"Monsters are real, and ghosts are real too. They live inside us, and sometimes, they win"(King). Stephen King is one of the most famous horror fiction writers in history, with such classic works as The Shining and It on his resume. However, King would be nothing if it weren't for the tortured, Edgar Allan Poe(1809–1849). Poe's works seem to project the monsters and ghosts which lived inside him, through his awful, short life. Poe writings are woven tightly with language holding hidden meanings and psychological anguish. Argumentary the most famous work of Poe is The Fall of the House of Usher(The House of Usher), as the short story incorporates every trope of modern horror, important among these is the setting. A nameless narrator ...show more content... In Gothic literature, settings were bleak, remote, and eerie. Though making fun of a serious genre, many writers wrote with a sense of satire. Kevin J. Hayes, professor of English at the University of Central Oklahoma, explains, "Poe is the last great gothic writer...humor had frequently been an element of the gothic before Poe's time. "Usher," however, treats the gothic with profound seriousness. Reading the story, one gets the impression that Poe set out to write the gothic tale to end all gothic tales". Hayes alludes to how dark The House of Usher becomes as the narrator spends more time with his boyhood friend. There is no glimpse of humor or optimism. Poe's short story is twisted and despondent to end the gothic era with a setting as tortured as it's writer. The catalog of the Usher mansion symbolises its inhabitants. The article Themes and Construction: "The Fall of the House of Usher" from Gale Cengage Learning, remarks, "The Usher mansion is the most important symbol in the story; isolated, decayed, and full of the atmosphere of death, the house represents the dying Usher family itself". Poe writes that Roderick and Madeline are the last two members of the Usher family left alive. Also, Madeline is on the brink of death, and Roderick mental state isn't stable. Nevertheless, there are more symbolisms between the setting and the family of Usher. The melancholy Get more content on StudyHub.Vip
Argument From Analogy Essay The argument from analogy is an inductive argument that focuses on the problem of other minds and aims to show that we are justified in inferring the existence of other minds. British philosopher, Bertrand Russell, describes the argument from analogy as follows: "The behaviour of other people is in many ways analogous to our own, and we suppose that it must have analogous causes. What people say is what we should say if we had certain thoughts, and so we infer that they probably have these thoughts. They give us information which we can sometimes subsequently verify" (Russell, "Analogy", p89). Norman Malcolm argues that the argument from analogy does poorly in its attempts to show that we are justified in inferring the existence of other minds. In assessing whether the argument from analogy succeeds in its aims, I will raise and respond to Malcolm's objection against the argument from analogy; Austrian–born British philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein 's 'Beetle in a Box' thought experiment; as well as Welsh philosopher H. H. Price's argument and English philosopher Stuart Hampshire's argument in defence of the argument from analogy. ...show more content... From subjective observation, Russell claims to know that A, which is a thought or feeling, causes B, which is a bodily act (Russell, "Analogy", p110). Russell argues that believing in the existence of other minds requires some postulate, and describes this postulate to be "If, whenever we can observe whether A and B are present or absent, we find that every case of B has an A as a causal antecedent, then it is probable that most B's have A's as causal antecedents, even in cases where observation does not enable us to know whether A is present or not" (Russell, "Analogy", Get more content on StudyHub.Vip

Examples Of Argumentative Essay Argumentative essay presents a point of view about something and explains the reasons in order to win readers' agreement. It is built around a specific statement (or main premise) that is debatable within the field in which students are studying. In other words, at the center of an argumentative essay is a statement with which readers may disagree. The argumentative essay will need to support that statement in a manner that convinces the readers of its truth. It mainly strives to convince the reader of the writer's point of view, using reasonable and ethical methods .The process of argument composition varies from writer to writer, most writers follow these three stages: forming an argument, which can consist of discovering a motive for writing and identifying an audience to address, discovering and sharpening a position, and developing an appropriate style; supporting the argument; and reviewing the argument, which can include considering the image projected by argument, making substantial additions or deletions to a first draft, and adding an introduction and conclusion (Cheng and Chen 2009, Day,1997, Liu,2005,Mayberry,2009). ...show more content... The first feature is superstructure which refers to the organizational plan of any text and the linear progression of the text. The second feature is the quality of logical reasoning which is assessed by analyzing the interrelationships of writers' assertions and the associated support or data provided to substantiate those claims.

