Exercise One: Judging the book by its cover, Mary Anne Brifman is a woman of style and sophistication. She wore a timeless black blouse and laced herself in strands of stunning white pearls. The delicate wrinkles in her décolletage and her loosely pined wisps of hair defied the stereotypes of a prominent Madam. By The light in her face when she talked you also wouldn’t guess she was back in Queensland to deal with her mother’s murder. In fact, the only thing that hinted at her naughty and troubled life chapters were her cocked eyebrows, a few frown lines, her cheeky smirk and the way she commanded your attention from a knowingly raised finger.

Answer – Phyllis Tickle borrows an amazing analogy from an Anglican bishop named Mark Dryer to describe an occurrence that happens around every 500 years in the church; in which, the changes of the culture forces the church evaluate beliefs and doctrines (Tickle 152). Specifically, Tickle says, “It is the business of any rummage sale first to remove all of the old treasures that belonged to one’s parents so as to get on with the business of keeping house the new way” (Tickle 535-536). Her point can be seen in the example of the church teaching the earth was flat and the center of the universe, only to find out through Copernicus’ theory; and the later the sailing of Columbus, that the earth is round and not the center of the universe (Tickle

Throughout the last three years, I have worked with the elderly in a nursing home called Aase Haugen as a certified nursing assistant.

Are you an optimist or a pessimist? These kinds of questions usually say a lot about how your mind works and how you perceive the world. Both positives or negatives are a valid point of view though optimistic perspectives are usually more common. From poems and essays to short stories and articles, the perspective and tone matter. In the poem “Speech to the Young” by Gwendolyn Brooks she writes about how the old had self-sabotaged themselves with their pessimistic attitude and elucidated on how the young can't let it repeat again, and in the poem “Speech to the Young” by Gwendolyn Brooks the writer displays a coherent optimistic tone because of the positive message conveyed throughout the piece.

During the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries in Europe, many women were not only actively participating in scientific research, but they were making extraordinary breakthroughs that men before them had not been able to accomplish. This resulted in many different reactions and responses towards women scientists. First, many men thought that women had no place in science at all, and that women should be restricted to work in the household. Secondly, many women had to go against the societal norms at the time, and take part in higher education. Thirdly, many heated arguments took place between people who disagreed.

I chose The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks by Rebecca Skloot as my midterm book for a number of reasons. I thought the topic was very interesting and it initiated a passionate response in me from the beginning. Before I opened the book, I could not imagine how someone could take another person’s cells without getting permission and not be punished. After reading this book, I have realized that there is more to this issue than just “stolen” cells. It also covers informed consent, financial compensation, and our rights to our cells.

Assignment 1: Explicating arguments The article Marcia Angell wrote discusses the ethics of running clinical trials in areas of poverty such as third world countries. It is largely stressed that the well-being of participants should be the main priority of the study, above research goals and quick results. She explains that participants in clinical trials must receive the best-known treatment available when part of the control group; otherwise, researchers would knowingly be giving participants sub-par treatment compared to the drug being studied. To enact justice, even those living in third world countries should be receiving the same treatment that a participant in a first world country would receive.
