Writer ID number 386171 did my planning sheep essay. And now I need you to do my final essay in 5 paragraphs with intro and conclusion. please let me know if you have any question. Defining Topic, Angle, Purpose
1. What is your chosen topic? (For example: a profile of Barb Collins, a volunteer at the local homeless shelter; a profile of “Shipwreck Days,” a citywide flea market and festival; or a profile of Burdick’s Grocery, the oldest family-owned business in town.)
My chosen topic is the “profile of Barb Collins, a volunteer at the local homeless center”.
2. What personal angle can you present on this topic? (Consider what is new about the topic or what unique perspective can be shared about this topic.)
Barb Collins was fortunate enough to graduate from college and managed to get a good full time job, despite the fact that he was raised in a homeless shelter. During his childhood years, Barb Collins was faced with a very difficult task of having to cover for almost all the expenses in his life including his schooltuition fees. He was raised by a single mother, but unfortunately, his mother lost her house to a bank, and therefore they were forced to live in a homeless center.
3. What is your purpose for writing? (What do you hope to accomplish? Why are you writing?)
The purpose of writing this profile is to show that despite all the troubles, anyone can succeed in life. The profile describes Collins’ troubles during his lifetime and how he managed to deal with them and eventually succeed. After his success, he further went on to give back to the society that was too harsh on him and became a volunteer at a local homeless center.

Analyzing your Readers
You will be writing your Profile essay to your local community. Imagine you might submit the Profileto your local newspaper or have it shared in a community newsletter; The readers of thosepublications make up your target audience. In two to three paragraphs, define your local communityand describe what makes it unique. What are the needs, expectations, motivations, backgrounds,demographics, and experiences of community members? How will those influences impact your wordchoice, level of formality, and overall message?
The western side of Indianapolis is quite a hard place to grow up in especially is living in a homeless shelter. Single moms are the most affected because there are not many resources to support them or help them raise their children. Also in the recent times the crime rate has gradually increased and in most cases, the homeless people are blamed for the said crimes. the community is also surrounded by poverty, and most children do not make it to college as their situation force them to indulge in such things as alcohol selling drugs or even prostitution in order to sustain themselves.
Barb Collins, works as a volunteer in a homeless center in this neighborhood. His volunteer works provide some sense of security to the homeless and also gives them hope that despite all their misfortunes, there is still a lot of good things awaiting them out there. Collins has come out to be some breath of fresh air to the homeless youth in the society as he gets to show them that there is more to life than drugs and prostitution. He manages to provide the said homeless youth with various tasks to keep them busy in order to keep them away from crimes. Collins also provides some basic needs to the homeless especially during winter. Best of all he makes sure to talk to them in order to give them hope to live one day at a time.
Despite all his efforts and success Collins is getting overwhelmed as the number of homeless continues to increase and sometimes he is not able to provide some basic needs to all of them. He is worried that he is not doing his best to provide these homeless people, especially the youth with enough resources to keep them away from crimes. He feels that he is letting these vulnerable youths down. These kids really need some motivation to enable them to continue with their education despite the hardships that surrounds them. Collins has started looking for more volunteers to help in motivating the homeless people. This way, the crime rate would go down in the community, as most of the youth who would have otherwise been in the streets committing crimes would be doing something constructive with Collins and other volunteers.
Reflecting on the Role of Writer
Whether you realize it or not, your personal relationship to the subject plays a key role in shaping theProfile essay. Remember, your personal brand is shaped, in many ways, by your communityinfluences. Just as you make choices in terms of how you present your brand through writing,personal choices will also impact how you present the subject of your Profile. In two to threeparagraphs, discuss your personal relationship to the subject. How have personal impacts, needs,motivations, and relationships shaped your topic, angle, and purpose?
I am from Indianapolis and I have some friends who live in homeless shelters. I have personally seen the transformation that has been brought about by Collins to the youths. I know of some young people who were involved in drugs and alcohol, but have currently gone back to school. His efforts and encouragements have surely not gone to waste.
Being a college student, I am also faced with many hardships, especially peer pressure. Since I no longer live with my parents, sometimes am forced to make ends meet, and even sometimes get tempted to get involved in crimes in order to get some extra cash. However barb Collins volunteer work in the homeless shelter continue encouraging me to go on with life without having to get involved in crimes. His success in life also has proved to me that anyone can make it, despite their backgrounds, and that is a priceless gift I have received from Barb Collins.

