USA, The Land of Unlimited Possibilities...
An argument for the return of our humanity

Journey with me into a land of possibilities: imagine, if you will, that you are in bad condition, really bad condition, due to no fault of your own: a life or death situation. You happened to have been in the wrong place at the wrong time; a place you actually didn’t have any say about being at in the first place. You are bleeding, mangled, in unspeakable pain, perhaps even lost a limb or two. Fortuitous for you, you are in America! You are in the hands of an educated, legally acknowledged medical provider that has the knowledge, ability, and has sworn to provide medical care to all. Presumptively, this person has the skills to save your life. But, they don’t. You are just left there: cold, naked, and bleeding; you are left there to die. You have been “deemed unviable” and therefore they are not required to administer health care – let alone any life-saving medical care (Smith).
Not in the USA, you may say; that’s not legal under our noble constitution! Our agencies of humanity preach respect for all life; our progressive, understanding, “all lives matter” government would not allow such a thing. That simply does not happen in one of the most advanced medical systems in the world! Think again.
On February 25, 2019, the United States Senate voted “to block consideration of a measure” that would enable legal charges to be brought against any medical professional that does nothing to help a child that was born alive after a failed abortion (DeBonis & Sonmez, 2019). This is the U. S. A.; this is the “land of unlimited possibilities” where brand new babies are abandoned to die (H., n.d.). The bill, S.311 - Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act presented by Senator Ben Sasse, did not receive the required “60 votes to proceed” (DeBonis & Sonmez, 2019; 116th Congress, 2019). The bill reads as follows: “Any infant born alive after an abortion or within a hospital, clinic, or other facility has the same claim to the protection of the law that would arise for any newborn, or for any person who comes to a hospital, clinic, or other facility for screening and treatment or otherwise becomes a patient within its care” (116th Congress, 2019). This bill outlined the “requirements for health care practitioners,” the expectation of “reporting of violations,” and the possible penalties that violators could face (116th Congress, 2019). If one examines the social contract that is the constitutional rights given citizens of the United States to life, the philosophical and psychological necessities to maintain human dignity and what it means to be human, and the natural rights that humanity expects humans to give other humans, then one will come to the conclusion that the bill, S.311 - Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act nee.

Human Rights /
Humans as Political Beings
Lecture 2.4
Natural Rights, Civil Rights, Human Rights
So far, in this unit of the course, the notion of
“rights” has come up several times. Both Hobbes,
Locke, and Mills discuss rights in some way.
As you may recall, Hobbes defines right as a type of
liberty, the freedom to do something without
impediment. Both Hobbes and Locke believe that
humans have natural rights, that is inherent
freedoms that they are endowed with by nature. In
other words, because humans and the world are
they way they are, humans come with pre-given
rights. For Hobbes the principle right held by
humans was to do whatever it takes to survive. For
Locke it was to defend one’s property (including
one’s life).
For Hobbes, when humans enter a social contract
and form a government with laws, they give up
their natural rights. For Locke, the institution of
government provides a way of guaranteeing one’s
natural rights by codifying those rights into law. When
a sovereign power establishes rights for its citizens
and laws for protecting those rights, we get civil
rights.
Natural rights apply in the state of nature while civil
rights apply in civilization. Human rights refer to
those rights which humans hold simply because they
are human. Such rights are closer in kind to natural
rights, but are often reflected in civil rights.
The notion of human rights gets invoked frequently in
discussions of violations of human dignity and ethics.
But where do human rights come from? Are they
real? Who guarantees them? How effective are
they in protecting vulnerable people? Do
other-than-human beings have rights, too?
Amartya Sen, 1933 -
Sen was born in West Bengal India in 1933. He
received is B.A., M.A., and Ph.D. in Economics at
Trinity College in Cambridge, England. His research
has included topics such as social choice theory,
economic theory, ethics and political philosophy,
welfare economics, theory of measurement,
decision theory, development economics, public
health, and gender studies. His interest in global
welfare and human rights was partly inspired by his
experience of witnessing famine in India.
Sen has served on various economic advisory
boards including the American Economic
Association. He has also received numerous awards
for his work, the most prestigious of which was the
Nobel Prize in economics.
Sen currently teaches at Harvard University.

The aim of this paper is to look into the topic of human rights; consequently showing that the fight for recognizing the cultural identity develops through the system of human rights. Specifically speaking, the latter is achieved through civil and political rights, individual rights, and I generation. The collective practices of the cultural self-identification of the individual develop exactly through the civil rights, namely speaking the right of self-determination. The collective practices also influence and determine the political system. Therefore, in this paper I direct the tone towards the democratic form of the political system of the segmented or the plural multicultural societies and countries. The implication of this paper is that the consociational democracy (or consensual according to some authors) as a democratic and political system in multi-cultural societies and cultural difference in the politics are tightly intertwined with the source of their rights—meaning the system of human rights.

Basic Principles of Texas Government

All Rights Reserved, 2019
“Tolerance … is learned in discussion, and, as history shows, is only so learned. In
all customary societies bigotry is the ruling principle. In rude places to this day
anyone who says anything new is looked on with suspicion, and is persecuted by
opinion if not injured by penalty. One of the greatest pains to human nature is the
pain of a new idea…. It makes you think that, after all, your favourite notions may
be wrong, your firmest beliefs ill-founded…. Naturally, therefore, common men
hate a new idea, and are disposed more or less to ill-treat the original man who
brings it” (Walter Bagehot, Physics and Politics, 1869).
“No man who has the truth to tell and the power to tell it can long remain hiding it
from fear or even from despair without ignominy. To release the truth against
whatever odds, even if so doing can no longer help the Commonwealth, is a
necessity for the soul” (Hilaire Belloc, The Free Press, 1918).
Introduction: The Basic Rights of Human Beings
Activity 1: The Basic Rights of Human Beings
“Every Anglo-Texan was born with the notion he possessed unalienable rights” (T.R.
Fehrenbach, Lone Star, 189).
A. Based on this statement, what is the goal of human life? What basic rights do people
have? What is the connection between these basic rights and the goal of human life?
“All men are born free and equal, and have certain natural, essential, and unalienable rights;
among which may be reckoned the right of enjoying and defending their lives and liberties; that
of acquiring, possessing, and protecting property; in fine, that of seeking and obtaining their
safety and happiness” (Massachusetts Declaration of Rights, March 2, 1780).
B. Based on this statement, how many basic rights do people have? Why these particular
rights? Why this number?
“Among the natural rights of the Colonists are these: First, a right to life; Secondly, to liberty;
Thirdly, to property; together with the right to support and defend them in the best manner they
can. These are evident branches of … the duty of self-preservation, commonly called the first
law of nature” (Samuel Adams, The Rights of the Colonists, November 20, 1772).
2
C. Based on this statement, who or what decides which basic rights human beings have?
What are “the immutable laws of nature”?
“That the inhabitants of the English Colonies in North America, by the immutable laws of
nature, the principles of the English Constitution, and the several charters or compacts … are
entitled to life, liberty, and property, & they have never ceded to any sovereign power whatever,
a right to dispose of either without their consent” (Declaration and Resolves of the First
Continental Congress, October 14, 1774).
D. Based on this statement, how many basic rights do people have? What does the word
“liberty” mean, in the context of our three ba ...
What Are Human Rights?
Human rights are rights inherent to all human beings, regardless of race, sex, nationality, ethnicity, language, religion, or any other status. Human rights include the right to life and liberty, freedom from slavery and torture, freedom of opinion and expression, the right to work and education, and many more. Everyone is entitled to these rights, without discrimination.
International Human Rights Law
International human rights law lays down the obligations of Governments to act in certain ways or to refrain from certain acts, in order to promote and protect human rights and fundamental freedoms of individuals or groups.
One of the great achievements of the United Nations is the creation of a comprehensive body of human rights law—a universal and internationally protected code to which all nations can subscribe and all people aspire. The United Nations has defined a broad range of internationally accepted rights, including civil, cultural, economic, political and social rights. It has also established mechanisms to promote and protect these rights and to assist states in carrying out their responsibilities.
The foundations of this body of law are the Charter of the United Nations and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, adopted by the General Assembly in 1945 and 1948, respectively. Since then, the United Nations has gradually expanded human rights law to encompass specific standards for women, children, persons with disabilities, minorities and other vulnerable groups, who now possess rights that protect them from discrimination that had long been common in many societies.

Week 1 What is Global Social JusticeIntroductionSimply put, .docxcelenarouzie
Week 1: What is Global Social Justice?
Introduction
Simply put, social justice is the concept of a "just" society based on a foundation of human rights. Most agree with the idea of basic human rights for all, yet, the nature of human rights varies dramatically around the world. When you consider social justice on a global level, think about the challenge of achieving a "just" society for every human being. What is considered "right" or "just" for all? Is it possible to have a universal acceptance of one interpretation of social justice?
This week you consider varied interpretations of social justice. You explore classic documents and analyze them for Western bias and universal applicability. Finally, you explain your personal ideology regarding social justice.

