...Inchoate Offences in Canadian Criminal Law: Conspiracy and Counselling November 9, 2014 The Criminal Code of Canada is a systematically arranged body of law that defines various acts as crimes in Canadian society. It also serves as the legal doctrine that describes the assorted criminal behaviours specific to each criminal offence, as well as the correlating sentence to be administered upon an individual found to be in violation of the law. While some provisions under the Code address crimes that are ultimately perpetrated, such as the offence of robbery found under s.343 (1985), the Code also outlines offences in which a criminal act has yet to be physically carried out, or is “incomplete” (Verdun-Jones, 2011, p.180). These crimes are defined as inchoate offences, and represent a distinctive class of criminal offences in which the actions that precede detrimental conduct but “do not necessarily inflict harmful consequences in and of themselves” are deemed unlawful (Verdun-Jones, 2011, p.180). Consider a case involving the inchoate offence of conspiracy, or specifically, to commit a robbery. Two individuals (for this example named Slammer and Provis) agree to carry out an armed robbery, contrary to the provisions of s.343 of Criminal Code (1985). However, prior to attempting to commit the robbery, both Slammer and Provis are arrested due to the effective surveillance...

...Summary of Law According to the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act of 2009, women in the US are paid 77 cents to every dollar that men are paid (The Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act of 2009, 2009). African-American women on the other hand, earn 64 cents for every dollar, while Latina women earn 55 cents per dollar earned by men. The Equal Pay Act of 1963 (EPA) was created to require that men and women in the same workplace be given equal pay for equal work (U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, n.d.). The forms of pay are also covered by this law and include salary, overtime pay, bonuses, stock options, etc. (U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, n.d.). Unfortunately, today we still experience the unfair practice of unequal pay. To address this issue, in 2009, President Obama signed the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act. The purpose of this act was to restore the discrimination caused by the ruling in the Ledbetter v. Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co case (The Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act of 2009, 2009). The Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act gives individuals the power to challenge pay discrimination and forces employers to eliminate any discriminatory pay practices (The Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act of 2009, 2009). Relevance & Importance The issue of wage gap and discrimination is one that not only affects women globally, but it also affects the economy in the United States. The Center for American Progress published an article explaining the varying reasons why Equal Pay is important...

...The purpose of the summary is to elucidate the importance of a personal ethical perspective and to scrutinize the affiliation between professional and personal ethics in psychology. The summary will analyze by taking into account the results of the Ethics Awareness Inventory (EAI). Ethics Awareness Inventory In today’s society, there is a fine and invisible line among individuals and professionals: ethics. The meaning has become so multifaceted that people’s views about ethics have become unstable and broad. Ethics relate to moral principles to guide individuals and to teach them how to conduct themselves in society by differentiating between rightness and wrongness. The standard of right and wrong defines the aspect of ethics. Ethical dilemmas will arise and will bring a tangle of questions to the professional. The professional will wrestle with questions that will be hard to admit to themselves and others (Pope & Vasquez, 2011). It is human nature to make rushed decisions and mistakes makes humans question their professional and personal ethics. Ethics will help the professional answer those tangled questions. An ethical awareness will let the professional weigh the choices that will affect the lives of colleagues, the public, and the clients. An ethical awareness will free the professional from the restraining webs of fallacy, carelessness, daily pressures, and habit (Pope & Vasquez, 2011). After taking the Ethics Awareness Inventory, a summary of the findings will...

Criminal Justice entails the following in a criminal activity; gathering evidence, apprehending the accused, conducting a trial, making defense, judgment after proving the crime and eventually punishment. There are many crimes that deserve criminal justice (Legal-Explanations.com, 2004-2007).

...William Rivas 02-09-2014 MR. Jones NT1110 A History of BIOS and CMOS The relationship between the BIOS and CMOS is important to the proper functionality of any computer. The BIOS is an integrated circuit which tells the CPU or Processor how to act. BIOS is neither hardware or software and is called firmware. Firmware is essentially software on a “chip” or integrated circuit, “chip” being the slang term. The BIOS is the “network administrator of each individual computer”, in other words, it is the reason all the physical parts i.e. motherboard, keyboard , cd drive, monitor, etcetera are able to communicate with each other. The CMOS chip or Complimentary Metal Oxide Semiconductor chip is a different integrated circuit in which the BIOS is dependent upon for storage of computer configuration settings. CMOS memory is attached to the motherboard upon assembly at the factory and uses DC power, from a battery to store BIOS settings. It is not the same as RAM (Random Access Memory) which is used by the Operating System to access instructions from different software added by the end user to perform whatever function desired. This type of memory is lost when power is shut down on the computer. The history of the CMOS appears to begin somewhere around 1963 in a conference paper by C.T. Sah and Frank Wanlass. In 1965 RCA and Somerville Manufacturing pioneered the production of CMOS technology. IN 1968 they created what would prove to be the forerunner of engine control processors...

...On one specific night, farmer Jones had drunk much more than was healthy and he returned very late, noon the next day. Neglecting to feed the animals, he went straight to sleep. He slept long through the afternoon and evening. The animals had finally had enough. After not being fed for an entire day, they broke into the barn and began to devour the food. Farmer Jones and his men tried in vain to drive back the animals, but after being kicked and bit were finally driven from the farm. The farmer's wife quickly fled after them, leaving the farm to the animals. The victorious animals rejoiced in the successful rebellion and charged over their newfound territory with zest. The pigs, the smartest of the animals, immediately rose to the top of the...
