Week1 rainey chapter_1
This document provides an overview of key concepts in understanding and managing public organizations. It discusses that while public and private organizations share similarities, public organizations differ in important ways due to their unique political and social contexts. Specifically, it outlines a framework for analyzing organizations, including their goals and values, leadership and strategy, structures and processes, environments, tasks and technology, and the people within them. It also notes the ongoing debate around improving public management and the need for continued research integrating knowledge from diverse fields to better understand both the similarities and differences between public and private organizations.

SummaryThe national interest is examined through a constructivi.docx
The document summarizes an assignment for a nursing course that asks students to identify an area of the nursing process in need of change, choose a change theory to address the problem, and propose a detailed plan to implement the changes. Students must develop criteria to evaluate the effectiveness of the plan, include a timeline, and reflect on how the changes would affect the nursing profession. The assignment requires a 5-page paper citing at least two peer-reviewed sources, following APA style guidelines. It will be graded based on research, content, grammar/spelling, and proper use of references and formatting.
SummaryThe national interest is examined through a constructivi.docx
Summary:
The national interest is examined through a constructivist viewpoint by Weldes, who believes that realist arguments can not accurately explain the actions of the state in international politics. Melde believes that under the realist perspective, the national interest is too vague of a concept for analysts to correctly judge what actions a statesmen should take.In the realist perspective, the national interest also has the fault of the analyst being unaware of what the “national interest” truly is, since it is up to interpretation. Weldes’ constructivist approach claims that national interest are social constructs created by the state to understand their position with respect to the other states. The state creates these constructs to have a better understanding of what their goals are and the obstacles that may appear in the form of other states or other organizations. The social constructs are created as a way to have an understanding of the surroundings of the state. These surroundings can be identified as other states, non-state organizations, social movements, etc. They are then described in relation to their impact to the state, like being a threat, an ally, or neutral.
Key Terms:
National interest: helps to identify what is important in international politics and to legitimize the actions taken by the state in foreign affairs
“Security dilemma”: states remain in inevitable and perpetual competition without the existence of the supra-state
Quasi-causal: not focused on accurate cause and effect; relies on patterns that can be easily noticed and justified
Domino theory: cold war belief that having one state fall to communism will lead to surrounding states following the first one
Articulation: using keywords from the language to attribute to political situations and events; a catchphrase for political terms
Interpellation: generating recognition and identification; creating a national identity to give illusion of unified state towards a common goal
Individuals:
Steve Smith: “the national interest” is a malleable term that can be used to the advantage of any state that uses it as a defense for their actions
Hans Morgenthau: “the national interest” is a term that can be considered the focus of the states’ actions in international politics
Alexander Wendt: uses constructivist perspective; the interpretations of interests and objects dictate how the state will react to different situations, so national interest will have a fixed meaning with boundaries in place that are different from the situations of other states

· Is there consensus about the topic (subtopics)?
· What aspects have generated significant debate on the topic?
· What methods or problems were identified by others studying in the field?
· What is the current status of research in this area or what direction do researchers feel need to be addressed in the future?
How do you write a Literature Review?

Cyber Harassment
In many ways, social media platforms have created great benefits for our societies by expanding and diversifying the ways people communicate with each other, and yet these platforms also have the power to cause harm. Posting hurtful messages about other people is a form of harassment known as cyberbullying. Some acts of cyberbullying may not only be considered slanderous, but also lead to serious consequences. In 2010, Rutgers University student Tyler Clementi jumped to his death a few days after his roommate used a webcam to observe and tweet about Tyler’s sexual encounter with another man. Jane Clementi, Tyler’s mother, stated, “In this digital world, we need to teach our youngsters that their actions have consequences, that their words have real power to hurt or to help. They must be encouraged to choose to build people up and not tear them down.”
In 2013, Idalia Hernández Ramos, a middle school teacher in Mexico, was a victim of cyber harassment. After discovering that one of her students tweeted that the teacher was a “bitch” and a “whore,” Hernández confronted the girl during a lesson on social media etiquette. Inquiring why the girl would post such hurtful messages that could harm the teacher’s reputation, the student meekly replied that she was upset at the time. The teacher responded that she was very upset by the student’s actions. Demanding a public apology in front of the class, Hernández stated that she would not allow “young brats” to call her those names. Hernández uploaded a video of this confrontation online, attracting much attention.
While Hernández was subject to cyber harassment, some felt she went too far by confronting the student in the classroom.

