BIO34: Human Heredity and Evolution EXTRA CREDIT Paper Prompt Roughly 10-years have passed since The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks was published. With regard to legal rights and property claims, there has been some progress towards laws and guidelines regarding using patients’ tissues for research and commercial endeavors. However, there are still many areas of ambiguity in the laws and regulations towards using patients’ cells and/or tissues. Find a recent example in the news that relates to issues of informed consent, property rights, and patients’ rights that were discussed in The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks. A “recent” example can include ANY stories and/or events that have occurred after the publishing of The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks in 2009, after which the public became more aware of the issues presented in the book. Please write a 3-page (double-spaced) paper in which you: 1. Summarize the selected example, providing the Appropriate Citation of the news article(s) in which you learned about the event and/or case being reported on. 2. Provide an analysis in which you compare-and-contrast how the ethical problems were addressed in a manner differently OR similarly than the case with HeLa cells. 3. Provide a concluding argument about whether you think adequate improvements are in the progress of being made towards the issues of consent and/or property rights regarding the use of patient’s tissues, or if there are still notable deficiencies in how we deal with these matters. You must cite AT LEAST one article that brings up the “recent” example, so you can compare it to The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks. The source can be primary or secondary, but must be from a legitimate source (i.e., not just Wikipedia, you need the actual link). If you use additional articles or sources to support your paper, also cite them as needed at the end of the paper. PLEASE NOTE: citations do NOT count to the 3-page limit (i.e., do not give me a 2-page reference list attached to a 1-page paper). .

The State of the Science in Practice The phrase evidence-based practice may be most often thought of as a clinical reference; however, research evidence is applicable in every specialty area. What types of research evidence support your work environment? How does research evidence inform your practice? Now, how current do you think the science is that underlies your practice? How current is the evidence that supports your specialty practice guidelines? To prepare: Bring to mind an issue related to your practice. You may use the issue you are exploring for your EBP Project, or another current issue in your specialty area. If possible, examine practices and/or practice guidelines established to address your selected issue and determine how current the evidence is that supports them. Using the Walden Library, locate recently published articles that discuss research translated into evidence that applies to your selected practice issue. If you are unable to locate current articles (within the last five years), use the Internet to find evidence-based practice articles on this topic. Consider the following questions: How current is the science that supported the practice or practice guidelines? What new evidence has emerged since the practice guidelines were crafted and adopted? By tomorrow 09/11/18 12 by 10 pm, write a minimum of 550 words in APA format with at least 3 scholarly references less than 5 years old. Include the level one header as numbered below: Post a cohesive scholarly response that addresses the following: 1) Discuss the state of the scientific underpinnings that relate to your selected issue. (see my PIICOT question at the bottom of this page). 2) How current is the science that supported the practice or practice guidelines? 3) What new evidence has emerged since the practice guidelines were crafted and adopted? Provide two examples that support your assessment. Required Readings White, K. M., Dudley-Brown, S., & Terharr, M. F. (2016). Translation of evidence into nursing and health care practice (2nd ed.).

Your response to your classmates must be substantive. Share ideas, explore differences, and think critically about your classmates’ posts. Bring in information from your textbook, classroom resources or other credible sources that you find to contribute to the discussion. You are invited to share relevant audio, video, or images in your responses. You must cite and reference any sources you use, even in your responses to your classmates. PEER RESPONSE: The second source by Jay Hancock is a popular source since it offers a report of the issue in question: employees' privacy in relation to the wellness program (UC Santa Cruz University, n.d.). In addition, it features public opinion on the topic of discussion. For instance, the report's author includes Ray Hunt's view, president of the Houston police department, about giving their information to healthcare providers (Hancock, 2015). Furthermore, the article is not peer-reviewed, like in a scholarly paper, since it is just edited by its editor and published. Both the articles have their specific audiences. The first article by Ajunwa et al. (2016) is a scholarly article is written, targeting scholars. The report is written mainly for academic purposes and for academicians who mostly find the results helpful to further their research on the same topic or in a related field. The audiences are the specialists and researchers who are peers to the research’s contributors (Morehead State University, 2015). With this audience, the language in the articles is topic-specific, such that it only reflects the topic under discussion, utilizing vocabulary related. The organization of the article is formal and orderly, with the subtopics arranged in chronological order. Images may be present, but only if they represent something about the topic. As a popular article, the second article targets the general audience and readers since they usually entertain, inform, and persuade individuals about a particular matter (Morehead State University, 2015). The audience, in most cases, is not specialized, but the general public is looking to be informed about the current events and issues, which may include sports, politics, and culture. The article's organization lacks order since the author is not guided. The language is not formal but chosen to suit the reader and the writer. Images are primarily used with no direct connection to the topic. The two articles have different levels of credibility. The first article, which is a scholarly source, is more credible because they have been through a review process that is rigorous and comprehensive by scholars and specialists who have the knowledge and expertise on the topic under discussion (Elmhurst University, 2020). Features making it credible include past literature about the subject and supporting documents cited and forming the reference section of the article. An example of the cited source is in use where Ajunwa et al. says that it is not yet defined if the .

