The Futile Pursuit of Happiness By Jon Gertner · Sept. 7, 2003 · If Daniel Gilbert is right, then you are wrong. That is to say, if Daniel Gilbert is right, then you are wrong to believe that a new car will make you as happy as you imagine. You are wrong to believe that a new kitchen will make you happy for as long as you imagine. You are wrong to think that you will be more unhappy with a big single setback (a broken wrist, a broken heart) than with a lesser chronic one (a trick knee, a tense marriage). You are wrong to assume that job failure will be crushing. You are wrong to expect that a death in the family will leave you bereft for year upon year, forever and ever. You are even wrong to reckon that a cheeseburger you order in a restaurant -- this week, next week, a year from now, it doesn't really matter when -- will definitely hit the spot. That's because when it comes to predicting exactly how you will feel in the future, you are most likely wrong. A professor in Harvard's department of psychology, Gilbert likes to tell people that he studies happiness. But it would be more precise to say that Gilbert -- along with the psychologist Tim Wilson of the University of Virginia, the economist George Loewenstein of Carnegie-Mellon and the psychologist (and Nobel laureate in economics) Daniel Kahneman of Princeton -- has taken the lead in studying a specific type of emotional and behavioral prediction. In the past few years, these four men have begun to question the decision-making process that shapes our sense of well-being: how do we predict what will make us happy or unhappy -- and then how do we feel after the actual experience? For example, how do we suppose we'll feel if our favorite college football team wins or loses, and then how do we really feel a few days after the game? How do we predict we'll feel about purchasing jewelry, having children, buying a big house or being rich? And then how do we regard the outcomes? According to this small corps of academics, almost all actions -- the decision to buy jewelry, have kids, buy the big house or work exhaustively for a fatter paycheck -- are based on our predictions of the emotional consequences of these events. Until recently, this was uncharted territory. How we forecast our feelings, and whether those predictions match our future emotional states, had never been the stuff of laboratory research. But in scores of experiments, Gilbert, Wilson, Kahneman and Loewenstein have made a slew of observations and conclusions that undermine a number of fundamental assumptions: namely, that we humans understand what we want and are adept at improving our well-being -- that we are good at maximizing our utility, in the jargon of traditional economics. Further, their work on prediction raises some unsettling and somewhat more personal questions. To understand affective forecasting, as Gilbert has termed these studies, is to wonder if everything you have ever thought about life choices, and about h.

The Fraud Triangle and Hacking The fraud triangle exists when three elements are in place at a business – opportunity, pressure, and rationalization. Opportunity for fraud is usually present in organizations with weak (or few) internal controls. Pressure to commit fraud may come from outside sources (i.e. the boss wants to make sure EPS meets investor expectations) or could be internally driven (i.e. a person that has personal financial troubles). Once these first two elements are in place, a fraudster will commit fraud if they can rationalize it to themselves. What motives do people have for hacking? Why has it become so popular in recent years? PLEASE POST 200 WORDS WITH REFERENCES .

The freedom of the press was included in the First Amendment to guarantee citizens’ access to news and information. Americans largely rely on the mass media to learn about what is going on in government and in the wider world. Throughout American history, the public’s access to objective reporting has been threatened by partisan bias in the press, sensationalism, and attempts by the government to regulate the media. Additionally, political campaigns and politicians have long attempted to circumvent and control media coverage. And, in the contemporary era, new trends such as narrowcasting and media consolidation are seen by some as threats to the public’s ability to become informed. Your essay must contain the following information: What about today’s media environment do you believe is the greatest obstacle to an enlightened public? Why? Provide a definition of this obstacle. Use references from the text. Provide two (2) recent examples of this threat. Describe how it impeded the public from becoming informed. Paper requirements You must have a very clear thesis statement . · You must provide support for your thesis that is based on evidence (Legal, Empirical, Moral, Political) · You must use a minimum of two outside sources .

