Develop a 3-5 page outline of concepts you would like to apply to .docx
Develop a 3-5 page outline of concepts you would like to apply to your own life and identify relevant scholarly sources that will help you with your application of concepts.
As you may have noticed as you have worked through earlier assessments, Sociology is applicable to our everyday lives. We can oftentimes take a sociological concept and use it to explain something that occurs in our own lives. For example, you have learned about norms and how we tend to follow the norms of a society. You can use that to explain how people behave when they are in an elevator. Most people face forward, look up at the numbers, and don't talk.
Many of your experiences can be analyzed using sociological concepts. For your final assessment, Assessment 6, you will complete a Sociology of Me and apply many of the concepts you have learned about in this course to your own life. For Assessment 5, begin to think about which concepts you would like to apply to your own experience, develop an outline, and identify appropriate resources. In order to complete this assessment, you will need to show your understanding of some additional concepts related to social structure, education, and technology/media.
We have learned how a society's culture can influence people. There are other elements in society, however, that also affect our decisions and behavior. Sociological research has found that in addition to culture, social structure and groups also significantly impact many of our individual choices. Our position in the social structure affects our behaviors, attitudes, and ideas. For example, an important element of social structure are groups. We belong to a variety of different groups. Decades of research have documented the impact of group conformity on the individual. Although people tend to often believe that they act as individuals and aren't impacted by others, research has found this is usually not the case. The Milgram experiment in your Resources is a great example. Milgram (1963) examined conformity and obedience and found that people are highly influenced by authority and the demands of conformity, even to the point that we will inflict pain on another person to obey authority.
Sociologists also study education and how it is impacted by a society's culture and structure. The purpose of education is to provide knowledge (facts, skills, cultural norms) to members of a society. In the United States, education teaches us not just skills, but also how to be effective citizens. Education transmits the dominant culture, ensuring that children understand cultural norms and values. Educational attainment impacts life outcomes—it affects our occupation, earnings, work conditions, and health. Thus, education is related to social inequality. We have a tendency to assume that education is an equalizer in the United States, but this is something that is debated by sociologists. Is education equally available to everyone? Studies suggest it is not. Social class can impa.

The study of social movement reflects the social issues in differe.docx
The study of social movement reflects the social issues in different periods have faced. This work will focus on the Abolition Movement and the Lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) social movements. Social movement are a result of general public consensus towards dealing with major social issues in the community. This work will study the historical background and ideals that supported the development of these two social movement. This is intended to show the correlation between their emergence and the key social issues that the community faced.The Abolition Movement emerged in an effort to end slavery in the country. It held that all people are created equal, and hence the practice of slavery was unacceptable. This movement existed in the 19th century when many people started publicly displaying dissatisfaction for the slavery practices in the country. It placed more pressure on the authorities to outlaw slavery (Martos, Wilson & Meyer, 2017). It would allow for increased debate about segregation and discrimination. The LGBT movement is much more recent. It was started with the goal of affording members of the LGBT community with the same rights and recognition of heterosexual members of the community. For many generations, people categorized as LGBT were shunned and discriminated against. This movement intended to overcome these limitations set on the community members. It was motivated by the need to end widespread homophobic, transphobic and biphobic attitudes in the American community (Lysack, 2012).It is interesting to observe these roles that these social movements played in American history. It is especially interesting to know how each relates to the social issues that affected the American public at different times in the country’s history.

Develop a 4-5 page analysis of your experience with gender sociali.docx
Develop a 4-5 page analysis of your experience with gender socialization. In doing so, analyze how gender is created by society, specifically looking at children's toys and/or clothing.
Culture is the glue that holds a society together—it is what encourages the members of that society to cooperate with each other as much as possible. We learn culture through socialization, the lifelong social experience. From birth we are taught how to be members of our society.
The most common agents of socialization are our family, peers, school, and media. The family, for example, influences a child's development by such things as the way the parents hold the baby, look at it, talk to it, and respond to its needs. We take on typical gender roles from the beginning as girls are given pink clothes while boys are given blue. Family socialization is reinforced or modified by experiences at school and with peers, by the mass media, and by interaction with others. Socialization, the lifelong social experience through which we learn culture, is vital to becoming members of a society.
In this assessment, we look at the sociological concepts of culture and socialization and how they impact our behavior and attitudes.
Demonstration of Proficiency
By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and assessment criteria:
Competency 1: Examine how theory and sociological concepts apply to everyday life.
Identify gender-specific childhood clothing and/or toys.

Summarize gender socialization sources.
Explain the validity and helpfulness of gender socialization sources.
Competency 4: Analyze the influence of culture on both the individual and society.

Analyze how gender-specific messages of childhood clothing and/or toys reflect larger societal expectations.
Competency 6: Compose text that articulates meaning relevant to its purpose and audience.
Develop text using organization, structure, and transitions that demonstrate understanding of cohesion between main and subtopics.
For this assessment, you analyze how gender is created by society, specifically looking at children's toys and/or clothing. The purpose of this assessment is twofold:
It helps you to start thinking about the impact of socialization on your life as a starting point.
This first analysis will be used again for Assessment 6.

