Abstract
Purpose: This study produced a rich description of the lived experiences of
tuberculosis (TB) treatment among Mexican Americans living in the Lower
Rio Grande Valley (LRGV) of Texas.
Design: This qualitative study used phenomenological methodology, guided
by Merleau-Ponty’s philosophical framework, particularly his theories on
mind–body influence, fabric of relationships, importance of culture, and equi-
librium. A purposive sample was recruited through TB clinics in four south
Texas border counties: Hidalgo, Cameron, Starr, and Willacy, which make up
the LRGV. Interviews from 18 participants—5 women and 13 men—were con-
ducted in the participant’s preferred language. Interviews were analyzed for
common themes as described by Cohen Kahn and Steeves.
Findings: The majority of interviews were conducted in Spanish. Five themes
were discovered: (a) day-to-day life during Directly Observed Therapy treat-
ment, (b) signs and symptoms, (c) familismo, (d) living on the border, and (e)
stigma.
Conclusions: TB treatment can create a high level of patient burden. The
participants in TB treatment in the LRGV on the Texas-Mexico border reported
a high level of stigma. Due to this stigma, patients struggled to find a balance
between exposure to stigma and the support from family that buoyed them
through treatment.
Clinical Relevance: The findings support the importance of addressing
stigma and the resulting sense of isolation in patients being treated for TB, per-
haps through bolstering support from family and healthcare providers, which
is relevant for public health professionals working in regions with high rates of
TB.
Over 20 years ago, the World Health Organization (WHO)
recommended that patients with active tuberculosis (TB)
be monitored on a daily basis through the Directly Ob-
served Therapy Short Course (DOTS) program to improve
outcomes, decrease incidence, and decrease resistance to
treatment (WHO, 2011). In DOTS, a trained healthcare
representative watches a TB patient swallow each dose
of TB medication, ensuring that the patient takes every
dose of the prescribed antibiot.

CLOUD COMPUTING
Assessment item 3 - AWS implementation – 10%
Overview
This assessment item requires you to produce a short report for some of the Technical and
Development staff of DSI.
Task
DSI is starting to migrate some of its applications and services to a public cloud. Many of the technical staff have had no experience in the Cloud and are concerned about this process. You have recommended to DSI management that they should consider the use of microservices as part of their application architecture. DSI now want you to redesign one of their monolithic applications as a microservice application DSI has an old and image and video processing application. This is used by a number of DSI customers to upload images and videos for inclusion in spatial layers for their own use. DSI create the specialised layer for each customer and supply it to them when complete. The application has a number of modules as shown in Figure 1, below. Some of these modules may not need any development work done on them for long periods of time as their functions and outputs are relatively stable. Other modules though can be modified quite frequently as changes occur in the Industry. Other modules experience great peaks in workload which often slows services to DSI customers.
1. You are to assess each of the modules shown in Figure 1 above, and determine:
a. Which modules are likely to be relatively stable, a together with the reasons for this
categorisation,
b. Which modules are likely to require frequent modification, together with the reasons
for this categorisation,
c. Which modules are likely to experience workload peaks, together with the reasons for
this categorisation.
2. DSI wants to transition to a microservice approach with the Image and Video Processing Application. But they want to move in a phased approach so that they can handle the workload peaks first.
a. Which modules should be refactored first?
b. Discuss how a move to a microservice approach for these modules would resolve
issues around workload peaks?
3. Discuss how a move to a microservice approach will improve DSI’s ability to maintain high availability for this application.
4. Draw a diagram that shows the architecture of the Image and Video Processing Application after the transition to a microservice approach.

