    of us learn to read through various outlets such as television‚ books‚ movies‚ etc. Becoming literate is essential to functioning in society. Looking back at one of the most influential figures of the 1960’s‚ it is hard to imagine that at age 21 Malcolm X tried to start a letter with “Look‚ daddy‚ let me pull your coat about a cat…” (X 256). He spent 7 years in prison for robbery‚ and during that time he underwent a self-metamorphosis. His way of putting it is “books opened up a whole new world to

    Cherry Terrero- Ortiz TV Brain It is safe to say that just about everyone has watched television at least once in their life. There is an equal amount of informative things as there are uninformative. To say that television makes you less intelligent is ridiculous and untrue. If your overall intelligence can be so easily affected by a 45 minute show then you should really question how smart you really are. Although I agree with Dana Stevens point about the show 24 and its false representation

    Steinbeck presents Candy as a character to be pitied in many ways: When Carlson demands that Candy removes the dog from the bunkhouse‚ this makes us pity Candy as he feels he has to apologise for the smell‚ even though he has “.. been around him so much” that he no longer notices “..how he stinks.” The old dog has been with Candy for a long time‚ it is his only companion and Candy ‘squirmed uncomfortably’ when Carlson told him to shoot the dog. This statement shows that it is hard for Candy to think about

    Steinbeck presents Candy as a vulnerable character. He does this by referencing him as an “old man” before citing his name‚ using pre-modification; so that the reader instantly knows not only his physical state but maybe that metaphorically he is a weak person. He is also shown to be desperate throughout the opening of chapter 2‚ where he tries to make friends with George and Lennie as soon as he meets them. He gossips about other people on the ranch and makes sure George “won’t tell Curley nothing”

    accompanied by compulsive masturbation over a long period‚ alters brain chemistry and can eventually produce brain damage. This is not a conspiracy theory. It is an intellectually defensible thesis for which there is now a growing body of scientific evidence. Perhaps the quickest way to tame and tranquilize an unruly nation is to turn its citizens into sex addicts: for just as children are easily taken in by predators who tempt them with candy‚ most people are only too pleased to live under governments
