...Oscar Wilde once quoted that, “I can stand brute force, but brute reason is quite unbearable. There is something unfair about its use. It is hitting below the intellect”. It’s easier to fight a known war than it is to win an unknown battle. Forgiveness and being passive is the sharpest weapon of all. My mock trial team at my school is my second family and whoever disrespects them disrespects me, directly and indirectly. Mock Trial is an act or imitation trial. It is similar to a moot court, but mock trials simulate lower-court trials, while moot court simulates appellate court hearings. Attorneys preparing for a real trial might use a mock trial consisting of volunteers as role players to test theories or experiment with each other. For the past four years, the school’s mock trial team...

...CLOSING Ladies and gentlemen of the courtroom, may it please you. As I’m sure you know, I am Attorney BLANK . This is my first opportunity to address you directly and I first and foremost wanted to thank each and every one of you personally, for your time and cooperation you have put in this case. Our job here today is to determine whether or not the defendant Mr. Cartwright was negligent, and that his negligence was the proximate cause of the plaintiff Miss Jamie Franklyn’s horrific injuries. Now ladies and gentlemen of the courtroom, I’d like to readdress that negligence is defined as the failure to exercise, in the given circumstances, that degree of care for the safety of others, which a person ordinary prudence would exercise under similar circumstances. Mr. Cartwright is the official owner of the barn, which makes him liable towards that barn and its care. Regardless of whom he allows in it, and regardless of what he allows them to do in it, he is overall without a doubt responsible. In this case, Mr. Cartwright had violated the duty to maintain the barn in a reasonably safe condition. Our law welcomes us that the duty owed by the owner of a property to a licensee who has the right to enter or remain upon land by the consent of the owner. “A licensee is a person who has the right to enter or remain upon land by the consent of the owner.” They are not invited but their presence is tolerated. The owner of property owes a duty to a licensee to abstain from willfully injurious...

...Through the words used by Iago who is a very powerful speaker he was orchestrating Othello´s own ruin by making him believe that Desdemona was having an affair with Cassio what drove him crazy and ended up on everyone´s death. Three main characters that Iago used was Roderigo who since the begening was Iago´s puppet, then Cassio who trusted in Iago more than he should and Othello who was the most affected by Iago´s words. In act 2 scene 1 Iago observes Cassio and Desdemona together and decides to use their flirtation against them, then Iago convinces Roderigo to start a fight with Cassio so he will no longer be Othello´s favourite and as a result of this it will be easier for him to convince Othello to trust him rather than Cassio. Latter in act 2 scene 3 to provoke the fight Iago gets Cassio drunk which made him short tempered and more willing to fight. In act 3, scene 3 Iago and Othello enter and Iago points out that Cassio and Desdemona are being suspicious and plants the idea of the affair in Othello´s mind and teases him about it until Othello is driven into madness, then Iago lies to Othello about Cassio talking in his sleep about Desdemona and when he finds the handkerchief he plans to place it in Cassio´s room. In act 4 scene 1iago admits to Othello that Cassio and Desdemona have slept together and manipulates Cassio in front of Othello to make it seem that they are talking about Desdemona and not Bianca, after that Iago suggest Othello to strangle Desdemona instead...

...us with explanations as to how or why jurors sometimes react in a certain way when presented with different scenarios in the trials. A strength of this type of research is that it presents useful evidence which aids the government with ideas as to how to manipulate the trials so that both sides get a fair trial. For example in the study of Loftus into expert testimony it was found that if it was used in a trial, it was likely to arise more doubts about the defendant’s guilt for the jurors, so Loftus stated that if both sides use an expert it may lead to a battle of experts and as a result jurors may be confounded even more. It can therefore be seen how expert testimony should not be used often and by both sides, something which potentially trials can put into practice. Another strength of this type of research is that it’s generally quite cheap to carry out, as it usually uses self-reports to obtain results, so many can be carried out and thus vast amounts of data can be collected. This means we can apply these results to the area that we are investigating, in this case persuading a jury. On the other hand, all of the research that has been carried out into persuading a jury has been based on mock trials. For example in the Pennington & Hastie study 130 students listened to tape recordings of a mock trial, and although mock trials may resemble real trials, they are not the real thing which means the methodology lacks ecological validity as the settings are usually lab experiments...

...Hawaii Mock Trial Sim Homework 3/8/15: James Henderson Blount was born on September 12, 1837 in Georgia. He graduated from the University of Georgia and studied law. In 1859, he fought for the Confederacy in the Second Georgia battalion. He ended the war at the rank of Lieutenant. James Blount was served in the House of Representatives representing Georgia from 1873-1893. He was a Southern democrat known as the “Redeemers”. This group of politicians rose to power in the South and sought to redeem the South from the republican party who they felt were getting corrupt. The party was known to be associated with groups such as the White League and the Ku Klux Klan. The people in the party were former slave owners and pushed for segregation and anti-voting rights...