Psychotherapy of
Schizophrenia: A Brief History
and the Potential to Promote
Recovery
Paul H. Lysaker1 and Steven M. Silverstein2
Abstract
With growing awareness of the likelihood of recovery from schizophrenia, interest has
arisen about the potential role of psychotherapy within emerging treatment regimens. Could
psychotherapy uniquely promote recovery by addressing symptoms, the achievement of
psychosocial milestones, and/or helping to enhance the extent to which persons diagnosed with
schizophrenia experience themselves as meaningful agents in the world? As an introduction to
a set of case studies of how psychotherapy can promote recovery this article briefly reviews
the history of the psychotherapy of schizophrenia. In particular the appearance and course
of psychoanalytically oriented treatments, as well as cognitively and interpersonally based
treatments are detailed. Evidence supporting these approaches and remaining questions for
research are discussed.
Keywords
schizophrenia, recovery, psychotherapy, psychosis
Recent reviews have suggested that contrary to long-standing pessimistic views, most people with
schizophrenia do not experience lifelong dysfunction. Instead, most with this condition move
meaningfully toward or achieve recovery over the course of their lives (Bellack, 2006; Lysaker &
Buck, 2008; Silverstein, Spaulding, & Menditto, 2006). They may not only experience improve-
ments with regard to symptoms or function, but also positive changes in how persons think about
and experience themselves as individual human beings in the world (Resnick, Rosenheck, &
Lehman, 2004; Roe, 2001; Silverstein & Bellack, 2008). As a result of growing awareness of this
possibility, interest has arisen in whether some forms of psychotherapy could play an important
role in treatment. Given literature suggesting psychotherapy may help a wide range of people
without psychosis to develop both a richer sense of self and a more adaptive self-concept
(Hermans & Dimaggio, 2005), it is now asked whether it could do the same for many with schizo-
phrenia and thereby uniquely promote recovery (Lysaker & Lysaker, 2008).
To explore this question and a wide range of related concerns, this issue of Clinical Case Stud-
ies is devoted to case studies of the processes by which individual psychotherapy can promote
recovery. Therapies which range from office to community based and from existential to

Culturally Sensitive Treatment
of Anger in African American
Women: A Single Case Study
A. Antonio González-Prendes and Shirley A. Thomas
Abstract
Culturally sensitive clinical practice challenges practitioners to recognize the cultural significance
and importance of clients’ behaviors and belief systems. This article reports a case study of the
treatment of anger in an African American woman. Presented within a framework of cognitive-
behavioral theory, the case illuminates three important issues that influence experience and
expression of anger in African American women: the influence of gender role socialization
on the mode of anger expression; the experience of powerlessness, rooted in historical and
contemporary discriminatory and oppressive realities; and culture-related messages that
create unrealistic expectations of strength. The article addresses conceptualization, assessment,
treatment processes, and clinical strategies, as well as limitations of a single case study, implications
for practice and recommendations for future research.
Keywords
African American women, anger treatment, cultural sensitivity, cognitive-behavioral
1 Theoretical and Research Basis
Culturally sensitive treatment approaches must be able to conceptualize, recognize, and evaluate
the client’s belief system and behaviors within the context of the client’s gender, race and culture,
among other factors. This is particularly important when working with individuals from minori-
ties and other traditionally disempowered groups, whose beliefs and behaviors run the risk of
being pathologized when taken out of the context of their cultures and measured against the
standards of the dominant group. This article presents and discusses, within the framework of a
case study, central elements of a culturally sensitive approach to the treatment of anger problems
in an African American woman. The conceptual model for the treatment approach suggests that,
if anger in African American women is to be understood accurately, it must be viewed through
the twin prisms of gender and race (Thomas & González-Prendes, 2009). Previous studies have
underscored the idea that, in order to develop an accurate understanding of the emotional experi-
ence of women of color, one must be able to integrate issues related to gender, culture, and race

