...Adventures in Cheating A guide to buying term papers online. Students, your semester is almost over. This fall, did you find yourself pulling many bong hits but few all-nighters? Absorbing much Schlitz but little Nietzsche? Attending Arizona State University? If the answer is yes to any or (especially) all these questions, you will no doubt be plagiarizing your term papers. Good for you—we're all short on time these days. Yes, it's ethically blah blah blah to cheat on a term paper blah. The question is: How do you do it right? For example, the chump move is to find some library book and copy big hunks out of it. No good: You still have to walk to the library, find a decent book, and link the hunks together with your own awful prose. Instead, why not just click on a term paper Web site and buy the whole damn paper already written by some smart dude? Que bella! Ah, but which site? I shopped at several online term paper stores to determine where best to spend your cheating dollar. After selecting papers on topics in history, psychology, and biology, I had each paper graded by one of my judges. These were: Slate writer David Greenberg, who teaches history at Columbia; my dad, who teaches psychology at the University of Rhode Island (sometimes smeared as the ASU of the East); and my girlfriend, who was a teaching assistant in biology at Duke (where she says cheating was quite common). So, which site wins for the best combination of price and paper quality? I compared free...

...We met at a cancer patients' support group at our church. I have lung cancer and have had it for as long as I remember. I had been attending for about a month when I met him. At first I didn’t really know anyone, but quickly I became friends with Dave, who like me, suffered from lung cancer. Dave had been attending cancer patients' support group for a very long time and he was the one who introduced me to Charlie. I first met Charlie on a Thursday. I clearly remember the day. It was raining and I was just about to leave support group and walk out into the parking space, when Dave shouted out my name. I had seen Charlie at the meetings, but I had never spoken with him though - he was very shy, compared to Dave who is a very extrovert person. I went over to them and Dave introduced me to Charlie. We shook hands and I felt this weird connection right away. I didn’t get his number, so we didn’t talk until the next support group meeting. I had never been looking forward to support group meetings. I had always wanted to skip the meetings and lay in bed instead, but this time I was really looking forward to support group, I could barely wait. And that was mainly because I wanted to see Charlie again. But he didn’t show up for the next meeting. I sat next to Dave, but I didn’t want to ask him about Charlie. I didn’t want him to know I was interested. When support group was over, I went out into the parking space like I used to and there he was. I didn’t know what to do, but fortunately...

...never fail to make the audience roll their eyes. In the vast sea of mediocre commencement speeches, only a few stray from the typical commencement speech formula and are considered exceptional. One of these notable commencement speeches is “This is Water” by David Foster Wallace. In his 2005 commencement speech to Kenyon College, David Foster Wallace’s makes a complete one-eighty from the typical commencement speech; discussing complex topics that were all too vital to the baby-faced, liberal arts graduates. He tackled the issues of human selfishness, default behavior, worship, truth of freedom, and awareness of our surroundings. Wallace’s background as a writer is crucial to understanding these themes. After the success of his novel Infinite Jest, Wallace became known as one of the most influential writers of modern times. Postmodernism, the genre of writing which he is known for, is defined by its criticism, skepticism, irony, and distrust of typical narratives and honest ideals of the work that preceded it. Likewise, This is Water shares this same theme of self-awareness which is so prevalent in the postmodernism. To start with, Wallace tells a story about a two fish swimming along who pass an older fish. When the older fish ask the two fish “How’s the water”, one of them responds with “What the hell is water?” The story itself reminds the audience that we are often unaware of our surroundings. The story also succeeds in introducing the main theme of his speech —Self awareness...

...Topic: In your considered (and informed) opinion, does foundationalism adequately address “the Problem of infinite regress” with respect to justification? Then follow this up by presenting your answer to this question in the form of a well composed argument for your reader in support of your conclusion. Renee Descartes was born to Joachim Descartes and Jeanne Brochard on March 31st 1596 in La Haye, France he was first credited with being “the father of Modern Philosophy”. Throughout Descartes years of study he was plague by the decision to question how much of his knowledge were true and how much were false. He set out to establish a system of knowledge on a foundation of beliefs whose truth could not be doubted. Descartes basic strategy was to consider anything false that present even the slightest doubt. This form of doubt is called the “hyperbolic doubt” and serves to clear the way for what Descartes considers as the unprejudiced truth. It was from this point that Descartes sets out in search for what lies beyond all doubts. Throughout this philosophy essay I will divulge more into what foundationalism is and how it attempts to address the problem of the infinite regress with respect to justification. Foundationalism has a long history; some view it as a structure of justification that we consider as a factor of what we take for granted based on knowledge. Foundationalism can also be defined as the search for the first cause; the search for beliefs that can serve...

