Certainty

What is it that makes every person differ from one another? Is it their upbringing and experiences or is the person they are going to become predetermined? To me the words belief, certainty, knowledge, and doubt are the four essential intertwining categories in everyone’s life that differ enough to make each individual different from one another. These categories are all important by themselves but it is the connection between each of them that is so incredibly important. As I explored through…

trust and (2) whether the certainty of interest in the property justified its existence. This was the first case to apply the principles laid down in Cobbe v Yeoman’s Row Management Ltd, distinguishing interest pursuant to formal written agreements from interest in property. In addition, Mr. Justice Morgan in Herbert (para 91) touched on the topic of certainty in constructive trust and in contract. This case should be highlighted due to its detailed analysis of certainty of interest and that it…

epistemological projects, it is evident that the two possesses distinctive pictures of the nature of knowledge. In opposition with one another, Descartes epistemological project culminated in his firmly held belief that he has succeeded in grasping certainty in human knowledge; while Sor Juana, despite multiple efforts to attain absolute knowledge, has conceded that she cannot do so, as the intelligibility of her own intellect is limited and bounded. In this paper, we shall engage in a critical…

work-related responsibilities will contribute to my growth. I will stop thinking about the past and what could have been, and start focusing on what I am achieving right now and what will come from my present struggles. If I can manage to obtain a sense of certainty and contribution, it would definitely add to the feeling of…

that contracts for the sale of land must have definitive terms including describing the land with reasonable certainty. If the land is not described with reasonable certainty in the written contract, the contact may be deemed valid if the deficiency can be easily corrected. Lyanna Snow entered into a written contract…

implications of the amendment 13A in the Electronic Transactions Act 2002 (ETA). The reason for the amendment was to gain certainty of when acceptance occurs in forming contracts by electronic communication. This affects eTrade for the reason that when acceptance has occurred the business is liable to perform the contract. Analysing the current law, there is a lack of certainty in regards to time of receipt and risk is heavily weighted on the one party. eTrade should therefore recommend an…

Although I have not taken the CO$_{2}$ emissions into account in previous chapters, Section 5.2.2 is the ideal setting with a zero carbon emission. In Section 5.2.2, I assume there is no gas-fired plant present and at least 50\% of the demand is supplied by my system, and the rest is satisfied by imports from the National Grid. This section includes three subsections, a fixed carbon price, a variable carbon price and a hard constraint on carbon emission. CO$_{2}$ is the main greenhouse gas and…

I am caught in a scramble that involves my true identity to nearly be revealed, I would have my poker face on at all times; and I would not be so quick to react to a person I am having conflict with. Plus, according Father Flynn, Sister Aloysius certainty, was based off of her emotion, so he states she is being untruthful. Why submit to such a person? In Father Flynn’s case, it is because he is indeed wrong and guilty. The subjective commentary between Father Flynn and Sister Aloysius is what…

that the grass is green, a skeptic would say, “well, how do you know that grass is actually there? It could be a projection of your imagination. How can I be certain that how you see green is the same way I see green?” The skeptic’s insistence upon certainty in knowledge is challenged for except the knowledge that you yourself exists. I cannot question what I know without knowing that I exist. Thus Descartes, “I think therefore I am.” This worldview is incredibly fascinating to me, because the…
