Address the following in your analysis:

Read the Build A Bear Case material and identify and analyze the principal strategies that the firm expresses and assess whether these strategies are appropriate for the industry in which it operates.

Identify and explain the forces that have shaped the company and defined its current place in the marketplace. Determine and discuss whether the firm faces more challenges than opportunities in its market.

Prepare a SWOT analysis of the company, revealing awareness of the firm’s competencies, capabilities, and resources and relate the same to the opportunities and threats confronting the firm. Pay close attention to its financial performance over the last few years. Using the SWOT as your foundation, discuss whether the firm’s strategies conform to what the theory suggests would be appropriate.

1) CT scans are a medical imaging procedure to give pictures of internal organs. Scans have been done for a long time on people who smoke, and can detect emphysema which may lead to lung cancer. CT scans were done on non-smokers and those with detections of emphysema also had a higher chance of developing lung cancer.

2) This research notes the importance of detecting emphysema in all people, smokers and non-smokers, for it is an important predictor of lung cancer.

3) Henschke, C. I., Yip, R., Boffetta, P., Markowitz, S., Miller, A., Hanaoka, T., … & I-ELCAP Investigators. (2015). CT screening for lung cancer: Importance of emphysema for never smokers and smokers. Lung Cancer, 88(1), 42-47.

Project description
Please prepare a 1 to 3 page paper on the following:
Thomas Jefferson famously said about the law and Constitutional guarantees, I am not an advocate for frequent changes in laws and Constitutions. But laws and institutions must go hand in hand with the progress of the human mind. As that becomes more developed, more enlightened, as new discoveries are made, new truths discovered and manners and opinions change, with the change of circumstances, institutions must advance also to keep pace with the times. We might as well require a man to wear still the coat which fitted him when a boy as civilized society to remain ever under the regimen of their barbarous ancestors.
Explain Jeffersons reasoning and how it is borne out by the US Supreme Courts cases of Dred Scott v. Sandford; the Thirteenth Amendment; Plessy v. Ferguson; and Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka, Kansas. As well as the development of American society during this time period.
