What are the relevant facts to consider when making such a determination? Is the dissent correct?
TOPIC: Cases involving sexual abuse of children pose a special problem for a proportionality analysis under the Eighth Amendments Cruel and Unusual Punishment Clause. Such crimes inflict the immediate damage of the criminal conduct, but also the likelihood of lifetime emotional injury. On the other hand, a crime of offensive touching a child is not the same as rape or murder of that child. In Hanf v. State, 182 S0. 2d 704 (Fla. App. 2015) the defendant was sentenced to life in prison for lewd and lascivious molestation of a child under 12 years of age. (Florida has eliminated parole for most crimes.) The criminal conduct was unwanted touching of the childs breast. The appeals court affirmed the sentence, holding that it was not grossly disproportionate to the crime. What are the relevant facts to consider when making such a determination? Is the dissent correct?

The Originality report does not actually recommend changes. It does point out where you may need to add a citation or quotation marks (if not already cited). Once you use it a few times, you will appreciate this tool, as it will assist you in improving quality and content, as well as avoid plagiarism. Your goal is to keep direct quotations to a minimum and to make sure that you do not just cut and paste material. Ensure that all your references are cited. A report with a similarity index less than 25% is acceptable for undergraduate level work.
Your paper will be evaluated according to the Writing Assignment Grading shown below. To maximize your grade, be sure to use the proper organization (intro, body, conclusion) and follow APA style.

Describe how mastery-level grading or standards-based grading applies to the 2 paragraphs above.
In Stiggins (2014) the author poses the question, If communication takes the form of a test score or a letter grade, then proper interpretation requires that the recipient understand the specific relationship between the letters or numbers used and the achievement standards they are intended to represent. If this understanding is missing, miscommunication or at least inadequate communication is assured and productive action may remain beyond reach (p. 16).
Depending upon the source referenced, letter grades have been used for one or two centuries. Considering the above reference to miscommunication around letter grading, and the possible subjectivity and inconsistency associated with letter grades, caution in sole dependence upon letter grades or test scores to communicate student performance may be advised.
Write a 250- to 300-word response to the following:

Is it ethical to receive a special price for services or goods from a client or coachee?
Step 1) Consider that ethical dilemmas are called that because there is often not one clear-cut answer for what is right and what is wrong. The coaching relationship is fraught with ethical dilemmas, including:
Emotional, behavioral, or personality issues with coachees (such as potential suicides or illegal acts)
Emotional, behavioral, or personality issues with the coach (prolonging the coaching arrangement for financial gain)
Failure to respect professional boundaries between coach and coachee (possible inappropriate personal involvement or abuse of power)
Conflicts of interest among various stakeholders (such as failure to keep confidential information from management)
Step 2) Read about the main ethical considerations governing coaches and coaching relationships in the following book found in the Trident Online Library. The authors propose a model for ethical decision-making in coachingthe ACTION modelspecifically designed for people working in leadership coaching. Although written for professional coaches, leaders who coach subordinates in a mentoring role can benefit from using the guidelines in this chapter to shape their own behavior as well.

Step 3) Read this classic article on the ethics of mentoring that specifically addresses ethical issues from the perspective of the imbalance of power between the mentor (or boss) and the subordinate.
Moberg, D. J. & Valasquez, M. (2004) The ethics of mentoring, Business Ethics Quarterly 14(1): 95-122.
Step 4) Below are several ethical situations a coach may have:
Is it ethical to receive a special price for services or goods from a client or coachee?
Is it ethical to date a client/coachees sister or brother?
Is it ethical to buy a car from a client/coachee who owns the only dealership in the area?
Is it ethical to ask a client/coachee for a ride to the airport?
Are there circumstances where it would be OK to have a sexual relationship with a client/coachee?
When reviewing ethical situations, coaches should consider the following elements within the coaching relationship:
How much of a power differential is there between the coach and the other person?
Will it be brief contact or will it be continuous or episodic contact over a long time?
Has the relationship been permanently terminated, and does the client understand that as well?
Step 5) Select one of the ethical situations from a through e above.
Step 6) Answer the following questions below using question and answer (Q&A) format; in other words, include the original question along with your response. Within your post, support your responses with information from the background materials or reputable outside sources, and provide the full citation at the end. Use APA format for your references. Bring in your own personal experiences, readings, and research, where applicable.
Which ethical situation did you select?
In your opinion, would this situation be unethical? Why or why not?
How does the element of power factor into your opinion?
How does the element of duration factor into your opinion?
How does the element of termination factor into your opinion?
Are you drawing on any particular ethical framework in formulating your response (for example, the ethical frameworks introduced in ETH501)? If so, identify what that is and cite your source.

While a profit maximising firm will increase price and reduce output by more than a sales maximising firm when there is an increase in variable cost. Do you agree with this statement? Discuss.
