Case A: Defendant Smith, Possession of Ecstasy
Defendant Smith has been arrested for possession of Ecstasy—enough for two hits. Smith has no criminal history and has been employed as a laborer with a construction company for two years, excluding a brief layoff period. He has a good work record. He admits that he uses alcohol and had been drinking and using Ecstasy the night of the offense.Smith has used marijuana and cocaine in the past. He lives by himself. He has never been married and has one child from a previous relationship. He is two months behind on his child-support payments and does not see his child very often. His attorney argues that Smith has never been in any form of mental health counseling, substance-abuse treatment, or counseling, and that he would agree to go to drug court as a diversionary measure. The State’s attorney is opposed to drug court because Ecstasy was the choice of drug. The police have recently been trying to rid the streets of the supply of Ecstasy and believe Smith might be tied to a major Ecstasy drug ring.

Week 1 Case Study
Using current literature, complete “Case 17-10, ABC Retailers-Internal Controls” that is attached. Here are the specific questions that need to be answered:
Required:
1. What are the key considerations when evaluating the severity of a deficiency in a control that directly addresses a risk of material misstatement?
2. Does the Assistant Controller’s failure to adequately review the Vendor Change Form represent a deficiency in the design or operating effectiveness of the control?
3. Is the failure in the vendor request change form control indicative of a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting?
4. Would the deficiency warrant disclosure in the Company’s Form 10-K, Item 9A? If so, what information would the Company be expected to disclose?
5. What implications does the deficiency have on other direct or indirect controls
6. What are the ethical issues that need to be considered? (this question is in addition to the ones at the end of the case)
Research two sets of worker-diversity demographics that are viewed as different. A single set comprises two demographic categories. Thus, you are finding four demographic categories total. Here are examples of possible sets:
Baby Boomers versus Millennials (this counts as ONE set);
male versus female;
Bachelor’s degree-prepared workers versus high-school graduates;
or
African Americans versus Hispanic Americans.
In your own words, explain the primary differences between each set. For example, what are the primary differences between Baby Boomers and Millennials?
Propose at least two methods of how knowledge can be shared (i.e., bridge the gap) between the sets of demographic groups to benefit the organization. For example, this may include mentoring/reverse mentoring between Baby Boomers and Millennials, job shadowing, cross-functional focus groups, etc.
Explain how you would structure your knowledge-sharing methods and what organizational outcomes you would target with these methods (i.e., technology use/speed, succession planning, improved organizational culture, etc.).
Explain how criteria for participation (i.e., voluntary, assigned, etc.) in these methods should be determined.
Identify potential pitfalls associated with your knowledge sharing methods.

Part 1:
You are about to set up your own business (all specifications can be made up as per your preference), which will operate in the international arena. In this regard, you need to design a proper communication system to run the organisation smoothly and enable it to achieve its goals. In view of this, critically analyse and address the following points with regards to building an effective communication system for the work environment in the organization:
1. Determine which managerial approach would be the best fit in enabling the organisation to meet its goals for effective communication.
2. Design a feedback action plan for delivering constructive feedback associated with a non-routine change to your employees. Provide a specific example of such a change.
3. Evaluate and assess the effectiveness of the channels used in the communication of this change.
4. Discuss two important ethical principles that the organisation considers to be important components of the organisational culture.
5. Highlight the most challenging stage of reactions that employees go through when confronted with the above-mentioned change, and provide a rational explanation, as a communication manager, to convince them to accept the change.
Part 2:
Submit a reflective paper of 500-700 words, analysing the major challenges with regards to the communication strategy encountered as a manager in assignment 1.
a) What was the most challenging step you took as the communication manager?
b) What was the least challenging step you took as the communication manager?
c) What should be the priority of managers when designing an effective communication system and why?
For part 2 use credible sources (at least 2 publications) to support your ideas!
Basic Chemistry
Your prompt is:
The start of life is on Earth is a complex subject, full of disagreements and controversy. The most commonly accepted theory is that certain molecules became linked together in ancient oceans, creating the building blocks of life. Explain how molecules and atoms may become linked to each other. Your answer should include ionic bonding, cations, anions, covalent bonding, protons, electrons, hydrogen bonding, and electronegativity. Further, water can become acidic or basic depending on the solutes place in it. Most organisms are primarily composed of water. How, exactly, would altering the pH in a solution affect a living organism and how do organisms prevent large pH fluctuations? Your answer should include hydrogen ions, hydroxide ions, pH, weak acids, strong acids, and buffers.
(Please also use your own words too)
At least one in text citations is provided per paragraph in APA format (Author Last Name, Year) immediately after the first reference is made.
1. In a paragraph describe the mass and charge of electrons, protons, and neutrons. Provide an example.
2. Describe the contents of the nucleus, including its charge. Also, describe the electron cloud including how to determine orbital levels and what they are in a paragraph. The charge of the electron cloud should be noted. Use an example to illustrate the point.
3. A paragraph to define covalent bonding, electronegativity, and the octet rule. Describe how differences in electronegativity between two atoms in a molecule can result in polar covalent bonding. Polar covalent bonding should also be defined. Then an example to illustrate one or more of these concepts.
4. Define an ion, a cation, and an anion. Then describe the relationship between cations and anions. Also, define ionic bonding. Then provide an example of ionic bonding.
5. Describe the chemical structure of water, including how it is polar covalent and how it can form Hydrogen bonds with other water molecules. Define Hydron bonding. At least 4 properties of water should be described. Examples should be given of the 4 properties of water described.
6. Acids and bases should be defined in relationship to Hydrogen ions. The pH scale should be discussed and please describe how to convert the Hydrogen ion concentration in moles to pH. Weak acids/bases should be defined as are strong acids/bases. Examples of strong and weak acids and bases should be provided.
7. Buffers need to be defined in their relationship to Hydrogen and Hydroxide ions. The function of buffers in the cell needs to be described, indicating why they are important. An example of a buffered reaction too.

Not Wanted on the Voyage SCRIPT
Please take a look at the files attached to this order. No citations are needed. No need to do the recording part, your only job is to produce the SCRIPT for me to read out loud for recording as outlined in the files attached. You may need to do some reading on the book, Not Wanted on the Voyage by Timothy Findley. I need quality work. I mean QUALITY and only QUALITY. Finally, I will be reading this out loud to the class AND recording this for the teacher, so keep that in mind and stage your work appropriately for that setting, if you will.
