However, in light of previous incidents of white supremacist-inspired arson against black churches establishing a credible threat, the same individual may be justifiably detained temporarily for police investigation. The current situation in airport screening justifies law enforcement profiling for the purpose of identifying subjects for secondary screening in the same way, and without violating constitutional rights any more than in other tactical situations where credible circumstances justify specific investigatory interest in a particular subject.
Likewise, it would be possible to improve...
government established a civilian intelligence agency to perform many of the functions now performed by law enforcement investigators. That is simply because civilian entities without government powers of arrest or prosecution are significantly less constrained with respect to the reach of 4th and 5th amendment protections than are any government law enforcement authorities. By applying more reasonable standards of what type of security screening constitutes constitutionally impermissible profiling and by incorporating civilian entities in surveillance and monitoring of electronic and other communications, the U.S. could greatly enhance its contemporary counterterrorism efforts without violating the way of life and privileges that those efforts are intended to protect.

Literature Review 1. The dilemma of Obesity Mokdad et al., (1999) in his study found that the issue of unhealthy weight, overweight and obesity are perhaps one of the rising concerns for the Americans in the 21st century as more and more U.S. citizens become vulnerable to the circumstantial risks and dangers of the phenomenon (Mokdad et al., 1999).

Wood indicates that "everyone has different motivations and aspirations that they wish to achieve in their life. Work-life balance is about adjustments that can be made to working patterns to enable people to combine work with the other facets of their life. Bratton and Gold (2003: 105) de-ne work-life balance as, 'the relationship between the institutional and cultural times and spaces of work and non-work in societies where income

Under such market conditions, the buyer sets the price. Buyers are strong if there are a few buyers that take up the entire market share, and are weak if the product producer can take over

The flight attendants' union (LFA - League of Flight Attendants) wanted much more than MCA wanted to give, but it was also clear that the LFA had legitimate concerns with the way they were treated by MCA and what they were offered financially. LFA was very committed to the idea that concessions needed to
