David Hinton in his introduction to the poetry of Li Bai (also known as Li Po) writes, “The most essential quality of Li Po’s work is the way in which wu-wei spontaneity gave shape to his experience of the natural world.” Choose any two poems and analyze the imagery in the poems to show the ways in which wu wei informs Li Bai’s understanding of nature. Assignment needs to be 350 words. (Key points: thesis should connect wu-wei principles and nature as expressed in the poems, the post should focus on the relationship between the poet-narrator and nature) A little bit about wu wei—[One of Taoism’s most important concepts is wu wei , which is sometimes translated as “non-doing” or “non-action.” A better way to think of it, however, is as a paradoxical “Action of non-action.” Wu wei refers to the cultivation of a state of being in which our actions are quite effortlessly in alignment with the ebb and flow of the elemental cycles of the natural world. It is a kind of “going with the flow” that is characterized by great ease and awareness, in which—without even trying—we’re able to respond perfectly to whatever situations arise … The practice of wu wei is the expression of what in Taoism is considered to be the highest form of virtue—one that is in no way premeditated but instead arises spontaneously.] Elizabeth Reninger .

INSTRUCTIONS
This assignment seeks to assess your ability to:
• Critically evaluate and discuss the major developments during 2017 in corporate taxation from the perspective of multinational companies and their auditors, governments and other stakeholders.
• Apply appropriate knowledge, analytical techniques and concepts to problems and issues arising from both familiar and unfamiliar situations;
• Think critically, examine problems and issues from a number of perspectives, challenge viewpoints, ideas and concepts and make well-reasoned judgements;
• Present, discuss and defend ideas, concepts and views effectively through formal language.
Background:
In the final weeks of 2017 a leading tax expert suggested that “a whirlwind of international tax changes has swept the globe”. He also went on to say that for companies operating in Europe there is no end in sight to the pace of change. The final recommendations on base erosion and profit shifting (BEPS) from the OECD have been endorsed by the EU. In fact a number of European governments have already implemented large parts of these proposals ahead of schedule.
The third quarter of the year saw the European Commission in the spotlight with its landmark decision that the technology giant Apple must repay no less than €13 billion of taxes to the Irish government. This ruling was based on the view that the favourable tax treatment was effectively state aid and hence the Irish government had broken EU law. At the same time countries across the world continue to compete by reducing the rate of corporate taxes. Many commentators suggest that the UK government will cut the corporate tax rate to 10% if the country fails to negotiate a trade deal with the European Union as part of the Brexit process. In a separate development earlier in the year the government of Hungary announced it would become the tax haven of Central Europe with a plan to reduce corporation tax to a mere 9%.
Required:
You are to write a report for the Board of Directors of a listed global company that has manufacturing and R&D activities across Europe, Asia, Australasia and America. The report should assume that the directors have detailed knowledge of the group activities but are not taxation specialists. However they would be aware of issues relating to corporate governance, transparency and reputational risks.
The report should cover the following aspects:
Evaluate the major developments that occurred in corporate taxation in 2017 and the issues that may arise in the current year.
Discuss the implications for the group in regard to the relationship with its auditors.
Consider how other stakeholders and non-governmental organisations (NGOs) may be affected by changes in the level of corporate taxes and their possible reaction.
The resources below are on Blackboard and provide an introduction to the topic.

Who StudieS the ASiAn
AmericAn movement?
A Historiographical Analysis
diane c. fujino
The sixties are a stretched-out decade synonymous with political protest. Yet Asian American activism barely registers on any political radar
for a number of reasons, including being conspicuously understudied.
Here, I seek to develop, for the first time, a historiography of the Asian
American Movement (AAM).1 The study focuses on grassroots and
non-institutionalized discourses and practices from the late 1960s, when
longstanding resistance by Asian Americans became characterized as a
“social movement,”2 to the decline of the AAM in the late 1970s.
My analysis generates four periods of study. The first (late 1960s to
mid-1970s) was dominated by activists and activist-scholars produc-
ing knowledge in the zenith of the AAM. The second (late 1970s to late
1980s) represented a vacuum in AAM research. The third (late 1980s to
late 1990s) saw a slow upsurge in AAM scholarship and a greater inclu-
sion of scholarly works and civil rights frameworks. The fourth (2000 to
present) can be seen as the “coming of age”—the adolescence, but not full
maturity—of AAM scholarship, with the greatest number of scholarly
works, a re-emphasis on the radical roots of the AAM, and attention to
Steven Lawson’s “interactive model” that calls for connecting local and
national, social and political issues.3
Unlike historiographies of established fields that focus on books, my
analysis also includes journal articles, book chapters, Ph.D. dissertations,

and Masters’ theses.4 Three types of works are excluded. First, based
on conventional definitions of social movements, this article does not
explore participation in establishment politics, including the electoral
arena.5 Second, it is beyond the scope of this essay to include the rich and
varied novels, poetry, films, music, and other cultural productions created
within and, in turn, generative of the AAM. Third, as is common with
historiographies, this article does not analyze primary-source materials,
including the many vibrant AAM newspapers.6
Five areas of struggle were critical to the 1960s–1970s AAM. First,
Asian Americans of diverse ages helped to transform the Antiwar Move-
ment from its emphasis on saving American lives to exposing racism,
sexism, and capitalism at home and abroad. Activists linked the U.S. war
in Viet.

