Thanks!!! Just worry about the highlighted yellow…..highlighted red is for my use!! Discussion : Minimum of 300 words What do you think about when you hear the word civilization? Do we really need it in order to survive and prosper on this planet? The real question is whether we can live above subsistence without the technological innovations that densely populated settlements generate. Moreover, the question is not as frivolous as it may seem at first glance. Many cultures throughout human history consciously decided not to take the route toward nucleated settlements and the resultant consequences. The Celts represent one example from the time line of our course of a people who preferred not to have cities. The Avars, a Turkic-speaking people from Central Asia, were pastoral nomads who acquired cities during the course of their conquests, yet they used cities in ways that would strike average city dwellers as most strange. Define civilization in your own words, based on your understanding of the nine characteristics commonly associated with civilizations presented in Section 2.1 of your textbook, World history: The human experience to 1500. Choose one society from the Week 1 Civilization Tour (Links to an external site.) Links to an external site. , which includes Mesopotamian, Olmec, Egyptian, Harappan, and Ancient Chinese societies. Based on at least two of the characteristics listed in Section 2.1, explain why your chosen society can be considered a civilization.

Cite and format all sources according to APA style as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center (Links to an external site.) Links to an external site. , using both in-text citations and providing full references at the bottom of your post. Your initial post should be a minimum of 300 words, due on Day 3.

The Legacy of William James The American psychologist William James (1842-1910) was one of the most influential intellectuals of the nineteenth century, and as the decades following his death increased in number, his influence increased as well. By the twenty-first century, he was considered the “Father of American Psychology,” and his famous cross-cultural study on religious experience had become a fixture on the syllabi of college courses throughout the United States. Yet when the weightiness of James’ legacy is considered, his specific impact on the study of religion is incommensurately difficult to evaluate. Most scholars agree that he is a foundational figure, but few have continued his research, even fewer utilize his methodology, and almost none would publically recognize the validity of several of his conclusions. Compared to his contemporaries, including Edward Burnett Tylor (1832-1917), James George Frazer (1854-1941), and Sigmund Freud (1856-1939), James’s approach to studying religion is unique; he was one of the few who did not believe scientific knowledge would—or should—become a replacement for the religious “truths” that shaped the values of the nineteenth century. Though James maintained that modern science was better equipped to address questions regarding the evolution of man and the creation of the universe—answers previously deemed the intellectual property of religion—he also believed that science needed to do more to account for mankind’s spiritual evolution. Moreover, James maintained that each academic discipline and/or intellectual tradition’s approach to analyzing the physical and metaphysical components of life was based on fallible methods of inquiry, and thus no matter how thorough each believed its methodology to be, each was limited in terms of the scope of data that it could effectively account for. Therefore, James insisted that scholars supplement their findings with those of other fields, and rather than treating religion and science as wholly separate objects of study, or as being at odds with another, he believed a more comparative approach would be beneficial to all. The impact of James’ legacy is seemingly evident in the field’s movement towards a more scientific study of religion, yet each of the figures previously mentioned, Tylor, Freud, and Frazer (among others), also claimed to favor a scientific approach. Religious studies scholars have, like James, attempted to avoid exclusionary Christo-centric religious jargon in an effort to better analyze the social function of various religious traditions, yet as the field moved in this direction religious studies also became increasingly specialized. As of today, many focus on one aspect of a single culture’s religion during one historical epoch, and few engage in comparison across traditions. No matter where you open [history’s] pages, you find things recorded under the name of divinations, inspirations, demonia.

