Boston Marathon Bombing / Sacco Vanzetti
There are several poignant similarities existent between the trial of Saaco & Vanzetti, which took place in the early part of the 20th century, and in the bombing of the Boston Marathon and its aftermath, which took place in the early part of the 21st century. Both events involved immigrants. During the epoch in which both events occurred, there was a social climate in the United States in which the respective immigration groups involved in both of these two events was feared. Additionally, there were significant political occurrences taking place during each respective event that both justified and magnified the aforementioned fears. Finally, each of these events resulted in death and a widespread panic (for varying periods of time) across the country. Although there were also some pointed differences existing in these two events -- such as the fact that one of the perpetrators of….

Boston Marathon Bombing
The Boston Marathon is one of the track's most storied events, which was established in 1897. esearch shows that the event typically attracts about 500,000 spectators and requires certain qualifying times for athletes to compete. On April 15, 2013, at least two improvised explosive devices (IEDS) placed close to the finish lines of the Boston Marathon denoted approximately three hours after the winners completed the course (Berke, 2014). The two explosions placed by Dzhokhar and his brother Tamerlan Tsarnaev denoted within seconds of each other killing three as well as, injuring more than two hundred and fifty people. This paper is therefore a summary of the Boston Marathon Bombing; giving reasons to what led the two brothers to commit these crimes. The paper will also analyze the media in regards to the bombing.

This occurred with religious leaders telling them how the U.S. is root causes of all of their problems. After they returned, the two were angry and wanted to lash out. (Bodden, 2014) (Feifer, 2014)
A major sporting event, was the best way of achieving these objectives. The Boston Marathon was the perfect target. This is because it was open and the security was lax in contrast with others. Second, there were large crowds of spectators and participants. This meant that there would be tremendous amounts of collateral damage. (Bodden, 2014) (Feifer, 2014)

They chose the finish line, as it was the one point with the most publicity it receives and could injure the greatest numbers of people. The plan called for detonating one bomb and then having a second explosion during the rescue. This made first responders and the general public their targets of opportunity. (Bodden, 2014) (Feifer, 2014)

Boston Marathon Terror Attack
Two bombs exploded next to the finish line of the Boston Marathon at about 2.50PM. The explosions occurred at an interval of 15 seconds. The bombs had been planted 180 yards apart (Fielding et al., 2014). There were an estimated 5600 athletes participating in the race at the time of the explosion. The first explosion took place on 671 Boylston Street which happened to be near the finish line. The second explosion occurred on 755 Boylston Street. This was 180 yards away from the initial explosion site (Fielding et al., 2014; Gates et al., 2014). Multiple injuries have been reported. There were immediate treatment and triage efforts put into motion immediately after the incident occurred. The rescue efforts involved the police, EMS, health personnel and the marathon spectators nearby.

Boston Marathon Bombing
On April 15, 2013 two pressure cookers bombs exploded near the finish line of the Boston Marathon. This resulted in three deaths and it injured 264 people. In the next week, a manhunt and shoot out occurred between the perpetrators (i.e. Dzhokhar and Tamerlan Tsarnaev) and law enforcement. The result is that one them was subsequently killed by the police and the other was critically injured. They were originally from Chechnya and immigrated to the United States when they were teenagers. (Bodden, 2014)

In the aftermath, it was determined that both were motivated by radical Islamic views. Yet, they were not a part of an organized terrorist group. At the same time, each one had trouble integrating into American society and felt like outsiders. The combination of these factors meant, that they turned to extremist elements to find comfort and support. (Bodden, 2014)

To fully understand their motives and what….

Criminal Justice -- Boston Marathon Bombing
"Predatory criminality" is a popular theme that follows the psychological theory of criminality in modern news media and social media. The inherently evil criminal is seen as deviant and separate from society. This entertains the public while absolving them of any guilt and encouraging them to cheer when the heroes defeat the villains. The Boston Marathon Bombings are a good example of the theory of predatory criminality and of the psychological theory of criminality.

Boston Marathon Bombings as Predatory Criminality

"Predatory criminality" involves criminals who are driven by animal urges and cravings, illogical, and essentially evil and who commit violent, dramatic, and irrational crimes (Surette, 2015, p. 60). The media tends to focus on this type of criminality because the public is fascinated by it and because it makes it appear as though this type of crime is due to the individual criminal's deficiencies, absolving society of….

Incident Response to the 2013 Boston Marathon Bombings Although named for its venue, the Boston Marathon is sponsored by a number of different cities in the greater Boston area and is held annually on Patriot’s Day which is the third Monday in April (About the Boston Marathon, 2018). First run as an all-male event in 1897, the Boston Marathon has since become an international event that draws both male and female contestants from around the world with a global audience. On April 15, 2013, two Kyrgyz-American brothers detonated two homemade bombs near the finish line of the Boston Marathon, causing hundreds of casualties – many of them severe and involving the loss of limbs – a well as three fatalities. The purpose of this case study is to provide an analysis of the effectiveness of the incident response to these bombings, including the role of first responders and the law enforcement….

A successful trade dress infringement lawsuit requires that a company have a distinctive trade dress and that the similarity between the trade dress was likely to confuse consumers. Even though AE's catalogue may have been very similar to A&F's, both companies used their trademark and symbols throughout their catalogues, which sold different types of clothing in totally different manners (A&F used sexuality to market its clothing, while AE used the image of family). The difference in clothing type, marketing angle, and the liberal use of marks and symbols meant that there was no risk of consumer confusion; therefore A&F was not entitled to protection under the Lanham Act.

