...you and all of its beauty. From the ever flowing Mississippi River, to the ledges of the mighty Grand Canyon, or even to the peak of Mt. Fuji there is an immense amount of things on this Earth that are so incredible it is hard to believe science and chance created these magnificent things. So what is the best explanation for these occurrences? I believe that these occurrences scream of an intelligent designer which also leads us to the existence of God. First I must explain what an argument for design is and then we will look at Paley’s Watchmaker Theory to give us better insight on this argument. Then I will point to Betty and Cordell’s argument that the things of our universe lead us to a belief in God (intelligent designer) and that the Big Bang theory is not the best explanation alone for the existence of God, and that a multiverse is not the best explanation for the existences in our universe. Design arguments most often try to explain the existence of God by pointing to various occurrences and objects within our world and universe that lead us to believe that there is an intelligent designer. According to the Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy, design arguments usually consist of three premises. One is a premise that asserts that the material universe exhibits some verifiable property (F); Two is a premise that asserts that (F) is persuasive evidence of intelligent design or purpose; Three concludes that the best or most probable explanation that the material universe exhibits...

Mc Donald’s product/market expansion grids are as follows: Market penetration Marketing efforts of the company to offer their existing product in the current market is called market penetration strategy. This strategy is when the company is looking to adapt for increasing their sales and profits. The best way to do this is to attract the competitor’s customer and looking for potential customer for the existing products. There are three major way to increasing current product market share which are encourage current customer to buy more, attract competitor’s customer, and convince non-user to use the products. McDonald’s current products are Big Mac, Grilled chicken Foldovers, Quarter Pounder, Beverages, and others. As for their current market, they have students, working professionals and also families. In order to increase their market, Mc Donald’s collaborate with institutes and universities for opening an outlet at campuses, easily accessible places and commercial area. Besides that, McDonald’s also invest on advertisement, vouchers, and coupons. McDonald’s advertisements are also creative to attract the non-user product to buy their products. Another example is, in summer, McDonald’s offer soft drinks no matter what size, for $1. The company would like their locations to become a destination of...

...Mountain Lion The topic I chose to research is a mountain lion because I find them to be an interesting living mammal. I have three cats at home and wanted to research the correlation that the mountain lion and cats share. Mountain lions affect society in way that they are an endangered set of mammals because they are known to attack people and children. They once roamed nearly all of the United States. They were prized by hunters and despised by farmers and ranchers who suffered livestock losses at their hands. This has changed my view of science by looking at the mountain lion in a biological, physiological, psychological way. Anatomy The mountain lion is the largest cat native to North America. Their head is small and they have a short and round face while their neck and body are elongated and narrow. The mountain lion is that their hind legs are longer than their front legs in which they utilize for running and jumping. The mountain lion has a long spinal column, which provides an increase lumbar flexation when they run. Adult mountain lions are a plain colored cat. Their color can vary from grey to dark brown to tawny and buff cinnamon red depending on the geographical location that they reside in. The tail is long, cylindrical with lots of hair. The muzzles are black located on the sides. Their upper lip, chin, and throat are whitish. The tail is the same color as body, except for the tip, which is either dark brown or black. Male mountain lions are usually larger than...

...Everything started with the big bang, one brief moment in time 14 billion years ago that contain the answers to our greatest questions about our past, our present, and our future. There are billions and billions galaxies in the world, we can’t even imagine what those numbers mean but 14 billion years ago, none of it existed until the big bang the origin of space and time. This is our world cities forest oceans people everything is made of matter created of the big bang. Every star, every planet, every drop of water. The big bang is the defining event of our universe and everything in it. The secrets of our past, our present and our future are in one moment in time. So was there before the bang, what banged and did it banged. We built machines the size of cities to simulate conditions when the universe was created and space telescope to peer deep into our past. “We are getting close to answering the old-age questions. Why are we here? Where did we come from? Does the universe in fact have a beginning or an end...? If we know the answer we know the mind of god” (A Brief History of Time 3). Since 1920 everything we know about universe has been turned upside down. Before that we thought our universe was static and eternal. Until 1919 scientist believed that the Milky Way (earth’s Galactic Home) contained the whole universe. .

...song, there is a typical of Basie’s early riff style. There were at least five different riffs. You know, there was one riff of saxophones used behind the trombone solo. Another riff the trumpets used behind the saxophone solo. And another ensemble chorus, which consisted of about three different riffs: the saxophone section doing one, the trombones doing another, and the trumpets doing another one. The instrumentation is based on “head arrangements” where each section makes up their part based on what the other sections are playing. The Basie’s music is always intended for dancing and thus it makes sense that he has the best rhythm section, which bases on bass, drums and guitar in the song. The high- fidelity (hi-fi) song affects a lot of big bands. Finally until duration of the song (3.19 minute), people want to dance. -------------------------------------------- [ 1 ].

...Geology and its Ramifications for Life in the 21st Century.” This article was written by Dr. Terry Mortenson in August of 2003. After reading this review, one will have an idea of what the article was about as well as its main points. One will also have an understanding of the author’s strong points and where the article could have been better. Finally the reader of this paper will understand my own opinion of this article. Brief Overview and Main Points This article was written to give the audience an idea of how people have different opinions of the age of the Earth. The article briefly describes several people including their background and their view on the age of the Earth. It gives several scientific views that range from “The Big Bang Theory” to “Darwinism.” This article then discusses how almost every opinion on the age of the Earth completely ignores and goes against what the “Holy Bible” teaches us. Article Strengths This article has many points in which one would consider them to be strong, valid, and well written. Doctor Mortenson, who is the author of this article, gives a clear view of how the opinions on the age of the Earth have changed with time. While discussing the changes of views he makes it not too short but not too long. The article is well organized with the scientific theories of each person mentioned being chronologically organized by the dates of their deaths. There were very few noticeable grammatical errors found when reviewing the article...