Title of Paper
Begin your paper with the introduction. The active voice, rather than passive voice, should be used in your writing.
This template is formatted according to APA Style guidelines, with one inch top, bottom, left, and right margins; Times New Roman font in 12 point; double-spaced; aligned flush left; and paragraphs indented 5-7 spaces. The page number appears one inch from the right edge on the first line of each page, excluding the Figures page.
In this introduction, you will describe the purpose of your paper (the first rubric element) – in other words, what your paper sets out to do. This video provides some guidance on how to structure an introductory paragraph. In this case, you are providing a microeconomic analysis of a particular company and you will analyze different microeconomic criteria related to your company and the market in which it operates. This analysis will then inform your recommendations for how the company can be successful in the future. Be sure to provide some specifics about what you will be analyzing so the reader knows what to expect – use the outline provided in the Final Project Document as your guide. Lastly, make sure that the company you choose is well suited for this kind of analysis. Please see the suggested list provided in your course for ideas and email your instructor your choice. Any company not on the list will need prior approval.History of the Company
Use headings and subheadings to organize the sections of your paper. The first heading level is formatted with initial caps and is centered on the page. Do not start a new page for each heading. This first heading aligns with the second rubric element which gives an overview of the company’s history. Be sure to personalize this heading to reflect your company. In this section, include you will summarize the history of the firm and also provide an overview of what the firm does and what goods/services it sells. Be sure to include sufficient detail here. Your company’s website is the best place to find this information. This section should be about one page long.
Supply and Demand Conditions
There are two rubric elements to be included in this section and combined they should be about 2 pages in length, perhaps longer if you present more than one graph/table. The first element asks you to evaluate the trends in demand over time and explain their impact on the industry and on the firm. To do this, you can consider market demand. Market demand is the demand by all the consumers of a given good or service. Find out who your customers are and provide detail on them. Use annual sales data to find out how much of the product is purchased. Here is a video explaining each of the following determinants of market demand that you could examine for your company’s market:
· Income
· Price of related goods
· Tastes
· Population and Demographics
· Expected F.

The health of freedom in American society today
Freedom ( choice, lack of coercion, liberalism, democracy isn’t the only way to freedom but is an outward expression of freedom) in the relation to democracy, how to over throw tyranny and terror (sh)
Democracy is ruled by the majority, though this is in place in American society today it deffinelty paves the way for free thought and choice among individuals. More fair than one person’s rule, its an collective rule by the community.
Elections (frequent elections and the more opportunity to do so is an expression of freedom)
Voting is one of the pillars of democracy and a modern view of the “good life” (Lesson3)
Though there are minor restrictions there such as age and criminal history or mental health (Political equality= they should be no restriction on race or gender)
Different view points (political positions) there must be choice
And free market media ( Truth=informed choice) no political censorship
Sharansky= “A lack of moral clarity is also the tragedy that has befallen efforts to advance peace and security in the world. Promoting peace and security is fundamentally connected to promoting freedom and democracy” (p.xix)

3. ?
Economic freedom
1. The free market
Three major threats to freedom
Moral relativism
Develops into Is totalitarianism = rejecting religious heritage and objective standards
No moral truths which is no intrinsic value of an individual
There is an absence of standards and the forces decides what is right
Thus freedom is not enjoyed
2. Soft Deposition
Handing over ones freedom for safety and security
The government has full control to make the people happy
3. The decline for Americans to utilize their freedom in America. If American rights are not exercised daily it will soon be taken away.
Solution
s to these threats
Obtaining civic values
Encouraging Americans to exercise their rights
3. Have a government that continues to be structured to be for the people and to protect the rights of citizens

Introduction: What is currently standing in my way of achieving these goals?I intend to do is a complete turnaround and modification of behavior and perspective in how to be better in leadership. One of the first crucial changes involves changing my habits and specifically ensuring that I am well informed on issues that affect the individuals under my leadership. This is in line with opening communication more and avoiding seclusion and being alone as it is the role of a leader to be always communicating or around his followers at most times. More crucial is to change how I conduct decision making and implement more logical and practical consideration to every situation as it is always good to find an advantage for everybody. To lead the mission to a fruitful conclusion, a leader must establish priorities and utilize the talents, creativity, resources and energy of his followers, generally imperfect individuals, and empower them to rise to and occasionally beyond their previously assumed potential. Great leaders establish a plan, a map to help them organize and ensure they have an appropriate and effective team in place, clearly communicate the plan to and lead their followers to the destination (Jackson, 2012)
Personal values: Needless to say, “all leaders, all human beings, have values. Values are beliefs that represent an individual’s ideas about what is right, good or desirable (Robbins, S. P. & Judge T. A., 2011, p. 144). My philosophy on leadership is founded on my collective life experiences, reflections, successes, and failures. I see a great correlation in terms of how leaders and followers come to meet and get a way forward. As such, I should express more respect for the leaders and followers that are able to listen and interact with me as it shows they support some of my opinions in terms of strength through relationships. I intend to essentially align and try to use my values as a guideline in everything I participate in and everything I say in my work, my relationships and in my family. Also, it is the nature of humans to make errors once in a while but not too often. As such, it is important to be more compassionate and understanding in order to provide an opportunity for them and me to learn from it as their failures are my failures. The manner in which contribution is usually provided is at times not appreciated and as a leader it is crucial to recognize efforts made in a team work setting.
What do I want to make out of my life? This requires a clear vision in order for it to be implemented. This means that I have to lay own my agenda and goals in order to be more accurate in achieving the overall development and growth. This should be in line with my work ethic and beliefs in order for it to be effective and more professional. This would provide me .

Introduction
Electronic Health Record (EHR) is the computerized storage and sharing of patients’ health information to help in continuous monitoring of the patients’ health (Shickel B., 2017). This is a system developed to enable health clinics share information that can help in providing effective medication to the patients with different kinds of health needs. The data on patients is stored and accessed by the clinics during visits from the patient which will help in care management of the patients. An electronic health record system can be helpful as the information stored consist of medical history of a patient, laboratory tests, treatment plans, immunization dates and various allergies of the patients. This is helpful when the patient visits different clinic health providers where they will not need to explain the situations over and over again.
Electronic health record system automates information sharing and reduces the traditional paper work which was tiresome and had a great risk of losing information. With the HER, information on patients is kept in a secure system where only authorized persons can access it. Errors are minimized in provision of health care since the information kept can be more accurate and available at any given time.
Wasatch Family Clinic will greatly benefit from this strategy of recording, keeping and sharing of information on patients. The nurses can use the system to easily record the patients’ names, numbers and all other critical information required during scheduling for clinical attendance of any patient. Tracing of the information will be easier compared to using the traditional form of papers in storing information for a patient.
Need to share data
Information on health status of a patient has to be kept with care and only authorized persons can be able to access them. This helps in building ethical handling of patients’ information which creates their trust on the health care providers (Drazen J., 2015).
Wasatch Family Clinic needs to share their health data with the patients for them to understand their health issues. The clinic also needs to share data with other health facilities in order to increase the patient’s safety and a great care.
Duplicate registrations will be avoided by sharing data in the different departments of the health care center. A real-time link can be created for the patients from registration, through consultation, testing and final medication. This can save Wasatch family Clinic from traditional paper work which took most time when searching for medical records of a patient at every stage in the clinic. Time can also be saved when the information of the patient is a system shared by the departments of the clinic health center.
Wasatch Family Clinic will also benefit economically when the data is shared improving service time and hence reducing.

Serial murderer – an introduction
The crime of manslaughter has been known for a long time, to be specifically the early 1600’s but the initial case of a serial murderer was in the year 1888, named, Jack the Ripper, who killed and mutilated five prostitutes in the East London. Field experts have stated that at any time, the United States has around 50 active serial murderers, owing to the fact that arroba the year multiple homicides have occurred. Now the question arises, who is a serial killer?
A person possessing a specific emotional drive to kill mercilessly is termed as a serial murderer. These murders, killings, manslaughters, or homicides are generally done in a different way that distinguishes one serial murderer from another. The killer often has a sign that they are distinguished with. Serial murderers are kept in the page as being mass- slayers. The only difference being that serial murderers do not naturally kill the way mass murderers/ slayers do, i.e. mass slayers don’t leave breaks in committing the merciless murders. On the other hand, serial murderers tend to have a distinct feature that reflects the fact that they are murderers with a psychotic overdrive (Ellens, 2011).
Jeffrey Dahmer
Nearly 25 years ago, one of America’s most infamous serial murderers, Jeffrey Dahmer, a paedophile, and a cannibal, was confronted, attacked and mercilessly slayed while cleaning the bathroom of a prison. His span of crime ranged from June 18, 1978 till July 19, 1991.
Jeffrey Dahmer, also known as Milwaukee Cannibal or the Milwaukee Monster, was an American serial murderer and a sex criminal who brutally raped and then killed 17 men and boys between the years 1978 to 1991. Several of those later homicides consisted of preservation of several body parts of the victims, necrophilia and cannibalism. Though he was initially diagnosed with several mental diseases like borderline personality disorder, a psychotic disorder, and schizotypal personality disorder, Dahmer was found to be legitimately stable at his probation.
He was sentenced for fifteen terms of life custody on February 15, 1992 for the fifteen of the sixteen homicides that he had committed in Wisconsin. Later, he was condemned to a sixteenth term of life custody for an additional slaughter in 1978 in Ohio. Dahmer was crushed to death by Christopher Scarver On November 28th, 1994 at the Columbia Correctional Institution (Martens, 2011).
Jeffery’s move into criminality- early years
It is reported by witnesses that as an infant, Dahmer was deprived of attention and love that a child expects from his parents. It is also reported that his mother was identified as a stressed, covetous, and argumentative lady who often quarrelled with her husband and their neighbours. As Dahmer entered the first grade, his mother .

