Firstly, some arguments focus on changes in maternal and obstetric characteristics (e.g., older maternal age, greater pre-pregnancy weight, higher prevalence of nulliparity) that have increased the risk of perinatal complications [ 11].
Firstly, Lantos' argument is simply orthogonal to the concern that allocating infants to low and high target ranges carries differential risks.
Plantinga proposed two complementary arguments: Firstly, that the finite goods of morality in the world and human free will outweigh the finite evil which occurs in the world.
Firstly, Field's argument is carefully formulated so as to avoid any appeal to problematic causal theories of knowledge.
Firstly, Zermelo's argument goes back to 1902 (see Felgner 2010: 167); he had discovered the Russell paradox independently as early as 1900.
Firstly, the main argument of this paper is twofold: (1) there is a convergence with open source in informatics that ranges from bio-informatics to synthetic biology and (2) the kind of alternative that is taking shape remains limited.
'Internal' relations are often of the 'nucleus-satellite' type: they are deployed to increase the success of a nuclear proposition (or set of propositions) or proposal (or set of proposals); but they can also be 'multi-nuclear', as in internal sequence used to link steps in an argument (firstly, secondly … furthermore).
Firstly, Cantor's argument rests on logic to prove the existence of transfinite numbers as an actual mathematical entity, whereas intuitionists hold that mathematical entities cannot be reduced to logical propositions, originating instead in the intuitions of the mind.
Coke, rather than directly confronting opposing counsel, made a twofold argument; firstly, that the fact that the King's Bench had been allowed to hear assumpsit actions for so long meant that it was acceptable, based on institutional inertia, and second that, on the subject of assumpsit being used for breaches of promise, that the original agreement included an implied promise to make payment.
Firstly, aside from the argument that this bargain-basement mix of celebrity tittle-tattle and non-news is bad for good journalism – a "travesty" is how media commentator Roy Greenslade describes it – there is your own intellectual well-being to consider.
