In 1999, a Seattle man took a popular soft-drink company seriously when one of its commercials made an offer of a Harrier jet, the famous high-tech jump jet used by the U.S. Marines. In a television commercial that aired in 1995, the company jokingly included the Harrier as one of the prizes that could be received with a mere 7 million company points. Although that sounds like a lot of points to get from drinking the soft drink company\’s products (roughly 190 drinks a day for 100 years), the company also allowed customers to purchase points for 10 cents each.The man did the math and discovered that the cost of the 7 million points needed for the jet was $700,000. He then put together a business plan, raised the $700,000 from friends and family, and submitted 15 points, the check, and an official order form with a demand for the Harrier jet.The company wrote back, stating that the Harrier jet in the commercial was simply used to create a humorous and entertaining advertisement. They apologized for any misunderstanding or confusion people may have experienced and enclosed some free product coupons.The free coupons did not satisfy the man, who then took the soft drink company to court. Finally, a federal judge for the Southern District of New York held that the company was only joking when it implied in its ad that it was giving away fighter jets. The judge noted that because the jets sell for approximately $23 million, no one could have concluded that the commercial actually offered consumers a Harrier jet. Instead, this was a classic example of a deal that was too good to be true.Write a paper of that answers the following questions, including an in-depth explanation of the supporting rationale:Your submitted assignment  must include a that contains your answers to the questions listed and a reference list of any sources that you used within your paper

For your Final Paper in this course, you will create an annotated bibliography on a topic within your major field of study. This week, you will begin the research process by defining an information need, selecting a topic, and forming a research quesotion for your Final Paper. Choose an interesting topic from an area related to your major or a career that you would like to explore. For instance, if you are majoring in education, you might select a topic related to Common Core State Standards or adaptive technologies for special education classrooms. If you are studying healthcare administration, you may want to learn more about the Affordable Care Act. These options are only examples meant to guide you. The document contains additional research topics you may wish to choose from.As you will learn after watching the video, (), and from reading Module 1 of your textbook, defining your research topic and gathering sources is a multi-step process. Parts 1 and 2 of this assignment reflect these steps. Watch the video below for more information to help you understand this process. Once you have watched the video, carefully follow the process below. Write down ideas you are considering for your topic and begin organizing them (a process called “brainstorming”). Explore the Wikipedia entry and then create your own. During your brainstorming, use the websites , , or another concept mapping tool of your choice to help organize and connect ideas. Look at the Text 2 Mind Map – . This is an example of a concept map on the topic of vegetarianism, a topic you will see as an example throughout the course. Notice the main topic in the center (i.e., vegetarianism), subtopics surrounding it (health benefits, moral reasons, history, economic and environmental benefits), and issues or subdivisions for each subtopic.When creating your own concept map, critically think about your topic. Ask yourself, for example, what you already know about your topic and what else you would like to learn about it.In your concept mapThroughout the process of creating your map, conduct the background research described in the video () to verify you selected a strong research topic.Once you are finished with your concept map, the mapping tool that you chose to use will allow you to save a link to your map. Include this link with Part 2 of this assignment when submitting it through the online classroom. Now it’s time to form your research question. The question you develop should follow a specific trail: topic, subtopic, issue or problem, and question. Complete the to create your research question and to reflect on the process. Save this document to your computer in an easy-to-find location. To complete the document, develop at least three focused research questions that are open-ended and address an issue or solve a problem. Select one question to use for your Final Paper. Explain the process of doing background research and developing a research question. Save your changes as you go. You can use one of the subtopics and a related issue you identified in Part 1. Conducting background research and creating the concept map in Part 1 will help you significantly with this process. Need help downloading the Creating Your Research Question Worksheet to your computer so that you can complete this assignment? Watch .View the to guide you as you complete this assignment.Once you have completed both Part 1 and Part 2, submit the completed Creating Your Research Question Worksheet through the online classroom Assignment Submission button. Be sure that you have included the link to your concept map in the worksheet before submitting.

The normal male to female live birth sex ratio ranges from about 1.03 to 1.07. The sex ratio is defined as the ratio of male births to female births. You might expect boy and girl births to be equally likely, but in fact, baby boys are somewhat more common than baby girls. Higher sex ratios are thought to reflect prenatal sex selection, especially among cultures where sons are prized more heavily than daughters. We will review sex ratios in the United States as a whole, as well as in individual states, to determine whether sex ratios vary significantly among various ethnic and racial groups. To do this analysis, we will utilize natality data for the United States, provided by the Centers for Disease Control. In the first part of the assignment, we will look at sex ratios for your home state, over the time period 1995 to 2002, by race. To obtain this information: We can now process the downloaded data in Excel.    In the second part of this assignment, you will undertake some formal statistical procedures with the natality data. We will repeat the previous steps, with some slight modifications. We have only four racial groups in this dataset: American Indians or Alaska Natives, Asian or Pacific Islanders, Black or African Americans, and Whites. Using the normal approximation to the binomial distribution (without continuity correction), calculate z statistics for assessing whether the proportion of boys is .51 in each of the 4 racial groups, where n is the total number of births in a particular cohort, = .51, = 1 – = .49, and is the number of boy births; . Under the null hypothesis that the proportion of boys should be 0.51, and under the normal approximation to the binomial distribution, the z statistics should have (approximately) standard normal distributions, (mean 0, standard deviation 1). Do any of the z statistics suggest that the proportion of boy births in any particular racial group differs significantly from .51? Comment on your findings in your written report. Describe whether you think your results would change if we hadn’t limited consideration to the first-born.  Assignment  should be at least 250-500 words in APA format supported by scholarly sources. Carefully review the for the criteria that will be used to evaluate your assignmet

1. The purpose of this paper is for you to demonstrate your ability to apply a working knowledge of the theories, terminology, and concepts of human growth and development. You will discuss your own development over your lifetime and how it relates to the developmental concepts discussed throughout this course. You are to analyze your life as it relates to the keys aspects of human growth and development. What are key developmental times in your life and the influencing factors that led to who you are today? You are to incorporate your empirical studies related to your chosen developmental aspect of your life. Also, use the course readings or presentations to support what you propose about your own development in your paper. Depending on your life and the influences, there may be more attention placed during one period of time. You are encouraged to glean information from your mother about her pregnancy with you to see if there were any notable issues during that time. Remember to include your spiritual development with applicable research. In addition, obtain as much information as you can about any significant events in your early childhood years. How did you do in those key developmental years? Did you approach all developmental milestones with ease, or were there challenges? Since this is a comprehensive paper, you will address your development across your lifespan. Finally, you will conclude your paper with addressing any current lifestyle behaviors that may influence your aging process. You are to address these issues, how they will affect your aging process, and what you plan to do about it. Note: Your conclusion will must offer suggestions for further study. The body of the paper is to be 8–10 pages (excluding the title page, abstract, and reference page). This assignment is to be completed adhering strictly to current APA format.  You must include at least 8–10 peer-reviewed, relevant sources in your paper (at least 7 of the sources must be at least 7articles). The sources must be less than 10 years old unless that citation is linked to an author whose work is seminal to your topic.
