...For this assignment I have chosen 3 different tattoo shops. I have chosen these three shops because I love all different types of art work and I could see myself working at a shop just so that I could see the different types of art every day. I don’t want body art to define a person or what they do. Not everyone that has a tattoo is a druggie, someone who is in and out of jail all the time or a no job loser. I see that as a marketing manager for any of these three shops I could change some things that could help out the businesses out by getting more clients into the doors and no just have a word of mouth reputation but have a good community reputation and known to be the most helpful tattoo shop around if you are thinking about getting that first tattoo. Some of the things that could be done range from being really simple and easily fixed to some more out there plans and ways to be involved with the community and other business around. Some of the things are fixing the already up and running websites, making sure that the shop is considered clean and not a dive place to receive a tattoo. From that we get into hiring more help around the shop and minor fixes to insure that the shop has its best foot forward no one wants a tattoo parlor to seem off in anyway most of all those first time customers. They need to be informed and know all the pros and cons of the type of tattoo and its placement. This leads to the big steps and being more involved in the community by helping...

...identity was revealed and DNA testing also revealed that this criminal committed multiple rapes and murders. The crimes itself consist of several women being raped along the bike path in Delaware Park. The crimes took place around December of 1983 and July of 1984. The attacker had it all planned out as he would wait for the right moment then move in for the attack. The attacker apparently surprised his victims from behind by threatening them with a gun. Once the victim was at his mercy he went on to rape them and when finished he gave them instructions to remain on the ground for up to 20 minutes before they move (innocenceproject.org). This was done so that the attacker could get a good head start to his own get away. During the identification process at least three of the victims told police that their attacker weighed about 150-160 pounds (innocenceproject.org). The fact is Capozzi weighed around 220 at the time of the attacks and had a visible scar above his left eye. The victims never mentioned anything about it during...

...Forensics History Theresia L. Coates Criminal Justice 1010 Forensics History What does Forensics mean? How old is forensic science? When it was first applied to the law? How has the Forensic science changed the arrest and prosecution success of criminals? The term "forensic" comes from the Latin and means, simply, having to do with the law. How has Forensics evolved from the beginning until today? Let us delve into the history of forensics and its blossoming partnership with the law. Surprisingly, Forensic Science has been around and used in criminal investigations in some manner since before the Roman Empire making it centuries old. It has only been within the last century that law enforcement agencies and the court systems have come to rely so heavily on the use of scientific practices in crime scene investigations.1 The first application of forensic science was by the Roman physician Antistius in the year 44 B.C., whom examined the body of Julius Caesar. He determined even though the dictator was stabbed 23 times, only one wound through his chest caused his actual death. This autopsy is thought to be the first one recorded and the start of using forensic science. Here in the Greek and Roman society extensive knowledge was developed regarding the production, use and symptoms of various poisons, making it possible to identify their use in previously undetected murders. Thanks to these western civilizations advances in the medical field as well as pharmacology were...

...the circular reasoning and non-operationality of the American Framework (Dopuch and Sundern, 1980; Solomons, 1986; Gerboth, 1987; Hines, 1989). Moreover, the decision-useful objective didn’t gather real support when the FASB carried out a survey to determine if constituencies did agree with the Trueblood report objectives of financial reporting (Dopuch and Sunder, 1980). Notwithstanding these issues, the FASB and the IASB go further towards a focus on capital providers needs in their joint project of revision of the Conceptual Framework when writing that financial reporting is not primarily directed to other groups than capital providers. There is a possibility that the objectives assigned to financial accounting as a social activity is directed by a dominant group that imposes its will on all others involved in the activity by making its own objective become the objective of the social activity (Dopuch and Sunder, 1980). Therefore, when criteria are used to justify the identification of primary users, there should be a comprehensive analysis of their definition, their importance for each category of users of financial reporting and if other criteria should be taken into account before reaching strong structuring conclusions on the objective of financial reporting and on identifying their primary users that may reflect the will of a dominant group. As a conclusion, trying to identify a primary user of financial reporting in order to reduce and facilitate the determination...

