My Inspirational pattern suggests that I am frustrated with the status quo. Creative breakthroughs are often the result of discontent with the status quo and, as a result, I may innovate past former barriers. In examining my own behavioral style and how it manifests in my relationships, I was not surprised by the outcome. I work effectively with people through leadership and providing them with long-term motivation through my natural optimism. I am convinced and persuasive, which have been major attributes in the success of my sales and management career. I also bring enthusiasm and openness to find alternatives to any challenges that I come across. Because of this, I can easily establish trust with my employees as well as my business partners. These qualities have allowed me to quickly form bonds and establish trust with individuals of various levels within an organization. My style is to move quickly and correct errors as I go. My Di combination can sometimes get me into trouble with individuals who are trying to exert their title or role onto me and with disregard for my position or thoughts. Also, I am impatient when decisions are left hanging. I am quick to assess situations and address any issues at hand with certainty that they have reached closure and a corrective action plan is in place.

Pat and I have worked at the same company for over six years. We have been on the same team in a managerial capacity for two out of those six years. Our working relationship began in a peer-to-peer capacity, where we managed lateral sales teams. It was obvious from the beginning of our working relationship that we had very different personalities. Pat is more cautious, analytical, and calm under pressure, whereas I am daring, enthusiastic, and eager. My drive to make decisions quickly was often hindered by Pat’s slow thought processes. Our differences were somewhat manageable at the beginning, as his behavior didn’t impede my day-to-day enjoyment of my job.

. To begin with, it must be said that settings of Eudora Welty’s work perform a vivid picture of numerous beauty salons for women all over the world in a point of a typical situation for such a context when a hairdresser, a manicurist, or a stylist interacts with his or her client both in a professional way and through discussions of any possible themes. Surely, this practice cannot be considered as a permanent one, but under conditions of living in a small town women very often use services of the same beauty parlor the whole life. Rather than anywhere else, masters of beauty salons become those persons who are able not only to make women attractive but also to assist them with different issues and questions through input. Naturally, such an atmosphere adds to gossip sharing. And talks between Leota and Mrs. Fletcher are the case in point. The two women are engaged in a conversation during which Mrs. Fletcher gets to hear that ladies in the town spread the news of her pregnancy. The newcomer Mrs. Pike and another woman allow themselves to talk with their masters within the salon as well as outside it about the private life of Mrs. Fletcher whose real state even cannot be supposed due to such miserable and non-obvious proofs as loss of hair and visit to the drugstore. One way or another, such activity as gossiping is seen by Leota as an ordinary and non-harmful one, since she notices her habit to fill in pauses with some phrases just to make talk. In fact, the woman even does not catch the idea of possible negative consequences of those chitchats due to the fact that she perceives her female companions as “…somebody didn’t mean to harm in&nbsp.the world” (Welty 438). However, Leota understands the hollowness of gossips emphasizing “What people don’t know don’t hurt nobody… ” (Welty 439), without regard to their stable negative impact on people’s comfort at any rate. Consequently, she feels free at hearing Mrs. Pike’s betting of Mrs. Fletcher’s gestational age: “… lady’s three months on the way” (Welty&nbsp. 440).

Complete 5 pages APA formatted article: The Major Problems of the American Welfare System.

/in /by

The United States of America struggled to remedy the effects by the inclusion of social and employment policies in the nation’s constitutional framework. The legislators and policymakers promised the general public about the provision of increased employment opportunities and social justice to all the citizens of America. The rights of senior citizens were particularly given more importance, to eliminate their fear of suffering from an impoverished old age. Therefore, several efforts were undertaken by the American government to significantly lower the number of old individuals, who are forced into the floundering sea of fear and isolation.

