- 21261: Analysis Of An Essay On Aborti
- ... society today. As well as the article “Abortion” by Selzer, I have also read Mortal Lessons, a book he had also written. Selzer is an author who wrote in order to describe “unsparingly the surgeon’s art, opening up the body to view one part at a time.” The article “Abortion” classifies him as a doctor, but the way in which he writes makes him a philosopher as well. Selzer not ... never seen before was something that shocked and amazed him. He though he saw the fetus “struggling against the needle (281)” trying to get away from it. He observed that the needle inside the woman’s stomach was moving and believed that to be the fetus fighting against what it instinctively knew as death. These observations, in my eyes, make him a philosopher. He not only thinks about the woman having ... which I think are right to have an abortion, such as being rapped. It is true that after anyone is violated in that way, no one is going to want to carry around a rapist’s baby to remind you of how you were abused. This is one way that I think is acceptable to have an abortion. To have an abortion because you are not responsible enough to use ...

This is not to say that the preferential rights of a coastal State in a special situation are a static concept, in the sense that the degree of the coastal State's preference is to be considered as for ever at some given moment.

- 21264: The Internet
- ... a very specific subject in mind (as the majority of our fellow humans do) turns this tool into a horrific waste of time. And the vast information stored here is useless, as if it wasn't there. Secondly, to get anything interesting or informative from the web, no matter what the subject, one must know its exact location, else one is compelled to dive into a muddy flood of shit. This ... any piece of data. When a stupid chick posts some info that her doggie just pissed on the carpet and she includes on the web page a picture of her with the dog, I wouldn't even call it "data". I call it a scandal. And I waste my time downloading this crap because it happened that this rotten dog is named Io, the same name as one of Jupiter's moons, pictures of which I wanted to look at. Now you know what I'm talking about. Therefore I say that www enthusiasts talk of "flow of information", when there is virtually no information. ...
- 21265: All Quiet On the Western Front: The Destructiveness of War
- ... hip wound. Behm was shot in the eye. Haie Westhus was shot in the back. Berger received a wound to the pelvis. Last of all, Katczinsky with a splinter in the head. Here is Paul’s description of one of the few horrifying sights he saw with his young eyes: “Beside me a lance-corporal has his head torn off. He runs a few steps more while the blood spouts from his neck like a fountain” (pg.115). Another incredible moment is stated on page 117, it says, “I fall into an open belly on which lies a clean, new officer’s cap.” These physical and emotional terrors cannot be healed completely neither the ones who saw them nor the ones who received them. Their pain is followed by deep scars, invisible to the common observer. The physical destructiveness of war put soldiers on an emotional rollercoaster. Horrifying, unimaginable encounters changed them in ways they didn’t understand. For years, rumors of agreement between countries left the hopes of many men unfulfilled. The soldiers soon came to not recognize themselves. Paul describes he and his company as “wild beasts, not fighting ...
- 21266: A Freudian Turn of the Screw
- A Freudian Turn of the Screw There is one question about The Turn of the Screw that has never and probably will never be answered to everyone’s total satisfaction. Is it a ghost story or is it a psychiatric case history? The story which for years was presumed by most to just be a mere ghost story has in later years, after ... is a psychological thriller and an overall thought provoking topic. There are three major areas in which the story seems to be more psychological: The use of symbolism, the mentality and background of the story’s characters, and the center of consciousness point of view. Although Henry James never committed to ghost story or psychological meanings, it is almost too obvious that there were hidden messages. Henry James can capture a reader by the imagination and hard thinking. There is enough evidence to convince proponents of either opinion.

- 21267: Gun Control- A Firing Issue
- ... done nothing to reduce crime; in fact violence has risen still since the passage of the bill. This bill, which was most definitely oversold by its supporters, has become the prime distinction in most American’s minds with gun control. A waiting period did not help the present situation at all, and similar measures are almost certainly going to assume the same fate. Private ownership of firearms is not a public ... going to reduce crime. Gun control activists say that waiting periods will reduce the number of criminals who obtain firearms, but the NRA says that waiting periods are ineffective. They argue that if a criminal’s mind were set on committing a crime, a waiting period would merely become another obstacle. Even if a background check were to take place during the waiting period, and the criminal was denied the sale ... present or not. Guns stored at home are not great dangers to innocent people like children, despite what the public thinks. The slogan of the National Rifle Association says it the best, “guns don’t kill, people do” (NRA). Children who are properly taught gun-safety measures are less likely to be involved in gun-related accidents or with crime. If an adult in the household has access to ...

- 21270: Power Generation In The Future What We Should Do In Australi
- Based on the current technology regarding power sources we believe that Australia’s total power usage should be divided between these four sources using the percentage specified (reasons why are listed below): Nuclear Power – 50% Coal Power – 25% Solar Power – 15% Wind Power – 10% Nuclear Nuclear should generate ... generate 15% because it is not a reliable power source: the sun does not shine 24 hours a day, 7 days a week in one spot. If the weather does change and the panels can’t generate the power required the nuclear plant/s can fluctuate to cope with the power needs of the general population. Solar power uses an infinite resource so it is worthwhile making use of. Wind Wind “farms” should be used in conjunction with ...
