Question
Frank is the receiving dock supervisor for Cabinet Co., a company that manufactures metal storage cabinets. His job is to supervise the inspection, and stocking of components and materials used in the manufacture of the cabinets as they are delivered; and to so notify the accounting department so invoices can be timely paid. On June 1, the company received a shipment of casters used in the manufacture of rolling cabinets. This new shipment would not be needed for three weeks as there were plenty of casters located on the assembly line. The storage facilities where the casters would normally be placed were under renovation, and there would be no space to store this latest shipment of casters until June 20. Frank decided to leave the unopened boxes of casters in a secure and covered corner of the receiving dock. He did, however, notify the accounting department that the casters had been received. The accounting department paid the $8,000.00 invoice in time to earn the discount if paid within ten days.
On June 20 Frank had his workers open the boxes of casters to inspect then and place them in the appropriate space in the storage facility. Upon inspection it was determined that nearly all of the casters were defective and unusable. This caused the company to default on several contracts for rolling cabinets as it ran out of casters before it could secure replacements for the defective ones. Cabinet Co. was able to replace the casters at a 15% increase in cost.

Question
Chapter 9:
How did the promotion of a national American System encourage westward expansion and the unification of state economies?
AssignmentSelect two of the scenarios in the Applications list .docx
Assignment:
Select two of the scenarios in the Applications list 12.2 (a.-ff.) at the end of Ch. 12 in The Art of Thinking.
Apply the following in a paper of 600 to 800 words for each scenario:
· Evaluate each argument, using the four-step process described on pp. 197-198, regarding soundness of reasoning (truth and validity).
· Explain your assessment, and add alternative argumentation where necessary.
Format your assignment according to appropriate course level APA guidelines.
Tools – 12.2 list
12.2. Check each of the following arguments to be sure that it contains no hidden premises and, if it is a complex argument, that all parts are expressed. Revise each, as necessary, to make the expression complete. Then evaluate the argument and decide whether it is sound. Explain your judgment.
a. Having great wealth is a worthy goal because it is difficult to attain and many famous people have pursued it.
b. Low grades on a college transcript are a handicap in the job market, so teachers who grade harshly are doing students a disservice.
c. The Bible can’t be relevant to today’s problems; it was written many centuries ago and is filled with archaic phrasing.
d. It is dishonest to pretend to have knowledge one does not have, so plagiarism is more virtue than vice.
e. The credit card habit promotes careless spending, particularly among young people. Therefore, credit card companies should not be permitted to issue credit cards to anyone under age 21.
f. No one who ever attended this college achieved distinction after graduation. Marvin attends this college. Therefore, Marvin will not achieve distinction after graduation.
g. Drug dealing should not be a crime because it does not directly harm others or force them to harm themselves.
h. A mature person is self-directing, so parents who make all their children’s decisions for them are doing their offspring a disservice.
STEPS IN EVALUATING AN ARGUMENT The following four steps are an efficient way to apply what you learned in this chapter—in other words, to evaluate your argument and overcome any errors in validity or truth that it may contain:
1. State your argument fully, as clearly as you can. Be sure to identify any hidden premises and, if the argument is complex, to express all parts of it.
2. Examine each part of your argument for errors affecting truth. (To be sure your examination is not perfunctory, play devil’s advocate and challenge the argument, asking pointed questions about it, taking nothing for granted.) Note any instances of either/or thinking, avoiding the issue, overgeneralizing, oversimplifying, double standard, shifting the burden of proof, or irrational appeal. In addition, check to be sure that the argument reflects the evidence found in your investigation (see Chapter 8) and is relevant to the pro and con arguments and scenarios you produced earlier (see Chapter 9).
3. Examine your argument for validity errors; that is, consider the reasoning that links conclusion ...

Module 6 – Virtual Field Trip and Earth Science Commemoration (due 4.18.20)
Goal: This is part of our American Geosciences Institute Annual International event that
began in 1998. The aim is to help you and your “kingdom” affiliations to better
understand and appreciate Earth sciences so as to encourage responsible stewardship
of our planet Earth.

