...Nikki Jones CRJS 404 AIU - Unit 2 - Individual Project Justice For Joe September 2014 Abstract A town holds a bar in that bar there are people drinking. Three customers who have a past in the area of an old relationship and a new relationship involving the same woman. The three people heave problem; this leads to quarrel things get heated and out of control. The customer crowd around to see the action. A Small Town holds the working people who like to kick back and enjoy some adult beverages at the well-known hang out Turn-a-Round Lounge. This is a public bar as any public place there are can be great time and also drama. That are time when drama goes too far and people are harmed on this night harm turned in to a murder. At one time, Joe had a relationship with women named Michelle their relationship ended. Michelle started a relationship with a man named Sam. Joe completed his working day and stopped in for a beer. There was a nice crowd in the bar of 20 people. Joe and Sam began to a verbal conflict; this grew to be a physical fight, and then Sam pulled his knife on Joe stabbing his chest and slit his aorta. When a fight breaks out the natural reaction to the public to gather around and see what is happening, this is the same reaction that people have to a car accident. (Park, 2010). The after effect also followed once the fight was finished in this case Joe was no longer able to fight; everyone disappeared, besides a select few. The bartender was a Good Samaritan...

The bartender was a Good Samaritan and applied pressure to Joe's wound and performed CPR in the effort to keep him alive until the EMT’s could take over. The Bartender felt the ethical need to attempt to continue or save Joes life (American Heart Association, 2006). Of those who scatter from the bar 2 of the individuals were Sam and Michelle. They personally may have left the scene. However, they did leave pieces of them self in ways of traceable DNA and apparent track of their personal known they were there. Of the remind proof that Michelle and Sam had been there found was bloody footprints a total of 3 to be exact. The bar's parking lot is not paved there for it is dirt so everyone who drove left tire tracks. Meaning Sam and Michelle left their foot prints in the dirt as well as tire tracks in the dirt. The couple vanished quickly leaving their tracks simple to find. The police are able to prove there was an investigation to take beyond the bar Sam, Joe, and Michelle were definitely at the scene and that Joe was dead to get the judge’s approval for a search warrant. The search warrant granted the entry of Michelle's...

...GSK Corporate Responsibility Report 2013 62 Taking a scientific approach to sustainability The sourcing of raw materials and the complex, energyintensive chemical processes involved in transforming them into our products accounts for around half of our value chain carbon footprint. Over the last five years, we have been using innovative technology to reduce environmental impacts associated with manufacturing active pharmaceutical ingredients – the substances in our drugs that treat or prevent illness. Following trials in Jurong, Singapore, teams at the eight facilities where we produce active ingredients are implementing holistic improvement plans which are bringing significant environmental benefits and cost reductions. Infrastructure investments included installing a biogas plant at Irvine, UK, a combined heat and power facility in Worthing, UK, and a photo oxidation system for waste treatment in Singapore. Our site in Cork, Ireland, where we are now bio-treating waste and recovering the energy produced, achieved zero waste to landfill for the third year running in 2013, and has cut water use by 57% and carbon emissions by 41% since 2008. in the world). This innovative process will significantly cut our carbon emissions by reducing cooling requirements, as well as producing less organic waste. Many of the improvements we are making take time to We are also making changes implement. But across all to the chemical processes ...

...growing seasons change. However, agriculture also contributes to these effects through emissions from fertilizers, water wastage and biological processes. A third of vegetables and fruit consumed in the EU are produced by protected horticulture. As 90% of the greenhouse growers are small and medium enterprises (SMEs), they have to compete with cheaper labor, production costs and regular supply from producers outside the EU. The EU-funded EUPHOROS project increased the efficient use of inputs such as fertilizers and pesticides in protected horticulture. The four-year study, completed in August 2012, developed a sustainable greenhouse system that does not fully rely on fossil fuels for energy and minimizes the carbon footprint of agriculture. The project achieved a 50% reduction in the amount of energy used as well as a sizeable saving of chemical inputs: a third less fertilizers and a tenth less pesticides. The result was a number of structured components that can be used by farmers across the EU, three of which contain innovative tools and systems to reduce energy, water, fertilizer, pesticide consumption and waste. Another intervention optimizes the growing environment, developing innovative and robust monitoring tools. A theoretical analysis was also conducted throughout the project to quantify the reduction of resource inputs and carbon footprint delivered by each component, together with financial and economic consequences. The project identified several energy-saving areas...

...Name Tutor Course Date Ecological footprint Introduction The planet Earth is the only planet that supports and sustains human life. The human activities carried out on the planet are gradually making the planet unfavorable to live on (Perman 81). Ecology involves the study of relationships between living organisms and their usual natural environment. This paper will define ecological footprint, present a deep understanding of the ecological footprint and show how it applies in measuring the peoples’ effects to the environment. The paper will also explain how the ecological footprint can be used in making choices that go in line with people’s lifestyles. The principles of ecological footprint date back to literatures related to geography, ecology and economics. However, the idea of the earth’s ecological footprint has been present since early 90’s (Wackernagel 35). William Rees in 1992 produced the first academic publication on ecological footprint. The concept of ecological footprint and calculation criteria was later developed by Mathis Wackernagel as a PhD dissertation under the supervision of Rees at British Columbia University in Vancouver. Originally, the concept was called the appropriated carrying capacity. Rees later came up with the ecological footprint term in order to ensure that the concept is accessible. The ecological footprint in the planet has transpired as the earth’s vital gauge of the individual’s demand on the environment and the...

