I.
Based on what we have discussed about the First Way of St. Aquinas, I learned that a being whose essence is to exist is called a necessary being. The universe contains only contingent beings. God would be the only necessary being because he exists. Dependent beings cannot cause themselves. They are dependent on their causes. If there is no independent being, then the whole chain of dependent beings is dependent on nothing and could not exist. But they do exist. Therefore there is an independent being. I learned that there must have been an unmoved mover (GOD) who first put things in motion. I learned that nothing can move itself. If every object in motion had a mover, then the first object in motion needed a mover. Therefore this first mover is the Unmoved Mover, called God. The chain of movers must have a first mover because nothing can move itself. The First Way is all about Motion. Motion means moving to any kind of change, not just change of place. So, if the whole chain of moving things had no first mover, it could not now be moving, as it is. If there were an infinite regress of movers with no first mover, no motion could ever begin, and if it never began, it could not go on and exist now. But it does go on, it does exist now. Therefore it began, and therefore there is a first mover.
God is simple, without composition of parts, such as body and soul, or matter and form. God is perfect, lacking nothing. That is, God is distinguished from other beings on account of God's complete actuality. God is not finite in the ways that created beings are physically, intellectually, and emotionally limited. This infinity is to be distinguished from infinity of size and infinity of number. God is unchallengeable, incapable of

...El Presidente: The General Emilio Aguinaldo Story and the First Philippine Republic Review Posted by Robert V. Yesterday I managed to go to one of my favorite cinema houses and watch the Scenema Concept International and Viva Films' entry to the 38th Metro Manila Film Festival "El Presidente: The General Emilio Aguinaldo Story and the First Philippine Republic. | A Scene from The "El Presidente"  | El Presidente tells the story of the Philippines' very first president Gen. Emilio Aguinaldo, the deliverance of the Philippines from the hands of its colonists and the establishment of our first republic. Jeorge "ER" Estregan plays the lead role with Cesar Montano as Andres Bonifacio. The entire movie did not disappoint me as it was able to deliver what I was expecting based on the theatrical trailer they released. I am no expert when it comes to the Philippine History but I have some knowledge about our past so this film's plot is not that new to me but this movie still gave me some new things about this particular matter of which I do not know if those were really part of our history or just an additional "spice" to the film to make it a little bit entertaining and that maybe because what director Meily described the movie as "fiction film based on a historical figure" according Abs-cbnnews.com. For example if my memory serves me correctly, I never read nor heard during my school days that the katipuneros used bow and arrows. In the movie especially during the ambush...

...EL PRESIDENTE; THE GENERAL EMILIO AGUINALDO STORY AND THE FIRST PHILIPPINE REPUBLIC: A DISTORTED HISTORY Posted by Xian Kahlil Anzures at 13 March, at 18 : 12 PM Print Batay sa libro na sinulat ni Heneral Emilio Aguinaldo. Ang kasaysayan  ng pelikula ay uminog sa kanyang buhay at sa ilang bahagi ng rebolusyong Pilipino simula sa kolonyalistang Espanya hanggang sa Imperyalistang Estados Unidos at ng Imperyong Hapon. Ang pelikula ay tila mula sa interpretasyon nila Direktor Mark Meily at Aktor Producer Jeorge “E.R.” Estregan at hindi dapat iaakma ng manonood sa aktuwal na pangyayari na naganap sa kasaysayan ng Pilipinas, subalit kailangan ng patnubay ng mga matatanda ang mga batang manonood, para na rin maipaliwanag ng wasto ang ating kasaysayan sa mga ito. Sa esensya na para maging makatotohanan ang pelikula, Espanyol ang lenguwahe na ginamit ng mga karakter. Kapansin-pansin din ang paggamit ng makailang ulit na “slow motion” para mabigyan ng pansin ang mga eksena sa pelikula, subalit tila dito na umiinog ang moda ng aksyon ng mga labanan sa giyera sa kabuuan ng pelikula . Kalakhan ng mga pangalan at pangyayari na nabanggit at ginampanan ng ilang tauhan sa pelikula ay nasa  libro ng kasaysayan. Bagaman may mga bahagi ng palabas o eksena na tila nabago o hindi nabigyan ng katarungan sa ating kasaysayan. Malaking bahagi ng pelikula ang karakter ni Andres Bonifacio na binigyang buhay sa katauhan ni Cesar Montano. Di mapapalagpas ang eksena kung saan naganap ang paghalal sa...

