...Coach tries to pump everyone up for the big race tomorrow but all you can hear are the sniffles coming from all the the runners. Everyone shivers as a cool, fall breeze passes through the group. As coaches speech drags to an end we all thank him, and get our stuff to leave. Everyone jokes around per usual, though there is a dense fog of stress hanging in the air. Tomorrow is the biggest cross country race of the season. If the team does good then they get to stay running for another week and go to regionals, but if they have a bad race their season will end right there without states. As Sarah returns home from practice with her older brother Adam, she remembers her last race. She remembers how little water she drank and how much it affected...

...about the country you will live in is very important because you will be informed about the cultures and customs of the country. Also researching what cities are safe to live in and what cities are dangerous is good way of keeping yourself safe and out of trouble. Make sure to research living situations is it mostly apartment/condo living or is it houses? Knowing that information is good for when you are packing because you will know how much space you will have. A good way of research is finding a group on a social media website and asking them questions about the country and living situations. This step will be the most important step out of all three. Having the right paperwork and documentation is very important or you can get in serious trouble and or road blocks along the way. Making sure you know what you need is important. For example if you do not already have a passport make sure you apply for one right away because it can take a while to receive it. Next if you plan on working you must apply for a work visa in order to be able to get a job and work legally. Make sure to know if the country you are going to needs an entry visa beforehand or no. for example when going to South Korea you get a 90 entry visa which means you can only be in the country for 90 days and then have to leave and...

...against the group happened when I was in college. I worked at clothing store at the local mall. One of the requirements for working there was that you had to wear the clothes that were sold there or clothes similar to them. After working there for a month or so I stumbled upon a few of the girls taking clothes off the shelf and putting them in the back room. I was then told that sometimes the girls there would “borrow the clothes and wear them to work in that day and then put them back on the shelf for customers to buy. I did speak up and tell them I thought it was wrong. They then informed me that even the manager of the store did it. That she would even get merchandise and take it home and keep the tags there and pay for some of the stuff a little bit along. I was in shock. I proceeded by calling the home office and calling the district manager and reporting the issue. A few weeks later the district manager came in the store. I was then fired. All the girls told the district manager that I was causing arguments within the group and I was a trouble maker. I did find out later that the home office did their own investigation in the store and all of the girls even the manager ended up getting fired. Even though I was fired from the job, I felt good about doing the right thing. I could have easily conform to the group for the sake of my job but due to my ethical beliefs I could not do...

...20 September 2011 Topic Proposal The topic that I am using from the Affluenza book is Stuff Wars at the Airport on page 35. The angle that I am approaching this topic is from an airport employee stance. I worked at an international airport in several different capacities and think it provides a unique perspective. My guiding questions will be the basic such as: * What is the topic? * Why has this topic been chosen? * What is the focus of the topic? * How is the perspective and understanding conveyed to the reader? The concerns for this topic are the type of information that can be found other than personal experiences but believe that resources can be found in several areas on the internet, online databases, and library. Deciding on how specific is another concern, but believe that staying within the confines of the stuff wars specifically at the airport will keep the topic within the boundaries of the project. It is difficult to determine the time frame it will take to research the topic. It will take approximately two weeks to come up with an appropriate thesis and outline for the project. It could take two weeks to focus the topic on specific questions to ask but as soon as that is complete, it is easy to make a list of factual and interpretive questions for the reader to understand the research. After all has been completed, the research has a good foundation and is ready to start. To complete the essay will take one week to compile, rewrite, and finish...

