Analysis Paralysis: What It Is and How to Avoid It
What Exactly is “Analysis Paralysis?”
But Why Do We Tend to Overthink Decisions?
How to Overcome Analysis Paralysis
1. Prioritize Your Decisions
2. Determine the Goal for Making Each Decision
3. Break Decisions into Smaller Steps
4. Forget Perfection
5. Put (Healthy) Pressure On Yourself or Your Team
TL:DR
Content: Sometimes, picking a “good-enough” decision is the best decision. Every decision you make will have its downsides. Don’t let this fact keep you from moving forward. 5. Put (Healthy) Pressure On Yourself or Your Team
If you’re one of the people who work better under pressure, enforce a deadline by which you must make the decision. If your team is involved, schedule a final meeting to discuss the issue. Make it clear that you’ll schedule no other sessions relating to it, and have at it. Sometimes a pressure-cooker is exactly what’s needed (just remember to bring snacks.) TL: DR
Analysis paralysis manifests itself in the inability to make a decision due to overthinking the available alternatives, possibilities and data.

Analysis paralysis manifests itself in the inability to make a decision due to overthinking the available alternatives, possibilities and data. It’s one of the main causes for project delays, exhausting project planning sessions, the gathering of unnecessary data, and slow movement between production stages. To avoid analysis paralysis, differentiate decisions by importance, break them into smaller steps, and put a healthy amount of pressure on yourself and your team to make a decision.

It has been noticed that smoking reduces the skin elasticity including the elasticity of the eyelids especially lower eyelids. Loss of elasticity will eventually cause the change in canthal tilt with time. So better is to avoid smoking to maintain periorbital tilt as normal. Wearing sunglasses or sunscreen is really helpful as we know that sun rays also damage the skin elasticity which also results in the softness of the skin tissues.

Wearing sunglasses or sunscreen is really helpful as we know that sun rays also damage the skin elasticity which also results in the softness of the skin tissues. Which causes difficulty in canthal tilt maintenance. Using the creams promotes the production of elastic fibers of collagen i.e a protein that maintains the elasticity. Using the creams reduces the effect of sun rays which can protect the skin and elastic tissues. Surgically the popular method that has been used for a time period is blepharoplasty of the upper and lower eyelids. During these cosmetic plastic surgeries, the consultant i.e dermatologist commonly corrects the canthal tilt at the angle of about 5 to 9 depending upon the structure of the face and choice of the persons.

HIPAA Policies and Procedures
Over the past few years, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Office for Civil Rights (OCR) has issued extensive guidance on HIPAA compliance and social media. Numerous policies and standards have been broadly distributed that outline exactly how healthcare professionals can ensure that their practice is HIPAA compliant. One of the most effective ways to protect your practice against HIPAA violations is to have policies and procedures in place to address each of the HIPAA regulatory standards. These policies and procedures should be unique to the needs of your practice–which is why HIPAA policy binders often aren’t enough. Policies and procedures should be documented and updated year after year to account for changes to the scope, size, or operations of your business. It’s essential that staff members are trained on these policies and procedures as well HIPAA standards in order to protect your practice from liability in the event of a breach. Social media and marketing policies are key factors to document in your own practice. By standardizing the way that marketing and social media efforts are maintained, you ensure that no sensitive health information will be improperly disclosed on the web. HIPAA social media guidelines are vital for ensuring that PHI remains protected, avoiding potential fines. Find out more about how a total HIPAA solution can give you the policies, procedures, employee training, and everything else required under the law to make your practice compliant!

Content: instead, they often focus on things that increase emotional activation. Behaviors are typically related to avoiding reminders of the loss and/or escaping from the painful reality. A bereaved person may try to feel close to the person who died through sensory stimulation and day dreaming about being with them – looking at pictures, listening to their voice, smelling their clothes, trying to recall what it was like to be together. Bereaved people are often inclined to avoid places, people or activities that hold reminders of the person who died. These behaviors are problematic when they become the only way of managing painful emotions. Regular routines including adequate sleep, nourishing meals, adequate exercise and social contacts may be disrupted, making emotions more difficult to manage.

Given that financial institutions play such a pivotal role in the world of financial crime, it is important that they are properly trained on how to identify and handle money laundering. Almost every bank employee receives training in anti-money laundering, and all of them are legally required to report any suspicious activity. Additionally, new anti-money laundering software increasingly used to help detect potential criminal activity that bank employees may not notice. Financial Institutions’ Reactions to Anti-Money Laundering
Although financial institutions are obliged to follow anti-money laundering regulations, this does not necessarily mean that they agree with them. Recently, many banks have become vocal about their dislike of anti-money laundering policies and their belief that these policies are both costly and ineffective. Every year in Europe and America alone, millions of dollars are used in an attempt to regulate and stop money laundering. But many are starting to believe that the anti-money laundering systems currently in place are largely ineffective and that the amount of money we spend on them is not worth their questionable accomplishments. Anti-Money Laundering and UNODC
In addition to the FATF, the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime also proactively tries to identify and stop money laundering. This office has an informative website that provides facts and details about money laundering, as well as how it can be spotted and prevented. The UN Office on Drugs and Crime also provides software that can be used to help prevent financial crime, collect data, and perform analysis.

