Essay requires a thesis statement. Compare and contrast how the different cargo carrying capacity innovations and related transportation security policies have impacted the U.S. trucking and rail service industry from December 1980 until December 2011. Note: Compare means list factors such as how much one mode can be described in what it can carry, the distance moved, and many other similar factors. Two, contrast means to demonstrate with numbers or facts how that list of factors from one mode is better, or different, than the other mode under certain circumstances and geography. Three, discuss any kind of technology that affects one or both modes of carriers. Four, your answer covers all trucking and rail across the U.S., border to border. So, be creative, but include facts from referenced sources. The essay should be approximately 500 words with appropriate sources cited in APA style. .

3. Intermodal freight transport in the
United States
Lata Chatterjee and T.R. Lakshmanan
3.1 INTRODUCTION AND OVERVIEW
A variety of interrelated factors have converged in the last quarter of the
twentieth century to alter, in significant and pervasive ways, the nature and
scope of the US freight transportation enterprise – what is being trans-
ported, how it is transported, where from and where to (origins and destin-
ations of goods). There have been major changes in the volume and
composition of goods, which are moved over longer distances in both
domestic and global markets; freight is moved more frequently in smaller
shipments, and, on average, is of higher value than before (Figure 3.1).
Major freight routes (domestically and globally) are evolving, in short
order, in response to changes in the global economy and in the geography
of emerging production centres (US DOT 2000).
A major factor underlying this transformation of freight transport is rep-
resented by the changes in the scale, in the composition, and in the structure
of the American and global economies. The demand for transportation ser-
vices has grown in response to the generally brisk performance of the US
and global economies in this period. The US economy is becoming domin-
antly services-oriented, and shifting from mass manufacturing to high
value-added custom manufacturing. The resulting combination of increas-
ing information content and decreasing material intensity of goods changes
the character and value of goods being moved. Further, the US and other
Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) coun-
tries, in search of lower overall factor costs, have created global and regional
free trade regimes, and globally organized production systems and value
chains, which require speedy and timely movements of goods. These flows
of goods are coordinated across national and global transport nodes and
links in order to support the smooth functioning of the globalized economy.
Technological changes in the transport sector in the US have arrived in the
form of the Interstate Highway System, the jet aircraft, the container and
container ships, roll-on/roll-off vessels, and a variety of micro infrastructure

The Evolution of Intermodal TransportationThis paper.docx
The Evolution of Intermodal Transportation
This paper needs to talk about the Evolution of Intermodal Transportation since it was discovered first time and how it has been improving throughout the years. It must also talk about how the biggest countries have been adapting their infrastructure in order to have a smooth adaptation to new changes in the intermodal transport.
The research paper should be a minimum of six typed pages (not including the cover and reference page) and formatted in accordance with APA. Topics should be relevant to intermodal transportation.
The nature of a research paper is to prove or disprove a thesis or hypothesis, not simply produce a report or provide information on the topic. For example; a topic may be the impact of security on intermodal transportation. The associated thesis could be; actions taken to improve the security at ports have negatively impacted throughput, increasing costs and reducing the quality of operations. The research and body of the paper argues to prove the thesis statement.
A draft topic and thesis statement were due to the professor during week 2 (see Week 2 Announcement).

Disadvantages Of Rail Transportation
The document discusses the evolution of intermodal transportation services and how they now offer greater service breadth and reliability. It notes that intermodal services originally provided a slower alternative to trucking with unpredictable transit times between a limited set of origins and destinations. However, intermodal services have expanded in recent years to include a wider range of transportation and distribution options. This full suite of interdependent intermodal services can now play an important role in domestic and global supply chains by providing shippers with reliable transit between many origin-destination pairs.

In this SLP you will identify where the major transportation modes are used in the EESC from SLP3: rail, inland water, ocean steamer, and/or OTR.
There are five basic transportation modes: rail, inland water ways, ocean, over-the-road, and air. We will not be concerned about air transport in this SLP as it is the least used and most expensive in general supply chain transportation.
Review and read these resources on these three transportation modes: rail, inland water, and OTR. Ocean is not included in these readings since it is mainly used for importing and exporting. This will be covered in more detail in LOG502. But you are asked to identify where ocean transport is used, but not in detail.

