Without having any background knowledge on the situation of Gove.docx
Without having any background knowledge on the situation of Governor Bob Riley and his efforts to implement a sweeping tax reform on the State of Alabama, there are some significant things that caught my attention within the video. The State of Alabama was already experiencing major deficit and a lower class population which was severely affected by the suffering education system in turn contributing to a population which would have difficulty moving up in class. It seems that there were not many options available to the State of Alabama; either a sweeping reform which would significantly increase taxes (though Riley assigned these hikes to the wealthy) or significant budget cuts which would affect some already suffering divisions funded by the budget.
In an effort to persuade the voters to support and vote yes for his reform, Bob Riley fell back on political jockeying. He used religion to encourage people to follow the plan he was pushing for. Within his political messages he stated the Christian way to handle the deficit was to tax the wealthy because his Testament reveals that the rich should take care of the less fortunate.
Is political jockeying an appropriate method in government? Should it be present in the development of state budgets, executive activity, or legislative activity? I think to an extent it may sometimes be acceptable. But the means that should be used to persuade voters on policies should be facts and statistical information which supports what will occur with a policy. And perhaps more of an explanation of a personal opinion. I think the efforts used in Riley’s scenario almost placed a guilt on others. The interesting thing about his political jockeying efforts is that the population that was being targeted to benefit the most were the ones who seem to have opposed his reform during the voting process.

Gapenski, L. C., & Pink, G. H. (2015). Understanding healthcare financial management (7th ed.). Chicago: Association of University Programs in Health Administration and Health Administration Press. ISBN 9781567937060.:
Financial View
· The financial view is held by those who normally handle finance on a daily basis, such as auditors, accountants, and financial analysts.
· Their strength lies in their ability to interpret data and spot problems before they become too critical.
· One of the key weaknesses is that these individuals are often very good with the minute details but often have a difficult time with the big picture.
Process View
· The process view is normally held by those individuals who are responsible for the financial systems and typically comprise the information technology departments.
· Their strength is the ability to take raw data and turn it into meaningful reports.
· Their weakness lies in not having all information at once. Since there are normally multiple individuals working in this department, each individual may have various pieces of the financial puzzle, but few have the ability to see it all.
Clinical View
· The clinical view is normally held by those who are responsible for the day to day interactions of the patients and are usually the licensed healthcare professionals.
· Their strength lies in their desire to ensure the best possible outcome for the patient and they generally serve as the patients’ advocate.
· Their weakness may actually be the same as their strength. Many clinical individuals want to provide the best for their patients, regardless of cost. Therefore, they may have a difficult time balancing the needs of the patients with the needs of the organization.
There are strengths and weaknesses to each viewpoint. Perhaps the ideal viewpoint would be where these three perspectives overlap. However, it is certainly not an easy task. Being able to see through each one of these lenses requires that the individual manager be in constant communication with other departments. While it may not be possible to fully integrate all three perspectives, being aware of them better prepares the manager to meet both patient and organizational objectives.

Do you believe leaders can use the same strategies to connect with remote workers as they would with an onsite team? Why, or why not?
ANSWER THE ABOVE QUESTION AND REPLY TO MY CLASSMATE RESPONSE TO THE ABOVE QUESTIONS AND EXPLAIN WHY YOU AGREE? (A MINIMUM OF 125 WORDS or MORE)
CLASSMATE’S POST
In the podcast discussion about remote workers, the important points I understood was building a trustful and dependable relationship with the remote workers. Making a connection and continuing that connection at all times. I believe with the technology available today, teleconferencing, videoconferencing and real-time communications by phone, that leadership can build as meaningful a relationship with remote workers as with in house workers. Remote workers want their tasks communicated well to them and they want the tools they need to get their jobs done. They also want to know that their contribution to the organization is just as important as others. I have been in the position of a remote worker and understand the possible challenges. I appreciated leaders that would not only ask questions about the operational efforts but also about the personal and emotional needs of the remote workers. The success of the organization is dependent on all team members being connected and pulling together towards the same goal of exceeding the strategic vision of the business.

