Assignment 1 Victims’ Rights and the Dos and Don’ts of Interviewing.docx
Assignment 1: Victims’ Rights and the Dos and Don’ts of Interviewing Crime Victims
You are a police investigator in Centervale. Recently, there have been complaints from prosecutors, as well as several victims, about the interview techniques used by law enforcement (both first responders and investigators). The prosecution is losing cases because of inadmissible statements made to law enforcement by victims and witnesses in response to improper questioning. Because of their bad experiences early in the investigations, some victims refuse to come to court and testify. There are continuous complaints by victim services specialists that first responders do not provide victims with all their rights as governed by law.
The chief of police in Centervale is concerned about lawsuits and unsatisfied victims and asks you, one of the most experienced detectives of the Centervale Police Department, to attend patrol briefings and train officers in some dos and don'ts of interviewing victims of crime, especially women and children. You are also asked to go over some of the most important victims' rights that could cause the most legal trouble if not followed properly by the Centervale Police Department.
You realize that a proper interviewing lesson could take eight to sixteen hours, and you know law enforcement must strictly follow numerous victims' rights, but you have been given only fifteen to twenty minutes in which to teach, what you feel is the most important information.

Assignment 1 The Problems of Evil and SufferingAll human bein.docx
Assignment 1: The Problems of Evil and Suffering
All human beings encounter pain and suffering in life. This can present some difficult questions to organized religions.
On some level, all religions answer fundamental questions of human existence, including, "why are we here?" Pain and suffering complicate these basic questions of human existence, whether the religion is monotheistic, polytheistic, or atheistic.
Some people endure much more pain and suffering than others. Why is this so? What is the origin of suffering? Is evil external or internal? Does it have any meaning? How should we respond to it?
Even more difficult is the problem of moral evil: some people deliberately cause other people to suffer. Why? If there is meaning in the universe, and especially if the universe is ruled by a beneficent deity, how can this be?
Write an essay of 1,000 words that examines the basic positions of each of the five religious traditions considering these human questions
In your essay, address the following questions:
How does
each
religion respond to the problems of evil and suffering?
How are those responses similar?
In what ways do the responses differ?
What factors account for these differences?
Which way of addressing evil is the most similar to your own? What role does reason play in your personal understanding of evil? How does that overlap or contradict with the major religions' uses of reason in explaining evil?

Assignment 1 the sociological viewpoint toward social problems (Due.docx
Assignment 1: the sociological viewpoint toward social problems (Due Week 2)
Overview
One of the most crucial components to this course concerns addressing social problems in society from a sociological viewpoint as opposed to a strictly policy-oriented, psychological, or criminal justice viewpoint. Although many different viewpoints in social science are valid and have a lot of importance, it is equally important for us to understand how sociology looks at the nature of social problems in society today. This paper will enable us to explore why certain social problems seem to be regarded as more significant than others. Our job will be in defining the sociological viewpoint, and choosing one social problem that we think is of high importance. We will build upon the topic we choose in this paper for our second and third writing assignments.
Instructions
Construct a 2-4 page paper that fully explores each of the following areas:
1)
Citing our textbook material, explain how the sociological approach toward social problems differs from other approaches. Why are certain problems considered significant and others are not?
2)
Next, choose one social problem that exists in society that you think is particularly serious, and explain it in sociological terms. This social problem should be measurable in some statistical way. (Is it increasing, and if so, how? Among which groups of people, and for how long, etc.?)
3)
What might be one important way in which the social problem is currently being addressed in society?
4)
Please define and identify at least four concepts from our text relevant to your chosen social problem.
5)
Analyze the way in which these concepts help us better understand the nature of the social problem you are discussing.
Don’t forget to include proper APA-style citation and reference. (Assignment One is worth 10% of the total grade.)