...Describe the differences between needs identification and defining commercial equivalents and discuss why it is preferable to separate into two stages. “Every acquisition is intended to fulfill a need.” (Johnson, Leenders, & Flynn, 2010) The first step in the acquisition process is to identify what is needed. The next step the needs are translated into commercial equivalents so the suppliers understand what is needed. It is important to not combine these two stages into one. By specifying the need first then identifying the options to meet the need allows for lower cost and better or more innovative solutions. Also if a supply professional believes that more opportunities exist to improve the commercial equivalent presented by designer they must bring it to the designers’ attention. This involvement prevents the hassle of trying to reverse a design decision after it’s made. The example the book used was two pieces of wood. We say “I need a nail to nail these two pieces of wood together,” instead of “I need to fasten these two pieces of wood together.” There are many ways to fasten the wood together, nailing is just one way. Using a bolt, screw, or staple are other methods of fastening the wood together. Interpret the value to the organization when early supplier involvement (ESI) is implemented effectively. Early supplier involvement (ESI) is valuable to the organization, it ensures that what is specified in the needs is procurable and represents good value...

...The private sector job market follows strict hiring standards. Each individual recognizes himself as a personal brand or a marketing product. A personal brand centers on identifying an individual’s value, and how he or she benefits a potential employer (Aspire.com, 2014). Perspective employers use technical hiring methods and pre-employment studies aimed at locating potential employees with a positive image. The corporate goal includes locating and investing in an influential business leader (Marrs, 2012). The 360˚Reach-Personal Brand Assessment identifies brand attributes, personal brand skills, strengths and weaknesses with projective exercises for recognizing each member’s team role. This exercise highlights detailed information about the effectiveness for each group member and what valuable skills he or she provides for the team (Reach Communication Consulting, Inc., 2009). Brand Attributes Attributes identify personal values for each group member and how his or her strengths influence the team (Reach Communication Consulting, Inc., 2009). This survey recognizes the daily motivation for each team member. The attributes from each team member provide a balance within the team, which overcomes any challenge or conflict. One strategy helping the team cohesion includes embracing the unique skills each member provides for the group (Reach Communication Consulting, Inc., 2009).

The investigator, evidence technician, property officer, laboratory technician, prosecutor and defense attorney all may have custody. Each individual in this chain has a responsibility for the safe-keeping and preservation of the evidence while it is in their possession. Initial Collection * Before any evidence is removed from the crime scene, there should be an evidence custodian designated as the person in charge of initiating and maintaining all evidence. This person needs to document the crime scene location, as well as his time of arrival. There should also be a crime scene log established, witness list and documentation of identification, arrival and departure times of all law enforcement crime scene personnel. Record Keeping * The investigator who handles the evidence initially should affix her name, badge number and assignment to the package containing the evidence. When the evidence leaves the officer's possession, a record should be made in her case notes identifying to whom the evidence was given, the date and time, and the reason it was turned over. A signed receipt should be obtained from the person accepting the evidence and another signed receipt should be obtained when the item is returned.

...exactly one piano model, all of which have an identification number and model. The company produces thousands of pianos of a certain model, and the design is specified before any single piano exists. 1. Identify the degree and cardinalities of the relationship. The degree is the number of attributes in a relation. For this company, the attributes to distinguish between the products would be serial number, completion date, piano model, and identification number. This company makes thousands of pianos per model, and makes many different models. “Cardinality is the number of tuples in a relation,” in this case, a tuple would be a single piano model. So depending on the number of different piano models they produce will be the cardinality. 2. Express the relationships graphically with an E-R diagram. A vendor builds multiple types of tablet computers. Each has a type, identification number, and a name. The key specifications for each type include amount of storage and display type. The company uses multiple processor types, exactly one of which is used for a specific tablet type. The same processor can be used in multiple types of tablets. Each processor has a manufacturer and a manufacturer's unique code that identifies it. 1. Identify the degree and cardinalities of the relationship.
