...The renovation of o Our beautiful school campus has been defaced by many disrespectful students who continue to litter on our campus. The principal’s way of dealing with this problem is to take away our after school activity. I do agree that there is a big littering issue because littering, affects this world in so many different ways, it is just flat out wrong; I also agree that something needs to be done and a punishment given that is current with littering issue on campus and imposed on those students where the punishment is needed , just not with this new decision. This punishment is misguided; it doesn't deal with everyone in the student body. Yes, I do think littering is wrong there is no way that it wouldn't be. Littering is wrong...

...Assignment 2: What Went Wrong? Was the bank justified in terminating Darrell on the grounds of his prior embezzlement conviction? Explain. Even though Darrell was convicted of embezzlement as a bank teller previously and spent time in jail, I believe in this instance the bank was not justified in terminating Darrell on the grounds of his prior embezzlement conviction. The two hiring persons from the bank did not communicate with each other about Darrell’s prior conviction on embezzlement so therefore he was hired by the bank with that conviction on his record giving him a second chance at doing the right thing. Most employees in the United States work "at will." That means an employer may choose to fire an employee at any time, for any reason, unless that reason is illegal. State and federal laws prohibit employers from relying on certain justifications for firing employees, such as discrimination or retaliation. If an employee has an employment contract -- whether written or oral, express or implied -- that contract may limit an employer’s ability to terminate the employee. If an employment contract exists, you must treat the employee fairly and fire the employee only for "good cause." The Implied Covenant of Good Faith and Fair Dealing - A wrongful discharge suit based on the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing usually is a contract claim (Mallard 2013). Employment discrimination is protected under the 4th & 5th Amendment as well as Title VII of the Civil...

...Once touted as the IT bellwether, Infosys today, finds itself in a very precarious situation. Its revenue guidance for FY 12-13 is lower than the industry average. Peers like TCS and Cognizant on the other hand are growing strong. For more than eight quarters Infosys has been underperforming. Anyone and everyone related to the IT industry has tried to analyse its problems and all have come up with different reasons. Even the Infosys management is finding it hard to pin down its poor performance to a particular problem. Will Infosys be able to correct its course in time? Or will it be overtaken by the likes of Wipro and Cognizant. In the group of TCS, Wipro, Cognizant, HCL Tech and Infosys, Infosys has seen its share of revenue addition growth slip from 22% to 14.5%. Other than Wipro, all other have seen a modest to robust growth in their revenue addition. In the last five quarters the company has missed the midpoint of its guidance twice and in the last quarter it even missed out on the lower end of its guidance. This resulted in the stock prices tanking by almost 13%! Ask any critique and the first reason they will point out is the management problem at Infosys. The founders who are still at the helm of the company are being perceived as a major hurdle in the company’s growth. Post the 2008 recession there have been significant changes in the IT outsourcing industry. Critiques say that Infosys management has been slow to adapt to these changes. Infosys still is a very centrally...

...It is important for all adults to understand that bullying does not have to be a normal part of childhood. All forms of bullying are harmful to the bully, the victim, and to the witnesses. The effects can last well into adulthood. Bullying and not-confronting bullies are morally wrong (Education.com, 2009). 1. The bully learns the behavior is acceptable and continues to be a bully as an adult. This behavior is passed to the bully's children; learned by observation and modeling, the bully becomes a regenerator of spousal abuse, children abuser and perhaps a criminal who delights in killing homeless people. It is up parents, leaders, educator, and community to teach that bullying is wrong and it should be done to anyone (Yahoo, 2012). 2. Other...

