Levy Family Episode 3Program Transcript  JAKE LEVY: We’d be out on recon in our Humvees, and it would get so hot. We used to put our water bottles in wet socks and hang them right outside the window just so the water would cool off of a bit, and maybe then you could drink it.  Man, it was cramped in there. You’d be drenched, nowhere to breathe. It’s like riding around in an oven. And you’d have your helmet on you, 100 pounds of gear and ammo. I swear, sometimes I feel like it’s still on me, like it’s all still strapped on me.  FEMALE SPEAKER: How many tours did you do in Iraq?  JAKE LEVY: Three. After that last recon, I just–There were 26 of us. Five marines in the Humvee I was in. I remember I was wearing my night vision goggles. We passed through a village and everything was green, like I was in a dream or under water.  And then there was a flash, bright light just blinded me. There was this explosion. I can’t–I can’t-¬ FEMALE SPEAKER: It’s OK, Jake. Take it easy. I understand this is difficult. There’s something I;d like to try with you. It’s called exposure therapy, and it’s a treatment that’s used a lot with war veterans, especially those struggling with anxiety and PTSD.  JAKE LEVY: Exposure therapy?  FEMALE SPEAKER: Yes. It’s to help someone like yourself to confront your feelings and anxieties about a traumatic situation that you’ve experienced. It’s a-¬It’s meant to help you get more control of your thoughts, to make sense of what’s happened, and to not be so afraid of your memories.  JAKE LEVY: Put that in a bottle and I’ll buy 10 cases of it.  FEMALE SPEAKER: Well, one part of it is learning to control your breathing. And when you practice that, you can learn to manage your anxiety, to get more control of it, not let it control you, to protect yourself. Do you want to try it?  JAKE LEVY: Right now?  FEMALE SPEAKER: Sure.  JAKE LEVY: Why not?  Levy Family Episode 3  FEMALE SPEAKER: OK. Well, I know this sounds crazy, but a lot of people don’t breathe properly. And it really comes from bad habits. When they inhale and exhale, all the effort is here in their chest and shoulders. And the problem with that is you get a really short, shallow breath. And that really increases the stress and anxiety in your body.  Instead, a more natural breath should always involve your diaphragm, right here in your abdomen. When you breath in, your belly should expand. And when you breath out, your belly should fall. OK?  JAKE LEVY: OK.  FEMALE SPEAKER: So, let’s practice. Close your eyes. Now, I want you put one hand on your abdomen and the other across your chest. Good. Good. Now, I just want you to take a few breaths, just like normal. What are you feeling?  JAKE LEVY: I feel my chest moving up and down. But my belly, nothing.  FEMALE SPEAKER: OK. So that’s what I was just talking about. That’s OK. Let’s try this. I want you take a breath. And this time, I only want you to allow your abdomen to expend when you breathe in and to fall when you breathe out.  OK, let’s try it. Breathe in. Breathe out. Breathe in. Breathe out.  You feeling better? More relaxed?  JAKE LEVY: Yes.  FEMALE SPEAKER: And the more you practice it the easier it will become. So when you find that stress and anxiety coming on, just do your breathing. You can keep yourself from getting swept by all those bad thoughts. OK?  JAKE LEVY: Yes. Thank you.  FEMALE SPEAKER: So, do you want to try to go back to what you were telling me about before?  JAKE LEVY: I can try. It was night. We were out on recon. It was my third tour in Iraq.  Levy Family Episode 3 Additional Content Attribution  MUSIC: ©2013 Laureate Education, Inc.   Discussion – Week 10  COLLAPSE  Title for work #3 Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder While historically post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) has been addressed chiefly as an issue faced by veterans, it has only been quite recently that the awareness of the impact of war has begun to increase. As veterans return from combat, we are learning even more clearly the dire need for mental health approaches to address the impact of war on soldiers. The media has started to highlight the need for interventions to address this mental health issue, publishing the staggering statistics on veteran suicides. According to the Suicide Data Report, 2012 (Kemp & Bossarte, 2013, p. 18), veterans and active duty military are taking their lives at the rate of 22 a day. This number can be reduced with the proper type of prevention and intervention strategies. Consider Jake Levy and his struggle with PTSD, and the most recent interventions used to address its symptoms. For this Discussion, review the program case study for the Levy family.  Title for work #3 Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder Work #3 Answer in APA format with 2 citations per paragraph treat each answer as a separate work or file and each work or file needs separate references.  Support your posts with specific references to the Learning Resources. Be sure to provide full APA citations for your references, treat each work as a separate file Post  your description of the interventions used by the practitioner.

