Summary Of The Wholly Innocent By Bruce Dawe
Just as Bruce Dawe's poem The Wholly Innocent serves to provide a voice to aborted children, the purpose of The Land of Fair Go is very similar,
providing a voice to children who came from third world countries detained in detention centres, and are similarly voiceless to people of the first
world. Dawe also wrote regarding controversial issues in society, as does The Wholly innocent, which addresses immigration from third world,
war–torn countries. The treatment of refugees and asylum seekers when they approach Australia's borders and other first world countries is very
controversial, and

Irony has been incorporated by the author to make the audience think more deeply regarding this label, and also shows a different perspective to
this label throughout the poem. In the first stanza, both poems have incorporated repetition, which occurs at the beginning of lines 1 and 2, and 3
and 4, which serve to draw attention and make those line more memorable. In Dawe's poem the first stanza states how aborted children haven't
been outside or felt parental care, while in The Land of Fair Go similar subjects are explored and it also says how children detained haven't been
outside due to the fact they are either not allowed or are too scared due to the discrimination they face when been outside by locals. Stanza 1, line 3
also refers to the lack of parental care detained children receive, commonly due to been separated from their families. The second stanza of The
Wholly Innocent states how human right to vote is taken away from aborted children, while the the second stanza of The Land of Fair Go discusses
how the human right to freedom and the the human right to seek asylum are taken away from detainees. In stanzas 3, an sibilance "across the stormy
seas I went" has been incorporated in order to draw attention to those words, highlighting the conditions through which asylum seeker travel in order
to try find a place which would offer them a "fair go", and how instead they were send away to offshore detention centre. The following stanza
incorporates a metaphor describing the deportation of asylum as "a great game of political chess", showing how the actions of the government only
serve as something to gain popularity and advertise how they've "stopped the boats", showing how they are simply "pawns" – considered to be the
weakest piece in a game of chess – and dehumanised. In The Wholly Innocent,

The Bystander Effect Essay
The Bystander Effect

and the moon was NEW. As usual, I took my long walk starting from my neighborhood, till the next one and back. But this night was not just a normal.
It was a horrible yet frightening night that engraved one of the heaviest, most profound experiences in my life! "One of the ill effects of cruelty is that
it makes the bystanders cruel." (Thomas Fowell Buxton)
The typical night–walks I go for are around 10:00–11:00pm; just to have an introspective thought about myself, a moment of peace of mind and
relaxation. It was starting to get cold at night. I guess it was just the season. I was walking alone, hearing every step I made forward with my hands

Sleep Crisis? All Zzolved: A Short Story
"Work, work, work. That's all I have to do and I have no time to do it." Zach muttered to himself as he sipped his coffee while glancing at the news

The Froley: The Lack Of Big Boom
There are several reasons, though they all boil down to one simple statement – the soundtrack cues the audience as to their emotional reaction.First off,
consider the foley and sound effects. We all know what breaking glass sounds like, how tires sound when a car careens around a tight corner, and so
forth. This is also the reason for the huge, rumbling explosions in space – as unrealistic as it is to hear an explosion in space, we're so accustomed to
hearing them in real life that the lack of Big Boom would violate our necessary suspension of disbelief.
Additionally, a recognizable sound (such as a gunshot, a bestial growl, or a child's scream) that doesn't relate to what's on–screen at the moment ratchets

Nosferatu Essay
Response 1 Nosferatu
My experience watching a feature length silent film was very interesting, to say the least. I found it amazing that they were able to tell a complete

elements character development purely due to film length. I feel it would be very challenging to produce such a complex story under the constraints of
such a short film. I believe my experience to be very typical of someone who has never watched a full–length silent film, I was gripped with curiosity on
how this film would tell the great story of Dracula without the stereotypical screams and jump scares that horror movies today bring to the screen. I
feel like the film did a fantastic job of telling the story with the limitations of being able to use sound. I will be very interested in watching another

Nosferatu, however, focused heavily on the character's fear and and silent screams to set the tone of the film. I did not feel that same level of terror

"The girl and her trust" by D.W. Griffith felt like it achieved that sense of fear by using a choppy film style to capture the desperate feeling the
characters were having in their situation. The same approach was used to develop the fear Hutter was having towards Nosferatu.

Examples Of Foreshadowing In The Veldt
The Veldt Excessive attachment to technology can be dangerous to families and cause destruction. Ray Bradbury, the author of the short story "The
Veldt", has been described as "a mainstream fantasist of great brilliance" by Richard Wollheim. Lydia and George have raised two children, Peter and
Wendy, in an electronic house where they can have everything they ever wanted. Everything is done for them, replacing the need for real parents.
However, there is one exceptional room that the children have become excessively attached to. This room is known as the nursery, a high tech room
that converts into whatever the human mind can conjure up. The children's unhealthy attachment to this room leads to their parents demise, as it

A quote from "The Veldt" is "He showed it to her. The smell of hot grass was on it and the smell of a lion. There were drops of saliva on it, it had
been chewed, and there were blood smears on both sides" (Bradbury). Within the story, Bradbury uses foreshadowing shown through George's wallet
found on the nursery ground. This wallet had been chewed and smeared with blood, foreshadowing that soon, George would face his death. A quote
from another source is, "Bradbury uses this technique to hint at the fate of George and Lydia Hadley. While the two are lying in bed, they hear
screams coming from the nursery, and Lydia comments, "Those screams–they sound familiar." Later, the reader realizes that the screams sound familiar
to Lydia because they are actually her screams and those of her husband" (Ira Mark Milne). Another example of foreshadowing are the screams
George and Lydia hear throughout the story. The screams are a result of Wendy and Peter conjuring up the death of their parents with their minds in
the nursery. This ties to the theme because foreshadowing connects to the idea that technology takes reign in the lives of children. One last quote is,
"He bent and picked up a bloody scarf. "This yours?" (Bradbury). Once again, George discovers a sign of death within the nursery. The scarf gives an
insight into the children's minds, which are filled with dark thoughts. It foreshadows death once again, however, this time the personal item belongs to

Abortion In The Silent Scream
According to pioneer foetologist Albert Liley, by the fifty–sixth day after conception, the baby's spinal reflexes are sufficiently developed to feel pain.
This is shown in Dr. Bernard Nathanson's film, The Silent Scream, where the first ultrasound of an abortion.
The clip reveals an eleven–week foetus resting in her mother's womb. Suddenly she is alarmed because of the intruding abortion device and tries to
move as far away as she can. Just before her body is torn to pieces and sucked out through the tube, her tiny mouth opens in an unheard scream of fear.
After the abortion, the doctor who performed it was invited to watch the ultrasound. Once he had viewed it, he was so upset that he left the room. Ever
since that day, he never performed another abortion.
Additionally, in a 1997 court case, abortionist Leroy Carhart was asked to explain the procedure of abortion (dilation and evacuation) and then asked
if the baby was alive during the process. He said, "I know that the foetus is alive because I can see its heartbeat on the ultrasound." Later, he was
quoted saying, "My intent in every abortion I have ever done is to kill the feotus and terminate the pregnancy."
There you have it, straight from the abortionist's mouth: the child is alive when the abortion is performed.
That being said, one method to eradicate a baby from the womb is suction aspiration which is used within the first three months of pregnancy. During
this method, the doctor executing the abortion dilates

Is an Aborted Baby Only Potential Life ? Essay
Is an Aborted Baby Only "Potential Life" ?
Simmons says in Personhood, the Bible, and the Abortion Debate:
The genetic definition of personhood confuses potentialities with actualities. Potentialities are certainly important but they do not have the same value
as actualities. "An embryo is not a person but the possibility or the probability of there being a person many months or even years in the future,"
Charles Hartshorne has argued. "Obviously possibilities are important, but to blur the distinction between them and actualities is to darken counsel."

