Non-governmental Organizations (NGOs) are essential as they fulfill a purpose that is traditionally addressed by a government (Balteanu & Marcu, 2014). In order for an NGO to be impactful and serve its purpose, it will require support and involvement from those it has been organized to help, as well as maintain financial and management autonomy, devoid of the governmental influence (Johnson & Stoskopf, 2010). Political and social instability has made it difficult for NGO's to fulfill their purpose to meet the needs of the communities they have pin pointed as their focus (Balteanu & Marcu). During unrest experienced by many countries, residents who need shelter, food, and medical care, benefit from what NGO's to provide (Balteanu & Marcu). Without the government, military, or religious backing of the NGO's purpose, the NGO will not be able to fulfill it's intent (Balteanu & Marcu). Resident of unstable regions through out the world, are without food, shelter, and medical care due to the preoccupation with control, whether through the government, military, or religious factions. The unstable governments within these regions are either unwilling or unable to care for the needs of their citizens or have taken away their ability to care for themselves. NGO's have the ability to provide for the needs of the people and help them sustain, if allowed. In general, what is the impact of political and social instability on non-government organizations? .

No More Backstabbing... A Faithful Scheduling Policy for Multithreaded Programs Kishore Kumar Pusukuri, Rajiv Gupta, Laxmi N. Bhuyan Department of Computer Science and Engineering University of California, Riverside Riverside, USA 92521 [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Abstract—Efficient contention management is the key to achieving scalable performance for multithreaded applications running on multicore systems. However, contention management policies provided by modern operating systems increase context-switches and lead to performance degradation for multithreaded applications under high loads. Moreover, this problem is exacerbated by the interaction between contention management policies and OS scheduling polices. Time Share (TS) is the default scheduling policy in a modern OS such as OpenSolaris and with TS policy, priorities of threads change very frequently for balancing load and providing fairness in scheduling. Due to the frequent ping-ponging of priorities, threads of an application are often preempted by the threads of the same application. This increases the frequency of involuntary context-switches as wells as lock-holder thread preemptions and leads to poor performance. This problem becomes very serious under high loads. To alleviate this problem, in this paper, we present a scheduling policy called Faithful Scheduling (FF), which dra- matically reduces context-switches as well as lock-holder thread preemptions. We implemented FF on a 24-core Dell PowerEdge R905 server running OpenSolaris.2009.06 and evaluated it using 22 programs including the TATP database application, SPECjbb2005, programs from PARSEC, SPEC OMP, and some microbenchmarks. The experimental results show that FF policy achieves high performance for both lightly and heavily loaded systems. Moreover it does not require any changes to the application source code or the OS kernel. Keywords-Scheduling; priorities; contention; context- switches I. INTRODUCTION The advent of multicore architectures provides an attractive opportunity for achieving high performance for a wide variety of multithreaded applications. However, exploiting the system density, and the parallelism they offer, to improve performance of multithreaded applications is a challenging task. This is because multithreaded application performance is sensitive to the implementations of synchronization primitives and contention management policies. Therefore the key to achieving high performance for multithreaded applications running on multicore systems is to use appropriate synchronization primitives along with efficient contention management policies. Contention management policies are either based on spinning, or blocking, or a combination of both. Spinning resolves contention by busy waiting, therefore waiting threads respond to lock handoffs very quickly. However, spinning threads can wastes CPU resources and prevent the lock-holder thread from runnin.

Nitin and Priya Pathak came to your office for counseling, along with their 16-year-old son Sujay. Nitin and Priya are first generation Indian-American immigrants, while their son was born and raised in the United States. They were reluctant to engage in counseling, but are doing so at the request of Sujay. In Sujay’s view, his parents are being overly controlling regarding his upcoming choice of college, which is causing increasingly frequent clashes between him and his parents. Sujay wants to attend art school, while his parents want him to attend engineering school. They state that a career in science, religion, law, or medicine is the appropriate path for a person of his caste. Sujay claims that while he wants to please his parents, he feels they are stifling his passion and imposing cultural norms that, to him, are a part of their “world” and not his. You have little knowledge of Indian culture or the caste system and are unsure whether the issue at hand is a matter of controlling parents dealing with a life transition issue or a serious conflict involving social and cultural influences. .

Published in final edited form as: Psychosom Med. 2011 January ; 73(1): 67–74. doi:10.1097/PSY.0b013e3182002116. Modeling Social Influences on Human Health Kate Karelina, Ph.D.1 and A. Courtney DeVries, Ph.D.1,2 1 Department of Neuroscience, The Ohio State University, Columbus, OH 43210 USA 2 Institute of Behavioral Medicine Research, The Ohio State University, Columbus, OH 43210 USA Abstract Social interactions have long-term physiological, psychological and behavioral consequences. Social isolation is a well recognized but little understood risk factor and prognostic marker of disease, and can have profoundly detrimental effects on both mental and physical well-being, particularly during states of compromised health. In contrast, the health benefits associated with social support (both reduced risk and improved recovery) are evident in a variety of illnesses and injury states; however, the mechanisms by which social interactions influence disease pathogenesis remain largely unidentified. The substantial health impact of the psychosocial environment can occur independently of traditional disease risk factors and is not accounted for solely by peer-encouraged development of health behaviors. Instead, social interactions are capable of altering shared pathophysiological mechanisms of multiple disease states in distinct measurable ways. Converging evidence from animal models of injury and disease recapitulates the physiological benefits of affiliative social interactions and establishes several endogenous mechanisms (inflammatory signals, glucocorticoids and oxytocin) by which social interactions influence health outcomes. Taken together, both clinical and animal research are undoubtedly necessary in order to develop a complete mechanistic understanding of social influences on health. Keywords Social interaction; health; experimental models; oxytocin Social influences on health Social interactions shape humans from early development through senescence and have a strong impact on many aspects of physiology and behavior. Indeed, social interaction is essential for proper cognitive, affective and behavioral development (1). Among adults, the social environment remains an important determinant of health and well being; ample evidence suggests that positive social support accelerates and improves patient recovery from cancer, cerebrovascular and cardiovascular disease (CVD), atherosclerosis, and other chronic diseases with an inflammatory component (2–5). This has led to a substantial interest in the capacity to which the social environment affects physiological systems, particularly during health challenges. The benefits of a positive social environment are particularly salient in chronic disease st.

