Data Innovations Office facilitates cross–sector analytical insight generation to drive competitive value and optimize the use of its resources and
financial assets. Under the Chief Data Officer's leadership this office provides analytical services to many other business units. An agency
relationship exists between Data Innovations Office and all other business units who use its services. At the same time, this office employs services
of third party business analytics service providers. At times, the third party companies may need a database to create solutions which pose a great
value. They might not be able to generate these databases on their own due to sheer volume of data and lack of very expensive data processing
environments. Although these companies are hired to provide services solely for the interest of the principal – in our case Citigroup– they might see a
potential to profit from selling their findings to other corporations. The principal limits such behavior by establishing appropriate incentives for the
agent through the Master Service Agreements and by incurring monitoring costs. A non–disclosure agreement is also signed by the agent to legally
prevent them from releasing any of their findings.
Brickley, Smith, and Zimmerman (2009) stated that the variety of tasks and scope of decision authority are two important dimensions of job design (p.
365). At Citi, job

Essay on Writing Experience
My Writing Experiences My experiences in writing have been minimal. I have only learned the basics of writing, like putting together sentences,
forming paragraphs with sentences, and things like that. Since I have been taking college English, I can tell my writing has improved a lot. In the
future, I hope to be able to improve tremendously at writing essays, paragraphs, research papers, documents, and stories so that I have very little to no
errors with drafting and final products. I predict I will be a well rounded writer when I graduate from college. Writing in the past started in
kindergarten. My teacher taught me how to write my name over and over until I could write it with no errors. All through elementary my teachers
taught me...show more content...
I need to learn to quit thinking as much on what I want to write about and how to write about a topic and just starting jotting stuff down in outline form
as it comes to mind. Run–ons and fragments I need to be able to spot and fix right away or I really need to not have any in my papers at all. My
goals are to write papers and not have to reassure myself that maybe I need to do more research or have more data or even have to rethink my
whole topic over. I would love to have the knowledge to be a tutor someday and teach other people how to properly write papers, paragraphs,
essays, and maybe even books. To have excellent skills in writing will definitely be a great advantage in my nursing profession. In nursing, I will
have to do lots of charting on my patients. I will have to do health presentations on various subjects such as exercising, how our society eats, and
sex education if I want to be a course instructor. Researching information on all of those topics I will have to make sure I do an excellent job on and
collect accurate information and statistics so that I can compare to other sources. Dictating to the doctor means that I will need to write properly so
that he understands what I am saying. Other nurses will have to be able to understand what I am talking about by my writing skills when doing shift

An analysis of Case 29: Big Pharma's Marketing Tactics
Introduction
The Big Pharma controversy is about the wide–scale marketing malpractices used by big pharmaceutical companies in America which resulted in a
series of negative implications on consumers. It revolves around pharmaceutical companies, government regulators, health professionals (or
"unprofessional"), market consumers and the medical watchdogs. The dispute was formed between the supporters of the marketing tactics used by
pharmaceutical representatives and the detractors to it. Specifically it is the context that matters: Is it right, or rather ethical for the medical...show more
content...
Back in 2009, a study out of Harvard University and Massachusetts General Hospital found that 84 percent of doctors have ties to drug companies, a
ten percent drop from five years earlier. But roughly two thirds of doctors still accept drug samples, while 70 percent accept food and beverage
incentives from drug companies. And fourteen percent continue to accept cash payments for services. While some of these unethical practices were
tapered off, not all were uprooted. Some doctors did not disclose the amount of gifts and cash which they have accepted from the drug companies.
They believe that their decisions on the prescription of drugs would not be influenced by the gifts which they have accepted.
In my opinion, the supporters, primarily the health professionals and representatives of the pharmaceutical giants, have disregarded the genuine health
implications and the high drug costs incurred to the general public in concern. They might try fending off such moral challenges by claiming that
substantial amount of advertising is necessary to boost the sales of their products. Securing more profits would also mean more money can be invested
on research for better drugs. However, it is evident that the excessive promotional efforts of drugs have blinded the pharmaceutical industry, in the
pursuit of more profits and sales. Their main concern of profit maximization still

