Words: 1101 - Pages: 5.... gender. In the poem 'Night Thoughts: Baby & Demon', the reader is positioned to automatically associate the baby to the ignorant, undemanding, innocent female, and the clever, deceitful demon and dominating persona to the male. These assumptions are presented as society's unconscious way of assigning roles and expectations to each gender.

'rudely decline .....

American Dream
Words: 1538 - Pages: 6.... length away, advertisers basically have us on our knees. We must digest advertisers= views so frequently that you would think it was necessary to sustain life. Advertising=s main goal is to persuade. They want us to see the American way through their eyes. They tell us what to eat, drink, wear, drive, and think. Advertisers start this form of brainwashing on us at a very early age. They lay the groundwork of ideals early on because it is easy to persuade a child. Now, with the two income family, children are left to interpret not only advertisements but television programming as well without supervision. Children are forced to make their ow .....

Words: 807 - Pages: 3.... between reputable and irreputable media, with regard to the JonBenet Ramsey case.

Hackers Misunderstood
Words: 2096 - Pages: 8.... distinctively different than your average and boring citizen. They do not settle for what the rest of the world is following or brainwashed into doing. Hackers thrive off curiosity, and have an unsatisfying hunger for knowledge. The word impossible or access denied does not exist in a hacker’s vocabulary. They can access anything and everything that is kept in a computer. Particularly when a price has been placed on knowledge and information. Why should only a select few have leisure of knowing what the rest of the public does not? Knowledge is and should always remain free. A hacker will share his knowledge, encourage it to be reprod .....

Endangered Species In Canada
Words: 1477 - Pages: 6.... from
hunting, that would be enough. Today we now know that we must also protect
there habitats. This is where they find food, water, shelter, and a place
to have their young. Even if they are not hunted, animals will die out if
these necessities cannot be met.
In this century, loss of habitat has been one of the main caused of
extinction (pg 8, Silverstein). People share the country and the planet

Free Enterprise
Words: 743 - Pages: 3.... written, it was generally assumed that only property owners should have the right to vote and participate in government. The "Free Labor" thinking of the Republican Party before the Civil War was basically a form of the capitalist work ethic. It meant that if 1) you were free yourself; 2) your country was "free"; and, 3) there was no slave labor to take your livelihood, you could "make something of yourself," and become a capitalist or, at least, an independent producer, professional or artist. Americans in the North at that time were influenced by this capitalist "work-ethic" to under-estimate the energy of the South. They thought (as the .....