ENG 510 Module Three Journal Guidelines and Rubric Overv.docx
ENG 510 Module Three Journal Guidelines and Rubric
Overview: Journal activities in this course are private between you and the instructor. A course journal is generally made up of many individual assignments.
The journals in this course will help to prepare you for the final project, the writer’s toolkit. In this final project, you will select creative writing styles and
techniques that you believe will be most effective in both expressing your goals as a writer and reaching the audiences you plan to target in your work.
Prompt: Whether it is a work of fiction, nonfiction, poetry, or drama (onstage or on screen), many writers approach storytelling by thinking about premise. No
matter where your story begins on the page, you should ask yourself the question of “Why now?” Essentially: What “new” situation is the character in that
makes a story worth telling? Typically, this is related to the concept of a moment of change or crisis. Your task in this journal is to compose a short story,
nonfiction essay (or part of one), poem, or excerpt from a screenplay depicting the moment a character’s “regular” life is changed or disrupted by a crisis. In a
follow-up explanation of two to four sentences, you should articulate why this crisis moment or change is particularly disruptive to your chosen character.
Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed:
I. Creative Work
A. Craft a short story, piece of nonfiction, poem, or screenplay excerpt in any subgenre that depicts the moment a character’s life changes or is
disrupted by a crisis.
II. Explanation
A. Write two to four sentences explaining the connection between the “crisis” moment of change and how or why it impacts the character you
have created.
Rubric
Guidelines for Submission: Submit the journal assignment as a Word document with double spacing, 12-point Times New Roman font, and one-inch margins.
Your journal assignment should be 10 to 50 lines for poetry, 500 to 1000 words for fiction/nonfiction, or 2 to 4 pages of screenwriting.

Please adhere to the following presentation format of your discussion in each Unit:
1. Introduction
(Maintain these headings for each section – it helps to inform the reader as to the various sections pertaining to the set of arguments/points that you are making in terms of your overall posting).
2. Topic Area A (you may label this topic as you see fit)
(In this area you will begin to present your argument and/or contention regarding the discussion query. Be aware of the underlying need to support your arguments/contentions with references from academic sources – you should, at the very least, utilize a reference from the text as well as an academic source --- Wikepedia is not considered an academic source).

Scott Lefor,
The release of information to the public – including through social media – can impact everything from a company’s image before the public to an individual’s image before a company. Jackson et al. (2020) note that while “strategic HR use of social media can build the employer’s reputation in the labor market and help HR professionals to reach candidates and current employees,” the use of social media can also “lead to the disclosure of trade secrets” or present a negative image of the company (p. 21). While companies place substantial hours and dollars into cultivating a favorable brand image before the public, a careless comment or complaint by an employee or contractor on social media can go viral and counteract such marketing efforts. In such cases, companies may find themselves forced to address such comments or complaints before the public in an attempt to save the brand image they have worked so hard to build.
In addition to impacting the image of a company, careless social media posts can also impact potential and current employees before the company. According to Melton and Miller (2015), while “most students appear to know that the content they post” on social media could be viewed negatively by “potential employers,” many students continue to do so (p. 678). Through social media, what would have been a careless comment if spoken aloud becomes a permanent statement viewable by countless individuals. Furthermore, comments and images referencing illegal activities or poor decision-making and communicating abilities become enshrined for potential and current employers to reference and base hiring and firing decisions upon.
It is worth noting that careless comments via social media can go beyond “negative,” and can sometimes involve trade secrets (as noted). While negative comments can cast a shadow over a company’s brand, comments revealing trade secrets can jeopardize long-term strategies, losing hard-won competitive edges. As referenced above, Melton and Miller (2015) assert that even though individuals know of such risks, many continue to post comments that can be understood to be “careless.”
In short, informa.

matter where your story begins on the page, you should ask yourself the question of “Why now?” Essentially: What “new” situation is the character in that
makes a story worth telling? Typically, this is related to the concept of a moment of change or crisis. Your task in this journal is to compose a short story,
nonfiction essay (or part of one), poem, or excerpt from a screenplay depicting the moment a character’s “regular” life is changed or disrupted by a crisis. In a
follow-up explanation of two to four sentences, you should articulate why this crisis moment or change is particularly disruptive to your chosen character.
Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed:
I. Creative Work
A. Craft a short story, piece of nonfiction, poem, or screenplay excerpt in any subgenre that depicts the moment a character’s life changes or is
disrupted by a crisis.
II. Explanation
A. Write two to four sentences explaining the connection between the “crisis” moment of change and how or why it impacts the character you
have created.

