Competencies Addressed in This Discussion

Introduction

There is a general consensus in the public that terrorism has changed in the last decades. Specifically, just prior to 9/11, there was a change in tactics and motivations behind most of the acts we see today. Before this change, the traditional terrorist had a specific goal in mind and made attacks against, more or less, those impeding their goals. These attacks were implemented to cause destruction of property or personal violence upon those with whom they had the grievance. Since the change, the motivations of terrorists have become much more general in who they consider a target, and much larger in scale, so as to involve even those who do not have a personal stake in the alleged grievances—innocents. On the other hand, there are those that say that the change is not actually due to a change in tactics, but due to a change in reporting and perceptions. We will explore both sides of this debate.

Suppose that as captain of the local police municipality, you are continuing your study into terrorism and the history of the related motives, methods, and desired results. Last week, you submitted your historical framework memo to your chief, and, in doing so, came across an intriguing concept, new terrorism. As you studied the history of terrorism, you began to wonder how, or what, caused this change to come about. As you began to look into the term, new terrorism, you found that there is debate in the scholarly world as to the existence, or at least the extent, of this concept.

At your department, you have established a discussion chatroom with other senior staff. It was set up so that senior staff could interject their knowledge and suggestions as your project for the chief develops. You have elected to introduce the idea of a new terrorism for their discussion and input.

Response Guidelines

Respond to at least two other learners. When responding to your peers, identify whether their definition of new terrorism matches your perception of the term. Explain the match or why your definition was different. What additional perspective can you share about the motivations and tactics of the new terrorist pointed out by other learners? How was your perspective impacted after reviewing the posts of other learners?

Discussion 2

• Non-Muslim Terrorist Groups

Competencies Addressed in This Discussion

Introduction

All of the attention that terrorist acts by Muslim extremists get in the press may lead one to believe that they have a monopoly on the act of terrorism. They do not. In fact, they do not commit anywhere near the majority of terrorist acts in the U.S. In order to fully understand the impact of terrorism upon law enforcement, and to keep from becoming deceived into believing that Muslim extremism is the only problem, it is imperative to investigate these other forms of terrorism.

Return the scenario in which you are the captain of your local police municipality. During a staff meeting this week, some of the other members made offhand comments as to the extent, and media coverage, of religious-based terrorism in the world. They mentioned that it seems that Muslims are the predominate terrorists. Having studied the concept of terrorism thoroughly, you know that while the current attention is on extremists that advocate for Islam, they are neither the spokespersons for all Muslims nor are they the only terrorist threat law enforcement must be prepared for. After you shared this information with the group, to make sure that they do not develop a fear of Muslims in general, the command staff expressed an interest in the terrorist organizations that were not associated with Islam and asked if you would provide them with information for discussion and debate.

Discussion Objectives

The best example of where I outperformed my expectations in a class was in EMS training. We were taking tests on two or three chapters daily. I had one of the highest grades in the class because I was motivated and driven to learn. This was all exciting because it was new to me. During class I figured out if I wrote it down in class and spoke it out loud to myself later that night while studying I retained the knowledge better. When I didn’t understand I wasn’t afraid to ask questions because everything was new to me. We helped each other as a group but reaching out to the instructors to form study sessions would’ve made our performance better. Usually in a group everyone will have different strengths and weaknesses which will help everyone.

agree or disagree with 2- 3 sentences

Option #1: Fraud Detection

Trina Jones is the night manager of a local doughnut shop that is running successfully. The shop is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. It is not busy at night, so Trina runs the shop by herself. She makes deposits every morning at the local bank before going home.

Also, none of the other employees wants to work at night. Since opening eight months ago, Trina cannot find anyone to work the night shift, so she has not missed one night of work as a result.

Trina feels overworked and underpaid. The owner of the shop, Chris Barker, has often praised Trina for her hard work and dedication to the company. But, Chris is concerned that a couple times a week, an entire batch of doughnuts is thrown away with the reasoning that they have been overbaked and are not suitable for sale. Other than that, Trina has been an ideal employee.

Recently, Trina has yelled at people on the shifts before or after hers for seemingly insignificant reasons. She was hired as manager because she seemed quite personable. Indeed, for most of her employment, she has gotten along with everyone and been very easygoing. But business has been slowing down lately, so Trina does not have much interaction with people all night long. She has also been stating that she has not been getting enough sleep lately.

Yesterday, Trina came to work in a brand new Lexus. She said her grandfather helped her purchase the car.

In a well-written paper, answer the following questions:

• What areas of the business are most at risk for fraud?
• Identify any symptoms of fraud that appear to exist at the doughnut shop.
• What steps could be taken to reduce opportunities for fraud?
• Assess the impact of any fraud.

Adhere to the following standards:

• The paper should be 3-4 pages in length, not counting the title or references pages, which must be included.
• Review the grading rubric, which can be accessed from the Course Information page.
• Be sure to follow the CSU-Global Guide to Writing and APA Requirements.

Support your interpretation with evidence from the textbook and a minimum of one peer-reviewed journal article, other than the articles from this module’s required readings. Please USE CRITICAL THINKING AND SUPPORT.

I will be providing some of the articles required to be used for the paper, you can add more if you will like. Please provide in text citations. I had situations before where the tutor never added in text citation or anything from the reference list.

Other readers probably have not read the article, so the review should not only describe the work, but also evaluate it.
Include each of the following within your article review:

An introduction to the article
The key points from the article
A summary of the article’s conclusion

An evaluation of the article, to include:

Why is this article important?

Was the article well written (organized, easy to understand, etc.)?

What is your perspective and opinion on the article?

The completed article review has to be a minimum of three (3) full pages in length, not including the title page, abstract, and
reference page. The article review should be written in paragraph format. This article review requires APA style formatting,
including the citing of key points and material utilizing in-text citations and references.

Case and Discussion

A 60-year-old man comes to your office because of a persistent cough that has been bothering him for the past 3 months. His cough is dry and is more frequent during the evenings. He also notes frequent nasal congestion, especially when he is exposed to dust and cold weather. He reports no hemoptysis, weight loss, wheezing, fever, or changes in his appetite. What additional questions would you ask to learn more about his cough?

• How would you classify his cough based on the duration to help with the diagnosis?
• What diagnostic tests do you want to include to help you with your diagnosis?

Create a differential diagnosis flow sheet for this patient for this patient and include the diagnostics as well as the pharmacological management and rationale related to the differentials. Support your discussion with evidence-based research.
