The difference in Athens and Sparta represents to me one of their rare times in history when a Monarchy gave its citizens more rights than a democracy. Athens became a democracy after the fall of its monarch in 594 BCE. Athens then became a direct democracy where the majority of its citizens had a direct voice in Government and would elect persons each year to govern and make decisions. Athens also promoted education, culture, art, and philosophy and they were the main tenants of Athenian life. Sparta however was a monarchy/oligarchy while also being a meritocracy. Sparta was intensely focused on military might and every male citizen was expected to serve as a solider in this army. The spartan kings were from two families and had equal authority in terms of rule and would both serve as generals in the spartan army. Unlike Athens, warfare was the main tenant of spartan society and was the base of its economy. Rights in Sparta were also given to women and non-citizens who lived in the city. Women were allowed to vote in the Apella and non-citizens were allowed to serve in the spartan army, although in a support role. Spartans would be given wives and land once they reached the age of 30. This makes me wonder how many spartan men lived to be that old respond to this discussion question in 100 words .

QuestionDiscuss the political systems of Athens and Sparta. Why.docx
Question:
Discuss the political systems of Athens and Sparta. Why was there such a wide difference between the two city-states? How did the treatment of women differ between Athens and Sparta? Which do you believe gave their citizens more freedom and participation in government
Answer:
Good evening class,
Both Athens and Sparta had very different political views. Athens had the view that they would be a very open and mostly free political system. They believed that Athenians were their own rulers. They debated and made laws based on an assembly or gathering and everyone had a voice or opinion, much like a democracy. The Athenians did have duties, however. They had to serve in the military, pay taxes, obey laws and regulations, and even serve on the jury for legal matters. If an Athenian broke a law, many times they could be ostracized.
The Spartans, however had a different way to run things. Their main goal was to have a strong army, and the way they accomplished this was by forcing every male to join. At birth, babies that were seen as unfit for duty would be left for dead. At age 7, boys would leave home to live in the barracks. During this time, they would train, they would make their own clothes, feed themselves, and learn to really fend for themselves. At age 20, they left for the army. They would most of the time get married at this age as well, although they had to stay in the barracks until age 30, while their wives would stay home and take care of everything. They would then stay in the army until age 60, and when they had to go to battle, they would leave without any question. This made them the fiercest army at that time.
They both also had very different views on how they treated their women. Since the Spartans were gone at war all of the time, the women were in charge of most things. Although they could not vote or hold any kind of office, they could own land and attend court. They owned the majority of land in Sparta and married at 18 years old, which was older than most other Greek women. Spartan women were actually known for standing up to their husbands, and husbands would always obey their wives. The Athenians were the complete opposite though, as women were expected to stay home and cook, clean, and wove cloth. If men had guests over, the women would hide and not be seen. If women left the house, they had to be completely covered up.
I definitely believe that Athenians let their citizens participate in government more and gave them more freedom. Aside from having a strong army, the Spartans were pretty controlled, and their life was known to be bland.
Best regards,
Chance

