...When talking about my personal ethical viewpoint I learned a lot about my own personal ethics there my different resources. I learned a lot about my center values that interdependence is my goal. And combining the rights of individuals with what is the best for the community. I am more balanced than reasonable, I believe in the universal rules that apply to everyone. My classic values are self-control and justice I value individual and common balance within the community. This balance can be accomplished by giving trust and regularly dealing with members of the community. I think that everyone is liable for themselves and their compulsion to do the right thing in any situations. A decent person should fulfill that responsibility and be fair at the same time. My tools for fixing problems are straightforward. I think through the problem and try to solve the best way possible. Being accountable and doing what is fair is very important to me. As constancy and reliability are very important to me if I say I am going to do something then I will do it. My blind spot would be deeply be that sometimes I get a bit blunt when it comes to justice and even thought I might not see it. It causes involuntary upset and pain in a condition. My strengths are giving everyone a change to follow their personal ethical way but doing it the right way. My weakness is letting the people consume me and having me follows their ethical way even if it not right in my eyes. Behaviors can be very effective depending...

...A strategy is a set of related actions that managers take to increase their company’s performance. Strategic leadership is about how to most effectively manage a company’s strategy-making process to create competitive advantage. The strategy-making process is the process by which managers select and then implement a set of strategies that aim to achieve a competitive advantage. Strategy formulation is the task of selecting strategies, whereas strategy implementation is the task of putting strategies into action, which includes designing, delivering, and supporting products; improving the efficiency and effectiveness of operations; and designing a company’s organizational structure, control systems, and culture. Maximizing shareholder value is the ultimate goal of profit-making companies for two reasons. First, shareholders provide a company with the risk capital that enables managers to buy the resources needed to produce and sell goods and services. Risk capital is capital that cannot be recovered if a company fails and goes bankrupt. Second, shareholders are the legal owners of a corporation, and their shares represent a claim on the profits generated by a company. Thus, managers have an obligation to invest those profits in ways that maximize shareholder value. By shareholder value we mean the returns that shareholders earn from purchasing shares in a company. These returns come from two sources: (1) capital appreciation in the value of a company’s shares and (2) dividend...

...I bought a book from crossword; he packed the book and added two bookmarks into my pack. A thought came to my mind. Why do I need a bookmark? I can easily memorize the page number and the next time resume from the same page when I resume reading, or read them all over to reach to the point where I stopped reading. But not all have a blessed memory; moreover, there are better things to remember, my grandpa would rather bookmark and rely on it to help him resume reading. It’s a kind of simple index, isn’t it? This article focuses on how MS SQL Server uses indexes to read and write data. Data is arranged by SQL Server in the form of extents and pages. Each extent is of size 64 KB, having 8 pages of 8KB sizes. An extent may have data from multiple or same table, but each page holds data from a single table only. Logically, data is stored in record sets in the table. We have fields (columns) identifying the type of data contained in each of the record sets. A table is nothing but a collection of record sets; by default, rows are stored in the form of heaps unless a clustered index has been defined on the table, in which case, record sets are sorted and stored on the clustered index. The heaps structure is a simple arrangement where the inserted record is stored in the next available space on the table page. Heaps seem a great option when the motive is simply storing data, but when data retrieval steps in, this option back fires. An index acts as a fire fighter in this scenario. Indexes...

...UNDERSTANDING THE RELATIONAL DATABASES Student’s Name Instructor’s Name Course Name 03/05/2016 RELATIONAL DATABASES Being a data administrator is to handle and organize the bulk of data masses for easy and convenient retrieval of the information at any point of time. I generally believe that compiling a bulk of data is very difficult task for anyone who has the responsibility to manage the information. Therefore, here we go through and understand the concept of relational databases and use of tables designed to manage the data for the problem cases in our daily life. A relational database is a defined group of data items systematized and controlled as a set of formally defined tables from which the collected and unmanageable data can be reassembled or accessed in various different techniques deprived of having to restructure the pre-arranged database tables (Rouse, n.d.). According to Codd (1982), “Relational processing entails treating whole relationships as operands. Its primary purpose is loop-avoidance, an absolute requirement for end users to be productive at all, and a clear productivity booster for application programmers” (p.298). It comprises of designed data tables that are connected together in some important way. For instance, consider an organization that offers items to clients. The organization keeps up a database of the items it offers. Every item has a one of a kind code so it can be uniquely recognized. The item database comprises of a table, and each...

