...Introduction The flaw of the law is very common in Bangladesh. In fact there is no flaw of any laws, but the way you use it. Here the proper word can be used as abusing laws. People misuse the law for their own benefit. But the consequence of abusing or misusing law is very dangerous. It is not only a common practice in Bangladesh but also in other developed countries. But the scenario we have here is much more threatening as well as immoral in our society. Actually what we do by misusing law, we do not care about the consequences. If we take a closer look to our society, we will find that there are many areas where the violations of law are very common. Misinterpretation of different sections is also available and which mainly leads to the flaw of law. By doing this the rate of corruption goes up. This law loop hole creates section violations, bribery, custodial death and others. The topic talks about a vast area which simply cannot be discussed easily. There are many problems that we have in our society. Here I have narrowed down the topic and will discuss about Section 54, 167 and 61 of Code of Criminal Procedure 1898. All these sections talks about arrest without warrant and detention rules. In our country, these sections are misinterpreted randomly and as a result it violates sections and makes way for corruptions. Actually political and some muscle man of our society does these unlawful things in the name of law to eliminate their obstacles legally. There...

...prudentially rational in accepting a belief on the basis of arbitrary reasons. This issue is derived from Peter Klein's discussion of possible objections against a view which he advocates called Infinitism. More specifically, this issue is located within the scope of matters concerning Infinitism's Principle of Avoiding Arbitrariness (PAA). Klein briefly acknowledges a possible objection from a line of reasoning by Steven Luper-Foy, who argues that we can be rational in accepting a belief on the basis of arbitrary foundations because these arbitrary foundations serve as the means to attain what Luper-Foy thinks is the goal of cognitive beings: a complete and accurate picture of the world. Klein identifies Luper-Foy's line of reasoning as going against his views. In defending PAA, Klein argues that it is not prudentially rational to accept a belief on the basis of arbitrary reasons since whether or not one accepts on the basis of arbitrary reasons, the likelihood of attaining the complete and accurate picture of the world is the same. I believe that Klein's defense against Luper-Foy's line of reasoning leaves much to be desired. I claim that when positive belief management principles as advocated by Luper-Foy are taken into consideration, the likelihood of attaining the epistemic goal is increased, and thus makes it more likely for an epistemic agent to attain the epistemic goal when one accepts on the basis of arbitrary reasons. Keywords: Infinitism, Foundationalism,...

...may give up as they can’t wait for the required response from the server and thus the server operations are failed due to this. Omission failures: Omission failures are caused across the server due to lack or reply or response from the server across the distributed systems. There are different issues raised due to these omission failures and the key among them are server not listening or a typical buffer overflow errors across the servers of the distributed systems. Byzantine failures: Byzantine failures are also know as arbitrary failures and these failures are caused across the server of the distributed systems. These failures cause the server to behave arbitrary in nature and the server responds in an arbitrary passion at arbitrary times across the distributed systems. Output from the server would be inappropriate and there could be chances of the malicious events and duplicate messages from the server side and the clients get arbitrary and unwanted duplicate updates from the server due to these failures. Above are the important failures identified across the distributed...

...fathers of 20th-century linguistics. Saussure's ideas had a major impact on the development of linguistic theory in the first half of the 20th century. Two currents of thought emerged independently of each other, one in Europe, the other in America. The results of each incorporated the basic notions of Saussurean thought in forming the central tenets of structural linguistics. Saussure posited that linguistic form is arbitrary, and therefore all languages function in a similar fashion. According to Saussure, a language is arbitrary because it is systematic in that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. Also, all languages have their own concepts and sound images (or signifieds and signifiers). Therefore, Saussure argues, languages have a relational conception of their elements: words and their meanings are defined by comparing and contrasting their meanings to one another. For instance, the sound images for and the conception of a book differ from the sound images for and the conception of a table. Languages are also arbitrary...

...LIN 3010 Chapter 1 Homework #2 Name: ___________________ Answer the following questions: 1. Look at the list of “surprising but true” facts about language given in Section 1.1.2 (pp. 3-4). Which items on the list were things you had heard before and which were new to you? Which really were surprising? What about those items surprised you? 2. Look at the list of “common misconceptions” about language given in Section 1.1.3 (p. 4). How many of these beliefs are ones you have held at some point or have heard other people express? For each, how do you think that it came to be widely believed? What sort of evidence do you think linguists might have that causes them to say that each is false? I have heard about every item on the list except for the special verb tense used for gossip. 3. Suppose that you are chaperoning a group of kindergarten students on a trip to the zoo. One of these children walks up to you, pulls on your sleeve, and exclaims, “Look at all the aminals! (note the spelling “aminals” is intended to indicate the child’s pronunciation.) a. Has this child necessarily made a speech performance error? yes b. How do you know? Out of excitement and distraction, he confused the pronunciation of animals. c. If you do not know, how might you find out? d. What sort of additional evidence might you need? e. What would you do to test your hypothesis? 4. Give a prescriptive rule and a descriptive...