Case Study: Chapter 10
Boss, We’ve got a problem
By Kayla Curry
Background
Charlie Upton was the most beloved citizen of the close knit village of Summit. Everyone knew and respected Charlie. As a 17 year veteran of the police department, he was valued and admired for his unyielding care for the community. Charlie Upton gained acclaim for his heavy involvement in youth activities. He coached the boys pee-wee football team to victory in back to back seasons. He was known to get passionate about a bad call by referees. Coach Upton cared so much for his team, he generously offered to reward the team with a trip to Disney World. The man was even President of the local school board at one time. The highlight of the Christmas season was when he would dress up as a convincing Santa Claus for all of Summit’s children and visit the elementary schools.
Cont.
Charlie Upton’s popularity within Summit was unparalleled. Upton was known to rub shoulders with the Village’s elite. Primarily Village Administrator Tim Bell, whose son was star quarterback of Upton’s pee-wee team, and his own boss Police Chief Martin Owens. It was safe to say, nobody was expecting the coming scandal that would forever shake the community of Summit.
When Chief Martin Owens first heard the news, he decided to run straight to Administrator Tim Bell for direction. Highly unsettled, together they came up with a plan to combat the coming storm.
Cont.
Chief Owens and Administrator Bell called Charlie Upton into the Chief’s office and demanded an explanation to the allegations brought against him. A 12 year old boy who was being treated by a social worker for emotional problems, claimed that he had been sexual molested by none other than the Department’s beloved Charlie Upton.
When confronted with the accusations Upton replied simply, “well, there goes 17 years of police work down the drain.” Taking Upton’s non-denial as admission of guilt, Bell furiously demands he surrenders his badge and places him on unpaid leave on the spot. An outside agency would handle a 3 week investigation into the charges and in the meantime nobody outside of those three parties would know why Charlie Upton was being investigated.
Cont.
The investigation was completed and Upton was charged with criminal sexual conduct with a minor. He was immediately terminated. Against legal advice Administrator Bell refused to pay Upton’s separation pay of $26,000 in unused vacation time and sick leave.
From that point, the Village of Summit turned into a political circus:
Anticipating tough questions, Bell and Owens crafted their responses ahead of time
Pending public announcement Administrator Bell held a closed door meeting with the Council informing them that the Officer in charge of youth offenses was a child molester
Three of the Council members didn’t believe Upton would do such a thing and demanded Bell put him back in a uniform and on the streets
When the public was made aware they went int.
CASE STUDY Caregiver Role Strain Ms. Sandra A. Sandra, a 47-year-o.docx
CASE STUDY: Caregiver Role Strain: Ms. Sandra A. Sandra, a 47-year-old divorced woman, received a diagnosis of stage 3 ovarian cancer 4 years ago, for which she had a total hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo- oophorectomy, omentectomy, lymphadenectomy, and tumor debulking followed by chemotherapy, consisting of cisplatin (Platinol), paclitaxel (Taxol), and doxorubicin (Adriamycin). She did well for 2 years and then moved back to her hometown near her family and underwent three more rounds of secondline chemotherapy. She accepted a less stressful job, bought a house, renewed old friendships, and became more involved with her two sisters and their families. Sandra developed several complications, including metastasis to the lungs. Then she could no longer work, drive, or care for herself. She had been told by her oncologist that there was nothing else that could be done and that she should consider entering a hospice. She met her attorney and prepared an advance directive and completed her will. She decided to have hospice care at home and, with the help of her family, set up her first floor as a living and sleeping area. She was cared for by family members around the clock for approximately 3 days. Sandra observed that she was tiring everyone out so much that they could not really enjoy each other’s company. At this time, she contacted the Visiting Nurse Association (VNA) to seek assistance. Her plan was to try to enjoy her family and friend’s visits. After assessment, the VNA nurse prioritized her problems to include fatigue and caregiver role strain. Other potential problem areas that may need to be incorporated into the care plan include anticipatory grieving and impaired comfort.
Reflective Questions
1. What are some of the stresses on Sandra’s middle-aged sisters and their families?
2. What resources are available to manage these stresses and support the sisters while caring for their dying sister Sandra?
3. Describe Sandra’s feelings about dependency and loss of autonomy because she is unable to do her own activities of daily living any longer

All other courses are in the general education setting with accommodations, modified grades (for some subjects), and push-in supports from the special education teacher at least three times per week for core courses requiring extensive reading and writing. He is currently decoding at the fifth grade reading level, but reading comprehension is at the third grade level. Fluency is at the fifth grade level.
Darren also has difficulty with written expression, and needs graphic organizers and pre-writing activities to help him develop a thesis statement and organize his written work. His handwriting is difficult to read and it takes him a long time to complete written assignments without assistive technology and software. He can be impulsive, and will sometimes miss important portions of written directions resulting in frequent errors on assignments. He frequently turns in assignments late or not at all. He needs assistance remembering to take his medication at school and at home. He has tried to pass a driver’s license exam so he can get a driver’s permit to learn how to drive. However, his impulsivity and reading ability have affected his performance and he has not been able to pass the written exam as required by the state motor vehicle department.
Darren loves cars. He can describe makes and models of practically any vehicle and describe the type of engine and standard features. He also helps his dad and older brother work on vehicles in the family’s car restoration business. Darren can wash the cars, detail the interior, and clean the windows. He has recently started doing oil changes with some supervision.
His parents are concerned about Darren’s impulsivity, his inability to remember directions, and his unrealistic views of his abilities. His mother is concerned about him needing prompts to brush his teeth, wear clean clothes, and comb his hair before leaving the house. He tends to blame others when he is not successful and makes excuses for not following through on responsibilities. His father expressed concern about Darren’s difficulty in putting tools away in the shop and cleaning up his work area after he changes the oil in a vehicle. Teachers express concern over late assignments, a reluctance to take responsibility for his own actions, and the need for constant prompts and reminders. Darren uses an electronic spelling dictionary and a word processor with word prediction software and spell check to complete assignments.
Darren’s parents indicated on a parent survey that they do not know if Darren would be eligible to receive adult services, social security, and they do not know how to contact adult service agencies.
During a student interview, Darren stated he wanted to become a professional foo.

Samantha Lizonia has been with Prestige Shipping for 35 years. As one of the first employees hired when the business launched, she has weathered many storms with the company, including receiving late paychecks, times of slow growth, a year where she worked 7 days a week without fail, and working for 4 years in a row without a vacation or sick day. As the office manager, she greets all visitors and is the first point of contact when customers and vendors calls. The CEO always praises Samantha and often states that without her diligence and faithfulness all those years they may not have survived.
Unfortunately, Samantha’s job performance has been declining. She has submitted reports untimely and unfinished, been late to work, and has become cold and difficult to work with. Coworkers and vendors complain about her rude comments and harsh demeanor. The CEO spoke to Samantha about her performance and behavior, but nothing has changed. Actually, she did not appreciate being reprimanded, and her behavior got worse. However, during their meeting, the CEO did find out that Samantha is planning on retiring in 2 years, and the value of her retirement savings plan has drastically declined.
If Samantha would have been any other employee, she would have been fired a long time ago. Because of her age, years of loyal service, lack of retirement savings, and the CEO’s commitment to continuing the family-like environment, this is a difficult choice. However, he knows that he must come to a decision about her soon.

