Website: Look and FeelThe Banking and Investment business is one of the more competitive type organizations in today's marketplace. To decrease cost and increase profit the banking industry is moving toward the virtual storefront and away from its grass-roots of the "bricks and mortar" business design. Like any business-to-consumer e-business venture, the primary focus would be to develop, operate, and manage the e-business website to increase membership of the organization's online customer base along with using the internet as an addition tool and benefit for other more traditional banking customers.

The photographs on Trumps website are all very similar viewing his own rally’s and success, while on Justin Trudeau’s website he shows casual pictures of himself helping the community while being a father at the same time.

Writing for Academics
The process I take for an academic setting is on a opposite spectrum from the way I write for self-satisfaction. Writing is derived from within yourself and the process you take to compose a piece is merely the way to express your thoughts to the appropriate format. I tend to have a form of writers' block that actually may be beneficial in my case. When I write for a class, I have to come up with new ideas in my head and this is sometimes challenging. Ideas generate in my head so fast that it causes me to become numb to the point where I can't put my words into writing. Yet, this

The Moral Obligations and impermissibility of Gene Editing
Back in 2015 a study involving experiments on human embryos by use of the means of gene editing was published, adding to the evidence that genome editing could lead to cures of diseases once thought to be death sentences to many.

So prominent scientific journals called for a moratorium on further research and asks us the public to debate the moral and philosophical questions that arise from the potential of genome editing. In this essay I intend to explore just that by stating how when it

1. What is the value of gift cards to retailers?
The value of gift cards to retailers is receiving the cash up front. Once a gift card is bought, it cannot be returned for a refund as items are. Some retailers also have expiration dates on gift cards and if the gift card expires or is never used, the retailer pockets that profit without losing any merchandise. According to gift card statistics, “59% of consumers surveyed spend more than the [gift] card’s value” (Hunter, 2018), bringing in more revenue for the retailer.

Abstract
This paper showcases the many ways you can use to determine if a website is credible. It is important to know how to do this because you do not want to rely on information that may not be true.
