Can Sports help enhance gender equity? Based on Olympic Games 113 years ago‚ in 1900‚ the first women participated in the Olympic Games‚ 22 women participated in the two events‚ Tennis and Golf for female athletes. After another four years‚ in 1904 the first medals were given out to the champions of the 6 participants‚ which now also had the chance to compete in Archery. In the London Olympics 2012‚ there were over 302 events and on 140 of them women were permitted to compete. That’s why these

criminals getting away with their crimes and into a high level of injustice caused by the subjective approach of different courts。 In my opinion an intermediary position between both solutions is the perfect way to establish and ensure justice and equity. There have to be fixed punishment for all crimes. However‚ criminal laws have to provide for a minimum and maximum for the punishment and the laws also have to foresee certain cases of exemptions. An example for setting minimum and maximum penalties

States of matter Four fundamental states: Solid - In a solid the particles (ions‚ atoms or molecules) are packed closely together. As a result‚ a solid has a stable‚ definite shape‚ and a definite volume. Solids can only change their shape by force‚ as when broken or cut. Liquid - A liquid is a nearly incompressible fluid that conforms to the shape of its container but retains a (nearly) constant volume independent of pressure. The volume is definite if the temperature and pressure are constant

Dark Matter Astronomy Samuel Research Topic Topic: Dark Matter‚ Astronomy Saul Perl mutter‚ 2011 states “The Universe in made mostly of dark matter and dark energy‚ and we don’t know what either of them is.” The above statement by Saul Perl mutter suggests that astronomers at this age have found this unknown substance by the name of Dark Matter. We chose this topic on Dark Matter as it intrigues us what is beyond our atmosphere and what is it made off. We want to know how Scientists realized

There is much more dark matter than normal (visible) matter in the universe. According to (this source) roughly 68% of the universe is dark energy. Dark matter makes up about 27%‚ while everything else in the universe (physical matter like the atoms that make up planets and stars) makes up less than 5% of the universe. According to (this source) the universe is actually 96% of dark matter and dark energy. With 73% being dark energy and 23% being dark matter but the implications of this much

States of matter are the distinct forms that different phases of matter take on. Historically‚ the distinction is made based on qualitative differences in bulk properties. Solid is the state in which matter maintains a fixed volume and shape; liquid is the state in which matter maintains a fixed volume but adapts to the shape of its container; and gas is the state in which matter expands to occupy whatever volume is available. This diagram shows the nomenclature for the different phase transitions

Equity has brought benefits to many litigants who would otherwise have been severely disadvantaged by the common law. Discuss‚ with reference to decided cases. William the Conqueror found England with no single system of law common to the whole country. The law was mainly sets of customary rules which differed from area to area. For example‚ in one area you could get away with stealing‚ in another it would be seen as crime. There was no such thing as ‘ The English Legal System” until William’s

DEBT TO EQUITY PROPORTIONS In building the pool of funds for the business it is important to balance and optimize the proportions of debt and equity. The relationship between total debt and total equity is referred to as leverage or gearing. If there is too much debt‚ a business becomes highly leveraged with the implications of: • Repayment risk. The risk to debt providers increases as there is less of an equity buffer to absorb losses that the business may make. • Interest risk. The interest