Sexuality education in schools
1. Audience for webinar
The audience for the webinar is divided into three age groups. The school going students are the audience. First audience group is the middle child, the second audience group is early childhood and the third group is early adolescence forth is emerging adults. The webinar content will be highly useful because it will educate the audience about the sexuality. The sexual harassments, teenage pregnancy, and many more issues are associated with it, so there is the necessity for such type of education. The webinar content will be characterized specifically according to each age group. The middle childhood and early adolescence need some specific and limited awareness but the adolescence and emerging adults need the detailed awareness.
2. Intended Focus
The webinar focus is on that audience which doesn’t need the higher consideration of the webinar topic. There is a need to educate immature children, teenagers and adults about sexuality. It’s all about creating awareness. Today the world is modernized. The difference between male and female doesn’t matter. The co-education system created a lot of issues along its benefits. There is need to educate the students including girl and boys so they can avoid all bad activities which can lead them towards destruction. Sexuality is not all about the willingness of two people but it sometimes happened in terms of harassments.
The focus is based on the education of immature younger and teenager students who are living in the global world, studying in co-education. Parents are not advising them about the fact that they should avoid such type of relationships, predict the harassments and prevent themselves for being victimized. So, the major focus is to provide awareness to them so they can prevent all that approaches and secure themselves. The webinar focused the school educational system in which such type of awareness sessions are necessary. It has many benefits and our children can take decisions with complete consideration of good and bad.
3. Research Into Webinar Topic
The webinar topic is “Sexuality education in schools”. In recent past years, there are many issues which are get promoted without any awareness and education about sexuality. Entire families are facing a different kind of issues (Shirai, Tsujimura, Abdelhamed, & Horie, 2018). Some families children faced sexual harassments, some victimized by a rapist, some faced the teenage pregnancy, and many facing the diseases which are prevailing with sexual relationships. Sexuality education is necessary, it can eliminate the fantasy factor in which our teenager is living (Breuner, Mattson, & Health., 2016). Innocent adolescence is not aware that how much it could destroy them. How someone can make them victim without there any type of notice and awareness. In innocence and unawareness lot of children f.

Sexually Transmitted Diseases
Summary of teaching plan
Title: Sexually Transmitted Diseases
Overview
Sexually Transmitted Diseases are diseases that are transmitted from one person to another during oral, anal and vaginal sexual activities. STDs are very common especially among sexually active teenagers and a number of them don’t have the symptoms making it hard to tell if one has contacted one. STDs are very dangerous to one’s health however, it can be detected when one is tested and majority of them have a cure (Bouchery, Harwood, and Brewer, 2014). STDs are preventable with abstinence and safe sexual practices; one is likely not to contract the disease. Examples of the STDs are: chlamydia, genital warts, gonorrhea, hepatitis B, herpes, HIV and AIDS, Human Papillomavirus, scabies, syphilis and trichomoniais (Stingler, Neusel, and Perry, 2013).
Objectives
1. To help the teenagers understand what STDs are as well as ways one can contract them
2. To teach the teenagers some of the preventive measures of contracting STDs.
3. To educate the teenagers on measures on should take incase exposed to an environment one is likely to contract STDs
4. To help the teenagers differentiate the myths from the facts regarding STDs
Materials
Video clips featuring adults and teenage experts, Graphic power point presentations
STD pamphlets, Writing materials: Pens and Plain papers, Teacher’s laptop, overhead screen
Estimated cost: Overhead screen will be offered by the church, additional materials needed about $45-$80
Directions
The learning sessions was grouped into four different sessions lasting approximately 30 to 45 minutes. In the first session, it was purely teaching session where I addressed all the objectives in a classroom setting and the teenagers were allowed to take notes. Teaching was enhanced with graphic power points to help create a visual understanding of the different concepts put across. The second session on the other hand was purely audio visual where the teenagers were allowed to view different Video clips featuring adults and teenage experts expounding on sexually, transmitted disease. The audio-visual session also addressed all the objectives just as the case was in the classroom set up in session one.
The third session was an open forum where the teenagers were allowed to ask questions, seek clarification on different issues or add more insight on concept learned. This session was an interactive one where all disturbing questions was addressed. The end of this session was marked by satisfactory response to all questions and insight brought forward by both the teacher and the teenagers.
The fourth and final session was an examination setup where each of the participants were given a quick test to test their understanding for the concepts learnt. Those who performed exemplary were awarded certificates and gifts and the whole were issued pa.

Running head: SETTING UP RESEARCH
1 Chapter 6 Methods of Measuring Behavior
WHAT YOU’LL LEARN ABOUT IN THIS CHAPTER:
· • The use of different methods of measuring behavior and collecting data
· • What a test is
· • How different types of tests are designed to assess different types of behavior
· • The use of achievement tests in the behavioral and social sciences
· • The design of multiple-choice items
· • How to do an item analysis
· • The application of attitude scales
· • The difference between Thurstone and Likert attitude scales
In Chapter 5, you got a healthy dose of the theoretical issues that provide the foundation for the science of measurement, why measurement is crucial to the research process, how reliability and validity are defined, and how each of these can be established.
In this chapter, you will begin learning about the application of some of these principles as you read about different methods that can be used to measure behavior, including the ubiquitous test, the questionnaire, the interview, and other techniques.
As you read this chapter, keep several things in mind. Your foremost concern in deciding what method you will use to measure the behavior of interest should be whether the tool you intend to use is a reliable and valid one. This is equally true for the best-designed test and for the most informal-appearing interview. If your test does not “work,” then virtually nothing else will.
Second, the way in which you ask your question will determine the way in which you go about measuring the variables that interest you. If you want to know about how people feel toward a particular issue, then you are talking about attitudinal scales. If you want to know how much information people have about a particular subject, then you are talking about an achievement test or some other measure of knowledge. The focus of a study (such as the effects of unemployment on self-esteem) might be the same, whether you measure attitude or achievement, but what you use to assess your outcome variable depends on the question you ask. You need to decide the intent of your research activity, which in turn reflects your original research question and hypothesis.
Third, really efficient researchers are fully onboard for using whatever method helps them answer the questions that are being asked. This might include a mixed-methods model where one aspect of a research program might include qualitative methods while another might include qualitative methods (see Chapter 10). As research questions and their associated hypotheses become more intricate and complex, the creative side of using a particular research method correctly becomes more important.
Finally, keep in mind that methods vary widely in the time it takes to learn how to use them, in the measurement process itself, and in what you can do with the information once you have collected it. For example, an interview might be appropriate to determine how teachers feel about chang.

NP4. Sex as a Protected Class
NP5. March 22, 2020
NP6. Introduction
NP7. This paper will analyze the question, would removing the protected class designation on 'sex' make a more robust, more competitive workforce, by equalizing the playing the field for men and women. 8. Addressing the question will involve defining and applying moral imagination, moral courage, Dr. Laura's Three Prerequisites for Assigning Moral Credit of Culpability, Utilitarianism, Kantian Ethics, Intersecting Circle's Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Model, Strict Liability Theory, Kohlberg's Moral Development Model, Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs Model, and Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC).
NP9. EEOC Laws and Protected Classes
NP10. Protected classes are the groups protected from employment discrimination by law. 11. These groups include men and women based on sex; any group which shares a common race, religion, color, or national origin; people over 40; and people with physical or mental handicaps” 11a. (NARA, 2020, para 36). 12. The designation of a protected class requires employers to abide by the EEOC Laws. 13. The EEOC Laws are “five laws which prohibit discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, national origin, physical handicap and mental handicap in any terms, conditions, or privileges of employment” 13a. (NARA, 2020, para 16). 14. The applicable laws were designed to “correct a history of unfavorable treatment of women and minority group members” 14a. (NARA, 2020, para 36). 15. Although men and women cannot be discriminated against based on sex, the protected class of sex was designed to prevent discrimination of women in the workplace. 16. The analysis throughout the paper will focus on this fact, and decide if removing sex as a protected class will make the workforce more competitive.
NP17. Moral Courage and Moral Imagination
NP18. Looking at removing a protected class will involve looking at the question from multiple perspectives, this requires moral imagination. 19. Biasucci, Hernandez, and Prentice, 19a. (2020, para 1) say, "Moral imagination, according to philosopher Mark Johnson, means envisioning the full range of possibilities in a particular situation in order to solve an ethical challenge." 20. One view is that the workforce is handing out jobs to women over men, for fear of discriminating accusations. 21. If sex is no longer a protected class, then companies would be able to select the qualified individual without fear of reprisal. 22. Another way of looking at the issue is from the actual definition of protected classes. 23. Sex is a protected class, meaning that both men and women are technically protected from discrimination. 24. From this viewpoint, companies could be accused by both men and women if they feel they employers actively discriminated against them. 25. .

Combatting Senior Isolation with Volunteerism
Senior isolation is a social issue that many of our senior citizens face today. It is estimated that 40% of our senior population suffers from senior isolation. Senior isolation in the elderly has been linked to an increase in illnesses, mortality, depression, elder abuse and a higher incidence of the elderly needing long term care services. It is one of the largest risks to our aging senior’s health and well-being. Volunteer work can help combat senior isolation and have a positive impact on a senior’s health. Senior citizens make up 15.2 percent of the total population of the United States according to the 2016 census bureau and it is reported that by 2060 the number of senior citizens will double. Senior volunteer programs that promote involvement can assist in combating isolation and the negative health consequences while keeping our seniors healthy and active within their communities.
Senior Corps is an organization that currently engages roughly 220,000 older adults between the ages of 55 and above within America in service to their communities through its Foster Grandparent, Senior companion and RSVP programs according to Nationalservice.gov. Utilizing the strengths and assets of our seniors today not only keeps our seniors from isolation but also benefits the communities in which they live. The primary focus of Senior corps is to utilize the strengths, skills and attributes of seniors 55 and above to help tutor, mentor, care for and volunteer to meet the needs of others within their community while also having mutually positive benefits to the health and wellness of the aging senior population. Senior Corp programs not only improve the lives of those served but also the lives of the senior volunteers. Service learning opportunities within Senior Corps could produce beneficial outcomes for the American communities that Senior Corps volunteers, the partnering universities and the student service learners reside. The collegiate service learning students can play an instrumental role in increasing awareness with marketing strategies including recruitment events and informative meetings to promote participation, and enrollment into the programs. Creating and implementing marketing plans while utilizing their technology skills and social media platforms, collegiate service learners can assist Senior Corps in increasing the number of senior volunteers enrolled within each of the programs. Intergenerational learning can promote valuable relationships and partnerships that help bridge the generation gap. Service learners in intergeneration settings report “positive outcomes related to a better understanding of the older generation, enjoyment of interacting with the elders, appreciation of the life exp.

