I’ve performed musically many times and have mostly gotten over my stage fright for that, but delivering lines in a non-musical context has always daunted me more. My second goal is essentially to get “better” at acting. I know this is a somewhat subjective goal, but what I mean is that I would like to become more convincing when playing a character. This also ties in with my first goal, because if…

Introduction In the paper I am going to analyze the competent judges argument. First I am going to explain what hedonism is then I am going to explain what the satisfied pig objection is and demonstrate both views on it from Bentham and Mills perspective.

It is very important that both the adults and kids are involved because both require very different needs when it comes to support. The Healthy Families program is designed for first-birth parents. The program starts after the birth of the baby and continues up until the…

“Some people believe the possibility of giving offense… to be more important than stating the truth…” Dr. Dutton touches on a point that is all too true in our society today.

Rather than using Political Correctness as it was…

Flynn explored the effects of an anchoring event on a coral reef at Crab Cove in the British Virgin Islands. With an increase in tourism, recreational boat traffic has increased and some boaters don’t think about where their anchor is going when they throw it overboard. On July 7th, 2004, a 50 meter vessel named the Holo-Kai anchored overnight on the reef. The heavy chains and three anchors used to hold the Holo-Kai in place caused damage to 1.5 hectares of the reef. Immediately after the anchor…