The Fracturing of the New Deal Coalition The “credibility” issue: Many will increasingly distrust what their government tells them. The Vietnam War will indicate to many that their government cannot be trusted. In the 1950s, many regarded the government as the engine of growth. Between the 1950s and 1960s, however, many began to grow suspicious of government action. Rather than providing for an improved McCarthyism Student Activism Students for a More Democratic Society “The Port Huron Statement,” 1962 “We are people of this generation, bred in at least modest comfort, housed now in universities, looking uncomfortably to the world we inherit.” Answering a Question on the Review Sheet!!! How did fear of foreign communism help to shape post-war American culture? Why were many concerned that the effort to fight communism overseas my have a negative impact on Freedom and democracy at home? The Civil Rights Era or the Black Freedom Movement Historians have had a tendency to isolate the events of the late 1950s and the 1960s from the broader chronology of African Americans pushing for civil rights. The Life of Ella Baker Ella Baker’s life demonstrates the difficulty of limiting the civil rights era to the 1950s and 1960s. Brown vs. Board of Education of Topeka From Chief Justice Earl Warren’s decision: “We come then to the question presented: Does segregation of children in public schools solely on the basis of race, even though the physical facilities and other ‘tangible’ factors may be equal deprive the children of the minority group of equal educational opportunities? We believe that it does.” The Actions of Civil Rights Activists also helped to build momentum for Civil Rights Montgomery Bus Boycotts, 1955 -- largely failed to get national attention. Violence in other places around the South, however, provided powerful images for the national media. Little Rock, Arkansas In 1957, President Eisenhower sent the 101 Airborne division to enforce a court order forcing integration of Central High School in Little Rock, Arkansas. Woolworth Sit Ins In 1960, four black college students from North Carolina A&T in Greensboro decided to sit at the “whites only” counter in their local F.W. Woolworth and order coffee and doughnuts. For the Michigan students who would organize the SDS in 1962, it seemed like an advance for democracy and were excited about joining the movement to topple Jim Crow in the United States. Answering a Question on the Review Sheet!!! How was the “sit-in” movement of 1960 an outgrowth of earlier protests? What major differences divided the various groups—SNCC, SCLC, NAACP, CORE, and others—that were active in protesting against white supremacy in the 1960s?

The Fourth Amendment Case Study For this week's discussion, assume that you are a member of the US Supreme Court. Consider this case: Police suspected a man was growing marijuana inside his home. Late at night, the police (without stepping on the suspect's property) used a heat-sensing device to determine that part of the defendant's home was substantially warmer than the other homes in the area. In the detective's experience, that kind of heat signature indicated the use of indoor "grow lights." Based on this information, the detective obtained a warrant to search the house and indeed did find an indoor marijuana-growing operation. The defendant was convicted but has appealed claiming the use of the heat sensor without his approval and without a warrant violated his rights. He believes any evidence related to the heat sensor should have been excluded from the case (and, really, the warrant should not have been issued based on the heat sensor information) Discuss the relevant issues of this case. Identify the Constitutional issue and describe the process of deciding a Supreme Court case. If you can, demonstrate how this case relates to the issue of crime control versus due process models of criminal justice. Conclude with an explanation of how you would rule in such a case. .

The four steps for MLA citation: ENC1102 You must follow these specific steps to incorporate accurate MLA citation into your writing: 1. First, always use an Attributive tag (signal phrase); ex: According to Hill… Friedman claims…Rubin asserts… (See the Attributive Tag handout on Canvas for additional signal phrases). 2a) *Next, either use a direct quote; ex: Blogger Libby Hill writes that loneliness “… has less to do with being alone and more to do with not having other people around” (???), or b) A paraphrase, (rewording of the author’s ideas); ex: Hill argues that children are not ignorant, and just like the cartoon character Calvin, they are attuned to the world around them (???), or c) A brief summary; ex: In her blog, based on the syndicated Calvin and Hobbes cartoon strip, Hill warns her readers against the inherent dangers of overmedicating children. She avidly preaches that as a result of the children being overmedicated, they forever lose their sense of creativity (???), or even d) A long direct block quote (4 full lines or more). *FYI! This long quote is based on another topic; ex: According to Lew Feldstein, a United Way director: …communities with high social capital tend to have better outcomes in areas like crime, health, and education than do communities with low social capital. Expanding national service will increase people-to-people contact, creating more opportunities to form the connections that build social capital. The power of volunteers, that brings people together, shines through the testimonial pages of the AmeriCorps Web site. (Qtd in AmeriCorps Impact Guide 378) *Notice the difference in punctuation between the short direct quote (2a) and the other topic’s long direct quote (2d). 3. Then use a parenthetical citation, Ex: (Everyone’s an Author 192) the first time, and if you directly cite again from the same source, just cite the page number (194). Also see the above proper citation for the Americorp “quote within a quote”). 4. Finally, on its own page, add the Works Cited page; ex: Madsen 4 Works Cited AmeriCorps Impact Guide. Corporation for National and Community Service, n.d. Web. 23 February 2013. Hill, Libby. “Calvin and Hobbes: The Voice of the Lonely Child”. (192-197). Everyone’s an Author.