Assignment 1 White-Collar CrimeVictor and John work as software i.docx
Assignment 1: White-Collar Crime
Victor and John work as software installers and program developers in the computer division of the Social Security Administration (SSA). SSA purchased software which was customarily installed by both Victor and John. SSA was licensed to make copies of the software for use by their employees during their employment, but not for resale to the public or for profit.
Victor and John are also partners in a small computer business. Victor started using some SSA software in his business, without the knowledge or consent of SSA. He told John that he would use it only for testing and not for profit. However, the "testing" of the software generated profit for their business. John did not want to continue using the software without SSA consent. Victor believed the SSA would not grant permission and convinced John not to disclose their secret use of the software.
Research business law in regard to software use using your textbook, the Argosy University online library resources, and the Internet. Based on the facts of the case and research, respond to the following questions:
What white-collar crimes, if any, did Victor and John commit? Explain each individual's crime separately.
What ethical leadership and management violation has Victor committed? Explain.
What legal protection is available to John if he decides to inform the SSA about the software use? Explain.

Assignment 1 Should the U.S. Convert to a Zero Personal Income Ta.docx
Assignment 1: Should the U.S. Convert to a Zero Personal Income Tax?
In a recent news article located at
http://www.nbcnews.com/business/economy/heres-where-your-federal-income-tax-dollars-go-f654971
NBC News reported that the U.S. Government spends $3.6 trillion per year to fund Social Security, Medicare, homeland defense and safety, education, transportation, and the interest on debt obligations. In spite of the services and benefits that the government provides, many taxpayers dread paying income taxes but consider them a necessary evil. Consequently, there is much debate about the inequities contained within the tax code, due to tax shelters and tax credits provided to some taxpayers which thereby increase the tax burden on others.
Using the internet, research at least two (2) countries that have a zero income tax rate.
Write a four to five (4-5) page paper in which you:
Analyze the way in which the two (2) countries that you have researched provide services and benefits to its citizens without collecting personal income taxes.

Assignment 1 Political Belief Profile The relationship betwee.docx
Assignment 1: Political Belief Profile
The relationship between public opinion and political participation raises many questions associated with how the public thinks, why they behave in the manner they do, and what outcomes in the form of ideological expressions will probably tak
e place because of citizens’ behavior in the political scenario. Essentially, “who, what, and where” issues again surface in response to evaluation of political socialization.
Political socialization may be expressed in a singular way, depending on the issue of concern, but it is not derived from any single impact throughout the life of American voters and nonvoters. Qualities and conditions such as gender, race, economic status, education, and religion impact voter behaviors. Indeed, whether or not an individual votes, or takes part in any of the varied available options for participation, is closely allied with the political socialization of individuals and even entire socioeconomic groups.
The Political Compass Web site (
http://www.politicalcompass.org
) offers a self-test that helps you analyze your personal political views on what the test authors call a “left–right” scale. Take the test and review your results to see where you stand on the economic scale and the social scale. Discuss the results using the following questions:
Did your “test result” match what you thought were your political beliefs?
What is “politically correct” thinking? Give examples of what might be considered “politically correct” and “politically incorrect.”
To what degree do you think your values and beliefs represent the norms, values, and traditions of society? Define your answer using the following Likert scale—extremely common, common, moderately common, uncommon, and extremely uncommon.

The Bill of Rights finds its roots in documents such as the British Magna Carta of 1215 AD. It was one of the first documents that provided the common man independence from a monarch. It did imply that the federal government’s law dominated all others; however, it gave each state control of any laws outside of those reserved to the federal government. The Bill of Rights acts as a blueprint that every individual state uses to protect the rights of individual citizens. In this assignment, you will utilize the various concepts found in the Bill of Rights to provide the foundation of the various sections of the question.
Write a four to six (4-6) page paper in which you:
Compare and contrast two (2) of the sources of rights and fundamental principles found in the United States’ legal system as outlined by the text.

