Under the ADEA, the value of the lifetime retiree health benefits for those under the age of 65 is $48,000. Because CP pays 50 percent of the premiums for her benefits, however, the value of the offset must also be reduced by 50 percent, to $24,000. Offsetting $24,000 from a severance package worth $45,000 leaves CP with a severance payment of $21,000.
Posthuman or post-human is a concept originating in the fields of science fiction, futurology, contemporary art, and philosophy that literally means a person or entity that exists in a state beyond being human.t is the object of posthumanist criticism, which critically questions Renaissance humanism, a branch of humanist philosophy which claims that human nature is a universal state from which the human being emerges; human nature is autonomous, rational, capable of free will, and unified in itself as the apex of existence.
The posthuman depends (at least etymologically) upon the human; however, by calling the human so thoroughly into question, the figure of the posthuman implies that the human is, in fact, the more conceptual creature.Corpses are posthuman in a very literal sense.ll animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.. ~ George Orwell. In this course, we will think about what it is to be human and about how the human is being transformed by rapid advances in technology.
