Part I
The Uniform Crime Reports page on the FBI government Web site provides links for their annual
Crime in the United States
publications. Before you are able to view one of these reports, you are given the following disclaimer:
Caution Against Ranking
Each year when
Crime in the United States
is published, some entities use reported figures to compile rankings of cities and counties. These rough rankings provide no insight into the numerous variables that mold crime in a particular town, city, county, state, or region. Consequently, they lead to simplistic and/or incomplete analyses that often create misleading perceptions adversely affecting communities and their residents. Valid assessments are possible only with careful study and analysis of the range of unique conditions affecting each local law enforcement jurisdiction.
The data user is, therefore, cautioned against comparing statistical data of individual reporting units from cities, metropolitan areas, states, or colleges or universities solely on the basis of their population coverage or student enrollment.
Why do you think this cautionary notice is given before users are directed to the FBI's
Crime in the United States
publication? Expand on your viewpoint and find credible sources to support your rationale.

PART II Comparisons Choose one of the three pairs of theorists.docx
PART II Comparisons
Choose one
of the three pairs of theorists below. Explain how their ideas compare with each other. What are the similarities or continuities? What are the differences? Are they compatible? You should demonstrate that you know what each concept is on its own and attempt to draw comparisons as best you can. Your answer should be about 500-600 words but it is most important than you take the time to formulate a thesis and back it up by making clear and concise comparisons in a well-organized manner.
D. Marx and Weber
Compare and contrast the way that Marx and Weber describe life under the division of labor and the capitalist mode of production. Compare how they both see it as a controlling power that subordinates people to its requirements. How similar are they? Are there any differences to how they see this issue? Look especially at how Marx discusses the “general formula for capital” in
Capital
and how Weber discusses rationalization and the iron cage at the end of
The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism
.
E. Weber and Durkheim
Compare the ways that Weber and Durkheim discuss social stratification. Towards the end of his discussion of “Classes, Status Groups and Parties,” Weber addresses the way the division, grouping and inequality of people on the basis of their economic position in the market affects the social position of status groups, especially when discussing castes and privileges of social ranks. How do markets and individual competition affect the social privileges of status groups? How does this compare with Durkheim’s discussion of caste in the section on the “Forced Division of Labor”? How does caste conflict with the spontaneous distribution of people into occupations?
F. Durkheim and Marx
Both Marx and Durkheim discuss the relation of individual development to the development of the species as a whole through the development of the division of labor. They both agree that the division of labor confers benefits on the species. They may differ on some of the details. Compare and contrast Marx’s and Durkheim’s discussion of the fate of individual and the species as it relates to the division of labor, specialization and the dangers of fragmentation. Look at Marx’s discussion of “Alienated Labor” (and perhaps some parts of the
German Ideology
) and Durkheim’s discussion in the “Anomic Division of Labor” and his “Conclusion” in
The Division of Labor in Society
. How do their views on specialization and human development differ?

Part IAnswer in 100 words or moreCopyright laws are changing as.docx
Part I
Answer in 100 words or more:
Copyright laws are changing as digital sound, image, and video technologies evolve and become easier to use. Although the courts seem to clearly hold that it is illegal to copy media for profit, they are not as clear about the acceptability of modifications. For example, video editing software makes it relatively simple for people to clip out parts of movies they find to be objectionable for themselves or their children. Should it be legal to do so for personal use? What if an organization wanted to rent out such edited copies? What if DVD players and movies were set up so that the devices would edit and display the revised version on the fly? After you consider your own opinion, you might check the Web to see the latest information about this issue.
PART II:
Suppose that there was a nationwide database of electronic medical records, with strong security to try to prevent unauthorized access. What would be the benefits and costs of such a system? Apply the “paramedic method” to analyzing this subject.