Case Study AnalysisAn understanding of cells and cell behavi.docx
Case Study Analysis
An understanding of cells and cell behavior is a critically important component of disease diagnosis and treatment. But some diseases can be complex in nature, with a variety of factors and circumstances impacting their emergence and severity.
Effective disease analysis often requires an understanding that goes beyond isolated cell behavior. Genes, the environments in which cell processes operate, the impact of patient characteristics, and racial and ethnic variables all can have an important impact.
An understanding of the signals and symptoms of alterations in cellular processes is a critical step in the diagnosis and treatment of many diseases. For APRNs, this understanding can also help educate patients and guide them through their treatment plans.
In this Assignment, you examine a case study and analyze the symptoms presented. You identify cell, gene, and/or process elements that may be factors in the diagnosis, and you explain the implications to patient health.
Scenario: Case study
An 83-year-old resident of a skilled nursing facility presents to the emergency department with generalized edema of extremities and abdomen. History obtained from staff reveals the patient has history of malabsorption syndrome and difficulty eating due to lack of dentures. The patient has been diagnosed with protein malnutrition

Case Study Analysis and Findings
The final assignment for this course is a Case Study Analysis and Findings. The purpose of the Case Study Analysis and Findings is for you to utilize the knowledge and skills developed in this course to evaluate the psychological methods and theoretical models of criminal behavior as well as the police psychology and the psychological aspects of all participants in the criminal justice process relative to a specific criminal episode. An overview of forensic psychology as it relates to the criminal justice process should be included.
This course has addressed issues of psychological theory and practice relative to the functioning of the criminal justice system. These impacts range from the offender, to law enforcement and investigations, to practices and legalities of law in the courtroom, to the participation and impact of victims and witnesses, and to treatment and sentencing rendered in the correctional environment. Research continues regarding the biological, genetic, psychological, and social impacts on mental health and resulting behavior. These findings will continue to find their way into the legal implications of the psychological influences on behavior.
The focus of your Case Study Analysis and Findings paper will be based, in large part, on the weekly assignments you completed throughout the course. In each of the weekly assignments, you address a particular aspect of the overall criminal case and offender that you selected in Week 1.
In the Week 1 Literature Review assignment, you provide the resources necessary for each phase of your final analysis and findings.
In the Week 2 Case Summary and Offender Profile assignment, you provide an analysis of the behavior of the offender relative to the psychological history and evaluation of the offender.
In the Week 3 Investigative Psychology assignment, you provide an analysis of the behavior of the investigators including the analysis of the crime scene. This assignment also describes the psychological, behavioral, environmental, and cognitive factors that influence the investigation, including intervention strategies to reduce the impact of stress on law enforcement.
In the Week 4 Legal Psychology and Victimization assignment, you provide a discussion on the role of the psychological profile of the offender and the victims have on the presentation of evidence in court, including the analysis of legal psychology as it is implemented in the criminal justice process.
Finally, in the Week 5 Psychological Treatment in Correctional Settings assignment, you provide a discussion on the impacts the psychological make–up of offenders have on the functional responsibilities of incarceration facilities and how the biases and assumptions of correctional service providers influence their assessment of and interaction with these offenders.

Case Study Analysis A TutorialWhat is it Case studies are a .docx
Case Study Analysis: A Tutorial
What is it? Case studies are a popular and effective teaching tool for business and non-business students. Often described as the “Harvard method,” case studies permit students to apply learned concepts and techniques to “real world” situations. Although our assignments are individual work only, case studies may also allow students to use their knowledge of course material in addressing business/marketing problems or issues through collaboration (much as in the workplace). Case studies may be quite detailed or simple in scope. In some assignments, strong familiarity with financial analysis and operations management are needed to successfully complete the case.
How to be effective? For any case study assignment, common sense; research; and a good understanding of basic marketing/management concepts are needed. You should carefully read the case several times, highlighting information/details that you believe important. Understand what the assignment is requesting. In the Popchips and Grand Theft Auto cases, you are asked questions for response. In addressing each question, you should justify (document) your answer with case information and additional Internet research. All sources should be properly cited.
It is important that you do not assume anything. Many students err in case analysis by confusing personal opinion or inference (guess) with the facts presented in the case. It is permissible (and, often required) to supplement case information with various research methods (i.e., observation and/or Internet) gain a clearer understanding of the issues, forces, questions and requirements of the case. Rely on the text book and lecture notes to help you.
Put yourself in the case as the key decision maker(s). What needs to be addressed concerning marketing? What could have been done differently? What should the marketing strategy (plan) be going forward? Be prepared to explain your reasoning.
Most importantly, don’t procrastinate on this assignment. Your time well-spent will result in a well-done report.
In summary, to complete a case study assignment successfully, you must:
1. Read the case thoroughly several times.
2. Complete independent research about the case issue/topic.
3. Identify and verify sources.
4. Answer the questions contained in the case with completeness and accuracy using case and research information.
5. Write your report and proof it for grammar, spelling and punctuation mistakes.

Case Study: Alcohol
Certain occasional behaviors can cause more trouble than one might think. For many college students, drinking does not seem dangerous and is often viewed as a normal. Alcohol absorption and factors involved with alcohol metabolism are rarely discussed.
Review the following case study and answer the questions in essay format.
Paulo is a sophomore in college. On the weekends he goes out with his friends and will have anywhere from 5-8 drinks during the evening. Paulo met his friends during freshman year and they all agree that drinking is part of the college experience. Paulo always has a hangover after a big night of drinking, but doesn't think it's an issue because he never drinks on the weekdays and it isn't affecting his schoolwork. On a football weekend that included a lot of drinking, one of Paulo's friends, Luke, got into a fight and ended up in the emergency room. The doctor told Luke his Blood Alcohol Concentration was so high that he nearly had alcohol poisoning. Although Paulo knew drinking and driving could be dangerous, Paulo was surprised that the doctor warned Luke about "binge drinking." Paulo began to wonder whether his drinking was affecting his own health.
How common is binge drinking in college? What factors increase an individual's risk for the short and long term effects of alcohol? Why do college students like Paulo feel it is part of the college experience to drink regularly? What should universities, parents, friends, and others do to address high risk drinking and to change these behaviors?

