After viewing the TED talk about Jessica Jackley (Links to an external site.) , share your impressions about her values and story. What does she say about storytelling? What is Kiva and what does it do? Who influenced her? How did she go about helping the poor to help themselves? What were some of the barriers and/or emotions she had to overcome? Please do some research and see if there are any Kiva programs or affiliations in your area or city. Then discuss the social enterprise you selected from the website listed under Recommended Readings for the week. Why did you select that social enterprise? How is this company or its services/ products adding value to society? What intrigues you about it? Do you see any common themes, patterns, or attributes of the individuals involved in these social enterprises? Do you think the values of this company’s leader(s) and employees are reflected in their mission and workplace dynamics? How can value shape the leadership of a social enterprise or the company itself? .

Assignment #5
Community Based Organization Profile
Due April 16
You will identify a community based organization within your chosen community and produce a
well written (about 1000 words) profile of the organization. During your investigation, you
should reach out to the group to possibly speak to a representative who could augment the
information that is likely freely available on the organization’s website and print literature. Your
goal is to find answers to the “who, what, when, where, and whys” of the group regarding their
impact on the community
What does the CBO do? What are their goals? From what you can tell (your observations and
research), what has been the impact of the organization?
When was the organization created? Under what circumstances did this occur? What is the
organization’s history?
Who comprises the CBO’s membership/workforce? What population does the organization
serve? (This is a time to think about issues of class, race/ethnicity, age, ability, and gender. To
what degree is the organization representative of the population it serves?). Is the organization
large or small?
Where is the organization located? How “grassroots” (comprised of local members and focused
on the local community) does the organization appear to be?
Why was the organization established? As far as you can tell, have the goals/strategies shifted
considerably over time?
How does the organization go about its work? (Does it provide specific services to the
community? Does it organize community members to fight for their own interests?) How is the
group organized? How is the organization funded? How does the group present itself to the
larger community?
Considering findings from your larger community research project, what conclusions can you
draw about the organization? Consider some methodological issues as well: Was the group
difficult to locate or contact? Were they open to you inquiries? If you encountered any special
difficulties, why do you think that occurred? Does the group seem sustainable? (Is it firmly
established or on its last leg?) Does the organization appear to be impactful? How can you tell?

Vision and Mission Statements Analysis 4-6
In a servant leadership organization, the leader focuses on serving the needs of the people they lead. This includes providing support, guidance, and resources to help them achieve goals. The leader takes on tasks usually delegated to others to free up their time to focus on more important matters.
The organization focuses on serving others and makes a positive difference in their lives. This is evident in the vision statement, which defines the organization as a force for good in the world. The mission statement also emphasizes the organization's dedication to helping others and mentions the specific ways the organization does this (Zhou et al., 2022). The organization puts the needs of others first and sacrifices its interests for the sake of those it serves. The organization commits to creating a positive and supportive environment for all. The organization takes risks and innovates to better serve those it exists to help.
For instance, Starbucks is a company known for its servant leadership. Starbucks has a long history of giving back to the community. Its employees are known for their dedication to customer service and a solid commitment to social responsibility. Starbucks is also known for its commitment to developing its employees and providing them opportunities to grow and advance in their careers (City, 2021).
The Microsoft organization's vision and mission statements reflect the values that make up the company's culture. Microsoft's vision statement seeks to "take a leading role in redefining how people work and live through breakthroughs in technology." (Warner, 2019). This mission statement expresses the desire for employees to work in a way that is unique to them (Nachan & Nachan, 2022). They want to pursue their own goals without being held back by others' expectations of how they should behave or what they should be doing. The values expressed in this vision and mission statement can be seen in many areas of Microsoft's business practices. For example, Microsoft's marketing tactics are designed to appeal to people with specific needs or desires; this allows them to make money off those needs or desires while maintaining an ethical relationship with their customers. In addition, Microsoft's treatment of its employees reflects its commitment to working collaboratively toward common goals rather than focusing purely on personal gain.
The Starbucks organization's vision and mission statements express the company's values. The first value, "Starbucks is a company that cares deeply about our community and the people who live in it." (City, 2021). This means that Starbucks cares about its customers, employees, and community. The organization's vision is, "we strive to inspire and nurture the human spirit through coffee together." (City, 2021). This means that Starbucks strives to make a positive impact on the community. Starbucks has been known for its charitable.
CoPs: 00-Teachers, Non-Secret Agents of Change
“That’s just the way it is”, “It’s not my job”, “Nothing’s gonna change [sic]”… expressions stemming from me-or-them dilemmas. How to address – and not jeopardize – personal priorities while improving what really matters around us? Whether we perceive our activity as a mere role in a social structure, or our job tasks as functions, or ourselves as movers, shakers, and game changers, there exist many communities of practice (or CoPs, by Wenger-Trayner, 1998), such as VenTESOL, operating in and out of our national borders. Let’s look into them, their supporting concepts, options and opportunities as a time and space where doing an apparently small part, originating in our educational framework of reference and daily endeavors, can mean a world of difference to many colleagues, students, and fellow citizens. Yes, our approaches, standards, practices, and even schedule priorities of choice can conveniently and successfully step into CoPs’ common ground for action. Skeptical about this? Disappointed or burned out? Unheard or neglected? Clueless and though curious? Enthusiastic yet none the wiser? All are invited. Come, gain fresh perspectives on realistic ways to become a 00-Teacher, non-secret agent of change!

