...Kaplan University SC300 The foods we eat on a daily basis which are purchased from our local grocery stores can help impact our local economy when these ingredients are derived from local farmers and communities. By learning where our foods come from and purchasing locally grown foods, we can support the local socioeconomic market and community members. Meal Analysis In this meal analysis, the following foods and where they are derived from in order to get to our local grocery store shelves will be discussed. The ingredients consist of broiled (frozen) salmon, rice, fresh strawberries, and Folgers black coffee. One of the locally-owned grocery stores purchases most fresh produce from local farm and business owners. Due to geographic location, some ingredients must be imported from other areas of the country. Strawberries are grown year-round at a couple of farms which are a bit further away in distance. A farm in Minonk, Illinois grows strawberries, picks, packages and loads strawberries onto shipping trucks for distribution at our local grocer. The farm which is furthest located is 381.4 miles from Albert Lea (Perhus, 2014, May 5). This is the only locally grown item from the menu listing which can be grown in this area of the country. For some local grocery stores, there are local suppliers which grow their strawberries in greenhouses and then distribute to smaller owned markets and grocery stores. These methods provide a locally owned socioeconomic way of supporting...

...“Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space lies our freedom and power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and freedom.” Viktor Emil Frankl, M.D., Ph.D (Man's Search for Meaning; 1946 ) Everyone of us, Human or animal alike, have been living in this world since the primordial time. Coping with every change that had happened and developing new routine in everyday life. Routines that may soon be etch with in our system. That will eventually turn out to be a habit. A habit that will consume our senses until it will all become our Behavior. As to Psychologists, Behaviorism is more concerned with behavior than with thinking, feeling, or knowing. It focuses on the objective and observable components of behavior. Behaviorism focus on behaviors that can be observed only. Behaviorism deals with the consequences of behavior and those behaviors can be rewarded or punished. (Huitt, W., & Hummel, J. (2006). An overview of the behavioral perspective. Educational Psychology Interactive. Valdosta, GA: Valdosta State University. ) HISTORY Behaviourism is derived from the belief that free will is an illusion. According to a pure behaviourist, ( John B. Watson (1878-1958)) human beings are shaped entirely by their external environment. Alter a person's environment, and you will alter his or her thoughts, feelings, and behaviour. Provide positive reinforcement whenever someone perform a desired behaviour, and soon they will learn to perform the behaviour...

...Behaviors By Lynne Wood PSY 330: Instructor Kimberly McCann April 8, 2013 . Behavior I selected behaviors to learn about why people react or do some things, things we observe and hear about as well. I feel that by assimilating and learning more about behaviors, how they work and how they came into place, it will assistance me with not only my future classes, but the path I chose for a career. Digging into some of the theories of behavior and what constitutes abnormal and normal behaviors, and then attempting to understand why some people possibly develop disorders, while under the same or adverse conditions others do not, greatly aroused my interest. In this paper I will attempt to touch on a few of the founders of behavioral theories and models that have influenced our ways of thinking and brought about what we have come to know today as Behaviorism or Behavioral Psychology which is one of the key points in understanding theories of personalities. Behaviorism is a theory that encompasses the idea that all behaviors are learned, and through modifying or changing ones behavior can bring about and the desired response obtained. A strength related to the behavioral theories would be attempting to learn and understand what are the causes or reasons for our behaviors, focusing on behaviors and learning how they came about, are either observed, taught or both we may have a better understanding of why people act or do things. So what we observe or can manipulate would...

...Behaviorism and Its Effect on the Understanding of Learning AIU Online Abstract This paper focuses on a brief summary on the history of behaviorism, starting with experiments conducted by Franklin Henry Giddings and Ivan Pavlov, a sociologist and a physiologist whom established the groundwork for behaviorism, particularly in America. In addition, this paper also explains the main components of behaviorism, which are classical conditioning and operant conditioning, connectionism, and the contiguity theory. It moves forward to explain four experiments that are popular through the study of behaviorism: the reason behind conditioned salivation in Ivan Pavlov’s dogs, conditioned responses in humans through Watson’s little Albert experiment, Thorndike’s research with cats and a puzzle box to demonstrate the law of effect through the use of reinforcements, and B.F. Skinner’s experiment with rats to prove how an organism learns through operant conditioning. Finally, this paper examines how, according to behaviorists, there are three principles of learning new and intricate behaviors, known as shaping, chaining, and fading. Behaviorism and Its Effect on the Understanding of Learning Behaviorism suggests that an organism learns from its environment. It is the result of the association between a stimulus and a response. An organism learns new behavior through classical or operant conditioning. It is a theory that does not base its ideals on emotions or prior knowledge. Some say behaviorism...

