This document instructs the reader to choose either Aquinas' efficient cause argument or design argument for God's existence, fully explain the major premise of the chosen argument and provide a complete criticism of the argument by pointing out potential failures and using counter-examples. The reader is asked to critique a particular theological argument rather than argue for or against the existence of God.

Education

Choose either the "Efficient Cause" or the "Design" argument
for the existence of God presented by
'Aquinas'.
Explain the Argument and how it is supposed to prove God's
existence, using examples to demonstrate the
principles/premises when needed. Then criticize the argument
and point out where it might fail as a proof, using counter-
examples.
choose only one argument, not both of them. you should fully
explain the major premise in the argument and then be very
complete in your criticism of it. i am not asking you to argue
for or against God's existence but rather to critique a particular
argument.

Introduction After the Soviet withdrawal from Afghanistan in 1989, Afghanistan become a paradise for the Taliban regime, which was able to extend its influence within the country after coming to power. During this period, the Taliban regime adopted in its authority the fundamentalist version of Islam and enabled the creation of AL-Qaeda camps where training fighters from inside and outside the country was taking place. From Afghanistan, AL-Qaeda had been able to find the safe place for planning an attack on the United State, which was considered to be the first enemy for Bin-laden who was the leader of Al-Qaeda. Bin Laden actually was able to take the opportunity and attacked the United States by the bombing of the twin towers of the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001. In response to 9/11, the US launched Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF) in October 2001 right after the attack. in The goal of that operation was to derive the Taliban from power and to destroy AL-Qaeda infrastructure and operations in Afghanistan. (Sky, 2007, P.7) In the war on Afghanistan, the United State was able to persuade its allies in NATO to participate in military operations. From that standing point, on September 12, the secretary general of NATO, Lord Robertson, announced that the Alliance had invoked Article 5 of the Atlantic Charter for the first time: “An attack on one is an attack on all, Robertson declared” ( Kirkey & Ostroy, 2010, p. 202) In response to that announcement, Canada had decided to support the US military in Operation Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan in October of 2001. At that time, the Canadian forces contained six naval surface platforms, six aircraft, and some 2000 personnel to help America’s goal of breaking down the Taliban. In September 2003, Canada took another step after the announcement of NATO Secretary General Robertson that the Canadian Forces would take command of the ISAF (International Security Assistance Force) in early 2004 in southern Afghanistan. Yost says (2014), quoting the ISAF website, "In support of the government of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan, ISAF conducts operations in Afghanistan to reduce the capability and will of the insurgency, support the growth in capacity and capability of the Afghan National Security Forces(ANSF), and facilitate improvements in governance and socio-economic development in order to provide a secure environment for sustainable stability that is observable to the population." (Yost, 2014, p.135) The course of action of ISAF was expanded in October 2003 beyond the borders of Kabul. In 2004, In the era of the Canadian prime minister Paul Mart, Canada continued its commitment to support military operations in southern Afghanistan, but the numb.

Contagion (2011) Directed by Steven Soderbergh Recent reports concerning the Ebola virus offer a ‘real-time’ example of the themes we have been discussing in class. The virus is a bio-organic entity with the capacity to become a global event. Its effects must be managed and contained in order to sustain normative levels of health. Given its potential for mass fatality, information about the virus is volatile, and thus subject to bias and misinformation. Contagious viruses are a public health concern, and the intervention against such events, the managed response, is an inherently political question, which exposes the raw linkages between power and knowledge. Who is responsible for quarantining and controlling the ‘outbreak?’ What do such ‘outbreaks’ reveal about our shared world and the systems that sustain its homeostasis? How does it bring into question the movement of bodies across boundaries and borders? What kinds of moral judgments and stereotypes circulate around the infected? What role does the media play in such events? In what ways does Science, in its official capacity, consider itself exempt from the media? Questions to consider during the film: How does the film establish the rules of the world it is depicting? Do you believe its portrayal is realistic? How so? What factors lead you to this conclusion? If it is our world, how then is it our world? The director Soderbergh is often praised for his narrative techniques involving perspectives on multiple-characters. How is this so-called ‘hyper-linked’ narration used to portray the story of the ‘contagion?’ Why are ‘disaster’ films so adept at revealing the world as we imagine it to be? What is the role of fear and paranoia in the film (including you as the viewer)?

