- 711: Reforms Are Need In Canada's Government
- ... power appoints Senators when vacancies occur, the tendency has been to appoint people with connections to that party. This means that the Senate is neither representative of all ideologies nor reflective of the people's interest. No member of the Senate, for example, reflects the New Democratic Party's view, since that party has never been in power. Therefore that portion of Canada who supports the NDP is certainly not represented ... an absolute majority to reject the Senatu's proposals for the bill, or else the Senatu's decision is final. The Senatu also approves the decision of the President for national referendums on matters of interest to the State. No member of the Polish Senatu belongs to an official registered party. This is significant because it removes the risk of party bias. As well, any citizen may run for the Senatu ... parliamentary elections. The Prime Minister is not the head of the Senate, and therefore should not decide the actions of the Senate. Therefore, having a fixed date will ensure that there is no conflict of interest.

- 712: Claude Monet
- ... Le Havre. Most of his childhood, Monet was considered by both his teachers and his parents to be undisciplined and, therefore, unlikely to make a success of his life. Enforcing this impression, Monet showed no interest in inheriting his father's wholesale grocery. The only thing, which seemed to spark any interest in the child, was painting. He developed a decent reputation in school for the caricatures he enjoyed creating. By the age of fifteen, he was receiving money for his work. It was at Le Havre ... had a relationship that was to last a lifetime. Although Monet soon left Le Havre to spend a large part of his life travelling throughout Europe, he returned frequently to visit his old friend. The interest that had been made some years earlier was refined and shaped. "My eyes were finally opened and I understood nature; I learned at the same time to love it." Boudin may have opened Monet' ...
- 713: Frankenstein
- ... bright young man with a dark fascination which began as a child, with the raising of ghosts or devils... a promise liberally accorded by my favorite authors (Shelley 20). First manifesting itself as a deep interest in science while a college student, it grew into an obsession with the dead. While listening to his professor speak, increasingly tormented Victor lamented, I felt as if my soul were grappling with a palpable ... medium. As Professor Peter Pelzer wrote, It proved that Gothic could be revitalized by reshaping it to meet the changing interests in society. Shelley combined the intended shock, the feeling of horror with the new interest in science and humanity of her age. On the one hand purposely rooted in the Gothic tradition, she was showing on the other hand the ways out of the limits of the genre for further ... the reader feel his nothingness (Pelzer pelzer.htm). With Frankenstein, Mary Shelley not only mastered the Gothic form which had mesmerized her as a child, she improved upon it, leaving the indelible marks of her interest in the supernatural, her unlimited imagination, and her concerns for society. Gothic novels not only explore horror through their characters, but they also bring their readers in touch with their own fears. The Gothic ...

- ... is divided in two parts, first I am concerned with the writing style and second with the character presentation. To begin with I have to say that this story is one that keeps the readers interest undiminished. It has a complex plot and many questions arise when reading through it. Basically what is creating this is the lack of chronological order in the evolution of the facts that are presented. Things ... the reader receives information that show this for them. On the other hand, the other story that is going to be discussed is Dry September , which as well is a story that keeps the readers interest in high levels, due to the interesting plot that it has, and the various changes in it.

- ... in turn lead to decision making. Those who propose alternatives and initiate issues which contribute to the decision making process are demonstrating observable influence and control over those who failed all together to express any interest in the political process. The Pluralist approach assumes that in an open system, all people, not just the elite, would participate in decision making if they felt strongly enough about an issue and wanted their ... of grievances and a consensus with the way the leaders are already handling the system. Political inaction is not a problem within the one-dimensional system, it merely reflects apathy of ordinary citizens with little interest or knowledge for political matters, and their acceptance of the existing system which they see as rewarding mutual benefits to society. While politics is primarily an elite concern to the pluralist, ordinary people can have ... History of Central Appalachia has developed much like that of a primitive country under the influence of colonization by a dominant world power. It is one in which an isolated, agrarian society has sparked the interest of the industrialized world as having economic potential, and has consequently been established as a dependant and thrust into a rapid series of transformation to bring it up to modern standards. Productivity and economic ...

- 718: Mass Media, Sex, and Pornography
- ... deliberately create images of hate or disagreement (Howitt, Cumberbatch 1975:80). They just influence the more appealing things in society (thus directly increasing their ratings). Although it is obvious that pornography is largely a male interest, a noted increase in female interest would certainly cause an increase in the amount of pornographic material geared for women; this relates to the laws of the business world (Christensen 1990:50). Having discussed the untruthfulness of the claims against pornography ... media such as Reader's Digest (Howitt, Cumberbatch 1975:80). The study was conducted over a three week period over which time it was discovered that the males involved in the experiment began to lose interest, or become desensitized to the erotic media nearing the end of the experiment, even if new material was added.

- ... of diabetes mellitus. The hormone is synthesized in beta cells, which are included in separated groups of hormone-secreting cells of the pancreas known as the islets of Langerhans. Insulin is secreted continually at varying rates and acts in fine tune with hormones (glucagon, catecholamines) that raise blood sugar to maintain blood sugar levels within very narrow limits (about 80 to 100 mg/100 ml of blood). The creation of insulin ... of donor genes from other organisms, including human beings. To perform gene cloning, researchers first use a class of bacterial enzymes: restriction endonulease to remove a fragment of double-stranded DNA, containing the genes of interest, from a donor. Restriction endonucleases can be thought of as "biological scissors"; each of these enzymes cleaves DNA at a specific site defined by a sequence of four or more nucleotides. (figure 2) Once the ...