The American Red Cross is an organization with immeasurable commitment to provision of compassionate care to people who are in need in America. As such, this is their mission and their budget epitomizes this. The largest chunk of the income that is mainly received from grants from governments and organizations as well as donations from organizations is spent on humanitarian activities. For the year 2018, 91.85% of the $0.5 billion that was raised from the aforementioned sources was used in humanitarian activities. These included helping people who needed care in in disasters in the shortest notice, ensuring and maintaining community health especially by being in the frontline to deliver blood to patients who needed it in our health facilities. The organization recognizes the importance of mitigating disasters before they happen and therefore set aside $1,659,000 that was used to keep teams ready to stop a disaster before it happened or minimize injury or loss of life as much as possible. This is in line with the organizations principle of being proactive rather than react to disasters when they happen.
The American Red Cross has a total 12,534 permanent employees spread all over the nation to offer humanitarian help whenever and wherever it is needed (Hutchinson, 2018). These are selfless individuals who are always risking their lives to save others’. The organization therefore aims at giving the employees the best working conditions given the circumstances and making sure that they stay safe as much as possible while delivering help. As such, American Red Cross buys the best equipment and vehicles to help the employees as well as volunteers in humanitarian work to get to sites of disasters in the shortest time possible and safely. This is why the company has invested in top notch ambulances that have lifesaving equipment that may be used by the employees to save lives in an occurrence of a disaster.
As indicated above, funds that are used by the organization to finance its operations as well as management are received from state and federal government, and international organizations as grants or from the public as donations. Often times, the funders wish to know how the funds that they give out the cause of saving human lives through humanitarian assistance is used (Schnupp & Möller 2018). The organization therefore posts its official budget on its official website where it can be accessed by all people. In the last 5 years, the donations have been on the rise and this is a good indicator that the people who fund the organizations are happy about how the money they give to it is being used.
One of the key strengths in the company is the manner in which the employees relate with each other and the organization at large. The organization appreciates the selflessness of the people working there. As such, employee retreats are held.

“Tolerance … is learned in discussion, and, as history shows, is only so learned. In
all customary societies bigotry is the ruling principle. In rude places to this day
anyone who says anything new is looked on with suspicion, and is persecuted by
opinion if not injured by penalty. One of the greatest pains to human nature is the
pain of a new idea…. It makes you think that, after all, your favourite notions may
be wrong, your firmest beliefs ill-founded…. Naturally, therefore, common men
hate a new idea, and are disposed more or less to ill-treat the original man who
brings it” (Walter Bagehot, Physics and Politics, 1869).
“No man who has the truth to tell and the power to tell it can long remain hiding it
from fear or even from despair without ignominy. To release the truth against
whatever odds, even if so doing can no longer help the Commonwealth, is a
necessity for the soul” (Hilaire Belloc, The Free Press, 1918).

have? What is the connection between these basic rights and the goal of human life?
“All men are born free and equal, and have certain natural, essential, and unalienable rights;
among which may be reckoned the right of enjoying and defending their lives and liberties; that
of acquiring, possessing, and protecting property; in fine, that of seeking and obtaining their
safety and happiness” (Massachusetts Declaration of Rights, March 2, 1780).
B. Based on this statement, how many basic rights do people have? Why these particular
rights? Why this number?
“Among the natural rights of the Colonists are these: First, a right to life; Secondly, to liberty;
Thirdly, to property; together with the right to support and defend them in the best manner they
can. These are evident branches of … the duty of self-preservation, commonly called the first
law of nature” (Samuel Adams, The Rights of the Colonists, November 20, 1772).

What Are Human Rights?
Human rights are rights inherent to all human beings, regardless of race, sex, nationality, ethnicity, language, religion, or any other status. Human rights include the right to life and liberty, freedom from slavery and torture, freedom of opinion and expression, the right to work and education, and many more. Everyone is entitled to these rights, without discrimination.
International Human Rights Law
International human rights law lays down the obligations of Governments to act in certain ways or to refrain from certain acts, in order to promote and protect human rights and fundamental freedoms of individuals or groups.
One of the great achievements of the United Nations is the creation of a comprehensive body of human rights law—a universal and internationally protected code to which all nations can subscribe and all people aspire. The United Nations has defined a broad range of internationally accepted rights, including civil, cultural, economic, political and social rights. It has also established mechanisms to promote and protect these rights and to assist states in carrying out their responsibilities.
The foundations of this body of law are the Charter of the United Nations and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, adopted by the General Assembly in 1945 and 1948, respectively. Since then, the United Nations has gradually expanded human rights law to encompass specific standards for women, children, persons with disabilities, minorities and other vulnerable groups, who now possess rights that protect them from discrimination that had long been common in many societies.

Week 1: What is Global Social Justice?
Introduction
Simply put, social justice is the concept of a "just" society based on a foundation of human rights. Most agree with the idea of basic human rights for all, yet, the nature of human rights varies dramatically around the world. When you consider social justice on a global level, think about the challenge of achieving a "just" society for every human being. What is considered "right" or "just" for all? Is it possible to have a universal acceptance of one interpretation of social justice?
This week you consider varied interpretations of social justice. You explore classic documents and analyze them for Western bias and universal applicability. Finally, you explain your personal ideology regarding social justice.

In this section, include you will summarize the history of the firm and also provide an overview of what the firm does and what goods/services it sells. Be sure to include sufficient detail here. Your company’s website is the best place to find this information. This section should be about one page long.
Supply and Demand Conditions
There are two rubric elements to be included in this section and combined they should be about 2 pages in length, perhaps longer if you present more than one graph/table. The first element asks you to evaluate the trends in demand over time and explain their impact on the industry and on the firm. To do this, you can consider market demand. Market demand is the demand by all the consumers of a given good or service. Find out who your customers are and provide detail on them. Use annual sales data to find out how much of the product is purchased. Here is a video explaining each of the following determinants of market demand that you could examine for your company’s market:
· Income
· Price of related goods
· Tastes
· Population and Demographics
· Expected F.

Democracy is ruled by the majority, though this is in place in American society today it deffinelty paves the way for free thought and choice among individuals. More fair than one person’s rule, its an collective rule by the community.

Voting is one of the pillars of democracy and a modern view of the “good life” (Lesson3)
Though there are minor restrictions there such as age and criminal history or mental health (Political equality= they should be no restriction on race or gender)
Different view points (political positions) there must be choice

Introduction: What is currently standing in my way of achieving these goals?I intend to do is a complete turnaround and modification of behavior and perspective in how to be better in leadership. One of the first crucial changes involves changing my habits and specifically ensuring that I am well informed on issues that affect the individuals under my leadership. This is in line with opening communication more and avoiding seclusion and being alone as it is the role of a leader to be always communicating or around his followers at most times. More crucial is to change how I conduct decision making and implement more logical and practical consideration to every situation as it is always good to find an advantage for everybody. To lead the mission to a fruitful conclusion, a leader must establish priorities and utilize the talents, creativity, resources and energy of his followers, generally imperfect individuals, and empower them to rise to and occasionally beyond their previously assumed potential. Great leaders establish a plan, a map to help them organize and ensure they have an appropriate and effective team in place, clearly communicate the plan to and lead their followers to the destination (Jackson, 2012)
Personal values: Needless to say, “all leaders, all human beings, have values. Values are beliefs that represent an individual’s ideas about what is right, good or desirable (Robbins, S. P. & Judge T. A., 2011, p. 144). My philosophy on leadership is founded on my collective life experiences, reflections, successes, and failures. I see a great correlation in terms of how leaders and followers come to meet and get a way forward. As such, I should express more respect for the leaders and followers that are able to listen and interact with me as it shows they support some of my opinions in terms of strength through relationships. I intend to essentially align and try to use my values as a guideline in everything I participate in and everything I say in my work, my relationships and in my family. Also, it is the nature of humans to make errors once in a while but not too often. As such, it is important to be more compassionate and understanding in order to provide an opportunity for them and me to learn from it as their failures are my failures. The manner in which contribution is usually provided is at times not appreciated and as a leader it is crucial to recognize efforts made in a team work setting.
What do I want to make out of my life? This requires a clear vision in order for it to be implemented. This means that I have to lay own my agenda and goals in order to be more accurate in achieving the overall development and growth. This should be in line with my work ethic and beliefs in order for it to be effective and more professional. This would provide me .

