...Etching of Aluminium and Its Alloys for Restoration of Obliterated Marks in Forensic Science Practice and Investigations R. Kuppuswamy Forensic Science Programme, School of Health Sciences, Universiti Sains Malaysia Malaysia 1. Introduction 1.1 The problem A problem of common occurrence in forensic science is the restoration of obliterated serial numbers on the chassis and engine of stolen motor vehicles, firearms, jewellery, valuable tools, and machinery (Nickols, 1956; Wolfer & Lee, 1960; Jackson, 1962; Cunliffe & Piazaa, 1980; De Forest & Gaensslen, 1983; Schaefer, 1987; O’Hara & O’Hara, 1994; Moenssens et al (1995); Heard, 1997; Petterd, 2000; Lyle, 2004; Katterwe, 2006; Seigel, 2007; Mozayani & Noziglia, 2006; Jackson et al (2008); Levin, 2010). Serial numbers or other markings, which are unique to that particular item, are usually marked on the above metal surfaces during the manufacturing process. Criminals alter or obliterate these identification marks during thefts or other illegal uses in order to prevent their identity. On many occasions a fraudulent number would be introduced after removing the original one. In abandoned vehicles all serial numbers are verified in order to detect alterations in the identity of the vehicle (Svensson et al, 1981). Sometimes the serial numbers on firearms are removed more professionally making it hard to distinguish whether the numbers are original or not (Shoshani et al, 2001). Restoration of the original obliterated numbers provides...

...these buildings are in a bad shape but the government is working to preserve them. Although the pace of redevelopment is slow, the fact that work is going on gives a person relief that the historic buildings of the city will be preserved. One such building is the Merewether tower; this iconic structure is one of few structures that are in a good condition, but sources claim that from the inside, it is slowly being degraded. Once the gateway to the city, it has been forgotten by many although its name is very common.

...Introduction: Policing today has proven to be effective after years of improvements and changes. This paper will discuss the significant features in history in Japan and the United States. There are many types of police operations. Policing in general has a wide range of different kinds of strategies and areas. I will discuss the development of both policing styles as well as how implementation can affect both countries. Japan: Japan is known for it low crime rate and its unique policing styles and homogeneous society. Sam Bacca, Chief of Police in Albuquerque New Mexico stated, “This is police paradise”, while he was visiting Japan. (Rebenfien, 1989) “Every law enforcement officer would love to have a community like this”, he continued. (Rebenfien, 1989) Chief Baca and many others offers came to Japan to observe their police system and bring those ideas back to their community. The Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications, Statistics Bureau, Director-General for Policy Planning and Statistical Research and Training Institute reports Japan's total population in 2011 was 127.80 million and total density measured 343 persons per square kilometer in 2010. Japan has endured many trial and tribulations has a country, having to rebuild after wars and conflict. During the fourteen century short lived imperial rulers, followed by a new government established by the Ashikaja family, lasting for two centuries.

...GE BANGLADESH Green Economy: A Revolution for Economic Movement in Bangladesh Review of Literature: Reaching in the 21st century, while the whole world is moving towards the merge of development, on the contrary deeply concerned about its sustainability as the way of this economy is traditional and hampered as well. The costs of fossil-fuel based brown economy on socio-economy and environment, known as the way of traditional, have been remarked all over the world. These concerned observations motive people to think of an alternative economic system which is called green economy or environment friendly economy. This thinking has been reflected in many literatures by many persons and organizations as follows: United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), noted in 2008 “There is growing recognition that humanity faces a severe environmental emergency. Modern economies have been built on an unsustainable foundation. Activities ranging from agriculture and mining to manufacturing, services, and transportation rely on fossil fuels, generate copious amounts of pollution and waste, and undermine critical ecosystems, ecoservices, and life support while Green economy is one which ensures human and social wellbeing with reduced environmental risks and ecological scarcities.” In its simplest expression, a green economy can be thought of as one which is low carbon, resource efficient and socially inclusive. Practically speaking, a green economy is one whose growth in income and employment...

...Romeo and Juliet Paper Imagine this; a Shakespeare movie, set in a modern day, run-down city. The city seems to have absolutely no shortage of gangs and mobs that are running the streets. Hotrod cars along with pistols and assault rifles make their presence ever so evident. With a wrong slip of the tongue, gun fire erupts in the streets of Verona. This was the context for one of my favorite movies, Romeo + Juliet directed by Baz Luhrmann back in 1996. William Shakespeare has written poetry and play-scripts that will continue to inspire people for centuries to come. Whether it be on a stage in your local high school or in the Broadway/Hollywood spot light on the big screen. William Shakespeare is known as possibly the greatest writer of the English language and deservingly so. Unfortunately Shakespeare’s plays have been subject to change and scrutiny throughout the years. When the play was first being performed the representations were different than they are today as males played both parts of Romeo & Juliet. The plays representation was changed when women were finally allowed on stage after some changes to the culture and society. Even Hollywood filmmakers have done a remake of Romeo & Juliet in which the movie isn’t even set in old English times but rather in modern day. William Shakespeare’s play Romeo & Juliet has remained the same as its message transcends time, yet its representation has changed as English society has changed. The play Romeo & Juliet...