What's the paper about?
As Dr. Appiah discussed in class today, for this final paper, you're being given a wide latitude to write an in-depth, argumentative essay on the subject of your choosing. The only limitations are that (1) it must be about gender, human rights, or economic inequality, either in a national or international context, and (2) it must include some of the philosophical thought of at least two of the traditions we've covered (Confucian, Islamic, or "Western"/Liberal).
How will I be grading it?
I will use the same rubric I used to evaluate the midterm papers for this essay. You can consult your midterm papers for details on this.
Where do I start?
Here are a few pointers on how to get started. (None of what I say here is
necessary
for the paper, just suggestions).
1. Start with a specific human right or moral claim. The
UDHR
is a great place to begin.
2. Pick a human right. For example, the UDHR guarantees the right to freedom of religion.
3. Pick two or three of the traditions we've covered. In my case, I'd compare, say, a liberal perspective on freedom of religion and an Islamic perspective on freedom of religion.
4. Formulate a thesis. For example, "in this paper, I will argue that freedom of religion, conceived of as a human right guaranteed in the UDHR, is both (a) a non-negotiable element of human dignity and (b) incompatible with basic Koranic obligations and the Islamic tradition of commanding and forbidding." This thesis should be
argumentative
. You ought to take a stand, and argue in favor of one perspective's interpretation or for your own new perspective. Papers that simply list what each tradition would say on an issue would be inadequate. In formulating your thesis, remember that the narrower your thesis, the easier it will be to defend. Narrow theses are the bread and butter of philosophy papers!
5. Assemble the textual support for this thesis. Go through the syllabus and compile each of the articles that we've covered that is relevant to this thesis - both the required and supplemental readings.
6. Reference your notes for broad outlines of arguments that are relevant to your thesis. In this case, I'd want to use at least Kant, Rawls, and Singer to put together an argument for (a) above, and Cook's work to put together the argument for (b) above.
7. As you're putting together these arguments, refer back to the texts we've covered t.
The CRM implementation of the project has been underway for 3 months.docx
The CRM implementation of the project has been underway for 3 months. Ben has been reviewing the invoices from the IT vendor that is providing design and programming services for the CRM implementation. Ben is working with this vendor on a number of different projects, and there are a handful of people that work on multiple projects for him, including the CRM implementation. He just told you that there are some problems with the invoices, and he is not sure what to do about them.
George is working on the CRM implementation and 2 other smaller projects. His hours look okay when Ben first looks at them. However, when Ben adds up George's hours for the past month across all 3 projects, they total more than 65 hours per week. Ben knows that George is barely on-site more than 4 hours per day and does not feel that George is producing anything close to 65 hours of work.
Two hours per day were billed for Louise for 1 week when she was on vacation. As far as Ben knows, Louise was not invited to any project conference calls nor was there any critical project e-mails sent to her during that time.
The rate for Betsy increased by 15% half-way through the second invoice. No explanation was given.
Nothing was billed for Ron his entire first month on the project.

THE CRISIS: A DECADE LATER
Lehman’s Last Hires Look
Back
Four people who started at Lehman Brothers the day it
failed reflect on the lessons they’ve learned.
By Corrie Driebusch
September 15, 2008, was one of the darkest days in the
history of Wall Street. For four new college graduates,
it was also their first day of work at Lehman Brothers
Holdings Inc.
Sohil Sheth, Luvleen Sidhu, Justin Gaines and Brian
Grossman walked through the doors of Lehman just as
the venerable investment bank filed for bankruptcy
protection, an event that sent shockwaves around the
globe. The aftershocks continue to define many aspects
of American life a decade later.
The crisis provided these unlucky millennials with a
new perspective. Big institutions were no longer
infallible. Wall Street no longer offered a guaranteed
career path. Life was more fragile than they knew.
One thing was certain: Their world would never again
look the same.Sohil Sheth

Works for Boston technology firm Harding Point
My junior year at Amherst, everyone was trying to get
an internship in New York at a bank, and I got one with
Lehman’s investment management division. All we
heard from executives was that Lehman was going to
be the next Goldman Sachs.
The summer of 2008 I moved to New York for training.
I was definitely getting nervous that maybe they would
start laying people off. But the messaging at Lehman
was ‘don’t worry.’ There’s no way the government
would let anything happen to a company as big as
Lehman.
I was preparing for a licensing exam in my apartment
on Sunday, Sept. 14, and there was a new news story
every minute. I refreshed my computer browser and all
a sudden there was a headline that Lehman declares
bankruptcy. I got that feeling in the pit of my stomach.
The next day we all went in to work, but everyone was a
zombie.
I kept working there, but this cloud was hanging over
us. I worked in the fund of hedge funds group for two
and a half years, but then got super jaded. I went to
Peru and worked for a nonprofit for almost a year.
A decade ago I defended the finance industry. Looking
back, it’s tough to be socially conscious and work in it.
I’m not saying tech is saving the world, but there’s
more practical applications that can apply to a lot of
people than just making the rich richer.Luvleen Sidhu
Co-founded digital banking startup BankMobile
I interned at Lehman after my sophomore and junior
years at Harvard. I graduated in 2008 and started six
weeks of training, and the first day on the job was the
bankruptcy. I remember contacting HR and I asked,
should I come in? I’ve locked the response in my head
because it was so unusual. The response was, ‘please
come in, it’s business as usual.’
My first day was kind of crazy, in an eerie way that we
were ignoring reality. No one was acting panicked. No
one was acting out of line, though maybe they were
behind closed doors.
For it to happen the first day of my car.

