Three Speech Introductions Discussion
As we move closer and closer towards the major speech assignments in this course, it is time to start thinking about how you can learn from all that you have read, observed, and learned this semester. In this weeks discussion board you will start thinking about the start of your speeches. Your task this week is to film yourself giving THREE separate introductions for your upcoming speech. By now, you should have begun planning your speech. Remember that it is those first words out of your mouth that really get your audience engaged. In your initial post, Film yourself in three separate clips (not one giant clip) giving a potential intro for that speech. Note that all intros will be on the same topic and for the same speech. Each intro should be decidedly different from the others; use different tactics in each. After getting our attention, please be sure to clearly state your thesis and give a preview of the points you will share in your speech at the end of each clip.Additionally, make sure to write a short statement in your post explaining which of your three introductions you think is the best and why?

The Future of Legal Research Discussion
In connection with preparation of Week 5’s Case Study, please access the link posted under Week 5’s Required Resources to material developed by the California Western School of Law outlining the history and relevance of West’s Digests. (link below) “Modern legal researchers do not search for rules with the print digest and facts with computers. Instead, they prefer to search for everything using an electronic resource that is fast and easy to use. Unfortunately, tomorrows lawyers are unaware of some common shortcomings of electronic research and do not possess the strategies to compensate for them. The blame for this situation does not lie with the vendors who trained them, the college librarians who failed to teach them information literacy skills, or the databases that are not easy enough to use. The blame must be placed squarely upon law librarians who have not recognized the needs of their patrons and who must do more to make them excellent legal researchers in the electronic environment.” [The Death of the Digest and the Pitfalls of Electronic Research: What Is the Modern Legal Researcher to Do? (Lee F. Peoples)]After your review of this weeks course material regarding digests, please answer the following questions:

Sociology Threats to The Global Environment Presentation
Congratulations! The United Nations has hired you as a consultant on global issues.Many of the UN members are not satisfied with the progress of the Millennium Development Goals. They believe that the goals focus on the wrong issues. There is a disconnect between the types of issues the developed countries in the UN believe are priorities versus the issues that developing countries of the UN want to prioritize. For example, the country of Burundi has requested that one of the goals be focused on food security. However, Austria is adamant that the major current global issue is to mediate ceasefires within countries experiencing a civil war.You have been asked to provide an unbiased perspective and identify the four issues that have the biggest impact on the global environment.Of the eight major threats listed below, choose the four that you consider the most critical.Energy sourcesCivil warGlobalizationPoor health of entire populationsLack of educational opportunitiesCultural taboosInappropriate uses of technologyClimate changeYou will present your findings at the next UN General Assembly. Your goal is to provide a brief history of each issue, the number of countries affected, and the effects of this threat on the world population.The completed version of this assignment will include the following:

Florida State University Physical Science Physics Essay
Two mini essays, 350 word minimum response eachEssay 1: The Standard Model of Particles is currently the most basic theory of matter in the universe that has been experimentally verified (to some degree). It not only describes all of the sub-sub-atomic particles in existence (and some which used to exist, or should exist), but it provides a model for any interactions between particles an objects by explaining the root causes of forces.For this essay, I want you to choose a particle from the Standard Model and tell its story.Examples:How it is classified? What does it do? What are its basic properties?Has it been discovered, or only theorized? How and when was it discovered? Does it exist naturally, or did it have to be created in a lab?What is it used for? How does it affect the universe?Essay 2: We have discussed how sound is a pressure wave and its pitch depends on the frequency of that wave. We also know that all waves follow the principles of diffraction and interference, and from that interference we can sometimes create resonant wave patterns which are much stronger than the original wave.For this essay, I want you to pick a musical instrument and describe how it works. Note that I dont want to know how to play it, I want to know how it works, how it produces the necessary sound waves.Examples:How does a trumpet produce so many different frequencies with only three buttons?Why do woodwinds have so many buttons/holes, while brass instruments have so few?Why are guitars/violins/cellos shaped the way they are? What is the point of a resophonic guitar and how does it work?What was the first purely electronic musical instrument and how did it work?Why does a snare drum sound different than a tom?
