The benefits of the experiments in our society is that we wouldn't know if something works if we didn't experiment with things. The way life works is we try something if we like it then well use it forever, if it doesn't we wont use it. The drawbacks is if the experiment doesn't work then majority of the time a disaster happens like the Titanic. The ship was supposed to be unsinkable but when the experimented it hit a ice burg and the ship sunk. If we didn't experiment with things then we would be stuck with the same old stuff and nothing new.

First class passengers on the titanic were living in luxury. Some of the richest people in the world were traveling on the titanic for her maiden voyage. This included prominent members of the upper-class that included politicians, businessmen, bankers, professional athletes, industrialists and high-ranking military personnel. Most of those on in first class were traveling with an entourage which might included a nurse for the children, a maid, valet, cook, and chauffer. A first class ticket ranged anywhere from thirty pounds to 870 pounds. In today’s money you could expect to pay an average of $70,000 per first class ticket. The more expensive rooms were a parlor suite and usually had a private promenade deck. Second Class they didn't have it as good as first class but they didn't have it as bad as the lower class. They had 7 decks to scatter around it was barricaded from them going to the first class or lower class.

Middle class passengers didn’t have it as bad as the lower class but didn’t have it as good as the first class. Their rooms actually were almost identical to the first class passengers. They were barricaded from the first and lower class people to make each class more exclusive. They had 7 decks to wonder throughout the whole ship. They had a designated dining area, smoking room, pool, and library. Out of 285 middle class passengers on the ship 118; 14 men, 80 women, and 24 kids survived. A second class ticket was 13 to 79 pounds which is $1800 today. [|ultimatetitanic.com] home.wanadoo.nl peopleus.blogspot.com

 * __Titanic: Third Class __**

No formal entertainment was provided, Recreations such as a gymnasium, swimming pool, Turkish bath and other luxuries were restricted to the first class, and to some extent the second class.

Other than the music supplied by the ships orchestra, which played in the first and second class dining rooms, and gave recitals in their lounges. Third class passengers were left to organize their own entertainment, which often took the form of a singsong or dancing to music provided by themselves.

All of the children on board would have entertained themselves playing cards, shuffleboard and running and skipping on the deck.

In many ways the third class children would have had the most fun on board because they got to go below the ship where the crew was positioned and third class was next to them.

Third class accommodation was much less luxurious than second class. Even so, third class or "steerage" passengers as they were known still enjoyed levels of luxury compared to most of their everyday life or to other ships.

The General Room was the heart of the Steerage (third class). It was the main meeting room. It was paneled in pine and finished in enamel white with teak furniture. The Smoke Room was paneled and furnished in oak with teak furniture and was very comfortable.

The Dining Room, situated on the Middle Deck, was 100 foot long and was as wide as the ship. It could seat about seat 470 passengers in each of the three meals. The pantries and galley were situated behind the Dining Room.

It was clear from outset that the Titanic had given much consideration for the third class passengers, many of whom would be crossing the Atlantic to start new lives. The Titanic wanted them to enjoy the voyage as a good start to their "new life."

There were over 1000 third class passengers on the Titanic. Their accommodation was much more modest than the other two classes. The rooms comprised mainly of two to six person rooms. There were only 84 two-person cabins onboard.

The designers wanted to change the attitudes towards third class travel. The third class cabins weren’t like dormitory rooms, but individual closed cabins, thus adding privacy to the passengers, but they would still have shared their experience with strangers. <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">The cabins were provided with heat and electrical lighting as part of the cost of passage. This seems obvious to us today, but in London, poor apartments still had gas lamps attached to coin-slot meters. The poor had to pay for light as they used it and when the penny's worth of gas had been burnt, the light went out.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Proper beds with spring and chain mattresses were also provided along with blankets and pillows; but no sheets. But many of the cabins did have portholes and washbasins. Conspicuously missing, however, were bathtubs. There was only one tub for all third-class men and another for the women. This was not because they weren’t given any bathtubs. But, because the poor at the time were convinced that frequent bathing brought on lung disease, and so the demand for bathtubs was limited.

Salinger

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">__The Catcher in the Rye__ is a very interesting read, but it is like no other book I have read before. It’s definitely not a book for everyone. I found it very interesting and relatable in many ways, even though the book was written in 1951. It still grabs your attention and keeps your nose in the book. It’s almost like you are living the main character’s life and your with him while he’s telling you the story. <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">It starts off with the main character addressing you personally. He is a 17-year old rebellious free thinker named <span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Holden Caulfield. He then starts a flashback that starts at Pencey Prep School. He talks down on the school and says it’s just like every other school, even though the school has a high reputation. He addresses the school to be a lie and full of phones. He personally hates the place. Now if you’re a teen you instantly can relate to him; what teen would like school? But he wasn’t going to school; he was just kicked out for failing grades and is saying his last good-byes to the school. He stated if he was leaving somewhere, he would like to KNOW he’s leaving a place. So he sat on top of the hill and watched the football game for a few minutes and then went on his way.

<span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">I really like how Holden (Salinger) creates the atmosphere. He is very rash, insolent, and has no idea what he is going to do. It adds effect to the story, because you go on this trip with him. You get attached to him as he brings up the chain of events that has happened to him and expresses how he feels about everything. He does use a lot of profanity in the story, but that’s because the book is aimed for troubled teens, because he gets kicked out of school and it just having a rough time. It s very relatable and I can relate in many ways myself. So the story seems realistic. But if you are a adult, you might find the story to be dumb and might frown upon Holden’s choices. But if you’re under 14 the book is not meant for you, due to the crude humor and the excessive profanity. <span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;">Overall I think the __Catcher in the Rye__ was a very interesting book and I would recommend it. I think it’s a very inspiring book with a great lesson behind it; stay hopeful and true to yourself. The author accomplishes this lesson by making Holden make his own decisions. He makes mistakes and has some miserable times but he gets through it. He also didn’t want to go home to tell his parents he flunked out of another school. So he tries to run away. When he attempts to run away his sister insists on following him. So they were going to start a new life together, but one thing stops him. His sisters smile… he sat there in the rain dumbstruck and watched her smile and laugh. After seeing her smile like that he knew he was home. That’s where the story ends. It is a little different but overall a great read.