Rough Draft Due: April 19th, 2017 Final Draft Due: May 3rd, 2017 FORMAT AND REQUIREMENTS Rough draft: 3-4 pages double-spaced, Times New Roman 12pt font, 1-inch margins, no cover page. Final Draft: 5-6 pages double spaced, Times New Roman 12pt font, 1-inch margins, no cover page In “Being WEIRD,” Ethan Watters looks at the work of social scientist Joseph Henrich, whose research challenged long-held beliefs that humans share inherent psychological traits. Henrich’s study of the “Ultimatum game” outside the industrial West showed that thinking and decision-making processes are heavily shaped by culture; culture shapes how people perceive the world around them, as well as their relationship to it, maybe even more than originally assumed. Heinrich's research paper, co-authored with Steven Heine and Ara Norenzayan, finds that Americans are significantly overrepresented in all kinds of scientific studies while also being the most “weird” (by which Henrich et al. mean Western, Educated, Industrialized, Rich and Democratic). The research by Henrich and his colleagues put culture at the front of all kinds of experimental human research: as Watters puts it, “if human cognition is shaped by cultural ideas and behavior, it can’t be studied without taking into account what those ideas and behaviors are and how they are different from place to place” (499). Watter’s “Being WEIRD” Contributes to the field of science, most specifically anthropology and psychology, in many ways. His essay could be used as a starting point for analyzing how specific aspects of American culture affect its citizens’ psyches and decisionmaking. Assignment Objectives: For this paper, you will choose ONE aspect of American culture and use Watters' "Being WEIRD," to form an argumentative analysis of how this cultural aspect affects individuals in the United States. You should include at least one reference to another text we have read as a class thus far. CRITERIA FOR EVALUATION: Argument: Argument directly and fully answers the prompt; is clearly stated early in the paper; is original, compelling and logical, avoiding absolute claims. Evidence: Appropriate amount of relevant, accurate, and justifiably interpreted quotation. Quotations are thoroughly introduced, explained, analyzed, and connected to argument/other texts. Possible counter-arguments are considered. Organization: Paragraphs maintain argumentative focus, exclude extraneous information, appear in a logical order, and transition smoothly.

Then, select two (2) funds that you would apply for based on the scenario. Provide a rationale for your selection. Imagine that you are the director of homeland security for a state where several high-risk terrorism targets are located. There is a high probability of hazardous material incidents and you have identified credible threats associated with the emerging sovereign citizens’ movement. Your state agency is well prepared by having response units in place. However, you don’t have the funds to properly outfit all possible response units for each of the possible threats. Your agency is eligible to receive federal grant funds and you have been tasked with researching and writing the grant proposal. Over the last few years, potential pandemics have gained increased attention among law enforcement professionals at both the state and local levels.

Read the scenario shown below and discuss: a. What stage of group development was the group in? b. What are the leader’s tasks in this stage? c. Using Hersey and Blanchard’s Situational Leadership Theory, explain what style of ledership Ramila Zamora should have used given the current situation. Why? Scenario for Question 4 Ramila Zamora looked forward to her recent promotion to management and was looking forward to her transfer within the large county hospital to another nursing unit. She was enthusiastic and hopeful about working together with other nurses to improve patient care through effective teamwork. She felt that she was well prepared to lead and supervise and was grateful for the opportunity. Ms. Zamora was provided very little information about her predecessor and knew less about her subordinates. She was stymied and baffled about the behavior of the nursing staff during her first team meeting. Ms. Zamora introduced herself to the group and with what she thought was great enthusiasm, distributed her agenda and immediately began to delegate tasks to the team members. She noticed that three of the five members began to look at each other and roll their eyes. As she continued to read the list of responsibilities, designating team members to the various tasks, two members got up and began pouring coffee and speaking softly to each other. Ms. Zamora was exasperated. She told them that the meeting was over and that she did not want to take any more time away from their jobs then was necessary.

