An examination of pun and word play as a narrative
technique in Margaret Atwood's The Handmaids Tale

Waste Of Time Open Minded
392 words
[This must be one of those best or worst titles
for an essay. It must be one of the situations in
which "you either hate it or love it", a statement
many critics use to implicitly claim that either
all or most people are incapable of being open -
minded. Maybe this essay comes from a dearth,
deprivation of open - minded - ness from a
depraved person. Maybe anger was the result of
causes that remain inconspicuous, and I foolishly
blame others who are different in personality,
expression, etc. ] I...

Space And Time Intelligent Life

The scientific community is largely in agreement
on the fact that life began here on Earth about
three and a half billion years ago. In a universe
ruled over largely by entropy, it is inane to say
that any set of circumstances could be completely
unique. The primordial constituents of Earths
atmosphere gave way to the building blocks of
life, as could and in all likelihood has happened
elsewhere in the vastness of space and time. Since
the dawn of mankind, we have looked to the stars

Role In The Nitrogen Cycle Nitrogen From The Atmosphere Tree
374 words
The nitrogen cycle is a complex biological cycle
involving the recycling of usable nitrogen. If
this cycle ceased to occur, all forms of life on
the planet would die. All life forms, including
humans, use nitrogen in compounds called amino
acids. These amino acids then act as building
blocks for proteins. Nitrogen, in fact, is the
most abundant element in the atmosphere. Most
organisms are unable to use this nitrogen from the
atmosphere and rely on the nitrogen in the soil.
The cycle consists of...

Social Security Act Stay At Home
1,071 words
Welfare: handouts to the lazy, or a helping hand
to those facing hard times? The debate continues,
even in the face of sweeping welfare reform,
which, for all of its sound and fury, has not
helped or changed much. What's wrong with welfare
and how can we fix it? This is not a simple
question, and there is no simple answer. However,
one thing remains eminently clear. Welfare
desperately needs to change. But where are we now?
Are we headed backward or forward? Does anybody
even care? To answer the...

Death Rate One Problem
371 words
Medieval towns were very small, leaving very
little room for expanding, therefore the roads,
and the houses were very small. Since the houses
were made out of wood and were so close together
the risk of a big fire was great because the fires
were always in the house. Even though the town was
built so close together that wasnt the worst part.
Since the people back then had not come out with
water and sewage systems, people threw out all
their waste into the middle of the street where
other people...

Don T Realize Realize How Precious Life

Our Town, a play by Thornton Wilder, is a play
that presents the most simple aspects of life.
That s what it was to be alive. To move about in a
cloud of ignorance; to go up and down trampling on
the feelings of those... of those about you. To
spend and waste time as though you had a million
years. To be always at the mercy of one
self-centered passion, or another. This statement
made by Simon Stimson in the third act, holds a
certain amount of truth to it. It says that we all