Assignment 1 LASA 2 InterviewingInterrogating for the Robbery at .docx
Assignment 1: LASA 2: Interviewing/Interrogating for the Robbery at the Centervale Grocery Emporium
While on patrol with the Centervale Police Department (CPD) you are dispatched to a robbery in progress at the Centervale grocery store. You arrive to find the suspects have fled the scene. There are several witnesses inside the store including customers and two store employees. Obviously shaken, they are huddled together discussing the robbery. You know that taking witnesses' statements is a critical piece of any investigation because witnesses often hold valuable information about the incident and critical evidence. Further, witnesses also have first-hand knowledge that can be helpful in narrowing the scope towards apprehending a suspect and the eventual successful prosecution of a case. After calling in a Be on the lookout (BOLO) for the suspects and their vehicle, you proceed by separating the three witnesses inside the store in order to appropriately conduct interviews: Cashier—Connie Cousins; Maintenance manager—Larry Sweeney; and Customer—Sally Frederickson.
Connie Cousins, who is noticeably upset, shares that she has seen these culprits in the store before. She states, "They have been here before, one of them knows Larry, they seemed to know right where we keep our cash and who may be able to retrieve it, me. The older guy had a huge gun; he put it right in my face. He's the one that drove the vehicle that they came in."
Sally Frederickson, a customer, states, "I've never seen these guys before. They had a gun and seemed to want to shoot someone. I think I can identify them if I see them again, hey, I heard one of them call that guy (pointing to Larry) by his name. Larry right?"
During your investigation you develop a lead that another witness, Larry; the maintenance person of the store, is related to one of the suspects. Larry Sweeney is 80 years old and he appears mentally challenged. You learn from a fellow employee that Larry's mental capacity is below the fifth grade level. You know that it is crucial that Larry's mental capacity, his age, as well as his potential relationship to one of the suspects are factors that must be considered throughout the duration of the interview process.
During your investigation you notice some communication challenges as well as some inconsistencies between witness statements. Based on your findings, you begin to theorize that Larry Sweeney might have been involved in the crime. Because you have no probable cause you continue with the investigation by gathering important information to help determine who was involved and whose level of involvement meets the legal elements in order to be appropriately charged.
Two hours after the incident, a fellow police officer spots a vehicle sitting at a stoplight that matches the description of the suspect's vehicle. The officer observes two individuals sitting in the front driver's seat and front passenger's seat of the vehicle. Based on the information in the B.
Assignment 1 LASA 2 Setting Minds at EaseHeres What Happened . .docx
Assignment 1: LASA 2: Setting Minds at Ease
Here's What Happened . . .
On the first of May this year, Centervale Police Officer Smith arrested Rosie Greene, a 15-year-old, for stealing several items from a local convenience store. This was just one of several incidents Rosie has been involved in this year. The majority of Rosie's incidents have been centered on her schoolwork, fights, loitering, and truancy.
The principal has suspended Rosie several times from school. However, Rosie continues to engage in delinquent behaviors. Rosie's arrest has been widely publicized in the newspaper and on television because Rosie ran from the police after they caught up with her while being truant from school and smoking behind a pizza shop.
You have been working with Centervale's City Government to propose a plan to reduce juvenile delinquency and prevent further incidents of younger children becoming involved in delinquent behaviors as they grow up.
The principal has asked if you would help the School Board understand more about juvenile delinquency, the juvenile justice system, and particularly Rosie Greene's situation to help them appropriately respond to parent's questions and create a new policy. He has asked you to prepare a presentation for the Centervale City School Board's next meeting.
Here's What You Need to Do . . .
You are required to develop a 10–15 slide PowerPoint presentation with script for the Centervale City School Board. Use APA in-text citations and external sources that are referred to on a corresponding references slide and include the following:
Differentiate between the juvenile and adult justice systems by first defining the terms
crime
,
delinquent act
, and
status offense
. Because of the School Board’s familiarity with Rosie's juvenile case, discuss the nature of her offenses by identifying which ones are crimes, delinquent acts, or status offenses.
Explain to the School Board the origin of juvenile rights and the process of juveniles' rights while in custody. Address the concerns raised by the school board member who wondered what would happen to Rosie because she ran from the police. Did Rosie's choice change her rights?
Compare and contrast juvenile rights to the rights of an adult under similar circumstances. Use Rosie's case to illustrate to the School Board the similarities and differences of the juvenile and adult justice systems.
Summarize the juvenile courtroom process using Rosie's case. Include Rosie's rights, and identify the courtroom parties who will be present: lawyers, judge, etc. Predict a probable series of events for Rosie's case and describe how the outcome might be different if Rosie were an adult.
Integrate in your presentation to the School Board your proposed Juvenile Delinquency Reduction Plan from LASA 1. Describe how the plan might address one or more of the issues presented in Rosie's situation. Explain the steps in your plan that the School Board may find helpful in their plight to reduce juven.
Assignment 1 LASA 2 Rehabilitation and Community CorrectionsOn.docx
Assignment 1: LASA 2: Rehabilitation and Community Corrections
One of the problems that you will face in the real world is that of public perception of rehabilitation and community corrections programs. Intermediate sanctions are mechanisms and programs that relate to the supervision of criminal offenders not under strict confinement or incarceration. Gaining support from the public for these programs requires well-documented presentations that are accessible to general audiences and can drive powerful support and ultimately funding for rehabilitation and community corrections programs.
Instructions:
You have been granted an internship at the Centervale Corrections Authority. Your first task is to research and draft a presentation that will be used to educate citizens and to gain support for funding rehabilitation and intermediate sanctions, better known as community corrections programs.
In order to make this accessible for long-term use, you are instructed to create a presentation that will not only educate the local citizens but build their understanding of the benefits of rehabilitation and ultimately gain support for community corrections programs in Centervale. Keep in mind that you are soliciting the support of the citizens and that you seek their suggestions and recommendations.
Some of the rehabilitation and community corrections issues you will examine include rehabilitation issues associated with gender, culture, race, ethnicity, gang activity, and criminal organizations within the prison system. You will recommend rehabilitation and community corrections programs that will improve the success rate for rehabilitation in Centervale's prison populations. Your presentation will be an 8- to 10-slide Microsoft PowerPoint presentation with script and will include the following:
Analyze the role of rehabilitation in corrections and communicate in a manner that can be understood by the citizens of Centervale.
Analyze research regarding rehabilitation in corrections and support your presentation with empirical research.
Examine the difficulty of implementing rehabilitation programs in the correctional environment and include expected timelines, outcomes, and assessments.
Examine the rehabilitation issues associated with gender, culture, race, ethnicity, gang activity, and criminal organizations within prison systems.
Recommend rehabilitation and community corrections programs that will improve the success rate for rehabilitation in Centervale's prison populations and include opportunities to solicit citizens' suggestions and recommendations for community corrections to gain their support and associated funding.

