Students are expected to watch at least 30 minutes of political ne.docx
Students are expected to watch at least 30 minutes of political news a week. Nearly any news program is acceptable, foreign or domestic, including public television, cable, and online sources. The key is diversity. Do not take in the same news source week after week. Be sure to take notes during the program that you watch, including the program’s name, outlet (cable, television, online, etc.), and date viewed. You will write
two
1-2 paged papers, connecting current political news to the material from the textbook and lecture outlines. Detailed instructions will be posted on Titanium within the first two weeks of the semester. These two papers, along with your notes from watching the news, are to be stapled together and turned in as one assignment.

CASE STUDY:
Mary is a 36-year-old stay-at-home mother of four children. She is starting to become a bit bored with staying home, having done that for the past 15 years. Prior to having children, Mary worked in a credit union and enjoyed her job. She especially liked the precision of number crunching. She has carried this characteristic into her housekeeping chores. She tries to keep her home spotless, even with four children. She cleans the two bathrooms every day, vacuums, dusts, picks up toys, and performs various and sundry cleaning chores. Clutter and messiness bother her, and she is almost neurotic about cleaning. She is a perfectionist and knows it. All of her friends agree, but she is able to laugh at this quirk and not take herself too seriously.
Although maintaining a house with four children might seem overwhelming to others, Mary handles these chores fine and has time (sometimes while cleaning) to keep in close touch with her friends, especially with phone calls. Mary is continuously on the phone. Her friends are a very important part of her social support network, especially since she does not have coworkers with whom to interact and because her husband travels a lot for his job. Often, her friends seem more important to her than her spouse and she seems to have a better relationship with them than her husband. They describe her as being fiercely loyal, supportive, and talkative. They also know that she has a good heart. She is always willing to help another mom whose babysitter got sick by watching their child while she goes to work. If a friend is feeling overwhelmed about preparing for an upcoming party, she is willing to cook or bake something for them. You would never know from looking at her that Mary is such a warm and caring person. She actually looks a bit intimidating and angry, but that is just because her age is starting to show with somewhat deep lines between her eyes, which is mistaken for a frown. She is aware of this contradiction and is a bit self-conscious of her frown lines.
Mary is also insecure about not having attended college. Many of her friends graduated from college. Some even have doctorate degrees, but Mary never did. She does not think of herself as unintelligent, but she sees herself as uneducated and defers to others with a better education. Her friends see her as very intelligent, and they encourage her to pursue at least an associate’s degree mainly so she will feel better about herself. Mary is considering this possibility. It is something that she has always wanted to do. In particular, she is thinking about getting an associate’s degree in legal business studies and becoming a legal assistant after all of her children are in middle school. They will be old.

Sociology in a Nutshell:
A Brief Introduction to the Discipline of Sociology
Alan Barton, Ph.D.
As an independent discipline, Sociology dates back to the end of the 19
th
century, although
Sociology has influences from various other disciplines, including Philosophy, Political Economy
and Statistics. The first practitioners of Sociology were in France and Germany, as the effects of
the industrial revolution were being felt across Europe, and early sociologists were primarily
concerned with understanding the nature of industrial society (Levine, 1995). The first theories
that emerged contrasted community structures, common in agrarian societies, with societal
structures, common in industrial settings (Tönnies, 1887/2002; Durkheim, 1893/1997; Redfield,
1953). Community systems are rooted in personal emotional attachments, a desire for
homogeneity, strict normative (informal) controls, and a rudimentary division of labor (e.g., by
gender, within the household), while societal systems are based on professional rational
attachments, valuing diversity, legal (formal) controls, and a complex division of labor (e.g., by
occupation, at workplaces). As industrialization develops, systems of social organization move
from community to society, and states and markets take central roles in the operation of society
(Polanyi, 1944).
Sociology came to America in the early twentieth century, and was first established at the
University of Chicago (Collins, 1994). American sociologists developed a new approach to the
study of modern (industrial) society, by appropriating ecological theories from Biology and
applying them to urban settings. American sociologists also highlighted interaction as the root of
social structures (Mead, 1934; Goffman, 1959; Blumer, 1969). As Sociology spread, other
perspectives grew as well, including Functionalist Sociology, which emphasizes social order and
the “social glue” that holds society together, and Conflict Sociology, which emphasizes social
hierarchies and the differing levels of status accorded to different groups (Collins, 1994).
At its core, Sociology is the study of the relationship between individuals and their social
contexts. This is sometimes known as the Sociological Perspective (or the Sociological
Imagination) , because in order to understand the social causes of human behavior, sociologists
typically must adopt a way of thinking that differs from how most people see the world (Mills,
1959). Humans are by nature social beings; we cannot survive unless we interact with other
humans. But our interactions are not random, they are shaped by our relationships with others,
by our cultural values and beliefs, by the rules of institutions we participate in, and by our
experiences in previous interactions, among other influences (Bellah, Madsen, Sullivan, Swidler
& Tipton, 1991). Through interaction, we create the terms of these social structures―the

