...Jack Bass, Accounting Professor Case 2 Keiser University ACG 5075 Dr. Gray May 17, 2011 Jack Bass A cheating situation occurred with Jack Bass, an accounting professor. Bass had given his students an exam and at the end asked them to identify any test items that had been graded incorrectly by the Scantron machine and submit it to the teaching assistant. After this Bass suspected that some had changed their answers. So, for the next exam, Bass made a copy of the students’ exams and asked them to do the same thing for identifying incorrect answers. After comparison of the copy and the resubmission it was discovered that some had changed their answers. Jack brought the situation to the dean and this resulted in those students withdrawing from the course and receiving sanction letter on their academic file. All the cheaters agreed to this accept one, D.R. Street III. His argument was that he misunderstood the directions and that he should be allowed to withdraw without a sanction letter. When the dean said no he had his father talk with the chancellor and ultimately he was allowed to withdraw without the sanction letter. Entrapment Jack Bass did not entrap his students by withholding the Scantron information from them. Cheating is a serious offence at any academic institution. Regardless of the situation, whether the cheater was caught off guard or not, cheating still occurred. Students are completely aware of the consequences of performing an act of academic dishonesty...

...butterflies in my stomach awoke and began fluttering about, and I felt the urge to turn and run off. In a dreamlike trance, I picked up my bass guitar and strapped it around my neck. A spotlight cut through the darkness and focused upon the stage, blinding me momentarily. I heard the drummer begin a four count. Suddenly the club came alive, and resounding music filled the Whisky-A-Go-Go, where twenty-five years earlier, The Doors had begun their musical career. An exhilarating sense of humility and wonder came over me as I thought, "How did I get here?" My career as a bass guitarist in a rock and roll band has had the greatest impact on my life. Playing in a band was important to me because it represented a challenge: transcending the familiar confines of my life and entering completely unknown territory. I wanted to meet people from different backgrounds and go to places that I might never have gone otherwise. The dark, mysterious atmosphere of a Hollywood night club was a far cry from the neat and tidy math and engineering classrooms I had been accustomed to. A year and a half before our appearance at the Whisky-A-Go-Go, bass guitar was about as familiar to me as Swahili. When I started playing, it was hard for me to believe that I would ever play for anyone outside of a garage, much less at a world-famous Hollywood club. I began playing bass at the age of twenty, with only a rudimentary knowledge of music theory. My only experience playing any kind of musical instrument was...

...there was a little jack rabbit that had tiny, tiny ears and little legs. His main problem was that he could hear or get around very easily. His home was under this big oak tree in the forest, it was very cool and it kept the rain from getting him all wet. Mr. Jack was very friendly; everyone in the forest was his friends even his common enemy; like the coyote. But out of all his friends there was this one that Mr. Jack would always turn to for help or questions that he wanted answers to. This friend live in the upper part of the tree, he was an owl named Hoot. So one night he just got back and he saw Hoot in the tree and he looked at him and said “ Hoot, why is it so hard for me to get around and so hard for me to hear I don’t get it; I know you can hear really well, and you get around great because you have wings”. Hoot was thinking and said “I don’t know how that works but that’s the way life goes, now get some sleep.” “Ok I will good night Hoot.” Later that night Jack was having dreams about actually having long legs and ears, he was so happy and excited that in the morning he woke up and had to tell Hoot. He was very happy for Jack, then it hit him what if I try to tug on Jacks ears and legs. Hoot thought it over very carefully and was thinking maybe that will really work. At least Jack would be happy if that really did happen because he never stops talking about his ears and legs getting longer. The next day he was tell Jack about his great plan, Jack got excited and said...

