After reading the
Cybersecurity Act of 2015
, address the private/public partnership with the DHS National Cybersecurity and Communications Integration Center (NCCIC), arguably the most important aspect of the act. The Cybersecurity Act of 2015 allows for private and public sharing of cybersecurity threat information.
What should the DHS NCCIC (public) share with private sector organizations? What type of threat information would enable private organizations to better secure their networks?
On the flip side, what should private organizations share with the NCCIC? As it is written, private organization sharing is completely voluntary. Should this be mandatory? If so, what are the implications to the customers' private data?
The government is not allowed to collect data on citizens. How should the act be updated to make it better and more value-added for the public-private partnership in regards to cybersecurity?

Children have always contributed to the total number of migrants crossing the southern border of the United States illegally, but in 2014, a steady overall increase in unaccompanied minors from Central America reached crisis proportions when tens of thousands of children from El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras crossed the Rio Grande and overwhelmed border patrols and local infrastructure (Dart 2014).
Since legislators passed the William Wilberforce Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act of 2008 in the last days of the Bush administration, unaccompanied minors from countries that do not share a border with the United States are guaranteed a hearing with an immigration judge where they may request asylum based on a “credible” fear of persecution or torture (U.S. Congress 2008). In some cases, these children are looking for relatives and can be placed with family while awaiting a hearing on their immigration status; in other cases, they are held in processing centers until the Department of Health and Human Services makes other arrangements (Popescu 2014).
The 2014 surge placed such a strain on state resources that Texas began transferring the children to Immigration and Naturalization facilities in California and elsewhere, without incident for the most part. On July 1, 2014, however, buses carrying the migrant children were blocked by protesters in Murrietta, California, who chanted, "Go home" and "We don’t want you.” (Fox News and Associated Press 2014; Reyes 2014).
A functional perspective theorist might focus on the dysfunctions caused by the sudden influx of underage asylum seekers, while a conflict perspective theorist might look at the way social stratification influences how the members of a developed country are treating the lower-status migrants from less-developed countries in Latin America. An interactionist theorist might see the significance in the attitude of the Murrietta protesters toward the migrant children.
Respond to the following questions in a 350-word essay using 12 point times new roman font double spaced: Given the fact that these children are fleeing various kinds of violence and extreme poverty, how should the U.S. government respond? Should the government pass laws granting a general amnesty? Or should it follow a zero-tolerance policy, automatically returning any and all unaccompanied minor migrants to their countries of origin so as to discourage additional immigration tha.

Delivering quality health care is dif�icult enough, given the complexities of technology, government regulations, evolving scienti�ic and medical understanding, and
the variability of human performance. It gets even more daunting when you add the challenges of communication among medical staff and between patients and
their caregivers, which often takes place under stressful circumstances. Those communication efforts are challenging enough in an environment where everyone
speaks the same language and feels at home in a single cultural context—but they’re in�initely more complex in the United States, whose residents identify with
dozens of different cultures and speak several hundred languages.
The Oakland-based health-care system Kaiser Permanente has been embracing the challenges and opportunities of diversity since its founding in 1945. It made a
strong statement with its very �irst hospital when it refused to follow the then-common practice of segregating patients by race. Now, as the largest not-for-pro�it
health system in the United States, Kaiser’s client base includes more than 10 million members from over 100 distinct cultures.
At the core of Kaiser’s approach is culturally competent care, which it de�ines as “health care that acknowledges cultural diversity in the clinical setting, respects
members’ beliefs and practices, and ensures that cultural needs are considered and respected at every point of contact.” These priorities.

Background
The research focuses on investigating leaders from highly rated managed care organizations based on their leadership practices in comparison to leaders from low rated managed care organizations. High rated organizations are managed care organizations who have attained either 4.5 or 5 Medicare Stars ratings whiles low ratings organizations are organizations who have attained 3 Stars or less.
The research design: Survey was sent to leaders from both high Medicare rated and low rated organizations. I believe I have enough sample size so the result will be significant. I have received 35 response from leaders from high rated organizations and 35 from low rated organizations (35 participants each responded, making 70 participants in total). The goal is to find out if there is a significant difference in leadership practice between leaders from highly rated organizations and low rated organizations.
The survey tool used is Leadership Practice Inventory (LPI), which has a total of 30 behavioral statements that reflect on the practices leaders regularly use in managing their organizations. The leaders were invited to complete the survey online. The 30 survey questions are grouped in 5 Models:
1. Model the Way
1. Inspire a Shared Vision
1. Challenge the Process
1. Enable Others to Act
1. Encourage the Heart
The participants completed the LPI self-test, where they must rate themselves depending on the frequency, which they believe in engaging in each of the five models. They rate themselves on a 10 point likert scale, below.
1-Almost Never
3-Seldom
5-Occasionally
7-Fairly Often
9-Very Frequently
2-Rarely
4-Once in a While
6-Sometimes
8-Usually
10-Almost always
1. Dependent Variable: Attaining high Overall Medicare Star Rating
1. Independent Variables:
1. Leadership practice Practices (Model the Way, Inspire a Shared Vision, Challenge the Process, Enable Others to Act, and Encourage the Heart)
1. Years of Experience
1. Leadership Style
Abbreviations meaning:
LP- Leadership Practice
MSR – Medicare Stars Ratings
MSROs – Medicare Stars Ratings Organizations
YoE – Years of Experience
The following hypotheses has been tested, analyzed (page 4-23). SPSS software was used for data analysis.
Hypothesis 1 - There is a significant difference in LP between leaders from high (4.5 or 5) MSROs and low (3 Stars or less) MSROs.
Hypothesis 2 – There is a strong relationship between MSRs and the LP of both high and low MSROs
Hypothesis 3 - In comparison to other 4 models (thus Model the Way, Challenge the Process, Enable Others to Act, Encourage the Hearts), practicing the “Inspire A Shared Vision” model is very significant in helping leaders influence the attainment of high MSR in MCOs.
Hypothesis 4 – The leaders’ leadership style contributes to a leader’s ability to influence the achievement of high Medicare ratings for MCO.
Hypothesis 5 – The Leaders’ of Years of Experience (YoE) is effective in enabling leaders influence the attainment o.