Develop a 3-5 page outline of concepts you would like to apply t.docx
Develop a 3-5 page outline of concepts you would like to apply to your own life and identify relevant scholarly sources that will help you with your application of concepts.
As you may have noticed as you have worked through earlier assessments, Sociology is applicable to our everyday lives. We can oftentimes take a sociological concept and use it to explain something that occurs in our own lives. For example, you have learned about norms and how we tend to follow the norms of a society. You can use that to explain how people behave when they are in an elevator. Most people face forward, look up at the numbers, and don't talk.
Many of your experiences can be analyzed using sociological concepts. For your final assessment, Assessment 6, you will complete a Sociology of Me and apply many of the concepts you have learned about in this course to your own life. For Assessment 5, begin to think about which concepts you would like to apply to your own experience, develop an outline, and identify appropriate resources. In order to complete this assessment, you will need to show your understanding of some additional concepts related to social structure, education, and technology/media.
We have learned how a society's culture can influence people. There are other elements in society, however, that also affect our decisions and behavior. Sociological research has found that in addition to culture, social structure and groups also significantly impact many of our individual choices. Our position in the social structure affects our behaviors, attitudes, and ideas. For example, an important element of social structure are groups. We belong to a variety of different groups. Decades of research have documented the impact of group conformity on the individual. Although people tend to often believe that they act as individuals and aren't impacted by others, research has found this is usually not the case. The Milgram experiment in your Resources is a great example. Milgram (1963) examined conformity and obedience and found that people are highly influenced by authority and the demands of conformity, even to the point that we will inflict pain on another person to obey authority.
Sociologists also study education and how it is impacted by a society's culture and structure. The purpose of education is to provide knowledge (facts, skills, cultural norms) to members of a society. In the United States, education teaches us not just skills, but also how to be effective citizens. Education transmits the dominant culture, ensuring that children understand cultural norms and values. Educational attainment impacts life outcomes—it affects our occupation, earnings, work conditions, and health. Thus, education is related to social inequality. We have a tendency to assume that education is an equalizer in the United States, but this is something that is debated by sociologists. Is education equally available to everyone? Studies suggest it is not. Social class can impa.
The concept of gender identity is still one area that is still l.docx
The concept of gender identity is still one area that is still largely being explored mainly due to its vastness. Being an important element in society, it has been discussed and many have tried to explain it the best they can. The publications by Holly Devor offer beneficial insights into this subject. As a professor in sociology, she stands qualified to point some of the issues or items required to understanding the concept of gender in society. She proposes that despite anatomical features being largely responsible for defining sex or gender of individual’s society seems to play a more important role in this subject. To back up her suggestions she gives information demonstrating the role of society in shaping gender roles as well how these roles are perceived and taken up by individuals.
In her publication, she begins by giving the pillars of gender in society and one information that controls the subject of gender as she points is that of being binary. Under this principle, she introduces two major concepts in the discussions of sex and gender, which are masculinity and femininity (Dover, 2001). Under these two classification individuals in society are highly expected to identify themselves with either one or the other category. This process begins at an early age and though biological and more specifically anatomical features should control it there is an overwhelming societal influence that dictates how an individual perceives masculinity or femininity. She goes on to back up these suggestions by analyzing how children develop and settle in to their specific gender categories.
According to Devor, “children start identifying their identities between the ages of eighteen months and two years” (Dover, 2001). Such a step is facilitated by several factors and most revolve around the concept of acquired behavior, which is socially driven. Here boys start to identify themselves as boys according to external expectations and orientations as well as internal perception, the very same applies for girls (Dover, 2001). When both the external forces, which are based on society and culture norms and expectations match with the internal forces of self-perception then individuals eventually identify themselves as either female or male. The study she pointed proves this as children who were asked to identify the gender identities of dolls focused more on the features, which are the social standards for gender such as long hair, dresses among others. However, there is a considerable change in this fact in today’s society mainly because such features have largely diminished in terms of their ability to be used as standards for identifying gender identities. For example, it is common to find men with long hair or wearing attire, which is mostly associated with women due to changes in fashion, preference among other factors. Therefore, this one area of her study that needs to evolve as currently there seems to be a shift in how individuals identify with th ...

Unit 1: Module 1 - M1 Assignment 3
Assignment 3: Views on Diversity
Pablo believes that diversity is the most important issue in our culture, and that it is greatly underemphasized. On the other hand, Ralph rarely thinks of diversity, except when it is mentioned in the workplace. Monica is sensitized to multicultural issues because her parents are immigrants who still struggle with discrimination after being here for 20 years.
To obtain a cross-section of what people think about diversity, conduct five-minute interviews with three individuals you don't know well, and assess their views on diversity. You have been provided an
Informed Consent
document for the respondents to sign along with verbally consenting to participate in this assignment. This is to enable that the respondents demonstrate a clear understanding of the meaning and purpose of this assignment. While you are expected to use the informed consent form in keeping with ethical practices for data collection, you do not need to submit it to the instructor as part of the assignment.
Ask the respondents the following questions and record their answers:
When you hear the word diversity mentioned in the workplace, in the media, or in casual conversation, what meaning do you assign this term?
Does a particular race, ethnic group, or other minority group come to mind when you think of diversity? Does one of these groups pertain to you?
Do you think the majority of people in our culture:
Respect cultural differences among groups of people.
Show indifference to cultural differences.
Lack respect for cultural differences. Explain each choice.
If you were to make a suggestion about how our culture should handle diversity over the next decade, what would it be?
Compile your responses and write a brief reflection paper (two pages) on your findings. Specifically address the following issues:
What did you discover was the general attitude toward diversity in our culture?
Is diversity more associated with one race, ethnic, or other minority group than with others? If so, explain why this might be the case.
Compare and contrast the respondent's views with your own. How would you answer the same questions?

