This paper will focus on violence as expressed through terrorism or genocide; students can choose either of these topics. Both of these are difficult to fully define as there are different perspectives on these behaviors, however there are official definitions from which to work. Students will need to define the behavior so it is clear what is being discussed; research the history, trends and patterns, who is doing this to whom, and specific types of this violence. Because either of these can be a broad topic, a focus on a particular example would be appropriate.

Attention should be given to the possible explanations for this type of violence. We may have our assumptions and beliefs for why these types of violence occur in our world today but we need to examine them in light of the empirical evidence shared in journal articles and government reports. How can this type of behavior be explained? It is a critical area to evaluate and causes/risk factors can range from individual to cultural, groups, etc.

Further, the paper should address what has been tried and is being tried to intervene and/or curtail this type of violence in the world. Most interventions presuppose a cause or explanation for the behavior. Again, there are some excellent resources available from journals and government reports. Punishment and/or government enforcement is generally considered necessary by most, but that alone has not been fully sufficient to prevent, or at times, even reduce these expressions of violence. The paper should conclude with your reasoned analysis on the topic based upon your research.

This paper is to be a minimum of 6 pages (not counting title and reference pages) with a minimum of 7 academic and primary sources.

OVERVIEW: Write a 4–5 page report in which you analyze data concerning CapraTek’s hiring and promotion practices using the attachments submitted.

Many U.S. laws, ordinances, and guidelines directly impact the hiring and selection process.

INSTRUCTIONS:

Read the scenario below.

Scenario

While planning for expansion, CapraTek is also concerned about its hiring and promotion practices at existing facilities. Management has asked for an analysis of the workforce in its flagship manufacturing facility. As the Recruiting Director for CapraTek’s major manufacturing facility you are concerned about the company’s hiring posture relative to women and minorities. Your manufacturing plant in a nearby major city especially worries you. You recently checked the latest statistics for the SMSA the plant is in and found the following:

• Females in the labor force: 35%
• Blacks in the labor force: 10%
• Hispanics in the labor force: 5%
• All other groups are 0%

To address your concerns you first looked at the selection statistics for the past 12 months. Note: This plant hires mostly unskilled laborers and then trains them. Here is what you found:

Hiring Statistics
	Total	Females	Blacks	Hispanics
Number applied	80	20	10	5
Number hired	20	6	3	1

Next you looked at your existing work force and found the following:

• Total: 450
• Females: 50
• Blacks: 22
• Hispanics: 20

Finally, you looked at how protected classes are being moved up in the plant. While workers are hired as unskilled laborers, that is not the whole story. There are two higher paying options open to them: they can become skilled machine operators (by passing an in-depth company run training program) and from there they can become line supervisors (this pays even more than the skilled jobs). You are concerned about how that program works also; the statistics are as follows:

Positions Within the Company
	Total	Females	Blacks	Hispanics
Unskilled workers	350	45	20	15
Skilled operators	50	1	2	3
Line supervisors	25	2	1	1

Note: The above totals do not add up to 450 or the work force totals because there are other jobs in the plant not used in this analysis.

Requirements

Using what you know about CapraTek’s hiring and promotion practices, prepare a report for top management addressing the following:

• Analyze the data for evidence of adverse impact using the 4/5ths rule. Consider the applicant flow.
• Analyze the data for evidence of adverse impact of employee utilization based on the relevant labor market for the state you chose in Assessment 1.
• Analyze the data for evidence of adverse impact on any protected class concentrated in lower-paying jobs.
• Assess CapraTek’s hiring and promotion practices to support its growth strategy.

Additional Requirements

• Write 4–5 typed, double-spaced pages (not including title page or references).
• Use Times New Roman font, 12 point.
• Include a title page and, if needed, a reference page.

The practice of health care providers at all levels brings you into contact with people from a variety of faiths. This calls for knowledge and acceptance of a diversity of faith expressions.

The purpose of this paper is to complete a comparative ethical analysis of George’s situation and decision from the perspective of two worldviews or religions: Christianity and a second religion of your choosing. For the second faith, choose a faith that is unfamiliar to you. Examples of faiths to choose from include Sikh, Baha’i, Buddhism, Shintoism, etc.

In your comparative analysis, address all of the worldview questions in detail for Christianity and your selected faith. Refer to Chapter 2 of Called to Care for the list of questions. Once you have outlined the worldview of each religion, begin your ethical analysis from each perspective.

In a minimum of 1,500-2,000 words, provide an ethical analysis based upon the different belief systems, reinforcing major themes with insights gained from your research, and answering the following questions based on the research:

1. How would each religion interpret the nature of George’s malady and suffering? Is there a “why” to his disease and suffering? (i.e., is there a reason for why George is ill, beyond the reality of physical malady?)
2. In George’s analysis of his own life, how would each religion think about the value of his life as a person, and value of his life with ALS?
3. What sorts of values and considerations would each religion focus on in deliberating about whether or not George should opt for euthanasia?
4. Given the above, what options would be morally justified under each religion for George and why?
5. Finally, present and defend your own view.

Support your position by referencing at least three academic resources (preferably from the GCU Library) in addition to the course readings, lectures, the Bible, and the textbooks for each religion. Each religion must have a primary source included. A total of six references are required according to the specifications listed above. Incorporate the research into your writing in an appropriate, scholarly manner.

i will be posting two other student articles and i need comment for them too please,

please also use normal and not big words in the writing. it is just a discussion

//======================================================================

Also please make make comment for these two students: something like you like their post and s short comments for each one.

here are the students posts: Student one :

“https://www.tennessean.com/story/news/health/2018/09/25/nashville-based-aspire-health-hacked-phishing-scheme-lost-health-information/1420135002/ (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.

My article talks about how a medical center got hacked because of a phishing attack. The hacker gained access into the company’s email account and then exported 124 emails with personal client information. The article isn’t as surprising as most of the other ones in the discussion but I found it interesting that something so simple as a phishing attack that we are trained to avoid all the time is what compromised hundred’s of peoples information. I always thought that I could easily spot a phishing attack, so it’s interesting that a big company with very sensitive information fell for a simple attack like phishing.”

Student two:

“https://taskandpurpose.com/gao-cyber-pentagon-weapons-hack/ (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.

This article I chose to talk about focuses on the cyber-security at the Pentagon and how, in test runs, Test Teams were sometimes able to get access to systems and sometimes even take control of them! It’s shocking because you would think that a place like The Pentagon would have the toughest security systems, but it reminded me of the talk we had in class one time where we acknowledged that no system can ever be truly secure. Luckily, these were just test runs and they are helpful in finding was to improve security for the future, and the article does state that The Pentagon seems to be getting better at making workers aware of these security risks. The next steps would be the improve the security in these systems themselves, systems that, some of which, are years old now and the article does state something we also talked about in class which was that it’s easier to secure a system when security is built into the system as it’s being developed, rather than it be added later. This is “more difficult and costly,” the article states. Cybersecurity as a never ending battle because technology just keeps constantly innovating, and I think this article is a good example of this never ending battle.”