Climate Change
What every designer should know.
This is a short presentation covering climate change fundamentals for design students and professionals. Climate change is an important topic for designers to be aware of and responsive to, because designers help create the world we live in. The choices designers make, in what they make, how its made, what its made of, how its used, and what happens to it after it’s disposed of, can impact large numbers of people and the environment. This is what you need to know.
1
Our planet’s climate is controlled by its atmosphere. You can see our atmosphere isn’t very big. It’s a thin protective coating stretched over the earth’s surface. But that thin protective coating is surprisingly important. Without it, our planet would have no life whatsoever. Its surface would be as barren and freezing as the moon you see in the background. A healthy atmosphere is a precondition of life.
2
Our planet has had a relatively stable and predictable climate for much of the last 10,000 years. It is no accident that agriculture began within this time period, a period characterized by relative peace and stable civilizations.
3
The climate has been so stable, we tend to completely ignore it and take it for granted, not even being aware how much we rely upon it. But we rely on a stable, predictable, and moderate climate for such basic and vital activities as growing food, placing and designing settlements, and many, many other things.
4
Here’s the entire volume of the earth’s atmosphere in comparison to the volume of the earth itself: again, not very big. Because the earth’s atmosphere is not very big, it is sensitive to relatively small changes. The composition and relative amounts of chemicals inside that little ball play a big role in how the atmosphere functions.
5
Here’s the composition and relative amounts of the chemicals inside that little ball. You can see carbon dioxide is a relatively miniscule part of the earth’s atmosphere. Yet the relative amount of this molecule and a few others has an outsized role in controlling our planet’s climate, because of how these molecules react to sunlight.
6
A large portion of the sun’s radiation is absorbed at the surface of the Earth. This heat then re-radiates back into the atmosphere, and then back out into space. The atmosphere holds on to some of that heat for a time, before it leaks back out into space.
7
Some atmospheric molecules hold onto this heat longer than others, which is why they are known as “greenhouse gases”. Like a greenhouse in the sun, atmospheric gases like carbon dioxide hold on to the heat re-radiating from the earth for a relatively long time. This is why the earth’s climate is sensitive to small changes in the relative amounts of these particular molecules. There are other greenhouse gases besides carbon dioxide, such as methane, nitrous oxide, and water vapor. Some of these trap heat even more powerfully than c.

Assignment 1: Applications of Epidemiology – A Case Study
Due Week 3 and worth 280 points
The situation at Good Health Hospital has become a bit overwhelming ever since the outbreak of E. coli in Ward 10 on the second floor. It appears that there are six (6) cases of the disease. To better understand the situation, communication with the CDC has revealed that this particular bacterium can be found in many everyday items. The CDC recommends that investigation begins in the hospital kitchens, since E. coli can be transmitted via contaminated vegetables, as well as delicatessen meats such as salami and other cold cuts. The following table shows the number of cases identified so far:
Case
Age
Gender
1 23 M 2 21 F 3 15 M 4 42 F
After meeting yesterday with chief administrator Joe Wellborn, it has been decided that the litigation issues with one (1) of the patients may need further information to determine if the patient was already symptomatic with the bacteria prior to admission.
Research has indicated that hospitals operating in the Tampa Bay area have been known to have cases of E. coli contamination. This substantiates the need for further investigations by the County Health Department.
Due to the severity of the cases, and the potential for further spread, it is recommended that the hospital seek alternate vending services since the present suppliers cannot verify sanitation protocols for their products.
In conclusion, the study done at Good Health Hospital has indicated that the E. coli outbreak was in fact caused by spoil food from the cafeteria.
As a social science researcher working for a regional hospital, you are placed in charge of contacting the DOH from your home state, as well as the CDC for statistical data on nosocomial diseases that frequently cause illness at your health care facility. Using information from both agencies, evaluate the data on common nosocomial diseases and compile a treatment contingency plan for dealing with the hospital infections.
Write a five to six (5-6) page evaluation report in which you:
Analyze Good Health Hospital’s records and itemize recent nosocomial infections that occurred within the past year. In your report, categorize the different parameters (i.e., person, time, place, ethnicity, and gender) used in the compilation of data into the information summative.
Propose at least six (6) questions for the health care administrator at Good Health Hospital, regarding potential litigation issues with infections from the nosocomial diseases. Rationalize, in your report, the logic behind your six (6) questions.
Identify a targeted audience within Good Health Hospital, and prepare an implementation plan based on your hypothetical meeting with the hospital health care admi.

