A qualitative and quantitative research-based paper by Albert Kopak (2014) was written to explore the officer's views of being recorded in the line of duty and designed to understand the reasoning behind why civilians would want to record them. The first strength of the article was the sample size for the internet-based survey. This is an important aspect for the research, when considering how difficult it can be to find officers willing to include themselves for a research study. A total of 71 sworn law enforcement officers employed at a variety of agencies from police departments and sheriff's offices completed the survey. The next strength was the methodology used to conduct the survey, snowball sampling approach. This study is important because it allowed the officers to refer fellow officers who were eligible for the study to the researcher. This approach allowed the researcher access to respondents that the research would not normally have the opportunity to contact. Finally, the article's conclusion was incredibly strong and informative of the results. The…

These charges have to date overcompensated LECs for those costs and in that way forced IXCs to contribute to LEC Universal Service Fund. Access charges are per-minute fees paid by long-distance and cellular companies to local telephone companies for the right to originate and terminate phone calls on the local networks (Benjamin, Lichtman, Shelanski & Weiser, 2006). These charges are applicable to both incoming and outgoing calls. With this local telephone companies have argued that Internet Service Providers (ISPs) should also pay access charges because their customers utilize the local telephone lines. This utilization of the lines reduces the amount of time that the lines are available for telephone calls or use. These developments made the telephone companies to become threatened because they think that VoIP providers will begin to replace their service and that additional revenues will be lost. LECs companies still stood to their grounds of saying that VoIP is a telecommunications service, not an information service, and should be mandated to pay access…

I am reviewing Jonathan Kozol’s auto-biography, Death at an Early Age. This piece of literature provides the reader with an in-depth, personable account of schools of the 1960’s and the corruption that had flourished. Throughout this piece Kozol told of grim stories about public schools throughout Boston, Massachusetts; many of which would be incredibly disturbing. I believe Kozol’s thesis was the following: although legal segregation had been abolished in 1954, (Brown v Board) socio-economic segregation was still in full effect over ten years later. Or in other words, even though segregation had come to an end, African Americans were still denied fundamental rights, including an education.…

“No one should ever be locked away simply because they share the same race, ethnicity, religion, as a spy or terrorist. If that principle was not learned from the internment of Japanese Americans, then these are very dangerous times for our democracy” (Korematsu). Those were the words of Fred Korematsu, a Japanese civil rights hero who fought courageously in 1944 against the United States on the Internment of Japanese Americans. Korematsu’s actions sparked a movement in national history and at the time, no one could ever defy or rely on the government for help towards minorities. Japanese Americans committed no actoricies to be mass incarnated away from their homes, so why were they automatically outed for being a threat to mankind? Easily, social and racial attitudes in America had shifted after the Pearl Harbor attack executed by the Japanese on December 7th, 1941. Americans easily evolved into a whole chaotic cesspool of fear, violence, and outright racism was subjected to Japanese Americans. Anti-Japanese sentiment was rising on the edge such as signs marking “No Japs Allowed!” and soon Franklin Deleanor Roosevelt, 32th president of the United States was pressured into creating executive order 9066, which was effective in…

When I was a young child, my elementary school years were packed with fun times, learning, and promise. I was always discovering exciting new things, meeting interesting new friends, and enjoying being a generally happy child. My school, Beryl Heights Elementary, an accredited school, met or exceeded all of the standards set forth by those in power, and as an institute of learning, would teach me the skills needed to become a productive citizen. While the aforementioned sounds like a great deal, could there possibly be a sinister aspect to all of it? What about the school body? I was a happy, young Mexican boy amidst a snow White ocean of students, lightly peppered with “people of color”, as is the popular term. Jonathan Kozol believed this to be so, and although our method of observation of school systems was different, we both discovered a shockingly similar situation. As a member of an economic majority yet supposed racial minority, I feel Mr. Kozol was correct in his belief of an “educational apartheid.“.…

Before turning sixteen, I was permitted only to work on a local cattle ranch within a slightly risky and illegal drive through a back road shortcut. My twin sister and I would wake at three in the dawn to push heifers and their darlings into the mountains. Then, before it became too hot we would withdraw to the corrals and make ourselves useful cleaning tack, irrigating, and such. Haying season would come, and we were so weary and itchy from loading square bales, it was all we could do to hang on to the moving trailer. By the time I was old enough to fill out W4s, I was no stranger to hard work. Mother quoted the Good Book many a night, reminding us about 2 Thessalonians 3 (KJV).…

Opium Nation: Child Brides, Drug Lords, and One Woman’s Journey Through Afghanistan, is indeed a very long name for a book. However, Fariba Nawa does a fabulous job depicting the disturbing picture of present-day Afghanistan and taking the ( what are you trying to say? Reread the whole sentence)women’s role in it as the main role. Fariba(always use the whole name) Nawa is a journalist who was born in Herat, Afghanistan and by the age of nine she and her family escaped (Try: Migrated to the United States after the Soviet Invasion of 1979 where her family was forced to leave after an attack that hit too close for comfort) the Soviet war in their country after their lives were exposed to extreme danger. This was mainly when the mujahideen (a groups of loosely aligned Afghan positioners) attacked Nawa’s school, Lycee Mehri, (its seems irrelevant and out place) in July of 1982 killing dozens of students and almost killing her sister Faiza. Nawa recalls that day as one that she and her mother went to take their weekly bath at the public bathhouse, a few miles from their neighborhood, while Faiza went to school. That day, a woman told her mother that her husband had heard that the mujahideen planned to attack Lycee Mehri because girls were being taught communist propaganda there. (Make it more terrorizing, talk about the bombing and how she saw her friends decapitated) Nawa remembers that the scene that day in the streets made a little bit of sense. The streets were empty with few cars and horse wagons when they headed back home. Once home, they heard a big explosion and went out of the house and ran to the school looking for Faiza. At the school’s gate there was an ambulance overflowed with injured students but miraculously her sister was fine with no Injuries. In her book she mentions that the violence she witnessed at her school defined the path she had taken in her adult life. “War can become an addiction for its victims because it provides them meaning at the…

Wolfgang Kohler was born in Reval, Estonia in 1887. Both of Kohler’s parents were of German decent, and shortly after he was born, Kohler and his moved to Wolfenbuttell, Germany. The importance of education was introduced to Kohler earlier in life. His father was a schoolmaster, his sisters were nurses and educators, and Wilhelm, his older brother, was a scholar. As a child Kohler loved both the outdoors and classical music (Dahl, 2005). He even learned how to play the piano. As a collegiate he attended universities such as Tubingen from 1905 to 1906, Bonn from 1906 to 1907, and Berlin from 1907 to 1909. While earning his Ph.D in Berlin, Kohler studied physics under Max Planck and psychology under Karl Stumpf. His dissertation was written on psycho-acoustics and physics obviously played a large role in Kohlers life and work as he transferred many of its ideas to psychological aspects (Dahl, 2005).…