The Criminalization of American BusinessWhat do Bank of Americ.docx
The Criminalization of American Business
What do Bank of America, Citigroup, JPMorgan Chase, and Goldman Sachs have in common? All paid hefty fines for purportedly misleading investors about mortgage-backed securities. In fact, these companies paid the government a total of $50 billion in fines. The payments were made in lieu of criminal prosecutions.
Today, several hundred thousand federal rules that apply to businesses carry some form of criminal penalty. That is in addition to more than four thousand federal laws, many of which carry criminal sanctions for their violation. From 2000 to 2019, about 3,200 corporations either were convicted or pleaded guilty to violating federal statutes or rules.
Criminal Convictions
The first successful criminal conviction in a federal court against a company—the New York Central and Hudson River Railroad—was upheld by the Supreme Court in 1909 (the violation: cutting prices). Many other successful convictions followed.
One landmark case developed the
aggregation test
, now called the Doctrine of Collective Knowledge. This test aggregates the omissions and acts of two or more persons in a corporation, thereby constructing an
actus reus
and a
mens rea
out of the conduct and knowledge of several individuals.
Not all government attempts at applying criminal law to corporations survive. Courts have sometimes found insufficient evidence to show that a company acted with specific intent to commit a crime. Often, however, companies choose to reach settlement agreements with the government rather than fight criminal indictments.
Many Pay Substantial Fines in Lieu of Prosecution
More than four hundred corporations reached so-called non-prosecution agreements with the government from 2000 to the beginning of 2019. These agreements typically involve multimillion- or multibillion-dollar fines. This number does not include fines paid to the Environmental Protection Agency or to the Fish and Wildlife Service.
According to law professors Margaret Lemos and Max Minzner, “Public enforcers often seek large monetary awards for self-interested reasons divorced from the public interest and deterrents. The incentives are strongest when enforcement agencies are permitted to retain all or some of the proceeds of enforcement.”
Questions Presented
1)Why might a corporation’s managers agree to pay a large fine rather than to be indicted and proceed to trial?
2)How does a manager determine the optimal amount of legal research to undertake to prevent her or his company from violating the many thousands of federal regulations?

The Creation of the Ocean Floor
One scientific speculation about the beginning of ocean water declares that as Earth developed from a gas and dust cloud more than 4.5 billion years ago, an enormous quantity of insubstantial elements such as oxygen and hydrogen became confined inside the liquefied inner part of the newly formed planet (Advameg, 2013). In the course of the first few billion years following planets formation, these basic gases emerged across thousands of miles of red-hot and liquefying rock to discharge on the Earth’s surface through fissures (long narrow cracks) and volcanoes.
Inside the earth and atop the exterior, the gas hydrogen joined oxygen developing water. Massive amounts of liquid blanketed the planet as an extraordinarily heavy atmosphere of water cloud. Close to the uppermost part of the atmosphere, where high temperature may possibly dissipate to outward reaches of the earth, water vapor concentrated to a liquid form and dropped into the stratum below, chilling the level. This atmospheric cool down procedure lasted till the initial precipitation dropped to the planet’s young exterior and flared into a misty haze. This came to pass as the creation of an astonishing downpour that through the course of time, progressively filled the ocean cavities.
There are three major classes of tectonic plate boundaries: divergent boundaries, covergent boundaries, and transform boundaries. The divergent boundaries outstanding features are fresh crust is produced as two or more plates tear away from one other. Oceans are generated and grow broader where plates deviate or pull apart. Seafloor expanding is a process in which the molten rock produces new ground underneath water. This progression takes millions of years to establish a 10 foot hill because growth fluctuates from two to 10 centimeters yearly. The convergent boundaries outstanding features are here crust is demolished and reprocessed back into the inside of the Earth as one plate descents under another. These are recognized as Subduction Zones - volcanoes and mountains are often discovered where plates come together. The kinds of volcanoes that can occur depend on the chemical composition of the molten rock that decides its fluidity. There are three kinds of convergent boundaries: Oceanic-Continental Convergence, Oceanic-Oceanic Convergence, and Continental-Continental Convergence (Platetectonics, 2010). The transform boundaries outstanding features are when two plates are skimming parallel by each other. These are additionally identified as transform boundaries or in addition normally called faults. The San Andreas Fault is the best known and considered the most lethal translational line.
One natural event that occurs as a direct result of plate boundary interactions is a tsunami. Plate tectonics are the secondary trigger of tsunamis. When a maj.

