In what ways is the first amendment right guaranteeing freedoms of expression in speech and press related to student non-instructional rights? Give an example and relate it to a specific part of the annotation. What are some considerations under which free speech cannot be considered a protection in a school or educational situation. Give examples and state why.

1. A nurse is reinforcing teaching about infection control with a parent of a school-age child who developed a measles rash 2 days ago. Which of the following actions by the parent indictes an understanding of the teaching?

1. Arranges of the child to video chat with friends.
2. Leaves the door to the child’s room open
3. Places used tissues on the bedcovers

In today's intensely competitive society, some school systems focus on preparing a child for competitive skills instead of trying to ensure a well-rounded development. Do you think schools in the U.S. help develop each child to her/his full potential, or do they have a bias in favor of developing the competitive spirit?

32. What is empirical research ? 37. Which research positions require a college degree and which ones only require high school diploma ? 41. What’s the difference between open-ended versus closed-ended questions. Which type is the most difficult to tabulate? 42. Which are double-barreled questions?

pretend you have been asked to give a talk on the topic of longevity to a group of high school students. What do you plan to say to this group regarding the state of research on the topic of longevity? Do you have any warnings to offer? Suggestions? Finally, be sure you also include a “call to action”.  

Kansas City-based Hallmark Cards, Inc., is the “personal expressions” industry leader, selling nearly half of all greeting cards purchased in America. Joyce C. Hall founded the company in 1910. Since that time, the company's creative staff has grown to more than 740 in-house artists, designers, stylists, photographers, writers and editors who design nearly 30,000 products each year. It also has a very large marketing department which relies heavily on in-house marketing research as well as independent marketing research companies to develop and evaluate, not only ideas for its cards, but various segmentation bases.

(A) Discuss two possible segmentation variables that Hallmark could use to segment the market. Describe the different segments resulted from the segmentation. One segmentation must be based on a behavioral variable.

(B) Identify one segment resulted from using one of the segmentation variables discussed in (A). Explain how you would evaluate this specific segment. Decide whether targeting this segment would be profitable.

Here is a data set on bird populations with color variation. The Y gene is autosomal with a Y allele (yellow plumage) and y allele (brown plumage), where Y is dominant to y (Y > y). The survey shows phenotypic frequencies for a large mainland population on the coast of Ecuador and a small island population. The island population was founded in 1960 by a small flock of birds. Thereafter, there has been some gene flow between the mainland and the island. Answer the following questions based on these data.

Census year                            Mainland                                            Island

                                    yellow             brown                          yellow             brown            

1960                            4,550               451                                4                  12

1970                            4,157               438                            58                  78

1980                            4,653               399                            203                  99

1990                            4,159               404                            367                  35

24. For 1970, estimate m, the rate of gene flow from the mainland to the island population. HINT: The simplest way to do this is to focus on the frequency of the recessive allele, f(y). Calculate f(y) on the mainland and island populations in 1960 (initial frequencies) and on the island population for 1970 (projected frequency). Then solve for m.

Students, please view the "Submit a Clickable Rubric Assignment" in the Student Center. Instructors, training on how to grade is within the Instructor Center. Assignment 1: Client Letter Due Week 2 and worth 150 points Imagine that you are a Certified Public Accountant (CPA) with a new client who needs an opinion on the most advantageous capital structure of a new corporation. Your client formed the corporation in question to provide technology to the medical profession to facilitate compliance with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). Your client is very excited because of the ability to secure several significant contracts with sufficient capital. Use the Internet and Strayer databases to research the advantages and disadvantages of debt for capital formation versus equity for capital formation of a corporation. Prepare a formal letter to the client using the six (6) step tax research process in Chapter 1 and demonstrated in Appendix A of your textbook as a guide. Write a one to two (1-2) page letter in which you: Compare the tax advantages of debt versus equity capital formation of the corporation for the client. Recommend to the client whether he / she should use debt or equity for capital formation of the new corporation, based on your research. Provide a rationale for the response. Your assignment must follow these formatting requirements: Be typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides; citations and references must follow APA or school-specific format. Check with your professor for any additional instructions. Include a cover page containing the title of the assignment, the student’s name, the professor’s name, the course title, and the date. The cover page and the reference page are not included in the required assignment page length. The specific course learning outcomes associated with this assignment are: Analyze tax issues regarding corporate formations, capital structures, income tax, non-liquidating distributions, or other corporate levies. Use technology and information resources to research issues in organizational tax research and planning. Write clearly and concisely about organizational tax research and planning using proper writing mechanics.
