He was placed in the care of a childless couple, John and Frances Allan, who doted on him but he was never legally adopted. He was to lament the loss of his parents by remarking, ?The want of parental affection has been the heaviest of my trials.? (Poe ?Letter to Judge Beverly Tucker.?) '

The Water Bottle, 2008.
This paper is a Prown's object analysis of a cultural artifact, the typical water bottle.

Abstract
This paper explains that water bottles, designed to hold water and any sort of liquid, come in a variety of shapes, sizes and even methods of use. The author points out that, while water bottles originally may have been developed for athletic purposes, they now have become both a fashion statement and a convenience item. The paper states that the water bottle as a cultural artifact is an important element of a greater cultural development called commoditization. The author suggests that, in analyzing the water bottle as a commodity and as a cultural relic, it is best to rely on a qualitative methodology, which will allow the researcher to approach this topic from an phenomenological perspective rather than a deterministic, quantitative perspective that might obscure the fact that actual people use water bottles in a myriad of ways and for a number of diverse purposes. The paper includes a colored picture of water bottles.

From the Paper
"The water bottle is a work of architecture as much as it is an item of convenience. In architecture, form and function are uniquely inter-related and in design related specialties that must pay attention to this relationship, how the designer melds these two attributes is critical to the final appearance and practicality of the item in question. For the water bottle, it can be seen that function follows form. The most important attribute of the typical water bottle is the manner in which it holds water and how easily it can be grasped by the human hand without any form of manual assistance in the form of another individual or a lifting device such as a strap or a handle."

Makes the Transition from the Old Love Story to the New Love Story
Forms the Lyrical Core of the Novel and Serves as a Confession of Love
Serves to Prove the Role that Chance Plays in Finding True Love
The Place of Love in Life
Lovers Often Use the Word "Forever" to Describe Their Love, Suggesting that Death is an Obstacle in the Course of Love
True Love Can Happen More Times during a Life- Span Due to Man's Inner Capacity to Love
Negative Criticism of the Novel
Loose, Unrealistic Plot
Tearjerker
Symbolic Meaning of the Novel
Love can be Destructive
Death and the Chances of Life Interfere with the Course of Love
True Love Seems to be Ill-Fated
Loss Happens Two Times in the Novel- Garret loses Catherine, then Theresa loses Garret.
Love has a Regenerating Power
Love can Happen after Loss
Novel's Circular Structure
Proof of the Regenerating Power of Love
From the Paper
"The human capacity for loving is proven as unquenchable: love can follow again even after the deepest relationship, although this feeling may be frustrating, as we see in Garret's case who finds it very hard to accept the death of his wife and to love again. Thus, love, life and death appear are very much connected in the novel, revealing an essential fact about the human condition: life and love seem to be somewhat in conflict all through the human existence. Man is first of all given life to, and his life span is delimited by destiny."

From the Paper
"In a discussion of eating disorders in relation to food and feeding in infancy and the early childhood years, Brazelton and Sparrow point out that one of the keys to healthy eating as an adult is associated with whether a child's earliest interaction with food was a strain or a struggle. While for any given child what constitutes strain or struggle can differ, Brazelton and Sparrow's remarks bring up the question of whether generally it is less of a strain on ... "

Abstract
The paper examines the Coke bottle, with specific reference to its status as a global meta-commodity or meta-symbol. The paper explores how material artifacts provide valuable insights into what is important to a culture. The paper analyzes the film "The Gods Must be Crazy", which illustrates how even the most powerful meta-symbol is powerful only because of its connotations and associations. The paper concludes by emphasizing how material artifacts affect our lives.
From the Paper
"The Coke bottle is one of the most recognizable material artefacts in the world. Its shape and distinctive label is recognized globally. For some it evokes warm, fuzzy feelings, and for others it invokes a paroxysm of anti-capitalist or anti-American feelings. It may evoke arguments about art vs. commodities, or about West vs. Islam. In the USA, your attitude to the bottle may depend on which side of the colour divide you fall on. Love it or hate it, it is unquestionably an important aspect of contemporary material culture."

Abstract
To identify the factors that serve to influence a mother's decision to breastfeed or bottle-feed her infant, this paper examines the cultural and social factors that have historically shaped these decisions during the period 1950 to date. The paper makes use of both historical and ethnographic qualitative methods. The results of the study serve as a useful framework in which to develop a best practices approach for clinicians to use in a wide range of treatment settings to help women make the right decision based on the scientific evidence rather than potentially spurious and unrealistic historical considerations concerning breastfeeding practices.