The system test plan for the Card Czar Android Application will support the following objectives:
1. Identify responsible persons for quality assurance, test management and testing tasks
2. Define the test plan and testing methods involved
3. Identify resource information for test plan development 2.2 Background
The Card Czar Android application is a spin-off of the popular board game Apples to Apples. The purpose of the software test plan is to identify key aspects of software verification and requirements validation. Comment by Admin: Based on project plan comments maybe we should provide a short synopsis of how the game/app will work?
The Card Czar is an android application multiplayer card game that can deliver hours of fun. It allows a user to create a new game room and invite friends to play with them. For a game to begin there must be at least 3 players. Once a game is started each player is dealt at random a hand of response cards that will contain a noun (or response) on them. After all players are given the response cards a dealer will be randomly chosen to start the game. The dealer (card baron) will draw a bait card that consists of an adjective (or other text to be responded to). Each player then selects from their cards a noun that they think the dealer will choose as the best response to the question. Once all responses are received the dealer (Card Baron) then picks the answer they like the best and the player whose response it was gets a point and becomes the dealer (Card Baron) for the next round. This continues until a player has reached 5 points and becomes the winner (the Card Czar).
Maximum players: 6
Minimum players: 3
Bait cards: (Adjective/Question Options)
Response cards: (Noun/Answer Options)2.3 Scope
2.3.1 In Scope
The Card Czar Test Plan defines the unit, integration and acceptance testing. The test plan will include the following:
1. Testing of all interfaces between Android application modules
2. Testing of all quality requirements
3. Security test.
Software Training ProgramABC Company has 50,000 employees and wa.docx
Software Training Program
ABC Company has 50,000 employees and wants to increase employee productivity by setting
up an internal software applications training program. The training program will teach employees how to use Microsoft software programs such as Vista, Word 2010, Excel 2010, PowerPoint 2010, Access 2010, and Project 2010. Courses will be offered in the evenings and
on Saturdays and taught by qualified volunteer employees. Instructors will be paid $40 per
hour. In the past, employees were sent to courses offered by local vendors during company
time. In contrast, this internal training program should save the company money on training
as well as make people more productive. The Human Resources department will manage the
program, and any employee can take the courses. Employees will receive a certificate for completing
courses, and a copy will be put in their personnel files. The company is not sure which
vendor's off-the-shelf training materials to use. The company needs to set up a training classroom,
survey employees on desired courses, find qualified volunteer instructors, and start offering
courses. The company wants to offer the first courses within six months. One person
from Human Resources is assigned full time to manage this project, and top management has
pledged its support.
1. Project Scope Management
Create a WBS for this project and enter the tasks in Project 201 0. Create milestones
and summary tasks. Assume that some of the project management tasks you need
to do are similar to tasks from the Project Tracking Database example. Some of the
tasks specific to this project will be to:
a. Review off-the-shelf training materials from three major vendors and decide
which materials to use.
b. Negotiate a contract with the selected vendor for its materials.
c. Develop communications information about this new training program. Disseminate
the information via department meetings, e-mail, the company's intranet,
and flyers to all employees.
d. Create a survey to determine the number and type of courses needed and
employees' preferred times for taking courses.
e. Administer the survey.
f. Solicit qualified volunteers to teach the courses.
g.
h.
Review resumes, interview candidates for teaching the courses, and develop a
list of preferred instructors.
Coordinate with the Facilities department to build two classrooms with 20 personal
computers each, a teacher station, and an overhead projection system
(assume that Facilities will manage this part of the project).
i. Schedule courses.
j. Develop a fair system for signing up for classes.
k. Develop a course evaluation form to assess the usefulness of each course and
the instructor's teaching ability.
I. Offer classes.
2. Project Time Management
a. Enter realistic durations for each task and then link appropriate tasks. Be sure
that all tasks are linked in some fashion to the start and end of the project. Use
the Project Tracking Database as an example. Assume that you have six mont.
Soft skills are most often characterized as the personal attribu.docx
Soft skills are most often characterized as the personal attributes that make up the interpersonal and intrapersonal aspects of an individual. Soft skills can include attitude, manners, social skills, the ability to communicate, listen, delegate, resolve conflicts, work as a team player, adapt to change, and work hard.
The term “soft skills” is not an indication on their importance; in fact, it can be argued that soft skills are more important to character and success you might achieve. Soft skills are compared to, and more specifically complement, a person’s “hard skills” which are the specific skills required for a job. For example, the soft skills necessary for a leader in an organization would be vision, social skills, emotional intelligence, empathy, work ethic, communication, and flexibility while the hard skills would be execution, organization, knowledge of computer programs, a second language, planning, coordinating and a thorough understanding of the organization’s policies and procedures.
In the previous section, many soft skills have already been discussed. You practice a variety of soft skills every day as a matter of fact. They occur so naturally you may not even notice them or have never spent time to realize strengths that you regularly exhibit. Identifying your soft skills will give you talking point in interviews and in promotion discussions, as well as give you new goals and areas to improve upon.
Critical Soft Skills
The following is a list of primary soft skills that just about every employer is looking for from their staff. It is no means inclusive as soft skills refer to an often intangible set of abilities that to some degree are engrained in everyone. While the primary soft skills are generally agreed upon as important in any job capacity, there are countless others that are deemed imperative as well (See Module 3: Personal and Career Evaluation). Depending on the job or function you are performing, these may be just as imperative as the ones listed below but not as universal. Review the following and determine which areas are personal strengths and which are areas in need of improvement.
· Communication. Communication permeates just about every aspect of both personal and professional endeavors. It is associated with active listening, comprehension, and clear expression of thoughts and ideas. It includes oral, written, and non-verbal types. To improve your communication skills, focus on both what you are saying and how you are saying it, and always remember that receiving information is just as crucial as providing it so practice active listening instead of just thinking of what to say next.
· A Good Work Ethic. Your work ethic is the sum of your attitude, actions, and guiding values. It is how company leadership knows that you are trustworthy and have the best interests of the organization at heart. A good work ethic is demonstrated through your decisive behavior, motivation, and dedication. You cannot .

Phase 1 Project Outline
The project that our team is proposing is that of a mobile music application. This application will be a front end application that uses already in place internet services. The project involves. The mobile will contain free listening for radio and a paid listening subscription for user selected content. The application will be multiplatform based and be useable on iOS, Android, Windows 8.x. The application will also be integrated with social media sites such as Facebook and Google +, to name a few. There will be 6 phases for this project to include the following;
1. Pilot Application
2. Radio module
3. Subscription module
4. Social Media Module
5. Project CloseDevelopment Methodology
The development methodology will be that of Iterative/Incremental that allows for breaking up the project into small digestible chunks and is easy to understand. This method is similar to making small waterfalls out of each iteration of the software. This method allows for quick testing and customer feedback. This is best suited for small teams that support parallel coding and testing which will be used in this project. The ability to release the product in 90 to 120 days below budget is planned.Phase 2 Software Production
Requirements
The requirements gathering sessions will be completed by formal meetings, chat and email interaction. This will be done due to the various locations of the stakeholders and team members in this project. The original project inception and the requirements for the agreed upon project were gathered by email correspondence between the team members. The group leaded compiled a list of the initial requirements and this was discussed during a live chat meeting. The requirements are as follows;
· Initial pilot app (includes account creation)
· Player Module to include equalizer module ( Includes 5 bans of equalization)
· Radio module (search for music interest)
· Subscription module (create playlists, add music to library)
· Social media module
· Project close
· Application will operate across multiple platforms (Supports iOS, Android, Windows 8.x)
· Paid subscription for direct listening
· Free listening for radio playlists
· App will use backend services already exist from current website
· App will integrate into existing backend services
The first 5 requirements are functional requirements and the remaining 7 requirements are non functional requirements. The functional re.

