The formal process of amending the Constitution is cumbersome and slow. While this fact explains why relatively few amendments have been adopted, it does not discourage advocates of constitutional change from proposing them. Four amendment proposals that have gained considerable attention are the Balanced Budget Amendment, the Birthright Citizenship Amendment, the Equal Rights Amendment, and the Overturn Citizens United Amendment. Select one of these proposals as the topic of your initial post and use the assigned resources to inform yourself about its purpose and the arguments of its supporters and critics. Before writing your initial post, review the assigned resources . In your initial post of at least 200-250 words, briefly summarize what the proposed amendment would do and the problem its proponents say it will solve. Explain the main pros and cons in the debate about the amendment. Evaluate the proposed amendment from two perspectives: Your own political philosophy, values or ideology. (Justify your assessment by clearly explaining your political values and why they lead you to support or oppose the amendment.) The likelihood that the proposed amendment will eventually be ratified to become part of the Constitution. (Justify your assessment by explaining how the proposal will or will not, in your judgment, survive the ratification process.) Fully respond to all parts of the question. Write in your own words. Support your position with APA citations to two or more of the assigned resources required for this discussion. Please be sure that you demonstrate understanding of these resources, integrate them into your argument, and cite them properly. .

Spend some time watching the proceedings if it is currently in session. Locate the bills pending before the legislative body you are viewing. For the US House of Representatives, this is located on the right hand side of your screen under “Bills and Reports” but it should be easy to locate for your state legislature as well. Select one of the pending bills about which to write in your post. The bill you choose should relate to the human needs you discussed last week and/or the human services profession. Respond to the following questions regarding this bill: · State the name of the bill you have chosen and describe what it hopes to accomplish. · Make an argument for the passage of this legislation, i.e. Who would it help? Why is it important? · Now make the opposite argument. Why should it not be passed? What are some of the issues with this bill as it is written? · Relate this bill to the historical development of the human services profession. In what ways would passage of this bill continue the work that was started by early human service professionals? · Discuss how members of the human service profession might impact the passage of this bill.

Assignment 1 Requirements For your first assignment you are required to summarize a recent article. Your article summary should relate to the material covered in your textbook. In the back of your book, there is a glossary of key terms that appear in the text. Your article summary should correspond to key concepts discussed in chapters 1 through 9. Here is what you need to do for this activity: * Find an article in one of the resources listed on the syllabus (Wall Street Journal, Business Week, Economist and American Banker) that relates to these chapters. It needs to be a recent article (no older than November 2018). * Summarize the article and list its association to specific chapter material or concepts in your textbook. State the reason(s) for your selection. * Provide a definition for the specific concept discussed in your selected article. For example, if the article discusses securitization you should include its definition: securitization is setting aside a group of income earning assets and issuing securities against them in order to raise new funds. * List some important points or lessons learned from this article. * Provide a full copy of the article (links are not acceptable). A sample article has been posted in the “Assignment 1 Dropbox” in the Assignments area. Article Title and Date of the Article Why the ABA Got Hacked — and What It Means for Banks American Banker October 2, 2015 Summary: The ABA (American Bankers Association) announced that its website had been hacked, resulting in access to 6,400 users' email addresses and passwords. This is the first breach ever for the ABA. Although it has been targeted in the past, this time hackers got away with user passwords and IDs. The hackers targeted the shopping cart with a likely motive of also accessing user credit card information. The hackers were able to get away with email addresses and passwords to try and use them in other websites like Amazon or airline sites. The ABA strongly recommends that if users use the same passwords for other sites to change their passwords immediately. The true motives behind the ABA breach may never be known. "We only hear about the really high-profile cases," Hayes said. "Everybody is being breached and this is happening on a daily basis." Association to specific chapter material and concepts 4.10 Banking in Homes, Offices, Stores, and on the Street Chapter 4 covers the establishment of new banks, branches, ATMs, telephone services and websites.

It does not need to be formal and is not intended to take overly long to write. It is, however, intended to foster critical reflection on your part, and must be informed by ideas from the course. (It is fine to disagree with ideas presented in course lectures or readings; however, you should write about these ideas in a way which clarifies that you know what those course materials have stated, and that you are asserting a different opinion.) If you cite specific sources (not required), you should include citations following one of the major citational styles. .

