...In a community living environment, there are often volunteers or staff that like to engage with the residents. By this interaction, the residents are able to participate in this life review. Therefore, residents are able to improve their life satisfaction. Some of the life review stories mentioned to me were mostly about relationships with family and friends. In a resident’s story, I noticed that they would start off talking about the wonderful events that occurred with their family and friends. Right after that, they mentioned how they regret that they lost contact with some family and friends. During this part of the discussion, their mood and voice changed. I noticed that this was something that played a role in their negative life review,...

...MANUSCRIPT REVIEW FORM Student: 25807609 Name: Ngwanasegolo Walter Solomon MakgaiLecturer’ s name: Professor Pieter BuysModule name: Financial Reporting PBSA811Title of manuscript: Independent Reviews: Perceptions of Chartered Accountants (South Africa) Journal: Southern African Journal of Accountability and Auditing Research Vol. 12: 2011 (25-36) | | 1. Are the Title and Abstract Appropriate? Explain On the one hand, the paper title does not seem to fully capture the essence of the paper. The meaning is ambiguous in that, it might either mean the perceptions of chartered accountants study is conducted by an independent review, or, it might suggest that the study is about how Chartered accountants perceive independent reviews. On the other hand, the authors (Odendaal and De Jager, 2011) have rightly specified that the study applies to Chattered Accountants in South Africa. The research findings are based on this geographical location. But while the title could have been more comprehensive, the abstract seems sufficient in that it summarises the study objective as to “determine the perceptions of Chartered Accountants (South Africa) regarding independent reviews” and goes on to report the process of data collection (questionnaire) as well as the summarised findings of the study. Recommendations are also outlined in the abstract. The abstract therefore provides a concise summary of what the reader should expect in the entire study. 2. Rate the paper in each of...

...Environmental Protection Agency Introduction Thе purpose of this paper is to review closely thе report entitled "EPA Needs to Improve Oversight of Its Information Technology Projects," with а major focus on its recommendations. In this paper, I will analyze different alternatives presented in thе report. I will also shed light on the Clinger-Cohen Act which directs that the Government Information Technology Shop be operated exactly as an efficient and profitable business would be operated. Acquisition, planning and management of technology must be treated as а "capital investment." Because this law is complex, all consumers of hardware and software in thе department should be aware of thе Chief Information Officer (CIO) leadership in implementing this statute. Clinger-Cohen Act Thе Clinger-Cohen Act was enacted as а response to а report released by U.S. Senator William S. Cohen of Maine in 1994 called "Computer Chaos: Billions Wasted Buying Federal Computer Systems." This report outlined thе many ways that the government squanders taxpayer funds on outmoded and unwanted computer equipment. Some of thе long-standing, systematic problems that thе Clinger-Cohen Act was enacted to resolve include: • Insufficient attention to thе way business processes are conducted and to opportunities to improve these processes before investing in thе Information Technology that supports them; • Investments in new systems for which agencies had not adequately planned and which did...

...Thought impregnated with love becomes invincible. – Charles Haanel A review of the balance on your investment account causes your stomach to churn; the results leave you in turmoil. Whether an investment account or a review of your business’ year-to-date sales, sometime this year you may experience, or may have already experienced, what is popularly known as a “market correction.” These types of market corrections provide us with the perfect backdrop to make some necessary changes in our lives. We all want to be passionately achieving goals and moving forth with our lives. While the market forces are correcting themselves, why not use the emotions that are created during this period to “correct” your life? Take stock of your financial situation and career and evaluate your life. As you evaluate, keep in mind that you are not a victim of circumstance. Although you may have suffered a setback you are not dependent upon your environment. You are an independent person and can write your own ticket in this world. You can choose to make changes in your life rather than wait for the market to change. Use this frame-of-mind to ask yourself powerful and provocative questions. What needs to be corrected in your life? When did you lose your passion for acquiring and achieving? When did you become complacent? Resting on your laurels has changed your game plan from offense to defense yet, though your money is worth less than it was a few months ago, you can still...

...How to Write a Book Critique PURPOSE OF THE ASSIGNMENT: The idea behind this assignment is to give you the opportunity to read a detailed historical account on a particular subject and to analyze the book critically. The paper you will be writing should be a book critique, rather than a book report. In a book report, you simply summarize the book. In a book critique, you go much further - you analyze and evaluate the book. WHAT A BOOK CRITIQUE SHOULD INCLUDE: There are many things you should do in a good book critique. How much attention you give to these different components of the critique may vary depending on the book you are analyzing. 1. Summarize the book. Yes, despite what I said above about the difference between a book report and a critique, you nonetheless need to do some summarizing in your critique. You need to describe what the book is about in enough detail that someone who hasn’t read the book has a clear idea of the topic the author is addressing, the parameters of the book, and how the book is organized. If you don’t give your reader some idea what the book is about, then you may lose your reader when you start analyzing the book. Note that a chapter-by-chapter summary of the book is not needed. A general summary of the main points will be sufficient. 2. Identify the author’s purpose. What does your author want to accomplish with this book? What audience is the book intended for? Your author may want to fill a gap in historical literature...
