How are women depicted in popular culture today? The expression “sex sells” can readily be validated by looking in virtually any advertisement or magazine, those geared for either men or women.

  1. Look in five different types of magazines or media to find five images of how a woman is depicted. What is the purpose of the image/ad? How is the woman being depicted? What are the intentions of the figure? And how do you, the viewer, feel towards this woman and/or the intentions of the image/ad? 100-300 words
  2. Then as an extension of this project, choose one image of particular interest. Copy or scan to create a black and white image. Incorporate a contrasting or provocative statement in red, similar to Barbara Kruger’s work Untitled (Your body is a battleground).

Identify the 2 crimes you researched. Describe the sentencing guidelines in TN state for each crime. Compare the sentencing guidelines for adult offenders and juvenile offenders for each crime.

Research examples of sentencing guidelines for 2 specific crimes in TN state and the public policies that influenced these guidelines.

Write a 1,750-word analysis of sentencing guidelines and the related public policies. Address the following in your paper:

  • Identify the 2 crimes you researched.
  • Describe the sentencing guidelines in TN state for each crime.
  • Compare the sentencing guidelines for adult offenders and juvenile offenders for each crime.
  • Compare the sentencing guidelines of TN state to the guidelines of TX state and the guidelines at the federal level for each crime.
  • Describe public policies and trends that influenced the sentencing guidelines in TN state for the crimes you researched.
  • Explain the impetus for the public policies and data that supported the public policies.
  • Propose a change to the sentencing policies in your state for the crimes researched and substantiate your proposal with support from research on the benefits of this change.

Scenario Description

We have reason to believe that the suspect has stolen a sensitive piece of virtual technology from CyberX. This virtual technology belonged to a group of OSINT professionals who worked for CyberX and the suspect was a part of there team. From what we were told this virtual technology was used to replicate a mobile device but that was the extent of what they could share. Your job is to determine if the suspect stole this virtual technology and if so where were you able to find it and what was on the device. Best of luck and lets hope we can find what has been stolen.

RGA 6101 – Therapeutic Product Development Spring 2023 Quarter

Assignment:
Based on the information provided below and discussed in class, prepare a 3 – 4 page report outlining recommendations for preparation and maintenance of an Investigational New Drug (IND) application.

Background Information:
Submission of an initial IND and ongoing IND maintenance, perhaps more so than most activities in drug development, require a high level of teamwork and collaboration. IND preparation is a prime example of how a diverse range of skill sets and expertise is necessary in drug development, as its contents include clinical, nonclinical, manufacturing, and administrative sections.
The IND allows a Sponsor to initiate and conduct clinical studies of investigational drugs in the United States. It allows a pharmaceutical company to negate a federal law set forth in the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, and ship an unapproved drug across state lines for clinical trials. Importantly, the IND should provide FDA the data necessary to decide if a new drug and clinical trial pose a reasonable risk to clinical trial participants. Getafix Pharmaceuticals is a small pharmaceutical company developing a compound it hopes to market someday for treating Alzheimer’s disease. With nonclinical studies completed, planned, and ongoing, GMP–compliant manufacturing underway, and a phase I clinical study protocol drafted, it is planning to submit an initial IND submission to FDA for its lead compound within a year. With limited resources and expertise, the company has requested your help as a Regulatory Affairs Consultant.

Prompt:
Outline operational and strategic considerations Getafix should take into account when preparing to submit its initial IND to the FDA. Within your plan, provide a brief introduction describing the indication and currently available treatment. Indicate whether you would recommend a Pre–IND meeting with FDA, and if so, describe the contents of required meeting material and potential goals of the meeting. Describe documentation required for initial IND submission and ensure Getafix understands the necessity of IND maintenance throughout drug development. Justify your recommendations by referencing applicable regulations from 21 CFR and advice from FDA Guidances and ICH Guidelines.

As the course proceeds, reflect on how what you learn in each class could be incorporated into a strategic regulatory plan that helps to guide a pharmaceutical company through various aspects of the drug development process.

Closing Lecture Remarks

Understanding capitalism’s influence over our everyday lives and not just the historical past is a lifelong endeavor most of us may be discouraged to undertake. Even so, this does not limit the role and impact of capitalism over our lives, decision-making, and prospects about what comes next for us as individuals, households, nation, and the world.

So much of our own circumstances are engrained in class differences produced by capitalism and it’s initial primitive accumulation through colonization and imperialism. In fact, who is eligible for citizenship and the path for each is different depending on your economic class under capitalism. For example, a Mexican millionaire can automatically qualify for U.S. citizenship when they make a million-dollar investment in the U.S. Meanwhile, a Mexican citizen may work all their adult lives in the U.S. paying taxes and contributing to their local community but be denied citizenship for crossing the border without proper documents.

Takaki casts Mexicans in A Different Mirror as immigrants, but that is not entirely true. Immigrants come from Asia, Europe, and Middle East. The indigenous populations of North America can hardly be described as immigrants. The notion of nations, however, turns many indigenous tribes and people who are natives into “immigrants” equatable to Europeans who came on ships. This example of who is assigned as an immigrant is another example of hegemony and its tremendous influence in the way we interpret knowledge and language to reproduce social relations that maintain elite rule and dominance.

Now is your opportunity to demonstrate your ability to utilize course concepts and incorporate case studies in producing knowledge through cultural criticism in writing.