Essay 02 Instructions
Your second essay is due by noon on Thursday, April 5th – by email only!
This essay must be an expository or informative essay. You have to explain something, give the pertinent information about it,
maybe describe the situation, maybe describe some process involved – the specifics depend on your topic. It might help to
know what an expository essay is not: it is not opinion nor argument. It might include any of the strategies, such as
description, comparison, contrast, and even narration, but the main purpose is to expound upon your topic. The possibilities are
endless.
Consider some possibilities if you were writing about guitars: You could explain what to look for in a guitar, how to record
guitar, part of the history of guitars (you couldn't do the whole history), categorize the types of guitars, explain the different
types of pick-ups available, and on and on. As another example, you could write something about current issues – explaining
the issue, the sides, the actions taken, the proposed solutions . . . whatever you decide to focus on. Those are just two
examples. The main criteria is that your essay is expository or informative, not an opinion or an argument.
You still have to write an introduction and a conclusion, of course. You do not have a required number of points or paragraphs.
Instead, you have a word limit: 750 word minimum, 1000 word maximum.
Rules for formatting your assignments
1) No cover page.
2) No headers. No footers.
3) At the top of the first page only, put your name and identify the assignment.
4) Set your page format to “letter” (8.5 x 11 in.). Beware: you may have A4 as your default page format.
5) Set the document language to “English” and use the spell checker.
6) Single spaced text, with a blank line between paragraphs.
7) Font: Times New Roman, 11 point.
Name your file properly <NAME – essay 2 – TITLE.doc>, put your name in your document also, and send it to

The study of social movement reflects the social issues in differe.docx
The study of social movement reflects the social issues in different periods have faced. This work will focus on the Abolition Movement and the Lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) social movements. Social movement are a result of general public consensus towards dealing with major social issues in the community. This work will study the historical background and ideals that supported the development of these two social movement. This is intended to show the correlation between their emergence and the key social issues that the community faced.The Abolition Movement emerged in an effort to end slavery in the country. It held that all people are created equal, and hence the practice of slavery was unacceptable. This movement existed in the 19th century when many people started publicly displaying dissatisfaction for the slavery practices in the country. It placed more pressure on the authorities to outlaw slavery (Martos, Wilson & Meyer, 2017). It would allow for increased debate about segregation and discrimination. The LGBT movement is much more recent. It was started with the goal of affording members of the LGBT community with the same rights and recognition of heterosexual members of the community. For many generations, people categorized as LGBT were shunned and discriminated against. This movement intended to overcome these limitations set on the community members. It was motivated by the need to end widespread homophobic, transphobic and biphobic attitudes in the American community (Lysack, 2012).It is interesting to observe these roles that these social movements played in American history. It is especially interesting to know how each relates to the social issues that affected the American public at different times in the country’s history.

Develop a 4-5 page analysis of your experience with gender sociali.docx
Develop a 4-5 page analysis of your experience with gender socialization. In doing so, analyze how gender is created by society, specifically looking at children's toys and/or clothing.
Culture is the glue that holds a society together—it is what encourages the members of that society to cooperate with each other as much as possible. We learn culture through socialization, the lifelong social experience. From birth we are taught how to be members of our society.
The most common agents of socialization are our family, peers, school, and media. The family, for example, influences a child's development by such things as the way the parents hold the baby, look at it, talk to it, and respond to its needs. We take on typical gender roles from the beginning as girls are given pink clothes while boys are given blue. Family socialization is reinforced or modified by experiences at school and with peers, by the mass media, and by interaction with others. Socialization, the lifelong social experience through which we learn culture, is vital to becoming members of a society.
In this assessment, we look at the sociological concepts of culture and socialization and how they impact our behavior and attitudes.

