Cd Rom Hard Drive
1,879 words
Buying a Computer today is much more complicated
then it was ten years ago. The choices we have are
abundant, and the information we must gather to
make those choices is much greater. The average
consumer is a more educated buyer; they at least
have some ideas of what they want in a computer.
Yet, we must still ask ourselves these significant
questions; such as: What will the primary function
of my computer be? What computer components should
I consider at the time of purchase? How much money

The Bell Jar Cancer Versus Depression
1,962 words
Integrated into the story of The Bell Jar by
Sylvia Plath is a "case history" of a depression
patient, from it's subtle beginnings to it's
terrifying consequences to it's shaky resolution.
On the subject of this depression, there is an
article written by William Styron which, in the
course of describing his own dealings with the
disease, he compares it to cancer. It is my own
firm opinion that this assertion is perfectly
valid, and it can be shown through careful
analysis of the causes and effec...

Natural Law Universal Moral

... even to what Aquinas called the wise. The wise
formulate these elaborations only after intense
consideration, reflection, and experience, and the
common man learns these applications from the
wise. I have certain questions of the theory at
this point. From Aquinas through to contemporary
expositions, natural law theory has been founded
on the concept of analogy, the notion that human
reason reflects the eternal Reason that is God. At
best, this seems only formally true; that is, it
is true t...

"Active voluntary euthanasia is wrongful killing",
