<span>Their hunting ground for new terms is in their native tongue as well as foreign. They adopt traditional devices of similitude, making attributes work for the whole. They use hidden resemblances, they know no limitations and have no boundaries. They have substituted far-fetched figures for a hundred literary descriptions, using abbreviations most freely, compositions, formations of words to resemble the sound and picturesque synonyms. Their transfer of proper names into common usage has been so much “duck-soup” (that which is done with ease)…They have enriched the national vocabulary with many new verbs and verb phrases. It must not be forgotten that our fighting men have come from all walks of life, that all sections and divisions of a free social order are represented and each man has brought the peculiar and colorful language of his section of the country with him. Ours is a fighting force of a hundred races and as many creeds speaking a language called American.”</span>

According to this ruling, the government can regulate speech if the words that were spoken (or printed) represent a "clear and present danger" to American society.

This ruling came as a consequence of the case <em>Schenck v. United States (1919)</em>, in which the general secretary of the U.S. Socialist Party opposed the implementation of the military draft. He distributed pamphlets encouraging people to oppose the draft. The unanimous decision was that his words represented a clear and present danger to the country, and therefore his arrest was justified.

Think about how Durham and Company treated
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

I said that Durham and Company said they were not responsible for Jurgis’s injury.

I wrote that the company expected Jurgis to heal for months without working or getting paid.

About five thousand years ago, the rains over the Sahara began to decline and grasslands gave way to desert. The population of t
lisabon 2012 [21]
Over the course of 5000 years, the amount of rain falling over the Sahara drastically decreased. As most of the Sahara is towards the North and mostly inland, it means that less water falls there. The Sahara is huge, covering ~9,000,000 square kilometers. It is called Sahara, because that is translated into desert. The Sahara is mainly stone plateaus, sand seas, and mostly sand dunes. Wind and little rain shapes most of the desert features. Because of this, the area has little suitable places to farm, has little vegetation, and the little vegetation it has consists of shrubs and little grasslands. The place is extremely hot during the days, and has a dramatic contrast during the night. Because of all this, many people that saw that the desert is a harsh area to live in, try to move closer to plains and forests that are still inside Africa. This led to a spread of people from Northern Africa to other parts of the land.