...Introduction God is the source of much doubt and controversy, of peace and of war. At this point in our human existence what was once certain and unquestionable has become the most questioned topic. The faithful, believing people have become unsure. I guess the question is either God exists or He doesn't. There really is no middle territory, and any attempt to remain neutral in relation to God's existence is automatically putting you in the category of unbelief. The age old question is far from being an irrelevant one, because if God does exist, then nothing else really matters; if He does not exist, then what does really matter at all. Until now I've never been put in a position where my faith was questioned. I found this title somewhere, I cannot remember where I saw it, but it describes me the best it can; as a recovering Catholic, I really am in no man’s land. Do I believe or not believe, that is the stand I have to take in this paper one way or another, yes or no, black or white. At that point this became more than a final paper. Can I, comfortably write a paper stating that God does not exist? After thorough personal inflection, I had my answer, and with much of my upbringing weighing down on me. I will try making my case for the existence of God. ("God." Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary. 2009.

The topic is based on business-level strategy. The selected article is based on cost advantage which gives the company overall competitive advantage. Guy Russo promotes a volume-driven strategy to emphasis economies of scale. He did this through lowering prices and therefore high volume of products were sold. They worked on the value chain, in particular the supply network. They have affected the process technology and process design. Instead of getting products through three of four different hands they purchased it directly through Asian manufactures in big volumes. These big orders resulted in cost savings which translated in to lower prices. The company refocused their target market on mums and families, as research shows, that they spend more than any other customer group....

...Big Mac Meal, Big Mess Jordan Jasnoch, Devyn Kennedy, Ashley Hoffer, Cheyenne Hanson The large, glowing “M” in the distance beckons me forward as I head into McDonalds, a strange land of food that smells of oil, grease, sweat, and meat. The clambering of people all around me blurs into one indistinguishable chorus of noise. I ignore this as I sit down in a cold, leathery cushion to enjoy my meal. I start as always with the Big Mac, a dripping monster that is barely kept together by the buns that house the contents. The sight strikes me as odd as it is nothing like was advertised, but instead is pathetic, wet, and seems to be like that of a sad old man awaiting death. With the first bite I notice immediately an explosion of flavors that offend me to no end, such as the bitter “secret sauce.” Towers of pickles add to this bitterness, while processed meat so horrid that it could only have come from a clinically depressed cow puts on a parade of disgust and disappointment in my mouth. Within moments, the nauseating smell of said “secret sauce” fills my nostrils. The world’s largest fast food chain hasn’t kept this sauce much of a secret. Consumers can easily find that it is made of straightforward ingredients such as store bought mayonnaise, pickle relish, onion powder, yellow mustard, white vinegar, garlic powder, and paprika. Certainly not the palate of kings, this repulsive sauce has the consistency of dog vomit and I am rather sickened as the vile substance drips down my...

...many opportunities, but how we respond to them depends on what we love and look for out life. I believe that most people fear the abilities they posses. The fear leads them to there own failures. Who am I you ask? I am a twenty-two year old independent African American female student with ambitions as well as dreams that are going to take me to the ultimate heights of prosperity. In a physical sense I am taller than your average female and slim in size. I have always been the most athletic one of family. I possess many qualities that I believe will help further my success in life such loyalty, intelligence, and kindness. Outspoken could be easily suggested when it comes to voicing my opinion. “I could never tell a lie.” Honesty plays a big role in my character. I am a motivator to friends and family. My interaction with the youth and my involvement within the community is only the start of reaching my dreams of becoming a social worker. No good deed goes unwatched, regardless of the way you feel about it. This fact has inspired me to always set a good example for younger generations as well as my peers. Beauty is one of the many traits that came as a blessing, along with having the gift of being a talented free spirited dancer. I am the product of a beautiful bi racial couple.

...The product can differ from country to country if a company chooses to adapt its product to local tastes or to create a new product specifically for local tastes. Thus, Starbucks introduced a green tea Frappuccino in China.When going abroad, it is important for a business to realize that there are differences in international markets. While McDonald's is consistently recognizable around the world, the company alters its menu slightly in every market. In the Netherlands, McDonald's offers a specialty called the McKroket, in parts of Canada the chain serves a dish known as poutine and in India McDonald's offers a beef-free version of the Big Mac called the Maharaja Mac. This strategy allows McDonald's to maintain an international brand and offer local foods that people want. Since its founding in the 1940s, IKEA has grown to be one of the world’s largest furniture retailers, selling a typically Swedish mix of products in every country in which it does business. IKEA’s international expansion began in 1974, and today the firm generates only eight percent of its sales in Sweden. IKEA products are known for their European stylishness and their good value for money. Their sales volume gives the firm high economies of scale and volume discounts from suppliers. However, when the firm entered the North American market in 1985, the stores were not immediately profitable. American tastes differed significantly from Swedish preference ssuch as in the size of beds, drinking glasses, dresser...