Psychotherapy of
Schizophrenia: A Brief History
and the Potential to Promote
Recovery
Paul H. Lysaker1 and Steven M. Silverstein2
Abstract
With growing awareness of the likelihood of recovery from schizophrenia, interest has
arisen about the potential role of psychotherapy within emerging treatment regimens. Could
psychotherapy uniquely promote recovery by addressing symptoms, the achievement of
psychosocial milestones, and/or helping to enhance the extent to which persons diagnosed with
schizophrenia experience themselves as meaningful agents in the world? As an introduction to
a set of case studies of how psychotherapy can promote recovery this article briefly reviews
the history of the psychotherapy of schizophrenia. In particular the appearance and course
of psychoanalytically oriented treatments, as well as cognitively and interpersonally based
treatments are detailed. Evidence supporting these approaches and remaining questions for
research are discussed.
Keywords
schizophrenia, recovery, psychotherapy, psychosis
Recent reviews have suggested that contrary to long-standing pessimistic views, most people with
schizophrenia do not experience lifelong dysfunction. Instead, most with this condition move
meaningfully toward or achieve recovery over the course of their lives (Bellack, 2006; Lysaker &
Buck, 2008; Silverstein, Spaulding, & Menditto, 2006). They may not only experience improve-
ments with regard to symptoms or function, but also positive changes in how persons think about
and experience themselves as individual human beings in the world (Resnick, Rosenheck, &
Lehman, 2004; Roe, 2001; Silverstein & Bellack, 2008). As a result of growing awareness of this
possibility, interest has arisen in whether some forms of psychotherapy could play an important
role in treatment. Given literature suggesting psychotherapy may help a wide range of people
without psychosis to develop both a richer sense of self and a more adaptive self-concept
(Hermans & Dimaggio, 2005), it is now asked whether it could do the same for many with schizo-
phrenia and thereby uniquely promote recovery (Lysaker & Lysaker, 2008).
To explore this question and a wide range of related concerns, this issue of Clinical Case Stud-
ies is devoted to case studies of the processes by which individual psychotherapy can promote
recovery. Therapies which range from office to community based and from existential to

Culturally Sensitive Treatment
of Anger in African American
Women: A Single Case Study
A. Antonio González-Prendes and Shirley A. Thomas
Abstract
Culturally sensitive clinical practice challenges practitioners to recognize the cultural significance
and importance of clients’ behaviors and belief systems. This article reports a case study of the
treatment of anger in an African American woman. Presented within a framework of cognitive-
behavioral theory, the case illuminates three important issues that influence experience and
expression of anger in African American women: the influence of gender role socialization
on the mode of anger expression; the experience of powerlessness, rooted in historical and
contemporary discriminatory and oppressive realities; and culture-related messages that
create unrealistic expectations of strength. The article addresses conceptualization, assessment,
treatment processes, and clinical strategies, as well as limitations of a single case study, implications
for practice and recommendations for future research.
Keywords
African American women, anger treatment, cultural sensitivity, cognitive-behavioral
1 Theoretical and Research Basis
Culturally sensitive treatment approaches must be able to conceptualize, recognize, and evaluate
the client’s belief system and behaviors within the context of the client’s gender, race and culture,
among other factors. This is particularly important when working with individuals from minori-
ties and other traditionally disempowered groups, whose beliefs and behaviors run the risk of
being pathologized when taken out of the context of their cultures and measured against the
standards of the dominant group. This article presents and discusses, within the framework of a
case study, central elements of a culturally sensitive approach to the treatment of anger problems
in an African American woman. The conceptual model for the treatment approach suggests that,
if anger in African American women is to be understood accurately, it must be viewed through
the twin prisms of gender and race (Thomas & González-Prendes, 2009). Previous studies have
underscored the idea that, in order to develop an accurate understanding of the emotional experi-
ence of women of color, one must be able to integrate issues related to gender, culture, and race

Climate Change
What every designer should know.
This is a short presentation covering climate change fundamentals for design students and professionals. Climate change is an important topic for designers to be aware of and responsive to, because designers help create the world we live in. The choices designers make, in what they make, how its made, what its made of, how its used, and what happens to it after it’s disposed of, can impact large numbers of people and the environment. This is what you need to know.
1
Our planet’s climate is controlled by its atmosphere. You can see our atmosphere isn’t very big. It’s a thin protective coating stretched over the earth’s surface. But that thin protective coating is surprisingly important. Without it, our planet would have no life whatsoever. Its surface would be as barren and freezing as the moon you see in the background. A healthy atmosphere is a precondition of life.
2
Our planet has had a relatively stable and predictable climate for much of the last 10,000 years. It is no accident that agriculture began within this time period, a period characterized by relative peace and stable civilizations.
3
The climate has been so stable, we tend to completely ignore it and take it for granted, not even being aware how much we rely upon it. But we rely on a stable, predictable, and moderate climate for such basic and vital activities as growing food, placing and designing settlements, and many, many other things.
4
Here’s the entire volume of the earth’s atmosphere in comparison to the volume of the earth itself: again, not very big. Because the earth’s atmosphere is not very big, it is sensitive to relatively small changes. The composition and relative amounts of chemicals inside that little ball play a big role in how the atmosphere functions.
5
Here’s the composition and relative amounts of the chemicals inside that little ball. You can see carbon dioxide is a relatively miniscule part of the earth’s atmosphere. Yet the relative amount of this molecule and a few others has an outsized role in controlling our planet’s climate, because of how these molecules react to sunlight.
6
A large portion of the sun’s radiation is absorbed at the surface of the Earth. This heat then re-radiates back into the atmosphere, and then back out into space. The atmosphere holds on to some of that heat for a time, before it leaks back out into space.
7
Some atmospheric molecules hold onto this heat longer than others, which is why they are known as “greenhouse gases”. Like a greenhouse in the sun, atmospheric gases like carbon dioxide hold on to the heat re-radiating from the earth for a relatively long time. This is why the earth’s climate is sensitive to small changes in the relative amounts of these particular molecules. There are other greenhouse gases besides carbon dioxide, such as methane, nitrous oxide, and water vapor. Some of these trap heat even more powerfully than c.

