Evaluate the criminal justice systems by examining the global criminal activity in the two countries you chose.
Comparative Justice Systemsyou will focus on examining global criminal activity by creating a comparative justice systems classification strategy. The activities completed throughout the course have provided you with knowledge of the various types of laws, criminal justice systems, and criminal activities that occur across the world. Additionally, you have learned about the cultures and processes of the courts, policing and investigative agencies, and corrections in countries worldwide. You will compare, contrast, examine, and classify each countrys criminal justice system, including key cultures and processes in policing, corrections, investigative agencies, and the courts. You will also make recommendations for improvements to these systems within the United States based on what has proven successful for other countries. You will evaluate the global criminal activity and criminal justice systems in each country; analyze the differing cultural perspectives on policing, courts, and corrections in each country; evaluate the international policing and investigative agencies; and, lastly, compile all of this information by creating a comparative justice classification strategy.First, select two countries from this list:ArgentinaAustraliaBrazilCanadaChinaEngland and WalesFinlandFranceGermanyGhanaGreat BritainIndiaItalyJapanMexicoNew ZealandNigeriaNorth KoreaNorwayPolandPortugalRussiaSaudi ArabiaScotlandSomaliaSouth AfricaSouth KoreaSpainSwedenVenezuelaVietnamThen, compare and contrast the court system, policing, corrections, and investigative agencies in these countries with those of the United States. This should be accomplished by creating a table in landscape format using either Microsoft Word or Microsoft Excel. Column headings should include courts, policing/law enforcement, corrections, and investigative agencies. Remember to include your cited resources in correct APA format whether in the table or written portion of the assignment.In the writing portion, create your assignment based on the information you reviewed when comparing and contrasting the United States with the two countries you chose. In your paperProvide at least one recommendation for improvement to the United States criminal justice system for each of the following:Court systemPolicingCorrectionsInvestigative agenciesProvide a rationale, with supporting resources, for the reasons you are recommending these changes to the United States criminal justice system.Evaluate the criminal justice systems by examining the global criminal activity in the two countries you chose.Analyze the differing cultural perspectives on policing, courts, and corrections of your chosen countries.Evaluate international policing and investigative agencies while creating this comparative justice classification strategy.The projectMust be at least 10 double-spaced pages in length (not including title and references pages) and formatted according to APA style as outlined in the Writing CenterMust include a separate title page with the following:Title of paperStudents nameCourse name and numberInstructors nameDate submittedMust use at least nine credible sources in addition to the course text.

Using a graphical approach discussed in the course, determine whether or not the assumption of normality appears to be valid. Show your graph and explain your answer
Most air travelers now use e-tickets. Electronic ticketing allows passengers to not worry about a paper ticket, and it costs the airline companies less to handle than paper ticketing. However, in recent times, the airlines have received complaints from passengers regarding their e-tickets, particularly when connecting flights and a change of airlines were involved. To investigate the problem an independent watchdog agency contacted a random sample of 20 airports and collected information on the number of complaints the airport had with e-tickets during the month of March. The information is shown in the table below.14 14 16 12 12 14 13 16 15 1412 15 15 14 13 13 12 13 10 13a. Assuming that the data are approximately normally distributed, is there sufficient evidence for the watchdog agency to conclude that the mean number of complaints per airport is less than 15 per month? Use a .05 level of significance.Complete the following:1. State H0. 2. State H1. 3. State the value of ?. 4. State the value of the test statistic. 5. State the p-value.6. State the decision in terms of H0 and why. 7. State the decision in terms of the problem.b. Is the normality assumption in part a necessary? Explain your answer.c.

Explain the impact of the guerrillas actions on the individuals involved, the organization, and public policy. Finally, explain whether you agree or disagree with their actions and why.
Discussion: Guerrilla Government and Waldos Map of Ethical Obligations of a Public ServantIn what context should you view guerrilla government activities? The literature points to three lenses through which you can view such activities: the bureaucratic politics lens, the organization and management lens, and the ethics lens. The ethics lens is the most challenging because of the subjective influences that affect how individuals identify ethical behavior. Who determines ethical behavior and how do these individuals compel others to adhere to it? One way to identify whether a behavior is ethical is to consider if it violates your professional obligation as a public administrator. Waldos Map of Ethical Obligations accomplishes just that.For this Discussion, review Chapters 1 and 2 in OLeary (2014). Specifically, focus on the individuals competing obligations and the ethical approach used by the Nevada Four guerrillas in the Nevada Wetlands case study. Familiarize yourself with Waldos map of ethical obligations of a public servant. (See Attachment)Post an explanation of the Nevada Four guerrillas competing obligations using Waldos map of ethical obligations of a public servant. Explain the impact of the guerrillas actions on the individuals involved, the organization, and public policy. Finally, explain whether you agree or disagree with their actions and why.Support your postings and responses with specific references to the resources.

Think about a population proportion that you may be interested in and propose a confidence interval problem for this parameter.
For your initial post, choose one of the following two prompts to respond to. Then in your two follow up posts, respond at least once in each option.Write a confidence interval problem using one of the options below. For whichever option you choose, gather the appropriate data and post your problem (without a solution) in the discussion topic. Allow time for your classmates to post their solutions, and then respond to your own post with the solution for others to check their work.Option 1:Think about a population mean that you may be interested in and propose a confidence interval problem for this parameter. Your data values should be approximately normal.For example, you may want to estimate the population mean number of times that adults go out for dinner each week. Your data could be that you spoke with seven people you know and found that they went out 2, 0, 1, 5, 0, 2, and 3 times last week. You then would choose to calculate a 95% (or another level) confidence interval for the population mean.Assume a random sample was chosen, which is required to determine a confidence interval.Option 2:Think about a population proportion that you may be interested in and propose a confidence interval problem for this parameter.For example, you may like to estimate the population proportion of adults in the US who own SUVs. The data could be that you researched online by looking at a local dealership to find that 142 of the 432 vehicles sold are SUVs. You want to calculate a 90% (or another level) confidence interval for the population proportion. Assume a random sample.RESPONSEFor your response to a classmate (two responses are required, one in EACH option), solve a classmates confidence interval problem using a confidence level not previously used for that specific classmates problem. Make sure that you use appropriate terminology to state the problem and explain your solution.
