I argue that substance dualism is true. Substance dualism claims that people and bodies are distinct. People, such as you and I, are nonphysical beings. We are connected human bodies, but we are not bodies. The reason is that (1) If we can exist without bodies, then we cannot be bodies. (2) We can exist without bodies. Therefore (3) we cannot be bodies. (1), (2) and (3) constitute the modal argument for substance dualism. The modal argument has a valid form. An argument has valid form means that…
printing from a flat surface treated to repel the ink except where it is required for printing. (Ephraim U. Art Village Gallery) A lithograph print is a much older process based on utilizing a series of plates and traditional 4 ink colors (cyan, magenta, yellow, and black) to render an image onto paper. Each plate “stamps” the appropriate color onto the surface based upon the right amount of ink essential so when all 4 colors are applied you get a color rich image. (Finerworks…
time warp. "Its just a jump to the left, and then a step to the right", the participants sing as the audience dance along and mouth the words to the bouncy tune.The film goes on as they (Brad and Janet) meet the "unconventional conventionalists", Magenta, Columbia, Riff Raff, and finally the long awaited Frank N. Furter. "I'm just a sweet tranvestite, from transexual, transylvania", Frank N. Furter cries almost seductively as he introduces himself to his naive guests. A night at Frank's is full…
In her essay “The Plastic Pink Flamingo: A Natural History”, Jennifer Price examines the implication s of the pink flamingos’ ascension in American culture. The image of a bold pink flamingo seemed to appear on lawns across the nation seemingly overnight. Price’s consideration of the flamingo’s role in American history and in contemporary times, alongside its flashy colors paints a clear picture of the American mindset. Price initiates her essay by bringing attention to the significance of…
In Not Like You, Kayla Hanes and her mother, Marilyn, move to New Mexico to start all over again. Marilyn promises to quit drinking and get a job. But Kayla does not believe that the mother will actually stop drinking because this has happened many times before, making it hard for Kayla to trust her again. To make it worse for them, Marilyn starts to depend on her daughter, who has a job, to pay the rent. Kayla started a dog walking and training service. During one of her sessions she comes…
Communication /6 Problem #2 Use the chart you just created to answer the following questions. a) Which substance would be the most corrosive? /1 Sample number 2 is the most basic and corrosive substance between the four samples. With its very high pH of 12, it can be predicted that sample number 2 is the oven cleaner that contains Sodium Hydroxide. Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH) is highly corrosive due to its elements; the presence of oxygen and an electrolyte (Sodium – Na) cause corrosion, the…
Soil houses a vast array of life including many different types of microbes. These microbes help contribute to the ecosystems in and around the soil. For the purpose of the study of this paper the ecosystem that the sample was collected from was the forest floor. The types of microbes that grow in specific soil samples depend on many things such as pH, salinity, temperature and the variant levels of different nutrients. Moisture levels of soil and energy sources are also large factors in…
measurement of how acidic or alkaline a solution is. A substance with a ph than 7 is a acid, and a substance with ph greater than 7 is a base. The red cabbage will change colors as the acid neutralizes the base. Our cabbage water was initially a magenta, because cabbage water is inherently slightly acidic. After the cabbage water was poured into the ammonia-water mixture the solution rapidly changed to a bottle green. With a red cabbage indicator the stronger the alkali the color the color, and…
Which metals produce similar flame colors (according to your naked eye)? NaCl and NaNo3 both turned the color orange. 2. What metal ions are in the unknown solutions A and B from the barrels on the vacant lot? Clearly, and in detail, explain your reasoning. The metal ions BsCl and LiCl are in the unknown solutions A and B from the barrels on the vacant lot. 3. A student performed flame tests on several unknown substances and observed that all of the flame colors were shades of red.…
Where are they at?” I exclaim wildly. I was looking everywhere with my family. We were already late to the game and we didn’t need this slowing us down more. We looked under the seat, in all of the bags, in the trunk and we just couldn’t find it. “I really need need them if I want to play soccer!” I yell. “Well you must’ve left them at home,” my Mom says. “There’s no way I left them at home,” I panickedly say. “They definitely aren’t in the car so they have to be at home somewhere,” my Dad says.…
