Comparing Federal & State Courts: United States Courts. Retrieved from http://www.uscourts.gov/about-federal-courts/court-role-and-structure/comparing-federal-state-courts
The line between state and federal prosecution can seem blurred at times. Here is an explanation of the duel sovereignty doctrine and how it can be applied.
For this Assignment, you will be exploring the differences between state and federal jurisdiction in criminal prosecutions with respect to crimes against persons. The primary objective of this Assignment is to explain how the same conduct may be prosecuted either in state or federal court pursuant to applicable state and federal statutes. Be sure to select a crime against person, such as certain types of sexual assault or kidnapping.
You are to identify ONE specific crime, a crime against a person, and describe the following:
Create the factual scenario giving rise to the criminal prosecution in either state or federal court.
Indicate the name of the specific crime which may be prosecuted in federal court based on the scenario and provide the definition of that crime, including a citation or reference to the applicable statute.
Similarly, indicate the name of the crime which may be prosecuted based upon the same conduct in a state court. Be sure to identify the state statute, and as you did in #2, define the crime and provide a citation to the authority.
Explain a cultural factor that may influence how the crime may be prosecuted. A cultural factor might include a person’s socio-economic, ethnic or religious background; in your response, discuss how various cultures might interpret the wording of two statutes differently. Be sure to discuss how one culture might view a crime differently than another, based on the culture’s particular viewpoints.
Your paper should be written in APA format with a length not to exceed 2 pages (excluding cover and reference pages).
Note: This Assignment requires outside research. Use at least two credible
sources beyond the text material and discuss how you evaluated the credibility
of the resources used. You may consult the Library, the Internet, the textbook,
other course material, and any other outside resources in supporting your task.
It is recommended that you look to your state criminal codes for examples of crimes that may be prosecuted at the state
level. Be sure to include a statutory citation.

CASE FOR ANALYSIS | The Boys Versus Corporate
NASCAR fans expect their drivers to be smart, crafty, and calculating and, if need be, playing just this
side of the rule book—in the garage and on the track. Loyal fans “know” their drivers and can easily
picture themselves drinking a beer or spending an afternoon tinkering under the hood with a favorite
driver. In the wild, fast-paced world of NASCAR, drivers can joke and pal around with competitors one
day and trade word-for-word or, if necessary, fist-for-fist with a rival the next day. They defiantly wear
monikers like “Fireball” and “The Intimidator.”
And why not? The roots of the sport trace back to Prohibition when moonshine runners in souped-up
cars raced across the hills of Appalachia outsmarting and outrunning the “Feds” and “Revenuers,” taking
risks with life and the law to make deliveries. As reputations grew, the desire for head-to-head
competition to establish bragging rights resulted in informal races.
As the popularity of these races increased, one driver, Big Bill France, gathered drivers and set up a
meeting in Daytona in December 1947 to establish and standardize rules for the many tracks scattered
across the region. At that meeting, a new governing organization, the National Association for Stock Car
Auto Racing (NASCAR) was born. Two months later, drivers met in the first NASCAR sanctioned race.
Across decades, NASCAR has remained a “family business” with third-generation Brian France
named as CEO in 2014. Still headquartered in Daytona, with offices scattered around the country,
NASCAR has expanded into Mexico and Canada. “The Boys” became “Big Business” and the nation’s
second largest spectator sport with television coverage in over 150 countries and team sponsorships
attracting Fortune 500 companies.
By contrast, the majority of the racing teams remained based in the hills around Charlotte, North
Carolina, setting up an organizational tug-of-war. Drivers and the fan base remain faithful to traditional
stock car racing and to the traditional tracks, devoted to the notion of “let the boys drive,” including rulebreaking
to gain an advantage.
The outlaw image is cherished by NASCAR’s fan base, as one sports columnist warned: “If the
outlaw blood ever is completely drained, then NASCAR will be as colorless as the white flag that signals
one lap to go. And its popularity could be just as fleeting.”
From the beginnings to recent history, it would appear there are few worries about the loss of that
“outlaw image” and controversies are epic. In 1983, Richard Petty’s Charlotte victory was allowed to
“stand” despite over-the-limit engine cylinders. To the delight of fans, popular driver Junior Johnson
continued the wild ways of his youth running moonshine for his dad, sneaking in illegal car modifications
when he could, if it meant tearing down and rebuilding a car. He often got into trouble with NASCAR,
but stock car traditionalists were thrilled.
Two of the sport’s biggest scandals occurred in 2001 and 2013. In a NASCAR move overshadowed by
the death of Dale Earnhardt Sr. at the 2001 Daytona 500, eighteen teams were fined/penalized for rules
violations. At Richmond in 2013 leading up to the Daytona 500, another six teams were penalized and
fined. In that rules violation dragnet, Michael Waltrip made NASCAR history with the largest-ever fine
($300,000), a penalty of 100 championship points, and a penalty of 100 team points for the use of what
fans and the media have come to call “rocket fuel.” Year after year, drivers and crews get angry,
apologize, and then shrug off the controversies as they continue to search for the “winning edge.”
At the other end of the tug-of-war lies corporate NASCAR, the media, and sponsors concerned about
image and any hint of impropriety—a modern version of those chasing the moonshine runners. Their
focus is on safety, rules, fines, and penalties. The NASCAR rule book is in a constant state of growth and
revision. Along with pre-race inspections, the winning vehicle is stripped down and examined for any
evidence of tampering or cheating. There are currently six penalty levels for rule violations for drivers,
crews, and vehicles ranging from P-1 (minor infractions) to P-6 (suspension).

