Yankee doodle dandies ... or doodle duds?

Article Abstract:

The California State Military Reserve has sparked continuous debates as to its functions. The militia is authorized to take over the National Guard's operations in case of war and serve as the state's last line of defense. However, its present function is limited to augmenting the National Guard's logistics. The State Military Department which oversees the unit is undecided about the its operations while legislators and citizens see the loosely-organized and ill-trained group as a threat to society. However, its members believe that the group should continue and that they can still serve their purpose.

Article Abstract:

The application of a conceptual model, based on staffing theory, on a sample of American workers revealed the utility of localized theories and fine-grained analysis of workplace events to enhance the qualitative nature of workplace research. Psychological theories can be of utility in providing insight on factors such as workload, work experience parameters, employee responses and work outcomes.

Why blacks get mad

Article Abstract:

Middle-class blacks continue to walk the line between the whites who stereotype them and blacks who think that they are traitors to the struggle against racism. It is imperative to institute reforms in the basically biased social system to prevent the outbreak of more violence.
