Compare the ‘love marriage’ (what we are likely to expect today) to the more ‘traditional marriage’ of the past.

Judith S. Wallerstein and Sandra Blakeslee end the first paragraph of their essay “The Good Marriage” by stating that “As never before in history, men and women are free to design the kind of marriage they want, with their own rules and expectations” (211). They go on to stress the changes in women’s roles and the heightened expectations of couples, and in effect they anticipate the advent of same sex marriages. So what do they mean? what are implications and/or consequences of their argument? In a research essay of roughly 5-7 pages, compare the ‘love marriage’ (what we are likely to expect today) to the more ‘traditional marriage’ of the past. how has marriage changed? has it? how is it similar? different? Before you start, consider your specific position, which could be as obvious and/or audacious as discussing same sex marriage in relation to the ‘traditional’ practice, or you could discuss the effect of Internet matchmaking sites on marriage. You should consider a variety of examples ranging from the effect of shared responsibility of child-rearing to income equality between spouses. You might even consider an interpretation of our class reading of Romeo and Juliet to reflect upon this conflict. Support your position with specific examples taken from your research. so what do experts say? the social scientists? How does that jibe with your own thinking? MLA CITATIONS AT THE END

Our two-party system tends to draw the voting population toward either the Democratic or Republican party. However, many people refer to themselves as politically Independent when polled.

Take a look at the most recent Gallup poll on Party Affiliation. What keeps Independents from saying that they align with either the Democrats or the Republicans? Or do they really align with one side? Explain your response.

Is the two-party system working? Why or why not?

Scenario: you are a customer service center manager for netflix

Scenario: You are a customer service center manager for Netflix, and you have been tasked with creating a customer satisfaction survey to evaluate customer interactions with call center representatives. Consider the types of calls and the best-practice experiences that you will want to measure.

Part I

Compose a brief survey with 6 survey questions and a rating scale. You may have no more than one open-ended question. For guidance on how to write effective survey questions, search keyword: “Survey Construction” in peer reviewed resources from the West Online Library and read the following article:

Janes, J. (1999) ‘Survey construction’, Library Hi Tech, 17(3).

Part II

Writea two- to three-page paper, typed and double-spaced, in which you discuss the following components:

• What are the survey questions designed to measure and why did you choose to measure these components?
  • What method will be used to analyze survey feedback?
  • How will this survey information be used? What levels of the organization will see the results?
  • What change implementation or initiatives will the survey results drive?
  • What tactics will be used to encourage survey participation?
    • Often, front line teams pushback on the accuracy of survey results measuring their performance. How will you address the challenges associated with survey validity based on response rates and customer tendencies?

Include a minimum of two sources, which may consist of readings from the University Library, your text, and other selections.

• CO 4: Evaluate published nursing research for credibility and clinical significance related to evidence-based practice.

Which of the two models of the criminal justice system do you think is the best way to handle the shooting at the local gym?

Read the two scenarios provided in the OER which give examples of Herbert L. Packers’ models to describe the functioning of the criminal justice system. Also read chapter 1, particularly the sections explaining these two models. Answer the discussion board questions related to this topic.

Comment and critique one other student’s post. Remember to be detailed and specific in your critique. Just agreeing and or saying “good job” is not sufficient for this part of the assignment. It is perfectly fine to disagree with each other as that is part of any discussion but do so respectfully.

Murder in the Gym: Crime Control Model Example by Dr. Sanchez (Chapter 1 – p. 36).

Imagine working out at the local gym, and a man starts shooting people. This man has no mask on so he is easy to identify. People call 911 and police promptly respond and can arrest the shooter within minutes. Under the crime control model, the police should not have to worry too much about how evidence gets collected and expanded. Investigative, arrest, and search powers would be considered necessary. A crime control model would see this as a slam dunk and no need to waste time or money by ensuring due process rights. If there were any legal technicalities, such as warrantless searches of the suspect’s home, it would obstruct the police from effectively controlling crime. Effective use of time would be to immediately punish, especially since the gym had cameras and the man did not attempt to hide his identity. Any risk of violating individual liberties would be considered secondary over the need to protect and ensure the safety of the community in this model. Additionally, the criminal justice system is responsible for ensuring victim’s rights, especially helping provide justice for those murdered at the gym.

The due process model focuses on having a just and fair criminal justice system for all and a system that does not infringe upon constitutional rights. Further, this model would argue that the system should be more like an ‘obstacle course,’ rather than an ‘assembly line.’ The protection of individual rights and freedoms is of utmost importance and has often be aligned more with a liberal perspective.

Murder in the Gym: Due Process Model by Dr. Sanchez (Chapter 1 – p. 37).

Back to the gym murder, the due process model would want to see all the formalized legal practices afforded to this case in order to hold him accountable for the shooting. If this man did not receive fair and equitable treatment, then the fear is this can happen to other cases and offenders. Therefore, due process wants the system to move through all the stages to avoid mistakes and ensure the rights of all suspects and defendants. If the man in the gym pled not guilty due to the reason of insanity, then he can ask for a jury trial to determine whether he is legally insane. The courts would then try the case and may present evidence to a jury, ultimately deciding his fate. The goal is not to be quick, but to be thorough. Because the Bill of Rights protects the defendant’s rights, the criminal justice system should concentrate on those rights over the victim’s rights, which are not listed. Additionally, limiting police power would be seen as positive to prevent oppressing individuals and stepping on rights. The rules, procedures, and guidelines embedded in the Constitution should be the framework of the criminal justice system, and controlling crime would be secondary. Guilt would get established on the facts and if the government legally followed the correct procedures. If the police searched the gym shooter’s home without a warrant and took evidence then that evidence should be inadmissible, even if that means they cannot win the case.

1. Which of the two models of the criminal justice system do you think is the best way to handle the shooting at the local gym? Explain your answer.

2. Based on what you know about mass shootings in the United States, which model do you think is used when mass shooting suspects are captured alive? Give an example of a specific mass shooting case to justify your answer.

3. Discuss what the primary goal of the criminal justice system should be: to control crime, ensure due process, or both?.

4. Is there ever so much evidence against someone who has committed mass murder, that we should forgo the process and just lock the person away based on the obvious facts? Justify your answer either way.
