Bernie Ruben, Director of the Technical Service Group at IVK, forward an email attachment to Barton a few days earlier. Barton said that he received the email but he hasn’t had the time to review the report. He would discuss about it in the next meeting. The second situation in the case study was about the report from the email attachment that Barton received. The report was about social media and briefly mentions about blogs, YouTube, Facebook, and social networking.

...Danielle Spieler Kristen Hughes ENG 105 October 23, 2012 Women in the Media According to Dove Research, The Real Truth about Beauty, only 4% of women around the world consider themselves beautiful (“Surprising Self Esteem Statistics”). Women in the media are shown as having a body type that is unrealistic and impractical. Although mass media has many negative effects on today’s women, including low self-esteem, an increase in eating disorders and an inaccurate definition of beauty, advertisements and thin models can also serve as role-model and as inspiration. From dolls to Victoria’s Secret models, women are exposed to all types of media images that portray “the thin ideal” from a very early age. Media pressure to be thin can cause individuals to have negative thoughts about their appearance. According to psychologist Tiffanie Domil, “Body image is the way people perceive themselves, and the way they believe others perceive them” (“The Influence of Media Images”). Therefore body image is all about what we see about ourselves, and our opinions of our bodies, even though they opinions may not be exactly true. For example, one woman might think she is overweight when in reality she is perfectly healthy. There have been multiple studies done to connect media to women’s low self-esteem. One example of the effects of media is in Fiji in 1995, when televisions were introduced. Statistics show that after 38 months of being exposed to media, females started to be more conscious...

...2012 University of Phoenix Organizational Issues Ethics are a set of principles or values that help guide people to determine if something is right or wrong. They influence decisions that people make everyday. They are also the principles and standards of conduct the guide an individual or a group. In this week's assignment I opted for the EthicsGame simulations: “The Mysterious Blogger” and “The Veiled ID” The two simulations provided different ethical issues. “The Mysterious Blogger concerns the issue obtaining information that was illegally obtained to prove that an employee violated a non-disclosure agreement. Aaron Webb is an employee working in the MD department and posted confidential information in a blog concerning the company. An IT tech, Jamal Moore felt that his supervisor was not taking the situation seriously. He took it upon himself to hacked into Mr. Webb's home computer and found incriminating evidence. In “The Veiled ID” concerns the issue of protecting employees while also protected their rights and special needs. The company is beefing up security due to an unfortunate situation. The solution is to have each employee where security badges with a photo ID. Atsha Mullah religious belief is not to be seen without her veil to anyone other than her family and the photo would be in violation of that belief. In both simulations the solutions became the top priority. Steps needed to be taken in order to determine what the ethical...

...For my blog entry, the topic that came to my mind was insomnia. Insomnia was the first thing that drew my attention when thinking about mental disorder. Personally, insomnia had an effect in my past, which will be stated when concluding this blog entry. The article examines the controversy of insomnia, symptoms, and what the causes are for the mental disorder. “Insomnia is the inability to fall asleep easily, or remain asleep throughout the night, or waking too early in the morning” (Jim Folk, Anxiety Centre). The controversy here is that insomnia requires a number of hours a person needs to sleep; statistically the number of hours was about 7-8 hours to get enough sleep. That number could differ depending on what age the individual is. What this means is that the older the person is, the less sleep they would need. However, the lowest number an individual would need would be 6 hours at least. Most people have occasional nights of restlessness, which is okay. On the other hand, a long rest is not the best scenario because it may lead to diminished memory, depression, headaches, impaired concentration, and an increase in risk of substance abuse. The answer that everyone is so keen to find out is what are the causes and conditions of insomnia. There are numerous reasons to how insomnia happens; consuming coffee or any type of caffeine, extended computer work, and etc. There are many more conditions that could cause insomnia, but the main reasons are mentioned above. There...

...agendas of their own." The statement is without any basis or a personal attack, but if the press did have an agenda, whether political or otherwise, how would civilians be able to discern this? The only check on the press is other press outlets, and if one had views that could sway public opinion in a way detrimental to the general good, it is hoped that another press outlet could provide a more neutral standpoint. Lastly, social media and the Internet have given rise to a new batch of citizen journalists where anyone can write something on an amateur news site and it could be considered news. It is great that every day people now have more of a voice and tools to broadcast, but there are downsides to this phenomenon. Without editorship, blog posts could disseminate harmful or incorrect information. How does media rules in elections? The media affects presidential elections by ensuring that everybody regardless of where they are receives the proceedings or is made aware of what is going on. The media people will report the findings of each step and every phase of the elections and give counts for each candidate without altering or biasness and by viewing we can be able to follow each step by ourselves.

...com/exclusive/free5000subscribers/ Now let’s dive in... 1 I’ve got a quick question for you... If you’re looking to attract your first 5,000 subscribers, my first question I have for you is this: Does any of the following sound familiar? “I’ve worked myself ragged creating content, and nothing is happening. It’s like I’m working for free.” “I’ve tried posting to my blog multiple times per week, commenting on other blogs, guest posting, and pretty much everything. None of it is working.” “I’ve got no idea how to even get started with attracting subscribers. I write a lot of blog posts, but the traffic is just trickling in.” If you said “Yes,” to any of the above, block out 15 minutes and read this entire free ebook. Because it’s not your fault. Here’s the truth: Much of the “common sense” wisdom that “experts” share about building a readership is, at best, flawed and, at worst, flat out wrong. As an example, has anyone ever told you that “the secret to building a blog readership is by regularly updating your blog with engaging content each week?” That couldn’t be MORE WRONG. I’ve already debunked this myth on several occasions. You can read more about it on my blog. The real secret is about 80% promotion / 20 % creation. Read about it here. You see, many of these “experts” who dish out flawed advice fall into one of two categories. They are either: 2 A) Experts who built their readership back in the day, back when there was almost no competition. Back when it was EASY to build a readership. B) Experts...

But there are some students that work really had at putting their own thoughts and ideas together, for their own work. The students that use other people’s work tend to get in trouble for it. Plagiarism is frowned upon in the Academic community. You are allowed to use bits and pieces of information but you must give acknowledgment to where you found the information and who wrote it first. When writing it is very important to form your own opinion so no one can say you plagiarized someone else. You find this a lot in blogs on the Internet. You read one blog go to another on the same topic and it’s the same. This makes you wonder who wrote theirs first. Thankfully there is a post date on these blogs. For bloggers on the Internet there should be some type of code when it comes to writing. Bloggers should only blog about their own stuff and the ones that are copying other writers and posting it as their own should be called out on it. It is not fair to other writers that have put a lot of work into something they wrote...
