Social Media
The introduction of new technologies has significantly affected the social lives of many. These changes, which reflect how people use technology to interact, provide an example of trends that you might examine in your Final Research Paper. For this discussion, identify a significant change that has occurred in the way people communicate and share information, and reflect on the impact this change has had on individuals and society in general today (local and global).

Your initial post should be at least 250 words in length. Support your claims with examples from required material(s) and/or other scholarly resources, and properly cite any references.

Research the responsibility of a critical thinker in a contemporary society. You may choose any topic that deals with a contemporary social concern. Examine the principles of critical thought in relation to the chosen societal concern, and consider the importance of ethics, moral reasoning, a research-based process to search for truth, and the advantages of information technology in gathering data.
Potential social concerns include, but are not limited to health (e.g., obesity, smoking, or underage drinking), poverty (e.g., homelessness, basic needs, or transportation issues), family relations and dynamics (e.g., teen violence, physical abuse, depression, or suicide), social media (e.g., privacy), immigration (e.g., illegal), and education (e.g., plagiarism and/or cheating).

Question 2: Ethics, Values, and Social Responsibility (4 pages)
Instructions:
Ethics has been broadly defined as concerning certain issues or situations as being fair/unfair, right/wrong, or just/unjust according to the values adopted by a given culture or society. These values act as the acceptable standards developed and nurtured by society. As societies have developed and become more knowledge-oriented and socially alert, the need for social responsibility has increased. According to Davis and Blomstrom (1975), social responsibility is “the obligation of decision makers to take actions which protect and improve the welfare of society as a whole along with their own interests” (p. 39).
Throughout the course of your graduate studies, you have studied a variety of social problems and issues.
• Identify and discuss the top five (5) ethical issues confronting your field of study. My area of study is the LEGAL field.
• After you have briefly addressed each ethical issue, then rank them according to the literature in your field of study and/or by the importance placed upon them by the current media. As you rank them, please document your sources and justification for the ranking.
• Analyze each ethical issue according to its impact on the field, relevance to the current and future stakeholders in the field, and make any and all recommendations for improving such ethical issues, situations or dilemmas that impact your field of study. During this analysis, please consider the issue of social responsibility and how leaders in your field have addressed these ethical issues.

Ethics and the News
For
Week 4
, address the following in a three-page paper:
Identify a current event or contemporary social issue that involves ethical values. Your issue must be broad enough to sustain deep philosophical analysis and must have relevance to your community. A good choice of issue is one that (1) involves a decision that must be made that involves competing ethical values and considerations, (2) includes with various available options about which reasonable people can disagree, (3) concretely affects people’s lives, and (4) might be influenced by external and internal factors such as social norms, oppression, religious and other personal beliefs, socially-imposed constraints (such as laws), and physical limitations. Issues that only affect a few people or have only a minor impact are probably too narrow. Issues that you are not open to examining with an open mind will also not work well for this assignment. For some topic suggestions, you might want to browse the website of a reputable news organization or review some political blogs you follow.
Identify at least two news articles on your topic located using the South University Online Library and/or reputable news outlets. Make sure that the articles you choose present at least two different accounts of the values that should be considered in addressing the issue and include information and facts that you can use to develop your arguments and analysis. If you cannot locate two news articles on your topic, or if all of the articles share the same perspective, you should choose another topic. You should cite the two articles using correct APA citation.
Explain at least one ethical theory from your assigned readings. Cite support from the primary text selections in the chapter as well as authoritative secondary sources such as the course text and online lectures.
Analyze the issue using the theory of ethics. For example, you might discuss utilitarianism, deontology, virtue/care ethics, or existentialism.
Contrast this analysis with the approach a second theory would take. For instance, you might contrast deontology with utilitarianism by distinguishing duty from the principle of utility, or compare care ethics and existentialism by discussing the relative approaches to intersubjectivity.