Ashford 5: – Week 4 – Discussion 1

 

Your initial discussion thread is due on Day 3 (Thursday) and you have until Day 7 (Monday) to respond to your classmates. Your grade will reflect both the quality of your initial post and the depth of your responses. Reference the Discussion Forum Grading Rubric for guidance on how your discussion will be evaluated.

 

     

Internal   Communication

 Internally, it may be necessary to communicate persuasively to a boss, peer, or subordinate. In a 250-300 word response, evaluate how or if your communication would differ in each situation. Would there be differences in the decision making process when involving these individuals? Use at least one resource to support your key points. Respond to at least two of your fellow students’ posts. 

Project Two: Film Analysis

  

Description :

This assignment is intended to have you take a more critical look at a popular film or documentary in which culture plays a major theme and to analyze the anthropological content of the film. You will select a film from the list below and use that as your “data” for an ethnographic analysis. Most of the films listed can be found online through YouTube, Netflix or Hulu and at worst, can be rented through Amazon for no more than $3.99 or so.

 

Format:

A complete assignment should consist of 3-4 pages. The analysis should be typed using 10-12 pt font and be double-spaced, with 1-inch margins.

 

Instructions:

1. Select your film.

a. If you want to watch a film that is not on the list but in which culture plays a major role, talk to me about it. This list is large but not complete. However, your choice should be a film that you have not  seen before.

2. Watch the film. Consider how culture is part of the film. Think about these questions and take notes – your film may not relate to all of these:

a. Describe the element of culture and explain how it is represented.

b. What class concepts do you recognize in this film? This means any class concept from the beginning to the end of the semester.

c. Why is this topic important/interesting?

d. How do people relate to different cultures? How do people use culture to relate to each other?

e. What does the use, placement, or discussion of culture tell us about the larger society in which the film takes place?

f. What are the social groups, power relations, and personal interactions that typify the characters in the film? Analyze them as if they were people in a research project.

 

The key is to look at everything. Remember context. Culture can act as a framework, setting, lens, symbol, vehicle, material culture, event or focal point. Concentrate on the human behavior and how it describes the culture in that moment and in that setting—context is everything! Remember, be holistic and comparative. What does this film say about the society in which it is set? How does the exploration of culture help them say it?

3. Write your analysis. Include the following:

a. Introduction – what is this paper about? Briefly introduce the paper. Include a brief plot summary – talk about the movie – BRIEFLY – to set the context

b. Key themes and anthropological concepts found in the film. What anthropological concepts are illustrated in the film?  What aspects of culture are illustrated in the film?

c. Conclusion. What are you conclusions on the topic? Tie your analysis together in one final paragraph or two.

Accounting   Equation

 As you have learned in this week’s readings the Accounting Equation is Assets = Liabilities + Owners’ Equity.  Is the accounting equation true in all instances?  Provide sample transactions from your own experiences to demonstrate the validity of the Accounting Equation.  
 

Guided Response:
Review several of your peers’ postings and identify some core components that you feel should be included in every transaction.  Respond to at least two of your peers and provide recommendations to extend their thinking.  Challenge your peers by asking a question that may cause them to reevaluate or add components to their transactions.