Develop a 3-5 page outline of concepts you would like to apply to your own life and identify relevant scholarly sources that will help you with your application of concepts.
As you may have noticed as you have worked through earlier assessments, Sociology is applicable to our everyday lives. We can oftentimes take a sociological concept and use it to explain something that occurs in our own lives. For example, you have learned about norms and how we tend to follow the norms of a society. You can use that to explain how people behave when they are in an elevator. Most people face forward, look up at the numbers, and don't talk.
Many of your experiences can be analyzed using sociological concepts. For your final assessment, Assessment 6, you will complete a Sociology of Me and apply many of the concepts you have learned about in this course to your own life. For Assessment 5, begin to think about which concepts you would like to apply to your own experience, develop an outline, and identify appropriate resources. In order to complete this assessment, you will need to show your understanding of some additional concepts related to social structure, education, and technology/media.
We have learned how a society's culture can influence people. There are other elements in society, however, that also affect our decisions and behavior. Sociological research has found that in addition to culture, social structure and groups also significantly impact many of our individual choices. Our position in the social structure affects our behaviors, attitudes, and ideas. For example, an important element of social structure are groups. We belong to a variety of different groups. Decades of research have documented the impact of group conformity on the individual. Although people tend to often believe that they act as individuals and aren't impacted by others, research has found this is usually not the case. The Milgram experiment in your Resources is a great example. Milgram (1963) examined conformity and obedience and found that people are highly influenced by authority and the demands of conformity, even to the point that we will inflict pain on another person to obey authority.
Sociologists also study education and how it is impacted by a society's culture and structure. The purpose of education is to provide knowledge (facts, skills, cultural norms) to members of a society. In the United States, education teaches us not just skills, but also how to be effective citizens. Education transmits the dominant culture, ensuring that children understand cultural norms and values. Educational attainment impacts life outcomes—it affects our occupation, earnings, work conditions, and health. Thus, education is related to social inequality. We have a tendency to assume that education is an equalizer in the United States, but this is something that is debated by sociologists. Is education equally available to everyone? Studies suggest it is not. Social class can impa.
The concept of gender identity is still one area that is still l.docx
The concept of gender identity is still one area that is still largely being explored mainly due to its vastness. Being an important element in society, it has been discussed and many have tried to explain it the best they can. The publications by Holly Devor offer beneficial insights into this subject. As a professor in sociology, she stands qualified to point some of the issues or items required to understanding the concept of gender in society. She proposes that despite anatomical features being largely responsible for defining sex or gender of individual’s society seems to play a more important role in this subject. To back up her suggestions she gives information demonstrating the role of society in shaping gender roles as well how these roles are perceived and taken up by individuals.
In her publication, she begins by giving the pillars of gender in society and one information that controls the subject of gender as she points is that of being binary. Under this principle, she introduces two major concepts in the discussions of sex and gender, which are masculinity and femininity (Dover, 2001). Under these two classification individuals in society are highly expected to identify themselves with either one or the other category. This process begins at an early age and though biological and more specifically anatomical features should control it there is an overwhelming societal influence that dictates how an individual perceives masculinity or femininity. She goes on to back up these suggestions by analyzing how children develop and settle in to their specific gender categories.
According to Devor, “children start identifying their identities between the ages of eighteen months and two years” (Dover, 2001). Such a step is facilitated by several factors and most revolve around the concept of acquired behavior, which is socially driven. Here boys start to identify themselves as boys according to external expectations and orientations as well as internal perception, the very same applies for girls (Dover, 2001). When both the external forces, which are based on society and culture norms and expectations match with the internal forces of self-perception then individuals eventually identify themselves as either female or male. The study she pointed proves this as children who were asked to identify the gender identities of dolls focused more on the features, which are the social standards for gender such as long hair, dresses among others. However, there is a considerable change in this fact in today’s society mainly because such features have largely diminished in terms of their ability to be used as standards for identifying gender identities. For example, it is common to find men with long hair or wearing attire, which is mostly associated with women due to changes in fashion, preference among other factors. Therefore, this one area of her study that needs to evolve as currently there seems to be a shift in how individuals identify with th ...

Unit 1: Module 1 - M1 Assignment 3
Assignment 3: Views on Diversity
Pablo believes that diversity is the most important issue in our culture, and that it is greatly underemphasized. On the other hand, Ralph rarely thinks of diversity, except when it is mentioned in the workplace. Monica is sensitized to multicultural issues because her parents are immigrants who still struggle with discrimination after being here for 20 years.
To obtain a cross-section of what people think about diversity, conduct five-minute interviews with three individuals you don't know well, and assess their views on diversity. You have been provided an
Informed Consent
document for the respondents to sign along with verbally consenting to participate in this assignment. This is to enable that the respondents demonstrate a clear understanding of the meaning and purpose of this assignment. While you are expected to use the informed consent form in keeping with ethical practices for data collection, you do not need to submit it to the instructor as part of the assignment.
Ask the respondents the following questions and record their answers:
When you hear the word diversity mentioned in the workplace, in the media, or in casual conversation, what meaning do you assign this term?
Does a particular race, ethnic group, or other minority group come to mind when you think of diversity? Does one of these groups pertain to you?
Do you think the majority of people in our culture:
Respect cultural differences among groups of people.
Show indifference to cultural differences.
Lack respect for cultural differences. Explain each choice.
If you were to make a suggestion about how our culture should handle diversity over the next decade, what would it be?
Compile your responses and write a brief reflection paper (two pages) on your findings. Specifically address the following issues:
What did you discover was the general attitude toward diversity in our culture?
Is diversity more associated with one race, ethnic, or other minority group than with others? If so, explain why this might be the case.
Compare and contrast the respondent's views with your own. How would you answer the same questions?

ANG1922, Winter 2016
Essay 02 Instructions
Your second essay is due by noon on Thursday, April 5th – by email only!
This essay must be an expository or informative essay. You have to explain something, give the pertinent information about it,
maybe describe the situation, maybe describe some process involved – the specifics depend on your topic. It might help to
know what an expository essay is not: it is not opinion nor argument. It might include any of the strategies, such as
description, comparison, contrast, and even narration, but the main purpose is to expound upon your topic. The possibilities are
endless.
Consider some possibilities if you were writing about guitars: You could explain what to look for in a guitar, how to record
guitar, part of the history of guitars (you couldn't do the whole history), categorize the types of guitars, explain the different
types of pick-ups available, and on and on. As another example, you could write something about current issues – explaining
the issue, the sides, the actions taken, the proposed solutions . . . whatever you decide to focus on. Those are just two
examples. The main criteria is that your essay is expository or informative, not an opinion or an argument.
You still have to write an introduction and a conclusion, of course. You do not have a required number of points or paragraphs.
Instead, you have a word limit: 750 word minimum, 1000 word maximum.
Rules for formatting your assignments
1) No cover page.
2) No headers. No footers.
3) At the top of the first page only, put your name and identify the assignment.
4) Set your page format to “letter” (8.5 x 11 in.). Beware: you may have A4 as your default page format.
5) Set the document language to “English” and use the spell checker.

