Dale and Mike Parak were twin brothers and best friends. They spent their entire lives looking out for each other’s interests. While growing up, the two were inseparable. They played sports together, double-dated frequently, and attended the same university. They grew closer as they aged, they got married at about the same time, and eventually, both were divorced. After they retired from their jobs, they decided to live together to save money, and they still enjoyed each other’s company. When he was 70 years old, Mike was diagnosed with cancer. Doctors predicted that he had about 6 months to live. The brothers agreed that Mike should not suffer. Mike and Dale wrote and signed a note stating that they decided to commit suicide. Dale broke 20 tranquilizers into Mike’s evening meal and watched as he ate it. Yet, when Dale checked on Mike one hour later, Mike was still alive. Dale panicked. He took a .38-caliber revolver from his desk and shot Mike, killing him instantly. Dale then went into the kitchen and took a handful of tranquilizers. He did not die. He awoke the next morning as somebody pounded on the front door. It was a neighbor who, seeing that Dale was dazed and confused, decided to call an ambulance and the police. The responding police officer conducted an investigation, and Dale was arrested and charged with the premeditated, 1st-degree murder of Mike. The prosecutor, although noting it to be a difficult case, pursued the case because she thought that no citizen had the right to decide when someone should die. Dale Parak pled guilty to 1st-degree manslaughter and was sentenced to 5 years in a maximum-security prison. (Note: This was the lowest sentence that could be given to a defendant convicted of his crime.) •What is your personal definition of “justice”? What is the formal definition of “justice”? Do you believe that “justice” was served in this scenario? •What is the state definition of the charge that you would file as the prosecutor against Dale? Did Dale commit each of the components and elements of the crime? The elements for 1st-degree, premeditated murder are 1) the unlawful killing; 2) with malice aforethought; 3) of another human being. Explain how each element was or was not committed. •According to the definition of justice you provided, was this sentence just? Why or why not? •If you were the prosecutor in this case, would you have charged Dale Parak with any crime? With 1st-degree murder? Why? •If you were the judge in this case, how would you have sentenced Dale Parak? Why? Please make sure that you provide academic or real-life samples in criminal justice to support your opinions.

The idea that “correlation does not imply causation” is arguably one of the most important ideas to understand in an applied statistics course. This idea applies to any statistical study, not just explicitly “correlational” studies, including ANOVAs and t-tests.

One example that illustrates this issue is the following finding: There is a positive correlation between the number of murders and the number of churches in a given city. Although it is possible that the presence of churches drives people into a religious frenzy and increased the number of murders, the most plausible explanation for this is the following confound: population size. That is, the higher the population size, the higher the number of murders and the higher the number of churches.

Another example (using a “t-test-like” design): There is a higher incidence of suicidal behavior among people who see psychotherapists than among those who don’t. Rather than conclude that seeing a therapist makes you more likely to want to kill yourself, it seems more plausible that people who are depressed or otherwise mentally ill (“the confound”) are more likely to both see a therapist and engage in suicidal behavior.

Recall that one way of improving our ability to make a causal inference (by ruling out confounds) is to randomly assign experimental units to the treatment conditions, rather than merely measuring/recording the “conditions” or “groups.”

For the following paper, address the following prompts:

1) (a) Give another example of a study (hypothetical or real) in which there is no random assignment and a “spurious correlation” like the above examples (in either a correlation/regression or t-test/ANOVA study), and (b) name and explain why the confound better accounts for the association/difference.

2) (a) Give an example of a real study/topic/relationship in which there has been no random assignment (because of ethical or practical reasons), yet there is general consensus that there is a causal relationship, and (b) explain why we are generally confident in there being a causal relationship.

Finally, 3) (a) Give an example of a study (hypothetical or real) in which there is random assignment, yet a causal inference would still be misleading, and (b) say why inferring causation would be misleading in this case.