...of the inventory. When everything is said and done it equals out to the cost of the goods that have been sold. Cost of goods sold is the accumulated total of all the costs used to create a product or service in this case it is which has been sold. All of these costs fall into a general sub category of direct labor as well as the materials, and overhead stock. The cost of goods sold is considered to be a part of the labor and payroll taxes. Beginning Inventory |+ |Purchases |- |Ending Inventory |= |Cost of Goods Sold | |$600 |+ |$1500 |- |$400 |= |$1700 | |$800 |+ |$2400 |- |$600 |= |$2600 | |There is also a first in and first out method that helps with keeping track of the inventory. So when things come in the stuff that is older should move forward and the new stuff should go in back. I believe that when it comes down to it the way we handle the sales of the products then the company should not have a problem with keeping track of the funds coming in and going out. Below I have added the example of how it should work. I have done two different...

...living situation and her background. When he was done talking with the client, we started the paperwork. I started asking the questions on the forms, my supervisor would step in to explain something or ask more questions. After the initial paperwork was filled out we had to go over forms that the client had to sign. Although I was able to remember some of the stuff on the forms, I was unable to remember everything on them, so my supervisor stepped in to better explain the forms. In the end the intake took around an hour to complete. After the intake, my supervisor stated that I did okay, just that I need to work on being able to explain LINK services and what the paperwork states, as well as being more comfortable exploring with questions. During the intake, I felt pressure to be able to explain things properly, which is partially the cause of forgetting things. I also felt that I wasn’t really given that much opportunity to explore some of the questions because my supervisor took over. It was almost as if I was thinking too much into it and was too worried about during the intake properly that mind spaced on some of the stuff that I was supposed to go over. As far as the NASW Code of Ethics, there are a few values or principles that were evident in the situation. The first one deals with competence, although it is important to be knowledgeable and apply past experience into practice, it can be hard sometimes. Since I am still in the learning process, I need to accept that not everything...

...The reasonable man standard is a standard in criminal law and it is used for the good of the criminally accused. The definition of the “reasonable man” standard is the decision of whether an accused is guilty of a given offense that might involve the application of an objective test in which the accused is compared to that of a reasonable person under similar circumstances. In most cases, persons with greater than average skills, or with special duties to society, are held to a higher standard of care. The reasonable man is not used often but it is used when the court is in a pickle, when they can’t decide whether or not the criminally accused acted out or it was just an accident. A jury can usually decide whether or not the accused has acted as a reasonable person would have acted in the same situation. After the decision, the jury generally will consider the accused persons conduct in light of what the defendant actually knows, experienced, or has perceived of the situation. In addition to the accused actual knowledge, a jury also considers the knowledge that should be common to everyone in the given situation(3). When we get beyond the thought of what the accused actually knew, the problem gets more in depth and complicated, and the authorities less lenient. Although a few propositions call for a good deal of support. Only if the actor has a physical impairment of personality or is insane or a child, he must be fully attentive to his surroundings to perceive what the...

...“The Story of Stuff” is a short video created by The Story of Stuff project in 2007. In the video, writers Annie Leonard and Jonah Sachs describe the process of turning natural resources into consumer goods, then into waste. The writers describe a seemingly linear five-step process: extraction, production, distribution, consumption, and disposal. Leonard and Sachs describe a carefully-scripted culture of unsustainable consumption and waste. The extraction phase of “The Story of Stuff” refers to the removal of natural resources such as timber, natural gas, coal, oil, and water. The writers emphasize the unsustainability of this phase, especially in the United States. The video states that the United States holds 5% of the world’s population but uses 30% of the world’s natural resources and creates over 30% of the world’s waste. This is a staggering statistic. Four percent of the United States’ forests remain. FOUR PERCENT. How much longer will it be before trees are things read about in storybooks (digitally printed of course, as there are no more natural resources to harvest.) The production phase is described as the addition of toxic chemicals to natural resources in order to produce the “stuff” we want. Please note the use of the word “want,” not “need.” The authors note that over 100,000 synthetic chemicals are commercially available today and are regularly used in production. Of those 100,000 synthetic chemicals, very few have been tested in a significant way to measure...

But by layering game-play mechanics over the job — making the application of rivets seem like solving a puzzle in an adventure maze, for example — even repetitive, menial tasks can become less onerous, perhaps even fun.