Interest Paper- Mental Health in Student Athletes
I am a communication major so must take this class to fulfill my requirements for the course, however, this class will set me up to understand the in-depth reasoning behind communication. The only rhetoric class I have taken in the past is rhetoric in English, not communication; I learnt about Plato, Socrates and all the pervious rhetors that formed the basis on how we communicate today. You could argue that learning it in English and now in communication it could be very similar or the same, but we aren’t focusing on what they wrote or spoke of but why and how. In this paper I chose to analyze a TedX talk from a student athlete Victoria Garrick called ‘Athletes and mental Health: The hidden opponent’, it discusses the challenges that she faced with mental health, and the struggles maintaining a top sport on a colligate team. The reasons behind this are based on the broad ideas and opinions people have on student athletes and mental health separately and together.
College athletics is a huge industry, an incredible achievement to get into a division 1 college on an athletic scholarship, but behind all this there are some dark truths. The TedX talk from Victoria Garrick explains these truths from an athlete’s perspective, this is conflicting to the ideas that an average student or outsider has, it explains what is happening behind closed doors. This artifact was gripping to me, it is something that I completely relate too; the artifact itself is a more personal approach to understand what is happening in regard to mental health in student athletes than just reading an article online. To me personally it is easier to find an artifact that I can easily relate too, something that is grossly underappreciated and classed as embarrassing, such a topic as mental health. There were no obstacles in retrieving artifacts for this interest, it is such a broad area that I am interested in finding more information about. There are artifacts everywhere about topics such as this, articles, speeches, documentaries, all gripping a relatable.
In this class I am aware that I have much to learn, understand the way in which we communicate and why, the best ways to communicate, and the best evidence and artifacts to find for a specific topic. Finding an artifact for a topic that you are deeply invested in is different than having to find one that your heart isn’t in. With regards to this paper I am already thinking about ideas of where I can focus my information on next, where can I understand different political views behind this topic? What are the families of these student athletes going through? Mental health and student athletes separately. With regards to this class I would like to be able to find these sources and write about them in a way that grips a reader and helps me understand the reasoning behind such communication methods.

From On the Advantage and Disadvantage of History for Life, by Friedrich Nietzsche (1874)
Section 1:
CONSIDER the herds that are feeding yonder: they know not the meaning of yesterday or to-day; they graze and ruminate, move or rest, from morning to night, from day to day, taken up with their little loves and hates, at the mercy of the moment, feeling neither melancholy nor satiety. Man cannot see them without regret, for even in the pride of his humanity he looks enviously on the beast's happiness. He wishes simply to live without satiety or pain, like the beast; yet it is all in vain, for he will not change places with it. He may ask the beast—"Why do you look at me and not speak to me of your happiness?" The beast wants to answer—"Because I always forget what I wished to say": but he forgets this answer too, and is silent; and the man is left to wonder.
He wonders also about himself, that he cannot learn to forget, but hangs on the past: however far or fast he run, that chain runs with him. It is matter for wonder: the moment, that is here and gone, that was nothing before and nothing after, returns like a spectre to trouble the quiet of a later moment. A leaf is continually dropping out of the volume of time and fluttering away and suddenly it flutters back into the man's lap. Then he says, "I remember . . . ," and envies the beast, that forgets at once, and sees every moment really die, sink into night and mist, extinguished for ever. The beast lives unhistorically; for it "goes into" the present, like a number, without leaving any curious remainder. It cannot dissimulate, it conceals nothing; at every moment it seems what it actually is, and thus can be nothing that is not honest. But man is always resisting the great and continually increasing weight of the past; it presses him down, and bows his shoulders; he travels with a dark invisible burden that he can plausibly disown, and is only too glad to disown in converse with his fellows—in order to excite their envy. And so it hurts him, like the thought of a lost Paradise, to see a herd grazing, or, nearer still, a child, that has nothing yet of the past to disown, and plays in a happy blindness between the walls of the past and the future. And yet its play must be disturbed, and only too soon will it be summoned from its little kingdom of oblivion. Then it learns to understand the words "once upon a time," the "open sesame" that lets in battle, suffering and weariness on mankind, and reminds them what their existence really is, an imperfect tense that never becomes a present. And when death brings at last the desired forgetfulness, it abolishes life and being together, and sets the seal on the knowledge that "being" is merely a continual "has been," a thing that lives by denying and destroying and contradicting itself.
If happiness and the chase for new happiness keep alive in any sense the will to live, no philosophy has perhaps more truth than the cynic's: for the beast's happine.

Multicultural and Social Justice
Counseling Competencies:
Guidelines for the Counseling Profession

S. Kent Butler, and Julian Rafferty McCullough
In 2014, the Association for Multicultural Counseling and Development (AMCD)
appointed a committee to revise the Multicultural Counseling Competencies
developed by Sue, Arredondo, and McDavis in 1992 and operationalized by
Arredondo et al. in 1996. This article reflects the updated competencies, titled
the Multicultural and Social Justice Counseling Competencies (MSJCC; Ratts,
Singh, Nassar-McMillan, Butler, & McCullough, 2015a), which were endorsed by
AMCD on June 29, 2015, and by the American Counseling Association on July
20, 2015. A conceptual framework of the MSJCC visually depicts the relationships
among the competencies’ key constructs: multicultural and social justice praxis,
quadrants, domains, and competencies. Implications are discussed.
Keywords: multicultural, social justice, competencies, counseling, advocacy

their emergence and recognition, multicultural perspectives have become
embedded into many aspects of the counseling profession (Erickson Cornish,