Term Paper Proposal (Research) Student Name Course Name and Number Instructor Name Date of Assignment Religious Violence and Radical Islam Today, we live in a world where violence plagues our society. I believe it is crucial to discuss the concept of violence. Why does it occur? Why does it seem to be consuming not only those living in America, but the entire World population? Our daily news headlines are stormed with stories about new acts of violence every day. Many times these headlines are developed due to an act of violence that was committed by a religious group. This paper will focus on the impulse of violence within religion. The thesis for this paper is that in any religion in which radical groups exist there is potential for violence to occur. According to the Pew Research Center, Islam is the World’s second largest religion and the fastest growing (The Future of World Religion, 2015). In light of this fact, this research paper will focus on the radical groups that exist within the Islamic religion. The major emphasis of this paper will be to determine if the violence that occurs is a reflection of ideological foundations in the religion or is it more greatly influenced by culture and other precipitating factors. First, I will examine some of the violent acts carried out by religious groups throughout history. I will look at the factors that influenced such acts to be carried out by these groups of people using information from “Religion, Terror and Violence: Religious Studies Perspectives”, by Rennie and Tite (2008). History reveals many acts of violence occurring among religious group. In particular were the battles that occurred during Holy wars. For example, the Crusades were a series of battles that occurred between 1096-1291 for control of the Holy land. I will use examples and information from Selengut’s “Sacred Fury: understanding religious violence”, to determine whether violent acts, such as the Holy wars, were only influence by opposing religious beliefs or were they a product of other factors such as political and cultural influence? I will also implement material from Kressel’s “Bad faith: the danger of religious extremist”, which explains extremist among many religions, in further support of my thesis statement. Second, I will narrow my focus on violence to that which is occurring in the Islamic religion. I would like to express again that I am not focusing on Islam because I believe it is a violent religion. I am focusing on this religion in particular because of its fast growing population and attention it has recently been receiving in our society. As stated in my thesis, I am attempting to prove that violence can exist in any religion in which there are radical groups of people. I will use information from Esposito’s book, “What everyone needs to know about Islam”, to explain a few of the foundational ideologies that exist in Islam. Next, I will focus on the radical groups that exist among the Islamic religion. ...

Assignment 1: Conformity and Social Influence How do reasonable people go along with unreasonable ideas, including mass suicide? How do charismatic leaders create their own “culture” within a specific situation and setting and then bring followers along? It is unsettling to consider that researchers have found that almost anyone will obey orders if placed in the right situation. For this Assignment, you will explore the role of conformity and social influence in the dynamics of a cult. Keep in mind the definition of “culture” as you examine how a powerful leader can create a distinct culture, or “cult,” that others join and follow: a set of attitudes, behaviors, and symbols shared by a large group of people (Shiraev & Levy, 2017, p. 4) . To prepare: Review the sections in Chapter 10 of your course text, beginning with “Universal Interaction” (p. 301), and pay particular attention to the content on conformity, obedience, leadership, and social power. Your Week 5 Learning Resources provide information on three different cults and their leaders in recent U.S. history: Jim Jones and the People’s Temple, David Koresh and the Branch Davidians, and Marshall Applewhite and Heaven’s Gate. You are encouraged to choose one as the focus of your Assignment. Additional Learning Resources provide insights on the dynamics of a cult. Note: If you prefer to choose a different leader and group, check with your instructor first for approval. For your focus leader, review and analyze the Module 5 Learning Resources provided and additional resources you find in the Walden Library or in other sources, including reputable websites, to complete this Assignment. For your focus leader and group, think about how each may exemplify the concepts of conformity, obedience, and social power: How the leader builds a “culture” with its own rules outside of the larger culture What elements compel followers to conform, such as charisma, isolation, and/or fear Use the Learning Resources provided and those you find to analyze your leader and followers as an example of a situational development of a “culture” through conformity, obedience, and social power. By Day 7 Submit a 2 - to 3-page research paper in which you do the following: Describe the leader and followers who are the subject of your analysis. Analyze how the leader created a distinct “culture” for followers and what elements of a culture were present in the setting. Analyze how the leader used social power to influence followers. Analyze elements that created conformity and obedience among the followers. Explain how your chosen leader’s use of social influence applies to the leaders in your culture (e.g., local, academic, political, or other types of leaders you identify). Note: Support the responses within your Assignment with evidence from the assigned Learning Resources and those you found. Provide a reference list for resources you used for this Assignment.

