Real and Fictional Real and Fictional Crime Show Name Class Date Professor Real and Fictional Crime Show Crime shows are a popular for capturing the attention of an audience whether the crime show is fictional or if it is based on a real life scenario. One of the most popular crimes show on television is CSI while another is 48 Hours. In both of these shows science is employed through forensic investigations to discover who is guilty of committing the crime and develop evidence that will be used in a court of law to prove their guilt. In the fictional television show, CSI, a team of crime scene investigators work with police to solve crimes while in the show 48 hours the steps taken by police in a real crime investigation is laid out as well as how the crime was solved. 48 Hours Episode In the most recent episode of 48 hours police investigate the unsolved murder of a father after his son asks police to reopen the case and find his killer. Police had always suspected victim Russell Douglas was killed by his wife former beauty queen Peggy Sue Thomas. When police reopen the investigation they discover a link between Thomas and a previous boyfriend, James Huden. Through witnesses testimony and linking a gun owned by Huden to the murder he was arrested and convicted. Thomas refused to testify against Huden and Huden refused to implicate Thomas in the murder. Once Huden was found guilty and sentenced to 80 years for the crime he no longer wanted to remain silent about the crime. Even though there was no evidence linking Huden and Thomas together before the crime there were phone cords showing the tow spoke right after the crime was committed. Huden swore in a court of law that Thomas was with him when thee murder was committed. But evidence later surfaced showing the beauty queen could not have been in another state at the time of the murder. Since the convicted felon was discredited and there was no evidence of her guilty, Thomas agreed to a plea deal where she received four years in jail for being involved in the murder after the fact. CSI Episode In the second television show, CSI, a fictional case was presented in Episode 17 the Long Road Home. In this episode, Gene Simmons from Kiss guest stars and is originally considered a suspect in the murder of a groupie who is found deceased in a limousine rented by the band. Simmons claims he is not the murderer and explains the victim was with another member of the band. Through the forensic investigation of the crime scene the evidence leads police to the lead singer of a rock band who claims he was not the killer (CBS, 2014). The evidence located by crime scene investigators was a melted guitar pick belonging to Simmons and his autograph. Despite physical evidence pointing to the lead singer of the rock band he was not the killer. Days after the groupie was murdered a member of the band, Lex was also murdered. This murder could not be con ...

There is currently a high profile case going on in Chattanooga TN. I.docx
There is currently a high profile case going on in Chattanooga TN. In this case it happened January 2015 when the suspect Cortez Sims busted into an apartment building in one of our projects and he began shooting. He shot 4 people one which was a one year old child. When police responded they found all four people inside and one of the victims did not survive. All of the victims were transported to the hospital for treatment. The one year old child was paralyzed and the other victims were later released. One of the victims Bianca Horton was fed up with all of the violence going on and decided that she was going to cooperate and began to tell the investigators that she knew the suspect and she would testify against him. The reason that people were scared of Cortez Sims is because he is a big time ranking gang member even though he was 17 at the time. Investigators were able to get enough evidence against Cortez Sims and took out arrest warrants. He was eventually arrested in Knoxville for the quadruple shootings and the murder of one of the victims. When he was arrested he was taken to juvenile. In the Chattanoogan:
Juvenile Court Judge Rob Philyaw on Thursday morning ordered that 17-year-old Cortez Sims be tried as an adult in a College Hill Courts shooting that left one woman dead, a toddler paralyzed, and two others wounded. This was a victory for the prosecution. Police at the time knew that they had a very good case against Cortez Sims because not only did they have physical evidence of him at the crime scene they also had a witness that was going to testify against him. Two years later when the case was going to go to trial, the police responded to yet another shooting.
Bianca Horton, 26, was found
dead
on the side of the road in the 2100 block of Elder Street on the side of Missionary shortly after 9 a.m. with multiple bullet casings on the ground beside her. The mother of four had been a
witness
in the case against the man accused of shooting her daughter (Chattanooga Times Free Press). This was not only a huge blow to the case but it also woke a lot of the people up to the violence that has been going on. The reason that we believe that she was killed was because she was going to testify against Cortez Sims. So how he found out that she was going to testify, and he gave his gang members a green light to have her taken out. As of to this date we have not be able to solve her murder, we have suspects but as of now we cannot prove that they did it. There are many twists that have played out in this case and it set to go to trial this year. The media has been really involved in this case and has been covering every aspect of the case. In this case I really don't think that the investigators or the prosecutors could have seen this coming with the murder of Bianca Horton. We knew that Cortez Sims was a high ranking gang member but were unaware that he had that much power. This case has opened the eyes of many people in the community an.

A Drug Deal Gone Bad
This assignment aims for you to evaluate the criminal investigations process.
Here’s What Happened . . .
Around 12:00 p.m. on September 13, 2004, Fred Smith walked across the road to Bill Jones's house to ask for a ride. Although it was almost fall, it was still very hot outside and Smith needed to pick up money in a neighboring town. Smith didn't want to walk from Centervale to Roan County, so he offered to pay Jones $20.00 for gas and his time to drive Smith to pick up his money. Jones accepted Smith's offer; however, Jones told Smith that he had to pick up a friend at a car repair shop along the way. Jones and Smith drove to Thrifty Repair Shop and picked up Jones's friend, Roger Fish. Fish was not in a hurry that day, so he agreed to ride with the pair to pick up Smith's money.
The trio arrived at 200 S. Railroad Street, Brysonton, Roan County, AnyState. Smith exited the car and told Jones and Fish to wait in the car. As Smith walked toward the front of the residence, he yelled to the occupants inside, "You got some weed?" "Yeah," Raynard Jenkins replied from inside the residence. Jenkins greeted Smith at the door and asked him, "What you got?" Smith pulled out a Ruger SP101 .357 Magnum and shot Jenkins in the chest at point-blank range.
As Jenkins was falling toward the ground, Bob Marshall, a local drug dealer, jumped up from the corner of the couch, dropped a large bag of cocaine on the floor, and ran into the kitchen and out the back door. Smith chased Marshall, shot at him twice, but missed him. Smith ran back to the car and yelled to Jones, "Punch it! He tried to smoke (kill) me." The group sped away in a brown Ford Taurus, but were pulled over by Deputy R. W. Dunn approximately five miles from the scene. After coming to a complete stop, Jones threw the gun onto the rear floorboard of the car, next to Fish.
Deputy Dunn approached the car, asked the men to exit the car, and detained them to await another officer's arrival. When the officer was brought to the location where the men were being detained, a witness who saw the shooting identified Jones as the shooter. Smith, Jones, and Fish were arrested, transported to the Roan County Sheriff's Office for additional questioning, and booked into jail on first-degree murder charges.
The Investigation . . .
State Bureau of Investigation (SBI) Special Agent (SA) Pete Moss arrived at the scene at 200 S. Railroad Street, Brysonton, Roan County, AnyState, with CSI and SBI SA April Pearson at 1:03 p.m. to assist the Sheriff's Office with investigating the murder of Jenkins and the attempted murder of Marshall. SA Pearson interviewed key witnesses who lived in the immediate area within proximity of the crime scene, while SA Moss began drafting a search warrant. Although the Sheriff's Office had secured the scene around the house, SA Pearson secured an additional larger area that extended into the street. Both the interior and exterior barriers were secured with crime.