ABSTRACT. Most of the attention in the last few decades in the human services field has been on the development of culturally competent practice with little attention to the context of this practice. This analysis and case study focuses on the organizational context of social service practitioners seeking to respond effectively to an increasingly diverse client population. Specific attention is given to the development of a working definition of a culturally responsive social service agency. This definition is used to assess a case study of a public sector county social service agency that has a substantial history in promoting culturally responsive practices. The implications for future management practices are noted in the conclusion.

INTRODUCTION
Since the War on Poverty in the 1960s, social service organizations have been searching for ways to become responsive to the cultural diversity of their client populations. Beginning in the 1970s, concerted attention was given to helping agency staff members become more culturally aware (Green, 1999), more culturally knowledgeable (Cox & Ephross, 1998; Davis & Proctor, 1989; Harrison & Wodarski, 1992), and recently more culturally competent (Devore & Schlesinger, 1999; Fong & Furuto, 2001; Leigh, 1998; Lum, 2003).

Question:
Discuss the political systems of Athens and Sparta. Why was there such a wide difference between the two city-states? How did the treatment of women differ between Athens and Sparta? Which do you believe gave their citizens more freedom and participation in government
Answer:
Good evening class,
Both Athens and Sparta had very different political views. Athens had the view that they would be a very open and mostly free political system. They believed that Athenians were their own rulers. They debated and made laws based on an assembly or gathering and everyone had a voice or opinion, much like a democracy. The Athenians did have duties, however. They had to serve in the military, pay taxes, obey laws and regulations, and even serve on the jury for legal matters. If an Athenian broke a law, many times they could be ostracized.
The Spartans, however had a different way to run things. Their main goal was to have a strong army, and the way they accomplished this was by forcing every male to join. At birth, babies that were seen as unfit for duty would be left for dead. At age 7, boys would leave home to live in the barracks. During this time, they would train, they would make their own clothes, feed themselves, and learn to really fend for themselves. At age 20, they left for the army. They would most of the time get married at this age as well, although they had to stay in the barracks until age 30, while their wives would stay home and take care of everything. They would then stay in the army until age 60, and when they had to go to battle, they would leave without any question. This made them the fiercest army at that time.
They both also had very different views on how they treated their women. Since the Spartans were gone at war all of the time, the women were in charge of most things. Although they could not vote or hold any kind of office, they could own land and attend court. They owned the majority of land in Sparta and married at 18 years old, which was older than most other Greek women. Spartan women were actually known for standing up to their husbands, and husbands would always obey their wives. The Athenians were the complete opposite though, as women were expected to stay home and cook, clean, and wove cloth. If men had guests over, the women would hide and not be seen. If women left the house, they had to be completely covered up.
I definitely believe that Athenians let their citizens participate in government more and gave them more freedom. Aside from having a strong army, the Spartans were pretty controlled, and their life was known to be bland.
Best regards,
Chance

Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC) enables you to launch AWS resources into a virtual network that you've defined. This virtual network closely resembles a traditional network that you'd operate in your own data center, with the benefits of using the scalable infrastructure of AWS.
To begin, the CEO would like you to provision two subnets.
One subnet will be for the developers (Subnet A), which will be provisioned with 146.38.70.105/20.
The second subnet will for the marketing department (Subnet B), which will be provisioned with 215.16.52.119/19.