and imagine it has made a strategic decision to start doing business in China. Using the discussion on page 192 of your textbook as a template, do the following:
Develop a brief country risk assessment.
Determine the political, economic, social, and capital risks associated with doing business in China. What are the most important factors to consider? Why?
After years of keeping the Yuan pegged to the US dollar, the Chinese have recently allowed it to float freely in international currency exchange rate markets. Many economists believe that keeping the Yuan pegged to the US dollar has caused it to be undervalued by 30 to 50 percent. Discuss what impact a revaluation of the Yuan might have on US multinationals doing business there, on China’s exports, and on Chinese citizens’ standard of living. What impact would a revaluation have on Chinese inflation and on purchasing power parity? Explain.

Assignment 1 White-Collar CrimeVictor and John work as software i.docx
Assignment 1: White-Collar Crime
Victor and John work as software installers and program developers in the computer division of the Social Security Administration (SSA). SSA purchased software which was customarily installed by both Victor and John. SSA was licensed to make copies of the software for use by their employees during their employment, but not for resale to the public or for profit.
Victor and John are also partners in a small computer business. Victor started using some SSA software in his business, without the knowledge or consent of SSA. He told John that he would use it only for testing and not for profit. However, the "testing" of the software generated profit for their business. John did not want to continue using the software without SSA consent. Victor believed the SSA would not grant permission and convinced John not to disclose their secret use of the software.
Research business law in regard to software use using your textbook, the Argosy University online library resources, and the Internet. Based on the facts of the case and research, respond to the following questions:
What white-collar crimes, if any, did Victor and John commit? Explain each individual's crime separately.
What ethical leadership and management violation has Victor committed? Explain.
What legal protection is available to John if he decides to inform the SSA about the software use? Explain.