CHAPTER 4: THE CARBON FOOTPRINT CONTROVERSY
What is the carbon footprint controversy?
Nearly all humans consume meat, dairy, and egg products in some form. In recent years the
e i me al m eme ha ed he ece i f ed ci g e ca b f i . Ca e
reduce our footprint without changing our diet? Much controversy surrounds that question. One
very extreme view on the political-left is below.
But when it comes to bad for the environment, nothing literally compares with eating meat. The business of raising
animals for food causes about 40 percent more global warming than all cars, trucks, and planes combined. If you care
about the planet, it's actually better to eat a salad in a Hummer than a cheeseburger in a Prius.
Bill Maher, host of HBO talk show Real Time with Bill Maher, writing in the Huffington Post in 2009. Accessed April 25,
2013 at http://www.huffingtonpost.com/bill-maher/new-rule-a-hole-in-one-sh_b_259281.html.
The last decade has seen a movement advocating a vegan diet in order to reduce carbon emissions,
and in some respects the argument is logical. After all, it takes about 3.388 lbs of corn (and many
other inputs) to produce a single pound of retail beef, making meat seem relatively inefficient to
grains, thus leading to a larger carbon footprint.134 So common is this notion that some schools
e c age Mea le M da for the sake of the environment. The Meatless Monday movement
has even been adopted by the Norwegian military.135 Moreover, there is some scientific research
showing that vegan (and vegetarian) diets do result in a smaller carbon footprint.136
When dealing with issues as big as global warming i ea feel hel le , like he e li le e ca d make a
diffe e ce B he mall cha ge e make e e da ca ha e a eme d im ac . Tha h his Meatless Monday
resolution is important. Together we can better our health, the animals and the environment, one plate at a time.
Los Angeles Councilmember Ed Reyes, co-author of a Meatless Monday resolution in 2012.137
However, equally prestigious research shows that vegan diets can result in a higher carbon
footprint.138 How can this be? One reason is that some carbon footprint estimates are wrong, or
rather, interpreted incorrectly. The idea of livestock production being a large carbon emitter began
with a report by the United Nations (UN) suggesting that livestock contributes 18% f he ld
carbon footprint, more than the transportation sector,139 thus giving Bill Maher reason to point the
blame at burgers instead of Hummers.
It turns out that this 18% is fraught with errors, a lea , d e e e e c di i i he U.S.
For instance, the UN did not account for the carbon emissions involved in making the inputs used
in the transportation sector, but they did for livestock. This would be like saying the production of
tires has zero carbon emissions but the production of corn does. Also, that 18% makes a number of
contestable assumptions, especially regardi.

Megaregion Planning
and High-Speed Rail
Petra Todorovich
c h a p t e r 2 4
?
On April 16, 2009, President Obama stood before an audience at the Eisenhower
Executive Office Building and made an announcement that signaled a new era of
passenger rail in the United States. Months before, the American Recovery and
Reinvestment Act (ARRA) had provided $8 billion for a new program at the
Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) to issue competitive grants to states to
make capital investments in high-speed and conventional passenger rail. Little did
the president know that providing the single largest boost for intercity rail plan-
ning in this country in a generation had also motivated a sudden and giant leap for-
ward in planning and governing megaregions. Luckily, regional planners had been
studying emerging megaregions for the previous five years, in affiliation with the
New York–based Regional Plan Association’s (RPA) America 2050 program. Again
and again, the planners had identified high-speed rail as the key transportation
investment to serve megaregion economies. But high-speed rail was a distant
dream. That all changed with the passage of ARRA at the nadir of the Great
Recession. Now a federal program exists to support high-speed rail planning
and implementation. Making that program a success will largely depend on the
ability of multiple actors at the local, regional, state, and binational levels to come
together as megaregions to coordinate and leverage federal rail investments.
Revisiting Megalopolis: RPA Resurrects
the Megaregion Idea
As if planning for the Tri-State New York metropolitan region was not sufficiently
complicated, in 2005 the Regional Plan Association launched a national program
called America 2050 that focused on the emergence of a new urban scale: the
megaregion. This was not actually a new concept for RPA. In 1967 a volume of the
Second Regional Plan documented the emergence of “The Atlantic Urban Region,”
an urban chain stretching 460 miles from Maine to Virginia (Regional Plan

Assignment Details
Groups typically labeled as
terrorist
have a heterogeneous nature. This nature is often overlooked because of the emotional connotations from the label of terrorism. When evaluating groups that use terrorist tactics, it is necessary to look beyond surface similarities and identify these heterogeneous characteristics. This week, utilize any group currently identified as terrorists, and answer the following:
Assignment Guidelines
In 6 paragraphs, address the following:
What characteristics, if any, do members of the group share?
Besides race or ethnicity, what significant misconceptions do you think are made regarding the characteristics of terrorist groups?
Why do you think those misconceptions exist? Explain.
These characteristics are often shallow. Identify what heterogeneous characteristics exist within the group.
Are these characteristics significant to the goals and motivations of the terrorist group? Why or why not?

Control: The
Management Control
Environment
Chapter
In this and the next three chapters, we describe the nature of the management control
process and the use of accounting information in that process. This chapter describes the
environment in which management control takes place: the organization, the rules and
procedures governing its work, the organization’s culture, and the organization’s exter-
nal environment.
Management control focuses on organization units called responsibility centers.
There are four types of responsibility centers that can be used: revenue centers, expense
centers, profit centers, and investment centers. Profit centers and investment centers
may require the use of transfer pricing, which this chapter also addresses.
Management Control
An organization has goals; it wants to accomplish certain things. It also has strategies for
attaining these goals, which are developed through an activity called strategy formula-
tion. Strategy formulation is not a systematic activity because strategies change when-
ever a new opportunity to achieve the goals—or a new threat to attaining the goals—is
perceived, and opportunities and threats do not appear according to a regular schedule.
Essentially, the management control process takes the goals and strategies as given
and seeks to assure that the strategies are implemented by the organization. Formally,
management control is defined as the process by which managers influence members
of the organization to implement the organization’s strategies efficiently and effec-
tively. The word control suggests activities that ensure the work of the organization
proceed as planned, which is certainly part of the management control function. How-
ever, management control also involves planning, which is deciding what should be
done. The organization will not know how to implement strategies unless plans are de-
veloped that indicate the best way of doing so.
These plans have essentially two parts: (1) a statement of objectives, which are the
results that the managers should achieve in order to implement strategies, and (2) the
ant7959X_ch22_650-681.qxd 3/16/10 10:46 PM Page 650664 Accounting - Vol. 2
resources required in order to attain these objectives. (The words goals and objectives
are often used interchangeably. We use goals for broad, usually nonquantitative, long-
run plans relating to the organization as a whole, and objectives for more specific, often
quantitative, shorter-run plans for individual responsibility centers.)
Moreover, managers do not always seek planned results. If there is a better way than
the one indicated in the plan, managers ordinarily should employ that better way.
Therefore, the statement that management control seeks to assure desired results is
more realistic than a reference to planned results.
With respect to a machine or other mechanical process, we can say that the process
is either “in control” or out of control; that is, either the machi.