And some additional info about the paper: (gratefully adapted from an email the other TA., Prof, Colebrook, send to students in his recitations)
What's the paper about?
As Dr. Appiah discussed in class today, for this final paper, you're being given a wide latitude to write an in-depth, argumentative essay on the subject of your choosing. The only limitations are that (1) it must be about gender, human rights, or economic inequality, either in a national or international context, and (2) it must include some of the philosophical thought of at least two of the traditions we've covered (Confucian, Islamic, or "Western"/Liberal).
How will I be grading it?
I will use the same rubric I used to evaluate the midterm papers for this essay. You can consult your midterm papers for details on this.
Where do I start?
Here are a few pointers on how to get started. (None of what I say here is
necessary
for the paper, just suggestions).
1. Start with a specific human right or moral claim. The
UDHR
is a great place to begin.
2. Pick a human right. For example, the UDHR guarantees the right to freedom of religion.
3. Pick two or three of the traditions we've covered. In my case, I'd compare, say, a liberal perspective on freedom of religion and an Islamic perspective on freedom of religion.
4. Formulate a thesis. For example, "in this paper, I will argue that freedom of religion, conceived of as a human right guaranteed in the UDHR, is both (a) a non-negotiable element of human dignity and (b) incompatible with basic Koranic obligations and the Islamic tradition of commanding and forbidding." This thesis should be
argumentative
. You ought to take a stand, and argue in favor of one perspective's interpretation or for your own new perspective. Papers that simply list what each tradition would say on an issue would be inadequate. In formulating your thesis, remember that the narrower your thesis, the easier it will be to defend. Narrow theses are the bread and butter of philosophy papers!
5. Assemble the textual support for this thesis. Go through the syllabus and compile each of the articles that we've covered that is relevant to this thesis - both the required and supplemental readings.
6. Reference your notes for broad outlines of arguments that are relevant to your thesis. In this case, I'd want to use at least Kant, Rawls, and Singer to put together an argument for (a) above, and Cook's work to put together the argument for (b) above.
7. As you're putting together these arguments, refer back to the texts we've covered t.
The CRM implementation of the project has been underway for 3 months.docx
The CRM implementation of the project has been underway for 3 months. Ben has been reviewing the invoices from the IT vendor that is providing design and programming services for the CRM implementation. Ben is working with this vendor on a number of different projects, and there are a handful of people that work on multiple projects for him, including the CRM implementation. He just told you that there are some problems with the invoices, and he is not sure what to do about them.
George is working on the CRM implementation and 2 other smaller projects. His hours look okay when Ben first looks at them. However, when Ben adds up George's hours for the past month across all 3 projects, they total more than 65 hours per week. Ben knows that George is barely on-site more than 4 hours per day and does not feel that George is producing anything close to 65 hours of work.
Two hours per day were billed for Louise for 1 week when she was on vacation. As far as Ben knows, Louise was not invited to any project conference calls nor was there any critical project e-mails sent to her during that time.
The rate for Betsy increased by 15% half-way through the second invoice. No explanation was given.
Nothing was billed for Ron his entire first month on the project.

THE CRISIS A DECADE LATERLehman’s Last Hires LookBack.docx
THE CRISIS: A DECADE LATER
Lehman’s Last Hires Look
Back
Four people who started at Lehman Brothers the day it
failed reflect on the lessons they’ve learned.
By Corrie Driebusch
September 15, 2008, was one of the darkest days in the
history of Wall Street. For four new college graduates,
it was also their first day of work at Lehman Brothers
Holdings Inc.
Sohil Sheth, Luvleen Sidhu, Justin Gaines and Brian
Grossman walked through the doors of Lehman just as
the venerable investment bank filed for bankruptcy
protection, an event that sent shockwaves around the
globe. The aftershocks continue to define many aspects
of American life a decade later.
The crisis provided these unlucky millennials with a
new perspective. Big institutions were no longer
infallible. Wall Street no longer offered a guaranteed
career path. Life was more fragile than they knew.
One thing was certain: Their world would never again
look the same.Sohil Sheth
Works for Boston technology firm Harding Point
Works for Boston technology firm Harding Point
My junior year at Amherst, everyone was trying to get
an internship in New York at a bank, and I got one with
Lehman’s investment management division. All we
heard from executives was that Lehman was going to
be the next Goldman Sachs.
The summer of 2008 I moved to New York for training.
I was definitely getting nervous that maybe they would
start laying people off. But the messaging at Lehman
was ‘don’t worry.’ There’s no way the government
would let anything happen to a company as big as
Lehman.
I was preparing for a licensing exam in my apartment
on Sunday, Sept. 14, and there was a new news story
every minute. I refreshed my computer browser and all
a sudden there was a headline that Lehman declares
bankruptcy. I got that feeling in the pit of my stomach.
The next day we all went in to work, but everyone was a
zombie.
I kept working there, but this cloud was hanging over
us. I worked in the fund of hedge funds group for two
and a half years, but then got super jaded. I went to
Peru and worked for a nonprofit for almost a year.
A decade ago I defended the finance industry. Looking
back, it’s tough to be socially conscious and work in it.
I’m not saying tech is saving the world, but there’s
more practical applications that can apply to a lot of
people than just making the rich richer.Luvleen Sidhu
Co-founded digital banking startup BankMobile
I interned at Lehman after my sophomore and junior
years at Harvard. I graduated in 2008 and started six
weeks of training, and the first day on the job was the
bankruptcy. I remember contacting HR and I asked,
should I come in? I’ve locked the response in my head
because it was so unusual. The response was, ‘please
come in, it’s business as usual.’
My first day was kind of crazy, in an eerie way that we
were ignoring reality. No one was acting panicked. No
one was acting out of line, though maybe they were
behind closed doors.
For it to happen the first day of my car.