Annual Report to the Nation on the Status of Cancer,Part I .docx
Annual Report to the Nation on the Status of Cancer,
Part I: National Cancer Statistics
Kathleen A. Cronin, PhD, MPH1; Andrew J. Lake, BS2; Susan Scott, MPH 1; Recinda L. Sherman, MPH, PhD, CTR3;
Anne-Michelle Noone, MS1; Nadia Howlader, MS, PhD1; S. Jane Henley, MSPH4; Robert N. Anderson, PhD5;
Albert U. Firth, BS2; Jiemin Ma, PhD, MHS6; Betsy A. Kohler, MPH, CTR3; and Ahmedin Jemal, DVM, PhD 6
BACKGROUND: The American Cancer Society (ACS), the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the National Cancer
Institute (NCI), and the North American Association of Central Cancer Registries (NAACCR) collaborate to provide annual updates
on cancer occurrence and trends in the United States. METHODS: Incidence data were obtained from the CDC-funded and NCI-
funded population-based cancer registry programs and compiled by NAACCR. Data on cancer deaths were obtained from the
National Center for Health Statistics National Vital Statistics System. Trends in age-standardized incidence and death rates for all can-
cers combined and for the leading cancer types by sex, race, and ethnicity were estimated by joinpoint analysis and expressed as the
annual percent change. Stage distribution and 5-year survival by stage at diagnosis were calculated for breast cancer, colon and rec-
tum (colorectal) cancer, lung and bronchus cancer, and melanoma of the skin. RESULTS: Overall cancer incidence rates from 2008 to
2014 decreased by 2.2% per year among men but were stable among women. Overall cancer death rates from 1999 to 2015
decreased by 1.8% per year among men and by 1.4% per year among women. Among men, incidence rates during the most recent 5-
year period (2010-2014) decreased for 7 of the 17 most common cancer types, and death rates (2011-2015) decreased for 11 of the 18
most common types. Among women, incidence rates declined for 7 of the 18 most common cancers, and death rates declined for 14
of the 20 most common cancers. Death rates decreased for cancer sites, including lung and bronchus (men and women), colorectal
(men and women), female breast, and prostate. Death rates increased for cancers of the liver (men and women); pancreas (men and
women); brain and other nervous system (men and women); oral cavity and pharynx (men only); soft tissue, including heart (men
only); nonmelanoma skin (men only); and uterus. Incidence and death rates were higher among men than among women for all racial
and ethnic groups. For all cancer sites combined, black men and white women had the highest incidence rates compared with other
racial groups, and black men and black women had the highest death rates compared with other racial groups. Non-Hispanic men
and women had higher incidence and mortality rates than those of Hispanic ethnicity. Five-year survival for cases diagnosed from
2007 through 2013 ranged from 100% (stage I) to 26.5% (stage IV) for female breast cancer, from 88.1% (stage I) to 12.6% (stage IV)
for colorectal cancer, from 55.