Within the last several years, Adobe Flash became the dominant forma.docx
Within the last several years, Adobe Flash became the dominant format for embedding video on the Web because Adobe Flash Player was free and available on a variety of different platforms and operating systems. However in April 2010, Steve Jobs, CEO of Apple, explained that Apple would not support Flash on its mobile devices, including the iPhone, iPod, and iPad. Among the reasons cited, Jobs included his concerns that a) Flash was proprietary, a fact that inhibits the future development of multimedia on the Web; b) Flash was not secure or reliable and adversely affects the performance of mobile devices; c) Flash was a significant drain on battery life; and d) Flash was designed for PCs using a mouse interface and could not be adapted to the touch interface found on mobile devices. Rather than relying on Flash, Jobs advocated the continuing development of open standards for Web video including the rapid adoption of HTML5.
However, thousands of Web sites had made considerable investments in Flash and were not happy with the prospect of significantly retooling their sites. In response, in March 2011, Adobe released a tool to convert Flash files to HTML5-compatible formats so they run on Apple's mobile devices. Also, Flash is supported on several mobile operating systems, such as the Android platform for mobile devices.
Users running older browsers will not be able to use HTML5 video; so for complete cross-browser support, you'll make a Flash version of the
Royal Wedding
clip available to users. Maxine has created an Adobe Flash Player file named
rwdance.swf
containing both the video clip and the controls to run it.
Does Jobs have a point? Is it better for web developers to rely on one proprietary means of displaying video? Is it best to have a standard? If so, how should a standard be developed? If not, what's better about varied means?

Within the criminal justice system, the classification of the crime .docx
Within the criminal justice system, the classification of the crime and the classification of the offender will, in large part, determine the available pathways for the offender to return to the community. Individuals who have committed violent crimes are less likely to be allowed probation as an alternative to incarceration, whereas first-time offenders are likely to be seen as better candidates for community treatment programs.
The Assignment (2–3 pages):
Consider an offender group relevant to your current or future profession, including needs and concerns for this group. Ex. Sex offenders, abusive/neglectful parents, etc.
Analyze the community placement pathways available for offenders in your community (city/county/state). Explain what they are, how they work, and the strengths and limitations of each.

Within Chapter 8 there is a section discussing Robert Merton's Strain Theory of Deviance. This theory basically argues that when individuals feel pressure and/or strain to attain certain cultural goals they may resort to different forms of deviance to alleviate the pressure and achieve specific social goals.
Utilizing Merton's theory identify you will need to identify an individual or social group that is well known in the public sphere. You will be utilizing one of his subcategories of deviant behavior (innovator, ritualist, rebel, or retreatist). You will need to explain and specify which category this individual best fits into and why using their own behavior and track record as your examples. For example, you may choose a professional athlete (Lebron James), artist(?) (Justin Bieber), or social group such as the Amish.

Within Sociology as well as in social psychology, it is noted th.docx
Within Sociology as well as in social psychology, it is noted that an in-group basically is a social group whereby an individual gets to identify themselves as a member psychologically. On the other hand, an Out-group basically is defined as a social group which a person is not able to identify with. For instance, individuals are in a position of identifying themselves with same peer group, a political party, community, family, religion, sports team nation or even gender. It is evident that with the membership that is psychological regarding social groups in addition to classifications happens to be linked to a phenomenon that is of a wide range. There is the presence of stereotypes within interactions in between various social groups in addition to gender stereotypes being considered as prevalent. (Buss, 2015).
In-group
It is known that the automatic in-group bias of women is evidently stronger as compared to that of men. This is because only women are in a position of showing balance that is cognitive across in-group identity, self-esteem as well as bias. This is an indication that men do not have any mechanism in place for bolstering preference for own group automatically. There is bias that is pro-female to a point the individuals tend to favor their own mothers as compared to their fathers, there is also the association of the gender that is male with violence which is an indication that bonding that is maternal as well as intimidation of male have an influence on the gender attitudes. (De La Cerda and Warnell, 2020).
Out-group
Additionally, within in-group bias as well as Out-group bias, it happens that the men who are experiences sexually, have an attitude that is more positive in addition to favoring women implicitly. In addition, through the adoption of an approach that is evolutionary to the race bias psychology, it is possible to posit that conflict that is between intergroup which has been perpetrated by aggressors who are men all through the evolutionary history of human, has played a role in shaping the modern types psychology in relation to Out-group bias whereby, the psychology is a reflection of the unique adaptive challenges differing in between women as well as men when trying to cope with the aggressors who are male from the out-groups.
In conclusion there tends to be very minimal differences in between women as well as men as the conformity they tend to exhibit, in addition, these differences are said to be impacted by the social circumstances where the conformity happens to take place through the differences in gender. On an average basis, women in addition to men have levels that are different in relation to self-concern in addition to different concern. Men basically on averagely, are said to have more focus on their appearance of having a status that is high in addition to having the capacity to illustrate the status through independent acting from other people’s perceptions.