Scott Lefor,
The release of information to the public – including through social media – can impact everything from a company’s image before the public to an individual’s image before a company. Jackson et al. (2020) note that while “strategic HR use of social media can build the employer’s reputation in the labor market and help HR professionals to reach candidates and current employees,” the use of social media can also “lead to the disclosure of trade secrets” or present a negative image of the company (p. 21). While companies place substantial hours and dollars into cultivating a favorable brand image before the public, a careless comment or complaint by an employee or contractor on social media can go viral and counteract such marketing efforts. In such cases, companies may find themselves forced to address such comments or complaints before the public in an attempt to save the brand image they have worked so hard to build.
In addition to impacting the image of a company, careless social media posts can also impact potential and current employees before the company. According to Melton and Miller (2015), while “most students appear to know that the content they post” on social media could be viewed negatively by “potential employers,” many students continue to do so (p. 678). Through social media, what would have been a careless comment if spoken aloud becomes a permanent statement viewable by countless individuals. Furthermore, comments and images referencing illegal activities or poor decision-making and communicating abilities become enshrined for potential and current employers to reference and base hiring and firing decisions upon.
It is worth noting that careless comments via social media can go beyond “negative,” and can sometimes involve trade secrets (as noted). While negative comments can cast a shadow over a company’s brand, comments revealing trade secrets can jeopardize long-term strategies, losing hard-won competitive edges. As referenced above, Melton and Miller (2015) assert that even though individuals know of such risks, many continue to post comments that can be understood to be “careless.”
In short, informa.

Your initial post is due by midnight (1159 PM) on Thursday. You mus.docx
Your initial post is due by midnight (11:59 PM) on Thursday. You must write at least 400 words on Olive Senior's "The Pain Tree" and Ana Menéndez's "Her Mother's House" (in other words, at least 200 words for each story).
Instead of relying on plot summary you will support your interpretation by using and analyzing textual evidence. When you quote the story make sure you cite the page number: for instance, after the quotation put the page number in parenthesis (60). Avoid writing out "on page 60". When you quote a passage from the story make sure you introduce the context and that you are analyzing the meaning of what you quoted.
I encourage your own formulations, but address the following prompts (you can address them in any order and be sure to write at least three or more paragraphs):
In the short stories, you are going to encounter protagonists attempting to reconnect and remember (as in "putting together again") their Caribbean "home" spaces. How have their perceptions of their Caribbean homelands been shaped by their parents? What new perceptions do they gain and how does this transform their view of themselves and their history?
Victor Shklovsky argues that
ostranenie
("making strange" in Russian, and also translated as estrangement/defamiliarization) is the essence of literature. Where in the two stories do we encounter descriptions of estranged perception? Analyze the significance of these moments in the stories. Be sure to consult and cite Shkovsky's essay (especially his definition of
ostranenie
on page 80) to support your analysis.
For our annotation assignment, we learned how to notice patterns and overlooked meanings that helped us understand "Sonny's Blues" more fully. In "The Pain Tree" and "Her Mother's House" what patterns, connections or implied meanings did you notice structuring the stories?

