    After the capture of Patsy Daley and flushed with renewed vigour, Sir Frederick was soon back in the Wheogo area in search of Ben Hall, whom Pottinger once more came into close contact with at Sandy Creek station. It would appear that Ben Hall was either camped near or was staying at his former home and was being supplied with victuals and other comforts by Susan Prior and Ellen MaGuire. Whether Ben Hall understood or even contemplated at this early stage when he was crossing the lawful line to the unlawful line Ben Hall could have handed himself over to the law, no doubt for Ben Hall a custodial sentence would have been imposed, it was possible for Hall that a lenient sentence may have been brought down through Hall's good character references, as has been testified too by his esteemed friends from the district published in the many accounts of his fall from grace.…

    In 1968 a philosopher named H.J. McCloskey wrote an article titled “On Being an Atheist,” which attacked the main arguments held by theists. The main arguments that he refers to as “proofs” are the cosmological argument, the teleological argument, and the ontological argument. McCloskey’s article debunks these arguments as being false and without proof. He states that theists should dismiss the idea of God entirely. He claims in his opening statements that he will show reasons why theists should be miserable just because they are theists (1).…

    Indeed, quiz show provides a feeling of everyone has equal opportunities to win no matter what job, talent, class, gender or race they are through doing same quizzes. As Holmes has argued about Fiske's explanation of games and rituals, games separate out winners from contestants as different, but rituals bringing different individuals in same levels and implying commonality (2008, p.93). In Mastermind, rituals fill in that idea by reducing individual's differences and make them compete at same starting line as equal competitor. For example, the host askes each contestant's name, job and the specialist area they choose to do the quiz before they start to answer, and tells competitors that each of them have equal time to answer the quizzes which…

From Lincoln 's early presidency, Douglass criticized Lincoln before the emancipation proclamation, stating "Whoever live through the next four years will see Mr. Lincoln and his Administration attacked more bitterly for their pro-slavery truckling, than for doing any anti-slavery work. " Instead of compromise, Douglass believed that the Republican Party would have to transform from an anti-slavery party into a fully abolitionist institution. Although Fredrick Douglass believed himself to be separate from the Republicans because of their more moderate views, he…