...defend robustly your own worldview. The three components that make up my personal worldview are God, ethics, and spiritual knowledge - because they play a vital role in all my thoughts, experiences, and life decisions. Putting God first in my life is at times quite difficult. For a Christian, it may be the most difficult thing to do. As an indication of faith it’s probably designed to be difficult. God has immense knowledge to communicate to each one of us, but He must always be put first in our lives if we are to obtain the knowledge. Since I’ve learned to view my life from God's endless perception it has become easier to comprehend what will last eternally and what will be demolished. My faith in a loving and forgiving God plays an imperative part in my day to day life. Throughout my life, being a Christian and living out my faith has been difficult and demanding. The people of this world do not always respect the ones who take a stand and do the right thing. The normal thing to do is to portray the ways of the world. The world encourages you to do what feels right and look out for one’s own self. In law enforcement there are always times when I will have to choose between my code of ethics and the police subculture ways of conducting ethical dilemmas or other given situations. The benefit of being a Christian police officer is that even when I don’t have a partner, the Holy Spirit never leaves my side. Everyday ethical dilemmas can test any individual in every way imaginable...

...SOC 120: Introduction of Ethics and Social Responsibility David Strand September 24, 2012 Ethical/Personal Issues of Physician Assisted Suicide Physician assisted suicide is a very passionate topic for me. I totally agree that it should be legalized and used when a terminally ill patient has totally used every possible avenue of treatment and there is nothing left to do. As a Utilitarian you definitely want the right thing to be done. Then what is right is right and wrong is wrong. I am sure that in egoism there would be a problem because they would only want to be the hero so to speak and do what is correct of the family and everyone else’s needs. As we go through the issue you will see different views and feelings involving all providers involved which are doctors, nurses, patients, friends, and family members. What is physician assisted suicide? For the lack of a better term physician assisted suicide will be addressed as “euthanasia”. Euthanasia is defined broadly as “the mercy killing of the hopelessly ill, injured or incapacitated” (Pozgar, 2010). Euthanasia is a Greek word meaning “good death” or “easy death” (Pozgar, 2010). As a healthcare worker/provider for many years I have come to have great feelings on passive euthanasia as well as many other healthcare individuals have. We must discuss the fine lines of legal issues as well as ethical issues. Is there a right or a wrong, when it comes to the end of life for an individual...

...Growing up as a young girl, I always loved trips to the library throughout my school years. Though I enjoyed reading and the joys it brought to me, I could not begin to imagine writing in any of the books I read. I often imagined writing the suspenseful, and exciting stories that I read and in time; I got the chance to try and do so. The writing process for me was a little more difficult than I had ever imagined. As I began writing the pieces necessary for my English classes as a young adult, I soon realized that there was more to writing and jotting down words on a piece of paper for an assignment. As a developing writer, I knew very little in the beginning, I am very aware now that writing a paper indeed takes a great amount of time and requires a lengthy process in order to write an exceptional paper. There were definitely a lot of wrongs, before I learned right, but I now can say that I have gradually developed the ability to write, organize and prepare a paper whenever needed. The most important part of the writing process to me, would have to be the editing process. Along with editing, there is revision, which is a crucial process to developing an exceptional paper. The editing and revising process of writing is crucial to the writer and the reader because with incorrect grammar, sentence structures, punctuation etc., it is not only difficult for the reader to understand, but for the writer as well if the reason they are writing cannot be understood the way it was intended...