Andy Sylvan was the assistant director of the community developm.docx
Andy Sylvan was the assistant director of the community development department of the city of Greenwood. Greenwood was an outer suburb of the capital city, and while most of its citizens were affluent, it did have a pocket of residential poverty near a riverbank across from an urban industrial complex. Sylvan was active in writing grant proposals for both federal and state funding of a redevelopment project. One of his state grant applications was successful, and the state government awarded a block grant of $3 million for renovation of the area. The renovation money would permit the community development department to purchase land and build a park near the area’s elementary school, to pave several streets, and to improve the storm drainage system. Money would also be available to bring plumbing systems in several homes up to code standards. Sylvan’s boss, Rose Almindinger, was a political appointee who was well connected to leaders of the local Republican Party.
While she had had administrative experience with a construction firm, she had never been in charge of financial affairs in any sense beyond balancing her personal checkbook. One has to seriously question if she did that very well. What she seemed not to understand was that the moneys that came from state grants were not to be mixed with her private bank accounts. Almindinger was sort of like George Washington Plunkitt
1
in that she believed in honest graft, that is, when she saw her opportunity, she took it. The grant and its block structure sure looked like an opportunity. After all, just what is community development? Almindinger saw a chance to arrange bids for street construction so that her former company could win the business at a higher price than others would charge. A glaring loophole in the grant system seemed to suggest that she could award contracts without going through the city’s purchasing and bidding systems. She also found leeway to attend a conference on park development in Hawaii on the state’s dollar. A friend of hers ran a travel agency and she was more than anxious to help Rose. In fact, she told Almindinger that she could bill her for travel expenses for both her and her husband in a way that it would appear that all airline costs were for one person. The two enjoyed 7 days on Maui, all expenses paid by the city, while Mrs. Rose Almindinger made brief appearances at the 2-day conference. Almindinger also hired four political friends for temporary jobs on grant projects, paying them $40 an hour. No one managed the four, and only Almindinger received reports of their work. Their employment cost the grant $30,000 in just 2 months.
While there was evidence of some improvements being made in the grant project neighborhood, rumors of waste, fraud, and abuse started to circulate. One of Almindinger’s appointees had a penchant to be verbally abusive to certain assistants in the department office, and the assistants had contacted the city personnel director. Sylvan.
Annotated Bibliography Althaus, F. U.S. Maternal Morta.docx
Annotated Bibliography
Althaus, F. “U.S. Maternal Mortality Has Continued Its Decline, but Risk Remains Higher
among Minority Women.” Family Planning Perspective, vol. 23, no. 3, May 1991, pp.
140–141. EBSCOhost, doi: 10.2307/2135829.
According to the article by F. Althaus, the development in the American health system
has continuously transformed the health sector and the delivery environment among expectant
mothers. When compared to the previous era, expectant White-American mothers are delivering
safely, specifically those who live in states where the quality of health infrastructure and services
are high. Unfortunately, though, the population of people of color’s maternal mortality rate is
increasingly reporting the highest in minority communities due to the low quality of health
infrastructure and services in their living environments. Althaus presents that both maternal and
child mortality rates among Black mothers are three times that of Whites. This author stretches
the discussion to address the long history of birth oppression among Black mothers and the
strategies that have been applied to suppress these oppressions. The author outlines that the
Black, marginalized, population contributes significantly to the American ecosystem. Therefore,
providing quality service, especially for the expectant mothers of color, should be something the
federal government sees as a must do instead of coming up with illegal family planning
approaches with a hidden agendas. It is imperative that equity prevails for all races during
maternity and childbirth.
El Sayed, Abdulrahman M., et al.: Social Environment, Genetics, and Black-White
Disparities in Infant Mortality."Paediatric & Perinatal Epidemiology, Vol.29. no.6.
November.2015.pp.546-551.EBSCOhost.doi:10.1111/ppe.12227
The above article presents information on genetics and one’s surroundings as the factors
that interplay and produce the wellness of the population within a given place. The article
discusses parental race differences and vulnerabilities of infant mortality rates through studying
how genes and a person’s environment could shape these perinatal vulnerabilities. El Sayed
found that the dynamic of child deaths continue to increase among the black community with
said improvement in the health sector impacting only the white population. Instead of genetics
being the main impact on child deaths, it is shown that race-driven prejudice and structural
socio-economic opportunities of social surroundings is a great explanation of why there are
racial differences in infant mortality rates. Despite these factors being proven to be contributing
to the number of deaths among infants, the government does little to address the associated risk
factors. The author recommends that the federal government could mitigate the social factors and
introduce more diverse healthcare providers to promote wellness among Black-American
expectant mothers.