By eight weeks, when a woman generally discovers she's pregnant, all body systems are present (Hooker). One doctor, operating on an ectopic
pregnancy at eight weeks, discovered an "extremely alive," perfectly developed little person, vigorously swimming in his environment with a "natural
swimmer's stroke."(Rockwell 11) The preborn child is unmistakably human, unmistakably alive, and unmistakably distinct from the mother.
Does the baby feel pain in an abortion? The pain mechanism has been found to be functioning in the preborn child as early as 45 days after conception.
Abortion does cause pain (Reinis 223–235, Collins 922–923, Noonan 213). In the film, "The Silent Scream," an actual first–trimester abortion is seen
via ultrasound. The baby can be seen repeatedly moving to dodge the abortionist's suction instrument, and her heart rate doubles. As she is
dismembered, her mouth opens in a silent scream. Abortion is violence – against preborn children, and against the women in whose bodies the violence
takes place.
What about a woman's right to chose? It is not "choosing" that is ever an issue, but rather what is chosen. Women, like men, have the right to choose
many things. We can choose our careers, where we wish to live, whether or not to engage in sexual activity, etc. However, like the racist or the rapist,

Unborn babies are considered human beings by the U.S government. The federal Unborn Victims of Violence act was put in place to protect unborn
children from murder and assault.
Abortion is happening all around us so often. Teens and young adults are constantly having "fun," but as they do they put aside what they know can

He lost his will to live, his care for relationships with others, and his faith. After being dehumanized, he went from being at enlightenment to the
bottom of the hierarchy of human needs. In Night, Elie writes "Moishe had changed. There was no longer any joy in his eyes. He no longer sang. He
no longer talked to me of God or the cabbala, but only of what he had seen" (Wiesel 17). One of the few things that made Moishe human in his poverty

Analysis Of Silence By Silence Wiesel
"Silence is the most powerful scream," wise words spoken by an anonymous individual. Silence is sometimes more effective conveying a message
or idea than words are, an idea explored by Wiesel. His memoir describes the hardships and experiences of a teenage boy surviving through the
holocaust. He speaks of the unbearable situations he went through, such as going without food for days, watching his father die, and accepting the
physical abuse from SS officers. In the memoir Night, Wiesel uses structure, symbolism, and motifs to display the power and consequences of
silence. Throughout Wiesel's memoir, he utilizes structure to emphasis the power of silence. For example, Wiesel manipulates his text by
deliberately placing breaks between sections. Moreover, these breaks in paragraphs are used to draw attention to specific sections of the text
Wiesel considers important, or when there is a change in setting or scenery. Wiesel also includes a break in the text to assist the reader in following
the course of the text, the reader pauses, or takes a moment of silence, at these breaks. This provides the reader to stop and think about what is
happening in this part of the story, this is subtly powerful due to the reader being forced into being silent without knowing. Additionally, Wiesel uses
ellipses to display his silence: "'You promised... We want to go to the depot, we are strong enough to work. We are good workers. We can... we
want...'"(Wiesel 74). Elie has this mindset

Ticking Tension And Silent Screams

Film 270
23 October 2016
Ticking Tension and Silent Screams: Examining Sound in We Need To Talk About Kevin In director Lynne Ramsay's We Need To Talk About Kevin
(2011), dialogue serves as just one of many modes of sound used to guide the narrative. Through a series of flashbacks and flash–forwards,
orchestrated by diegetic and non–diegetic sounds, the film follows Eva Khatchadourian (Tilda Swinton), mother of baby Kevin (Ricky Duer) and,
later, teenage Kevin (Ezra Miller), as she recalls the influential events leading up to and the aftermath of Kevin murdering his peers and family with his
bow and arrow. While this gruesome film actually displays little violence on the screen, the properties of sound create the horror and trepidation
experienced by the audience. Perceptual properties of sound, including loudness and timbre, internal diegetic sounds, Eva's thoughts and sonic
flashbacks, and the use of silence when viewing interactions between Eva and Kevin, shape the audience's understanding of the film. The film employs
on–screen and off–screen diegetic sounds such as screaming, crying, and ticking and highlights objects/sounds which act as motifs. Additionally,
non–diegetic sound created through the soundtrack lends a sense of irony to different scenarios. While visuals and audio work together to create the

never shall I forget the small faces of the children whose bodies I saw transform into smoke under the silent sky. Never shall I forget those flames
that consumed my faith forever. Never shall I forget those moments that murdered my God and my soul and turned my dreams to ashes. Never shall I
forget those things, even were I condemned to live as long as God himself.
Never.

A few young men forced her to sit down, then bound and gagged her. Silence fell again. The small boy sat next to his mother, crying. I started to

This is the tenth time that Lisa has been admitted to the hospital within the past two years. At least this time there aren't any broken bones or

bruise on her neck and a few nails ripped directly from the newly manicured nail beds. Lisa swore to God and her best friend Brandy that this was the

There are cases where a victim of abuse feel that if they leave, the abuser will manipulate the children in taking their side. Men who abuse their wives
tend to persuade them into believing that there is nothing or nobody else outside the relationship. There has been several cases where the abuser will
actually convince the children that it is the victim's fault why they did bad things to them in hopes to mislead the child to turn their back on the
abused parent. Although it is very important that a person consider the sake of the kids when deciding if they want to go through with a divorce, the
jeopardy of one's life should always take precedence.
Low self–esteem can be a contributing factor when women decide to stay in abusive relationships. In many relationships where physical abuse is an
issue, the victim is usually verbally abused also. The abuser uses manipulative tactics to make the victim feel worthless, useless, and too afraid to leave
them. Many women have confessed that they believe it is their own fault why there are initially abused. After being brainwashed into thinking that they
are ugly, disgusting, and lazy or other derogatory characteristics, verbally abused women are being almost forced to believe that if they leave the
relationship that there is nobody else that would want to be with them. This unfortunate mindset leaves battered women in an extremely unhealthy and