As I discussed in the previous chapter, the ADD/ADHD paradigm
is problematic as a conceptual tool for accounting for the hyperactive,
distractible, or impulsive behavior of schoolchildren. In this chapter,
I’d like to explore some alternative ways of accounting for these same
kinds of behavior. In essence, I present a number of competing per-
spectives to the biologically based, ADD/ADHD paradigm, including
historical, sociocultural, cognitive, educational, developmental, gen-
der-related, and psychoaffective perspectives. I do not argue here that
any one of these paradigms should replace the conventional
ADD/ADHD perspective as the final answer. Each of these perspec-
tives covers an aspect of the total picture and includes important views
that are typically left out of the ADD/ADHD world view.
Historical Perspective
Many books written from an ADD/ADHD perspective include a sec-
tion that details the history of ADD/ADHD. Barkley (1990, pp.
3–38), for example, points out that ADD/ADHD was first observed in
1902 by George Still, a British physician who wrote about 20 children
in his practice who were noncompliant and aggressive, and who he
believed had “moral defects” due to underlying neurological problems
(Still, 1902). Barkley goes on to mention an encephalitis epidemic in

1917–18 where surviving children often had ADD/ADHD-type
symptoms. He then describes research during the 1930s and 1940s on
the cognitive and behavioral problems of brain-damaged children and
the emergence of “minimal brain damage” as a term to describe kids
who had similar behavioral disturbances with no obvious brain dam-
age. He explores the 1950s and 1960s as a time when people used the
terms hyperkinetic and hyperactive; and he noted that the 1970s repre-
sented the decade of the actual birth of the term attention-deficit disor-
der. Barkley described the 1980s as a period of increasing research into
ADD/ADHD and the beginnings of national advocacy efforts dedi-
cated to treating this condition, and the 1990s as a time of further
articulating the symptoms, subtypes, comorbid factors, and other fea-
tures of this disorder.
The implication in this history is that ADD/ADHD has always
been with us, but only in the last few years have we made real progress
in our ability to track it down and treat it approp.

Submit:
1. Your Word document for Parts 1 & 2 with documentation.
2. Your working DB with saved SQL query views.
Part 1
Access: make certain to submit the .accdb and NOT the locked DB (in other words, save and close the DB before submitting).
For the selected list of data (playlists_export.csv) included, you must:
1) (15 points) normalize the list into a multiple related tables design
2) (points for submission) build an MS-Access
Note: You must use SQL statements to create your tables.
You may use the Insert statement, or import Excel/CSV files, to populate your tables.
3) (10 points) validate data is built correctly, i.e., use both equi-join and inner-join test queries
Name these queries ‘equi-join’ and inner-join’ respectively.
4) (15 points) solve these specific analysis questions using SQL queries:
· top 3 artists (by playlist tracks; by played tracks);
· bottom 3 playlist tracks (by track duration or length);
· Best Album (by playlist tracks; by played tracks)
5) Document your work in a single Word document with screenshots and descriptions
6) (15) Document your success by validating the DB works as intended, i.e. run (3) additional queries. Provide an explanation of the query (what you were attempting to accomplish), the code, and the results. Make certain you SAVE the query in the DB.
7) Do not encrypt or lock the database with username/password.
8) (25 points) Submit working database (including the saved sql queries) AND the Word document
Part 2 Queen Anne DB (use the DB provided)
T. (5 points) Given your assumptions about cascading deletions in your answer to part B of the Queen Anne case study, write the fewest number of DELETE statements possible to remove all the data in your database, but leave the table structures intact.
Do not run these statements if you are using an actual database!
If you decide to run the code, make a copy of the DB and use it to test your SQL statements.
U. (15 points) Chapter 2 discussed multivalued dependencies and the associated multivalue, multicolumn problem and how to resolve it (pages 96-98). Does the VENDOR table have the multivalue, multicolumn problem?
If so, use the discussion on pages 114-118 as the basis for solving it for the QACS database.
Create a new table named PHONE_NUMBER, link it to the VENDOR table, populate the PHONE_NUMBER table, and finally alter the VENDOR table to remove any unneeded columns. Hint: Read the additional discussion of the SQL ALTER TABLE statement in online Extension B, “Advanced SQL”.
Use the ALTER statement.

Tea and More: Resolving
Complex Supply Chain
Issues1
Abstract
Tea and More is facing growing pains from its rapid expansion over the last decade.
The case provides a summary of the challenges faced by the company in the areas of
supply chain management, marketing plans, the creation of economic value and the
development of a long-term strategy for profitable growth.
Introduction
Jack Reynolds hadn’t panicked often since he and two business partners bought Tea
and More (TAM) from its founders almost sixteen years ago. As a purveyor of fine teas
and assorted food specialties to upscale restaurants and gourmet shops, TAM had
achieved a steady growth in market share and profitability since those early days when
gross revenues were less than U.S. $1 million and Jack knew most of his customers on a
first-name basis. Jack had bought out his partners along the way, making decisions eas-
ier. He had grown used to calling the shots on even the most insignificant aspects of
operations and sales.
But by early 2009, revenues had grown to almost U.S. $25 million. Jack was putting in
killer days and had earned a reputation within the company as a temperamental “time
bomb” isolated in his corner office, where he regularly dispatched scorching e-mails
and voicemails about his latest discontents. There was no denying that the company
ached with growing pains. Jack snapped another pencil in half. Why did he always
have to come up with the next good idea? TAM employees from top to bottom were
privately feeling the weight of Jack’s heavy hand on the tiller. Turnover was beginning
to be a major problem, with valuable management time seemingly being wasted on try-
ing to train yet another new hire.
Jack dashed off an e-mail to his senior staff announcing a summit conference of sorts—
a weekend retreat where they (or he) would get to the bottom of the problems facing the
company: competitors fighting hard for more of TAM’s market share; maddening delays

was “going under the microscope” to “make this company run like it used to.”

