Essays on Envelope

Perhaps one of the most commonly known rights guaranteed by the first ten amendments to the Constitution is the Fourth Amendment’s “right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers and effects against unreasonable searches” (U.S. Const. amend IV). Interestingly, while the meaning of the term “unreasonable” might seem intuitive, the Framers of the Constitution did not provide a specific or detailed definition of it. However, after the Supreme Court; relying on the fact that Article III of the Constitution vested the Court with the judicial power to “all cases” that arise under the “Constitution, ...

There is a focus on every level, within a business, to support brand growth and satisfaction of customer and shareholder expectations. However, this can be a challenge, when you consider how best to promote a brand, and build up its profitability. There is a fine line between when to cut corners to save money, or when to push the envelope to drive success, and when a brand goes too far and ultimately ostracizes the target audience through their actions. This is visible in all four of the articles reviewed. In each ...

Cases of inappropriately handled evidence are of common occurrence. The custodians of evidence in law enforcement agencies are often to blame for the mishandling, misplacing, loss, and destruction of evidence. Sometimes, the custodians do not take the appropriate care of their property rooms. Consequently, problems arise from the lack of accountability for evidence from the initial process of evidence collection through to the documentation process. Hence, it is crucial to document as many details as possible to avoid scrutiny of evidence during the trial process.

Evidence Collection

Collecting evidence in a systematic and careful sequence is crucial. The initial step in ...

Latent prints can be defined as the pretense of individual’s ridged skin. They are generally known as friction ridges or fingerprints. These impressions are regularly imperceptible to the exposed eye despite the fact that they are surrounding us and each one of us accidently leaves them everywhere. At the point when an investigator is dealing with a crime, other than taking a gander at the physical proof, one of the main things they do is check for fingerprints. This is an exceptionally sensitive process on the grounds that relying upon the surface a latent print can without much ...

If the police tap into the local telephone exchange of AT&T to know when a certain phone number becomes active with users without a warrant, the case will face a very difficult suppression motion. There is a safeguard against such processes; the Fourth Amendment. Hypothetically, if the police attempt to stake out a suspect’s location and try to get information whenever someone makes a call from the property, a warrant becomes mandatory. However, it is surprising the courts find that a warrant is unnecessary. The interpretation of the law should coexist along with the context in order to ...

What public- and private-sector resources could be used to respond to the threat?

First of all, it is essential to be aware of the fact that the act of chemical or biological terrorism may range from the food product contamination to the aerosolized anthrax spores’ dissemination. That is why, it is almost impossible to make the forecasts regarding the time of occurrence of particular terroristic act as well as the place and method, used for this purpose. At the same time, it is obvious that the public- and private-sector should not ignore the probability of such forms of terrorism. This statement may be supported by increased rates of the frequency of such ...

Abstract Most buildings once completed take at least one year to settle and require repairs and maintenance. However, many older multiple dwelling buildings have suffered unforeseen issues. The most common problem is water ingress through the building envelope. The reason why residential buildings are critical and require closer and immediate attention is because these buildings belong to people who have invested their life savings into them for comfort and spend most of their time in those places. Commercial and industrial buildings do not require as much attention and their environmental separation requirements vary because they are only occupied ...

1.0 Introduction

When the concept of green building emerges, environmentalists and researchers automatically assume the solutions lie on materials and their constituencies in buildings they are part of and the lifetime of the building. Exterior material directly in contact with the environment and natural elements may enhance the sustainability of the building, but may greatly impact the functions of nearby ecosystems. Hence building sustainability and environmental maintenance are not exactly interchangeable, and yet these terms are often utilized mistakenly. The pioneers of environmental constructs are not confirmed, although architectural historians suggest they date back prior to Ancient Roman times. Architects took ...

Q1. Describe the three main layers of the Sun’s interior.

The three main layers of the Sun’s interior are the core, the radiative envelope and the connective envelope.

The core is the center of the Sun, with a density of 150 g/cc and a temperature of 15 million K. This is the region where high energy fusion reactions take place and energy is produced. The energy produced is mainly in the form neutrino and gamma rays, which are actually high energy protons which travel several light years and supply energy to the Earth and other planets. The energy produced in the core then radiates outwards through the radiative zone. The ...

Introduction

A supernova is coined by some astronomers as the brilliant destruction of a star, and rightfully so because of the highly complex activities that resulted to the final outburst of the of the celestial body. While the typical explanation of a star explosion is a change in its core or the excessive absorption of massive matter from another star, it took years of study for astronomers to finally present it that way. It is stimulating to note that the study of supernova dated back to ancient China, the oldest known record was shortlisted from thousands of supposed supernovae. The supernova SN 185 ...

The need for a precise forecasting of the impacts of climate change on the future distribution of the Earth's principle biome is increasing. In this paper, forecasting methods covered include: the niche-theory models which categorize species by habitat (particularly environmental conditions where species may persist or perish). The general circulation models and the species-area curve models which consider large groups of species or all species. The existing climate models based on approximations of increasing carbon dioxide and, to some extent, by lessening sulfate aerosols, forecast that temperatures will rise by 2.5-10.4oF (1.4-5.8oC) between the year1990 and 2100. Greater warming ...

- Introduction Over the centuries, there has been the need to transmit secret information between a sender and a receiver. So many techniques have been developed and used in order to achieve this aim. One popular technique is cryptography; an art that encodes information as a cipher and can only be accessed by the sender or a receiver that knows the decryption code. The mere sight of coded information raises a lot of curiosity and suspicion. Anybody interested in such information may then commence efforts at deciphering the code. In order to eliminate this development, there was the need to transmit covert information ...

1.0 Mitochondria in eukaryotic cells Organelles are special compartments surrounded by a bilipid membrane which separates them from the rest of the cell which carry out specific functions. An example of an organelle is the mitochondria which are known to be the “powerhouse of the cell.” They have their own genome (mtDNA) and are semiautonomous. They are said to have evolved from a free α proteobacterium like organism (Takasugi, Yagi, et al., 2010). The word mitochondria is derived from two Greek words: “mitos” which means thread and “chondros” which means “grain”. These two words offer an apt description of the morphology ...

HIV VIRUS

The HIV virus is the causative agent of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV). It usually infects the CD4 + T Helper cell by binding to the cell membrane, this is then followed by membrane fusion; a process that allows the virus to release viral particles into the host cell. Once infected, the T-Helper cell turns into a HIV replicating cell since the viral RNA is converted into DNA by reverse transcriptase a process facilitated by the viral proteins [ CITATION bio \l 1033 ]. The double stranded viral DNA is then transported to the nucleus where it is fused with the normal host DNA by ...