How Do Genre Affect The Culture Of Horror Films
From bloody massacres to demonic possessions, the genre of horror has come a long way, todays horror movies have a variety of things in common
with horror movies from the early 1900s. Although horror movies have been around for decades, they've changed through out the years. From extreme
gore and gushing blood to edge full suspenseful horror; horror movies have different and unique styles. Described as an intense feeling of fear, shock,
or disgust (Horror Film History 2001). Horror is an ancient work of art that formally originated through story telling amongst different cultures. The
majority of horror films get their ideas or concepts through ancient horror folk stories. German folklore had a huge impact on the genre of horror with
its explicit genre of gothic horror throughout the 1700s. German expressionism was a form of cinema that rose across Europe showcasing distorted
reality with the expression of emotion. A new genre was born, silent films came around the early 1900s. With a black and white projector screening the
film on a big sheeted screen, along with an organist emphasizing creepy and "jump scare" like sounds. Organist were a huge impact within the silent

Humankind is constantly in search of answers about life. Where we come from, the purpose for life, while history is written day by day, minute by

I've been listening to those that are prochoice, honestly trying to understand their motivations for supporting the practice of abortion. I am far from
judging their opinions, I am trustful though that they will reflect on their belief through a shared value: the right to be as a human being, and for this
reason they will consider revising scientific facts. They state that the fetus is not a human being, just a mass of tissue; that nobody has the right to
impose their morals on others; that a woman should be able to control her own body. Moreover, they affirm that outlawing abortion would force
women to use back–alley abortion clinics. They believe that aborting unwanted children reduces the number of abused children and that the
overpopulated planet is going to benefit from this kind of "birth control." We all agree that the right to life is the first of the human rights, for without it
there are no other possible rights, such as the right to be treated as a person, to live free and to be treated equally. They apply to everyone and
everywhere, they are universally accepted values. The heart of the abortion controversy beats in the midst of the question about when life does begin,
when an embryo can be considered a human being, a person. Usually this is wrongly considered a matter of religious belief, although when life begins
is a question for science. We need to look at the debate through a scientific examination of facts which, when clearly understood,

Pros And Cons Of Abortion
Abortion is one of those heavy topics that either side can be right or wrong. Abortion mostly gets divided into two sides; Pro–Life or Pro–choice. On
the side of Pro– life a person believes that the government has an obligation to preserve all human life, regardless of intent, viability, or quality of life
concerns. On the side pro–choice a person believes that individuals have unlimited autonomy with respect to their own reproductive systems as long as
they do not breach the autonomy of others. (Head)
Many say abortion is wrong for many reasons, one main reason, life starts from the moment of conception. Pro – Life argues when the egg and sperm
join and form a zygote; this ball of cells continues to multiple and grows becoming a child. Not ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
No abortions would be permitted for any reason, including rape, incest or the health of the woman. (Anti–Choice Statements – Pro–choice Responses)
Another argument is abortion is murder and the fetus can feel pain. Pro – life argues that killing an innocent human being no matter if it is unborn, it is
still murder. They also argue that by eight weeks of gestation the spinal cord is developed. The spinal cord is "most primitive response to pain" which
is explained by Maureen Condic, PhD. Evidence found by Dr. Bernard N. Nathanson stating "We see [in an ultrasound image] the child's mouth open in
a silent scream... This is the silent scream of a child threatened imminently with extinction." (Grimes, 2011)
Pro– choice counters this with stating abortion that it should be a fundamental right and fetuses are incapable of feeling pain when abortion is
performed. It is argued any moment or reactions seen in fetuses when they detect pain are more of a reflex not actual proof that the fetus feels
anything. (McDonough, 2013) Even though the spinal cortex is needed to feel pain, neuroscientists believe that it does become functional until at least
26 weeks if development. At this stage in the child's development it is rare abortion happens. The choice should still be left in the mother's hand, for it

Tereus 'Silent Screams Of Philomel'
Silent Screams of Philomel Philomel is the princess of Athens and sister to Pronce who is the wife of Tereus, the king of Thrace. After an incident
which involved Philomel and Tereus, Tereus raped Philomel and warned her not to tell a soul. To make sure of this, Tereus cut out Philomel's tongue,
yet she managed to still tell her sister Pronce. So through revenge, they fed Tereus' brother to him and all this mess resulted in all three get turned into
birds. Philomel into a nightingale, Pronce into a swallow, and Tereus into a sea hawk. One thing that is kept in mind in this myth is the fact that
Philomel never really got the chance to tell more people of what happened to her due to her tongue being cut out and being turned into a bird made ...

This is first seen when all she is "left with is the naming, 'Tereu, Tereu'" (Gailey 36; line 4) showing that Philmol is attempting to say something,
for instance Tereus, and still trying to say something even though she's a bird. As a bird she on the bright side has the ability to sing, but her
"'gift'" (Gailey 36; line 6) isn't the much helpful and as "healing" (Gailey 36; line 7). Coincidently, the female nightingale is mute, while the males
are the ones who sing which is weird in the setting of the poem. Her sister Pronce is even mentioned, yet she "forgets" (Gailey 36; line 8) and sings
along nature. Philomel however "never changes her tune" (Gailey 36; line 10) and continues to sing of something more, possibly important to her.
So after they were turned into birds, Pronce confided with nature and thus became what she now is, however in Philomel's case, she still hung onto
what happened to her and feels it still needs to be heard. Towards the end of the poem, Philomel is described as "stubborn" (Gailey 36; line 15)
possibly referring to this difference in becoming of nature her and her sister have experienced. This stubborn description describes Philomel in that
she refuses to be what she is and still has something that she wants to be heard. With the inclusion of the fallen leaves and petals repeating "Stay

The Silent Scream: The Immmorality Of Abortion
Abortion is seen by some as the murder of a human being, an action that defies the word of God; others believe that abortion is a women's
fundamental right and any law that is against it is a violation of a woman's privacy and their free will. Those who are for abortion call themselves
"Pro–choice" while those who are against it call themselves "Pro–Life" or "Anti–Abortion". With all this in mind, it is easy to see why abortion is such
a controversial topic, and everyone's stance on it is different due to the morality, legality, and factors that affect someone individually will play a role
on deciding where you stand. Because finding the falsehoods and truth within each is how people should tackle the subject to then decide for

Wade, decided on Jan. 22, 1973 in favor of abortion rights, remains the law of the land. The 7–2 decision stated that the Constitution gives "a guarantee
of certain areas or zones of privacy," and that "This right of privacy... is broad enough to encompass a woman's decision whether or not to terminate her
pregnancy." The majority opinion in Roe v. Wade states that "the word 'person,' as used in the Fourteenth Amendment [of the US Constitution], does
not include the unborn."(Find Law, 1973). Another factor that is brought up by many is that embryos and fetuses are not independent,
self–determining beings, and abortion is the termination of a pregnancy, not a baby. A person's age is calculated from birth date, not conception, and
fetuses are not counted in the US Census. Which is true, however, that contradicts the federal Unborn Victims of Violence Act; which was enacted "To
protect unborn children from assault and murder." In it is stated that under federal law, anybody intentionally killing or attempting to kill an unborn
child should "be punished... for intentionally killing or attempting to kill a human being(GPO, 2004). Abortion is legal nationwide, nevertheless, there
are still people who try to limit the option of abortion for women, some even running abortion clinics out of business. Legality taken care of one has to

