These discussion questions are taken from your reading of chapters 1 through 4 in the text. Respond to one of the options discussion listed below. There are enough options that most people can answer a discussion question not answered by others. The goal is to cover all the topics to allow a wide coverage of the material. Option 1: You are called to investigate a death. Upon arrival you are told that you are the lead investigator. It is apparent that it is a homicide and that it occurred in a home. Describe in detail how you will go about processing the scene. Hint - begin with documenting your receipt of the call make sure you include the walk through of the scene and your approach. Then continue on with the assignments. Do this in step format so that it is clear how you are handling the scene. By this I mean that you must number your steps. That is: 1. Date and time call was received... 2...... 3...... .10. Date and time crime lab leaves scene... For illustration purposes I labeled the last step as (10). There may be more steps or fewer steps. Assume you have adequate staff to cover the tasks you assign. Lastly, in a comprehensive manner discuss why it is important to follow these steps. Option 2: Our text contains a list of common types of physical evidence. Let us do something different on this discussion board. Below is that list of physical evidence types. Select three of these categories of physical evidence THAT HAVE NOT BEEN SELECTED BY ANYONE ELSE IN THE CLASS. Describe a technique(s) to discover the existence of the evidence if it is not easily seen, and how that evidence would be collected and preserved. Collection is how the evidence is handled, picked up, and examined at the crime scene. Preservation is how the evidence is packaged to prevent contamination, loss, or alteration during transportation to and storage in the property/evidence room for later transportation to the crime laboratory. blood, semen, saliva documents drugs explosives fibers fingerprints firearms and ammunition glass hair impressions organs and physiological fluids paint petroleum products plastic bags plastic, rubber and other polymers powder residues serial numbers soil and minerals took marks vehicle lights wood and other vegetative matter Option 3: The crime scene search is a vital part of a criminal investigation. Select an existing home or office room to which you have access, but do not reveal its location. Identify the crime committed in that space, identify the search pattern you used to search it, and describe the room and any evidence found. Knowing the actual evidence of such a non-existing crime will not be there, you may state probable evidence to be found at such a crime and describe its condition and location. This will take some imagination but should be a fun exercise. Option 4: You are the first officer at the scene of an outdoor assault. You find the victim bleeding but conscious, with two of the victim's friends and se.

Essay Topics: The Loss of Individual Rights in 1984 : Personal privacy and space is never granted throughout 1984 . Every person is always subject to observation, even by their own family members and friends. Furthermore, since Big Brother is always watching and the Thought Police are always on the lookout, it is impossible for any kind of individualism to flourish. For this essay you can look at the ways this occurs and how various characters attempt (successfully or not) to subvert it. Then move out to consider how this lack of privacy (and by proxy, individualism) influences individuals and society as a whole in the present day. How does the present US Government subvert the rights of the individual and how does this compare to the novel? Fear of Technology : During WWII, technology was primarily developed for military purposes, specifically for the surveillance of the enemy. People are generally resistant to technology that they believe can be used against them. George Orwell’s novel 1984 plays on this inherent fear of technology. Discuss the role of technology in Oceania. In what areas is technology highly advanced, and in what areas has its progress stalled? Why? How is it used against the people? To control them? How does this reflect the human fear of technology during the time the novel was written? How does this fear carry over in the modern world? Is it valid? How can technology be used against the common man to violate individual rights? How does this compare to the novel? Historical Analysis :.

These are short answers to get you to think about design Note: You have to have watched both The Container and Things I Know to be True to do this assignment. Looking back on The Container, what type of stage space was it? Hint, it is not one of the 4 traditional types of theatres and how does the set designer play a role when one chooses this type of space. For The Container - look on DTP and go to the bottom of the page where they list artists credits, who was the set designer for this production (Note: in Europe many times one person designs multiple elements and then is listed simply as Designer vs Scene Designer)? Things I Know to be True , who is the set, lighting, costume and sound designers. Please list name and titles Pick one character from The Container or Things I Know to be True and analyze the costume, discuss the elements of costuming, (line, color, etc) and how it tells a story or represents the character in that production. Compare the lighting between The Container and Things I Know to be True. As you know from watching them, because of the theatre space decisions they are vastly difference. Look at realistism verse non realism. You can analyze color, direction, etc. How is the sound design different between The Container and Things I Know to be True ? Sound effects, music and underscoring? How does sound play a role in these productions? .