...Polygamy: What is right and what is wrong? Polygamy is when a man is married to more than one woman at a time. This term is not to be confused with bigamy, where the man is married to separate women, and have separate lives, whereas polygamy the multiple families live under one roof. With shows on TV about polygamy, such as Big Love and Sister Wives, polygamy has been under the radar. There are also cases such as the YFZ Ranch that was owned by the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (FLDS), a Mormon “ranch” that practices polygamy, where over 400 women and children were taken from the ranch. One of the major comparisons to making polygamy legal is the legalization of gay marriage. The first article against polygamy I read was by a Canadian blogger, called clearcut blogging. I know a blog isn’t as resourceful as an actual article but I found it very interesting. This blog gave reasons for why polygamy is wrong. The blogger talked about how polygamy is not about rights: it's about the power over and control of one group by another. One of the points that the blogger made that I think is a good one is that most North American "families" in polygamous situations are on welfare or food stamps. The men in polygamous relationships cannot financially support all the women and children, and the women are generally not permitted the freedom to choose a career and work. This shows that in a modern society, polygamous marriages are not healthy or stable institutions...

...The internet is one of the most successful inventions in out lives. It gives a variety of benefits such as vast amounts of information or contacting with people around the world. However, even though it produces several crucial benefits, there are some major issues hidden behind which shadows people’s perspective of viewing the world. Even though there are a large amount of great information on the internet, it does contain wrong information which can confuse the internet users. For example, this year, NBC News has reported various of false information about the disappearance of Malaysia Airway in March on the internet, while the flight landed safely without having any issues. Just like the example of the wrong information about the Malaysia Airway, news organizations these days tend to falsify the news to ㅇ deceive the reader’s eye so that more people could be attracted in their news articles rather than to produce truthful information. These false information quickly spread out to innocent readers who mainly just both obtain and trust the news from the internet....

...Monday morning, 29 August 2005, this is a day most New Orleans residents will never forget. This was the day a category 5 hurricane named Katrina made its catastrophic debut to the Gulf Coast region and killed over 1,300 people. (The White House, 2006, p. 1) After it was all said and done, the nation was shocked at the events that unfolded in Alabama, Louisiana and Mississippi and people were left wondering, “What went wrong?” National Geographic reported that the storm originated about a week earlier, 23 August, in the Caribbean and worked its up from the Bahamas making landfall Thursday, 25 August, in Miami. Winds at this time were 75-80 mph making it a category 1 hurricane causing some tree damage and killing two people. (Drye, 2005) The storm lost strength for a little while but once it hit the warm waters of the Gulf of Mexico, it rapidly gained momentum and before long reached wind speeds up to 175 mph making it a category 5 hurricane. On Sunday, 28 August, New Orleans mayor, Ray Nagin, issued a mandatory evacuation order. Roughly 24 hrs later, the full strength of Katrina slammed into New Orleans and Biloxi. (Drye, 2005) Local and state emergency managers are responsible for coming up with a plan of action for different hazardous situations. Once a situation gets overwhelming for those levels of management, federal assistance is then requested. Prior to Hurricane Katrina’s arrival, various local emergency management agencies (LEMAs), such as local fire, police, and...

...For many centuries now, the idea of humans consuming meat has long been debated. Because it is so engraved in our culture and society, many people do not find it morally wrong to eat meat, while others are quick to point out that there is no reason to justify the robbery of life. Killing animals for the satisfaction of human pleasure is an extremely unethical and inhumane act, therefore humankind should resort to vegetarianism. Extensive research has shown repeatedly that humans do not need to eat animal flesh to survive or even stay healthy, it is merely just a choice of humans to eat a particular type of food (Henning, 82). While it is true that meat contains vital proteins necessary for life, there is a plant equivalent of any meat product....

...University of Phoenix Material What’s Wrong with This Document? The document below is the first page in the body of an assignment that must be consistent with APA guidelines. Identify and correct deviations from APA guidelines in the document. Returning to School Page 1 Learning new skills and knowledge is something that is required every day in my job. Currently, I am not eligible for promotions because I don’t have the necessary college degree. When I try to compete with others for jobs that don’t require a college degree, other applicants have some type of formal education on their résumés that outweighs my background. I want this college degree so I can compete with others for the jobs for which I am qualified. According to idealist.org “The new skills and knowledge you gain from your graduate education can improve your ability to do your best work and better position you for more opportunities for advancement in your career. While a graduate degree does not automatically lead to a promotion in title, salary, or responsibility, it can be very personally, if not also professionally, rewarding. Hopefully your investment in yourself and in your graduate education will eventually pay off in both intangible and tangible ways. Your graduate degree may just be a clincher in a negotiated pay raise!” that proves that even with...

