Winning the lottery has, in modern America, been associated with winning a huge sum of cash after getting the right combination of numbers. In the case of Jackson’s The Lottery however, ...

Now, the utilization of computer networks has proven particularly advantageous by turning the world into a global village and aiding its ...

Introduction

Racial profiling is the targeting of a particular race for a particular crime. The practice was rampant from the time before the Civil War. African-Americans frisked by police from the street irrespective of their status (free or enslaved) were a common practice. The punishments for criminals differed as per color of the skin until the end of the crack cocaine period. The practice is unwelcome with minority communities since it often results in unfair treatment. An African-American or Hispanic origin civilian has higher chances of police questioning him compared to a Caucasian. In addition, the post-9/11 era comprises of ...

There are different Software Development Life Cycle models such as build and fix models, waterfall model, V-model, Prototyping, incremental model, spiral model, Rapid application development model, and agile model. All these models deal with the following phases: 1) Requirements gathering, 2) Design, 3) Development, 4) Testing/Validation, and 5) Implementation/release/maintenance. Some of the SSDLCs that have been proposed include MS Security Development Lifecycle (MS SDL), NIST 800-64, OWASP CLASP (Comprehensive, Lightweight Application Security Process), and Cigital’s Security Touchpoints. The traditional SDLC model has security testing in the testing phase, which usually results in too many issues detected too late. ...

Since September 11, there has been a proliferation of programs to fight terrorism, accompanied by a tremendous increase in the resources allocated for the same purpose.

It is only recently that serious attention has been paid to this question (Lum, Kennedy, & Sherley, 2009). The paucity of research in the area is testament to this. Measuring effectiveness of terrorism strategies ...

SPECT

In SPECT, a gamma-emitting radioisotope is administered into the bloodstream of a patient with the help of injection (Boyd, 2014; Hademenos, 1998).

Plausible bigotry in the criminal justice system

Over two decades ago, a bystander recorded Los Angeles police officers brutally beating an African American man, Rodney King. Members of the African American community had long trumpeted police abuse; with the videotape, these hopefully had enough evidence to crystallize their accusations against the “white-controlled” police force. But at the trial, the jury absolved the four of using inordinate force; the city was engulfed in a riot. Though two of the officers were eventually convicted in Federal court, the case according to African American community leaders shows the extreme difficulty for members of racial minorities to obtain justice ...