Who StudieS the ASiAn
AmericAn movement?
A Historiographical Analysis
diane c. fujino
The sixties are a stretched-out decade synonymous with political protest. Yet Asian American activism barely registers on any political radar
for a number of reasons, including being conspicuously understudied.
Here, I seek to develop, for the first time, a historiography of the Asian
American Movement (AAM).1 The study focuses on grassroots and
non-institutionalized discourses and practices from the late 1960s, when
longstanding resistance by Asian Americans became characterized as a
“social movement,”2 to the decline of the AAM in the late 1970s.
My analysis generates four periods of study. The first (late 1960s to
mid-1970s) was dominated by activists and activist-scholars produc-
ing knowledge in the zenith of the AAM. The second (late 1970s to late
1980s) represented a vacuum in AAM research. The third (late 1980s to
late 1990s) saw a slow upsurge in AAM scholarship and a greater inclu-
sion of scholarly works and civil rights frameworks. The fourth (2000 to
present) can be seen as the “coming of age”—the adolescence, but not full
maturity—of AAM scholarship, with the greatest number of scholarly
works, a re-emphasis on the radical roots of the AAM, and attention to
Steven Lawson’s “interactive model” that calls for connecting local and
national, social and political issues.3
Unlike historiographies of established fields that focus on books, my
analysis also includes journal articles, book chapters, Ph.D. dissertations,

and Masters’ theses.4 Three types of works are excluded. First, based
on conventional definitions of social movements, this article does not
explore participation in establishment politics, including the electoral
arena.5 Second, it is beyond the scope of this essay to include the rich and
varied novels, poetry, films, music, and other cultural productions created
within and, in turn, generative of the AAM. Third, as is common with
historiographies, this article does not analyze primary-source materials,
including the many vibrant AAM newspapers.6
Five areas of struggle were critical to the 1960s–1970s AAM. First,
Asian Americans of diverse ages helped to transform the Antiwar Move-
ment from its emphasis on saving American lives to exposing racism,
sexism, and capitalism at home and abroad. Activists linked the U.S. war
in Viet.

Page 2 of 2Create a Database
The following assignment is based on the business scenario for which you created both an entity-relationship diagram and a normalized database design in Week 2.
For this assignment, you will create multiple related tables that match your normalized database design. In other words, you will implement a physical design (an actual, usable database) based on a logical design.
Refer to the linked W3Schools.com articles “SQL CREATE TABLE Statement,” “SQL PRIMARY KEY Constraint,” “SQL FOREIGN KEY Constraint,” and “SQL INSERT INTO Statement” for help in completing this assignment.
Note: In the industry, even the most carefully thought out database designs can contain mistakes. Feel free to correct in your tables any mistakes you notice in your normalized database design. Also, note that in Microsoft® Access®, you follow the steps below to launch the SQL editor:
Figure 1. To create a SQL query in Microsoft® Access®, begin by clicking the CREATE tab.
To Complete This Assignment:
1. Use the CREATE TABLE statement to create each table in your design. Note that a table in a RDMS corresponds to an entity in an entity-relationship diagram. Recommended tables for this assignment are CUSTOMER, ORDER, ORDER_DETAIL, PRODUCT, EMPLOYEE, and STORE.
2. As part of each CREATE TABLE statement, define all of the columns, or fields, that you want each particular table to contain. Give them short, meaningful names and include constraints; that is, describe what type of data each column (field) is allowed to hold and any other constraints, such as size, range, or uniqueness.
3. Note that any field you marked as a unique identifier in your normalized database design is a key field. Key fields must be described as both UNIQUE and NOT NULL, which means a value must exist for each record and that value must be unique across all records.
4. After you have created all six tables, including relationships between the tables as appropriate (matching the primary key in one table to a foreign key in another table), use the INSERT INTO statement to insert 10 records into each of your tables. You will need to make up the data you insert into your tables. For example, to insert one record into the CUSTOMER table, you will need to invent a customer number, a customer name, and so on—one value for each of the fields you defined for the CUSTOMER table—to insert into the table.
5. To ensure that your INSERT INTO statements succeeded in populating your tables, use the SELECT statement described in Ch. 7, “Introduction to Structured Query Language,” in Database Systems: Design, Implementation, and Management.to retrieve the records you inserted. For example, to see all 10 records you inserted into the CUSTOMER table, you might apply the following SQL statement: SELECT * FROM CUSTOMER;
After you have created all six tables and populated ten records in each table, submit to the Assignment Files tab the database containin.

DB Response 1I agree with the decision to search the house. Ther.docx
DB Response 1
I agree with the decision to search the house. There was reasonable suspicion to believe the fugitive could have been in the home. The homeowner not only consented to the search of the house but requested it for her safety. Complacency kills. In this situation, the officer is very regretful in his decision to conduct a complacent search of the home, and luckily nobody was killed.
My department does not have body cameras, but I still conduct business as if somebody is recording me. We live in a generation of surveillance. You never know when there are hidden cameras, a camera on a business you did not notice, or a cell phone recording from the top floor of a building. We hire police officers with high amounts of integrity because the definition of integrity is doing the right thing even when nobody is looking. I would be lying if I said my grandmother would approve of everything I do on the job. I am most guilty of foul language and it is something that I am working on not doing that. However, I can emphatically say I work with integrity and honesty without a doubt.
I think setting limits on tolerable behavior in regards to sexual and general harassment is appropriate; however, there are too many situations to make a policy for every behavior one could find inappropriate. When it comes to using force again every situation is different but there should be a pretty well laid out policy at departments for when and how an officer should use a certain amount of force. Officers should be trained on de-escalation tactics and alternatives to using force. Tactical training should include strategies to create time, space, and distance, to reduce the likelihood that force will be necessary and should occur in realistic conditions appropriate to the department’s location (U.S. Commission On Civil Rights, 2018).
Philippians 2 verses 3 – 8 is a pretty straightforward verse with great leadership lessons. Be humble, put others before yourself, and be a servant leader.
From the very beginning of any interrogation, the accused has constitutional rights not to speak to police and also to have an attorney present. The Eighth Amendment to the Constitution prohibits cruel and unusual punishments placed upon any persons in the U.S. With these rights in mind I will only go as far as the Constitution allows when interrogating this suspect even if the suspect admits where the child is if the admission was coerced that admission could get thrown out of court. I would never compromise the investigation. There are other ways to find the abducted girl through detective work than just interrogating the suspect. The cost of illegal interrogations is documented in the number of lost prosecutions. Literally, thousands of cases across the country have had to be dismissed because prosecutors could not trust that the evidence provided by police officers was legitimate or the officer had lost credibility as a witness in all cases because of his or her wrongdoing (P.
DB Response prompt ZAKChapter 7, Q1.Customers are expecting.docx
DB Response prompt ZAK
Chapter 7, Q1.
Customers are expecting more from their service providers. Rather than traditionally accepting boilerplate offerings from service providers, customers desire that service providers cater to their requests. Organizations providing services must keep up with the customer’s demand or risk losing business to others who will. Many service providers have been adopting lean principles to accommodate the needs of their customers in successful attempts to decrease waste, increase efficiency, improve customer service and satisfaction (Daft, 2016, p. 275). From online music providers, customers expect music tracks personalized for their tastes. From airlines, customers can expect preflight seat and meal selections. Amazon.com provides custom personalization to a customers’ home pages by placing personally directed advertisements and products which the customer is more likely to order from the company. Amazon book recommendations are personalized to the specific customer and are provided based upon previous books read. With customers expecting customized and catered experiences, companies need to keep up with this demand and embrace mass customization in order to obtain and retain customers.
Chapter 7, Q2.
While many facets of businesses may involve craft technology, it is still important for business schools to teach management. Some businesses which only expect their leaders to gain knowledge and expertise from experience, may be creating a bureaucratic and restricted model for their business. Companies which rely only on internal training for their leaders can miss opportunities from potential leaders coming in from the outside. Business schools which teach management can provide potential leaders with a foundation to draw from. Teaching management can expose students to issues and opportunities experienced by others, not just ones restricted to one specific company. Teaching management from a textbook is just one method of conveying information. Just as one would not necessarily be proficient in piloting a boat from reading a book, a textbook about doing so would provide the student with underlying concepts which could dramatically increase the success of the student when they move to an actual boat. This textbook based training would be further enhanced with some practical experience.
Chapter 8, Q1.
Technology has progressed allowing real time instant messaging and virtual meetings. High level managers can indeed expect technology to allow them to do their jobs with little face-to-face communication, but they should question if that is something they really want to do. There are currently methods available which could be used effectively to communicate with subordinates, employees and stockholders, such as recorded feeds which would be able to reach every associated individual. These however may not provide a sense of personalization from the managers. Leaders in an organization may resort to using tec.