Case Study 9
Running head: BP & THE GULF OF MEXICO OIL SPILL
Case Study: BP & The Gulf of Mexico Oil Spill
Central Michigan University
Organizational Dynamics & Human Behavior – MSA 601
Abstract
This paper will focus on the monumental disaster and ensuing public relations nightmare of British Petroleum (BP). This disaster of course was brought about by the oil rig explosion and fire in the Gulf of Mexico. BP is a multinational conglomerate of gargantuan proportions. They have molded and perfected their public image over decades. This paper will take a look at the lapses in BP’s management and public relations efforts and what measures the company should have taken.
BP & the Gulf of Mexico Oil Spill
The reason that the authors selected to evaluate British Petroleum (BP) for a case study was due in no small part to the endless media attention given to the oil spill in the Gulf. BP is an extremely popular brand that everyone in this country undoubtedly is effected by in one way or another. One of the initial reasons for choosing BP was the unmitigated disaster put forth on the public relations front in explaining the company’s efforts at dealing with the Gulf of Mexico oil crisis. The authors were further intrigued at this assignment for the poor leadership and decision making acumen of the former CEO Tony Hayward (CMU, 2009, p. 227). With this multi-focal approach, the study will highlight the conflicting messaging presented to the public and the lackluster and ultimately ineffective leadership within the organization.
BP is a huge multinational conglomerate whose primary focus is the petroleum industry. The company does business in over 30 countries around the globe. Its annual operating income is $239 billion dollars with over $14 billion dollars in profit in the year 2009. The company employs over 80,300 individuals and owns 16 refineries worldwide. BP operates several subsidiaries under the names AM/PM markets, BP and ARCO gas stations, Aral gas stations in Germany, Wild Bean Café, and Castrol Motor Oil (BP at a glance, 2010).
The competition within the petroleum industry is not as plentiful as one might think. There are actually very few players in the game. Due to the limited number of refiners of crude in this country the oil from various sources are blended prior to coming to the consumer. BP doesn’t have much use for the service station business anymore. In 2007, it announced plans to sell the last 700 stations that it hadn’t already sold to franchisees. The company chose to focus on finding and collecting oil. Once companies make a discovery, it comes out of the ground and ends up at a refinery. There, it can be mixed with oil that a variety of companies have poured into the tanks. This is further evidenced by BP’s plans to divest itself of its remaining 700 gas service stations. The highest percentage of income is made from oil exploration and extraction and not in the selling of gasoline at its stations (Lieber, 2010).

The document summarizes an assignment for a nursing course that asks students to identify an area of the nursing process in need of change, choose a change theory to address the problem, and propose a detailed plan to implement the changes. Students must develop criteria to evaluate the effectiveness of the plan, include a timeline, and reflect on how the changes would affect the nursing profession. The assignment requires a 5-page paper citing at least two peer-reviewed sources, following APA style guidelines. It will be graded based on research, content, grammar/spelling, and proper use of references and formatting.
SummaryThe national interest is examined through a constructivi.docx
Summary:
The national interest is examined through a constructivist viewpoint by Weldes, who believes that realist arguments can not accurately explain the actions of the state in international politics. Melde believes that under the realist perspective, the national interest is too vague of a concept for analysts to correctly judge what actions a statesmen should take.In the realist perspective, the national interest also has the fault of the analyst being unaware of what the “national interest” truly is, since it is up to interpretation. Weldes’ constructivist approach claims that national interest are social constructs created by the state to understand their position with respect to the other states. The state creates these constructs to have a better understanding of what their goals are and the obstacles that may appear in the form of other states or other organizations. The social constructs are created as a way to have an understanding of the surroundings of the state. These surroundings can be identified as other states, non-state organizations, social movements, etc. They are then described in relation to their impact to the state, like being a threat, an ally, or neutral.
Key Terms:
National interest: helps to identify what is important in international politics and to legitimize the actions taken by the state in foreign affairs
“Security dilemma”: states remain in inevitable and perpetual competition without the existence of the supra-state
Quasi-causal: not focused on accurate cause and effect; relies on patterns that can be easily noticed and justified
Domino theory: cold war belief that having one state fall to communism will lead to surrounding states following the first one
Articulation: using keywords from the language to attribute to political situations and events; a catchphrase for political terms
Interpellation: generating recognition and identification; creating a national identity to give illusion of unified state towards a common goal
Individuals:
Steve Smith: “the national interest” is a malleable term that can be used to the advantage of any state that uses it as a defense for their actions
Hans Morgenthau: “the national interest” is a term that can be considered the focus of the states’ actions in international politics
Alexander Wendt: uses constructivist perspective; the interpretations of interests and objects dictate how the state will react to different situations, so national interest will have a fixed meaning with boundaries in place that are different from the situations of other states

Cyber Harassment
In many ways, social media platforms have created great benefits for our societies by expanding and diversifying the ways people communicate with each other, and yet these platforms also have the power to cause harm. Posting hurtful messages about other people is a form of harassment known as cyberbullying. Some acts of cyberbullying may not only be considered slanderous, but also lead to serious consequences. In 2010, Rutgers University student Tyler Clementi jumped to his death a few days after his roommate used a webcam to observe and tweet about Tyler’s sexual encounter with another man. Jane Clementi, Tyler’s mother, stated, “In this digital world, we need to teach our youngsters that their actions have consequences, that their words have real power to hurt or to help. They must be encouraged to choose to build people up and not tear them down.”
In 2013, Idalia Hernández Ramos, a middle school teacher in Mexico, was a victim of cyber harassment. After discovering that one of her students tweeted that the teacher was a “bitch” and a “whore,” Hernández confronted the girl during a lesson on social media etiquette. Inquiring why the girl would post such hurtful messages that could harm the teacher’s reputation, the student meekly replied that she was upset at the time. The teacher responded that she was very upset by the student’s actions. Demanding a public apology in front of the class, Hernández stated that she would not allow “young brats” to call her those names. Hernández uploaded a video of this confrontation online, attracting much attention.
While Hernández was subject to cyber harassment, some felt she went too far by confronting the student in the classroom.

