...Page 24 Chapter 1 3. What important changes in family patterns do you see today? Today I see family patterns change in many perspectives ways. Families are more independent. They form their own opinions in their decision making. Do you see positive changes, negative changes, or both? I would have to say that I see both positive and negative changes in families. The positive that I see is that many husbands are more involved with their children and even some are now stay home dads taking care of the children while women go to work, the negative that I see is that there are many people filing for divorce and children being raised by single parents. What do they mean for families, in your opinion? My opinion is that most people are not making knowledgeable decisions and this is the result of many divorces. Another opinion is many lose respect in their relationship leaving them in divorce. 4. What are some examples of a personal or family problem that is at least partly a result of problems in the society? An example of personal and family problems that is at least partly a result of problems in society is communication and respect. Families today don’t communicate face-to-face as they use to years ago, there is so much technology that gets in the way of how we communicate. Society changes all the time and this effects both your personal and family problem because economy. Page 49 Chapter 2 2.

...Question 1 Video 1: https://www.ted.com/talks/eric_liu_why_ordinary_people_need_to_understand_power/transcript?language=en a. Liu’s definition of power: The definition of power means the capacity to make others do what you would have them to do. b. Liu’s definition of civics: The definition of civics simply means the art of being a pro-social, problem-solving, problem-solving contributor in a self-governing community. c. The result of our creeping fatalism in public life is: Depressingly low levels of civic knowledge, civil engagement, and participation awareness. The whole business of politics has been effectively subcontracted out to a band of professionals, money people, outreach people, message people, and research people. The rest of us are meant to feel like amateurs in the sense of suckers. We become demotivated to learn more about how things work. We begin to opt out. d. If people don't learn power, people don't wake up, and if they don't wake up, they get left out. e. All of civics boils down to the simple question of who decides, and you have to play that out in a place, in an arena f. Liu argues the best place to practice power is the city. g. What is the challenge and opportunity in citizen power today? Do you have command of these elemental questions of power? Could you put into practice effectively what it is that you know?

...friends leave school because their dad scolded them or because they got a bad note. Some want to forget about these problems, which last a long time in their homes and resort to drugs and do not care anything. For them, life is dark, full of thorns and obstacles. They feel that their life is against you and that your destiny is to suffer. They listen to music of complaints and depression, and they gather together to talk only about it. They already have formed a vision of the world and everything that happens to them they interpret it negatively, without hope. In my family we also have had strong problems, but we do not see the life as well. There is always humor, even in feathers. Sometimes you can have defeats in life but you...

...initiative I would first see who and what is being affected by this drug problem. I would then collect information on those who live in that specific area. If I know that a person or group of people do not live in that area that I know who is most likely selling drugs. I would then get information on those who live in that area to ask for help to clean their streets up. I would consider responses such as who always walks away when an officer approaches the area, and who just gives of a negative vibe toward an officer. I would also watch and see who is just sitting outside all day on the block, even if there is no one outside with him. To assess this problem I would have more officers patrolling that specific area. I would have those officers patrolling on foot and talking to those who live in that area to gain trust with the citizens. And lastly I would try to hold a meeting in that area to let the people know that we are trying to resolve their drug problem and not just harass the people in that area. 2. To address the drug trafficking problem in Baltimore City I would first see what areas have the most drug problems. I would focus on those areas so you can see the difference we are making in a shorter time.

...Before proceeding in problem determination, there are some initial questions to be answered. Have you changed anything recently? If you have changed, added, or removed software or hardware just before the problem occurred, back out the change and see if the problem persists. What else is running on the workstation? If you have other software, including a firewall, try switching it off to see if the problem persists. Is the problem reproducible on the same workstation? Knowing that this defect occurs every time the described steps are taken is helpful because it indicates a straightforward programming error. If the problem occurs at alternate times, or occasionally, thread interaction and timing problems in general are much more likely. Is the...

But such basic causes are quite intractable and not easily eradicated. In most cases, the causes and effects of poverty interact, so that what makes people poor also creates conditions that keep them poor. | Saying goes, “Give a man fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.” - this should be the guiding principle of our political leadership on how to solve the problem on poverty but People itself should also help themselves. | Ending poverty is a daunting challenge. However, since it was made by human rules and institutions, new ones can unmake it. People itself should applied what they have learned in school so that they will be able to have a good and more opportunities. Forgive international debt unconditionally and stop other predatory tactics. End the use of economic power as a means by which the wealthy control the poor. | 2.

...Michael May PHL/458 June 5, 2013 John Smith Creative Process The creative process is one that people use every day, (Passive voice – suggest “People use the creative process every day, “) whether they realize it or not. The creative process includes four stages: searching for challenges, expressing the problem or issue, investigating the problem or issue, and then producing ideas (Ruggiero, V. R. (2009). (Repeated error – do not include author initials or first names with in-text citations – use “(Ruggiero, 2009)”. In personal experience, I have noticed that I used the creative process while trying to improve conditions at the various places in which I was (word tense – use “have been”) employed. A big thing at Gateway Cold Storage was that the pick path, or the way in which products were arranged on the warehouse floor was not conducive in creating a path that was conducive to generating speed and getting more items loaded in a more efficient manner. (some informal language, vague pronouns, missing commas, and passive voice – try “At Gateway Cold Storage, the pick path, or how products are arranged on the warehouse floor, was not conductive. A quicker and more efficient system for loading items was needed.”) Searching for challenges would be to (passive voice – try “involves”) going out and looking for ways to improve the way you live life. The book states that the first stage of the creative process represents the habit of searching for challenges constantly and...