Introducing the mansion, a long distance shot is used. This gives a clear view of the front of the mansion and its immediate surroundings giving the
audience a full picture of where the film is set. The effect of lifeless immobility created by the camera's stillness makes the audience relaxed adding
shock to the effect of the scream that quickly proceeds in shot 2.
Unnatural silence creates a bizarre atmosphere that puts the audience in an uncomfortable position from the infinite background sound in everyday life.
The effect prepares the audience for something to happen and builds up tension. Creepy silence continues in shot 2 until Grace traumatically screams,
this is followed by unexpected laughter.
First, shot 2 opens with a close up shot on Graces face with several seconds' silence to add tension for the scream later on. The close up shot does not
allow us to see where the action is taking place initially because the lighting casts shadows and distorts the character's facial features. This baffles the
audience making it very successful.
Introducing Grace the director uses a close up shot on Grace's face. This emphasises the scream and enhances the information provided by allowing
us to follow her rapidly changing facial expressions. This is powerful since the audience become more involved as they see what Grace is going

When it is said that abortion is just a woman's issue, we forget that there are two people involved in creating a child. Fathers are continually
overlooked and disregarded in situations involving abortion. Many would say that a father is not affected by the woman's choice to have an abortion.
Legally, fathers are responsible for providing prenatal support for their preborn child, but have no legal rights if the mother decides to terminate the life
of that child. Many fathers have gone to court to try to stop mothers from going through with their abortions. However, according to the courts, when it

We know that the baby has a completely different circulatory system than the mother, and often a different blood type. He or she has a completely
different genetic code. We know that by the 21st day after conception the baby's heart has begun to beat (Tanner 64). Brain waves are detectable by
day 40 (Hamlin 20), and movement also begins around this time (Arey). By eight weeks, when a woman generally discovers she's pregnant, all body
systems are present (Hooker). One doctor, operating on an ectopic pregnancy at eight weeks, discovered an "extremely alive," perfectly developed little
person, vigorously swimming in his environment with a "natural swimmer's stroke."(Rockwell 11) The preborn child is unmistakably human,
unmistakably alive, and unmistakably distinct from the mother.
Does the baby feel pain in an abortion? The pain mechanism has been found to be functioning in the preborn child as early as 45 days after
conception. Abortion does cause pain (Noonan 213, Reinis 223–235, Collins 922–923). In the film, "The Silent Scream," an actual first–trimester
abortion is seen via ultrasound. The baby can be seen repeatedly moving to dodge the abortionist's suction instrument, and her heart rate doubles. As she
is dismembered, her mouth opens in a silent scream. Abortion is violence – against preborn children, and against the women in whose bodies the
violence takes place.

The Debate Between Pro Choice And Pro Life
Abortion The debate between pro–choice and pro–life has gone on for numerous years. Using medical technology medical staff and mothers are able
to see what happens to the unborn child during the abortion process. A mother can see the image of her unborn child; abortion should be illegal
because the unborn child feels pain, there can be medical complications to the mother and alternatives do exist.
Women are now able to see inside of the mother's womb and see the unborn child's heartbeat and sex of the child. This is done by ultra sound (US)
technology and can be seen in 2–D, 3–D and 4–D it is even possible to see the child in color. The mother can see the living child inside her. The ultra
sound serves as a window to the womb (Boucher 2004). Pro–life supporters have showmen the US picture and movies of the unborn child to women
who are planning to abort their pregnancy and stated that 90% of women have changed their minds. First trimester abortions account for 88.4% of the
USA and 73% in Canada. However, the US that is being shown is in the second trimester (Wiebe, & Adams 2009) to be able to see the growth of the
unborn child.

The Meaning Of Silence By Nadezhda Mandelstam
"Silence is the real crime against humanity," said Nadezhda Mandelstam (1999, p 405) in "Hoping against hope." When humans become silent, they
give up on what they believe in according to Mandelstam. Silence means that humans are no longer fighting for their beliefs or for humanity. When
a bull is being lead to its slaughter, it fights to be set free, but humans do not fight since it is considered courageous to be executed with your eyes
opens. Humans should follow the bulls and fight till the end. Bulls always act by natural instinct. They do not communicate with each other by telling
stories or sending letters and emails across the world. They are born with and follow their natural instincts. When a bull is lead to slaughter house, it
does not know that it is being led to its death, because a different bull never told it about this experience. Since the bull does not know that there is no

It is considered courageous to refuse a blindfold when the executer kills the human (Mandelstam, 1999, p 404). Humans know that they are being led
to their death beforehand. Humans know what is going to happen to them, they have read about the process, or someone has told them. They know
that they are going to die so they give up and loose hope in their own life. They become silent. People should become more like bulls. They should
never become silent. For example, when a person is beaten down on, they should scream to let their tormentors know in an effort to stop the pain
(Mandelstam, 1999, p 404). By screaming, a person is calling for help, and they are resisting the pain and torture. They are no longer silent
(Mandelstam, 1999, p 405). Sometimes, humans must follow their natural instinct and ignore the stories about failures that they have read or been told.

Summary Of The Wholly Innocent By Bruce Dawe

  • 1. Summary Of The Wholly Innocent By Bruce Dawe Just as Bruce Dawe's poem The Wholly Innocent serves to provide a voice to aborted children, the purpose of The Land of Fair Go is very similar, providing a voice to children who came from third world countries detained in detention centres, and are similarly voiceless to people of the first world. Dawe also wrote regarding controversial issues in society, as does The Wholly innocent, which addresses immigration from third world, war–torn countries. The treatment of refugees and asylum seekers when they approach Australia's borders and other first world countries is very controversial, and WRITER'S STATEMENTthere is a lot of secrecy regarding the conditions by the government. Certain government reports and other leaks and speculations by the ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Irony has been incorporated by the author to make the audience think more deeply regarding this label, and also shows a different perspective to this label throughout the poem. In the first stanza, both poems have incorporated repetition, which occurs at the beginning of lines 1 and 2, and 3 and 4, which serve to draw attention and make those line more memorable. In Dawe's poem the first stanza states how aborted children haven't been outside or felt parental care, while in The Land of Fair Go similar subjects are explored and it also says how children detained haven't been outside due to the fact they are either not allowed or are too scared due to the discrimination they face when been outside by locals. Stanza 1, line 3 also refers to the lack of parental care detained children receive, commonly due to been separated from their families. The second stanza of The Wholly Innocent states how human right to vote is taken away from aborted children, while the the second stanza of The Land of Fair Go discusses how the human right to freedom and the the human right to seek asylum are taken away from detainees. In stanzas 3, an sibilance "across the stormy seas I went" has been incorporated in order to draw attention to those words, highlighting the conditions through which asylum seeker travel in order to try find a place which would offer them a "fair go", and how instead they were send away to offshore detention centre. The following stanza incorporates a metaphor describing the deportation of asylum as "a great game of political chess", showing how the actions of the government only serve as something to gain popularity and advertise how they've "stopped the boats", showing how they are simply "pawns" – considered to be the weakest piece in a game of chess – and dehumanised.

