...assisted living residence as a server. Admittedly , I rushed and was rude to the officer regarding my action of not fully stopping and the understandable reaction by getting pulled over. I was being out of hand with my words and he (Officer J.Christensen) flagged down five other police. I was shown the ticket on the pad. And took the pen while the cop was showing me what I was being cited for. He took it back and said he wasn’t finished telling me what they were for, and already running late to work, I took the pen stating I would need to sign it either way but not in as kind of words. He then tightly grabbed my wrist with which I grabbed the pen, I have bruises on my wrist still from where he grabbed, I’m on blood thinners due to serious heart complications and knew the grip in my wrist would bruise by the strength of his hand. Instinctively, I pulled his hand off mine, to which he responded by lifting me up and putting me in an arm bar, throwing me on the ground with the help of another cop and arrested me, but not before leaving massive bruises on my arms, whereas I’m sure he had none. I know now it is never acceptable to put your hands on a cop or anyone in general, However I know, Throwing me on the ground with the help of another officer was unnecessary considering I was 90 pounds (left jail at 82 pounds) and 5’4 and did not resist arrest or fight back after the minute I grabbed his hand off my wrist. I have pictures of the bruises that the officers left on my arms but they are...

...friend that I was visiting a ride back to his dorm room since we were on the other side of campus and it was like a 15-20 min walk back to his dorm. I got pulled over by the cops because my head lights weren’t on. When he comes over he tells me my lights aren’t on and because there is an auto switch I usually keep it on so they come on automatically I thought they were. They weren’t on auto and I didn’t really notice because of how lighten up UCONN is and when I saw the cop drive by me I had this feeling he was going to turn around and pull me over too. When he came to my window he told me my lights weren’t and was like “Really?” and then he asked if we had been drinking and I said no because I don’t drink. My friend said he did and he had been a little and that’s why I offered to take him back to his dorm. Then the cop takes out his flashlight and starts looking around the car and he spots this water bottle behind my seat and he ask me to give it to him and I did because I know I don’t drink and had no problem with giving him the water bottle because I don’t even think it was alcohol. I just had gotten my car back to because its rims got re-painted and I didn’t even have it for 3 weeks. so next he asks me to get out of the car so he can test me to see if I have been drinking and I passed. I also told the cop I didn’t know what was in the bottle because there was literally nothing in the bottle. It was basically empty. And then he tell me it’s in a perfect spot for me to reach it...

...Tony's friend, is coming home from the army. Tony were meeting him at the anual carnival. Tony understood that Leon has a drinking problem. then after some time a police man came and sucker punched Leon out of nowhere. After that, they went to the hospital and got Leon patched up. Later that night Tony had a dream; He saw the big cop again, this time he were pointing a long human bone at him. The bone was shining from the moonlight. The cop didnt have a face, only a black ceremonial mask with round, white-rimmed eyes on. Leon healed from the earlier event, but he was bitter. All he was talking about were how he was going to kill the cop if he ever saw him again. Tony is thinking that the cop beat up Leon because of the wine he was drinking. Later they went to do some errands. They ended up at a gas station to fill the tank up, and Tony went into the station to buy a pop. It was there he saw the cop from earlier again, so he left in a hurry. Leon had noticed the cop and had the motor running. They left in a hurry. After a while they noticed someone following them, it was the cop. They stopped and asked if there were any problems. Tony learned that the cop was a racsist and had a deep hatred for them, but Leon didn't get that. After a little tense conversation, Leon drove Tony home. Tony's father commented that it had been a fast trip, but Tony just agreed, because he didn't want to tell what really happened, and worry the family. That afternoon Leon had spoken to the governour about...