Here is my little tutorial on how to write a
movie review- – –

1)Basic plot, outline the characters and storyline as a form of the introduction.
2)Talk about the characters, personification, interaction and development throughout the film.
3)Discuss the good and bad points of the film:
A)camera work, effects, angle
B)acting good and bad
C)introduction and ending of the film – – – was it creative? Imaginative?
D)violence, sex, language: – – – needed? Wanted? or unnecessary?

A.Actively watch the movie – – – Yes, recognize that movie watching is a passive activity. Watching a movie isnt something you do, it is something that happens to you. However, if you want to write a good review you have to learn to look at movies with a critical eye. This means you need to pay attention to everything, and I mean EVERYTHING. Notice how the actors are placed in each shot, the setting, the camera angles and the music. All of these elements play a role in the story.
B.Take NOTES – – – but remember Summarize – – -this is important……Think about those papers you have to write for a college lit class. The professor didnt want you to just tell him what the book was about but wanted you to break down the themes in the book and how they related to the plot, the characters, etc. Well the same is true for a movie review. A good movie review will examine the themes or ideas the movie raises . . . talk about how well or not so well the movie executed those themes and ideas.
C.Point out the pros and cons – – -No movie is perfect and rarely is any movie all bad, so take the time to talk about what the movie does well and what it does not so well. Dont be afraid to state your opinion. Have a balance of serious analysis and humor. Deadly serious reviews can be quite stagnant, whereas reviews that continually focus on humor come off as amateur and un-analytic.
D.Finally go on-line and punch in the question, How true is the film, .and put the title of your film in . . . See what is said about.what is true and what is pure fiction.

Films for Review: These are just a very fewthere are hundreds to choose from . . . do a little research.
If you know a film that should be on this list – – – e-mail me with your suggestion . . . give me a detailed synopsis of the film.
The Pacific series

Post a thorough response to the questions.
In mathematical modeling, inverse proportionality (http://mathworld.wolfram.com/InverselyProportional.html) plays an important role. Remember that direct and inverse proportionality (http://deltamonk.hubpages.com/hub/Direct-vs-Inverse-Proportionality) are related but different. In direct proportionality, as one item increases, the corresponding item would also increase, and vice versa; and in an inverse proportionality, as one item increases, the corresponding item would decrease, and vice versa. This video explains both direct and indirect proportionality https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=92U67CUy9Gc

Many people find that time seems to pass more quickly as you get older. So, the older you are, the shorter a year seems. Let’s model this experience mathematically. Let’s theorize that your perception of a length of time is inversely proportional to your age. We will investigate together and determine as a group if we think this is a good model of the true experience.

Let’s use ptime as the variable for your perception of a length of time, and use age as the variable for your age.

1. Our theory is that your perception of a length of time is inversely proportional to your age. Using the variables above, how would you state the theory in a mathematical equation?

2. Using this theory, how long will a year seem when you are two times older than you are now? To investigate, let ptime1 be how long a year seems now, and let ptime2 be how long a year will seem when you are twice as old. Pick a number for ptime1 (maybe a year feels like 157 days to you, for instance), and then calculate ptime2. Pick a number for ptime1 that is different from other students.

3. Compare your ptime1 and ptime2. What is the relationship between them? Would this relationship change depending on how old you are now? Take a look at other student answers. Do you see a pattern? Can you prove that pattern mathematically?
4. Let’s say that ptime1 is how long a year seemed when you were one year old. Let’s say ptime1 = 365 “time units.” Using age as our x variable and ptime as our y variable, use an online graphing tool (http://my.hrw.com/math06_07/nsmedia/tools/Graph_Calculator/graphCalc.html) to graph our theoretical mathematical model of how your perception of time changes over the course of your life.

5. Use “Settings” within the graphing tool to create a window that covers a typical human lifespan (for age) and a reasonable span of “time units” (for ptime). Attach a screen shot of your graph with your post. (You can use your Print Screen key to capture a screen shot and paste it into a Word Document).