Introduction
Electronic Health Record (EHR) is the computerized storage and sharing of patients’ health information to help in continuous monitoring of the patients’ health (Shickel B., 2017). This is a system developed to enable health clinics share information that can help in providing effective medication to the patients with different kinds of health needs. The data on patients is stored and accessed by the clinics during visits from the patient which will help in care management of the patients. An electronic health record system can be helpful as the information stored consist of medical history of a patient, laboratory tests, treatment plans, immunization dates and various allergies of the patients. This is helpful when the patient visits different clinic health providers where they will not need to explain the situations over and over again.
Electronic health record system automates information sharing and reduces the traditional paper work which was tiresome and had a great risk of losing information. With the HER, information on patients is kept in a secure system where only authorized persons can access it. Errors are minimized in provision of health care since the information kept can be more accurate and available at any given time.
Wasatch Family Clinic will greatly benefit from this strategy of recording, keeping and sharing of information on patients. The nurses can use the system to easily record the patients’ names, numbers and all other critical information required during scheduling for clinical attendance of any patient. Tracing of the information will be easier compared to using the traditional form of papers in storing information for a patient.
Need to share data
Information on health status of a patient has to be kept with care and only authorized persons can be able to access them. This helps in building ethical handling of patients’ information which creates their trust on the health care providers (Drazen J., 2015).
Wasatch Family Clinic needs to share their health data with the patients for them to understand their health issues. The clinic also needs to share data with other health facilities in order to increase the patient’s safety and a great care.
Duplicate registrations will be avoided by sharing data in the different departments of the health care center. A real-time link can be created for the patients from registration, through consultation, testing and final medication. This can save Wasatch family Clinic from traditional paper work which took most time when searching for medical records of a patient at every stage in the clinic. Time can also be saved when the information of the patient is a system shared by the departments of the clinic health center.
Wasatch Family Clinic will also benefit economically when the data is shared improving service time and hence reducing.

Serial murderer – an introduction
The crime of manslaughter has been known for a long time, to be specifically the early 1600’s but the initial case of a serial murderer was in the year 1888, named, Jack the Ripper, who killed and mutilated five prostitutes in the East London. Field experts have stated that at any time, the United States has around 50 active serial murderers, owing to the fact that arroba the year multiple homicides have occurred. Now the question arises, who is a serial killer?
A person possessing a specific emotional drive to kill mercilessly is termed as a serial murderer. These murders, killings, manslaughters, or homicides are generally done in a different way that distinguishes one serial murderer from another. The killer often has a sign that they are distinguished with. Serial murderers are kept in the page as being mass- slayers. The only difference being that serial murderers do not naturally kill the way mass murderers/ slayers do, i.e. mass slayers don’t leave breaks in committing the merciless murders. On the other hand, serial murderers tend to have a distinct feature that reflects the fact that they are murderers with a psychotic overdrive (Ellens, 2011).
Jeffrey Dahmer
Nearly 25 years ago, one of America’s most infamous serial murderers, Jeffrey Dahmer, a paedophile, and a cannibal, was confronted, attacked and mercilessly slayed while cleaning the bathroom of a prison. His span of crime ranged from June 18, 1978 till July 19, 1991.
Jeffrey Dahmer, also known as Milwaukee Cannibal or the Milwaukee Monster, was an American serial murderer and a sex criminal who brutally raped and then killed 17 men and boys between the years 1978 to 1991. Several of those later homicides consisted of preservation of several body parts of the victims, necrophilia and cannibalism. Though he was initially diagnosed with several mental diseases like borderline personality disorder, a psychotic disorder, and schizotypal personality disorder, Dahmer was found to be legitimately stable at his probation.
He was sentenced for fifteen terms of life custody on February 15, 1992 for the fifteen of the sixteen homicides that he had committed in Wisconsin. Later, he was condemned to a sixteenth term of life custody for an additional slaughter in 1978 in Ohio. Dahmer was crushed to death by Christopher Scarver On November 28th, 1994 at the Columbia Correctional Institution (Martens, 2011).
Jeffery’s move into criminality- early years
It is reported by witnesses that as an infant, Dahmer was deprived of attention and love that a child expects from his parents. It is also reported that his mother was identified as a stressed, covetous, and argumentative lady who often quarrelled with her husband and their neighbours. As Dahmer entered the first grade, his mother .

1. Audience for webinar
The audience for the webinar is divided into three age groups. The school going students are the audience. First audience group is the middle child, the second audience group is early childhood and the third group is early adolescence forth is emerging adults. The webinar content will be highly useful because it will educate the audience about the sexuality. The sexual harassments, teenage pregnancy, and many more issues are associated with it, so there is the necessity for such type of education. The webinar content will be characterized specifically according to each age group. The middle childhood and early adolescence need some specific and limited awareness but the adolescence and emerging adults need the detailed awareness.
2. Intended Focus
The webinar focus is on that audience which doesn’t need the higher consideration of the webinar topic. There is a need to educate immature children, teenagers and adults about sexuality. It’s all about creating awareness. Today the world is modernized. The difference between male and female doesn’t matter. The co-education system created a lot of issues along its benefits. There is need to educate the students including girl and boys so they can avoid all bad activities which can lead them towards destruction. Sexuality is not all about the willingness of two people but it sometimes happened in terms of harassments.
The focus is based on the education of immature younger and teenager students who are living in the global world, studying in co-education. Parents are not advising them about the fact that they should avoid such type of relationships, predict the harassments and prevent themselves for being victimized. So, the major focus is to provide awareness to them so they can prevent all that approaches and secure themselves. The webinar focused the school educational system in which such type of awareness sessions are necessary. It has many benefits and our children can take decisions with complete consideration of good and bad.
3. Research Into Webinar Topic
The webinar topic is “Sexuality education in schools”. In recent past years, there are many issues which are get promoted without any awareness and education about sexuality. Entire families are facing a different kind of issues (Shirai, Tsujimura, Abdelhamed, & Horie, 2018). Some families children faced sexual harassments, some victimized by a rapist, some faced the teenage pregnancy, and many facing the diseases which are prevailing with sexual relationships. Sexuality education is necessary, it can eliminate the fantasy factor in which our teenager is living (Breuner, Mattson, & Health., 2016). Innocent adolescence is not aware that how much it could destroy them. How someone can make them victim without there any type of notice and awareness. In innocence and unawareness lot of children f.

Summary of teaching plan
Title: Sexually Transmitted Diseases
Overview
Sexually Transmitted Diseases are diseases that are transmitted from one person to another during oral, anal and vaginal sexual activities. STDs are very common especially among sexually active teenagers and a number of them don’t have the symptoms making it hard to tell if one has contacted one. STDs are very dangerous to one’s health however, it can be detected when one is tested and majority of them have a cure (Bouchery, Harwood, and Brewer, 2014). STDs are preventable with abstinence and safe sexual practices; one is likely not to contract the disease. Examples of the STDs are: chlamydia, genital warts, gonorrhea, hepatitis B, herpes, HIV and AIDS, Human Papillomavirus, scabies, syphilis and trichomoniais (Stingler, Neusel, and Perry, 2013).
Objectives
1. To help the teenagers understand what STDs are as well as ways one can contract them
2. To teach the teenagers some of the preventive measures of contracting STDs.
3. To educate the teenagers on measures on should take incase exposed to an environment one is likely to contract STDs
4. To help the teenagers differentiate the myths from the facts regarding STDs
Materials
Video clips featuring adults and teenage experts, Graphic power point presentations
STD pamphlets, Writing materials: Pens and Plain papers, Teacher’s laptop, overhead screen
Estimated cost: Overhead screen will be offered by the church, additional materials needed about $45-$80
Directions
The learning sessions was grouped into four different sessions lasting approximately 30 to 45 minutes. In the first session, it was purely teaching session where I addressed all the objectives in a classroom setting and the teenagers were allowed to take notes. Teaching was enhanced with graphic power points to help create a visual understanding of the different concepts put across. The second session on the other hand was purely audio visual where the teenagers were allowed to view different Video clips featuring adults and teenage experts expounding on sexually, transmitted disease. The audio-visual session also addressed all the objectives just as the case was in the classroom set up in session one.
The third session was an open forum where the teenagers were allowed to ask questions, seek clarification on different issues or add more insight on concept learned. This session was an interactive one where all disturbing questions was addressed. The end of this session was marked by satisfactory response to all questions and insight brought forward by both the teacher and the teenagers.
The fourth and final session was an examination setup where each of the participants were given a quick test to test their understanding for the concepts learnt. Those who performed exemplary were awarded certificates and gifts and the whole were issued pa.

1 Chapter 6 Methods of Measuring Behavior
WHAT YOU’LL LEARN ABOUT IN THIS CHAPTER:
· • The use of different methods of measuring behavior and collecting data
· • What a test is
· • How different types of tests are designed to assess different types of behavior
· • The use of achievement tests in the behavioral and social sciences
· • The design of multiple-choice items
· • How to do an item analysis
· • The application of attitude scales
· • The difference between Thurstone and Likert attitude scales
In Chapter 5, you got a healthy dose of the theoretical issues that provide the foundation for the science of measurement, why measurement is crucial to the research process, how reliability and validity are defined, and how each of these can be established.
In this chapter, you will begin learning about the application of some of these principles as you read about different methods that can be used to measure behavior, including the ubiquitous test, the questionnaire, the interview, and other techniques.
As you read this chapter, keep several things in mind. Your foremost concern in deciding what method you will use to measure the behavior of interest should be whether the tool you intend to use is a reliable and valid one. This is equally true for the best-designed test and for the most informal-appearing interview. If your test does not “work,” then virtually nothing else will.
Second, the way in which you ask your question will determine the way in which you go about measuring the variables that interest you. If you want to know about how people feel toward a particular issue, then you are talking about attitudinal scales. If you want to know how much information people have about a particular subject, then you are talking about an achievement test or some other measure of knowledge. The focus of a study (such as the effects of unemployment on self-esteem) might be the same, whether you measure attitude or achievement, but what you use to assess your outcome variable depends on the question you ask. You need to decide the intent of your research activity, which in turn reflects your original research question and hypothesis.
Third, really efficient researchers are fully onboard for using whatever method helps them answer the questions that are being asked. This might include a mixed-methods model where one aspect of a research program might include qualitative methods while another might include qualitative methods (see Chapter 10). As research questions and their associated hypotheses become more intricate and complex, the creative side of using a particular research method correctly becomes more important.
Finally, keep in mind that methods vary widely in the time it takes to learn how to use them, in the measurement process itself, and in what you can do with the information once you have collected it. For example, an interview might be appropriate to determine how teachers feel about chang.

