Premise

laws and regulations that all employers are expected to comply with, when it comes to working conditions. These laws and regulations are publicly available and it is up to individual employers to find out the regulations that are applicable to their premises and implement them accordingly. OSHA also provides training to employers and employees on how to create and maintain safe working environments. Usually, some employers are recruited into OSHA training programs and acquire knowledge on how to…

clear point as to what the argument is based on. The importance of a valid argument form is to have structure of the ideas. Having the right form of an argument supports the list of reasoning, which takes us back to deduction and the truth of the premises and conclusion. Philosophical questioning differs from other kinds of questions because it is a reflection on the beliefs and values in our lives and in the world. Philosophical questions are open to evaluate; questions implies a statement and…

Political History of the Fire Coast, with strong imagery: “consuming hundreds of homes in an inexorable march across the mountains to the sea” (par 1). Davis then constructs a premise that wildfires will continue to cause immense damage as long as private residential homes continue to exist in the Santa Monicas. He rebuts this premise by offering numerous historical examples such as the wildfire in 1835 in Jose Tapia's Rancho Topanga Malibu Sequit and the 1903 fire that started in Calabasas and…

From my understanding of the reading of chapter 3 “Why Standard Mappings and Theorizing Don’t Work, Pinn’s main premise is the correlation between African American history and African American religion. According to the text, Joseph Washington claimed that “In the beginning was the black church and the black church was in the black community, and the black church was in the black community”. (42) That statement alone insinuates that without the African American history, there is no African…

architecture and application design alternatives when selecting the legacy data conversion application. There were two architecture options analyzed and three application design alternatives analyzed. The two architecture options were on premise hosted and on demand hosted. On premise means the application would be physically hosted within the MHCS network on internal servers. On demand means that the application would be externally hosted, such as Software as a Service (SaaS) solution is. The…

In “Fallacies of Logic” Irving Shapiro describes the different ways a person, intentionally or unintentionally, can attack their opponent. Fallacies, when used, could be effective tools to confuse and distract opponents. The use of logical fallacies, also known as con, date back to Athens when a school taught students to win arguments using fallacies. The following are the most common fallacies used. Fallacies are easy to agree with and are simple statements with little or irrelevant information…

Karl Marx believed that in time a communist society was possible and that the proletariat could overthrow the bourgeoisie. In the bourgeois society each person is confined to a productive roll but in a communist society the general production is regulated thus meaning people would no longer be confined to just one productive roll they would have options. Marx believed that if proletariat achieved political power and put an end to the bourgeois modes of production that this would weaken class…

No Risk, No Reward “The Conversion of the Jews” by Philip Roth, exposes the inability of some people to accept opinions that counter or contradict their own. In this story, Rav Binder is concerned by the question Ozzie asks about Jesus because Binder feels that answering the question might validate Christianity in the eyes of his students. He chooses to not directly answer the question to avoid facing the problem set before him. By doing so, he loses any respect Ozzie may have still had for him…

(1943) and Korematsu v. United States (1944) are two landmark cases in the history of the United States that addressed the issue of internment of Japanese American during the Second World War. These cases were brought to the U.S. Supreme Court on the premise that the American government violated the Fifth Amendment rights of the defendants due to their ancestry. The main concern that contributed to these lawsuits was whether strong war powers needed by the government to defeat a formidable enemy…

In addition to this, this argument uses two heuristics: argument from correlation to cause and argument from correlation to prediction. In both of these types of heuristics, the premises must be arguments about a correlation in the population. This condition is satisfied regardless of the potential skew in data, because there is still a positive correlation between fat intake and pancreatic cancer. In the BBC Report summarizing the…