1 Basic Assignment Description
For your ethical competency writing assignment, you will write analyze a disagreement between two authors/viewpoints
that we discussed this semester. I am calling the assignment a critical disagreement analysis. Below I will
provide a number of examples of disagreements between the authors we discuss this semester. Your
paper will have the following components
1. Hone the disagreement
• I want you to start by taking my general statement of disagreement and providing your own clear specifics
that focus on particular claims or passages. Here you are taking my starting point, but providing your
own framing of the disagreement that will provide focus for your paper.
• You will hone your statement of the disagreement in a way that sets things up for the next parts of the
paper.
• For example:
– In number 2 below, you will identify a specific critique of Rawls from either Kittay or Noddings.
You need to explain where the disagreement is and set the stage for a fruitful dialogue to follow in
the paper.
• This part of the paper should be focused. You should discuss the two views in a way that sets the stage
for your objection and response.
• In the opening part of the paper you need to preview what is ahead - you may only write this part late
in the writing process, but you need to provide a clear preview of where the rest of the paper goes.
2. Provide the best objection from one point of view to another
• I want you to do more than just state the two sides of the issue in this paper. I want you to bring the
authors into dialogue. You will do this by articulating an objection to one position from the point of
view of the other, then responding to the objection.
– You want your objection to be more than just restating a point where the authors diagree. Here’s
what I mean by just restating, as an example:
1
Kant believes that there are absolute rules that should be followed without regard to conse-
quences. The strongest utilitarian objection to this is that Kant disregards the importance
of how an action affects overall happiness.
– The above is an example of what not to do. That way of stating things won’t get you far because
it is just a re-stating of a key difference between Kant and utilitarianism.
• You should look for an objection that raises a new question for the other point of view, or points out
an unforeseen implication of the view. In some way it should move discussion forward. I am not
asking you to discover something that has never been said about these issues. I just want
you to deepen your understanding of the two views by raising a serious objection to one
position, then responding to it.
– In some way the objection should force you to think in new ways about the position objected to.
• In this section you should explain as clearly as you can how the objection presents a proble.

INTRODUCTION
Ethics in business is mainly concerned with the good or bad actions and behaviors that often take place in the world of business
Ethical challenges have often resulted from lack of a clear and distinctive description of norms that ought to be used
Business ethics hence help economists to think productively along moral dimensions on matters regarding policy problems
Ethics could be a complex aspect in business as it influences all aspect of business as it provides the most adequate action that ought to be taken. Ethics causes huge conflicts as morality may not be clearly definitive and situations in many cases greatly vary (Nuseir & Ghandour, 2019).

Ethics in intellectual property
Intellectual property rights is a socio-economic tool that create some form of monopoly for firms to charge a price for their innovations
For many innovative firms, it is a timely and expensive to come up with new innovations for the market yet other competitors in the market will attempt to copy new design of products launched.
Firms have however, taken advantage of intellectual property rights by asking for high prices for products
Intellectual property rights are a tool that protects innovators from losing their innovations to counter-feighting firms in the market. However many have leveraged this property rights to put high prices on their products to maximize their profits from their innovations (Sonderholm, 2018).
3
Policy statement on Ethics in intellectual property
To ensure easy and right access of new innovated products, it is important to come up with an ethical way to reduce exploitation by firms.
Firms can take up he differential pricing strategy that has in the past been articulated to be of great influence and guarantees the firm’s profitability
Through differentia; pricing, the protected innovation can be offered at different prices based on the socio-economic demographics of the area. A product can be offered at a cheaper price at a low-earning area while it is offered at different price at a different location (Sonderholm, 2018).

Corruption index
Corruption is seen as legal complication that is often manifested in the absence of controls over power
Corruption in business could come in many ways but it is always some grease payment paid to expedite decision or transactions
Connection are as well viewed as to have an effect on business processes as they have a negative connotation regardless of their informality.
In many business ventures, corruption has been indicated to grow over time and is often seen in terms of exchange of favors for the sake of expedition of certain process to take a shorter time without necessarily having to undergo the require stipulated process (Samuel, 2019).

