colorful, icons are blinking and it can talk to

gathering information which will change the world

Cosa Nostra Organized Crime

shed on the current status of organized crime in
the world today. The days of crime families

opened the doors to a land of endless wealth and
opportunity that all the major crime syndicates
have taken advantage of. Sterling suggests that
the early 90 's was the beginning of a convergence
of all great cri...

Meaning Of Life Living Thing

Is science the true nature of the meaning of life
or is religion? That is the major question among
scientists and religious leaders alike. While most
fact minded people believe that science is the
search for truth and only through it will we find
the meaning of life, 95 % of the rest of the world
believe in a superior being that is either the
spiritual create or something supernatural that
binds all things in existance. What I propose is a
combination of the two. What if we all have an

National Park Service Eastern Philosophy
1,544 words
Urban sprawl is not a new phenomenon, and the
battle between environmentalists and developers is
well-known. But perhaps the issue is not that the
land is being utterly stripped of life and
replaced by cookie cutter houses or factories,
which has been a controversy for decades. Perhaps
the fighting has exposed a deeper problem: the
American acceptance of a false outside, seen
through lawns that mimic interiors. People often
perceive that any green space is nature. As
Michael Ventura says, ? Amer...

astrology is surprisingly rare. The ancient Greek
philosophers, whatever their intellectual
attitudes towards astrology may have been, were
certainly not ignorant of astrological teachings
and ideas. It was they, after all who put forward
the idea of the Music of the Spheres, the idea
that these vast objects twirling around and
whirling through space, must have hummed a tone as
they went along their courses, much as a ball spun

War Of The Worlds Martian Chronicles

Style is one of the most important aspects of any
artist. B. B. Kings playing, Poe's gloom, and
Salvador Dali's abstractness are all part of their
individual style. It helps the average person to
identify the artist, whether it may be a musician,
writer or painter. Although Bradbury and Wells may
both been writing science fiction, they each had
their own style. Bradbury and Wells have many of
the same stylistic features, but they also have
contrasting traits in their writing. Martian

Murdered His Father Tragic Flaw

Hamlet Hamlets Hamartia Hamlets Hamartia Hamlet is
the most written about tragedy in the history of
man. But, why is it a tragedy? Is it because
Hamlet has a tragic flaw that creates his

against him since the beginning of the play and
there is no way he can prevail? I believe that it