...basically the same, targeting trendy, sophisticated women between the ages of 16-54. First off Michael Kors had so much floor space demanding and attracting attention. A major reason why MK is even able to do this is because they offer to primary collections, the Michael Kors luxury collection and the MICHAEL Michael Kors accessible luxury collection. Well actually I guess the first thing I would recommend to my supervisor would be to upgrade on collections, to be precise create a top notch collection with a similar price range, and with this they can now demand the floor space. A benefit segmentation that Mk has is that both the primary collections although one is more prestige than the other are in very similar price ranges, don’t get me wrong some of the...

...Kyla Patillo Toyota in a Crisis Crisis Management Toyota is a well-known brand throughout the auto industry. The innovative Japanese company is famous for its car models such as the Camry, Corolla, and even the Lexus. Toyota U.S.A. first got their start in October 1937 in a once was Rambler dealership in Hollywood, California. In 1958 they began selling a few different models and in 1989 began their own brand of luxury cars where the Lexus was first introduced. Unique models and satisfactory customer service put Toyota in the top three bestselling automobile companies in America. Things were looking great for Toyota with wide economic growth they had little complaints, and even in a recession sales were still booming. With things going so well for Toyota why invest in crisis prevention? Toyota was soon going to find its answer to that very question. On August 8th, 2009, Mark Saylor-an off duty patrol man and three members of his family were driving close to Santee, California in his Lexus. All of a sudden the Lexus began to accelerate exceeding 100mph, one of the occupants called 911 reporting frantically that the Lexus “had no brakes,” seconds later the car crashed and caught fire claiming the lives of everyone inside. The birth of the Toyota crisis concerning the sticky gas pedals had begun. Toyota did not have much to say on the incident, instead of immediately creating an investigation to find out exactly why this happened and addressing the issue Toyota summed it up...

...At Meijer, on a sun shining day, there were two children, Stacey and John, removing clothings from its hangers and throwing the clothes onto the floor. The children did not understand what they were doing was wrong. They seemed to view it as a game between the two of them on who can get the most clothes off the hangers. The instant the mother saw Stacey and John pulling the clothes off of their hangers, she snatched the arm of one of Stacey and began to her. After a few firm smacks to her buttock, she looked at her mother in fear. John was next in line to receive the same spankings and looked as if he does not trust his mother because of the physical punishment applied to Stacey. John resisted their mother as she attempted to pull him closer. After a couple minutes passed of their mother struggling to give John his spankings, she eventually gave him his spankings. After the spankings were over, tears slowly went down both Stacey and John’s face....

...For example, to an average person, manipulating and socially brigading someone is seen as really wrong and hurtful. Probably because most of us can feel something called empathy. But, to say, a psychopath, manipulating someone to acquire personal gain would not be morally wrong because psychopaths can’t feel empathy. How then, can we expect society to come to a synonymous decision on what is morally right and what is morally wrong? The line between moral and immoral is as blurred as there are people on the earth. I mean even looking at history; the ethics of society have changed so greatly. Just a few years ago, it was considered wrong for a woman to work a man’s job because she was quote on quote, ‘stealing his opportunities’. Do you realize how senseless that sounds nowadays? As our beliefs change so drastically over such a short time, why is it that we don’t consider change in our law and order? That’s why I think civil disobedience is a necessity, as it allows us to decide in union what is wrong and what is right. Being able to peacefully protest should be a human right and it shouldn’t be considered wrong or illegal. Another point to support this is past defiance’s of the public. One prime example is the salt march led by Gandhi in...