  • 2. The Bystander Effect Essay The Bystander Effect "Mankind must remember that peace is not God's gift to his creatures; peace is our gift to each other." It was a dark cold night. The sky was dusky and the moon was NEW. As usual, I took my long walk starting from my neighborhood, till the next one and back. But this night was not just a normal. It was a horrible yet frightening night that engraved one of the heaviest, most profound experiences in my life! "One of the ill effects of cruelty is that it makes the bystanders cruel." (Thomas Fowell Buxton) The typical night–walks I go for are around 10:00–11:00pm; just to have an introspective thought about myself, a moment of peace of mind and relaxation. It was starting to get cold at night. I guess it was just the season. I was walking alone, hearing every step I made forward with my hands inside my jacket and my mouth covered with its tip; just to keep myself warm and not disturb my thoughts. The street lights were off. I could not even see my shadow on the ground. I felt something was wrong. Just that gut feeling that you sometimes get for no specific reason. So I decided to just forget about all the thoughts, focus on my walk, and try to make is as quick as possible to get back to the safety and ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... I couldn't just leave and keep everything as is. I just could not. But then I asked myself: why no one is doing something?! When I held my head up, I saw people standing on the fringe of their balcony, watching the whole plot as if it was some Shakespeare theatrical piece!! I thought of calling the police, but I knew it was useless, so I didn't. I thought of just standing in and defending her, but I anticipated that I might get myself into trouble than; and this way I would not be able to help. I knew I had to call somebody, just to scare him, just to let him go! The best alternative was to call an emergency ambulance and tell them that someone is ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 3. Sleep Crisis? All Zzolved: A Short Story "Work, work, work. That's all I have to do and I have no time to do it." Zach muttered to himself as he sipped his coffee while glancing at the news for that day. It read March 14, 2049, and had the usual front page title "Sleep crisis? All ZZZolved." What now? Another pill? They'll never fix this. Zach scrolled through the article with the smallest bit of hope. His eyes caught phrases that said "ongoing research" and "increase of insanity during sleep" and any small hint of expectation slowly died out. Sighing, Zach bought his ticket and went to the train station. He trudged through the hallway and found his seat. Unfortunately for him, his work was at the last stop so he had to wake up early and get home late. The bullet train coasted smoothly along the mountainous region and the edges of the windows began to frost over. Across from him sat a little boy, fiddling his thumbs. "Sir, why do you look like a zombie?" the boy questioned as he continued to twitch and fidget. "Well, I don't get much sleep nowadays. My job is difficult and I haven't found the time to rest in a while. Actually, I don't think I've ever... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Recently, many people have fallen victim to a sleep virus that made seemingly normal people go insane while in their only time of rest. More and more cases have appeared and yet scientists have no clue about what goes on in the mysterious cycle known as sleep. In severe cases, the victim falls into a coma and brain activity eventually ceases. Zach sighed and tried to seem sentimental but no feelings seem to surface. Just like everything else, nothing seemed to affect him. The bed seemed to be calling Zach and he crawled into bed as if he was under a trance. Just like always, he fixed his blankets, fluffed his pillow, and waited for sleep to come to him. Then, the familiar darkness slowly crept up to Zach as he went into the first stage of ...

  • 4. Canyon Descriptive Writing It was 1 hour before dawn. The thick gloomy grey blanket rolled through the towering canyon. The canyon walls loomed overhead as the razor blade ridges were sticking out. At the far end of the dark misty canyon is where the wall rose. The high reaching wall outstretched the length of the canyon leaving an impenetrable metal wall. A slight breeze whirled through the bottom of the treacherous canyon lifting the smell of the rotting dead. The screeching screams and shrieks of the savage demons were heard from the far. On top of the wall, the nervous army scattered around trying to get in position. Grabbing their weapons and clutching them till their hands went white with fear.

  • 5. The Froley: The Lack Of Big Boom There are several reasons, though they all boil down to one simple statement – the soundtrack cues the audience as to their emotional reaction.First off, consider the foley and sound effects. We all know what breaking glass sounds like, how tires sound when a car careens around a tight corner, and so forth. This is also the reason for the huge, rumbling explosions in space – as unrealistic as it is to hear an explosion in space, we're so accustomed to hearing them in real life that the lack of Big Boom would violate our necessary suspension of disbelief. Additionally, a recognizable sound (such as a gunshot, a bestial growl, or a child's scream) that doesn't relate to what's on–screen at the moment ratchets up the suspense by several notches. ...

  • 6. Nosferatu Essay Response 1 Nosferatu My experience watching a feature length silent film was very interesting, to say the least. I found it amazing that they were able to tell a complete story on only visual elements. Nosferatu had many similarities to "A trip to the Moon" by George Melies. Comparatively it had more storytelling elements character development purely due to film length. I feel it would be very challenging to produce such a complex story under the constraints of such a short film. I believe my experience to be very typical of someone who has never watched a full–length silent film, I was gripped with curiosity on how this film would tell the great story of Dracula without the stereotypical screams and jump scares that horror movies today bring to the screen. I feel like the film did a fantastic job of telling the story with the limitations of being able to use sound. I will be very interested in watching another full–length silent film from that era to see the difference in writing and filming styles. I would also be interested in re–watching Nosferatu during the night time to see if that elevates the experience of watching a horror in the ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Nosferatu, however, focused heavily on the character's fear and and silent screams to set the tone of the film. I did not feel that same level of terror among the gentlemen on the moon when the aliens arrived. "The girl and her trust" by D.W. Griffith felt like it achieved that sense of fear by using a choppy film style to capture the desperate feeling the characters were having in their situation. The same approach was used to develop the fear Hutter was having towards Nosferatu. Overall, I found the experience a positive one and I greatly enjoyed being able to compare the difference in film style to the current style of modern cinema. I will definitely be watching another silent film in the ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

I felt like I was being torn limb from limb slowly and painfully, as they ripped the burnt flesh from off my body. Everything hurt, and it felt like I wanted to cry, but I didn't, I wouldn't, not in front of Zander. He was standing at my bed side holding the hand that the hospital already fixed. But I couldn't grip his hand back, it was like I forgot how to move my ligaments. Zandar looked at me with despair, like he could see what I felt. "T, its ok I got you." he said as he cupped his other hand around my hand. I couldn't say anything no matter how hard I tried.