With the rapid development of the Internet, a big data era chara.docx
With the rapid development of the Internet, a big data era characterized by information explosion is coming. Public security relies on predictive policing to improve its work efficiency. Predictive policing based on large data analysis, it predicts which area of a city is most likely to occurs crimes and where criminals are most likely to be found. Privacy and civil rights must be seriously considered the problems of predictive policing, especially those who are predicted as offenders or victims. In the fiction short story “The Minority Report” by Philip K. Dick, describing Washington in 2054, the judicial system has been able to predict crime through psychological technology, system helps arrest the before he commits the crime. Dick shows his concern about predictive policing, which has been consistently developed; however, the main problem with predictive policing is its reliability. Although this is only a science fiction vision of the future, PredPol has made it a reality to some extent. Recently, the Los Angeles Police Department announced an expansion of the use of crime prediction software to speculate when and where crime is most likely to occur. Dick’s concern supports modern criticism of predictive policing and technology that crime prediction models are based on flawed statistics that reflect inherent prejudices in the criminal justice system.
Dick’s concern about predictive policing were that it is not accurate and contain lots of flaw. John Anderton, one of the elites of the pre-crime team, was accused of murdering a man he didn't know. In the process of his death and pursuit, Anderton learned that it was the three “PreCogs” who had the power to decide whether a person's guilt was ultimately established. If two of them are found guilty and the other disagrees, the last one is in the minority, whose opinion is called Minority Report. In story, Anderton states, "If the system can survive only by imprisoning innocent people, then it deserves to be destroyed. My personal safety is important because I'm a human being. And furthermore-"(Anderton, 114) By using the word “innocent,” Dick shows the potential unreliability of the predict technology. After reconsidered the meaning of pre-crime system, Anderton realized that what he has believed was successful is all built on the suffering of the people and threatening their lives. Dick emphasizes that the predictive technology should seek a balance between protecting individual privacy and safety. This action makes the argument of whether the society should trust the predictive policing system. In the end, Anderton did not kill the person who appeared in the Precogs’ prediction. However, the matter is that it's not possible to penalize someone before he commits a criminal offense simply because he's judged to own a motive.
The not accuracy and flaws contain in predictive policing that Dick’s concern has still value in the modern society… （missing second part of the prompt which is Analyze.

Today there is still "Defacto Segregation" (segregation of the races not based on law). There is still discrimination in employment (and many other things) against people of color and other legally protected class of people. Women despite laws against it still make over 20 cents per dollar less than men for doing the same work.

With the increasing population, climate change, and deteriorat.docx
With the increasing population, climate change, and deteriorating water
quality, water security is becoming a key concern in most societies around the
world. Typically, water security is about ensuring that everyone in the society is
accessing to adequate and safe water at an affordable price to enhance health,
productive and dignified life (Rinkesh, 2018). Water security ensures that the
ecological systems are maintained appropriately, hence, leading to sustainable
development. If access to water is messed up, societies are largely affected and are
at risk of transmitting diseases and even dying. In fact, the growing water demands
and changing water supplies due to climate change have caused water scarcity.
Unless action is implemented soon, it could cost some societies up to 8% of their
GDP by 2050 (Castelo, 2018). Addressing this issue requires a proper and feasible
solution, which can be applied in any region. That being said, this paper focuses on
water security issue in Italy and presents an individually-tailored solution for
addressing this issue.
In recent years, water supply is becoming a social and economic issue in
Italy, primarily because of increasing water demand and poor management
practices. While Italy has been experiencing rapid population growth, water
scarcity can be highly related to the effects of climate change on water resources
across regions in the country. These impacts have led to reductions in quantity,
quality, and availability of water, with rising frequency and intensity of droughts,
particularly in summer. There have been increased rate and severity of river flow
droughts, with yearly river flow decrease by up to 80% (Climatechangepost, 2019).
Besides, the recharge of groundwater demonstrates a decreasing trend, with
resultant reduction of fresh groundwater resources, specifically in coastal regions.
With these conditions, there is no adequate and accessible water for people, which
poses an acute risk of poor health and decreased sustainable development.
It should be noted that water is at the core of sustainable growth and is
essential for socio-economic development, food, and energy production, and for
human existence itself. Therefore, as the issue of water scarcity continues to
escalate in Italy, it is crucial to develop and implement an appropriate solution. In
particular, Italy should focus on efforts to recharge groundwater, mainly in areas
where water scarcity is prevailing. Artificial groundwater recharging has been
proven to be one of the most effective approaches to solving water scarcity in many
regions (Castelo, 2018). As such, the process of recharge can either be a natural
process or human-induced process in the hydrological cycle. The government and
relevant agencies can inject wells in different areas or spread basins, with measures
for controlling waste disposal and irrigation.
Recharging of water can also be implemented through aquifer recovery and