The Criminalization of American BusinessWhat do Bank of Americ.docx
The Criminalization of American Business
What do Bank of America, Citigroup, JPMorgan Chase, and Goldman Sachs have in common? All paid hefty fines for purportedly misleading investors about mortgage-backed securities. In fact, these companies paid the government a total of $50 billion in fines. The payments were made in lieu of criminal prosecutions.
Today, several hundred thousand federal rules that apply to businesses carry some form of criminal penalty. That is in addition to more than four thousand federal laws, many of which carry criminal sanctions for their violation. From 2000 to 2019, about 3,200 corporations either were convicted or pleaded guilty to violating federal statutes or rules.
Criminal Convictions
The first successful criminal conviction in a federal court against a company—the New York Central and Hudson River Railroad—was upheld by the Supreme Court in 1909 (the violation: cutting prices). Many other successful convictions followed.
One landmark case developed the
aggregation test
, now called the Doctrine of Collective Knowledge. This test aggregates the omissions and acts of two or more persons in a corporation, thereby constructing an
actus reus
and a
mens rea
out of the conduct and knowledge of several individuals.
Not all government attempts at applying criminal law to corporations survive. Courts have sometimes found insufficient evidence to show that a company acted with specific intent to commit a crime. Often, however, companies choose to reach settlement agreements with the government rather than fight criminal indictments.
Many Pay Substantial Fines in Lieu of Prosecution
More than four hundred corporations reached so-called non-prosecution agreements with the government from 2000 to the beginning of 2019. These agreements typically involve multimillion- or multibillion-dollar fines. This number does not include fines paid to the Environmental Protection Agency or to the Fish and Wildlife Service.
According to law professors Margaret Lemos and Max Minzner, “Public enforcers often seek large monetary awards for self-interested reasons divorced from the public interest and deterrents. The incentives are strongest when enforcement agencies are permitted to retain all or some of the proceeds of enforcement.”
Questions Presented
1)Why might a corporation’s managers agree to pay a large fine rather than to be indicted and proceed to trial?
2)How does a manager determine the optimal amount of legal research to undertake to prevent her or his company from violating the many thousands of federal regulations?