Read the scenario and answer the questions that follow: Bobby Yurkanin’s 84-year-old father had Alzheimer’s disease. For nearly nine years, Bobby lived with his father, meeting the elder Yurkanins’s needs 24 hours per day, seven days per week. In the years prior to his father’s diagnosis, Bobby had also cared for his mother through her struggle with terminal cancer. Friends describe Bobby as a dedicated caregiver who patiently helped his father through episodes of wandering, combativeness, sudden mood swings, and public disrobing. Neighbors and friends reported occasionally hearing Bobby yell or curse at his father in frustration, but nobody had witnessed physical violence. Those familiar with the Yurkanin family history claim that Bobby, an only child, experienced a difficult and traumatic childhood. His father was an alcoholic who reportedly abused Bobby, his mother, and his grandmother. In addition, Bobby’s mother suffered frequent psychotic episodes related to a mental disorder. Bobby eventually left the tumultuous home, finished college, spent time in law school, and started a paralegal business. In the late 1990s Bobby returned home to care for his ailing mother. Following Mrs. Yurkanin’s death, Bobby and his father sold their New Jersey home and moved to a condominium in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. It was on a visit to a Florida beach that Bobby witnessed another episode of his father’s public disrobing. Although witness accounts vary, it appears that an exasperated Bobby dragged his father into waist deep water in an attempt to put his father’s shorts back on. The elder Yurkanin fought Bobby and during the struggle the 84-year-old man’s head went under water. Witnesses report that Bobby eventually pulled his father out of the water but are unsure whether or not Bobby (a skilled life guard) performed CPR once on the sand. However, many witnesses report that Bobby resisted any calls to 911 and refused an ambulance for his father. The next day, Mr. Yurkanin was pronounced dead. An autopsy listed drowning as the cause of death. Several days later, Bobby was arrested on charges of first-degree murder. Discuss this case in relation to elder abuse and neglect, parricide, eldercide, and the cycle of violence .

Do no additional research on the topics other than using a dictionary. [NEW] The Controversy: Does fracking contribute to global warming? Passage 1. Pro: from "Fracking Contributes to Global Warming" by Louis W. Allstadt The fracking that's going on right now is the real wake-up call on just what extreme lengths are required to pull oil or gas out of the ground now that most of the conventional reservoirs have been exploited—at least those that are easy to access. First of all you have to look at what is conventional oil and gas. That was pretty much anything that was produced until around 2000. It's basically a process of drilling down through a cap rock, an impervious rock that has trapped oil and gas beneath it. And once you're into that reservoir— which is really not a void, it’s porous rock—the natural pressure of the gas will push up the gas and oil. Now what's happened is that the prospect of finding more of those conventional reservoirs, particularly on land and in the places that have been heavily explored like the US and Europe and the Middle East just is very, very small. And the companies have pretty much acknowledged that. All of them talk about the need to go to either nonconventional shale or tight sand drilling or to go into deeper and deeper waters or to go into really hostile Arctic regions and possibly Antarctic regions. Both the horizontal drilling and fracturing have been around for a long time. The industry will tell you this over and over again—they've been around for 60 years, things like that. That is correct. What's different is the volume of fracking fluids and the volume of flowback that occurs in these wells. It is 50 to 100 times more than what was used in the conventional wells. The other [difference] is that the rock above the target zone is not necessarily impervious the way it was in the conventional wells. And to me that last point is at least as big as the volume. The industry will tell you that the mile or two between the zone that's being fracked is not going to let anything come up. But there are already cases where the methane gas has made it up into the aquifers and atmosphere. Sometimes through old well bores, sometimes through natural fissures in the rock. What we don't know is just how much gas is going to come up over time. It's a point most people haven't gotten. It's not just what's happening today. We're opening up channels for the gas to creep up to the surface and into the atmosphere. And methane is a much more potent greenhouse gas in the short term—less than 100 years—than carbon dioxide.