  • 8. Examples Of Foreshadowing In The Veldt The Veldt Excessive attachment to technology can be dangerous to families and cause destruction. Ray Bradbury, the author of the short story "The Veldt", has been described as "a mainstream fantasist of great brilliance" by Richard Wollheim. Lydia and George have raised two children, Peter and Wendy, in an electronic house where they can have everything they ever wanted. Everything is done for them, replacing the need for real parents. However, there is one exceptional room that the children have become excessively attached to. This room is known as the nursery, a high tech room that converts into whatever the human mind can conjure up. The children's unhealthy attachment to this room leads to their parents demise, as it replaces their actual... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... A quote from "The Veldt" is "He showed it to her. The smell of hot grass was on it and the smell of a lion. There were drops of saliva on it, it had been chewed, and there were blood smears on both sides" (Bradbury). Within the story, Bradbury uses foreshadowing shown through George's wallet found on the nursery ground. This wallet had been chewed and smeared with blood, foreshadowing that soon, George would face his death. A quote from another source is, "Bradbury uses this technique to hint at the fate of George and Lydia Hadley. While the two are lying in bed, they hear screams coming from the nursery, and Lydia comments, "Those screams–they sound familiar." Later, the reader realizes that the screams sound familiar to Lydia because they are actually her screams and those of her husband" (Ira Mark Milne). Another example of foreshadowing are the screams George and Lydia hear throughout the story. The screams are a result of Wendy and Peter conjuring up the death of their parents with their minds in the nursery. This ties to the theme because foreshadowing connects to the idea that technology takes reign in the lives of children. One last quote is, "He bent and picked up a bloody scarf. "This yours?" (Bradbury). Once again, George discovers a sign of death within the nursery. The scarf gives an insight into the children's minds, which are filled with dark thoughts. It foreshadows death once again, however, this time the personal item belongs to Lydia, foreshadowing her ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Charlotte Perkins Gilman Research Paper The Silent Scream Mental anguish and how it effects various people differently and is usually held inside and not talked about, to the point of being bottled up in to a Silent Scream. Many different things can cause mental anguish. From not living up to some loved one's standards causing feelings of being lesser than they should be. Doing a job for many years and never getting any credit or acknowledgement for it causing you to want to give up or in on life as they know it. All the way to watching someone die and even in some cases thinking or being the cause of their deaths.

Her husband keeps wants her to put down her pen and paper, relax and stay in one room as she is stressed. The doctor and her husband agree that this is the best cure for her depression or mental anguish. All though not really on board with this plan, as she wants to live, she goes along with her doctor and husband's blessing, holding her feelings inside "But John says if I feel so, I shall neglect proper self–control; so I take pains to control myself–before him, at least, and that makes me very tired" (Gilman, par. 26). In her husband holding her to this room, which has torn yellow wallpaper, she fades more and more into the faded torn walls "I'm getting really fond of the room in spite of the wallpaper. Perhaps because of the wall–paper. It dwells in my mind so" (Gilman, 94).

  • 11. Abortion In The Silent Scream According to pioneer foetologist Albert Liley, by the fifty–sixth day after conception, the baby's spinal reflexes are sufficiently developed to feel pain. This is shown in Dr. Bernard Nathanson's film, The Silent Scream, where the first ultrasound of an abortion. The clip reveals an eleven–week foetus resting in her mother's womb. Suddenly she is alarmed because of the intruding abortion device and tries to move as far away as she can. Just before her body is torn to pieces and sucked out through the tube, her tiny mouth opens in an unheard scream of fear. After the abortion, the doctor who performed it was invited to watch the ultrasound. Once he had viewed it, he was so upset that he left the room. Ever since that day, he never performed another abortion. Additionally, in a 1997 court case, abortionist Leroy Carhart was asked to explain the procedure of abortion (dilation and evacuation) and then asked if the baby was alive during the process. He said, "I know that the foetus is alive because I can see its heartbeat on the ultrasound." Later, he was quoted saying, "My intent in every abortion I have ever done is to kill the feotus and terminate the pregnancy." There you have it, straight from the abortionist's mouth: the child is alive when the abortion is performed.

  • 13. Is an Aborted Baby Only Potential Life ? Essay Is an Aborted Baby Only "Potential Life" ? Simmons says in Personhood, the Bible, and the Abortion Debate: The genetic definition of personhood confuses potentialities with actualities. Potentialities are certainly important but they do not have the same value as actualities. "An embryo is not a person but the possibility or the probability of there being a person many months or even years in the future," Charles Hartshorne has argued. "Obviously possibilities are important, but to blur the distinction between them and actualities is to darken counsel." The same point is made by John Stott in saying that the decision to abort for reasons of maternal health is "a choice between an actual human being and a potential human ...

One doctor, operating on an ectopic pregnancy at eight weeks, discovered an "extremely alive," perfectly developed little person, vigorously swimming in his environment with a "natural swimmer's stroke."(Rockwell 11) The preborn child is unmistakably human, unmistakably alive, and unmistakably distinct from the mother. Does the baby feel pain in an abortion? The pain mechanism has been found to be functioning in the preborn child as early as 45 days after conception. Abortion does cause pain (Reinis 223–235, Collins 922–923, Noonan 213). In the film, "The Silent Scream," an actual first–trimester abortion is seen via ultrasound. The baby can be seen repeatedly moving to dodge the abortionist's suction instrument, and her heart rate doubles. As she is dismembered, her mouth opens in a silent scream. Abortion is violence – against preborn children, and against the women in whose bodies the violence takes place. What about a woman's right to chose? It is not "choosing" that is ever an issue, but rather what is chosen. Women, like men, have the right to choose many things. We can choose our careers, where we wish to live, whether or not to engage in sexual activity, etc. However, like the racist or the rapist, we have no right to make choices that infringe upon the basic rights of others.

He lost his will to live, his care for relationships with others, and his faith. After being dehumanized, he went from being at enlightenment to the bottom of the hierarchy of human needs. In Night, Elie writes "Moishe had changed. There was no longer any joy in his eyes. He no longer sang. He no longer talked to me of God or the cabbala, but only of what he had seen" (Wiesel 17). One of the few things that made Moishe human in his poverty was his religion. Due to the events he witnessed, he was no longer happy, and he never again sang about the things he once cared for.

The Almighty, the eternal and terrible Master of the Universe, chose to be silent. What was there to thank Him for?" (Wiesel 33). Like Moishe, one of the things that was a large part of Elie's humanity was religion. When he and his father marched towards the crematorium, towards certain death, Elie's father began to recite a Jewish prayer for the dead. Upon hearing this, Elie became angry and questioned God. Elie had relied on God all of his life, but when terrible things began to happen to him and his loved ones and He was silent, his faith was lost.