Anecdotal Records
Anecdotal Records are detailed, narrative descriptions of an incident involving
one or several children. They are focused narrative accounts of a specific event.
They are used to document unique behaviors and skills of a child or a small
group of children. Anecdotal Records may be written as behavior occurs or at a
later time.

Andy and Beth are neighbors in a small duplex. In the evenings after.docx
Andy and Beth are neighbors in a small duplex. In the evenings after work, Andy enjoys practicing the
tuba, while Beth likes to relax and read novels. Unfortunately, Andy is not very good at his instrument,
and noise from his playing penetrates the walls and annoys Beth.
The daily utility Andy derives from playing the tuba for m minutes and spending xA dollars on other
consumption is given by
UA = xA + 32 log(m):
Andy would be happy to play his horn all day, except that he gets tired from blowing and he needs
to drink Red Bull (which is costly) to keep up his energy. (For simplicity, assume Andy gets no direct
utility benet from drinking Red Bull.) In fact, because there are diminishing returns to the eectiveness
of energy drinks, Andy has to increase his rate of Red Bull consumption the longer he plays the tuba.
Thus, Andy incurs c(m) dollars of Red Bull expense from playing the tuba m minutes in a day, where
c(m) =m2/36
Beth's happiness in a day is simply a function of how many dollars xB she spends on consumption
and how many minutes m of Andy's tuba playing she must endure. She becomes increasingly irritated
by the tuba the longer the playing goes on. Her utility is given by
UB = xB -m2/12
:
Assume that Beth and Andy have $150 of income to spend each day, and that they cannot save or
borrow any extra (they either use it or lose it).
1. From the perspective of a social planner with a utilitarian social welfare function, what is the
socially optimal amount of tuba playing each day?
2. Suppose there is no law stipulating whether Andy has a right to play his horn, or whether Beth
has a right to peace and quiet (it is hard to measure noise levels and sources, and to give rights
to this).
(a) Describe intuitively whether a market failure exists in this context.
(b) Calculate how many minutes m Andy chooses to play each day, and the resulting utilities of
Andy and Beth.
(c) Is there any deadweight loss from Andy's choice (if so, calculate it)?
3. Beth complains to her Landlord about the tuba noise, and in response the Landlord installs
noise meters that precisely record the level and source of noise in the apartments. The Landlord is
considering a policy where residents would be charged a fee of per minute of noise above a certain
threshold (the tuba would exceed this threshold). The Landlord wants to set to maximize total
welfare, as in part 1.
(a) In one concise sentence, describe intuitively how the optimal should be set.
(b) Calculate the optimal .
2
(c) What is the most Beth would be willing to pay the Landlord to induce him to implement the
policy in (b) (vs. the status quo described in part 2)?
(d) The Landlord does not want to make Andy upset. How much must the Landlord pay Andy
before he would agree to the policy in (b)?
4. Suppose the Landlord considers two alternative policies of \noise rights:"
(a) The Landlord gives Beth the rights to peace and quiet.
(b) The Landlord gives Andy the right to make noise.
These rights would be wri.

Dr. Nanthi Bolan previously worked for the Centre for Environmental Risk Assessment and the Cooperative Research Centre for Contaminants Assessment and Remediation of the Environment at the University of South Australia, and now at the University of Newcastle, and he has published many highly-cited studies on biochar, according to Google Scholar. Current intensive farming techniques removes carbon from the soil, so it's necessary to enhance its capacity to act as a carbon sink and thereby help to mitigate climate change. In Dr. Bolan’s paper, she looked at how to enhance carbon sequestration in soil using compost and biochar from organic materials to mitigate GHG emissions. The methodology used was to run different decomposition experiments on various organic amendments to measure the release of CO2. Results showed that compost combined with clay materials increased the stabilization of carbon the most. However, when organic material undergoes pyrolysis (heated at high temperatures with little oxygen) and becomes biochar, it further enhances its ability to stabilize and sequester carbon. Additionally, it was found that both compost and biochar enhance soil quality. Therefore, composting food waste or turning it into biochar can improve soil quality and reduce carbon emissions.

ABSTRACT
Android provides third-party applications with an extensive
API that includes access to phone hardware, settings, and
user data. Access to privacy- and security-relevant parts of
the API is controlled with an install-time application permis-
sion system. We study Android applications to determine
whether Android developers follow least privilege with their
permission requests. We built Stowaway, a tool that detects
overprivilege in compiled Android applications. Stowaway
determines the set of API calls that an application uses and
then maps those API calls to permissions. We used auto-
mated testing tools on the Android API in order to build
the permission map that is necessary for detecting overpriv-
ilege. We apply Stowaway to a set of 940 applications and
find that about one-third are overprivileged. We investigate
the causes of overprivilege and find evidence that developers
are trying to follow least privilege but sometimes fail due to
insufficient API documentation.

1. INTRODUCTION
Android’s unrestricted application market and open source
have made it a popular platform for third-party applications.
As of 2011, the Android Market includes more applications
than the Apple App Store [10]. Android supports third-
party development with an extensive API that provides ap-
plications with access to phone hardware (e.g., the camera),
WiFi and cellular networks, user data, and phone settings.

