individual is addicted to alcohol and its relaxing
effects. There is a theory that holds that
addiction fits many criteria used to define other
diseases and should therefore be treated as a
disease. The individual depends on alcohol to get
through the day or night, solve their problems,
ease their depression, or no reason at all.

Abuse, an addiction is an uncontrollable
compulsion to use a drug or other ...

Denise is a very attractive girl with her head
screwed on straight. She has a 4. 0 grade point
average at Spelman College. She comes from a very

Computers seem to control our lives. It is hard to
live without a computer, and no matter how hard
you try to remove yourself from computers, they

good that computers make things simple. "The
Jetsons" was a cartoon where computers controlled
the world; their maid was a robot while a computer
guided the family to do simple tasks, such as
showering and styling hair. It seems that the
Jetsons world would be an ideal world to live in,

Toni Morrison Bluest Eye

"Anger is better than shame. There is a sense of
being in anger. A reality of presence. An
awareness of worth. " (50) This is how many of the
African Americans in Toni Morrison's The Bluest
Eye felt. They faked love when they felt powerless
to hate, and destroyed what love they did have
with anger. The Bluest Eye shows the way that the
blacks were compelled to place their anger on
their own families and on their own blackness
instead of on the white people who were the cause
of their misery. In ...

The homeless are homeless due to some
circumstances beyond their control. However, the
government and the public do nothing to help this

Analysis Of The Ministers Black Veil Character

I chose to write on Hawthorne's, The Ministers
Black Veil. I considered the characters in the
story intriguing, from the mystery they portrayed.
The characters in this story, and any story,
consist of a protagonist and an antagonist. Some
label the protagonist as the good guy, or white
hat, and the antagonist the bad guy, or black hat.
The protagonist in this story was Mr. Hooper. He
was the town reverend, and everyone listened to
his word on every Sabbath day. The people of the
town were fright...

Starting with Porphyrias Lover, he went on to
perfect this form authoring many famous works in
the process. This poem, once a collection under
the title, The Madhouse Cells, depicts an

the distrust that will normally come from finding

Choice Of Words Captain Ahab

We use words every single day of our lives. Its
the easiest way for humans to communicate. Without
words, we would be left with only grunts, and
gestures. This demonstrates how important, and
powerful, words are. But just how powerful are
words? Words have been known to cause wars, or
create peace. In fact, the words one chooses can
mean the difference between anger and peace. Take
for instance, the synonyms of shut-up and be
quiet. Though they both mean the same thing,
shut-up has a much greate...
