Hasty generalization

The world is standing on the verge of one of the most consequential technological thresholds in history, a scientific discovery that has the power to alter the very fabric of generations of lives to come, challenging what it means to be human. Imagine a world in which one can look through a catalog of possible traits while shopping for a new child; picking hair color, intelligence level, and or athletic ability. However crazy this may seem, “designer baby” is no longer a science-fiction term,…

The passage by Stanley Peele,"Ain't Misbehavin',", is about addiction as becoming socially accepted as a disease. The author of the passage argues that addiction should not be considered a disease because he thinks it to be psychologically connected. The author mentions addictions to be physically habit forming but does not thinks addiction as a disease because in his opinion the disease model of addiction has negative outcomes for the society. The main issue with the passage is that the author…

In “The Threats from Genetically Modified Foods”, Robin Mather effectively brings awareness to the American public of the harmful side effects of genetically modified (GM) foods. She shares that genetically modified foods are foods with an altered genetic make-up. This alteration has lead them to be banned in several countries. However, in the United States, GM foods are not strictly regulated and, therefore, not required to be labeled. Also, the pesticides used in genetically modified foods…

With that said, there becomes an increasing fascination with simplicity, possessing a compelling and harmonious beauty in a frenzied world. In William Shakespeare’s Hamlet, the ingenuity in the portrayal of women exceptionally embodies the notion of simplicity. Gertrude, Queen of Denmark, and Ophelia, daughter of the Lord Chamberlain, maintain exceedingly limited roles within the play, firmly accentuating an extreme absence of depth. In Janet Adelman’s Suffocating Mothers, Adelman proposes that…

There are several legends or just stories regarding monsters that we have known since we were children and they have frightened us since we were young into our early teenage years. But if we really think about it, what might these monsters represent or why do we even have monsters. Authors attempted to look into the world of monsters more and attempt to identify more of what the monsters could symbolize or what they can represent regarding us, humankind. In other words, the authors explain their…

Rose was finally home after a long day of work and opens her front door to see her husband, Henry, stressed out while looking at their bills on the dinner table. “What’s wrong honey?” Rose said. Henry replied “I don’t think-”, but was interrupted by their six year old daughter, Angelica, when she said “You don't think what, Daddy?” Henry nor Rose felt like they should let their daughter be aware of their financial status, so Henry made up a little lie and said “I was just telling your mother…

that because one case happened, then it must happen with all cases. Though Shemtob and Lat refer to a recent case in Georgia (which will be discussed later), it still leaves ambiguity in the use of lethal injection. This argument becomes a hasty generalization due to the fact that no greater evidence on lethal injection contradiction prevalence is presented. If more detailed stories were presented, the argument may have room to be easily challenged. So the…

Attribute selection is the process of identifying and removing as much of the irrelevant and redundant information as possible from a dataset. If the data dimensions are reduced, we will be able to improve the performance of the applied classification algorithms. They will function faster, more efficiently and will be with an improved classification accuracy. As an addition we can also execute data visualization, and increase the insight of the potential classification model [] . There are many…

Unfortunately, some companies have mismanaged their greatest asset—their brands. This is what befell the popular Snapple brand almost as soon as Quaker Oats bought the beverage marketer for $1.7 billion in 1994. Snapple had become a hit through powerful grassroots marketing and distribution through small outlets and convenience stores. Analysts said that because Quaker did not understand the brand’s appeal, it made the mistake of changing the ads and the distribution. Snapple lost so much…
