	Video game controversy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The ESRB silenced many critics, or at least reduced the exposure of the controversy in the media for about four years, until games such as Postal, Carmageddon and the afore-mentioned Grand Theft Auto were suddenly released in 1997, attracting the attention of the general media to the issue again.
		Controversy of speeding and evading the authority in racing games has surfaced when a title from the Need for Speed series was found on one of the street racer's car in Toronto in January 26, 2006, when two street racers were involved in an accident resulting a taxi-driver's death.
		Response to controversies over sexuality is generally in the form of indignation that video games are singled out where movies, books, and television shows are not (despite the fact that Hollywood exercised the Hays code to ban any movie which violated its strict moral sense in the early half of the century).

	Academic Controversy
		Controversy exists when one person's ideas, information, conclusions, theories, and opinions are incompatible with those of another, and the two seek to reach an agreement (Johnson and Johnson, 1995).
		Controversies are inherent in both academic content (intellectual issues exist in every academic discipline and subject area) and cooperative groups (members have different ideas, opinions, and conclusions as they are working together to complete assignments and master learning).
		Academic controversy is a cooperative learning strategy and, therefore, must be carefully structured to include positive interdependence, face-to-face promotive interaction, individual and group accountability, interpersonal and small group skills, and group processing.

	Amazon.co.uk: Controversy: Music (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		CONTROVERSY is the fourth release from Prince, and it continues in the tradition of his debut DIRTY MIND, with funky rhythms, throbbing electronic accents and titillating lyrics.
		Controversy finds Prince in something of a transitional phase, making a deliberate step away from the heavily RandB rooted sound of his earlier works towards the "whiter" rock sound of 1999 and Purple Rain.
		Controversy is not usually highly acclaimed by the critics, but to my ears all the Prince magic is here, and it has aged remarkably well.

	BeeSource.com \| POV \| Wenner \| THE HONEY BEE DANCE LANGUAGE CONTROVERSY
		Gould argued that the controversy arose due to a difference in training techniques: Wenner's training method encouraged bees to rely on odor, while von Frisch's training method led them to use the dance cues.
		One reason that the controversy has lasted for about three decades is that this hypothesis has been interpreted differently by the various protagonists.
		It appears that the controversy is partly of a semantic nature.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Easter Controversy
		It was to the divergent cycles which Rome had successively adopted and rejected in its attempt to determine Easter more accurately that the third stage in the paschal controversy was mainly due.
		(See, however, the very opposite conclusions of Joseph Schmid, ("Die Osterfestberechnung auf den britischen Inseln", 1904.) The story of this controversy, which together with the difference in the shape of tonsure, seems to have prevented all fraternization between the British Christians and the Roman missionaries, is told at length in the pages of Bede.
		These are the facts regarding the Easter controversy which are now generally admitted.

	Prince : Controversy - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
		Controversy continues in the same vein of new wave-tinged funk on Dirty Mind, emphasizing Prince's fascination with synthesizers and synthesizing disparate pop music genres.
		It is also more ambitious than its predecessor, attempting to tackle social protest ("Controversy," "Ronnie, Talk to Russia," "Annie Christian") along with sex songs ("Jack U Off," "Sexuality"), and it tries hard to bring funk to a rock audience and vice versa.
		Even with all of Prince's ambitions, the music on Controversy doesn't represent a significant breakthrough from Dirty Mind, and it is often considerably less catchy and memorable.

		The controversies described n his book cover a broad span of time, from the work of Harvey in the early 1600s to research on the human immunodeficiency virus in the 1980s.
		The fact that there are so many different types of surgery offered demonstrates that no one surgery has emerged as the “ideal” surgery as the treatment for severe obesity. Each surgical procedure has its own advantages as well as its attendant problems and complications.

	The Controversy
		Wildlife managers see wild horses as intruders on wildlife habitats where more worthy "native" species hold, in their view, a priority status.
		The controversy is fanned by such issues as ascertaining accurate wild horse numbers.
		While the BLM is mandated to conduct periodic censusing of wild horses within herd management areas, their censusing figures are constantly questioned by wild horse advocates, who feel the BLM inflates horse numbers, allowing the government agency to round up more horses than necessary.

	Is Controversy Christian?
		To them, disagreement, debate, and division over religious issues is quite deplorable and, in their judgment, contrary to the spirit of Christ and detrimental to His cause.
		Controversy and a bad spirit are, in their estimation, synonymous terms, and to strenuously oppose what is wrong is considered as contrary to Christian meekness.
		Controversy in local churches is sometimes very healthy if righteousness and New Testament principles are being defended.
