9 Augustine Confessions (selections) Augustine of Hippo wrote his Confessions between 397 -400 CE. In it he gives an autobiographical account of his whole life up through his conversion to Christianity. In Book 2, excerpted here, he thinks over the passions and temptations of his youth, especially during a period where he had to come home from where he was studying and return to living with his parents. His mother Monica was already Christian and his father was considering it. They want him to be academically successful and become a great orator. From Augustine, Confessions. Translated by Caroline J-B Hammond. Loeb Classical Library Harvard University Press 2014 (Links to an external site.) . 1. (1) I wish to put on record the disgusting deeds in which I engaged, and the corrupting effect of sensual experience on my soul, not because I love them, but so that I may love you, my God. I do this because of my love for your love, to the end that—as I recall my wicked, wicked ways in the bitterness of recollection—you may grow even sweeter to me. For you are a sweetness which does not deceive, a sweetness which brings happiness and peace, pulling me back together from the disintegration in which I was being shattered and torn apart, when I turned away from you who are unity https://www-loebclassics-com.offcampus.lib.washington.edu/view/augustine-confessions/2014/pb_LCL026.61.xml https://www-loebclassics-com.offcampus.lib.washington.edu/view/augustine-confessions/2014/pb_LCL026.61.xml https://www-loebclassics-com.offcampus.lib.washington.edu/view/augustine-confessions/2014/pb_LCL026.61.xml https://www-loebclassics-com.offcampus.lib.washington.edu/view/augustine-confessions/2014/pb_LCL026.61.xml https://www-loebclassics-com.offcampus.lib.washington.edu/view/augustine-confessions/2014/pb_LCL026.61.xml and dispersed into the multiplicity that is oblivion. For there was a time during my adolescence when I burned to have my fill of hell. I ran wild and reckless in all manner of shady liaisons, and my outward appearance deteriorated, and I degenerated before your eyes as I went on pleasing myself and desiring to appear pleasing in human sight. 2. (2) What was it that used to delight me, if not loving and being loved? But there was no boundary maintained between one mind and another, and reaching only as far as the clear confines of friendship. Instead the slime of fleshly desire and the spurts of adolescence belched out their fumes, and these clouded and obscured my heart, so that it was impossible to distinguish the purity of love from the darkness of lust. Both of them together seethed in me, dragging my immaturity over the heights of bodily desire, and plunging me down into a whirlpool of sin. Your anger grew strong against me, but I was unaware of it. I had been deafened by the loud grinding of the chain of my mortality, the punishment for the pride of my soul, and I went even further away from yo.

I was heading to my home in Beijing at the end of a work trip, bringing back what have become two of the most sought-after items among parents here, and which were desperately needed in my own household. China is the world’s second largest economy, but the enormous costs of its growth are becoming apparent. Residents of its boom cities and a growing number of rural regions question the safety of the air they breathe, the water they drink and the food they eat. It is as if they were living in the Chinese equivalent of the Chernobyl or Fukushima nuclear disaster areas. Before this assignment, I spent three and a half years reporting in Iraq, where foreign correspondents talked endlessly of the variety of ways in which one could die — car bombs, firefights, being abducted and then beheaded. I survived those threats, only now to find myself wondering: Is China doing irreparable harm to me and my family? The environmental hazards here are legion, and the consequences might not manifest themselves for years or even decades. The risks are magnified for young children. Expatriate workers confronted with the decision of whether to live in Beijing weigh these factors, perhaps more than at any time in recent decades. But for now, a correspondent’s job in China is still rewarding, and so I am toughing it out a while longer. So is my wife, Tini, who has worked for more than a dozen years as a journalist in Asia and has studied Chinese. That means we are subjecting our 9-month-old daughter to the same risks that are striking fear into residents of cities across northern China, and grappling with the guilt of doing so. Like them, we take precautions. Here in Beijing, high-tech air purifiers are as coveted as luxury sedans. Soon after I was posted to Beijing, in 2008, I set up a couple of European-made air purifiers used by previous correspondents. In early April, I took out one of the filters for the first time to check it: the layer of dust was as thick as moss on a forest floor. It nauseated me. I ordered two new sets of filters to be picked up in San Francisco; those products are much cheaper in the United States. My colleague Amy told me that during the Lunar New Year in February, a family http://topics.nytimes.com/top/reference/timestopics/people/w/edward_wong/index.html http://topics.nytimes.com/top/news/international/countriesandterritories/china/index.html?inline=nyt-geo 8/4/13 9:06 AMLife in a Toxic Country - NYTimes.com Page 2 of 4http://www.nytimes.com/2013/08/04/sunday-review/life-in-a-toxic-country..