Even the crucial area of driver safety enters into this cultural tug-of-war. Drivers claim that NASCAR
is more concerned with the crackdown on rules violations than on driver safety. NASCAR’s focus ranges
from assigning and revoking car numbers at will, and the strict enforcement of a no-communications ban
between crews/drivers and their rivals, to points penalties for drivers who refuse to talk to the media.
Teams point out the frequency with which serious issues such as safety regulations seem to follow highprofile
wrecks and deaths.
Fire retardant suits were required following the fiery death of Glen “Fireball” Roberts. The throttle
“kill-switch” came on the heels of Adam Petty’s death. Rules governing G-forces on drivers during
crashes came after a series of deaths in 2000–2001. And the relocation of the driver’s seat near the center
of the vehicle, along with the requirement for installation of HANS (Head & Neck Support Device) came
after the death of Dale Earnhardt.
Meanwhile, sport officials and sponsors appear to freak out over minute vehicle modifications that
can give a driver an edge. Those modifications are not unethical, say stock car traditionalists; they are
part of the culture—rivals and team crews discovering that undetectable edge that brings victory.
No one was prepared for NASCAR’s latest move. In 2014, new CEO Brian France and NASCAR
suddenly threw a monkey-wrench into tradition in a move that is both exciting for spectators and
dangerous for drivers.
The financial team has been properly selected and charged to proceed with their analysis of EEV’s financial statements. In the course of their evaluation, they will be assessing the firm’s operating performance, benchmarking their competitors, and looking at the industry using financial ratios as their source of measurement. However, the chief executive officer (CEO) of Electronic Equipment USA agrees with numerous practitioners who promote the use of nonfinancial measures as well as financial measurements to evaluate the performance of a given firm. Nevertheless, Tony agrees that nonfinancial measurements can be valuable, and he tends to support the premise that when evaluating operating performance, benchmarking competitors, and comparing industry results, nonfinancial measurements have little measurable value.

the introduction should be the definition of adaptive reuse, the topic i have to treat and how it can be tested.
the body is the case study ( i already chose the good hotel in london ) i should talk about the past and the present of the building, the history, the changes that occured, tell why its an example of adaptive reuse, compare it with other building that have been reused ( a similar building to good hotel in london is a floating hotel in amsterdam per example)
which tactics where used, which one defines the most the project, what does it say about changes in design, society and culture.
and finally the conclusion that just gonna summarize everything.
also this essay should contain some pictures to support the case study with a clear caption description of the image, figure numbers, and sources.
i tried to write something as a start if its good you can keep it and continue on it
The word’s population has grown over the centuries and this growth has brought
people to think about new ways to optimize their lifestyle. Nowadays,
architects refer to adaptive reuse as a sustainable process to make something
new from an old infrastructure.

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.
Additional information on the incident, including a video summary, can be found at the following link: http://www.csb.gov/little-general-store-propane-explosion/
Complete the assignment as detailed below.
Part I: From the information in the report, create a chart listing events and causal factors for the incident in Microsoft Word, Open Office, or a similar word processing software. If you choose to use a program other than Microsoft Word, be sure to save and submit the document as a Microsoft Word document (i.e., .doc, .docx). The objective of this project is to provide you with an opportunity to use this important and very practical analytical tool. The chart does not have to be infinitely detailed, but the key sequence of events should be charted as should the key conditions surrounding the events. Keep in mind that the purpose of an events and causal factors chart is to aid in identifying which conditions could be causal factors.
Use the charting procedures on pages 72–76 of your textbook to help you with this assignment. In addition, refer to the example events and causal factors (ECF) chart in the Unit IV Lesson for an example of this type of chart.
Part II: On a separate page, discuss the potential causal factors that are revealed in the analysis. How do these causal factors compare to the causal factors found in the CSB’s investigation report? Do you think more analysis is needed? This part of the assignment should be a minimum of one page in length.
Upload Parts I and II as a single document. For Part II of the assignment, you should use academic sources to support your thoughts. Any outside sources used, including the sources mentioned in the assignment, must be cited using APA format and must be included on a references page.
Useful hints: In Microsoft Word, you can use parentheses for events (events),
square brackets for conditions [conditions], and brackets for the accident {accident}; you may also use a similar convention,
such as color-coded text or the shapes that are available within Microsoft Word. Whatever convention you use, be sure you
provide some kind of key.