No directly quoted material may be used in this project paper. Final Project: Case Study Ethical dilemmas permeate the criminal justice. At every level, in each segment of the system, people are exercising discretion that will influence the fate of an individual and/or the security of the community. Incongruous laws, regulations, policies and practices create conflicts and distort the basis upon which judgments are made. Very often these conflicts result in an ethical dilemma. Which is the appropriate course of action? What is the moral/ethical rational for the decisions that were made? What purposes or principles are served? This project will ask you to consider a sequence of decisions (do, or not do) all of which contribute, directly or indirectly the final scene. For each of the three (3) scenarios , your assignment is to: Examine each situation and describe the ethical and/or moral question, Describe what you believe to be the motivation of the actor and the potential consequences of BOTH/EACH options, Identify the decision you believe the actor SHOULD make, and Provide the ethical basis for your decision. Connect the ethical basis for your decision to ethical theories introduced at the beginning of the course and explain the rational for this connection. Each decision must be considered separately and not be influenced by earlier decisions and/or actions. This project is an opportunity for the student to demonstrate their understanding of ethics and value-based decisions. Most of these situations do not have a single correct answer. Grading is NOT based on solving the problem that is presented to the actor but in identifying the ethical dilemmas and determining and explaining the most ethical course of action . ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. The judge Judge Jeffery Owens is very troubled by the felony case before him. The defendant, Woodrow Wilson, had been found guilty of armed robbery of a liquor store. The case alleged that Wilson had a handgun in plain sight when he entered the Sin-Yon liquor store, that he hit the owner in the head with the weapon and forced him to open the cash drawer. Fleeing the scene on foot, Woodrow only got a few blocks before responding police officers spotted him and made the arrest. The prosecutor, armed with the recovered cash, video surveillance and an eyewitness as evidence had an easy case. Now it is time for sentencing. Jeffery saw the demonstration of business owners in the hallway when he entered the courthouse that morning. They were chanting “Justice for our victims” and were demanding a lengthy prison sentence. The Pre-Sentence Investigation report said Wilson was suffering from acute addiction and associated mental problems that had caused these violent (but not criminal) outbreaks in the past. There is no information in the file that Wilson has ever received treatment for his disord.

NINE Why I Am Not Afraid to Die f ll II r I I I ,, -----~----- A FRIEND of mine, a clergyman I admire, turned to me once with a problem. A member of his congregation, a forty-two-year-old doctor, was hospitalized with an in- operable brain tumor. My friend said to me, "I don't know why, but I just can't bring myself to visit him. I like him, I care about him, I know how much my visits mean to him, but I keep finding reasons not to go and see him, and it bothers me." I told him, "I think I understand why you do that. I suspect that you see too much of yourself in him. Seeing him ill and dying makes you think that a year from now, it could be you in that situation, and you can't handle that. I would guess that you are afraid of dying-it's nothing to be ashamed of; lots of people are---and that is why seeing someone your own age dying is so hard for you to deal with. " "How do you get over the fear of dying?" he asked me. 1 told him that I was not ready to die, that I hoped to live ~or many more years, but that I was not afrai_d of dy!ng 1 ecause I felt satisfied with what I had done with my _hfe. ~ad the sense that I had not wasted it, that I had hved With int · · egnty, had done my best, and had an impact on 155 - WHEN ALL YOU'VE EV ER WANTED ISN'T E NO U GH eople which would outlast me. I poi~ted out to him that ~e could certai nly say the same thmgs about himself about his life and his work, th at he had already reached the level of living humanely . It is only when you are no lo nger afraid to die that you can say that you are truly alive . I believe th at it is not dying that people are afraid of. Something else, something more unsettling and more tragic than dying frightens us . We are afraid of never having lived, of coming to the end of our days with the sense that we were never really alive, that we never figured out what life was for . Of all the fears that haunt us, from fear of the dark when we are young to fear of snakes and high places, there is nothing to compare to the fear that we may have wasted our lives with nothing to show for it. I have attended many people at the end of their lives. Most of them wanted to live longer if they could. They did not want to leave their loved ones. But they were not afraid of death because they knew that they had had time to live and they had used that time well. Virtually the only people I have known who were afraid of dying were people who thought that they had wasted their lives. They would pray that if God would only give them another few years, they would use them more wisely than they had used all the years up till then . I can think of no punishment for a wasted life more fright- en ing than that, and no reward for a life well lived more grati fyi ng than the sense that you accepted the challenge to be human and were up to it. There is a story told of a man who died after having led a thoroughly selfi sh,.
