Fall 2015 Tuesday, Thursday 11:00-12:15 JR 244 Professor Nate Millsnathaniel.mills@csun.eduOffice hours: Tuesdays 1:00-3:30 and by appointmentSierra Tower 718 | Course Description / Objectives Through a historical survey of the work of major African-American writers from slavery to the present, this course will examine the defining features of African-American expression. The course is organized around a foundational question: what makes African-American literature African-American? Is it just a set of texts that happen to have been written by authors who identified as black in their respective historical moments? Are there distinct formal and thematic paradigms that unify these texts into a coherent literary tradition? What relation do black texts bear to other black texts, as well as to the Western canon? Are African-American texts necessarily “political,” by definition protesting the social and political marginalization of black people in America? Do African-American texts represent the particular experiences of African Americans, or do they (also?) address universal problems and experiences? The cultural, literary-formal, and political distinctiveness of African-American writing will thus be the guiding theme of this course’s rigorous, fast-moving survey. Additionally, students in 311 will acquire knowledge of the following: * The ways African-American writers have negotiated the tensions, contradictions, or harmonies...

... to dispense with the services of such employee (Halbert & Ingulli, 2012).” The doctrine of employment at will emerged as the predominant rule in wrongful discharge cases in America during the latter part of the 19th century. With Employment at Will, known as EAW, even if there is cause to fire someone, their reason does not have to be just, in the sense of being appropriate to the level of performance or the nature of the misconduct. This doctrine states that the “business should have the freedom to discharge or retain employees at will for good cause, for no cause, or even for bad cause, without thereby being guilty of an unlawful act. It is a right which an employee may exercise in the same way, to the same extent, for the same cause or want of cause as the employer. In essence, the doctrine recognizes that the wage owner’s the full owner of his labor services, and the business the full owner of his capital. Each is free to exchange on whatever terms they see fit (Sentell & Robbins, 2008).” The United States remains the last major industrialized country without comprehensive just-cause protection against arbitrary dismissal. The American EAW permits an employer to fire an employee when there is no misconduct, minor misconduct or serious misconduct; one incident of misconduct or many incidents. No substantive grounds are generally needed (Harcourt, et.al., 2013). The Civil Liberties Union estimates that at least 200,000 Americans are unjustly terminated every year...

...“interest in the partnership” — the partner’s share of the profits and losses (without mentioning any particular or specific property). (c) Note that the right to participate in the management is a very valuable property right. Art. 1811. COMMENT: (1) Co-Ownership in Specific Partnership Property The law says “a partner is co-owner with his partners of specific partnership property.” What does this mean? ANS.: Simply that they are co-owners (tenants in common with proportional, sometimes equal) right thereto. However, the rules on co-ownership do not necessarily apply; the rules on “co-ownership in partnership” are applicable. Said rules are detailed in the subsequent paragraphs. (See Commissioner’s Note, 7 ULA, Sec. 25, pp. 32-33). (2) Rights of a Partner in Specific Partnership Property (Example: a car contributed by one of the partners to the partnership) (a) In general, he has an equal right with his partners to possess the car but only for partnership purposes (not for other purposes, except if the others expressly or impliedly give their consent). (b) He cannot assign his right in the car (except if all the other partners assign their rights in the same property). [NOTE: If this rule is violated, the assignment is VOID (See Cayton v. Hardy, 27 Mo. 536), where the other partners were able to recover what had been sold or assigned). The same rule applies if the right is mortgaged. (Walcox v. Jackson, 7 Colo. 521). The assignee or purchaser does NOT become a co-owner...

The Office of Personnel Management controls this proposed regulation. I am pursuing my MBA with a concentration in accounting, but my second choice would have been HealthCare management so by choosing this regulation I will have a better understanding of the type of regulations currently in place or being proposed. At this time the regulation proposed does not have a direct impact on myself, nor the business I am in. I have attached a copy of the proposed regulation at then end of this assignment. The Office of Personnel Management is proposing to temporary adjust the Federal Employee Health Benefits Program regulations to make sure employees who work sporadic schedules are eligible to be enrolled in a health benefits under the Federal Employees Health Benefits Program (FEHBP). The Office of Personnel Management intentions on proposing this regulation is to allow agencies such as the Federal Emergency Management Agency also known as FEMA to apply to OPM for “authorization to offer FEHBP coverage to intermittent employees engaged in emergency response functions.” The Office of Personnel Management is proposing to provide health coverage to those who work as temps/part time in emergency response functions.

Cases and readings emphasize strategies to improve the performance of companies in light of their multiple constituencies, in both international and US environments. Topics include integrated strategy, activists and the media, legislation affecting business, lobbying, regulation and antitrust, intellectual property, international trade policy, and business ethics. Most core courses focus on firms’ interactions with customers, suppliers, and alliance partners in the form of mutually beneficial exchange transacted in markets. In contrast, this course considers the strategic interactions of firms with comparably important constituents, organizations, and institutions outside of markets. Issues considered include those involving activist and interest groups, the media, legislatures, regulatory and antitrust agencies, and international organizations such as the WTO. Markets and the business environment are increasingly interrelated: issues such as boycotts, legislation, regulation, judicial decisions, and trade policy directly affect firms’ market performance. Conversely, the profit-maximizing activities of firms often give rise...

...JUSTICE AND DIVERSITY WORD COUNT 3846 Introduction The aim of this assignment is to consider whether mental health patients have autonomy or do staff and the healthcare environment merely allow them a measurable quantity of autonomy based on legal, ethical and moral restrictions, if this is the case, is this autonomy at all? Placement experiences will be given in relation to patient autonomy and related ethical, legal and professional issues will be supported and/ or contrasted by relevant literature. Patient autonomy and capacity, consent, compliance, coercion and paternalism with be considered. In an attempt to show a deeper understanding and ability to apply theory to practice, the moral theories of liberal individualism, utilitarianism, Kantianism and communitarianism will be discussed in relation to patient autonomy. Attitudes, values, assumptions related to patient autonomy, implications for practice and care provision will also be reviewed. This topic has been chosen, due to personal interest following practice experiences on an adult acute mental health unit. All identifying factors relating to the patients have been changed to maintain client confidentiality (Nursing and Midwifery Council’s (NMC) Code of Professional Conduct 2002). A conclusion will be offered to evaluate findings, finalising with a reflective summary focusing on the process of enquiry. Autonomy Autonomy means self rule (Dworkin 1988). It as the ability to think, choose and act freely and...

The accuracy of the financial reporting system depends on answers to a few fundamental questions: At what point has revenue been earned? At what point is the earnings process complete? When have expenses really been incurred? During the 1990s’ boom in the stock prices of dot-com companies, many dot-coms earned most of their revenue from selling advertising space on their websites. To boost reported revenue, some dot-coms began swapping website ad space. Company A would put an ad for its website on company B’s website, and company B would put an ad for its website on company A’s website. No money changed hands, but each company recorded revenue (for the value of the space that it gave the other company on its site). This practice...
