From the Paper
"Posting flyers at schools and Mass targeted mailings at unsubscribed students can be used to further market the YPRC in order to supplement station purchases (which provide 97% of sales). Other mediums used in the past are phone orders and travel agents. Digital media such as the internet, traditional radio, satellite radio etc will also play a vital role in the marketing campaign. This would include search engine promotion of the Young Persons Railcard website, search engine optimization (SE0), article publication, banner ads, newsletters, email marketing, newsletters, radio ads, etc..

From the Paper
"In purely physical terms, young adulthood encompasses only minor physiological changes, compared to those that occur at puberty. People can experience additional modest gains in height and in muscle development from their late teens to their early twenties, but generally do not experience major physical changes until middle age. However, young adulthood is a period of profound psychosocial and cognitive developments. Erik Erikson's theory of psychosocial development builds on the work of Sigmund Freud. Like Freud, Erikson basis his theory on the idea that internal, biological factors largely determine one's personality. However, while Freud's theory stops at adolescence, Erikson's psychosocial stages continue into adulthood.
Erikson believed that a person's social and cultural surroundings had a strong influence on one's psycho-social development."

?Young Goodman Brown?, 2002.
A review of Nathaniel Hawthorne?s novel, ?Young Goodman Brown?.
2,257 words (approx. 9.0 pages), 6 sources, MLA, $ 69.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper examines how Nathaniel Hawthorne?s ?Young Goodman Brown? details the temptation and eventual disillusionment of a young Puritan man, who, when confronted with the massive possible hypocrisy of the community in which he lives, is unable to adapt successfully to a portrait of the world that does not live up to his romantic ideals. It looks at how Hawthorne weaves enough structural ambiguity into the story to make it unclear for both the reader and for Brown just what the actual reality is and how, at its conclusion, we are left to a realm of unknowns and suspicion as much as he is. It shows how, ultimately, the story of "Young Goodman Brown" is the story of a young man who, once his romantic ideals about the world are tested, lapses instead into a cynicism and frustration that represents the completely opposite end of the spectrum.
From the Paper
"Nathaniel Hawthorne?s Story ?Young Goodman Brown? opens with a brief exchange between Young Goodman Brown and his wife, Faith, whose very name points to an obvious symbolic dimension of her character in the story. We discover quickly in their exchange of dialogue that they are newlyweds, very much in love. Indeed, the fact that they are newly married, as well as the title of ?young? that precedes Goodman Brown?s name all inform us that the are both new to the world of independent experience, that the still possess many romantic illusions about life, and that they are generally inexperienced. Yet, at their otherwise sweet parting, there is a strangeness. Faith asks her husband not to depart on his unspecified errand and suggests that she has had some sort of premonition, a premonition that Young Goodman Brown himself seems to share."

From the Paper
"In addition, a number of states do not have a daily physical education requirement, and even in those that do, many children in physical education classes are not meeting the desired physical fitness goals. Finally, an increasing number of American children are engaging in sedentary activities such as television viewing and web "surfing," trends that are increasingly occupying significant amounts of children's free time (Dietz, 1990). There are a wide range of approaches to help reduce sports-related injuries in young athletes such as coaching education, parent education, proper equipment; in addition, the establishment of fundamental fitness abilities, including preparatory muscle conditioning as a preventative health measure should not be overlooked. According to the American College of Sports Medicine, up to 50 percent of all injuries sustained by children while playing organized sports are likely preventable (Smith, Andrish, & Micheli, 1993)."

Abstract
In this article, the writer firstly critically analyses the health and well being outcomes for young people leaving care; addressing the areas of mental health, physical and learning disabilities. Secondly a critical evaluation of both national and specific LAC focused health promotion strategies is discussed and the impact of these on the young person's journey through care is provided, with particular attention paid to young people affected by disability and mental health problems. Throughout the essay an awareness of oppressive and discriminatory practices is demonstrated.
From the Paper
"As mentioned earlier, mental health problems are very prominent in care leavers. Once a young person reaches 18 years of age, there are often problems with accessing adult services. Young people with mental health problems can find it very difficult when they become care leavers. Mental health issues are sometimes left undiagnosed in looked after young people as doctors and psychologists sometimes feel that they do not want to "label" young people. This could be because there is still a stigma attached to having a mental health issue. However, on the opposite side of this, if a mental health issue is not diagnosed then resources are not made available to the young people when they may need them in order to lead a full and health life. Another difficulty for care leavers who move on to adult services, is that they may forget appointments and no-one is there to remind them or take them to appointments, this means that the young person is not receiving the care and support they may need."

Young Adult Catholics in America Today, 2005.

