...University of Phoenix Material BUGusa, Inc., Worksheet Use the scenarios in the Bugusa, Inc., link located on the student website to answer the following questions. Scenario: WIRETIME, Inc., Advertisement Has WIRETIME, Inc., committed any torts? If so, explain. After reviewing the four areas that must be met for a defamation tort, I feel that it does qualify for a tort. Defamatory statement – this was met. WIRETIME, Inc. had a statement published in a well-known magazine that can be interpreted as remarks that were meant to harm the reputation of the plaintiff. Dissemination to a third party – this was also met. The Restatements indicate this element requires the information to reach the eyes or ears of someone besides the tortfeasor and the victim. In this case, each person that purchased or even looked at the publication was subjected to the material. Specificity was met, the statement published in the magazine targeted BUGusa Inc. product. Damages can also be met if BUGusa, Inc. has lost a client or potential customer because of the information published. Scenario: WIRETIME, Inc. (Janet) Has WIRETIME, Inc. committed any torts? If so, explain. This situation qualifies for the Business Competition Tort. There was an employment contract (restrictive covenant) between Janet and BUGusa, Inc. that specified she would not go to work for a competing firm during the time period of her contract regardless of the reasons for her leaving her employment with BUGusa...

...University of Phoenix Material BUGusa, Inc., Worksheet Use the scenarios in the Bugusa, Inc., link located on the student website to answer the following questions. Scenario: WIRETIME, Inc., Advertisement Has WIRETIME, Inc., committed any torts? If so, explain. Wiretime has created the tort of trade libel. This tort is applicable due to the fact that Wiretime used BUGusa's name and product type. Next, they did it through a third party entity, the well known magazine. Finally, they showed reckless disregard for the truth in that there was no tests, research, or anything else provided to help support their claim. This defamation of character which has been set against BUGusa will help lower their reputation and even cost them customers. Scenario: WIRETIME, Inc. (Janet) Has WIRETIME, Inc. committed any torts? If so, explain. In the case of Janet, Wiretime has committed an tortious interference due to the fact that Janet showed them that she was under a non compete contract and they still offered her a 10% raise plus sign on bonus. The HR manager intentionally perused Janet knowing that it was illegal to do so for the next two years. Scenario: WIRETIME, Inc. (Steve and Walter) Discuss any liability BUGusa, Inc., may have for Walter’s actions. BUGusa is liable for Walter's actions due to the scope of employment.

...Scenario 5: This would be a harder case to figure out who was at fault. Both Randy and Brian were not adhering to proper traffic laws at the time of the accident which would ultimately put them both at fault. Randy can say that if Brian had not been speeding, there would not have been an accident no matter if he would have yielded or not. Yet in turn there are a few defenses that would be available to BugUSA. Aaccording to (Melvin, 2011, p. 208), “negligence is an accidental (without willful intent) event that caused harm to another party.” BugUSA would be able to state that if Randy would have yielded properly at the intersection there would not have been an accident. It would come down to if BugUSA would be able to prove that Randy’s negligence was at fault for the accident. Scenario 6: This would as well be a hard case. Sally would be able to use the tort strict liability and possibly negligence. According to (Melvin, 2011, 208), strict liability is when the tortfeasor may be held liable for an act regardless of intent or willfulness, applies primarily in cases of defective products and abnormal dangerous activities. In this case, BugUSA was aware that an insulator could have prevented the short circuiting which lead to her injury. Yet BugUSA would be able to say that they are not the ones at fault because there is a newer version of the same product and that it is the police department that should be taking on the negligence and strict liability cases because they had...

...Al Capone Alphonse Capone is the son of Neapolitan immigrants Gabriel and Teresa Capone. They had nine children. He was their forth, born January 17, 1899, in Brooklyn, New York. This is where he attended Public School 7 from age 5 to 14 until an incident with his 6th grade teacher, he gave her a beating and was then beaten and expelled by his principal, never to return. Beatings were a typical form of punishment for public school in this age and young Al was known to challenge authority. Expelled from school and transplanted to a different neighborhood, Capone met notorious criminals like; Johnny Torrio and Lucky Luciano when he joined two street gangs, the Brooklyn Rippers and the Forty Thieves Juniors. Within a few years he was regularly involved in organized crime. Capone worked at a night club called the Harvard Inn for the crime boss Frankie Yale. One night at the Harvard Inn, Capone insulted a young woman which led to fight. The brother of the woman gave Al a beating and a new nickname “Scarface”. This incident also led to Capone’s first arrest “disorderly conduct”. Al met Mary “Mae” Coughlin, a young Irish woman at a dance in 1918. It must have been a tumultuous, whirlwind of a romance because she gave birth to their son Albert “Sonny” Capone on December 4th, 1918 and then they married on December 30th, 1918. Capone was the prime suspect of two murders and the brutal beating of a rival gang member that led to an extended hospital stay. Frankie Yale knew that the...

