Conclusion 21 References 22 Appendix 1 – Map of Pakistan 23 Appendix 2 – GLOBE Study 24 Appendix 3 - Supplementary Information 26 Appendix 4 - Important Contact Information 28 1. Introduction Pakistan was one of the two original successor states to British India, which was partitioned along religious lines in 1947. For almost 25 years following independence, it consisted of two separate regions, East and West Pakistan, but now is made up only of the western sector. Both India and Pakistan have laid claim to the Kashmir region, and this territorial dispute led to war in 1949, and again in 1965, 1971, and 1999, and remains unresolved today. Pakistan is situated in the western part of the Indian subcontinent, with Afghanistan and Iran on the west, India on the east, and the Arabian Sea on the south. The name Pakistan is derived from the Urdu words Pak (meaning pure) and stan (meaning country). It is nearly twice the size of California (see map in Appendix 1). Pakistan can be described as the missing link between South Asia and the Middle East. The South Asian side to Pakistan is prevalent in their language and culture. The Middle Eastern side of Pakistan is represented in their religion. If one is selling financial products Pakistan should be viewed as a Middle...

The zip code community of 53218 is no exception. Some of those positive features of the 53218 community has prospective features such as its existing available clinics, multipurpose community centers, such as the Silver Spring Community Center, and numerous outreach programs through organizations including Growing Power and the Milwaukee Outreach Center. Unfortunately, it is still considered one of ten zip codes in the Milwaukee County designated in the “lower socioeconomic status” group as reported in the Milwaukee Health Report (Chen, et al., 2011). The lower SES group, including 53218, as a whole is at risk for (1) a growing rate of obesity related to a poor nutritional lifestyle, (2) a continually decreasing gynecological health among the female population between ages 12 and 19 related to a lack of enforced education and rising teen pregnancy-related issues, and (3) a consistently low level of neighborhood safety related to motor vehicle accidents and rising crime rates. Community Strengths The community of 53218 has three main areas of strength: (1) several available clinics, (2) an abundance...

...Racial Profiling: Black Male Drivers By Baker McNair For Ethical Issues in Criminal Justice Administration Professor Dr. Phillip R. Neely, Jr. Saint Leo University October 15, 2012 Table of Contents Abstract 3 Introduction 4 Literature Review 5 Methodology 6 Data Analysis 7 Conclusion/Recommendation 8 Appendix A 9 Survey 10 References 11 Abstract Racial Profiling Black Males Drivers Over the past several years, the use of race by law enforcement agencies in their policing has received national attention across the United States of America (USA). There is a strong controversy regarding “racial profiling”, centering on police departments’ practices related to traffic stops- examining whether police have targeted drivers on the basis of their race or ethnicity, especially in regards to black male drivers. This poses a potential problem when the very people who take oaths of office to protect and to serve community are seen abusing. Ethically, police officers in the role of crime fighters should focus on all violators of the law regardless of gender, race, creed, or color. They are entrusted to enforce the law, not violate it. Many of law enforcement officers are ethical and professional. However, there are those officers that abuse their power to target individuals of certain ethic groups with unequal enforcement of the law. Enforcing the law based on the color of a person skin is...