April 1986, the body of a 15-year-old girl has been found in woods.docx
April 1986, the body of a 15-year-old girl has been found in woods near a railway line in Surrey. She has been raped and strangled. The murder has startling similarities to another, of a young woman four months earlier near a railway line in northeast London.
At its initial stages I don't think anyone envisioned just how big it was going to be. It was only as the investigation progressed over the last two, two and one half years that the magnitude of it all unfolded.
The police were on the killer's trail, but it would take a new investigative technique to help unlock the case. Criminal profiling, a technique that would later prove controversial in the famous unsolved murder of Rachel Nickell.
In February 2001, the last piece of a jigsaw, that had tormented police for nearly 20 years, finally fell into place. David Mulcahy was found guilty at the Old Bailey of 15 counts, three of murder, the rest of rape and conspiracy to rape. He was convicted largely because of the evidence of one man, his former friend and accomplice in the rapes and murders, John Duffy. That's how the story ended.
But it began 20 years before, in 1982, with the rape of a young woman near Hampstead Heath. The victim described being attacked and raped by two men with knives. Over the next four years there were to be more such rapes.
Here is one of the gaps that was used to take the victims up onto the heath. Once onto the heath, they were then taken-- and one in particular-- something like one quarter of one mile over into the heath, through the woodland into a park, where only the attackers would have known that park was. It wasn't spontaneous onto any piece of [INAUDIBLE] ground. They had reconnoitered the area well and truly. They knew the area, and it was planned, in short, like a military operation.
All the rapes had a pattern. And to catch the rapists the police would turn to what, in Britain, was a relatively new investigative technique, criminal profiling. It was the FBI that really put criminal profiling on the map. In the 1970s, at their new Academy in Quantico, Virginia, the FBI began to use psychology to help solve crime and catch criminals. One of its pioneers was Robert Ressler.
Criminal profiling is creating a behavioral composite of a person who has committed a crime, where that person is not known. It give the age, a race, a sex, and various demographics about that individual that would portray him psychologically in such a way that it would aid the investigators in identifying a logical suspect.
Criminal profiling is the application of psychological or behavioral expertise to understand, investigate, and interrupt violent or violence-prone individuals. In the United States we use a couple of different terms for it. We call it criminal profiling, we also call it criminal investigative analysis, or crime-specific consultation. Profiling is the most common term that we use, though.
Profiling begins with information gathering. Information from the crim.
The True Timeline Behind The People vs. O.J. Simpson
What really happened during the O.J Simpson trial? Instant Checkmate presents a timeline of true events — from the moment the bodies of Nicole Brown and Ron Goldman were discovered to the controversial verdict.

OJ Simpson was an American football legend After his Hall.pdf
O.J. Simpson was an American football legend. After his Hall of Fame playing career, he
maintained his celebrity status by acting in movies, commercials, and working as an analyst on
NBC Football broadcasts. For these, and many other reasons, the murder of his wife, Nicole
Simpson, and a friend, Ron Goldman, in June 1994 dominated the news for more than a year. The
trial, which lasted nearly a year, was broadcast live on television. There were several key pieces of
evidence linking Simpson to the crime, among which was the presence of a bloody glove behind
Simpsons Rockingham estate, which was found by LAPD detective Mark Fuhrman. The glove
matched one found at the scene of the crime and videos from NBC football broadcast showed
Simpson wearing the same type of gloves in the past. Aside from this, blood in Simpsons car and
house matched blood at the scene and, as the prosecution pointed out at trial, Simpson had a
history of abuse toward his wife. Despite this evidence, Simpson was found not guilty. During the
trial, the defense lawyer, Alan Dershowitz, refuted the relevance of Simpsons previous abuse by
claiming that only one in a thousand abusive husbands eventually murder their wives. In other
words, Dershowitz suggested that the chance that Simpson was guilty of the crime was quite
small, only 1 in 1000; therefore, no reasonable person should find him guilty based on this
evidence alone. 1. Is Dershowitzs claim only one in a thousand abusive husbands eventually
murder their wives relevant in this instance? If yes, explain why. If not, explain why not. In 1994,
there were about 100 million women in the United States, of which 5000 women were murdered,
1500 by their husbands. Further, crime statistics reveal that about two-thirds of the women who
are murdered by their husbands are abused by them prior to their murder, and that about 1% of all
other women are abused by their husbands. Based on these data, 2. Calculate the probability that,
if a woman is abused, her husband will murder her. Is your answer consistent with the statistic
cited by Dershowitz? 3. Calculate the probability that, if an abused woman gets murdered, her
husband is the murderer..

