...Amy Smith CRIM 201 Assignment 7 Prosecutor pretending to be a public defender- This one is a hard one for me to decide which way to go. On the one hand him pretending to be a public defender did get the accused to surrender without further incident. On the other hand the prosecutor lying to the accused could have made things go horribly wrong. This is where the what if’s come into play. The big what if is- What if the accused found out mid-negotiation that the prosecutor was not who he said he was-this could have resulted in a shoot-out or a hostage situation or worse. Bottom line-the police should not have allowed the prosecutor to pretend to be someone he wasn’t. In my opinion this was totally unethical. Are the following actions of a prosecutor legal? Ethical? Why or why not? Authorizing arrest of one brother for drugs in order to get at the other brother. My opinion-completely unethical. The one brother should not be used against the other to gain information and loose his college scholarship. The prosecutor needs to find other means to get at the other brother he wants instead of jeopardizing the future of the innocent one. I don’t think it is legal. Announcing a suspect of a drive by shooting to the media so that the offender is in danger from rival gang members. In my opinion-illegal and unethical. Releasing a description of a suspect is one thing-but to release a name of a suspect so that rival gang members can get at them is wrong. Find another way to bring...

...Test The Yoruba kingdoms of Ifẹ and Oyo in southwestern Nigeria became prominent in the 12th[15][16] and 14th[17] century respectively. However, Yoruba mythology states that Ile-Ife is the source of the human race and that it pre-dates any other civilization, although the oldest signs of human settlement dates back to the ninth century.[15] Ifẹ produced terracotta and bronze figures, and Ọyọ once extended from western Nigeria to Togo. The Kingdom of Benin is located in southwestern Nigeria. Benin's power lasted between the 15th and 19th century. Their dominance reached as far as the city of Eko (an Edo name later changed to Lagos by the Portuguese) and further.[18] The Kingdom of Nri of the Igbo people started in the 10th century until it lost its sovereignty to the British in 1911. It is the oldest kingdom in Nigeria.[19][20] Nri was ruled by the Eze Nri, and the city of Nri is considered to be the foundation of Igbo culture. Nri and Aguleri, where the Igbo creation myth originates, are in the territory of the Umeuri clan who trace their lineages back to the patriarchal king-figure Eri.[21] The oldest pieces of bronzes made out of the lost-wax process in West Africa were from Igbo Ukwu, a city under Nri influence.[19] Colonial era Main article: Colonial Nigeria Benin city in the 17th century with the Oba of Benin in procession.

...I. Background Information / Additional Perspectives Sagip Pasig Movement (SPM) envisions a society that works as one for a balanced ecosystem towards the improvement of life for the succeeding generations. Its mission is to mobilize community participation through the establishment of a movement of strong and capable community – based organizations working towards the rehabilitation of the Pasig and other river system. Sagip Pasig Movement conducted its first mock awarding in April 22, 1995 known as “Lason Awards”. SPM ranked the polluters according to its biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), the primary parameter used by the Laguna Lake Development Authority (LLDA) and the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) to determine waste water effluent quality. Other parameters used are suspended solids, acidity or alkalinity and the apparent presence of oil and grease. Lason Award recipients exceeded the legal and tolerable limits set by LLDA and DENR. The objective is to initiate change through public disclosure. The award gives recognition to the companies or organizations and establishments that contribute to pollution or destruction of the Pasig River. The Lason Award is a mock award given every April 22 (International Earth Day) to the top ten industries found to be polluting the river. Since 1995, majority of Lason Awardees have installed wastewater treatment facilities because of the pressure created by the exposé. Some of these industries...