DISCUSSION B 100 words 1 reference
Policy analysts are often faced with multiple advocacy choices when developing a policy recommendation. These choices are known as advocative claims. What are the characteristics of an advocative claim?
Advocative claims have four different main characteristics that are actionable, prospective, value laden, and ethically complex (Dunn, 2008). The claims below are described by Dunn as:
· Actionable.Advocative claims focus on actions that may be taken to resolve a policy problem. Although advocative claims require prior information about what will occur and what is valuable, they go beyond questions of "fact" and "value" and include arguments about what should be done to solve a problem (Dunn, 2008).
· Prospective.Advocative claims are prospective, because they occur prior to the time that actions are taken (ex ante). While policy-analytic procedures of monitoring and evaluation are retrospective, because they are applied after actions are taken (ex post), forecasting and recommendation are both applied prospectively (ex ante) (Dunn, 2008).
· Value laden.Advocative claims depend as much on "facts" as they do on "values." To claim that a particular policy alternative should be adopted requires not only that the action being recommended will have the predicted consequences; it also requires that the predicted consequences are valued by individuals, groups, or society as a whole (Dunn, 2008).
· Ethically complex.The values underlying advocative claims are ethically complex. A given value (e.g., health) may be regarded as both intrinsic and extrinsic. Intrinsic values are those that are valued as ends in themselves; extrinsic values are those that are valued because they will produce some other value. Health may be regarded as an end in itself and as a condition necessary for the attainment of other values, including security, freedom, and self-actualization. Similarly, democratic participation may be valued as an end in itself (intrinsic value) and a means to political stability (extrinsic value) (Dunn, 2008).
Each claim focuses on some sort of action or value that is perceived or occurred. The claims further describe the different choices that may occur when further developing policy recommendation.
What methods of advocative claims affect a public policy recommendation?
Public choice and the multiple legitimate stakeholders is one of the methods that affect public policy recommendations that I see more than others. With the numerous people that feel that their stake in the policy is the most important can cause the policy to be skewed towards whom benefits the most from the policy (Dunn, 2008). This can be problematic when it pertains to safety and people's fr ...

What Are the Grand challenges for Cultural Evolution?
An ad hoc steering committee initiated steps to form the Cultural Evolution Society (CES) in the summer of 2015. As part of the inaugural proceedings, a survey of CES members was conducted to identify a suite of "grand challenge" problems of broad scientific and social interest that can drive cutting-edge research and practice within the field of cultural evolutionary studies for future decades.
Over the course of several weeks, a total of 236 CES members from around the world completed an online questionnaire in which they could nominate up to ten such challenges, providing a brief description and rationale for each. Additionally, CES members were also asked to indicate their level of understanding and mode of training in core domains (cultural studies and evolutionary theory), how they see their current work fitting into the wider world of cultural evolutionary studies, and how they see themselves contributing to the grand challenges facing the society.
The responses to the initial grand challenges survey are summarized below.

Dont Blame the Eater By DAVID ZINCZENKO NOV. 23, 2002.docx
Don't Blame the Eater
By DAVID ZINCZENKO
NOV. 23, 2002
If ever there were a newspaper headline custom-made for Jay Leno's monologue, this
was it. Kids taking on McDonald's this week, suing the company for making them fat.
Isn't that like middle-aged men suing Porsche for making them get speeding tickets?
Whatever happened to personal responsibility?
I tend to sympathize with these portly fast-food patrons, though. Maybe that's because I
used to be one of them.
I grew up as a typical mid-1980's latchkey kid. My parents were split up, my dad off
trying to rebuild his life, my mom working long hours to make the monthly bills. Lunch
and dinner, for me, was a daily choice between McDonald's, Taco Bell, Kentucky Fried
Chicken or Pizza Hut. Then as now, these were the only available options for an
American kid to get an affordable meal. By age 15, I had packed 212 pounds of torpid
teenage tallow on my once lanky 5-foot-10 frame.
Then I got lucky. I went to college, joined the Navy Reserves and got involved with a
health magazine. I learned how to manage my diet. But most of the teenagers who live,
as I once did, on a fast-food diet won't turn their lives around: They've crossed under the
golden arches to a likely fate of lifetime obesity. And the problem isn't just theirs -- it's
all of ours.
Before 1994, diabetes in children was generally caused by a genetic disorder -- only
about 5 percent of childhood cases were obesity-related, or Type 2, diabetes. Today,
according to the National Institutes of Health, Type 2 diabetes accounts for at least 30
percent of all new childhood cases of diabetes in this country.
Not surprisingly, money spent to treat diabetes has skyrocketed, too. The Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention estimate that diabetes accounted for $2.6 billion in
health care costs in 1969. Today's number is an unbelievable $100 billion a year.
Shouldn't we know better than to eat two meals a day in fast-food restaurants? That's
one argument. But where, exactly, are consumers -- particularly teenagers -- supposed
to find alternatives? Drive down any thoroughfare in America, and I guarantee you'll see
one of our country's more than 13,000 McDonald's restaurants. Now, drive back up the
block and try to find someplace to buy a grapefruit.
Complicating the lack of alternatives is the lack of information about what, exactly, we're
consuming. There are no calorie information charts on fast-food packaging, the way
there are on grocery items. Advertisements don't carry warning labels the way tobacco
ads do. Prepared foods aren't covered under Food and Drug Administration labeling
laws. Some fast-food purveyors will provide calorie information on request, but even
that can be hard to understand.
For example, one company's Web site lists its chicken salad as containing 150 calories;
the almonds and noodles that come with it (an additional 190 calories) are listed
separately. Add a serving of t.