Case Study: Chapter 10
Boss, We’ve got a problem
By Kayla Curry
Background
Charlie Upton was the most beloved citizen of the close knit village of Summit. Everyone knew and respected Charlie. As a 17 year veteran of the police department, he was valued and admired for his unyielding care for the community. Charlie Upton gained acclaim for his heavy involvement in youth activities. He coached the boys pee-wee football team to victory in back to back seasons. He was known to get passionate about a bad call by referees. Coach Upton cared so much for his team, he generously offered to reward the team with a trip to Disney World. The man was even President of the local school board at one time. The highlight of the Christmas season was when he would dress up as a convincing Santa Claus for all of Summit’s children and visit the elementary schools.
Cont.
Charlie Upton’s popularity within Summit was unparalleled. Upton was known to rub shoulders with the Village’s elite. Primarily Village Administrator Tim Bell, whose son was star quarterback of Upton’s pee-wee team, and his own boss Police Chief Martin Owens. It was safe to say, nobody was expecting the coming scandal that would forever shake the community of Summit.
When Chief Martin Owens first heard the news, he decided to run straight to Administrator Tim Bell for direction. Highly unsettled, together they came up with a plan to combat the coming storm.
Cont.
Chief Owens and Administrator Bell called Charlie Upton into the Chief’s office and demanded an explanation to the allegations brought against him. A 12 year old boy who was being treated by a social worker for emotional problems, claimed that he had been sexual molested by none other than the Department’s beloved Charlie Upton.
When confronted with the accusations Upton replied simply, “well, there goes 17 years of police work down the drain.” Taking Upton’s non-denial as admission of guilt, Bell furiously demands he surrenders his badge and places him on unpaid leave on the spot. An outside agency would handle a 3 week investigation into the charges and in the meantime nobody outside of those three parties would know why Charlie Upton was being investigated.
Cont.
The investigation was completed and Upton was charged with criminal sexual conduct with a minor. He was immediately terminated. Against legal advice Administrator Bell refused to pay Upton’s separation pay of $26,000 in unused vacation time and sick leave.
From that point, the Village of Summit turned into a political circus:
Anticipating tough questions, Bell and Owens crafted their responses ahead of time
Pending public announcement Administrator Bell held a closed door meeting with the Council informing them that the Officer in charge of youth offenses was a child molester
Three of the Council members didn’t believe Upton would do such a thing and demanded Bell put him back in a uniform and on the streets
When the public was made aware they went int.
CASE STUDY Caregiver Role Strain Ms. Sandra A. Sandra, a 47-year-o.docx
CASE STUDY: Caregiver Role Strain: Ms. Sandra A. Sandra, a 47-year-old divorced woman, received a diagnosis of stage 3 ovarian cancer 4 years ago, for which she had a total hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo- oophorectomy, omentectomy, lymphadenectomy, and tumor debulking followed by chemotherapy, consisting of cisplatin (Platinol), paclitaxel (Taxol), and doxorubicin (Adriamycin). She did well for 2 years and then moved back to her hometown near her family and underwent three more rounds of secondline chemotherapy. She accepted a less stressful job, bought a house, renewed old friendships, and became more involved with her two sisters and their families. Sandra developed several complications, including metastasis to the lungs. Then she could no longer work, drive, or care for herself. She had been told by her oncologist that there was nothing else that could be done and that she should consider entering a hospice. She met her attorney and prepared an advance directive and completed her will. She decided to have hospice care at home and, with the help of her family, set up her first floor as a living and sleeping area. She was cared for by family members around the clock for approximately 3 days. Sandra observed that she was tiring everyone out so much that they could not really enjoy each other’s company. At this time, she contacted the Visiting Nurse Association (VNA) to seek assistance. Her plan was to try to enjoy her family and friend’s visits. After assessment, the VNA nurse prioritized her problems to include fatigue and caregiver role strain. Other potential problem areas that may need to be incorporated into the care plan include anticipatory grieving and impaired comfort.
Reflective Questions
1. What are some of the stresses on Sandra’s middle-aged sisters and their families?
2. What resources are available to manage these stresses and support the sisters while caring for their dying sister Sandra?
3. Describe Sandra’s feelings about dependency and loss of autonomy because she is unable to do her own activities of daily living any longer

