...Who Murdered JonBenet Ramsey? From researching the murder of JonBenet Ramsey and watching “The Case Of: JonBenet,” I believe that JonBenet’s brother, Burke killed her and their parents covered it up to protect their son. John and Patsy obviously succeeded because to this day, no one knows who killed JonBenet. I have many reasons behind why I think Burke Ramsey killed his six-year-old sister. One reason is because of the evidence at the crime scene. Another reason being the marks on JonBenet’s body. The last reason for me to believe Burke killed his sister is because of what he said and how he was acting when he was interviewed two weeks after JonBenet’s death. In my opinion, the evidence found in the Ramsey house after JonBenet’s death points...

...increased social responsibility. Managers can use the social audit to assess corporate social responsibility. The social audit allows management to evaluate the success or lack of success of programs resulting in the improvement of social performance. The information attained with a social audit can be used to plan and implement socially responsible practices and policies. The essence of the challenge is balancing a company’s bottom line against social responsibilities and effective approaches to environmental protection. Organizations should also examine their values to make sure they are in tune with society value. The obstacles in implementing social responsible policies includes the pressure from financial analysts and stock holders who push for steady increases in earnings on a quarterly basis. An example of social responsibility is increased diversity in the work place. As well as contributions of time and money to charitable, cultural, and civic organizations. Environmental awareness is another way companies demonstrate their sense of social responsibility by limiting the damage their operations cause to the environment. 2. What is departmentalization?

...1. How did Cliff take advantage of principles of operant conditioning to modify his staff’s behavior? Cliff’s took advantage of the principles of operant conditioning to modify his staff’s behavior in a few different rewarding and positive ways. Cliff noticed when he accepted the position of manager, that there was a high turnover rate in the company and employees were “unproductive and insufficient.” Many past employees quit because the prior manager was very negative, and often criticized when work was not done properly. Cliff decided to not criticize or punish his employees unless it was absolutely necessary. Some approaches of operant conditioning Cliff took were complimenting employees often for their hard work. He set goals for them to reach, for example every Friday afternoon he would buy lunch for all staff members that met their goals everyday that week. Cliff also incorporated spot checks on what staff members were accomplishing, and if they were working hard and meeting goals he would reward them with things like, acquiring a few more extra minutes for lunch. 2. Why did Cliff’s predecessor’s strategy of punishing undesirable behavior not work very well? Even if punishment and reinforcement strategies were equally effective at controlling behavior, why would reinforcement remain preferable? The previous managers strategy of punishing undesirable behavior did not work well because the staff felt demoralized and some even quit. When the staff is being constantly...

...Samantha Hoppe – The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance and Hondo Journal “I know those law books mean a lot to you, but not out here. Out here a man settles his own problems,” says Tom Doniphon to the tenderfoot Ransom Stoddard when he first arrives in Shinbone at the beginning of The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance (1962). He is simply stating that men of the West do not follow the same laws that men from back east do. Committing murder is easily the biggest crime that men of the West commit. As clearly shown in Hondo (1953) and The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance, the object that aids in this crime, the gun, is essential to all Westerners who call themselves men. A man who carries a gun automatically brings an essence of superiority, pride, and skill...

...an employee of the bank, identified as Dan, who is a trained paralegal. Mildred told Dan that she was concerned that were she to default on her loan, her credit would be destroyed. In response, Dan told her: Don’t worry about it. If you don’t pay your loan, the only remedy the bank has is to foreclose on the house. The bank cannot go after you personally and your credit score will be unaffected. I’ve been dealing with this issue for years and I’m telling you that this is the Ohio law on the matter. Unfortunately, it turns out that Dan was incorrect. When Mary defaults on her loan the next year, her credit is badly hurt. Mildred has engaged our firm to evaluate the possibility of filing a suit against Dan based on his statement to her and her reliance on it. She met with attorney, Joe, who immediately ruled out the possibility of suing him for fraud or misrepresentation, because Dan sincerely believed that what he was saying was true. Instead, Mary said to Joe, “Well, Dan isn’t a lawyer. Isn’t it wrong for him to tell me what the Ohio law is when he’s not even a lawyer?” Joe advised Mildred that this firm would research whether a person could be sued for unauthorized practice of law. Issue Based upon Ohio law, can a private cause of action exists against a non lawyer who committed the unauthorized practice of law thereby hurting the plaintiff's case? Rule Ohio Statute ORC 4705.07(A)(3) & (C)(2) A) No person who is not licensed to practice law in this state...

...dealing with someone or maybe a business, who commits violations against statutes. Civil law has to do with lawsuits that are non-criminal such as divorce, contracts, injuries in an accident, and things of that nature. In criminal law, the accountability has to be “Beyond a reasonable doubt” in order for anyone to be convicted of the crime. This means that there has to be a considerable amount of evidence towards the person or company, and that they question the guilt very little or not at all. In this type of case, if the jury doesn’t come up with a unanimous decision of guilty or not guilty, it causes a mistrial in the case. In a civil case, the balance of probability has to be proved that an incident occurred. Once it has been proved, the person or company involved in the lawsuit can be convicted. Basically, in these types of cases, the outcome really depends on who has the best evidence. If a person is a threat to society or what they have done has caused harm to someone that would be considered Criminal law. For example, the Jeffrey Dahmer case is an example of a Criminal case because he was threat to society being that he was a serial killer. If a single person or company is being sued by a single person or company, that would be considered to be Civil law because there is no threat to society and it’s a matter between two people; not between the State and a person. In a Civil case the Plaintiff is the person or company who is filing the Lawsuit against another...

When did the case occur? If a case is very old it may no longer be current law. 5. How did the events unfold, who did what to who? In some cases will be easy to describe the facts, in others it will be more difficult, but determining the facts are where all cases begin, our system is fact based.

...– Community Health Nursing – Task 2 Renee Todd Western Governors University Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) is a severe acute respiratory illness caused by the coronavirus named MERS-CoV. It is believed that the virus is found in camels and passed on to humans who are in contact or around infected animal. These camels are mainly located in Egypt, Oman, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia (WHO, 2015a). Those infected with MERS exhibit fever, cough, and shortness of breath, pneumonia, and diarrhea. Severe cases require patient to be put on mechanical ventilation or in an intensive care unit. It is also known to cause kidney failure and septic shock. The elderly, persons who are immunosuppressed, those who have diabetes, cancer, or chronic lung disease are at an increased risk of contracting MERS. It can be transmitted to anyone who is in close contact with the infected person (WHO, 2015a). MERS has been reported in 26 countries throughout the world. In May of 2015, there was an outbreak in Korea that began with a 68 year old male who had recent travel from the Arabian Peninsula.

...The courts in the United States are part of an institution of different opinions when addressing criminal and civil matters. One important group that can be addressed is judges, who can be referred to as a referee of the courts. Judges many times will give the final say in a case and determine the fate of someone who has been convicted to be guilty. A major problem in the American court system is the use of emotion, and what degree of emotion should be employed, or if none at all. Unfortunately, not all of those on the bench exhibit the same thoughts and preferences when determining a sentence for a convicted criminal, causing conflict between the system and those who are committed and sent to imprisonment. The defendant, Cynthia Ellman, had been caught for the third time shop lifting in her home state of Pennsylvania; and in this state, anyone who commits a crime a third time, such as shoplifting, receives a felony conviction. Ellman was a poor, African American woman who had stolen cigarettes and pants, resulting in a total of thirty two dollars worth of merchandise stolen. Because of these three events, she received six years minimum and twelve years maximum in a maximum security prison....