Assignment 1 Should the U.S. Convert to a Zero Personal Income Ta.docx
Assignment 1: Should the U.S. Convert to a Zero Personal Income Tax?
In a recent news article located at
http://www.nbcnews.com/business/economy/heres-where-your-federal-income-tax-dollars-go-f654971
NBC News reported that the U.S. Government spends $3.6 trillion per year to fund Social Security, Medicare, homeland defense and safety, education, transportation, and the interest on debt obligations. In spite of the services and benefits that the government provides, many taxpayers dread paying income taxes but consider them a necessary evil. Consequently, there is much debate about the inequities contained within the tax code, due to tax shelters and tax credits provided to some taxpayers which thereby increase the tax burden on others.
Using the internet, research at least two (2) countries that have a zero income tax rate.
Write a four to five (4-5) page paper in which you:
Analyze the way in which the two (2) countries that you have researched provide services and benefits to its citizens without collecting personal income taxes.
For the countries that you have chosen, determine whether or not he U.S. could adopt their taxation model without reducing its total amount of revenue generated by collecting personal income taxes from individuals and business. Justify your response.
Suggest at least three (3) advantages and three (3) disadvantages of the U.S. adopting a zero income tax model. Provide a rationale for your response.
Create a proposal for where the revenue would be derived if the U.S. were to adopt a zero income tax model. In your response, provide specific recommendations concerning the following:
The prosed tax base.
Whether or not tax payers at certain income levels should be exempt from taxations.
The Primary way in which the IRS would calculate the tax rate in order to ensure that the same level of tax revenue would still be collected.
The primary way in which your plan will achieve equity.
Speculate on the primary way in which the federal government could make up any shortfalls if it does not collect its targeted revenue from person income taxes, and ascertain the most significant way in which the U.S. Department of the Treasury, through the IRS, can still adhere to its fiscal and monetary policies. Justify your response.

Assignment 1 Political Belief Profile The relationship betwee.docx
Assignment 1: Political Belief Profile
The relationship between public opinion and political participation raises many questions associated with how the public thinks, why they behave in the manner they do, and what outcomes in the form of ideological expressions will probably tak
e place because of citizens’ behavior in the political scenario. Essentially, “who, what, and where” issues again surface in response to evaluation of political socialization.
Political socialization may be expressed in a singular way, depending on the issue of concern, but it is not derived from any single impact throughout the life of American voters and nonvoters. Qualities and conditions such as gender, race, economic status, education, and religion impact voter behaviors. Indeed, whether or not an individual votes, or takes part in any of the varied available options for participation, is closely allied with the political socialization of individuals and even entire socioeconomic groups.
The Political Compass Web site (
http://www.politicalcompass.org
) offers a self-test that helps you analyze your personal political views on what the test authors call a “left–right” scale. Take the test and review your results to see where you stand on the economic scale and the social scale. Discuss the results using the following questions:
Did your “test result” match what you thought were your political beliefs?
What is “politically correct” thinking? Give examples of what might be considered “politically correct” and “politically incorrect.”
To what degree do you think your values and beliefs represent the norms, values, and traditions of society? Define your answer using the following Likert scale—extremely common, common, moderately common, uncommon, and extremely uncommon.

The Bill of Rights acts as a blueprint that every individual state uses to protect the rights of individual citizens. In this assignment, you will utilize the various concepts found in the Bill of Rights to provide the foundation of the various sections of the question.
Write a four to six (4-6) page paper in which you:
Compare and contrast two (2) of the sources of rights and fundamental principles found in the United States’ legal system as outlined by the text.