Consumer Brand Metrics Q3 2015
Eater Archetypes:
Brand usage and preferences by consumer segment
The restaurant industry has long relied on demographic factors to
identify and prioritize consumer groups. For example, many
brands currently obsess over attracting Millennials—some
without pausing to consider the variations among consumers
within this demographic cohort. In addition to life stages,
consumer attitudes about health, value, convenience and the
overall role of foodservice in their lives drive significant
differences in preferences and behavior.
With these distinctions in mind, we have updated the Consumer
Brand Metrics (CBM) survey with questions that allow us to
segment consumers into one of seven Eater Archetypes. Each
segment has a distinct psychographic profile, which is outlined in
our recent Consumer Foodservice Landscape. Accordingly, their
patronage of the segments and brands tracked in CBM varies.
This paper explores some differences we can discern after the
initial quarterly results, including the archetypes’ segment usage,
brand patronage and occasion dynamics. Examining CBM data by
Eater Archetype reveals nuances that complement a demographic
profile of a chain’s guests.

Consumer Brand Metrics Q3 2015
Segmenting consumers by psychographic factors, rather than
just demographic characteristics, can lead to a better
understanding of the consumers that matter to your brand and
how to appeal to them.
Key Takeaways
Busy Balancers and Functional Eaters drive usage across
restaurants and convenience stores. Full-service restaurant
(FSR) operators may also consider targeting Foodservice
Hobbyists and Affluent Socializers, as these archetypes
comprise more than a quarter of FSR patrons, on average.
How does foodservice segment usage vary by archetype?
Driven by unique needs and motivations, Eater Archetypes
gravitate to a wide variety of brands. For example,
McDonald’s, Burger King and Whataburger each
disproportionately attract unique archetypes (Habitual
Matures, Bargain Hunters and Functional Eaters,
respectively).
Which chains do each archetype visit most frequently?
Archetypes that patronize the same restaurant may not use
the brand the same way. For example, usage varies by
daypart, with afternoon snacks skewing to Busy Balancers
and late-night meals d.

“Rosenbloom crafted a compelling narrative . . . Students
like Administrative Law for Public Managers because it is
straightforward and easy to understand. I teach a wide range
of students—mid-level managers to students with no work
experience—both are relieved that the content and examples
are easily digestible. It’s an excellent book!”
—Lorenda Ann Naylor, University of Baltimore
“This book presents a profound, as well as comprehensive,
knowledge base of administrative law.”
—Public Administration Review
Administrative Law for Public Managers is an accessible and comprehensive guide to
the fundamentals of administrative law—why we have administrative law, the constitutional
constraints on public administration, and administrative law’s frameworks for rulemaking,
adjudication, enforcement, transparency, and judicial and legislative review. Rosenbloom
explains administrative law from the perspective of administrative practice, emphasizing
how various administrative law provisions promote their underlying goal of improving the fit
between public administration and US democratic-constitutionalism.
The second edition includes more coverage of state administrative law, as well as an
expanded discussion of judicial review. It has also been updated to include the major
statutes, court cases, executive orders, and other major executive initiatives since 2003.
The addition of discussion questions makes this an even more valuable resource for public
administration classrooms and students.
David H. Rosenbloom is Distinguished Professor of Public Administration at American
University. A major contributor to the field and a Fellow in the National Academy of Public
Administration, he has received numerous awards, including the Gaus Award for exemplary
scholarship in political science and public administration, the Waldo Award for outstanding
contributions to the literature and leadership of public administration, the Levine Award
for excellence in public administration, and the Brownlow Award for his book, Building
a Legislative-Centered Public Administration. He edited Public Administration Review,
coedited the Policy Studies Journal, and is now on the editorial boards of about twenty
academic journals.