Access to privacy- and security-relevant parts of Android’s
rich API is controlled by an install-time application permis-
sion system. Each application must declare upfront what
permissions it requires, and the user is notified during in-
stallation about what permissions it will receive. If a user
does not want to grant a permission to an application, he or
she can cancel the installation process.
Install-time permissions can provide users with control
over their privacy and reduce the impact of bugs and vul-
nerabilities in applications. However, an install-time per-
mission system is ineffective if developers routinely request

ANDREW CARNEGIE PRINCE OF STEELNARRATOR On November 25th, 1835 i.docx
ANDREW CARNEGIE PRINCE OF STEEL
NARRATOR On November 25th, 1835 in Dunfermline, Scotland , William Carnegie plied his trade on the handloom which filled the first floor of his humble stone bungalow. But his mind that day was not on making fine linen cloth. His wife, Margaret , was in labor in the other room of their home, a small attic. That night, she gave birth to their first child, a son they named Andrew . The child's father, William , was a fine craftsman who provided a comfortable home for his wife and son, but his business was devastated by the textilefactories. William Carnegie refused to seek work in the factories and the family suffered through the poverty caused by his pride. It was Andrew's mother, Margaret , who supplied the strength to keep the family together. From her example, Andrew learned the value of hard work at an early age. Even then while doing his chores, he showed contempt for things that stood in his way. One of his jobs was to fetch water from the town well. By custom, the townspeople put out their buckets to form a line the night before. But Andrewgot tired of watching late risers take their place in front of him. One morning, he simply kicked their buckets out of theway and took his place at the head of the line. No one stopped him. Going to school wasn't mandatory and Andrewdidn't start until he was eight. Most of his early education was learned at the feet of his father and uncles, George Lauder , who ran a grocery market, and Tom Morrison , a fiery public speaker whose working-class opinions about the wealthy antagonized powerful people. Young Andrew would learn there was a price to pay for his Uncle Tom Morrison'sconfrontations with political foes. From his bedroom window,Andrew could see the tree line of the beautiful PittencrieffEstate, which contained ruins from the historical legacy ofMary , Queen of Scots. Just once a year, the owner of the estate allowed the public to come in and stroll the grounds, with one exception. He barred anyone related to a Morrison . So Andrew was forced to stay outside while all of his playmates were allowed to go into the park. The pain of this annual event in his young life would forever color Carnegie'sattitudes about his personal right to freedom of expression and his belief in the equality of all men. By the winter of 1847, another kind of pain would threaten the Carnegie family, which now included his brother, Tom , born in 1843 . DespiteMargaret's valiant efforts, they faced a prospect of soup lines to survive. Against everyone's advice, she decided to uproot the family and immigrate to America , where she had relatives living in Pittsburgh . Twelve-year-old Andrew was afraid of leaving the only home he'd ever known. He would later write of his departure from Scotland , " I remember I stood with tearful eyes as my beloved Dunfermline vanished from view." Andrew had never seen the sea when they booked passage on the converted whaling ship, the Wiscasset, bound forAmerica.

Abstract
Leaders fail to act accordingly based off theories that are examined in detail explaining the fall of a organization.
Background
Leadership failures can be attributed to theories based off emergence or nature of the particular type or style of leadership. Some theories that are examined are the traditional leadership theory, behavior and leadership styles theory, contingency and situational theory, transactional and transformational theory, comparison of charismatic and transformational leadership and finally the new leadership which represents the servant, spiritual, authentic and ethical style of leadership (
Swanson, C. R., Territo, L., and Taylor, R. W., 2012)
. Many reasons are listed why leaders fail but an effective leader should be developing and effective organization.
Reasons Why Leaders Fail
A leader fails to act because of five different reasons (Haller, C.L., 2010). The first is the interpersonal skills of a leader. If the leader has a poor skill in interpersonal then the leader has lost the ability to inspire their people. Poor communication fails underneath poor interpersonal skills. A well-rounded leader gives feedback to their employees, which correlates a element that produces a high functioning organization. Sometimes leaders fear the confrontation. A good example of side stepping this would be learning the art of verbal judo. The technique allows a employer to hear and understand the feelings but also takes into consideration the feelings of this a particular individual. Part of being a leader is making risk decisions on short notice that may be difficult but may involve address issues with others that closely work around you.
The second reason leaders fail is the inability to adapt and change. Part of the society we now live in requires us to adapt and overcome changes in the world. A good leader must be able to see the good in anything and promote change from within. New situations arise on daily basis and strategies must be formed accordingly in order to embrace the change. The one thing a good leader can count on is constant change in the workplace. I believe this to be especially true in law enforcement. The third reason leaders fail to act is because leaders focus more on self -promotion focusing on being important or powerful. The perception in the workplace is that this type of action is a betrayal of trust and a failure of integrity. The objective focus in this particular leader makes the performance not good enough to succeed but wants a celebrity status in return. Some leaders want what is not theirs and pride themselves as being top dog in a organization. The fourth reason why leaders fail is because of their indecisiveness. A direct result of this is because the leader has alack of confi.

W. W. Norton & Company has been independent since its founding in 1923, when William Warder Norton and
Mary D. Herter Norton first published lectures delivered at the People’s Institute, the adult education division of
New York City’s Cooper Union. The firm soon expanded its program beyond the Institute, publishing books by
celebrated academics from America and abroad. By midcentury, the two major pillars of Norton’s publishing
program—trade books and college texts—were firmly established. In the 1950s, the Norton family transferred
control of the company to its employees, and today—with a staff of four hundred and a comparable number of
trade, college, and professional titles published each year—W. W. Norton & Company stands as the largest and
oldest publishing house owned wholly by its employees.