1-Racism:
Consider the two films shown in class "Night and Fog", and "Mr. Tanimoto's Journey". What do you think are the salient similarities, if any? What are the crucial differences? Why?
2- Slavery New & Old
Bales notes that New Slavery is very different from Old Slavery. What are some of the differences he describes? What are the links between New Slavery and the Globalized Economy?
Bales also notes that there are things we each can do to end slavery, but that this requires taking a "very dispassionate look at slaves as a commodity" (Bales 250). Why?
Finally, he suggests that activism without a broad-based explanatory framework is worse than none at all. Why does he think so? Do you agree? Why or why not?
3- Human- The Film
How, if at all, does the film "Human" resonate with or reflect themes explored in What Matters? Which of the characters was most compelling to you, and why?
4- Culture and Power Create Scarcity
Recognize that power and culture are inseparable, one does not exist without the other, and currently the dominant form of culture is based upon industrial production requiring essentially infinite energy supplies – which do not in fact exist. So we collectively face a terrible problem. And yet the greatest burden of this problem is being borne by those least able to do anything about it, while at the same time those who benefit most from the economic inequalities imposed by the culture of industrial production and imposed scarcity are unwilling or unable to recognize that things cannot continue as they are. This is our dilemma; one we must solve now or ignore and risk facing unimaginable chaos later.
Concerned about the ultimate implications of his theories about space, time and energy, Einstein pointed out that 20th century problems would never be solved by 19th century thinking. Indeed, by the same token, 21st century problems will not be solved with 20th century thinking either. The same can be said for oversimplified false dichotomies between 'conservatives' and 'liberals' and particularly 'capitalism' and 'communism'. The latter pair of binary opposites are 19th century ideas while the former are legacies of the 20th century.
We are well beyond the political and economic circumstances that informed such artificially limited conceptualizations of the human condition in many, many ways. And yet, these same tired inaccurate philosophical cages are still supposed to encompass the almost infinite variety and subtleties of contemporary global and local political economies? This is essentially the problem Einstein was concerned with when he noted the conceptual poverty of such willed ignorance. Our technological capacity has outstripped our cultural mechanisms of maintaining social control (consider greed: how much is enough?) and exacerbated our ability to impose physically violent solutions to complex and entirely negotiable problems. Our challenge now is to reassert the primacy of compassion and respect for differenc.

Enamel fluorosis is a hypomineralization of the
enamel caused by the ingestion of an amount of
fluoride that is above optimal levels during
enamel formation.1,2 Clinically, the appearance of
enamel fluorosis can vary. In its mildest form, it
appears as faint white lines or streaks visible
only to trained examiners under controlled exam-
ination conditions. In its pronounced form, fluo-
rosis manifests as white mottling of the teeth in
which noticeable white lines or streaks often
have coalesced into larger opaque areas.2,3 Brown
staining or pitting of the enamel also may be
present.2,3 In its most severe form, actual break-
down of the enamel may occur.2,3
In recent years, there has been an increase in
the prevalence of children seen with enamel fluo-
A B S T R A C T
Background. Few studies have evaluated the
impact of specific fluoride sources on the prevalence of
enamel fluorosis in the population. The author con-
ducted research to determine attributable risk percent
estimates for mild-to-moderate enamel fluorosis in two
populations of middle-school–aged children.
Methods. The author recruited two groups of
children 10 to 14 years of age. One group of 429 had
grown up in nonfluoridated communities; the other
group of 234 had grown up in optimally fluoridated
communities. Trained examiners measured enamel
fluorosis using the Fluorosis Risk Index and meas-
ured early childhood fluoride exposure using a ques-
tionnaire completed by the parent. The author then
calculated attributable risk percent estimates, or the
proportion of cases of mild-to-moderate enamel fluo-
rosis associated with exposure to specific early fluo-
ride sources, based on logistic regression models.
Results. In the nonfluoridated study sample,
sixty-five percent of the enamel fluorosis cases were
attributed to fluoride supplementation under the pre-
1994 protocol. An additional 34 percent were
explained by the children having brushed more than
once per day during the first two years of life. In the
optimally fluoridated study sample, 68 percent of the
enamel fluorosis cases were explained by the children
using more than a pea-sized amount of toothpaste
during the first year of life, 13 percent by having
been inappropriately given a fluoride supple.

1-Experiences with a Hybrid Class: Tips And Pitfalls
College Teaching Methods & Styles Journal, 2006, Vol.2(2), p.9-12
Notes
This paper will discuss the author's experiences with converting a traditional classroom-based course to a hybrid class, using a mix of traditional class time and web-support. The course which was converted is a lower-level human relations class, which has been offered in both the traditional classroom-based setting and as an asynchronous online course. After approximately five years of offering the two formats independently, the author decided to experiment with improving the traditional course by adopting more of the web-based support and incorporating more research and written assignments in "out of class" time. The course has evolved into approximately 60% traditional classroom meetings and 40% assignments and other assessments out of class. The instructor's assessment of the hybrid nature of the class is that students are more challenged by the mix of research and writing assignments with traditional assessments, and the assignments are structured in such a way as to make them more "customizable" for each student. Each student can find some topics that they are interested in to pursue in greater depth as research assignments. However, the hybrid nature of the class has resulted in an increased workload for the instructor. The course has been well received by the students, who have indicated that they find the hybrid format appealing.

Notes
The goal of this study is to understand if there are any variations regarding student engagement and course outcomes based on the course format. A new course format was introduced in fall of 2006 that involves a hybrid approach (large lecture with small recitations) with a higher level of student enrollment than traditional research methods courses. During the same time frame, the discipline maintained its traditional research methods courses as well. A survey was administered to all students enrolled in research methods regardless of course format in fall 2006 and spring 2007. Student responses are discussed, including information concerning the preparation, design, cost and benefits of offering a hybrid research methods course format.