Argumentative Essay On Vegetarianism Around 7.3 million people in the United States are vegetarian ("Vegetarian Times"). The dictionary defines a vegetarian as "A person who does not eat meat, and sometimes other animal products, especially for moral, religious or health reasons" ("Vegetarian Definition"). Practicing a religion that advocates vegetarianism is one of many reasons some people follow a vegetarian diet. A senior at Liberty–Benton High School who considers herself a pescatarian, a person whose only meat source is fish and seafood, promotes others to join in on a diet like hers. She claims that over the three years of her pescatarian diet she has become healthier and happier. Vegetarianism is a controversial topic, but overall, it creates a healthier lifestyle, ...show more content... During the 80's and 90's, people became vegetarians more because of environmental issues. In the mid 90's, the Mad Cow disease, Listeria, and Salmonella break out occurred, making people more cautious of meat eating. The Animal Welfare Act was established in 1996 and signed by Lyndon B. Johnson (Animal Welfare Act). The Animal Welfare Act has authority over animals in laboratories, animal exhibitors, dealers who sell animals to research laboratories, dog and cat breeders, animal carriers, intermediate handlers, circuses, zoos, puppy roadside menageries, mills, and transporters of animals. Under the Act, people must provide their animals with adequate care and treatment in the areas of housing, handling, sanitation, nutrition, water, veterinary care, and protection from extreme weather and temperatures (Animal Welfare Act). People that disobey the Act can receive punishments such as revoked license, imprisonment, or a fine. Over one million birds and mammals are violently killed every hour in the United States, and an estimated 150 billion animals per year are murdered worldwide (Arora). Animal slaughterhouses for large food companies are known for animal cruelty and vegetarians recognize this. Many vegetarians also boycott places like SeaWorld who keep wild animals locked in cages. Every day in countries around the world, animals are fighting for their lives. They are enslaved, beaten, and kept in chains to make them perform for human "entertainment."

Global Warming Argumentative Essay Global Warming: Myth or Fact? The Global Warming theory has become increasingly popular over the past few years. Citizens of the world are being encouraged to be more environmentally conscious by others including politicians, celebrities, and world organizations. The problem with the theory lies in the fact that it has become more and more controversial as it gains publicity and attention. The basic concept behind this theory is that the earth was made with a balance of "greenhouse gasses". These gasses are naturally occurring within the atmosphere and they essentially make the planet habitable by keeping it warm. When the world became more industrialized, the amount of carbon dioxide that was being emitted into the atmosphere ...show more content... The more people habituating the planet, the more potential there is for emission of greenhouse gasses. In short, the basis of this argument other than years of documented research and scientific discovery is what harm could we do by being more conservative in our use of energy and other entities that produce more than their share of greenhouse gasses? The answer as it stands now is none. The harmful effects of ignoring this crisis are all but proven fact. The problem that the pro– global warming theorists have created is that of social standing and little else. While there may be scientific backing to support some of the theory, the media presents the problem with great sensationalism. Global warming and energy conservation has thus become a trend and losses some of its validity through this. The scare tactics used by the media to "promote awareness" are just that, a linguistic ploy to gain favor. "Awareness of this global threat reinforced public concern and environmental problems and thereby provided environmental activists, scientists, and policy makers with new momentum in their efforts to promote environmental protection." (McCright, 2000) This statement draws line to the potential benefits that would be received if the pro–global warming theorists were to draw enough attention to the issue. Driven by social empowerment and conviction to environmental protection, these activists misrepresent the actual threat and paint it as being much more Get more content on StudyHub.Vip

