Cities get divided by war, religion, politics, national boundaries–or by all of the above. Often a smaller city may be nested within a larger city as in the case of Sun City within Phoenix, or Old Delhi in Delhi, India. While some divisions are peaceful, others are conflicted. For example, are there divides in culture and lifestyles? Do the two sides WANT a wall or not? How do people move across boundaries? How does the economy work? Maybe the poor on one side work for the rich on the other (as in South African cities, even today).
For this paper, choose your city. Then focus on one or two aspects of your chosen city. Economy? Logisticshow do people travel? Is one side or the other in control?

For your final paper for this class, please write 4-5 pages (1.5 spaced) on your chosen divided city.

References in addition to your page count. Provide a minimum of four references. While you will draw online for much of your information, please consult at least ONE journal article–this will point to areas of discussion.

Group A: A newspaper columnist signs a contract with a newspaper chain. Several months later she is offered a position with another newspaper chain at a higher salary. Because she would prefer making more money, she notifies the first chain that she is breaking her contract. The courts will decide the legality of her action. But what of the morality? Did the columnist behave ethically?
An airline pilot goes for his regular medical checkup. The doctor discovers that he has developed a heart murmur. The pilot only has a month to go before he is eligible for retirement. The doctor know this and wonders whether, under these unusual circumstances, she is justified in withholding the information about the pilots condition.
Group B: An office worker had a record of frequent absence. He used all his vacation and sick leave days and frequently requested additional leave without pay. His supervisor and co-workers expressed great frustration because his absenteeism caused bottlenecks in paperwork, created low morale in the office, and required others to do his work in addition to their own. On the other hand, he felt he was entitled to take his earned time and additional time off without pay. Was he right?
Rhonda enjoys socializing with fellow employees at work, but their discussion usually consists of gossiping about other people, including several of her friends. At first Rhonda feels uncomfortable talking in this way about people she is close to, but then she decided it does no real harm and she feels no remorse for joining in.
Please wait until at least Thursday to begin working on this assignment so you can include the information we are learning in the threads and in our readings in your thought processes.
Parameters for writing this paper:
1. Answer the questions raised in the problems above. You will have two separate sections to your paper, one on each separate question in your chosen group. You do not have to write an “English class” style paper this week. Answer each problem separately.
2. While writing your answers, incorporate the ideas of “good vs. evil,” “wrong vs. right,” and “ought/should be vs. what is.”
3. Explain in your answer to each problem how Augustine and Aquinas would have solved the problem based on what we learned about each here in the materials and course, and if they differ, why?
4. Your two sets of answers should be about two pages, double spaced.

I expect your paper to be written in the form of a well-structured essayhaving an introduction, a body, and a conclusion.
The most weight is given to the relevance of the content, and the critical reasoning exhibited in the paper. A high-quality, well-reasoned essay will have a compelling argument. Merely stating your opinion is not an argument. Convince the reader that your opinion is correct. (This is the same point as regards high-quality posts in the discussions.) This is the area where I would like to see you grow over the term.
The required content will also be graded in terms of logical reasoning, and philosophical insight.
Consider the ethical dilemma given below. Write an ethics paper about it, including all the following information and analysis:
1. Solve the dilemma using any two of the following Three Primary Schools of Ethics we discuss this week from our assigned reading. (Ends based, Rules based, or Care based).
2. Explain the similarities and differences in your two solutions to the same dilemma.
3. State (and justify) whether you feel the two schools of ethics are worthy of use in “real life” dilemmas.
4. Do you feel that Aristotle would have approved of either of your solutions? Why or why not?
Please note that your ethics papers this term will be a great practice for you in doing the Final Exam. Your final exam is an essay exam which will follow a very similar format to the homework assignments…so please be sure to spend some time doing your readings and applying them to your written assignments.
Your papers should be about two typed pages, double spaced. Use the DeVry standard format for the paper (the title page and citation pages do not count among the two pages). Please organize your thoughts, use headings, and create readable documents with grammar and spelling checked.
The Dilemma will be your choice from either of the two following:
Choice 1: Over the past few decades, a sizable industry has arisen to serve the demand for ready-made and even customized compositions and term papers. Many students presumably believe there is nothing morally wrong with the practice of buying one of these papers and turning it in to fulfill a course requirement. Review what you read about plagiarism in this chapter. Then write a several-paragraph explanation of its message for a friend who doesnt get it. (Be sure to follow the approach explained in that section so you avoid committing plagiarism yourself).
Choice 2: A married couple, both addicted to drugs, are unable to care for their infant daughter. She is taken from them by court order and placed in a foster home. The years pass. She comes to regard her foster parents as her real parents. They love her as they would their own daughter. When the child is 9 years old, the natural parents, rehabilitated from drugs, begin court action to regain custody. The case is decided in their favor. The child is returned to them, against her will. Does ethics support the law in this case? Discuss

