  • Create a scenario in which someone has asked you to compare several things and make a recommendation

    $7.50

    For your final exam essay (2 pages), you will create a scenario in which someone has asked you to compare several things and make a recommendation. Here are some examples:

    You work for a lawn care company, and the mower you’ve been using is about to be beyond repair. When youreport the situation to your boss, she says she’s aware that it’s time for some serious equipment replacement. She asks you to find out what’s available and make a recommendation. You know the machines you consider need to be easy to load and unload, able to make tight corners, be fuel efficient, havemulching capability, and be easy to maintain.

    You’ve been asked to reupholster a couch for a family with small children. They wantan elegantlook with durability, easy clean-up, and an affordable price. What are their best fabric options, and which would you recommend?

    You are a fashion consultant with a client who wants a makeover. She’s collected pictures of outfits that look wonderful but would not flatter her figure, fit her budget,nor be practical for her lifestyle. You figure out what she really wants (the underlying appeal for her in these pictures) and show her some other options, including your recommendation for her new basic wardrobe.

    Your father has agreed to assist you with car payments, providing you can find an appropriate car. The two of you have not always agreed on what is appropriate. He values reliability, efficiency, and affordability. You agree that those are important factors, but you’re also concerned about your image. Find two or three cars that meet both your definitions of appropriate, recommending the one that pleases you best.

  • Technology for reducing injuries in a car crash

    $6.50

    This is a 15-page double-spaced term research paper for a 400 level insurance course at a University. The topic is insurance, and any topic is fine as long as it is not broad. For example, writing about life insurance is NOT approved. Any topics found in the back of each chapter of the book called, “Introduction to Risk Management and Insurance” by Mark S. Dorfman is okay. I found some hints regarding this paper online:Since it’s only a 4 page paper- you may want to analyze just the changes made by one auto manufacturer or automobile make. You should be able to go by one of your local dealerships and get materials their cars and interview a sales manager about the safety features that are in their cars. If you do that– go at a time of day the dealership is slow. Also- call the sales manager in advance and set up an appointment with him/her. Do a little research before you go so you have a list of questions you want to ask.

    Cars today are designed to direct the force of the collision away from the occupants cage. Cars have crush zones through out them. The helps to direct the energy of a collision around the drivers cage and not through it. Seat belts have pre-tensioners. Air bags are a well know safety component. Now side impact air bags are more prominentt. Steering wheels in some cars are made to collapse when the air bag deploys – this helps reduce injury to drivers by airbags. Air bag control modules capture data after a deployment. What changes have been made to the reinforcement of doors? What changes have been made to braking systems? When you think about it….a lot of the features of today’s cars are to prevent accidents/injuries.

    Also you would want to research types of injuries that result from auto crashes. Cost of those injuries per year. I would not spend a lot of time on the paper here – but this will build the foundation of why these technological changes were made.

    Now that I think about it – 4 pages is not a long paper at all. You may need to narrow the topic down to one safety feature in one specific model or line of cars and how that has reduced injuries.

    A brief introduction to ethical consumerism

    On April 24 2013, a building known as the Rana Plaza collapsed on top of garment workers inside its factories, killing more than 1,100 people and injuring 2,500. It would be known as the worst ever accident in the garment industry anywhere in the world.

    It was later discovered that 28 brands that sourced clothes from the plaza included Primark, Benetton, Mango, Matalan and Bonmarché, prompting public concern about the working conditions of garment factories around the world which contribute to western high street fashion stores.

    Ethical consumerism encourages people to think about how the products they buy are sourced and produced and which arenot harmful to the environment and society. This can be evidenced through simply purchasing eggs that are free-range or boycotting goods/companies which promote child labour or unsavoury working conditions.

    The range of product areas which fall into the ethical category includes:

    · Banking and finance

    · Energy

    · Fashion

    · Food and drinks

    · Travel and tourism

    Ethical consumerism is a growing market; a recent report from the Co-operative Bank showed a third of UK consumers claiming to be concerned about ethical consumption, with a large number of the public willing to challenge and boycott companies which do not comply with ethical standards.