STUDENT 1 (100 WORDS OR MORE)
The month of April is a wonderful time to talk about the weather so I chose it as my theme. We are going to learn the different types of weather, the impact weather has on our lives, and what causes different weather patterns. We will be using the reading, science, art, and music centers to ensure we include all the different ways children can learn. Although most themes for children this young are only a few weeks long we will be using the entire month in order to experience different types of weather and include the two field trips that are planned. We will be using both experienced-based and emerging curriculum (Isbell & Raines,2013) so that the children are comfortable learning things they already have experience with and challenging them with new knowledge. We will be introducing new vocabulary about the weather and taking clues from our discussions on what the children want to explore further.
On the first day we will read the book "Oh say can you say, what's the weather today" by Tish Rabe. This book uses a familiar character, The Cat in the Hat, to introduce new words to the reader and even has a vocabulary list in the back to help define the words. Copies of this book and other weather related books will be added to the reading center for the children to look at during their free time. During circle time we will discuss some of the new words and what they mean. Observing the children as they talk about the weather the teacher will be able to decide where their interest is and what she needs to focus on. Knowing that children learn best what they are already interested in (Isbell & Raines,2013) is key to keeping these lessons fun and making sure the children get the most out of our projects.
The science center will be a major focus for this months theme. A water table and wind machine is added to give the children hands on learning opportunities. We will make a weather chart that will be hung in the science center and every day a child will go to the window, check the weather and add the appropriate label, a sun for sunny, a cloud for cloudy, etc. Giving the child the freedom to choose the correct symbol even if more than one applies helps all the children to accept the ideas o.

ASSIGNMENT
Expressing Yourself Informally
For the Unit 4 Assignment, you will write a 1–1.5-page, double spaced, informal and personal blog post on an issue that is in some way relevant to your field of study and that you have personal experience with.
According to The Social Psychology Network, a blog, “short for "web log," is an online journal or record of sequential postings with news, commentary, or other material” (2017). Like an essay, a blog post establishes and develops a clear point about a topic or issue. Depending on the topic, audience, and purpose, a blog can be formal or informal. A blog written by an individual, for example, tends to be about his or her experience with the topic and is written in first person.
Imagine for this Assignment that you have created your own blog site and that you are writing a post for your blog .

Post this as your Initial response. (Essential I-IX).
The problem is falls among elderly and its relation with their health problems and surrounding environmental factors. Falls are one of the most common problems in the elderly around the world. A fall is defined as an event which results in a person coming to rest inadvertently on the ground or floor or at another lower level. Currently, there is no numerical criterion that classifies people as "elderly." However, the United Nations has determined that the age of 60+ should be used to refer to people as being "elderly. This is in spite of the fact that most developed countries take the chronological age of 65 years to define the ‘elderly. In the United States, falls are a leading cause of morbidity and mortality among mature adults. It is the second leading cause of accidental or unintentional injury/death after road traffic injuries. For example, of the 11 million adults aged 65 years and over living in the UK, around 30% of community-dwelling mature adults fall at least once in their lifetime. It was found in a study conducted in the Eastern Mediterranean Region that 30%–40% of adults older than 65 years residing in the community fall each year. The rates were higher in hospitalized patients and nursing home residents. Moreover, the incidence of falls rose steadily from middle-age onward peaking in persons older than 80 years.
Falls may be associated with various contiguous environmental hazards such as carpets and rugs. Most falls (72.8%) occur at home. Women represented 80.2% of fall injury victims. Not surprisingly, perhaps, the most common location for fall injuries in the home is the bathroom (35.7%). Other environmental hazards include poor stairway design and disrepair, inadequate lighting, clutter, slippery floors, unsecured mats, and the lack of nonskid surfaces in bathtubs. There is a paucity of literature on the important topic of falls amongst the elderly in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. However, our study will focus on estimating the true extent of falls among the elderly within the community alone and examine the relationship between the health status of elderly people as well as the impact of the environment on their propensity to experience falls.

Issues:
There were several issues related to global teams working across multiple sites and time
zones.
1. The first major issue was that local sites created silos to insulate them from changes that
were not in their best interest but needed for global team to succeed.
2. The next issue was that working across several time zones was affecting work/life
balance and team performance.
3. Another challenging issue was the low cost objective that drove a disproportionate
amount of new hires and graduates in low cost regions.
4. The team also struggled with project communication and coordination.
Alternative
Solution
s:
An alternative solution to the first issue related to geographic silos is to increase the
team’s cultural competence. One idea is to make newsletters on global business developments
and trends available to team members, and ask them to describe the most significant implications
for each region during weekly meetings. The Overall Project Manager (OPM) should meet
regularly with the area leaders to discuss important trends, issues, and common opportunities.
The OPM should also work with HR to institute voluntary language and cross-cultural awareness
training programs.
The solution to the second issue is to work with HR to institute flexible working hours,
telecommuting, compressed work weeks, part-time hours, and job sharing programs so that team
members can adjust to different time zones without affecting quality of life. This solution needs
to include training on prioritization to ensure critical tasks are completed or escalated to mitigate
schedule risk. The third solution is to work with HR to identify skills training courses and use
technology so that a command of the company’s language is not critical. It will also be
important to establish rewards valued by each cultural group for sharing expertise, and conduct
regular skill gap assessments and development plans.
The final solution is to establish a communication plan for different levels of complexity
and frequency. For example, important technical documents should be in multiple languages,
contain pictures and diagrams to assist people who are not fluent in the company’s official
language. Moreover, complex information should be communicated face to face whenever
possible, and then follow-up with printed version, and documented minutes and action items
discussed. Videoconferencing, net meetings, and online chats should be utilized wherever travel
restrictions apply.