CHAPTER

Research in Public and Nonprofit Programs
The Basics
What do you think of when you hear the word research? Do you imagine a scientist working in a lab, an economist surrounded by computers and graphs, or a scholar surrounded by a pile of books? You are right; each is conducting research. But research goes well beyond the work of a scientist, an economist, or a scholar. Research may describe what you do when you decide what computer to buy, what jobs to apply for, or what music to download. It also describes what effective managers and influential stakeholders do when they monitor a program’s performance, determine its effectiveness, and assess the experiences and opinions of its clients. With information gathered from research, managers monitor their programs, publicize their successes, and identify opportunities for program improvement. Stakeholders may use the information to decide what programs to support and what policies to advocate for. Just as you sometimes make decisions, organizations make some decisions quickly with little information. Sometimes, however, decisions are made after gathering as much information as possible and organizing it. This latter approach to research is the subject of this text. We define research as the systematic gathering and analysis of empirical information to answer a question.
RESEARCH AND EFFECTIVE MANAGEMENT
Research and effective organizations go hand in hand. They both depend on openness, accountability, and a commitment to learning and change. Openness or transparency is a key organizational and research value, which adds to an organization’s reputation. Stakeholders want to know how an organization uses its resources. They want information on what the organization does and what it has achieved. Information on a program’s performance, its effectiveness, and how it is perceived all contribute to transparency. You, your staff, or a contractor may conduct research to gather information. Whoever conducts the research is expected to disclose what information they gathered, whom they gathered it from, and how they analyzed it. With full disclosure, management teams have the information they need to decide if and how they can act on the research findings.
Accountability may be thought of as an attribute of transparency. An accountable organization is open and produces evidence that it is meeting stakeholder expectations. Donors, funders, and clients may all want confirmation that a program is well managed and achieving results. You may collect data on a program’s clients, activities, services, and results. Information on clients and activities documents that the program reaches the target population and provides appropriate services. You can link the information on clients and activities to data that can be linked to results. .

Background
The research focuses on investigating leaders from highly rated managed care organizations based on their leadership practices in comparison to leaders from low rated managed care organizations. High rated organizations are managed care organizations who have attained either 4.5 or 5 Medicare Stars ratings whiles low ratings organizations are organizations who have attained 3 Stars or less.
The research design: Survey was sent to leaders from both high Medicare rated and low rated organizations. I believe I have enough sample size so the result will be significant. I have received 35 response from leaders from high rated organizations and 35 from low rated organizations (35 participants each responded, making 70 participants in total). The goal is to find out if there is a significant difference in leadership practice between leaders from highly rated organizations and low rated organizations.
The survey tool used is Leadership Practice Inventory (LPI), which has a total of 30 behavioral statements that reflect on the practices leaders regularly use in managing their organizations. The leaders were invited to complete the survey online. The 30 survey questions are grouped in 5 Models:
1. Model the Way
1. Inspire a Shared Vision
1. Challenge the Process
1. Enable Others to Act
1. Encourage the Heart
The participants completed the LPI self-test, where they must rate themselves depending on the frequency, which they believe in engaging in each of the five models. They rate themselves on a 10 point likert scale, below.
1-Almost Never
3-Seldom
5-Occasionally
7-Fairly Often
9-Very Frequently
2-Rarely
4-Once in a While
6-Sometimes
8-Usually
10-Almost always
1. Dependent Variable: Attaining high Overall Medicare Star Rating
1. Independent Variables:
1. Leadership practice Practices (Model the Way, Inspire a Shared Vision, Challenge the Process, Enable Others to Act, and Encourage the Heart)
1. Years of Experience
1. Leadership Style
Abbreviations meaning:
LP- Leadership Practice
MSR – Medicare Stars Ratings
MSROs – Medicare Stars Ratings Organizations
YoE – Years of Experience
The following hypotheses has been tested, analyzed (page 4-23). SPSS software was used for data analysis.
Hypothesis 1 - There is a significant difference in LP between leaders from high (4.5 or 5) MSROs and low (3 Stars or less) MSROs.
Hypothesis 2 – There is a strong relationship between MSRs and the LP of both high and low MSROs
Hypothesis 3 - In comparison to other 4 models (thus Model the Way, Challenge the Process, Enable Others to Act, Encourage the Hearts), practicing the “Inspire A Shared Vision” model is very significant in helping leaders influence the attainment of high MSR in MCOs.
Hypothesis 4 – The leaders’ leadership style contributes to a leader’s ability to influence the achievement of high Medicare ratings for MCO.
Hypothesis 5 – The Leaders’ of Years of Experience (YoE) is effective in enabling leaders influence the attainment o.