Andrea Azpiazo – Review One. Little Havana: Multifamily Development Project
This report states that Little Havana is considered a low to moderate income market. However, the report also informs that demand for the proposed apartments will come from the mid to upper-income population of the Little Havana area, but it does not provide demographic data to support that demand. Who are they? What age groups? Is it primarily family households, retirees, millennials, or a mix? These are essential questions that need to be answered for an investor to have some indication of where the potential growth in rental rates will come.
No Operating Expenses are listed other than Management Fee, which is on the low end of the industry scale and likely since this is a new building. What are the projections for electricity, building and grounds maintenance, water? Although this is new construction, there will be operating expenses required throughout the holding period. Will there be a washer and dryer in the units? What about laundry or vending machines as a source of Other Income.
Based on data provided in the report, the CAP Rate for this proposed Multifamily development is significantly higher than the averages for the area, at 5.3-5.7%. Considering this is new Class A development which is not expected to carry high CAPEX reserves for a typical investment holding period of 5-7 years, the Going-In and Going-Out CAP Rates should be lower. Additionally, 70% LTV at 9% is indicative of higher risk. Is there an issue with the developer which has not been disclosed and precludes them from obtaining better terms?
The asking rent for this proposed multifamily development is 21.42% over the average rents for comparable apartments in the area. An additional bathroom in the units and one parking space per unit does not support the $1,400 asking rent, particularly when considering that there are no amenities in this building to attract a demographic that is willing to pay $300, or 21.42%, more in rent for the subject area.
Being new construction, why weren’t hurricane impact windows or shutters included, which are more in line with current building codes and municipal planning, such as Miami21? This reduces property insurance costs. The new owner may have to invest in these as part of capital expenditures.
The proposed development does not appear to fit the current target market and relies on expectations for future growth and demand in the area. Further examination, with more due diligence from sites such as STDB, US Census data, NREI, CBRE is warranted to determine the viability of this project for the proposed holding period.

Ancient Egypt1The Civilization of the Nile River V.docx
Ancient Egypt
1
The Civilization of the Nile River Valley: Egypt
Geography – Isolated by deserts on both sides.
The Nile’s periodic flooding made civilized life possible in Egypt. During drought or famine, Egypt was the place to go because Egypt always has water (cf. the story of Joseph and his brothers in Genesis).
The kingdom was divided into two parts: Lower Egypt and Upper Egypt (Upper Egypt is in the south), with Lower Egypt being a bit more cosmopolitan than Upper Egypt.
Unlike Mesopotamia, stone was plentiful.
2
Pre-Dynastic Egypt: There is some evidence that very early on (3400-3200 BC), Egypt was influenced by Mesopotamia (corresponds to Jemnet Nasr period at Uruk). The evidence includes:
the use of rectangular sun-dried mud-brick in building,
the use of cylinder seals only during this time (Egypt usually used stamp-seals before and after this period),
pictographic writing (the “idea” comes from Mesopotamia),
the idea of kingship, social stratification and specialization,
certain kinds of painted pottery,
and pictures of twisted animals and battling with animals.
This contact may explain Egypt’s sudden explosion into a complex, advanced civilization with writing. The use of mud-brick is peculiar, noting the abundance of stone. There is evidence, however, that the development begins in Upper Egypt (i.e., the south). Two distinct cultures, the Upper, with social stratification and royal artistic expression, etc., and the Lower, with contacts in Palestine, etc.
Egypt seems to go from the Neolithic to a complex civilization overnight. Linear development is not apparent. Agriculture appears to be introduced from outside.
The Pharaoh (the king) is somehow responsible for the yearly success of the Nile. His throne was Isis, the wife of Osiris and the mother of Horus. The king is identified with Horus.
Egypt seeks to portray changeless continuity over thousands of years. This is somewhat true, but not entirely accurate. Ancient Egypt went through a few periods of relative chaos or lack of centralized power. Egypt, however, as is well known, chose not to usually record such periods for posterity.

Egyptian history begins with King Narmer
Narmer united Upper and Lower Egypt
He is likely the same person as Menes
Mizraim is often the Hebrew name for Egypt
The combination of the two crowns appears.
This is the beginning of the First Dynasty, and of Egyptian history
He established his capital at the new city of Memphis (= neutral ground)
It was a new city, said to have arisen out of the ground when Narmer diverted the Nile.
The royal burial grounds of Saqqara and Giza are located nearby.
The uniting of Egypt is commemorated on the Palette of King Narmer (fig. 2.3)
Egyptian artistic canon for relief figures is manifested:
head and feet in profile, with one foot forward, but eye and shoulders shown frontally (cf. fig. 2.2)
This is the beginning of Egypt’s Bronze Age
It is also the beginning of Egy.

Creating a Language Rich Environment
Introduction
Children learn best in environments that support optimum creativity as well as development opportunities. As such, teachers must strive to foster a learning environment that enhances language acquisition among students. Learners can grasp different languages with the right practice, instructions as well as encouragement. Every teacher has a responsibility to have a classroom set up with specific learning areas as well as plan for their use (Celic, 2009). The ways in which he or she creates the opportunities for productive language acquisition can enable learners to lower their mistakes, allow learners at different educational levels interact with one another, as well as create a natural learning environment that teaches and provides various opportunities for language learning (Piper, 2012). Therefore, I have designed a classroom floor plan with three centers- the computer corner, the collaborative work table and reading corner- that do not only promote literacy, but also language acquisition.
The Classroom Floor plan
This floor plan is specifically designed to provide children with the opportunities on how learn and use language in natural ways. The three primary areas designed for promoting language learning and use include the computer corner, the reading center as well as the collaborative worktable.
The Computer Corner
The computer corner has 2 computer desks than can be used by between 2 and 3 learners at a time. The computer area supports language development among learners by providing them with the opportunities on how to use a computer, play interactive reading game, print words for learning as well as use other educational programs that promote reading as well as language acq.