Read the passage below and answer the questions that follow. Courage to Speak “Any volunteers?” Ms. Chavez scanned the class. Ming slouched farther down in her seat. “Come on now, you’ll all have to interview someone sometime this year. No one wants to go first? Okay, I’ll just have to choose someone.” I am an ant, she won’t notice me, Ming thought. “Ming, why don’t you go first? Come on up and pick a name out of a hat.” Ms. Chavez shook the slips of paper around in the hat. Ming dragged herself up to the front of the room. She drew out a slip of paper. “Mrs. Russo,” Ming whispered hoarsely. “Great, the librarian! You’ll have a fine time interviewing her. Now just remember to ask her the questions we came up with, record her answers, and then you can present them next week.” Ms. Chavez cheered as Ming quickly returned to her seat. Ming knew Mrs. Russo was very nice. She had helped Ming use the computer to find science articles last week. Ming knew she could interview Mrs. Russo. It was the class presentation afterward that she dreaded. Even back home in China, Ming had hated speaking in front of the class. Here in the United States, it was worse. She spoke slowly and with a thick accent. Ming sighed and packed up her books. She had a free period next, so she might as well get the interview part completed. Ming found Mrs. Russo in the reference section of the library. “Hi, Ming!” Mrs. Russo said cheerfully. “Need more articles on chimpanzees this week?” “No, I need to interview you,” Ming said quietly. She suddenly felt shy. Why had Mrs. Chavez given this assignment? “Oh, an interview for what? The school paper?” Mrs. Russo asked. “No. For Mrs. Chavez’s ESL class,” Ming whispered. “Sure, ask away! I’ll just keep stacking these books if you don’t mind,” Mrs. Russo replied, turning to the shelves. Ming felt relieved. It was much easier to interview Mrs. Russo’s back. “Are you American?” Ming asked. “Yes… I mean, I was born in Argentina, but I moved here when I was 25. I became an American citizen. Most of my family still lives in Argentina. My husband and our children live here. I am like all Americans, multicultural,” Mrs. Russo laughed. “Is English your first language?” Ming asked. “No, Spanish is,” Mrs. Russo replied. “What does the American Dream mean to you?” Ming asked. “In Argentina, my husband and I couldn’t make enough money to support our family. We knew that we could in the United States. We also knew we’d have to give up being near our family. The American Dream is not perfect. It takes courage and sacrifices, but it is worth it.” Mrs. Russo turned to Ming. Ming smiled. It takes courage not to act like an ant. She understood why Ms. Chavez had given this assignment. She could find the courage to share what she had learned about Mrs. Russo in front of the class. 1. Why does Ming slouch down? (1 point) She doesn't want to get chosen first. She doesn.

Read the passage below and answer the 4 questions at the end. Dorothy’s Way IN THE CLASSIC STORY OF “THE WIZARD OF OZ,” DOROTHY ILLUSTRATES A NEW KIND OF LEADER. SHE INVITES HER FRIENDS ON A JOURNEY, HELPS THEM DISCOVER THEIR GIFTS, ENCOURAGES THEM AND WALKS WITH THEM RATHER THAN INSISTING ON BEING UP FRONT. SHE DOESN’T HAVE ALL THE ANSWERS, BUT SHE GETS THEM TO THEIR GOAL. One of my favorite memories as a kid was watching the movie The Wizard of Oz on television. It came on every year. We would pop popcorn and sit around as a family watching Dorothy, the scarecrow, the tin man and the cowardly lion leave the munchkins in the Land of Oz and make their way to the Emerald City. I still enjoy the movie. It’s a classic. Today, however, I watch it through a different lens. I sat with my own kids a few years ago and learned all kinds of new things from Dorothy—as I watched the film from a leadership perspective. (I know it sounds crazy, but I seem to find leadership principles in almost every movie I see, including Dumb and Dumber and Napoleon Dynamite!) This time, my leadership discovery came from a very ordinary girl from Kansas who would not claim to be a leader at all. As I observe trends in our culture, it seems to me that there is a cry for a new kind of leader today. We have moved through various leadership styles over the last fifty years, and many of them can be seen in this classic movie. Reflect on the characters in the movie for a moment, and note the three kinds of leaders in it: 1. THE WICKED WITCH OF THE WEST She has her cronies, but they follow because she forces them to do so. She leads from manipulation or coercion. In fact, when she melts, her followers celebrate. 2. THE WIZARD OF OZ He is the all-powerful leader who leads through intimidation and superiority. He is all-wise and all-powerful—the kind of leader we all tend to imagine is the best one for the job. 3. DOROTHY She is an unlikely leader who doesn’t have all the answers but invites her friends on a journey, helps them discover their gifts and walks with them rather than insisting on being up front. At first glance, Dorothy appears all wrong as a model of leadership. I am certain she never felt like she was a leader. She doesn’t fit the gender stereotype, and she’s quite young. Instead of being a person who has all the solutions and knows exactly what to do next—she is herself on a journey, a seeker, often bewildered and vulnerable. Yet she is determined to get her team—made up of a scarecrow, a tin man and a cowardly lion—to the wizard, where they can find what they’re looking for. Armed with this resolve, she walks down the yellow brick road on a journey of discovery with her newfound friends. No one expects her to have all the answers. They don’t want a “sage on the stage,” but a “guide on the side” to help them reach their goal. Let’s contrast Dorothy with the Great Wizard himself. Frequently, many of us avoid leadership positions because we hold an image of a leade.

