In Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet by Jamie Ford, Henry’s father’s megalomania with China conflicts with Henry’s personal life and connection with Keiko, leading to Henry's isolation. At the beginning of the novel, Henry, who is of Chinese-American descent, attends an all-white school where the white kids consistently taunt him. He is devoid of friends and alone. This loneliness lasts for a great duration of time, scarring him and transforming his overall personality to be emotionless and isolated. Lacking the support of his parents, Henry’s mental health deteriorates, causing him to descend into a deep depression with no one to aid him.

Nowadays, people will claim that the world is on the verge of scientific revolution that leads to the most controversial idea; genetic engineering of humans. When science technology grows exponentially faster than moral understanding, therein lies the argument between these two aspects. One can argue that genetic engineering is some sort of vast achievement in technology especially in this modern era whereby people live in full of access. However, if we look closely at the impact of this technology towards human beings, genetic engineering has many flaws and ramifications that can be debated thoroughly. Arguments and points of view are explained by Michael J. Sandel, the author of “The Case Against Perfection” and Nicholas Agar, the author of “Liberal Eugenics”.

The last 150 years have seen the origin of—and rapid expansion in—human knowledge involving the nature and mechanisms of trait and disease inheritance in human beings. Advances in genetic research hold great promise for the future development of effective prevention and treatment strategies for a great many, often devastating, heritable conditions. However, these advances also raise a series of policy, legal and fundamentally ethical questions concerning what we should and should not do with the knowledge and technology we acquire. These questions are numerous and both imminently practical and speculative, ranging from the exhausted, yet still largely unresolved, question of the moral status of the human embryo to fears about slippery slopes into a Brave New World or Gattaca-style dystopic future characterized by designer children and a genetic underclass.

“The mercy that was quick in us but late/ By your own counsel is suppressed and killed. / You must not dare, for shame, to talk of mercy,” (2.2.85-87). In Shakespeare’s Henry V, King Henry V, uses multiple personas towards certain people to gain the French throne. He justifies his right to the French throne by his descent from French royalty through the female line. Henry is still being seen as his young self and uses role play to prove that he is worthy of the French throne. Henry’s role playing is for the purpose of gaining the French throne. Henry manipulates his soldiers and opponents for his selfish want of the throne. Henry uses different personas while giving speeches and physically disguising himself to gain the French throne.

Along with having a distinct noble status, every tragic hero has a fatal flaw. Brady’s fatal flaw happens to be hubris. When being introduced that Henry Drummond will be on the defense, Brady’s ego already makes him believe that the trial will be an easy victory: “The whole world will be watching our victory over Drummond” (Lawrence and Lee 29). Regardless of Henry Drummond’s experience, Brady takes facing off against Henry Drummond as a positive aspect from a popularity standpoint bragging, “When he fights [Henry Drummond], headlines follow. The whole world will be watching” (Lawrence and Lee 29). Because Brady believes that he will defeat Henry Drummond, he is already thinking about how many people will see the victory against Henry Drummond

After perusing the suggested articles, I decided on this article for my journal review because of the many facets of its colorful history in addition to its fascinating, and vastly growing, advancements in the area of eugenics. The imminent debates resulting from the conflicting moral and ethical implications arising from the inception, development and evolution of eugenics past and present are of interest.

Throughout the play Henry V, Henry V goes from being a fairly reckless, irresponsible person, to becoming a great leader of England. At the very beginning of the play, Henry’s reckless behavior is presented. Henry’s reckless behavior is shown when he goes out to party with his friends and has a good time being with them prior to the news of his father’s death, and says something along the lines of that he loves to party (Act 1 Scene 1). This shows him being reckless and irresponsible as rather than being productive, he is out partying with his friends, and not being a proper prince of England. An example of where another character’s perception of Henry at the beginning of the play is shown is when the Dauphin of France mocks Henry and his leadership.

Henry the Fifth Character Analysis Throughout the play, multiple aspects of King Henry are shown, but the two aspects that seem to stick out the most is when he is being an inspiring towards his men and cleverly manipulative to accomplish his goals. King Henry the fifth is an inspiring, intelligent manipulator. A king who puts the good of his country before his own personal feelings; such as when he found out that Scroop, Grey and Cambridge planned to assassinate him before sailing to France and when Bardolph was being executed for stealing from a church. Everyone who saw him as a pleasure seeking youth has come to realize the brilliant king he has become.

To properly explain why Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis is a poor operation one must know what it is. Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis was meant for when a child is born with a terrible illness, the parents then spend a large sum of money to “create” a child from the father’s sperm and mother's eggs, they then take the traits they want. From doing so they make the child they want to be a almost perfect

In the movie Regarding Henry, A lawyer named Henry is shot and loses his physical functions and his memory. When he comes back he has to adjust to his family life and his work, where his brain is in constant battle between his Id and his Superego.

Dorian Gray: Dorian Gray is the main character--the protagonist, actually. He is a very dynamic character--moving from his young, somewhat innocent mindset, to a corrupt, decadent lifestyle following Lord Henry’s hedonism, to a man trying to expiate his mistakes. Along with this, he is also a very round character. As the protagonist of the novel, he has to be well developed and believable--which he is, revealed through his thought processes and occasionally shady logic. Although it’s hard to condone his behavior sometimes, it is understandable and in-line with his personality, as well as the effects of Lord Henry’s influences (such as his views of youth and beauty being the most important, as well as that of healing the soul via the senses and the senses via the soul).

The film Regarding Henry demonstrates the constant struggle between the Id, Ego, and Superego, Sigmund Freud's concept of the mind, and the struggle for human identity. The story follows Henry Turner as he recovers from a damaging shot to the head, that leaves him to discover his true identity. Henry’s natural state is his controlling Id portion of the brain as he acts impulsively, childlike and seeks pleasure.

To conclude, Henry's relationships were hugely important as Henry was a ‘people person’ that based his whole career around friendships he made. Education in the form of school had no immediate impact on Henry's life, but other forms of education such as learning to cook, and boxing both did. Henry's experiences were of a great significance but there is nothing to say they helped him later on. This research process stretched out over a long time, It almost felt too long, because once I started writing the report I stumbled upon more information, some of it which was false and made me confused. This research taught me to appreciate the simple things more, also that I am lucky to be alive in a time that the world is so