With the elements style, tone, and irony, students are especially us.docx
With the elements style, tone, and irony, students are especially used to unconscious recognition, a kind of "know it when I see it" affair. However, the book breaks them down well and shows different ways in which to recognize and analyze these elements. Style is something we are highly attuned to. We all have our own personal clothing style, speaking style, and even academic style - we study differently, think about how classes should be differently, respond to different teaching methods differently, and have different expectations about what a class should be. Trust me, this is something I am well aware of. What we often don't know is where these expectations and choices come from. It is especially difficult for us to question our own preferences when it comes to style, but it is also difficult to understand other people's choices. The important thing to have when it comes to style is an open mind. It is helpful to give people the benefit of the doubt and open ourselves up to different styles. We should always be in a conversation with an author. Why has the author chose a specific style? Why has an author left so much out? Sometimes we get unsettled by having to answer questions about a work because they don't answer them for us. However, if we understand an author's choices as an aspect of style, we can go ahead and assume there is a plan there. All we are left with is what is there. So we break that down into categories and look for important comparisons and relationships among these component pieces that may give us a clue as to what it is an author had in mind. This will be especially important when we get to poetry. Poetry is in many ways the art of leaving out everything but the absolute essentials. It is meant to bring us out of our comfort zone and force us to have an experience that we may not be comfortable with. We are left on our own to build something and to examine something and especially to question something. This is an important skill in the academic world. It is a process of creation. It is less about achieving some kind of goal and more about having an experience. That can be unsettling for students who often want things to be black and white, right or wrong. However, if we push ourselves into uncertainty and become comfortable with not having a necessarily right or wrong answer but instead a strong analysis, we can work with style. We also have the tools that the book teaches us, the elements. By breaking things down into pieces and categorizing them, we can come to conclusions that were not readily apparent when we began a process of analysis, much like the drafting process. We must begin somewhere and allow the process to take us somewhere new. It is messy. It isn't neat, but it is an experience that can change you and transform your thinking if you allow it to. What are some ways we can look at style to take it from just a group of preferences by an author to a distinct method that reflects the central idea? One th.

Within the last several years, Adobe Flash became the dominant forma.docx
Within the last several years, Adobe Flash became the dominant format for embedding video on the Web because Adobe Flash Player was free and available on a variety of different platforms and operating systems. However in April 2010, Steve Jobs, CEO of Apple, explained that Apple would not support Flash on its mobile devices, including the iPhone, iPod, and iPad. Among the reasons cited, Jobs included his concerns that a) Flash was proprietary, a fact that inhibits the future development of multimedia on the Web; b) Flash was not secure or reliable and adversely affects the performance of mobile devices; c) Flash was a significant drain on battery life; and d) Flash was designed for PCs using a mouse interface and could not be adapted to the touch interface found on mobile devices. Rather than relying on Flash, Jobs advocated the continuing development of open standards for Web video including the rapid adoption of HTML5.
However, thousands of Web sites had made considerable investments in Flash and were not happy with the prospect of significantly retooling their sites. In response, in March 2011, Adobe released a tool to convert Flash files to HTML5-compatible formats so they run on Apple's mobile devices. Also, Flash is supported on several mobile operating systems, such as the Android platform for mobile devices.
Users running older browsers will not be able to use HTML5 video; so for complete cross-browser support, you'll make a Flash version of the
Royal Wedding
clip available to users. Maxine has created an Adobe Flash Player file named
rwdance.swf
containing both the video clip and the controls to run it.
Does Jobs have a point? Is it better for web developers to rely on one proprietary means of displaying video? Is it best to have a standard? If so, how should a standard be developed? If not, what's better about varied means?

Within the criminal justice system, the classification of the crime .docx
Within the criminal justice system, the classification of the crime and the classification of the offender will, in large part, determine the available pathways for the offender to return to the community. Individuals who have committed violent crimes are less likely to be allowed probation as an alternative to incarceration, whereas first-time offenders are likely to be seen as better candidates for community treatment programs.
The Assignment (2–3 pages):
Consider an offender group relevant to your current or future profession, including needs and concerns for this group. Ex. Sex offenders, abusive/neglectful parents, etc.
Analyze the community placement pathways available for offenders in your community (city/county/state). Explain what they are, how they work, and the strengths and limitations of each.

