- 6001: Report On Book Titled Black Li
- ... have done something to help him in some fashion. I think that I am more of a leader than a follower more of an activist. I stand for my rights as well as other people s rights. I was very secure in my feelings through the book in that I was brought up to have an open mind about others racial backgrounds as well as my own. The whole concept of ... the line and lost control. I like to debate over things with others and argue my point until it is at least seen why I feel the way that I do, even if the person(s) so not feel the same way as I do. I feel as if sitting back and letting bigotry and hatred hover over people like a rain cloud waiting to explode into a monsoon is worse than saying all the snide remarks that kill a mans good heart. No man should have to be put under such harsh ridicule simply for being born with his parent s heritage. Under no circumstances is it morally right to purposely, repeatedly, bash someone for something, anything, never mind something that they cannot control or change. This world evolved form one-celled organisms to forests ...
- 6002: Hamlet
- In William Shakespeare's Hamlet, the protagonist exhibits a puzzling, duplicitous nature. Hamlet contradicts himself throughout the play. He endorses both the virtues of acting a role and that of being true to one's self. He further supports both of these conflicting endorsements with his actions. This ambiguity is demonstrated by his alleged madness, for he does behave madly,only to become perfectly calm and rational an instant later. These inconsistencies are related with the internal dilemmas he faces. He struggles with the issue of revenging his father's death-vowing to kill Claudius and then backing out, several times. Upon this point Hamlet stammers through the play. The reason for this teetering is directly related to his inability to form a solid ...
- 6003: In Search Of Our Mothers' Gardens and Everyday Use: Honoring Heritage
- In Search Of Our Mothers' Gardens and Everyday Use: Honoring Heritage In Alice Walker’s “In Search of Our Mothers’ Gardens” and in “Everyday Use,” the author’s different stories of heritage demonstrate the conflicting ideas of how to honor one’s heritage, even though there are various ways discussed to honor heritage all are correct. In “Everyday Use,” the narrator discusses her heritage through quilts made by her mother and grandmother and through how her ...
- 6004: Camus The Outsider Vs. Bolts A
- ... relates to Candide in a manner slightly different than most of the other characters. While most other characters differ from Candide by their pessimism (most notable Martin, who seems to be the antitheses of Candide's optimism), Lord Pococurante is unhappy with life because he is supremely jaded with what the world has to offer. He is thus Candide's opposite as much as Martin, though the opposition is based upon the noble's jaded state versus Candide's naive one. By the book's conclusion Candide is no longer convinced of Pangloss' philosophy, throwing out systematic optimism. Voltaire has thus used Candide to show the effects of ...
- 6005: Adam Smith-free Trade
- In the earlier days of recorded history, nations traded to obtain more goods, especially those they couldn't produce themselves, which seems like a logical enough motive. But by the 17th century, this motive for trade gradually eroded. The desire for goods was replaced by the desire to accumulate gold instead. This seemingly ... there is no place in a rational world for measures to restrict trade through artificial barriers such as tariffs and import quotas. Smith also elaborated how people gain by pursuing their own self-interest. "It's not from the benevolence of the baker, the brewer, or the butcher that we expect our dinner, but from their regard for their own self interest," Smith said in one of his most famous quotes (Pool and Stamos 8). People specialize in doing whatever they can do best and exchange it for something else. In the process more is produced and everyone's income and standard of living is improved. When applied to nations trading internationally the same reasoning applies. The theory that explains this is comparative advantage, it posits "that all countries benefit when nations specialize ...
- 6006: An American Shame
- ... the White House (They may well change it to "The Whore House" now!) Bill Clinton is the lowest form of life to ever slither under the White House door. But he was the News Mafia's choice and they have proved that they will stop at nothing to defend their interest in controlling the former "land of the free and the home of the brave." Americans, addicted to the dope of ... be independent of their televison masters. They never bothered to think even once. They simply turned their brains off and parroted the News Mafia GOD whenever they were asked what they "thought". Forget Clinton. He's not the problem. He only molested one American. The God-bashing, freedom-hating News Mafia has raped every man, woman and child in the country. They have probably succeeded in murdering the last thin thread of morality in this nation, which was their goal. If you thought things were bad before, fasten your seat belt. Wait till the moral lesson of Clinton's acquittal "trickles down" to the dull-brained teenage murders being trained in public schools. Wait until they realize that there are two separate systems of "law & order" in America. One for Liberals. One for ...
- 6007: Great Gatsby: Theme And Character Anlysis Of Tom And Daisy
- Great Gatsby: Theme And Character Anlysis Of Tom And Daisy Greed, Corruption, the Search of One’s Self and the 1920's The characters' search of their own identities and the struggle that ensues is the most suffusive theme throughout The Great Gatsby . The fact that we never really know the characters, and the corrupt immoral things they do, directly represent the 20's high society lifestyle. The characters continued to cheat on their spouses, let money become their obsession, and debated the American dream for the hopes of one day obtaining happiness. But the fact remains that ...
- 6008: Hamlet 8
- ... method to his madness In Hamlet, there is two characters who fit a mad description, one truly mad, and one only acting mad to serve a plot. Ophelia and Hamlet, with argument to the other s madness or sanity, Hamlet s character offers more evidence, while Operlia s breakdown is quick, but more precise in its madness. If Hamlet were to see his father s ghost in private, the argument for his madness would greatly improve. The fact that three men together, ...
- 6009: How To Produce A High School Newspaper
- ... for guidance and assistance. All of a sudden, a piercing ringing of the bell indicated that it was time for me to begin. I was the person in charge of nineteen fellow peers. I wasn’t sure what to expect while hundreds of questions raced through my mind: What if they don’t listen to me? What if I’m not experienced enough? Can I just forget about this and go home? The first day of class was the most nerve wracking and scariest day I have ever ... most important is the ability to manage and organize a group of people within an allotted amount of time. Patience is also crucial in order to understand and help other staff members. However, when it’s completed, the satisfaction is its own reward.

- 6010: The Accidental Tourest
- ... in control of his life. In this scene not only does Macon take a major action on his own for the first time, but he also finally begins to cope with, and accept his son's death. One thing in this scene that helps us to see how Macon has changed comes on page 339. Macon is reflecting back on his life, and he realizes that he "had not taken steps very often in his life, come to think of it, really never. His marriage, his two jobs, his relationship with Muriel, his return to Sarah-all seemed to have simply befallen him. He couldn't think of a single major act he had managed of his own accord."(339) In thinking this, Macon is realizing that he has dedicated a great deal of time using systems and finding other ways ... never put much thought, or attempted to take much control of the major aspects of his life. This realization prompts Macon to wonder "Is it to late now to begin."