All other courses are in the general education setting with accommodations, modified grades (for some subjects), and push-in supports from the special education teacher at least three times per week for core courses requiring extensive reading and writing. He is currently decoding at the fifth grade reading level, but reading comprehension is at the third grade level. Fluency is at the fifth grade level.
Darren also has difficulty with written expression, and needs graphic organizers and pre-writing activities to help him develop a thesis statement and organize his written work. His handwriting is difficult to read and it takes him a long time to complete written assignments without assistive technology and software. He can be impulsive, and will sometimes miss important portions of written directions resulting in frequent errors on assignments. He frequently turns in assignments late or not at all. He needs assistance remembering to take his medication at school and at home. He has tried to pass a driver’s license exam so he can get a driver’s permit to learn how to drive. However, his impulsivity and reading ability have affected his performance and he has not been able to pass the written exam as required by the state motor vehicle department.
Darren loves cars. He can describe makes and models of practically any vehicle and describe the type of engine and standard features. He also helps his dad and older brother work on vehicles in the family’s car restoration business. Darren can wash the cars, detail the interior, and clean the windows. He has recently started doing oil changes with some supervision.
His parents are concerned about Darren’s impulsivity, his inability to remember directions, and his unrealistic views of his abilities. His mother is concerned about him needing prompts to brush his teeth, wear clean clothes, and comb his hair before leaving the house. He tends to blame others when he is not successful and makes excuses for not following through on responsibilities. His father expressed concern about Darren’s difficulty in putting tools away in the shop and cleaning up his work area after he changes the oil in a vehicle. Teachers express concern over late assignments, a reluctance to take responsibility for his own actions, and the need for constant prompts and reminders. Darren uses an electronic spelling dictionary and a word processor with word prediction software and spell check to complete assignments.
Darren’s parents indicated on a parent survey that they do not know if Darren would be eligible to receive adult services, social security, and they do not know how to contact adult service agencies.

Samantha Lizonia has been with Prestige Shipping for 35 years. As one of the first employees hired when the business launched, she has weathered many storms with the company, including receiving late paychecks, times of slow growth, a year where she worked 7 days a week without fail, and working for 4 years in a row without a vacation or sick day. As the office manager, she greets all visitors and is the first point of contact when customers and vendors calls. The CEO always praises Samantha and often states that without her diligence and faithfulness all those years they may not have survived.
Unfortunately, Samantha’s job performance has been declining. She has submitted reports untimely and unfinished, been late to work, and has become cold and difficult to work with. Coworkers and vendors complain about her rude comments and harsh demeanor. The CEO spoke to Samantha about her performance and behavior, but nothing has changed. Actually, she did not appreciate being reprimanded, and her behavior got worse. However, during their meeting, the CEO did find out that Samantha is planning on retiring in 2 years, and the value of her retirement savings plan has drastically declined.
If Samantha would have been any other employee, she would have been fired a long time ago. Because of her age, years of loyal service, lack of retirement savings, and the CEO’s commitment to continuing the family-like environment, this is a difficult choice. However, he knows that he must come to a decision about her soon.

Case Study AnalysisAn understanding of cells and cell behavi.docx
Case Study Analysis
An understanding of cells and cell behavior is a critically important component of disease diagnosis and treatment. But some diseases can be complex in nature, with a variety of factors and circumstances impacting their emergence and severity.
Effective disease analysis often requires an understanding that goes beyond isolated cell behavior. Genes, the environments in which cell processes operate, the impact of patient characteristics, and racial and ethnic variables all can have an important impact.
An understanding of the signals and symptoms of alterations in cellular processes is a critical step in the diagnosis and treatment of many diseases. For APRNs, this understanding can also help educate patients and guide them through their treatment plans.
In this Assignment, you examine a case study and analyze the symptoms presented. You identify cell, gene, and/or process elements that may be factors in the diagnosis, and you explain the implications to patient health.
Scenario: Case study
An 83-year-old resident of a skilled nursing facility presents to the emergency department with generalized edema of extremities and abdomen. History obtained from staff reveals the patient has history of malabsorption syndrome and difficulty eating due to lack of dentures. The patient has been diagnosed with protein malnutrition

Case Study Analysis and Findings
The final assignment for this course is a Case Study Analysis and Findings. The purpose of the Case Study Analysis and Findings is for you to utilize the knowledge and skills developed in this course to evaluate the psychological methods and theoretical models of criminal behavior as well as the police psychology and the psychological aspects of all participants in the criminal justice process relative to a specific criminal episode. An overview of forensic psychology as it relates to the criminal justice process should be included.
This course has addressed issues of psychological theory and practice relative to the functioning of the criminal justice system. These impacts range from the offender, to law enforcement and investigations, to practices and legalities of law in the courtroom, to the participation and impact of victims and witnesses, and to treatment and sentencing rendered in the correctional environment. Research continues regarding the biological, genetic, psychological, and social impacts on mental health and resulting behavior. These findings will continue to find their way into the legal implications of the psychological influences on behavior.
The focus of your Case Study Analysis and Findings paper will be based, in large part, on the weekly assignments you completed throughout the course. In each of the weekly assignments, you address a particular aspect of the overall criminal case and offender that you selected in Week 1.
In the Week 1 Literature Review assignment, you provide the resources necessary for each phase of your final analysis and findings.
In the Week 2 Case Summary and Offender Profile assignment, you provide an analysis of the behavior of the offender relative to the psychological history and evaluation of the offender.

Case Study Analysis A TutorialWhat is it Case studies are a .docx
Case Study Analysis: A Tutorial
What is it? Case studies are a popular and effective teaching tool for business and non-business students. Often described as the “Harvard method,” case studies permit students to apply learned concepts and techniques to “real world” situations. Although our assignments are individual work only, case studies may also allow students to use their knowledge of course material in addressing business/marketing problems or issues through collaboration (much as in the workplace). Case studies may be quite detailed or simple in scope. In some assignments, strong familiarity with financial analysis and operations management are needed to successfully complete the case.
How to be effective? For any case study assignment, common sense; research; and a good understanding of basic marketing/management concepts are needed. You should carefully read the case several times, highlighting information/details that you believe important. Understand what the assignment is requesting. In the Popchips and Grand Theft Auto cases, you are asked questions for response. In addressing each question, you should justify (document) your answer with case information and additional Internet research. All sources should be properly cited.
It is important that you do not assume anything. Many students err in case analysis by confusing personal opinion or inference (guess) with the facts presented in the case. It is permissible (and, often required) to supplement case information with various research methods (i.e., observation and/or Internet) gain a clearer understanding of the issues, forces, questions and requirements of the case. Rely on the text book and lecture notes to help you.
Put yourself in the case as the key decision maker(s). What needs to be addressed concerning marketing? What could have been done differently? What should the marketing strategy (plan) be going forward? Be prepared to explain your reasoning.
Most importantly, don’t procrastinate on this assignment. Your time well-spent will result in a well-done report.
In summary, to complete a case study assignment successfully, you must:
1. Read the case thoroughly several times.
2. Complete independent research about the case issue/topic.
3. Identify and verify sources.
4. Answer the questions contained in the case with completeness and accuracy using case and research information.
5. Write your report and proof it for grammar, spelling and punctuation mistakes.

