Summarize the article \"Trading liberty for illusions\" by Wendy Kaminer in 300 words by following these steps: - the central idea of the passage - what, who, why, where, when and how - the author\'s conclusion - the subject of the description and it\'s key feature(s) Solution The central idea of the article is about how the September 11 attacks have affected the civilian population. In such circumstances, people are really scary and it is the responsibility of the government to take all necessary precautions to secure its citizens. But the actions adhered to go beyond the logical approach to safety by using several surveillance devices to track criminals or abnormal behavior. Kaminer accuses government of ignoring the civil liberties and the processes followed were pointless and demonstrated its failures. She further adds that Americans have had to trade their privacy with security, which means there is no privacy. The ways facial recognition was used and abused, she says it constitutes a threat to security and liberty, not a promise of security. The hard-core trained criminals fooled the intelligence surveillance system by suppressing their emotions, behaviors, and facial expressions which proved the systems to be highly inefficient. This leaves technology surveillance system a very controversial topic in the United States. She goes on to say that the government is divided between using law as it was intended or breaking law to meet special interest breaching security of the people it is supposed to protect. The government should not exploit the gullibility of the citizens, for dissenters will start questioning the credibility of the American philosophy. What she concludes is that though technological advancement is geared up at improving security, it should be relied upon as the most accurate measure against threat. The government need a sober approach to security and privacy and should not rely upon the existing systems, laws, and technology. *****.

THE ETHICAL DILEMMA OF THE USA GOVERNMENT WIRETAPPING
USA Government wiretapping activities is a very controversial issue. Undoubtedly this technology can
assist law enforced authority to detect / identify unlawful or hostile activities; however, this task raises
severe privacy concerns. In this paper, we have discussed this complex information technology issue of
governmental wiretapping and how it effects both public and private liberties. Legislation has had a
major impact on the uses and the stigma of wiretapping for the war on terrorism. This paper also
analyzes the ethical and legal concerns inherent when discussing the benefits and concerns of
wiretapping. The analysis has concluded with the effects of wiretapping laws as they relate to future
government actions in their fight against terrorists.
Causes of the Growing Conflict Between Privacy and Security
The struggle of maintaining an acceptable level of individual privacy is inherent in any society which values group protection from both internal and external threats. This paper illustrates the competing priorities that are the source of the conflict between privacy and security.

Introduction
The topic of security has been an issue for many countries and citizens alike as countries struggle to root out the vice of insecurity that is posing a great threat especially during this technological era where everything is virtually done online. Today every country around the world is grappling with keeping its citizens and institutions safe from external attacks and threats. Some of these threats could be motivated by various factors ranging from political, economic and social issues which make individuals or groups plan some sort of leveling score mission. If we were to review history in the early days during the 17th and 18th century the issues of insecurity among various nations were in existence but not at the height it is in the wake of the 21st century. Those days’ strategic alliances worked best in culminating threats of external and internal invasion, various leaders would call for peaceful resolution of the indifference that might exist between or among groups of nations. The mode or means of attack was not as sophisticated as it today since the only way terrorists would invade empires those days were through the physical means of actually leading an invasion group or plotting with a team on the ground to execute their plan.
Today this tactic has changed leaving institutions mandated with protecting our boundaries and keeping the people safe with a huge task of coming up with various ways of knowing how, where and when the security threats might actually occur. Some of the world leading security institutions that have earned a name for themselves are the homeland security, the Federal Bureau of Investigation FBI and Scotland Yard. These institutions have in the recent past prevented so many attacks plotted against the United States of America and many countries around the world through tapping the wide insecurity network around the world.
Background research
The issue of terrorism and external attacks has led to numerous loss of lives and property and must be cubed and properly managed using the most efficient methods so as to ensure proper security. It is evident that terrorists no longer use outdated strategies while carrying out attacks. With technology evolving with time, they have learned and mastered the use of new technology and have succeeded in coming up with some of the toughest attacks to prevent. Therefore, the DHS is left with a tough task and must improvise some of the best tactics in their strategic plan so as to have a proper chance in managing the situation. The intelligent gathering is one of the best elements that can be applied by the DHS in order to come up with the right solutions that will stop or prevent external attacks and terrorism.

