Kobe Bryant American People
1,265 words
Every person everywhere in the United States is
consumed by what the media tells them: what to do,
what to wear, where to go to shop. People will
swear up and down that they want to have their own
identity, and they will even go to great lengths
to attain it, yet, inevitably, they all fall into
a "clique" with millions of others. Nobody wants
to be a follower, but in terms of youth culture,
nobody can really be a true leader. Nobody, that
is, except the media. The American people, young
and old ...

Humans Have Three Eyes Humans Have Three Winston

"Wake up!" a stern voice called from above. Her
weary eyes slowly began to open. It was absolutely
bright, however no windows were visible. Only
electric lights running endlessly in parallel
lines covered the ceiling of the hall. She was
sitting in the very centre; her head crouched
between her knees. She was afraid to speak or
question where she might be. She could hear
footsteps in the distant but could not make out
where they were coming from. The burning lights
had gradually blinded her eyes...

There was once a woodcutter who was cutting wood
near a river side, suddenly his axe fell into the
river, and this was indeed heart-breaking because
that was the only bread earning element of his
life. He started howling around, seeing which
river deity appeared and asked him about his
grief. To test him, she first showed him a golden
axe for which he rejected saying it was not his
axe. Second came the silver axe which was refused
too. At last, she showed him his axe, and the wood

Junk Mail And The Art Of Hype
1,036 words
The art of hype pervades advertising of all kinds.
You can see it everywhere you go. It's
characterized by its extensive use of exclamation
points, big words, powerful colors, and giant
pictures. You " re sure to see several trademark
symbols and percentages that they claim you will
save. What they hide are the details which are
quite often exceptions to their claims and end up
rendering their savings miniscule. These details
are usually confined to "fine print" which they
expect no one to read....

Witches And Lady Macbeth Macbeth To Kill Duncan
1,217 words
The tragic downfall of Macbeth was not determined
by one single cause. It was rather caused by a
combination of three dark forces: supernatural,
external, and internal. Supernatural forces are
represented by the three witches and dark powers
behind them. Lady Macbeth is an outer force that
pushes Macbeth towards the bloody deeds. Macbeth's
own ambition acts as deciding power in bringing
him to his downfall. The very beginning of the
play indicates that dark supernatural forces will
be involved. ...

Sites Some philosophers say that our
life is meaningless because it has a prescribed
end. This is a strange assertion: is a movie
rendered meaningless because of its finiteness?
Some things acquire a meaning precisely because
they are finite: consider academic studies, for
instance. It would seem that meaningfulness does
not depend upon matters temporary. We all share

My eyelids drooped as I poured yet another cup of

Physical And Mental Ted Bundy

Ted Bundy (1) When we discuss serial killers, it
is often impossible to suggest that social factors
alone were behind forming their anti-social
attitudes. With a case of Ted Bundy, we can say
that his behavior was for the most part
genetically predetermined. There is strong
evidence, which suggests that Bundy was being
conceived as the result of incest between his
mother and his grandfather Samuel Cowell. It is
well known fact that that reason why traditional
societies do not tolerate incest is ...

God Does Not Exist Concept Of God

For being accustomed in all other things to make a
distinction between existence and essence, I
easily persuade myself that existence may perhaps
be separated from the essence of God, and thus God
might be conceived as not existent actually. PROP.

God Exists Natural World
383 words
To say that God does exist, is to say that we can
prove God exists by describing some proof we have
of this statement, or at least a being with what
we think some of the attributes of a God would be.
Since we cannot prove beyond reasonable doubt that
God exists we have to infer certain things about
how we came to be. We can do this by using terms
such as motion and causality. These are terms that
attempt to explain that for every action there
must be a cause, or chain of events, In this case,
