Rudyard Kipling has long been considered as an apologist for British Imperialism, largely on the basis of the content and attitudes of much of his poetry and prose, but perhaps best demonstrated by his (in)famous "White Man's Burden." That poem states that white European empires--obviously with England as the leader--have a moral right and obligation to lead others to follow their example. It says that the white man must impose enlightened and civilized values on people and nations that don't even necessarily want them in the first place, simply because it's better for them in the long run.
Of course, with historical hindsight, Kipling's attitude has been condemned as ethnocentric to an extreme, repressive, unjust, intolerant, and--ironically--uncivilized in that it inflicts a form of cultural genocide on weaker, more vulnerable cultures. The fact that English is the official or unofficial language of power around the world is a pretty strong indication that British imperialism was largely successful and that might is, in fact, right.
There are some recent critics who have suggested that Kipling was not entirely serious in his "Rule Britannia"-style attitude and that he was aware of how self-serving and arrogant the whole exercise of colonialism and empire building was, but that doesn't seem to be consistent with his whole canon of writing. The poetry appears to be honestly supportive of Britain's right to extend its influence around the globe; Kim (perhaps his best novel) allows some criticism but in the end is hardly attacking the Union Jack. If he was being satirical, his satire has been a little too subtle to have worked as well as, say, George Orwell's was a generation later.

Ounces, pounds, yard, mile, gallon, etc. are imperial measurements that used to be used in the United Kingdom and still used in a few countries.
40 yard dash/10 yard dash= 4 What ever the time you got for the ten yard, you multiple it by 4. It could be an average of your running time per 10 yard dash. Sometimes for several runners, they would feel worn out by the time when reaching the 40 yard mark.

Rudyard Kipling's "The White Man's Burden" is a poem that expresses the idea that it is the duty and responsibility of white colonizers to educate and civilize people in non-Western cultures. It reflects the mindset of imperialistic attitudes prevalent during the time it was written, portraying the colonization of non-white societies as a noble mission. However, it has also been criticized for promoting the notion of white superiority and justifying oppressive colonial practices.
Rudyard comes from the Old English. Literally translated it means "red yard".In the case of Joseph Rudyard Kipling however his middle (later pen) name was taken from Rudyard Lake, a popular resort near the Staffordshire moorlands, where his parents 1st met.
