Outline

I. Introduction A. Introduction

i. Both founding fathers George Washington and Thomas Jefferson grew the hemp plant as a source of income, harvesting the fibers for rope and fabric production. Marijuana was also a common ingredient in medicine at the time (PBS).

ii. Some people argue that pot is a gateway drug, but in truth alcohol is the problem. Marijuana can be used for medicinal purposes. Legalizing marijuana can reduce drug trafficking and crime.

iii. Marijuana should be legalized with the same restrictions as alcohol. II. Body paragraphs

A. Background information (only if necessary!) i. History of Marijuana

ii. Used frequently from 1600-1890 iii. 1906 Food and Drug Act iv. Creation of the US Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) in 1973 v. War on Drugs in 80s

vi. California first state to legalize pot in 1996 vii. All information from PBS,

https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/shows/dope/etc/cron.html A. Counterargument (opposing view only)

i. Gateway drug ii. According to Stacey Sugar, the clinical director at the Towson-based

Maryland Addiction Recovery Network, “marijuana could be a gateway drug for some, but not everyone, and that a lot depends on the user and whether they are predisposed to addiction…Marijuana is the easiest drug to get a hold of after alcohol and cigarettes, and some of those who like a marijuana high may be more interested in trying other highs” (qtd. in Synder).

iii. Too dangerous to legalize B. Refutation

i. Alcohol is the gateway drug ii. “A study published in the peer-reviewed Journal of School Health has

concluded that the theory of a gateway drug is not associated with marijuana, but rather one of the most damaging and socially accepted drugs in the world, alcohol” (Scharff).

iii. Alcohol should be regulated not pot

iv. 7-11 doesn’t sell heroine like back ally drug dealers; make it legal to stop drug dealers encouraging people to do harder, more dangerours drugs

C. Supporting paragraph i. Treat multiple illnesses

ii. “Cannabis use for autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD), and pregnant women treated for hyperemesis gravidarum (HG)” (Koren and Cohen)

iii. Safer for children and pregnant women; helping special kids adjust to social situations

iv. “Marijuana, especially for military personnel experiencing elevated PTSD symptoms may negatively impact suicidal thoughts and behavior” (Allan et al.).

v. Help our veteran heroes adjust to civilian life. D. Supporting paragraph

i. Can be used as an alternative to opioids ii. Cannabis can be used as an alternative to opioids for pain management

(Khangura). iii. Less addiction and deaths due to opioid addiction iv. Personal example of a friend who died from an opioid overdose

E. Supporting paragraph (strongest evidence goes here) i. Less crime and drug trafficking more taxes

ii. Since marijuana is not legal on the federal level, some state dispensaries are being targeted by the government and fined or raided. But they are paying taxes and illegal drug traffickers do not (Alsharaiha).

iii. Make it legal on the federal level to increase tax revenue and stop illegal trafficking; making it safer for our communities

iv. Taxes can be used to better our schools II. Conclusion (choose one)

A. Support politician who promote the legalization of recreational marijuana on the federal level and vote

Power BI Homework

Description: 

The model dataset is a list of movie / series titles from Netlix (netflix_titles.csv), which is stored in the same folder as this file. 

Dataset loading and editing in Power Query Load the netflix titles.csv file into Power BI. In Power Query, check that the data types are correct, or edit the column names if you want to follow a different naming convention. 

Filter records where type = blank or type = “William Wyler”. Upload to Power BI Desktop. Visualization Upload the Netflix logo, visually tune the report to its colors (see manual). 

Add a report title and slicer to switch between title / series type / movie. Add a card visual with the total number of titles. Add a line chart according to the number of titles added over time. Top 5 countries by number of titles – choose the appropriate visualization. Top 5 genres by number of titles – choose the appropriate visualization. Table with titles and descriptions of titles – will serve as detailed information when filtering between visuals. At least 1 visualization at your own discretion 🙂 

Data questions

 In which year did the most series be added and how many? On what day did the most movies be added and how many? How many titles did the Czech Republic participate in? On how many series and how many movies? Which country combination has the most titles? Bonus Which film is the shortest and which is the longest? What is the maximum number of actors assigned to a title? 

Form of submission: The final file with the report. 

Any topic (writer’s choice)

In your final assignment you are tasked with demonstrating theoretical synthesis and critical reflection. You will be evaluated by your ability to define key concepts, support your arguments, and apply class and textual material. The expectation here is a well-reasoned series of answers with a high level of critical thinking, originality of thought, and mastery of the subject matter. The writing should be structured and is expected to have no discernible grammatical or phrasing issues.

Using at least three sources (primarily long form, investigative newspaper or magazine articles). I would like you to analyze the political-economic situation in Bolivia over the last three or so years.