Day 08 ActivityFisher & HughesSeptember 21, 2018Study
A study was conducted to determine the effects of alcohol on human reaction times. Fifty-seven adult individuals within two-age groups were recruited for this study and were randomly allocated into one of three alcohol treatment groups – a control where the subjects remain sober during the entire study, a moderate group were the subject is supplied alcohol but is limited in such a way that their blood alcohol content (BAC) remains under the legal limit to drive (BAC of 0.08) and a group that received a high amount of alcohol to which their BAC may exceed the legal limit for driving. Each subject was trained on a video game system and their reaction time (in milliseconds) to a visual stimulus was recorded at 7 time points 30 minutes apart (labeled T0=0, T1=30, T2=60 and so on). At time point T0, all subjects were sober and those in one of the alcohol consumption groups began drinking after the first measured reaction time (controlled within the specifications outlined). The researcher is interested in determining the influence alcohol and age (namely, is reaction time different for those in the 20s versus 30s) has on reaction times.
The task for today is to do a complete analysis for this study and dig into the effects of alcohol, age and time have on reaction times.Data input and wrangling
First read in the data:alcohol <- read.csv("alcoholReaction.csv")
head(alcohol)## Subject Age Alcohol T0 T1 T2 T3 T4 T5 T6
## 1 1 24 Control 255.3 254.8 256.4 255.1 257.0 256.1 257.0
## 2 2 34 Control 250.1 249.2 249.0 248.0 248.0 248.9 248.1
## 3 3 31 Control 248.2 247.1 246.9 246.7 246.0 246.0 247.0
## 4 4 24 Control 253.9 253.8 254.9 254.1 253.2 254.1 255.0
## 5 5 38 Control 250.0 251.0 250.0 249.9 248.8 249.1 249.9
## 6 6 38 Control 246.0 248.0 247.0 248.1 248.1 246.9 244.0
Note, the Age variable is recorded as an actual age in years, not the category of 20s or 30s like we want – we need to dichotomize this variable. Also note the data is in wide format – the reaction times (the response variables) are spread over multiple columns. We need a way to gather these columns into a single column. So we need to do some data processing.
First consider the below code:head(alcohol %>%
mutate(Age = case_when(Age<31 ~ "20s",
Age %in% 31:40 ~ "30s")))## Subject Age Alcohol T0 T1 T2 T3 T4 T5 T6
## 1 1 20s Control 255.3 254.8 256.4 255.1 257.0 256.1 257.0
## 2 2 30s Control 250.1 249.2 249.0 248.0 248.0 248.9 248.1
## 3 3 30s Control 248.2 247.1 246.9 246.7 246.0 246.0 247.0
## 4 4 20s Control 253.9 253.8 254.9 254.1 253.2 254.1 255.0
## 5 5 30s Control 250.0 251.0 250.0 249.9 248.8 249.1 249.9
## 6 6 30s Control 246.0 248.0 247.0 248.1 248.1 246.9 244.0
case_when is essentially a piece-wise comparison. When Age is less than 31, you overwrite Age variable .

The following assignment is based on the business scenario for which you created both an entity-relationship diagram and a normalized database design in Week 2.
For this assignment, you will create multiple related tables that match your normalized database design. In other words, you will implement a physical design (an actual, usable database) based on a logical design.
Refer to the linked W3Schools.com articles “SQL CREATE TABLE Statement,” “SQL PRIMARY KEY Constraint,” “SQL FOREIGN KEY Constraint,” and “SQL INSERT INTO Statement” for help in completing this assignment.
Note: In the industry, even the most carefully thought out database designs can contain mistakes. Feel free to correct in your tables any mistakes you notice in your normalized database design. Also, note that in Microsoft® Access®, you follow the steps below to launch the SQL editor:
Figure 1. To create a SQL query in Microsoft® Access®, begin by clicking the CREATE tab.
To Complete This Assignment:
1. Use the CREATE TABLE statement to create each table in your design. Note that a table in a RDMS corresponds to an entity in an entity-relationship diagram. Recommended tables for this assignment are CUSTOMER, ORDER, ORDER_DETAIL, PRODUCT, EMPLOYEE, and STORE.
2. As part of each CREATE TABLE statement, define all of the columns, or fields, that you want each particular table to contain. Give them short, meaningful names and include constraints; that is, describe what type of data each column (field) is allowed to hold and any other constraints, such as size, range, or uniqueness.
3. Note that any field you marked as a unique identifier in your normalized database design is a key field. Key fields must be described as both UNIQUE and NOT NULL, which means a value must exist for each record and that value must be unique across all records.
4. After you have created all six tables, including relationships between the tables as appropriate (matching the primary key in one table to a foreign key in another table), use the INSERT INTO statement to insert 10 records into each of your tables. You will need to make up the data you insert into your tables. For example, to insert one record into the CUSTOMER table, you will need to invent a customer number, a customer name, and so on—one value for each of the fields you defined for the CUSTOMER table—to insert into the table.
5. To ensure that your INSERT INTO statements succeeded in populating your tables, use the SELECT statement described in Ch. 7, “Introduction to Structured Query Language,” in Database Systems: Design, Implementation, and Management.to retrieve the records you inserted. For example, to see all 10 records you inserted into the CUSTOMER table, you might apply the following SQL statement: SELECT * FROM CUSTOMER;
After you have created all six tables and populated ten records in each table, submit to the Assignment Files tab the database containin.

DB Response 1I agree with the decision to search the house. Ther.docx
DB Response 1
I agree with the decision to search the house. There was reasonable suspicion to believe the fugitive could have been in the home. The homeowner not only consented to the search of the house but requested it for her safety. Complacency kills. In this situation, the officer is very regretful in his decision to conduct a complacent search of the home, and luckily nobody was killed.
My department does not have body cameras, but I still conduct business as if somebody is recording me. We live in a generation of surveillance. You never know when there are hidden cameras, a camera on a business you did not notice, or a cell phone recording from the top floor of a building. We hire police officers with high amounts of integrity because the definition of integrity is doing the right thing even when nobody is looking. I would be lying if I said my grandmother would approve of everything I do on the job. I am most guilty of foul language and it is something that I am working on not doing that. However, I can emphatically say I work with integrity and honesty without a doubt.
I think setting limits on tolerable behavior in regards to sexual and general harassment is appropriate; however, there are too many situations to make a policy for every behavior one could find inappropriate. When it comes to using force again every situation is different but there should be a pretty well laid out policy at departments for when and how an officer should use a certain amount of force. Officers should be trained on de-escalation tactics and alternatives to using force. Tactical training should include strategies to create time, space, and distance, to reduce the likelihood that force will be necessary and should occur in realistic conditions appropriate to the department’s location (U.S. Commission On Civil Rights, 2018).
Philippians 2 verses 3 – 8 is a pretty straightforward verse with great leadership lessons. Be humble, put others before yourself, and be a servant leader.
From the very beginning of any interrogation, the accused has constitutional rights not to speak to police and also to have an attorney present. The Eighth Amendment to the Constitution prohibits cruel and unusual punishments placed upon any persons in the U.S. With these rights in mind I will only go as far as the Constitution allows when interrogating this suspect even if the suspect admits where the child is if the admission was coerced that admission could get thrown out of court. I would never compromise the investigation. There are other ways to find the abducted girl through detective work than just interrogating the suspect. The cost of illegal interrogations is documented in the number of lost prosecutions. Literally, thousands of cases across the country have had to be dismissed because prosecutors could not trust that the evidence provided by police officers was legitimate or the officer had lost credibility as a witness in all cases because of his or her wrongdoing (P.
DB Response prompt ZAKChapter 7, Q1.Customers are expecting.docx
DB Response prompt ZAK
Chapter 7, Q1.
Customers are expecting more from their service providers. Rather than traditionally accepting boilerplate offerings from service providers, customers desire that service providers cater to their requests. Organizations providing services must keep up with the customer’s demand or risk losing business to others who will. Many service providers have been adopting lean principles to accommodate the needs of their customers in successful attempts to decrease waste, increase efficiency, improve customer service and satisfaction (Daft, 2016, p. 275). From online music providers, customers expect music tracks personalized for their tastes. From airlines, customers can expect preflight seat and meal selections.