Edward J. Snowden, the thirty-year-old former National Security Agen.docx
Edward J. Snowden, the thirty-year-old former National Security Agency contractor who handed over a treasure trove of classified documents about U.S. government surveillance to the Washington Post and Britain's Guardian, is a hero to some and a traitor to others. He claims to have acted out of a sense of outrage over the NSA's indiscriminate collection of the phone and internet records of Americans, decrying the danger such intrusive government oversight poses to democracy and privacy. Snowden subsequently fled to Hong Kong, and from there to Moscow. His eventual destination appears to be Ecuador, Cuba, or Venezuela.
Snowden's efforts to elude U.S. authorities cast an ambiguous light on his motives; the countries where he has sought refuge are not known for upholding the sort of democratic values he claims to be defending. While demanding accountability from the U.S. government, he appears to be seeking immunity for his own actions. Snowden's purposes and fate, however, should be of secondary concern. However misguided his actions may have been, they have reopened a much-needed debate about the reach and authority of what is often called the National Security State. While defending the NSA programs, even President Barack Obama seems to welcome that debate. "You can't have 100 percent security and also then have 100 percent privacy and zero inconvenience," Obama noted when asked about Snowden's leaks. "We're going to have to make some choices as a society. ... There are trade-offs involved."
Administration officials and members of Congress say the government's extensive surveillance programs are crucial to preventing terrorist attacks, and that Snowden has done real damage to efforts to keep Americans safe. Because almost all the relevant information remains classified, it is difficult to assess that claim. NSA officials have now promised to make public details of some of the dozens of terrorist plots they say the massive data-collection effort, called Prism, has helped thwart. That sort of disclosure is long overdue. Although Prism was approved by the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act court and is monitored by the intelligence committees of Congress, many Americans were shocked to learn that the government now stores their phone and internet records for possible use in future investigations. While the government is prohibited from listening to the tracked calls, it uses sophisticated algorithms to trace calling patterns. If a series of related calls seems suspicious, the NSA or FBI then gets a warrant from the FISA court to investigate further. No abuse of those procedures has come to light. Still, the mere existence of such records in the government's hands, information that might easily be exploited for political purposes, should concern every American.
It is axiomatic that fighting clandestine terrorist groups requires clandestine methods. Sources and allies must be protected; in preemptive actions the element of surprise must be prese.
Compare and contrast protein import into the ER and into the nucleus.pdf
Compare and contrast protein import into the ER and into the nucleus. List at least two major
differences in the mechanisms and speculate on why the nuclear mechanism might not work for
ER import.
Solution
The Proteins are imported into the nucleus from the cytoplasm only after thay have been
synthesized,folded and properly assembled into complexes. They carry a sequence of amino
acids that acts as a tag called as Nuclear localization signals (NLS) ,bound by importins. In
contrast, all the unfolded polypeptide chains will be imported or translocated into ER as they are
been made by the ribosomes. Though ribosomes function in the cytosol they are assembled in the
nucleus where as the enzyme complexes function in the nucleus and assembles in the cytosol.
But, both these ribosomes and enzyme complexes are transported through a nuclear pore intact.
These Nuclear pores are gates, always opened for small molecules; in contrast, translocation
channels in the ER membrane will be normally closed and open only after the ribosome has
attached to the membrane. The ER membrane remains impermeable to small molecules during
the translocation process, as the ER is a major store for Ca2+ ions in the cell, and Ca2+ ions
released into the cytosol must be tightly controlled.
Nuclear localization signals (NLS) are not cleaved off after the protein is imported into the
nucleus; in contrast, ER signal peptides are usually cleaved off.
Nuclear localization signals (NLS) are needed inorder to reimport nuclear proteins repeatedly
after they have been released into the cytosol i.e during mitosis, when the nuclear envelop breaks
down..

