- 1051: Ethan Frome 7
- ... witch baby (Matthiessen 104). She is a baffling mixture of strong emotions with a fierce temper and a capacity for evil. With Pearl, Hester s life became one of constant nagging, and no joy. The child could not be made amenable to rules. Hester even remarks to herself, Oh Father in heaven if thou art still my father what is this being which I have brought into the world (Hawthorne 89 ... 108). Their sins include lying to the people about the affair that led to Pearl. Hester realizes what Pearl represents when she does not hold Pearl up in front of the A. She carries the child around because it is a direct reflection of her sin. Hester is, wisely judging that one token of her shame would but poorly serve to hide another (Hawthorne 48). Dimmesdale s sin is not adultery ... into something overpowering and horrible, it is Pearl who points at it, smiling at her mother with the elfish intelligence that was so familiar an expression on her small physiognomy (Hawthorne 99). Even as a child, Pearl is affixed to the letter and, putting up her little hand, she grasped it, [the letter] smiling, not doubtfully, but Piyasena/Pine 4 with a decided gleam (Hawthorne 90). Pearl s tendency to ...
- 1052: Cloning
- ... fertility clinic will clone an embryo, then test it for genetic disorders. If the embryo tests negative for genetic disorders, then the fertility clinic implants a clone of that embryo. This should guarantee that the child would not have any genetic disorders. (Benoit 2) Amazingly, the first attempts at artificial cloning were as early as the beginning of this century. Adolph Eduard Driesch allowed the eggs of a sea urchin develop ... to many diseases. There are also possibilities that nuclear transfer could provide benefits to those who would like children. For instance, couples who are infertile, or have genetic disorders, could use cloning to produce a child. Equally important, women who are single could have a child using cloning instead of in-vitro fertilization. Nuclear transfer could also provide children who need organ transplants to have a clone born to donate organs. Cloning could also provide a copy of a child ...
- 1053: Dawn
- ... the difference between night and day. Narrator met him while he was at the synagogue. The man wears black clothes. The narrator met the man when he was 12 years old. The narrator, as a child admitted to the beggar that he was definitely afraid of the beggar. "Night is purer than day; it is better for thinking and loving and dreaming." (4) The man wants to teach the narrator to ... arms or legs or mouth or head; it is all eyes. If you ever meet a creature with eyes everywhere. You can be sure that it is death."

- 1054: Genetic Engineering 4
- ... possessed of entirely different experience and background (Vere 3). A mixture between two people's genetic structure could provide a way for infertile couples or homosexual couples with a way to create a genetically related child. There are many couples in the world of which one of the partners is unable to naturally donate his/her genes for the purpose of procreation. Only through cloning technology will they be able to give birth to a child that is related to them genetically. Ensuring that the families genes are passed on to future generations would be more appealing to parents than adoption or using sperm and eggs from an unrelated donor. In late 1997 Richard Seed announced that he would attempt to create a child using cloning technology, and his post menopausal wife would be carrying the child. "Seed, with no medical credentials or funding, is not expected to succeed (McFarling 2) . . ." It is possible to create a full ...
- 1055: Ernest Hemingway and A Farewell to Arms
- ... that Hemingway's romance was short-lived, while, the book seemed to indicate that, Henry's romance, though they never married, was strong and would have lasted. In A Farewell to Arms, Catherine and her child died while she was giving birth, this was not the case with Agnes who left Henry for an Italian Army officer. It seems to me that the differences between the two men were only surface ... to expose his life to everyone, and so the slight changes would prove that it was not himself and his own experiences which he was writing about. I believe that Hemingway had Catherine and her child die, not to look different from his own life, but because he had a sick and morbid personality. There is great power in being an author, you can make things happen which do not necessarily occur in real life. It is obvious that Hemingway felt, as a young child and throughout his life, powerless, and so he created lives by writing stories. Hemingway acted out his feelings of inadequacy and powerlessness by hunting, drinking, spending lots of money and having many girlfriends. I ...

- ... As a mother I have cared and tried to push my son s education so that he can succeed in his life. I came from a large family in Brazil.

My father was a serious man; he had a job, and still came home to provide for all of ... man, and meals should be shared with the family as well as conversations. No one had any choice of not sitting at the table, unless we didn t want to eat. When I had a child, I waited for the right time to have one. I didn t want to rush into motherhood responsibility until I had everything in order to support my child. My husband had to find a job, and so did I.

Crucial to the system is the facilitator establishing and maintaining a "Locus of Control." The child must learn to go along with the group. If not, the process must create a conflict in the child that will lead to a change in that behavior. This operant conditioning technique becomes part of teacher retraining. The real goal of OBE, it thus becomes clear, is just what the experts say it is ... academics. It was developed by Chester Finn. The Goals 2000, Educate America Act, signed by Bill Clinton, is legislation specifying: 1. School based clinics.

- 1059: Homosexuality
- ... that the children they raise will be fine. They claim that homosexuality in and of itself does not make one an inherently poor parent. This seems quite ridiculous when you consider the issue from the child’s point of view rather than that of the homosexual, whom would obviously be thrilled to raise a child. The child however, would grow up with his personality, lifestyle, and attitude being formed by homosexuals. The problem here is that such input from a decidedly unpopular point of view might not properly prepare the child ...