Chapter 7, Q2.
While many facets of businesses may involve craft technology, it is still important for business schools to teach management. Some businesses which only expect their leaders to gain knowledge and expertise from experience, may be creating a bureaucratic and restricted model for their business. Companies which rely only on internal training for their leaders can miss opportunities from potential leaders coming in from the outside. Business schools which teach management can provide potential leaders with a foundation to draw from. Teaching management can expose students to issues and opportunities experienced by others, not just ones restricted to one specific company. Teaching management from a textbook is just one method of conveying information. Just as one would not necessarily be proficient in piloting a boat from reading a book, a textbook about doing so would provide the student with underlying concepts which could dramatically increase the success of the student when they move to an actual boat. This textbook based training would be further enhanced with some practical experience.
Chapter 8, Q1.
Technology has progressed allowing real time instant messaging and virtual meetings. High level managers can indeed expect technology to allow them to do their jobs with little face-to-face communication, but they should question if that is something they really want to do. There are currently methods available which could be used effectively to communicate with subordinates, employees and stockholders, such as recorded feeds which would be able to reach every associated individual. These however may not provide a sense of personalization from the managers. Leaders in an organization may resort to using tec.

Consumer Brand Metrics Q3 2015
Eater Archetypes:
Brand usage and preferences by consumer segment
The restaurant industry has long relied on demographic factors to
identify and prioritize consumer groups. For example, many
brands currently obsess over attracting Millennials—some
without pausing to consider the variations among consumers
within this demographic cohort. In addition to life stages,
consumer attitudes about health, value, convenience and the
overall role of foodservice in their lives drive significant
differences in preferences and behavior.
With these distinctions in mind, we have updated the Consumer
Brand Metrics (CBM) survey with questions that allow us to
segment consumers into one of seven Eater Archetypes. Each
segment has a distinct psychographic profile, which is outlined in
our recent Consumer Foodservice Landscape. Accordingly, their
patronage of the segments and brands tracked in CBM varies.
This paper explores some differences we can discern after the
initial quarterly results, including the archetypes’ segment usage,
brand patronage and occasion dynamics. Examining CBM data by
Eater Archetype reveals nuances that complement a demographic
profile of a chain’s guests.

Consumer Brand Metrics Q3 2015
Segmenting consumers by psychographic factors, rather than
just demographic characteristics, can lead to a better
understanding of the consumers that matter to your brand and
how to appeal to them.
Key Takeaways
Busy Balancers and Functional Eaters drive usage across
restaurants and convenience stores. Full-service restaurant
(FSR) operators may also consider targeting Foodservice
Hobbyists and Affluent Socializers, as these archetypes
comprise more than a quarter of FSR patrons, on average.
How does foodservice segment usage vary by archetype?
Driven by unique needs and motivations, Eater Archetypes
gravitate to a wide variety of brands. For example,
McDonald’s, Burger King and Whataburger each
disproportionately attract unique archetypes (Habitual
Matures, Bargain Hunters and Functional Eaters,
respectively).
Which chains do each archetype visit most frequently?
Archetypes that patronize the same restaurant may not use
the brand the same way. For example, usage varies by
daypart, with afternoon snacks skewing to Busy Balancers
and late-night meals d.

“Rosenbloom crafted a compelling narrative . . . Students
like Administrative Law for Public Managers because it is
straightforward and easy to understand. I teach a wide range
of students—mid-level managers to students with no work
experience—both are relieved that the content and examples
are easily digestible. It’s an excellent book!”
—Lorenda Ann Naylor, University of Baltimore
“This book presents a profound, as well as comprehensive,
knowledge base of administrative law.”
—Public Administration Review
Administrative Law for Public Managers is an accessible and comprehensive guide to
the fundamentals of administrative law—why we have administrative law, the constitutional
constraints on public administration, and administrative law’s frameworks for rulemaking,
adjudication, enforcement, transparency, and judicial and legislative review. Rosenbloom
explains administrative law from the perspective of administrative practice, emphasizing
how various administrative law provisions promote their underlying goal of improving the fit
between public administration and US democratic-constitutionalism.
The second edition includes more coverage of state administrative law, as well as an
expanded discussion of judicial review. It has also been updated to include the major
statutes, court cases, executive orders, and other major executive initiatives since 2003.
The addition of discussion questions makes this an even more valuable resource for public
administration classrooms and students.
David H. Rosenbloom is Distinguished Professor of Public Administration at American
University. A major contributor to the field and a Fellow in the National Academy of Public
Administration, he has received numerous awards, including the Gaus Award for exemplary
scholarship in political science and public administration, the Waldo Award for outstanding
contributions to the literature and leadership of public administration, the Levine Award