FOR DISCUSSION - Analyze this article as a myth regarding TOPIC“The Enslave South”!
Stephanie McCurry's superb study of antebellum South Carolina deserves a place on the shelves and reading lists of all historians of the South and the Civil War. In lucid prose, backed up by careful and sophisticated research, she provides an answer to one of the most basic questions about the war and the region, a question best posed in the terms many professors have heard from freshmen students: "If most Southerners didn't own slaves, then why did they fight for the Confederacy?" For her answer, McCurry looks at the South Carolina Low Country.
The Low Country represents the Slave South carried to extremes, characterized as it was by huge plantations, a majority slave population, and a political system unique in the South for its elitism. South Carolina was not "the South" any more than Massachusetts was "the North," but its very nature as the extreme example of "Southern-ness" makes it an excellent place to ask some basic questions about the nature of antebellum society and its relationship to the political system. McCurry's answers demolish some deeply cherished myths about the Low Country and cast new light on some very old questions in the historiography of the South.
McCurry's book is about yeoman farmers, their families, their religion, and their relationships (political and otherwise) with the planters. McCurry notes that the very presence of yeoman farmers in the Low Country has been written out of history: they exist only as "the people" in the discourse of planter politicians. Ironically, two opposing groups are responsible for this -- the descendants of planters, who have found their self-created myth of the aristocratic Low Country both soothing and a lucrative tourist attraction, and antebellum travelers like Frederick Law Olmsted, who assumed the degredation of the non-planter white population and who usually saw in the South what he wished to see.
Through the use of quantified data, McCurry establishes the existence of yeoman farmers in the Low Country and demonstrates that they were the majority of the white male population in the region. According to McCurry, these farmers owned small amounts of land and possibly a few slaves. Their strategy for survival, as described by McCurry, will be familiar to any student of the new rural social history. They produced food first for family sustenance and then grew cotton for the market. Farmers were masters of small households and controlled the labor of their wives, their children and (if they .

Introducing Visual Encoding
Data representation is the act of giving visual form to your data.
Viewers: When perceiving a visual display of data, it is decoded using the shapes, sizes, positions and colors to form an understanding
Visualizers: Doing the reverse through visual encoding, assigning visual properties to data values
Comprised of a combination of two properties
Marks: Visible features like dots, lines and areas
Attributes: Variations applied to the appearance of marks, such as size, position, or color.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdf
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Instructions Part One of Applied Final Project, Playing with Gender: Understanding Our Gendered Selves: "My Gendered Story" (20% of course grade; due end of Week Three) 3 pages (750-1000 words) All parts of this project should be formatted in APA style (follow for both essay and citation styles): https://libguides.umgc.edu/c.php?g=1003870 Purpose: Understanding the Basic Terms and Theories of Gender In this part of the project, you will demonstrate that you understand the basic concepts of the sociological study of gender and the social construction of gender. You will turn in a three-page (750-1000 words) paper discussing your gendered story; in other words, describe how you currently "do gender" every day, and explain how this came to be. Part One, "My Gendered Story," should have two main sections of about equal length: Section 1 (about 1.5 pages (400-500 words)): · · Begin with who you are now, how you "do gender" from morning until bedtime (and maybe even throughout the night if you have small children), and how you exist as a gendered being in society. · Provide detailed examples of your gendered routine. Consider what you wear, the products you use, how you interact with friends, family members, and coworkers, and so forth. Describe
- 18. how you interact with different people and institutions in society as a gendered being and how the institutions themselves are gendered. · Use what you have learned in the course materials about different institutions in society, such as the media, the workplace, the family, medicine, religion, the criminal justice system, the educational system, the government, laws, and politics. Explain how gender informs the largest and the smallest decisions in your everyday life (your lifestyle, relationships, career, etc.). You do not need to cover all of these categories; they are listed here as an aid to thinking about how you perform gender throughout your daily life. · For full credit, include at least three (3) examples as described above. · Define gender, gender role, gendered institution, doing gender, and the social construction ofgender as part of your paper. These definitions can appear in a separate paragraph, or each term can be defined when you first use it in the paper. Section 2 (about 1.5 pages (400-500 words)): · · Once you have discussed who you are now, explain how you got here. · How were you socialized into the particular gendered being that you are now? Where did you learn your gender? What institutions and social groups shaped who you are today? · Be very specific and provide examples for each institution and social group (e.g., My mother always dressed me in pink and taught me to cook and clean; At religious school I was told/expected to ...; My role in the family was. . ., My teachers
- 19. told me. . ., I was encouraged to participate in. . ., My father taught me to shave, etc.). · For full credit, include at least three (3) examples from three different institutions as described above. · The discussion in Section 2 should clearly relate to the examples of how you "do gender" presented in Section 1. For example, if you talk about wearing makeup or a tie in Section 1, you could discuss how you learned to do so and to feel comfortable with it in Section 2. · Refer to the learning resources directly as needed in this section (at least twice) to support your claims about gender and/or to connect your personal experience to the larger context of sociological scholarship.
