Discuss all aspects of plan parenthood and how it relates to health care in the united states.

Ambiguity (not vagueness, but a “complex” or double nature) has been a persistent theme throughout our readings this semester. For your final paper, choose three authors, and explain the central ambiguity in human nature described by each. First, explain what the ambiguity located by each author is. Second, how does the author suggest we should live in light of this ambiguity. Thirdly, synthesize these views to provide your own stance on human nature: is there a centre.

What does the American Dream mean in today’s world? Is it still feasible or merely a myth in 2015? Establish your understanding of what the Dream is and use Brandon King’s “The American Dream: Dead, Alive, or on Hold?” and Cal Thomas’s “Is the American Dream Over?” to help illustrate your argument. Develop a “hook” that will draw your reader’s attention. Provide a three-to-four sentence summary of the articles in the introduction, and make certain to introduce the title of the articles and its respective writer. Use at least ONE secondary source outside the article. This source should reflect the views of critics of literature as well as the informative views of expert opinion and use academic sources not wiki etc . Make sure that the sources relate to your argument making certain to maintain third-person point of view. Merely summarizing the plays or articles will earn you a D at best. Rather, I want a consistent, convincing argument that draws parallels between your subject and the work you examine.

IT IS A RESEARCH PROPOSAL OUTLINE!! This outline will depend much on your topic, but will most likely be between 3-6 pages. Use important literature research, background, preliminary findings etc, which you completed in the literature searching assignment within the outline. Include the references only. Your outline should include the following: -Problem/Question -Body (background, preliminary findings and the literature search. For the body, stay in outline format and include topics with references. This will be the largest portion of your paper. For example, 1. -Background on Asbestos (http://users.rcn.com/leadsafe/asbestos.html 2. -symptoms of Asbestos (www.webmd.com/lung/asbestos-exposure) 3. -Studies of Asbestos (www.cancer.org/ssLINK/asbestos) -Discussions (interviews, current discussions regarding this problem) -Research Methodology (whether research studies will be performed and if so qualitative or quantitative analysis -Conclusion (Since you are not completed the research project/paper, I am looking for a short summary of your research methodology studies) Remember to include references from your literature research also.

I AM PASTING THE LINK OF THE JETBLUE CASE BELOW SO PLEASE READ THE CASE THOROUGHLY AND REFER TO THE CASE AS MUCH AS YOU CAN WHEN DISCUSSING THE ISSUE. ALSO, MAKE SURE ALL THE RECOMMENDATIONS YOU PROVIDE SOUND REALISTIC. AND ALSO, PROVIDE THE PROS AND CONS OF THE CASE IN THE CASE ANALYSIS PAPER.

The idea of the Case Analysis is to examine a real-life crisis, show a clear understanding of what took place, and then critique the company/individual in terms of how the crisis was managed. You are to analyze what was done well and what perhaps could have been orchestrated better and why. I’m looking for your take on the crisis and your ideas about how it could have been handled better. You should focus on the steps that were taken and how this influenced the overall management of the crisis, positively and negatively.

Discuss issues raised by the case in a focused, thorough and organized manner
Be creative – use your own ideas, refer to class discussions and readings; don’t rehash case history
Look at all sides before you make decisions about how the crisis was managed; cite pros v. cons
Use your analysis to thoroughly support your decision and/or recommendations

Diversity Audit/Research

Prepare a 4 page paper which explains your findings in detail. The paper should be free from spelling and grammatical errors. Make sure you cite all written web sources, journal articles and interviews in a bibliography, and contain exhibits, such as copies of the organizational value statements or company newsletters, if appropriate.

To summarize, your report should detail the strengths and weaknesses of the organization’s diversity initiatives. List the criteria (one page), provide some company background/history (one page), evaluate the organization’s efforts in terms of diversity, and make recommendations for improvement. Findings should include: The criteria you used for managing diversity in an organization. You can use secondary research to assist you. If you performed an audit of an organization in which you work or have worked: Indicate who authorized the audit (a manager or a human resource leader). Identify the people you interviewed, their function(s) and level(s) (i.e. levels: VP, manager, supervisor, and functions: human resources, training, operations).