...Oral Roberts University SUPERIORITY AND BLURRED LINES: An observation of the themes communicated in major DC Comics storylines Joshua Gallego Philosophy of Science HONR 102 Dr. Ken Weed/Dr. Samuel Thorpe March 13, 2014 Introduction Superheroes are part of an American upbringing. Stories of persons with capabilities that far exceed that of the human race are popular and appealing to our youth and even to many adults. Entertainment in general pervades the American culture, and this specific type of entertainment dealing with superheroes is of considerable size and has been a constant for several decades. Images of Superman, Captain America and many others are immediately recognized when seen. The entertainment value of these fictitious tales has caused the companies that own them to expand into creating computer games and producing movies, which has made them even more visible. It is considered weird if a person does not even know the basic story of these costumed figures. The adventures, stories, and even lives of these fictions have become a part of the American Psyche. Throughout the course of this semester, discussion in the Philosophy of Science class has led to topics such as the paradigms and presuppositions that we approach our world from and the metaphors that we use to communicate ideas and concepts. Such discussion has led to the asking of questions concerning things that we encounter in everyday circumstances. Questions like “What are the presuppositions...

...My Prediction for Season 2 flash story line includes Futures end influences and a Wally West Flash! Here is how I have come to that conclusion and then some. In Tuesday night's episode of The Flash during the body snatcher scene Eobard says to Harrison; "In the year twenty twenty (five years from now) you and your wife Tes Morgan successfully launch a particle accelerator that changes the course of history". Eobard accelerated that timeline, to the year 2015 (technically 2014, and they should have had the line read 2019). Five years from now, the DC Comic Universe plot line for Futures End is as follows: "Reeling from a war with Another Earth, leaving the world unprepared for an approaching evil that threatens to destroy the future can a time traveling Batman (beyond)." Now simply begin to replace batman with "Can a time-traveling Barry Allen, help a massive cast of the DCU’s finest avert the impending apocalypse caused by the changes to the timeline Eobard Thawn the Reverse Flash set in motion after the eventual survival of Barry's mother? That means season two should be getting heavy doses of influence from the Futures End storyline. For the new as-yet-unnamed show, they are casting characters like HawkGirl, so this gives some credibility to a "massive cast" I digress, now since Harrison wells and Tess Morgan will be the cause of the S.T.A.R. labs explosion in 2020, we should see some new superheroes from older cast members, like Cisco becoming Vibe and Mrs. Katlin snow becoming...

...Economic sanctions are more commonly being used to try and satisfy a wide range of foreign policies that America had deemed necessary to achieve for the betterment of society. Yet time after time these sanctions are only hurting innocent civilians that are not at fault, and in fact are not even achieving what they were supposed to do. In Arundhati Roy’s essay “The Algebra of Infinite Justice”, Roy critiques the statement given by former U.S. ambassador Madeleine Albright. When Madeleine is asked the question “How she felt about the fact that 500,000 Iraqi children have died as a result of economic sanctions the U.S. insisted upon” she replied with “it was a very hard choice, but all things considered, we think the price is worth it” (306). Roy then goes on to say that these sanctions are “massacres of innocent people” and that they cause for “collateral damage” (306). Superpowers such as the United States are imposing economic sanctions that are only in the best interest of the people of America and have no regard to the implications that these sanctions come with. Therefore, economic sanctions should not be imposed on nations because they directly impact ordinary civilians and...

...INFINITE REGRESS AND THE COSMOLOGICAL ARGUMENT I n recent years, there has been a revival of interest in that version o f the Cosmological Proof for God's existence which argues for the n ecessity of an uncaused or first cause. The argument can be p resented as follows: I ) We know that at least some things are caused to come i nto being 2) Either whatever causes something to come into being has i tself been caused to come into being or there is somet hing that causes something to come into being which has n ot itself been caused to come into being 3) But if whatever causes something to come into being has i tself been caused to come into being, there is an infinite series of causes stretching back in time 4) But there cannot be such a series 5) Hence there is something that causes something to come i nto being which has not itself been caused to come into b eing. T h a t is, there is an uncaused cause, and this is G od. N ow the major source of disagreement between the defenders and o pponents of this argument is over whether premise (4) is true, i.e. w hether an infinite series of causes stretching back in time is possible. A n umber of fallacious objections to the possibility of an infinite series have been exposed, 1 but there remains one objection that h as not, and in the opinion of several supporters of the argument, c annot be answered. This is essentially that if there were an infinite series of causes stretching back in time, in order to reach...

...The South DeKalb, Georgia, community of Belvedere Park has had a number of cases over the years involving gun violence along Glenwood Road: two DeKalb County Police Officers ambushed and murdered, another set of DeKalb County Police Officers injured in a shooting, a teenage male shot and killed, and just recently an infant child shot along with three other victims and more. Due to the alleged cases of police brutality occurring around the country with African-Americans, many Americans are a part of the "Black Lives Matter" movement, but when does Black lives matter? Only when it’s a matter of dealing with the police and/or when someone from outside of the African-American community commits the murder? Infinite Crossings, a grassroots organization based in the Belvedere Park community is working on an initiative to improve the lifestyles of low income and working class residents of Belvedere Park.