Interest Paper- Mental Health in Student Athletes
I am a communication major so must take this class to fulfill my requirements for the course, however, this class will set me up to understand the in-depth reasoning behind communication. The only rhetoric class I have taken in the past is rhetoric in English, not communication; I learnt about Plato, Socrates and all the pervious rhetors that formed the basis on how we communicate today. You could argue that learning it in English and now in communication it could be very similar or the same, but we aren’t focusing on what they wrote or spoke of but why and how. In this paper I chose to analyze a TedX talk from a student athlete Victoria Garrick called ‘Athletes and mental Health: The hidden opponent’, it discusses the challenges that she faced with mental health, and the struggles maintaining a top sport on a colligate team. The reasons behind this are based on the broad ideas and opinions people have on student athletes and mental health separately and together.
College athletics is a huge industry, an incredible achievement to get into a division 1 college on an athletic scholarship, but behind all this there are some dark truths. The TedX talk from Victoria Garrick explains these truths from an athlete’s perspective, this is conflicting to the ideas that an average student or outsider has, it explains what is happening behind closed doors. This artifact was gripping to me, it is something that I completely relate too; the artifact itself is a more personal approach to understand what is happening in regard to mental health in student athletes than just reading an article online. To me personally it is easier to find an artifact that I can easily relate too, something that is grossly underappreciated and classed as embarrassing, such a topic as mental health. There were no obstacles in retrieving artifacts for this interest, it is such a broad area that I am interested in finding more information about. There are artifacts everywhere about topics such as this, articles, speeches, documentaries, all gripping a relatable.
In this class I am aware that I have much to learn, understand the way in which we communicate and why, the best ways to communicate, and the best evidence and artifacts to find for a specific topic. Finding an artifact for a topic that you are deeply invested in is different than having to find one that your heart isn’t in. With regards to this paper I am already thinking about ideas of where I can focus my information on next, where can I understand different political views behind this topic? What are the families of these student athletes going through? Mental health and student athletes separately. With regards to this class I would like to be able to find these sources and write about them in a way that grips a reader and helps me understand the reasoning behind such communication methods.

From On the Advantage and Disadvantage of History for Life, by Friedrich Nietzsche (1874)
Section 1:
CONSIDER the herds that are feeding yonder: they know not the meaning of yesterday or to-day; they graze and ruminate, move or rest, from morning to night, from day to day, taken up with their little loves and hates, at the mercy of the moment, feeling neither melancholy nor satiety. Man cannot see them without regret, for even in the pride of his humanity he looks enviously on the beast's happiness. He wishes simply to live without satiety or pain, like the beast; yet it is all in vain, for he will not change places with it. He may ask the beast—"Why do you look at me and not speak to me of your happiness?" The beast wants to answer—"Because I always forget what I wished to say": but he forgets this answer too, and is silent; and the man is left to wonder.
He wonders also about himself, that he cannot learn to forget, but hangs on the past: however far or fast he run, that chain runs with him. It is matter for wonder: the moment, that is here and gone, that was nothing before and nothing after, returns like a spectre to trouble the quiet of a later moment. A leaf is continually dropping out of the volume of time and fluttering away and suddenly it flutters back into the man's lap. Then he says, "I remember . . . ," and envies the beast, that forgets at once, and sees every moment really die, sink into night and mist, extinguished for ever. The beast lives unhistorically; for it "goes into" the present, like a number, without leaving any curious remainder. It cannot dissimulate, it conceals nothing; at every moment it seems what it actually is, and thus can be nothing that is not honest. But man is always resisting the great and continually increasing weight of the past; it presses him down, and bows his shoulders; he travels with a dark invisible burden that he can plausibly disown, and is only too glad to disown in converse with his fellows—in order to excite their envy. And so it hurts him, like the thought of a lost Paradise, to see a herd grazing, or, nearer still, a child, that has nothing yet of the past to disown, and plays in a happy blindness between the walls of the past and the future. And yet its play must be disturbed, and only too soon will it be summoned from its little kingdom of oblivion. Then it learns to understand the words "once upon a time," the "open sesame" that lets in battle, suffering and weariness on mankind, and reminds them what their existence really is, an imperfect tense that never becomes a present. And when death brings at last the desired forgetfulness, it abolishes life and being together, and sets the seal on the knowledge that "being" is merely a continual "has been," a thing that lives by denying and destroying and contradicting itself.
If happiness and the chase for new happiness keep alive in any sense the will to live, no philosophy has perhaps more truth than the cynic's: for the beast's happine.

Multicultural and Social Justice
Counseling Competencies:
Guidelines for the Counseling Profession
Manivong J. Ratts, Anneliese A. Singh, Sylvia Nassar-McMillan,
S. Kent Butler, and Julian Rafferty McCullough
In 2014, the Association for Multicultural Counseling and Development (AMCD)
appointed a committee to revise the Multicultural Counseling Competencies
developed by Sue, Arredondo, and McDavis in 1992 and operationalized by
Arredondo et al. in 1996. This article reflects the updated competencies, titled
the Multicultural and Social Justice Counseling Competencies (MSJCC; Ratts,
Singh, Nassar-McMillan, Butler, & McCullough, 2015a), which were endorsed by
AMCD on June 29, 2015, and by the American Counseling Association on July
20, 2015. A conceptual framework of the MSJCC visually depicts the relationships
among the competencies’ key constructs: multicultural and social justice praxis,
quadrants, domains, and competencies. Implications are discussed.
Keywords: multicultural, social justice, competencies, counseling, advocacy

The Multicultural Counseling Competencies (MCC) developed by Sue, Arredondo, and McDavis (1992) have been instrumental in helping counselors, psychologists, and other mental health professionals ad-
dress the needs of culturally diverse clients, groups, and communities. Since
their emergence and recognition, multicultural perspectives have become
embedded into many aspects of the counseling profession (Erickson Cornish,