Cryptocurrency Regulations in the United States
Cryptocurrencies: Not considered legal tender
Cryptocurrency exchanges: Legal, regulation varies by state
While it is difficult to find a consistent legal approach at state level, the US continues to make progress in developing federal-level cryptocurrency legislation. The Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) does not consider cryptocurrencies to be legal tender but considers cryptocurrency exchanges to be money transmitters on the basis that cryptocurrency tokens are “other value that substitutes for currency.” The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) does not consider cryptocurrency to be legal tender but defines it as “a digital representation of value that functions as a medium of exchange, a unit of account, and/or a store of value” and has issued tax guidance accordingly. Cryptocurrency Exchange Regulations
Cryptocurrency exchanges are legal in the United States and fall under the regulatory scope of the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA). In practice, this means that cryptocurrency exchange service providers must obtain the requisite license from FINCEN, implement an AML/CFT and Sanctions program, maintain appropriate records, and submit reports to the authorities. Meanwhile, the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has indicated that it considers cryptocurrencies to be securities, and applies securities laws to digital wallets comprehensively in an approach that will affect both exchanges and investors alike. By contrast, The Commodities Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) has adopted a friendlier, “do no harm” approach, recognising Bitcoin and Ethereum as commodities and allowing other virtual and cryptocurrency derivatives to trade publicly on exchanges that it regulates or supervises. In response to guidelines published by FATF in June 2019, FinCEN has also made clear that it expects crypto exchanges to comply with record-keeping requirements and the “Travel Rule” by sharing information about the originators and beneficiaries of cryptocurrency transactions.

If implemented, the regulation would also require exchanges to submit suspicious activity reports (SAR/CTR) for transactions (over the current threshold of $10,000) and require non-registered financial institutions or MSB wallet owners to identify themselves when sending $3,000 or more in a single or series of linked transactions. The Justice Department continues to coordinate with the SEC, CFTC, and other agencies over future cryptocurrency regulations to ensure effective consumer protection and more streamlined regulatory oversight. However, with the Covid-19 crisis hampering (yet adding urgency to) efforts to advance cryptocurrency regulation, the federal approach continues to be gradual. Despite setbacks, US lawmakers remain keen to bring cryptocurrencies under regulatory oversight in anticipation of their potential destabilizing effect on the globally dominant US dollar, and of the impact that private and centrally banked currencies might have.

Content: Where the Money Comes From
Most federal and state road funding across the nation comes from taxes on motor fuels as well as general sales taxes and other levies. Federal taxes go to the federal Highway Trust Fund (HTF), which supports highway and mass transit programs and projects, formula-based state grants and other programs identified by Congress. Funding for Texas’ State Highway Fund (SHF) — almost $21 billion for the state’s 2016-2017 biennium — comes from several sources, the largest by far being the federal government, which supplies just under half of Texas highway revenue ( Exhibit 2 ). The state’s motor fuels taxes and auto registration fees account for the bulk of state revenue. Exhibit 2: Sources of State Highway Fund Revenue Estimates for Fiscal 2016 and 2017

Prior to recent actions by the Texas Legislature, however, these traditional funding sources for transportation projects were being strained to the limit, and not only because of population and general economic growth. The recent oil and gas boom in shale formations, for instance, pushed thousands of heavy trucks on rural Texas roads not designed for such traffic. While the boom has subsided, the damage to overstressed roads remains.

The recent oil and gas boom in shale formations, for instance, pushed thousands of heavy trucks on rural Texas roads not designed for such traffic. While the boom has subsided, the damage to overstressed roads remains. Furthermore, the cost of road construction has risen much faster than the general inflation rate, meaning our transportation dollars simply don’t go as far. In 2014, TxDOT reported that construction costs had risen by 80 percent since 2002, compared to a cumulative general inflation rate of about 32 percent. Finally, the significant increase in automotive fuel efficiency in recent years, prompted by new technologies and stiffer federal standards, has had positive effects on individual wallets but negative ones on motor fuels taxes. Texas and U.S. motor fuels taxes are based on volume — so many cents per gallon. When fuel efficiency increases, the associated tax revenues decline.