...The strongest always prevail over the weak; one example is World War 1. The stronger armies prevailed, while the weaker ones were destroyed. Golding in his novel, Lord of the Flies, argues that the strongest prevail over the weak. A couple of instances where this is demonstrated are when Jack makes his own group and everyone joins him because he’s stronger, nobody disobeys the stronger people because they are scared they will get hurt, and lastly Jacks group has stronger people so they take over Ralphs group. Firstly, one of the many scenes demonstrating that the stronger prevail over the weak is when Jack creates his own group. For example “Long before Ralph and Piggy came up with Jack’s lot” (164). This proves Golding’s argument that the stronger do in fact prevail over the weak considering everyone joined his group because he was physically stronger then Ralph. Secondly, another example that relates to Golding’s argument is when Samneric are too scared to leave Jack’s group because they are afraid that they will get hurt or killed. For example, Ralph said “Wont you come with me? Three of us- we’d stand a chance” and Samneric replied “‘You don’t know Roger. He’s a terror.’ ‘-and the Chief-they’re both-‘ ‘-terrors” (210). This once again proves Golding’s argument because Samneric were indeed too afraid to disobey the stronger leaders. Finally, the last instance where Golding shows that the stronger prevail over the weak is that Jack’s group had more people, and eventually...

...Through the usage of bitter diction, metaphor, and tender diction, King illustrates a gender dynamic granting men control in which Jack struggles to conform and Wendy is successful in following. By using resentful language, King indicates that as Jack deals with control, he tries but fails to obtain control. While speaking to Al on the phone, Jack thinks, but does not voice, “First Ullman, then Wendy, now Al. What was this? National Let’s Pick Jack Torrance Apart Week?” (275). Feeling hostile, Jack bitterly thinks to himself that everyone around him is “picking him apart,” a resentful way to mean criticizing him. As a stereotypical male, Jack is supposed to be regarded with authority, not belittled like he currently is. His inner resentment...

While Page and Plant dominated the stage, we edged over to the side to check out the drummer. Among those watching with me was Mark Ashton, curly haired stickman with the group Rare Bird. “He’s so fucking heavy!” Ashton shouted in my ear. We stared in disbelief at the aggressive, beefy guy who seemed intent on breaking the heads on his toms. 30 TRAPS TRAPSMAGAZINE.COM PREVIOUS PAGE PHOTO BY JAN PERSSONS/REDFERNS The first time I saw Bonham up close was in December 1968, at The Marquee Club on Soho’s Wardour Street. While The Marquee has long held a mythical status in the rich history of the London rock scene – hosting early appearances by such legendary bands as The Who and The Rolling Stones – it was actually a dark and rather cramped facility with a tiny stage that fronted an even stuffier dressing room. vividly remember the moment when a review copy of Led Zeppelin’s eponymous debut album arrived at the office. My colleague and fellow scribe Tony Wilson had secured the precious black vinyl LP and dropped it onto the turntable, awaiting...

...Other Archetypes We focus on the trickster or deceiver because her archetype ties directly to the ultimate quest of Mr. Incredible and his family. The deceit that Mirage commits is by enticing Bob, or Mr. Incredible, with a false quest of destroying a military weapon that has gone rogue. Her trickery is appealing to Mr. Incredible because it satisfies two of his main concerns. It satisfies his ability to care for his family financially and it also satisfies his desire to utilize his superhero abilities for what he believes is for the common good. The trickery or deceit archetype in this myth shows importance because it allows the viewers to see the vulnerability of the hero and later with success, shows how the hero is able to overcome the circumstance. Another female archetype in the myth is that of the mother or queen. Helen or Elastigirl, as she is known in the hero world is the matriarch or glue of The Incredible family. She understands that it is imperative for the family to continue to lead a discreet lifestyle when it relates to their superhero abilities. She does so by being the voice of reason to her husband and children even when they do not quite understand of the reasons behind their secrecy. Finally, we look at the companion or ally as many of us may refer to them as. Lucious, also known as Frozone, is Mr. Incredible’s right hand man. His character stands by Mr. Incredible, regardless of his agreement or disagreement with Mr. Incredible. From being...

