    According to Cordes, O’Hare and Steuerle the table above represented the change that occurred in tax revenue and charitable giving based on four options. In option one, if all non-itemizers were allowed to deduct their charitable contributions starting from the first dollar given the results support previous claims that the increase in giving to charities does not outweigh the cost of tax revenue (3). Option two took a different approach and proposed to add a floor of $500 to those non-itemizers who file jointly and $250 for those who file single. In order to take a deduction, the contribution had to be in excess of the floor set for the individual. By limiting the deduction, it is seen that the revenue cost became lower while the amount of extra giving that was encouraged did not significantly increase considering the floor provided the subsidy to extra giving rather than giving that would have occurred without any incentive (Cordes, O’Hare & Steuerle 4).…

    One thing that definitely went wrong in the lab was that we had to round about two of our measurements and the reason being was that they were exact. To exemplify, when we were reading the volume for the finishing measurement of the base for trial three, we got exactly 45.00 mL. The only problem was that, we had didn’t really have the two significant decimal numbers. Hence, we rounded our volume to 45.01 mL. Also, we got exactly 23.00 mL for our finishing volume of the acid for trial three. Therefore, once again we rounded it to 23.02mL in order to get at least two significant decimal numbers.…

    Initial Goals: My initial goals for the program was to take in an equation like 5*(4/3+2^(3-1)) and return the answer to it (26.666667 in this case). I intended it to work with simple arithmetic (multiplication, division, addition, subtraction, exponents, and parentheses). My initial brainstorming resulted in an iterative action. The program would follow the order of operations and begin with the contents of innermost parentheses and replace that portion of the input with the answer before moving one step out into what is now the innermost parentheses.…

    Personal values in this setting for Dwight could become complicated for him (ACA, 2014, A.4.b). If I put myself in his shoes, I would not agree to work with in a religious setting in which I did not believe in their same values. That being said, if he is working with a fellow church member, how is he going to keep his personal values from coming into the session? What if he has a client who says they are struggling within the church, do not know if it is true, can he separates how he feels about the church with how the client is feeling?…

    After one week break, week eight, we had to return to the clinical placement, Shalom Manor. Before the break I was on the fourth floor for seven weeks, it took me a couple of weeks to get used to the residents what their likes and dislikes; especially with their seating arrangement in the dining room. Every resident has specific sites that they sit every time they enter the dining room. The reason they sit in the same seat, I believe there would not be confusion with their meal. For example, some table has regular texture diet and another table has a modification in their diet due to different types of health problems.…

    PSY3180 SHORT ANSWER ASSIGNMENT 1 Question 2: History taking History taking from a patient facilitates a comprehensive view of the patient, and a timeline of when neuropsychological symptoms occurred. Answers about the patient’s history and their problems in response to questions asked by the examiner will provide much of the needed information that is required to make an elaborative assessment ((Lezak, Howieson, Bigler & Tranel, 2012). However, considering the severity of the patient’s disease, potential language impairment, lack of alertness, and/or memory, some information about their life can be obtained from other sources, like cognitive functioning records, hospital records or personnel working with the patient, or from family, friends, and employers (Lezak et al., 2012).…

    Why should someone be interested in this problem?(Why is it interesting to analyze this data set?)As students prepare for future semesters they typically want the most information they can get beforechoosing their courses. For some students having a good instructor is very important to them. Resourceslike RateMyProfessors.com offer students a way to “rate” their previous instructors, in order to provideuseful information for future students looking to take a course with that teacher. While it could be arguedthat the opinions of these students are subjective, and that the website could be augmented by non-students(outside the population of interest), the success of RateMyProfessors.com would imply a certain validity intheir model of perceived quality.

    Introduction: John Stuart Mill, although accepts the Radicals legacy in the utilitarian domain, he adds to and supplements their points of views, especially in the areas of human motivation and the true nature of happiness. When we read through Mill’s approach on happiness, we see how a lot of Radicals’ assumptions are modified, this can be seen in the second chapter of his essay: Utilitarianism. The Proportionality Doctrine is one of the most prominent concepts that emerge from his writing which suggests that actions are “right” when doing them leads to the highest amount of happiness as a lack of pain, and the reverse of this constitutes a “wrong” action. Here, happiness means pleasure which comes with the absence of pain, and unhappiness…
