The Day the Machines Went off

In your introduction, briefly describe the plot of a disaster movie in which an electromagnetic pulse causes the shutdown of all electronic equipment and financial activity to grind to a halt.

Then, using what you have learned during the course, from the text readings, and from scholarly sources, forecast the effects of such an event on financial institutions and the economy using the following prompts as a framework:

1. Hypothesize how the four functions of money would be missed.
2. Explain what the immediate effects would be on:
   1. the rationing of goods,
   2. employment,
   3. demand for paper money.
   4. demand for commodity money (e.g., gold),
   5. production of goods and services
3. Speculate what emergency measures might be enacted to keep the economy running in lieu of having an organized banking system.
4. Identify and justify any incidents from history that tell us what we might expect if an electromagnetic pulse actually caused the shutdown of all electronic equipment and financial activity to grind to a halt.

Develop a working battleship game with the following;

–2 [10][10] grids; one for each player.

–4 game modes:

-player vs player.

-player vs computer easy: randomly fires.

-player vs computer medium:  make educated guesses from previous hits along the x axis.

-player vs computer hard: make educated guesses from previous hits along the x and y axis.

–5 ships may be placed for each player:

-Aircraft Carrier 5 long

-Battleship 4 long

-Cruiser  3 long 

-Destroyer 3 long

-Submarine 2 long

–Display grids should show x for hits o for misses. When a ship is destroyed the first character in the name of the ship should be displayed.

–Ships can only be placed horizontally or vertically. They can not be placed diagonally.

–Ships can not be placed outside the grid or on top of eachother.

–Once a corrdinant has be fired, it can not be fired again.

–A set of random messages should be displayed for hits and misses.

Program should be in C with only C and user defined libraries. Comments on source and header file(s).  A function diagram seperately. 

. Any conclusion drawn for the t-test statistical process is only as good as the research question asked and the null hypothesis formulated. T-tests are only used for two sample groups, either on a pre post-test basis or between two samples (independent or dependent). The t-test is optimized to deal with small sample numbers which is often the case with managers in any business. When samples are excessively large the t test becomes difficult to manage due to the mathematical calculations involved.

Calculate the “t” value for independent groups for the following data using the formula presented in the module. Check the accuracy of your calculations. Using the raw measurement data presented above, determine whether or not there exists a statistically significant difference between the salaries of female and male human resource managers using the appropriate t-test. Develop a research question, testable hypothesis, confidence level, and degrees of freedom. Draw the appropriate conclusions with respect to female and male HR salary levels. Report the required “t” critical values based on the degrees of freedom. Your response should be 2-3 pages.

Assignment 2: Terry V.Ohio 392 U.S. 1, 88 S. Ct. 1868, 20 L. ED.2d 889, 1968 U.S.

Due Week 8 and worth 150 points

The Fourth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution limits the power of the police to make arrests, search people and their property, and seize objects and contraband, such as illegal drugs or weapons. These limits are the bedrock of search and seizure law and are ultimately at the root of your right to privacy.

Analyze the following case in preparation for a systematic approach to your synthesis of law and fact:

• Terry v. Ohio located at http://caselaw.lp.findlaw.com/cgi-bin/getcase.pl?court=us&vol=392&invol=1

Write an eight to ten (8-10) page legal Memorandum paper in which you:

1. Summarize five (5) key aspects of Terry v. Ohio.
2. Posit whether or not you believe law enforcement violated Terry and the other men’s right to privacy which the Fourth Amendment guarantees. Justify your position.
3. Examine the dissenting opinion of Justice Douglas, as discussed in the case. Discuss the origins and importance of probable cause as it relates to law enforcement’s discretion to search Terry’s car in this case.
4. Examine the two part test provided by the Court in Terry that first asks whether the officer’s action is justified at its inception; and second, asks whether it is reasonably related in scope to the circumstances which justified the interference in the first place.Discuss whether or not this test leaves officers with too much discretion when making a determination to stop an individual. Provide a rationale for your response.
5. Examine the Court’s holding in Terry that provides that probable cause is based upon the totality of the circumstances. Review the factors that help shape the totality of circumstances, such as specialized knowledge of the officers, investigative inferences, personal observations of suspicious behavior, and information from other sources. Question whether these factors in question are too subjective to establish probable cause. Provide a rationale for your response.
6. Debate the validity of the Court’s holding that “whenever a police officer accosts an individual and restrains his freedom to walk away, he has “seized” that person with the meaning of the Fourth Amendment. Justify your response.
7. Use at least two (2) quality references. Note: Wikipedia and other Websites do not qualify as academic resources.

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:

• Illustrate the workings of the adversary system.
• Use technology and information resources to research issues in U.S. Courts.
• Write clearly and concisely about U.S. Courts using proper writing mechanics and APA style conventions.