The population grows fast simultaneously the number of cars the people use in their everyday life. As stated in the report of Wards Auto, the global number of cars exceeded 1.015 billion as of 2010 and the OECD's International Transport Forum forecast that the number of cars worldwide would reach 2.5 billion by 2050. Nowadays, living in the community with things having high technology people always choose to do their jobs more easily. They’re always tend to depend to other people to make things easier such as cleaning their cars. They prefer on going to car wash to pay for cleaning their cars rather than cleaning it themselves because, going to carwash makes them lives more easily and at the same time they also treat their cars. Today's modern industrial environment the surface of a vehicle is subjected to daily abuse. The sun beats down on your car all day every day, pollutants and dirt deeply embed themselves into your paint, and minute slivers of metal become lodged into your paint which eventually rust. If you have owned a white vehicle or have observed one then you may have noticed specks of rust. Those metal slivers are the cause. Car washing techniques vary amongst individual vehicle owners. Car washing is an essential function of preventive maintenance. Keeping the exterior of a vehicle clean prevents rust and oxidation and also reduces the occurrence of fine...

...Replicas and Forgeries Chris Rohr Western Governors University Replicas and Forgeries Fakes, forgeries and replicas have been created for centuries. Determining the difference between them has been an issue of growing importance. Hundreds of books have been written on the subject and there are professions and organizations built around determining the true nature of an object. For the purposes of this paper and object may be a work of art, a document or an artifact. A replica is a copy of an original object that is not presented as the original. The replica is not considered the original even if it is made of the same materials and constructed in the same fashion as the original object. A forgery or a fake is a copy of an object that is represented as the original object. The forgery or a fake is not considered the original even if it is made of the same materials and constructed in the same fashion as the original object. According to some experts determining the authenticity and originality of an object is becoming more and difficult “...we have become so immersed in the world of mediated representations that we can no longer tell the difference between authentic and the artificial” (Knight & Long, 2004, p. 2). The differences which separate replicas from forgeries or fakes are deception in representing the object, altering the value of the object and the intent in the creation of the object. The intent to deceive the true representative nature of an object is...

...Technology University Road Karachi-75300, Pakistan Sir Syed University of Engg & Technology University Road Karachi-75300, Pakistan Sir Syed University of Engg & Technology University Road Karachi-75300, Pakistan ABSTRACT Due to the increase in the number of vehicles day by day, traffic congestions and traffic jams are very common. One method to overcome the traffic problem is to develop an intelligent traffic control system which is based on the measurement of traffic density on the road using real time video and image processing techniques. The theme is to control the traffic by determining the traffic density on each side of the road and control the traffic signal intelligently by using the density information. This paper presents the algorithm to determine the number of vehicles on the road. The density counting algorithm works by comparing the real time frame of live video by the reference image and by searching vehicles only in the region of interest (i.e., road area). The computed vehicle density can be compared with other direction of the traffic in order to control the traffic signal smartly. Keywords Traffic density count, image processing, intelligent controlling of traffic. 1. INTRODUCTION The number of vehicles on the road increases day by day therefore for the best utilization of existing road capacity, it is important to manage the traffic flow efficiently. Traffic congestion has become a serious issue especially in the modern...

...Abstract This paper explores new marketing strategies initiated by Toyota Motor Company (“Toyota”) to improve the trust and overhaul of the company’s image in response to a $10M recall in 2010. The vehicles that were recalled resulted from an introduction of acceleration-related accidents for which Toyota encountered hundreds of lawsuits (Jacobs & Chase 2014). Naturally, the recalls and lawsuits threatened to tarnish the company’s image. Thus, in an effort to reconstruct this persona, the company improved in its total quality management (“TQM”) program which resulted in many new marketing strategies including, global advertising campaigns, technological developments, quality and safety reforms (Kozaki, Oura & Amasaka, 2012). Specifically, this included one of the new marketing initiatives included an international computer database being able to track all repairs, while decreasing customer complaints from months, to days (Jacobs & Chase, 2014). Additionally, Toyota accommodated the advertising strategy by eliminating national advertising campaigns for which they promoted the cars for safety, dependability, and reliability. The automaker also reorganized its just-in-time (“JIT”) and the Toyota Production System (“TPS”) production processes (Amasaka, 2009). Toyota announced a new managing director to restore and overlook all safety-related concerns, in addition to the company building Swift Market Analysis Response Teams (“SMART”), teams responsible for finding safety defects...

...Ethical Responsibility with Oil Companies Lisa Dauwen National American University Abstract There are processes that oil companies need to go through to make sure that they are operating ethically. They include protecting the environment, researching alternative sustainable energies, and making sure that they are allowing for economic growth. This paper will look at 3 oil companies that are familiar to the United States. The paper will also look at the recent Gulf of Mexico oil spill and look at any ethical concerns. It will discuss how an oil company can follow corporate social responsibility (CSR) tools to lessen their environmental footprint. Ethical Responsibility with Oil Companies All companies in the world have the responsibility to operate in a manner that follows the laws of the government. All of these companies also have a social responsibility to follow ethical laws. Along with all the other types of companies, oil companies have the social responsibilities to protect the environment, to research sustainable energies, to safely explore and produce in new areas, and they also have responsibility of fostering economic growth. It is important for oil companies, perhaps more important than other companies, to hold up to these social responsibilities because if they don’t find new ways to produce energy, future generations could run out. There has been much talk in the last few months regarding oil companies and if they are being ethical when making decisions...