Demand And Supply Of Labour Essay Name: Sharajit Kaur Student ID: AAP3022 Demand and supply of Labour in Economics development Introduction Labour is an important factor not only in production, but in all other economic activities. Classical economists like Ricardo and Karl Marx gave prime place to labour as the main source of production. Labour is a basis of not only consumption and production, but also it serves as a basis of exchange. It is a mobile factor and brings in use the other factors of production like land and capital. The total numbers of jobs which have taken centre stage with numbers of people not having job on a global scale are considered in those nations which have more economic crisis. Including this, this is a fact that nations which have economic growth are also experiencing tense labour relations. Good policies for labour business could be designed and bought in action only by determining the determinants of good labour relations (Wang, 2012). Sometime the labour market is abused by the management prevailing system which makes markets unclear due to which market is always influenced by a state of disequilibrium. This issue requires serious attention from Government. Therefore, authorities, the capitalists and labour all appear as more important elements of labour market. These all could play a significant role to determine the labour demand and labour supply. The aim of this paper is to discuss the determinants of labour on both the supply–side and demand–side market and to provide Get more content on StudyHub.Vip

Argumentative Essay On English Class What I am about to do is inform you on how to survive the ferocious English 1302 course to make life a bit easier on you. I mean, you're at the edge of your seat dying with loads of work, starving like a dying child, living off of pennies and the only thing that is keeping you from collapsing is your Starbucks drink that is filled with four shots of espresso, right? Well, by the time you get to the end of this letter, you'll thank me later for it. When you enter your English class, you will come across many assignments. They happen to be your annotated bibliography and your researched argument essay, or in other words RAE. The purpose of the bibliography is to critique sources and gather enough data for you essay. It includes citations, a summary of your topic and personal thoughts of the sources you chose. The RAE is a persuasive essay where you attempt to create an argument that is supported with the information you gathered in your annotated bibliography. In my RAE, I argued that children can recuperate after their parents' separation. Its purpose was to demonstrate that if parents were to come together and realize that ...show more content... I learned that by annotating a certain part of the reading, it helped increase my understanding. Not only that but it helped me not miss a single bit of important information. Writing notes in the margins of the text was really helpful because it was a summary of the entire paragraph and whenever I would look back at my notes, it reminded me of what I read. Also, circling words I didn't know was very accommodating because again, it helped me understand the concept a bit more. Underlining words that seem important to you is a big tip I suggest because you are able to use that information when you are talking about your source. You can expand that information by linking it to another similar source. Therefore, it is important to annotate. It'll take up extra time but it will be worth Get more content on StudyHub.Vip
In order to have a good argumentative essay, there are a few important standards of critical thinking that is needed to be found in the essay such as the clearness, accuracy, importance or relevance, sufficiency, depth, breath and precision that is stated by Nosich. The strength of this argumentative essay is consider weak because it does not capture the interest of the reader and was not persuasive enough; even though from the introduction of the argumentative essay includes full sentences and a good opinion, the argumentative essay is all objective. The introduction includes too much of the emotional appeals, such as when it wrote " Day after day the number of people worshipping this icon has been growing since the birth of this creature. well to many it may seem harmless idol but in my opinion, Mickey Mouse is an 'devil in disguise' influencing the minds of young and old people to adopt the culture of the 'devil' which doesn't blend will with the moral values of society and should be banned". To improve the introduction, the writer should include of all objectives statements relative facts and appeals to the mind of people who agree or disagree with the topic.

Argumentary On Animals And Animal Rights Devon: Hey Sasha! Sasha: Hey Devon! Devon: That class was crazy! There was so much information regarding animal rights... Sasha: I know. But I don't know if any of that changed my views. I still think becoming a vegetarian is the way to go. Devon: You think? I still think that it is okay to eat meat. The animals just need to be raised in a humane manner. Sasha: Eh...I don't know. Animals should just be left alone and be free to roam around in the wild. They should not be tortured like those animals that I saw while visiting that "kill floor". Devon: But Sasha, it is not like that everywhere. I agree that they should not be tortured like the ones you saw on your field trip, but they still can live a good life on a farm and be treated with ...show more content... Devon: I can agree with that too! So, when animals are on the farm, they really don't know what's going to come in the future. Also, if they do get hurt, they are able to get over it quickly and not sit there and think about the pain . Sasha: But it still bothers me that they are not getting treated the same way as humans. I remember in Peter Singers article when he talked about the idea of speciesism. He said that it was an attitude of bias that favored the interest of members of their own species (4). The one species is against the other species. Devon: Well, I can see how that is a good argument. Sasha: And the fact that we treat these animals based on intelligence is also ridiculous. Just because a dog does not understand what it means to vote, society should not consider it less intelligent than us. It is a living thing that deserves the best life. Devon: Okay, but Sasha, you have to also remember that these animals do depend on us to continue to live a good life. Without us, they would be put in the wild and be put at risk of dying fast. In Pollan's article, he discussed how animals live longer in captivity and how domesticated animals can't live on their own in the wild (6). Yeah, they will not be living the absolute free life, but they will be protected and nourished if needed. Sasha: Hmmm I never really noticed that. But, do you see how these animals are being treated like a tool? In Regan's article, he said that animals should not be treated as a means Get more content on StudyHub.Vip