Note: Units are cubic meters per person per year, but most important to look at is the comparison between countries – red means more water use, green means less. Source: epa.gov Global Water Use per Person per Year Source: waterfootprint.org Source: discoveryeducation.com After spending two days in Tel Aviv, you leave for Jerusalem and arrive at your hotel near the old part of the city. Once there, you can't wait to begin exploring. The Old City is a place for walking and wandering, with wonderful sights in its narrow streets. Drawing you like a magnet is the site of the ancient temple, destroyed by Roman soldiers nearly two thousand years ago. Only its foundation stones remain. On the mount where the temple once stood is now a glittering golden dome. Built by Muslims, the Dome of the Rock covers the great stone beneath it, which is venerated by Muslims and Jews alike, who hold that their ancestor Abraham came to this spot. You decide to walk down from the city in order to view the mount from below, after which you plan to turn back and travel, like a true pilgrim, “up to Jerusalem.” You buy food for a picnic lunch at stalls as you walk inside the city. Soon you are beyond the Old City gate. Luckily, the day is sunny but not hot. You see a large stone tomb in the valley below and beyond it, in the east, Mount Scopus. Page 282At last it is time to stop for a rest and to eat your lunch. You sit under a tree and look back, thinking to yourself about the events this site has witnessed. Your mind becomes crowded with the names of biblical kings, prophets, and priests associated with Jerusalem: David, Solomon, Melchizedek, Isaiah, Jeremiah. As the sounds of everyday traffic filter through your thoughts, you imagine the many battles over this holy city and the successive waves of conquerors—Babylonians, Greeks, Romans, A.

1.Rebecca Sperry Mar 29, 2020Mar 29 at 5:52pm Manage Discussion Entry When thinking of purchasing and buying, one may think that the terms mean the same thing. Purchasing, however, is significantly different from buying in that the process refers to buying specific goods or services that will be used by the organization (Benton, 2014). Conversely, buying refers to “procuring items for resale” (Benton, 2014, p. 141). The typical steps in the purchasing cycle are as followed: 1. Identifying the need 2. Specify how much and when the product is needed by 3. Write the purchase order 4. Obtain financial approval 5. Research suppliers 6. Chose the supplier 7. Establish price and terms 8. Place the order 9. Receive the order 10. Approve and pay 11. Update inventory (Purchasing & Procurement Center, n.d) Last year, I was involved in an RFP process to determine a new vendor for our relocation program. Each of the steps listed above were apparent throughout the process. The need for the new vendor came from declining service from our then current vendor. We determined that we wanted the new vendor to start providing service in the first quarter of 2020. Relocation vendors were researched and after presentations, a new vendor was identified. The new vendor then supplied a contract with SLA’s and pricing. Once the contract was approved, the vendor started providing the services. Through this process, I worked with a procurement manager. She used software called Scout to research vendors, initiate the RFP, and collect responses. The software was helpful in making the process easier and more efficient. Reference: Benton, W.C. Jr. (2014). Purchasing and supply chain management (3rd ed.). Retrieved from https://www.redshelf.com (Links to an external site.) Purchasing & Procurement Center, n.d.

Retrieve from https://www.purchasing-procurement-center.com/purchasing-cycle.html 2.Taly Hernandez Mar 30, 2020Mar 30 at 5:15pm Manage Discussion Entry Benton (2014) stated, "A typical purchasing department is responsible for the acquisition of a broad range of materials and supplies. Depending on the sales volume, the number of employees, and the functional sophistication, the purchasing activities can be either complex or simple." (P.139) The steps in the conventional purchasing cycle are as follows: · Recognizing the Need · Specifying the exact need · Determine Source Options · Investigating applicable pricing and terms · Choose the supplier · Create Purchase Order/ Requisition and send for approval · Place Order · Receive and Document the order · Approve Invoices and Pay · Verify that PO has been closed in system used (Record Maintenance) The main difference between buying and purchasing is that buying is considered more of an informal general term. It is most commonly related to everyday goods, services, and commodities. Purchasing is much more formal and process-driven. It is often used to refer to larger .

1. Probability Concepts During an epidemic of disease, a doctor sees 110 people who have symptoms commonly associated with the disease. Of these, 45 are women, of whom 20 actually have the disease. 15 of the men also have the disease. Suppose a person is selected at random from those with symptoms seen by the doctor. Define events: W: the selected person is a woman D: the selected person has the disease (a) draw a Venn diagram for this problem b) Describe in words the events W, W  D, W  D, and W|D, and compute probabilities associated with each of these events (c) If three people are selected at random, what is the probability that (i) all three of them have the disease (ii) exactly one of them has the disease? (d) Of people with the disease, 95% react positively to a diagnostic test, as also do 8% of people without the disease. What is the probability of a person selected at random (a) reacting positively (b) having the disease given that he or she reacted positively? .