Assignment 1: Privatizing the U.S. Money Supply Would it be possible to privatize the money supply in the United States completely? In doing so, what would be the primary obstacle to overcome in implementing such a policy? By Thursday, February 1, 2013 , post your initial discussion response in the M4: Assignment 1 Discussion Area. By Wednesday, February 6, 2013 , Assignment 2: The Multiplier Effect Go to “ FRB: Press Release—FOMC statement—December 16, 2009 .” You should now find a press release from the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, dated December 16, 2009, which discusses the decisions of the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) for that date. This release also states that the Federal Reserve is in the process of purchasing $1.25 trillion of agency mortgage-backed securities and about $175 billion of agency debt. Additionally, the release states that the FOMC has decided to gradually reduce “the pace” of such Fed purchases. Discuss why you believe that the FOMC has made such a decision, and explain the consequences of such a decision on the economy. In your answer, discuss the Federal Reserve’s use of open-market operations to influence the money supply and the respective consequences of such actions. Include a discussion of the money multiplier effect in your response. Justify your conclusions and provide appropriate examples. Using Microsoft Word, submit your responses in the form of a short paper ( 2 pages). By Monday, February 4, 2013 I. How does open market operation (OMO) affect economic activity: OMO refers to the sale /purchase of securities (government) by the FED to other banks, institutional buyers and financial institutions in order to influence the total money circulating in the system. Ina recession when the govt wants consumers to spend more it purchases these securities. This releases more funds into the coffers of these institutions, which allows them to use these to extend more credit and raise consumption and investments. the opposite happens in a boom period. When the government wants to reduce spending and arrest rising prices it takes away funds by offering to sell its own securities. Financial institutions buys these and reduce the amount left with them for credit purposes. Since the FOMC is the policy making branch of the FED it is responsible for any decisions on sale/purchase of securities as well as the price at which these transactions happen. The article is a part of that decision making. It outlines the decisions taken and elucidates the reasons behind the former. Therefore the influence on the economy of OMO is via changes in money supply . II. reasons for the FOMC decision recent data has been encouraging on a front of fronts, which signalled a recovery from the financial meltdown of 2009. But this recovery was slow compared to most recoveries from previous recessions. Signs of a recovery include: · In the residential real estate sector, home sales and construction .

J., Mastrofski, S. D., & Weisburd, D. (2003). Compstat in practice: An in-depth analysis of three cities. Police Foundation. Retrievable here . In 1994, the New York City Police Department adopted a law enforcement crime fighting strategy known as COMPSTAT (COMPuter STATistics). COMPSTAT uses Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to map the locations of where crimes occur, identify “ hotspots”, and map problem areas. COMPSTAT has amassed a wealth of historical crime data. Mathematicians have designed and developed algorithms that run against the historical data to predict future crimes for police departments. This is known as predictive policing. Predictive policing has led to a drop in burglaries, automobile thefts, and other crimes in some cities. Write a four to five (4-5) page paper in which you: Compare and contrast the application of information technology (IT) to optimize police departments’ performance to reduce crime versus random patrols of the streets. Describe how COMPSTAT, as an information system (IS), implements the four (4) basic IS functions: Input Processing Output Feedback Determine how information systems have allowed police departments that implement tools such as COMPSTAT to respond to crime faster. Apply the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats analysis (SWOT analysis) on behalf of police departments that intend to implement predictive policing.

Assignment 1: Political Belief Profile The relationship between public opinion and political participation raises many questions associated with how the public thinks, why they behave in the manner they do, and what outcomes in the form of ideological expressions will probably take place because of citizens’ behavior in the political scenario. Essentially, “who, what, and where” issues again surface in response to evaluation of political socialization. Political socialization may be expressed in a singular way, depending on the issue of concern, but it is not derived from any single impact throughout the life of American voters and nonvoters. Qualities and conditions such as gender, race, economic status, education, and religion impact voter behaviors. Indeed, whether or not an individual votes, or takes part in any of the varied available options for participation, is closely allied with the political socialization of individuals and even entire socioeconomic groups. The Political Compass Web site ( http://www.politicalcompass.org ) offers a self-test that helps you analyze your personal political views on what the test authors call a “left–right” scale. Take the test and review your results to see where you stand on the economic scale and the social scale. Discuss the results using the following questions: Did your “test result” match what you thought were your political beliefs? What is “politically correct” thinking? Give examples of what might be considered “politically correct” and “politically incorrect.” To what degree do you think your values and beliefs represent the norms, values, and traditions of society? Define your answer using the following Likert scale—extremely common, common, moderately common, uncommon, and extremely uncommon. Write your response in 150–200 words. By Saturday, May 31, 2014 , post your response to the appropriate Discussion Area . Through Wednesday, June 4, 2014 , review and comment on at least three peers’ responses. .

Alan Cabelly, Ph.D. 2 Case Overview Part A In August, Jason Hubbs submitted a résumé to the human resource department of Big Time Computers Inc. in response to an advertisement in the local newspaper for a senior technical writer. The résumé was forwarded to Big Time’s Manager of Technical Publications, Lisa Cavanaugh, for her consideration. Big Time Computers is a local high-tech firm with sales offices throughout the United States and Europe. At the time of the senior technical writer job advertisement, Big Time employed about 1,200 people. Big Time designs and manufactures high-end computer systems that sell in the $500,000 to $6,000,000 range. Big Time’s products are sophisticated and complex, and the working atmosphere is highly technical. The engineering department is the largest and most dominant department. Engineers are in management positions throughout the company, including top-level management. Due to the sophistication and complexity of their products, employees in marketing, customer service, and technical publications are required to have strong technical backgrounds; many have engineering or computer science degrees. The technical publications department employed 14 people. This included the manager, two senior writers (Mark Samson and Chris Murray), seven writers, one technical editor (Colton Hamrick), and three editorial assistants. The manager had a business degree and had been working in the technical publications field for 12 years. The senior writers had four-year engineering degrees; the other seven writers had engineering degrees, computer science degrees, or two-year associate’s degrees in a technical field. The technical editor had an English degree and an associate’s degree in electronics, and the editorial assistants had English or liberal arts degre.