Here’s What Happened . . .
Around 12:00 p.m. on September 13, 2004, Fred Smith walked across the road to Bill Jones's house to ask for a ride. Although it was almost fall, it was still very hot outside and Smith needed to pick up money in a neighboring town. Smith didn't want to walk from Centervale to Roan County, so he offered to pay Jones $20.00 for gas and his time to drive Smith to pick up his money. Jones accepted Smith's offer; however, Jones told Smith that he had to pick up a friend at a car repair shop along the way. Jones and Smith drove to Thrifty Repair Shop and picked up Jones's friend, Roger Fish. Fish was not in a hurry that day, so he agreed to ride with the pair to pick up Smith's money.
The trio arrived at 200 S. Railroad Street, Brysonton, Roan County, AnyState. Smith exited the car and told Jones and Fish to wait in the car. As Smith walked toward the front of the residence, he yelled to the occupants inside, "You got some weed?" "Yeah," Raynard Jenkins replied from inside the residence. Jenkins greeted Smith at the door and asked him, "What you got?" Smith pulled out a Ruger SP101 .357 Magnum and shot Jenkins in the chest at point-blank range.
As Jenkins was falling toward the ground, Bob Marshall, a local drug dealer, jumped up from the corner of the couch, dropped a large bag of cocaine on the floor, and ran into the kitchen and out the back door. Smith chased Marshall, shot at him twice, but missed him. Smith ran back to the car and yelled to Jones, "Punch it! He tried to smoke (kill) me." The group sped away in a brown Ford Taurus, but were pulled over by Deputy R. W. Dunn approximately five miles from the scene. After coming to a complete stop, Jones threw the gun onto the rear floorboard of the car, next to Fish.
Deputy Dunn approached the car, asked the men to exit the car, and detained them to await another officer's arrival. When the officer was brought to the location where the men were being detained, a witness who saw the shooting identified Jones as the shooter. Smith, Jones, and Fish were arrested, transported to the Roan County Sheriff's Office for additional questioning, and booked into jail on first-degree murder charges.
The Investigation . . .
State Bureau of Investigation (SBI) Special Agent (SA) Pete Moss arrived at the scene at 200 S. Railroad Street, Brysonton, Roan County, AnyState, with CSI and SBI SA April Pearson at 1:03 p.m. to assist the Sheriff's Office with investigating the murder of Jenkins and the attempted murder of Marshall. SA Pearson interviewed key witnesses who lived in the immediate area within proximity of the crime scene, while SA Moss began drafting a search warrant. Although the Sheriff's Office had secured the scene around the house, SA Pearson secured an additional larger area that extended into the street. Both the interior and exterior barriers were secu.

April 1986, the body of a 15-year-old girl has been found in woods.docx
April 1986, the body of a 15-year-old girl has been found in woods near a railway line in Surrey. She has been raped and strangled. The murder has startling similarities to another, of a young woman four months earlier near a railway line in northeast London.
At its initial stages I don't think anyone envisioned just how big it was going to be. It was only as the investigation progressed over the last two, two and one half years that the magnitude of it all unfolded.
The police were on the killer's trail, but it would take a new investigative technique to help unlock the case. Criminal profiling, a technique that would later prove controversial in the famous unsolved murder of Rachel Nickell.
In February 2001, the last piece of a jigsaw, that had tormented police for nearly 20 years, finally fell into place. David Mulcahy was found guilty at the Old Bailey of 15 counts, three of murder, the rest of rape and conspiracy to rape. He was convicted largely because of the evidence of one man, his former friend and accomplice in the rapes and murders, John Duffy. That's how the story ended.
But it began 20 years before, in 1982, with the rape of a young woman near Hampstead Heath. The victim described being attacked and raped by two men with knives. Over the next four years there were to be more such rapes.
Here is one of the gaps that was used to take the victims up onto the heath. Once onto the heath, they were then taken-- and one in particular-- something like one quarter of one mile over into the heath, through the woodland into a park, where only the attackers would have known that park was. It wasn't spontaneous onto any piece of [INAUDIBLE] ground. They had reconnoitered the area well and truly. They knew the area, and it was planned, in short, like a military operation.
All the rapes had a pattern. And to catch the rapists the police would turn to what, in Britain, was a relatively new investigative technique, criminal profiling. It was the FBI that really put criminal profiling on the map. In the 1970s, at their new Academy in Quantico, Virginia, the FBI began to use psychology to help solve crime and catch criminals. One of its pioneers was Robert Ressler.
Criminal profiling is creating a behavioral composite of a person who has committed a crime, where that person is not known. It give the age, a race, a sex, and various demographics about that individual that would portray him psychologically in such a way that it would aid the investigators in identifying a logical suspect.
Criminal profiling is the application of psychological or behavioral expertise to understand, investigate, and interrupt violent or violence-prone individuals. In the United States we use a couple of different terms for it. We call it criminal profiling, we also call it criminal investigative analysis, or crime-specific consultation. Profiling is the most common term that we use, though.
Profiling begins with information gathering. Information from the crim.
The True Timeline Behind The People vs. O.J. Simpson

OJ Simpson was an American football legend After his Hall.pdf
O.J. Simpson was an American football legend. After his Hall of Fame playing career, he
maintained his celebrity status by acting in movies, commercials, and working as an analyst on
NBC Football broadcasts. For these, and many other reasons, the murder of his wife, Nicole
Simpson, and a friend, Ron Goldman, in June 1994 dominated the news for more than a year. The
trial, which lasted nearly a year, was broadcast live on television. There were several key pieces of
evidence linking Simpson to the crime, among which was the presence of a bloody glove behind
Simpsons Rockingham estate, which was found by LAPD detective Mark Fuhrman. The glove
matched one found at the scene of the crime and videos from NBC football broadcast showed
Simpson wearing the same type of gloves in the past. Aside from this, blood in Simpsons car and
house matched blood at the scene and, as the prosecution pointed out at trial, Simpson had a
history of abuse toward his wife. Despite this evidence, Simpson was found not guilty. During the
trial, the defense lawyer, Alan Dershowitz, refuted the relevance of Simpsons previous abuse by
claiming that only one in a thousand abusive husbands eventually murder their wives. In other
words, Dershowitz suggested that the chance that Simpson was guilty of the crime was quite
small, only 1 in 1000; therefore, no reasonable person should find him guilty based on this
evidence alone. 1. Is Dershowitzs claim only one in a thousand abusive husbands eventually
murder their wives relevant in this instance? If yes, explain why. If not, explain why not. In 1994,
there were about 100 million women in the United States, of which 5000 women were murdered,
1500 by their husbands. Further, crime statistics reveal that about two-thirds of the women who
are murdered by their husbands are abused by them prior to their murder, and that about 1% of all
other women are abused by their husbands. Based on these data, 2. Calculate the probability that,
if a woman is abused, her husband will murder her. Is your answer consistent with the statistic
cited by Dershowitz? 3. Calculate the probability that, if an abused woman gets murdered, her
husband is the murderer..