Within Sociology as well as in social psychology, it is noted th.docx
Within Sociology as well as in social psychology, it is noted that an in-group basically is a social group whereby an individual gets to identify themselves as a member psychologically. On the other hand, an Out-group basically is defined as a social group which a person is not able to identify with. For instance, individuals are in a position of identifying themselves with same peer group, a political party, community, family, religion, sports team nation or even gender. It is evident that with the membership that is psychological regarding social groups in addition to classifications happens to be linked to a phenomenon that is of a wide range. There is the presence of stereotypes within interactions in between various social groups in addition to gender stereotypes being considered as prevalent. (Buss, 2015).
In-group
It is known that the automatic in-group bias of women is evidently stronger as compared to that of men. This is because only women are in a position of showing balance that is cognitive across in-group identity, self-esteem as well as bias. This is an indication that men do not have any mechanism in place for bolstering preference for own group automatically. There is bias that is pro-female to a point the individuals tend to favor their own mothers as compared to their fathers, there is also the association of the gender that is male with violence which is an indication that bonding that is maternal as well as intimidation of male have an influence on the gender attitudes. (De La Cerda and Warnell, 2020).
Out-group
Additionally, within in-group bias as well as Out-group bias, it happens that the men who are experiences sexually, have an attitude that is more positive in addition to favoring women implicitly. In addition, through the adoption of an approach that is evolutionary to the race bias psychology, it is possible to posit that conflict that is between intergroup which has been perpetrated by aggressors who are men all through the evolutionary history of human, has played a role in shaping the modern types psychology in relation to Out-group bias whereby, the psychology is a reflection of the unique adaptive challenges differing in between women as well as men when trying to cope with the aggressors who are male from the out-groups.
In conclusion there tends to be very minimal differences in between women as well as men as the conformity they tend to exhibit, in addition, these differences are said to be impacted by the social circumstances where the conformity happens to take place through the differences in gender. On an average basis, women in addition to men have levels that are different in relation to self-concern in addition to different concern. Men basically on averagely, are said to have more focus on their appearance of having a status that is high in addition to having the capacity to illustrate the status through independent acting from other people’s perceptions. (Harvard, et.al, 2021).

With the rapid development of the Internet, a big data era chara.docx
With the rapid development of the Internet, a big data era characterized by information explosion is coming. Public security relies on predictive policing to improve its work efficiency. Predictive policing based on large data analysis, it predicts which area of a city is most likely to occurs crimes and where criminals are most likely to be found. Privacy and civil rights must be seriously considered the problems of predictive policing, especially those who are predicted as offenders or victims. In the fiction short story “The Minority Report” by Philip K. Dick, describing Washington in 2054, the judicial system has been able to predict crime through psychological technology, system helps arrest the before he commits the crime. Dick shows his concern about predictive policing, which has been consistently developed; however, the main problem with predictive policing is its reliability. Although this is only a science fiction vision of the future, PredPol has made it a reality to some extent. Recently, the Los Angeles Police Department announced an expansion of the use of crime prediction software to speculate when and where crime is most likely to occur. Dick’s concern supports modern criticism of predictive policing and technology that crime prediction models are based on flawed statistics that reflect inherent prejudices in the criminal justice system.
Dick’s concern about predictive policing were that it is not accurate and contain lots of flaw. John Anderton, one of the elites of the pre-crime team, was accused of murdering a man he didn't know. In the process of his death and pursuit, Anderton learned that it was the three “PreCogs” who had the power to decide whether a person's guilt was ultimately established. If two of them are found guilty and the other disagrees, the last one is in the minority, whose opinion is called Minority Report. In story, Anderton states, "If the system can survive only by imprisoning innocent people, then it deserves to be destroyed. My personal safety is important because I'm a human being. And furthermore-"(Anderton, 114) By using the word “innocent,” Dick shows the potential unreliability of the predict technology. After reconsidered the meaning of pre-crime system, Anderton realized that what he has believed was successful is all built on the suffering of the people and threatening their lives. Dick emphasizes that the predictive technology should seek a balance between protecting individual privacy and safety. This action makes the argument of whether the society should trust the predictive policing system. In the end, Anderton did not kill the person who appeared in the Precogs’ prediction. However, the matter is that it's not possible to penalize someone before he commits a criminal offense simply because he's judged to own a motive.
The not accuracy and flaws contain in predictive policing that Dick’s concern has still value in the modern society… （missing second part of the prompt which is Analyze.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