Your HR project to develop a centralized model of deliveri.docx
Your HR project to develop a centralized model of delivering HR services has progressed through very critical stages of the project thus far. It is now time to present actionable, decision-making information to project leaders. This can be best accomplished when projects have been successfully managed, devoid of any major risks, and have been properly closed out and finalized.
Write a five to six (5-6) page paper in which you:
1. Explain what it means to successfully direct and manage project work and identify and discuss 3-4 strategies you might use to manage and sustain progress in your HR project. Be specific.
2. Identify and discuss a minimum of 3 strategies that could be used to address and resolve any risks within the control of the project. HINT: See Exhibit 14.5 in the textbook. Is any one of the strategies you selected more important than the others? Why?
Exhibit 14.5
RISK EVENT RESOLUTION STRATEGIES RISKS WITHIN PROJECT CONTROL
Understand and control WBS
Closely monitor and control activity progress
Closely manage all project changes
Document all change requests
Increase overtime to stay on schedule
Isolate problems and reschedule other activities
Research challenging issues early
RISKS PARTIALLY WITHIN PROJECT CONTROL
Establish limits to customer expectations
Build relationships by understanding project from client’s perspective
Use honesty in managing client expectations
Work with client to reprioritize cost, schedule, scope, and/or quality
Carefully escalate problems
Build team commitment and enthusiasm
RISKS OUTSIDE PROJECT CONTROL
Understand project context and environment
Actively monitor project environment
Understand willingness or reluctance of stakeholders to agree to changes
3. Describe 2-3 actions a project manager may take as they begin to close out the project. Be sure to justify using the actions you discuss.
4. Review Project Management in Action: The Power of Lessons Learned (pages 518-520 in the textbook) and provide an overview to the project team on the significance of the information. Be specific.
Pg 518-520 from book
PROJECT MANAGEMENT IN ACTION The Power of Lessons Learned Projects are discrete. They have a beginning and an end, at which time the project team disbands and moves on to other things. Despite the fact there has inevitably been significant tacit learning during the project, there is often only a limited capture of this into a sharable form for future reuse. Too often, as the project team dissolves, the learning fades into the memories of individuals minds. This makes it extremely difficult for others to benefit in the future from the insights learned. The usual excuses for this loss echoing through the corridors include just too hard, not enough time, team disbanded before we had the chance, and many more. The key error here is the incorrect assumption that learning during or from projects is an added bonus or a nice- to-have luxury. This is not the case in best.
Your Immersion Project for this course is essentially ethnographic r.docx
Your Immersion Project for this course is essentially ethnographic research. When you hear the words
ethnography
or
ethnographic research
, you may think of Margaret Mead or Franz Boas performing their research on cultures outside their own countries and living among their research subjects. Contemporary ethnographic research includes many other types of research scenarios, such as urban ethnography, neighborhood studies, and even microstudies of groups as small as families and individuals.
Ethnography
is any systematic study of people and cultures, usually conducted through observation, interviews, dialogues, participation, and historical research. Ethnography is used across disciplines as varied as anthropology, linguistics, sociology, advertising, and of course, human services and social work.
Your Immersion Project is just that—a study of a population group with the goal of better understanding the culture of the group. As you complete this project over the course of the semester, keep in mind one of the classical hallmarks of ethnographic research, pioneered by Boas: The beliefs and activities of humans have to be interpreted within their own cultural terms and not evaluated or judged through the cultural lens or terms of the observer or researcher. That is, human beliefs and behavior are culturally relative.
This week, you submit your Immersion Project Paper, one of two culminating parts of your Final Project for this course (along with your narrated PowerPoint, which is due in Week 10).
This 7- to 10-page paper will be a culmination of what you have experienced and explored throughout your work on this project. Since everyone’s experience will be different, the content of the paper will vary for each student; however, there are two sections that everyone should include:
Reflection on your Immersion Project:
Observation: What observational activity did you attend and what insight did it give you into your selected population?
Dialogue: How did you carry out your dialogue? Reflect on your experience and what insight it gave you into your selected population.
Reaction and Critical Analysis of your experience: This section should incorporate your reflections on your experiences, what you learned about the group, what you learned about yourself, and how your perceptions of this group have changed over time.
Several areas to address in this section:
Description of the group
Values/belief orientation
Social interactions (relationships within and between group members)
Religious/spiritual beliefs
Roles and expectations
Language and communication

Your have been contracted by HealthFirst Hospital Foundation (HHF), a charitable organization that provides services to community clinics in Atlanta, Georgia. Due to the organization's tremendous growth, it will need to computerize its operations. By doing so, HHF will be able to continue to meet the needs of both its benefactors and their employees. To this end, it has decided to move its operation to a more modern facility, where it will install a Local Area Network (LAN), and you will be managing the network implementation.
Department # of Employees
Administration 18
Human Resources 9
Accounting 13
Hospital Relations 12
Media Relations 4
Board Room 0
MIS 6
Total 62
Feasibility of the proposed change
HHF has examined its resources and budgetary constraints and determined that the installation of the LAN is feasible. There is a need to maintain as low a budget as possible.
Project Goals
The goals for the LAN project are as follows:
Fully functional networked system
Design a boardroom in which any department's information can be accessed and expressed
Illustrate the complete network and boardroom design
Maintain as low a price as possible
Current state
The new facility consists of 5 six-cubicle work areas and a separate MIS Department and a boardroom. (See the schematic below) Each work area also includes a closed office for the department head.
Deliverables
The deliverables are outlined below:
Begin compiling your project plan by choosing network servers, routers, and hubs. Describe your network model, topology, and selections with an explanation of your choices in a memo to Roger Chen, the chief information officer at HHF. Be sure to use terms and concepts that you have learned in this course.

