Answer to Question 1

Police do not have the resources to respond to every crime. Private security
o personnel serve as extra eyes and ears to observe crime and notify authorities.
The demand for private security generates nearly 50 billion a year.
Approximately 1.1 million people provide private security services.
o The presence of private security officers may deter would-be criminals from offending.
There are four factors that are driving the growth of private security. They include:

increase in fear of the public
o the problem of crime in the workplace

budget cuts in public policing

a rising awareness of private security products and services as cost- effective protective measures
o
Terrorism also contributes to the increase in the use of private security in that they protect many of the nation's likely terrorist targets including power plants, financial centers, malls, and transportation hubs.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.

Dogs have been used in studies to detect various cancers in human subjects. They have been trained to sniff breath samples from humans that were collected by having them breathe into special tubes. These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
