Do you think that there should be more high pitched intruments in an orchetra or more low pitched

Orchestra- "orchestra" was used to describe the place where musicians and dancers performed in ancient Greece. The orchestra, or symphony orchestra, is generally defined as an ensemble mainly composing of bowed stringed instruments, percussion, wind and brass instruments. As you can see apart of the definition of orchestra is an ensemble which is multiple instruments, not just one section. In one of my opponents example there was only one section of string instruments which was the cello, where as the cello is an low pitched instrument and there was no example of a high pitched instrument in that example. In your other example of the full orchestra, the soloist was a high pitched player and so you kind of made my job easier because you gave an example of a high pitched instrument playing the " melody " ( solo )
Do you think that there should be more high pitched intruments in an orchetra or more low pitched

I believe that there should be more high pitched instruments because the high pitched instruments get the melody in most of the music pieces. Google states that there are an even amount of players on both sides, but I believe that if there are more low pitched players than the high pitched players and the high pitched players have the melody than the low pitched players will out play the melody and the audience will not be able to enjoy the melody in the music.

Corruption isn't the root cause of all evils. Evil doesn't even have a root cause, for every decision to turn around is because of different things. Poor people are poor because usually they don't make the right decisions which lead to their current position; if someone knew what they were doing and they were affected by corruption, then they won't be poor as long as they make good decisions to recover. Rich people are successful with money because they know what to do with money. In my opinion, I believe corruption only affects those who don't know how to get past it; but corruption definitely ain't the root cause of all evil.
Stabbing Someone Thirty-Seven Times in the Chest Will Probably Kill Them

This is a troll topic, but we will be debating it seriously.http://www.youtube.com... RESOLVED: Stabbing someone thirty-seven times in the chest will probably kill them.DefinitionsStab [stab] v. to pierce or wound with or as if with a pointed weapon.Chest [chest] n. anatomy, the trunk of the body from the neck to the abdomen.Probably [PROB-uh-blee] adv. in all likelihood; very likelyRandom House Dictionary 2013Naturally, wounding someone with a pointed weapon thirty-seven times in the trunk of the body from the neck to the abdomen will in all likelihood kill them.Contention One: What is Causing the Stabbing?I am quite sure that my opponent would like to say that if one would stab someone with a paper clip thirty-seven times in the chest, they probably wouldn't die. However, according to FBI criminal database, 95 percent of stabbing assaults / homicides are committed with a knife or razor, typically long enough to penetrate into the vital organs if aimed for the chest.So now the question is: how likely is it to penetrate into a vital organ if stabbed thirty-seven times in the chest? That brings me to my next contention.Contention Two: Anatomy of the Chest Take a look at the diagram above. As you can see, one stab to any point on the chest could easily puncture the heart or a lung. The collapse of a lung or the heart could cause immediate death.And that's just the likelihood of one stab. If one were to stab someone in the chest thirty-seven times, there is no doubt that he would puncture a lung, the heart, or both lungs and the heart, undeniably causing death.ConclusionIt would take seventeen God-given miracles to avoid death after being stabbed thirty-seven times in the chest. Therefore, stabbing someone thirty-seven times in the chest will probably kill them.
Ted Williams is the second best hitter ever

I argue against your claim that Ted Williams is the second best hitter in baseball. I believe that Ty Cobb should be considered the second best hitter, if the not that first. I will start of this debate, instead of giving it over to you. I will start out my debate by stating my reference site, which is baseball-reference.com. This site is very popular for baseball stats and leader boards. The first stat I looked at was hits. First, Ty Cobb was second on that list, Pete Rose was on top. I then looked up Ted Williams. He was ranked 73 on the list. The second stat I looked at was batting average, which his arguably the best stat to look at for ranking players for hitting. Ty Cobb topped that list, with Ted Williams tied for seventh. Ted Williams is now 0-2 against Cobb. Next I looked at putouts, because you stated you wanted defense involved too. Putouts is the best stat to look at for defensive players. Ty Cobb was ranked at a measly 273, but Ted Williams was not even on the list. Now, both Ty Cobb and Ted Williams played in the outfield, Williams in left and Cobb featuring center an right. You cannot be the second best position player, which counts on defense and offense without playing good defense. If you do not get out a lot of players then you don't play good defense. If you argue that a lot of balls may not have been hit towards him then you shouldn't be arguing he was good at defense. Also, if Ted Williams was the second best hitter, then how did you rank him. The two best stats to look at are batting average and hits, and Ty Cobb beat out Ted Williams on both, he also beat out Babe Ruth. Looking at this information, you can obviously see that Ty Cobb is better than Ted Williams, offensively and defensively. You cannot say someone is the second best hitter because of popularity or personal feelings, you have to actually use stats to prove your case.
Ted Williams is the second best hitter ever

