...Most of us would be quite flattered to find an entry about us on the Wikipedia, an online encyclopedia where anybody can create or edit an entry. Not so for John Seigenthaler. His Wikipedia bio said: John Seigenthaler Sr. was the assistant to Attorney General Robert Kennedy in the early 1960′s. For a brief time, he was thought to have been directly involved in the Kennedy assassinations of both John, and his brother, Bobby. Nothing was ever proven. In a USA Today editorial Seigenthaler begins by quoting the false bio and then writes: I have no idea whose sick mind conceived the false, malicious “biography” that appeared under my name for 132 days on Wikipedia, the popular, online, free encyclopedia whose authors are unknown and virtually untraceable. . . . At age 78, I thought I was beyond surprise or hurt at anything negative said about me. I was wrong. One sentence in the biography was true. I was Robert Kennedy’s administrative assistant in the early 1960s. I also was his pallbearer. It was mind-boggling when my son, John Seigenthaler, journalist with NBC News, phoned later to say he found the same scurrilous text on Reference.com and Answers.com. Seigenthaler explains how he tried to track down the person who posted the information: I phoned Jimmy Wales, Wikipedia’s founder and asked, “Do you … have any way to know who wrote that?” “No, we don’t,” he said. Representatives of the other two websites said their computers are programmed to copy data verbatim from Wikipedia, never...

Officer B observes him drop the bag and persues the suspect on foot alongside Officer A. The officers quickly acted and hunted down the suspect in his attempt to flee the scene. Officers speedily apprehended the suspect. The Supreme Court held that excessive force claims brought under section 1983 are not governed by a single, generic stan-dard.9 Analysis for this type of claim must begin with identification of the specific constitutional right allegedly violated by the use of force. * After the suspect was apprehended, (Name now known now as John Doe) the officers scurry back to the squad car for further questioning.

I also don’t see word limit for this assignment so I kept it short and sweet since, as a new hire at Wal-Mart, most of the company history is detailed in a view that you would see during the training. I have written this message aimed more towards newly hired Assistant Managers who would most likely receive a greetings e-mail from the HR department or directly from the Store Manage themselves.

...I was not fortunate enough to see Se7en in the movie theaters but I have seen the movie more than once since its original release. I think this time was the first time I watched it differently though, I usually watch movies in anticipation of what is coming next, what will happen to the characters next. I have found over the past 15 weeks in this class, that by always watching movies like that, I’m missing out on some of the enjoyment of the movies themselves. Since I already knew what was going to happen in the movie, I watched it for moment it was in, not what was going to be. It was the first time I watched a movie for what is going on now as opposed to waiting for what is to come. This was also the first time that the movie had a very different feel to me, it was as if I knew what was going on. Therefore, I did not have to pay as much attention to the plot and could focus more on some of things that we have talked about in class, like the signs and moods set by the director. The movie had a different feel to it regarding the location and place in time that it occurred. It could have been anywhere, any major city or even a just a major concentration of people without being defined as a city. The character, plot, and events did not seem dated, the only thing that had a dated feel to it was the technology, even that can be viewed a couple different ways. It could be the past where beepers, fax machines, and limited internet access are the cutting edge of technology, or it could...

It is this kind of reputation in a company that has prompted me to forward my resume. Over a span of 20 years, I have provided professional services in a myriad of industry segments, encompassing the globe. My most-recent work history includes a 10-year stint with XYZ Corporation. XYZ is one of our nation’s largest environmentally conscious, independent power producers. My professional tenure has provided me with years of comprehensive business experience working and negotiating with senior-level management and key personnel at many of the Fortune 500 companies. Including companies like; Boeing, Kimberly-Clark, Johnson & Johnson, and Calpine, to mention only a few. While many of these endeavors have been challenging, they have also been rewarding. They have provided me with continual growth and success, both personally and professionally. However, most of these professional endeavors have required extensive travel and ultimately time away from home. Therefore, I have made the decision to pursue a career path that is rewarding, professionally and personally. While this decision has not been easy, it has afforded me the opportunity to further my education and to pursue a position at a local company. You will certainly not regret...

...pleasure that I recommend Jane Doe. Having known Jane for nine years, I can say with confidence that she is a person of quality; both in character and ability. I first came to know Jane in 2005 as a member of The Republican Association. As founder and president of the association, I found Jane to be an invaluable asset. Ms. Doe aided in fundraising, marketing and recruitment for the organization. Recruitment in particular was one of Jane’s strong points. Her command of interpersonal communication skills allowed her to welcome and educate newcomers to our association and ultimately increase our membership. I have no doubt that Ms. Doe’s ability to communicate will aide in caring for her future patients. After all, what skill is more important than communication for a dental hygienist? Communication is crucial for a comfortable and high-quality dental experience. Furthermore, our organization went on to foster good relations with the then mayor, Mr. Jim Ryan and as a result Kent High School was chosen as the location for the 2006 State of The City Address. Ms. Doe played an active role in helping to establish the credibility of our association, which helped lead to such honorable recognition. I remain very grateful for her efforts. Jane Doe is a kind, capable and intelligent individual. Ms. Doe has proven invaluable on many occasions and I believe whole heartedly that she will be a fantastic addition to your dental hygiene program. Ms. Doe will do well and represent the...

...Janelle Evans is heading to court to plead her case in front of a jury on charges of assault and battery, according to Radar Online, Dec. 11, 2015. Janelle is accused of throwing a glass at Jessica Henry who happens to be the girlfriend of Janelle’s ex-fiancé Nathan Griffith. The jury trial will be held sometime next year and Janelle along with her attorney will be notified by mail when the date is determined. The incident allegedly happened at Janelle’s home when Nathan arrived to gather his things, bringing his new girlfriend along. Janelle told the police officer that when she went outside, Jessica got out of the truck causing Janelle to fear for her life. She said the jar was filled with water, but when she threw the water at Jessica, the jar slipped out of her hand. Jessica’s reflexes were excellent as she caught the jar and threw it back at Janelle. The jar hit Janelle in the back with such force the jar broke. Even though this explanation sounds feasible, the police officer investigating the scene and taking the report does not believe her story. The broken glass was not in the right place to support Janelle’s story. The officer wrote, “This would have made the broken glass somewhere farther in the driveway, “I looked and did not observe any redness or any other injury to the arrestee’s back.” The report also said, “while he (Nathan) was loading up his property into the bed of his truck, he looked up and observed the arrestee [Evans] throw something threw [sic] the –...
