...harassment. The case called “The Mysterious Roses.” Rob Arnold, the Director of Sales, I must have the ability to make decision that can will affect the company’s image that I am employed by, also the individuals of the company. In the simulation they are several ethical decisions that are made through several repeatable models that can provide a desirable outcome of the dilemmas. The ethical lens uses different perspectives from each different dilemma. I am able to arrive at this by a range of perspectives with favored outcome providing an appropriate ethical position for the appropriate situation. In the first dilemma I have learned that one of the employee’s Bill Witherspoons actions is perceived as sexual harassment toward another employee of the company, Gail Domier, roses are left at the employees desk with no notes stating who they are from. Mr. Witherspoon has approached you informally explaining to you what has been going on (The Mysterious Roses and Cold Feet, 2002-2007). Now Ms. Domier has requested a confidential meeting with Mr. Arnold the dilemma that the supervisor needs to concentrate on is he can maintain a level of confidentiality of Ms. Domier meeting and how to resolve it without exposing any of the participants’ involved. I also advised Gayle that I would be able to keep the meeting confidential between us but advised to review the company handbook before the meeting. The major issues that need avoiding are a possible sexual harassment which will not just affect...

...Chapter 1 THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND The terms less-than-lethal, less lethal, and non-lethal are frequently and inappropriately used interchangeably. Almost anything can become lethal if used improperly or if circumstances are extremely unlucky; weapons that are considered to be of Non-Lethal force only decrease the odds of deadly injury. The court addresses the use of less lethal force in the “objective reasonableness standard,” where questions regarding excessive use of force are to be judged from the perspective of a reasonable officer coping with a tense, fast-evolving situation. (Graham, Conner, 2009) This revised standard alleviates some of the “Monday morning quarterbacking” that would otherwise result and respects that officers possess sound judgment skills. (Graham, Conner, 2009) In some arrest situations and other law enforcement activities, the use of force may be required to protect the safety of the officer or the public. Occasionally, the threat to an officer or the public justifies the use of deadly force an amount of force that is likely to cause either serious bodily injury or death to another person. (Graham, Conner, 2009) When use of force is required, but deadly force may not be appropriate, law enforcement officers may employ less-lethal weapons to gain control of a subject. Less-lethal weapons are designed to induce a subject to submit or to comply with directions. These weapons give law enforcement officers the ability to protect the safety of...

...BUSINESS LAW: CASE ANALYSIS 1 On October 15, 2003, at approximately 3:00 p.m., the M/V Andrew J. Barberi, en route from Manhattan to Staten Island went off its course and collided at full speed into a concrete maintenance pier just 1800 feet south of the slip at which it was intended to dock. That day the vessel, with a 6000 passenger capacity, was carrying nearly 1500 people. It traveled on a day that was clear but windy, one deemed acceptable for travel. Traveling at a typical speed of 14-16 knots the ferry had the ability to come to a full stop in 43 seconds in a space of 420 feet. On this day the ferry was commanded by Captain Michael Gansas who in turn assigned Assistant Captain Richard Smith to the helm. Both men met the requirements of the coast Guard regulations as certified as first-class pilots and both were licensed. Both men had consistently received positive performance reviews over more than ten years of experience with the Staten Island Ferry. Smith steered the ferry, accompanied by deckhand, Joseph Selch, who was assigned as a lookout, while Ganas, leaving Smith alone at the helm without reservation, was near the rear of the vessel making preparations for a future Coast Guard inspection. Selch and Smith carried on normal conversations throughout the trip. With just 3000 feet, to be traveled in two minutes, left to the journey, Selch was released from his lookout duties to go and prepare for docking. Smith was left alone in the pilothouse...

...The 21st Century Jet The Boeing 777 Multimedia Case Study Shad H Shokralla Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Mechanical Engineering from the University of California at Berkeley December 18, 1995 Research Advisor: Professor Alice M. Agogino Berkeley Expert Systems Technology Laboratory On-line Version URL: main.html Abstract Multimedia case studies have been shown to be an effective way of documenting and teaching best design practices. This is a case study of the changes that the Boeing Commercial Aircraft Company made in the way they design and build airplanes. The 777 is the first jet that Boeing has created using this methodology. The changes were very dramatic and encompassed many areas, including technical, organizational and administrative changes. Boeing is touting the 777 as more than just a product, but as a new process. Although the technical innovations were numerous, what made the 777 project unique were the other changes Boeing instituted for this design/build effort. It was the first 100% digitally designed and pre-assembled airplane made by Boeing. Concurrent engineering, the concept of “Working Together”, was an integral part of the new philosophy and nearly 240 Design/Build teams were used through-out the process. The teams included design, manufacturing, customer and supplier personnel from the start. Designing and building a new...

...The contains six stanzas, each with four lines. A four-line stanza is called a quatrain. The poem was first published in 1890 in Poems, Series 1, a collection of Miss Dickinson's poems that was edited by two of her friends, Mabel Loomis Todd and Thomas Wentworth Higginson. The editors titled the poem "Chariot." Commentary and Theme “Because I Could Not Stop for Death” reveals Emily Dickinson’s calm acceptance of death. It is surprising that she presents the experience as being no more frightening than receiving a gentleman caller—in this case, her fiancé (Death personified). The journey to the grave begins in Stanza 1, when Death comes calling in a carriage in which Immortality is also a passenger. As the trip continues in Stanza 2, the carriage trundles along at an easy, unhurried pace, perhaps suggesting that death has arrived in the form of a disease or debility that takes its time to kill. Then, in Stanza 3, the author appears to review the stages of her life: childhood (the recess scene), maturity (the ripe, hence, “gazing” grain), and the descent into death (the setting sun)–as she passes to the other side. There, she experiences a chill because she is not warmly dressed. In fact, her garments are more appropriate for a wedding, representing a new beginning, than for a funeral, representing an end. Her description of the grave as her “house” indicates how comfortable she feels about death. There, after centuries pass, so pleasant is her new life that time seems to stand...