Socometal Rewarding African WorkersBy Evalde Mutabazi and C. B.docx
Socometal: Rewarding African Workers
By: Evalde Mutabazi and C. Brooklyn Derr
It was a most unusual meeting at a local café in Dakar. Diop, a young Senegalese engineer who was educated at one of Frances’s elite engineering grandes ‘ecoles in Lyon, was meeting with N’Diaye, a model factory worker to whom other workers from his tribe often turned when there were personal or professional difficulties. N’Diaye was a chief’s son, but he didn’t belong to the union and he was not an official representative of any group within the factory.
Socometal is a metal container and can company. While multinational, this particular plant is a joint venture wherein 52 percent is owned by the French parent company and 48 percent is Senegalese. Over the last twenty years Socometal has grown in size from 150 to 800 employees and it has returns of about 400 million FCFA (African francs) or $144 million. The firm is often held up as a model in terms of its Africanization of management policies, whereby most managers are now West African with only 8-10 top managers coming from France.
During the meeting N’Diaye asked Diop if he would accept an agreement to pay each worker for two extra hours in exchange for a 30 percent increase in daily production levels. If so, N’Diaye would the guarantor for this target production level that would enable the company to meet the order in the shortest time period. “If you accept my offer,” he said with a smile, “we could even produce more. We are at 12,000 (units) a day, but we’ve never been confronted with this situation. I would never have made this proposal to Mr. Bernard but, if you agree today, I will see that the 20,000 (unit) level is reached as of tomorrow evening. I’ll ask each worker to find ways of going faster, to communicate this to the others and to help each other if they have problems…”
Mr. Olivier Bernard, a graduate of Ecole Centrale in Paris (one of Frances’s more prestigious engineering schools), was the French production manager, and Diop was the assistant production manager. Mr. Bernard was about 40 and had not succeeded at climbing the hierarchal ladder in the parent company. Some report that this was due to his tendency to be arrogant, uncommunicative and negative. His family lived in a very nice neighborhood in Marseille, and it was his practice to come to Dakar, precisely organize the work using various flowcharts, tell Diop exactly what was expected by a certain date and then return to France for periods of two to six weeks. This time he maintained that he had contracted a virus and needed to return for medical treatment.
Shortly before Mr. Bernard fell ill, Socometal agreed to a contract requiring them to reach in short time a volume of production never before achieved. Mr. Bernard, after having done a quick calculation, declared, “We’ll never get that from our workers--- c’est impossible!” After organizing as best he could, he left for Marseille.
Diop pondered what N’Diaye had propos.
Sociology and General Education [1964]By Robert Bierstedt.docx
Sociology and General Education:
[1964]
By Robert Bierstedt
Sociology has many uses that are alike unsung and unappreciated. Some of these uses pertain not to its function as an instrument in the acquisition of knowledge but to a rather different kind of function—its function in the course and process of education. I am inclined to think in fact, as I hope the following remarks will show, that sociology is one of the most valuable of all of the disciplines in the university curriculum and that one of its most distinctive virtues lies precisely and centrally in the realm of general education.
Those of us who are engaged in the sociological enterprise ourselves tend to think—perhaps inevitably—that sociology is for sociologists, or at least for those who want to become sociologists. In our colleges and universities, however, we teach sociology to many more than these. It has been estimated that only two per cent of undergraduate students major in sociology and that only three per cent of this statistically small figure go on to do graduate work in sociology. The vast majority, in short, study sociology with no vocational or professional purpose. They appear in our undergraduate classes and study our introductory texts either because sociology is required as a supplementary subject in a closely related curriculum or because it satisfies a social science requirement in a curriculum for which another science would do equally well. There are those in addition, we may suppose and hope, who study sociology without being required to do so because it satisfies some wayward or vagrant curiosity of their own, because it stimulates an intellectual interest, because it has its own intrinsic fascination. This paper examines some of the educational and cultural advantages that sociology has to offer these other groups of students, particularly the last, comprised of those who have no intention of making a career in the field and who have no professional requirement to satisfy. I propose to show, in short, that sociology has an important role to play in general education, a role that is wholly commensurate with and sometimes even superior to the roles played by such older disciplines as history, literature, and philosophy. I shall maintain that sociology has many virtues that contribute to the cultivation of the intellect and that it merits a high rank. therefore, among the liberal arts and sciences.
The Liberated Mind:
The first of the educational virtues of sociology is that, like all al the liberal arts, it liberates the student from the provincialism of time, place, and circumstance. One of the great disabilities al those who have been denied the benefits of education is their parochialism, their attachment to the narrow corner of earth wherein they dwell. These are the people—and unfortunately they are the vast majority of mankind—who retain throughout their lives a primitive loyalty to their initial culture. For the uneducated t1 initial culture .

Sociological Observation of a Sporting Event
Student Name: Connie Hutson Event: Basketball Game Date of Observation: September 09,2012 CharacteristicObservations/CommentsSetting or
EnvironmentThe setting for the basketball game is at the Oklahoma arena. This indoor setting is incredibly lively, and all the components, such as the lighting, sound systems and the seating are well organized. ParticipantsThere are two teams competing for the Western Conference title. There is a great disparity in the ages of the participants, with the youngest player being 19 years of age whereas the oldest is 31 years of age. Many of the players, approximately 75%, are black whereas the rest are either White or Hispanic. I have observed that the game plays a major role in bridging the racial gap between the players, because they work harmoniously and seem to understand each other exceptionally well, regardless of their racial differences. Attendees/
FansThere are many attendees (approximately 30,000). Most of them are energetic, and the mood is exceptionally electrifying. There are various entertainers that are dancing and amusing people, before the game starts and during the short intervals, when the teams break in- between the quarters. Most of the fans are male which are from all age brackets; there is also a substantial number of females, especially young females below the age of 30. There are also some media personalities who have come to provide coverage of the event. Dress/Attire/
StyleThe players have their matching shorts and sleeveless t-shirts. Most of the fans are dressed in casual sporting attire, most notably- tracksuits and t-shirts. Behaviors ObservedThe fans are very buoyant and intermittently resort to singing and chanting to motivate their team. There is also a high level of interaction, with fans supporting the same event. Through watching this sport, I have come to the realization that basketball is a unifying sport. The fans, although they do not know each other, interact with each other as they share the proceedings of the game. Ambiance/
AtmosphereThe atmosphere is incredibly dynamic, with the fans cheering their teams, and singing songs of praise whenever their teams make a basket. Apart from the fans, there are also a number of female entertainers dancing and performing for the crowd during the intermissions. SymbolsThere are many symbols inherent in this basketball game. The referee mainly uses hand symbols, to inform the players and the fans of decisions unfolding, as the game continues. The fans have also come with many banners showing support for their teams. Other
ObservationsThere is some distinctive knowledge and/or language that characterize this sport. Most of the fans, as well as all the players, are familiar with the language, which includes a number of rules that govern the game.

Socioautobiography Assignment GuidelinesThe purpose of this assign.docx
Socioautobiography Assignment Guidelines
The purpose of this assignment is to give you the opportunity to apply the sociological imagination to your everyday life: to make connections between your everyday life and the broad sociocultural structures within which you live. In this assignment, you will reference appropriate Terminal Course Objectives (TCOs) that relate to your socioautobiography. You can find the TCOs in this course listed in the Syllabus and in the weekly objectives. This assignment can be related to any and all of the TCOs.
The Socioautobiography is a reflective paper that allows you the opportunity to explore the interconnections between biography (a slice of your life), the social structure, and culture. In preparation for this paper, please read this document, Socioautobiography Assignment Guideline boldface and underlined. At the end of the paragraph where a concept is used, indicate which TCOs your sociological concept refers. This should be done using parenthetical citation. An example of how to do this is provided below.
The final paper will be due at the end of Week 5. It should be three- to four-pages in length and may be in any format you choose. Feel free to get creative. You may choose to do a standard APA style paper or you can do your socioautobiography as a news story, movie review of your life, letter home to family, obituary, poem, lyrics, dialogue, old time radio program, or Shakespearean play whatever format you choose. Be sure to identify your format, double-space your paper, and correctly use a minimum of six sociological concepts covered in the weekly readings or lecture. Your six concepts should be in boldface and underlined. Consider the following example:
As I think about my college experience, because of my lack of English language skills, I realized that I was at a disadvantage with other students who were from upper-middle-class suburbs. I grew up in a farming community and, while there was the expectation that farm kids were going off to college, the community’s educational policy was based on the idea that farm kids would take over the family farm. As such, learning proper academic language was not a high priority (TCO 5 and TCO 9).
Note how, in this mini-socioautobiography, there are references to social class, education, and place of residence.Below are guidelines to follow as you work on your socioautobiography assignment.
· Papers should contain 3-to 4-pages of text, double-spaced (this does not include the title page).
· Refer to and properly use at least six sociological concepts covered in the lectures or textbook reading.
· Underline andboldface these concepts.
· Connect your concepts to the TCOs. Indicate the TCOs covered in parentheses, as demonstrated in the assignment instructions.
· Cite the textbook and/or lecture for the concepts and the Syllabus or course objectives for the TCOs in addition to any outside source material used both I body and on your reference page.