Ethical Conduct of Research
power point from this document, 15 slides
Introduction
Depending on the context of the study, researchers often encounter ethical dilemmas that are associated with respect for privacy, establishment of honest and open interactions, and avoidance of misrepresentation. From an ethical standpoint, such challenging circumstances may surface if researchers are grappling with conflicting issues and have to choose between different methodological approaches in complex circumstances. In such circumstances, disagreements among different components including participants, researchers, researchers’ disciplines, the financing organization, and the society might be inevitable. Therefore, there are numerous ethical concerns that should be taken into account when undertaking studies that deal with human subjects. Understanding ethical principles can guide researchers to conduct studies that safeguard the wellbeing of human subjects.
Overview of the Research
In a research work titled
Resilience of People Living with HIV/AIDS in Indonesia: a Phenomenological Study
, Kumboyono et al. (2018) observe that HIV/ AIDS is among the most prevalent and expanding communicable diseases on the planet. The number of individuals who are diagnosed with HIV/AIDS continues to skyrocket every year in Indonesia and other parts of the world. According to Kumboyono et al. (2018), individuals who suffer from HIV/AIDS often plunge themselves into a series of crises, which indicate the challenges of living with the chronic pathological condition. As such, resilience is one distinct phenomenon that is common among persons living with the diseases Indonesia, a pattern that indicates the results of current health management and expectations of HIV/AIDS patients for better and improved health outcomes. In light of this concern, Kumboyono et al. (2018) undertook a study that sought to examine the mechanism of resilience in Indonesian people living with HIV/AIDS and the factors that influence their specific mechanisms.
Using qualitative phenomenological design, the researchers sampled a total of 27 people living with HIV/AIDS from a primary health care institution in Malang City, East Java, Indonesia. The participants were selected from different socioeconomic, gender, and sexual orientations. The researchers informed participants about the conduct and processes involved in the study, resulting in their consent to participate in the interview process. The findings of the study indicated that the diagnosis of HIV/AIDS reflects the onset of psychological and social distress. Moreover, Kumbomoyo et al. (2018) found that the spiritual response that follows diagnosis is a state that is characterized by crises. As a consequence, the coping strategies and understanding of life by HIV patients is a definite sign on resilience. Based on these findings, Kumbomoyo et al. (2018) infer that HIV/AIDS is a chronic infection that has the potential to induce the unique .

Ethical Approaches
An Overview of:
(1)Consequential,
(2) Nonconsequential, and
(3) Virtue Ethics Theories
What is Ethics?
Ethics is the study of those values that relate to our moral conduct,
including questions of good and evil, right and wrong, and moral responsibility.
Consequentialist Theoretical Approach:
-Consequentialist theories claim that the morality of an action depends only on its consequences.
-It only considers the result of actions and not principles or rules in determining morality.
1
Three (3) Types of Consequentialist Theories:
-Ethical Egoism argues that each person should act in his/her own self-interest.
-Act Utilitarianism argues that each person should act in a way that produces the greatest happiness
for everyone.
-Rule Utilitarianism argues that each person should follow rules that tend to produce the greatest
happiness for everyone.
Weaknesses of Consequentialist Theories
-Requires person to predict the future and all possible outcomes.
-Can easily be used to justify questionable actions (the ends justifies the means).
2
Nonconsequentialist Theoretical Approach:
Nonconsequentialist theories claim that the morality of an action depends on principles or other factors
that are not related to consequences.
Two (2) Types of Nonconsequentialist Theories:
-Divine command theory argues that we should obey the laws of God.
-Kant’s Categorical Imperative states that we should always act in a way that is based on reason, duty,
and would be considered ethical if everyone acted in the exact same way. Also, people should be
treated as an end and not as a means.
Weaknesses of Nonconsequentialist Theories: Self-Challenge Question:
Question: What might prove a problem in a country so diverse as the U.S. with regards to
Nonconsequentialist theories?

Virtue Ethics Theoretical Approach:
-Virtue ethics seeks to identify character traits of a moral person and develop those with the idea that the
virtuous person will act in a virtuous manner. It does not look to principles or consequences.
-Virtue ethics was developed among the ancient Greek philosophers such as Aristotle and the Chinese
teacher and philosopher Confucius.
-Virtue ethics enjoys modern support as an approach that avoids many of the problems with
Consequential and Nonconsequential ethical theories.
Weaknesses of Virtue Theory
-Difficulty in determining just which characteristics are virtues
-Justification for respecting a virtue usually brings one back to either consequences or principles.
-Difficulty in applying it to specific situations

Scenario: The air quality in a particular city Y is so polluted, people are getting physically ill and are on .
Ethical and Professional Issues in Group PracticeThose who seek .docx
Ethical and Professional Issues in Group Practice
Those who seek to be professional group leaders must be willing to examine both their ethical standards and their level of competence. Among the ethical issues treated in this chapter are the rights of group members, including informed consent and confidentiality; the psychological risks of groups; personal relationships with clients; socializing among members; the impact of the group leader’s values; addressing spiritual and religious values of group members; working effectively and ethically with diverse clients; and the uses and misuses of group techniques. In my opinion, a central ethical issue in group work pertains to the group leader’s competence. Special attention is given to ways of determining competence, professional training standards, and adjuncts to academic preparation of group counselors. Also highlighted are ethical issues involved in training group workers. The final section outlines issues of legal liability and malpractice.
As a responsible group practitioner, you are challenged to clarify your thinking about the ethical and professional issues discussed in this chapter. Although you are obligated to be familiar with, and bound by, the ethics codes of your professional organization, many of these codes offer only general guidelines. You will need to learn how to make ethical decisions in practical situations. The ethics codes provide a general framework from which to operate, but you must apply these principles to concrete cases. The Association for Specialists in Group Work’s (2008) “Best Practice Guidelines” is reproduced in the Student Manual that accompanies this textbook. You may want to refer to these guidelines often, especially as you study Chapters 1 through 5.
The Rights of Group Participants
My experience has taught me that those who enter groups are frequently unaware both of their basic rights as participants and of their responsibilities. As a group leader, you are responsible for helping prospective members understand what their rights and responsibilities are. This section offers a detailed discussion of these issues.
A Basic Right: Informed Consent
If basic information about the group is discussed at the initial session, the participants are likely to be far more cooperative and active. A leader who does this as a matter of policy demonstrates honesty and respect for group members and fosters the trust necessary for members to be open and active. Such a leader has obtained the informed consent of the participants.
Informed consent is a process that begins with presenting basic information about group treatment to potential group members to enable them to make better decisions about whether or not to enter and how to participate in a group (Fallon, 2006). Members have a right to receive basic information before joining a group, and they have a right to expect certain other information during the course of the group. Discussing informed consent is not a one-t.

