Roommate.com, LLC is classified under 230 as an “information content provider” because the website made the questions, force users to answer them in order to use the website and posted them on their website. The court came to the conclusion; Immunity through section 230 of the CDA does not protect Roommate.com, LLC. The court rationalized that since Roommate, LLC required subscribers to answer questions about sex, sexual preference, and family status that makes Roommate.com responsible in part of the content for each profile page. There is no way to opt out which makes Roommate.com not protected under immunity in section 230 of CDA. Since, the…
Many college students reduce costs by staying in dorms with roommates. Remember the environment you live in can contribute to your success or failure in college. Living with roommates in a dorm room can be enjoyable, but think about staying at your home or with your family if you think that's better for you.…

In other words, I would say this is Louisiana finest but the way arresting my noise with this smell make me never want a roommate again. He is a twenty years old baby that don’t know anything. I hope no one gets him as a roommate. No one and I mean on one needs that in their life. To sum up, I have that roommate from hell’s…
In the dialogue Crito, Crito is making the argument to Socrate that he needs to escape jail, because he is an innocent man, that he doesn’t deserve to die, and that he needs to leave before he loses his life. While, Socrate counter argues that he must stay in jail and reserve the punishment that they voted for him, because for him to ran and escape jail that in itself is injustice even if he is in fact an innocent man. In Socrate’s counter argument he proclaims that if he and Crito came up with a plan to help him escape they would have to come up with unjust solutions to get him out, and those solutions would involve actually corrupting more innocent men, and if caught they would also be prosecuted, and this would be enforcing the accusations…
Another thing that I didn’t like about my roommate was that he was not organized. He never did the dishes after he ate and that caused bad smells in the kitchen. In addition, he threw his dirty clothes all over the room so you cannot find a place to set and never helped to throw the garbage out or clean the room.…
This question continues to raise a compelling argument to this very day. The University of Notre Dame has a total of 30 dorms and they are broken down to 16 male-only and 14 female-only. According to an article posted on About.com:Alcoholism, a new study in the Journal of American College Health finds that 42% of students that occupy coed housing been have reported to take part in binge drinking on a weekly basis as opposed to 18% in single-sex housing. This article also reports that students in coed housing are more likely to have multiple sex partners during their residency. Jason Carroll, a study coauthor and professor of family life at Brigham Young University was quoted saying,…

Within today’s ever growing “health cautious” world, there are many different areas of focus to one’s health and well-being. One rather controversial areas of concern being co-sleeping with infants. There’s many perspectives of co-sleeping with an infant, ranging from professional healthcare providers and sleep-deprived parents wishing to catch some extra “z’s” during the night. Many healthcare professionals are urging parents to immediately stop co-sleeping, or to not even begin the co-sleeping process once the infant arrives home from the hospital. The many debatable points that are brought about when discussing co-sleeping with an infant are parents needing the rest to function while taking care of an infant, infants becoming smothered by blankets or their parents in the sharing bed and infants being dropped and/or rolling out of the bed while co-sleeping.…
How different we are! We deal with different people. These people can be our neighbors, class fellows, our friends or they can be our roommates. If I speak about my roommates, first I will categorize them into different groups. However roommates include people or students who come from different places, provinces or even from different countries so in this case they are categorized into various divisions. Generally in my point of view, roommates are classified into three diverse sorts in terms of their behavior, ethic or morality, merit and as bellow;…
“Co-sleeping (also known as bed sharing or "having a family bed") is the practice of having your infant in your bed with you during sleep” (Noelle). Co-Sleeping has become controversial in the United States although it has been popular in a lot of western culture. Americans tend to value independence, even in infants, so this makes the practice of sleeping with another somewhat a controversy. It can be said that sharing a bed with a sleeping baby can be seen as harmful to the child in that it may make him clingier, insecure, cause sleep problems for them later in life, or even increase the risk of SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome) by putting them at the risk of being smothered or crushed. However, hence the controversy, research has found many benefits to co-sleeping as well.…
This theory comes to explain the uncertainty among people who communicate with each other and how different types of communication will help to reduce the uncertainty. As a starting point, the developers of this theory (Charles Berger and Richard Calabrese) stated that uncertainty is an unpleasant feeling, which people prefer to avoid as much as they can. Every person has been confronted with the feeling of uncertainty, rather if it was when arriving to new a destination or more commonly when meeting a new person. In order to reduce the unpleasant feeling, people tend to seek information about the uncertain and by that creating more comfortable feelings, and more predictable relationships in case of communication with other people. “Coping with uncertainty is a central issue in any face-to-face encounter, whether interactants are conscious of this fact or not” (Uncertainty Reduction Theory Then and Now. Charles R. Berger), but when the uncertainty is reducing automatically the feeling of attraction (not only physically) start to emerge.…
The dorms that we live in now are far from the best. We live in a 10 x 10 box; well that's how it seems anyway. Our dorms have 2 beds, 2 desks, 2 closets, and a sink. We got lucky with the sink, but that doesn't make living in our hall any better than anywhere else. In the little rooms we also have to fit our TV, refrigerator and a microwave. With everything in place there is just enough room to walk around. One thing that causes problems in storage, storage in the dorms is very limited. We have an adjustable thermostat so we can control our own room temperature, but it often breaks and air conditioning goes out; that's no fun. We don't have bathrooms and not having a bathroom in our rooms is a pain in the butt. Why would anyone want to walk down the hallway at 2am just to go to the bathroom? The bathrooms in the dorms we have now are very unsanitary and disgusting too. I think bathrooms should be in all the rooms, just for convenience. All of the doors in our rooms have key locks and they do not lock behind you. Some people forget to lock the door and that often leads to serious situations…