...the Woods conveys a sarcastic tone and imagery to address the idea of “why do so many people no longer consider the physical world worth watching?” He also ponders, “Why do so many Americans say they want their children to watch less TV, yet continue to expand the opportunities for them to watch it?” Louv visualizes explaining the nineteenth century to a younger generation and how they will not understand what they hear. Louv assumes, “’You did what?’ they’ll ask. ‘Yes,’ we’ll say, ‘it’s true. We actually looked out the car window.’” He is sarcastic because he is in disbelief at how oblivious adolescence is becoming. Louv finds it humorous that children are becoming so dependent on technology and are becoming so detached from nature. He mocks our future generation and their foolhardiness that is arising within them. Richard Louv reminisces his days in the back seat of a driving car, and vividly explains his experience through imagery. He remembers when he “started with a kind of reverence at the horizon, as thunderheads and dancing rain moved with” him. He also personifies the “dancing rain” to portray his full image. Louv understands technology is going to expand and become more broad; however he can understand the intellectual details of nature that he remembers and realizes that technology is distracting people from visualizing “the variety or architecture, here and there; the woods and fields and water beyond the steamy edges- all that was and still available to the eye...

...Development Best Practices Contents Values Principles Practices o o o o o o o o o o Testing Naming Conventions Client and Server-Side Architectural Patterns ImsCommonsUtil Database Access Dependency Injection/Inversion of Control Business (Domain) Objects GUI Refactoring Core Java Values Simplicity Use the simplest design for the current functionality; don't try to anticipate tomorrow's needs. Code should be easy for a new developer to understand (or yourself a year later). Don't optimize for performance unless there's empirical evidence that it is needed. Be wary of building or using frameworks that make the application harder to understand. If you do need a framework (e.g. Spring for dependency injection), make sure the application's business logic isn't tied to the framework in any way. Maintainability Good naming is crucial. You should be able to read the code aloud, and a person listening to you should be able to understand what the code you are reading does Put responsibilities in the right place. Enforce a clean separation of the application's layers. For example, the UI code should not know anything about the database structure. Use well-known patterns and common idioms for the language. Maintain consistency at the module, application, and team level. There's always more than one way to do something, but doing it consistently is more important than finding the absolute best way.

...get to the point of having a positive body image and even though I still have insecurities, for the most part I feel pretty good about myself. One of the biggest things that challenges me in having a positive body image is when I go shopping. A lot of the time I find clothes that I really like but they may not have my size or the clothes are in my size but for some reason they don’t look right on my body. This has been something that has always stressed me out from a young age because I have always felt bad when I don’t fit into certain types of clothes. Another thing that challenges me is when I see people on TV criticizing people because of their weight. I’ve watched numerous talk shows where they will be talking about a celebrity and mock them for gaining weight. In turn this makes me feel even more insecure about my weight, especially if I weigh more than the person they are mocking. However; with my body I have learned to embrace the fact that having curves isn’t a bad thing. Being short sometimes benefits me because clothes that might be too short on other people fit me perfectly. I’ve also just overall embraced the fact that my body is my own and as long as I’m happy in my own skin that is what...

...Is Mac Flecknoe a lampoon or a satire? At a time when fiction from Grub Street hack writers (whom he called the “multitude of scribblers, who daily pester the world with their insufferable stuff ”) was becoming widely read, courtly poets and dramatists like Dryden felt a need to play the public role of arbiters of literary taste. Dryden was actively engaged in contemporary debates which sought to lay down standards of what was considered high and low art. He published his “Essay of Dramatic Poesie” in 1667 and “Discourses on Satire and Epic Poetry” in 1692. Both of these served as prescriptive texts for what passed muster as “good” art. In an age of a revived interest in the classics, many of the instructions on good satirical writing are based on the works of Horace, Persius and Juvenal. While he did not think highly of Horatian verse which used word-play like anagrams and “ackrosticks” and was favoured by Francophiles poets, he admired Juvenal and Persius for their unity of plot and their use of Wit, which he saw as a more masculine device than lampooning or raillery. In MacFlecknoe, Dryden’s definition of good art also comes to be strongly associated with class. When he says that bad poetry laden with “Pure Clinches” or puns is inspired by the “suburban Muse”, his implication is that it is only the genteel circles of London that produce and read good poetry – thus, Bun-hill and Watling Street are down-market parts of London which by virtue of their economic demography...

...Travis Calloway Criminal Law LE 1430 Unit 3 Assignment 1 Mr. Ashour Ebrahim October 8, 2012 Entrapment Entrapment occurs when a government agent induces a person to commit a crime he or she otherwise would have been unlikely to commit. In order for entrapment to be used as a defense in trial there are three conditions it must meet: 1) The idea for committing the crime came from the government agents and not from the person accused of the crime. 2) Government agents then persuaded or talked the person into committing the crime. Simply giving someone the opportunity to commit a crime is not the same as persuading them to commit that crime. 3) The person was not ready and willing to commit the crime before interaction with the government agents. In chapter 5 practicum 5.7 I believe that the defendant was not set up for entrapment. All the officer did was simply pretend to be drunk and had money hanging out of his pocket like any other drunk fool might. He had no interaction with the defendant nor did he try and persuade him in anyway. The defendant left then returned 15 minutes later with the intent on robbing the officer. He did not have to return but he chose to do so therefore he planned on robbing that officer so that shows the criminal intent was there. In practicum 5.8 I think that the drug dealer was set up for entrapment. When the informant tried to get some LSD the drug dealer said no. But even after being rejected the informant keeps calling and...
