...The transition from elementary school into middle school is a difficult switch for preadolescent individuals. Preadolescent individuals are experiencing many difficult changes in their lives at this point in time, such as physical, emotional, and cognitive changes. Transitioning from elementary school into middle school can also be quite scary for young children. It is vital for preadolescents to have the necessary resources to aid in their transition. Unfortunately, many low-income families do not have those vital resources, such as time, support, and money, to name a few. ‘“Follow the Lead”’ is an intervention based afterschool mentoring program targeting low-income preadolescents in order to provide a safe and encouraging environment for...

...CONSOLACION COMMUNITY COLLEGE LARAY, CONSOLACION, CEBU FINAL PROJECT IN P.E 2 PREPARED BY: ALVAREZ, FEBE ROSE L. AHRM-1 INSTRUCTOR: MR. RODGRIGO APOS SOCIAL DANCES * WALTZ HISTORY The Waltz is the oldest of the ballroom dances, dating from the middle of the Eighteenth Century. The German "Lander", a folk dance, is supposed to be the forerunner of the Waltz. During this time period a dance developed which was called the "Walzer", a word owing its origin to the Latin word Volvere, which indicates a rotating motion. Napoleon's invading solders spread the waltz from Germany to Paris; then the dance glided across the channel to England and finally made its way to the United States. When the Waltz was first introduced into the ballrooms of the world in the early years of the Nineteenth Century, it was met with outraged indignation, for it was the first dance where the couple danced in a modified Closed Position - with the man's hand around the waist of the lady. Beginning about 1830, the waltz was given a tremendous boost by two Austrian composers Lanner and Strauss. They set the standard for the Viennese Waltz, a very fast version played at about 55 - 60 measures per minute. The fast tempo did indeed present problems. Much of the enjoyment of the new dance was lost in the continual strain to keep up with the music. It is not known exactly when the waltz was introduced to the United States. It was probably brought to New York and Philadelphia at about...

...important? Sales Leads Only Matter if They Convert Into Sales From C. J. Hayden http://sbinfocanada.about.com/od/salesselling/a/salesleadshay.htm A question I often get from clients and students goes something like this: "I've been collecting marketing ideas... and I have a drawer full! I also have a stack of promising sales leads I've accumulated. And I know it's important to stay visible, so I do a lot of networking, but then I just end up with more names in the stack. How do I prioritize all this?" If you've ever wondered something similar, you may have lost sight of a very important truth - the way to win the marketing game is not to collect the most sales leads; it's to make the most sales. Marketing activities that increase your number of sales are good, and activities that don't are bad, even if they bring in plenty of leads. If you don't follow up on the sales leads you gather, you are throwing away your time and money. The main purpose of marketing strategies like public speaking, writing articles, getting publicity, networking, promotional events, and advertising is to gain visibility. (A secondary purpose of the first three strategies can be to gain credibility.) Why do you want to be visible? It's not just so people will know who you are and what you do, it's so they will do business with you. If someone has already expressed interest in doing business, call them. Do it now. Memorize this rule -- following up on hot, or even warm, client leads is always more important...

...Self-leadership is a self-development activity. According to John Maxwell, self-leadership isn’t really a simple task. Most importantly the most difficult task in self-leadership is to lead ourselves because he believes that by leading ourselves correctly, the rest of the people will follow correctly. He adds to his perception that leaders who leads the way, know the right path, and always implement the right decisions are the leaders you will want to follow. He believes that leaders aren’t trained but naturally born. People who are meant to be leaders are rare. They only exist at the very top of an organization. Being a leader is not simple, some people admits that being a leader makes us suffer through loneliness ad this is the reason why we have to know why we are up there. Being at the top and lead people doesn’t mean that we have nothing to sacrifice. Being a leader makes us lose freedom. To become a great leader, merely leading people isn’t enough. The essence of leadership is lead, but that doesn’t mean that leading people is enough, we should first develop ourselves and lead ourselves because if you don’t follow yourself, there’s no reason for people to follow you. Leading our self means that we have to lead yourself towards the right direction. And then thirdly, you develop others and you lead them. But it doesn’t end here,...

