The underground society, which according to Tom Buchannan, referred as “temple of virtue” was a place where all sorts of banned activities involving renowned authorities were carried out and it was the place where Nick Carraway and Meyer Wolfshiem first met. Noticing that Nick Carraway was with Jay Gatsby, Meyer Wolfshiem mistaken Nick Carraway as one of them and…

the insider’s breach necessarily requires knowledge that the insider disclosed confidential information in exchange for personal benefit.” (Id. at 449). United States v. O’Hagan established that Rule 10b-5 could be directed at deceptions whose primary harm was unjust enrichment rather than fraud that hindered efficient markets. The problem with the classical theory was that there was still questionable room on what constituted insider trading liability, which could be a non-fiduciary instance to…

at the end of the story. The story is told in a semi-conversation between the daughter’s engraved memories of what her mother would tell her, and her own thoughts responding to her. At the same time, Danticat mentions in her interview she feels an insider/outsider type of relationship with her country Haiti which she feel she belongs to at times and oftentimes…

How should insiders deal with factual challenges from outsiders when discussing religion? A simple answer could be to ignore it. But would it really be that easy? Outsiders try really hard to prove one’s religion wrong. But why? Many outsiders come up with reasons to say that God does not exist or the things in a religion are not true. They try to pull people away from their beliefs. In my opinion, I feel as though if outsiders don’t believe in God or our religion they shouldn’t try proving…

especially through the eyes of Kant who said, “In order that action should be morally good, it is not enough that it conform to the moral law, but it also must be done for the sake of the law” (Kant & Abbot, 1916, p. 6). So Rajaratnam, knowing that insider trading was taboo, because it often causes damage to others, should have simply reframed from engaging in the illegal activities regardless of the circumstances, because the law existed as a source of protection. Even if for whatever reason he…

authors argue that internal attacks from insider threats are very common and much less appreciated than the cyber attacks that are prompted by external threats. Upton and Creese note that cyberattacks caused by insiders (such as employees, vendors, or anyone from any company that is connected to--or has access to--a firm’s computer system) are responsible for 20% of all cyberattacks (p. 5). The authors argue that companies do not understand the magnitude of insider threats, nor do they take them…

such varying times, two distinct groups of teens can be formed. Insiders, or those who have sexual experience, and outsiders, who have yet to engage in sexual activity. In Junot Diaz’s instruction manual “How to Date a Brown Girl (Black Girl, White Girl, or Halfie)”, the narrator Yunior, who is presumably a teenage Dominican boy, describes how to convince a girl to have sex. The manual explores the differences between sexual insiders and outsiders and describes…

Jill Dubisch article focuses on two related issues that are happening in the Greece community. The two main points she wrote about is the control of female sexuality, particularly in terms of concepts of “honor and shame”, and women’s power and its relationship to the public and private spheres of community life. I can relate to this article because when she mentioned honor and shame. In my community it’s similarly to that, our elders and parents would always say “makka nuu belisenn” meaning…

trade on insider information. Darla is not employed by Cardware, and she did not steal the information, so it would be difficult to charge her with "misappropriation." There is also another test under the insider trading law. Darla did not pay anybody for the information, which also helps her case. Recent insider trading case law says that the "tipper" (person giving out confidential information) has to receive compensation for that tip. So it adds another more stringent requirement for insider…