Abstract
When it comes to young adult Catholics in the United States, we see the entire spectrum. There are some who are Catholic in name only, take it as a given, and don't seek to know any more. They may go church but it isn't something that makes a difference or impact in their life. Then, there are those whose faith has become central in their lives. The paper shows that for many members of this generation, spirituality outranks the rules and practices of religion. For others, doctrine is set in stone and should be studied in depth. Still others are too busy to think in either of these ways as they are out in the world being the hands and feet of Christ. The paper shows that these young adults are not their parents, but they do not disregard what their parents have achieved for them as they set out to form their own history. This generation will not be afraid to take what it needs from religion and change what has become obsolete. The paper concludes that the current status of young adults Catholics in America is wide-ranging, but if anything, that should give hope to American Catholics because it means that their Church is becoming just as inclusive as the world "Catholic" implies.
From the Paper
"With a new education and their own identity as a generation, young adult Catholics in America today also have their own outlook on traditional practices. From the very public experiences of local parish involvement, to personal devotions, young Catholics are developing their own standards. America's young adult Catholics actually show a lower level of mass attendance than they did thirty years ago. This trend may be explained simply by feelings of indifference, but more likely is a result of a new concept of what it means to be Catholic. Many hold the belief that one can be a good Catholic, and have a substantial relationship with God, without being a part of customary practices within a parish."

Abstract
The paper discusses the Thresholds Young Adult Program that was established in 1974, to assist the teenager with mental illness to transition into the adult world. The goals of this program are two-pronged, as it provides services that not only assist the teenager with learning the tasks of adult daily living and also seeks to guide the teenager along the path of recovering mental health. This paper provides a brief overview of the Young Adult Program.
From the Paper
"The Thresholds Young Adult Program is a day program focused on the needs of teenagers with mental illness. The day program is located at 4219 N. Lincoln, Chicago. The mission of this program is to "engage and empower young adults" in their efforts to become independent adults. Thresholds' "Loren Juhl Young Adult Program" was established in 1974, to assist teenagers with mental illness to transition into the adult world. The goals of this program are two-pronged, as it provides services that assist teenagers with learning the tasks of adult daily living and seeks to guide teenagers along the path of recovering mental health. This program was developed five years after the overall Thresholds school was established, to provide services to students with the specific special needs that accompany mental illness."

Young, White, and Miserable, 2009.

Abstract
In this article, the writer discusses that in 'Young, White, and Miserable: Growing up Female in the Fifties', the author, Wini Breines, addresses a lot of the issues that took place in that time period where young women and teenage girls are concerned. The writer notes that one of the most important of these issues is the fact that these women, just a few years later, became feminists - many of them radical - and changed the course of history, which is a fact that is often overlooked today. The writer discusses that had it not been for all of the changes that began taking place in their younger days during the 1950s, society's women might not have come nearly as far as they have when it comes to equality and the rights that they enjoy. The writer concludes that overall women are no longer seen as being weak and inferior in developed countries throughout the world, and this is especially true in the United States, where changes started in the 50s have helped today's women gain ground and move toward equality.
From the Paper
"Breines is skillful in pointing this out, because it is important that readers understand the build-up behind the problems that women faced in the 50s. Throughout history women had been considered to be a serious source of evil and temptation and they had also been believed to be intellectually inferior. Men treated them with little respect and left them out of decisions and the like. During the 1940s and 1950s, women were hungry for more power. Many of them had gone to work during the war, because there were so many men overseas that companies did not have anyone else to work in their factories. They had no choice but to employ women and they found, oftentimes, that these women were very good workers and had much to offer to the company. They were smart and they were loyal. However, when the men came back most of them went back to work in the factories, and the women had to find other pursuits. This made them interested in change. They had already proven that they could do the job just like a man, and now they wanted to have that chance to be equal again."

Abstract
This paper discusses the events that led to the spiritual evolution of Stephen Dedalus in James Joyce's "A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man". The paper examines the significant events that mark moments in Stephen's life when he realizes that life is complex and that following one's dreams is not always as easy as it seems. The paper describes how Stephen develops and matures throughout the novel, evolving from a young, quiet boy into the spiritually aware artist that we see at the end of the novel.
From the Paper
"One early event in Stephen's life that leaves a significant impression of Stephen is the confrontation in the schoolyard. When his schoolmates ask him whether he kisses his mother at night or not, Stephen becomes aware of a difference between them. Tracey Schwarze, in her article, "Silencing Stephen: colonial pathologies in Victorian Dublin," states that "Stephen's need for an exalted place in the school yard hierarchy is a direct result of the oppression he experiences there" (Schwarze). Stephen struggles and feels "his whole body hot and confused" (Joyce 14) because he does now the answer to the question. Both replies to this question cause the other to laugh at Stephen. As a result, Stephen tries to figure out "what was the right answer."

"Young Goodman Brown", 2009.
An analysis of Nathanial Hawthorne's "Young Goodman Brown" as an anti-parable.
980 words (approx. 3.9 pages), 5 sources, MLA, $ 34.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
The paper relates that Nathanial Hawthorne's "Young Goodman Brown" has many of the characteristics of a parable but is missing a moral ending. The paper analyzes how "Young Goodman Brown" is composed of stereotypical characters and a metaphorical plot that together create the parable-like feel of the piece. The paper then explains that Hawthorne's intention of creating a parable-like story structure with an anti-parable ending was to suggest that humans are far too complex for a parable-like morality.
From the Paper
"The parable or morality tale is a literary genre that has transcended both culture and time. From Jesus' biblical parables to fables and fairy tales told to children to Russian author Leo Tolstoy's, "How Much Land Does a Man Need," the genre provides a stereotypical characters, symbolic items and events, and a plot centered around the communication of a moral. Like these examples, Nathanial Hawthorne's "Young Goodman Brown" has many of the characteristics of a parable. Even the name "Young Goodman Brown" suggests that the story's main character is intended to symbolize the plight and struggles of every young man. Similarly, Faith is obviously a symbol of the young woman's similar plight in addition to a commentary on the characteristic espoused by her name, and the Devil, along with those Young Goodman brown meets on the way to his deep woods assembly are symbolic representations of those who are stereotypically most pious."

