Farmer Brown does not like the sounds of Halloween night. He checks the lock on the door. He peeks through the window. There is a dark creature standing beneath the trees. Farmer Brown runs to his

Carnivore: The Power Of FBI Surveillance Abstract: This paper provides an analysis of the privacy issues associated with governmental Internet surveillance, with a focus on the recently disclosed FBI tool known as Carnivore. It concludes that, while some system of surveillance is necessary, more mechanisms to prevent abuse of privacy must exist. Communication surveillance has been a controversial issue in the US since the 1920's, when the Supreme Court deemed unwarranted wiretaps legitimate
Electronic Surveillance: The FBI Carnivore Program Is Big Brother watching our every computer move? Is the government (FBI, specifically) reading and filtering our email and where we go on the web? According to the critics of the FBI’s new CARNIVORE program, the answer is a resounding “yes”.

Present day phones taps require little to no work ethic. When phone wiretapping was first implemented it literally require lots of wires to be attached to the subjects phone.

In "New Development Stirs Old Case", the characters constantly feel dismissed or ignored. In “French Quarter's Black Tapping Feet”, there is a sense of longing for recognition and validation.

rapping at my chamber door. / 'Tis some visitor, ‘I muttered, tapping at my chamber door--” the diction makes the story realistic. The words “gently rapping” and “tapping” make a visual and auditory image of something tapping on the chamber door. The unknown tapping creates a feeling of uneasiness for the narrator. The tapping on the door interrupts the silence which narrator presumes it a guest. The entire house is silent until the rapping tapping on the chamber door. The onomatopoeia achieve the effect

The solar water system won’t cost much only “$3000 to $6000” (“Tapping into the sun”) so it will be affordable. “The technology can cut the average family’s costs to heat water by 20 to 40 percent (as much as 90% in some southwestern regions)”(“Tapping into the sun”).

But what exactly is the raven? Could it be the speakers sorrow, his guilt, or even Lenore herself. I don’t believe any of these theories to be true, instead I theorise that the raven is the speaker's own consciousness
find it okay; however, others find it an invasion of their privacy. I firmly believe that government phone tapping is lawful and should still exist, because it deters crime, most people are not against it, and it hinders terrorism.
