This document discusses a study on reactive compatibilization of natural rubber (NR)/carboxylated nitrile rubber (XNBR) blends using maleic anhydride-grafted-polyisoprene (MAPI) and epoxy resin as dual compatibilizers. The results show that addition of the compatibilizers decreases cure time and increases scorch time of the blends, improving processability. Mechanical properties like tensile strength, tear strength and elongation also increase with the compatibilizers. Additionally, solvent resistance of the blends increases with higher XNBR content and addition of the compatibilizers. The compatibilizers are believed to react at the interface of the immiscible NR
This document evaluates the performance of front windshield wipers on a Toyota Kijang KF80 vehicle. It finds that the effectiveness of the wiper blades in wiping the windshield is 63.92% based on the areas wiped and total windshield area. The gear ratio between the worm gear and drive gear is 8:1, reducing the motor's rotation and increasing the wiper's moment. The washer system discharges water at a rate of 0.0017 liters per second based on measurements of tank volumes and time. Proper functioning of the windshield wiper and washer system is important for driver visibility and safety.
The 6 Thinking Hats technique developed by Edward De Bono separates critical thinking into 6 different perspectives represented by colored hats. When considering a problem or issue, participants are asked to only consider the perspective indicated by the hat they are "wearing" at that time. This allows the group to examine the issue from different angles in a structured way. Some key hats include the Yellow Hat for optimism, the Black Hat for caution/critique, the Green Hat for creative solutions, and the Blue Hat for process management. The technique can be used with single hats or by following sequences of hats like Yellow then Black for evaluation or Blue then Green for design thinking.

Missing Money
This statement was taken from a security guard. During his shift a lot of money disappeared from the company's safe. (Ignore this sentence in your analysis)
"I work the 12m - 8a shift at the research facility. I am the only guard on duty during that shift. I like to arrive at work a few minutes early, usually 10 - 15 minutes. This gives me time to talk to the guard I relieve.
On the night of the break-in, I arrived at 11:50 pm. Jim Jones, the 4p - 12m guard, and I had a conversation about the World Series being interrupted by the earthquake. It was a terrible thing to happen, especially for serious baseball fans. We talked about my being a Giants fan and him being a fan of the “A’s”. We also talked about the weather here locally and the problems with the economy. Joe left at 11:55 pm since he knows I like to start my rounds at exactly 12:00 midnight.
I began to suspect something was wrong about 3:00 am when I noticed the back gate was unlocked. A few minutes later, I was convinced that something was wrong when I found the payroll office door unlocked and the safe open. I recalled reading a story last year about money being taken from another facility. The guy who took the money wasn’t caught.
My first reaction was to call the boss. The boss has instructed us to call him in any emergency. He was pretty upset when I woke him up at 4:00 am. At no time did I see any strangers on the facility that night. My boss suggested that we add another guard to the night shift. I told him that I believe this is a good idea since it might help prevent future thefts.
That’s basically what happened that night."

This narrative is about a lost check (ignore this sentence in your analysis).
On December 15, 19-- in the late afternoon hours, Don L. Harrington, wife Wanda, and friends Amy Barr, Judy Partin and Myself Bob Boone, went to Taylor’s to pick up some layaway items. We used two cars because there was some bulky merchandise such as bicycles and a battery-operated car. Don had just gotten his paycheck so instead of making a trip to the bank he would pay the balance of the layaway with his check. Wanda usually handles the finances, so she had Don’s check in her purse. So Wanda hands Don his check which in turn he gives it to the layaway clerk. The clerk looked at the check and said that she couldn’t accept it but it was obvious that the clerk was inexperienced, because in fact it was the other clerk working in layaway that told the clerk that she would have to check with the manager first. So the clerk takes the check over to the manager and we all see the manager shake her head “no.” By this time Don sees that he can’t use his check which was a surprise to us because it was a payroll check instead of a personal check. But instead of causing chaos, Don decided to pay for it in cash which Wanda had in her purse. So Don asked her for the money, gave it to the clerk, the clerk gave him the receipt, and we went to th.

