    Background The American International Group, AIG, is a leading international insurance organization to more than 100 countries. AIG is also one of the leaders of life insurance and retirement services in the United States.

Many focused on AIG’s Financial Product Group because they had written credit default swaps and other derivatives that totaled $2.7 trillion” (Ferris, S., 2013). By 2008, the group had unrealized losses of more than $30 billion due to the subprime debt crisis. Many of AIG organizations were demanding the margin calls on derivatives and AIG do not have the cash to do so. So,…

    Over the past decade, the “too-big-to-fail policy” has caused a slow deterioration of the US financial system in many ways. This term was coined after the financial crisis of 2008, and is more formally known as the “problem in which regulators are reluctant to close down large financial institutions because doing so might precipitate a financial crisis (Mishkin p.218).” In this situation, the government issues guarantees of settlements of uninsured creditors to large financial institutions.

    With everything going on I forgot that still, no one said a word. The only people speaking were the people already in the OA. That morning, we were all separated into groups, and we were all assigned jobs. I didn’t know much about the jobs other groups were assigned, but mine was assigned to trail work. Within no time, we were off to work on our tasks. My group started off on one of the trails. Whenever we saw brush creeping into the trail, it was our job to remove it. It started off fairly…

    Daily we are introduced to situations where the ability to mentally rotate an object or an image comes to good use. For example, imagine you are playing a game of Tetris. As the object is rapidly moving down your computer screen you have to mentally rotate it in order to see where the piece would fit best.

    Clinical Reflection: Group Meeting I arrived thirty minutes earlier for the meeting scheduled at seven that evening, but the parking lot was almost full and teeming with activity. There were people talking, laughing, and some were loitering, wandering aimlessly before proceeding through a discreet door; ten minutes prior to the scheduled start. Hence, the scene reminded me more of an enthusiastic crowd being ushered in before the movie start or an eager bunch queueing up for the latest…

    I ended up having more B-mode statements than any other mode. The book says that, “[t]hose with more B-mode responses base their self-concept on group membership and institutional roles” (pg.136). It also says that if you give yourself more B-mode statements, then it is possible that C-mode is dominant while in the classroom. “C-mode responses see themselves as more independent and define themselves according to their individual actions and emotions rather than connections to others” (pg.136).…