Don Marquis, in Why Abortion is Immoral,” champions an account of t.docx
Marquis argues against the "desire account" of why killing is wrong, which claims it is wrong because it frustrates the desires of the victim. Marquis raises a problem that this account allows killing people with no desires, like those in reversible comas. Tooley tentatively responds that while those in comas have no current desires, they had past desires and will likely have future desires, so killing them still frustrates a continuous stream of desires.

Ethics and the News
For
Week 4
, address the following in a three-page paper:
Identify a current event or contemporary social issue that involves ethical values. Your issue must be broad enough to sustain deep philosophical analysis and must have relevance to your community. A good choice of issue is one that (1) involves a decision that must be made that involves competing ethical values and considerations, (2) includes with various available options about which reasonable people can disagree, (3) concretely affects people’s lives, and (4) might be influenced by external and internal factors such as social norms, oppression, religious and other personal beliefs, socially-imposed constraints (such as laws), and physical limitations. Issues that only affect a few people or have only a minor impact are probably too narrow. Issues that you are not open to examining with an open mind will also not work well for this assignment. For some topic suggestions, you might want to browse the website of a reputable news organization or review some political blogs you follow.
Identify at least two news articles on your topic located using the South University Online Library and/or reputable news outlets. Make sure that the articles you choose present at least two different accounts of the values that should be considered in addressing the issue and include information and facts that you can use to develop your arguments and analysis. If you cannot locate two news articles on your topic, or if all of the articles share the same perspective, you should choose another topic. You should cite the two articles using correct APA citation.
Explain at least one ethical theory from your assigned readings. Cite support from the primary text selections in the chapter as well as authoritative secondary sources such as the course text and online lectures.
Analyze the issue using the theory of ethics. For example, you might discuss utilitarianism, deontology, virtue/care ethics, or existentialism.
Contrast this analysis with the approach a second theory would take. For instance, you might contrast deontology with utilitarianism by distinguishing duty from the principle of utility, or compare care ethics and existentialism by discussing the relative approaches to intersubjectivity.

DISCUSSION B 100 words 1 reference
Policy analysts are often faced with multiple advocacy choices when developing a policy recommendation. These choices are known as advocative claims. What are the characteristics of an advocative claim?
Advocative claims have four different main characteristics that are actionable, prospective, value laden, and ethically complex (Dunn, 2008). The claims below are described by Dunn as:
· Actionable.Advocative claims focus on actions that may be taken to resolve a policy problem. Although advocative claims require prior information about what will occur and what is valuable, they go beyond questions of "fact" and "value" and include arguments about what should be done to solve a problem (Dunn, 2008).
· Prospective.Advocative claims are prospective, because they occur prior to the time that actions are taken (ex ante). While policy-analytic procedures of monitoring and evaluation are retrospective, because they are applied after actions are taken (ex post), forecasting and recommendation are both applied prospectively (ex ante) (Dunn, 2008).
· Value laden.Advocative claims depend as much on "facts" as they do on "values." To claim that a particular policy alternative should be adopted requires not only that the action being recommended will have the predicted consequences; it also requires that the predicted consequences are valued by individuals, groups, or society as a whole (Dunn, 2008).
· Ethically complex.The values underlying advocative claims are ethically complex. A given value (e.g., health) may be regarded as both intrinsic and extrinsic. Intrinsic values are those that are valued as ends in themselves; extrinsic values are those that are valued because they will produce some other value. Health may be regarded as an end in itself and as a condition necessary for the attainment of other values, including security, freedom, and self-actualization. Similarly, democratic participation may be valued as an end in itself (intrinsic value) and a means to political stability (extrinsic value) (Dunn, 2008).
Each claim focuses on some sort of action or value that is perceived or occurred. The claims further describe the different choices that may occur when further developing policy recommendation.
What methods of advocative claims affect a public policy recommendation?
Public choice and the multiple legitimate stakeholders is one of the methods that affect public policy recommendations that I see more than others. With the numerous people that feel that their stake in the policy is the most important can cause the policy to be skewed towards whom benefits the most from the policy (Dunn, 2008). This can be problematic when it pertains to safety and people's fr ...