DB ASSIGNMENT
For this Discussion Board you will be developing a thematic unit for preschoolers. Choose your overarching theme and explain the main parts or features of your unit. Summarize the activities you will use to integrate content areas into you unit.
·
Your activities need to focus on the creative arts as well as content areas and include activities that are open-ended and allow children to make choices.
·
Your unit needs to be your own and not one that you have discovered on the internet or in a teacher’s manual.
Read your classmates units carefully and respond to them by sharing another open-ended activity that could be included in their unit.
PLZ RESPOND TO THESE STUDENT ABOUT WHAT THEY WROT ABOUT THE DB ASSIGNMENT
STUDENT 1 (100 WORDS OR MORE)
The month of April is a wonderful time to talk about the weather so I chose it as my theme. We are going to learn the different types of weather, the impact weather has on our lives, and what causes different weather patterns. We will be using the reading, science, art, and music centers to ensure we include all the different ways children can learn. Although most themes for children this young are only a few weeks long we will be using the entire month in order to experience different types of weather and include the two field trips that are planned. We will be using both experienced-based and emerging curriculum (Isbell & Raines,2013) so that the children are comfortable learning things they already have experience with and challenging them with new knowledge. We will be introducing new vocabulary about the weather and taking clues from our discussions on what the children want to explore further.
On the first day we will read the book "Oh say can you say, what's the weather today" by Tish Rabe. This book uses a familiar character, The Cat in the Hat, to introduce new words to the reader and even has a vocabulary list in the back to help define the words. Copies of this book and other weather related books will be added to the reading center for the children to look at during their free time. During circle time we will discuss some of the new words and what they mean. Observing the children as they talk about the weather the teacher will be able to decide where their interest is and what she needs to focus on. Knowing that children learn best what they are already interested in (Isbell & Raines,2013) is key to keeping these lessons fun and making sure the children get the most out of our projects.
The science center will be a major focus for this months theme. A water table and wind machine is added to give the children hands on learning opportunities. We will make a weather chart that will be hung in the science center and every day a child will go to the window, check the weather and add the appropriate label, a sun for sunny, a cloud for cloudy, etc. Giving the child the freedom to choose the correct symbol even if more than one applies helps all the children to accept the ideas o.

Writing a Draft of the Personal Document
Revising your writing provides you the chance to ensure your ideas are clear and effective prior to submitting the final draft. At times it can be challenging to see problematic areas in your own writing; this is where peer feedback can be very beneficial.
Prepare: Complete the assigned Unit 4 Reading and Learning Activities. Preview the Unit 4 Assignment details.
Review the topic ideas and prewriting you posted to the Unit 3 Discussion Board as well as the feedback you received from your classmates. Make any necessary adjustments to your topic, audience, and main point. That will prepare you to write a rough draft of your blog post.
Post: Post Your Draft
Using your prewriting ideas and feedback that helped you to choose one topic, audience, and purpose, write a 2–3-paragraph rough draft of your Unit 4 Assignment and post it to the Discussion Board. This is going to be a rough draft, so do not worry if it needs editing and revision. All drafts need work.
Include a bit of self-reflection as well so the class knows how to best help you:
· What aspects of your draft do you think could use development?
· What aspects of your draft do you think are strong?
· Which areas of your draft are you still working on?
· Include an open-ended question about any issue your initial post raises which your classmates can help you with.

ASSIGNMENT
Expressing Yourself Informally
For the Unit 4 Assignment, you will write a 1–1.5-page, double spaced, informal and personal blog post on an issue that is in some way relevant to your field of study and that you have personal experience with.
According to The Social Psychology Network, a blog, “short for "web log," is an online journal or record of sequential postings with news, commentary, or other material” (2017). Like an essay, a blog post establishes and develops a clear point about a topic or issue. Depending on the topic, audience, and purpose, a blog can be formal or informal. A blog written by an individual, for example, tends to be about his or her experience with the topic and is written in first person.
Imagine for this Assignment that you have created your own blog site and that you are writing a post for your blog .

Discussion 4
Prepare a 350 word draft of a clinical problem that you would like to use for your Research project. There should be an introduction to the problem (as to why it is a problem) that is documented with literature, a clear problem statement (one declarative sentence that begins with "The problem is...", and a purpose to your project. Post this as your Initial response. (Essential I-IX).
The problem is falls among elderly and its relation with their health problems and surrounding environmental factors. Falls are one of the most common problems in the elderly around the world. A fall is defined as an event which results in a person coming to rest inadvertently on the ground or floor or at another lower level. Currently, there is no numerical criterion that classifies people as "elderly." However, the United Nations has determined that the age of 60+ should be used to refer to people as being "elderly. This is in spite of the fact that most developed countries take the chronological age of 65 years to define the ‘elderly. In the United States, falls are a leading cause of morbidity and mortality among mature adults. It is the second leading cause of accidental or unintentional injury/death after road traffic injuries. For example, of the 11 million adults aged 65 years and over living in the UK, around 30% of community-dwelling mature adults fall at least once in their lifetime. It was found in a study conducted in the Eastern Mediterranean Region that 30%–40% of adults older than 65 years residing in the community fall each year. The rates were higher in hospitalized patients and nursing home residents. Moreover, the incidence of falls rose steadily from middle-age onward peaking in persons older than 80 years.
Falls may be associated with various contiguous environmental hazards such as carpets and rugs. Most falls (72.8%) occur at home. Women represented 80.2% of fall injury victims. Not surprisingly, perhaps, the most common location for fall injuries in the home is the bathroom (35.7%). Other environmental hazards include poor stairway design and disrepair, inadequate lighting, clutter, slippery floors, unsecured mats, and the lack of nonskid surfaces in bathtubs. There is a paucity of literature on the important topic of falls amongst the elderly in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. However, our study will focus on estimating the true extent of falls among the elderly within the community alone and examine the relationship between the health status of elderly people as well as the impact of the environment on their propensity to experience falls.

