Birds have always been fascinating creatures to the imaginative impression of our creative entity. The moment man realizes the value of liberty in life and living, he grows desperate to cling to it. However, the more he tries to grab it in both hands the more it evades. Life on earth within a social decorum is so designed that the free flight of a mind finds it clipped. Down the ages, this consciousness only grows to make him feel his limitation and his inevitable lot of being restrained. On the…

While progress has been made in cannabis accessibility, there still remains an unfortunate stigma surrounding users. Despite a shift in perception due to legal status, those who use cannabis are often misrepresented in our society. This is further compounded if you are a WOC or belong to any other marginalized groups, because of oppressive stereotypes rooted in falsehood. Throughout history, society’s depiction of a female-identifying cannabis user has often been unkind; despite countless…

Beyond our most stubborn misperception often lies our fondest dream”, as once remarked by Robert Breault, an American operatic tenor. His ability to capture the meaning of Shakespeare’s tragedy Julius Caesar as a whole is largely seen through his wisdom.

Marijuana has been around for many centuries and used for different reasons and cultures. Based on my research I have found that yes, there are down sides of using the drug but the good…

Title: Medical Marijuana- the Best Alternative Medicine? Is the concern surrounding the legalization of medical marijuana use founded in scientific proof, or is it just all about a bunch of hype created by people wanting to get high without the risk of getting caught? What are the options out there for marijuana users to medicate, without smoking it so our states don’t become over run with marijuana smoke if this is legalized?

In a chamber in the academy Gulliver is reluctantly introduced to an aging, filth covered student, whose scientific vocation concerns the conversion of human faeces back into food: ‘...by separating the several parts; removing the tincture which it receives from the gall; making the odour exhale; and scumming off the saliva. He had a weekly allowance from the society, of a vessel filled with human ordure, about the bigness of a Bristol barrel’ (Swift, 1992, p. 192). The absurdity of…

Beer was an integral part of their religious ceremonies and mythology. Early civilizations found the mood-altering properties of beer supernatural, and the newfound state of intoxication was considered divine. Beer, it was thought, must contain a spirit or god, since drinking the liquid so possessed the spirit of the drinker. Remnants of this belief persist to modern times. We still refer to alcohol and alcoholic beverages as “spirits”. “The mouth of a perfectly happy man is filled with beer”,…