Assignment 1 LASA 2 InterviewingInterrogating for the Robbery at .docx
Assignment 1: LASA 2: Interviewing/Interrogating for the Robbery at the Centervale Grocery Emporium
While on patrol with the Centervale Police Department (CPD) you are dispatched to a robbery in progress at the Centervale grocery store. You arrive to find the suspects have fled the scene. There are several witnesses inside the store including customers and two store employees. Obviously shaken, they are huddled together discussing the robbery. You know that taking witnesses' statements is a critical piece of any investigation because witnesses often hold valuable information about the incident and critical evidence. Further, witnesses also have first-hand knowledge that can be helpful in narrowing the scope towards apprehending a suspect and the eventual successful prosecution of a case. After calling in a Be on the lookout (BOLO) for the suspects and their vehicle, you proceed by separating the three witnesses inside the store in order to appropriately conduct interviews: Cashier—Connie Cousins; Maintenance manager—Larry Sweeney; and Customer—Sally Frederickson.
Connie Cousins, who is noticeably upset, shares that she has seen these culprits in the store before. She states, "They have been here before, one of them knows Larry, they seemed to know right where we keep our cash and who may be able to retrieve it, me. The older guy had a huge gun; he put it right in my face. He's the one that drove the vehicle that they came in."
Sally Frederickson, a customer, states, "I've never seen these guys before. They had a gun and seemed to want to shoot someone. I think I can identify them if I see them again, hey, I heard one of them call that guy (pointing to Larry) by his name. Larry right?"
During your investigation you develop a lead that another witness, Larry; the maintenance person of the store, is related to one of the suspects. Larry Sweeney is 80 years old and he appears mentally challenged. You learn from a fellow employee that Larry's mental capacity is below the fifth grade level. You know that it is crucial that Larry's mental capacity, his age, as well as his potential relationship to one of the suspects are factors that must be considered throughout the duration of the interview process.
During your investigation you notice some communication challenges as well as some inconsistencies between witness statements. Based on your findings, you begin to theorize that Larry Sweeney might have been involved in the crime. Because you have no probable cause you continue with the investigation by gathering important information to help determine who was involved and whose level of involvement meets the legal elements in order to be appropriately charged.
Two hours after the incident, a fellow police officer spots a vehicle sitting at a stoplight that matches the description of the suspect's vehicle. The officer observes two individuals sitting in the front driver's seat and front passenger's seat of the vehicle. Based on the information in the B.
Assignment 1 LASA 2 Setting Minds at EaseHeres What Happened . .docx
Assignment 1: LASA 2: Setting Minds at Ease
Here's What Happened . . .
On the first of May this year, Centervale Police Officer Smith arrested Rosie Greene, a 15-year-old, for stealing several items from a local convenience store. This was just one of several incidents Rosie has been involved in this year. The majority of Rosie's incidents have been centered on her schoolwork, fights, loitering, and truancy.
The principal has suspended Rosie several times from school. However, Rosie continues to engage in delinquent behaviors. Rosie's arrest has been widely publicized in the newspaper and on television because Rosie ran from the police after they caught up with her while being truant from school and smoking behind a pizza shop.
You have been working with Centervale's City Government to propose a plan to reduce juvenile delinquency and prevent further incidents of younger children becoming involved in delinquent behaviors as they grow up.
The principal has asked if you would help the School Board understand more about juvenile delinquency, the juvenile justice system, and particularly Rosie Greene's situation to help them appropriately respond to parent's questions and create a new policy. He has asked you to prepare a presentation for the Centervale City School Board's next meeting.
Here's What You Need to Do . . .
You are required to develop a 10–15 slide PowerPoint presentation with script for the Centervale City School Board. Use APA in-text citations and external sources that are referred to on a corresponding references slide and include the following:
Differentiate between the juvenile and adult justice systems by first defining the terms
crime
,
delinquent act
, and
status offense
. Because of the School Board’s familiarity with Rosie's juvenile case, discuss the nature of her offenses by identifying which ones are crimes, delinquent acts, or status offenses.
Explain to the School Board the origin of juvenile rights and the process of juveniles' rights while in custody. Address the concerns raised by the school board member who wondered what would happen to Rosie because she ran from the police. Did Rosie's choice change her rights?
Compare and contrast juvenile rights to the rights of an adult under similar circumstances. Use Rosie's case to illustrate to the School Board the similarities and differences of the juvenile and adult justice systems.
Summarize the juvenile courtroom process using Rosie's case. Include Rosie's rights, and identify the courtroom parties who will be present: lawyers, judge, etc. Predict a probable series of events for Rosie's case and describe how the outcome might be different if Rosie were an adult.
Integrate in your presentation to the School Board your proposed Juvenile Delinquency Reduction Plan from LASA 1. Describe how the plan might address one or more of the issues presented in Rosie's situation. Explain the steps in your plan that the School Board may find helpful in their plight to reduce juven.
Assignment 1 LASA 2 Rehabilitation and Community CorrectionsOn.docx
Assignment 1: LASA 2: Rehabilitation and Community Corrections
One of the problems that you will face in the real world is that of public perception of rehabilitation and community corrections programs. Intermediate sanctions are mechanisms and programs that relate to the supervision of criminal offenders not under strict confinement or incarceration. Gaining support from the public for these programs requires well-documented presentations that are accessible to general audiences and can drive powerful support and ultimately funding for rehabilitation and community corrections programs.
Instructions:
You have been granted an internship at the Centervale Corrections Authority. Your first task is to research and draft a presentation that will be used to educate citizens and to gain support for funding rehabilitation and intermediate sanctions, better known as community corrections programs.
In order to make this accessible for long-term use, you are instructed to create a presentation that will not only educate the local citizens but build their understanding of the benefits of rehabilitation and ultimately gain support for community corrections programs in Centervale. Keep in mind that you are soliciting the support of the citizens and that you seek their suggestions and recommendations.
Some of the rehabilitation and community corrections issues you will examine include rehabilitation issues associated with gender, culture, race, ethnicity, gang activity, and criminal organizations within the prison system. You will recommend rehabilitation and community corrections programs that will improve the success rate for rehabilitation in Centervale's prison populations. Your presentation will be an 8- to 10-slide Microsoft PowerPoint presentation with script and will include the following:
Analyze the role of rehabilitation in corrections and communicate in a manner that can be understood by the citizens of Centervale.
Analyze research regarding rehabilitation in corrections and support your presentation with empirical research.
Examine the difficulty of implementing rehabilitation programs in the correctional environment and include expected timelines, outcomes, and assessments.
Examine the rehabilitation issues associated with gender, culture, race, ethnicity, gang activity, and criminal organizations within prison systems.
Recommend rehabilitation and community corrections programs that will improve the success rate for rehabilitation in Centervale's prison populations and include opportunities to solicit citizens' suggestions and recommendations for community corrections to gain their support and associated funding.

