be laying there for at least an hour before I get
to sleep and secondly because I never know what
may occur in my sleep. I lay down thinking about
the kind of career I want to follow. I start to
think about where I may have this career. I like
the idea of living on the borders of a large
sleepless city where I can have a changing high
paying career that will give me the money
necessary to support the lifestyle I want to live.

Shovel Nosed Sharks Christs March Toward Calvary Death
674 words
Christian symbolism, especially images that refer
to the crucifixion of Christ, is present
throughout The Old Man and the Sea. During the old
mans battle with the marlin, his palms are cut by
his fishing cable. Given Santiago's suffering and
willingness to sacrifice his life, the wounds are
suggestive of Christs stigmata, and Hemingway goes
on to portray the old man as a Christ-like martyr.
As soon as the sharks arrive, Santiago makes a
noise one would make feeling the nail go through

Today Society Lesbian Or Gay
2,090 words
The conception that lesbians and gay men may be
parents is frequently perceived in today? s
society as impossible or immoral. Gay men and
lesbians are often viewed as excluded from having
children because sexual reproduction is related to
men and women only. My approach to this uniquely
controversial topic of gay parenting will be that
of attempting to analyze the Pro side first. Gays
and lesbians are human too and who is to say that
they don? t deserve equal rights in society.

Air Resistance Straight Line
1,374 words
Planning The experiment is to determine the
horizontal motion of a projectile when launched
from a ski slope´ at different speeds. It is
thought that the rate at which the ball bearing is
released from the slope will affect how far it
travels in a horizontal direction. The height up
the slope that the ball is released will be
proportional to the distance that it travels.
Therefore, if the height from which it is released
is doubled it will travel twice as far. When the
experiment is conduc...
