... Today Spencer's idea is known as Social Darwinism. Social Darwinism was built on the principle that success would come to the most intelligent, ambitious, and productive people, who quite properly advanced their interests at the expense of the less able. Spencer endorsed this idea because he believed that this process would gradually improve society. For his opinion, Spencer was widely applauded by early industrialists who wanted to keep their big businesses free of government regulation.

... years and one year respectively. It was a unanimous decision based on the law and facts to be convicted of attempted criminal trespass in the second degree and dismissing that count of the indictment.

This was because there was no evidence of an attemp ...

... who have discovered the provocative remains of a great lost theatre. Deciding what can be learned from ancient vases is a difficult problem for experts and novices alike. Questions pertaining to theatre further complicate matters with the added condition that the vase must be depicting a scene that is theatrical in nature. Green asserts that the ancient artists "were not at work to provide visual aids for textbooks and lectures. We can, with care, use them in that way as aids to a modern imagination" (Green 1995, p.13). Green's statement brings to light the importance of cautious research into this area of history, especially keeping in mind the co ...

... of cyclamates is bad. The third premise is that if we can prevent the introduction of cyclamates without sacrificing anything of comparable moral significance. The conclusion is that we ought to prevent introduction of cyclamates abroad. With the knowledge they had about cyclamates, Libby, McNeil, and Libby should not have introduced cyclamates into the foreign markets. Cyclamates could be very damaging to one’s health, and that is why the FDA banned their use in America.

... (page 60). Millions of peope died because of the hate in some people. Hate can be shown in many other forms too. One form is clearly shown in Wilma Elizabeth McDaniel’s short story entitled “Who Said We all had to Talk Alike?“ A woman from the Ozarks named Neffie, applies for a job in California. Neffie is sent back after just one month because she “added an “r” to many words that did not contain that letter.” This incident was devastating to the children she was caring for because they really liked Neffie and the way that she cooked and told stories. This also made Neffie feel like there was something wr ...

The sample was done with 994 offenders’ age 20 and up. 125 of them were female, 701 were male and 189 ignition interlock cases. ...

... the force of the state is directed against the exploiters and used to destroy every trace of exploitation: this stage is the dictatorship of the proletariat." In a society such as ours, in which the rich are too few and the poor too many, the Marxist-Jacobinist approach has a ringing appeal. With the term proletariat, one simply substitutes the poor. By "expropriating the expropriators," or eradicating the rich, equality is achieved with one bold stroke. The trouble with this formulation, however, is that the dictator- proletariat is itself dictated upon by an all-powerful Party, while even among the poor there is a hierarchy of classes, beginning with the ...

... stored in short term memory has a very limited time span, and there are two main reasons for this. Information can be displaced .ie. old information somehow keeps being dumped whenever more recent information enters. Information can decay .ie. where the memory trace becomes eroded over time by an unknown physiological process, so it’s detail becomes progressively extinct. Often, each factor plays an equal role in memory loss. One way to encode information befre it is erased in short term memory is by a process of organisation. This means the individual groups together or pairs off the necessary information given in order to remember it (store it in sh ...

... stereotypes and robs other females of the chance to form original opinions. Using the ads presented here as examples, the portrayal of women can be broken down into several categories.
