Research Hypothesis Analysis of historic activities in a case produces substantial evidence for persecution. Courts have depended on the evidence presented to indict based on material from crime scenes and pass sentences on cases. This has however been outwitted by the lawbreakers or destruction and loss of evidence which has led to improper persecution of trials. Introduction In the investigation of a criminal case, the crime reports can be taken on for scrutiny. These statements are derived from the scene or the area of alleged illegal activity. The perpetrator who is alleged to have committed the act is entitled to a fair trial. To grant this right, a comprehensive probe has to be carried out to determine the accusation based on evidence. The summary of the analyzed data from the investigation is presented in a court of law for legal action. The court operates solely on evidence and the examiner has to prove the case beyond the reason of doubt. To scrutinize an illegal case, aspects of behavior structure are resolved before, at the period of, and beyond the unlawful act. These findings are merged with additional related facts and objective proof. This combination is used to contrast with the traits of familiar behavior styles and psychological defects to build up a sensible effective illustration of the wrongdoer. (Winerman, 2004) The work of a prosecutor depends on the work done by the investigator. The nature of crime is that it is done in an undercover technique. This makes the unfolding of the illegal act with the offender challenging to the inspector. Investigators have adopted modern methods of unearthing evidence such as forensic and closed-circuit television recordings. (Meyer, 2000) Research Objectives The research seeks to find out which is the most appropriate method of exploring crime and the architects behind it. Investigators have used eye witness and their accounts in preparing cases for persecution. The lawbreakers have got smarter and developed ways of eluding the eye of the public by the use of stands such as disguises or masks. (Winerman, 2004) The study will determine why cases of crime have had difficulties in the preparations. The wrongdoers have mastered their art of crime and they leave scenes with little evidence. This has resulted in crippling of law enforcement as justice is not normally served. Crime scenes have been destroyed or altered giving the investigators a difficult time. Some destructions could be intentional and some accidental. (Meyer, 2000) The research paper scrutinizes if there are any advancements in crime probing technology. In order to prove cases as proposed, the prosecutor is required by law to convince the court using appropriate evidence. Law enforcers need to develop technologies that will aid them in getting these proofs. The equipment should be updated frequently as the criminals continue to improve on their act
Never in the history of the American Presidency has the inauguration of a new President evoked such a level of expectation since the days of Abraham Lincoln or John F Kennedy. The anointment of Barack Obama as the first African American President of the United States has signaled to the world that American democracy has finally matured and that it is truly the land of opportunity where dreams can come true. However, no President since Roosevelt has had to face problems of such gigantic proportions as Barack Obama now faces. Amidst a global meltdown triggered by the near-collapse of the American economy, a war machine overstretched across the world bled by two vexing theatres in Iraq and Afghanistan and an unflattering global image, Obama has very little time to put into place corrective measures. People usually give the new President the first 100 days in office to get to the grips of the job that he has inherited. In Obama’s case, he had to hit the ground running. This essay focuses on how Obama has fared till now. Despite the stupendous challenges, Obama has performed remarkably well in such a short time. This has been made possible because of adequate homework and analysis having been carried out during the campaign trail and crystallizing a certain ‘way ahead’ during that period. Obama had promised that he would focus on Afghanistan and reduce troops in Iraq, which he considers to be an American folly inherited from George W Bush. He has made good these promises by ordering an additional 30,000 troops into Afghanistan and agreeing to a drawdown in Iraq. Some critics say that this measure is very similar to the Bush policies. The fact is that corrective measures on the war front would have to be put into place gradually. After all, no leader can precipitously pull out of a quagmire which would only lead to more disaster. In that Obama has displayed admirable sagacity. On the direction of foreign policy, the Obama administration has restored the system to its rightful owners – the State department that had been hijacked by the Defense Department under Rumsfeld and Cheney who de facto ran the American Foreign policy under Bush with disastrous results. It is on the economy that Obama has faced numerous criticisms both from the left and right sides of the political spectrum. The $ 787 billion stimulus plan is seen by many as too much ‘bail out’ and very little ‘start up’. The criticism is unwarranted. After all, permitting the demise of General Motors, Citibank, and other American institutions on whom thousands of American jobs depend would be foolhardy and poor economics. Obama has ensured that institutions handed the bailouts tighten their belts and cut down on extravagant salaries, a measure that is being applauded by everyone. To his credit, he has endeavored to inculcate a politics of consensus to change the rules on the ‘Beltway’. He has also been unusually honest in admitting to his mistakes in choosing high officials, a quality unseen on Capitol Hill for many a decade. Most importantly, Obama inspires hope and is seen as complying with the promises that he made while on the campaign trail. By all yardsticks, g