...And Then There Were None by AGATHA CHRISTIE CHAPTER 1 IN THE CORNER of a first-class smoking carriage, Mr. Justice Wargrave, lately retired from the bench, puffed at a cigar and ran an interested eye through the political news in the Times. He laid the paper down and glanced out of the window. They were running now through Somerset. He glanced at his watch-another two hours to go. He went over in his mind all that had appeared in the papers about Indian Island. There had been its original purchase by an American millionaire who was crazy about yachting-and an account of the luxurious modern house he had built on this little island off the Devon coast. The unfortunate fact that the new third wife of the American millionaire was a bad sailor had led to the subsequent putting up of the house and island for sale. Various glowing advertisements of it had appeared in the papers. Then came the first bald statement that it had been bought-by a Mr. Owen. After that the rurnours of the gossip writers had started. Indian Island had really been bought by Miss Gabrielle Turl, the Hollywood film star! She wanted to spend some months there free from all publicity! Busy Bee had hinted delicately that it was to be an abode for Royalty??! Mr. Merryweather had had it whispered to him that it had been bought for a honeymoon-Young Lord L-- had surrendered to Cupid at last! Jonas knew for a fact that it had been purchased by the Admiralty with a view to carrying out some very hush hush experiments...

...And Then There Were None Agatha Christie ← Plot Overview → Eight people, all strangers to each other, are invited to Indian Island, off the English coast. Vera Claythorne, a former governess, thinks she has been hired as a secretary; Philip Lombard, an adventurer, and William Blore, an ex-detective, think they have been hired to look out for trouble over the weekend; Dr. Armstrong thinks he has been hired to look after the wife of the island’s owner. Emily Brent, General Macarthur, Tony Marston, and Judge Wargrave think they are going to visit old friends. When they arrive on the island, the guests are greeted by Mr. and Mrs. Rogers, the butler and housekeeper, who report that the host, someone they call Mr. Owen, will not arrive until the next day. That evening, as all the guests gather in the drawing room after an excellent dinner, they hear a recorded voice accusing each of them of a specific murder committed in the past and never uncovered. They compare notes and realize that none of them, including the servants, knows “Mr. Owen,” which suggests that they were brought here according to someone’s strange plan. As they discuss what to do, Tony Marston chokes on poisoned whiskey and dies. Frightened, the party retreats to bed, where almost everyone is plagued by guilt and memories of their crimes. Vera Claythorne notices the similarity between the death of Marston and the first verse of a nursery rhyme, “Ten Little Indians,” that hangs in each bedroom. The next morning...

..."It is perfectly clear. Mr. Owen is one of us….” (Christie 150). These famous words from Agatha Christie’s novel, And Then There Were None, would define the murder mystery genre for generations to come. Her use of many literary devices, such as foreshadowing, symbolism, and similes, allowed her to truly express herself. Agatha Christie utilized the gramophone as foreshadowing for the identity of the killer, the 10 solider boys as a motif for the characters’ deaths, and the seaweed as a symbol of guilt and regret all to add suspense to her novel, And Then There Were None. The gramophone in Agatha Christie’s novel, And Then There Were None, foreshadowed who among them was Mr. Owen, thus adding suspense to the story. Near the beginning of the book, all of the characters gather to eat dinner, when suddenly a...

...would be a self-contradiction if a being that none greater can be conceived did not exist. Through relations of premises, which pertain to ideas in our minds and actuality, Anselm draws the conclusion that an all-powerful being must exist. Many philosophers realize, however, that the ontological argument is problematic in that the relationship drawn between mental and actual reality is not clearly stated. In this paper I will argue that the lack of distinction between reality and beings that exist in the mind proves to be a weakness in the ontological argument. I will do this first by presenting an important philosopher who directly responds to the ontological argument, then I will further develop my argument with the notion that Anselm’s argument is too ambiguous considering we can only comprehend finite beings, and finally, I will address a response to Aquinas’s objection and why this proves to have weaknesses of its own. The ontological argument is stated as such: by definition, God is a being that none greater can be imagined. This being exists as an idea in the mind. Other things equal, a being that exists as an idea in the mind and in reality is greater than a being that exists only in the...

There is no emphasis on a gospel of tongues, an easy example although probably the weakest is directly in Acts 2:41 “Then they that gladly received his word were baptized: and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls (KJV).” None of these three-thousand were baptized in the Holy Spirit that day; they were only saved, but not Spirit-Baptized, and there's no need to mention further....