ADD COMMENT AND INFORMATION TO THE TEXT BELOW
Many people are skeptical that climate change is even occurring on our beautiful planet. Some places worldwide feel its effects through increased temperatures, which is desirable to some. However, many other places, like the lovely island Fiji, are suffering from the effects of climate change. A Youtube video, “Climate Change Fiji,” posted by the user
UN Climate Change
describes the terrible circumstances faced by civilians who are forced to flee their homes due to rising sea levels (www#1). The loss of beach shores has resulted in a drastic decrease in marine life and land species who rely on coastal areas to survive. According to an article posted by author Sarah Taylor, to the site
EuroNews,
titled “Fiji prepares for ‘Climate Refugees’,” since the 19th century, sea levels have risen by around 25 centimeters worldwide (www#2). This rise in sea levels is attributed to the seemingly neverending rise of greenhouse gas emissions into our atmosphere. Another Youtube video, “Climate Change and Fiji,” posted by the user
COP23fj
emphasizes that Fiji is only one of many other Pacific Islands to be battling climate change (www#3). However, Fijians have taken the lead as the spokespeople for all Pacific Islanders to feel protected and not neglected.
These negative biological implications seem to occur in other places around the world, right? Wrong. Our very own city, San Diego, has been facing and will continue to tackle the negative effects of climate change. A typed interview conducted by the Environmental Health Coalition with Kayla Race exemplifies the many ways climate change appears in our communities, including prolonged heat waves, more intense wildfires, increased water costs, and disruptions on electricity (www#4). My family and I have personally been affected by the increased water (and energy) costs and the interruptions on our electricity. We don’t use our AC system and rely on fans for a cool down from our heatwave, yet are charged more than during the year and face blackouts quite often. A video posted in 2017 by the San Diego Union-Tribune, explains the differences between catastrophic and existential climate change (www#5). Catastrophic damage is survivable by humans, while existential climate change threatens the immediate safety of humans. Many still do not believe that these repercussions are created by car emissions into the air, affecting our atmospher.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic Imperative
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Within the paper, you are to address all sides of the issue, persuading me that you r knowledge is well-founded. That means that you must support your argument with evidence to en sure the validity of your claims, as well as address the counterclaims to show that you are well-informed about both sides. In-text citations and a bibliography or works cited page is required. You may eit her use Turabian (Chicago Manual
- 11. of Style) or APA format. Analyzing an Issue and Developing an Argument You should do some research on the subject matter chosen. Whi le you may already have a position on your topic and an idea about which side of the argument you wa nt to take, you need to ensure that your position is well supported. Supporting evidence will likely inclu de a combination of the following: 1. Factual Knowledge - Information that is verifiable and agreed upon by almost everyone. 2. Statistical Inferences - Interpretation of the facts. 3. Informed Opinion - Opinion developed through research and/ or expertise. 4. Personal Testimony - Personal experience related by a knowl edgeable party. The Paper 1. Introduction which introduces the topic, provides background , asserts your position on the issue. 2. Counter argument which summarizes the counterclaims and p rovides supporting information to those claims, yet refutes the claim by poking holes into the coun terclaim argument. 3. Your argument, which asserts the points to your claim, suppo rts your claim with evidence and gives your opinion. 4. Conclusion, which restates your thesis and major points.

It seems resolving those challenges requires first gaining an understanding of the issues. For example, did colonization destroy Africa and therefore to blame for what is seen in the 21st century, or can descendants of indigenous Af ricans be trusted to control the plethora of mineral resources of the contin ent, or is the solution the pouring-in of foreign dollars? These are the kin ds of questions that must be answered in order to even begin any conv ersation about resolution. Objectives After completing the learning activities for this topic, you will be able to:
- 15. Recognize many of the major challenges the Continent of Africa faces in the 21st century. Articulate opposing view points on various challenges facing Af rica.
