    Eric Birling is a seemingly less important character in J.B. Priestley’s thriller, An Inspector Calls, but upon deep analysis, we can see that Eric is a character of great significance and has a huge impact on the play. This can be seen through the structure and shape of this whodunit and some of the language and stage directions. Eric is a very effective tool that Priestley uses to keep the tension going; be it the difference of opinion he has with his father or the suspicious behaviour, or even later on in the play, his absence which is the peak of tension.…

    also states, “I know with all the auditing, books and courses I took, the cost of Scientology added up to more than $50,000.” That’s more than a year’s salary for some people, far more than any struggling actor moving to Los Angeles looking for one big break. Steve Hall who wrote speeches and TV scripts for Scientology says, “Scientology is a philosophy of rational self-inquiry akin to Buddhism, in that it requires an investigation and a reckoning with one's own demons and desires. ”(Edwards). That clearly states that Scientology is a religion to help find yourself but there are far more ethical ways of achieving this.…

    Humanistic Theories Debate Shara, Courtney, Connie, Caroline, and Mara Group D PSY.310 10/20/14 During the 1950s, humanistic psychology, incorporating principles of Gestalt psychology, developed in reaction to behaviorism and psychoanalysis. In the early 1960s, less than two decades before the 100th anniversary of the formal founding of psychology, a so-called third force developed within American psychology. This “third force” is referred to as humanistic psychology but at first, it was not intended to be a revision or adaptation of any current school of thought, as was the case with some Neo-Freudian positions. Humanistic psychology emphasized human strengths…

This final report done by the House Select Committee on Assassinations clearly contradicts the Warren Commission’s Report on the Kennedy Assassination which states that only a lone shooter killed JFK.

    The death penalty has been in the United States since the first settlements were built. In that time an estimated 16,000 criminals have been put to death since the first recorded execution, back in 1608 (Ford).

    For this essay I chose the theme supernatural. Have you ever wanted to be a powerful magician? Here's quote I found from one of Shakespeare's sonnets, "They that have power to hurt and will do none...rightly do inherit heaven's grace's" (Shakespeare, Sonnet 94). Shakespeare's The Tempest shows us that therein us lies magic and can be used to control relationships, environmental elements, and even cause chaos, but also shows that all magic comes with a cost. Even though the play has a comedic and tragic feel with a mix of revenge and forgiveness, its prominent theme is of the supernatural.…
