Driven by the belief that space was bequeathed to them, the Native Americans feel justified in defending their land against the growing encroachment of the white man as the American landscape unfolds. Their motive is the premise that a higher authority has granted them the right to the space, and that the Great Spirit has created the landscape exclusively for them. Fueled by the formation of conflict over land, the Great Ottawa Chief, Pontiac, in his speech at Detroit, seeks to persuade the tribes, including the Ottawa, Huron, and Pottawatomi to agree to resistance. Invoking the words of the Delaware prophet, Neolin, Pontiac recounts the vision which he believes justifies resistance. Neolin urges the tribes to sever all relations to the customs
Within the Ted Talk, “For Argument’s Sake,” Daniel H. Cohen does an effective job at proving his claim that arguments are thought of as war-like situations with winner and losers instead of as an opportunity to gain knowledge. For example, Cohen states, “But the war metaphor, the war paradigm or model for thinking about arguments, has, I think, deforming effects on how we argue . . . It magnifies the us-versus them aspect of it” (TedTalk). In this assertion, he does a prominent job at explaining that the common thought of an argument is a battle in which one side wins which proves his point. The speaker continues to support his statement by expressing this idea: “Think about that one -- have you ever entered an argument thinking, ‘Let's see
The show begins with one single newscaster John Ladarola, introducing the headline news event. He introduced the headline as bad news for Obamacare as Aetna insurance giant would be pulling out of many insurance exchanges that help fund and run Obamacare. He then moved on to question, by stating “but why exactly are they pulling out”. John Ladarola then ran through some financial numbers that Aetna claims is showing they are losing over 100 million a year. With this, Aetna is claiming that it is not financially feasible to continue operating in the same manner.
Metelanski 2 lied about the scores and then he apologized but in reality he meant to do it because as he stated it “It was for extra credit”. Robert’s point of view on this research was simply “trolling” the people that he did the reasearch on about their “IQ” testing. Later in the story he also gives the test to his Mom and Dad and little did you know he lied to them about the test scores as well. Once again in my opinion Robert’s research did not bring any ethical value to the point of even doing that research. He tested multiple people basically lying to them about their scores and taking advantage of people in order to get extra credit for his “How to be a cop” class.
All of the alternatives are affective for different reasons. They are all quite unique. All of the alternatives suggested will improve deer populations, for better or worse. Antler restrictions and less tags will naturally raise the deer population since there will be less shooting of deer with less tags and hunters are forced to let the smaller bucks go. Shooting less deer in CWD areas and being more selective on areas where tags are distributive seems to be more affective of the problem.
“Ballistic imaging and microstamping technologies have the potential to reduce gun violence by improving the solve rate of gun-related crimes”(Giffords Law Center). Requiring microstamping and ballistic identification for any and all firearms can help detain and detect the person responsible for any local shootings. Microstamping is a needed adjustment for all firearms. This micro adjustment will enable us to find more evidence that police cannot in crime scenes and help find and track exactly which gun fired the bullet. In a blog posted by Towne Currier he explains the reason for this certain development: “The development of this tool is because of the challenging identification of a firearm due to the multiple sources of randomness present
After the sentencing to death Socrates had about of month in a jail cell to wait for the ship to return from Delos. During this time his followers and friends came to visit him. Plato recounts Socrates' time in prison awaiting execution with his fictionalized story of Crito, in which one friend in particular was Crito. Crito came to Socrates bright and early with the intention to persuade him to escape jail and flea.
Webster states that equal land distribution is more important to freedom, than free speech, trial by jury, or other rights, because “wherever we cast our eyes, we see this truth, that property is the basis of power; and this, being established as a cardinal point, directs us to the means of preserving our freedom.” (111) With this statement, Webster presents the people with the idea, that free speech, trial by jury, and other rights does not present the same significance of power or freedom, that owning property does. Therefore, people should be fighting for laws, which abolish the right to inherit land, rather than the right to speak freely. Once one accumulates enough land, they hold the power to freely express the rights, which are referred

There will never be a time where no one has an argument or something to say. The world never stops spinning because no one lets it. No one’s personality is identical to another, and neither are their thoughts, and George’s quote beautifully illustrates that
With the year-round pressure pertaining to college applications on high school seniors follows the impending decision of choosing an appropriate college major. Generally, the decision-making process involves prioritizing one field of interest over another, however, due to globalization and constant innovation in technology determining a college major has increasingly become the modern day equivalent of the metaphorical line between life and death. Even so, the obvious choice would be the prestigious STEM fields over liberal arts due to the instant job opportunities which are seemingly ludicrous to a recent graduate. Nevertheless, liberal arts education should be encouraged to be pursued at higher education institutions in USA because it helps
When I had first opened Ben Goldacre’s book “Bad Science”, I did not know what was to be expected. Know that I have read and assessed the book I feel as though I have learned something that has given me the confidence to voice my opinion and have evidence to support my arguments on how some products claim to have scientific proof. That being said, fish oils, vitamins, detox, and brain gym are all bullshit creations that should not be sold to the public. Now, I say this only after having read Bad Science, because these techniques are criticized and challenged by Ben Goldacre. I have learned that some detoxification methods are bogus and can be disproven in my very own kitchen, and I don’t have to be an accredited university scientist to be able to prove this.
The rivalry between students who believe they should be able to use their cell phones in class and teachers who believe them to be disrespectful has caused a ripple effect that now bleeds through many classrooms roaring its controversial head. And here we are stuck in an ongoing battle seldom won by students. The position that students should not be able to misuse their cell phones in a classroom setting is one held by the author of “Today 's Lesson: Life in the Classroom Before Cellphones” Louise Katz, who believes that “those halcyon days” were over (Katz). Likewise, Zoya Kahn, the author of “Why Cell Phones Do Not Belong In The Classroom” has a similar stance on the topic, Kahn states that “it is in everyone’s interest for instructors to
In “Commanding the Room in Short Skirts: Cheering as the Embodiment of Ideal Girlhood”, Adams and Bettis argue that a feminist poststructuralist reading of cheerleading states cheerleading as a discursive practice that has changed significantly in the past 150 years to accommodate the shifting and often contradictory meanings of normative femininity. Overall they argue that cheerleading is surrounded by gender. A gendered activity reconstructing feminism and what people typically think about women in sports. With cheerleading transitioning into a female dominant activity, it comes with some negative stereotypes. Cheerleading is also described as an erotic icon.
