/in /by adminI’m working on a business law discussion question and need an explanation and answer to help me learn.
The Case of the Director Who Wore Too Many HatsTatiana is one of 5 directors of Beta Investments Corporation. She is also a majority shareholder holding both common and preferred stock. Her stock with voting rights amounts to 47% of all stock issued with voting rights. Tatiana buys, for $1,500, an option to purchase a tract of real estate called Blackacre, which is next to Beta’s home office, for $50,000. Tatiana forms a new corporation, Commercial Property, Inc., to hold the option. She then has Commercial Property buy Blackacre. As a director of Beta, Tatiana orders Beta to authorize its real estate agent to negotiate the purchase of the land from Commercial Property for $100,000. After a successful negotiation for the purchase of Blackacre for $100,000, Tatiana has Commercial Property sell it to Beta, and loan the money to Beta for the purchase price at a 5% interest rate which is 2% below the market rate. Lakesha, a minority shareholder in Beta, formally complains to Beta’s board which takes no action. The TrialLakesha files a suit against Tatiana on Beta’s behalf seeking to cancel the sale. Tatiana asks the Court to dismiss the lawsuit as Lakesha has no standing to bring the lawsuit.Arguments At TrialMaria’s attorney argues that Blackacre is necessary for Beta as it will allow them to expand their offices and production plant thus increasing the net worth and potential profits to the shareholders. Further, the Board of Directors of Beta authorized the purchase which appeared to be in accordance with the Articles of Incorporation.Lakesha’s attorney argues that the purchase of Blackacre should have been put to a vote of the shareholders of Beta as required by Beta’s Bylaws. Beta’s Board of Directors failed in its duty to make sure this sale was in the corporation’s best interest.Questions to DecideWhat kind of suit will Lakesha file and what is its basis?Who are the Plaintiffs and who are the Defendants? Why?What are the defenses, if any, of Beta or Maria?Who will win the case and why?

/in /by adminChoose any film screened in class (  The Grand Illusion , Rules of the Game , (Jean Renoir, 1939), His Girl Friday ,  The Public Enemy, Queen Christina , Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, Midnight Ramble(Cram/Bowser, 1994) , Rebirth of a Nation  (DJ Spooky, 2007), The Jazz Singer (Alan Crosland, 1927) ) Compare this film with an appropriate contemporary film or television episode of your choice (1990s-present).
The basis, or starting point, of your comparison should revolve around similar plot, characters, genre, or themes between the two films. Â You should explain these similarities in your introduction.
But the most important dimension of your paper is historical context and significance. Â Explain in your introduction the historical importance of the film from class; then, throughout your comparison with the contemporary film/episode, emphasize this historical significance. Â Clarify in each section of your paper the important qualities of the historical class film, and how they are similar to, and/or different from, the contemporary film/episode. Â Use specific details from both films to develop each section of your paper. Â In your conclusion, suggest what you think the historical significance of the contemporary film/episode is (or will be), as well as your own personal evaluation of both films.
Thus, the basic structure of your essay should be something like:
Introduction:
a) historical significance of film from class;
b) “starting point†similarities – why you are comparing the two films;
c) thesis: state your argument or “angle†about the two films; your thesis should also suggest the sections of the paper.
Describe the plot and characters of both films (one brief paragraph for each film)
Compare historical context and themes (similar/different) in two scenes (one from each film)
Compare each film’s style
Conclusion:
a) evaluation of both films (strengths and weaknesses)
b) historical significance of contemporary film/episode: what does the contemporary film reflect about society? Does it possess any new or unique stylistic techniques? Â How does it fit into the current film and media scene?

/in /by adminSoftware-defined networking (SDN) and intent-based networking (IBN) offer an ability to revolutionize the modern network architecture. Both concepts are relatively new, and your chief technology officer (CTO) has only heard them in passing. In fact, she pawned them off as the new “marketing fad†dressed up as a new concept. Since you have researched both technologies, you understand this is not a fad. When used in combination with virtualization and cloud computing, you know SDN and IBN could revolutionize how the organization operates, providing for reduced costs, efficiency, better management of the network assets, and security. However, you need to develop a white paper for the Caduceus CTO to highlight these benefits. Given the CTO has only heard the term in passing, you must describe in this white paper, the SDN and IBN concepts, their benefits, and what it would take for the organization to implement.Forming Your Teams In addition to submitting your individual white paper here in the SDN and IBN Assignment, you will also begin to work with your team for the upcoming collaborative projects. You should meet your team, brainstorm ideas for your white paper together, and begin planning your upcoming work.Writing Your PaperAfter you introduce yourself to your team and brainstorm ideas for this assignment, refer to the company highlights document for more details about Caduceus.In your white paper, use additional sources of information but also describe the concept in layman’s terms. Use visuals where appropriate. Describe how an SDN/IBN architecture would look different than network architectures we have traditionally deployed. Compare and contrast the network architectures and discuss the pros and cons of each. The paper should include the following sections:introduction to software-defined networking (SDN) (discussed in Week 3)introduction to intent-based networking (IBN) (discussed in Week 4)discussion on how virtualizing the desktop and now back-end infrastructure are complementary and related discussion of how SDN and IBN are relatedDownload the SDN and IBN Assignment template to get started.

Follow the example below. EXAMPLE:In my example, I used Urban’s and Grant’s sources. This is an explanation of what I did in each column and what you need to do for each part of the process:In the first column, I provide the MLA-style citation of the source (you can use it later to create your Works Cited page), I included a hyperlink to the source.In the second column, I copied and pasted a paragraph or a group of sentences with the phrase or a sentence that I use late on to paraphrase. I did not change anything from the original text. In the third column, I paraphrased, summarized, and used a direct quote from the original text. I also added my own words to introduce the author (name), explained the main point, used a direct quote, which I placed in quotation marks, and included the place where this quote is found in the original (minutes in the video, paragraphs in the webpage, or pages in the journal article).If you change your mind about using the quote later in the final paper, it’s okay; you can use a different one. If you are going to add more sources later, it’s okay too – you only need to show me 2 of them at this time. For this particular graded exercise, I want to see how well you understood the MLA style of in-text citations, and how to paraphrase/summarize a direct quote.

Summary: A summary (in your own words) of the author’s main points (3-5 points) should be included in the introduction. Summarize the topic of the chapter and explain the primary ideas as well as how the author supports those ideas in your own words (evidence, sources, examples). 2. Evaluation: An overall evaluation of the chapter is required. Whether you love the chapter or agree with everything the author has to say is inconsequential. In thinking about your evaluation consider: What was most interesting about the chapter and why? What did you learn about this topic? How did the chapter change/alter/impact any previous ideas you might have had about the topic? What additional real-life connections can you make with the main points from the chapter to the workplace or other technical communication environments? Did the author cover the topic as well as you expected? Was the information organized in a way flowed and was easy to understand or was it unorganized, dense, and filled with too much jargon making it hard to understand? What questions about the topic did the chapter not answer? Avoid writing one sentence responses such as, “I liked/did not like the chapter†or “I learned a lot from the chapter†or simply stating that the chapter was “goodâ€, “badâ€, and/or that the author “did a great/poor job.†These types of responses will not suffice. Be able to support your evaluation with specific concrete examples. 3. Conclusion: A short conclusion which links your summary and evaluation will end your review. Ideally the conclusion should reemphasize the main points and leave the reader with something to reflect on. For example, did the author accomplish his/her purpose? Would you recommend this chapter to another student who is beginning his or her technical writing journey?