Despite being the wealthiest and the most influential nation across the world, the United States of America remains one of the welfare lagged nations. Throughout the history of the nation, it is eminent that America’s involvement in establishing the social welfare system has not been satisfactory because it has failed to keep 37 million of its population, above the poverty line. In addition to the lack of appropriate State involvement, the citizens of the United States of America have also failed to play their role in the development of a social welfare system and this has served to an important problem for the success of the American welfare system. Several problems have been plaguing the American Welfare System since its establishment in 1930. However, the major problem is of differential distribution of wealth and resources. In the United States of America, the problem of differential distribution is reflected by the fact that wealth and public facilities such as health care systems have been concentrated in White-dominated areas such as LA and New York. Whereas, Black dominated areas such as Kansas and Delaware have been neglected throughout the history of America. Delaware and other Black dominated areas have twice the rate of infant mortality of that in LA, because of inadequate provision of pre and post gestation health care facilities.

Write 10 pages with APA style on Flavio and Marco and Business Law.

/in /by

It should be understood that the agreement between the two parties particularly pertains to subsection (i) of this reading. The other party (Nuriya) cannot perform work that is significantly different than what is expected. Concerning the Act mentioned above, but in section 17 of Part II, applies to this situation and will be specially applied to this case as well. Throughout most of this remaining piece, the Unfair Contract Terms will be abbreviated as “UCT” for convenience.

It may appear that Nuriya did not conduct work that was unexpected of Flavio and Marco because they read the contract and made a payment that all agreed upon at that time was pertaining to the contract mentioned. Both Flavio and Marco did in fact “insist” on differences before the agreement of the contract was made and those two made it clear that Nuriya should make these changes, the reasonable individual(s) would have known that Nuriya did not want to make such changes. The reason this is so is that Nuriya had added the clause “The agreement will be carried out under the conditions set up on Nuriyas previous communication.”

The addition of this clause undoubtedly changes the conditions of the contract and if the other parties knowingly read and made payment to this particular change then any payments to Nuriya would likely imply an understanding of the contract by Flavio and Marco. The other party (Nuriya) has not performed differently than what is expected.

As per Schedule Two of the UCT Act (1977) “whether the customer knew or ought reasonably to have known of the existence and the extent of the term (having regard, among other things, to any custom of the trade and any previous course of dealing between the parties) is relevant here.

More plainly, the contract possessed new language, and quite arguably Flavio and Marco should have known the new conditions written, and that signing the contract and additionally making the first payment to Nuriya after signing the contract would make the agreement seem reasonable and that Flavio and Marco had fully consented with the terms written.

Write 5 pages thesis on the topic homosexuality in andres mother by terrace mcnally

The playwright uses white balloons, which are symbolic of the soul of the departed, and when those at the memorial release the balloons, they are letting his soul drift to heaven. While Cal’s family has no problem doing this, Cal holds on to his and talks about his friend and how he had struggled with his sexuality, which his mother disapproved of. He explains how terrible a relationship Cal and his mother had and talks about the hardships of a gay person whose family turns its back on him. Andre’s mother remains mute throughout the soliloquy but after reflecting on his words, she decides to accept her son’s sexuality albeit posthumously, and releases her balloon.

Even in the late 1990s and 2000s, many homosexuals experienced psychological distress within family dynamics similar to that of Andre when he was alive. As the main social support, families can reduce the anxiety and pain by treating gays with acceptance, dignity, and above all, love. Even today, gay people are still suffering rejection similar to what Andre got from his mother from their both family and society. In many parts of the world, homosexuality is seen as a taboo and it has been criminalized with “perpetrators” often shunned by their community. Recently in Uganda, the government passed a law that made it a crime to engage in homosexual acts or to assist gays and even agitate for their rights (Fallon). Initially, the law was required that gay people should be sentenced to death but it was altered so the get life imprisonment, this is evidence of society’s intolerance for homosexuality can be deduced in the fact that on several occasions, people have been lynched on suspicion of being gay. A similar case is evident in Africa’s biggest economic power in Nigeria when homosexuality is punishable by over 14 years of imprisonment. While in the west, the laws are tolerant and in most cases dictate that there should be no discrimination against people on the basis of their sexual orientation or any other grounds for that matter (Taylor 78), some elements of society still treat gays as outcasts.

