Ford’s goals were primarily economic. Gerald Ford wanted to curb inflation because costs for goods were getting out of hand.In addition he vetoed 39 non-military bills just to focus on the economy. Once Gerald Ford had finished working on inflation, he then focused on the recession that was occurring in the economy. He also helped businesses in America by trying to reduce taxes. Gerald Ford’s presidency was very trying and unexpected. For one, he had to battle inflation. Then after he was done…

What if survival meant killing and eating the flesh of one 's own camrade? Given the choice between starvation and cannibalism, how would one make a cogent decision? That is exactly what occurred in Professor Lon L. Fuller 's fictional, legal case titled, "The Case of the Speluncean Explorers." The investigation explores the circumstances involving the death of a cave-explorer, Roger Whitmore. In summary, five cave-explorers were trapped in a cave after being blocked by a landslide.

Why is reconciliation put before First Eucharist for cradle Catholics? In order to answer more appropriate this question is necessary to understand the Sacrament of Reconciliation is also a call of responsibility, providing Catholics at the age of reason the opportunity to be able to examine their conscience and take charge of their life; in this Sacrament we Catholics are taking the responsibility not only for our sins, but also, by examining our conscience we are taking the responsibility to…

I remember vividly how it started as a small revolution under the leadership of Nathaniel Bacon back in 1676; the times were difficult given that we were experiencing tough economic times that included low tobacco prices, the main crop of Virginia, and higher than normal pricing for goods and high taxation (McCulley, 1987). The rebellion was meant to find solutions to the problems that we were facing. Besides, the ineffective leadership, under the Sir William Berkeley, Governor of Virginia,…

I agree completely with both authors that Sarah Palin was not ready for Vice President of the United States. She came off as a babbling, backwoods idiot who didn’t know how to dress or talk. Although, I’m sure she was smarter than either of the authors gave her credit for. She was a conservative and both of the authors wrote for liberal papers. Cal Thomas, in “Sarah Palin: A Collapsed Souffle,” talked about how Palin was all fluff and nothing else. He actually compared her to a souffle that she…

In the short time of 8 months after he arrived in Hobart and later on another offense this time of drunkenness, he was removed in December 1827 aboard the Prince Leopold to the secondary penal settlement at Macquarie Harbour. Details of Costantini’s life of this settlement are unclear. Stilwell supports that he was employed as a dispenser of medicines, and general assistant to the surgeon. Pearn notes that six surgeons served at Macquarie Harbour, a place where the extremely hard condition of…

families are against each other which makes the relationship between them more difficult. Not only is it the relationship between the two families, it is also the relationship between the children and their parents. “But, an you will not wed, I’ll pardon you. Gaze where you will, you shall not house with me. Look to’t, think on’t; I do not jest. Thursday is near; lay hand on heart, advise: an you be mine, I’ll give you my friend: an you be not, hang, beg, starve, die in the streets, for, by my…

commonly used phrase, although it is fundamentally true. As a species we are known for making errors and as a result we attempt to correct them. In the case of the death sentence, error means finality for the accused without a chance for redemption or pardon, should they be found not guilty at a period of time after the trial. Surely there has been enough waste of life, both innocent and guilty, to see that other alternatives to the death sentence such as life without parole would be more…

America has had many problems since the start of the country, with all of these the country has stood strong. The causes and effects of the Whiskey Rebellion was a long lasting effect on America. The thing that caused the whiskey rebellion was, a tax protest that then later became know as the Whiskey Tax. Because of this people started to revolt due to the “tax on whiskey”. The tax on whiskey was basically a fundraiser to get the money back from the revolutionary war. There was many people…

Basilica, when the Pope could have built the building (Dutton 408; Luther 86) without any exploitation of Christians’ fears. With the supposed power to grant freedom of Purgatory or eternal suffering, the people gave money to the Pope and papacy for pardons of being sent to Purgatory in the afterlife (Dutton 408; Luther 84). The Pope used the fear and belief of his own people and followers to show his power and be given offerings, then used the name of St. Peter as a cover to maintain the money…