Ethical (Moral) RelativismIn America, many are comfortable describ.docx
Ethical (Moral) Relativism
In America, many are comfortable describing ethics as follows: “Well, what’s right for me is right for me and what’s right for you is right for you. Let’s just agree to disagree.” This is an affirmation of what philosophers call
individual
or
subjective moral relativism
. In this understanding of relativism, morality is a matter of individual feelings and personal preference. In individual moral relativism, the determination of what is right and wrong in a situation varies according to the individual. Moral relativists do not believe in natural law or universal truths.
Cultural moral relativism
puts culture at the forefront of relative ethical decision-making. It says the individual must include the precepts of his or her culture as a prominent part of the relativistic moral action.
Lawrence
Kohlberg,
a prominent psychologist known for recognizing moral stages of development, takes it a step farther saying cultural relativists are persons stuck in the “
Conventional
Stage” of ethical development
.
In your paper, please define individual moral relativism and cultural moral relativism in detail, noting how they differ from each other, their strengths and weaknesses, and give your position on Kohlberg’s stance on ethical relativism.
What aspects of ethical relativism do you identify and agree with? What aspects do you disagree with? Give a personal example that illustrates your stance on ethical relativism, describing how you made a moral decision in an ethical dilemma. Include at least two references to support your thoughts.

Ethical and Human Rights Concerns in Global HealthChapter Fou.docx
Ethical and Human Rights Concerns in Global Health
Chapter Four
Chapter four: Ethical and human rights concerns in global health.
As with any area of health, global health is affected by the issues of ethics and right for sound health outcome. In this chapter we will explore ethical and human rights concerns, some of the central treaties and conversions related to human rights, some historically significant cases in human subject research and key principles for making critical decisions in health research.
1
Failure to respect human rights is often associated with harm to human health
Health research with human subjects puts people at risk for the sake of other people’s health
Health investments must be made in fair ways since resources are limited
The Importance of Ethical and Human Rights Issues in Global Health
Access to the health care is human right and failure to respect this right might causes harm for health. For example, the stigma associated with HIV, TB and leprosy makes it difficult for the patient to obtain necessary health care, it not only cause harm to individual health but as a whole community health even. For example, if a TB patient remains untreated by the health care workers, then that individual could be a source of infection for other people.
Health research with human subject in particular in low income countries where study participants may not have other option to obtain the medication might become a proxy of clinical trial for other people .Lastly, fair decision in health investment is critical because in low income countries where health resources are scare difficult decisions need to be made depending on the priority and severity of disease.
2
The Foundations for Health and Human Rights
Universal Declaration of Human Rights and other legally binding multilateral treaties
Governments are obliged to respect, protect, and fulfill the rights they state
International Bill of Human Rights is the cornerstone for human rights. This bill include couple of documents including the Universal declaration of human rights that was officially declared in 1948, that place obligation on Government to respect , protect, and fulfill the rights of the state.
3
Selected Human Rights
The Rights-Based Approach
Assess health policies, programs, and practices in terms of impact on human rights
Analyze and address the health impacts resulting from violations of human rights when considering ways to improve population health
Prioritize the fulfillment of human rights
In considering human right, first we are going to examine the issue of right based approach. Some global health advocates argue that this approach, which thinks that fulfillment of people’s human right is conducive to their health, should be followed in global health. This means we need to assess health policies, programs or practices in terms of its impact on human right and analyze the health impacts from the perspective of violation of human rights