...his article will show you step-by-step the easiest and quickest way to get rid of a big zit, using only free ingredients you have at lying around at home. The best way to get rid of a pimple fast is to prevent your acne from happening in the first place, but this is not a perfect world, and you have probably done everything you can to keep your pimples from surfacing, but no matter what they're still there. Don't worry! There are two quick ways to get rid of it, usually within just one day! Note: After you get rid of your zit, you will want to know how you can prevent pimples from ever surfacing again. I wrote another article describing in complete detail how you can prevent 100% of future pimples by using a completely natural and free method (and its easier than you think). 1st Method: Hot Compress ***Use the hot washcloth method only if your pimple has broken the surface of your skin (if your zit is a white head, black head, oozing, or you just really, really, want to pop it) --First, scrub your skin with a quality face wash --Soak a washcloth (or cotton ball, paper towel) in hot water --Use the washcloth on your zit for at least 20-30 minutes, resoaking it in hot water again when needed. --Dry your skin by patting gently with a dry washcloth --Now the tricky part - popping the pimple. It should look waterlogged by now, and will be easy to pop, just make sure NOT to press down, as this will force bacteria deeper inside the pimple causing a bigger zit. ...

...the perceptions of those behaviors. Think of the study of conflict as a view through a lens, like the lens of a camera, or through prescription glasses. The lens model of conflict specifies that each person has a view of (1) oneself, (2) the other person, and (3) the relationship. These perceptual pieces form the fundamental views of all conflicts, and combined together they form the mosaic of a particular conflict (Wilmot & Hocker 2010). There are also minimal features of all conflicts. They are: (1)the communicative acts or behaviors of each person, (2)the meanings or attributions attached to those acts by each person, which are each person’s view of self and each person’s views of the other, and (3)the meanings or attributions the two people ascribe to their relationship, which include past events, current events, and future projections. Each person also has a lens that gives that person a particular perspective, just as people use different types of glasses to see. There are multiple views of conflict, yet each looks real to the one seeing it (Wilmot & Hocker 2010). In a conflict, each person will have their own view of the situation at hand and react differently. As the old saying says, there are two sides to every story. For example, let’s say you have a couple that gets into an argument or should I say, a conflict, about their child spilling juice on the living room carpet. The mother may view it as being a simple mistake and can easily be cleaned, whereas the father...

...My View of Reality In my journey in finding the nature of reality, I have encountered philosophers of different views. There is Parmenides who says that the real is being(one) which is permanent; on the other hand, Heraclitus says what is real is becoming which is changing. While Plato who sided with Parmenides says what is real is the world of Forms, the world that reflects our world today. However, Aristotle says that the real are matter and form. Furthermore, Levinas stresses the importance of the other as if your relationship with the other helps you fulfill your being a person. That is really true if you will live it. Another philosopher, St. Thomas Aquinas says what is real is being “that which exists” wherein his essence and existence is a participation or came from the Pure Act/ God who acted his act of existence. On the other hand, Heidegger makes a turn of these Western views of metaphysics. Heidegger claims that what is real is that the nothing which makes being possible and reality is the unfolding and keeping of Being. Thus, for Heidegger reality is whole and dynamic. This is compared to Buddhistic view of reality. Buddhism believes that reality is interdependently arising which is impermanent and no separation. Moreover, Derrida adds something. He believes that meaning is impossible for no matter how you process to signify the meaning of something, you could not really get the meaning of that something. So, what one...

...My view on immigration is to have a more open border system but still with some restrictions and vetting, just less severe. I have this view because immigrants bring so much to our society, including economic advancements, diversity, knowledge and culture from other countries. I believe if you truly want to come to a country for good reasons, you should be allowed and not be discriminated against. This is why my immigration policy would let more immigrants from around the world, especially refugees in need, into the country. Past research show large waves of immigration come mainly from people seeking asylum from their former countries, governments or extremism; they’re looking for something better in life, or have a new opportunity here.