Three films that have been chosen for this analysis are: a) The Good The Bad and The Ugly, b) For a Few Dollars More and c) Fist Full of Dollars. They all are directed by Sergio Leone and belong to the Western genre. Clint Eastwood is the protagonist of all the three movies. They are all blockbuster movies with a huge popularity and business all over the world during sixties and seventies. Originally, these movies were made in Italy, Germany, and Spain, as the terrain was similar to northwest American terrain. The movies present the nineteenth century American culture, the time spam of around late 1800. It was the time of exploration, development and American Civil War. They all are unique because represent the typical countryside gang wars and rivalry of bandits and the quest of the bounty hunters. In that age, Americans were influenced by other cultures of that period like the Mexicans, Hispanics, and Indians cultures. The heroic moment of all the films is the popular ‘Mexican standoff’ of the hero. ‘Mexican standoff’ is a condition in which two or more opponents use revolver to aim each other. A person wins if he kills and shots the opponent first. The main theme of all the three movies is the same that, everyone including the hero is after the gold and money. The bandits are looting people, robbing banks, there is rootless killing, everyone is running after the money by whatever means possible. These movies entertain us by countryside epic, the deserted terrains, horses and the hard lifestyle of the cowboys. The three movies have created many famous character, Tuco, Angel Eyes, Ramón, Indio and Client Eastwood’s character, ‘the man with no name’. Sound Analysis Scene selected: The prison camp in the movie: The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly: (from 90 min to 105 min) The prison camp scene of the movie is selected for this analysis. The scene is roughly around 10 to 15 minutes. The sound affect is very prominent in also most every clip, and the music plays important part to in the movie. The latest DVD version of this movie was released in 2003. However, the original movie’s music was complete in itself. It demonstrated wonderful effort of designing, recording, mixing and editing of the sound. The sound crew has demonstrated professionalism and mastery of their art. These movies are considered as masterpieces. They got famous because of the lyrics and sound affect. As the other sequels of the films, the selected scene is composed using the postproduction sound. The ‘sound design’ exhibits the skillfulness of the composing crew. The director has taken especial care that the sound runs side by side with the action. An Academic Award winner Mnnio Morricone, has composed the lyrics of all the three films including the sound of the selected scene. He is known as influential sound composer in film industry. Sergio Leone hired him for his films, to work on the ‘gunshots, whistles, jaw harps, trumpets, voices, guitars, and other orchestra arrangement’. His early budget was not enough for a full orchestra. With the major success in Sergio Leone’s two films ‘Fist Full of Dollars’, ‘For a
The spreadsheet template offered is a combination of the ideas and characteristics of the possible risks in a resurfacing an old driveway with new asphalt project. The project developer should be able to touch upon all aspects of the work, predict the possible risks, and choose the most appropriate assumptions to achieve as many benefits of a new driveway as possible. The spreadsheet is a properly organized list of facts about the risks and the ways of how to overcome them or, at least, get ready for them. There are several sections of the spreadsheet to pay attention to. These are risk description, likelihood, impact, detectability, category of the risk, indicators of the risk, possible responses and assumptions, and, finally, the status of the risk and the identification of who is responsible for a particular risk management (Kerzner, 2009). In the project under consideration, six main risk areas should be identified and analyzed. Though, the likelihood of the weather conditions threats is about 50%, its impact is severe because it may result in a project deadline delay, worsened quality of new asphalt, and other adjustments that may be required. The problems with equipment delivery are about 26%; and though the impact of this technical threat is moderate, the project manager has to think about the alternatives available and include the services of a new company to rely on in a case of emergency. The risk of poor new asphalt quality is also moderate; still, its percentage is about 76% because its detectability is possible only after some a trigger event can happen. As soon as some problems with new asphalt take place, the workers in cooperation with a manager have to start doing something to change the situation and avoid the failure of the whole project (Mouratidis & Papageorgiou, 2010). Old driveway removal can also be a risky business; in this case, it is a 23% moderate type of risk controlled by the workers. They have to use the best equipment and ask to set appropriate deadlines to make sure all work is properly done. The workers should also take the precautionary methods to avoid the threat of worsening their health conditions because of inappropriate working