Assignment 1: Applications of Epidemiology – A Case Study
Due Week 3 and worth 280 points
The situation at Good Health Hospital has become a bit overwhelming ever since the outbreak of E. coli in Ward 10 on the second floor. It appears that there are six (6) cases of the disease. To better understand the situation, communication with the CDC has revealed that this particular bacterium can be found in many everyday items. The CDC recommends that investigation begins in the hospital kitchens, since E. coli can be transmitted via contaminated vegetables, as well as delicatessen meats such as salami and other cold cuts. The following table shows the number of cases identified so far:
Case
Age
Gender
1 23 M 2 21 F 3 15 M 4 42 F
After meeting yesterday with chief administrator Joe Wellborn, it has been decided that the litigation issues with one (1) of the patients may need further information to determine if the patient was already symptomatic with the bacteria prior to admission.
Research has indicated that hospitals operating in the Tampa Bay area have been known to have cases of E. coli contamination. This substantiates the need for further investigations by the County Health Department.
Due to the severity of the cases, and the potential for further spread, it is recommended that the hospital seek alternate vending services since the present suppliers cannot verify sanitation protocols for their products.
In conclusion, the study done at Good Health Hospital has indicated that the E. coli outbreak was in fact caused by spoil food from the cafeteria.
As a social science researcher working for a regional hospital, you are placed in charge of contacting the DOH from your home state, as well as the CDC for statistical data on nosocomial diseases that frequently cause illness at your health care facility. Using information from both agencies, evaluate the data on common nosocomial diseases and compile a treatment contingency plan for dealing with the hospital infections.
Write a five to six (5-6) page evaluation report in which you:
Analyze Good Health Hospital’s records and itemize recent nosocomial infections that occurred within the past year. In your report, categorize the different parameters (i.e., person, time, place, ethnicity, and gender) used in the compilation of data into the information summative.
Propose at least six (6) questions for the health care administrator at Good Health Hospital, regarding potential litigation issues with infections from the nosocomial diseases. Rationalize, in your report, the logic behind your six (6) questions.
Identify a targeted audience within Good Health Hospital, and prepare an implementation plan based on your hypothetical meeting with the hospital health care admi.