Socially induced and rapid increases in aggression are inversely r.docx
Socially induced and rapid increases in aggression are inversely related to brain aromatase activity in a sex-changing fish, Lythrypnus dalli
This paper investigates a social trigger for rapid changes in sexual phenotype and its effect on AA and behavior. The paper analyses the effect of a changing social environment on aggressive behavior and brain aromatase activity (bAA) in a sex-changing fish, Lythrypnus dalli. Aromatase is responsible for the conversion of androgen or testosterone into estradiol. It can modulate behavior in adult birds and mammals.
When males were removed from the group, aggression in females was increased. These females had lower brain aromatase activity and similar gonadal aromatase activity. This aggressive behavior was inversely proportional to bAA. In this fish when males were removed, some behavioral and morphological modifications were produced which changed sexual phenotype from female to male.
The paper compared AA and behavior of females in the early stage of sex change to control females, established males, and recently sex changed fishes.
Materials
Fishes were collected from Catalina Island California and the experiment was carried out with 19 social groups. The groups were selected such that each group had one large male, one large female which was smaller than the male and two females smaller than the large female. They were kept for five days so that they adjust to new social condition. The observation on female behavior was observed on forth day for 10 minutes. This was done both in the morning as well as in the afternoon. The behavior was recorded in the form of jerks, approaches and displacements. Displacements are ritualized aggression defined as moving within 5 cm of another fish and resulting in that fish moving away and jerks are male-typical courtship swims.
The groups were divided into four types mainly dominance phase, sex changed, control females and males. In dominance phase males were removed in the morning on the fifth day and a female’s behavior was observed for 10 min, 10 min in the afternoon and 10 min in the morning the next day. They sacrificed large female groups after any of these three observation periods.
All dominance phase fishes had been sacrificed after the third observation period. The time was recorded and female tissue was frozen. The dominance phase fishes are at an early stage in the sex change process.
In sex-changed groups, the male was also removed on the fifth day and the large female was allowed to fully change sex. Once the sex changer fertilized eggs as a male, it was sacrificed.
In control female groups, the male remained in the group and the large female was sacrificed at the same time as in the sex changer groups. The sex changer and control groups were paired two by two before experiments began and the large females in these groups were sacrificed in parallel on the same days.
Six males that had remained in control groups were also sampled at the same time as con.

REGISTRATION NUMBER:
Since I am seeking after a masters in Social Work, I can let you know my purpose behind picking social work as a calling. I was brought up in a solitary guardian home and I thus brought up four youngsters as a solitary guardian. I didn't have the outside help and direction that I expected to help me in this battle. To be included in Social Work will give me the chance to (single folks be effective at child rearing) and improving life for their youngsters and for themselves. ( I dont Know what that means) My own backgrounds would be an assest and an incredible instrument for me to use in drilling and managing. I truly don't believe that anybody ought to pick Social Work as a calling on the off chance that they don't have at the top of the priority list of helping people.I would say that the vast majority who enter the social work calling are roused by the yearning to help other people and also the craving to change their reality. Social workers have a hard occupation and we all know they aren't paid exceptionally well. Positively anybody wanting this calling would be occupied with helping other people as opposed to profiting. Social workers are regularly the bleeding edge for shielding kids and families from damage. They have an extraordinary chance to produce change. Social workers can ensure those in a bad position and set them on a superior way. They can incredibly impact the new way that somebody is sent down, particularly on account of youthful youngsters.
Alongside the sympathy and longing to help other people that have been said, some social workers are miserably optimistic and place exertion into attempting to improve their fantasies of a world get to be reality. Their vitality is incompletely taking into account their trust that they can accomplish something to offer the world some assistance with becoming a superior spot - notwithstanding everybody, at any rate for the general population they serve in their specific limit inside of the social work field of endeavor.Social work, to my psyche, is about feeling a moral obligation regarding others. ( This is a personal narrative what is written here is not anything about me you used words like they and social workers This is about me this is not about an explanation ) In that sense, it is something that is, natural for a few and not to others. I have known a few individuals who perform social work, and they all have this in like manner: they are interminably persistent. To individuals who would prefer not to be aided, to give backing to individuals who are self-harming, to see for quite a while a line out the entryway of individuals who have no place else to turn, and to realize that you can't help everybody... it's a hard employment, and one that I couldn't do. I respect the individuals who settle on the cognizant decision to experience their lives in t.

SOCIAL WORK CASE STUDY. 3000WORDS HARVARD REFERENCING.
Mrs Halima Smith is 35 years old. Halima married Jonny Smith 14 years ago but the couple have been separated for three years now. Contact between them has stopped and Halima has no idea where Jonny is now.
When she married Jonny she fell out with her family who did not approve of their marriage. Halima described her childhood as generally happy and the breakdown in her relationship with her family caused her a great deal of pain. Halima has tried to rebuild relationships since separating from Jonny but her approaches have been rebuffed by her family.
Halima and Jonny have 3 young children. They are Gul (aged 11 years), Deeba (aged 6 years) and Max (aged 5 years).All are enrolled at the local school.
The past three years have been difficult for Halima and her children. Halima does not work and relies on state benefit for income. The family have moved from the rented home they shared with Jonny to a series of other rented accommodation. Halima does not feel very safe in the area they live in now, and she and her children regularly experience discriminatory attitudes based on their names and appearance. The type of accommodation available in their area is predominantly flats and the resident population is largely transitory. There are very few services available locally and the parade of shops where Halima does most of the family shopping is dominated by low cost food and clothing outlets. More recently ,Halima has perceived an increase in drug dealing and prostitution nearby.
Two months ago Halima started a new relationship with a man living nearby called Anthony (aged 54 years). She is enjoying feeling wanted and interesting again. Anthony is divorced with two adult children who he has little contact with but he says are living generally settled and contented lives .As neither Anthony nor Halima have very much disposable income, they spend time together during the day when the children are at school and increasingly in the evenings in Halima’s flat. Anthony believes Halima is too lenient with her children and has encouraged her to take a stricter approach in her parenting. He says they need to learn that life is hard and that they have to earn what they get. When visiting the flat he sometimes takes responsibility for setting and monitoring behavioural boundaries for the children. This has included shouting at them, depriving them of some access to television and grounding them to their bedroom. Halima is a little uncomfortable with this , but thinks that maybe Anthony is right , especially given his experience in parenting.
Today though Halima has a big problem. It is Gul’s birthday and she has tried very hard to prepare a celebration for Gul after school.Anthony has been very helpful and will be coming to the party.She wants to make It very special because she has been particularly concerned about a recent change in the appearance and behaviour of Gul. Gul has .

On September 12, 2001, the day after the terrorist attacks onthe Pentagon and the World Trade Center, Sher Singh, atelecommunications consultant from Virginia, managed to
catch a train home from Boston where he had been on a busi-
ness trip. “With the horrific images of the terrorist attacks still
fresh in my mind,” Sher Singh recalls, “I was particularly anx-
ious to get home to my family” (Singh, 2002, p. 1). Singh was
very much like any other shocked and sorrowful American on
that day—except for one small difference: As a member of the
Sikh religion, Singh, unlike most Americans, wore a full beard
and a turban.
The train made a scheduled stop in Providence, Rhode
Island, about an hour outside of Boston. But oddly, the stop
dragged on for a very long time. Singh began to wonder what was
wrong. A conductor walking through the coaches announced
that the train had mechanical trouble. However,
when passengers from neighboring coaches
began to disembark and line up on the platform,
Singh became suspicious that this was not the
true story. He didn’t have long to speculate
about the genuine cause of the problem,
because suddenly law-enforcement officers
burst into his coach and pulled him off the train
at gunpoint. They were searching for four Arab
men who had evaded authorities in a Boston
hotel. A Sikh, however, is not an Arab. A Sikh
belongs to a Hindu sect that comes from India,
not the Middle East.
On the station platform, Singh was
abruptly handcuffed and asked about his citi-
zenship. Assurances that he was a U.S. citizen
did not satisfy the officers. They asked him if
he had a weapon. Singh informed them that,
as a devout Sikh, he is required to carry a
miniature ceremonial sword. They promptly
455
arrested Singh and pushed him through a crowd of onlookers to
a waiting police car. According to news reports, as Singh
passed by, some teenagers shouted, “Let’s kill him!” while a
woman yelled, “Burn in Hell!”
As a terrorist suspect, Singh was photographed, finger-
printed, and strip-searched. He was held in custody at police
headquarters until 9:00 PM. While he was jailed, news media
nationwide had displayed a photo of him side by side with a
photo of Osama bin Laden. Although all charges against Sher
Singh were eventually dropped, he never received an apology
from the law-enforcement officers involved.
How could this blatant case of mistaken identi.

