    Is Life Truly a Beach?

    Life is a beach, meaning life is good! When comparing the novels Lord of the Flies by William Golding and The Beach by Alex Garland, it is reasonable to disagree with this common saying. With the many conflicts concerning leadership roles as well as rules and chores these secluded societies are both ultimately destroyed because of humankind’s barbaric behaviour. These many conflicts suggest that life really isn’t a beach and it is a poor comparison.

    Consumer Response to Utilization of Comparison Prices in Retail Advertisements

    Consumer response to utilization of comparison prices in retail advertisements ABSTRACT The use of comparative price advertising is widespread.

    In his play, Death and the King's Horseman, Wole Soyinka would have us examine every clash and conflict, save for the one involving culture. Certainly this may seem the most obvious part of the play, but we would do the general understanding of Death a disservice if we ignored one of the central conflicts in the play. Every element of the play is placed in terms of two extremes, and the cultures must be considered

    Death Penalty Introduction Informed arguments against the death penalty are more persuasive than arguments in favor of it, as the negative affects of the death penalty have become widely publicized and illustrate the ineffectiveness of this cruel punishment. The death penalty is an inefficient form of punishment as innocent offenders may be executed, superior forms of restitution are available, and it fails to deter crime, all of which contribute to informed arguments against it.
