Privacy is the state of being free from intrusion in one’s personal life‚ or so it used to be. In Simson Garfinkel’s article “Privacy Under Attack” he discusses how technology has invaded people’s privacies over the years and continues to do so. From telephone systems and mail to car computers and surveillance cameras. Simson discusses positive points that make perfect sense in his article‚ but he also assumes false points‚ does not back them up with strong evidence‚ and makes logical fallacies

are 3 main arguments that each seek to prove the existence of God; the Ontological‚ Cosmological‚ and Teleological Arguments. Each is different in its approach‚ but all arrive at the same conclusion. Ontological Argument argues God’s existence from the assumption of the existence a “Greatest Thing that can ever be conceived.” From there‚ it argues that in order for something to be “The Greatest Thing ever” it must exist physically (that is outside of the mind). The Cosmological Argument argues that

Examine the key features of the Teleological argument. The word teleological comes from the Greek word ‘Telos’ which means purpose. The teleological argument is a posteriori and like the cosmological argument‚ attempts to prove the existence of God. It claims that certain phenomena within the universe appear to display features of design and are perfectly adapted to fulfil their function. Therefore‚ if features of the universe are so perfectly designed‚ for example the structure and function of

Biometric Student Identification By: Jay Fry Ed.D. June 2009 According to fry‚ Schools are faced with a myriad of problems never encountered in previous decades. Security has become a significant concern. It is now crucial that school administrators know who is in their schools and where the students are at all times. Accurate and auditable attendance and reporting is vital in not only securing‚ but also maintaining‚ essential governmental funding. Accurate identification and tracking

wrote the five cosmological arguments that support the existence of God. A cosmological argument is an argument that supports the existence of God and that everything that exists was caused by something else. One of Aquinas’ ways to prove God’s existence is through the argument of possibility and necessity. He argues that there must be a first necessary being to set the chain of causes in motion which results in the universe today. Summary of the Argument The argument is based off of the fact that

Iris Recognition; Integro-differential I. INTRODUCTION Due to the increasingly demanded security in reality‚ technologies have offered several systems for Pearson recognition which mainly depend on biometric features‚ and which posses wide commercial and security applications. Biometric systems exploit biological/behavior characteristics as means of identification [1]‚ and such biological characteristics are more efficient and reliable for person recognition. Being mainly dependent on the

Modern Versions of the Ontological Argument Norman Malcolm One influential attempt to ground the ontological argument in the notion of God as an unlimited being. As Malcolm describes this idea: “God is usually conceived of as an unlimited being. He is conceived of as a being who could not be limited‚ that is‚ as an absolutely unlimited being.… If God is conceived to be an absolutely unlimited being He must be conceived to be unlimited in regard to His existence as well as His operation. In this

This research addresses the question of whether the change from a manual attendance register to a biometric time and attendance system would more effectively ensure the availability of Municipal employees to improve basic service delivery.

As we want trust (security)‚ the notion what you are is a new opportunity to user authentication. Biometric Authentication is answer for that. Biometric is a characteristic of human being that distinguishes one person from another. For example‚ finger prints‚ retina‚ face recognition‚ etc. This can be used for identification or verification of identity. Keywords: FAR‚ FRR‚

Explain the Teleological Argument (25) The Teleological Argument is widely known as The Design Argument. It originated from the greek word ’telos’ which means ’end’. The is a posteriori and inductive argument which means it looks at the evidence and concludes from it. The classic Design Argument claims that the universe has order‚ purpose and regularity and the complexity of the universe shows evidence of design. This leads to the conclusion that there is a designer of the universe who is said