...Share the “COP” Model The COP model is a framework for discovering your sweet spot, or best fit within an organization. The model is comprised of three overlapping fields: competency, passion, and opportunity. The sweet spot is the section where all three of these arenas intersect. I presented it to Bob, another manager at my company and our discussion led to new perspectives and understandings of each of the three fields. Competency is defined as what you do well. There are many different ways to excel at a job. Bob labeled Jackson, his most tenured employee, as his most valuable worker. His group’s primary objective is to create data for software that helps estimate construction costs. Jackson has worked in residential and commercial construction for more than 20 years. His co-workers frequently rely on his expertise when making their own decision. However, Jackson lacks some technical skills and struggles to come to conclusions without the help of others. He is not the best employee at the typical assignments of his job. He succeeds, because he is very competent in the construction space and he can provide essential insights that no one else can. Excelling in areas crucial to a company’s performance, can be a very valuable asset, even if you lack more traditional skills. While discussing opportunity I asked Bob what the most important part of his job was. Opportunity is the marketability of your services or the activities that best meet the needs of the...

...The Sammy Yatim case was a young eighteen year old man that was seriously shot in a bus at Bellwood and Dundas multiple times. In recent discussions on the Sammy Yatim case people have questions whether the cop, James Forcillo actions justified or not. Many people have questioned whether Forcillo’s actions were consequences of his lawful training or a murder without justification. Yatim was riding the like an ordinary person until later he pulled out his knife in one hand and his penis in the other. He then attempted to slash a women’s neck, that’s when everybody screamed and ran out the bus except for the bus driver. The bus driver was waiting for everyone to get out and within that time Yatim lounged at the driver, luckily the cops came just in time and the bus driver ran out. Yatim was then alone in the bus. The cops told Yatim to “drop the knife” to which he said, “no. you’re a fu***** Pu***”, and did not obey the police. Yatim later stepped out the streetcar and was shot 9 times. Forcillo was the only cop out of the many that shot Yatim. A cop ran over to Yatim and noticed he was still alive so he tasered him. Yatim was pronounced dead at the scene of the crime on July, 27, 2013. Many people questioned the actions of Forcillo. Forcillo was charged with second degree murder for shooting Yatim which means that Forcillo intended to kill Yatim. His wife was really upset because she thought he was justified. The court then found out that Yatim was mentally unstable so it increased...

...I chose the article Mom of Accused Cop Killer in Hattiesburg: ‘The Drugs Had Him’. The source of this article is the LA Times (May 11, 2015). It talks about marijuana and pills being involved on daily basis. It talks about how families can get hurt and not just their own. I chose the article because the title caught my eye and seemed interesting. This article honestly caught my eye because it seemed like an interesting read on how drugs came into play with murdering a cop. This article speaks about the shooting that occurred when an officer pulled the car over. On May 11th 2015 three suspects were pulled over and the officer called for backup because of a feeling. That feeling was right because Marvin started shooting and killed two officers of the name Benjamin Deen and Liquori Tate. Mary Smith the mother of Marvin Banks was addicted to drugs and possibly had a mental disorder the mother thought. On May 11th 2015 Mary Smiths son Marvin Banks, Curtis banks were involved with murder also another suspect. Marvin Banks who was addicted to drugs was charged with Capital Murder for the involvement of killing two officers, and Curtis Banks was charged with accessory of the fact of Capital Murder.

...Polarity Management of Cost and Quality Dustin Klinger Kaplan University Polarity Management of Cost and Quality Polarities are interdependent pairs that support a common purpose yet tend to be contradictory of one other (Polarity Partnerships, para. 1). Some examples of polarities include: stability and change, individual and team, long and short term, autocratic and participatory and my topic, cost and quality. Any of these pairs are known to counter the other. In my case, it is important to note that when quality improves, cost generally increases and vice versa. Throughout this paper I will discuss managerial approaches to utilize these two concepts to your advantage without ever overlooking either of them. It is important to embrace the fact that there are polarities everywhere we turn and instead of trying to fight against them, we should develop their concepts to make us more complete. Larry Hirschhorn has argued that in order for managers to become proficient in managing polarities, they must develop a set of “rules of thumb” for when they encounter different circumstances. They establish these rules with the hopes of somewhat standardizing their way of thinking as well as how to allocate resources for each instance. The guidelines are generally developed to recognize patterns and opportunities. Hirschhorn recommends managers create a 2 x 2 table to help illustrate this concept and to categorize its different states. Each axis would include a “hi” and...