I need a prototype, creating for example a 3D sketch/ drawings for a new innovation that is Adjustable size shoe. the 3D sketch/drawings should be clear, easy and very convincing for the parents to purchase the product. the target is school kids from 6-12 years old.
My best idea is:
Adjustable size shoe

• The shoe is an accessory that almost all the people in the world uses. There are more than six billion in the world that would require a pair of shoes. The current market offers a disposable shoe where the customer must change the shoe every year due to fashion standards, change of size or failure. The innovation works for the people that will change sizes in a period of one or two years when you may maintain its qualities.
• The market of scholar students is the main market of the adjustable size shoe. The students of primary school with ages from 6 to 13 years change sizes every year and in some cases in the same year. The use of adjustable size shoes is a response to the necessity to have a shoe despite the change of size of the foot of the client.
• Better than compete with the traditional shoe market, the innovation would be available to the traditional shoe makers to adopt the standard of adjustable size and offer new designs to the people with the adjustable size technology. The technology uses microorganism inside the shoe that regenerates the volume increasing the size according to the “growth” force of the foot

 
This is a Research Methods class and the proffessor is asking for a research proposal and we discussed my topic and here is the disscusion;

ME; I have come to the decision that my topic will be ” Effects of Getting Married Early”, I will create a questionnaire for women and men between the ages of 18-21 that are married in the army. This questionnaire will ask questions that will show how long he/she has known this person, resons of marriage, conflicts after getting marriage, and if they think the marriage is going to last more than 5 years from now. This topic seems to be a little rough but its comng a longas research more and more on the topic.

PROFESSOR: That is an interesting idea. Perhaps you could propose a study in which you examine the personalities of people age 17-21 who are getting married to someone they have not known for more than 6 months.

There is a common theory of personality known as the Five Factor Model that is commonly used in personality research. I have attached a paper that described it. Personality is measured with questionnaires, so this would be a pretty easy study to propose. Also, because getting married to someone rather quickly could be considered an impulsive behavior, so I have also attached an article linking the Five Factor Model of personality to impulsivity in people. Feel free to use both of these papers as references.

I hope this helps.

I will attach the two references that he gave me to use and I will attach the rubric as well as a sample paper that he issued out to us.

SAMPLE PAPER
Effects of Artificial Light on Mood
Author Name

Abstract
There has been a lot of speculation on whether artificial light has any affect on a person’s mood. This experiment will take 100 participants (50 male and 50 female) and expose them to bright or dim light, depending on the group they are randomly selected to be in. There have been numerous studies done on the matter including those of Lewis’s (2013) article on the effect of light on the circadian rhythm of mice. Lewis’s (2013) results turned up being that artificial light has depression lifting effects. Not only has this study been done with mice; Iwata, Ichii and Egashira (1997) used bright artificial light on shift work nurses and yielded similar results, improvement of mood. This paper aims to strengthen the claim of artificial light improving the mood of human beings and to further progress in support of use of artificial light in treatment of mood disorders.

Effects of Artificial Light on Mood
In the past there have been studies conducted on the effects of Artificial Light on the mood of any given person. Many of those studies have been in relation to recovery in hospitals, tanning, mood of workers, and many other aspects of one’s mood. Of those studies, most of them revealed positive effects of light on the mood. However, some research done on the subject show that artificial light in forms of electronics (computers, phones, and television) can have a negative effect on the mood and the body as a whole. Lewis (2013) suggests that certain levels of light directly influence mood, behavior and learning. Lewis (2013) also suggests that light can affect our Circadian Rhythms, or our 24 hour cycle that is strongly affected by light. A question that is brought up is does lack of Artificial Light bring upon seasonal affective disorder? Another question would be can mood actually be altered by the use of bright artificial light and could it be used as a treatment?I would predict that Artificial Light has a positive effect on a person’s mood regardless of the season and could possibly serve as a type of treatment.This paper not only examines the research of others research to figure out whether Artificial Light actually has an impact on a person’s mood but of conducting a new method of research on this matter.
Lewis (2013) investigated the effects of inappropriately timed light exposure by using mice and exposing them to certain light cycles. Lewis specifically looked at intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs) which project to the brain regions such as the suprachiasmatic nucleus and limbic areas which deals with circadian rhythms and regulation of mood respectively (Lewis 2013).Lewis’s (2013) journal entry discovered that the mice had normal sleep and a normal circadian rhythm cycle, although they had decreased levels of learning. More importantly, the animals displayed depression-like behaviors and increased serum corticosterone, which is associated with depression in humans (Lewis 2013). Lewis’s study brings up possibly an important correlation between light and mood; if this study would apply to humans then we could know whether or not artificial light can in fact affect mood.
An clinical article by Parry and Maurer (2003) takes multiple studies from over the past thirty or so years and applies them to the research of light treatment of mood disorders. Multiple studies in Parry and Maurer’s (2003) articles suggest that light treatment is very effective on those with Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) and Major Depressive Disorder (MDD).
In a study done by Iwata, Ichii and Egashira (1997) female nurses were exposed to different intensities of light. In this study there were two series of five work shifts. The nurses were exposed to light brighter than 3,000 lux for 30 minutes each work shift for the second series, for the first series they worked under normal lighting (approximately 250 lux) (Iwata, Ichii and Egashira 1997). A three-way layout ANOVA, which repeated measures, revealed that bright light tended to improve eagerness and reduce tension during the night shifts, but not the evening shifts (Iwata et al., 1997).
Another study with the involvement of nurses in a hospital by Kakooei et al. (2010) yielded similar results. The 34 nurses were exposed to bright light at 4,500 lux or dim light at 300 lux and were studied under 24 hour realistic conditions at which there plasma cortisol and melatonin were measured (Kakooei et al., 2010). A one-way ANOVA revealed that bright light tends to increase cortisol levels and body temperature as well as improved alertness (Kakooei et al., 2010).
An article dealing with “Midwinter Insomnia” (MI) by Hansen, Bratlid, Lingjarde and Brenn(1987) tests a group of people north of the arctic circle during the “dark period.” A group of MI participants were compared to eight controls in the study where as the MI participants, before light exposure, had significantly lower plasma melatonin levels than the controls (Hansen, Bratlid, Lingjarde and Brenn 1987). The results of the study revealed that after light exposure the MI group’s sleep latency was significantly shortened and their plasma melatonin levels increased to that of the controls (Hansen et al., 1987).
Wever, Polasek and Wildgruber (1983) did an experiments with the use of external zeitgebers or lights to alter human circadian rhythms. Like other studies the exposed groups to higher intensities of light. In dim light of 100 lux or less the results were approximately 27 hours of upper entrainment limit, whereas of higher intensity (400 lux) the upper entrainment was beyond 29 hours (Wever, Polasek, and Wildgruber 1983). “This means that bright light has an effect on the human circadian system which is qualitatively different from that of dim light, and which is similar to the effect of light in most animal experiments” (Wever et al., 1983).