You are a rookie investigator assigned to the Juvenile Sex Crimes Unit. Because you are new to the unit, the supervisor of the unit has assigned you to work with veteran investigator Jake Wilson to get your training in sex crimes unit investigations. During your tour of duty on your first day, you receive a call to proceed to 1255 Maple Street to meet a patrol officer who is on a juvenile sex assault call at the No Tell Motel. On arrival, you learn that the suspect was seen by law enforcement officers acting suspicious in the parking lot earlier in the day, and when he spotted officers, he quickly drove away from the motel parking lot. After a short chase, officers took the subject, Jose Torres, H/M 35 years of age, into custody.
After taking the suspect into custody, he was asked by officers why he ran, and he opened up to officers and told them that he had been having sex with an underage 14-year-old girl, his girlfriend, in the motel room and had gotten scared when he saw the police. You also learn that officers did not read him his rights before asking him questions regarding the scene and recognize this might be a problem in the case. The crime scene had been entered already by several police officers who stopped by to visit the crime scene, and office management had also stopped by. The 14-year-old female was also at the crime scene, and your partner is interviewing her on the scene to find out what happened.

Strip searches performed in US prisons and at airports have been criticized as inhumane. While defenders argue they help find contraband, critics say they disrespect human dignity and can traumatize prisoners. Stories describe prisoners and suspects being forced to disrobe fully, sometimes in front of officers of the opposite sex, and in rare cases being sexually abused. Laws permitting widespread strip searches have been challenged, and some policies have changed after highly publicized abuse cases, but the practices still occur and concerns remain about the psychological toll on those subjected to strip searches.

This document summarizes a person's experience at a government office to renew their expired passport. They encountered difficulties finding parking and had to walk several blocks. At the office, employees reviewed paperwork but did not provide helpful signs. Forms could not be downloaded online. The applicant spent all morning waiting and observed long wait times, lack of seating, and confusion among other visitors. By talking to others, the person found universal agreement that the process was frustrating and disorganized, negatively impacting visitors with particular needs. The experience highlighted opportunities to improve the space allocation, signage, and efficiency to make obtaining a passport less stressful.
Strip searches performed in US prisons and at airports have been criticized as inhumane. While defenders argue they help find contraband, critics say they disrespect human dignity and can traumatize prisoners. Stories describe prisoners and suspects being forced to disrobe fully, sometimes in front of officers of the opposite sex, and in rare cases being sexually abused. Laws permitting widespread strip searches have been challenged, and some policies have changed after highly publicized abuse cases, but the practices still occur and concerns remain about the psychological toll on those subjected to strip searches.

Field Period
Journals
Winter 2015
1/5/15
Today, I started my Field Period at the Yates County courthouse. There was some trouble
getting into the building at first, but after some traveling around things were all worked out.
This made me realize that I should have called or emailed my site a few days before to get access
to the building. During the day I observed the Court Security Officer checking in people in
Family Court and sending them in when it was there turn to see the judge. It was very interesting
to all the types of people that were in family court and all the lawyers. I also was able to observe
some family court hearings which I liked best of the day. I never have seen any type of court
hearings other than on TV and a lot of these cases went by much faster than I thought they
would. I also got to meet the judge. I think there were about 45 cases seen that day. I also
viewed some of the things that go on when first walking in the courthouse at the MAG station. If
you are not an officer, courthouse worker or lawyer then you must put your stuff through an x-
ray machine and walk through a metal detector. Overall, a very interesting day.
1/6/15
Today, I was at the courthouse again. The judge was hearing Supreme Court cases this
afternoon, there were only three cases today in total, but they were a bit longer than yesterday
and even more interesting. While in the courtroom I sat behind the court security officer, It was
very cool to see the proceedings from that side of things. Hopefully before this Field Period is
over I will get to see a bigger court case that takes an hour or more instead of these much shorter
cases. In the morning I was in the control room where all the monitors display surveillance
cameras from the courthouse and across the street at the county building. It was not the most
exciting time, but it was good to see the background work to keep the buildings safe.
1/7/15
I was in the jail today I followed the rover around most of the day and learned a lot about the jail
and how things are ran in this particular county jail. They house mainly Yates County offenders,
but there are some federal inmates and one from another county. They also had to send someone
to another county because of troubles she was causing a officer. I learned about their recreation
time, meal time, how the jail is set up, the inmates minimum standards and viewed a lot of
paperwork that is dealt with on a daily basis. When the rover I was following had to do a
transport I stayed up in booking and observed how that was done. There are a lot of questions
the booking officer has to ask the inmate before they can be put in their cell. This jail was quite
different from the one I did my Field Period at freshman year.