Throughout this period, however, fossils of the cyanobacteria mats are also referred to as the stromatolites that are said to have been instrumental in creating the free oxygen we have today existed. Other than that, this period had biogenic graphite that was found in several metasedimentary rocks in Western Greenland aged 3700 Ma. Apart from this, fossil records show that sandstone was later discovered to have microbial mat fossils in Western Australia dated 3480 million years ago. Other chert beds contain bacterial fossils making this period one that contributed a lot to the evolution of living things from simple organisms to more complex life forms.

Task 2

Climate is one of the many factors that make life on earth possible. Within millions of years, the temperatures of the planet have changed to fit bounds that are life-sustaining. The icehouse interval is characterized by three major glaciations in the Phanerozoic Eon. The first one is the Late Ordovician that occurred about 430 million years ago, the second one is the Permo Carboniferous period, whose period spanned 325-240 million years ago, and lastly, the Late Tertiary, which started about 35 million years ago and up to now (Koeberl 2009). The icehouse is controlled by several factors, rather hypotheses that try to explain what holds the icehouse. One of them focuses on the position of the pole, in which case it argues that there cannot be any ice sheet formed on continents when they are near the equator and that the same can only be formed near poles. The cold temperatures during the three intervals above resulted from low sea levels, less photosynthetic activity, low levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, and less volcanic activity in the oceans (Fischer 1986). There are several essential factors that scientists have agreed on as having been influential during the icehouse period. These controlling factors are secular, which means that they are internal to the earth, or cyclic, external to the planet (astronomical, that is).&nbsp.

Task 3

The Ediacaran period spanned between ca. 635 to 542 Ma. Fossils from this period have been found from all over the world and are mainly of multicellular organisms. However, the microorganisms, which are said to comprise a group of the Late Precambrian fossils, were first found near the Ediacaran Hills of Australia (the place where they got their name from). The Ediacaran organisms resemble the invertebrates such as the arthropods, worms, echinoderms, or the cnidarians.

Moving a bit more, a detailed discussion has been undertaken to throw light on how both employees and the organization fail to implement the compliance drive in the way it is planned. The shortcomings and the responses of the employees are supported by way of graphs.

Lastly, the positive impacts of compliance and negatives of non-compliance to IT security has been presented with the help of survey results conducted on major international companies from all sectors. A briefing of a standard compliance program is also attached with the paper in order to let the readers know of what should actually be there to make compliance a competitive advantage for an organization.

Organizations are feeling the heat of non-complaint behavior and process and technology issues leading to mammoth losses, both financial and organizational. Executing leadership in agreement with IT security policy and compliance is emerging as a challenge.

Compliance in an organization runs through the policy planning component and automation centers (Elliot 2008). Security is an essential feature in most of the organizations today and compliance gives visibility to the processes and controls within an organization.

Keeping the importance of Information Security and its relevance in today’s market place and market space, the present paper aims to explore “The Impact of Compliance on an organization’s existing Information Security policy.”

1. How compliance as an essential component of information security policy originated? What best practices are being followed and an overview of the major acts that are in place to adhere to the compliance rules.

The research paper has tremendous scope of revealing the loopholes that exist in organizations and what remedial measures could be taken to put back things into original and desired manner.

Provide a 6 pages analysis while answering the following question: Design Procedure for HVAC Systems

/in /by

Accordingly, the HVAC control system functions in terms of applying optimal regulation to either the air conditioning and/ or heating system present in a given environment. To be noted is that towards enhancing the basic operation and performance of the HVAC system, there is a need for a ‘sub-system.’ Accordingly, the DDC– Direct Digital Control – system functions as the ‘brain’ behind existing HVAC systems. This is through its functional role-play of dictating the positions of all dampers and valves in a given system. Thus, it is able to aptly determine which of the existing HVAC system chillers, pumps, and fans are effectively running and at what capacity, speed, and/or rate. Ultimately, it is towards more efficient and effective automation that the DDC system is necessary. Existing groups of DDC controllers, whether networked or not, form a complete layer of the system, thereby making it possible to link up various HVAC systems to a central control center (Althouse, Turnquist, and Bracciano 14).