...between Social Policy and Sociology. (33 Marks) Sociology is a subject that wants to study and understand society. Social policy or otherwise known as the law comes from research completed by sociologists, which is then proposed to the government. Social policy can be seen to change social problems such as the economy. Peter Worsley describes a social problem as “some piece of social behaviour that causes public friction”. For example poverty, educational under-achievement, and divorce can be seen as social problems that the government may be forced to tackle with social policies. Worsley thinks that a sociological problem is “ any pattern of relationships that calls for explanation”, meaning any piece of behaviour that we want to make sense of. For example why some families are richer than others? , Why people commit crime? Or why couples remain happily married? George Simmel was intrigued about the characteristics present in all social relationships and their different settings, be it in an office, in the family home or on a busy street. However many sociologists are interested in solving social problems through their research. They will conduct their research so it is aimed at the social problem they are most interested about. Government departments such as home office employ many sociologists. They will often have a direct input into making social policies. However sometimes sociological research does not effect social polices, and there are a number of reasons why. Electoral...

When doing an equation problem and you haven’t done them in a long time it can cause must confusion. With these two projects it was kind of challenging to me because it has been a while since we have done these. But as you can see from the working that I have done before it comes back to you eventually. The problems below show all the steps to doing these two projects Project 1 Problem C: x2+12x-64=0 a) Move constant term to the right side of the equation. x2+12x-64+64= 0+64 x2+ 12x = 64 b) Multiply each term in the equation by four times the coefficient of the x2 term: x2+ 12x= 64 (4)x2+(4)12x = 64(4) 4x2+48x = 256 c) Square the coefficient of the original x term and add it to both sides of the equation. The original x term is 12 so you have to 12 squared which = 144. So I then added 144 to both sides. 4x2+ 48x +144 = 256 + 144= 400 MAT 126 Week 3 Assignment Projects on working equation problems Get Tutorial by Clicking on...

...different from either of them. So they are packed without any gaps and can not be separated from their immediate neighbors. In that sense they are not discrete. In this course we will be concerned with objects such as integers, propositions, sets, relations and functions, which are all discrete. We are going to learn concepts associated with them, their properties, and relationships among them among others. Why Discrete Mathematics ? Let us first see why we want to be interested in the formal/theoretical approaches in computer science. Some of the major reasons that we adopt formal approaches are 1) we can handle infinity or large quantity and indefiniteness with them, and 2) results from formal approaches are reusable. As an example, let us consider a simple problem of investment. Suppose that we invest $1,000 every year with expected return of 10% a year. How much are we going to have after 3 years, 5 years, or 10 years ? The most naive way to find that out would be the brute force calculation. Let us see what happens to $1,000 invested at the beginning of each year for three years. First let us consider the $1,000 invested at the beginning of the first year. After one year it produces a return of $100. Thus at the beginning of the second year,...

...Problems with My Hometown The biggest problem I see with my hometown; Reno, NV, is that the downtown areas of Reno have an incredibly high crime rate compared to that of the surrounding areas in the Reno/Sparks area. Downtown Reno is supposed to be a place where locals and tourists can gather and experience the many attractions centered around the Truckee river and numerous casinos. However, most locals see it as being a rundown, dangerous place which turns many people away. If downtown Reno does not see some major changes I believe that it will start to see less and less attention and will cause city officials to spend millions to make the area a more suitable attraction for locals and tourists. As someone who was born, raised, and has lived nearly their whole life in the city I have seen and experienced some of the many problems within the downtown area. These problems make it so that families and kids should only go there during the day and when an event is happening, otherwise children can be exposed to some ugly things that they should not have to witness. Drugs, alcohol, and the homeless are a few of the big downsides to downtown Reno that need to be cleaned up. The harsh reality is that no matter what you may be doing there, you will always see some sort of illegal activity going on. I find this rather appalling due to the fact that the Reno Police Department is centered in downtown Reno, not to mention it is only a few blocks away from one of the most crime...

...the assembly line runs more efficiently. 1. What, if at all, does the current defect handling for defective seats deviate from the Toyota Production System and Lean? The most significant deviation from TPS is the fact that the defective seat is installed and allowed to continue on the line until the end, where it is put in a holding area until a new seat can be installed. This is completely contrary to the concept of jidoka, or making problems self-evident and stopping production when problems were detected. The problem was moved to a holding area, where some cars remained for weeks waiting to be fixed. In addition, the line workers appeared puzzled when questioned about the defective seats--because the problem was not visible to them, they did not realize the extent of the problem, and, as a result, did not focus time and energy on developing a solution. This process also creates waste in the form of transportation and waiting. The seats are first moving to the Code 1 clinic area, then if the seat cannot be fixed there, the car is moved again to an overflow parking area where a new seat is reordered. While the principle of jikdoka requires that the line stop until the problem is solved, TMM simply created a work-around by moving cars that required more time to be fixed from the Code 1 clinic area to another waiting area--the problem simply moved down the line again without being corrected. When the leadership team met to discuss the problem, they also did not follow...