Essay on Self Harm
Introduction Deliberate self–harm is a term that covers a wide range of behaviours some of which are directly related to suicide and some are not.
This is a relatively common behaviour that is little understood. This essay provides an overview of the nature and extent of those most at risk of
self–harm, including causes and risk factors. Examining some of the stereotyping that surrounds self –harm, and looking at ways in which self–harm
can be prevented.
A useful definition of self–harm is from Professor Keith Hawton (Hawton et al., 2006. p29). An act with a non–fatal outcome in which an individual
deliberately did one or more of the following;
Initiated behaviour (e.g. self–cutting, jumping from a height), which they...show more content...
Research clearly indicates a link between self–harm and sexual abuse in childhood and was particularly marked in women who had been subjected to
severe, frequent abuse. Further studies confirmed that the more severe, more prolonged, or a longer duration of sexual abuse was associated with an
increased risk of engaging in self–harm as an adult. Marginalization may also be the explanation for the high risk of self–harm in gay, bisexual,
transsexual teenagers who are 2 to 3 times more likely to self–harm than heterosexual young people, this groups results in regular absenteeism at school
due to homophobic harassment. 50% of those reported bullied at school had contemplated self–harm, 40% of those had self–harmed at least once. A
survey in 2000 to 2002 interviewed 2,430 lesbian women, gay men and bisexual men and women in England and Wales and concluded that there is a
greater link between discrimination and mental health issues. (Truth Hurts, Mental Health Foundation 2006). Asian women aged 15 to 35 are two to
three times more vulnerable to self–harm than their non–Asian counterparts. Research revealed a complex range of disturbing issues, isolation, despair,
many forms of family abuse, conflicts between generations, with many reporting unrealistic pressures of rigid matrimonial roles and duties in

Why Do We Dream? Essays
Why do we Dream?
It has been said by researchers that everyone dreams during sleep and it is thought to be a universal psychical feature of our human lives. However,
many of us are unable to recall vividly what happens throughout our dreams, if anything at all. Due to this clouded unique nature that is dreaming, most
of the knowledge why we dream is largely inconclusive. Nonetheless, after many years of theoretical debate on the subject, three arguments have
remained prominent of which I will I will be discussing.
Perhaps the most renowned theory of dreaming comes from the famous psychologist, Dr Sigmund Freud. He proposed that our dreams were likened to
a В‘royal road' (Plotnik 2005) to our unconscious thoughts and desires. In this...show more content...
Many have creditably theorised that dreams are extensions of our waking life. It is believed that this close link between our daily lives and that of our
dreams acts as a restorative function deeply analysing our current В‘thoughts, fears, concerns, problems and emotions. Researchers have also
discovered that our dreaming can exhibit various other tasks including problem solving and the enlightening of creativity. Such occurrences have been
proven with musician Paul McCartney having written the famous dream inspired hit В‘yesterday'. He recalls В‘I just woke up one morning and I
supposed I'd been dreaming or something and I'd got this little tune in my head' (www0.bbc.co.uk/radio2/soldonsong/songlibrary/indepth
/yesterday.shtml).
Dreaming can also be viewed in a more biological sense known as the activation–synthesis theory, in which areas of our brain that are usually inactive
while awake, are activated when asleep. The areas stimulated have been found, due to Hobson's brain scans or the 1970's, to be that of visual (visual
cortex) and emotional (limbic system) areas of our brain. Such theory explains the random, hallucinatory images induced by dreamers and the disorder
of events remembered due to the inaction of thought processing areas (prefrontal cortex).
In all, dreaming is a phenomenon that can generally be argued as serviceable to our being and is certainly fascinating, however it's clear purposes
remain uncertain.