Check the measure. Have the same keys between “Name” and “Label.” Run factor analysis for ys (dependent variables). Select “Principal axis factoring” from “Extraction.” The two-factor solution seems the best as (1) they are over one eigenvalue each and (2) the variance explained for is over 60%. The new eigenvalues after the rotation. The rotated factor matrix is clear. But note that y3 and y1 are collapsed into one factor. If not you should rerun factor analysis after removing the most problematic item one at a time. Repeat this procedure until the rotated factor pattern has (1) no cross-loading, (2) no weak factor loading (< 0.5), and (3) an adequate number of items (not more than 5 items per factor). If a clear factor pattern is obtained, name the factors. Attitude and purchase intention (y3 and y1) Boycotting intention (y2) Compute the reliability of the items of each factor Make sure all responses were used. Cronbach’s a (= Reliability a) must be greater than 0.70. Then, you can create the composite variable out of the member items. Means and STDs must be similar among the items. No a here should be greater than Cronbach’s a. If not, you should delete such item(s) to increase a. Create the composite variable for each factor. BI = mean (y2_1,y2_2,y2_3) “PI” will be added to the data. Go to the Variable View and change its “Name” and “Label.” 8.

8.1 What Is Corporate Strategy? LO 8-1 Define corporate strategy and describe the three dimensions along which it is assessed. Strategy formulation centers around the key questions of where and how to compete. Business strategy concerns the question of how to compete in a single product market. As discussed in Chapter 6, the two generic business strategies that firms can follow to pursue their quest for competitive advantage are to increase differentiation (while containing cost) or lower costs (while maintaining differentiation). If trade-offs can be reconciled, some firms might be able to pursue a blue ocean strategy by increasing differentiation and lowering costs. As firms grow, they are frequently expanding their business activities through seeking new markets both by offering new products and services and by competing in different geographies. Strategic leaders must formulate a corporate strategy to guide continued growth. To gain and sustain competitive advantage, therefore, any corporate strategy must align with and strengthen a firm’s business strategy, whether it is a differentiation, cost-leadership, or blue ocean strategy. Corporate strategy comprises the decisions that leaders make and the goal-directed actions they take in the quest for competitive advantage in several industries and markets simultaneously.3 It provides answers to the key question of where to compete. Corporate strategy determines the boundaries of the firm along three dimensions: vertical integration along the industry value chain, diversification of products and services, and geographic scope (regional, national, or global markets). Strategic leaders must determine corporate strategy along the three dimensions: 1. Vertical integration: In what stages of the industry value chain should the company participate? The industry value chain describes the transformation of raw materials into finished goods and services along distinct vertical stages. 2. Diversification: What range of products and services should the company offer? 3. Geographic scope: Where should the company compete geographically in terms of regional, national, or international markets? In most cases, underlying these three questions is an implicit desire for growth. The need for growth is sometimes taken so much for granted that not every manager understands all the reasons behind it. A clear understanding will help strategic leaders to pursue growth for the right reasons and make better decisions for the firm and its stakeholders. WHY FIRMS NEED TO GROW LO 8-2 Explain why firms need to grow, and evaluate different growth motives. Several reasons explain why firms need to grow. These can be summarized as follows: 1. Increase profits. 2. Lower costs. 3. Increase market power. 4. Reduce risk. 5. Motivate management. Let’s look at each reason in turn. INCREASE PROFITS Profitable growth allows businesses to provide a higher return for their shareholders, or owners, if privately held. For publicly trade.

