...Team conflict can materialize at any point of a project life span. Various types of conflict among teams include process, task, relationship, and communication conflict. In the case of Smallsville’s Tent City, communication is not effective within the team, considering it is broadcasted on the news prior to their knowledge (Devryu.net). Communication issues can be caused by several methods such as perspective-taking failures and message tuning. Not only can poor communication cause problems in a team, the team members may have relationship or task conflict with each other which can be either ineffective or effective for a team. Communication in a project keeps its members informed with the progress and delays of the project, sets expectations, goals, resources, status reports, budgets, milestones, the list goes on. Problems arising from this can be detrimental to the stakeholders, budget, resources, and team. People impacted last minute may be rushed to complete a task because they are not prepared resulting in poor results and an unsatisfied team. To solve these problems, a communication plan should be created by the project manager at the beginning of the project’s life span. This will express the scope, deliverables, milestones, and what, who, how, and when information will be transmitted, so schedules, issues, and action items can be tracked. The plan sets in stone what information needs to be collected, who receives certain information, how information will...

...arrangements (or structure) of society as the root causes of crime and deviance” (Schmalleger, 2012, "Social Structures Theories/Definition of Social Structure Theories"). In addition, the social structure theories look at the negative aspects of society’s structure, such as disorganization, poverty, and disadvantages associated with lack of educational success as the cause of criminal behavior (Schmalleger, 2012, "Social Structures Theories/Definition of Social Structure Theories"). The major principles of the sociological theory that are addressed in the video are Tent City’s social group arrangements of society that provides focus for study, group dynamics and subgroup relationships from which crime develops, society’s structure and degree of organization/disorganization, and specific behaviors that can statistically estimate characteristics to engage in crime. The social groups formed in Tent City are racially motivated, meaning that each inmate is segregated to their own racial group to keep the different racial groups separated from each other. The group dynamics in a population of criminals that are divided into subgroups by race offers two examples the major principles. One example relates to the group being made up of all criminals, and the second example relates to the racially segregated subgroups that keep the inmates with their own race. This can lead to struggles related to status amongst their own racial group, and to the other racial groups...

...cause of criminal behavior. In society, depending on where you are, there are usually some unwritten norms that are expected to be followed. It can be in a business corporation, out in the streets, at home. Usually there will be two sets of norms that is expected to be followed that causes an individual to feel torn. However, the feeling of being torn is the inner battle of doing the right thing, conscience or keeping yourself alive. The video, “Tent City, Arizona” was chosen to be watched to identify social structure theories and immediately it was noticed that an individual named Ryan, who is a nineteen years old meth user who was given the choice, serve six months in Tent City, or twelve years in a state prison. As the story focused on Ryan, he has lost the support of his mother and his girlfriend who gave birth to his son while he was waiting for sentencing. He started to realize that he wanted to be present for his son as a father because he grew up without his father and knew what he needed to do. Complete his Tent City stint and get out and go be with his son and be a father. He knew that he needed to follow all the rules as required by the officers who enforced the rules, however he also had to be part of the “Woods” group which are the Whites or otherwise he could be turned against. One of the unwritten norms of the prison was that everyone had to be divided by race and support each other. As soon as Ryan came in, he had to be with the “Woods” and try to stay...

...Assignment 2 Water Conflict In colonial America the Inxica and Daho clans were two Indian tribes sharing pastures and water in the Texan hinterland. During droughts or hard times the two clans were always in conflict over water and pasture. It was during this time that the Daho chieftain decided that it was time to settle these conflicts once and for all. They decided to poison the common well without informing the Inxica to kill the clan and their animals. ‘This will teach the Inxica a lesson.’ The Daho chieftain declared. ‘We were the first settlers in this land and it is about time the Inxica knew of this fact.’ added the chief’s advisors. ‘Long live Daho! Long Live Daho!’ chanted the Daho citizens in agreement with their chief’s decision. On the first day countless cattle and three children of the Inxica died from the poison forcing the clan to seek for alternative water source deeper in the jungle. The Daho were pleased and celebrated victory over their perennial enemies with song and dance. The Daho had a spring in their land and thus could face up with the situation of water. They flourished and were glad at their win. During this time it was common for Indian tribes to send their young to Christian missionaries under the Spanish to learn how to read and write. The Daho had selected the top minds from their youth and since it was December it marked the time for their homecoming. The five Daho students were glad to at last go home and try to improve the lives of...

...powerful seer, stands up and offers his services. Though he fears retribution from Agamemnon, Calchas reveals the plague as a vengeful and strategic move by Chryses and Apollo. Agamemnon flies into a rage and says that he will return Chryseis only if Achilles gives him Briseis as compensation. Agamemnon’s demand humiliates and infuriates the proud Achilles. The men argue, and Achilles threatens to withdraw from battle and take his people, the Myrmidons, back home to Phthia. Agamemnon threatens to go to Achilles’ tent in the army’s camp and take Briseis himself. Achilles stands poised to draw his sword and kill the Achaean commander when the goddess Athena, sent by Hera, the queen of the gods, appears to him and checks his anger. Athena’s guidance, along with a speech by the wise advisor Nestor, finally succeeds in preventing the duel. That night, Agamemnon puts Chryseis on a ship back to her father and sends heralds to have Briseis escorted from Achilles’ tent. Achilles prays...