The Creation of the Ocean Floor
One scientific speculation about the beginning of ocean water declares that as Earth developed from a gas and dust cloud more than 4.5 billion years ago, an enormous quantity of insubstantial elements such as oxygen and hydrogen became confined inside the liquefied inner part of the newly formed planet (Advameg, 2013). In the course of the first few billion years following planets formation, these basic gases emerged across thousands of miles of red-hot and liquefying rock to discharge on the Earth’s surface through fissures (long narrow cracks) and volcanoes.
Inside the earth and atop the exterior, the gas hydrogen joined oxygen developing water. Massive amounts of liquid blanketed the planet as an extraordinarily heavy atmosphere of water cloud. Close to the uppermost part of the atmosphere, where high temperature may possibly dissipate to outward reaches of the earth, water vapor concentrated to a liquid form and dropped into the stratum below, chilling the level. This atmospheric cool down procedure lasted till the initial precipitation dropped to the planet’s young exterior and flared into a misty haze. This came to pass as the creation of an astonishing downpour that through the course of time, progressively filled the ocean cavities.
There are three major classes of tectonic plate boundaries: divergent boundaries, covergent boundaries, and transform boundaries. The divergent boundaries outstanding features are fresh crust is produced as two or more plates tear away from one other. Oceans are generated and grow broader where plates deviate or pull apart. Seafloor expanding is a process in which the molten rock produces new ground underneath water. This progression takes millions of years to establish a 10 foot hill because growth fluctuates from two to 10 centimeters yearly. The convergent boundaries outstanding features are here crust is demolished and reprocessed back into the inside of the Earth as one plate descents under another. These are recognized as Subduction Zones - volcanoes and mountains are often discovered where plates come together. The kinds of volcanoes that can occur depend on the chemical composition of the molten rock that decides its fluidity. There are three kinds of convergent boundaries: Oceanic-Continental Convergence, Oceanic-Oceanic Convergence, and Continental-Continental Convergence (Platetectonics, 2010). The transform boundaries outstanding features are when two plates are skimming parallel by each other. These are additionally identified as transform boundaries or in addition normally called faults. The San Andreas Fault is the best known and considered the most lethal translational line.
One natural event that occurs as a direct result of plate boundary interactions is a tsunami. Plate tectonics are the secondary trigger of tsunamis. When a maj.

ABSTRACT. Most of the attention in the last few decades in the human services field has been on the development of culturally competent practice with little attention to the context of this practice. This analysis and case study focuses on the organizational context of social service practitioners seeking to respond effectively to an increasingly diverse client population. Specific attention is given to the development of a working definition of a culturally responsive social service agency. This definition is used to assess a case study of a public sector county social service agency that has a substantial history in promoting culturally responsive practices. The implications for future management practices are noted in the conclusion.

INTRODUCTION
Since the War on Poverty in the 1960s, social service organizations have been searching for ways to become responsive to the cultural diversity of their client populations. Beginning in the 1970s, concerted attention was given to helping agency staff members become more culturally aware (Green, 1999), more culturally knowledgeable (Cox & Ephross, 1998; Davis & Proctor, 1989; Harrison & Wodarski, 1992), and recently more culturally competent (Devore & Schlesinger, 1999; Fong & Furuto, 2001; Leigh, 1998; Lum, 2003).

cally acclaimed HBO series, Girls, Lena
Dunham’s character Hannah Horvath,
high on opium, tells her parents, “I don’t
want to freak you out, but I think that I
may be the voice of my generation—or
at least a voice of a generation.” The line
made waves as people conflated the fic-
tional character with her creator, perhaps
not wrongly. How dare a young woman
make such a bold claim? All too often our
culture tells young women their voices
don’t matter or deserve to be heard.
In her debut essay collection, Not That
Kind of Girl: A Young Woman Tells You
What She’s “Learned,” Dunham demon-
strates her 28-year-old voice’s admirable
range. While some celebrity essay col-
lections and memoirs are lackluster,
even embarrassing to read, Not That Kind
of Girl suffers few missteps. Dunham’s
cinematic flair translates to the page
with vigor and clarity—not unlike the
late Nora Ephron, to whom she is often
compared and to whom the book is
dedicated (along with Dunham’s family
and her boyfriend Jack Antonoff of the
indie-rock band fun.). Instead of tossing
pithy, pseudo-motivational observations
at the reader, Dunham has crafted warm,
intelligent writing that is both deeply
personal and engaging, clustered in five
topical sections: “Love & Sex,” “Body,”
“Friendship,” “Work” and “Big Picture.”
Each of the 29 pieces—essays mixed
with lists, like “18 Unlikely Things I’ve
Said Flirtatiously”—is confident and
assured, sidestepping self-deprecation
and instead offering intense self-
examination. Dunham’s self-awareness
can almost overwhelm with truthiness,
as in “Barry,” her glancing, tragicomic
account of being raped by a “mustachioed
campus Republican” who, among other
nonconsensual acts, removes his condom
without her permission or knowledge.
“A sexual encounter that no one can
classify properly” sounds precisely like
a voice of her generation, one struggling
to come to terms with rape culture.
(And yet, “I feel like there are fifty ways
it’s my fault . . . But I also know that at no
moment did I consent to being handled
that way” sounds like a voice of every
generation of women.)
Unlike Hannah Horvath, Dunham in
her self-awareness does not come across
as self-obsessed. When she is absurd,
she acknowledges that absurdity. “13
Things I’ve Learned Are Not Okay to
Say to Friends” is among the most drolly
enlightened of the lists, made up of osten-
sible real-life Dunham quotes like “No,
please don’t apologize. If I had your moth-
er I’d be a nightmare, too” and “There’s
nothing about you in my book.”
She reveals her vulnerabilities in
a deadpan manner, showing us how she
loves and has been loved, how she has
wronged and been wronged. But it’s not
all laughing around the hard stuff. At
the end of “Barry” comes a teary phone
call with Antonoff, in which she tells
him what happened with the hipster