8.0 RESEARCH METHODS These guidelines address postgraduate students who have completed course requirements and assumed to have sufficient background experience of high-level engagement activities like recognizing, relating, applying, generating, reflecting and theorizing issues. It is an ultimate period in our academic life when we feel confident at embarking on independent research. It cannot be overemphasized that we must enjoy the experience of research process and not look at it as an academic chore. To enable such a desired behaviour, these guidelines consider the research process in terms of the skills and knowledge needed to develop independent and critical styles of thinking in order to evaluate and use research as well as to conduct fresh research. The guidelines should be viewed as briefs which the Research Supervisors are expected to exemplify based on their own experience as well as expertise. 8.1 Chapter 1 - Introduction INTRODUCE the subject or problem to be studied. This might require the identification of key managerial concerns, theories, laws and governmental rulings, critical incidents or social changes, and current environmental issues, that make the subject critical, relevant and worthy of managerial or research attention. • To inform the Reader (stylistically - forthright, direct, and brief / concise), • The first sentence should begin with `This Study was intended to’….’ And immediately tell the Reader the nature of the study for the reader's interest and desire to read on. 8.1.1 The Research Problem What is the statement of the problem?

95 People of Appalachian Heritage Chapter 5 KATHLEEN W. HUTTLINGER and LARRY D. PURNELL Overview, Inhabited Localities, and Topography OVERVIEW Appalachia consists of that large geographic expanse in the eastern United States that is associated with the Appalachian mountain system, a 200,000-square-mile region that extends from the northeastern United States in southern New York to northern Mississippi. It includes all of West Virginia and parts of Alabama, Georgia, Kentucky, Maryland, Mississippi, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Virginia. This very rural area is characterized by a rolling topography with very rugged ridges and hilltops, some extending over 4000 feet high, with remote valleys between them. The surrounding valleys are often 2000 feet or more in elevation and give one a sense of isolation, peacefulness, and separateness from the lower and more heavily traveled urban areas. This isolation and rough topography have contributed to the development of secluded communities in the hills and natural hollows or narrow valleys where people, over time, have developed a strong sense of independence and family cohesiveness. These same isolated valleys and rugged mountains present many transportation problems for those who do not have access to cars or trucks. Very limited public transportation is available only in the larger urbanized areas. Even though the Appalachian region includes several large cities, many people live in small settlements and in inaccessible hollows or “hollers” (Huttlinger, Schaller- Ayers, & Lawson, 2004a). The rugged location of many communities in Appalachia results in a population that is often isolated from the mainstream of health-care services. In some areas of Appalachia, substandard secondary and tertiary roads, as well as limited public bus, rail, and airport facilities, prevent easy access to the area (Fig. 5–1). Difficulty in accessing the area is partially responsible for continued geographic and sociocultural isolation. The rugged terrain can significantly delay ambulance response time and is a deterrent to people who need health care when their health condition is severe. This is one area in which telehealth innovations can and often do provide needed services. Many of the approximately 24 million people who live in Appalachia can trace their family roots back 150 or more years, and it is common to find whole communities comprising extended, related families. The cultural heritage of the region is rich and reflected in their distinctive music, art, and literature. Even though family roots are strong, many of the region’s younger residents have left the area to pursue job opportunities in the larger urban cities of the north. The remaining, older population reflects a group that often has less than a high-school education, is frequently unemployed, may be on welfare and/or disability, and is regularly uninsured (20.4 per- cent) (Virginia He.

