Production Design(movie)

Topic: Production Design(movie)
Choose a chapter(“Production Design”) and analyze a film of your choice(“Edward Scissorhands”) in detail using the concepts introduced in that chapter. Remember your paper must have a purpose. Why discuss the topic beyond “the fact that the filmmakers or actors do a great job.” What value does the particular element you are discussing add to the films thematic content, a particular aspect/focus of the film, extension of the genre, etc…? You must have a purpose for analyzing the film in terms of the chapter you select(“Production Design”). The analysis should come from you (no research please). Use detailed examples from the film text to support your analysis (a thorough and concise paper usually provides about three to four detailed examples to support the analysis and claim). You may not use the same film you have selected to present in class. Paper format: double-spaced, 12 font, Times New Roman and 1 inch margins. Your topic must be approved. Please drop box a digital copy (.doc/.docx) of your paper before class on the due date and bring a hard copy to class.

RESEARCH METHODS

Topic: RESEARCH METHODS
PLEASE READ THIS QUESTION OR DISCUSSION BEFORE ANSWERING THE INTERVIEW QUESTIONS AND INTERVIEW GUIDE ON PRIVACY, TECHNOLOGY AND THE LAW.
I AM GOING TO SEND SAMPLES TO HELP YOU WRITE THE PAPER.
QUESTION/DISCUSSION;
Your first task is to decide what you want to explore or understand as it relates to privacy, technology, and law. Then, come up with 5-10 interview questions and write your interview guide. Keep in mind when you are thinking about your research goal and interview questions that your sample will necessarily have to be the general public. While it is totally acceptable to want to understand something that requires interviewing the regulators at the FCC, we don’t have that luxury in our practice. It doesn’t matter what your specific goal is as long as your interview questions have some kind of relationship to this issue.

Response to Model MUN

Topic: Response to Model MUN
the initial question was:In Chapter 8 of the Parliament of Man, Kennedy confirms the prior 7 chapters are establishing that the UN is not a success or a failure; It is an organization with a mixed record. He then posits that we will continue to see areas of success and areas of failure in the decades to come. Lastly, he notes that reforming the UN is the only way to [SLOWLY] prevent future failures.
For this discussion question, propose a reasonable (meaning, modest) reform to the UN that would help the UN avoid a failure discussed in previous chapters of the book. Be sure to explain how your reform will help solve the issue the UN is faced with!
i need to write a response to this two paragraphs for the second part of the assignment.
The United Nations is a valuable organization that has done a lot to help the world. However, it currently suffers from a public perception of being rooted in the past. In the book, “Parliament of Man,” the author argues that, “if the United States remains encrusted in its 1945 constitution, it will appear—and really be – increasingly anachronistic” (Kennedy 245). One of the major reasons for the anachronistic appearance of the United Nations is the dominance imposed by countries that used to have a lot of power, but may not be as powerful today. This is particularly important because the balance of power is changing in the world. In particular, China and India have very large economies that are predicted to continue their fast rates of growth in the future. The peace settlement in 1945 gave perpetual veto powers to 5 powerful nations, but these veto powers carry with them the potential to be abused and acts to inhibit the functionality of the United Nations.
I propose that the veto powers be replaced by a supermajority vote of the fifteen most powerful nations. Under this system, the five most powerful nations can have two votes, with the next ten most powerful nations having one vote. The rest of the United Nations members will have a total of 5 votes that are decided by a majority takes all approach. This will yield a total of 25 votes. Next, before any United Nations action can begin, at least 17 votes will be required. This type of reform will show the world that the United Nations is no longer stuck in the past and is willing to take the necessary steps to prove to the world that it is an inclusive organization.

Case brief for Blogging

Topic: Case brief for Blogging
Here is a link for a reported case from earlier this year. http://cdn.ca9.uscourts.gov/datastore/opinions/2014/01/17/12-35238.pdf (Links to an external site.)
or Obsidian v. Cox.rtf Something to notice in this opinion is that it is NOT a U.S. Supreme Court opinion and so it looks a bit different than the others we have briefed. Some elements may not be as easy to find as you have gotten used to in previous assignments.
Use the case brief outline and prepare a one or two page brief.
Remember, too, the case brief outline is the one we have been using for the previous outlines. If you have trouble downloading it from here, just go back to previous downloads.