How, if at all, does the film "Human" resonate with or reflect themes explored in What Matters? Which of the characters was most compelling to you, and why?
4- Culture and Power Create Scarcity
Recognize that power and culture are inseparable, one does not exist without the other, and currently the dominant form of culture is based upon industrial production requiring essentially infinite energy supplies – which do not in fact exist. So we collectively face a terrible problem. And yet the greatest burden of this problem is being borne by those least able to do anything about it, while at the same time those who benefit most from the economic inequalities imposed by the culture of industrial production and imposed scarcity are unwilling or unable to recognize that things cannot continue as they are. This is our dilemma; one we must solve now or ignore and risk facing unimaginable chaos later.
Concerned about the ultimate implications of his theories about space, time and energy, Einstein pointed out that 20th century problems would never be solved by 19th century thinking. Indeed, by the same token, 21st century problems will not be solved with 20th century thinking either. The same can be said for oversimplified false dichotomies between 'conservatives' and 'liberals' and particularly 'capitalism' and 'communism'. The latter pair of binary opposites are 19th century ideas while the former are legacies of the 20th century.
We are well beyond the political and economic circumstances that informed such artificially limited conceptualizations of the human condition in many, many ways. And yet, these same tired inaccurate philosophical cages are still supposed to encompass the almost infinite variety and subtleties of contemporary global and local political economies? This is essentially the problem Einstein was concerned with when he noted the conceptual poverty of such willed ignorance. Our technological capacity has outstripped our cultural mechanisms of maintaining social control (consider greed: how much is enough?) and exacerbated our ability to impose physically violent solutions to complex and entirely negotiable problems. Our challenge now is to reassert the primacy of compassion and respect for differenc.

Enamel fluorosis is a hypomineralization of the
enamel caused by the ingestion of an amount of
fluoride that is above optimal levels during
enamel formation.1,2 Clinically, the appearance of
enamel fluorosis can vary. In its mildest form, it
appears as faint white lines or streaks visible
only to trained examiners under controlled exam-
ination conditions. In its pronounced form, fluo-
rosis manifests as white mottling of the teeth in
which noticeable white lines or streaks often
have coalesced into larger opaque areas.2,3 Brown
staining or pitting of the enamel also may be
present.2,3 In its most severe form, actual break-
down of the enamel may occur.2,3
In recent years, there has been an increase in
the prevalence of children seen with enamel fluo-
A B S T R A C T
Background. Few studies have evaluated the
impact of specific fluoride sources on the prevalence of
enamel fluorosis in the population. The author con-
ducted research to determine attributable risk percent
estimates for mild-to-moderate enamel fluorosis in two
populations of middle-school–aged children.
Methods. The author recruited two groups of
children 10 to 14 years of age. One group of 429 had
grown up in nonfluoridated communities; the other
group of 234 had grown up in optimally fluoridated
communities. Trained examiners measured enamel
fluorosis using the Fluorosis Risk Index and meas-
ured early childhood fluoride exposure using a ques-
tionnaire completed by the parent. The author then
calculated attributable risk percent estimates, or the
proportion of cases of mild-to-moderate enamel fluo-
rosis associated with exposure to specific early fluo-
ride sources, based on logistic regression models.
Results. In the nonfluoridated study sample,
sixty-five percent of the enamel fluorosis cases were
attributed to fluoride supplementation under the pre-
1994 protocol. An additional 34 percent were
explained by the children having brushed more than
once per day during the first two years of life. In the
optimally fluoridated study sample, 68 percent of the
enamel fluorosis cases were explained by the children
using more than a pea-sized amount of toothpaste
during the first year of life, 13 percent by having
been inappropriately given a fluoride supple.

1-Experiences with a Hybrid Class: Tips And Pitfalls
College Teaching Methods & Styles Journal, 2006, Vol.2(2), p.9-12
Notes
This paper will discuss the author's experiences with converting a traditional classroom-based course to a hybrid class, using a mix of traditional class time and web-support. The course which was converted is a lower-level human relations class, which has been offered in both the traditional classroom-based setting and as an asynchronous online course. After approximately five years of offering the two formats independently, the author decided to experiment with improving the traditional course by adopting more of the web-based support and incorporating more research and written assignments in "out of class" time. The course has evolved into approximately 60% traditional classroom meetings and 40% assignments and other assessments out of class. The instructor's assessment of the hybrid nature of the class is that students are more challenged by the mix of research and writing assignments with traditional assessments, and the assignments are structured in such a way as to make them more "customizable" for each student. Each student can find some topics that they are interested in to pursue in greater depth as research assignments. However, the hybrid nature of the class has resulted in an increased workload for the instructor. The course has been well received by the students, who have indicated that they find the hybrid format appealing.

Notes
The goal of this study is to understand if there are any variations regarding student engagement and course outcomes based on the course format. A new course format was introduced in fall of 2006 that involves a hybrid approach (large lecture with small recitations) with a higher level of student enrollment than traditional research methods courses. During the same time frame, the discipline maintained its traditional research methods courses as well. A survey was administered to all students enrolled in research methods regardless of course format in fall 2006 and spring 2007. Student responses are discussed, including information concerning the preparation, design, cost and benefits of offering a hybrid research methods course format.