The four C.O.R.E. perspectives, as well as Blended Categories, featured in the Ethics Awareness Inventory are presented below. (R) RESULTS (MOST) YOUR ETHICAL PERSPECTIVE: You tend to base your ethical perspective on the results or consequences of your actions. You believe that conduct should be directed toward promoting the greatest good for the greatest number of persons. In judging whether an individual’s actions are ethical, you look for concrete evidence. It is not enough for an individual to “talk the talk.” Results are needed to indicate that she/he is “walking the walk.” In your opinion, what really counts in reaching an ethical decision is the “bottom line.” Discussions about process and principles are not as important as what is ultimately achieved for the overall good of society. The goal of ethics is to achieve the greatest possible good for society as a whole. This category is most closely aligned in philosophy with a utilitarian theory of ethics (See Jeremy Bentham and John Stuart Mill). YOUR ETHICAL STYLE: You believe that we each have a moral right to experience the “good life.” One way to measure how good life really is would be to determine how satisfied the majority of the people in our society seem to be. If most people are unhappy, something is morally wrong and needs to be fixed. Therefore, your approach to ethics is likely to focus on what could be done to improve the well being of the greatest number of persons. One approach might be to develop rules of ethical conduct for people to follow, along with corresponding sanctions, in order to achieve what is best for society as a whole. Another quite different approach might be to improve overall satisfaction by creating a more pleasant environment in which people enjoy learning and working together for the betterment of society. With either approach, your ethical style demands that you achieve measurable results. FRUSTRATIONS YOU FACE IN ADDRESSING ETHICAL DILEMMAS: · The inability to adequately measure the far-reaching impacts of an ethical decision may compel you to focus your decision making on the immediate scope of the problem, thereby creating conflicts with those who are not results-oriented. · You are frustrated by the wide variety of competing views regarding what is good for society as a whole and by the process used to determine whose view ultimately prevails. · In attempting to maximize the general good, you will, at some point, need to decide whether your goal is to improve the total benefit to society as a whole (the aggregate) or the total benefit per person within society (the average). This definition will have a direct impact on your approach to ethical decision making. · People who cling to the idealistic notion of protecting the interests of some minority of the population may stand in the way of achieving the good life for the majority. · People you work with may no.

The following will examine the rise and fall of ancient societies within Peru specifically within the pre-Hispanic Andes between the years of 1520-1620 with mention to the Moche, Chimu, Inca, Wari, Nazca, Roman, Mayan, and Chacoan peoples, in addition to the comparison and contrast of the re-emergent states that followed. To most efficiently do so, factors including but not limited to natural crisis responses, changes in economic strategies, land-use patterns, restructuring of social organization, political solidarity, increase in conflict or warfare, urban abandonment, disease mortality, and contact with foreigners will be employed to further understand the various intricacies of cultural interplay, social identity and evolution within these communities. Moreover, through the study of bones and molecules embedded therein, in addition to cranial modification, one can explore and to a greater extent reconstruct how the reverberations of violence, changed dietary habits, and encouraged innovative technological advances transformed beliefs and practices concerning the dead. .