Ted Williams. The Splendid Splinter. The Thumper. The Kid. "Teddy Ballgame". Williams had a famous quote. "All I ever wanted in life was to walk down the street and for people to say, 'there is the greatest hitter who ever lived'". With the exception of Babe Ruth, I believe that Ted Williams was the greatest baseball batter in Major League Baseball History. He is generally recognized as an extraordinary batter, but a player who played indifferent defense and didn't do the little things. Therefore, Williams is not generally considered to be in the top 5 all time player list. My debate is simple. I say that Williams is the second best hitter ever after Babe Ruth. Several guidelines: 1) Ruth is number one. Babe Ruth is number one. I'm arguing Williams is number 2. 2) No pitchers This might be controversial, but I feel that it is too difficult to compare batters to pitchers. 3) Defense counts Include defense. I don't want this debate to be just about hitting. So despite what the title of the topic might suggest, I'm basically arguing that Williams is the second best POSITION PLAYER. 4) Just MLB batters It is very hard to compare players of different leagues. No players from Federal League, Negro Leagues and Japanese Baseball. 5) Infinite players My opponent can use as many players as she/he want to. My opponent can start or pass it to me, I don't mind either way.
Ted Williams is the second best hitter ever

I wonder if I scared my opponent off or if he got bored and does not want to debate me. However, I will give him the benefit of the doubt and decide that he is just too busy. Anyway, back to the debate. In the last round, I showed how if Williams got the same amount of games/plate appearances/at bats, he would have ended up with far better stats than Cobb. Now I expect people to disagree with me on that because playing for a long time requires skill. There are reasons that few people play 3,000 games. And that is because most people can't. Of course we must look at what makes the player not play 3,000 or so games. In most cases, it is just that the player can't keep up when he reaches his mid 30s. Other players don't play long because of their injuries. So, why couldn't Williams play long? What was his reason? His reason was that he served in the Army for 5 years. 5 Prime seasons. Williams played 2292 games in 19 seasons. He played 2249 games in 17 seasons for an average of 132 games every season. So, for his 5 prime seasons, he should've have played 660 games, instead he only played 43. So, essentially Williams missed out on 617 games. When we use William's career averages, mold it into 617 games and add it to William's career total, we get the most realistic show of William's career stats. Games: 2909 Plate Appearances: 12,422 At bats: 9780 Home Runs: 661 RBIs: 2334 Runs Scored: 2282 Hits: 3364 Batting Average: .344 On base percentage: .482 Slugging Percentage: .634 Of course, this is using William's CAREER Averages. The missing seasons are PRIME seasons, therefore William's stats should be higher. We should only use William's years of 1941 to 1949. If we use those averages, Williams lost 697 games due to war. These are his stats: Games: 2989 Plate Appearances: 12924 At bats: 10136 Home runs: 686 RBIs: 2449 Runs: 2437 Hits: 3522 Batting Average: .347 On base percentage: .495 Slugging percentage: .641 Sources: 1) http://www.baseball-reference.com... 2) A calculator and some logic
Ted Williams is the second best hitter ever

I had a big counter argument ready for what I thought my opponent was going to say, so his forfeit kind of leaves me in an awkward position. But whatever. Cumulative Stats: Cobb has a large advantage in this category, mostly because he played in far more games. "Cumulative Stats" means quantitative numbers. These include hits, home runs, Rbis and Runs. Cobb has a huge advantage in hits, runs scored, but Williams has far more home runs. Cobb also has more Rbis, but there isn't a huge difference. Here are their stats: Stat, Cobb, Williams, Hits, 4189, 2654 Home Runs, 117, 521 RBI, 1938, 1839 Runs, 2246, 1798 But most of the disparity can be attributed to the large amount of games Cobb played. Cobb played in 3034 games, 13082 plate appearances and 11434 at bats. Meanwhile, Williams played in only 2292 games, had only 9788 plate appearances and batted just 7706 times. If we adjusted William's stat for 3034 games, we would get: -3513 hits -690 home runs -2434 RBIs -2380 Runs For 13082 plate appearances, instead of 9788: -3547 hits -696 home runs -2458 RBIs -2403 Runs For 11434 at bats: -3938 hits -773 home runs -2729 RBIs -2668 Runs So, as you can see, if Williams had been presented with the same opportunities as Cobb, he would've had monster stats. Those stats are far superior to Cobb's.
Ted Williams is the second best hitter ever

My opponent states that Cobb beats out Williams in hits and batting average. While this is certainly true, I feel that my opponent places too much importance on these two stats. My opponent says that "The second stat I looked at was batting average, which his arguably the best stat to look at for ranking players for hitting. " Among the three main averages which includes On base percentage and slugging average, Batting average is easily the least important. Why? Simple. Batting average treats a single as the same as a double, a triple and a home run. It actually does not take into account walks or the ability to get on base, which makes it misleading. So while Cobb has a better batting average, Williams has better OBP and SLG. Stat, Cobb, Williams Batting Average, .366, .344 On Base Percentage, .433, .482 Slugging Percentage. .512, .634 Evens it up, don't you think? In fact, it more than evens it up, it gives Williams a HUGE advantage. Leaving Babe Ruth out of this, Williams is the career leader in both OBP and SLG. His marks in both categories is far superior to Cobb's. Even though it is true Cobb has far more hits, Williams has far more valuable hits, as indicated by his career .634 slugging average. DEFENSE: William's career range factor is 2.00 per game. Cobb's career range factor is 2.30 plays per game. "Range Factor" is the amount of plays a player makes. While there is a some what large difference, Williams makes up for it with his .974 career fielding percentage. Cobb's career fielding percentage is just at .961. Their defense is quite similar, with no large advntage going to either player. William's defense was just as good as Cobb's. My opponent listed their career putouts without the average. This is a large mistake because Cobb played in 3034 games, far more than William's 2292. Williams was a better batter and a better player.