The authors respond to both the general and specific con-
cerns raised in Fischer, Stein, and Heikkinen’s (2009)
commentary on their article (Steinberg, Cauffman, Wool-
ard, Graham, & Banich, 2009), in which they drew on
studies of adolescent development to justify the American
Psychological Association’s positions in two Supreme
Court cases involving the construction of legal age bound-
aries. In response to Fischer et al.’s general concern that
the construction of bright-line age boundaries is inconsis-
tent with the fact that development is multifaceted, variable
across individuals, and contextually conditioned, the au-
thors argue that the only logical alternative suggested by
that perspective is impractical and unhelpful in a legal
context. In response to Fischer et al.’s specific concerns
that their conclusion about the differential timetables of
cognitive and psychosocial maturity is merely an artifact of
the variables, measures, and methods they used, the au-
thors argue that, unlike the alternatives suggested by Fi-
scher et al., their choices are aligned with the specific
capacities under consideration in the two cases. The au-
thors reaffirm their position that there is considerable
empirical evidence that adolescents demonstrate adult lev-
els of cognitive capability several years before they evince
adult levels of psychosocial maturity.
Keywords: policy, science, adolescent development, chro-
nological age
In our article (Steinberg, Cauffman, Woolard, Graham,& Banich, 2009, this issue), we asked whether therewas scientific justification for the different positions
taken by the American Psychological Association (APA) in
two related Supreme Court cases—Hodgson v. Minnesota
(1990; a case concerning minors’ competence to make
independent decisions about abortion, in which APA ar-
gued that adolescents were just as mature as adults) and
Roper v. Simmons (2005; a case about the constitutionality
of the juvenile death penalty, in which APA argued that
adolescents were not as mature as adults). On the basis of
our reading of the extant literature in developmental psy-
chology, as well as findings from a recent study of our own,
we concluded that the capabilities relevant to judging in-
dividuals’ competence to make autonomous decisions
about abortion reach adult levels of maturity earlier than do
capabilities relevant to assessments of criminal culpability,
and that it was therefore reasonable to draw different age
boundaries between adolescents and adults in each in-
stance.

Reexamine the three topics you picked last week and summarized. Now, break out each case into a list of ethical and legal considerations that might help to analyze each case—summarize the considerations in two paragraphs for each case.
For each case, also ask one legal and one ethical question that might present. Consider the principles of ethics from Week 1 and the laws addressed this week. You should also use outside references to dig deeper into each case for your list.
3 topics identified in paper below from last week
· The Principal of Justice
· Autonomy
· Non-maleficence
Health Care Ethics
Health care ethics is a set of beliefs, moral principles and values that guide health care centers and related institutions to make choices with regard to medical care. Some health ethics include: respect for autonomy, justice and non-maleficence (Percival, 1849).
The principle of justice in health care ensures that there is respect for people’s rights, fair distribution of health resources and respect for laws that are morally acceptable. There are mainly two elements in this principle; equity and equality. Equity ensure that are all cases have equal access to treatment regardless of the patients’ status in ethnic background, age, sexuality, legal capacity, disability, insurance cover or any other discriminating factors.
It is important to study this ethical issue of justice since there have been an increasing report of doctors and medical staff failing to administer certain treatment services to certain kind of patients. Consequently, there have been debates in countries such as the UK over the refusal to give expensive treatment to patients who are likely to benefit from the treatment but cannot afford it. One ethical in the principle of justice is as to whether the health care center is creating an environment for sensible and fair use of health care resources and no particular type of patients are shun away or stigmatized. The legal question is whether the health care center is breaking the law against inequality and discrimination particularly racism, tribalism, gender insensitivity and other discrimination noted and prohibited in the country’s constitution.
The second area of health care ethics is respect for autonomy. Autonomy means self-determination or self-rule. Hence, this principle stipulates that one should be allowed to direct their health life according to their personal rationale. The patients have a right to determine their own destiny freely and independently as well as having their decision respected (Pollard, 1993).
This principle is important for study because not many people would not want to be treated as those with dementia; a disease involving loss of mental power. Many people are afraid of the prospect of not being able to decide their own fate and exercise self-determination. An ethical question in this principle of respect for autonomy is whether the health care center ensures that the patient is provided with ...

"What Is Freedom?": Reconstruction, 1865–1877
*
After the Civil War, freed slaves and white allies in the North and South attempted to redefine the meaning and boundaries of American freedom. Freedom, once for whites only, now incorporated black Americans. By rewriting laws, African-Americans, for the first time, would be recognized as citizens with equal rights and the right to vote, even in the South. Blacks created their own schools, churches, and other institutions. Though many of Reconstruction’s achievements were short-lived and defeated by violence and opposition, Reconstruction laid the basis for future freedom struggles.

Q: Chapter 15 includes a new comparative discussion on the aftermath of slavery in various Western Hemisphere societies. You see important commonalities in the struggle over land and labor in post-Emancipation societies. How do you situate the experiences of former slaves in the United States in this borrowed content.
A: Well, just as slavery was a hemispheric institution, so was emancipation. It’s useful for us in thinking about the aftermath of slavery in the United States, the Reconstruction era and after to see what happened to other slaves in places where slavery was abolished. What you see is a similar set of issues and conquests taking place everywhere slaves desire land of their own—this is the No. 1 thing, they want autonomy, they want independence from white control. All of these regions are agricultural, everywhere former slaves demand land. In some places they get land fairly effectively, like in Jamaica, West Indies, where there’s a lot of unoccupied land they can take. In some places they don’t, but that battle to who’s going to have access to land and economic resources is a commonality in the aftermath of slavery. So too is the effort of local plantation owners trying to get the plantation going again and to force slaves to work back on the plantations, or if not, to bring labor from somewhere else—in the West Indies they bring workers from China, from India, from southeast Asia to replace slaves who were moving off on land of their own. They can’t quite do that in the United States—they tried to bring ...
Record, Jeffrey. The Mystery Of Pearl Harbor. Military History 2.docx
Record, Jeffrey. "The Mystery Of Pearl Harbor." Military History 28.5 (2012): 28-39.Academic Search Complete. Web. 10 Dec. 2013.
According to the article "The Mystery of Pearl Harbor," it briefly examines the reason why Japan starts a war with the United States. On December 7th, 1941, Japan with about 182 aircrafts from the first assault invade U.S. Pacific fleet of Pearl Harbor. Japan's ultimate goal was to overthrow East Asia. The main point of this article is mainly for Japan's goal for economic security and determined to achieve their goal to conquer East Asia. Moreover, they wouldn't let U.S. stop them. Japan was humiliated to be dependent on the United States, including American imported oil. Ultimately, they fought a war that could not won since U.S. was more superior. United States outproduce Japan in every category of ammunition and armaments. If someone were to ask me what this article was about, I would say that this article is an inevitable defeat from Japan.
I believe this source was definitely helpful. This article made me realize how important Pearl Harbor is. If anything, we could have lost to the Japanese and everything would change. Personally, I believe our army played a significant role during the war between Japan and United States. I believe that this source is reliable. This source can be slightly biased because in the article, it says “If the Pacific War was inevitable, was not Japan's crushing defeat as well? If so, then why did Japan start a war that, as British strategist Colin Gray has argued, it "was always going to lose?”
This article can clearly be used for a American history classes. Several of the first paragraphs include a clear understanding and a great topic for students to discuss. This would benefit students who does not know anything about Pearl Harbor. This would be appropriate for students to realize what America has been through during the 1940’s. I admit I now have a better understanding of Pearl Harbor, this article enhanced my perspective and changed the way I view it.
Hanyok, Robert J. "The Pearl Harbor Warning That Never Was." Naval History 23.2 (2009): 50-53. Academic Search Complete. Web. 11 Dec. 2013.
This article particularly argues that Americans believe that the surprising attack from Japan Navy planes could not have happened without some sort of conspiracy or warning. Without a doubt, Americans thought that U.S. political and military leaders kept this serious warning from Pearl Harbor’s commanders. Furthermore, the National Security Agency Documentary, “West Wind Clear seemed to be not found. Robert Hanyok’s attempted to clear up the issue and as a result, the warning for the chief Navy doe- breaker was just a figment of his imagination.
I believe that this article offers reliable sources. Hanyok provides source documents for historical scholars and researchers. This article was extremely helpful due to the controversy with the “West Wind Clear. The goal of this article was basically des ...