conditions or other reasons. Finally, the necessity to spend money on the accomplishment of the work is usually evident. Therefore, the project manager has to pay a certain attention to the risk of additional financial costs, because, as the spreadsheet shows, this risk is critical and usually hard to detect. The manager admits that more than 90% of likelihood is inherent to the project because of the presence of all the risks mentioned (Wan & Liang, 2012). The spreadsheet offered to this project underlines the fact that all risks have an open status because the project has not been started yet. As soon as the managers define the periods for the work to be done, and the workers start taking some actions, the statuses of the risks may be changed accordingly. The status of the financial cost risks will be changed the last because it can be closed only after some time af
Introduction Human beings were born with billions and billions if inherent ideas. The uniqueness that we all posses are one shining example that we are all different and we all serve different roles. The word stereotype simply means to label a person. This is occasioned at times by real traits, and behaviours (Craig et al 110). This comes about when an individual, a group or a tribe continuously and repeatedly exhibits a trait to which others think or label as queer. The other side of the divide will naturally come from a different ethnic, cultural, social or economic back ground. The deepest rooted and the oldest form of stereotype is gender. This form is deeply rooted and entrenched in human behaviour since time immemorial. Men and women tend to look down upon other on many issues. This stereotype comes in two major divisions. According to Craig et al (112), there is the personality and the roles stereotype with the former being a psychological part while the latter taking the roles and activities. It is a common stereotype to hear men label women as poor drivers, while women will say that men are terrible in household chores. Such utterances are in no way meant to demean the other divide but it largely tends to portray the macho side of the one stereotyping. The aftermath of stereotyping; there emerged a division of labour, men assigned themselves duties and roles that they felt could perform better while assigning those they felt that were of lower status to women. One thing that must be noted is that those duties that they considered of lower cadre were not, men were only boosting their egos. In a family setup if a woman’s role is to clean, cook, bake and feed the children she should be said to be playing a lesser role than the man just because he pays house rent and other bills (Craig et al 112). Forms of Stereotypes World wide, Stereotypes comes on two forms the positive and negative. In many stereotypes, the subject is always viewed negatively, whi
Introduction In the collection of stories, Junot Diaz portrays African-American experience, focusing on how characters struggle to find their unique self and their cultural identity living in an unjust society, Díaz portrays the great human loss of identity and self. In this collection, masculinities help the author to create an atmosphere of struggle and fight, poverty and hardship faced by men in the Dominican Republic. Diaz does not use such popular devices as fantasy and poetic style but concentrates on with depicting the humiliation and everyday problems of inner-city life. The theme of masculinities involves description of poverty and hardship, youth struggling against the conditions of life for urban Africa-American youth. Main body In the collection, Diaz omits political intentions and struggle but concentrates on exploitation of immigrants and racism as themes of masculinity. His descriptions are passionate and impassive. The book depicts accusation against those forces in American society that condemned some ethnic minorities to alienation, discrimination, and disillusionment, it was also a book that assumed that these conditions could be altered through political action. In this book, there is little semblance of a community–in the sense of groups living lives of multileveled communication with each other. There are friends and neighbors who come across each other from time to time in these tales, but they merge and separate, like the proverbial ships that pass in the night, leaving little in their wake. Five of the stories in Drown share the same narrator, Ramón de las Casas, known as Yunior, a young boy whose narratives of a somewhat blighted Dominican childhood become the tales of a rather traumatized inner-city New Jersey adolescent. In the New Jersey-based stories, the narrators, all of whom may or may not be Yunior, share Yunior’s sensibility: the suspicious watchfulness and defensive stance, the blighted relationship with the father figure, and the uneasiness in relationships with women, which move from tenderness to violence. In this black comedy, Díaz depicts the life of a Dominican boy who never quite becomes the traditional macho male. In addition, instead of the tale of an immigrant family moving north, from the island to the mainland, it portrays an established Dominican family in the 1970s. “Fiesta, 1980” takes place in New Jersey. The family has been in the United States for three years. The story describes Yunior and his family visiting their tía and tío, the newly arrived members of the family, for a big party. Spanish is spoken by Yunior’s family, except when Rafa wants to tell Yunior something in secret. The story, although about a family party, is actually about the father, Ramón de las Casas, who is not only abusive toward his children, especially Yunior, but who also has a mistress and is in the process of leaving the family. Yunior tells about how he met his father’s mistress, “the Puerto Rican woman.” While his father is upstairs with the mistress,