...Looney Tunes Dash is the most recent, taking fantastic Looney Tunes characters and setting them into natural parts where they'll have to bounce over snags, gather focuses, and continue running until you foul up. At last, its fundamentally the same sort of game we've played many times in the recent past, which is a disgrace truly, given the fabulous source material. Instead of essentially being relied upon to continue playing to the extent that this would be possible without a genuine objective as a top priority, at any rate Looney Tunes Dash does offer a few objectives for you to finish every time you play. One moment you may be gathering a set number of carrots, or the following you may be encouraged to go for a particular score. There...

...Bug Bounty Information Paper A ‘Bug Bounty’ is a program where private or public entities provide recognition, awards, and compensation in exchange for the responsible disclosure of vulnerabilities, or bugs, in their public or private-facing infrastructures. While conventional penetration testing has a predetermined actor testing a predetermined scope, Bug Bounties generally allow for any actor to attempt to exploit the service without fear of prosecution. If this actor stays within the scope of the Bounty (e.g. not compromising personal data, breaking key infrastructure, etc.), and reports the bug responsibly to the company, without publicly releasing it first, they may receive compensation or awards. Bug Bounties have become increasingly...

...This paper will discuss four common types of distributed computer system failures which are Crash failures also known as operating system failures, Hardware Failures, Omission Failures and Byzantine Failures. Included in the discussion are failures which can also occur in a centralized computer system, and how to isolate and repair two types of failures. Crash failures are normally associated with a server fault in a typical distributed system. Inherently crash failures are interrupt operations of the server and can halt operation for a considerable time (Projects Helper, 2012).Operating system failures are the best examples for this scenario. Operating System or software failures come in many more varieties than hardware failures. Software bugs in distributed systems can be difficult to replicate and, consequently, repair and or debug. Corresponding fault tolerant systems are developed and employed with respect to these affects. An operating system or software failure can also occur in a centralized system such as a data base this is why it is highly recommended to back up a data base using stable mass storage media (Projects Helper, 2012). We have an extensive data base on our server at my work place. The storage back-up is run daily. I cannot imagine the man-hours it would take to re-input even a month’s worth of production data if it were lost due to a failure the system could not recover from. Hardware failures can occur in both distributed and centralized systems. Hardware...

...Bugs Bunny has and continues to be a standing favorite all, his popularity spans generations crossing over form one millennia to the next, he is iconically global and can be viewed in many languages in thousands of homes. True to form the creation of this character has spawned within our culture a love for such a character that he has become not only a welcomed spokes person but an undying legend whose roots can possibly be traced back hundreds of years he is everybody’s hero we laugh and cheer when he is victorious and are shocked and somewhat upset when he “loses.” Warner Bros., released his first cartoon over sixty years ago. Since “There have been over 150 Bugs Bunny cartoons, and all but about twelve are still shown rather frequently on television today. Bugs has had a more diverse and accomplished career than many Hollywood actors ever have, and some of the zaniest and funniest performances ever in film history. This did not happen overnight, by any means. Bugs Bunny's cartoons were directed over the years by such creative geniuses as Tex Avery, Chuck Jones, Friz Freleng, Bob Clampett, Robert McKimson, Frank Tashlin, and others, all of whom left their mark in film history with these animated films, and Bugs was only one of the dozens of classic creations these men worked with and created. Also not to be forgotten are the creators of the Warner cartoon soundtrack, Mel Blanc (the voice of Bugs) and musicians Carl Stalling, Milt Franklyn and William Lava” (Hunter). ...

...This was just the beginning of his downfall and it all began on February 14, 1929. First of all, Chicago had split into two rival gangs led by Al Capone and George “Bugs” Moran, by the late 1920’s. Both of these leaders vied for power, prestige, and money (Rosenberg 1). Much of the problems arose after Capone’s former enemy Dion O’ Banion was killed and it started an all-out-war in the city (The St. 1). Moran was soon the new leader. Capone’s hopes of obtaining more territory were diminished and this frustrated him. Al Capone soon began to brainstorm into developing an attempt towards George “Bugs” Moran (Rosenberg 1). Capone’s reputation as a bootlegger would soon change into horror. In order for everything to turn out as planned, Al Capone obtained help from Jack “Machine Gun” McGurn. McGurn was placed in charge to organize an assassination attempt towards “Bugs” Moran. McGurn was said to have survived many attempts so he was perfect for Madueño 2 the job. The plan was to select gunmen outside of the Chicago area. This was to ensure that if there were any survivors, they wouldn’t be able to recognize the killers as part of Capone’s gang. McGurn also acquired a stolen police car and various police uniforms. After all of this was set, Capone sent a Detroit gangster to offer Moran a load of hijacked booze. Bugs agreed to gather the delivery at his gang’s headquarters, a garage at 2122 North Clark Street (Sifakis 289). Capone had a very special “valentine” that he wanted delivered...

...point hardware failures were a common occurrence, but with recent innovations in hardware design and manufacturing these failures tend to be few and far between. Instead, more failures that now occur tend to be network or drive related. Network failures refer to the failure of links within the distributed system network. Processors within a distributed system need to be able to communicate with each other via the network. When a link in this network connection fails, this causes functions to cease running. Application failure occur to the failure of applications that run within the system, and can occur when the application stops working or operates incorrectly. These failures may be caused by a variety of issues, including software bugs. Because there are numerous fail points in...