Case Study 2
The “Holt Lunsford Commercial” Case
Read the “Holt Lunsford” case study and answer the below questions. Please submit your write up as a Word file labeled as well as your calculations in an Excel file You are required to write at least 3 pages (font: 12; line spacing: 2).
· Based on the information provided in the case study, do you recommend Staton Tees to remain in the Welch building, irrespective of financing method, or relocate to a newly built facility in a different location? Discuss your rationale based on considerations, for example, with regard to the long-term strategy, operational needs of the firm and property market conditions.
· Assuming that Staton Tees decides to remain in the Welch building, which financing method should they choose? To make your recommendations, discuss
1) Strategic considerations with regard to the financing options.
2) Financial considerations by conducting a (simplified) DCF for each financing option:
· Use the information provided in the case study and following the outline of the lease vs. buy analysis in the textbook (page 62 to 65).
· Lease option: Assume a 10-year NNN lease with occupancy cost of $4.5 per SF ($3/SF rent; operating expenses of $1.5/SF) and a 3% inflation adjustment every 3 years. There are no initial transaction costs related with leasing.
· Buy option: Assume a purchase price of $4,048,300 purchase price and short-term debt financing with a 75% LTV mortgage (2% closing costs) at 4.5% interest only for 5 years. The going out cap rate is 7.5% and 2% closing costs occur at the time of sale.
· Staton Tees’ pre-tax required rate of return is 20% (opportunity cost). Assume a discount rate of 10%.
· Staton Tees does not account for the impact of depreciation and interest expenses on taxable income. Without calculating it, briefly discuss how accounting for tax savings could impact the decision to lease vs. buy.

Reasons for Not Evaluating
Reasons from McCain, D. V. (2005). Evaluation basics. Arlington, VA: ASTD Press, pp. 14-16.
Below are reasons to not evaluate, but there are things you can do to overcome these reasons!
· Click Edit (upper right on the tool bar) to get into edit mode.
· Add at least 2 ideas to the page to overcome one or more of these reasons for not evaluating. Please explain in enough detail that someone reading this wiki will be able to understand it!
· Add your name in parenthesis after your idea so we know who contributed which idea!
· Click Save (upper right on tool bar) to save your changes.
1. Evaluation requires a particular skill set.
· Doing evaluation requires no particular skill. It only requires a desire to look into it a course or program and ask the right questions that would answer the whether or not the course was effective. There are many tools that would help in doing an evaluation. (D. Clark)
· Skills can be learned. Learning to evaluate is simply another avenue of training. If the skills to evaluate do not exist in your organization then the training may need to start at the Trainer level before moving on to more organizational specific training, (D Casper)
2. Evaluation is not a priority.
· In order to make progress in any learning environment, it is necessary to initiate check points and measurements producing an evaluation of knowledge (Valle)
· Evaluation is never a priority until things are going bad and the reason is not clear, Evaluation helps us understand where the issues are. (Jim K)
3. Evaluation is not required.
· Currently, as students we are being evaluated to check in our progress ion order to measure our understanding of the tasks given. We get a grade, it is required for this course.(Valle)
· Why are you only providing what is required? Why not go a little further and make the training better? (J. Sprague)
4. Evaluation can result in criticism.
· In order to grow as a person or a company we all need criticism, of course this needs presented in a positive light and in a way that people can learn and grow. (Jim K)
· In today's culture where everybody gets a trophy or everybody gets an "A" no matter how they perform it is not "PC" to criticize someone and hurt their feelings! Criticism is what motivated me to succeed and go beyond just what is normal! We need to stop equating "Criticism" with "Fault Finding" and realize we do more harm than good by not pointing out shortcomings and errors. (D Casper)
5. You can't measure training.
· In my place of work in the industry, we had to measure training. Time was spent in educating employees into new ways to create a product, cost effectiveness, supply management chain and distribution. Measuring effectiveness of the training was in direct correlation with the success of the given product into market.(Valle)
· You can always measure whether or not the training was successful. The key is to look for the right types of measurements. It may be measured ...

Recognize Strengths and Appreciate Differences
Personality Dimensions® is the latest evolution in presenting Personality Temperament Theory. It builds on research conducted in Canada over a period or two decades, and the foundations established by the work of Carl Jung, David Keirsey, Linda Berens, as well as a history of Temperament that spans 25 centuries.
The Personality Dimensions® system utilizes a convenient card sort and short questionnaire to reveal personality preferences. In addition to being the first Temperament assessment to incorporate the Introversion/Extraversion dichotomy, Personality Dimensions® also uses four colours along with short descriptors and symbols to represent the Temperament preferences: Inquiring Green, Organized Gold, Authentic Blue, Resourceful Orange. These combined aspects create a common language of understanding with a high level of retention.Know your Personality Dimensions to...