Ethical & Legal Aspects in Nursing WK 14
Please answer the following Discussion Question. Please be certain to answer the four questions on this week DQ and to provide a well-developed and complete answer to receive credit.
Case Study, Chapter 23, Professional Identity and Image
Nursing care is frequently perceived by the public as simple and unskilled. Many male nurses live in fear of how their caring actions might be interpreted. Many nurses hold that stereotypes about the profession are true, just as the general public does. Public identity and image has been a struggle for nurses for a long time. The greater public clearly does not understand what professional nursing is all about, and the nursing profession has done a poor job of correcting long-standing, historically inaccurate stereotypes.
1. What are the common nursing stereotypes?
2. What was the role of the Center for Nursing Advocacy? Discuss the role of Truth about Nursing in addressing inaccurate or negative portrayals of nursing in the media and the process they use to raise public and professional awareness of the issues surrounding nursing public image?
3. What are some of the ways of changing nursing’s image in the public eye?
4. One of the most important strategies needed to change nursing’s image is to change the image of nursing in the mind of the image makers. What are some of the key ways for nurses to interact with the media?

ORDER
JOHN JARVEY, Magistrate Judge
This matter comes before the court pursuant to trial on the merits which commenced on January 23, 2006. The above-described parties have consented to jurisdiction before a United States Magistrate Judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(c). The court finds in favor of the plaintiff and awards compensatory damages in the amount of $3,800,000 and punitive damages in the amount of $7,600,000.
In this case, the plaintiff brings numerous theories of recovery against defendant Jerry Drizin arising out of the misappropriation of escrow funds that were to serve as security for financing for the construction of an ethanol plant in Manchester, Iowa. The plaintiff contends that defendant Drizin, in concert with others, knowingly converted funds from an escrow account that were not to have been spent on anything without the plaintiff's prior written permission. Defendant Drizin contends that his only client and only duty of loyalty was to a Nigerian citizen living in Munich who caused the funds to be sent to bank accounts controlled by Defendant Drizin. The court makes the following findings of fact and conclusions of law.
In 2000 in Manchester, Iowa, farmer and President of the local Co-op, Douglas Bishop, began meeting with representatives of the United States Department of Agriculture to explore the feasibility of building an ethanol plant in the Manchester area. The idea was to assist farmers in the area in getting more value for their crops. An ethanol plant produces ethanol and feed grain which can be sold at a profit exceeding that associated with the mere sale of grain.
A series of 40 local meetings culminated in a membership drive. The Plaintiff, Northeast Iowa Ethanol, L.L.C., was later formed in order to sell 2500 shares of stock in the L.L.C. to raise funds for the financing of the plant. The construction of the plant was expected to cost $21 Million. It would have a capacity for producing 15 million gallons of ethanol per year. Through the meetings, Mr. Bishop and others raised $2,365,000. The average investor purchased two shares.
The membership drive ended in September 2001. The original plan was to begin construction in the fall of 2001 and have the plant operating by the fall of 2002. However, the issue of financing for the plant was more problematic than plaintiff had anticipated. Traditional lenders (banks) demanded that the plaintiff raise forty percent of the construction costs. It was clear that the plaintiff could not raise $8 Million. Plaintiff's proposed marketing partner, Williams Ethanol Services, agreed to invest $1 Million in the project. The contractor anticipated to build the facility, North Central Construction from North Dakota,.

INTRODUCTION
Ethics in business is mainly concerned with the good or bad actions and behaviors that often take place in the world of business
Ethical challenges have often resulted from lack of a clear and distinctive description of norms that ought to be used
Business ethics hence help economists to think productively along moral dimensions on matters regarding policy problems
Ethics could be a complex aspect in business as it influences all aspect of business as it provides the most adequate action that ought to be taken. Ethics causes huge conflicts as morality may not be clearly definitive and situations in many cases greatly vary (Nuseir & Ghandour, 2019).

Ethics in intellectual property
Intellectual property rights is a socio-economic tool that create some form of monopoly for firms to charge a price for their innovations
For many innovative firms, it is a timely and expensive to come up with new innovations for the market yet other competitors in the market will attempt to copy new design of products launched.
Firms have however, taken advantage of intellectual property rights by asking for high prices for products
Intellectual property rights are a tool that protects innovators from losing their innovations to counter-feighting firms in the market. However many have leveraged this property rights to put high prices on their products to maximize their profits from their innovations (Sonderholm, 2018).

Policy statement on Ethics in intellectual property
To ensure easy and right access of new innovated products, it is important to come up with an ethical way to reduce exploitation by firms.
Firms can take up he differential pricing strategy that has in the past been articulated to be of great influence and guarantees the firm’s profitability
Through differentia; pricing, the protected innovation can be offered at different prices based on the socio-economic demographics of the area. A product can be offered at a cheaper price at a low-earning area while it is offered at different price at a different location (Sonderholm, 2018).

