Hypothetical

The following scenario is based upon real events that happened to a family in Cheshire, Connecticut on July 23, 2007. You will use this scenario as the basis of your papers for Units 3, 4, 6, and 8. You can read more about the actual case online by reading the source below.

Swartz-Turfle, H. A Connecticut Nightmare. Retrieved from http://truecrimecases.blogspot.com/2012/08/a-conne….

Dr. William Petit, a well-respected endocrinologist, lived with his wife and two daughters in an upscale community in Cheshire, Connecticut. Dr. Petit met his wife Jennifer, who worked as a nurse, at the Children’s Hospital. They were married for 22 years. Their older daughter, 18-year-old Hayley, loved to play basketball with her father in their driveway and had been accepted to Dartmouth to study medicine in the fall. Their younger daughter, 11-year-old Michaela, who still wore braces, spent time learning to cook with her mother.

Komisarjevsky was a trouble teen, committing his first crime at the age of 12 when he stole a car. His criminal escapades, including countless burglaries, escalated and he even looked for dangerous situations where he might get caught. While other criminals would try to steal during the day when people were at work, Komisarjevsky preferred to do so at night while the occupants were home because he enjoyed the thrill and rush he got. He lived two miles away from the Petit home and came armed with latex gloves, a gun, zip ties, and night vision goggles.

Steven Hayes met Komisarjevsky in a halfway house after they had been released from prison. Hayes was a drug addict and was nervous, loud, and awkward. He had no experience as a burglar but had been arrested 26 times for various offenses and had lived much of his life since 1980 in and out of prison. Most, if not all, of his crimes involved his addiction to drugs and did not involve stealth or reconnaissance. He was supposed to remain in prison until 2008 but, ironically, had been released early for good behavior. Hayes and Komisarjevsky were an odd pair together, but were later described as clicking “like a pair of handcuffs.”

On Saturday, July 22, 2007, Komisarjevsky listened to Guns N’ Roses in the parking lot of a supermarket when he noticed the Petit minivan next to his car with three female occupants. Mrs. Petit and Michaela went into the supermarket while Haley stayed in the car. Komisarjevsky phoned Hayes while waiting in the supermarket parking lot. Hayes was destitute and close to losing his parole. Komisarjevsky’s ankle bracelet had just been removed and his urge for a thrill was overwhelming.

When mother and daughter returned with groceries, Komisarjevsky followed their van several car lengths behind them until he saw where they lived. Komisarjevsky broke into another house just miles away from the Petit home on July 22, 2007 while five people slept upstairs. However, their activities were halted when they heard a car pull into the driveway. But their night was not over. The pair broke into another house and then called it a night, but they started making plans for a more lucrative and serious invasion. Although Hayes was inexperienced as a burglar, he needed money fast. They targeted the Petits for Sunday night.

At 3 a.m. on the morning of the tragedy, after a night of drinking and drug use, Komisarjevsky and Hayes arrived on foot at the Petit house. The pair broke into the house and beat Dr. Petit with a baseball bat before dragging him to the basement, putting a garbage bag over his head, and tying him up to restrain him. The men then went upstairs and tied up Mrs. Petit and her daughters. They then began stealing items from the house, texting each other in the process. They took jewelry, cash, and even a jar of change that Michaela collected for multiple sclerosis research.

Hayes then took four canisters and filled them with gasoline before sunrise. During this time, Komisarjevsky sexually assaulted Michaela and forced her to the bathroom to shower, taking photos as a memento. Haley put up a valiant fight and tried to reach authorities but was beaten when she fought back. When Hayes returned with the gasoline, he forced Mrs. Petit to drive to her bank and withdraw $10,000. Mrs. Petit took out more money than requested to appease Hayes and passed a note to a teller, who called 911. When Mrs. Petit and Hayes returned, Hayes raped and strangled her. The men then poured gasoline on the women and lit a match even though the daughters were still alive. With his house on fire, Dr. Petit emerged from the basement, badly beaten and legs bound, just as authorities were arriving. However, it was too late to save his family. Komisarjevsky and Hayes ran from the burning house. Witnesses could see Hayes wearing one of the girl’s hats and laughing as he ran. They tried to flee in the family’s minivan but were soon caught by the police.

feedback response to R2P

/in /by

Please respond to the following with meaningful feedback, and please respond with 200 words.

The Responsibility to Protect (R2P) is the United Nations movement implementing the ideologies that it is a countries moral obligation to protect other countries in need. This protection goes a lot further than large matters at hand, for instance not only systemic levels of action such as wars which may engage large demographic areas of the world, but it includes domestic situations which on the larger scale would be considered quite insignificant perhaps pertaining to genocide in underdeveloped countries. With a change of tone, these countries experiencing genocide (although underdeveloped) may be experiencing immense and very significant numbers of casualties depending on their situation. Although I feel that countries must focus more on their own issues at hand including the advancement of their own citizens which includes things like health care . Depending on the situation we may be morally obligated to engage in other countries relations and protect them. Which leads me to feel like the United States responsibility to protect depends on the situation.

The United States can not make the decision to spend its time and funds on every country in need, it is not economically practical. But I feel like the situation at hand is the deciding factor. It is hard to create a level or crucialness for which countries get help. I do not want to make it seem as a situation in which countries earn or are graced the United States attention and efforts. My only point is that it is not possible to help every other country when we have many of our own politically bases issues. However I do feel like if the epidemic or genocide is so inhumane and becoming a real issue, it is our moral obligation to help them. It is more of a morality call than anything else. For example I do feel like the US may be experiencing a real issue currently taking place in Syria where “populations continue to face the threat of mass atrocity crimes committed by government forces and their allies in Syria’s ongoing cilvil war. Various non-state armed groups, including the Islamic State of Iraq and Levant, are also committing war crimes and crimes against humanity”(Pop at Risk r2p). I do feel like the US may be morally obligated to intervene in this current conflict as it is escalating quite radically at an alarming rate. This destruction shows very dangerous and serious warfare which can leave serious damage and repercussions to humanity and it is time to take action.