The term mob mentality refers to similar pattern of behavior or thought by a group of people. The biggest factor of mob mentality is the need for people in a large group to conform or to yield to the pressure of peer pressure. People have a desire to belong which leads to a similarity in behavior and thoughts. The dynamics of the mob mentality are a group of people coming together and conforming to match their behavior to the behavior of others in the group. The word mob can be misleading because the mob mentality does not always lead to an angry group of people.
According to Paul Torrens () crowds are complex, adaptive systems that may seem chaotic but have an underlying order. There will be situations where the underlying mood of the mob or group can lead to more aggressive type behavior. For example if influential members of the mob are angry or frustrated these feelings could trickle down to the rest of the group resulting in an angry and frustrated mob. The human interactions of the group are influenced by their environment as well as the behaviors of other humans in the group.
Members of the group are impacted by both verbal and nonverbal behaviors. When feelings of anger or panic spread through the group it can create one mentality leading to mob behavior. The opposite of this is the benefits of the mob mentality. When the mob is displaying positive behaviors and thoughts this mentality can be a good thing (Mask, 2013). For example if the mob is focused on education or making improvements in society then mob mentality is a good thing. It does not always have to be negative or result in negative consequences.
People succumb to the mob mentality because it easier to fit in than it is to stand out of a crowd. The mob mentality is the result of people in the group thinking or acting in a similar way which causes more people to believe this thought is correct and to embrace these thoughts or behaviors. If this many people believe the same thing it must be right. The mob mentality can consist of a small group with similar behavior and thoughts or it can encompass and entire society. If the ideas and actions of the group are positive then the mob mentality is good but if this mentality leads to negative behaviors it is not.

CMS-02142.0 Introduction2.1 Objectives
The system test plan for the Card Czar Android Application will support the following objectives:
1. Identify responsible persons for quality assurance, test management and testing tasks
2. Define the test plan and testing methods involved
3. Identify resource information for test plan development 2.2 Background
The Card Czar Android application is a spin-off of the popular board game Apples to Apples. The purpose of the software test plan is to identify key aspects of software verification and requirements validation. Comment by Admin: Based on project plan comments maybe we should provide a short synopsis of how the game/app will work?
The Card Czar is an android application multiplayer card game that can deliver hours of fun. It allows a user to create a new game room and invite friends to play with them. For a game to begin there must be at least 3 players. Once a game is started each player is dealt at random a hand of response cards that will contain a noun (or response) on them. After all players are given the response cards a dealer will be randomly chosen to start the game. The dealer (card baron) will draw a bait card that consists of an adjective (or other text to be responded to). Each player then selects from their cards a noun that they think the dealer will choose as the best response to the question. Once all responses are received the dealer (Card Baron) then picks the answer they like the best and the player whose response it was gets a point and becomes the dealer (Card Baron) for the next round. This continues until a player has reached 5 points and becomes the winner (the Card Czar).
Maximum players: 6
Minimum players: 3
Bait cards: (Adjective/Question Options)
Response cards: (Noun/Answer Options)2.3 Scope
2.3.1 In Scope
The Card Czar Test Plan defines the unit, integration and acceptance testing. The test plan will include the following:
1. Testing of all interfaces between Android application modules
2. Testing of all quality requirements
3. Security test.
Software Training ProgramABC Company has 50,000 employees and wa.docx
Software Training Program
ABC Company has 50,000 employees and wants to increase employee productivity by setting
up an internal software applications training program. The training program will teach employees how to use Microsoft software programs such as Vista, Word 2010, Excel 2010, PowerPoint 2010, Access 2010, and Project 2010. Courses will be offered in the evenings and
on Saturdays and taught by qualified volunteer employees. Instructors will be paid $40 per
hour. In the past, employees were sent to courses offered by local vendors during company
time. In contrast, this internal training program should save the company money on training
as well as make people more productive. The Human Resources department will manage the
program, and any employee can take the courses. Employees will receive a certificate for completing
courses, and a copy will be put in their personnel files. The company is not sure which
vendor's off-the-shelf training materials to use. The company needs to set up a training classroom,
survey employees on desired courses, find qualified volunteer instructors, and start offering
courses. The company wants to offer the first courses within six months. One person
from Human Resources is assigned full time to manage this project, and top management has
pledged its support.
1. Project Scope Management
Create a WBS for this project and enter the tasks in Project 201 0. Create milestones
and summary tasks. Assume that some of the project management tasks you need
to do are similar to tasks from the Project Tracking Database example. Some of the
tasks specific to this project will be to:
a. Review off-the-shelf training materials from three major vendors and decide
which materials to use.
b. Negotiate a contract with the selected vendor for its materials.
c. Develop communications information about this new training program. Disseminate
the information via department meetings, e-mail, the company's intranet,
and flyers to all employees.
d. Create a survey to determine the number and type of courses needed and
employees' preferred times for taking courses.
e. Administer the survey.
f. Solicit qualified volunteers to teach the courses.
g.
h.
Review resumes, interview candidates for teaching the courses, and develop a
list of preferred instructors.
Coordinate with the Facilities department to build two classrooms with 20 personal
computers each, a teacher station, and an overhead projection system
(assume that Facilities will manage this part of the project).
i. Schedule courses.
j. Develop a fair system for signing up for classes.
k. Develop a course evaluation form to assess the usefulness of each course and
the instructor's teaching ability.
I. Offer classes.
2. Project Time Management
a. Enter realistic durations for each task and then link appropriate tasks. Be sure
that all tasks are linked in some fashion to the start and end of the project. Use
the Project Tracking Database as an example. Assume that you have six mont.
Soft skills are most often characterized as the personal attribu.docx
Soft skills are most often characterized as the personal attributes that make up the interpersonal and intrapersonal aspects of an individual. Soft skills can include attitude, manners, social skills, the ability to communicate, listen, delegate, resolve conflicts, work as a team player, adapt to change, and work hard.
The term “soft skills” is not an indication on their importance; in fact, it can be argued that soft skills are more important to character and success you might achieve. Soft skills are compared to, and more specifically complement, a person’s “hard skills” which are the specific skills required for a job. For example, the soft skills necessary for a leader in an organization would be vision, social skills, emotional intelligence, empathy, work ethic, communication, and flexibility while the hard skills would be execution, organization, knowledge of computer programs, a second language, planning, coordinating and a thorough understanding of the organization’s policies and procedures.
In the previous section, many soft skills have already been discussed. You practice a variety of soft skills every day as a matter of fact. They occur so naturally you may not even notice them or have never spent time to realize strengths that you regularly exhibit. Identifying your soft skills will give you talking point in interviews and in promotion discussions, as well as give you new goals and areas to improve upon.
Critical Soft Skills
The following is a list of primary soft skills that just about every employer is looking for from their staff. It is no means inclusive as soft skills refer to an often intangible set of abilities that to some degree are engrained in everyone. While the primary soft skills are generally agreed upon as important in any job capacity, there are countless others that are deemed imperative as well (See Module 3: Personal and Career Evaluation). Depending on the job or function you are performing, these may be just as imperative as the ones listed below but not as universal. Review the following and determine which areas are personal strengths and which are areas in need of improvement.
· Communication. Communication permeates just about every aspect of both personal and professional endeavors. It is associated with active listening, comprehension, and clear expression of thoughts and ideas. It includes oral, written, and non-verbal types. To improve your communication skills, focus on both what you are saying and how you are saying it, and always remember that receiving information is just as crucial as providing it so practice active listening instead of just thinking of what to say next.
· A Good Work Ethic. Your work ethic is the sum of your attitude, actions, and guiding values. It is how company leadership knows that you are trustworthy and have the best interests of the organization at heart. A good work ethic is demonstrated through your decisive behavior, motivation, and dedication. You cannot .