If you performed research on one of the top 10 companies identified by DiversityInc as a company that demonstrates the business case for diversity, include a literature review of your research on that company. The literature review should include sources from scholarly and professional journals describing the performance of the organization as it relates to diversity, in addition to the organization’s website that you are researching. The literature review should include a bibliography of sources and a brief paragraph describing the contents of the source.
•Include the list of the thoughtful questions regarding diversity used in the interview/research.
•Indicate whether you toured the company and any copies of the company newsletters, value statements, and so forth. If you are using the DiversityInc firms, include these in your research as well as any websites you visited in your research.
•Evaluate what you have learned about the company in terms of diversity, comparing it against the criteria you established. Be sure to pay attention to subtle cues (i.e. is there evidence that they really do what they say they do). For example, a manager proudly pointed out that his large retail organization hired physically challenged workers. However, they were all assigned to work in the stockroom, where they were never seen by any customers. Or a company who is recognized for their hiring of the disabled, have no disabled employees visible on their website. Feel free to add additional criteria that you did not think of after the interview/visit or research was completed.

How the popular press (i.e. LIFE magazine) portrays the labor movement from 1935-1947 (Wagner Act to Taft-Hartley Act) Does it correspond with historians’ narratives of the labor movement (secondary sources: Nelson Lichtenstein, Martin Glaberman…)

Use LIFE magazine (1935-1947) as primary sources. (these can be found via Google Books)

Topic – Popular messages and working class identity
Labor history/popular culture
Argument – three eras of popular press labor images. Use these primary sources to show how World War II deradicalized/weakened the labor movement.

FINAL EXAM

Open up the dataset State Fragility and answer the following questions:

The dataset State Fragility can be found here:
https://www.systemicpeace.org/inscrdata.html

1) Which country is the most fragile (on average by year) based on the State Fragility Index?
2) Which country is the least fragile (on average by year) based on the State Fragility Index?
3) Does Region 1 or Region 2 display a greater lack of legitimacy based on the Legitimacy Index?

4) Is there a significantly different level of security, political, economic and social effectiveness between regions 1 and 2?

5) Do any regions have significant differences when it comes to the Effectiveness Index and the Legitimacy Index?

6) Which of the two variables are most strongly and significantly correlated with each other?

7) Which one of the variables predict best State Fragility?

Write a two- page (double- spaced, 12- point Times New Roman font, 1- inch margins) essay on each of the following three topics. TO BE CLEAR: IN THIS ASSIGNMENT YOU MUST WRITE THREE ESSAYS: ONE ON TOPIC (1) AND ONE ON TOPIC (2) AND ONE ON TOPIC (3). EACH ESSAY MUST BE TWO PAGES IN LENGTH FOR A TOTAL OF SIX PAGES.

Your essays should NOT include any introduction, conclusion, footnotes, bibliography, or any other paraphernalia of the standard college term paper. Avoid the use of jargon (any term that would be unfamiliar to someone who has not taken a philosophy course) and ‘- isms’ (for example, ‘relativism,’ ‘subjectivism,’ ‘nihilism’) UNLESS you give a precise definition of the term with its first occurrence in your essay. Best to play it safe, though: a philosophical essay ought to be written in clear, and so short, declarative sentences.

(1) In John Perry’s A Dialogue on Personal Identity and Immortality, Gretchen Weirob argues that even if a person has a soul, sameness of person (or personal identity) can’t consist in sameness of soul. Explain how Gretchen argues for this conclusion by answering the following questions. Why does she think we can’t know whether the principle ‘Same body, same soul’ is true? How does she argue from the fact that we don’t know whether that principle is true to the conclusion that we can’t know whether any person at one point in time is identical to (the same person as) a person at a later point in time. And how does Gretchen use that conclusion to argue that sameness of person does not consist in sameness of soul?

(2) In Death, Shelly Kagan claims that “there are some implications of rejecting the existence requirement that may be rather hard to swallow” (p. 217). What is the version of the existence requirement that appears as a premise in Epicurus’ argument? What are the implications of rejecting it that Kagan finds hard to swallow? (Hint: here you need to explain what a possible person is and how they are harmed.) How can these implications be avoided by adopting what Kagan calls the “modest” version of the existence requirement? What if any counter- intuitive implications does the modest existence requirement have?

(3) Kagan thinks that death can be, and very often is, bad for the person who dies (and this is so because death deprives that person of the goods of life). But Kagan denies that it is reasonable or appropriate to fear death. Explain as clearly as you can his view. What are the conditions he places on reasonable or appropriate fear? What are the different things he thinks we might fear in 2 fearing death? And why does he think it isn’t reasonable or appropriate to fear any of these things?