Method
Participants
One-hundred participants (50 men and 50 women) will be randomly selected from the undergraduate study body at the University of Michigan. Any participants who have gone tanning at any time during the two weeks prior to the experiment will be excluded, due to possible mood enhancement. Participants must also turn off all electronics that emit blue light in their room at night during sleep to avoid any potential effects of blue light on circadian rhythms.

Materials
The required materials for this experiment are two rooms with two different sets of lighting – One of which (Group B: the bright lighting) at 4,500 lux, and the other (Group D: the dim lighting) at 300 lux. Lastly, a survey program on a computer will be used to gather mood results using a Profile of Mood States (POMS) design.

Design
Participants randomly assigned to either group B or group D, standing for Bright and Dim respectively. Participantsare to be measured over a week of being exposed to their given light at a certain time each day. The exposure would come in the form of group B experiencing the room with 4,500 lux lighting, and group D would experience the room with 300 lux lighting. Each day after exposure they will report their mood and attitude via POMS survey. This scale asked the following mood states: Anger, Confusion, Depression, Fatigue, Tension, Vigor, and Friendliness. The mood states would be rated with this scale: 0= none, 1= slightly, 2= moderately, 3= quite a bit, 4= extremely.

Procedure
All participants will be gathered in a room and assigned to either group B or group D randomly. Each group will consist of 25 males and 25 females. Once they are selected they will be given times of the week that they have to report to a room that has their given light, group B with 4,500 lux room or group D with 300 lux room. The participants are to report to their rooms every morning between the times of 7a.m. – 9a.m.for a week. Roughly 12 people from each group will have a 30 minute time block in their assigned rooms and be exposed to their light during that time. That pattern would continue with 12 different participants going every 30 minutes starting at 7AM going till 9AM. After exposure, each day at a time between 12p.m. – 3p.m., the participants will complete the POMS survey as a self report method. This process would be repeated for 7 consecutive days. After those 7 days, all of the participants will be debriefed and told the purpose of the experiment

If you want to build a ship, don’t drum up people together to collect wood and don’t assign them tasks and work, but rather teach them to long for the endless immensity of the sea.
—Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince

People around the world are different. They belong to different families and different cultures. Therefore, it is understandable that what motivates one person may not motivate another. As a DBA student, your source of motivation as an employee or student may be different than your classmates’ sources. Previously, you may not have consciously considered what motivates you or those around you. However, considering your own and your colleagues’ experiences with motivation, along with insight provided by research on motivation and leadership, may help you to better motivate yourself and others.

To prepare:

**Consider what personally motivates you as an employee and as a student.

**Post identification and analysis of your personal sources of motivation as an employee or student. Also explain the reasons these sources influence you, situational factors that influence your sources of motivation, and the impact of motivation on your behavior within the organization. Explain how each of these facets of your analysis relate to motivational and leadership theory.

**Be sure to include TWO scholarly resources, in addition to those in the Learning Resources, to support your response.

 
Reply to my classmates post that I will upload and then do the following: –

Consider and discuss Apple’s products. Using the Boston Box matrix (or BCG Matrix, as it is also known), discuss which products can be classified as cash cows, stars, question marks and dogs (Morrison and Wensley, 1991

 

it’s simple. You Go to an Indian restaurant for a meal, and look around. Consider the decor, the artwork, the music (if there’s music playing), the aroma, and of course the food! Do you recognize any imagery or does the experience connect to Indian Religion or Culture? Does the preparation of the food or even the ingredients suggest something about the culture or region where the cuisine originated? Write up your thoughts in a page-long discussion (double spaced, and don’t take up a ton of space at the top of the page with name/class name, etc…that eats up too much space! This isa casual writing assignment…no need for footnotes or citations or anything, this is a personal statement on what you think about your experience.
Consider that you went to an Indian Restaurant Called “King Of Tandoor” that located in Philadelphia, PA USA.

you can look for it on google for pictures and information, and pretend that you went there and start talking about it and answer the questions.