Answer: My ecological footprint is 30.40gha. If everyone one the planet live my lifestyle, we will need 1.93 Earths. Figure 1. Ecological Footprint calculated with www.myfootprint.org. B. Describe the principles and assumptions used in the metho. Answer: The Ecological Footprint Quiz estimates the area of land and ocean required to support our consumption of food, goods, services, housing, and energy and assimilate our wastes. The ecological footprint is expressed in "global hectares" (gha) or "global acres" (ga), which are standardized units that take into account the differences in biological productivity of various ecosystems impacted by our consumption activities. Our footprint is broken down into four consumption categories: carbon (home energy use and transportation), food, housing, and goods and services. Our footprint is also broken down into four ecosystem types or biomes: cropland, pastureland, forestland, and marine fisheries. My life style currently is: a family of three living in a family house of around 200 square meter, own a car, healthy food diet, and once per year family trip. C.

...some video analysis done by Iiboshi and his team, new information can now be plugged into the method for drawing the path of the high jumper's footprints on the ground. The original article by Dapena on this subject was in issue #131 of Track Coach. From this I gather elite jumpers have an unusual sense of finding the right spot to jump from. No matter what the differences are ... they get the runup to work. It is similar to Finnish javelin throwers, who may differ in the first part of the run, but who all seem to know what to do in the last two steps. The path of the footprints in a high jump runup can be idealized as a straight line perpendicular to the bar, followed by a circular arc which ends at the takeoff (Figure I). Such a path is de fined by the position of the takeoff foot (its x and y coordinates), the angle between the bar and the final direction of the footprints' path (f), and the radius of the curve (r). A method for drawing the path of the footprints on the ground was described in previous papers. (See Dapena, et aI., 1993; Dapena, 1995a.) However, the numerical values needed for the implementation of this method were based on limited information. Recent work by Iiboshi, et al. (1994) provides data that can help us to improve the design of the runup. They used a special video analysis technique to measure the footprint locations of the top eight men and seven of the top eight women in the high jump finals of the 1991 World Championships. The last successful jump...

...IMPACT OF MEDIA ON SOCIETY Media has continuously pervaded and defined society and has advanced with technology. The traditional forms of media propagation including television, newspapers, posters and mail remain as efficient as before the introduction of newer methods. Email, websites, e-zines and social online media have replaced expensive media production such as magazines and photographic paper. Media imparts and shapes society’s opinion on the subjects of politics, business, culture and sports. It reflects on the freedom of speech and freedom of expression within a country. The positive aspects of free media far outweigh the negative effects that may occur. In the case of internet based media, control is difficult. Control of the Internet has however been imposed in China. Media has the ability to bring relief to disaster prone areas while at the same time it may be responsible for nurturing prejudice against certain regions. For example, the perception that Africa is an extremely underdeveloped region although it is actually bustling with megacities. In the world of social media, gossip columns have the potential to ruin lives of individuals or boost their popularity. Advertising through modern media has led to the rise of fortune 500 companies. It has been argued that media has resulted in a generation of couch potatoes who rarely engage in outdoor activities. It has become rarer to find someone who has good handwriting since typing is now the preferred skill...

...The twentieth century saw astonishing changes in many areas, one of the most expressive changes was the population that increased 3.5 times reaching 6 billion. The premise of this book is that the twenty-first century will be a time of change no less dramatic than that twentieth century, but the changes will be of an entirely different nature. We will no longer be able to depend on the input of energy from fossil fuels, partly because oil production is set to peak and start its inevitable decline, threatening everything that depends on it. Increasingly, sustainability becomes a struggle not only to ensure that future generations have the means to survive, but also to meet the needs of the present in the deteriorating conditions of the world, needing a careful plan to transition our society. To walk in the correct path is required sustainability literacy which, in this book, indicates necessary attributes to survive and thrive in the declining conditions of the world. Ray Anderson provides an example of a business that, with ecological intelligence, changed to a company that rents out carpet tiles, reuses them when no longer required, replacing only those that have worn out, and even then recycling the discards using energy generated from wind and the sun. To explore the skills demanded of people in the twenty-first century, this book brings leading specialists from many areas, and the interaction with them is provided by workshops firstly exploring skills such as social conscience...

...The rapid increase of population is very threatening to the limited carrying capacity of our earth. Our ecological footprint already disastrous will become much more detrimental with the staggering population growth.1 Our ecological footprint is largely comprised of three main elements of consumption: food, wood, and land. However, components such as energy consumption also need to be accounted for.2 Food availability, to a great extent, determines the carrying capacity for every population of species. The growth of industrial agriculture has caused a tremendous increase in food production around the world.3 Be that as it may, these practises consist of mechanization and fertilization both of which are dependent on petroleum. The United States uses 12% of its oil intake on food production alone. As the amount of oil in the world begins to decrease, so will the production of food.4 As Thomas Robert Malthus quotes in his An Essay on the Principle of population, “... the power of population is indefinitely greater than the power in the earth to produce subsistence for man.” 5 Malthus explains that the production of food cannot keep up with the rapidly increasing population.6 Wood consumption includes all the paper, packaging, wood furniture and firewood that we use day after day. 7 This part of the ecological footprint also needs to include the wood products that an individual uses in the systems and organizations that support them. Today, the world’s consumption of ...