NP5. March 22, 2020
NP6. Introduction
NP7. This paper will analyze the question, would removing the protected class designation on 'sex' make a more robust, more competitive workforce, by equalizing the playing the field for men and women. 8. Addressing the question will involve defining and applying moral imagination, moral courage, Dr. Laura's Three Prerequisites for Assigning Moral Credit of Culpability, Utilitarianism, Kantian Ethics, Intersecting Circle's Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Model, Strict Liability Theory, Kohlberg's Moral Development Model, Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs Model, and Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC).
NP9. EEOC Laws and Protected Classes
NP10. Protected classes are the groups protected from employment discrimination by law. 11. These groups include men and women based on sex; any group which shares a common race, religion, color, or national origin; people over 40; and people with physical or mental handicaps” 11a. (NARA, 2020, para 36). 12. The designation of a protected class requires employers to abide by the EEOC Laws. 13. The EEOC Laws are “five laws which prohibit discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, national origin, physical handicap and mental handicap in any terms, conditions, or privileges of employment” 13a. (NARA, 2020, para 16). 14. The applicable laws were designed to “correct a history of unfavorable treatment of women and minority group members” 14a. (NARA, 2020, para 36). 15. Although men and women cannot be discriminated against based on sex, the protected class of sex was designed to prevent discrimination of women in the workplace. 16. The analysis throughout the paper will focus on this fact, and decide if removing sex as a protected class will make the workforce more competitive.
NP17. Moral Courage and Moral Imagination
NP18. Looking at removing a protected class will involve looking at the question from multiple perspectives, this requires moral imagination. 19. Biasucci, Hernandez, and Prentice, 19a. (2020, para 1) say, "Moral imagination, according to philosopher Mark Johnson, means envisioning the full range of possibilities in a particular situation in order to solve an ethical challenge." 20. One view is that the workforce is handing out jobs to women over men, for fear of discriminating accusations. 21. If sex is no longer a protected class, then companies would be able to select the qualified individual without fear of reprisal. 22. Another way of looking at the issue is from the actual definition of protected classes. 23. Sex is a protected class, meaning that both men and women are technically protected from discrimination. 24. From this viewpoint, companies could be accused by both men and women if they feel they employers actively discriminated against them. 25. .

Combatting Senior Isolation with Volunteerism
Senior isolation is a social issue that many of our senior citizens face today. It is estimated that 40% of our senior population suffers from senior isolation. Senior isolation in the elderly has been linked to an increase in illnesses, mortality, depression, elder abuse and a higher incidence of the elderly needing long term care services. It is one of the largest risks to our aging senior’s health and well-being. Volunteer work can help combat senior isolation and have a positive impact on a senior’s health. Senior citizens make up 15.2 percent of the total population of the United States according to the 2016 census bureau and it is reported that by 2060 the number of senior citizens will double. Senior volunteer programs that promote involvement can assist in combating isolation and the negative health consequences while keeping our seniors healthy and active within their communities.
Senior Corps is an organization that currently engages roughly 220,000 older adults between the ages of 55 and above within America in service to their communities through its Foster Grandparent, Senior companion and RSVP programs according to Nationalservice.gov. Utilizing the strengths and assets of our seniors today not only keeps our seniors from isolation but also benefits the communities in which they live. The primary focus of Senior corps is to utilize the strengths, skills and attributes of seniors 55 and above to help tutor, mentor, care for and volunteer to meet the needs of others within their community while also having mutually positive benefits to the health and wellness of the aging senior population. Senior Corp programs not only improve the lives of those served but also the lives of the senior volunteers. Service learning opportunities within Senior Corps could produce beneficial outcomes for the American communities that Senior Corps volunteers, the partnering universities and the student service learners reside. The collegiate service learning students can play an instrumental role in increasing awareness with marketing strategies including recruitment events and informative meetings to promote participation, and enrollment into the programs. Creating and implementing marketing plans while utilizing their technology skills and social media platforms, collegiate service learners can assist Senior Corps in increasing the number of senior volunteers enrolled within each of the programs. Intergenerational learning can promote valuable relationships and partnerships that help bridge the generation gap. Service learners in intergeneration settings report “positive outcomes related to a better understanding of the older generation, enjoyment of interacting with the elders, appreciation of the life exp.

The American Red Cross is an organization with immeasurable commitment to provision of compassionate care to people who are in need in America. As such, this is their mission and their budget epitomizes this. The largest chunk of the income that is mainly received from grants from governments and organizations as well as donations from organizations is spent on humanitarian activities. For the year 2018, 91.85% of the $0.5 billion that was raised from the aforementioned sources was used in humanitarian activities. These included helping people who needed care in in disasters in the shortest notice, ensuring and maintaining community health especially by being in the frontline to deliver blood to patients who needed it in our health facilities. The organization recognizes the importance of mitigating disasters before they happen and therefore set aside $1,659,000 that was used to keep teams ready to stop a disaster before it happened or minimize injury or loss of life as much as possible. This is in line with the organizations principle of being proactive rather than react to disasters when they happen.
The American Red Cross has a total 12,534 permanent employees spread all over the nation to offer humanitarian help whenever and wherever it is needed (Hutchinson, 2018). These are selfless individuals who are always risking their lives to save others’. The organization therefore aims at giving the employees the best working conditions given the circumstances and making sure that they stay safe as much as possible while delivering help. As such, American Red Cross buys the best equipment and vehicles to help the employees as well as volunteers in humanitarian work to get to sites of disasters in the shortest time possible and safely. This is why the company has invested in top notch ambulances that have lifesaving equipment that may be used by the employees to save lives in an occurrence of a disaster.
As indicated above, funds that are used by the organization to finance its operations as well as management are received from state and federal government, and international organizations as grants or from the public as donations. Often times, the funders wish to know how the funds that they give out the cause of saving human lives through humanitarian assistance is used (Schnupp & Möller 2018). The organization therefore posts its official budget on its official website where it can be accessed by all people. In the last 5 years, the donations have been on the rise and this is a good indicator that the people who fund the organizations are happy about how the money they give to it is being used.
One of the key strengths in the company is the manner in which the employees relate with each other and the organization at large. The organization appreciates the selflessness of the people working there. As such, employee retreats are held.

Article I Journal Title: Achieving consumer trust on Twitter via CSR communication
The research seeks to establish means that can be used by companies to relay information on corporate social responsibility on social media platforms particularly twitter in an effective manner. It suggests that the involvement of the consumers and the consumer’s own processing mechanisms have a very vital role in so far as an evaluation of the trustworthiness of the companies is concerned.
The topic explored is very relevant since we have seen a continuous trend where various organizations are becoming more and more under pressure when it comes to communicating organizational policies and organizational positions as pertains to corporate social responsibility (CSR). Every market segment needs to be informed about the organization’s good intentions as well as actions so as to have an impression that the corporation is trustworthy. This implies that the market demand that their corporations engage them through dialogue. Notably, the existing academic literature does not have empirical research that seeks to examine impact of asymmetric versus symmetric communication strategies to the consumers.
Research Questions
i. Which strategies have corporations used in communication with their stakeholders about social corporate responsibility initiatives?
ii. Which of the two communication strategies, asymmetric communication and symmetric communication is more effective?
iii. What is the role of stakeholder’s personal information processing mechanisms when it comes to evaluation of trustworthiness of corporations?
Hypothesis
The first hypothesis (H1) states: Asymmetric vs. symmetric CSR communication strategies will have differing impacts on consumer trust in the organization. The second hypothesis (H2) states: Consumer trust is higher among the consumers with high involvement (those being a “green” consumer in symmetric communication.
Considering the hypotheses, it clearly emerges that they are closely linked to the study questions. The formulated questions point into integrated communication approach as used in organizations with particular attention being paid to the relevance of the communication approached to corporate social responsibility. They further go on to address and draw parallels between innovative approaches such as symmetric and asymmetric communication techniques and their impacts on the stakeholders. The above are further captured in the hypotheses especially when we look at the consumer concerns about an organization’s initiatives on social corporate responsibility. For instance, scepticism green consumers have on CSR been capture by H2. Generally, green consumers are very much conscious about the environmental impacts of their purchase as we.