Use the publicly-traded company you chose in
M1 Assignment 3
and imagine it has made a strategic decision to start doing business in China. Using the discussion on page 192 of your textbook as a template, do the following:
Develop a brief country risk assessment.
Determine the political, economic, social, and capital risks associated with doing business in China. What are the most important factors to consider? Why?
After years of keeping the Yuan pegged to the US dollar, the Chinese have recently allowed it to float freely in international currency exchange rate markets. Many economists believe that keeping the Yuan pegged to the US dollar has caused it to be undervalued by 30 to 50 percent. Discuss what impact a revaluation of the Yuan might have on US multinationals doing business there, on China’s exports, and on Chinese citizens’ standard of living. What impact would a revaluation have on Chinese inflation and on purchasing power parity? Explain.
Your paper should be about 2,000 words.

The Medical Reporter
, an online health magazine. The editor asks you to write an 8-10 page feature story about the steps you should take when fraud and abuse cases are reported to a facility. This is very timely as you recently received a call on your “hotline” regarding a potential fraud and abuse issue. The caller indicated that Dr. Greedy was billing for services that had not been provided. You are in danger of losing reimbursement for Medicare and Medicaid programs if this behavior is not stopped. Your feature should address the ethical and moral components that healthcare providers and healthcare facilities face with fraud and abuse issues. Your research should include the following aspects:
How to conduct an investigation. It should include the following elements:
Reviewing the initial complaint: What are the items you should look for in a compliant to determine validity?
Notifying the appropriate upper management of the complaint unless they are implicated in the complaint: What are the steps to take to determine who is involved?
Obtaining additional information as necessary and developing a plan for the investigation: What other items are important to the investigation?
Conducting interviews with staff, residents and/or management: Delineate the types of questions to ask in the interview.
Determining if the allegations are substantiated or unsubstantiated: Identify criteria to determine if substantiated or unsubstantiated.
How to develop a correction action plan. The plan may suggest:
A recommendation for a subsequent audit or follow-up to the complaint and determination of when this is necessary.
A recommendation to refund any overpayments to federal government, insurance company or individual payer and when that may be the best course of action.
