Question 3
1. Fast Ed, a stock trader, engages in a “pump and dump” scheme whereby he goes into Internet chat stock rooms and “hypes,” praises, and extols certain stocks he owns. He says such things as: “This is the best stock ever.” “This stock is great and will make us a fortune.” “You MUST own this stock in your portfolio.” He does repeatedly and uses several aliases. Then, when Fast Ed has “pumped up” the price of the stock to a certain level, he calls his broker to sell, that is, to “dump,” the stock. He makes a lot of money with this scheme. Fast Ed is likely acting:
Illegally pursuant to the common law tort of deceit since he did not disclose the aliases.
Illegally pursuant to the Securities Act of 1934 for engaging in stock manipulation.
Legally since he was careful not to make any misrepresentations of material fact regarding the stock, and just used “puffing” or sales talk.
Legally since everyone knows not to put any credence behind what people say in chat rooms, especially about stocks, and thus “Let the buyer beware.”

Question 7
1. The city of Lancaster, California, was attempting to develop its local economy. Costco, the giant retailer, wanted to expand its store into the next-door space occupied by the 99 Cents Only Store, which leased the premises. Costco informed the city that it would move to another neighboring city if it could not expand. So Lancaster attempted to buy out the lease of the 99 Cents Only Store, but the store refused. Consequently, Lancaster used its eminent domain power to condemn the 99 Cents Only Store property in order to turn the property over to Costco. The city explained that blight might ensue if Costco left. The city also noted that the 99 Cents Only Store had generated only about $40,000 a year in sales taxes, whereas Costco had generated more than $400,000. The city is willing to pay fair market value for the property. Whereupon, the 99 Cents Only Store sued the city to block the taking, arguing that the city was acting unconstitutionally. What is the most accurate statement regarding this lawsuit?
A. The city prevails since preventing blight, enhancing development, and increasing the tax base are legitimate rationales according to the Supreme Court for the government to exercise eminent domain.
B. The city prevails since a city or any government entity can seize private property for any purpose so long as just compensation is paid.
C. The 99 Cents Only Store prevails since eminent domain can only be used by government to seize property for airport construction or expansion.
D. The 99 Cents Only Store prevails since anti-trust law will prevent a large “big-box” retailer from driving out a small business from a community.

What is the likely legal result of this dispute?
a. Lisa is discharged from any and all contract responsibility and does not have to pay anything and can successfully sue Carla for breach of contract.
b. Lisa can sue and prevail since under the Uniform Commercial Code Carla’s performance was not perfect.
c. Lisa must pay Carla the agreed upon contract price minus an amount to correct the defect since the “substantial performance” doctrine of the common law prevails.

Question 18
1. Paul hires Janice, a college student, as a cash register employee at his sporting goods store. A vendor, Vinnie, comes in to sell Paul some office supplies. Yet Paul is very busy dealing with a unhappy customer. The vendor is insistent, however. So Paul turns to the vendor, and, pointing to Janice, says: “See my agent. She will take care of the order.” Whereupon, Janice deals with Vinnie, and then Janice in a writing commits to buy a large amount of office supplies from Vinnie Vendor for Paul. Paul claims that he is not liable for the order because Janice was not his agent and “just a college kid.” The likely result of any lawsuit between Paul and Vinnie will be:
Paul will prevail since Janice was merely an employee who had no express authority to act as an agent.
Vinnie will prevail if he can convince a jury that Paul granted apparent agency authority to Janice by his words and conduct toward Vinnie and that Vinnie reasonably believed that Janice was Paul’s agent.
Paul will prevail if Janice was a minor.
Paul will prevail if he can convince a jury that Vinnie’s grandfather was once a member of the Gambino Organized Crime Family of NYC.

i. What is your geographic sphere of interest? How was that chosen and why?
Environmental sustainability is a critical concern in our project. The mainly geographic sphere of interest is the surrounding area of East Wilder Road and the Connecticut River. This was chosen due to the project location and environmental impact throughout and after the construction. Those residents lived here will be influenced by the construction pollutants, especially the waste water will contaminate the Connecticut River.
ii. What is your time frame of interest? How/Why did you choose that?
For Environmental aspect, consider the expectation from our community partner. We are going to design for 100-year-storm culverts. With respect to the climate change, if the precipitation become larger which influence the flow rate, we may need to redesign the culvert system.
iii. How are air, surface water, soil, and groundwater impacted by your project?
Our project aims to repave the selected road section, redesign the culvert system and alleviate slope erosion problem. In the process of construction, it will release carbon dioxide and other construction pollutants which will influence the air quality of the surrounding area. The asphalt using to repave the road has the potential to leach carcinogenic compounds which will damage the soil. The construction waste may also contaminate water. The main purpose of redesigning culvert system is to collect the stormwater to mitigate runoff problem.In addition, the culvert material (PVC) release toxic chemicals damage the soil and water. On the other side, the reduction of sediment due to efficient culvert system improves the water quality and reduces pollution.
iv. What are the biological ecosystem impacts (positive and negative) by your project?
The initial construction will produce pollution to the surrounding green area and generate construction noise to the residential. Another environmental problem is that the soil underneath the paved areas absorbs very little water, the natural aquifers below the road will dry up, reducing the amount drinking water to people and wildlife. However, after the construction is finished, the erosion problem has been solved which promote the growth of forest and provide more habitat for animals. In addition, a nice road and environment can attract more people to visit.
v. Provide appropriate references for information you use to support your statements to the questions above. These should be recent enough to apply to the present situation. Case study examples from similar projects, and community partner derived information for your projects are usually the most credible references.