Consider the spectrum of actors involved. The regional context and the importance of external forces: from the Organisation of American States (OAS) to the United States. Theoretically, what is the iron law of oligarchy? How does it relate to Bolivia’s Movement Towards Socialism?

You are encouraged to provide context with any information you deem necessary. And, perhaps most importantly, apply themes from our textbook including structural, rational choice, or cultural theory.

A:

Review the document. 

 

Assume upper management of the organization is interested in understanding the impact its branding and competitive strategies have on consumer choice, as well as the impact of the bargaining power of consumers in the health care market, especially on your products and services. 

 

Prepare a 1,050-word summary of branding and competitive strategies’ impact on consumer choice and bargaining power on ECRHS. 

 

Part I: Branding Strategy Impact 

Analyze the impact that the current ECRHS brand has on consumer choice of its products and services. In your analysis, consider the following: 

· What is the current branding strategy of ECRHS? 

· How are the organization and its brand(s) perceived in the market? 

· Are there any negative impacts of legal cases against the organization within the community or its consumers? How might this impact their choice of a health care provider? 

· How have your acquisitions of other health care facilities impacted your brand image and hence consumer choice of your organization? 

· How has your handling of the COVID-19 pandemic impacted your brand image? 

· What impact do your branding strategies have on consumer choice and bargaining power? 

 

Part II: Competitive Strategies Impact 

Analyze the impact that the current ECRHS competitors have on consumer choice of its products and services. In your analysis, consider the following: 

· Who are the 3 largest competitors, and how do their offerings differ from those of ECRHS? 

· What share of the market do the competitors hold? 

· What are the threats of new entrants to the market and the organization? 

· What is the threat of competitive/substitute products/services to the organization? 

· What is the bargaining power of customers in the market? 

· How does this bargaining power impact consumer choice in the market and for ECRHS? 

 

Cite at least 3 reputable references to support your assignment (e.g., trade or industry publications, government or agency sites, scholarly works, or other sources of similar quality). 

Format your citations per APA guidelines.

 

B: Due 4/17/2022 Today

Drug companies are pursuing collaborative efforts with other companies to manage in the world of pharmacogenomics and individualized medicine.

Respond to the following in a minimum of 175 words:

· What are some examples of these collaborative efforts by pharmaceutical companies (e.g., Accelerated Medical Partnership (AMP) program)? 

· What are some examples of the value in partnerships and collaborations in health care service systems? 

C:

Respond to classmates

R1

One example of collaborative efforts by pharmaceutical companies is Pfizer/BioNTech for the treatment of the Corona Virus. BioNTech led the R & D and Pfizer, clinical trials.

By partnering, they were able to effectively and efficiently roll out a very new treatment option in record time with significant positive results. Pfizer has additionally partnered with IBM to explore new drug targets for research and data analysis. This type of partnership is a way that pharmaceutical companies can eliminate wasting money and time on treatments that are essentially not viable.

I work for a healthcare system and some examples of partnership and collaboration are understanding the value of each unit's service lines and not competing against each other. Additionally, the care provided to the consumer is generally better once the competition is eliminated as this allows practitioners to send their patients to the hospital that is the best fit for the disease that is being treated.

Collaborations and partnerships with the community and local first responders are integral to a healthcare system's overall success especially when there are competitors nearby.

R2

Due to the fact that I have never considered what collaborative efforts are made by pharmaceutical companies, I had to dig a little to understand. However, When I was younger I remember hearing about these companies that would pay people to run trials on medication or vaccines that they would take for a certain amount of time. The purpose would be to see how it made the, react, or hope that the medication would work at all. Depending on what would happen after the trial, if the trial was successful, these pharmaceutical companies would then produce the doses needed by the thousands to meet supply and demand. I am more than sure this had to be done for the vaccines that were produced for covid-19.

As far as partnerships and collaborations in healthcare service systems, the relationship between ambulances and hospitals comes to mind. Until a few years ago, I never realized that Ambulatory vehicles were basically privately owned. however, they work very closely with the hospitals and most of the time have contracts to work with certain privately owned hospitals. Their job is to respond to the person who has an emergency and get them to the nearest healthcare facility immediately. These are two different companies that are working together to save a patient's life. I imagine having an emergency and there is no way to get you where you need to go, Because of these collaborative efforts in both situations, lives are saved and prolonged every single day. One hand truly does wash the other in this industry.

Students are required to submit weekly reflective narratives throughout the course that will culminate in a final, course-long reflective journal due in Topic 10. The narratives help students integrate leadership and inquiry into current practice.

This reflection journal also allows students to outline what they have discovered about their professional practice, personal strengths and weaknesses, and additional resources that could be introduced in a given situation to influence optimal outcomes. Each week students should also explain how they met a course competency or course objective(s).