...Leadership: Are Good Leaders Made Or Born? Heather Brown Social Psychology Dr. Alyson Kohl National University Abstract Many studies have taken place to decide whether people are naturally born to lead or whether those traits are developed and taught over time. Different traits combine to make good leaders, such as ambition, intelligence, and self-confidence. In this paper I will discuss whether these traits are naturally within someone or can they be taught over time. Leadership: Are Good Leaders Made Or Born? How is a good leader defined? Are they charismatic, smart, an over achiever? A Leader, is defined as a person who is “appointed, elected, or informally chosen to direct and co-ordinate the work of others in a group”. A leader and leader-ship are two very different things. To lead you need to be able to influence groups of people socially [ (Kassin, Fein, & Markus, 2014) ]. Without influence, it would be hard to have people want to follow you. Leaders influence people to work together to accomplish a variety of goals. Leaders can be found in all aspects of life, at work and at play. Psychologists have conducted studies to identify what traits are common to “natural-born leaders”. Some of the common traits that great leaders have been defined in the Great Person Theory of history ( [ (Kassin, Fein, & Markus, 2014) ]. Ambition, intelligence, and self-confidence are just a few of traits that great leaders throughout time have had in common. The...

...and legal topic for hospitals / health organizations all around the globe. It is a current controversy that involves many people, especially if you are a patient or doctor at a hospital. The main topic I am talking about is, DNAR(Do Not Attempt Resuscitation) forms and how they help develop legal problems by; communication between patient and doctor, medical professionals not being able to do everything possible for a patient and to follow the patient’s wishes. The controversy is important because sometimes in medical cases there is a mistake in the communication process or someone does not follow the patient’s wishes. This can lead to many problems for medical professionals like being sued for following a DNAR order or family members being upset because this is not what they wanted to happen for the patient. Whatever the problem...

...Western ethics is vastly influenced by Christian law-based ethics, which in turn gathered its legal ethical code from Judaism. As a result, as society's values have changed, the effectiveness of transcendent entities as rulers within law-based ethics to provide ethical agents with an obligation to obey the moral law has been brought into question. This essay will focus on Christian ethics, where 'transcendent entities' will refer to the Christian God, and 'law-based ethics' is the divine law set down by God within Christian scripture. To prove that God is necessary to provide ethical agents with a duty to follow the divine law, this essay will discuss God and humanity's nature, agents' need for a transcendent law-giver, the role that religion...

...objectives are very important for a leader to be successfull. It is the leader's responsibility to make sure that the entire team is part of seeing that vision become reality. That inspires people to follow his lead. In my previous job i have seen my project lead exhibiting a great vision and strategy that inspired all of our team members to follow his path and that lead to success. 2. How do you apply Law of Buy in? According to Maxwell( 2007) Law of buy in states that People buy in to the leader first then the vision.Good leaders understand that people must buy into them first before buying into their vision. I believe that law of buy in plays vital role in achieving success. Because people tend to follow the leader and supports his values only when they buy in to the leader and his vision. I apply law of buy in by supporting my ideas , vision and have proper planning.Having standard vison which is consisitent with core values and objectives helps to grow as a leader .Setting high standards and displaying character with integrity and setting good examples helps to grow as a leader.Credibility can be build by developing good relationships with people and by understanding their values and respecting their ideas. This in turn builds the foundation for others to follow you and respect your ideas. 3. Give 2 examples of the Law of Victory in your personal life. I had an experience when i...

...In Ayn Rand’s novella Anthem the main character, Equality 2-2521, and the girl he’s into, Liberty 5-3000, are very similar but at the same time they have many differences. The novella focuses on Equality the whole time. It focuses on him from his younger years where he was always different from his brothers, and his later years where he transgresses a lot. He knows he’s different and when he finds a secret subway he’s able to practice experiments and learn. He then builds a light and when he shows the city council they reject it. Equality then goes to live in the uncharted forest where he and Liberty then find a house and live out their life.