What Are the Grand challenges for Cultural Evolution?
An ad hoc steering committee initiated steps to form the Cultural Evolution Society (CES) in the summer of 2015. As part of the inaugural proceedings, a survey of CES members was conducted to identify a suite of "grand challenge" problems of broad scientific and social interest that can drive cutting-edge research and practice within the field of cultural evolutionary studies for future decades.
Over the course of several weeks, a total of 236 CES members from around the world completed an online questionnaire in which they could nominate up to ten such challenges, providing a brief description and rationale for each. Additionally, CES members were also asked to indicate their level of understanding and mode of training in core domains (cultural studies and evolutionary theory), how they see their current work fitting into the wider world of cultural evolutionary studies, and how they see themselves contributing to the grand challenges facing the society.
The responses to the initial grand challenges survey are summarized below.

Dont Blame the Eater By DAVID ZINCZENKO NOV. 23, 2002.docx
Don't Blame the Eater
By DAVID ZINCZENKO
NOV. 23, 2002
If ever there were a newspaper headline custom-made for Jay Leno's monologue, this
was it. Kids taking on McDonald's this week, suing the company for making them fat.
Isn't that like middle-aged men suing Porsche for making them get speeding tickets?
Whatever happened to personal responsibility?
I tend to sympathize with these portly fast-food patrons, though. Maybe that's because I
used to be one of them.
I grew up as a typical mid-1980's latchkey kid. My parents were split up, my dad off
trying to rebuild his life, my mom working long hours to make the monthly bills. Lunch
and dinner, for me, was a daily choice between McDonald's, Taco Bell, Kentucky Fried
Chicken or Pizza Hut. Then as now, these were the only available options for an
American kid to get an affordable meal. By age 15, I had packed 212 pounds of torpid
teenage tallow on my once lanky 5-foot-10 frame.
Then I got lucky. I went to college, joined the Navy Reserves and got involved with a
health magazine. I learned how to manage my diet. But most of the teenagers who live,
as I once did, on a fast-food diet won't turn their lives around: They've crossed under the
golden arches to a likely fate of lifetime obesity. And the problem isn't just theirs -- it's
all of ours.
Before 1994, diabetes in children was generally caused by a genetic disorder -- only
about 5 percent of childhood cases were obesity-related, or Type 2, diabetes. Today,
according to the National Institutes of Health, Type 2 diabetes accounts for at least 30
percent of all new childhood cases of diabetes in this country.
Not surprisingly, money spent to treat diabetes has skyrocketed, too. The Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention estimate that diabetes accounted for $2.6 billion in
health care costs in 1969. Today's number is an unbelievable $100 billion a year.
Shouldn't we know better than to eat two meals a day in fast-food restaurants? That's
one argument. But where, exactly, are consumers -- particularly teenagers -- supposed
to find alternatives? Drive down any thoroughfare in America, and I guarantee you'll see
one of our country's more than 13,000 McDonald's restaurants. Now, drive back up the
block and try to find someplace to buy a grapefruit.
Complicating the lack of alternatives is the lack of information about what, exactly, we're
consuming. There are no calorie information charts on fast-food packaging, the way
there are on grocery items. Advertisements don't carry warning labels the way tobacco
ads do. Prepared foods aren't covered under Food and Drug Administration labeling
laws. Some fast-food purveyors will provide calorie information on request, but even
that can be hard to understand.
For example, one company's Web site lists its chicken salad as containing 150 calories;
the almonds and noodles that come with it (an additional 190 calories) are listed
separately. Add a serving of t.