...last twenty years of publishing the article. Carnegie asserts that “Individualism will continue, but the millionaire will be but a 5 trustee of the poor, entrusted for a season with a great part of the increased wealth of the community, but administering it for the community far better than it could or would have done for itself”, demonstrating his belief that money accumulated and left sitting in a vault assists neither the community nor its owners, and that it would be best if set back into the communal circulation through almsgiving. Examining Carnegie’s background as one of the wealthiest men to live, his own worth demonstrates his authority on the subject of money and charity. Carnegie’s thesis is also echoed within the documentary Tent City, a film which follows the titular area for the homeless in...

...Not only that but he was going off to serve with people “from all over the United States” (Shaw) that did things differently than maybe he did. Shaw said he was not very distraught about not being around his parents. He said, “I missed my brother, I miss my friends more than my family just because your friends are you friends. They are the people you talk to the most” (Shaw). Making new friends was the hardest thing to do. He described the tent cities that he had to live in for many years in both Panama and Haiti. There was hundreds of tents set up on a long piece of unused land and this is where the men and women ate and slept. Up to 20 people could live in one tent. Showers were limited to one every three days. “You can imagine what it's like with twenty guys all living in one tent and Haiti and Panama are both hot even in the winter and we were doing stuff all day long so it gets pretty nasty,” (Shaw) said Shaw. The food was ok. Soldiers would get up and have a good breakfast but lunch and dinner were not that great. Everybody was hungry so they ate it. The best food they would get was when family would send soldiers food. The simplest things like sunflower seeds or baked goods were the best. The culture shock was incredible just to see how different places like Haiti and Panama were. Shaw became more grateful for everything that he had back at...

...California faced several challenges. First of all, they were forced to hike and canoe for days on their way to California for three days. In addition, some routes caused fevers and diseases that made people die on their route. Furthermore, the extreme weather and harsh mining conditions- usually above a hundred degrees made people hard to adapt to the environment and live healthy. Lastly, although some routes are safer than the other, these routes usually take a long time, as long as a hundred days to take the travelers to California. The rapid growth in the population caused tension by transforming the town into a “brawling city of tents and shacks”. In addition, discriminating among different ethnic groups and poor health facilities also caused physical tensions. Lastly, the desire to occupy the land and despoil the gold resources from the Californians caused the conflict between Californians and the Anglos....

...Book 1 That night, Agamemnon puts Chryseis on a ship back to her father and sends heralds to have Briseis escorted from Achilles’ tent. Achilles prays to his mother, the sea-nymph Thetis, to ask Zeus, king of the gods, to punish the Achaeans. He relates to her the tale of his quarrel with Agamemnon, and she promises to take the matter up with Zeus—who owes her a favor—as soon as he returns from a thirteen-day period of feasting with the Aethiopians. Thetis makes her appeal to Zeus, as promised. Zeus is reluctant to help the Trojans, for his wife, Hera, favors the Greeks, but he finally agrees. Hera becomes livid when she discovers that Zeus is helping the Trojans, but her son Hephaestus persuades her not to plunge the gods into conflict over the mortals. Analysis But while the poem focuses most centrally on the rage of a mortal, it also concerns itself greatly with the motivations and actions of the gods. Even before Homer describes the quarrel between Achilles and Agamemnon, he explains that Apollo was responsible for the conflict. In general, the gods in the poem participate in mortal affairs in two ways. First, they act as external forces upon the course of events, as when Apollo sends the plague upon the Achaean army. Second, they represent internal forces acting on individuals, as when Athena, the goddess of wisdom, prevents Achilles from abandoning all reason and persuades him to cut Agamemnon with words and insults rather than his sword. But while the gods serve a serious...

...Sharmine Sokataly Tuesday, 10th November 2015 INTL 2200 Op-Ed: Syrian refugees should be welcomed in the Gulf The Gulf countries – particularly Saudi Arabia – have been much involved Syria’s conflict; secretly funding the rebel groups against Assad. And now, are there no funds left to help the millions of displaced inhabitants of Syria due to this war? Qatar, Kuwait, UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Bahrain are in the top 20 countries with the highest GDP per capita. They are Arab, they speak Arabic, all have a similar culture to Syria, and are all predominantly Sunni. Assimilation issues would be very low compared to other countries such as in the West, where most of them are migrating to. Why is the Gulf doing nothing to help them? It’s time for the US to pressure them and get them to start receiving Syrian refugees. Saudi Arabia would benefit from taking in refugees as it would increase their currently small work force, and the country is already used to having immigrants, who make up 30% of the population. The demographics of the country will soon cause issues as the population is quickly ageing, and the country needs more workers in the lower class. Additionally, there are has been an ongoing Sunni vs. Shia war for a long time, hence Saudi’s involvement in Syria against Assad and Iran. If they value the Sunnis that much, the first thing they should do is protect the Sunni-majority population of Syria and bring them to their country to favor their side. If Assad is removed...
