elect a location in any of the these cities in the sate of Arizona (Tempe or chandler or phoenix), go there, and undertake a site analysis.  The location should be an outdoor site that is used by people and should be of modest size so you can incorporate some detail about it. You will want to consider both environmental and cultural factors in order to understand how the site currently works and perhaps how well it may have been designed in the first place.  Site analysis is an important step in the design process that helps a designer understand the influencing factors that should be considered.

 

Complete the following tasks as thoroughly as possible based on what you are able to observe about site characteristics and how people using the site are responding to site conditions.

 

1. On a separate sheet, make a plan view sketch of the site and the elements included within or bounding it (i.e. sidewalks, landscaped areas, buildings, benches, lighting, etc.).Be sure to label these elements. A plan view is looking from above.  It doesn’t have to be properly scaled.

 

 

 

2. Describe the natural elements on the site and interpret how they may influence the use of the site by people and animals (i.e. vegetation, soil, water, wind, etc.)

 

 

 

 

 

3. Describe the human-made elements of the site and interpret how they are used and influence activity on the site (i.e. paving, benches, lighting, buildings, etc.)

 

 

 

 

4. Describe sensory elements on the site and interpret how they might affect the activities of humans and animals (i.e. noise, light, temperature, odors, etc.).

 

 

 

 

 

5. Provide an overview of how you think all of these conditions affect the use of the site.Make any suggestions that you might have about how you might make this site function better for its intended use.  Make any suggestions about how this site could be made more sustainable (conserving resources, provide greater levels of human comfort, using local materials, incorporating multiple uses, etc.).

 

 

 

 

Ethical Dilemmas, Breaches, and Leadership Consequences

Government and nonprofit leaders encounter ethical dilemmas regularly as they perform their duties. When leaders do not address ethical dilemmas appropriately, dilemmas become ethical breaches with possible dire consequences. For instance, former President Bill Clinton encountered an ethical dilemma upon meeting intern Monica Lewinsky and considering whether or not to pursue a personal relationship with her. When he decided to pursue a personal relationship with her, he committed an ethical breach. Some ethical dilemmas and breaches may be considered more subtle. Consider a seemingly minor incident such as a mayor using a city vehicle to run a personal errand or contracting family for high-paying city jobs. Understanding the full range of potential ethical dilemmas and considering the consequences of ethical breaches are the first steps to being a strong government or nonprofit leader.

 

Focus on the ethical challenges facing government leaders.

 

Identify a contemporary ethical dilemma that you heard or read about in the news confronting either a government or nonprofit leader.

 

Think about the nature and severity of the ethical dilemma and why it might be considered an ethical breach.

 

Submit 150 – 500 word response: Due by Thursday 10/15/15 a brief description of the government or nonprofit leader and the ethical dilemma he or she is confronting. Then explain the nature and severity of the ethical dilemma and why it might be considered an ethical breach. Finally, explain the actual or potential consequences of that ethical breach to the leader.

 

Journal

 

Think about when you have faced a difficult ethical dilemma in your own life. Explain how and why you made the choice that you did. Having the benefit of hindsight, would you make the same choice today? (1 page)

 

Support your work with specific citations from the Learning Resources. You are allowed to draw from additional sources to support your explanation, but you must cite using APA standards. All quoted material must be identified, cited, and referenced per APA standards.

STRONOMY.   Answer the questions using your own words only.. Do NOT plagarize. Answer each question sepreatly, does not have to be a long answer.

1. Which is the most massive planet in the solar system? a. Earth, b. Neptune, c. Saturn, d. Jupiter, e. Mercury 2. Which of the following planets does NOT have rings? Choose only one. (a) Mars; (b) Uranus; (c) Neptune; (d) Saturn; (e) Jupiter. 9. What is liquid metallic hydrogen? Which planets contain this substance? What [conditions produce] this form of hydrogen? 16. Why do features in Saturn’s atmosphere appear much fainter and “washed out” than comparable features in Jupiter’s atmosphere? 17. Explain how shepherd satellites affect some planetary rings. Is “shepherd satellites” an appropriate term for these objects? Explain your answer. 26. Explain why Triton will never collide with Neptune, even though it is spiraling toward that Planet. 37. What IF: Jupiter, at its present location, were a star? What would Earth be like? (Hint: Recall that to be a star, Jupiter would have to have 75 times more mass than it has today.) [To make the question a little less open-ended, let’s give it a mass of 0.1 times that of the Sun, which is 100× its current mass. Such a star will have a light/heat output of 0.001 that of the Sun.]