Assignment Description

Case Information

Fran S. was arrested for prescription fraud when she tried to obtain prescription painkillers at a pharmacy with a fake prescription. You have been asked to assess her situation and make treatment recommendations to the court.

Fran S. is a 32-year-old employee at a local bank. She was briefly hospitalized after a car accident 14 months ago and sustained injuries to her neck and back. Her doctor prescribed painkillers for these injuries. He told her that she should only take the painkillers for a few months, but Fran found that she liked the feelings of calm and relaxation that the painkillers produced. Even though the pain from her neck and back went away, she kept telling her doctor that she was in pain so that he would continue prescribing the drugs. When her own doctor told her that he would no longer prescribe the painkillers for her, she found it difficult to go for more than a few days without the painkillers (she reported feeling anxious, irritable, and “not herself” when she stopped taking them) and found another doctor who would prescribe her painkillers.

Fran told herself that the painkillers helped her get through her day, but she started missing deadlines at work and repeatedly coming in late, putting her job in jeopardy. Her husband also reported a difference in her behavior, saying that she was detached, much more irritable and likely to start arguments over minor issues, which had not been a problem in the past. Fran started taking larger doses of the painkillers because she had stopped feeling their effects at the smaller doses. Her second doctor became suspicious of how frequently she needed prescriptions and refused to prescribe her any more drugs. Fran tried again to stop using the painkillers but found that she was experiencing problems, such as headaches, blurred vision, and anxiety, when she was not taking the painkillers. She could not find another doctor to prescribe her the painkillers, so Fran started submitting fake prescriptions to the pharmacy.

Literature Eval Table

/in /by

In nursing practice, accurate identification and application of research is essential to achieving successful outcomes. Being able to articulate the information and successfully summarize relevant peer-reviewed articles in a scholarly fashion helps to support the student’s ability and confidence to further develop and synthesize the progressively more complex assignments that constitute the components of the course change proposal capstone project.

For this assignment, the student will provide a synopsis of four peer-reviewed articles from nursing journals using an evaluation table that determines the level and strength of evidence for each of the four articles. The articles should be current within the last 5 years and closely relate to the PICOT statement developed earlier in this course. The articles may include quantitative research, descriptive analyses, longitudinal studies, or meta-analysis articles. A systematic review may be used to provide background information for the purpose or problem identified in the proposed capstone project. Use the “Literature Evaluation Table” resource to complete this assignment.

While APA style is not required for the body of this assignment, solid academic writing is expected, and in-text citations and references should be presented using APA documentation guidelines, which can be found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center.

Cultural Ethnographic Interview and Paper

/in /by

2ND Paper: Midterm Paper– Cultural Ethnographic Interview and Paper

o See Due Dates

o 50 points

o As a student in this CDL course, you will be required to complete both a Midterm & Final Paper. You cannot pass the course without a midterm and final paper.

o This midterm cultural ethnographic paper is a report on an organization, family or group that you picked to interview and report the answers to the majority of the questions listed below.

o You will be acting like a pseudo-anthropologist in the field conducting an ethnographic interview (see book for description of this process), and it is an important research effort of this course. Many students report this as an excellent opportunity to learn more about a co-worker, friend, or casual acquaintance’s culture.

o You do not need outside resources for this paper, such as information from journals, books or the Internet.

o Write a 2 ½ -3 ½ page, single-spaced paper entitled, Cultural Ethnographic Research on a topic that would allow you to interview and explore in detail a family, society, organization/group or culture of your choice, and must be one different than your own. (See List Below). Choosing to interview someone from another culture will allow each of you to do some ethnographic work that will make your midterm cultural ethnographic paper more interesting and relevant and parallel work an anthropologist might do in the field.

o Students must incorporate at least five cultural anthropological concepts/terms, issues or topics discussed. Use your book as a guide for anthropological terms. The terms highlighted at the bottom of the page are anthropological concepts. Some examples are kinship terms, marriage rites, how lineage is traced (matrilineal, patrilineal), descriptions of rites of passage, or linguistic terminology.

o Post (no attachments) your paper on Blackboard under Assignments, Midterm Paper.

The best way to approach this assignment is:

1. Choose a family, group, or organization; one that you are not a part of but interests you.

2. Get permission to interview that person or group (please avoid interviewing a minor under 18 years old without a parent present).

3. Prepare interview questions that would allow you to derive at any of the following information.

a) Tell me who you interviewed (use a fake name if protecting identity of informant), their age, gender, in what situation did you interview them (location), and why you chose them. Make sure you write comments only based on their single perspective,which is influenced by their generation and gender. Be careful not to generalize about the entire culture from only 1 informants information.

b) Introduce the culture from which your informant comes from (Where in the world it is located, what is the population like)

c) Describe wedding, & marriage practices & expectations, (Matchmaking, role of divorce, monogamy, abstinence, dowry, family obligations, live with parents until married)

d) Views on birth (showers, baptisms, ceremony for naming, circumcision, out of wedlock births, adoption, abortion)

d) Language (expectations, reading and writing, body language)

e)Gender roles & Age Expectations (jobs, children)

f)Views on Death (heaven, mourning, spirits/ghosts, burial within 24 hours, cremation, wake, celebration)