Ethical Conduct of Research

Introduction
Depending on the context of the study, researchers often encounter ethical dilemmas that are associated with respect for privacy, establishment of honest and open interactions, and avoidance of misrepresentation. From an ethical standpoint, such challenging circumstances may surface if researchers are grappling with conflicting issues and have to choose between different methodological approaches in complex circumstances. In such circumstances, disagreements among different components including participants, researchers, researchers’ disciplines, the financing organization, and the society might be inevitable. Therefore, there are numerous ethical concerns that should be taken into account when undertaking studies that deal with human subjects. Understanding ethical principles can guide researchers to conduct studies that safeguard the wellbeing of human subjects.
Overview of the Research
In a research work titled
Resilience of People Living with HIV/AIDS in Indonesia: a Phenomenological Study
, Kumboyono et al. (2018) observe that HIV/ AIDS is among the most prevalent and expanding communicable diseases on the planet. The number of individuals who are diagnosed with HIV/AIDS continues to skyrocket every year in Indonesia and other parts of the world. According to Kumboyono et al. (2018), individuals who suffer from HIV/AIDS often plunge themselves into a series of crises, which indicate the challenges of living with the chronic pathological condition. As such, resilience is one distinct phenomenon that is common among persons living with the diseases Indonesia, a pattern that indicates the results of current health management and expectations of HIV/AIDS patients for better and improved health outcomes. In light of this concern, Kumboyono et al. (2018) undertook a study that sought to examine the mechanism of resilience in Indonesian people living with HIV/AIDS and the factors that influence their specific mechanisms.
Using qualitative phenomenological design, the researchers sampled a total of 27 people living with HIV/AIDS from a primary health care institution in Malang City, East Java, Indonesia. The participants were selected from different socioeconomic, gender, and sexual orientations. The researchers informed participants about the conduct and processes involved in the study, resulting in their consent to participate in the interview process. The findings of the study indicated that the diagnosis of HIV/AIDS reflects the onset of psychological and social distress. Moreover, Kumbomoyo et al. (2018) found that the spiritual response that follows diagnosis is a state that is characterized by crises. As a consequence, the coping strategies and understanding of life by HIV patients is a definite sign on resilience. Based on these findings, Kumbomoyo et al. (2018) infer that HIV/AIDS is a chronic infection that has the potential to induce the unique .

Ethical Approaches An Overview of .docx
Ethical Approaches
An Overview of:
(1)Consequential,
(2) Nonconsequential, and
(3) Virtue Ethics Theories
What is Ethics?
Ethics is the study of those values that relate to our moral conduct,
including questions of good and evil, right and wrong, and moral responsibility.
Consequentialist Theoretical Approach:
-Consequentialist theories claim that the morality of an action depends only on its consequences.
-It only considers the result of actions and not principles or rules in determining morality.
1
Three (3) Types of Consequentialist Theories:
-Ethical Egoism argues that each person should act in his/her own self-interest.
-Act Utilitarianism argues that each person should act in a way that produces the greatest happiness
for everyone.
-Rule Utilitarianism argues that each person should follow rules that tend to produce the greatest
happiness for everyone.
Weaknesses of Consequentialist Theories
-Requires person to predict the future and all possible outcomes.
-Can easily be used to justify questionable actions (the ends justifies the means).
2
Nonconsequentialist Theoretical Approach:
Nonconsequentialist theories claim that the morality of an action depends on principles or other factors
that are not related to consequences.
Two (2) Types of Nonconsequentialist Theories:
-Divine command theory argues that we should obey the laws of God.
-Kant’s Categorical Imperative states that we should always act in a way that is based on reason, duty,
and would be considered ethical if everyone acted in the exact same way. Also, people should be
treated as an end and not as a means.
Weaknesses of Nonconsequentialist Theories: Self-Challenge Question:
Question: What might prove a problem in a country so diverse as the U.S. with regards to
Nonconsequentialist theories?
When you are ready check the expert’s response.

Virtue Ethics Theoretical Approach:
-Virtue ethics seeks to identify character traits of a moral person and develop those with the idea that the
virtuous person will act in a virtuous manner. It does not look to principles or consequences.
-Virtue ethics was developed among the ancient Greek philosophers such as Aristotle and the Chinese
teacher and philosopher Confucius.
-Virtue ethics enjoys modern support as an approach that avoids many of the problems with
Consequential and Nonconsequential ethical theories.
Weaknesses of Virtue Theory
-Difficulty in determining just which characteristics are virtues
-Justification for respecting a virtue usually brings one back to either consequences or principles.
-Difficulty in applying it to specific situations