vi. Use established metrics whenever they are applicable as those are generally more widely recognized and accepted. Modify or create new metrics if you need to but do so with proper substantiation.
One way to analyze sustainability of a project is to review the metrics established by Vermont Act 250. There are 10 criteria need to be considered to improve sustainability in the project. Most of them are fall into the category of environmental sustainability which will be discussed in the next table.
vii. Create a table of environmental factors impacted by your project, with the positive and negative impacts quantified. Include the weighting of each of those factors within the geographic and time spheres you are using.
Factor Impact Geographic Time
Construction: negative Construction will produce pollution and noise to the residential. The surrounding area of East wilder road Depends on construction time
Air and water pollution :negative Air and water pollution due to construction will prevent the plant life and destroy wildlife habitat The surrounding area of East wilder road and the Connecticut River Short-term influence if the construction is under proper control and the wastes are
Runoff mitigation: positive Removing surface runoff water The surrounding area of East wilder road and the Connecticut River Culverts are design to be 100-year storm
Resolve slope erosion problem: positive Improve the growth of forest and provide more habitat for wildlife The stream site of the East Wider Road Long-term benefits which is good for the environment
Aesthetics impact: positive A nice road and environment can attract more visitors East wilder Road as well as the town of Lebnon. Long-term benefits both for residents and visitors.

viii. Address environmental sustainability in a manner consistent with:
1. The interests and goals of your community partner?
To prepare a 100-year-strom culverts system to mitigate runoff problem, reduce the sediment on the stream site to improve water quality. Resolve the slope erosion problem in order to improve the growth of green in the surrounding area to provide more habitat for animal’s life. The growth of the trees will also improve the air quality.
2. Your responsibility as a Professional Engineer?
As a Professional Engineer, environmental sustainability must be considered in all parts of our project. Sustainable materials need to be considered both in the pavement staff and culverts’ material. The runoff volume will be collect to reduce the pollution to the site and Connecticut river. Road will be repaved under safe construction. To clear the construction waste properly to mitigate the pollution problem.
3. What you have learned in your undergraduate education.
Sustainability is a critical concept in all design projects, we need to consider it in all steps of our design. Environmental sustainability is related to all aspects of our lives. Sustainable material need to be used in all parts of our project including both pavement and culverts. Additionally, adjust the angle of culverts can resolve the slope erosion problem in order to reduce the l

Case Study: Nursing Documentation in the Electronic Age
You are caring for five patients on a busy, 28-bed neurological medical-surgical unit, which recently transitioned to all electronic documentation and healthcare computerized provider order entry (CPOE). There is no longer any bedside paperwork.

All of your staff have completed the required training and you are the assigned as expert lead for any questions that may arise during your shift. The expectation is that all nurses and clinical staff will document all care delivery in the bedside computers located in each patient’s room or via the workstation on wheels (WOW).

However, you have noticed a trend with experienced nurses spending extra time at the end of their shifts (30 or more minutes) documenting the nursing care provided during the shift. The expectation is that they should be documenting care delivery as soon as it is complete rather than at the end of their shifts.
Explain how you would address the concern with the delay in nursing documentation with your team.
Do you see the transition to all electronic documentation as having a positive or negative effect on patient-centered care? Support your answer with evidence from the literature.
Explore the role of advancement in information technology and its effect in patient care. Does more technology use improve time with patients? Use at least two sources to support your response.

 

Research Essay: Ideas worth Exploring& Problems worth Solving
Length: 5-6 pages in MLA Style
______________________________________________________________
Over the second half of the term, we have had an opportunity to view and discuss several TED talks that explore social problems and

questions of identity. For your research paper, you will need to choose one of the following TED talks that present an idea that you feel

reveals a problem that is worth exploring at greater length:

• Adichie’s “The Danger of a Single Story”
• JamilaLyiscott’s “3 Ways to Speak English”
• Brian Stevenson’s “We Need to Talk about an Injustice”
• Sheryl Sandberg’s “Why We have Too Few Women Leaders”
• Cameron Russell’s “Looks aren’t everything. Believe me, I’m a Model”
• L.Z. Granderson’s “The Myth of the Gay Agenda”
• Clint Smith’s “The Danger of Silence”
• Ken Robinson’s “How Schools Kill Creativity”
• Barry Schwartz’s “The Paradox of Choice”

After selecting your talk, you will then need to identify a problem that is relatedto the talk and pose a feasible solution that will

either solve OR improve the problem.

Your goal is not to argue the same thing as the speaker but rather to build upon the topic by offering a more specific claim.

For example, I would not want to argue that women should “sit at the table” in order to improve their chances of working their way up the

corporate ladder, as that is Sandberg’s argument; however, I might want to propose that women’s leadership courses be instituted in public

high schools as a way of preparing women to enter male-dominated fields.

Your proposal should clearly identify a problem and pose a viable solution. The TED talk should serve as one source for your essay. It is

unnecessary to provide an extended close analysis of the talk for this essay.

Requirements
 5-6 pages in length
 At least 4 credible sources (1 should be the TED talk)
 An arguable and clearly-defined thesis articulated in “A should do B because of C” format
 MLA documentation with a “works cited” page
 Direct quotations from your sources along with your own explanation of these quotations
 Adherence to grammatical conventions
 Clear, Concise, and Convincing writing overall
