Abstract
This paper gives an overview, including statistics, of bulimia nervosa, an eating disorder that can have adverse effects on the health of pregnant women, and mothers and their babies. The writer sets forth a teaching plan for nurses to open the eyes of expecting and new mothers to the dangers of bulimia. An integral part of the plan is to convince new mothers that bulimia is also considered anti-social, as this may be key to persuading bulimic women to forgo this behavior. The writer draws support for this plan from 10 sources, all from peer reviewed journals.
From the Paper
"Education on bulimia nervosa is important for Nurses at the Nurses for Newborns Foundation here in St. Louis because bulimia threatens the long-term health of newborns and mothers. Bulimia is two or more episodes of binge eating followed by vomiting or purging for three weeks. (James, 2001, p. 37) Bulimia cam lead to complications which can be fatal.

Abstract
This paper discusses ways that an unbeliever could be convinced of the authenticity of the Gospels, including evidence from history and archaeology and the testimony of witnesses. It also discusses "coming to faith in Christ".
From the Paper
"Unbelievers often contest the authenticity of the Gospels based on hearsay from those who contend that the Bible is inaccurate. Thus, it is necessary to provide substantiating evidence to prove their accuracy and to refute conflicting evidence that might prevent unbelievers from coming to faith in Christ. There are three primary avenues of proof that can be helpful in this endeavor-the witness of believable people, the historical record and scientific and archaeological evidence that supports the truth of the Gospel. The witness of believable people starts with..."

Abstract
This paper reviews Alan Bennett's powerful book "Talking Heads", a compilation of many intriguing characters incorporated within six highly different monologues. It compares and contrasts the varied techniques employed by Bennett in the crafting and presentation of sustained, convincing and engaging voices for his protagonists. It looks at the use of techniques such as stereotypes, character self-denial, humor and moreover the use of powerful language, i.e. witticisms, idioms, cynicism and colloquialisms.
From the Paper
"Bennett uses a variety of techniques to show the characters emotions in each monologue, some are the same and others are completely different. A change of subject is quite common. In "Soldiering On" Muriel's remorse and grief are shown quite sparsely but when it is shown, "then I felt a bit choked" the subject is changed immediately, "Anyway the tablet did the trick." She appears extremely distraught about her husbands" death but the way she has been brought up dictates her behavior as "keeping up appearances". Bennett shows Susan's emotions in "Bed among the lentils" with the use of frequent sarcasm towards her husband, herself and others. "Geoffrey praying in that pausy way he does." "For once I got it right." "Fan club running around in small circles" Mrs Frobisher even went as far as to squeeze my elbow." Susan created the feeling of being useless and unloved, and basically being in the way."

Abstract
This paper discusses the Central Intelligence Agency's (CIA) involvement in Iraq before the 2003 invasion and how it contributed to the war with Iraq. Specifically, it contains information on the CIA's initial studies on Iraq and includes a personal opinion regarding the CIA's influence on beginning the war. It explains how the CIA's reports on Iraq and their weapons of mass destruction before the invasion of Iraq helped move the invasion forward and justify the war to the American people. It asks how the CIA's intelligence went so wrong and whether there are still weapons of mass destruction hidden in Iraq.
From the Paper
"Before the invasion of Iraq in March 2003 by the allied forces of Great Britain and the United States, there was a large and comprehensive political outpouring of information and material justifying the pending invasion by both American and British sources. One of the most vocal agencies in this prelude to war was America's Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). In October 2002, the CIA released a multi-page report discussing "Iraq's Weapons of Mass Destruction Programs," which went on to detail the various reasons why Iraq was a threat to the United States and the world."

This essay examines Locke's social contract between people and sovereign and how Locke embraces the people's right of revolution, and assigns the sovereign reciprocal responsibilities to his subjects that Hobbes does not do.

Abstract
To substantiate the social contract as a valid justification for the political order, I will primarily examine Locke's social contract between people and sovereign, rather than Hobbes' social contract among the people, because Locke's theory is generally superior and more contemporarily relevant. I will first examine the pre-political state of persons, which is the state of nature, and demonstrate that rational individuals are compelled to enter society by agreeing to the social contract. Secondly, I will discuss the principal advantage of the social contract, which is that the government is legitimized by the consent of the people. Thirdly, I will discuss the principal advantage peculiar to Locke's formulation of the social contract, which is that the sovereign is held accountable for his actions. To more thoroughly examine the validity of the social contract in justifying a political order, I will discuss a possible objection to the use of the social contract, namely, that the social contract cannot oblige any but those who originally formed such a contract.
From the Paper
"After the English Civil War, justifying political authority became a particularly pressing concern. After all, the nation fought a bloody war to determine whether its supreme authority would be King Charles I, who claimed rule by divine right, or the Parliament. Thomas Hobbes' Leviathan was published in 1651, shortly after the Rump Parliament voted to execute the often-intractable Charles I in 1649. The chaos of the Civil War, regicide, and the establishment of Cromwell's Protectorate surely led Hobbes to favor a sovereign with absolute power. In contrast, Locke's Second Treatise on Government, published in 1690, was greeted by a starkly different English political culture. The 1688 Glorious Revolution, a bloodless coup in which the last Catholic monarch, James II, was finally deposed, allowed for the acceptance of the English Bill of Rights. The Bill of Rights finally guaranteed the supremacy of Parliament and the political and civil rights of the people. Granted the historical fact of the Glorious Revolution, Locke embraces the people's right of revolution, and assigns the sovereign reciprocal responsibilities to his subjects that Hobbes does not do. Although Hobbes and Locke ultimately design markedly different states, each justifies the political order with a social contract. The social contract does, indeed, provide a convincing justification for the political order."

Abstract
This paper explains that the primary use of rhetoric is to convince the reader to take the author's side of an opinion; but sometimes the author, as in Machiavelli's "The Prince", has hidden his opinion so deeply in the rhetoric that it is misunderstood. The author points out that Shakespeare used rhetoric in his plays, especially in his political tragedies, to demonstrate how easily men and women were corruptible by power. The paper relates that in "Julius Caesar" Cassius was totally corrupted by his quest for power and brought down ignominiously in battle; however, Brutus, whose flaw was poor judgment and needed to be "one of the gang", was permitted to honorably commit suicide rather than be tried and executed. Many long textual examples.

From the Paper
"If Johnny Cochrane were playing to both the jury and the country in this use of a crude rhetorical device, certainly a playwright like Shakespeare would be playing to both royalty and the average playgoer when he wrote "Julius Caesar". Advertisement was limited to a few playbills posted on walls and what the town crier could yell to the generally illiterate common rabble. In looking at any of Shakespeare's plays as Renaissance commercial theatrical adventures, memorable lines would have been good selling points for the literate as was word of mouth of the great fight and death scenes to the common man. Even today our far more sophisticated tastes run from high action adventure to the deeply philosophical in our entertainment."
