Essays on Proof

One of the fundamental methods of determining liability in Tort Law is the “but-for” test. According to the test, liability is analyzed by asking the question: but-for the defendant’s negligence, would the plaintiff have been injured or harmed? If the answer is no, then the defendant, and only the defendant, is liable for the plaintiff’s harm. While the “but-for” is a Tort Law fundamental, it sometimes proves inadequate in determining a defendant’s liability. Consequently, Tort Law has developed other means of determining the cause of a plaintiff’s injury in fact. One of the alternatives to ...

The article focuses on the new archaeological findings which show that life in America could have started earlier than the time it is said to have started. The evidence of the charcoal collected from the two fire pits near the bottom layer of the soil and top rock, confirms the thought. It is however difficult to convince most of the people especially those that have been in the field of archaeology that it is true.

On September 12, 1560, the “Parlement of Toulouse” sentenced one Arnaud du Tilh to hang and four days later, the same body of power forced me to witness his execution (Davis 91-93). For all I know, du Tilh might have been the only man who has ever cared for my person. Now he is gone. The penning of this entry comes at a time when the people of Artigat look at me with contempt and most of my family, especially my husband Martin Guerre, appear disgusted with because of the whole Arnaud du Tilh affair. See, in 1548, Martin “ ...

There was a time when nurses were not included in malpractice and negligence lawsuits, but that is no longer true. Today, nurses are included with doctors, hospitals, and other healthcare providers and agencies when the outcomes of patient treatments are undesirable. When a nurse is accused of failure to competently perform her or her responsibilities to the patient and employer, the result may be as serious as the death of the patient. For this reason, focus has centered on the types, incidences, and ways to prevent actions that cause patients harm and may result in expensive and license-threatening litigation ...

1. The beginning of mathematics dates back to any civilization ever formed, which developed a form of writing. Use of numbers, shapes and basic mathematical operations could be seen in almost every civilization, in the form of quantification in crafts, trade and work. On studying construction sites, anthropologists could clearly conclude that some amount of mathematical understanding prevailed in the people. Evidences found in the rectangular bases of buildings, in the designs of weaving patterns, basketry; craft etc. all prove that there existed an understanding of mathematics even in early civilizations.

CC could sue National for tortious impedance. Tortious impedance is a purposeful tort that precludes the consider obstruction with authoritative or business connections (The Legal and Ethical Environment of Business, 2014, p. 220). Since National purposefully paid the CC representative to get the arrangements for CC's new item, this would be a substantial claim that CC could use to sue National.

It’s a principle that provides the basic and the essential part in the mathematics of sorting and even counting. This principle was introduced by Johann Peter Gustav Lejeune Dirichlet in 1834. He called it the shelf principle or drawer principle. However, many people appreciate his insight and call it the Dirichlet drawer principle. The name pigeonhole was introduced in 1940 by Raphael Robinson. In the literal sense, pigeonholes refer to shelves or holes used to place pigeons. Thus, the principle roughly states that if one has a given number of boxes and a given number of items to ...

Introduction

The term ‘social robot’ has become popular in the modern world and is almost being integrated into the modern day cultural constructs as usual. Lamers & Verbeek (2010) maintain that social technology is meant to invoke emotional attributes and to engage the human mind in a way that exceeds what is physical. Lamers & Verbeek (2010) argue that a robot is man’s effort at recreating his own self and it is with this semblance that the conceptualization of human-robot interaction has been captured. Dating back from the 18th century, inventors and scientists alike have been making numerous attempts at making ...

President Obama enacted the Affordable Care Act as a United States Federal statute in 2010. Together with the amendment to the reconciliation bill, it promised to expand health insurance to all citizens at a reasonable cost. PPACA defines the health care as neither the right nor privilege of people but it states that citizens, however, do have a right to “affordable” healthcare, which it tries to achieve through a partnership between the market and the government. The ACA is a result of an evolution of government-funded plans such as Medicare and Medicaid as well as statutes such as HIPAA, ...

Analysis of GMOs Effects on Human Health

Introduction The study of genetically modified organisms has grown to be a topic of concern in the contemporary world. In particular, there exist regulatory procedures that guide the process of approval of the genetically modified crops and foodstuffs (DeFrancesco 796). The only technique that enables the assessment of such issues is the introduction of the mechanisms like the toxicological tests, for example, in mammals, through the performance of such a process over longer time intervals incorporating detailed blood as well as organ system analysis (Séralini et al. 1). However, it has been challenging to carry out such initiatives ...