  • 18. Analysis Of Silence By Silence Wiesel "Silence is the most powerful scream," wise words spoken by an anonymous individual. Silence is sometimes more effective conveying a message or idea than words are, an idea explored by Wiesel. His memoir describes the hardships and experiences of a teenage boy surviving through the holocaust. He speaks of the unbearable situations he went through, such as going without food for days, watching his father die, and accepting the physical abuse from SS officers. In the memoir Night, Wiesel uses structure, symbolism, and motifs to display the power and consequences of silence. Throughout Wiesel's memoir, he utilizes structure to emphasis the power of silence. For example, Wiesel manipulates his text by deliberately placing breaks between sections. Moreover, these breaks in paragraphs are used to draw attention to specific sections of the text Wiesel considers important, or when there is a change in setting or scenery. Wiesel also includes a break in the text to assist the reader in following the course of the text, the reader pauses, or takes a moment of silence, at these breaks. This provides the reader to stop and think about what is happening in this part of the story, this is subtly powerful due to the reader being forced into being silent without knowing. Additionally, Wiesel uses ellipses to display his silence: "'You promised... We want to go to the depot, we are strong enough to work. We are good workers. We can... we want...'"(Wiesel 74).

Ticking Tension And Silent Screams Sara Frank Dr. Schreiber Film 270 23 October 2016 Ticking Tension and Silent Screams: Examining Sound in We Need To Talk About Kevin In director Lynne Ramsay's We Need To Talk About Kevin (2011), dialogue serves as just one of many modes of sound used to guide the narrative. Through a series of flashbacks and flash–forwards, orchestrated by diegetic and non–diegetic sounds, the film follows Eva Khatchadourian (Tilda Swinton), mother of baby Kevin (Ricky Duer) and, later, teenage Kevin (Ezra Miller), as she recalls the influential events leading up to and the aftermath of Kevin murdering his peers and family with his bow and arrow. While this gruesome film actually displays little violence on the screen, the properties of sound create the horror and trepidation experienced by the audience. Perceptual properties of sound, including loudness and timbre, internal diegetic sounds, Eva's thoughts and sonic flashbacks, and the use of silence when viewing interactions between Eva and Kevin, shape the audience's understanding of the film. The film employs on–screen and off–screen diegetic sounds such as screaming, crying, and ticking and highlights objects/sounds which act as motifs. Additionally, non–diegetic sound created through the soundtrack lends a sense of irony to different scenarios. While visuals and audio work together to create the film, sounds in particular shape the spectator's perspective while allowing opportunities for further interpretation. In the opening ...

There are cases where a victim of abuse feel that if they leave, the abuser will manipulate the children in taking their side. Men who abuse their wives tend to persuade them into believing that there is nothing or nobody else outside the relationship. There has been several cases where the abuser will actually convince the children that it is the victim's fault why they did bad things to them in hopes to mislead the child to turn their back on the abused parent. Although it is very important that a person consider the sake of the kids when deciding if they want to go through with a divorce, the jeopardy of one's life should always take precedence. Low self–esteem can be a contributing factor when women decide to stay in abusive relationships. In many relationships where physical abuse is an issue, the victim is usually verbally abused also. The abuser uses manipulative tactics to make the victim feel worthless, useless, and too afraid to leave them. Many women have confessed that they believe it is their own fault why there are initially abused.

I am far from judging their opinions, I am trustful though that they will reflect on their belief through a shared value: the right to be as a human being, and for this reason they will consider revising scientific facts. They state that the fetus is not a human being, just a mass of tissue; that nobody has the right to impose their morals on others; that a woman should be able to control her own body. Moreover, they affirm that outlawing abortion would force women to use back–alley abortion clinics. They believe that aborting unwanted children reduces the number of abused children and that the overpopulated planet is going to benefit from this kind of "birth control." We all agree that the right to life is the first of the human rights, for without it there are no other possible rights, such as the right to be treated as a person, to live free and to be treated equally. They apply to everyone and everywhere, they are universally accepted values. The heart of the abortion controversy beats in the midst of the question about when life does begin, when an embryo can be considered a human being, a person.

The spinal cord is "most primitive response to pain" which is explained by Maureen Condic, PhD. Evidence found by Dr. Bernard N. Nathanson stating "We see [in an ultrasound image] the child's mouth open in a silent scream... This is the silent scream of a child threatened imminently with extinction." (Grimes, 2011) Pro– choice counters this with stating abortion that it should be a fundamental right and fetuses are incapable of feeling pain when abortion is performed. It is argued any moment or reactions seen in fetuses when they detect pain are more of a reflex not actual proof that the fetus feels anything. (McDonough, 2013) Even though the spinal cortex is needed to feel pain, neuroscientists believe that it does become functional until at least 26 weeks if development.

As a bird she on the bright side has the ability to sing, but her "'gift'" (Gailey 36; line 6) isn't the much helpful and as "healing" (Gailey 36; line 7).

"What is it?" I asked actually concerned. As she looked up to me I couldn't read her thoughts like I usually can. "It says you have not been accepted but you have another chance and must attend more classes and then report back to them at the end of the summer." She sighed. She's mad I can tell. I'm the first person in our family who has had this happen to them. "We need to call your father to have him set up some classes at the university!" She said frustrated. "But I applied to other colleges why don't we wait for the letter from them?" I argued. "Blyth why must you always argue about this?" She screamed louder than I've ever heard her scream before. I was silent, unsure of what to say. My mom and I have never had horrible fights, but I mean we have had some! Although I've never heard her scream like that we mostly just angrily talk to one another but this, this was different. For those moments after my mother screeched at me all was silent. There were no birds chirping, no dogs barking at mailmen, no one was mowing their lawn like usually on a Saturday morning. It was all...well...silent. "Um...I'm...uh sorry Blyth. I'm going to go talk to your dad." She mumbled. I sat there at the kitchen table wondering why she was so angry. There's no way she got that way just from me, is there? I thought to myself.

  • 33. The Silent Scream: The Immmorality Of Abortion Abortion is seen by some as the murder of a human being, an action that defies the word of God; others believe that abortion is a women's fundamental right and any law that is against it is a violation of a woman's privacy and their free will. Those who are for abortion call themselves "Pro–choice" while those who are against it call themselves "Pro–Life" or "Anti–Abortion". With all this in mind, it is easy to see why abortion is such a controversial topic, and everyone's stance on it is different due to the morality, legality, and factors that affect someone individually will play a role on deciding where you stand. Because finding the falsehoods and truth within each is how people should tackle the subject to then decide for themselves.... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Wade, decided on Jan. 22, 1973 in favor of abortion rights, remains the law of the land. The 7–2 decision stated that the Constitution gives "a guarantee of certain areas or zones of privacy," and that "This right of privacy... is broad enough to encompass a woman's decision whether or not to terminate her pregnancy." The majority opinion in Roe v. Wade states that "the word 'person,' as used in the Fourteenth Amendment [of the US Constitution], does not include the unborn."(Find Law, 1973). Another factor that is brought up by many is that embryos and fetuses are not independent, self–determining beings, and abortion is the termination of a pregnancy, not a baby. A person's age is calculated from birth date, not conception, and fetuses are not counted in the US Census. Which is true, however, that contradicts the federal Unborn Victims of Violence Act; which was enacted "To protect unborn children from assault and murder." In it is stated that under federal law, anybody intentionally killing or attempting to kill an unborn child should "be punished... for intentionally killing or attempting to kill a human being(GPO, 2004). Abortion is legal nationwide, nevertheless, there are still people who try to limit the option of abortion for women, some even running abortion clinics out of business.