8 Network Security April 2020 FEATURE Are your IT staff ready for the pandemic-driven insider threat? Phil Chapman Obviously the threat to human life is the top concern for everyone at this moment. But businesses are also starting to suffer as productivity slips globally and the workforce itself is squeezed. The UK Government’s March budget did announce some measures, especially for small and medium-size enterprises (SMEs), that will make this period slightly less painful for organisations. However, as is apparent from the tank- ing stock market (the FTSE 100 has hit levels not seen since June 2012) the economy and pretty much all businesses in the country (unless you produce hand sanitiser) are going to suffer. There is no time like now for the UK to embrace its mantra of ‘keep calm and carry on’ because that is what we must do if we’re going to keep business flowing. For the IT department at large there is lots of urgent work to do to ensure that the business is prepared to keep running smoothly even if people are having to work remotely. The task at hand for cyber security professionals is arguably even larger as Covid-19 is seeing cyber criminals capitalising on the fact that the insider threat is worse than ever, with more people working remotely from personal devices than many IT and cyber security teams have likely ever prepared for. This article will argue that the cyber security workforce, which is already suffering a digital skills crisis, may also be lacking the adequate soft skills required to effectively tackle the insider threat that has been exacerbated by the pandemic. It will first examine the insider threat, and why this has become so much more insidious because of Covid- 19. It will then look into the essential soft skills required to tackle this threat, before examining how organisations can effectively implement an apprentice- ship strategy that generates professionals with both hard and soft skills, including advice from the CISO of globally respected law firm Pinsent Masons, who will provide insight into how he is making his strategy work. It will conclude that many of these issues could be solved if the industry didn’t rely so heavily on recruiting graduates and rather looked towards hiring apprentices. The insider threat In the best of times, every cyber-professional knows that the biggest threat to an organisation’s IT infrastructure is people, both malicious actors and – much more often – employees and partners making mistakes. The problem is that people lack cyber knowledge and so commit careless actions – for example, forwarding sensitive information to the wrong recipient over email or plug- ging rogue USBs into their device (yes, that still happens). Cyber criminals capitalise on this ignorance by utilising social engineering tactics ranging from the painfully simple, like fake emails from Amazon, to the very sophisticated, such as.

88 C H A P T E R 7 Creating IT Shared Services1 1 This chapter is based on the authors’ previously published article, McKeen, J. D., and H. A. Smith. “Creating IT Shared Services.” Communications of the Association for Information Systems 29, Article 34 (October 2011): 645–656. Reproduced by permission of the Association for Information Systems. A “shared service” is the “provision of a service by one part of an organization where that service had previously been found in more than one part of the organization. Thus the funding and resourcing of the service is shared and the providing department effectively becomes an internal service provider” (Wikipedia 2014). The key idea is “sharing” within an organization. It suggests centralization of resources, uniformity of service, consistent processes for service provisioning, econo- mies of scale, reduced headcount, and enhanced professionalism. As such it has definite appeal for IT organizations, and creating them has been identified as one of the effective habits of successful CIOs (Andriole 2007). For the business, an IT shared service is also appealing but for a different set of reasons. Although the promise of reducing costs, time, and complexity through reuse and the ability to leverage IT skills and knowledge are attractive, they rank a distant second to the ability to free up resources by transferring responsibility for a noncore activity to another organizational body. Not surprisingly, the successful creation of a shared service is by necessity an exercise in goal alignment (between the business and IT) coupled with a strategy for goal attainment. A shared services organization constitutes an alternate business model. Therefore, the decision to adopt a shared services model entails a number of critical questions for management, such as What are the key attributes of a good candidate for a shared service? How should a shared service be organized, managed, and governed? What is the relationship between shared services and the parent organization? What can be learned from experience with a shared services model? What theoretical and practical insight is offered by published studies of shared services? This chapter explores these questions. It begins with a review of the published literature to provide some definitional clarity concerning the shared services model � $IBQUFS�� r� $SFBUJOH�*5�4IBSFE�4FSWJDFT 89 and to differentiate shared services from other closely related models. The remainder of the chapter focuses on the key management issues surrounding the IT shared services model, including the pros and cons, key organizational factors, and identifying candidate shared services. It concludes with an integrated shared services conceptual model and recommendations for moving toward successful shared services in IT. IT SHARED SERVICES: AN OVERVIEW As already noted, the key high-level concepts of a shared service are that a single group within the o.