Don Marquis, in Why Abortion is Immoral,” champions an account of t.docx
Marquis argues against the "desire account" of why killing is wrong, which claims it is wrong because it frustrates the desires of the victim. Marquis raises a problem that this account allows killing people with no desires, like those in reversible comas. Tooley tentatively responds that while those in comas have no current desires, they had past desires and will likely have future desires, so killing them still frustrates a continuous stream of desires.

For the most part, the main points and thesis of each source are clearly stated in the summaries. For source 4, the main point about personality traits and willingness to commit crimes is clear. For source 3, the purpose of comparing seriousness ratings of white collar and street crimes is clear. One area for improvement is source 2 - the thesis could be more specific than just "investigating perception of white collar crime with a focus on gender." Specifying that it looks at how gender relates to perceptions of seriousness, motives,

Does Ex Parte Quirin justify the treatment of detainees at Guantanamo Bay? Can you see a distinction between Quirin and his fellow "enemy combatants" and those detained at Guantanamo Bay? How did the Second Circuit Court of Appeals distinguish them in Padilla v. Rumsfeld? Is the distinction significant enough to make a difference in the constitutional justification for the rights afforded those detained at Guantanamo Bay? Are there additional rights, besides trial by military tribunals, being denied detainees at Guantanamo Bay? What minimal rights did the Supreme Court give detainees in Hamdi v. Rumsfeld?

DOCUMENT 4
Dwight D. Eisenhower, “Farewell Address to the Nation” (1961)
Document Background: On January 17, 1961, President Dwight D. Eisenhower gave his farewell address to the nation. Over the previous two decades, the United States had undergone numerous significant changes, including World War II, the beginning of the Cold War, the Korean War, the emergence of nuclear weapons, a rapidly growing economy, and several substantial Civil Rights victories. Eisenhower, as a general and then as president, had been at the center of many of these. In his farewell address, Eisenhower focused on the Cold War with the Soviet Union and on the challenges facing the United States, including a warning about the growing power of the “military-industrial complex.”
Dwight D. Eisenhower:
I.
My fellow Americans:
Three days from now, after half a century in the service of our country, I shall lay down the responsibilities of office as, in traditional and solemn ceremony, the authority of the Presidency is vested in my successor.
This evening I come to you with a message of leave-taking and farewell, and to share a few final thoughts with you, my countrymen.
Like every other citizen, I wish the new President, and all who will labor with him, Godspeed. I pray that the coming years will be blessed with peace and prosperity for all.
Our people expect their President and the Congress to find essential agreement on issues of great moment, the wise resolution of which will better shape the future of the Nation.
My own relations with the Congress, which began on a remote and tenuous basis when, long ago, a member of the Senate appointed me to West Point, have since ranged to the intimate during the war and immediate post-war period, and, finally, to the mutually interdependent during these past eight years.
In this final relationship, the Congress and the Administration have, on most vital issues, cooperated well, to serve the national good rather than mere partisanship, and so have assured that the business of the Nation should go forward. So, my official relationship with the Congress ends in a feeling, on my part, of gratitude that we have been able to do so much together.
II.
We now stand ten years past the midpoint of a century that has witnessed four major wars among great nations. Three of these involved our own country. Despite these holocausts America is today the strongest, the most influential and most productive nation in the world. Understandably proud of this pre-eminence, we yet realize that America's leadership and prestige depend, not merely upon our unmatched material progress, riches and military strength, but on how we use our power in the interests of world peace and human betterment.
III.
Throughout America's adventure in free government, our basic purposes have been to keep the peace; to foster progress in human achievement, and to enhance liberty, dignity and integrity among people and among nations. To strive for less would be un.

IT Governance
Governance (in business) is all about making decisions that
Define expectations,
Grant authority, or
Ensure performance.
Empowerment and monitoring will help align behavior with business goals.
Empowerment: granting the right to make decisions.
Monitoring: evaluating performance.

A decision right is an important organizational design variable since it indicates who in the organization has the responsibility to initiate, supply
information for, approve, implement, and control various types of decisions.

IT Governance
IT governance focuses on how decision rights can be distributed differently to facilitate three possible modes of decision making:
centralized,
decentralized, or
hybrid
Organizational structure plays a major role.

Centralized vs. Decentralized Organizational Structures
Centralized – bring together all staff, hardware, software, data, and processing into a single location.
Decentralized – the components in the centralized structure are scattered in different locations to address local business needs.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