CHAPTER 4: THE CARBON FOOTPRINT CONTROVERSY
What is the carbon footprint controversy?
Nearly all humans consume meat, dairy, and egg products in some form. In recent years the
e i me al m eme ha ed he ece i f ed ci g e ca b f i . Ca e
reduce our footprint without changing our diet? Much controversy surrounds that question. One
very extreme view on the political-left is below.
But when it comes to bad for the environment, nothing literally compares with eating meat. The business of raising
animals for food causes about 40 percent more global warming than all cars, trucks, and planes combined. If you care
about the planet, it's actually better to eat a salad in a Hummer than a cheeseburger in a Prius.
Bill Maher, host of HBO talk show Real Time with Bill Maher, writing in the Huffington Post in 2009. Accessed April 25,
2013 at http://www.huffingtonpost.com/bill-maher/new-rule-a-hole-in-one-sh_b_259281.html.
The last decade has seen a movement advocating a vegan diet in order to reduce carbon emissions,
and in some respects the argument is logical. After all, it takes about 3.388 lbs of corn (and many
other inputs) to produce a single pound of retail beef, making meat seem relatively inefficient to
grains, thus leading to a larger carbon footprint.134 So common is this notion that some schools
e c age Mea le M da for the sake of the environment. The Meatless Monday movement
has even been adopted by the Norwegian military.135 Moreover, there is some scientific research
showing that vegan (and vegetarian) diets do result in a smaller carbon footprint.136
When dealing with issues as big as global warming i ea feel hel le , like he e li le e ca d make a
diffe e ce B he mall cha ge e make e e da ca ha e a eme d im ac . Tha h his Meatless Monday
resolution is important. Together we can better our health, the animals and the environment, one plate at a time.
Los Angeles Councilmember Ed Reyes, co-author of a Meatless Monday resolution in 2012.137
However, equally prestigious research shows that vegan diets can result in a higher carbon
footprint.138 How can this be? One reason is that some carbon footprint estimates are wrong, or
rather, interpreted incorrectly. The idea of livestock production being a large carbon emitter began
with a report by the United Nations (UN) suggesting that livestock contributes 18% f he ld
carbon footprint, more than the transportation sector,139 thus giving Bill Maher reason to point the
blame at burgers instead of Hummers.
It turns out that this 18% is fraught with errors, a lea , d e e e e c di i i he U.S.
For instance, the UN did not account for the carbon emissions involved in making the inputs used
in the transportation sector, but they did for livestock. This would be like saying the production of
tires has zero carbon emissions but the production of corn does. Also, that 18% makes a number of
contestable assumptions, especially regardi.

Megaregion Planning
and High-Speed Rail
Petra Todorovich

?
On April 16, 2009, President Obama stood before an audience at the Eisenhower
Executive Office Building and made an announcement that signaled a new era of
passenger rail in the United States. Months before, the American Recovery and
Reinvestment Act (ARRA) had provided $8 billion for a new program at the
Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) to issue competitive grants to states to
make capital investments in high-speed and conventional passenger rail. Little did
the president know that providing the single largest boost for intercity rail plan-
ning in this country in a generation had also motivated a sudden and giant leap for-
ward in planning and governing megaregions. Luckily, regional planners had been
studying emerging megaregions for the previous five years, in affiliation with the
New York–based Regional Plan Association’s (RPA) America 2050 program. Again
and again, the planners had identified high-speed rail as the key transportation
investment to serve megaregion economies. But high-speed rail was a distant
dream. That all changed with the passage of ARRA at the nadir of the Great
Recession. Now a federal program exists to support high-speed rail planning
and implementation. Making that program a success will largely depend on the
ability of multiple actors at the local, regional, state, and binational levels to come
together as megaregions to coordinate and leverage federal rail investments.
Revisiting Megalopolis: RPA Resurrects
the Megaregion Idea
As if planning for the Tri-State New York metropolitan region was not sufficiently
complicated, in 2005 the Regional Plan Association launched a national program
called America 2050 that focused on the emergence of a new urban scale: the
megaregion. This was not actually a new concept for RPA. In 1967 a volume of the
Second Regional Plan documented the emergence of “The Atlantic Urban Region,”
an urban chain stretching 460 miles from Maine to Virginia (Regional Plan

Assignment Details
Groups typically labeled as
terrorist
have a heterogeneous nature. This nature is often overlooked because of the emotional connotations from the label of terrorism. When evaluating groups that use terrorist tactics, it is necessary to look beyond surface similarities and identify these heterogeneous characteristics. This week, utilize any group currently identified as terrorists, and answer the following:
Assignment Guidelines
In 6 paragraphs, address the following:
What characteristics, if any, do members of the group share?
Besides race or ethnicity, what significant misconceptions do you think are made regarding the characteristics of terrorist groups?
Why do you think those misconceptions exist? Explain.
These characteristics are often shallow. Identify what heterogeneous characteristics exist within the group.
Are these characteristics significant to the goals and motivations of the terrorist group? Why or why not?
How can heterogeneous characteristics be exploited to weaken a group's infrastructure?

Control: The
Management Control
Environment
Chapter
In this and the next three chapters, we describe the nature of the management control
process and the use of accounting information in that process. This chapter describes the
environment in which management control takes place: the organization, the rules and
procedures governing its work, the organization’s culture, and the organization’s exter-
nal environment.
Management control focuses on organization units called responsibility centers.
There are four types of responsibility centers that can be used: revenue centers, expense
centers, profit centers, and investment centers. Profit centers and investment centers
may require the use of transfer pricing, which this chapter also addresses.
Management Control
An organization has goals; it wants to accomplish certain things. It also has strategies for
attaining these goals, which are developed through an activity called strategy formula-
tion. Strategy formulation is not a systematic activity because strategies change when-
ever a new opportunity to achieve the goals—or a new threat to attaining the goals—is
perceived, and opportunities and threats do not appear according to a regular schedule.
Essentially, the management control process takes the goals and strategies as given
and seeks to assure that the strategies are implemented by the organization. Formally,
management control is defined as the process by which managers influence members
of the organization to implement the organization’s strategies efficiently and effec-
tively. The word control suggests activities that ensure the work of the organization
proceed as planned, which is certainly part of the management control function. How-
ever, management control also involves planning, which is deciding what should be
done. The organization will not know how to implement strategies unless plans are de-
veloped that indicate the best way of doing so.
These plans have essentially two parts: (1) a statement of objectives, which are the
results that the managers should achieve in order to implement strategies, and (2) the
ant7959X_ch22_650-681.qxd 3/16/10 10:46 PM Page 650664 Accounting - Vol. 2
resources required in order to attain these objectives. (The words goals and objectives
are often used interchangeably. We use goals for broad, usually nonquantitative, long-
run plans relating to the organization as a whole, and objectives for more specific, often
quantitative, shorter-run plans for individual responsibility centers.)
Moreover, managers do not always seek planned results. If there is a better way than
the one indicated in the plan, managers ordinarily should employ that better way.
Therefore, the statement that management control seeks to assure desired results is
more realistic than a reference to planned results.
With respect to a machine or other mechanical process, we can say that the process
is either “in control” or out of control; that is, either the machi.