...Company’s Market Segments NIKE, INC Dessey Holm MBA6012 u03a1 Due: June 08, 2014 Email: des69sey@hotmail.com Professor: Ted Framan Market segments is a division of a market into smaller submarkets based on characteristics that are in common. For example, there is a segment for noncustomers, customers, level of service, behaviors, and demographics to name a few divisions. In the marketing world, dividing into smaller segments allows businesses to develop a marketing strategy tailored to the individual segments based on their needs and wants. (Marshall & Johnston, 2010) To uncover which market segments that show most promise for the purpose of development is the goal of target marketing. “The decision to invest in developing a segment into a target market represents an important turning point in the marketing planning process because, from this point forward, the direction of a firm’s marketing strategies and related programs are set.” (Marshall & Johnston, 2010) Nike’s Internal Environment of Marketing A company’s internal environment in terms of marketing can include but not limited to marketing capabilities, manufacturing abilities, and distribution capacities. It involves most functions and capabilities inside of the company. To influence positive change within Nike Inc.’s supply chain, they use a variety of approaches. By building an empowered and equitable workforce they hope to add change that is beneficial to the company. “Today we’re in the...

...deeper though, and you can still see the same elements of cruelty and greed that have characterized this area since the first settlers arrived, hoping to find gold, harvest lumber, or trap fish and game. In the present day, ruthless opportunists still lurk in the shadows of this rich and fertile land. Some are locals, seeking to line their pockets. Some are politicians, looking for support and voting advantages. All of the ruthless and lawless behavior that characterized the Gold Rush has now been dressed up in legal jargon, and underhanded maneuvers behind closed doors. Only this time, the greed for gold has become the greed for water, a natural resource of ever increasing value. The players may have changed, but the greed is just as ruthless as a gunfight in the Wild West. Take, for example, the Klamath River, one of six rivers in Humboldt County. The Environmental Protection Agency reports that “The Klamath River basin which covers 10.5 million acres in Southern Oregon and Northern California is home to six federally recognized tribes and several National Wildlife Refuges, Parks and Forests. The Klamath River has been the third largest producer of salmon on the West Coast, following closely behind the Sacramento and Columbia Rivers. Major tributaries to the Klamath include the Shasta, Scott, Salmon and Trinity Rivers.” (US Environmental Protection Agency 1) In 2001, controversy erupted when drought conditions forced farming irrigation to shut down to preserve...

...of Americas most loved cities was attacked and reawakened to the real world. Conspiracy theorists have tried to debunk the theories and misconceptions about the horrific morning of 9/11. Fortunately, after 7 years of analysis and research we figured out that the conspiracy is true, science has undoubtedly debunked this mystery and everything finally makes sense. On September 11, at 8:45 am on a clear Tuesday morning, an American airliner Boeing 767 loaded with 20,000 gallons of jet fuel crashed into the north tower of the World Trade Center in New York City near the 80th floor. According to the National Institute of Standards and Technology the North tower was completely obliterated by a single commercial Boeing airliner jet. While studies show that the height of the impacts on the North tower to cause it to collapse is a complete fallacy. The truth is that the top 20 floors could not have possibly disemboweled the remaining sturdy 90 floors. Even though the Boeing was transporting 20,000 gallons of fuel, which certainly caused plenty of damage and fire to the initial impact on the 80th floor. Jet fuel burns at 1,800 degrees Fahrenheit while steel melting point is 2,750 degrees Fahrenheit. The top 20 floors of the WTC acted as a hammer in the sense that the building collapsed as the hammer from the 80th down smashing at the bottom 90 floors as the nail. As it crashes downward onto the bottom 90 like the hammer would strike a nail, it would have came to a halt....

...Study on Evolving Medicated Footwear for Diabetic Patients by: Md. Tareq Bin Satter Chapter I Page 1 of 85 Study on Evolving Medicated Footwear for Diabetic Patients by: Md. Tareq Bin Satter 1.1 Introduction Foot is the important part of the body. If someone has diabetes he/she is more likely to have to foot problems. Diabetes can damage your nerves. This, in turn, may make you less able to feel an injury or pressure on the skin of your foot. You may not notice a foot injury until severe damage or infection develops. This may led to gangrene in the through simple injuries eventually amputation will be the final choice. So a diabetes patient always has to wear specialized footwear that can protect the foot in more sophisticated way. Diabetes changes your body's ability to fight infections. Damage to blood vessels causes because of diabetes results in less blood and oxygen getting to your feet. Because of this, small sores or breaks in the skin may become deeper skin ulcers. The affected limb may need to be amputated when these skin ulcers do not improve, get larger, or go deeper into the skin. Worldwide, 50% of all leg amputations happen to people living with diabetes. In India, an estimated 50,000 amputations are carried out every year due to diabetes related foot problems. By employing reconstructive and corrective footwear, to remove the high pressure points, a large number of such amputations can be prevented. Thus the patient can lead a near normal...