Classic Combo PlateDirectionsBefore there were all th.docx
Classic Combo Plate
Directions:
Before there were all the cart options, I remember going to the cafes near campus that offered combo menus. For a reasonable price, the menu usually had two lists of items and you would choose one from column A and one from column B for a very satisfying lunch.
For our musical version of the combo plate, you are asked to select one composer from column A (just the big three) and one composer from column B (a very long Wikipedia page with composers listed by birth year)
Both composers must share the same, or nearly the same, birth year
. The latitude for this is no more than + or - 10 years. We want to place both of them solidly within the Classic era and also within roughly the same generation.
Find one movement of a piece of music by each. that is a total of two tracks for this assignment. Include a link to that specific movement of each piece so that readers of your post can quickly click it to listen. You may use Naxos (a bit easier to pinpoint the exact movement in a longer piece) or YouTube but you are responsible for providing the accurate url. Please be careful in YouTube that your music link takes your reader to exactly the movement you write about.
For each of these two tracks provides clearly the full title of each piece and the exact movement title or number if these are from multi-movement works.
Provide background information on both of the movements of music you have selected and some bio information on the lesser known composer from "column B". Include musical observations
based on your own listening
as you compare the two tracks. You may find it easier to make a targeted comparison if you select works of a similar genre (for instance, the first movement of a piano sonata by each composer, or the slow movement of a symphony by each, or the minuet movement of a string quartet, or a soprano aria from an opera by each......)
Interesting "fun facts" might include: did the two ever meet? Where did they live, did they study with the same teacher? Were they both performers as well as composers? Did each have a patron?
Music Selection parameters
Column A Classic era composers are limited to the big three we have covered already this term:
Franz Joseph Haydn b. 1732
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart b. 1756
Ludwig van Beethoven b. 1770
Choose just one movement of one piece by one of these "big three" composers.
Column B classic era composers are listed at the page linked below. Scroll to find the birth years you need for a match.

Class, this is the final forum of the course. From our readings fro.docx
Class, this is the final forum of the course. From our readings from Week 8, we see that field of emergency management including the Incident Command System and NIMS have changed drastically over the years. The NIC has been developed in order to make sure that our incident management systems are as efficient and effective as possible. Going forward, there will inevitably be changes that will positively impact our emergency response and disaster planning organizations. In the past 50 years we have seen significant changes to the field of emergency management in our country. Some of the notable turning points in the field of emergnecy management include the following:
1974 - Disaster Relief Act of 1974
- The Disaster Relief Act of 1974 authorized the president of the United States to implement a program of disaster preparedness and relief aid that would enable use of all federal agencies. The Disaster Relief Act of 1974 states that any federal assistance offered is dependent upon the president authorizing such aid in the form of issuing a declaration.
1979
- FEMA is created.
1988 - Stafford Act
- Part of the reason for the change from the Disaster Relief Act of 1974 to the Stafford Act was the fact that the federal government was concerned about expanding disaster declarations beyond only natural disasters, and this included other types of incidents such as technological disasters (Three Mile Island in PA) and other instances outside the scope of natural disasters. Terrorism is not yet included. Federal assistance could be requested by the state on behalf of either the local government or state government. However, the request from the state must come from the governor.
2002 - Homeland Security Act
- The September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks resulted in the creation of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). FEMA is now included under the umbrella of DHS.
HSPD-5 established the National Incident Management System (NIMS) and the National Response Plan (NRP).
HSPD-8 established policies to strengthen the preparedness of the United States to prevent and respond to threatened or actual domestic terrorist attacks, major disasters, and other emergencies by requiring a national domestic all-hazards preparedness goal, establishing mechanisms for improved delivery of Federal preparedness assistance to State and local governments, and outlining actions to strengthen preparedness capabilities of Federal, State, and local entities.
2005 - Post-Katrina Emergency Management Reform Act
- the performance of FEMA and other emergency management agencies during Hurricane Katrina results in the Post-Katrina Emergency Management Reform Act (
PKEMRA
) of 2006. The act enhances FEMA's responsibilities and its autonomy within DHS. Significant and meaningful changes to FEMA were made to increase preparedness levels of the general population and aid in mitigation and resilience efforts. These changes also included incident managem.

Writing Ethnographic Fieldnotes – Robert M. Emerson
University of Chicago Press
Published 1995
Chapter 1: Fieldnotes in Ethnographic Research
Ethnographic field research involves the study of groups and people as they go about their everyday lives. Carrying
out such research involves two distinct activities. First, the ethnographer enters into a social setting and gets to
know the people involved in it; usually, the setting is not previously known in an intimate way. The ethnographer
participates in the daily routines of this setting, develops ongoing relations with the people in it, and observes all the
while what is going on. Indeed, the term "participant-observation" is often used to characterize this basic research
approach. But, second, the ethnographer writes down in regular, systematic ways what she observes and learns
while participating in the daily rounds of life of others. Thus the researcher creates an accumulating written record of
these observations and experiences. These two interconnected activities comprise the core of ethnographic
research: Firsthand participation in some initially unfamiliar social world and the production of written accounts of
that world by drawing upon such participation. In the following sections we examine in detail each of these activities
and then trace out their implications for writing fieldnotes.
ETHNOGRAPHIC PARTICIPATION
Ethnographers are committed to going out and getting close to the activities and everyday experiences of other
people. "Getting close" minimally requires physical and social pr.