FOR THE ESSAY QUESTIONS, ANSWER THE TWO QUESTIONS INDICATED IN BOLD – PLEASE INSERT A PAGE BREAK BETWEEN THE TWO ANSWERS. ===================================================================== 1. Ittelson proposed four components to environmental perception. These components were: a. structure, function, utility, and complexity b. line, form, color, and texture c. cognitive, affective, interpretive, and evaluative d. complexity, mystery, convergence, and enframement 2. The descriptive approach to environmental assessments incorporates artistic and architectural principles of line, form, color, and texture. This view also believes that "dominance principles" influence our perceptions, as well. Which one of the following is one of these dominance principles? a. arousal b. mystery c. enframement d. overstimulation 3. If you were to draw a cognitive map of the city or town in which you live, and you mentally move through the environment, drawing what you “see” in your memory, then this pattern suggests that your map is stored in memory in which way? a. proportional b. adaptational c. imaginal d. propositional 4. Cognitive maps with the most detail typically are drawn by those who: a. usually walk through the environment b. usually drive through the environment in private cars c. usually take public transportation through the environment d. are relatively new to the environment, as they tend to pay greater attention to the details 5. Newcomers to areas typically begin their cognitive maps with which feature? a. limits b. paths c. districts d. landmarks 6. A researcher has a digital recording of construction sounds - hammers, cement mixers, drills, and jackhammers. A sample of 100 college students is randomly divided into two groups and placed in identical rooms located at different ends of the same building on a college campus. This recording is played at 50 dB (a measure of sound intensity) to those in one room while they perform a proofreading task. At the same time, the recording is played at a more intense sound level (75 dB) to the other group, while they do the same proofreading task. The number of errors made by these two groups of students is compared statistically. What research method did this researcher use to study the effects of noise on this cognitive task? a. an experimental method b. a quasi-experimental (ex post facto) method c. a correlational method d. an accretion method 7. The COVID-19 pandemic is creating a great deal of stress for many people for a number of reasons. Clinical psychologists have predicted that the mental health of people living in the various “hotspots” of the virus, such as New York/New Jersey, Michigan, and Washington state, will be more severely impacted than those living in areas with fewer cases.

8.1 Assignment Case Study #1 Psychological Aspects of Violent Crime Week 8 Case Studies Jim, a 48-year-old engineer, works at a medium-size engineering firm. He has been employed with the firm for 16 years. He is described by co-workers as serious and thin-skinned, having no sense of humor, and distrusting of others. He lives alone, does not socialize with his neighbors, and often engages in angry accusations of something the neighbors or their children did that caused him distress or offended him in some way. He holds grudges forever, seemingly holding on to every real or perceived slight he has ever experienced. Jim is constantly writing letters to the utility company, city officials, and his congressional leaders about the injustices constantly inflicted upon him. ckley, C., Mack, S., Beyer, K., & Erdberg, P.

76 CHAPTER 4 Assessing Health and Health Behaviors Objectives this chapter will enable the reader to: 1. Describe the expected outcomes of a nursing health assessment. 2. Identify the components of a nursing health assessment conducted for an individual client. 3. Examine life span, language, and culturally appropriate nursing health assessment tools for children, adults, and older adults. 4. Compare the similarities and differences among the various approaches to assessing the family, mindful of cultural influences. 5. Evaluate the criteria for conducting a screening in the community. 6. Compare the similarities and differences among the various approaches to assessing the community. Athorough assessment of health and health behaviors is the foundation for tailoring a health promotion-prevention plan. Assessment provides the database for making clinical judgments about the client’s health strengths, health problems, nursing diagnoses, desired health or behavioral outcomes, as well as the interventions likely to be effective. This information also forms the nature of the client–nurse partnership such as the frequency of contact and the need for coordination with other health professionals. The portfolio of assessment measures depends on the characteristics of the client, including developmental stage and cultural orientation. The nurse assesses age, language, and cultural appropriateness of the various measures selected. Cultural competence is the ability to communicate effectively with people of different cultures. Providing culturally competent care is the cornerstone of the nursing assessment. The nurse’s aware- ness of her own attitude toward cultural differences and her cultural worldview and characteristics Chapter4 • AssessingHealthandHealthBehaviors 77 are critical to her understanding and knowledge of various cultures. Recognizing that diversity exists in all cultures based on educational level, socioeconomic status, religion, rural/urban residence, and individual and family characteristics will ensure a more successful encounter (The Office of Minority Health, 2013). An online cultural educational program, designed specifically for nurses and featur- ing videotaped case studies and interactive tools, is available. The Enhanced National Standards for Culturally and Linguistically Appropriate Services, based on a definition of culture expanded to include geography, spirituality, language, race and ethnicity, and biology, provides a practical guide to culturally and linguistically sensitive care (The Office of Minority Health, 2013). Technology is having a significant impact on health care. The Electronic Health Record (EHR) promotes involvement of the client in developing a dynamic, tailored database. The EHR offers great promise to improve health and increase the client’s satisfaction with his care. Data aggregation, cross-continuum coordination, and clinical care plan management are critical components of the.