From the Paper
"Several factors serve to influence a mother's decision to breastfeed or bottle-feed her infant, including the media, public marketing of formula, hospital policies, work environments, social and personal support networks, cultural and individual beliefs, and breastfeeding advice by clinicians and non-health care professionals; unfortunately, all of these factors affect minorities in America disproportionately (Oyeku 2003:377). For example, the results of the 1988 National Maternal and Infant Health Survey provide some insight into contemporary factors that may account for the comparatively low breastfeeding rates among African American women today. In this survey, Beal and her associates determined that African American women were less likely than their white counterparts to recall receiving breastfeeding advice from clinicians and women, infant and children (WIC) counselors than white women.

From the Paper
"The Power Company is committed to excellence in every aspect of its operations and core values. From generating and supplying electricity for 2.25 million customers to educating children on electrical safety, the Power Company strives to surpass all expectations from its employees, the communities served, and the various governing bodies of authority. One of the main focal points of the Power Company is its commitment to safety for the employees. With the presence of extreme working conditions, hazards, and remote locations, the Power Company supplies its employees with bottled drinking water. The bottled water is not required by any governing agency, but it is an expense that the Power company deems necessary for the safety and good health of its work force. As each bottle of water is consumed, hidden expenses are created for the company. The concealed expenses that are incurred with each emptied water bottle are in waste disposal and the long-term effects on the environment. Recycling plastic water bottles is a program that the Power Company needs for both economical and environmental solutions."

From the Paper
"The subject of this paper is the effects of breast-feeding on infant nutrition and development as compared to the effects of bottle feeding. The issue of breast-feeding versus bottle feeding has been greatly debated by scientists, pediatricians and parents. Determining the benefits of breast-feeding infants is critical in enabling parents to make an informative choice when deciding to breast-feed or bottle feed their infants. Some scientists have found that breast milk contains elements that provide greater immunity to infants than formula milk, thus preventing them from getting infections (Rosenblith, 1992, p. 169). Furthermore, there is a close association between maternal-infant bonding and breast-feeding (Rosenblith, 1992, p. 169). Breast-feeding requires constant intimate physical contact between the mother and infant. After birth, the mother needs the..."

Bottled Water, 2007.
This paper discusses bottled water's myths and conveniences in light of its detrimental effects on the environment.

»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
The paper asserts that why bottled water has become such a successful product is truly a marketing mystery. The paper reveals that 40% of bottled water brands are just tap water! The paper then explains the conveniences involved in consuming bottled water. The paper discusses how the bottled water industry has a tremendous effect on fuel consumption. The paper maintains that we must create a cleaner environment by using water filters and similar alternatives to bottled water.
From the Paper
"Why bottled water has become such a successful product is truly a marketing mystery. It may be because the water is packaged in a nice neat plastic container that makes consumers believe that it is from some "magical" source that is pure and unique, unlike the tap water they drink daily. In fact, studies have shown that tap water is much more pure than many brands of bottled water, exclusive of those that contain only tap water, which may be as many as 40% brands (Food and Water Watch, 2007). Furthermore, many consumers believe that this "magical" water has certain health benefits, which as of yet has not been proven."

Abstract
This paper describes undisclosed bottled water contamination in America. The paper reports that most of the bottled water is not frequently checked, and that a small percent of it is unsafe for the public. It illustrates how the American public has been advertised into perceiving that bottled water is pure and clean. The author calls for the labeling of bottled water to disclosing the water source, treatments and other key information.
From the Paper
"According to a four-year scientific study made recently public by Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) stated that the sales of bottled water in the United States have been blown up in recent years, mainly as a result of a public awareness of purity driven by advertisements and packaging labels featuring unspoiled glaciers and crystal-clear mountain springs. However, bottled water sold in the United States does not necessarily cleaner or safer than most tap water (NRDC)."

Americans and Bottled Water, 2006.

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper explains that with advertising aimed at Americans, through billboards, magazines, and multimedia, bottled water is being promoted everyday and that the recent health craze has pushed the marketing of bottled water to the next level. The writer discusses the importance of water intake as an essential tool for survival while doctors claim that water can help facilitate the healing process. The crystal clear nutrient is often overlooked but should not be forgotten. Water is only second to oxygen in survival.
From the Paper
"Water consumption is crucial to health. In the worst case dehydration can become a literal life-or-death matter. But experts say that far too many individuals fail to recognize the simple but vital role water plays in just plain feeling good. Water has the power to make one feel healthy, revived, and balanced. Water is not the cure-all for every disease but can have an impact. To prove that water will have an impact on the body, go a day without drinking water. No one in his or her right mind would follow this advice because of human instinct. The body's systems would deteriorate and a person would feel run down. Water as it enters the body has several functions. With water being one of the main structures in the body, water intake helps to balance and regulate almost every system. Water is involved in temperature regulation, digesting and then excreting waste. Blood is water based; water lubricates internally, helps in chemical break down of the body's other nutrients, and cushions organs and joints."