(Received 3 January 2012; final version received 3 May 2012)
Although the so-called ‘CSI effect’ has received attention in the literature for the
influence of forensic science television on jurors’ expectations of evidence
admitted into trials, less research explores the influence of such television
programs on university students enrolled in forensic science degrees. This paper
describes the quantitative and qualitative results of a study of forensic science
students regarding the forensic-related television programs they watch, such as
CSI, Bones and Dexter. We asked students to share their impressions of the
accuracy, ethics, professionalism and role models in the programs. The results
show that forensic science students are almost universally disparaging about the
realism of these programs and have mixed impressions of how the programs
portray forensic science professionalism and ethics. Most students believed that
the programs gave an unrealistic representation of the profession to the public;
yet students were also able to identify positive elements for recruitment and
education purposes.

Introduction
Popular media have suggested that crime science television programs such as CSI
may influence how lay jurors consider forensic evidence during criminal trials1–8.
This influence has been described as the CSI effect and named after the popular
television drama. It is suggested that jurors confuse the capacity of forensic evidence
with the fictional idealisation of forensic evidence as portrayed on the television
program2. Goodman-Delahunty and Verbrugge4 suggest that, despite the popular
media claims, there is little objective evidence to support the notion that crime scene
dramas such as CSI have a negative impact on jury verdicts. Wise5 indicated that
there are two issues relating to the ‘CSI effect’ proposition, with each affecting either
the prosecution or defence position; (i) the jurors held an inflated value of the
forensic evidence producing guilty verdicts2–5,9, or (ii) in the absence of forensic
evidence or when the evidence failed to reach the juries’ idealised expectations the
juries would acquit2–3,5. Evidence of the influence of the CSI effect, as claimed in the
popular media, has been mixed1–9.
Although the so-called CSI effect has received attention in the literature for the
influence of CSI on jurors’ expectations of forensic evidence admitted into criminal

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

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

The difference in Athens and Sparta represents to me one.docx
- 1. The difference in Athens and Sparta represents to me one of their rare times in history when a Monarchy gave its citizens more rights than a democracy. Athens became a democracy after the fall of its monarch in 594 BCE. Athens then became a direct democracy where the majority of its citizens had a direct voice in Government and would elect persons each year to govern and make decisions. Athens also promoted education, culture, art, and philosophy and they were the main tenants of Athenian life. Sparta however was a monarchy/oligarchy while also being a meritocracy. Sparta was intensely focused on military might and every male citizen was expected to serve as a solider in this army. The spartan kings were from two families and had equal authority in terms of rule and would both serve as generals in the spartan army. Unlike Athens, warfare was the main tenant of spartan society and was the base of its economy. Rights in Sparta were also given to women and non-citizens who lived in the city. Women were allowed to vote in the Apella and non- citizens were allowed to serve in the spartan army, although in a support role. Spartans would be given wives and land once they reached the age of 30. This makes me wonder how many spartan men lived to be that old respond to this discussion question in 100 words
