Unlike interstate wars, making cheating not favorable is difficult; either side cannot withhold…

that the population of visible minority groups in both the 2006 and 2011 (NHS) censuses already surpassed more than triple than that of the ‘not a visible minority’ group. Thus, the ‘Visible Minority Population’ variable is able to back up existing evidence done in a study by Statistics…

cylinders as it acts to draw the reader to debate between if Doctor Cedric Elton is sane in thinking he is on earth, or if Gerald Bocek is correct in claiming that the story takes place on a spaceship. Using tools such as crime accusations and anecdotal evidence from both Cedric and Gerald that they are correct, Phillips attempts to draw two sides out of the reader: space or earth. Although Phillips is successful in achieving ambiguity, Gerald attempts to trick Cedric that they are in space when…

approach to the whole lecture contained many rhetorical questions to engage the audience.
