the fugitives who jump bail. This industry was made famous by several reality shows, like “Dog the Bounty Hunter” and its colorful cast of characters. Of course, the actual bounty hunting industry is usually less flashy. Skiptracing is the process of searching for people through less direct means. Many bounty hunters are well-practiced in this skill and use it to locate fugitives. Some confuse skiptracers and bounty hunters, but they are actually separate practices.

Content: The attorney will help you understand the law and your rights. Why Did Miranda Rights Become Law? The original Miranda decision dates to March 2, 1963. An 18-year-old Phoenix woman called the police and reported being kidnapped. She told police the suspect drove her into the desert and raped her. The police tracked the license plate number of a car matching the one the victim described. This led the police to Ernesto Miranda, who had a prior record. Even though Miranda was not identified by the victim in a line-up, the police took him in for questioning. Unsurprisingly, the officers left the interrogation with a confession. Miranda had no legal representation nor did anyone tell him that he did not have to say anything. (

The confession was brief and did not match the victim’s account of what happened. The court found Miranda guilty of the crime and put him in prison. In 1966, the Supreme Court made a decision in Miranda v. Arizona.

These houses were built fast, but well. By: Geoff Williams You've seen post-war houses -- you may even live in one. They're everywhere -- those single-story houses, sometimes split-level homes, that are boxy, brick and ordinary. Homes built after World War II were dubbed post-war, and you'll find that homes built at that time tend to come in certain styles, such as ranch or Cape Cod. Your basic post-war house is known for being basic. These houses are more functional than fun. In New York City real estate, post-war is used to describe high-rise apartment buildings that offer residents amenities they didn't have during the pre-war era, such as an elevator or doorman. Like their single-family home counterparts, post-war buildings are known for function rather than beauty.

A post-war house, thought of as a home built in the late 1940s throughout the 1970s, is tagged for having a sameness to them, where they're indistinguishable from the rest of the neighborhood. But what they lack in originality, they make up in their dependable sturdiness. These homes are rooted in American history, possibly some of the few home styles you learned about in high school. They were built as the American soldiers returned from fighting in World War II. Government legislation, such as the Federal Housing Administration and Servicemen's Readjustment Act, helped to fuel the housing industry -- which had been flagging in the 1930s and 1940s -- and suddenly millions of Americans across the country were buying up single-family houses.

Builders could hardly build them fast enough, which is why much of the artistry in houses found during the pre-war period started to disappear. But, again, that isn't to malign the post-war house. While the artistry may be missing in the post-war home, the craftsmanship isn't. As a group, these are durable, solid houses with a lot going for them.

It seems crazy to imagine that there wasn't a time when attached garages and carports existed, but by the post-war years, the car was a firmly established member of the family. While houses before World War II might come without a garage, that wasn't the case for the post-war home. Amenities. In New York City real estate, post-war buildings offer residents amenities for a community fee, such as doorman service, elevator or laundry facilities. Famous Examples Arapahoe Acres. This Colorado neighborhood of 124 was constructed between 1949 and 1957 by legendary building developer Edward Hawkins. In some way, the homes weren't your typical post-war houses -- much of the building materials were concrete, glass and aluminum, and they had a unique, futuristic look. Nothing cookie cutter about Arapahoe Acres, and yet, like post-war houses, the builders set out -- and achieved -- to create low-cost and functional homes. The homes, which are still around today and are protected, in fact, by being on the National Register of Historic Places, are small compared to today's homes but right in line with the size of homes built in the 1950s.

This Colorado neighborhood of 124 was constructed between 1949 and 1957 by legendary building developer Edward Hawkins. In some way, the homes weren't your typical post-war houses -- much of the building materials were concrete, glass and aluminum, and they had a unique, futuristic look. Nothing cookie cutter about Arapahoe Acres, and yet, like post-war houses, the builders set out -- and achieved -- to create low-cost and functional homes. The homes, which are still around today and are protected, in fact, by being on the National Register of Historic Places, are small compared to today's homes but right in line with the size of homes built in the 1950s. One very unusual feature for a post-war home: Many of the main doors are on the side of the house rather than in the front. The Case Study Houses. From 1945 to 1962, the magazine Arts & Architecture sponsored a project in which they commissioned prominent architects of the era to design and build inexpensive and functional model homes for all of the soldiers coming in and causing the residential housing boom. There were 36 designs, although not all of the homes were built;

There were 36 designs, although not all of the homes were built; most that were, were in Los Angeles, with a few in San Francisco and one in Phoenix. While some homes were opulent -- a couple were built in one of the wealthiest communities in the world, Bel Air -- Arts & Architecture mandated in the project that each "house must be capable of duplication and in no sense be an individual 'performance.'" They wanted the best materials for the home, but the designs to be "general enough to be of practical assistance to the average American in search of a home in which he can afford to live." Practically Speaking: Hassles and Headaches The older a house, the more one has to worry about things like the electrical outlets, the plumbing and the roof.