Dance Education Overview The educational organization to that selected for this project is New York Kids’ Club. The reason, to work with New York Kids' Club, is that teachers can provide performance dance education and dance video programs that no other staffs and organizations are offering in this New York or other states. Children can try new dance programs and challenged themselves with dance program they never learned or taken before in their relationship at the New York Kids Club and other organizations. Students can explore in several formats of performance in dance education, perform in different dance performances and help grow the organization. New York Kids’ Club business established by Tina Olivia Edwards in 2001. Mrs. Edwards is a mother of four children that developed an enrichment center for ages two months to 12 years old for all cultures and races. This organization offers programs in art, dance; combo classes, French, Fitness, Cooking, Theatre and Science subject areas. New York Kids’ Club (2008-2015) states, “These educational organizations offered these afterschool programs in 10 locations and five locations in China state. The medium community income ranged from $19,000.00 to $45,000.00 annual salaries” (New York Kids’ Club, 2008-2015). By having an MBA and soon a Master’s of Education, this organization may offer higher salaries over $45,000.00 for certain employees. It is very important to understand the past and present of educational organizations in order to determine whether or not they are using the same materials and programs, but using new materials and programs. History including the Past and Present of Dance Education Educational Organizations change education for Pre-K to College and non-school people from the past to the present time. New York Kids’ Club founded in the year of 2001 in New York, NY. Klerides (2014) believed, “Teaching history in the regional context and developing new approaches to teaching the history of countries on the basis of mutual respect” (Klerides, 2014, p.20). Even since New York Kids’ Club has opened, no changes other than opening different locations. They opened at Williamsburg, then Beijing, China and later New York City. Other changes include hiring different employment opportunities in different afterschool activities ay New York Kids’ Club. This organization should offer dance programs for ages 10-12 including dance video programs. Overall, there should be changes in the organization of the dance programs. Bonbright and McGreevy-Nichols (2012) believes, "Representatives from each of the four art forms write a short article that would envision the teaching of their art form at the turn of the next century in 2099. They wrote two articles for dance in the U.S. education system for all children had equal access to quality d.

I need a title page and someone to go over the outline and the rest of this report to make sure everything as it should be and put it in one report instead of seperate parts. Please follow the instructions below to make sure that it is as the professor stated. Project 5 The Analytical Report PART THREE: Assignment Details The formal Analytical Report is where all of your research, analysis and document design skill comes together to create a document aimed at helping your reader make a decision, following the outline that you've already developed. Your report will contain the following: Title page Table of contents Abstract (summary) Text of the report, including introduction, body (which may be organized under subheadings), and conclusion. Note: This only needs to be about 2 single spaced pages. Pretty short! Visual element (optional) References page A Word to the Wise: Research refers to the material you gather from sources. Analysis refers to the USE you put to that material. That is to say, your job is to examine and present one or more ideas from that material in such a way as to make a particular point. The particular point will be related to your overall goal for the Report. It may provide evidence for a claim you are making, provide background information, address a possible objection that you think your reader might have or something else. You are in control of the meaning your reader gets from the sources you choose. Your own words that lead into the source (whether your source is in the form of a direct quote, paraphrase or summary) AND your own words that follow the source set up a framework that tells the reader how to understand the source. Those framing words of yours are just as important as the source you use (maybe more). Nothing just speaks for itself. How you plan to use sources will affect how you evaluate them. Not every source has to directly support your thesis; sources can have other functions in a paper. They can: provide background information or context for your topic explain terms or concepts that your readers might not understand provide evidence for your argument lend authority to your argument offer alternative interpretations and counterevidence to your argument Read Lannon, Ch. 22, "Formal Analytical Reports," taking care to look at the checklist on page 552. Use your outline to begin drafting your document. You may find that aspects have changed; that's okay. Remember that the outline is merely a working document or tool for your use. Make sure you are adhering to APA in-text citation rules AND include an APA formatted References page ! Format and Length: Follow the model in Lannon, p. 539-549. Your report will not be as long as this, but must be about six single spaced pages. Keep in mind that the Title page, Table of contents, Abstract and References are all on their own pages, which means the body of your Report will be only about two single-spaced pages at a minimum . More is fine. Don't .