Module Four
Chapter 4 Overview
In addition to the personnel services and support services potion of the budget is the capital outlay portion. It is this portion that monies for needed “equipment” is found within the budget. Some states allow for “construction projects” to also be included in this section of the budget, however Florida is not one of those states. The laws vary from state to state as to the definition of “equipment” within public organizations. Equipment purchased under this portion of the budget is almost always placed on the agency’s inventory and assigned a property control number. Obviously this is the means whereby equipment is both managed and accounted for in public agencies. When equipment is no longer needed by the agency, it is either sold at public auction, or disposed of in accordance with law. Strict records should always be kept of all equipment under the control of any public agency.
Chapter Four Lecture
In this module we will be examining the Capital Outlay portion of the budget. Monies allocated for this portion of the budget vary based upon the agency or government entity preparing the budget. The power point provided for this module discusses monies allocated to this portion of the budget may include such things as construction costs for new buildings. Other areas of the power point discuss monies allocated to this portion of the budget are allocated for equipment.
The difference can be found in the government entity preparing the budget. Let’s take a look at the local level of government, county or city. In the United States counties and cities have a governing body called the Council or Commission. This governing body is known as the legislative branch of that local government. Local agencies, such as the police department, sheriff’s office, building and zoning, etc. do not place it their budgets under the capital expenditure portion construction for new buildings or purchasing land. This would be done at the county or city level within the ove.

Classic Combo PlateDirectionsBefore there were all th.docx
Classic Combo Plate
Directions:
Before there were all the cart options, I remember going to the cafes near campus that offered combo menus. For a reasonable price, the menu usually had two lists of items and you would choose one from column A and one from column B for a very satisfying lunch.
For our musical version of the combo plate, you are asked to select one composer from column A (just the big three) and one composer from column B (a very long Wikipedia page with composers listed by birth year)
Both composers must share the same, or nearly the same, birth year
. The latitude for this is no more than + or - 10 years. We want to place both of them solidly within the Classic era and also within roughly the same generation.
Find one movement of a piece of music by each. that is a total of two tracks for this assignment. Include a link to that specific movement of each piece so that readers of your post can quickly click it to listen. You may use Naxos (a bit easier to pinpoint the exact movement in a longer piece) or YouTube but you are responsible for providing the accurate url. Please be careful in YouTube that your music link takes your reader to exactly the movement you write about.
For each of these two tracks provides clearly the full title of each piece and the exact movement title or number if these are from multi-movement works.
Provide background information on both of the movements of music you have selected and some bio information on the lesser known composer from "column B". Include musical observations
based on your own listening
as you compare the two tracks. You may find it easier to make a targeted comparison if you select works of a similar genre (for instance, the first movement of a piano sonata by each composer, or the slow movement of a symphony by each, or the minuet movement of a string quartet, or a soprano aria from an opera by each......)
Interesting "fun facts" might include: did the two ever meet? Where did they live, did they study with the same teacher? Were they both performers as well as composers? Did each have a patron?
Music Selection parameters
Column A Classic era composers are limited to the big three we have covered already this term:
Franz Joseph Haydn b. 1732
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart b. 1756
Ludwig van Beethoven b. 1770
Choose just one movement of one piece by one of these "big three" composers.
Column B classic era composers are listed at the page linked below. Scroll to find the birth years you need for a match.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Classical-era_composers#Middle_Classical_era_composers_(born_1730%E2%80%931750)

