Mrs. Bates English 112 5 March 2013 Cochlear Implants When most are born‚ they have five senses. Touching‚ tasting‚ feeling‚ smelling‚ and hearing. For whatever reason‚ sometimes in their lifetime some people may lose one of more of these senses. Imagine not being able to hear. How would that affect a person’s daily routine? Also‚ what if the said person could somehow get their hearing back‚ would they jump at the chance? That’s where cochlear implants come into play. Until the late

Nature vs. Nurture The never-ending debate of nature vs. nurture is an interesting topic to discuss. Some people believe that everyone’s personality is pre-determined by genetics while others think it all has to do with your surroundings as you grow older with experiences. My belief is somewhere in between: People can be born with a higher chance of being depressed or generally a happy person‚ but it won’t happen unless someone experiences something that triggers this trait. It’s not only a person’s

Max Macedo Art 216 Prof. Constantin A. Marinescu First Assignment I have seen this image‚ but don’t know the tittle. I have seen it in movies‚ cartoons‚ and parodies of the painting.

G. R. English 102 March 22nd‚ 2011 Aid in Dying The Suicide Tourist was very depressing. I agree with Craig Ewert on the fact that he has the right to die when he wants‚ but it was so heartbreaking to watch him have to travel such a long way to do it‚ instead of having the comfort of dying at home.

The documentary portrayed Craig and his wife to be very brave in the decision
