| ARTICLES RELATED TO human life |  |  |  | human life: Encyclopedia II - Life expectancy - Variations in life expectancy in the world todayThere are great variations in life expectancy worldwide, mostly caused by differences in public health, medicine and nutrition from country to country.
There are also variations between groups within single countries. For example, in the US in the early 20th century there were very large differences in life expectancy between people of different races, which have since lessened. There remain significant differences in life expectancy between men and women in the US and other developed countries, with women outliving men. These differe ...

|  |  |  | human life: Encyclopedia II - Life expectancy - Calculating life expectancyThe starting point for calculating life expectancy is to calculate the crude death rates of people in the population at each age. For example, if one observed a group of people who were alive at their 90th birthday, and 10% of them were dead by their 91st birthday, then the crude death rate at age 90 would be 10%.
These crude death rates can be used to calculate a life table, from which one can calculate the probability of surviving to each age. In actuarial notation ...

|  |  |  | human life: Encyclopedia II - Life expectancy - Evolution and aging rateThe different lifespans of different plants and animals, including humans raises the question of why these lifespans are found.
The evolutionary theory is that organisms that are able by virtue of their defenses or lifestyle to live for long periods whilst avoiding accidents, disease, predation etc. are likely to have genes that code for slow aging- good repair.
This is so because if a change to the organism (for example a bird might evolve stronger wings) may mean that it is exceptionally capable of escaping from predation, th ...

| | |  |  |  | human life: Encyclopedia II - Secular humanism - Modern and historical referencesThe term secularism was created in 1846 by George Jacob Holyoake in order to describe "a form of opinion which concerns itself only with questions, the issues of which can be tested by the experience of this life."
The earliest documented use of the phrase "secular humanism" was in the United States Supreme Court case Torcaso v. Watkins. In the 1961 decision, Justice Hugo Black commented in a footnote, "Among religions in this country which do not teach what would generally be considered a belief in the existence of God are Bud ...

Human rights in Japan - Arbitrary or Unlawful Deprivation of Life.
There were no reports of the arbitrary or unlawful deprivation of life committed by the Government or its agents during the year.
In 2002, an inmate at Nagoya Prison died after guards, as a disciplinary measure, used leather handcuffs and body belts too tightly cinched (see Section 1.c.). In 2001, two Nagoya prison guards reportedly sprayed a high-power water hose at an "unruly" inmate, resulting in his death the following day. In April, on ...

|  |  |  | human life: Encyclopedia II - Human rights in Japan - Major issuesWith some important exceptions, most observers consider informal social pressures a greater factor in limiting individual freedom than the coercive actions of the authorities. The ancient Japanese adage that "the nail that sticks up gets hammered down" captures the sense that Japanese people are pressured more to conform than are people in the more "individualistic" societies of the West. Some Japanese lower- and upper-secondary schools, for example, have adopted extremely strict dress codes, determining not only apparel but also the length ...

The empire is inhabited by an unknown number of sentient, intelligent species, and appears to be governed by a race of bizarre, artificially-evolved Advisors (see below). The Combine expands its empire by invading worlds and enslaving the dominant species to be exploited as it sees fit. By manipulating these inhabitants, through methods including bioengineering and implantation, the Combine creates a race of super-soldi ...