1/8/15
Today I was in the 911 Communications Division observing the tellers taking phone calls and
dispatching fire, police, or EMS to the appropriate places. There was a school tour this morning
and that gave me a lot of the information I needed to learn about what goes on in the 911 center
and how to get a job there. I also got my photo taken today for my ID and looked at some past
crime scene photos that are uploaded into the dispatchers computers . It was very cool and eye
opening to see the real crime scene photos with some dead bodies and animals and car accidents
2. and the like. Not as boring as freshman year at the Delaware County dispatch center, that is for
sure.
1/9/15
I was in the dispatch center again today. I observed more of how the dispatchers took calls and
noted that they were all calm on the phone and were required to ask a series of questions
depending on the condition of the caller or the person that was being called for. Each dispatcher
has a relatively large book that gives the appropriate questions to ask for multiple situations. I
also received my guest pass that I will be wearing for the continuation of my Field Period.
Overall, it was a good and informative week. I am curious to see what next week will bring. The
only complaint I have is that I wish I could do some ride alongs with the county road patrol or
get a more indepth look at what an investigator does.
1/12/15
I was in the county courthouse again with court security today. I was in control for the first hour
and noticed that there was a memorandum put out telling the people of the building that I was
going to be there observing for the month. It was quite interesting. There was Family Court
hearings in the morning, one case was settled and one was moved to another date because a
lawyer was sick. In the afternoon there was one case that was settled. There was an adoption
later that day, but I was not allowed to observe that. While in control I acknowledged alarms,
watched the cameras for transport coming in, and learned a little more about the courthouse
overall. It was a pretty slow day.
1/13/14
Today, I was in the courthouse again. I helped unlock the building and set up for court that day.
I was glad that I was able to do something, even if it was very tiny. I was able to observe County
Court in the morning and Family and Supreme in the afternoon. It is very awesome that I get to
observe more than just one kind of court to see all of the different types there are. I could see
myself as a court security officer. After helping clean up the courtroom when all the cases were
done I spent the rest of the day at the MAG station where a few people showed up for probation
and talked with the officer, a Keuka alum, a little bit about how he came upon this job. A lot of
the people I have been talking to have said they basically just fell into the job and started out
wanting to do something else, I hope I end up working somewhere I love.
1/14/15
At the jail today I followed a rover around again and observed how the meals were served,
helped watch for inmates that needed to walk through the halls, and learned more about the
history of the jail and how things have changed a lot since some of the corrections officers
started. It was only a half day today, so I did not do much, but I did get some job advice and was
given some paperwork to look over that inmates in drug court have to fill out. I am very thankful
for all the help everyone I am working with gives me.
1/15/15
In the 911 center I observed more phone calls and met some of the officers that go on these calls
as well as one of their investigators. I loved talking with him and hearing about some of the
cases that he worked. I also learned about what the operator does as traffic stops and saw some
3. of the paperwork they need to print out for the officers if they ask. The dispatchers can see if a
car is registered or is the person stopped has a valid license. I also learned that the computers are
connected for efficiency. I thought that was very smart.
1/20/15
Today I was at the county courthouse. While there I helped the court security officer set up the
courtroom to prepare for that days cases. It was Supreme and County Court today, there was
County Court in the morning. I was able to observe some cases in the morning. There was also
some hearings down on the first floor. Later in the afternoon I was in the Control Room
acknowledging any alarms that came up. I was glad I could help in any way they let me. It is
hard to get any real hands on experience in any of the county systems, they are afraid of liability
problems.
1/21/15
At the jail today I was with a rover with E block for most of the morning. I followed her through
morning block check and observed the trustees deliver breakfast and lunch, So far every morning
I have been there breakfast has always been the same thing, but lunch has varied. In the
afternoon, I was with the E post officer where I followed her during block checks every 15
minutes. During block checks the inmates would ask for things such as paper, toiletries, and
anything else they wanted and were allowed to have. Then we delivered mail to the inmates
after checking it. Some inmates were locked in and were not allowed to roam around the block
like the rest because of rules they broke while there. I was informed that the officers must treat
the inmates all the same no matter what they are in jail for. An interesting concept, although
very hard to accomplish when dealing with people such as a child molester compared to a thief.