Ethical and Professional Issues in Group PracticeThose who seek .docx
Ethical and Professional Issues in Group Practice
Those who seek to be professional group leaders must be willing to examine both their ethical standards and their level of competence. Among the ethical issues treated in this chapter are the rights of group members, including informed consent and confidentiality; the psychological risks of groups; personal relationships with clients; socializing among members; the impact of the group leader’s values; addressing spiritual and religious values of group members; working effectively and ethically with diverse clients; and the uses and misuses of group techniques. In my opinion, a central ethical issue in group work pertains to the group leader’s competence. Special attention is given to ways of determining competence, professional training standards, and adjuncts to academic preparation of group counselors. Also highlighted are ethical issues involved in training group workers. The final section outlines issues of legal liability and malpractice.
As a responsible group practitioner, you are challenged to clarify your thinking about the ethical and professional issues discussed in this chapter. Although you are obligated to be familiar with, and bound by, the ethics codes of your professional organization, many of these codes offer only general guidelines. You will need to learn how to make ethical decisions in practical situations. The ethics codes provide a general framework from which to operate, but you must apply these principles to concrete cases. The Association for Specialists in Group Work’s (2008) “Best Practice Guidelines” is reproduced in the Student Manual that accompanies this textbook. You may want to refer to these guidelines often, especially as you study Chapters 1 through 5.
The Rights of Group Participants
My experience has taught me that those who enter groups are frequently unaware both of their basic rights as participants and of their responsibilities. As a group leader, you are responsible for helping prospective members understand what their rights and responsibilities are. This section offers a detailed discussion of these issues.
A Basic Right: Informed Consent
If basic information about the group is discussed at the initial session, the participants are likely to be far more cooperative and active. A leader who does this as a matter of policy demonstrates honesty and respect for group members and fosters the trust necessary for members to be open and active. Such a leader has obtained the informed consent of the participants.
Informed consent is a process that begins with presenting basic information about group treatment to potential group members to enable them to make better decisions about whether or not to enter and how to participate in a group (Fallon, 2006). Members have a right to receive basic information before joining a group, and they have a right to expect certain other information during the course of the group. Discussing informed consent is not a one-t.

Ethical (Moral) RelativismIn America, many are comfortable describ.docx
Ethical (Moral) Relativism
In America, many are comfortable describing ethics as follows: “Well, what’s right for me is right for me and what’s right for you is right for you. Let’s just agree to disagree.” This is an affirmation of what philosophers call
individual
or
subjective moral relativism
. In this understanding of relativism, morality is a matter of individual feelings and personal preference. In individual moral relativism, the determination of what is right and wrong in a situation varies according to the individual. Moral relativists do not believe in natural law or universal truths.
Cultural moral relativism
puts culture at the forefront of relative ethical decision-making. It says the individual must include the precepts of his or her culture as a prominent part of the relativistic moral action.
Lawrence
Kohlberg,
a prominent psychologist known for recognizing moral stages of development, takes it a step farther saying cultural relativists are persons stuck in the “
Conventional
Stage” of ethical development
.
In your paper, please define individual moral relativism and cultural moral relativism in detail, noting how they differ from each other, their strengths and weaknesses, and give your position on Kohlberg’s stance on ethical relativism.
What aspects of ethical relativism do you identify and agree with? What aspects do you disagree with? Give a personal example that illustrates your stance on ethical relativism, describing how you made a moral decision in an ethical dilemma. Include at least two references to support your thoughts.

Ethical and Human Rights Concerns in Global Health
Chapter Four
Chapter four: Ethical and human rights concerns in global health.
As with any area of health, global health is affected by the issues of ethics and right for sound health outcome. In this chapter we will explore ethical and human rights concerns, some of the central treaties and conversions related to human rights, some historically significant cases in human subject research and key principles for making critical decisions in health research.
1
Failure to respect human rights is often associated with harm to human health
Health research with human subjects puts people at risk for the sake of other people’s health
Health investments must be made in fair ways since resources are limited
The Importance of Ethical and Human Rights Issues in Global Health
Access to the health care is human right and failure to respect this right might causes harm for health. For example, the stigma associated with HIV, TB and leprosy makes it difficult for the patient to obtain necessary health care, it not only cause harm to individual health but as a whole community health even. For example, if a TB patient remains untreated by the health care workers, then that individual could be a source of infection for other people.
Health research with human subject in particular in low income countries where study participants may not have other option to obtain the medication might become a proxy of clinical trial for other people .Lastly, fair decision in health investment is critical because in low income countries where health resources are scare difficult decisions need to be made depending on the priority and severity of disease.
2
The Foundations for Health and Human Rights
Universal Declaration of Human Rights and other legally binding multilateral treaties
Governments are obliged to respect, protect, and fulfill the rights they state
International Bill of Human Rights is the cornerstone for human rights. This bill include couple of documents including the Universal declaration of human rights that was officially declared in 1948, that place obligation on Government to respect , protect, and fulfill the rights of the state.
3
Selected Human Rights
The Rights-Based Approach
Assess health policies, programs, and practices in terms of impact on human rights
Analyze and address the health impacts resulting from violations of human rights when considering ways to improve population health
Prioritize the fulfillment of human rights
In considering human right, first we are going to examine the issue of right based approach. Some global health advocates argue that this approach, which thinks that fulfillment of people’s human right is conducive to their health, should be followed in global health. This means we need to assess health policies, programs or practices in terms of its impact on human right and analyze the health impacts from the perspective of violation of human rights