HVAC systems are comprised of various mechanical technologies, hardware, and software components, all of which efficiently work in a systematic ‘pre-programmed’ manner. HVAC in general regards the pertinent technology vital towards both vehicular and indoor environmental comfort. Primarily, its ultimate goal is to provide not only acceptable indoor air quality, but also optimal thermal comfort (Bearg 108). Essentially, a sub-discipline of mechanical engineering, HVAC system design is based upon pertinent principles, i.e. heat transfer, fluid mechanics, and thermo-dynamics amongst others (Bearg 109).

Vital in the design and operational capacity of the various medium to large-scale office buildings and industrial complexes HVAC is also useful in marine environments, i.e. aquariums. It aids in enabling healthy and safe building conditions, through regulation of both humidity and temperature by way of utilizing outdoor fresh air. This entails ventilation of the ‘indoor air’ in any given space, to be replaced by fresh, high-quality air (Bearg 111).

Write 5 pages thesis on the topic manifestation of how the human brain handles conflicting materials.

The research study involved the researcher asking the participants (276 of them) to mention name words and non-words from two (2) different sets printed using different colors. The words in the two (2) lists were not consistent to allow for randomization and were not of the same length according to Stroop’s recommendations. Further, the colors used were different although the number of words was the same in both lists. The correctly named words and non-words were recorded for comparison. The results indicate that the mean difference between color words and nonsense words was found to be significant at 5% level of significance [Z = -13.318, P = 0.000, p&lt.0.05]. This means that participants named more color words than the nonsense words.

According to Melissa and Jessica (2009) and Torgesen et al. (2001), things that are well articulated can negatively influence one’s ability to notice the requirements of a particular undertaking and the phenomenon is referred to as the Stroop Effect. This effect according to Melissa and Jessica can be explained by two (2) theories the first being the speed of processing theory which assumes that interference in reading words occurs due to the fact that words can be read at a first speed as compared to reading colors. The second theory is the selective attention theory which on the other hand assumes that interference in naming colors entirely requires specific attention as compared to reading words.

To Glassberg et al. (1989), the Stroop effect is a manifestation of how the human brain handles conflicting materials and that completion of a certain task is affected by the dominant area of the brain which responses&nbsp.to other functional areas. Glassberg et al. use the example of naming colors giving an example where the word “RED” is written in blue. According to him, there occurs a delay in the procession of the color of the word.

I have known my aunt for long since I can remember and I knew a few of the answers she would provide to the interview questions and do so with the honesty and openness I wanted. There was no question that I felt uncomfortable to ask her as I was in a free relationship with her where she was more of a sister to me than an aunt.

Joyce’s definition of feminism is that it is a movement aimed to advocate equality between women and men in all aspects and areas from home to workplaces. Most of the feminists are however white women who have no first clue to what really happens in the homes and in marriages and they still have to permanent solutions to help the marginalized women without having to make them increase their marital problems. These feminists are highly educated white women and the majority are not even married and hence at the end of it, all have nothing much to lose by being feminists and advocating on having equal rights in all areas with the men. Her definition of the feminists reminded me of a passage in Hook’s article “Black Women Shaping Feminist Theory” which indicates that “Privileged feminists have largely been unable to speak to, with, and for diverse groups of women because they either do not understand fully the inter-relatedness of sex, race and class oppression or refuse to take this inter-relatedness seriously (Hooks, 1984).”

Joyce explained that being a man according to society entailed being the head of the house and making all the decisions as well as providing for the family. Masculinity had nothing however to do with the societal definition of a man but was everything to do with how the man interacted with others and especially women and how he treated them. Men who are abusive do not qualify to be classified in the definition of masculinity. Being a woman according to society meant obedience to their husbands and being caregivers. Femininity involves physical features of a woman and has everything to do with their body.