The Use of Technology in the Boston Bombings Investigations

The Boston Marathon bombing incident was an act of terror that took place on April 15th, 2013 during the annual Boston Marathon. During the event, bombs were positioned in proximity to the race's finish line. The bombs killed two individuals and injured over two hundred fifty others would where close by. Dzhokhar Tsarnaev and Tamerlan Tsarnaev were the primary suspects in the case that were identified by the Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI). A day after the bombings a massive manhunt ensued to find the individuals. However, one of the interesting aspects about the case is how the FBI was able to identify the suspects. An unprecedented amount of digital data was available for use and the FBI and other organizations utilized crowdsourcing techniques to help funnel through the data.

The advent of digital technologies coupled with the falling costs of….

Ritz-Carlton Boston Common Update
The demographics for Ritz-Carlton Hotels, according to CMO Chris Gabaldon, are "multigenerational, multinational and multicultural," and clearly affluent people make up the majority of guests (Palmer, 2011). The Ritz-Carlton 90+ properties do business in 17 languages; of course the Boston Common property is prepared for more than English-speaking guests by having Spanish and French-speaking staff on hand. The average guest at a Ritz-Carlton is 47 years of age, and when Ritz-Carlton coaxes a guest to become "actively engaged" that guest spends 23% more than another guest only "moderately engaged"; hence, Ritz-Carlton's sought-after demographics are for those who are most likely to become actively engaged with the hotel's offerings (workouts, tours, dining). Ritz-Carlton Boston Common, like other Ritz-Carlton hotels, is targeting teenagers, offering special healthy meal menus, massages and fun scavenger hunts because if teens are happy, their parents will be happy, and will return.

Negotiation
Police Labor Conflict in Boston: Summer 2004

This report aims to discuss a recent negotiation that occurred in the city of Boston in June of 2004. As the 2004 election comes to a close and as of this writing we still have no official winner for the office of President of the United States. The Democratic Party is patiently awaiting the results of the vote from the state of Ohio. But that is not the only issues the Democrats faced in this will campaign for President. In May and June of 2004, the Democratic National Convention slated for a rousing Boston welcome was instead greeted by the Boston Police Union's bid for a major strike that targeted Boston's Fleet Center where the Democratic National Convention was to be held. The strike was a thorn in Mayor Thomas M. Menino's side as he tried to present Boston as a labor friendly city….

April 15, 2013 is Patriots' Day in Massachusetts, and a particularly notable day in Boston because of the running of the marathon. Local news coverage in the morning consisted of pre-race interviews with runners and spectators. By mid-afternoon, tragically, the focus had shifted from the elite athletes and their sport to the explosions that killed two and injured many others. The explosions occurred before millions of people, both those at the scene and those watching on television in the Boston area, where the entire event is covered live.

Reporters spoke rapidly in excited voices. There were reporters at the scene and in the studio. They all struggled to make sense of what happened and tried to relay to viewers what little information was known. At first, there was speculation that the explosions were an accident, but it soon became apparent that small bombs were detonated deliberately to disrupt the event and….

There are many examples of God's love, but much violence as well. The Bible is full of stories of warring peoples, fighting to the death for their beliefs. Persecution of the Jews, seen on a massive scale as late as the 20th century's Holocaust, was fueled by the New Testament, as Jews were blamed for the crucifixion death of Jesus Christ. Even after World War II, Jews in the U.S. faced persecution through restricted access to certain colleges, clubs and organizations. The Ku Klux Klan, known for targeting African-Americans, has also targeted Jews.
The 20th century saw considerable violence in Northern Ireland, as Protestants and Catholics murdered each other in the name of their respective branches of Christianity. Like radical Muslims, a relatively small number of people believed that violence was the answer, and the only way to demonstrate their commitment to their God.

The Westboro Baptist Church has garnered considerable….

ainwright v Gideon
In 1961, a man named Clarence Earl Gideon was arrested for stealing coins and alcohol from a Panama City, Florida, pool hall. He was a poor man and could not afford a lawyer. Following his conviction, he served five years in prison. During that time, he sent a handwritten letter to the Supreme Court in which he explained that he had been forced to fend for himself in court, without legal representation. Because of Mr. Gideon, the Supreme Court justices declared that criminal defendants have a right to legal aid (Gest). It was a right decision by the Supreme Court. The United States was founded on the principle that all men should be equal. By providing criminal defense to the poor, the court is leveling the playing field so that everyone receives the same fair treatment. Since crimes are committed disproportionately by the poor, the Supreme Court's decision….

shared between Boston Marathon runners and designer clothes from United Colors of Benetton, one will find that all of them are being tracked using a technology which has lasted for ten years known as Radio Frequency Identification (RFID). It revolutionized supply chain management dramatically for corporation for the next three years. Due to the fact that retail chains which are large in size like al-Mart being in need of main suppliers to back up technology of RFID by January 2005, most of the corporations are going to take the coming 12 to 18 months still on trial of figuring out the way systems can be implemented that gives them opportunity to apply the technology in order to track their products starting with manufacturing to main distributors.
Technology of RFID has several uses not just simple tracking of people, animals as well as merchandise. Tags from RFID are made up of….