Dimitri and Rita eat some donuts for breakfast and then spend the mo.pdf
Dimitri and Rita eat some donuts for breakfast and then spend the morning at an amusement
park. After a few hours of riding the Super Looper Double Twist Dimitri feels nauseous and
regurgitates the donuts. Rita is fine, but Dimitri has developed a ________, and the next time
they stop for donuts, Dimitri immediately feels ill.
a. taste aversion
b. taste response
c. unconditioned aversion
d. unconditioned response
Solution
Taste aversion is a condition which is generally developed after ingestion of food that causes
nausea, vomiting, and sickness.
This condition serves as a mechanism to avoid poisonous substances before they can cause harm
to our body.
This condition is most commonly seen in human beings.
When a person eats bad food, he develops nausea and becomes aversive to that food.
The same thing happened in the above case. Dimitri has developed a food aversion for donuts.
The next time they stop for donuts, Dimitri immediately feels ill.
Therefore, option A is correct..
detail the importance of cell culture to the field of virologySo.pdf
detail the importance of cell culture to the field of virology
Solution
Virology is a study of viruses and cell culture is culturing of cells under controlled conditions in
the laboratory. Traditionally cell culture based viral diagnostic products are developed to
produce vaccines.Viral disease dignosis traditionally developed using these cell cultures. Animal
cell cultures are used to replicate the viruses instead of producing vaccines.Cell culture also used
to detect and isolate viruses, study the mode of infection from viruses and development cycles.
Recent advances in using cell culture based viral diagnostic products involve use of novel cell
cultures, cryopreserved cell products etc..
Ageism disproportionately affects women since they outlive me. T.pdf
\"Ageism disproportionately affects women since they outlive me.\" This could be understood as
a form of intersectionality. FIRST explain the concept of intersectionality. THEN, identify and
explain two other ways (i.e. not pertaining to the intersection of advanced age and gender) in
which intersectionality might negatively affect medical treatment and/or outcomes. FINALLY,
identify and explain one way in which each of those negative effects could be migrated or
counteracted.
Suggested term(s): intersectionality, intersectionality and health disparities.
Solution
Intersectionality is the study of the overlapping (intersecting) social identities of oppression,
domination or discrimination. identities which intersect include gender, race, social class,
ethnicity, nationality, sexual orientation, religion, age, mental disability, physical disability,
mental illness, and physical illness etc.,.
Incase of intersectionality of mothers with HIV the mothers does not reveal that they have HIV
due to their cultural problems and does not take treatment for their disease. They have additional
responsibility of taking care of their children and other house hold activities.
The negative effects could be migrated or counteracted by utilization of intersectionality to aid
nurse scientists in knowledge development and inform nursing practice regarding issues of social
injustice and health inequities there by the people under the need have awareness about the
treatment and the need for it..

2. The Lorenz curve measures inequality in person income distributio.pdf
2. The Lorenz curve measures inequality in person income distribution. What is the difference
between personal income distribution and functional income distribution?
Solution
Personal income distribution shows differences in income of citizens among a nation. On the
otherhand, functional income distribution may occur due to difference in factor rewards to
production, viz. wages, rent, interest and profits. The former one belongs to the discussion of
labour market and the later one is determined in input/factor market that ultimately show factor
rewards..
1.) In some forms of epigenetic modification, when a gene is “marked.pdf
1.) In some forms of epigenetic modification, when a gene is “marked”,
a.) its expression is semi-permanently altered.
b.) it is tagged for deletion.
c.) its genetic code is temporarily modified.
d.) all of the above
2.)A case in which Littorina snails upregulate shell deposition and develop a thicker shell when
crabs are present is an example of:
a.) seasonal polyphenism
b.) phenotypic plasticity
c.) genomic imprinting
d.) amplification
Solution
1. (a) its expression is semi-permanently altered.
2. (b) Phenotypic plasticity
Phenotypic plasticity refers to the ability of a genotype to exhibit alternative morphological,
behavioral and physiological characteristics in response to environmental condition. Inducible
defenses are a ubiquitous form of plasticity that involve the production of chemicals,
morphologies, or behaviors by prey species in response to predator cues. These changes reduce
prey vulnerability to inducing predators or herbivores..
Will th ebelow code work andif not please help me fix it. Basically .pdf
Will th ebelow code work andif not please help me fix it. Basically I am taking in a line of code
and we are supposed to use fail state to figure out which kind of format the line will follow. It
will either follow one of two formats. So I am trying to say if while reading in it hits something
that doesn\'t work it must be the OTHER kind of line. Am I using clear and fail functions
correctly? It is important that when it fails the next value being read in goes into the place where
it failed reading in.
So if it tries to read something in and it fails the next value read in should go into THAT value
and not the next one.
Solution
Reasons:
i) You cannot start read vertexOne or vertexTwo, before you open the stream
ii) Set up your file reading in streams based on the layout of your files, so what you can do is to
have if-else
statements that select the right stream setup bases on the filname.

