...Devin Smith LEG 500 Law, Ethics, Corp Goverance Dr. Terry Phillips 7/18/11 Explain where an employee can reasonably expect to have privacy in the workplace. If there is a policy in place of the employer related to workplace including privacy issues that policy is legally binding. For example the employer may communicate that employees may enjoy privacy in certain demarcated areas of the office. The employee can enjoy privacy in those areas. According to Ethics in the workplace from a legal perspective employees can reasonably expect privacy in the bathroom and locker room. In such places video monitoring will not be accepted in a court of law. For instance, employers that wish to have an unquestionable right to look at or search for particular items and information kept on their premises should take every reasonable step to dispel any notion that their employers can expect privacy.(p.99-106) Employment manuals should make clear that the employer reserves the right to inspect and examine all areas of the workplace. There is no federal statute that provides general privacy protection in the private employment sector arena. However, in the federal case of Roe v. Wade, the United States Supreme Court held that there is implicit in the U.S. Constitution a right to privacy. A federal statute, 42 U.S.C. Sec. 1983, provides that anyone who, acting under color of law, deprives an individual of rights conveyed by the Constitution or laws of the United States shall be liable...

...The factors which makes Iddan, an engineer with no medical background, to pioneer the development of wireless endoscopy are he as an electo-optical engineer and was working on developing the “eye” of guided missile to its target. His friend at boston gave him information about technology used for viewing the interior lining of the digestive system which had lots of limitations, specially with viewing the small intestine. This small intestine causes serious disorders and only in United States approximately 19 million people suffer from disorders. Existing technology like X-ray and endo-scopes were unable to identify or investigate about small intestine. So the only option left was surgery and which was very crucial if the physician does not know which part of the small intestine is affected. So his friend encourages him to come up with better technology. Due to technology revolution after decade small video cameras which uses image sensors like CCDS (Charge coupled devices) has been developed. With his knowledge from developing the eye of guided missile he tried to make small missile like device which could travel through the intestine without a life line leading to the outside of the body and transmit images wirelessly to a receiver outside of the body. He has also done small experiment on chicken with his developed camera and as he succeeds he got more encouragement but he found battery of that camera get exhausted in few minutes.

...(bodybuilding, weight), etc. However, if a woman gets compliments like this, it could go either way taken as a positive or as a negative aspect. Some things women often here when they play professional sports are “look how much she weights” or “ she plays sports for a living when will she get married and have kids.” In addition to men which they do not receive these types of comments when they play professional sports. There is also a difference in their paychecks as well. For example, I’m an ex-hockey player and a fan of the NHL. NHL is a male-dominated sport, and we don’t see women play in the NHL. Women are often only seen playing hockey in the Olympics or the WNHL. For example, two siblings, Phill Kessel and his sister Amanda Kessel are both professional hockey players. But Phill gets paid 9 million dollars per NHL game, and his sister only receives $26,000 per her WNHL game. Therefore, I would like to point out that the is gender equality and a gender gap when it comes to professional sports especially when women are to take part in the professional sports. I would like to see more events and to promote Women’s sports just as Men’s sports are encouraged throughout the year. Have a smiler pay and to enjoy the game and not have politics involved. ...

...Whisky Rebellion Phill V Advanced Placement American History A.P. Test Review Activity: Putting the Workspace to the Test One of my consistent recommendations for review for objective tests has been to review as if you were preparing for an essay test. Pose a question dealing with a key theme – go back in to your outline and see if you could bullet out four or five key points that you would need to consider in order to answer the question. Write a statement considering what factors you would need to address in answering the question. If you feel comfortable that you could answer the essay question you could probably answer an objective question dealing with any of the key points. That will be the basis for this activity, how can we incorporate the workspace into our review? 1. Write a FRQ type question that addresses the topic. Discuss the consequences that followed the implementation of the Whisky Tax and the series of uprisings known as the Whisky rebellion and the results of it. 2. Identify the key theme this question addresses. Addresses the Whisky tax, the whisky rebellion, and what happened during the whisky rebellion 3.

...it really makes people happy. Even new studies of scientist’s show that touch therapy like HUGS can help overcome some medical conditions like Depression and Osteoarthritis. They believe that people need four hugs for survival, eight for maintenance and twelve for proper physical growth in a day. They have also said that it is the best way to support anyone and communicate when words are not enough. Actually it didn’t start as a psychological experiment but just as a random act of kindness to spread happiness among people and brighten up their lives. When Juan Mann’s world turned upside down he had no one to support him, to smile at him, to wait for him and to hug him. And that’s how free hugs campaign started on December 1, 2004 in the Phill Street Mall in central Sydney, where he held the cardboard with the words “Free Hugs” written on both sides. For fifteen minutes people were staring at him and passing looks. Then there came a lady who hugged him and said how her dog had died that morning and it was also the first death anniversary of her only daughter who died in a car accident and all she needed at that time, when she was feeling so lonely, was a HUG. And when they parted after a hug, she was smiling. Juan Mann said that he felt like the king of the world and those smiles he got were the best thing that ever happened to him. Through this we can see how one hug can help two people. The best thing about a hug is that you usually can’t give one without getting one yourself...