Content: The Affordable Care Act The Affordable Care Act ( Pub. L. No. 111-148 as amended by Pub. L. No. 111-152) includes new health care provider conscience protections within the health insurance Exchange program. Section 1303 (b) (4) of the Act provides that “No qualified health plan offered through an Exchange may discriminate against any individual health care provider or health care facility because of its unwillingness to provide, pay for, provide coverage of, or refer for abortions.” A recent Executive Order affirms that under the Affordable Care Act, longstanding federal health care provider conscience laws remain intact, and new protections prohibit discrimination against health care facilities and health care providers based on their unwillingness to provide, pay for, provide coverage of, or refer for abortions. Executive Order 13535, “Ensuring Enforcement and Implementation of Abortion Restrictions in the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act” (March 24, 2010). Additionally, Section 1553 of the Affordable Care Act (42 USC § 18113) - PDF incudes conscience protections regarding assisted suicide. “ The Federal Government, and any State or local government or health care provider that receives Federal financial assistance under this Act (or under an amendment made by this Act) or any health plan created under this Act (or under an amendment made by this Act), may not subject an individual or institutional health care entity to discrimination on the basis that the entity does not provide any health care item or service furnished for the purpose of causing, or for the purpose of assisting in causing, the death of any individual, such as by assisted suicide, euthanasia, or mercy killing.”

Protection of Correcting the Record Every Other Value Relies on Free Speech Free Speech Allows Free Thinkers Conclusion of The Importance of Free Speech Content: Protection of Ideas, Values, Ethics, Morals, and More Freedom of speech provides a baseline, unshakeable support for any and all beliefs. To truly appreciate the protection of these beliefs, we have to consider a time when citizens never had them. Consider yourself living in Soviet Russia during Stalin’s purges. During this time, all course of dissent from citizens was punished brutally. From purges to death camps, anyone that disagreed with the Soviets was quickly silenced. Through freedom of speech, you don’t have this fear. You can speak out against the government and its actors. You don’t have to toe a line and only openly discuss controversial issues in silence, or with your close family member. Free speech gives you a platform to tell your views to anyone that will listen. That’s even what I’m doing on this website.

Protection to Not Get Involved and to Stay Silent One of the under-reported benefits of freedom of speech that I have come to immensely respect is the ability to not speak. In situations such as North Korea, all citizens must be active in the arena of speaking in favor of the government. As if it is some utopian society. If they don’t, they are never heard from again. Imagine if that were to happen in our society.

It would lead to a lot of radicalization, and not a lot we could do to stop it. It’s much better to know your opponents case intensely. Which you can collect through open free speech discourse. That way, when you do need to prove it incorrect, you have all the information, facts, and logical connections to make your case. Free speech allows the smartest of our society to find the flaws in the weakest beliefs of that society. They can point them out, fully debunk them, and leave the opponents with a much weaker platform to further spread their agenda to other individuals. It reduces the possibility of others picking up on these bad beliefs and further spreading them, because the open discourse reduces their logical stranglehold on the conversation. This can be done for any bad or controversial opinion. It doesn’t have to be censored.

Despite its relatively small population, it has produced many high-achievers in science, technology and the arts. So it is not surprising that the Australian Education System is one of the best in the world. Australian high schools have strong standards, a comprehensive curriculum, and highly qualified teachers. High schools can be either state-owned (70% of students) or private (30%); all are subject to strict regulations and controls. There is emphasis on non-discrimination and equality of opportunity. In principle, a high school year in Australia and the relevant Australian school certificates are recognised and valued worldwide. School in Australia begins with six years of primary education (years 1-6) followed by six years of high school (years 7-12). Students normally begin Primary School at age 5 and finish high school around 17-18 years old.

The compulsory subjects are taught in all of the Australian schools that we deal with. There is also a wide range of optional subjects, which you will find listed in detail in the information section on individual schools. ( See The Schools ). Certain countries have particular curriculum specifications, so you should always check with your school first. For example, students in the German state of Baden-Wuerttemberg must study two foreign languages. Choosing compatible subjects in Australia saves you from repeating anything when you get back home. Quality Standards for International Students ESOS. In 2000, Australia passed a special law (an “act of Parliament”) on Education Services for Overseas Students (“ESOS”). The ESOS Act sets standards to safeguard the interests of international students in Australia.