MANILA BAY bay of the South China Sea extending into southwestern Luzon Island, Philippines. Almost completely landlocked, it is considered one of the world’s great harbours and has an area of 770 sq mi (2,000 sq km) with a 120-mi (190-km) circumference. Its widest diameter, from northwest to southeast, measures 36 mi. Corregidor Island, 30 mi west of Manila, divides the bay’s 11-mi-wide entrance into two channels—the seldom used South Channel and the safer, 2-mi-wide North Channel between Bataan Peninsula and Corregidor. The northern and northeastern shore of the bay adjoins Luzon’s central plain. There the bay is shallow and lined by the mud flats and mangrove swamps of the delta of the Pampanga River, site of the most extensive commercial fishponds in the Philippines. Most of the bay is between 30 and 120 ft (10 and 40 m) deep; the tidal range is only moderate. Manila Harbor...

...Sa topic na ito, natututunan ko na ang siyensya ay isa sa pina ka importanteng bagay sa daigdig maging sa unang panahon o makabago man. Ipinaliwanag din kung gaano ka halaga ang Siyensya at Enlightment. Ipinakita ng mga scientist kung paano nila na diskobre at na palaganap ang mga bagay na hindi kayang ma diskobre ng mga sinuang tao. Masasabi ko kung wala sila, wala tayong mga teknolohiyang ginagamit ngayon. Hindi lang mga teknolohiya kung di mga measurements rin. Kagaya ng “Pythagorean Theorem”. Hindi lang sa pag didiskobre ang natutunan ko. Kung hindi ang pagpapahalaga rin at pagmamalaki sa mga naka diskobre nito. Sa mga gawain nila Galileo Galilie ay silang naghirap rin para mapaunlad ang siyentipikong bagay. Kahit man mahirap sa kanila ay hindi parin nila pinigilang mag diskobre at mag aral sa mga bagay bagay. Malaking dulot rin ito sa kanilang panahon at malaking tulong para sa mga taong nagtataka. Kagaya ng kung paano nag rotate ang daigdig, bakit palagi tayong nasa lupa at bakit hindi tayo lumilipad. At ang masasabi kong pinaka importanteng na diskobre ay yung kay Newton 3 laws of motion. At ang nadiskobre ni Galileo Galilie. At ayon naman sa aklat ay minabuti naman ng mga tao ang pagpanggalaga at pagpalaganap ng mga na diskobre nila. Gayon paman ay nag tayo sila ng skwelahan at itnuro ang mga nagging na diskobre ng syentista. Nalalaman ko din na may iba pa palang mga syentisang hindi nalaman ng ibang tao. Kagaya nalang ni Hans Lippershey na syang unang naka...

Citations are also encouraged. Don't just recap the readings.               The topics covered this week are interesting in that they have great implications for democratic theory.  Issue voting would indicate an attentive public, while retrospective voting could render campaign promises meaningless.  The enterprise of assessing the determinants of vote choice is an extremely complicated one that suffers from several common difficulties.             The first is the availability of data.  Panel studies and surveys are expensive and time consuming, and therefore not consistently performed.  This hodge-podge of available data forces researchers to draw broad conclusions from data covering limited periods of time.  For example, Marcus and Converse used data from two elections.  The Kiinder and Abelson piece discussed by Asher found that candidate assessment fell along two separate dimensions – competence and integrity, yet the data was drawn during the Carter administration.  Carter may be a uniquely extreme example; an individual especially strong on integrity and weak on competence.  Similarly, CCMS drew conclusions about issue salience during a particularly non-contentious time period.  Many of these studies may be reporting substantially...

...Aerobics is a form of physical exercise that combines rhythmic aerobic exercise withstretching and strength training routines with the goal of improving all elements of fitness (flexibility, muscular strength, and cardio-vascular fitness). It is usually performed to music and may be practiced in a group setting led by an instructor (fitness professional), although it can be done solo and without musical accompaniment. With the goal of preventing illness and promoting physical fitness, practitioners perform various routines comprising a number of different dance-like exercises. Formal aerobics classes are divided into different levels of intensity and complexity. Aerobics classes may allow participants to select their level of participation according to their fitness level. Many gyms offer a variety of aerobic classes. Each class is designed for a certain level of experience and taught by a certified instructor with a specialty area related to their particular class. HISTORY Both the term and the specific exercise method were developed by Dr. Kenneth Cooper, M.D., an exercise physiologist, and Col. Pauline Potts, a physical therapist, both of the United States Air Force. Dr. Cooper, an avowed exercise enthusiast, was personally and professionally puzzled about why some people with excellent muscular strength were still prone to poor performance at tasks such as long-distance running, swimming, and bicycling. He began measuring systematic human performance using a bicycle ergometer...