Mao Zedong proves communism is politically superior to capitalism

I will address Pro's Round 2 argument and save his Round 3 argument for my Round 4. "Wealthy landlords were stripped down to a realistic amount of land." No, they were murdered. While some were tried, those who were tyrannical (1 million) were killed instead of incarcerated, as they should have. Literacy rates and mortgages lowering are indeed good for Communist China, but again, this is nothing that a capitalist country could not do (and probably do it better without massive starvation. Economic self-sufficiency is expected of all nations, so the fact that Communist China does it (with the help of Soviets) is nothing special. The Three Main Rules of Discipline and Eight Points of Attention: Again, this is already expected from an army, such as the United States, French or British Army. To do something that is expected does not make communism superior, it simply makes it OK. To conclude this argument, I just want to state that Communism in China has done nothing special. Growth is expected. While I admit that the industrial output was very good, they had to sacrifice rights of the workers and there starvation. My point is that you can really never overlook how many people died under Mao Zedong's rule and say "That's a good government." The famine would never happen in a modern capitalist country. "All these factors showed how much Mao improved the lives of Chinese citizens after his ascension to power in 1949." Someone's life does not improve when he or she die of starvation. The Great Chinese famine is inexcusable, and no matter how many positives Communist China has achieved, they will never surmount this. I will address the rest of your rebuttal later.
Mao Zedong proves communism is politically superior to capitalism

To begin my arguments, I want to say that of course the People's Republic of China will have some successes. However, I believe that the failures have surpassed the successes. If China operated underneath a capitalist system, I believe it's prosperity could've been much more quick and with less death. One of the differences between socialism and communism is that communism is largely brought about by the proletariat class attacking and overthrowing the bourgeoisie class, usually with violence. PROC is no different, as approximately 1-2 million landlords were killed by Chinese peasants (who were inspired by the CCP). You could possibly make this an argument for the greater good, but mass murder never is the best option. Under capitalism, their deaths might have been avoided and they could've just been legislated against. We will never know. However, we do know that the PROC made a terrible choice in killing the land owners that could only match, not best, capitalist methods. As I mentioned before, the Great Leap Forward from 1958-2963 was a massive failure, resulting in the Great Chinese Famine and the deaths of millions. Farmers were denied the free market and were instead forced by the government to work 14 hour workdays and jobs they didn't prefer to do. It's estimated that around 55 million people have died from this leap "forward". Also, it's worthy to note that while the farmers resorted to cannibalism, the communist leadership still had plenty of food to eat. Just look at Mao. Other atrocities of China include the Tiananmen Square massacre of hundred of protestors. On the point of economics, I will restate that PROC only started to grow to its massive size once Deng Xiaoping became leader. He introduced economic reform and allowed the free market, once again. Here is another graph that might demonstrate this point more clearly, showing just how effective the capitalist reform in 1978 was for the economy. http://www.yaleeconomicreview.org... http://www.cnn.com... http://www.theepochtimes.com... http://www.visiontimes.com... https://www.theguardian.com...
Mao Zedong proves communism is politically superior to capitalism

Chairman Mao's Great Leap Forward was a massive failure, and even Mao admitted to this: "The chaos caused was on a grand scale, and I take responsibility. Comrades, you must all analyze your own responsibility. " 30-40 million people died from starvation, about 50 million were forced to live in labor camps. The only reason China is prospering is because of 1978 economic reforms that are much more leaning to capitalism then communism. Check out this graph, and notice how the GDP starts to rise once farms are private property and the free market. . http://theparkmanpost.org... . http://www.heritage.org... . http://www.businessinsider.com... . http://www.historylearningsite.co.uk...
Mao Zedong proves communism is politically superior to capitalism

The establishment of the People's Republic of China is heralded to be the very moment communism was established in China, as well as when China burst forth into the 20th century. Long been subject to corrupt dynasties and a short reign of tyranny under the Guomindang, the CCP liberated the people through several policies it implemented, especially those by Chairman Mao. In this debate, I will use evidence of the CCP and Mao, throughout its history from its inception in 1921 to Mao's death in 1976 that demonstrates Communism's superiority in its social, political and economic standpoints. Con will use evidence to prove that communism failed in China. Historian views will need to be utilised in proving both contentions.