These are some ideas I came up with from the stories “Sweat” by Zora Neale Hurston from Carol Oates, Joyce, Ed. The Oxford Book of American Short Stories. Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1992. “Girl” by Jamaica Kincaid from Charters, Ann, Ed. The Story and its Writer: An Introduction to Short Fiction. 6th Ed. Boston: Bedford/St. Martin’s, 2003. Brainstorm: Fill in the prompts below as needed and copy/paste into the box of your BLOG entry. Essay #2Assignment: COMPARE and CONTRAST: “Girl” by Jamaica Kincaid and “Sweat” by Zora Neale Hurston In a 3 page essay COMPARE/CONTRAST two of the pieces above to develop a strong claim. The point of a compare/contrast essay is not to simply list similarities and differences between the two stories but to find a strong piece of insight that wouldn’t have been achieved if the two stories had been analyzed separately. To support your points, draw evidence from: · Source texts: Present evidence from both works. Quotes/Paraphrases/Summaries must be in “sandwich” form with an in-text citation to make a clear distinction between words/ideas in the text and your commentary/analysis. · Connections: Building off the in-class activity, how can you use the “text-to-self” or “text-to-text” connections to tell a story to prove a point through either a personal anecdote or real-world story? Brainstorm: Fill in the prompts below as needed and copy/paste into the box of your BLOG entry. For Essay #2, I am going to compare and contrast “Girl” by Jamaica Kincaid with “Sweat” by Zora Neale Hurston Since I will introduce the titles/authors in my introduction, my thesis will focus on stating a clear main claim.

These are questions and answers all of them have the right answers, I need you to paraphrase and shorten the answers as possible but not to lose the significant information. 2-Why do you suppose it is much easier to add tubulin to existing microtubules than to start a new microtubule from scratch? Explain how γ-tubulin in the centrosome helps to overcome this hurdle Two tubulin dimers have a lower affinity for each other (because of a more limited number of interaction sites) than a tubulin dimer has for the end of a microtubule (where there are multiple possible interaction sites, both end-to-end of tubulin dimers adding to a protofilament and side-to-side of the tubulin dimers interacting with tubulin subunits in adjacent protofilaments forming the ringlike cross section). Thus, to initiate a microtubule from scratch, enough tubulin dimers have to come together and remain bound to one another for long enough for other tubulin molecules to add to them. Only when a number of tubulin dimers have already assembled will the binding of the next subunit be favored. The formation of these initial “nucleating sites” is therefore rare and will not occur spontaneously at cellular concentrations of tubulin. Centrosomes contain preassembled rings of γ-tubulin (in which the γ-tubulin subunits are held together in much tighter side-to-side interactions than αβ-tubulin can form) to which αβ-tubulin dimers can bind. The binding conditions of αβ-tubulin dimers resemble those of adding to the end of an assembled microtubule. The γ-tubulin rings in the centrosome can therefore be thought of as permanently preassembled nucleation sites. 3- Dynamic instability causes microtubules either to grow or to shrink rapidly. Consider an individual microtubule that is in its shrinking phase. A. What must happen at the end of the microtubule in order for it to stop shrinking and to start growing again? The microtubule is shrinking because it has lost its GTP cap, i.e., the tubulin subunits at its end are all in their GDP-bound form. GTP-loaded tubulin subunits from solution will still add to this end, but they will be short-lived—either because they hydrolyze their GTP or because they fall off as the microtubule rim around them disassembles. If, however, enough GTP-loaded subunits are added quickly enough to cover up the GDPcontaining tubulin subunits at the microtubule end, a new GTP cap can form and regrowth is favored. B. How would a change in the tubulin concentration affect this switch? The rate of addition of GTP-tubulin will be greater at higher tubulin concentrations. The frequency with which shrinking microtubules switch to the growing mode will therefore increase with increasing tubulin concentration. The consequence of this regulation is that the system is self-balancing: the more microtubules shrink (resulting in a higher concentration of free tubulin), the more frequently microt.