On the individual side of commentaries, I used the Brazos theological commentary on the bible exodus by Thomas Joseph White to analyze Ex 2:1–21. The main difference with The New Interpreter's Bible is that this book seems to be solely focus on the events in exodus. Before the introduction we are given a set of series prefaces compose of acknowledgements and abbreviations to help us read the book. The organization of the book starts with an index named contents where we are given the number of chapters and subcategories of these chapters. In the chapter part we start with Introduction, then Deliverance from Egypt: Exodus 1–12, Wilderness: Exodus 13–18, Covenant: Exodus 19–24, Cultic Rituals: Exodus 25–31, and at last Fall and Eschatological Restoration: Exodus 32–40. The introduction is divided in three categories, the darkness and light of god, the division of the book of exodus, the four senses of scripture. These points summarize of the book literally. First the darkness and light of god, Mr. Joseph White argues that the dense dark aspects are often around us. Sometimes we get the idea that God has abandoned us. We may think so because we have always seen God as a God of dazzling brilliance (Rev. 21:11; Hebrews 12:29) and God in good times. However, this type of idea is challenged when one reads Exodus 20:21 " As the people stood in the distance, Moses approached the dark cloud where God was."

Argumentative Essay Argumentative Essay The function of an argumentative essay is to show that your assertion (opinion, theory, and hypothesis) about some phenomenon or phenomena is correct or more truthful than others'. The art of argumentation is not an easy skill to acquire. Many people might think that if one simply has an opinion, one can argue it successfully, and these folks are always surprised when others don't agree with them because their logic seems so correct. Argumentative writing is the act of forming reasons, making inductions, drawing conclusions, and applying them to the case in discussion; the operation of inferring propositions, not known or admitted as true, from facts or principles known, admitted, or proved to be true. It clearly ...show more content... Inductive logic arrives at likely conclusions by counting up evidence, while deductive logic arrives at necessary conclusions by examining the logical meanings of statements. According to Purdue University English Profession Neil Gill, deductive arguments can be grouped into two categories: A Rogerian argument considers several viewpoints and selects the best one, whereas a Toulmin argument presents a single, linear argument (i.e., A therefore B) in support of a position. Fallacious Fallacious arguments are logical–seeming arguments that are not valid. Unlike logical arguments, fallacious arguments do not arrive at valid conclusions or inferences. There are literally dozens of fallacious arguments you can commit; a fallacious argument style is one that commits one or more fallacies frequently. For example, if a person in an argument persistently says, "the economy went up this year, therefore the party in power caused the economy to improve," that person is engaging in the "post hoc ergo propter hoc" fallacy , an invalid argument of the form "x happened, y happened, therefore x caused y."

President Elect Donald Trump 's Climate Change TJ McPhaul Professor Walter Hatch Bio 101.01 8 December 2016 Presidential Paper 3 Introduction The next 4 years have a lot of people concerned about what President–elect Donald Trump will undertake. Many people are worried about their healthcare and citizenship rights, but conceivably the most concerning issue of having Donald Trump elected is that of climate change. Throughout this paper, I will elaborate further on Trump's stance on 4 environmental issues including climate change, biodiversity , development of alternate energy sources, and the rising ocean levels. I will also have various references to peer–reviewed literature specifically apropos to the various environmental issues which will be used as a tool throughout the paper as a way to compare President–elect Donald Trump's stance on these issues in comparison to members of the scientific community. Climate Change, Greenhouse Gasses, Global Warming , Ozone Depletion Climate change is a huge overarching issue that directly relates to almost every environmental issue we are facing today on the planet. In essence, climate change is the main incapacitating factor for the 4 factors of sustainability .