Case Study: Alcohol
Certain occasional behaviors can cause more trouble than one might think. For many college students, drinking does not seem dangerous and is often viewed as a normal. Alcohol absorption and factors involved with alcohol metabolism are rarely discussed.
Review the following case study and answer the questions in essay format.
Paulo is a sophomore in college. On the weekends he goes out with his friends and will have anywhere from 5-8 drinks during the evening. Paulo met his friends during freshman year and they all agree that drinking is part of the college experience. Paulo always has a hangover after a big night of drinking, but doesn't think it's an issue because he never drinks on the weekdays and it isn't affecting his schoolwork. On a football weekend that included a lot of drinking, one of Paulo's friends, Luke, got into a fight and ended up in the emergency room. The doctor told Luke his Blood Alcohol Concentration was so high that he nearly had alcohol poisoning. Although Paulo knew drinking and driving could be dangerous, Paulo was surprised that the doctor warned Luke about "binge drinking." Paulo began to wonder whether his drinking was affecting his own health.
How common is binge drinking in college? What factors increase an individual's risk for the short and long term effects of alcohol? Why do college students like Paulo feel it is part of the college experience to drink regularly? What should universities, parents, friends, and others do to address high risk drinking and to change these behaviors?

Running head: BP & THE GULF OF MEXICO OIL SPILL
Case Study: BP & The Gulf of Mexico Oil Spill
Central Michigan University
Organizational Dynamics & Human Behavior – MSA 601
Abstract
This paper will focus on the monumental disaster and ensuing public relations nightmare of British Petroleum (BP). This disaster of course was brought about by the oil rig explosion and fire in the Gulf of Mexico. BP is a multinational conglomerate of gargantuan proportions. They have molded and perfected their public image over decades. This paper will take a look at the lapses in BP’s management and public relations efforts and what measures the company should have taken.
BP & the Gulf of Mexico Oil Spill
The reason that the authors selected to evaluate British Petroleum (BP) for a case study was due in no small part to the endless media attention given to the oil spill in the Gulf. BP is an extremely popular brand that everyone in this country undoubtedly is effected by in one way or another. One of the initial reasons for choosing BP was the unmitigated disaster put forth on the public relations front in explaining the company’s efforts at dealing with the Gulf of Mexico oil crisis. The authors were further intrigued at this assignment for the poor leadership and decision making acumen of the former CEO Tony Hayward (CMU, 2009, p. 227). With this multi-focal approach, the study will highlight the conflicting messaging presented to the public and the lackluster and ultimately ineffective leadership within the organization.
BP is a huge multinational conglomerate whose primary focus is the petroleum industry. The company does business in over 30 countries around the globe. Its annual operating income is $239 billion dollars with over $14 billion dollars in profit in the year 2009. The company employs over 80,300 individuals and owns 16 refineries worldwide. BP operates several subsidiaries under the names AM/PM markets, BP and ARCO gas stations, Aral gas stations in Germany, Wild Bean Café, and Castrol Motor Oil (BP at a glance, 2010).
The competition within the petroleum industry is not as plentiful as one might think. There are actually very few players in the game. Due to the limited number of refiners of crude in this country the oil from various sources are blended prior to coming to the consumer. BP doesn’t have much use for the service station business anymore. In 2007, it announced plans to sell the last 700 stations that it hadn’t already sold to franchisees. The company chose to focus on finding and collecting oil. Once companies make a discovery, it comes out of the ground and ends up at a refinery. There, it can be mixed with oil that a variety of companies have poured into the tanks. This is further evidenced by BP’s plans to divest itself of its remaining 700 gas service stations. The highest percentage of income is made from oil exploration and extraction and not in the selling of gasoline at its stations (Lieber, 2010).

Case Study 8.1 Team DenialEmory University Holocaust studies pr.docx
Case Study 8.1: Team Denial
Emory University Holocaust studies professor Deborah Lipstadt faced an uphill battle when she was sued by British amateur historian David Irving in 1995. Irving was the world’s best known Holocaust denier. He claimed that Hitler didn’t order the killing of Jews. Instead, the Führer’s subordinates acted on their own, without his knowledge. Irving’s most audacious assertion was that no Jews and other victims were gassed at the Auschwitz concentration camp. He denied that there were gas chambers. Instead, deaths were caused by typhus and other illnesses, not murder. Speaking before neo-Nazi groups, Irving declared that more people died in the back of Senator Edward Kennedy’s car (one young woman) than were deliberately killed at Auschwitz.
In her book Denying the Holocaust: The Growing Assault on Truth and Memory, professor Lipstadt called Irving “a Hitler partisan wearing blinkers” who distorted historical evidence to “reach historically untenable conclusions.”1 Irving then threatened to sue unless she retracted her comments. He likely thought she would settle out of court. Not Lipstadt. Surrender would give deniers a victory, meaning a “second death” to the victims of Auschwitz and other Jews who perished under the Nazis. But Irving had the upper hand. Under British law, Lipstadt had to defend herself from the allegations. (In the United States, accusers have to prove that they have been libeled and defamed.) The lengthy court case would cost over a million dollars to fight and would be held in London, thousands of miles from Atlanta, where Lipstadt taught.
Fortunately for Dr. Lipstadt, others rallied to her cause. Emory gave her financial support and paid leave while hiring adjuncts to teach her classes. (School officials believed that canceling Holocaust courses would be a victory for Irving.) Penguin, her publisher, provided legal and financial support and Jewish groups raised money for her defense. Most important, she gained the support of a top-notch legal team who believed in her cause. This team included (1) those who prepared her case—a team of researchers who gathered information and the attorneys who assembled court documents; and (2) a pair of barristers who argued in front of the judge. (In Britain, one set of attorneys prepares the case while a different set of attorneys presents the case in court.) Lipstadt needed all the help she could get. Preparation for the trial took five years. Researchers had to sift through thousands of documents checking footnotes as well as hundreds of Irving’s personal diaries. They generated an eight-foot-tall stack of trial notebooks.
The legal team decided to put Irving on trial, demonstrating how he systematically altered historical evidence to support his anti-Semitic views. That meant that Deborah wouldn’t testify, turning her into a spectator at her own trial. Lipstadt, a skilled public speaker, objected to these restrictions but eventually gave in. She said, “Being q.