  • 1. How do you think we should proceed concerning Jones’ February 6, 2005 cocaine possession

    $7.00

    Review the following scenario:

    You are a Wichita Police Department detective working in the major crimes unit, and you are assigned to a joint federal–state–city crime task force working on a number of major drug cases. Over a period of several months, your task force has been able to gather information and make cases on several of the drug suppliers, drug dealers, and drug buyers in the Wichita metropolitan area. The task force is about to complete its mission by filing criminal charges in the federal district court, the state district court, or the Wichita Municipal Court against these various suspects. These suspects will not be arrested until the warrants are issued.

    Your job is to make recommendations concerning which jurisdictions should file the charges on which defendants. You will need to evaluate the criminal statutes and penalties in each jurisdiction and even the rules of evidence to determine where your task force has the best chance of obtaining a conviction and in getting the punishment to fit the crime.

    The memo that you receive from your Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) task force supervisor explains the situation:

    Re: Charging Decisions

    You are the primary investigator in the cases against Jones, Smith, and Thompson. As I review your reports, it appears that each of these cases has strengths and weaknesses that we should evaluate before we determine whether to file charges in the U.S. District Court, the Sedgwick County District Court for the State of Kansas, or the Wichita Municipal Court. I will summarize those strengths and weaknesses here to make sure I am reading your reports correctly. I need you to give me advice on where you think these charges should be brought.

    Jones has been working for you as a confidential informant because you have evidence against him for a February 6, 2005 third possession of cocaine after convictions in 1993 and 1994. He appears to have followed the terms of his deal with you to introduce our undercover agents to his dealer. We have promised not to prosecute for any drug offenses he may commit in the presence of our undercover agent while playing the role of our informant. His assistance has enabled us to get sufficient evidence on Smith and Thompson to obtain convictions. Based on Jones’ two prior convictions for possession of cocaine, we would normally want him to go to federal court, where the maximum sentences are available. However, because of his cooperation, we could file the case in the Sedgwick County, Kansas, and district court under state law. We could even change the charge to a drug paraphernalia offense and send his case to the city of Wichita.

    • How do you think we should proceed concerningJones’ February 6, 2005 cocaine possession? (30%)
    • He will probably plead guilty unless we send him to federal court. Where do you want to file it? (20%)

    Smith has sold cocaine to our undercover agents on two occasions: July 12, 2005 and August 3, 2005. We have found no prior record on this individual, but we believe that he regularly sells to his friends and acquaintances. Your report indicates it took several contacts between Jones and the undercover agent to persuade Smith to make those two sales. It also appears that although we have tried to make additional purchases from Smith, but he will no longer deal to either Jones or our undercover agents. Based upon the evidence, I do not think we will need to require Smith to testify against his friend, Jones, and we should have enough evidence to convict based solely upon the testimony of our undercover agents.

    • Where do you want to file this case against Smith? (20%)

    Thompson appears to be a major dealer but not a local supplier to other dealers in the community. Jones brought our undercover agents to him on several occasions, but Thompson appears to be very wary of obtaining new customers he does not know personally. Thompson has never sold directly to any of our undercover officers, but our officers have personally observed Thompson selling cocaine to Jones on five occasions in March and April of 2006. Your undercover officers indicate that Thompson displays large quantities of cash, keeps major quantities of drugs in his hidden safe in the bedroom floor of his house, and has a number of firearms throughout his house. I believe that if we can get Thompson on these five drug sales made to Jones, we could leverage him to help us get to his supplier. The problem is using Jones, with two prior convictions for cocaine possession and working with us only to save himself, as a witness for the prosecution. I would like to obtain the higher penalties for drug sales and drug possession available in federal court, but we must determine whether Jones’ prior criminal record will be allowed into evidence. His credibility is crucial to getting Thompson convicted, but if the jury hears about his entire past, it might be difficult for them to convict Thompson.

    • Where do you think we should file the case against Thompson? (25%)

    I am going to need you to provide me reasons for each recommendation, and I will forward those to the prosecutors in these courts.