Ann, a community nurse, made an afternoon home visit with Susan and .docx
Ann, a community nurse, made an afternoon home visit with Susan and her father. After the death of her mother, Susan had growing concerns about her father living alone. "I worry about my father all the time. He is becoming more forgetful and he has trouble seeing. Mom used to take care of him. I am not sleeping and I am irritable around him. Yesterday I shouted at him because he wouldn't let me help him with his laundry. I felt terrible! I am at my wits' end! My brothers and sisters do not want to put dad in a nursing home but they are not willing to help out. As usual, they have left me with all the responsibility. I work part time and have two small children to care for.” Susan's father, Sam, sat quietly with tears filling his eyes. He was well nourished and well-groomed but would not make eye contact. Nurse Ann noticed that the house was clean and orderly. A tray in front of the TV had the remains of a ham sandwich and glass of ice tea. Mail was piled up, unopened on a small table near the front door. There was only one car in the driveway and the yard was in need of attention.

Andrea Walters Week 2 Main Post The key functional area of n.docx
Andrea Walters' Week 2 Main Post: The key functional area of nursing informatics relevant to me is education and consultant. Education is relevant as newly hired nurses need education to be competent with the electronic health records (EHR) used in the specialty. I precept nurses new to oncology and educate them on how informatics is used in oncology, how data is placed into the EHRs and how then used by informaticists. Consultant is relevant when there has been an issue, I have been used as a consultant and a liaison between nursing science and computer science. I have given my knowledge to the EHR developers on how they may better serve other oncology practices. Although I have been used as a consultant, oncology is constantly changing. Technology informatics guiding education reform (TIGER) has core competencies for specific areas. One core competency area under direct patient care is enhance information and knowledge management (Hubner et al., 2018). This competency will aid me to become more proficient in oncology and using a database by engaging in researching upcoming and new evidence-based practice. This competency is necessary to help identify problems and become part of the solution instead of waiting on the organization to develop solutions. The plan for developing this competency is to subscribe to an oncology journal, such as The Oncology Nurse to further my education outside of work, and research evidence-based practice through the organization’s research database, CINHAL. I will set aside 30 minutes twice weekly to research and read to develop this competency. Developing this competency will help refine and improve my skills and move from being a good to an expert nurse consultant and educator. Continuing education concentrating on informatics is necessary for all nurses in order to productively participate with content and dialogue that correlates to the informatics realm as nursing informatics is a rapidly changing field (Yen, Kennedy, Phillips & Collin, 2017).

Analytical Research Project Instructions
INFA 630 – Intrusion Detection and Intrusion Prevention
Summary
This is a paper describing the results of an analytical research project, worth 25% of your total grade. Your paper should be 10-12 pages, double-spaced, exclusive of cover, title page, table of contents, endnotes and bibliography. Your paper must use APA formatting with the exception that tables and figures can be inserted at the appropriate location rather than added at the end. Following UMUC policy, all students must upload their papers to Turnitin.com (following instructions provided by your instructor), produce and review an originality report, and submit the final version of the paper to your Assignment Folder prior to the submission deadline.
Paper Topic Selection
Prior to writing your paper, you must submit a short, ungraded, topic proposal. You should submit your intended research paper topic by the end of Session 3. The purpose of this preliminary milestone is to provide your instructor the opportunity to confirm the appropriateness of your proposed topic, sufficiently early in the course to allow for topic revision if necessary. It will be helpful if you include, with your proposed paper topic, the sort of research you intend to do and any specific sources you may have already found or plan to use in researching your topic. Your instructor will provide feedback on the suitability of the proposed topic by the start of Session 5. Students who do not provide a proposed topic will be preparing their research papers "at risk;"
i.e.
, they will run the risk of delivering a paper reflecting research that is not suitable for this course.
Analytical Research Project
The purpose of the Research Project is to develop an in-depth understanding of the intrusion detection and/or prevention technology and the way in which such technology is used to protect specific computing environments against specific threats. To arrive at this understanding, your project may choose to follow either one of two analytical approaches:
1. Analysis of a tool or technique including functional applicability and limitations
2. Analysis of environmental security requirements and technologies to meet those requirements
Tool-centric Research
: Projects of the first type will focus on a specific tool, technique, or method used in intrusion detection or intrusion prevention. Choosing a topic for this type of project will mean selecting the tool you want to research and analyze and developing a research question or thesis statement that your research is intended to answer. The analysis for a tool-centric research project should emphasize the use and application of the tool, technique, or method rather than a simple explanation of its features. If you choose a product or tool with a broad set of capabilities, you may choose to provide an analysis of one or more aspects of the tool. The paper distills fundamental issues, focuses on one available solution, a.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
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.

Operation Blue Star - Saka Neela Tara
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people.