Self-Injurious Behavior
For this final assignment a research of self-injurious behavior has been conducted. Self-injurious behavior, also known as SIB, is described an instance of behavior that results in physical injury to a person’s own body. SIB includes head banging, using objects to cut or puncture self, pinching self, consuming inedible substances, vomiting, pulling own hair, sucking, biting, scratching body parts and use of drugs, among others (Yang, 2003). SIB, is usually displayed by individuals with autism and intellectual disabilities. SIB can result in serious injuries and in severe cases even death. According to Yang (2003), the treatment of SIB has become one of the most serious issues for clinicians and other professionals due to the injury, risk, prevalence, and cost involved.
Article 1
Overview
The first article discussed is "Combination of extinction and protective measures in the treatment of severely self-injurious behavior" by Lizen Yang from Behavioral interventions journal. Yang explores and discusses the advantages of using extinction in conjunction with the non-intrusive protective measures to treat SIB. In the study, extinction in combination with non-intrusive protective measures was selected as the intervention strategy to reduce SIB.
Subjects and setting
The study was conducted on two adolescent females with profound mental retardation and physical disabilities at a state facility. Both subjects exhibited self-injurious behavior (SIB) and had been wearing restrains mechanisms for more than two years to prevent injuries. The treatment sessions were conducted in the morning for one of the subjects and in the afternoon for the other subject in a multipurpose 12’ x 13’room in their residential building. The room contained a table, a desk, and three chairs. Fingernail clippers, a pair of scissors, and a bottle of white petroleum jelly were used, since the target behavior for both subjects was scratching. There was a radio playing soft music at a moderate volume during sessions. There also were several audio and visual activity materials available and placed on the table within the participants’ reach at all times during treatment. During sessions, only the therapist and the participant were in the room.
Design and results
Event recording was used to collect data during each 30 minute treatment session. Two hand held counters were used to record the target behavior. In order to constantly analyze data, and monitor the behavior, as well as avoiding possible medical concerns, each treatment session was divided into three 10 minute intervals. Initially a within-subject reversal design was in which baseline (A) and treatment (B) were alternated in an ABAB sequence, but due to frequent and severe self-injuries and for safety reas.

Abstract
The concept of trusted computing has been in existence for a very long time. It has had an influence on security systems and solutions. In this paper, I will explain the history of TCB. Ways to implement trusted base computing. I will also explain some of the barriers and how to bypass them.
Introduction
The trusted computing base contains hardware, firmware and software that are essential in establishing as well as maintaining security. Moreover, it also includes an operating system with all specific system hardware, in-built security control, software and network hardware, (Ranganathan, 2017). When designing a trusted computing base provision such as access control, giving privileges, user authentication support, authorization of particular processes or systems, backing up information and protection against viruses and malware. It is the responsibility of a trusted computing base to maintain the integrity and confidentiality of information. It monitors the input and output operations.
History
In December 1985, the United States Department of Defense put out the trusted computing system evaluating criteria that well-defined TCB. TCB can be understood when it performs as a centralized, trusted entity, (Scott-Nash, et al., 2016). The structures that get the uppermost level security accredited and certification have a centralized system design. The TCSEC accepted the view of peer trusted nodes describing them as members of the NTCB which protects the network system including the firmware, software and hardware. This combination is responsible for enforcing a security policy.
How is the model implemented?
TCB contains four security mechanisms, including authentication and identification, auditing, labelling and security policy. In order to understand how TCB is implemented and work. Let’s take the example of a bank—one of the most trusted icons in society today. When we make deposits, the money is recorded and safeguarded. It will be available when we want it back. We hardly consider the security mechanism in the back since we trust the banking system. All the mechanisms of TCB are in place. Before withdrawing money from the account, one is required to identify and authenticate themselves to the teller with the account number and signature. There is also discretionary access control that is who is authorized to withdraw money from the account. There are very few clerical problems since all the transactions that take place are audited. In development, the environment has to enforce the security model. Other concepts that are used when developing TCB include memory protection and handle, (Noorman, et al., 2019). This falls under the NIST requirement for assurance. When implementing TCB, it is essential to ensure that the application meets the basic requirements of NIST.

Abstract
Many organizations and enterprises have adopted the practice of storage of data in the cloud as it is fast, efficient and reliable. It has eliminated the challenge of loss of data and made it easier to retrieve data. Enterprises are therefore able to thrive in the current era where clients require their needs to be met quickly and in their desired timing. However it is faced with the challenge of security, many do not understand their responsibility of making sure that the data is secure. The storage of data in the clouds has decentralized the IT department because in most cases they are not in control of the data due to the ease of access to the various cloud service providers, different departments within an enterprise which have different service providers. The security mechanisms are not comprehensive to cater to all the service providers. Requiring one to use multiple security measures. Hence there exist several loopholes that can be exploited by criminals impairing the steady operations of the victims. Imposing security on the cloud requires that a mechanism is put in place to not only protect but also detect the threats. This will help in planning how to counter react to any possible threat. It does also ensure that there is a study of the trends of such crimes.