Organizations are already collecting vast amounts of data from a myriad of sources. Why should they add location data to the analytical mix? The most common uses of analytics and reporting are based on business data. Location information doesn’t get much attention. But all business has to happen somewhere. The Internet of Things has created connected cars, connected people, and analytics at the edge, and this technology is making business rethink some use cases. Location will be an important aspect for these kinds of things. Driverless cars, Uber, drones—all are evolving, and real technologies and business models are being built around them. These all rely on location as an important facet, thus making location an important aspect of business analysis and business data that organizations need to pay more attention to. 2. What business issues have you seen being solved by using location analytics? Some are covered above. Add to that, business scenarios where location is a primary factor, such as property insurance companies trying to determine the price of insurance based on location, healthcare organizations trying to understand the types of services needed based on the demographic data of a city or location, or new transportation companies, like Uber and Lyft, analyzing and understanding the use of their servic.

Would a man have the same experience as Treeholm? 4. Are any of your predictions about her management style holding up? 250 WORDS CASE 13 Selecting the New Vice President Note: Please read only those parts identified by your instructor. Do not read ahead. Part A When the new president at Mid-West U took over, it was only a short time before the incumbent vice president announced his resignation. Unfortunately, there was no one waiting in the wings, and a hiring freeze prevented a national search from commencing. Many faculty leaders and former administrators suggested that the president appoint Jennifer Treeholm, Associate Vice President for Academic Affairs, as interim. She was an extremely popular person on campus and had ten years of experience in the role of associate vice president. She knew everyone and everything about the campus. Treeholm, they assured him, was the natural choice. Besides, she deserved the job. Her devotion to the school was unparalleled, and her energy knew no bounds. The new president, acting on advice from many campus leaders, appointed Treeholm as interim vice president for a term of up to three years. He also agreed that she could be a candidate for the permanent position when the hiring freeze was lifted. Treeholm and her friends were ecstatic. It was high time more women moved into important positions on campus. They went out for dinner to their every-Friday-night watering hole to celebrate and reflect on Treeholm's career. Except for a brief stint outside of academe, Treeholm's entire career had been at Mid-West U. She started out teaching introductory history, then, realizing she wanted to get on the tenure track, went back to school and earned her Ph.D. at Metropolitan U while continuing to teach at Mid-West. Upon completion of her degree, she was appointed as an assistant professor and eventually earned the rank of associate based on her popularity and excellent teaching. Treeholm was well liked, and she devoted her entire life, it seemed, to Mid-West, helping to form the first union, getting grants, writing skits for the faculty club's annual follies, and going out of her way to befriend everyone who needed support. Eventually, Treeholm was elected president of the faculty senate. After serving for two years, she was offered the position of associate vice president. During her ten years as associate vice president, she handled most of the academic complaints, oversaw several committees, wrote almost all of the letters and reports for the vice president, and was even known to run personal errands for the president. People just knew they could count on her. Part B Treeholm's appointment as interim vice president was met with great enthusiasm. Finally the school was getting someone who was “one of their own,” a perso.
