The practice of health care providers at all levels brings you into contact with people from a variety of faiths. This calls for knowledge and understanding of a diversity of faith expressions; for the purpose of this course, the focus will be on the Christian worldview.

Based on “Case Study: End of Life Decisions,” the Christian worldview, and the worldview questions presented in the required topic study materials you will complete an ethical analysis of George’s situation and his decision from the perspective of the Christian worldview.

Provide a 1,500-2,000-word ethical analysis while answering the following questions:

  1. How would George interpret his suffering in light of the Christian narrative, with an emphasis on the fallenness of the world?
  2. How would George interpret his suffering in light of the Christian narrative, with an emphasis on the hope of resurrection?

Our readings this week address the topic of globalization, crime and terrorism. I selected a reading by Javed Younas titled “Does Globalization Mitigate the Adverse Effects of Terrorism on Growth”. This is an important reading on several fronts since terrorist operations often are motivated to disrupt national economies while making the domestic population wary of international economic interference in domestic affairs. It is a complicated reading given its statistical method but Younas does a good job of explaining his primary findings. The second article by Gregg Barak focuses on globalization’s impact on crime and crime control practices at the domestic and international levels by looking at 15 different nations.

My first question is below:

The study by Younas focuses on 120 developing nations over a period of time from 1976-2008. Paying meticulous attention to the statistical analysis of his panel data, his findings seem consistent regarding this interplay of terrorism, globalization and economic growth. I would like you to state in your own words what you think is his primary finding. What other research findings did you find interesting and explain why they struck you as interesting. Finally, discuss the implications of the U-shaped relationship between globalization and growth in terms of how developing nations might better manage globalization to maximize its effect on both terrorism and growth.

Note: When you are done, I will send you classmates posts, please help me to answer their questions!

in a paper of 500 600 words discuss the lifestyle factors in your chosen age group that may be associated with the two causes of death you chose

/in /by

You may recall learning earlier in the course that the 10 leading causes of death in the United States have changed considerably since the 20th century. Many of the risk factors associated with the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in adults in the U. S. currently are associated with health behavior and lifestyle choices. Community health workers must understand the health profile and common lifestyle and behavioral patterns of specific age groups in order to develop and offer effective primary, secondary and tertiary intervention programs and strategies. However, getting people to change their behavior can be a “hard sell”.

1. Choose a specific age group as identified in this week’s readings – Adolescent, young adult, or adult

2. Go to this website to view the current facts on the 10 Leading Causes of Death in the U.S. http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/fastats/leading-causes-of-death.htm (opens in new tab)

3. Choose 2 causes from the Leading Causes of Death list that can be considered diseases of lifestyle

4. In a paper of 500-600 words, discuss the lifestyle factors in your chosen age group that may be associated with the two causes of death you chose.

5. In your summary/closing of the paper, comment on why you think diseases of lifestyle are so difficult to prevent. In other words, why do the causes of death associated with diseases of lifestyle persistently rank so highly in the U. S.?

This assignment is to be written in APA format (including Title Page and References page). I

project about face masks

/in /by

Three items：

A main story (800 to 1,000 words, including at least two hyperlinks)

Main Story：Does wearing a face mask really prevent coronavirus? （Protective effect of masks，people ’s thoughts about not wearing a mask now, or etc.）

A sidebar (400 to 500 words, including at least two hyperlinks)

A multimedia element such as a photo gallery, chart, informational graphic, audio file or video.

The topic can be local, state, national or international — but you must talk to people who can provide authoritative information, so be sure to pick a topic for which such sources will be available. Talk to as many sources as are necessary to give you two complete, fair and balanced stories — probably six or more sources for your main story and three or more sources for your sidebar.

Your hypothetical audience for the whole project is the students who read the Tropolitan.

You could have a main story about an issue or a situation and a human-interest sidebar, in which you focus on a particular person or a small group of people deeply affected by the main story. Or the people might be your main story, with the sidebar describing the general situation.

The multimedia element cannot be something you found on the internet or elsewhere. It must be something you created yourself. A single photograph is not sufficient, although a gallery or PowerPoint presentation of five or six original photos will be fine. You must include captions and/or other text necessary to make your photos, videos, audio or other materials understandable to the reader.

excel question with data file

/in /by

I will provide one file and then answer question :

You just learned how to create a correlation matrix and to run a regression analysis in Excel. Now, it’s time to apply your new skills to a new dataset, which appears in the sheet called “Practice” in the Excel workbook. This time, your team is assessing the criterion-related validities for a scored structured interview (StructuredInterview) and work sample assessment (WorkSample) in relation to overall job performance (JobPerformance) for a Software Developer job. You have already established that both selection procedures are significantly associated with job performance by themselves (as evidenced by correlation analyses), and now it’s time assess whether there is any redundancy between the two selection procedure variables (i.e., very large correlation), if both are still significantly associated with job performance when specified in the same regression model, and what the collective criterion-related validity of the selection procedures are in terms of the R-squared value. Respond to the following questions.

1.Is there any concerning amount of redundancy between scores on the structured interview and scores on the work sample? How do you know?

2.Are both selection procedure variables still significantly associated with job performance when specified in the same multiple linear regression model? How do you know?

3.What is the R-square value for the model? What does this value indicate?

4.Do you recommend that the organization use both selection procedures in the future? Why or why not?

fin homework 6

a) Explain the preemptive right.

b) What is the classified stock?

Refer to the following examples for part c) and d)

A firm is expected to pay a $2 dividend per share next year and its dividend is expected to grow at a constant rate of 6% per year. If the required rate of return on the firm’s stock is 10%, what is the firm’s stock price (or intrinsic price) today?

Because the dividend has a constant growth rate from the next year, the constant growth model can be used. According to the constant growth model,

Stock price (intrinsic price) today = the next year’s dividend per share / (required rate of return – dividend growth rate) = $2/(0.1 – 0.06) = $50.

A firm has just paid a $1.5 dividend per share. If the required rate of return is 12% and the constant growth rate is 5%, what is the stock price (intrinsic price) today?

$1.5 dividend is today’s dividend, not the next year’s. So, we need the next year’s dividend to use the constant growth model. Since the dividend grows at a 5% constant rate, the next year’s dividend should be 1.5*(1+.05) = $1.58 (=> Actually this is the future value of today’s dividend)

Then, the stock price today = 1.58/(.12 – .05) = $22.57

c) Suppose that Troy Inc. has just paid a $3 dividend per share. If the required rate of return is 15% and the dividend is expected to grow at a constant rate of 4%, what is the stock price today?

d) BMC is expected to pay a $1 dividend per share next year. If the stock price today is $20, what is the required rate of return? Assume that the dividend is expected to grow at a constant growth rate of 3%.