The visual system that a mountain biker would use to identify changes.pdf
The visual system that a mountain biker would use to identify changes in the trail or to perceive
a rider in front of him or her is the: fovea. parallel processing system. ambient system. focal
system.
Solution
The two types of pathways in visual systems are focal and ambient.
The mountain biker uses ambient system to identify changes in the trial or to perceive a rider in
front of him/her.
The peripheral vision also referred as ambient pathway is concerned with movement and depth
perception and is generally considered to be crucially involved in motion processing..

Which of the following is NOT a benefit of breathing through the nose? extraction of heat and
moisture from the air leaving the nasal cavity destruction of pathogens entering the nasopharynx
filtration of the air entering the nasal cavity heating and moistening the air entering the nasal
cavity
Solution
B. Destruction of pathogens entering the nasopharynx
The pathogens are trappped by the mucous, but are not destroyed. The mucus is driven off and
either enters the GI tract or is spit out. This prevents the pathogens from gaining access to the
epithelium, and subsequent infection..

It is axiomatic that fighting clandestine terrorist groups requires clandestine methods. Sources and allies must be protected; in preemptive actions the element of surprise must be prese.

Compare and contrast protein import into the ER and into the nucleus.pdf
Compare and contrast protein import into the ER and into the nucleus. List at least two major
differences in the mechanisms and speculate on why the nuclear mechanism might not work for
ER import.
Solution
The Proteins are imported into the nucleus from the cytoplasm only after thay have been
synthesized,folded and properly assembled into complexes. They carry a sequence of amino
acids that acts as a tag called as Nuclear localization signals (NLS) ,bound by importins. In
contrast, all the unfolded polypeptide chains will be imported or translocated into ER as they are
been made by the ribosomes. Though ribosomes function in the cytosol they are assembled in the
nucleus where as the enzyme complexes function in the nucleus and assembles in the cytosol.
But, both these ribosomes and enzyme complexes are transported through a nuclear pore intact.
These Nuclear pores are gates, always opened for small molecules; in contrast, translocation
channels in the ER membrane will be normally closed and open only after the ribosome has
attached to the membrane. The ER membrane remains impermeable to small molecules during
the translocation process, as the ER is a major store for Ca2+ ions in the cell, and Ca2+ ions
released into the cytosol must be tightly controlled.
Nuclear localization signals (NLS) are not cleaved off after the protein is imported into the
nucleus; in contrast, ER signal peptides are usually cleaved off.
Nuclear localization signals (NLS) are needed inorder to reimport nuclear proteins repeatedly
after they have been released into the cytosol i.e during mitosis, when the nuclear envelop breaks
down..

Dimitri and Rita eat some donuts for breakfast and then spend the mo.pdf
Dimitri and Rita eat some donuts for breakfast and then spend the morning at an amusement
park. After a few hours of riding the Super Looper Double Twist Dimitri feels nauseous and
regurgitates the donuts. Rita is fine, but Dimitri has developed a ________, and the next time
they stop for donuts, Dimitri immediately feels ill.
a. taste aversion
b. taste response
c. unconditioned aversion
d. unconditioned response
Solution
Taste aversion is a condition which is generally developed after ingestion of food that causes
nausea, vomiting, and sickness.
This condition serves as a mechanism to avoid poisonous substances before they can cause harm
to our body.
This condition is most commonly seen in human beings.
When a person eats bad food, he develops nausea and becomes aversive to that food.
The same thing happened in the above case. Dimitri has developed a food aversion for donuts.
The next time they stop for donuts, Dimitri immediately feels ill.
Therefore, option A is correct..