Introduction Thesis Statement: The use of DNA in a criminal prosecution has helped advance justice for both victims and suspects by, among other things, eliminating the possibility of wrongful conviction due to inaccurate identification. This way, it has also tremendously helped the law enforcement agencies in the criminal justice system in fighting and solving crime through effective investigation of offenses. However, there are also legal -particularly human rights- and ethical challenges regarding DNA application in criminal prosecution (Naughton & Gabe 245).

The primary objective for the formation of the European Economic Community (ECC) was to create a common market to enhance the achievement of a trading advantage over other Atlantic states. The member states hoped that the move would spur growth by promoting marketing scale and capitalizing on specialization among the member states. However, the ECC faced many technicalities when creating a common market due to lack of strategic decision-making structures and protectionist attitude adopted by members. It was especially difficult to remove barriers and enforce common trade regulation. For a common market to have some effect, freedom of capital, ...

Introduction

Architecture as a discipline has evolved over time, with architects from different periods adopting unique approaches to architecture. In the 1950’s, the architectural world saw the introduction of the theory of the postmodern architecture . This came hot on the heels of the famous modernist approach to architecture, which had the support of various classical scholars and architects. The primary argument in this paper is the fact that the post-modernist approach to architecture was a representation of the effort by architecture to establish a voice of its own. This is built on the realization that architecture is a dynamic ...

In addition, the two civilizations existed in different geographical conditions, implying that the architects in these ...

Findings in the Coloring Exercise

In Synoptic Exercise 1, the color patterns showed that Mark and Luke shared most words. It was surprising that Matthew had most of the unique words, the unique words of Mathews make it appear as the unique source, but since the three gospels are talking about similar accounts, similarities should be more. Synoptic Exercise 1 shows that one Gospel was a source for the other two. The results show that Luke is not sharing much with Matthew. The conventional perception among most religious scholars is that Matthew is the first Gospel, and Mark simplified the account. However, synoptic problem ...

David Hume was a great Scottish philosopher who argued that there is no substance as the self. He believed that there is nothing such a soul. All this, he argued, was an illusion created by people's trust in the cause and effect theory. He attacks this belief in cause and effect by claiming that what people do is induce. Induction is drawing conclusions from previous experiences. He argues what people use to justify their belief in cause and effect theory owing to inadequate or lack of knowledge of the connection between nature and events. Hume argues against the existence ...

Abstract

The criminal justice system in the United States provides Constitutional guarantees for all who are subject to the laws of the land. The three most controversial aspects of this system today are Search and Seizure, arrest, and interrogations. While these three aspects are the foundation of police action throughout the nation, there are several unresolved problems in how each of these processes is in use today. The presence of the law is not always the same as upholding it. The cases which made the case for the citizens are moving into obscurity with modern variations of the problems making ...

Emma Williams’s Case

Arbitration is a formal process for determining a grievance between parties in a conflict. A labor arbitration process involves an employment-related dispute between an employer and employee. The authority of an arbitral award comes from the binding arbitral clause in a contract of employment or the authority given by the parties through the appointment (Walras, 2013). An arbitrator has quasi-judicial powers to investigate, listen to the grievances of the parties and provide a decision, which is binding on all parties involved in dispute. However, arbitration must be launched on time to have a force of law. The dispute in ...

Abstract

Rape in the United States military has historically been viewed as a myth that did not need to be addressed. This way of thinking is the result of the viewpoints of a rape culture. These viewpoints work to legitimize the violence to remove all blame from the attacker, which makes the violence strategic and intentional. It has been noted the main reason intra-military is underreported is, the fact the attacker usually holds a higher level of superiority. This reality results in, the victim needing to report the event with their attacker. It has been reported by the Marine Corps, ...

Increased live birth delivery of women with natal drinking or smoking: A nursing critique

Abstract Prenatal smoking and alcoholic drinking are for its serious health risks during and after live delivery. Amidst the ethical question on this maternal choice, a contention insists that alcohol and tobacco non-use prenatal and at natal has increased. Doubts on its validity were noted. My hypothesis: the observation came too early both in the national English and the global contexts. The contention was hard to sustain. The diverse factors affecting global decision making work against that contention. Both the American and English data failed to support that contention on the strong reality of the incomplete and potentially unsound ...

Importance of Titles in Real Estate Financing

Abstract Acquisition of real estate is not an easy process because it involves outlay of huge amount of financial resources.