Argumentative Essay On Donald Trump Donald Trump's election unleashed a flood of bad blood and hostility against Mexican–Americans. Within 24 hours of his election, Mexican–Americans across the country were being verbally and even physically attacked. At the elementary school where I work, kindergarteners teased their Mexican–American classmates that they could be deported, or that their parents would be deported leaving them as orphans. Parents defended their children's actions, saying it was just "kids being kids." Many perpetrators don't think they are racist or insist they are just joking. But the message is clear: "You don't belong here." What we are seeing is the reanimation of longstanding stereotypes that present Mexicans as unassimilable, criminal, even diseased. The United States is described as a melting pot nation. That's what I read in the textbooks when I was in school. Immigrants, they say, can learn English, appreciate American culture, and adopt American values and ultimately "become" American. This has been the script for white ethnic immigrants, even those who faced discrimination, such as the Irish, Italians, and Jews. But Mexicans have had citizenship available to them for nearly 170 years. So why aren't they seen as fully assimilated into U.S. culture? Why can Donald Trump still call them "bad hombres," rapists, criminals, and disease carriers? Much of this hostility stems from concerns about the estimated 11.2 million undocumented immigrants in the U.S., about half of whom are Mexican (Pew Foundation). But it's unfair and inaccurate to characterize all immigrants as lawless marauders simply because they're undocumented. Those with criminal records are already being deported. Many argue that being undocumented alone qualifies migrants as criminals–they are "illegal." The history of who gets to be "legal" in our country, however, is complex. European immigrants who came to the United States in the 19th and early 20th centuries faced few restrictions. They were very rarely deported. When laws changed in 1924, the federal government took steps to help make European immigrants "legal" and pave the way for their eventual assimilation. Deportations were suspended, and immigrants could pay a small fee to register when they Get more content on StudyHub.Vip

The Importance Of Writing An Argumentative Essay As a student in a beginning English class some elements may seem difficult at the beginning but with practice they become long lasting skills. Writing an argumentative is not an easy task there is a lot of elements that have to come together to create a successful essay but as many other things, it requires constant practice and effort. At the start of this course I wasn't a very good writer myself, and I can see the huge improvement this course made by looking at my first argumentative essay . I was able to identify and apply the requisites of a good argument essay. A well thought structure, reliable evidence, and a counterargument are three essential components of argumentative writing . The structure of an essay is the foundation to a good argumentative paper. Throughout this course I learned the importance of having an essay structure, before I started this class I didn't have a very clear vision of how to correctly format my essay. In my diagnostic essay, which was the first one I wrote for English 1302, had five paragraphs. That is considered a standard structure of many essays but it is more of a skeleton. Looking back at that essay I see how poor my introduction was, I did not even have a clear thesis. One only thing even close to one that I could spot was, "The "millennials," people born in the last two decades of the 20th century, are failing to reflect Rich's model for a good education." It merely addresses the topic in a simple way. It did not serve the purpose a Get more content on StudyHub.Vip

Argumentative Essay On Fasting Accounts of fasting can be traced back thousands of years. The primary purpose of fasting in those days was to flee from the distraction of eating, to give your full attention to something else, often through the form of prayer. However, fasting is becoming increasingly popular in a different kind of way. Today many scientists and doctors are studying fasting as a type of healing process, not just mentally, but also physically. These beneficial effects have been seen in the treatment of weight loss, mental health, cancer , skin disease, and a host of other ailments. While fasting may not be safe for a select few, the possibility of life changing benefits warrants everyone's consideration. Many people refer to the problem of overweight Americans as an epidemic, and rightfully so. "The National Center for Health Statistics (2002) estimated that in 1999, 61% of U.S. adults were overweight" (Dean 303). The main reason so many Americans are overweight is that food is everywhere. We see advertisements for food constantly, such as commercials, billboards, food trucks, restaurants, and grocery stores. With so much food around us, it can be hard not to want to eat all the time. This reality of food everywhere is a very new concept. People have not had access to food in the way they do today ever before in history. Fasting has been shown to quickly and effectively get weight off. Dr. Rex Russell describes a three week fast conducted by Dr. George Thampy, a biochemist at the Get more content on StudyHub.Vip

