Males And Females Communication Style

The article that I located is Gender and Language
Use is by Laden Meunier. I found this article very
fascinating and very informative. It covered the
differences in gender speech patterns and the
differences in gender communication. The article
implies that as a child we are taught how to
behave and communicate according to our gender.
The writer contends that it is nurture rather than
nature that molds the way males and females
respond and communicate with each other. The
author included variou...

After preparing for a long day of movie watching I
reluctantly put the first tape in to the VCR. I
was armed with a bottle of water, a vegetarian
sandwich, and a pillow. I figured these supplies
would get me through the first half. When it was
all said and done I realized that the movie was
exceptional. Besides being a little on the long
side the move, Ghandi was in depth, enjoyable and
realistic. Even though I complained I found that
this movie was very good. I would recommend it to

Human Or Mortal Odyssey By Homer Odysseus
521 words
Odysseus, son of Laertes, was godlike in many
ways, but he also showed some human or mortal
characteristics. In The Odyssey by Homer, he shows
this in a few ways while on his way home to Ithica
from the land of the Lotus-eaters, and also when
he is home. Either something upsets him like a
human would get upset, or he does something a
human would do and normally wouldnt see from a
god. First, I noticed when he was escaping for the
Cyclops cave, he had to get the last word in: If,

Hamlet And Ophelia Series Of Events
1,685 words
The Madness of Hamlet and Ophelia It was
fascinating to look at how many characters in
Shakespeare s plays poked at the brink of
insanity. It seems to me, the plays couldn t have
been tragedies if this didn t happen. In the plays
we read, important characters evolved into
madness, the plot thickened, figures died, and the
tragedy prevailed. It was really interesting to
see how this series of events would be an ongoing
theme in the Shakespearean plays. Even though the
same outcome was to be expec...

HOW WOULD YOU FEEL? A wound becomes a scar that
goes away or stays forever; of course, this
depends on how deep the wound is. Scars that are
permanent are usually unpleasant to see and cause
embarrassment. Though scars usually occur on the
skin they can also make their mark on the heart.
Scars to the heart are not made physically but
emotionally. It is said that these types of scars
are permanent if not deadly due to their cause. I

Shhhhhhhhhh! Is the sound I heard from the flames
engulfing the forest of an island. Today was a
really interesting day for me. I was making my
normal routine border scan in my Naval Cruiser
ship when I noticed an enormous amount of smoke
rising up from a nearby island. My first thought
on seeing the smoke was that I thought that a
plane had crashed on the island or that it was
some kind of natural forest fire. I exited my
water vehicle, and I was fully equipped with my