Introduction

The English legal system is based on elements of the Christian Bible and its tradition. This comes with some moral concepts like lying about other persons and spreading false information. Defamation is made up of libel and slander. Whereas libel is a false and damaging comment written down, slander refers to such a statement spoken orally. The purpose of this paper is to conduct a critical analysis of the concept of defamation and how it relates to media law.

Basically, every human being has a right to a reputation. Reputation is a kind of personal right that embodies a ...

As a matter of fact and law, it is indeed true that to successfully bring a claim in negligence, the claimant has to prove on a balance of probabilities the existence of a duty of care, breach of that duty by the defendant and a resultant loss, harm or injury to them. This is known as "the three-part test" for negligence. In addition to these essential elements of the tort of negligence, no defenses should be applicable if a claim is to succeed. However, successfully proving the existence of these elements and getting remedies from courts is not a ...

The issue before the court in this case was whether this standard of proof was the proper standard to be used in determining retaliation or was the appropriate standard the “motivating factor” standard. Or more specifically, whether a plaintiff claiming retaliation can win a claim based on discrimination being a “motivating factor” for retaliation or must the plaintiff show that the discrimination was the reason for the retaliation. In addressing this issue, the United States Supreme Court determined that the standard of proof used to allege a claim for retaliation under Title VII must be the but for test ...

Dealing with matters concerning the abuse of children has been one of the more complex issues that both police and policy makers have had to face in recent years. The reason for this is that by law it is quite difficult to prove that there is sufficient abuse to justify infringing on a parent’s rights and separate them from their own child. That being said, separating a child from an abuse parent in many instances is the right course of action; however, it becomes a complicated legal battle to justify taking the child and also find a way ...

Rene Descartes (1596-1650) is one of the great thinkers who stood at the origins of modern European science. He studied at the Jesuit college of La Fleche. After military service he moved to the Netherlands, where he spent 20 years in solitary scientific and philosophical studies. The persecution of Dutch theologians forced him to move to Sweden (1649), where he died. . . . (Descares, Cottingham, Stoothoff & Murdoch 1). In his works there are organically combined interest in the ontological problem, the development and justification of the method of knowledge, in-depth research and discoveries in the field of mathematics, physics, cosmogony, and ...

Management refers to the process of coordinating the resources and people within an enterprise to achieve its goals. Contingency planning for the power outage is one of the integral components of the management in many organizations. Fundamentally, the unplanned events of power outages can have devastating consequences on both small and big companies (Cummins Northwest). In most occasions, the incidences of power outages often occur during the summer months, as considerably high demand is subjected on the electrical grid. In particular, the development of efficient and appropriate contingency plan for the complete electrical outage for the college in the ...

Knowing the characteristics of the external world has long been one of humankind’s greatest problems. Nevertheless, they have always encountered the problem of being able to secure that the knowledge they find there is actually true. Descartes was the most famous philosopher to first approach this problem skeptically. Nevertheless, many after him have found that this is not necessarily true, with G. E. Moore and Immanuel Kant giving compelling arguments for the existence of the outside world. Therefore, through analysis of that which does not belong to the self, one can gain knowledge of the characteristics of the ...

Even though one is bombarded every day with experiences that seem to be from the outside world, it is important to reflect on their validity and source before coming to a premature conclusion using only intuition. There is a general consensus that there is an outside world, which is what people feel and navigate through every day, and which has certain characteristics. Nevertheless, if one stops to critically examine the evidence that there is for this conclusion, one can see that many other interpretations are also possible. Most philosophers do not negate the different experiences and the possibility of ...

Art can be, and is, often seen and understood in many contexts. In museums, visual arts are generally pleasing, and looked forward to with great anticipation. Musical art, in concert halls, is seen the same way. There is performance art, like that of the choreographer Anze Skrube, that is in high demand. Graffiti is another kind of visual/performance art, most of it connected with gangs, but not always, when considering the work of Banksy and other artists who try to do something positive with their talent. Art can be defined in two ways, according to Adajian. One of its ...

Dr. Robert B. Cialdini proposed six principles of influence to apply consumer behavior. The principles actually depict the science behind consumer behavior and change management. Here are some ways in which the principles of Reciprocity and Social Proof apply to consumer behavior.

Reciprocity: Give something to get something in return

Reciprocity is Cialdini’s first principle of influence and states that there is an innate tendency of humans to return favors or treat others the way we have been treated by them. We feel obliged on paying back our debts in some way or the other. For instance, a practical internet blog provides its readers useful information ...