Assignment 1: Organizing HR Projects In order to effect a more centralized model of delivering Human Resources services, there are core project functions that must be undertaken to ensure success as well as ascertaining that all parties are motivated to working with the new model. Establishing a new project team requires orientation to the overall goals and objectives in a bid to ensure that every team member is well aware of both intermediate and final goals. This will act as a guidance to the team making processes and functions easier. On the other hand, successful implementation requires strategic planning which is about allocation of resources, planning, and scheduling in a manner that optimizes the available resources and performing within the budget and the timeline (Neluheni, Pretorius & Ukpere, 2014). In this respect, it is the duty of the project manager or leader to guide and oversee the various processes and activities in a bid to ensure that the desired goals and objectives are being achieved. The Statement of Overall Importance When implementing the project, the overall steps of strategic planning are important to start, progress, and finish of the project. There are distinct steps such as vision where the overall goals and desired outcomes are communicated to the parties involved in the accomplishment of the task. Other steps such as planning also highlights the importance of laying down the strategy for attaining various tasks where resources are allocated optimally in a manner that avoids wastage. As a project leader, it is highly important that strategic planning is undertaken. In the field of project management, studies have shown that failure to effectively plan is one of the major contributors to failure especially when it comes to performing within the deadline and budget (Kerzner, 2013). A project manager must be able to put in place a plan that has goals and objectives that must be communicated to the concerned parties such as the team members. Actually, it is deemed best practice when a leader involves other parties such as team members in formulating a plan which improves the diversity of the decisions made. The steps provided in the texts is highly important to the project. It is imperative to note that project management is nowadays strategic meaning that it must align with overall strategic direction of the organization. Majority of organizations are currently funding projects that are seen to have a direct influence on the strategic direction of the organization. For instance, in this case, it can be seen that the goal is to ensure easier and more efficient management of human resources which have become a strategic tool as opposed to a supporting function it has been over the previous decades. In essence, the strategic planning process will help outline goals, communicate the plans, and strategize on how various tasks and processes will be accomplished in line with desired goals.

Assignment 1: more information Assignment 1: More about the task Task From the Unit Information: “The design of environmental studies is without exception a compromise between cost and information. This translates almost directly into a balance between Type I and Type II errors. Define Type I and Type II errors, as the relate to environmental studies, and discuss the differing importance and implications of these two kinds of problems. Use examples of different kinds of monitoring situations (i.e. objectives) in your essay. Assessment criteria Definition: 20% of mark Assessed on the basis of: · the clarity of the definition, · the completeness of the definition, and · the accuracy of the definition. Discussion of Type I & II errors: 40% for each type Assessed on the basis of: · the range of examples used, · the validity of the examples used, · the way in which the examples are used to display how the effects of the errors vary in different circumstances, and · the way in which the examples are used to display how the significance of the errors varies in different circumstances. More about the first part of the essay: the definition The Study Guide, tapes and readings actually discuss the nature of Type I and II errors in some depth. In this part of the essay I am asking you to translate this discussion into your own words and, by doing this, convince me that you really understand the nature of these errors and how they arise. The three assessment criteria for this part of the essay focus on what I think is crucial here. · The clarity of your definition. Can I easily understand what you have written and what you mean? You usually need to understand something fairly well to be able to explain it clearly. · The completeness of your definition. Does your definition, and discussion, cover all the important issues? It is important here not to go “overboard”. For instance (and I’ll give you this tip for free), one issue that is relevant to Type II errors is power. But, while it is appropriate to consider power, an extended discussion of what affects power is not. · The accuracy of your definition. Simply, is what you have written correct? It would, for instance, not be correct to state that the chance of a Type I error was influenced by the cost of the instruments used to collect the data! I’ve said this before but it is important enough to be worth repeating: this section of the essay is worth only 20% so 20 marks is the most you can get, regardless of how good your definition is. Submitting a five page essay, with four pages devoted to the definition, is not likely to be a successful strategy! More about the second part of the essay: the examples This is the main part of the essay. In the past, I’ve been hesitant to provide examples because I didn’t want to steer people’s thinking in particular directions. This year I’ve decided to include an example (although a very silly one) to give you a bit more guidance. Assignment 1: more.