Phase 1 Project Outline
The project that our team is proposing is that of a mobile music application. This application will be a front end application that uses already in place internet services. The project involves. The mobile will contain free listening for radio and a paid listening subscription for user selected content. The application will be multiplatform based and be useable on iOS, Android, Windows 8.x. The application will also be integrated with social media sites such as Facebook and Google +, to name a few. There will be 6 phases for this project to include the following;
1. Pilot Application
2. Radio module
3. Subscription module
4. Social Media Module
5. Project CloseDevelopment Methodology
The development methodology will be that of Iterative/Incremental that allows for breaking up the project into small digestible chunks and is easy to understand. This method is similar to making small waterfalls out of each iteration of the software. This method allows for quick testing and customer feedback. This is best suited for small teams that support parallel coding and testing which will be used in this project. The ability to release the product in 90 to 120 days below budget is planned.Phase 2 Software Production
Requirements
The requirements gathering sessions will be completed by formal meetings, chat and email interaction. This will be done due to the various locations of the stakeholders and team members in this project. The original project inception and the requirements for the agreed upon project were gathered by email correspondence between the team members. The group leaded compiled a list of the initial requirements and this was discussed during a live chat meeting. The requirements are as follows;
· Initial pilot app (includes account creation)
· Player Module to include equalizer module ( Includes 5 bans of equalization)

Socometal Rewarding African WorkersBy Evalde Mutabazi and C. B.docx
Socometal: Rewarding African Workers
By: Evalde Mutabazi and C. Brooklyn Derr
It was a most unusual meeting at a local café in Dakar. Diop, a young Senegalese engineer who was educated at one of Frances’s elite engineering grandes ‘ecoles in Lyon, was meeting with N’Diaye, a model factory worker to whom other workers from his tribe often turned when there were personal or professional difficulties. N’Diaye was a chief’s son, but he didn’t belong to the union and he was not an official representative of any group within the factory.
Socometal is a metal container and can company. While multinational, this particular plant is a joint venture wherein 52 percent is owned by the French parent company and 48 percent is Senegalese. Over the last twenty years Socometal has grown in size from 150 to 800 employees and it has returns of about 400 million FCFA (African francs) or $144 million. The firm is often held up as a model in terms of its Africanization of management policies, whereby most managers are now West African with only 8-10 top managers coming from France.
During the meeting N’Diaye asked Diop if he would accept an agreement to pay each worker for two extra hours in exchange for a 30 percent increase in daily production levels. If so, N’Diaye would the guarantor for this target production level that would enable the company to meet the order in the shortest time period. “If you accept my offer,” he said with a smile, “we could even produce more. We are at 12,000 (units) a day, but we’ve never been confronted with this situation. I would never have made this proposal to Mr. Bernard but, if you agree today, I will see that the 20,000 (unit) level is reached as of tomorrow evening. I’ll ask each worker to find ways of going faster, to communicate this to the others and to help each other if they have problems…”
Mr. Olivier Bernard, a graduate of Ecole Centrale in Paris (one of Frances’s more prestigious engineering schools), was the French production manager, and Diop was the assistant production manager. Mr. Bernard was about 40 and had not succeeded at climbing the hierarchal ladder in the parent company. Some report that this was due to his tendency to be arrogant, uncommunicative and negative. His family lived in a very nice neighborhood in Marseille, and it was his practice to come to Dakar, precisely organize the work using various flowcharts, tell Diop exactly what was expected by a certain date and then return to France for periods of two to six weeks. This time he maintained that he had contracted a virus and needed to return for medical treatment.
Shortly before Mr. Bernard fell ill, Socometal agreed to a contract requiring them to reach in short time a volume of production never before achieved. Mr. Bernard, after having done a quick calculation, declared, “We’ll never get that from our workers--- c’est impossible!” After organizing as best he could, he left for Marseille.
Diop pondered what N’Diaye had propos.
Sociology and General Education [1964]By Robert Bierstedt.docx
Sociology and General Education:
[1964]
By Robert Bierstedt
Sociology has many uses that are alike unsung and unappreciated. Some of these uses pertain not to its function as an instrument in the acquisition of knowledge but to a rather different kind of function—its function in the course and process of education. I am inclined to think in fact, as I hope the following remarks will show, that sociology is one of the most valuable of all of the disciplines in the university curriculum and that one of its most distinctive virtues lies precisely and centrally in the realm of general education.
Those of us who are engaged in the sociological enterprise ourselves tend to think—perhaps inevitably—that sociology is for sociologists, or at least for those who want to become sociologists. In our colleges and universities, however, we teach sociology to many more than these. It has been estimated that only two per cent of undergraduate students major in sociology and that only three per cent of this statistically small figure go on to do graduate work in sociology. The vast majority, in short, study sociology with no vocational or professional purpose. They appear in our undergraduate classes and study our introductory texts either because sociology is required as a supplementary subject in a closely related curriculum or because it satisfies a social science requirement in a curriculum for which another science would do equally well. There are those in addition, we may suppose and hope, who study sociology without being required to do so because it satisfies some wayward or vagrant curiosity of their own, because it stimulates an intellectual interest, because it has its own intrinsic fascination. This paper examines some of the educational and cultural advantages that sociology has to offer these other groups of students, particularly the last, comprised of those who have no intention of making a career in the field and who have no professional requirement to satisfy. I propose to show, in short, that sociology has an important role to play in general education, a role that is wholly commensurate with and sometimes even superior to the roles played by such older disciplines as history, literature, and philosophy. I shall maintain that sociology has many virtues that contribute to the cultivation of the intellect and that it merits a high rank. therefore, among the liberal arts and sciences.
The Liberated Mind:
The first of the educational virtues of sociology is that, like all al the liberal arts, it liberates the student from the provincialism of time, place, and circumstance. One of the great disabilities al those who have been denied the benefits of education is their parochialism, their attachment to the narrow corner of earth wherein they dwell. These are the people—and unfortunately they are the vast majority of mankind—who retain throughout their lives a primitive loyalty to their initial culture. For the uneducated t1 initial culture .
Sociological Observation of a Sporting Event Student Name .docx
Sociological Observation of a Sporting Event
Student Name: Connie Hutson Event: Basketball Game Date of Observation: September 09,2012 CharacteristicObservations/CommentsSetting or
EnvironmentThe setting for the basketball game is at the Oklahoma arena. This indoor setting is incredibly lively, and all the components, such as the lighting, sound systems and the seating are well organized. ParticipantsThere are two teams competing for the Western Conference title. There is a great disparity in the ages of the participants, with the youngest player being 19 years of age whereas the oldest is 31 years of age. Many of the players, approximately 75%, are black whereas the rest are either White or Hispanic. I have observed that the game plays a major role in bridging the racial gap between the players, because they work harmoniously and seem to understand each other exceptionally well, regardless of their racial differences. Attendees/
FansThere are many attendees (approximately 30,000). Most of them are energetic, and the mood is exceptionally electrifying. There are various entertainers that are dancing and amusing people, before the game starts and during the short intervals, when the teams break in- between the quarters. Most of the fans are male which are from all age brackets; there is also a substantial number of females, especially young females below the age of 30. There are also some media personalities who have come to provide coverage of the event. Dress/Attire/
StyleThe players have their matching shorts and sleeveless t-shirts. Most of the fans are dressed in casual sporting attire, most notably- tracksuits and t-shirts. Behaviors ObservedThe fans are very buoyant and intermittently resort to singing and chanting to motivate their team. There is also a high level of interaction, with fans supporting the same event. Through watching this sport, I have come to the realization that basketball is a unifying sport. The fans, although they do not know each other, interact with each other as they share the proceedings of the game. Ambiance/
AtmosphereThe atmosphere is incredibly dynamic, with the fans cheering their teams, and singing songs of praise whenever their teams make a basket. Apart from the fans, there are also a number of female entertainers dancing and performing for the crowd during the intermissions. SymbolsThere are many symbols inherent in this basketball game. The referee mainly uses hand symbols, to inform the players and the fans of decisions unfolding, as the game continues. The fans have also come with many banners showing support for their teams. Other
ObservationsThere is some distinctive knowledge and/or language that characterize this sport. Most of the fans, as well as all the players, are familiar with the language, which includes a number of rules that govern the game.