· Identify potential problems early
· Elevate morale and enthusiasm
· Optimize team performance
· Support and encourage others
· Organize efficient teams
· Yield higher productivity

Analyzing Personality Demensions:
Introverts:
· Tend to get their energy by spending some time alone.
· Prefer to think things through in their head before sharing their ideas with the larger group. They will often listen to other ideas, conversations and reactions, taking it all in, digesting it and then share their thoughts and ideas with the larger group. By the time they share an idea it has been given a lot of consideration -- they are not just thinking out loud.
· Learn best when they have the time for quiet reflection and are able to work on their own.
· May actually find that the standard brainstorming process shuts down their creative juices as it does not allow them the time they need to internally process information before building on it or reacting to it.
· Often prefer to keep their thoughts and feelings to themselves until they are totally comfortable with the people they will be sharing them with.
· Have a tendency to think through the consequences of a situation before acting.
· Preferred mode of problem solving is to have some quiet time alone to think, reflect on the situation and formulate a solution. They often become energized by this process.
· Project a sense of quiet and calmness. Their body language and tone of voice tends to be softer.
· Tend to have a small circle of people who they call true friends. These are people with whom they are comfortable and are willing to share their thoughts and feelings with.
What causes an Introvert stress at work
Introverts tend to like things to be quieter than Extraverts. A noisy work environment can cause real stress for an Introvert.
They can find it exhausting to work with Extraverts. If an Introvert has to work in situations ...

Real-World Decisions
Read the following scenarios, which represent real-world decisions, and respond to each in 150 to 200 words.
Scenario One
You are the director of production at a multinational company. Your position is in Tokyo, Japan. Recently, this division experienced production quota problems. You determine that you must identify a team leader who will lead the work team to tackle the problem. You identify several possible team leaders, including Joan, a manager who is an expatriate US citizen and has recently arrived in your company’s Japanese office. You are also aware of Bob, a European national who has worked at the facility for about a year. His experience includes reengineering production processes at one of the company’s production facilities in Europe. The final candidate is Noriko, a Japanese national who has been at the facility for several years.
Questions
The team you assemble is composed of American expatriates and Japanese nationals. Compare the three candidates for the position. Based on cultural norms and traditions, what cultural factors and management styles may benefit or present obstacles for others on the team? Explain.
Response
Scenario Two
You have been assigned to an overseas position with your company. The local government of the host country offers gifts periodically to senior management as a way of thanking them for opening a facility and employing locals. These gifts include cash or merchandise into the thousands of dollars. Typically, to refuse a gift is considered an insult. Your country’s policy is to prohibit employees from accepting anything from clients and customers of more than $50. Your employer values its relationship with the host country and government officials, and it intends to continue operating in the venue.
Questions
How would you address a situation where you are presented with a gift of more than $50? Explain your rationale. How could your actions affect your company? How could your decision affect your working relationship with your company’s and the host country’s officials?
Response
Scenario Three
Christine, the leading expert in information technology (IT) organizational design, works for a large consulting firm and has been asked to work on a temporary assignment in Saudi Arabia. One of her firm’s biggest revenue-generating customers is embarking on an initiative to redesign the IT structure to improve efficiency and effectiveness, and to align the business unit’s output with the organization’s strategic objectives. The customer has read research reports and articles Christine has published, and the chief executive officer has asked Christine to handle this project. She is excited about the professional challenge of the assignment, but she is unsure of adopting customs and practices in a Muslim country.
Questions
Discuss the ethical considerations for Christine and her company. What implications m ...

“The American Dream: Not Dead –Yet
By Carl M. Cannon and Tom Bevan
March 6, 2019
Solid pluralities of Americans think their country is heading in the wrong direction, have lost faith in its prominent public institutions, and believe both major political parties are an impediment to realizing the American Dream. Nonetheless, that dream persists – threatened, yes, but not nearly dead.
These are the findings in the latest poll from RealClear Opinion Research, focusing on how Americans view their future possibilities and how much economic guidance and oversight should be provided by government. The answers provide a road map for the 2020 election season.
Nearly four times as many respondents say the American Dream is “alive and well” for them personally (27 percent) as those who say it’s “dead” (7 percent). The overwhelming majority express a more nuanced outlook. Two-thirds of those surveyed believe the American Dream is under moderate to severe duress: 37 percent say it is “alive and under threat” while another 28 percent say it is “under serious threat, but there is still hope.”
“In this poll, most people are telling us that the American Dream isn’t working as they believe it should be,” said John Della Volpe, polling director of RealClear Opinion Research. “The overwhelming number of people are not seeing the fruits of working hard, whether it’s through a professional (finances) or a personal (happiness) lens.”
The panel of 2,224 registered voters was probed for its views on other foundational aspects of 21st century American civic life, including their views of capitalism and socialism, and how they see the future unfolding for the younger generation of Americans.
Asked, for example, whether the American Dream is alive for those under 18 years of age, the attitudes were decidedly pessimistic -- especially among Baby Boomers and the so-called Silent Generation (Americans born between the mid-1920 and mid-1940s), those who have been in control of our public and private institutions for decades. While 23 percent of Baby Boomers and Silent Generation voters say the American Dream is alive for them (already the lowest percentage among all age groups) only 15 percent say they believe it will be there for the next generation.
Measuring attitudes about the American Dream means different things to different people. For this survey, RealClear Opinion Research defined it for the poll respondents by using Merriam-Webster’s dictionary, which describes the American Dream as “a happy way of living that can be achieved by anyone in the U.S. especially by working hard and becoming successful.”
As one would expect, perceptions of the health of this idea differ by party, age, education and class. Among the most striking findings in the survey were the variances by ethnicity. Asian-Americans are the most likely to say the American Dream is working for them (41 percent) – twice the percentage as Hispanics. Despite such differences, ...

Operation Blue Star - Saka Neela Tara
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

The evidence located by crime scene investigators was a melted guitar pick belonging to Simmons and his autograph. Despite physical evidence pointing to the lead singer of the rock band he was not the killer. Days after the groupie was murdered a member of the band, Lex was also murdered. This murder could not be connected to Simmons or any other suspect. When Lex is murdered the CSI focused in on his estranged daughter for the crime (CBS, 2014).

When there is no physical evidence introduced in a trial the jury is more hesitant to convict on circumstantial evidence only. This makes it harder for prosecutors to do their job and allows more guilty offenders to go free.