Its limits are infinite as the universe its joy is like a never exploding balloon, and it’s passim has an overwhelming six billion followers around the ever shrinking globe. Even animals respond to music that's who they say. Music is for every occasion- from partying to Rock 'n' Rolla disco, from everyday life to a wedding anniversary and even to a somber funeral, everything has music embedded in it. Its magic alright- though we never reap every beat has our vocal cords vibrating, it causes adrenal to pump throughout the body and every muscle aching jump on the dance floor. So what is music? Well in a sense every sound produced from clapping two hands to slapping a person is music; The more recognized pundits define it as an arrangement of sounds in a pleasing sequence or combination to be sung; or played on instruments. Well who cares about music in a prolonged sense- music are something universal, something unique, and something which is soothing to our heart, our senses, which makes our nerves calm down- the effect is simply astonishing. Its like a web you have been caught in, a web of music, a web in which where ever you go you find music, music to touch your heart, to take you, in a sense, under its control.

...Blues Essay I chose to do my essay on Tracy Chapman’s 1996 release of “Give Me One Reason,” which can be found at the following link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y2kEx5BLoC4. Chapman begins this duple meter song with an electric guitar solo playing the melody of the tune for one measure when her vocals join singing one complete chorus. The dynamic range of the song is minimal throughout but after the introduction of the duo guitar and vocal solo all the other instruments join in intensifying the energy of the tune while keeping the same medium paced tempo. There is a variety of timbres played in this song including the piano, bass guitar, electric guitars, drums, and tambourine. There are also female and male background vocals joining in sporadically adding to the ending of some choruses by singing either “You can see me turning” or “Why I should stay.” Halfway through the song after the melody is played about four times with the chorus sung two complete times there is an electric guitar solo for a 12-bar phrase. The homophonic texture of this tune provides the melody with a simple accompaniment of at least five different tunes. I found it difficult to listen to this song without moving my upper body back and forth, singing the words, and tapping my feet. Even after taking a break from the song I would still sing the main chorus. This leads me to believe this song is most definitely program music. This song provoked me to move my body. It stimulated my response...

...Take a look at your guitar strings. Are they in good shape? Are they silver and shiny? Are six strings there? If it's been several months since you put new strings on your guitar, or if you answered no to any of these questions, it’s time for a string change. Guitar strings on the guitar are just like knees on a baby’s jeans: they wear out easy, and should become a regular part of your guitar care routine. Even the oils in your fingers deteriorate the string. Some people fret over the techniques of replacing their own guitar strings. String changes can be stress-free; it takes little practice, should take only a few minutes per string, and will provide a bright, clear sound from your guitar. Anyone who knows how to play the guitar should know how to perform their own string changes on a basic electric guitar. Many music stores offer restringing for a fee, which can add up quickly if you have a number of guitars to maintain. And the need for a string change can happen at any time, not just when it is convenient to run to a store to have them do it for you. To begin, collect all of the tools you will need. These include a wire cutter or pair of pliers capable of cutting wire, a thick bath towel to protect your instrument’s finish while on your working surface, and a new set of strings. You will need a tuner for when you have your strings on, so you can tune them. To remove fingerprints and oils from the fret board and off of the finished areas, you will want to use...

...3 Other invented instruments 2 Notes 3 References 4 External links Biography[edit] Early life[edit] Antoine-Joseph Sax was born in Dinant, Belgium. His father, Charles-Joseph Sax, was an instrument designer himself, who made several changes to the design of the horn. Adolphe began to make his own instruments at an early age, entering two of his flutes and a clarinet into a competition at the age of 15. He subsequently studied those two instruments at the Royal Conservatory of Brussels. Career[edit] Having left the school, Sax began to experiment with new instrument designs, while his father continued to make conventional instruments to bring money into the household. Adolphe's first important invention was an improvement of the bass clarinet design, which he patented at the age of 24. Sax relocated permanently to Paris in 1841 and began working on a new set of instruments exhibited there in 1844. These were valved bugles, and although he had not invented the instrument itself, his examples were so much more successful than those of his rivals that they became known as saxhorns. They range in approximately seven different sizes, and paved the path to the creation of the flugelhorn. Today, saxhorns are sometimes used in concert bands and orchestras. The saxhorn also laid the groundwork for the modern euphonium. Sax also developed the saxotromba family, valved brass instruments with narrower bore than the saxhorns, in 1845, though they survived only briefly.[2] Saxhorn...