Ethical & Legal Aspects in Nursing WK 14
Please answer the following Discussion Question. Please be certain to answer the four questions on this week DQ and to provide a well-developed and complete answer to receive credit.
Case Study, Chapter 23, Professional Identity and Image
Nursing care is frequently perceived by the public as simple and unskilled. Many male nurses live in fear of how their caring actions might be interpreted. Many nurses hold that stereotypes about the profession are true, just as the general public does. Public identity and image has been a struggle for nurses for a long time. The greater public clearly does not understand what professional nursing is all about, and the nursing profession has done a poor job of correcting long-standing, historically inaccurate stereotypes.
1. What are the common nursing stereotypes?
2. What was the role of the Center for Nursing Advocacy? Discuss the role of Truth about Nursing in addressing inaccurate or negative portrayals of nursing in the media and the process they use to raise public and professional awareness of the issues surrounding nursing public image?
3. What are some of the ways of changing nursing’s image in the public eye?
4. One of the most important strategies needed to change nursing’s image is to change the image of nursing in the mind of the image makers. What are some of the key ways for nurses to interact with the media?

ORDER
JOHN JARVEY, Magistrate Judge
This matter comes before the court pursuant to trial on the merits which commenced on January 23, 2006. The above-described parties have consented to jurisdiction before a United States Magistrate Judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(c). The court finds in favor of the plaintiff and awards compensatory damages in the amount of $3,800,000 and punitive damages in the amount of $7,600,000.
In this case, the plaintiff brings numerous theories of recovery against defendant Jerry Drizin arising out of the misappropriation of escrow funds that were to serve as security for financing for the construction of an ethanol plant in Manchester, Iowa. The plaintiff contends that defendant Drizin, in concert with others, knowingly converted funds from an escrow account that were not to have been spent on anything without the plaintiff's prior written permission. Defendant Drizin contends that his only client and only duty of loyalty was to a Nigerian citizen living in Munich who caused the funds to be sent to bank accounts controlled by Defendant Drizin. The court makes the following findings of fact and conclusions of law.
In 2000 in Manchester, Iowa, farmer and President of the local Co-op, Douglas Bishop, began meeting with representatives of the United States Department of Agriculture to explore the feasibility of building an ethanol plant in the Manchester area. The idea was to assist farmers in the area in getting more value for their crops. An ethanol plant produces ethanol and feed grain which can be sold at a profit exceeding that associated with the mere sale of grain.
A series of 40 local meetings culminated in a membership drive. The Plaintiff, Northeast Iowa Ethanol, L.L.C., was later formed in order to sell 2500 shares of stock in the L.L.C. to raise funds for the financing of the plant. The construction of the plant was expected to cost $21 Million. It would have a capacity for producing 15 million gallons of ethanol per year. Through the meetings, Mr. Bishop and others raised $2,365,000. The average investor purchased two shares.
The membership drive ended in September 2001. The original plan was to begin construction in the fall of 2001 and have the plant operating by the fall of 2002. However, the issue of financing for the plant was more problematic than plaintiff had anticipated. Traditional lenders (banks) demanded that the plaintiff raise forty percent of the construction costs. It was clear that the plaintiff could not raise $8 Million. Plaintiff's proposed marketing partner, Williams Ethanol Services, agreed to invest $1 Million in the project. The contractor anticipated to build the facility, North Central Construction from North Dakota,.

How to Manage Reception Report in Odoo 17
A business may deal with both sales and purchases occasionally. They buy things from vendors and then sell them to their customers. Such dealings can be confusing at times.

Essay requires a thesis statement.Compare and contrast how the.docx
- 1. Essay requires a thesis statement. Compare and contrast how the different cargo carrying capacity innovations and related transportation security policies have impacted the U.S. trucking and rail service industry from December 1980 until December 2011. Note: Compare means list factors such as how much one mode can be described in what it can carry, the distance moved, and many other similar factors. Two, contrast means to demonstrate with numbers or facts how that list of factors from one mode is better, or different, than the other mode under certain circumstances and geography. Three, discuss any kind of technology that affects one or both modes of carriers. Four, your answer covers all trucking and rail across the U.S., border to border. So, be creative, but include facts from referenced sources. The essay should be approximately 500 words with appropriate sources cited in APA style.
