Abstract This paper looks at the prevalence of Internet use and examines aspects such as the impact it has on our communication, employment, shopping habits, leisure and use of information. It discusses equality of access and the possibility that the Internet could become part of high culture as well as the positive and negative possibilities of electronic communication, including its potential use in terrorism, decentralisation of society and destruction of communities. The paper concludes that while there are arguments that suggest that the Internet is responsible for isolating people and weakening social controls and community bonds, it could also be argued that the Internet is a form of glue within modern societies, providing yet another means of communication to further strengthen the bonds within communities and families.
From the Paper "The internet was originally developed by the US military as a form of transmitting messages and information between officers in different locations, and was then developed further by universities, with the aim of encouraging more academic debate between scholars across the world. With the advent of the personal computer and the boom in personal ownership, the internet became accessible to millions of households during the 1990s and its growth and popularity has continued, with the advance of high-speed and digital connections becoming more readily available.

Abstract In this article, the writer discusses the collective unconscious and comunally shared ideas and looks at how this relates to myths. The writer compares the various beliefs of Freud and Jung in this regard. The writer notes that unlike the personal ideas of the area of the unconscious that are specific to the individual, the idea of the collective unconscious suggests that the human community shares certain specific, particular concepts or stories known as myths. Further, the writer points out that although these ideas are not articulated upon the surface, they are made evident in the myths and stories produced by the community.
From the Paper "Unlike the personal ideas of the area of the unconscious that are specific to the individual, the idea of the collective unconscious suggests that the human community shares certain specific, particular concepts or stories known as myths. Although these ideas not articulated upon the surface, they are made evident in the myths and stories produced by the community. Jung might note that Freud's chose a myth to express the idea of the Oedipus complex, or the hostility of child-parent relations between the child and the parent of the same sex. Rather than a tale of the Greek classical belief in the unavoidability of fate, as the surface meaning of the Oedipus story might seem to express, the tale becomes an expression of the entire human community."

From the Paper "Primary care in the setting of developed countries such as the United States, especially in rural and underserved areas, still remains a large hurdle for the health care system to clear (Kippenbrock, Stacy & Gilbert-Palmer, 2004). Primary care aims to provide basic health services to patients. Some of these services include patient education, counseling and health maintenance, aside from detection of and treatment of diseases (American Academy of Family Physicians, 2006). One of these services involves primary prevention of diseases (e.g. lung cancer, cervical cancer, colon cancer, breast cancer, prostate cancer, etc.) through screening and regular examinations.
Rural communities are at a distinct disadvantage as far as health care is concerned. As the health care system became increasingly market-oriented, economic growth in this sector grew, in large part due to technological advances in health care provision, an orientation towards more meticulous health care economics management (e.g. managed care) and the diversification of the health care professional work force (Ricketts, 2000). However, these milestones in the evolution of the health care system were founded and dictated by market forces as a result. The rural population comprises only 20% of the total U.S. population. In being more concentrated in more "cost-effective" areas such as cities, large health care provider entities inadvertently exclude less populated rural areas to the detriment of the communities in these areas. This is exemplified by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services' 2000 report that discloses 1,182 non-metropolitan areas as Health Professional Shortage Areas (HPSA) (Ricketts, 2000)."