As I discussed in the previous chapter, the ADD/ADHD paradigm
is problematic as a conceptual tool for accounting for the hyperactive,
distractible, or impulsive behavior of schoolchildren. In this chapter,
I’d like to explore some alternative ways of accounting for these same
kinds of behavior. In essence, I present a number of competing per-
spectives to the biologically based, ADD/ADHD paradigm, including
historical, sociocultural, cognitive, educational, developmental, gen-
der-related, and psychoaffective perspectives. I do not argue here that
any one of these paradigms should replace the conventional
ADD/ADHD perspective as the final answer. Each of these perspec-
tives covers an aspect of the total picture and includes important views
that are typically left out of the ADD/ADHD world view.
Historical Perspective
Many books written from an ADD/ADHD perspective include a sec-
tion that details the history of ADD/ADHD. Barkley (1990, pp.
3–38), for example, points out that ADD/ADHD was first observed in
1902 by George Still, a British physician who wrote about 20 children
in his practice who were noncompliant and aggressive, and who he
believed had “moral defects” due to underlying neurological problems
(Still, 1902). Barkley goes on to mention an encephalitis epidemic in

1917–18 where surviving children often had ADD/ADHD-type
symptoms. He then describes research during the 1930s and 1940s on
the cognitive and behavioral problems of brain-damaged children and
the emergence of “minimal brain damage” as a term to describe kids
who had similar behavioral disturbances with no obvious brain dam-
age. He explores the 1950s and 1960s as a time when people used the
terms hyperkinetic and hyperactive; and he noted that the 1970s repre-
sented the decade of the actual birth of the term attention-deficit disor-
der. Barkley described the 1980s as a period of increasing research into
ADD/ADHD and the beginnings of national advocacy efforts dedi-
cated to treating this condition, and the 1990s as a time of further
articulating the symptoms, subtypes, comorbid factors, and other fea-
tures of this disorder.
The implication in this history is that ADD/ADHD has always
been with us, but only in the last few years have we made real progress
in our ability to track it down and treat it approp.

Tea and More: Resolving
Complex Supply Chain
Issues1
Abstract
Tea and More is facing growing pains from its rapid expansion over the last decade.
The case provides a summary of the challenges faced by the company in the areas of
supply chain management, marketing plans, the creation of economic value and the
development of a long-term strategy for profitable growth.
Introduction
Jack Reynolds hadn’t panicked often since he and two business partners bought Tea
and More (TAM) from its founders almost sixteen years ago. As a purveyor of fine teas
and assorted food specialties to upscale restaurants and gourmet shops, TAM had
achieved a steady growth in market share and profitability since those early days when
gross revenues were less than U.S. $1 million and Jack knew most of his customers on a
first-name basis. Jack had bought out his partners along the way, making decisions eas-
ier. He had grown used to calling the shots on even the most insignificant aspects of
operations and sales.
But by early 2009, revenues had grown to almost U.S. $25 million. Jack was putting in
killer days and had earned a reputation within the company as a temperamental “time
bomb” isolated in his corner office, where he regularly dispatched scorching e-mails
and voicemails about his latest discontents. There was no denying that the company
ached with growing pains. Jack snapped another pencil in half. Why did he always
have to come up with the next good idea? TAM employees from top to bottom were
privately feeling the weight of Jack’s heavy hand on the tiller. Turnover was beginning
to be a major problem, with valuable management time seemingly being wasted on try-
ing to train yet another new hire.
Jack dashed off an e-mail to his senior staff announcing a summit conference of sorts—
a weekend retreat where they (or he) would get to the bottom of the problems facing the
company: competitors fighting hard for more of TAM’s market share; maddening delays

Research in Public and Nonprofit Programs
The Basics
What do you think of when you hear the word research? Do you imagine a scientist working in a lab, an economist surrounded by computers and graphs, or a scholar surrounded by a pile of books? You are right; each is conducting research. But research goes well beyond the work of a scientist, an economist, or a scholar. Research may describe what you do when you decide what computer to buy, what jobs to apply for, or what music to download. It also describes what effective managers and influential stakeholders do when they monitor a program’s performance, determine its effectiveness, and assess the experiences and opinions of its clients. With information gathered from research, managers monitor their programs, publicize their successes, and identify opportunities for program improvement. Stakeholders may use the information to decide what programs to support and what policies to advocate for. Just as you sometimes make decisions, organizations make some decisions quickly with little information. Sometimes, however, decisions are made after gathering as much information as possible and organizing it. This latter approach to research is the subject of this text. We define research as the systematic gathering and analysis of empirical information to answer a question.
RESEARCH AND EFFECTIVE MANAGEMENT
Research and effective organizations go hand in hand. They both depend on openness, accountability, and a commitment to learning and change. Openness or transparency is a key organizational and research value, which adds to an organization’s reputation. Stakeholders want to know how an organization uses its resources. They want information on what the organization does and what it has achieved. Information on a program’s performance, its effectiveness, and how it is perceived all contribute to transparency. You, your staff, or a contractor may conduct research to gather information. Whoever conducts the research is expected to disclose what information they gathered, whom they gathered it from, and how they analyzed it. With full disclosure, management teams have the information they need to decide if and how they can act on the research findings.
Accountability may be thought of as an attribute of transparency. An accountable organization is open and produces evidence that it is meeting stakeholder expectations. Donors, funders, and clients may all want confirmation that a program is well managed and achieving results. You may collect data on a program’s clients, activities, services, and results. Information on clients and activities documents that the program reaches the target population and provides appropriate services. You can link the information on clients and activities to data that can be linked to results. .