PART I: Narrative on Personal Experience on an Article in UDHR
Article 7: All are equal before the law and are entitled without any discrimination to equal protection of the law. All are entitled to equal protection against any discrimination in violation of this Declaration and against any incitement to such discrimination.
Seattle MEPS attack in 2011
Seattle MEPS attack in 2011 happened when I was still in middle school. The attack did not take place as scheduled as the law enforcement was able to contain it even before it took place. My childhood friend Rahma used to offer me company and we spent much of the time together. Bearing in mind we were in the same school. It was not hard to find each other together. When the news was passed that the potential MEPS attackers were Islamic radicals, things changed around our area especially for Rahma. That very evening after school, she stayed indoors without much chatting online. Days following that, most people were giving the family suspicious looks and even some kids teased her at school. Rahma was a Muslim and just like fellow female believers, she had hijab always. This was and still is a mark that was used to identify Muslims. She was born of a Syrian father and Lebanese mother who met after moving to States.
The parents were citizens and so was she but her family got a lot of backslash for being a Muslim. If it’s not the kids picking her at school, it’s the rest who used to give her the looks that are suspicious. The MEPS attack was all over the news and for Muslim families it was hard for them. Rahma and I would still spend time together in school however, this was just a few days to summer break. Her family stayed indoors most of the time to avoid the nasty and unwelcoming looks as well as verbal unnecessary confrontation.
July was fast approaching but there was a bit of unrest around owing to the potential attacks. Bearing in mind it was directed at Federal facility, memories of similar attacks such as 911 would be revived in the media and online. At some point, graffiti writings of something like “Muslims are terrorists” were done on their garage door. The family thereafter left for a summer vacation to somewhere in New Jersey and their house sold a month after. I never heard from her again since they moved and her previous contacts online went unanswered. Discrimination drove the family away and our friendship was halted.
PART II: Question that arises when you look at the articles of the declaration in relation to one another
The Universal Declaration of Human Rights has covered human rights that should be observed by nations that subscribe to it. These rights cover various aspects of human life to ensure that each and every person’s dignity is effectively observed. However, a question can be raised on stipulations and application of one Article from a different one’s perspective. That means the application of one Article might raise questions from another’s perspective.

Part IAnswer in 100 words or moreCopyright laws are changing as.docx
Part I
Answer in 100 words or more:
Copyright laws are changing as digital sound, image, and video technologies evolve and become easier to use. Although the courts seem to clearly hold that it is illegal to copy media for profit, they are not as clear about the acceptability of modifications. For example, video editing software makes it relatively simple for people to clip out parts of movies they find to be objectionable for themselves or their children. Should it be legal to do so for personal use? What if an organization wanted to rent out such edited copies? What if DVD players and movies were set up so that the devices would edit and display the revised version on the fly? After you consider your own opinion, you might check the Web to see the latest information about this issue.
PART II:
Suppose that there was a nationwide database of electronic medical records, with strong security to try to prevent unauthorized access. What would be the benefits and costs of such a system? Apply the “paramedic method” to analyzing this subject.

PART I: Narrative on Personal Experience on an Article in UDHR
Article 7: All are equal before the law and are entitled without any discrimination to equal protection of the law. All are entitled to equal protection against any discrimination in violation of this Declaration and against any incitement to such discrimination.
Seattle MEPS attack in 2011
Seattle MEPS attack in 2011 happened when I was still in middle school. The attack did not take place as scheduled as the law enforcement was able to contain it even before it took place. My childhood friend Rahma used to offer me company and we spent much of the time together. Bearing in mind we were in the same school. It was not hard to find each other together. When the news was passed that the potential MEPS attackers were Islamic radicals, things changed around our area especially for Rahma. That very evening after school, she stayed indoors without much chatting online. Days following that, most people were giving the family suspicious looks and even some kids teased her at school. Rahma was a Muslim and just like fellow female believers, she had hijab always. This was and still is a mark that was used to identify Muslims. She was born of a Syrian father and Lebanese mother who met after moving to States.
The parents were citizens and so was she but her family got a lot of backslash for being a Muslim. If it’s not the kids picking her at school, it’s the rest who used to give her the looks that are suspicious. The MEPS attack was all over the news and for Muslim families it was hard for them. Rahma and I would still spend time together in school however, this was just a few days to summer break. Her family stayed indoors most of the time to avoid the nasty and unwelcoming looks as well as verbal unnecessary confrontation.
July was fast approaching but there was a bit of unrest around owing to the potential attacks. Bearing in mind it was directed at Federal facility, memories of similar attacks such as 911 would be revived in the media and online. At some point, graffiti writings of something like “Muslims are terrorists” were done on their garage door. The family thereafter left for a summer vacation to somewhere in New Jersey and their house sold a month after. I never heard from her again since they moved and her previous contacts online went unanswered. Discrimination drove the family away and our friendship was halted.
PART II: Question that arises when you look at the articles of the declaration in relation to one another
The Universal Declaration of Human Rights has covered human rights that should be observed by nations that subscribe to it. These rights cover various aspects of human life to ensure that each and every person’s dignity is effectively observed. However, a question can be raised on stipulations and application of one Article from a different one’s perspective. That means the application of one Article might raise questions from another’s perspective.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic Imperative
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdf
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