detail the importance of cell culture to the field of virology
Solution
Virology is a study of viruses and cell culture is culturing of cells under controlled conditions in
the laboratory. Traditionally cell culture based viral diagnostic products are developed to
produce vaccines.Viral disease dignosis traditionally developed using these cell cultures. Animal
cell cultures are used to replicate the viruses instead of producing vaccines.Cell culture also used
to detect and isolate viruses, study the mode of infection from viruses and development cycles.
Recent advances in using cell culture based viral diagnostic products involve use of novel cell
cultures, cryopreserved cell products etc..
Ageism disproportionately affects women since they outlive me. T.pdf
\"Ageism disproportionately affects women since they outlive me.\" This could be understood as
a form of intersectionality. FIRST explain the concept of intersectionality. THEN, identify and
explain two other ways (i.e. not pertaining to the intersection of advanced age and gender) in
which intersectionality might negatively affect medical treatment and/or outcomes. FINALLY,
identify and explain one way in which each of those negative effects could be migrated or
counteracted.
Suggested term(s): intersectionality, intersectionality and health disparities.
Solution
Intersectionality is the study of the overlapping (intersecting) social identities of oppression,
domination or discrimination. identities which intersect include gender, race, social class,
ethnicity, nationality, sexual orientation, religion, age, mental disability, physical disability,
mental illness, and physical illness etc.,.
Incase of intersectionality of mothers with HIV the mothers does not reveal that they have HIV
due to their cultural problems and does not take treatment for their disease. They have additional
responsibility of taking care of their children and other house hold activities.
The negative effects could be migrated or counteracted by utilization of intersectionality to aid
nurse scientists in knowledge development and inform nursing practice regarding issues of social
injustice and health inequities there by the people under the need have awareness about the
treatment and the need for it..

2. The Lorenz curve measures inequality in person income distributio.pdf
2. The Lorenz curve measures inequality in person income distribution. What is the difference
between personal income distribution and functional income distribution?
Solution
Personal income distribution shows differences in income of citizens among a nation. On the
otherhand, functional income distribution may occur due to difference in factor rewards to
production, viz. wages, rent, interest and profits. The former one belongs to the discussion of
labour market and the later one is determined in input/factor market that ultimately show factor
rewards..

Phenotypic plasticity refers to the ability of a genotype to exhibit alternative morphological,
behavioral and physiological characteristics in response to environmental condition. Inducible
defenses are a ubiquitous form of plasticity that involve the production of chemicals,
morphologies, or behaviors by prey species in response to predator cues. These changes reduce
prey vulnerability to inducing predators or herbivores..
Will th ebelow code work andif not please help me fix it. Basically .pdf
Will th ebelow code work andif not please help me fix it. Basically I am taking in a line of code
and we are supposed to use fail state to figure out which kind of format the line will follow. It
will either follow one of two formats. So I am trying to say if while reading in it hits something
that doesn\'t work it must be the OTHER kind of line. Am I using clear and fail functions
correctly? It is important that when it fails the next value being read in goes into the place where
it failed reading in.
So if it tries to read something in and it fails the next value read in should go into THAT value
and not the next one.
Solution
Reasons:
i) You cannot start read vertexOne or vertexTwo, before you open the stream
ii) Set up your file reading in streams based on the layout of your files, so what you can do is to
have if-else
statements that select the right stream setup bases on the filname.