Socioautobiography Assignment GuidelinesThe purpose of this assign.docx
Socioautobiography Assignment Guidelines
The purpose of this assignment is to give you the opportunity to apply the sociological imagination to your everyday life: to make connections between your everyday life and the broad sociocultural structures within which you live. In this assignment, you will reference appropriate Terminal Course Objectives (TCOs) that relate to your socioautobiography. You can find the TCOs in this course listed in the Syllabus and in the weekly objectives. This assignment can be related to any and all of the TCOs.
The Socioautobiography is a reflective paper that allows you the opportunity to explore the interconnections between biography (a slice of your life), the social structure, and culture. In preparation for this paper, please read this document, Socioautobiography Assignment Guideline boldface and underlined. At the end of the paragraph where a concept is used, indicate which TCOs your sociological concept refers. This should be done using parenthetical citation. An example of how to do this is provided below.
The final paper will be due at the end of Week 5. It should be three- to four-pages in length and may be in any format you choose. Feel free to get creative. You may choose to do a standard APA style paper or you can do your socioautobiography as a news story, movie review of your life, letter home to family, obituary, poem, lyrics, dialogue, old time radio program, or Shakespearean play whatever format you choose. Be sure to identify your format, double-space your paper, and correctly use a minimum of six sociological concepts covered in the weekly readings or lecture. Your six concepts should be in boldface and underlined. Consider the following example:
As I think about my college experience, because of my lack of English language skills, I realized that I was at a disadvantage with other students who were from upper-middle-class suburbs. I grew up in a farming community and, while there was the expectation that farm kids were going off to college, the community’s educational policy was based on the idea that farm kids would take over the family farm. As such, learning proper academic language was not a high priority (TCO 5 and TCO 9).
Note how, in this mini-socioautobiography, there are references to social class, education, and place of residence.Below are guidelines to follow as you work on your socioautobiography assignment.
· Papers should contain 3-to 4-pages of text, double-spaced (this does not include the title page).
· Refer to and properly use at least six sociological concepts covered in the lectures or textbook reading.
· Underline andboldface these concepts.
· Connect your concepts to the TCOs. Indicate the TCOs covered in parentheses, as demonstrated in the assignment instructions.
· Cite the textbook and/or lecture for the concepts and the Syllabus or course objectives for the TCOs in addition to any outside source material used both I body and on your reference page.

Socially induced and rapid increases in aggression are inversely r.docx
Socially induced and rapid increases in aggression are inversely related to brain aromatase activity in a sex-changing fish, Lythrypnus dalli
This paper investigates a social trigger for rapid changes in sexual phenotype and its effect on AA and behavior. The paper analyses the effect of a changing social environment on aggressive behavior and brain aromatase activity (bAA) in a sex-changing fish, Lythrypnus dalli. Aromatase is responsible for the conversion of androgen or testosterone into estradiol. It can modulate behavior in adult birds and mammals.
When males were removed from the group, aggression in females was increased. These females had lower brain aromatase activity and similar gonadal aromatase activity. This aggressive behavior was inversely proportional to bAA. In this fish when males were removed, some behavioral and morphological modifications were produced which changed sexual phenotype from female to male.
The paper compared AA and behavior of females in the early stage of sex change to control females, established males, and recently sex changed fishes.
Materials
Fishes were collected from Catalina Island California and the experiment was carried out with 19 social groups. The groups were selected such that each group had one large male, one large female which was smaller than the male and two females smaller than the large female. They were kept for five days so that they adjust to new social condition. The observation on female behavior was observed on forth day for 10 minutes. This was done both in the morning as well as in the afternoon. The behavior was recorded in the form of jerks, approaches and displacements. Displacements are ritualized aggression defined as moving within 5 cm of another fish and resulting in that fish moving away and jerks are male-typical courtship swims.
The groups were divided into four types mainly dominance phase, sex changed, control females and males. In dominance phase males were removed in the morning on the fifth day and a female’s behavior was observed for 10 min, 10 min in the afternoon and 10 min in the morning the next day. They sacrificed large female groups after any of these three observation periods.
All dominance phase fishes had been sacrificed after the third observation period. The time was recorded and female tissue was frozen. The dominance phase fishes are at an early stage in the sex change process.
In sex-changed groups, the male was also removed on the fifth day and the large female was allowed to fully change sex. Once the sex changer fertilized eggs as a male, it was sacrificed.
In control female groups, the male remained in the group and the large female was sacrificed at the same time as in the sex changer groups. The sex changer and control groups were paired two by two before experiments began and the large females in these groups were sacrificed in parallel on the same days.
Six males that had remained in control groups were also sampled at the same time as con.