1/22/15
While in the 911 Center today, I continued to observe the dispatchers answer calls as well as
review old ones for records and other necessary information. I found out that some calls can be
very silly, like a ride to your doctors appointment by the police. I also learned that when
receiving radio calls the dispatcher must indicate the time that the calls was received. I also
learned there were different types of rings for different types of phone calls, emergencies are
more urgent sounding while information calls are a simple ring. I was able to look at some crime
scene photos of a drug stakeout that is helpful for me to know what type of photos I should be
taking if I decide to be an investigator.
1/23/15
At the 911 center today I noted that no matter what the dispatchers are in the middle of they drop
it to take a call. I also noted that there is one specific dispatcher that answers all the phone calls
while the other two listen in and decide which avenue to use to best help the caller, whether it be
police, ambulance, fire, or a combination. This of course is only if there are three dispatchers in
at the time. While on the call the dispatcher must also ask the caller for their phone number and
address for their records even if they are not calling from or about their home. This helps the
dispatchers in the future know if they have dealt with this person before and what the history was
about the call. I find this should be very helpful, especially when talking about calls involving
the police. I was also able to talk to some investigators and listen to a couple stories that piqued
my interest about the job. I know I want to work in this type of field, but what exactly yet is still
a mystery.
4. 1/26/15
Today, I was at court again. It was a very busy and interesting day to say the least. There was a
pistol permit hearing where the judge was to decide whether or not he would allow a man to get
his permit back after it had been taken away a few years prior. There were four witnesses that
gave testimony, including the man that is looking to get his permit back. After the first two
witnesses the judge declared a short recess before hearing the final two. The case was not
finished today because there was still one more witness to be heard that could not make it today.
In the morning I observed the sergeant doing accreditation for the year, this is where he has to
prove that court security complies to the standards set by New York State. Accreditation needs
to be done yearly and every department has to do it. I also sat at the MAG for a short time and
went to a small retirement party for the sergeant. I also took pictures for accreditation and
helped set up and clean up the courtroom. The rest of the day I was in the control room
acknowledging alarms. I liked seeing the case with the witnesses, however I wish I could have
seen one with a jury.
1/27/15
At the courthouse today I observed a lot of hearings dealing with child support, paternity, health
insurance, and the like. The court room was much smaller and there were few times that lawyers
were involved. It was quite different and much faster than the previous court cases I have seen
and was with a different judge. I also was in the control room for a bit acknowledging alarms.
In the afternoon I watched a fact finding hearing where there were lawyers, witnesses, and
exhibits. Then the judge had to review all the information and make a decision. Then I went
upstairs and saw a man get sentenced to life in prison. It was a very busy day and I think I
enjoyed the courthouse the most of them all.
1/28/15
My last day in jail I observed breakfast, medication, hot water, and lunch distribution. The
trustees give out meals while the officers give out meds and hot water. I also helped observe
inmate movement and the dorm post, as well as phone calls the inmates make and meetings with
their lawyers. The phone calls and meetings are private with lawyers, as in no one can listen in,
but they must be observed through a glass window by the corrections officers. Working in the
jail was interesting, but probably not something I would do for a living.
1/29/15
While in the 911 call center I observed the communications officers and noted they were
contemplating a decision for a new dispatcher. I also learned that they are the gateway to
transfer calls to the appropriate avenues. Then I was able to talk with an investigator and learn a
bit about what he does and some of the cases he has worked on. I loved learning about it and
think that may be something to pursue.
1/30/15
On my last day, I was in Communications and learned more about the way the computer
indicated where police, fire and ambulance are and if they are busy to better choose the
appropriate person to dispatch. This office deals with the county, state and local police officers.
The office usually runs with two to three dispatchers, but they can fit up to four. Three
dispatchers at all times run the smoothest according to them. I also learned today that the fire
5. siren runs from this office. It was great seeing what goes on in the background when dealing
with criminal activity and emergencies, but I wish I was able to do a bit more than just observe.