The article is written by Joraslav Peprnik. The article is an overview of the Czech themes and figures, and other English literature topics (Peprnik 34). The survey of these factors is based on fiction, meaning there is no tangible evidence on these issues. The Czechs were not mentioned by many writers in the past apart from Burton and Walton; but in the later centuries, starting from the 18 th century, there emerged a lot of information about the Czechs. The text gives a historical background of the Bohemia, its geographical position and related legendary history (Peprnik 34). The appropriate audience for this work should be scholars, who should be given a hint of the historical aspects related to Bohemia. The article has a systemic representation of the events that occurred in the field of literature. It gives most of the events that have occurred in early times of Bohemia. In between 1558 and 1609 years, Bohemia was made famous by William Shakespeare in his “Winter’s Tale” (Peprnik 34). The article looks critically into the life of the Bohemians, their life style and the criticism on the way they led their lives (Peprnik 36). This information was made available by the characters used in a number of plays that depicted Bohemia in the 14 th Century (Peprnik 36). The author does another comparison of Bohemia in the 17 th Century using literature. In this century, the author touches on issues such wolf madness, which is shown in the artwork “The Anatomy of Melancholy” done by Robert Burton. The madness had forced people to run to the graves but the act was not taken with the serious it deserved (Burton 13). Another work of the same year in Bohemia describes the Bishop as an expert in choosing a place for ponds and it depicts him as the authority in the fish age (Peprnik 36). The artwork Daniel Defoes “Memoirs of a Cavalier” also gives reference to Bohemia. It describes the causes behind the birth of Protestants in Bohemia (Peprnik 36). The 19 th century literature also describes Bohemia using work by Thomas Carlyle; the literature basically describes the legendary history of Bohemia. The author also looks into the historical figures in the 18 th to 20 th century. The texts have looked at all the kings that were in Bohemia at that time. Some of the literature that describes the historic rulers of Bohemia is “William the Conqueror” that was done by Rudyard Kipling plus other literatures (Burton 13). The author points out that location of Bohemia in Czech was described in literature. Some of the work that had description of Bohemia was “Tristram Shandy” that was done by Laurence Sterne. Other than the work, there were other books that had given a rational description of Bohemia’s physical location. Another feature that is mentioned in the duration of 18 th -20 th century was Prague. The city is mentioned and described by the work of Daniel Defoe and George Eliot (Burton 13). By 20 th centu
Introduction Political cartoons are generally regarded as a hypertrophied imagination of the political or social reality of the particular time epoch. The image that is selected for the analysis is from the pre-1856 epoch of US history, and it represents the imagination of the political and social life as it was imagined by artists. The cartoon that was selected for the analysis is Yankee volunteers marching into Dixie. This is regarded as a music cover 1862 year dated. This is a patriotic, and a bit sarcastic depiction of the Union forces. Washington City: Published by C.F. Morse; Boston G.A. Morse c 1862. Creator(s): J.H. Bufford’s Lithographic Establishment, lithographer. Related Names: Bufford, John Henry, 1810-1870. Morse, C. F. Analysis The general description of the picture presupposes that the Union forces are marching for opening the Civil War. The troop marches forward, and their dressings are characterized as the Yankee character Brother Jonathan (Brody, 106). The background of the poster depicts the skyline with capitol building. The interpretation of this painting is associated with the events before the civil war and is based on the fact that the Union forces were regarded as the only hope of the democratic development of the further American society. Because political cartoons were based on the subjective perception of reality, it should be emphasized that the actual importance of the interpretation is associated with the necessity to explain the origins of the artist’s wish to attract attention to the fact of the civil war beginning. By the research by Lent (156), the following statement should be emphasized: Political prints and satires have, quite appropriately, long been collecting interest for the congressional library. A particularly large group of such works from the late eighteenth century relates to the Revolutionary War period, including historical prints, satires, and allegories by American artists such as Paul Revere and Amos Doolittle, as well as British publishers from across the political spectrum. In the light of this statement, the historical context of the analyzed poster is mainly associated with the necessity to analyze the sequence of the historic events, as well as the social background and moods of the people and soldiers. Because the poster depicts the very beginning of the Civil War, both sides of the conflict are highly inspired. The interpretation accuracy may be doubted because the actual importance of the picture was to inspire the audience, and soldiers marching in white top hats look a bit strange. On the other h