Case Study 7: Solving Team Challenges at DocSystems Billing, Inc.
Read the DocSystems Billing case, including the briefing document and four scenes, and consider the following questions:
What problems exist in this organization? How do these problems differ based on the employees’ roles? Why do employees object to Jim’s proposed solution?
Make a recommendation to the client about what could be done next based on the data included. Summarize your observations for Jim, offer possible interpretations, and suggest an approach for next steps.
Briefing Document: DocSystems Billing, Inc.
About the Company
DocSystems Billing, Inc., processes insurance billing paperwork for a network of small health care clinics throughout the United States. Privately owned physician practices, as well as specialists such as cardiologists and physical therapists, contract with DocSystems to process the billing paperwork through the maze of health care insurance companies and networks. DocSystems charges either a flat fee for each bill it processes or a percentage of the total, depending on the contract with the provider.
About the Call Center
Forty full-time employees work at the onsite call center: 30 Medical Insurance Specialists (who handle cases of moderate complexity) and 10 Senior Insurance Consultants (who handle very complex cases). The senior consultants have usually worked up through the ranks, often first working on basic billing, then as medical insurance specialists. Most of them have a long tenure with DocSystems, ranging from 17 to 23 years.
An additional 100 employees (called Billing Specialists) work at an outsourced call center. DocSystems contracts out the initial processing of claims and basic computer input. The contract employees used to work at DocSystems until the outsourcing.
285
The call center was outsourced a year ago to another organization. Almost all of the former DocSystems employees were offered jobs with the new company, but the pay and benefits were not comparable. Word has spread to the former colleagues who remain at DocSystems that the outsourcing company treats its employees poorly.
Call Center Reorganization
The remaining group of 40 employees was reorganized into two new teams about 3 months ago. Initially, there had been two managers—Alex managed the senior insurance consultants, and Dana managed the medical insurance specialists. Both reported to Jim, the senior director. In the new structure, Alex and Dana both manage 20 employees, with each managing half of the specialists and half of the consultants.
That meant that some of each group remained with their former manager, while some moved to a new manager. Senior management hoped that the integrated teams would start to share knowledge between more senior and more junior practitioners.
Roles and Work Process
Billing Specialist
The billing specialists do the initial computer input and handle the majority of the cases. Normally this occurs without any need .
Case Study 5.2 Hiding the Real Story at Midwestern Community Acti.docx
Case Study 5.2: Hiding the Real Story at Midwestern Community Action
Recently, life at Midwestern Community Action has been anything but smooth. The nonprofit runs a variety of programs in a midsized city, including preschools, teen drop-in centers, a food pantry, a medical clinic, and low-income housing. Health problems forced founding executive director Sally May, who was well loved by staff, to quit after 20 years in her position. The board then appointed Josiah Lang, who had served as the manager of a local government service agency, as the next executive director.
When Lang arrived at Community Action, he discovered that May had been a hands-off leader. She allowed coordinators to run their programs without much supervision. Used to operating on their own, they resisted Lang’s efforts to institute performance evaluations, to evaluate the effectiveness of each program, and to reallocate funds between programs. It didn’t help that Lang made little effort to get to know his subordinates and has an abrasive personality. Three coordinators and a half dozen front-line staff quit. Lang has the support of the board, which believes that the organization needs more structure and accountability, but staff morale is low. Employees have lost faith in the organization’s leadership. However, they remain committed to helping the disadvantaged and to Community Action’s mission. For that reason, they largely keep their frustrations to themselves and are careful to protect the organization’s public image. Community Action continues to be well regarded by clients, government officials, donors, and the public at large.
This week Community Action will interview an applicant for its housing coordinator position, a vacancy created when the previous coordinator left in frustration. This is the most important open position to fill. The housing coordinator oversees three apartment complexes with 200 tenants and manages the most employees. Failure to fill the vacancy soon could reduce Community Action’s outreach to the homeless. The applicant, Albert Singh, appears to be highly qualified. If he takes the position, Singh will move his family from out of state. He has no idea that Community Action is dealing with significant conflict and poor morale.
Singh will make a brief presentation to the entire staff during his visit and then meet for an extended time with the current program coordinators. During this session, the coordinators (without the director present) will question him and present an overview of Community Action. Albert will also have an opportunity to ask questions of the coordinators.
Discussion Probes
1. What ethical duties are in conflict in this situation?
2. Are Community Action employees justified in keeping their concerns “in house,” out of the public eye? Why or why not?
3. If you were one of the current program coordinators, how much would you reveal about the turmoil at Community Action to Singh?
4. As a coordinator, what would you say if Singh.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems
9
Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
