Project 1: Resource Research and Review

Project 1 is designed to help prepare you for the final project at the end of the semester. You will notice that, for your final project in this course, you will be asked to trace a crime or criminal incident through the adult criminal justice system, from initial arrest to the eventual return to the community following incarceration. As you work on the final project, you will encounter numerous decision points or stages in the system. Project 1 will assist you in preparing for your final project by introducing you to topic research. You may then use the results of this project to support your final project paper.

Project 1 Assignment:

Using the designated topic listed below (see, Topics), you will search Library databases and the Internet for resource material that explains, clarifies, critiques, etc. the topic.

1. Your Resource Research and Review project must contain four (4) outside sources (not instructional material for this course),REsources consist of journals book at least six of which must come from a Library data base.

2. Locate books, periodicals, and documents that may contain useful information and ideas on your topic. You may conduct your research with the assistance of a UMUC librarian, reviewing your own personal materials on the topic, using the Internet, visiting an actual library, etc. and reviewing the available items. Then, choose those works that provide a variety of perspectives on your topic.

3. Type the reference “citation” information for the book, article, or document using the American Psychological Association (APA) formatting standards. (There are links to APA format standards under Library Services.)

4. Each reference is to be followed by the annotation. The purpose of the annotation is to inform the reader of the relevance, accuracy, and quality of the sources cited. Creating an annotated bibliography calls for a variety of intellectual skills: concise exposition, succinct analysis, and informed library research.

A company’s earnings are, quite simply, its profits. Take a company’s revenue from selling something, subtract all the costs to produce that product, and, voila, you have earnings! Of course, the details of accounting get a lot more complicated, but earnings always refer to how much money a company makes fewer costs. Its many synonyms cause part of the confusion associated with earnings. The terms profit, net income, bottom line, and earnings all refer to the same thing.

Let’s assume your company is now experiencing a positive and steady rate of earnings. As a small business owner, you should learn how to invest these profits wisely to grow your business, increase profits, create diversification, reduce risk and boost your potential for returns. It’s important to be open to new ideas and experiment with different strategies to improve your profitability.

Your task now is to figure out how you will use those earnings to generate some kind of positive return.

Following what you’ve written so far, answer the following question as it relates to your developing organization:

1. How will you balance investing your business’s profits between outside investments and reinvesting them within the firm? Discuss the positive and negative aspects of both types of investing, specifically how they relate to your business.

2. Under what circumstances would it make more sense to use earnings to buy down existing debt?

Use what you have learned on investing earnings to answer this question in narrative form. Again, your response to the above questions should be between a total of 400-600 words. You will be graded on accuracy of content/concepts used, feasibility, and finally the organization and presentation of the writing. Please refer to the rubric posted on Canvas for more detail on grading.

Choose a publicly traded company and find its annual report (10K) on www.sec.gov. Scroll down to the area called “Filings and Forms” and click on “Search for Company files” and then click on “Company or fund name. . .” It’s probably the easiest to search by the company’s ticker symbol, but you can also use the company’s name. Once you find the company, then find its most recent 10K report. Open the massive report and scroll through the index to find the MD&A (Management Discussion and Analysis) section. Sometimes you won’t find much information in this section but you will note some management discussion around this area–you can use that, too. In your post, provide the name of the company you chose and describe something interesting you found in the MD&A. Again, do not duplicate firms, please.

Religion reply post 1

/in /by

I just think religious life is in a great amount of change right now and that’s a good thing. It can be scary but it’s a good thing. We can’t just be looking at the externals. Saying the numbers have shifted, ministries have shifted, people can’t be in the parishes or the place they once were those are simply externals. There was a point in time when we desperately needed schools and hospitals in the United States. Religious communities provided that, and they also helped parishes grow. I think we’re in a different moment now. There’s both dying and new life happening.

I believe that the biggest issue faced today especially in healthcare, is the lack of knowledge and understanding of other individuals’ faith. “Spiritual or compassionate care involves serving the whole person—the physical, emotional, social, and spiritual.” (Puchalski, 2001). Today there are many studies based around religion in healthcare. Spiritual beliefs can help patients cope with disease and face death and it is important that healthcare professionals understand and respect those beliefs. It is important for healthcare professionals to understand the patients’ beliefs because these beliefs may be dynamic in the patient’s understanding of the disease. Aside from that, religious convictions may affect health care decision making. Not that I have not been sensitive and open to learning in the past, but this course has helped me better understand some of the many religions of individuals that I come into contact with every day. Ethical termination of pregnancy has increasingly become a hot topic throughout society. There are many people that don’t give much thought to the idea and then there are others who feel very strongly about it. There has been a situation where a new physician was talking to a woman of a different faith than he was and one that he was not all too familiar with. This young patient had recently been left by her husband who she later found out has AIDS. Because of this news, she decided to get tested. The physician gave her the news that her test came back positive and explained that they did diagnose her early. The patient kept repeating the God had been doing this to her and the physician was unable to connect with her because he did not know what to say or how to react. He took a step back and decided to just communicate with her on a different level, trying to find out more about her beliefs and better understand what she was saying. She then explained to him that as a teenager she was raped and rather than keeping the baby, she had an abortion. In her belief system that was very wrong. She viewed this positive test as a punishment for giving up her pregnancy. After their long conversation, there was a strong relationship that had formed between them and because of that, she continued to see this specific physician. She even told him that had he not addressed her belief issues during their first encounter, she would have never returned to see him or any other physician. In many patients’ lives, spiritual or religious beliefs may affect the decisions they make about their health and illness and the treatment choices they make. It is critical that us healthcare professionals listen to all aspects of our patients’ lives that can affect their decision making and their coping skills.

The topic that I chose to discuss is women’s rights movements. Women have a history of being restricted in ways such as being kept from having an education, owning land, having professional careers, traveling, marrying and divorcing as they wish, voting, and holding office (Molloy, 2013). Throughout history, the Catholic Church opposed women’s suffrage on its idea that a woman’s place is in the home. Claiming that if women were to engage in political life, their dignity would be impaired. The Church argued that in opposing women’s right to vote, it sought to protect and defend women. The Catholic Church has since come a long way. Today, the Catholic Church actively recruits Catholic women voters to lobby for the Church’s own political agenda. Other than women’s suffrage, the Catholic Church now supports women’s equal access to education, employment, and political participation worldwide. However, the Vatican still denies women the right to vote.