...Glencore’s bad international practices As the world is enduring a serious financial crisis, big businesses have been challenged as never before. Protesters have been demanding a fairer form of capitalism. People want more socially responsible companies and genuinely popular capitalism. The case discusses one of the world’s most powerful conglomerates in the world which is Glencore. As it was recently introduced in London Stock Exchange, Glencore was questioned about its international practices. It is a commodity giant specialized in raw materials. The multi-billion dollar commodity giant is accused of profiting from child labor in several mining exploitation in the Congo, moreover, claims say that it is paying the associates of paramilitary killers in Colombia. An investigation proves that children as young as ten are working in the Glencore-owned mining concession and some confidential documents show a Glencore subsidiary made payments to the suspected associates of paramilitary in Colombia. In the Congo, while international law prohibits anyone under 18 working in a mine, many of the miners were under the legal age. Although Glencore says it stopped operating in the mine since 2008, because of the collapse in the price of copper, it still owns the concession. Glencore chief executive Ivan Glasenberg said the mine had been taken over by local workers without its permission. He said the child miners were part of a group of freelance miners who "raided our land in 2010… against all...

...Cristian Uribe The war without end, selfishness, nothing to do against death and the scars of the war in Men without women In this essay I’m talking about the main issues present in the following short stories in Men without women by Ernest Hemingway (1928): In another country (25-29), Hills like white elephants (29-33), The killers (33-40) and Now I lay me (83). In another country is about a wounded American soldier recuperating from an injury by receiving treatments from machines in a hospital in Milan, Italy. Machines. With him there’s an Italian major receiving treatment for a shriveled hand. There is a strong optimism of a physician employing the new machines which is contrasted with the skepticism of Italian major who, disbelieving in the machines, nevertheless comes regularly for therapy to his hand. That daily attendance is interrupted only with the sudden death of the major’s wife. The machines were new, as result, the narrator and the major were trying them. And although they both didn’t trust in the machines they were under their treatment because they really wanted to recover. The major wanted to be his wife and the narrator probably wanted to clean his pride because his wound and medals were “fake”. What I think can be infer from the text is that even if the machines have success healing the soldiers, the war for them won’t end because is not just facing enemy on the front line but also picking up the pieces of their damaged lives and facing the prospect...

...Eternal Beauty In Shakespeare’s “Sonnet 18”, the narrator employs an extended metaphor when comparing the addressee to a “summer’s day”. The metaphor is emphasized by the tone shift in line nine, and the comparison is finalized by a couplet that expands on the theme of immortality. The sonnet makes it clear that the individual’s beauty and vigor cannot be compared to commonplace nature and that the individual is something more than human. Sonnet 18 is part of the group of sonnets that is written to address men. In this particular one, Shakespeare compares the man’s beauty to that of nature, particularly a day in the summer. The first quatrain begins the extended metaphor by implying that the man being addressed has all the qualities of a summer’s day. This immediately associates the man with the sun and all of its qualities: he is strong, bright, and full of energy. However, by writing: “Though art more lovely and more temperate,” in line two, Shakespeare illustrates the fact that although the best thing nature has to offer, a summer’s day is far from perfect. The first shift happens in line three; the narrator stops talking about the man and begins pointing out the imperfections of summer. He employs vivid imagery to argue that summer’s beauty is hurt by “rough winds” and its “lease hath all too short a date,” (4). Shakespeare also adds that summer may sometimes be too hot, and other times its “gold complexion [is] dimm’d,” (5). This emphasizes the qualities of the man; he...

...built up for something bad to happen. A point of view shot is then used as the camera goes around the side of the house. We have not yet seen this person, but we are seeing from their perspective and they are creeping around in the shadows, it creates an anxious feeling and we feel as though we are intruding. The shot then shows two people through the window of the house, and they are unaware that they are being watched. This is used to create suspense. The point of view shot then changes so that we are seeing the shot through the eyes of the killers mask. And because of this, we can’t really see what is happening, which makes the audience nervous and gives an uncanny feeling. Around this time, it is shown that it is the killer who’s mindset the viewer is in, which means that it breaks the typical conventions of Horror. I know this because, it is unusual as the viewer is usually made to relate to the victim, meaning it to be that the killer is just as creepy and scary to them as though it was actually happening. Mainly long shots are used in this opening and...