...favours some but not all of his creation’. Discuss. A miracle is either a “violation of the laws of nature,” or “divinely caused,” and Christians argued with the latter definition, further suggesting that miracles are revelations. Both approaches leads us to believe that God favors some but not others because miracles are “infrequent,” and seemingly arbitrary, which questions his worthiness of worship. A belief in miracles leads to a partisan creator as it is evident that miracles are not prominent in nature. This is because, in order to be a miracle, they must be infrequent by nature. This is extracted from the etymology of miracles, such as the Latin “miraculum,” meaning an object of wonder. Biblical miracles and miracles in nature appear to be arbitrary. For example, Jeanne Fretel (who had tuberculosis) says that she was healed at Lourdes despite her doctors reporting that there was no possible way she could have healed naturally. However, this seems to be arbitrary as God saved this woman but let thousands of Jews die in the Holocaust. There are also examples in the Bible, like turning water into wine, which seems arbitrary. There are contradictions to his favouritism, however, which suggests that he may not favour people after all. For example, He signed the covenant with the Israelites (which seems to favour Jews) but did not intervene in the Holocaust. Another example is his bias towards Joshua in Joshua 10, who defeated five kings through the help of God, but He did...

...Chapter 1. This is what I heard. At one time the Buddha was staying in the Jeta Grove, near the city of Sravasti. With him there was a community of 1,250 venerable monks and devoted disciples. One day before dawn, the Buddha clothed himself, and along with his disciples took up his alms bowl and entered the city to beg for food door to door, as was his custom. After he had returned and eaten, he put away his bowl and cloak, bathed his feet, and then sat with his legs crossed and body upright upon the seat arranged for him. He began mindfully fixing his attention in front of himself, while many monks approached the Buddha, and showing great reverence, seated themselves around him. Chapter 2. After a time a most venerable monk named Subhuti, who was sitting in the congregation, rose from his seat. He uncovered his right shoulder, placed his right knee on the ground, and as he joined his palms together he respectfully bowed and then addressed the Buddha: "Most Honored One, It is truly majestic how much knowledge and wisdom your monks and disciples have been given through your most inspired teachings! It is remarkable that you look after our welfare so selflessly and so completely." "Most Honored One, I have a question to ask you. If sons and daughters of good families want to develop the highest, most fulfilled and awakened mind, if they wish to attain the Highest Perfect Wisdom, what should they do to help quiet their drifting minds and help subdue...

Broadly speaking failures of a distributed system fall into two obvious categories: hardware and software failure. A distributed system may suffer any of such types of failures. Yet each of the failure has its own particular nature, reasons and corresponding remedial actions to restore smooth operation (Ray, 2009). Follow are few types of failure that may occur for a distributed system. Transaction failure: Transaction failure is a centralized...

...Failures Paper Charles Persinger University of Phoenix POS/355 Jeff Rugg April 28, 2014 Simply put, distributed computing is allowing computers to work together in groups to solve a single problem too large for any one of them to perform on its own. Distributed computing is not a simple matter of just sticking the computers together. For a distributed computation to work effectively, those systems must cooperate, and must do so without lots of manual intervention by people. This is usually done by splitting problems into smaller pieces, each of which can be tackled more simply than the whole problem. The results of doing each piece are then reassembled into the full solution. As handy as a distributed system can be there are a there are four main issues you could face: Operating system failures, Hardware Failures, Omission Failures and Byzantine Failures. Crash failures are caused across the server of a typical distributed system and if these failures are occurred operations of the server are halt for some time. Operating system failures are the best examples for this case and the corresponding fault tolerant systems are developed with respect to these affects. Hardware failures used to be more common, but with all of the recent innovations in hardware design and manufacturing they tend to be fewer and far between with most of these physical failures tending to be network or drive related. With more hardware the probability goes up that there will...

...The Student Bill of Rights School should not be a place where teachers and administrators make students jump through arbitrary hoops, memorizing things that could not possibly matter in real life. How does a student tell the real things to be worked on, the stuff that matters, from the junk, the stuff that is part of the curriculum because no one ever thought about it much, or the stuff that is part of the curriculum to help make teachers' lives simpler? One way to improve matters is to allow students to have some say in their own education. I do not mean by this that students should be part of curriculum committees. Students are not prepared to determine what other kids should know any more than teachers, administrators, book publishers or cultural literacy advocates. But students can determine what interests them, and they should have the right to complain when outmoded teaching methods are in use. For the use of students and teachers everywhere, and by way of summing up the real issues in education, I present the Student's Bill of Rights: 1. Testing : No student should have to take a multiple-choice or fill-in-the-blank test. 2. Real-Life Skills: No student should be have to learn something that fails to relate to a skill that is likely to be required in life after school. 3. Memorization: No student should be required to memorize any information that is likely to be forgotten in six months. 4. Clarity of Goals: No student should be required to take a course, the results...

...depend upon humanity for the source of authority of our judgments. The two sides of the dilemma: First, we might mean that right conduct is right because God commands it (Rachels 51). This means being that God demands good deeds from us because it is right. Basically that there are already Moral standards established in society and god simply demands them to be fulfilled. Second, God commands are not arbitrary; they are the result of his wisdom in knowing what is best (Rachels 52). This means being that the deeds God demands are only good because God commands them. Basically it is the theory that there would be no Moral standards if God did not demand them from us. The consequences of endorsing the first of Socrates option, we will be stuck with the most religious people would find unacceptable (Rachels 52). In other words, we lead ourselves to trouble, for it represents God’s commands as arbitrary. Then the second of Socrates option, we may say that God commands us to do certain things because they are right (Rachels 52). To put it differently, God’s commands are not arbitrary; they are the result of his wisdom in knowing what is best. The way we have been informed about...