Many Australian parents will take the opportunity to send their children to a private school if they can. Extra-curricular activities play a big role: almost all students are actively engaged in sports and/or music. There is always something happening before, during and after daily school hours – including weekends – and the options seem endless. In that respect, the higher school fees represent excellent value. These schools tend to have fewer overseas students, but they look after them individually and intensively. Unlike state schools, some private schools are also boarding schools. This is important for children from big farms (called “stations”) in the country’s interior. School is often hundreds of kilometres away, and they can only go home during school holidays.

Sport is a priority; there are many teams and competitions against other schools. Often, private schools have their own swimming pool (sometimes even Olympic-size), tennis courts, cricket, rugby or soccer fields, or even their own golf courses.

Assessment of School Achievements Achievements are assessed by means of homework, assignments, oral and written examinations, and practical assignments. At the end of each term, students receive a report card that describes their progress in the relevant subjects. School Uniforms Almost all state and private schools in Australia require students to wear school uniforms. Each high school has its own special uniform, and a shop where you can buy one new or used. The demand for second-hand uniforms is very useful for international students, because they can normally sell theirs quite easily before going home. International Baccalaureate (IB) The IB is basically a qualification to study at university. It is a form of international high school diploma (equivalent to Australian HSC, German “Abitur”, etc). It was originally intended for families who moved a lot because of work (diplomats, executives).

However, as guides, parents can often give too much advice and not ask children enough about what they think and feel. What children experience mentally and emotionally when performing in school, sports, arts, play and hobbies can provide you with a wealth of information about what comes most naturally to them.

Written by Highskyflying in Military Airplanes Modern-day fighter jets have entered their fifth generation and are associated with advanced weaponry including Beyond Visual Range (BVR) missiles, Electronic Countermeasures, super-sonic speed, and other advanced traits. Rightly so, a fighter jet of this era is one of the most lethal combat machines available to militaries, with the ability to strike with the precision of a few meters from the sky, hundreds of nautical miles away. However, when we talk about fighter jets or any aircraft for that matter, a few basic design parameters hold significance and one of these parameters is how slow the aircraft can fly while still being able to maintain level flight. Although fighter jets are designed to be agile, stealthy, and fast, the stalling characteristics play a vital role in its effectiveness. If a fighter jet stalls frequently, the job of a pilot becomes quite difficult as he/she must focus on keeping the aircraft in the air rather than the mission at hand. So, when discussing fighter jets, one may ponder how slow can a fighter jet fly?

If a fighter jet stalls frequently, the job of a pilot becomes quite difficult as he/she must focus on keeping the aircraft in the air rather than the mission at hand. So, when discussing fighter jets, one may ponder how slow can a fighter jet fly? The lowest speed a fighter jet can attain during controlled flight, typically ranges from 100knots to 200knots depending upon the design and other flight. Some of these design elements include parameters such as the angle of attack, the load factor, and the altitude. It is important to note that the stall speed of a fighter jet is not a fixed value, it continuously varies during a flight depending on the flight parameters, primarily, the angle of attack. To understand how slow an aircraft can fly, we must look at what keeps an aircraft airborne in the first place, the wings, that generate lift. If at any point during a flight, the wings stop generating adequate lift, the aircraft may go into a freefall.

Wings of an aircraft enable it to generate lift so that it can continue level flight. A stall condition is when the airflow around the aerofoil of a wing becomes insufficient due to reasons such as slow speed, or a very high angle of attack.

How do military planes land on carriers despite being unable to fly slow? Summary and Conclusion What is the stall speed of a fighter jet? Wings of an aircraft enable it to generate lift so that it can continue level flight. A stall condition is when the airflow around the aerofoil of a wing becomes insufficient due to reasons such as slow speed, or a very high angle of attack. Therefore, the computers of a modern fighter jet keep calculating the “Stall Speed” continuously during the flight. This is done by monitoring the angle of attack, the altitude, the attitude, the load coefficient, and several other parameters. This speed is commonly displayed to the pilot as Vmin indication on the speed scale. Although a fighter pilot is constantly aware of the minimum speed limit, there are times when a fighter jet may go below the minimum speed or the angle of attack (AOA) becomes too high. So, what happens when a fighter jet stalls?