...Research Paper Albert Amos Sr. Fiscal Administration in Law Enforcement LEA432 Prof. Zachary Steward May 4, 2014 One of the most expensive services that local governments provide is police service. As is the case in many local government agencies today, police departments are being asked to provide more services than ever before with less resources available to fund these new initiatives. As it becomes apparent that there is not enough money available to fund necessary programs, and the funding is not forthcoming, local governments have been forced to reexamine themselves to find new ways to provide the essential services that they are obligated to provide. In the age of budget cuts that we live in today, performance management is being used more and more to help organizations effectively meet their objectives in an economically responsible manner. 1.) The impact of a recession on a law enforcement agency’s ability to plan a budget Parlow, Matthew J., "The Great Recession and Its Implications for Community Policing" (2012). Faculty Publications. Paper 607. http://scholarship.law.marquette.edu/facpub/607 When the economy was flourishing, local governments were able to pay for services to any jurisdiction. The Great Recession has forced localities to think critically about whether they can sustain these practices given budget cuts. Sweeping reductions put law enforcement on pace for its first job decline in 25 years. The effects of the economic downturn on law...

...The SWOT analysis is an extremely useful tool for understanding and decision-making for all sorts of situations in business and organizations. SWOT is an acronym for Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats. Information about the origins and inventors of SWOT analysis is below. The SWOT analysis headings provide a good framework for reviewing strategy, position and direction of a company or business proposition, or any other idea. Completing a SWOT analysis is very simple, and is a good subject for workshop sessions. SWOT analysis also works well in brainstorming meetings. Use SWOT analysis for business planning, strategic planning, competitor evaluation, marketing, business and product development and research reports. You can also use SWOT analysis exercises for team building games. Note that SWOT analysis is often interpreted and used as a SWOT Analysis 2x2 Matrix, especially in business and marketing planning. In addition to this 2x2 matrix method, SWOT analysis is also a widely recognized method for gathering, structuring, presenting and reviewing extensive planning data within a larger business or project planning process. See also PEST analysis, which measures a business's market and potential according to external factors; Political, Economic, Social and Technological.

...widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole nature and its beauty." -Albert Einstein (1879-1955). Animal testing is an issue in today's general public that, regardless if anybody understands it, does influence each of us. Is some some testing needed by law? Medical advances, for example, transplants, antibodies, and drugs were all tried on animals before they were utilized on people. However, does government law guarantee that creatures utilized as a part of examination and testing are dealt with compassionately? Today there are a lot of individuals who are against animal testing in lab research. Frequently asking what are other options for utilizing animals as a part of therapeutic studies? Animal testing is expected to advance the wellbeing of people, yet the procedures often include hurting innocent creatures. The individuals who are for animal testing for the most part bolster investigative examination and medical advancement. The two principle ideals with respect to animal testing is that it is heartless and oppressive to creatures, while others feel that there are insufficient willing individuals that organizations need to better help the world, the role must then fall to animals. Animal experimentation and testing is directed by the Animal Welfare Act, which characterizes an animal as any warm blooded creature. This bars feathered animals, fish, rats, cold blooded animals and farm animals (regardless of warm or cold blood) from experimentation...

...Ted Bundy Early Life Childhood: Bundy’s birth name was Theodore Robert Cowell born in Burlington, Vermont on November 24, 1946 to Eleanor Cowell. The identity of his father is unknown. However, family members signified suspicions that the father may actually have been Louise’s own violent, abusive father named, Samuel Cowell, though there was no evidence to support such speculation. For the first three years of his life Bundy lived in the Philadelphia home of his maternal grandparents, Samuel and Eleanor Cowell, who raised him as their son to avoid the social stigma that accompanied illegitimate birth at the time. Family, friends, and even young Ted were told that his grandparents were his parents and that his mother was his older sister. Eventually he discovered the truth, but how and when is not clear. He told his girlfriend that a co usin showed him a copy of his birth certificate after calling him a "bastard", but he told biographers Stephen Michaud and Hugh Aynesworth that he found the certificate himself. Biographer and true crime writer Ann Rule, who knew Bundy personally, believes that he tracked down his original birth record in Vermont in 1969. Bundy expressed a lifelong resentment toward his mother for lying about his true parentage and leaving him to discover it for himself. While Bundy spoke warmly of his grandparents in some interviews and told Ann Rule that he "identified with", "respected", and "clung to" his grandfather, he and other family members...

...Nemertea Phoronida Bryozoa Entoprocta Brachiopoda Mollusca Annelida Synonyms Metazoa Haeckel, 1874 Animals are multicellular, eukaryotic organisms of the kingdom Animalia (also called Metazoa). Their body plan eventually becomes fixed as they develop, although some undergo a process of metamorphosis later on in their lives. Most animals are motile, meaning they can move spontaneously and independently. All animals must ingest other organisms or their products for sustenance (see Heterotroph). Most known animal phyla appeared in the fossil record as marine species during the Cambrian explosion, about 542 million years ago. Animals are divided into various sub-groups, some of which are: vertebrates (birds, mammals, amphibians, reptiles, fish); molluscs (clams, oysters, octopuses, squid, snails); arthropods (millipedes, centipedes, insects, spiders,...