"Young Goodman Brown", 2007.
This paper examines the story "Young Goodman Brown" by Nathanial Hawthorne.
1,000 words (approx. 4.0 pages), 3 sources, MLA, $ 35.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
In this article, the writer introduces, discusses and analyzes the short story "Young Goodman Brown" by Nathanial Hawthorne. Specifically it discusses symbolism in the short story. The writer notes that symbolism is rampant in this short story of a young man who takes a trip into the forest and returns a changed man. Further, the writer points out that Hawthorne uses symbolism to represent evil in many areas of the story, from the dank depressing forest to the traveler who carries a cane with the head of a snake. The writer notes that the devil lives in this story, and comes alive with the symbolism Hawthorne chooses to portray evil and fear.
From the Paper
"Thus, Hawthorne uses Brown as a symbol of the success of the devil's corruption. Did he only dream everything he saw in the forest? Perhaps. Even if he only dreamed of the devil, he allowed him to corrupt his soul, kill his love, and change his life, so the devil won, and Brown lost. This symbolizes the evil in each of us, but it also symbolizes just how powerful the devil can be. Even if Brown only imagined him in the forest, he is still a powerful force in the story and in Brown's remaining life. It has to make the reader question Brown's conviction. He is determined to believe that those around him are corrupt and evil, and yet he has become worse than they are - unhappy and unloved. Those around him are happy, even if they are corrupt, while he is "desperate" and "distrustful." Who is the more evil in this story? Brown becomes the most evil member of the village, and yet he is convinced that he is the only "good" influence in the town. He cannot see that everything he symbolizes is evil and distrustful of others."

Hawthorne?s ?Young Goodman Brown?, 2002.
Examines issues of truth, faith and hypocrisy in Nathaniel Hawthorne's story "Young Goodman Brown".

»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
Nathaniel Hawthorne?s short story ?Young Goodman Brown? is an allegorical account of a young man?s journey one dark night into the forest outside of Salem to meet with the Devil. The paper discusses how, after the night of his journey, Brown can never look at another person without seeing that individual?s hidden sin and hypocrisy and he loses his faith in religion, along with his faith in mankind. The paper focuses on the theme of truths in the novel, especially the one truth emphasized by Hawthorne, that every human, no matter how pious he or she claims to be, has not only the potential to be a sinner in thought and action, but also has committed some sort of sin.
From the Paper
"Oblivious to everything except man?s potential to sin, Brown becomes suspicious of every person with whom he comes into contact. He begins to see evil where none exists. Returning home from his journey the following morning, Brown observes Goody Cloyse catechizing a young girl of the village. Brown ?. . . [snatches] away the child, as from the grasp of the fiend himself? (128). At this moment, he forgets that Goody is the godly woman who once taught him his own catechism. From then on, Brown is ?a stern, a sad, a darkly meditative, a distrustful, if not a desperate man? and finds listening to the church congregation sing psalms, as well as hearing the minister preach, almost unbearable. Indeed, being in church causes him to ?turn pale, dreading, lest the roof should thunder down upon the gray blasphemer and his hearers? (129)."

"To Hell and Back": Young Goodman Brown, 2008.
A discussion of the struggle between good and evil in Nathaniel Hawthorne's novel "Young Goodman Brown."
1,411 words (approx. 5.6 pages), 0 sources, $ 47.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper explores how Nathaniel Hawthorne applied his personal views of Puritan life to the development of an allegorical tale of the problem of evil in his work "Young Goodman Brown." The writer points out the connection of several symbols and references in the novel to the Bible and its stories of faith and evil. The writer also describes how Goodman Brown loses his innocence and his faith in a night of deception that is sufficient to destroy his life. The writer concludes that "Young Goodman Brown" takes us on a journey that plummets us to the depths of sin and to the realization that nothing is what it seems.
From the Paper
"Along Young Goodman Brown's journey he meets an older man that resembles him. This man is carrying a staff, like many powerful biblical figures in the past, such as Moses and Abraham. The reader believes that the staff symbolizes a snake, a symbol of the devil; it is believed that the man Young Goodman Brown meets, is indeed the devil. Immediately another Biblical connection is drawn: when Jesus was led into temptation by the Devil. He was taken to three spots, including a building top and was asked to test God's power by providing for Jesus. Also the staff represents the idea of "original sin". As Adam and Eve were tempted by the forbidden fruit, Goodman Brown was tempted by the devil to accept evil into his life."