Since I am seeking after a masters in Social Work, I can let you know my purpose behind picking social work as a calling. I was brought up in a solitary guardian home and I thus brought up four youngsters as a solitary guardian. I didn't have the outside help and direction that I expected to help me in this battle. To be included in Social Work will give me the chance to (single folks be effective at child rearing) and improving life for their youngsters and for themselves. ( I dont Know what that means) My own backgrounds would be an assest and an incredible instrument for me to use in drilling and managing. I truly don't believe that anybody ought to pick Social Work as a calling on the off chance that they don't have at the top of the priority list of helping people.I would say that the vast majority who enter the social work calling are roused by the yearning to help other people and also the craving to change their reality. Social workers have a hard occupation and we all know they aren't paid exceptionally well. Positively anybody wanting this calling would be occupied with helping other people as opposed to profiting. Social workers are regularly the bleeding edge for shielding kids and families from damage. They have an extraordinary chance to produce change. Social workers can ensure those in a bad position and set them on a superior way. They can incredibly impact the new way that somebody is sent down, particularly on account of youthful youngsters.
Alongside the sympathy and longing to help other people that have been said, some social workers are miserably optimistic and place exertion into attempting to improve their fantasies of a world get to be reality. Their vitality is incompletely taking into account their trust that they can accomplish something to offer the world some assistance with becoming a superior spot - notwithstanding everybody, at any rate for the general population they serve in their specific limit inside of the social work field of endeavor.Social work, to my psyche, is about feeling a moral obligation regarding others. ( This is a personal narrative what is written here is not anything about me you used words like they and social workers This is about me this is not about an explanation ) In that sense, it is something that is, natural for a few and not to others. I have known a few individuals who perform social work, and they all have this in like manner: they are interminably persistent. To individuals who would prefer not to be aided, to give backing to individuals who are self-harming, to see for quite a while a line out the entryway of individuals who have no place else to turn, and to realize that you can't help everybody... it's a hard employment, and one that I couldn't do. I respect the individuals who settle on the cognizant decision to experience their lives in t.

SOCIAL WORK CASE STUDY. 3000WORDS HARVARD REFERENCING.
Mrs Halima Smith is 35 years old. Halima married Jonny Smith 14 years ago but the couple have been separated for three years now. Contact between them has stopped and Halima has no idea where Jonny is now.
When she married Jonny she fell out with her family who did not approve of their marriage. Halima described her childhood as generally happy and the breakdown in her relationship with her family caused her a great deal of pain. Halima has tried to rebuild relationships since separating from Jonny but her approaches have been rebuffed by her family.
Halima and Jonny have 3 young children. They are Gul (aged 11 years), Deeba (aged 6 years) and Max (aged 5 years).All are enrolled at the local school.
The past three years have been difficult for Halima and her children. Halima does not work and relies on state benefit for income. The family have moved from the rented home they shared with Jonny to a series of other rented accommodation. Halima does not feel very safe in the area they live in now, and she and her children regularly experience discriminatory attitudes based on their names and appearance. The type of accommodation available in their area is predominantly flats and the resident population is largely transitory. There are very few services available locally and the parade of shops where Halima does most of the family shopping is dominated by low cost food and clothing outlets. More recently ,Halima has perceived an increase in drug dealing and prostitution nearby.
Two months ago Halima started a new relationship with a man living nearby called Anthony (aged 54 years). She is enjoying feeling wanted and interesting again. Anthony is divorced with two adult children who he has little contact with but he says are living generally settled and contented lives .As neither Anthony nor Halima have very much disposable income, they spend time together during the day when the children are at school and increasingly in the evenings in Halima’s flat. Anthony believes Halima is too lenient with her children and has encouraged her to take a stricter approach in her parenting. He says they need to learn that life is hard and that they have to earn what they get. When visiting the flat he sometimes takes responsibility for setting and monitoring behavioural boundaries for the children. This has included shouting at them, depriving them of some access to television and grounding them to their bedroom. Halima is a little uncomfortable with this , but thinks that maybe Anthony is right , especially given his experience in parenting.
Today though Halima has a big problem. It is Gul’s birthday and she has tried very hard to prepare a celebration for Gul after school.Anthony has been very helpful and will be coming to the party.She wants to make It very special because she has been particularly concerned about a recent change in the appearance and behaviour of Gul. Gul has .

On September 12, 2001, the day after the terrorist attacks onthe Pentagon and the World Trade Center, Sher Singh, atelecommunications consultant from Virginia, managed to
catch a train home from Boston where he had been on a busi-
ness trip. “With the horrific images of the terrorist attacks still
fresh in my mind,” Sher Singh recalls, “I was particularly anx-
ious to get home to my family” (Singh, 2002, p. 1). Singh was
very much like any other shocked and sorrowful American on
that day—except for one small difference: As a member of the
Sikh religion, Singh, unlike most Americans, wore a full beard
and a turban.
The train made a scheduled stop in Providence, Rhode
Island, about an hour outside of Boston. But oddly, the stop
dragged on for a very long time. Singh began to wonder what was
wrong. A conductor walking through the coaches announced
that the train had mechanical trouble. However,
when passengers from neighboring coaches
began to disembark and line up on the platform,
Singh became suspicious that this was not the
true story. He didn’t have long to speculate
about the genuine cause of the problem,
because suddenly law-enforcement officers
burst into his coach and pulled him off the train
at gunpoint. They were searching for four Arab
men who had evaded authorities in a Boston
hotel. A Sikh, however, is not an Arab. A Sikh
belongs to a Hindu sect that comes from India,
not the Middle East.
On the station platform, Singh was
abruptly handcuffed and asked about his citi-
zenship. Assurances that he was a U.S. citizen
did not satisfy the officers. They asked him if
he had a weapon. Singh informed them that,
as a devout Sikh, he is required to carry a
miniature ceremonial sword. They promptly
455
arrested Singh and pushed him through a crowd of onlookers to
a waiting police car. According to news reports, as Singh
passed by, some teenagers shouted, “Let’s kill him!” while a
woman yelled, “Burn in Hell!”
As a terrorist suspect, Singh was photographed, finger-
printed, and strip-searched. He was held in custody at police
headquarters until 9:00 PM. While he was jailed, news media
nationwide had displayed a photo of him side by side with a
photo of Osama bin Laden. Although all charges against Sher
Singh were eventually dropped, he never received an apology
from the law-enforcement officers involved.
How could this blatant case of mistaken identi.

The term mob mentality refers to similar pattern of behavior or thought by a group of people. The biggest factor of mob mentality is the need for people in a large group to conform or to yield to the pressure of peer pressure. People have a desire to belong which leads to a similarity in behavior and thoughts. The dynamics of the mob mentality are a group of people coming together and conforming to match their behavior to the behavior of others in the group. The word mob can be misleading because the mob mentality does not always lead to an angry group of people.
According to Paul Torrens () crowds are complex, adaptive systems that may seem chaotic but have an underlying order. There will be situations where the underlying mood of the mob or group can lead to more aggressive type behavior. For example if influential members of the mob are angry or frustrated these feelings could trickle down to the rest of the group resulting in an angry and frustrated mob. The human interactions of the group are influenced by their environment as well as the behaviors of other humans in the group.
Members of the group are impacted by both verbal and nonverbal behaviors. When feelings of anger or panic spread through the group it can create one mentality leading to mob behavior. The opposite of this is the benefits of the mob mentality. When the mob is displaying positive behaviors and thoughts this mentality can be a good thing (Mask, 2013). For example if the mob is focused on education or making improvements in society then mob mentality is a good thing. It does not always have to be negative or result in negative consequences.
People succumb to the mob mentality because it easier to fit in than it is to stand out of a crowd. The mob mentality is the result of people in the group thinking or acting in a similar way which causes more people to believe this thought is correct and to embrace these thoughts or behaviors. If this many people believe the same thing it must be right. The mob mentality can consist of a small group with similar behavior and thoughts or it can encompass and entire society. If the ideas and actions of the group are positive then the mob mentality is good but if this mentality leads to negative behaviors it is not.