Class, this is the final forum of the course. From our readings fro.docx
Class, this is the final forum of the course. From our readings from Week 8, we see that field of emergency management including the Incident Command System and NIMS have changed drastically over the years. The NIC has been developed in order to make sure that our incident management systems are as efficient and effective as possible. Going forward, there will inevitably be changes that will positively impact our emergency response and disaster planning organizations. In the past 50 years we have seen significant changes to the field of emergency management in our country. Some of the notable turning points in the field of emergnecy management include the following:
1974 - Disaster Relief Act of 1974
- The Disaster Relief Act of 1974 authorized the president of the United States to implement a program of disaster preparedness and relief aid that would enable use of all federal agencies. The Disaster Relief Act of 1974 states that any federal assistance offered is dependent upon the president authorizing such aid in the form of issuing a declaration.
1979
- FEMA is created.
1988 - Stafford Act
- Part of the reason for the change from the Disaster Relief Act of 1974 to the Stafford Act was the fact that the federal government was concerned about expanding disaster declarations beyond only natural disasters, and this included other types of incidents such as technological disasters (Three Mile Island in PA) and other instances outside the scope of natural disasters. Terrorism is not yet included. Federal assistance could be requested by the state on behalf of either the local government or state government. However, the request from the state must come from the governor.
2002 - Homeland Security Act
- The September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks resulted in the creation of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). FEMA is now included under the umbrella of DHS.
HSPD-5 established the National Incident Management System (NIMS) and the National Response Plan (NRP).
HSPD-8 established policies to strengthen the preparedness of the United States to prevent and respond to threatened or actual domestic terrorist attacks, major disasters, and other emergencies by requiring a national domestic all-hazards preparedness goal, establishing mechanisms for improved delivery of Federal preparedness assistance to State and local governments, and outlining actions to strengthen preparedness capabilities of Federal, State, and local entities.
2005 - Post-Katrina Emergency Management Reform Act
- the performance of FEMA and other emergency management agencies during Hurricane Katrina results in the Post-Katrina Emergency Management Reform Act (
PKEMRA
) of 2006. The act enhances FEMA's responsibilities and its autonomy within DHS. Significant and meaningful changes to FEMA were made to increase preparedness levels of the general population and aid in mitigation and resilience efforts. These changes also included incident managem.

Writing Ethnographic Fieldnotes – Robert M. Emerson
University of Chicago Press
Published 1995
Chapter 1: Fieldnotes in Ethnographic Research
Ethnographic field research involves the study of groups and people as they go about their everyday lives. Carrying
out such research involves two distinct activities. First, the ethnographer enters into a social setting and gets to
know the people involved in it; usually, the setting is not previously known in an intimate way. The ethnographer
participates in the daily routines of this setting, develops ongoing relations with the people in it, and observes all the
while what is going on. Indeed, the term "participant-observation" is often used to characterize this basic research
approach. But, second, the ethnographer writes down in regular, systematic ways what she observes and learns
while participating in the daily rounds of life of others. Thus the researcher creates an accumulating written record of
these observations and experiences. These two interconnected activities comprise the core of ethnographic
research: Firsthand participation in some initially unfamiliar social world and the production of written accounts of
that world by drawing upon such participation. In the following sections we examine in detail each of these activities
and then trace out their implications for writing fieldnotes.
ETHNOGRAPHIC PARTICIPATION
Ethnographers are committed to going out and getting close to the activities and everyday experiences of other
people. "Getting close" minimally requires physical and social pr.

Module Four
Chapter 4 Overview
In addition to the personnel services and support services potion of the budget is the capital outlay portion. It is this portion that monies for needed “equipment” is found within the budget. Some states allow for “construction projects” to also be included in this section of the budget, however Florida is not one of those states. The laws vary from state to state as to the definition of “equipment” within public organizations. Equipment purchased under this portion of the budget is almost always placed on the agency’s inventory and assigned a property control number. Obviously this is the means whereby equipment is both managed and accounted for in public agencies. When equipment is no longer needed by the agency, it is either sold at public auction, or disposed of in accordance with law. Strict records should always be kept of all equipment under the control of any public agency.
Chapter Four Lecture
In this module we will be examining the Capital Outlay portion of the budget. Monies allocated for this portion of the budget vary based upon the agency or government entity preparing the budget. The power point provided for this module discusses monies allocated to this portion of the budget may include such things as construction costs for new buildings. Other areas of the power point discuss monies allocated to this portion of the budget are allocated for equipment.
The difference can be found in the government entity preparing the budget. Let’s take a look at the local level of government, county or city. In the United States counties and cities have a governing body called the Council or Commission. This governing body is known as the legislative branch of that local government. Local agencies, such as the police department, sheriff’s office, building and zoning, etc. do not place it their budgets under the capital expenditure portion construction for new buildings or purchasing land. This would be done at the county or city level within the ove.