Introducing the mansion, a long distance shot is used. This gives a clear view of the front of the mansion and its immediate surroundings giving the audience a full picture of where the film is set. The effect of lifeless immobility created by the camera's stillness makes the audience relaxed adding shock to the effect of the scream that quickly proceeds in shot 2. Unnatural silence creates a bizarre atmosphere that puts the audience in an uncomfortable position from the infinite background sound in everyday life. The effect prepares the audience for something to happen and builds up tension. Creepy silence continues in shot 2 until Grace traumatically screams, this is followed by unexpected laughter. First, shot 2 opens with a close up shot on Graces face with several seconds' silence to add tension for the scream later on. The close up shot does not allow us to see where the action is taking place initially because the lighting casts shadows and distorts the character's facial features. This baffles the audience making it very successful. Introducing Grace the director uses a close up shot on Grace's face. This emphasises the scream and enhances the information provided by allowing us to follow her rapidly changing facial expressions. This is powerful since the audience become more involved as they see what Grace is going through and become ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

  • 36. Abortion Is Not Strictly the Woman's Private Matter Essay Abortion Is Not Strictly the Woman's Private Matter When it is said that abortion is just a woman's issue, we forget that there are two people involved in creating a child. Fathers are continually overlooked and disregarded in situations involving abortion. Many would say that a father is not affected by the woman's choice to have an abortion. Legally, fathers are responsible for providing prenatal support for their preborn child, but have no legal rights if the mother decides to terminate the life of that child. Many fathers have gone to court to try to stop mothers from going through with their abortions. However, according to the courts, when it comes to abortion, a mother's right to abortion overrides a father's objections. ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... We know that the baby has a completely different circulatory system than the mother, and often a different blood type. He or she has a completely different genetic code. We know that by the 21st day after conception the baby's heart has begun to beat (Tanner 64). Brain waves are detectable by day 40 (Hamlin 20), and movement also begins around this time (Arey). By eight weeks, when a woman generally discovers she's pregnant, all body systems are present (Hooker). One doctor, operating on an ectopic pregnancy at eight weeks, discovered an "extremely alive," perfectly developed little person, vigorously swimming in his environment with a "natural swimmer's stroke."(Rockwell 11) The preborn child is unmistakably human, unmistakably alive, and unmistakably distinct from the mother. Does the baby feel pain in an abortion? The pain mechanism has been found to be functioning in the preborn child as early as 45 days after conception. Abortion does cause pain (Noonan 213, Reinis 223–235, Collins 922–923). In the film, "The Silent Scream," an actual first–trimester abortion is seen via ultrasound. The baby can be seen repeatedly moving to dodge the abortionist's suction instrument, and her heart rate doubles. As she is dismembered, her mouth opens in a silent scream. Abortion is violence – against preborn children, and against the women in whose bodies the violence takes place. What about a woman's right to ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 37. The Debate Between Pro Choice And Pro Life Abortion The debate between pro–choice and pro–life has gone on for numerous years. Using medical technology medical staff and mothers are able to see what happens to the unborn child during the abortion process. A mother can see the image of her unborn child; abortion should be illegal because the unborn child feels pain, there can be medical complications to the mother and alternatives do exist. Women are now able to see inside of the mother's womb and see the unborn child's heartbeat and sex of the child. This is done by ultra sound (US) technology and can be seen in 2–D, 3–D and 4–D it is even possible to see the child in color. The mother can see the living child inside her. The ultra sound serves as a window to the womb (Boucher 2004). Pro–life supporters have showmen the US picture and movies of the unborn child to women who are planning to abort their pregnancy and stated that 90% of women have changed their minds. First trimester abortions account for 88.4% of the USA and 73% in Canada. However, the US that is being shown is in the second trimester (Wiebe, & Adams 2009) to be able to see the growth of the unborn child. Many states now require that a woman who is going to have an abortion view an US prior to the abortion. In a survey that was conducted many women felt that viewing the US was a positive experience even though some still chose to go through with an abortion. Patients have stated that seeing the US was helpful, but the US images needed ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 38. The Abortion Debate The U.S government considers unborn babies human beings and by having an abortion the mother is killing an innocent human being. "Abortion is murder" ("Abortion ProCon.org"). Abortion is the deliberate termination of a human pregnancy. Simply, the mother undergoes a procedure to kill her child. Even though some may argue that abortion is a woman's choice, studies have shown that abortion shows harm to both the mother and the child. Being pregnant, one has options, aborting the baby is not the only solution ("Abortion Information | What are your options").

Rag dolls retired to the dumpster after their crystal hearts crack. The boys drink whisky from their fathers' flasks. It's from the dogs being beaten on the streets by boys' batons. Half the dogs run on three legs and the other half have stopped fighting. It's from the unborn and the dead. The candle wicks. The country flags whipping in the wind. These are his lullabies.

  • 40. The Meaning Of Silence By Nadezhda Mandelstam "Silence is the real crime against humanity," said Nadezhda Mandelstam (1999, p 405) in "Hoping against hope." When humans become silent, they give up on what they believe in according to Mandelstam. Silence means that humans are no longer fighting for their beliefs or for humanity. When a bull is being lead to its slaughter, it fights to be set free, but humans do not fight since it is considered courageous to be executed with your eyes opens. Humans should follow the bulls and fight till the end. Bulls always act by natural instinct. They do not communicate with each other by telling stories or sending letters and emails across the world. They are born with and follow their natural instincts. When a bull is lead to slaughter house, it does not know that it is being led to its death, because a different bull never told it about this experience.

It is considered courageous to refuse a blindfold when the executer kills the human (Mandelstam, 1999, p 404). Humans know that they are being led to their death beforehand. Humans know what is going to happen to them, they have read about the process, or someone has told them. They know that they are going to die so they give up and loose hope in their own life. They become silent. People should become more like bulls. They should never become silent. For example, when a person is beaten down on, they should scream to let their tormentors know in an effort to stop the pain (Mandelstam, 1999, p 404). By screaming, a person is calling for help, and they are resisting the pain and torture. They are no longer silent (Mandelstam, 1999, p 405).