Nuclear Power Argumentative Gabe Tonnos Mrs. Jones Chemistry 2nd hour 18 October 2017 Nuclear Power Argumentative Essay Nuclear power can be defined as "any method of doing work that makes use of nuclear fission or nuclear fusion reactions" ("Nuclear Power", 2017). Nuclear power plants use nuclear fission to provide heat, which causes water to become steam. It is the steam that spins turbines and provides the energy. Then, the steam either rises up a cooling tower and is released into the air, or is cooled by being deposited into a lake or ocean (Goodman, 2017). There are three nuclear power plants in Michigan: Fermi 2, Palisades, and Cook Nuclear Plant ("Nuclear Power Plants", n.d.). Together, they produce nearly 30% of the energy used in Michigan in an ...show more content... This just goes to show how efficient the fuel in nuclear plants is at producing energy. The final reason why nuclear energy is so efficient is because nuclear power plants have a very high energy output compared to other plants. Coal plants have "an average capacity of 547 megawatts" ("Coal generates 44%", 2012). While this is decent, nuclear plants, on average, produce about double of what coal plants generate. The average nuclear plant can produce over 1,000 megawatts of energy! This makes it the most efficient way to produce electricity because of its high output of energy ("World Nuclear", 2017). But this high output is only possible because the plant can run around the clock. And that is only possible due to the uranium fuel being so powerful and efficient. Not only should we expand the use of nuclear power plants in Michigan because they are efficient, but they also should be expanded for their economical benefits. Increasing the use of nuclear energy in Michigan would be very helpful for the economy. First of all, nuclear power is cost–effective. "Nuclear power plants are...relatively cheap to run. The operating cost of these plants is lower than almost all fossil fuel competitors, with a very low risk of operating cost inflation" ("World Nuclear", 2017). Inflation is very bad for the economy. If there were to be a shortage of coal, electricity prices would rise and people would lose jobs. Uranium, Get more content on StudyHub.Vip

Type 1 Diabetes Argumentative Essay The Answer is in the Cells Type 1 diabetes is caused by the pancreas not being able to produce insulin which regulates the levels of glucose in the blood (Bennett 17). People who struggle with this condition need insulin shots several times today to ensure their blood sugar remains in a healthy range. This often times is a burden on the diabetic's daily lifestyle. If unchecked, diabetes can cause severe weight loss, overwhelming tiredness, increased thirst and hunger, and excessive urination. Scientists and doctors have been seeking for ways to help diabetic's cope with this illness. After years of researching and testing, they have begun developing a method to help alleviate the problems of diabetes. This new method, islet cell transplantation, ...show more content... There is a device called the bionic pancreas that is being developed by Ed Damiano, whose son, David was diagnosed with diabetes in 2000, gave him the inspiration to find a cure. For nearly fifteen years he has been researching and working on this project. There have been hundreds of successful trials of people with diabetes using the bionic pancreas and the feedback has been mostly positive. Some say the device as life changing. "At the end of one recent trial, an 11–year–old boy liked the bionic pancreas so much that he ran away from the investigators conducting the test, and it took them over an hour to get the device back" (Sifferlin 42+). There has been progress in all types of people. Sifferlin says "The bionic pancreas has successfully worked in people ages 6–76 and weighing 47 lb. to 283 lb." (42+). The bionic pancreas does also have a pain free, easy method of glucose testing since the device checks it continuously. The only requirement for the device to work properly is simply punching in the person's weight (Russell et al. 2148). Unlike the bionic pancreas, islet cell transplantation is limited in becoming a global treatment because of the lack of supply of islet cells. This is due to the fact that there are more people with type 1 diabetes than there are donor pancreases (Islet Transplantation). The bionic pancreas does not have limitations on the device itself that would prevent it from being produced all over the world. In other words, with proper funding the bionic pancreas can be produced for all diabetics. Damiano hopes to have the bionic pancreas affordable and on the market by Get more content on StudyHub.Vip