...definition of power is the ability to perform efficiently. The word power is used when describing, one’s strength (s) or force. Power can also be used to describe, a person with authority. For example, President Obama as Commander and Chief has the power to dictate just about anything so long as he or she remains within the guidelines of the law. He has the authority to dictate the moves of the United States Army and all other agencies to do as he sees fit or desires them to do. However, if he goes and break the laws of the land (abuse his power), he can be removed by Congress. Power’s Relationship and Leadership After, having a vision and setting a goal for themselves a good leader has the authority or ability to persuade their team to follow their vision. A leader's power is not dominant but, by showing their team their long-term benefit of pursuing a goal and convincing them to come aboard. There are three different styles of leadership the Authoritarian leader the type that makes all the decisions and, calls all the shots. This leader may collaborate and collect all the facts and make the final determination independently. The Democratic leader is the leader that welcomes all team input and try to come to a decision as a team. The democratic type of leader is more likely to allow the team to be and work more freely which helps the team confidence. Laissez-faire leader is the kind of leader that give the team full discretion and freedom to come up with a decision and work...

...pressure is one of the leading problems of adolescence. Peer pressure can lead to many problems. Peer pressure can be to spoke weed, to drink alcohol, to dress differently, to change yourself physically to make friends, and maybe, to a lesser extent, to not study for a test to go see a movie. All teenagers, and all people go through peer pressure -- it's not just in high school. A co-worker might say to you, "Let's go to the club instead of this meeting," and some people might give into that. However, solely regarding adolescents, it's detrimental, but it really depends on what they're being pressured into doing. If they're pressured into cheating on a test, that can lead to lower grades, and even suspension or expulsion. If they're pressured into smoking, this can lead to addiction, and this can lead to health problems, like asthma, blindness, or throat and lung cancer. If they're pressured into drinking alcohol, this can lead to addiction, alcoholism, recklessness, and even alcohol poisoning, which can lead to death. If they're pressured into changing their physical appearance to make friends, this can lead to some serious issues, such as bulimia and anorexia, which has been linked to excessive weight-loss, hair-loss, discoloration of the skin, dizziness and fainting, lack of energy, chronic sore throats, and broken blood vessels in the eyes, among many other detrimental things. Ultimately, this can lead to death. Peer pressure can cause teenagers to become dependent on peers...

...The of the charges against Anne Hutchinson was that she disobeyed the fifth commandment. The fifth commandment states that a person should “honor thy father and thy mother”. The father stands for God and the mother stands for anyone who does God’s will or in other words ministers. The ministers were viewed as the people God chose for salvation and that they are the ones who can help other people. Antinomianism is a belief that a person receives direct revelation from God and that they don’t need obey human or divine laws. In accordance Hutchinson didn’t feel need to follow what the ministers teachings even though the they were highly respected in the community. The other charge against her was that she accused the ministers of preaching covenant of works rather than grace. Not only did Anne refuse to follow the teachings but, she also accused them teaching people the wrong things....

...INTRODUCTION This Paper analyzes the Case 16: Medical Laser Equipment. Some of the given facts are as follows: Order is set to every Monday which means an annual total of 50 orders No. of Periods = 250 Days Annual Demand = 166 Units Average Inventory = 5 Units Order Cost = $95 Stock out Cost = $250 Holding Cost = 50% * $1,000 = $500 Capital Cost = 10% Handling Cost = 15% Obsolescence = 5% Storage Cost = 20% We started the case analysis by the normality test for the current data to check if the data is normally distributed or not. Our objective is to calculate the current Total Cost and then come up with a better solution to lower the cost. As a result, we have developed two scenarios, both of them reveled lower cost than the current one. Below is detailed analysis. NORMALITY TEST Knowing the nature of our data is a key factor for deciding upon the appropriate way to propose a new modeling scenario. As a fact, most of the popular statistical techniques assume that studied data are normally distributed under certain conditions. Therefore, a normality test was performed to: Test if demand is well-modeled by a normal distribution or not. Find out descriptive statistics about the demand distribution such as mean, standard deviation and P-value. Test result revealed that the demand is normally distributed with: Mean = 0.664 Standard Deviation = 0.776 P-Value < 0.005 Below are graphical presentations for test results. ...