Issues:
There were several issues related to global teams working across multiple sites and time
zones.
1. The first major issue was that local sites created silos to insulate them from changes that
were not in their best interest but needed for global team to succeed.
2. The next issue was that working across several time zones was affecting work/life
balance and team performance.
3. Another challenging issue was the low cost objective that drove a disproportionate
amount of new hires and graduates in low cost regions.
4. The team also struggled with project communication and coordination.
Alternative
Solution
s:
An alternative solution to the first issue related to geographic silos is to increase the
team’s cultural competence. One idea is to make newsletters on global business developments
and trends available to team members, and ask them to describe the most significant implications
for each region during weekly meetings. The Overall Project Manager (OPM) should meet
regularly with the area leaders to discuss important trends, issues, and common opportunities.
The OPM should also work with HR to institute voluntary language and cross-cultural awareness
training programs.
The solution to the second issue is to work with HR to institute flexible working hours,
telecommuting, compressed work weeks, part-time hours, and job sharing programs so that team
members can adjust to different time zones without affecting quality of life. This solution needs
to include training on prioritization to ensure critical tasks are completed or escalated to mitigate
schedule risk. The third solution is to work with HR to identify skills training courses and use
technology so that a command of the company’s language is not critical. It will also be
important to establish rewards valued by each cultural group for sharing expertise, and conduct
regular skill gap assessments and development plans.
The final solution is to establish a communication plan for different levels of complexity
and frequency. For example, important technical documents should be in multiple languages,
contain pictures and diagrams to assist people who are not fluent in the company’s official
language. Moreover, complex information should be communicated face to face whenever
possible, and then follow-up with printed version, and documented minutes and action items
discussed. Videoconferencing, net meetings, and online chats should be utilized wherever travel
restrictions apply.

Day 08 ActivityFisher & HughesSeptember 21, 2018Study
A study was conducted to determine the effects of alcohol on human reaction times. Fifty-seven adult individuals within two-age groups were recruited for this study and were randomly allocated into one of three alcohol treatment groups – a control where the subjects remain sober during the entire study, a moderate group were the subject is supplied alcohol but is limited in such a way that their blood alcohol content (BAC) remains under the legal limit to drive (BAC of 0.08) and a group that received a high amount of alcohol to which their BAC may exceed the legal limit for driving. Each subject was trained on a video game system and their reaction time (in milliseconds) to a visual stimulus was recorded at 7 time points 30 minutes apart (labeled T0=0, T1=30, T2=60 and so on). At time point T0, all subjects were sober and those in one of the alcohol consumption groups began drinking after the first measured reaction time (controlled within the specifications outlined). The researcher is interested in determining the influence alcohol and age (namely, is reaction time different for those in the 20s versus 30s) has on reaction times.
The task for today is to do a complete analysis for this study and dig into the effects of alcohol, age and time have on reaction times.Data input and wrangling
First read in the data:alcohol <- read.csv("alcoholReaction.csv")
head(alcohol)## Subject Age Alcohol T0 T1 T2 T3 T4 T5 T6
## 1 1 24 Control 255.3 254.8 256.4 255.1 257.0 256.1 257.0
## 2 2 34 Control 250.1 249.2 249.0 248.0 248.0 248.9 248.1
## 3 3 31 Control 248.2 247.1 246.9 246.7 246.0 246.0 247.0
## 4 4 24 Control 253.9 253.8 254.9 254.1 253.2 254.1 255.0
## 5 5 38 Control 250.0 251.0 250.0 249.9 248.8 249.1 249.9
## 6 6 38 Control 246.0 248.0 247.0 248.1 248.1 246.9 244.0
Note, the Age variable is recorded as an actual age in years, not the category of 20s or 30s like we want – we need to dichotomize this variable. Also note the data is in wide format – the reaction times (the response variables) are spread over multiple columns. We need a way to gather these columns into a single column. So we need to do some data processing.
First consider the below code:head(alcohol %>%
mutate(Age = case_when(Age<31 ~ "20s",
Age %in% 31:40 ~ "30s")))## Subject Age Alcohol T0 T1 T2 T3 T4 T5 T6
## 1 1 20s Control 255.3 254.8 256.4 255.1 257.0 256.1 257.0
## 2 2 30s Control 250.1 249.2 249.0 248.0 248.0 248.9 248.1
## 3 3 30s Control 248.2 247.1 246.9 246.7 246.0 246.0 247.0
## 4 4 20s Control 253.9 253.8 254.9 254.1 253.2 254.1 255.0
## 5 5 30s Control 250.0 251.0 250.0 249.9 248.8 249.1 249.9
## 6 6 30s Control 246.0 248.0 247.0 248.1 248.1 246.9 244.0
case_when is essentially a piece-wise comparison. When Age is less than 31, you overwrite Age variable .

How to Manage Reception Report in Odoo 17
A business may deal with both sales and purchases occasionally. They buy things from vendors and then sell them to their customers. Such dealings can be confusing at times. Because multiple clients may inquire about the same product at the same time, after purchasing those products, customers must be assigned to them. Odoo has a tool called Reception Report that can be used to complete this assignment. By enabling this, a reception report comes automatically after confirming a receipt, from which we can assign products to orders.

David Hinton in his introduction to the poetry of Li Bai (also known.docx
- 1. David Hinton in his introduction to the poetry of Li Bai (also known as Li Po) writes, “The most essential quality of Li Po’s work is the way in which wu-wei spontaneity gave shape to his experience of the natural world.” Choose any two poems and analyze the imagery in the poems to show the ways in which wu wei informs Li Bai’s understanding of nature. Assignment needs to be 350 words. (Key points: thesis should connect wu-wei principles and nature as expressed in the poems, the post should focus on the relationship between the poet-narrator and nature) A little bit about wu wei—[One of Taoism’s most important concepts is wu wei , which is sometimes translated as “non-doing” or “non-action.” A better way to think of it, however, is as a paradoxical “Action of non-action.” Wu wei refers to the cultivation of a state of being in which our actions are quite effortlessly in alignment with the ebb and flow of the elemental cycles of the natural world. It is a kind of “going with the flow” that is characterized by great ease and awareness, in which—without even trying— we’re able to respond perfectly to whatever situations arise … The practice of wu wei is the expression of what in Taoism is considered to be the highest form of virtue—one that is in no way premeditated but instead arises spontaneously.] Elizabeth Reninger