what is the transport process for a methane gas leakSolutionS.pdf
what is the transport process for a methane gas leak?
Solution
Scientists have developed a material made out of a mixture of silica and water which can soak up
large quantities of methane molecules. The material looks and acts like a fine white powder
which, if developed for industrial use, might be easily transported or used as a vehicle fuel.
Methane is the principal component of natural gas and can be burnt in oxygen to produce carbon
dioxide and water. The abundance of the gas and its relatively clean burning process makes it a
good source of fuel, but due to its gaseous state at room temperature, methane is difficult to
transport from its source.
Many natural gas reserves are geographically remote and can only be extracted via pipelines, so
there is a need to look for other ways to transport the gas. It has been suggested that methane gas
hydrate could be used as a way of containing methane gas for transportation. The disadvantage
of methane gas hydrate for industry use is that it is formed at a very slow rate when methane
reacts with water under pressure.
To counteract these difficulties, a method to break water up into tiny droplets to increase the
surface area in contact with the gas can be used. Mixing water with a special form of silica – a
similar material to sand – which stops the water droplets from coalescing. This ‘dry water’
powder soaks up large quantities of methane quite rapidly at around water’s normal freezing
point.
‘Dry water’ could be more economical than other potential products because it is made from
cheap raw materials. The material may also have industrial applications if methane could be
stored more conveniently and used to power clean vehicles..
what is a shared derived charterer and how is it useful for construc.pdf
what is a shared derived charterer and how is it useful for constructing a phylogeny ?
Solution
Phylogeny can be understood as the science of developmental history of an organism with
respect to other organisms. Since the origin of an individual remains unknwon and
developmental characters can be measures only relative to other known organisms, the science of
phylogeny is based upon relavance of the features of a developing organism with respect to other
organisms whose features have been already well studied. For this purpose, the extent of
relatedness and differences between two or more organisms are generally studied. There are
some features which remain exclusive for a species whereas some features are common in
different species. These common features are termed as \'shared derived characters\' because it is
supposed that owing to their presence, anatomical relavance and similarities in physiological
function in different species, these features must have been orginated from a common ancestor
and gradually shared by different species for development. Thus, the more is the number of
shared derived characters between two or more species, the more likely is their evolutionary
relatedness.
For example, while constructing a phylogeny tree, the index of these shared derived characters
remains highly useful. It helps in grouping and clssifying organisms based upon their
evolutionary history and evident relatedness based upon number of shared characters. For
example, all organisms with jointed feet are placed under phylum arthropoda. After that,
organisms with paired feet and un-paired feet are differentiated either as millipeds or centipeds.
After that, organisms are differentiated based upon their mouth structures and so on. Thus, the
occurence of jointed feet, nature of feet and distribution of body plates on mouth cavity represent
shared derived characters. These characters can be further elaborated at anatomical and
molecular levels.
Thus, this clearly explains the role of shared derived charterer and its usefullness for
constructing a phylogeny tree..

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic Imperative
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

https://app.box.com/s/hqnndn05v4q5a4k4jd597rkdbda0fnii2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis.

Summarize the article Trading liberty for illusions by Wendy Kam.pdf
- 1. Summarize the article "Trading liberty for illusions" by Wendy Kaminer in 300 words by following these steps: - the central idea of the passage - what, who, why, where, when and how - the author's conclusion - the subject of the description and it's key feature(s) Solution The central idea of the article is about how the September 11 attacks have affected the civilian population. In such circumstances, people are really scary and it is the responsibility of the government to take all necessary precautions to secure its citizens. But the actions adhered to go beyond the logical approach to safety by using several surveillance devices to track criminals or abnormal behavior. Kaminer accuses government of ignoring the civil liberties and the processes followed were pointless and demonstrated its failures. She further adds that Americans have had to trade their privacy with security, which means there is no privacy. The ways facial recognition was used and abused, she says it constitutes a threat to security and liberty, not a promise of security. The hard-core trained criminals fooled the intelligence surveillance system by suppressing their emotions, behaviors, and facial expressions which proved the systems to be highly inefficient. This leaves technology surveillance system a very controversial topic in the United States. She goes on to say that the government is divided between using law as it was intended or breaking law to meet special interest breaching security of the people it is supposed to protect. The government should not exploit the gullibility of the citizens, for dissenters will start questioning the credibility of the American philosophy. What she concludes is that though technological advancement is geared up at improving security, it should be relied upon as the most accurate measure against threat. The government need a sober approach to security and privacy and should not rely upon the existing systems, laws, and technology. *****