USA, The Land of Unlimited Possibilities...
An argument for the return of our humanity
Students name
University -
Journey with me into a land of possibilities: imagine, if you
will, that you are in bad condition, really bad condition, due to
no fault of your own: a life or death situation. You happened to
have been in the wrong place at the wrong time; a place you
actually didn’t have any say about being at in the first place.
You are bleeding, mangled, in unspeakable pain, perhaps even
lost a limb or two. Fortuitous for you, you are in America! You
are in the hands of an educated, legally acknowledged medical
provider that has the knowledge, ability, and has sworn to
provide medical care to all. Presumptively, this person has the
skills to save your life. But, they don’t. You are just left there:
cold, naked, and bleeding; you are left there to die. You have
been “deemed unviable” and therefore they are not required to
administer health care – let alone any life-saving medical care
(Smith).
Not in the USA, you may say; that’s not legal under our noble
constitution! Our agencies of humanity preach respect for all
life; our progressive, understanding, “all lives matter”
government would not allow such a thing. That simply does not
happen in one of the most advanced medical systems in the
world! Think again.
On February 25, 2019, the United States Senate voted “to block
consideration of a measure” that would enable legal charges to
be brought against any medical professional that does nothing to
2. help a child that was born alive after a failed abortion (DeBonis
& Sonmez, 2019). This is the U. S. A.; this is the “land of
unlimited possibilities” where brand new babies are abandoned
to die (H., n.d.). The bill, S.311 - Born-Alive Abortion
Survivors Protection Act presented by Senator Ben Sasse, did
not receive the required “60 votes to proceed” (DeBonis &
Sonmez, 2019; 116th Congress, 2019). The bill reads as
follows: “Any infant born alive after an abortion or within a
hospital, clinic, or other facility has the same claim to the
protection of the law that would arise for any newborn, or for
any person who comes to a hospital, clinic, or other facility for
screening and treatment or otherwise becomes a patient within
its care” (116th Congress, 2019). This bill outlined the
“requirements for health care practitioners,” the expectation of
“reporting of violations,” and the possible penalties that
violators could face (116th Congress, 2019). If one examines
the social contract that is the constitutional rights given citizens
of the United States to life, the philosophical and psychological
necessities to maintain human dignity and what it means to be
human, and the natural rights that humanity expects humans to
give other humans, then one will come to the conclusion that
the bill, S.311 - Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act
needs to pass, but also should be seen as ethically fundamental
to maintaining the social construct of our nation.
The obligation of the humans living within the borders of the
United States of America to deem unjust and punish acts of
murder by neglect is philosophically universal. The basic right
to life is recognized as given to all citizens of the United States
via its very own Constitution. Article 14, section 1of the Bill of
Rights states that “all persons born . . . in the United States . . .
are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they
reside. No State shall . . . deprive any person of life, liberty . . .
nor deny to any person . . . equal protection of the laws”
(Constitution). This makes the abandonment of newly born
babies by anyone, let alone educated and legally acknowledged
medical providers, an ethical and legal degradation of the
3. society of the United States of America and an offense to all
who are living under the social contract that is the USA. The
Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy explains that an
individual’s “moral and/or political obligation” to the society
that they are a populous of is often regulated by an agreement,
written and/or oral, known as the theoretical “social contract”
(Friend, n.d.). This is such a fundamental understanding of
societies that the legendary philosopher Socrates argued in
support of why this is so. He proclaimed that the laws of the
land in which one resides is the contractual agreement that the
person accepts by the mere fact that the person has chosen to be
living within that land (Plato, n.d., p. 42- 47). Socrates staked
his own life on this obligation to the society that one is born
into, educated by, protected within, or is otherwise chosen to be
a part of by the act of living within it (Plato, n.d., p. 40- 47). In
the writings by Plato in Socrates’ Defense (n.d.), Socrates said
“But wrong-doing and defiance of one's superiors, whether god
or man, that I know to be evil and shameful” (p. 26, Line 29b).
Socrates is stating that acts of social disobedience are unjust
and unethical. These acts of “wrong-doing and defiance of one's
superiors” are still considered ethically questionable, and often
punishable, even with in our modern society. The United States
was founded within this principle of social obligation. The
second paragraph of the Declaration of Independence (1776), in
which the social contractual agreement that the United States of
America is based, reads: “We hold these truths to be self-
evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by
their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these
are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.” John Locke, a
famous philosopher of the seventeenth century whose views on
politics and ethics were radical in his time and yet has become
“commonplace and widely accepted,” declared in his Second
Treatise of Government (1821) that the reason mankind unites
“into common-wealths [sic] and [puts] themselves under
government" (p. 6, sect. 124) is for the preservation of their
lives, liberty, wealth, and general well-being (Connoly, n.d.; p.
4. 7, sect. 95-98). Even within the USA, it doesn’t take but the
mere effort of looking around and listening to the people to
realize that the individuals that reside within its borders expect
protection and provisions from the government they are under.
John Stuart Mills, a distinguished philosopher of the nineteenth
century, eloquently defended the utilitarianism way of life. This
predominantly atheistic view preached a political orientation
that rejected the concept of social contract and believed that
laws and policies should be based upon the happiness of the
individual. Even within this mindset, there is an expectation
that the individual owes obedience to its society especially
when it comes to the conduct between the individuals within
said society. In On Liberty, he wrote “... every one [sic] who
receives the protection of society owes a return for the benefit,
and the fact of living in society renders it indispensable that
each should be bound to observe a certain line of conduct
towards the rest” (p. 69). He is acknowledging that actions of
anyone within a society are morally right or wrong dependent
upon their effects “towards the rest” (pg. 69) and he goes on to
acknowledge that it is “necessary that general rules should for
the most part be observed” (pg. 71). Even under this
individualistic way of doing society, it is understood that, “as
soon as any part of a person’s conduct affects prejudicially the
interests of others, society has jurisdiction over it” and the
offender “may then be justly punished” (Mills,1859, p. 69). The
act of refusing medical care is a socially and legally recognized
act of injury to a member of the society known as the United
States, and even Mills acknowledges that such infractions are
not acceptable. To be a human, that can be happy within a
society, is to know and accept that there are crimes that should
be and will be punished.
The obligation of the humans living within the borders of the
United States of America to reject murder by neglect is a
philosophically universal necessity, if they are to maintain their
human dignity. Human dignity, as explained by Internet
Encyclopedia of Philosophy, is “a foundational commitment to
5. human value or human status” that is discussed and debated in
several fields of intellectual conversations (Bos, n.d., par. 1).
Philosophical attitudes toward human dignity underscore the
distinctive uniqueness that is a living persons and that this
solidary fact calls for definite, inflexible, ethical criterion (Bos,
n.d., sec. b.i., par. 2). John Stuart Mills, in his utilitarian
perception of a society, his live and let live ideology, validated
the justice in valuing human life. Mills expresses this sentiment
for individuals to act when injustice has occurred when he
states “acts, of whatever kind, which, without justifiable cause,
do harm to others, may be, and in the more important cases
absolutely require to be, controlled by the unfavourable [sic]
sentiments, and, when needful, by the active interference of
mankind” (1859, p. 52). Mills argued that every individual has
the ability to make a choice and this is a basic aspect to being
human. Within this ability to choose, Mills explains that “all
human beings have this sense [of dignity] in one form or
another, and how strongly a person has it is roughly
proportional to how well endowed he is with the higher
faculties” (Mills, 1861, p. 6). The rational, reasonable human
acknowledges the dignity within every human and should
respond accordingly by deliberately choosing to be happy
within the actions that do no harm to others. Mills asserts that
one’s choice and dignity should never be taken away from them
unless that liberty infringes on the liberty to life and dignity of
another human being (Mills, 1861). This sentiment is echoed
even within the existentialist philosophy of the
twentieth century French philosopher, Jean-Paul Sartre. In his
lecture titled “Existentialism Is a Humanism,” he declared that
“Man simply is” claiming that mankind exists to create his
purpose (1946, p. 3). He defends the existentialist theory as
being the only theory “compatible with the dignity of man”
explaining that existentialism denies the “kinds of materialism
[that] leads one to treat every man including oneself as an
object” and promotes the power and humanity within the
absolute freedom and responsibility of choice (1946, p. 9). Even
6. within this only me and only now philosophy, the most
important aspect of personal integrity and the backbone of being
human is authenticity; the obligation of each and every person
to rationally, judiciously, and logically analyze the social
circumstances and hold themselves accountable for the choices
made in the situations. Sartre would acknowledge that each and
every one of us is responsible for the irrational justification of
murder by abandonment; “one thing which permits him to have
life is the deed” (1946, p. 8). He pulls no punches in outlining
the position of an individual that refuses this responsibility:
“Since we have defined the situation of man as one of free
choice, without excuse and without help, any man who takes
refuge behind the excuse of his passions, or by inventing some
deterministic doctrine, is a self-deceiver” (Sartre, 1946, p. 10).
Another influential twentieth century political philosopher John
Rawls wrote in his first book, A Theory of Justice (1971), about
his conception of how a proper society could go about “defining
the fundamental terms of their association” as he renovated the
social-contract idea (Rawls, pg. 207; Richardson, n.d.). His
writings explain the fundamental necessity that individuals must
maintain their humanity, must recognize that human life is
valuable within itself, and that the ideal social structure must
“accept certain moral principles” while setting aside all of the
preconceived ideas and expectations that one would have with
their society (Rawls, 1971, pg. 211). The first of the “two
principles of justice” that he purposes as necessary asserts
“each person is to have an equal right to the most extensive
basic liberty compatible with a similar liberty for others”
(Rawls, 1971, pg. 213). What human doesn’t recognize their
liberty to life? In America, the human infants that have survived
an abortion procedure don’t have that liberty.
The obligation of the humans living within the borders of the
United States of America to uphold the natural rights of humans
and to give that same natural right to other humans is a
philosophically universal. Socrates championed “living well and
finely and justly” as being the truest state of being human, and
7. recognized the sanctity of life in all even when some harm or
suffrage is perceived as received from the other (Plato, n.d., p.
42-43). The founding fathers of the United States believed that
life is a right that is unquestionable: “We hold these truths to be
self-evident . . . all men . . . are endowed . . . with certain
unalienable Rights . . . Life” (Declaration of Independence,
1776). Locke asserted that natural law obligates all of humanity
to a standard of respect for all human life; “no one ought to
harm another in his life” (Locke, 1821, p. 1). Mills defended
life, particularly new human life, as being “the most responsible
actions in the range of human life” (1859, p. 99) that an adult
can take on, and declared that it would take a mindset that is
completely void of morality to make choices without “paying
[any] regard to others” (1861, p. 23). Sartre’s perspective on
life culminates on the individual’s ability to live, to choose, and
to do. It would be unthinkable to Sartre that someone would
strip another human being of the opportunity to find his own
purpose; “life is nothing until it is lived” (1946, p. 10). Rawls’
justice is grounded in blind fairness. Life’s value is an
elemental part of the nature of being human; every individual
instinctively values his own life. “The intuitive idea is that
since everyone's well-being depends upon a scheme of
cooperation without which no one could have a satisfactory
life,” is his way of saying that living in a mindset of
togetherness is the only way for the individual to truly live a
good life (1971, p.210). In the mist of everything that these
great minds cannot agree on, the significance of the life of any
individual human is a prevalent notion that is undeniable.
On February 26, 2019, Denise Grady for the New York Times
and Anna North for Vox.com reported on some of the ongoing
claims by the antagonist of the bill that Senator Sasse authored,
the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act. They
explained that two of the reoccurring rebuttals are that this bill
is needless “because a similar law already exists” and that
“infants are rarely born alive after abortion procedures, and if
they are, doctors do not kill them.”
8. The law that they are pointing to is based upon the Born-Alive
Infants Protection Act of 2002 that was signed into law by
President George W. Bush. This bill set out to amend the
federal document “1U.S.C.” to include the parameters of what is
acknowledged as “words denoting number, gender, and so forth”
to include “born-alive infant” and to define what is meant by
“born-alive infant” in order to give recognition of the social
status of these children born within the United States (107th
Congress; United). This bill clearly states that “nothing in this
section shall be construed to affirm, deny, expand, or contract
any legal status or legal right applicable to any member of the
species homo sapiens at any point prior to being `born alive' as
defined in this section” (107th Congress). The bill merely
declared what is legally recognized as a “human being,” a
“person”. This bill however did not carry any legal disciplinary
action upon medical providers who do not administer proper
care nor did it detail what type of treatments would be expected.
The expectation was that it was not needed. There are others
laws and regulations that are supposed to be the guidelines as to
what should, or could, happen to those that are responsible for
ending the life of another human being. Even the ethical
promise of educated physicians caries no weight in the favor of
life. The modern version of the Physician's Oath no longer
contains any “promise by the physician to “do no harm” or
never give a “lethal medicine” as it was in the original
Hippocratic Oath” (Hajar, 2017). Every decision that a
physician makes, acts upon, is responsible for and is supposed
to fall under the signed consent of the patient (Hajar, 2017).
Yet, year after year the continual manipulation of legal jargon
has allowed some medical providers to disregard the
expectations that most Americans have regarding the physician's
oath and legally get away with murder. The dying infant does
not have the ability to consent: physically or legally. According
to American law, that right is left to the parents. There are laws
and agencies that are supposed to intervene when the parent or
guardian is deliberately or passively allowing harm to come to
9. any child. And yet, our society condones the murder of the
innocent in the name of convince. The medical providers that
are present at the time of an infant that is born alive and
choosing to set the child aside knowing that they will pass away
without any medical intervention is not only allowed to do so,
but is socially defended by some to be an acceptable action. The
Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act is necessary not
because there aren’t already legal provisions for such
protections; the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act
is necessary because there needs to be stronger parameters
placed upon individuals who breach the laws that protect life.
The claim that failed abortions resulting in an infant that is born
alive happen so infrequently and that it is not an act of killing
that these doctors are doing by their neglect are valid enough to
warrant the disposal of the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors
Protection Act is defended by Denise Grady specifically.
Sartre -- “There is no such thing as a cowardly temperament ...
A coward is defined by the deed that he has done.” “there
cannot be any other truth than this, I think, therefore I am,
which is the absolute truth of consciousness as it attains to
itself.”
The bill S.311 - Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act
presented by Senator Ben Sasse should not need to be
necessary. The basic understanding that there is a natural value
within
did not receive the required “60 votes to proceed” (DeBonis &
Sonmez, 2019; 116th Congress, 2019). The bill reads as
follows: “Any infant born alive after an abortion or within a
hospital, clinic, or other facility has the same claim to the
protection of the law that would arise for any newborn, or for
any person who comes to a hospital, clinic, or other facility for
screening and treatment or otherwise becomes a patient within
its care” (116th Congress, 2019). If one examines the
constitutional rights given citizens of the United States to life,
10. the philosophical and psychological expectations of what it
means to be human, and the natural rights that humanity expects
humans to give other humans, then one will come to the
conclusion that this bill needed to not only pass but is ethically
fundamental to maintaining the social construct of our nation.