6. Do you think our theory is an accurate model of what you experienced over the course of your lifetime so far? If so, why? If not, why not?

Human Growth & Development Writing Assignment

Assignment Overview
The purpose of this assignment is to give students an idea about how research can improve understanding of human development. You are to choose a controversial topic in developmental psychology (if you are not sure ask your instructor). You are then going to read a scholarly journal article related to the controversial topic and then summarize what you read so that virtually anyone can understand it. You may take one side or compare the pros and cons.
BE SURE THAT YOU BASE YOUR PAPER ON AN ARTICLE FROM A SCHOLARLY JOURNAL. (Your instructor will explain how to find scholarly journals). The article you choose must not be more than 5 years old. Be sure to include a copy of the article when you submit your paper to your professor.

IMPORTANT:
Try to avoid sharing personal experiences and/or personal opinions. This paper is a scientific review of the article. Your job is to read it and simplify the results so that the average person could understand it.
Paraphrase. DO NOT use quotes.
Please be careful not to plagiarize. To receive credit for this paper, you must explain the article in your own words.

FORMAT GUIDELINES:
The paper should be 3-5 pages in length and should be typed.
The entire paper should be double-spaced with 12-point font size.
All margins should be one inch.
Place your name, class, and date in the upper left-hand corner of the first page of your paper.

Reference Page
You need a complete reference for the article that you reviewed. Be sure that your reference is in the most current APA style. (Your instructor will cover this style, or you can go to http://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/ and visit the Research and Citation section.)

You will probably have only one reference on your reference page. The reference page should be on a separate page. The following APA format should be used for your reference page:

References

Giancola, P. R., & Tarter, R. E. (1999). Executive cognitive functioning and risk for substance abuse. Psychological Science, 10, 203-205. doi: 10.1037/0021-9010.76.1.143

Explanation of APA reference above: Note that the APA format includes the last name and the first initials of all the authors. Then provide in parentheses the year of publication. Next provide the title of the article, with ONLY the first word of the title capitalized. Next list the title of the journal that the article came from. Be sure to capitalize the journal and put it in italics. Then include the volume number of the journal and put that in italics. Finally, list the pages of the article (not italicized) and the DOI if there is one. Make sure you put the periods and commas in the same exact format that you see in the example above.

 here is the professor’s instructions for the project : For the final project I wanted to give you the basic “bare minimum” parameters. 1) Create custom modeled 3D buildings/structures with textures for your village/outpost or whatever theme you are working on. It doesn’t have to be fully detailed but I also do not want just a cube with basic texturing. (3d max) 2) A working door and other elements that animate, using Playmaker. You can duplicate the same doors as many times as you need unless you have more than one type of door. 3) Custom landscape with textures that your buildings/structures rests upon. 4) Use a skybox and direct light for the outdoors. Don’t forget about the “shadow” button to turn on the shadows. 5) Light the interior of the buildings/structures with point lights. 6) Bake your lights for proper shadows. 7) Use the supplied tree and grass assets as well if needed. You can also create your own like rocks and do have permission to use pre-build 3D items if needed. 8) Utilize the particle system, ie., snow, dust, etc. It doesn’t have to be in your whole scene unless you decide. 9) Your scene must contain mostly custom assets of your creation. If you have pre-created, this is ok. As long as the majority of your scene is mostly your creation(s). 10) Anything above and beyond will not go unrecognized and result in a higher grade. I am looking for quality of your textures, creativity and modeling. I know many of you are not Digital Arts majors and have never touched this kind of software, but it should be doable to make a nice looking level walkthrough. 11) I am not asking for any audio, but you can add audio if you want to give it a try.     For any other questions, please email me  or text me ——————————————————————————————————————————-the theme for my project is still undecided but im confused between (lonely island) or (sci-fi).I need really proffessional and creative work on it since its wieghted %100 on my grade for the class. we are using (3d max) and (unity) in this class