Address each of the following:

1. Describe the two technologies you selected and explain how each relates to supply chain management. Provide at least one example of an actual organization that uses each of the two technologies you selected.

2. Using various combinations of the keywords legal, law, regulation, ethical, ethics, as well as keywords associated with one of the technologies you selected, find and discuss a connection between your selected technology and ethics or law

After reviewing the timeline, the CEO asks Betty what their organization can do to prevent such tragedies. After a brief conversation, the CEO mentions that the organization will be laying-off 10 employees in the next two weeks. The CEO asked her to think of some safety measures to be considered at their upcoming meeting with the entire management team.

Later that day, she receives an email from the CEO asking if it would be a good idea to bring his personal gun to work (for protection) and have it locked up in a safe. She is troubled and calls her friend who is a “Senior Professional in Human Resources (SPHR)” to help analyze this situation.

Case Study Questions

What questions would her SPHR friend ask Betty Smith?
Do you think it is a good idea for the CEO to bring a gun to work? Justify your response. Consider the Second Amendment.
Should there be covert “armed” employees at each organization that are carefully selected (after a thorough background check) by HR managers? Explain why or why not.
What are some issues with the traditional way of having an unarmed security guard sitting at the front desk?
What rules and regulations must be taken into consideration when making the decision? Interesting enough, Indiana is one of 13 states that signed into law a measure that bans employers from telling workers that they can’t have guns in their cars. Should all states consider such laws? Justify your response.

The purpose of this assignment is to draft a preliminary review of information sources for your applied research study. This assignment will be used to help you develop a draft prospectus. The review of information sources provides a summary of the history of your topic, recent research in the field, and other pertinent information sources relevant to the topic which may not be based on prior research (e.g., past handbooks or manuals, review of competitors manuals, other relevant documents, etc.). It should include information about theories, theorists, and a detailed explanation about why this area of research is important, as well as include information that is important or relevant to the specific organization and study. A review of information sources should read like a coherent essay instead of a list of article summaries (annotated bibliography).

Tasks:

Your information source review should include the following:

Select publications that were published in the past 10 years.
Major theorists in the area that have shaped your discipline and/or applied research topic.
Identify a minimum of ten publications, including at least one applied research article.
Select documents from the organization that provide information on past policies or practices relevant to the topic.
Select documents from similar organizations within the field, such as competitors, that provide information on similar policies and practices relevant to the topic.
Draft a clear paper describing the background and recent research about your topic.
Explain why your research project is important to your field.
Note: You may refine the literature review started in W7000 and revised in earlier research courses.

All written assignments and responses should follow APA rules for attributing sources. Your final paper will be a 3- to 8-page Microsoft Word document (excluding title and reference pages) written in APA 6th edition format and utilizing at least seven scholarly sources.

Part 3 Marketing Plan (Due in Week 6, 30 points)

distribution strategies (how you will distribute the product or service to your target market);
promotion strategies (how you will promote your product or service); and
pricing strategies (how you will price your product or service).
You should clearly articulate how your intended strategies satisfy the needs of your target market.
The length of the marketing plan component should be 800-1600 words. You should cite all sources in APA style, both in text and at the end of the document. You are required to have at least three sources to support this component of the paper.