New Money for Texas Roads
Content: In fiscal 2013, according to the Tax Foundation, state-level gas taxes, tolls and license fees produced enough revenue to cover only 41.4 percent of state spending on roads. At the federal level, the Congressional Budget Office has estimated the Highway Trust Fund may be insolvent as soon as 2021, while the National Surface Transportation Infrastructure Financing Commission projects a cumulative, nationwide highway investment funding shortfall of $2.3 trillion through 2035. Other States Look for Money
Many states have recognized that existing motor fuels taxes can’t fully support rising needs and costs. In its 2016 testimony before the Texas House, TTI noted that 26 states were funding road construction projects with revenue bonds; 24 states were using general obligation bonds; and 33 had employed public-private partnerships. In addition, many states have financed projects with tools such as tax increment financing or transportation reinvestment zones, both of which use property tax growth from a specific geographic zone to pay for improvements within it. According to the National Conference of State Legislatures (NCSL), 31 states have raised their motor fuels tax rates since 2013, including four in 2019. But fuel tax hikes were rejected in Massachusetts in 2014 and Missouri in 2018, for instance. A 2019 University of Texas/ Texas Tribune poll found that 72 percent of Texas voters wouldn’t support a similar tax increase.

Created in 1933, he AAA paid farmers for not planting crops in order to reduce surpluses, increase demand for seven major farm commodities, and raise prices. Farm income rose, but many tenants and share-croppers were pushed into the ranks of the unemployed. In 1936 the Supreme Court voided the AAA. CIVILIAN CONSERVATION CORPS
(Relief)
Created in 1933, the CCC took unmarried men aged 18-25 from relief rolls and sent them into the woods and fields to plant trees, build parks, roads, and fight soil erosion on federal lands. Young men sent their $30 a month home to their families and left a legacy of outdoor recreation areas (including the Blue Ridge Parkway). The CCC provided jobs for 2.5 million young men during its ten years.

Clover measures three basic types of coverage analysis: Statement
Statement coverage measures whether each statement is executed. Branch
Branch coverage (sometimes called Decision Coverage) measures which possible branches in flow control structures are followed. Clover does this by recording if the boolean expression in the control structure evaluated to both true and false during execution. In Groovy code, Clover also treats Elvis expressions (a :? b), safe method calls (a?.b ()), safe property calls (a?.b) and safe attribute calls (a?.@b) as branches. Method
Method coverage measures if a method was entered at all during execution. Clover uses these measurements to produce a Total Coverage Percentage for each class, file, package and for the project as a whole. The Total Coverage Percentage allows entities to be ranked in reports. The Total Coverage Percentage (TPC) is calculated as follows:

Content: Who Has the Power? - Congress Vs. President
Who Holds the Power?- The President
Over the past hundreds of years since the Constitution of the United States was implemented, the power of the executive branch has grown. Today the presidency has morphisized into the focal point of American government and politics. The president's constitutional powers along with the expansion of executive agencies-the cabinet, the executive office and the White House staff- has allowed the president to gain more powers. Furthermore, the ability of the president to somewhat control the legislative agenda confirms that the presidency may have evolved to dominate the policy making, an imperial presidency. Even though the system of checks and balances was created to keep one branch of government from having more power than the other, its success can be questioned. The president is checked by Congress on many levels, however the powers of the president are still phenomenal. Congress's job is to make the laws, but the president may choose to veto the legislation, therefore keeping it from becoming law. Even though Congress can overrule the veto with a super majority 2/3 vote, this is highly unlikely.

Content: Mentoring from Established Leaders
A lack of experience can be remedied through close mentoring with veteran leaders. This allows emerging leaders to draw on the experience of those who have gone before, enabling them to develop the level of focus and wisdom needed to lead effectively. Encourage Self-Reflection
As a company mentors future leaders, it is important to encourage them to focus on their own personal growth rather than compare their results to those of others. Providing them time to reflect on their day and consider how they might improve their own strengths can help them supersede themselves rather than attempt to compete with others. Focus on Strengths
The reality of the situation is everyone has strengths and weaknesses. Emerging leaders may be well aware of their shortcomings, and it’s important to help them understand how to use their strengths as well as those of others to cope with their weaker facets. By helping them acknowledge the aptitudes they bring to the table, businesses can help their emerging leaders develop into the competent decision-makers they’ll need to be in the future. Managing Strengths and Weaknesses of Emerging Leaders
The main takeaway, then, is that while the fast-pace of modern corporate settings can lead to some challenges for emerging leaders, those issues can be overcome through competent mentoring and a focus on applying their strengths.

Hi econnor, This site has many people who are more qualified to answer your query than I am. I am from Australia and I assume you are situated in USA. Our health systems are a little different but our health problems are exactly the same. Normally WBC range should be between 4 to 11 and platelets 150 to 400. I have 3 different solid cancers as well as Chronic Lymphocytic Leukaemia (CLL) so my WBC count is a bit higher at 150 and my Platelets range between 150 to 200. I have a number of different medical professionals on my team looking after me and whilst concerned about the high WBC they are quite happy with my situation and general health and have me on watch & wait and monitor progress every 3 months. A high WBC should be thoroughly investigated especially when it has been determined that you haven't got any signs of infection.

I suggest that you get a second opinion, consider seeing a Hematologist as they specialise in problems with our blood which is what you appear to have. I was diagnosed with CLL in 2016 when my WBC count was similar to what you now have but don't take this as suggesting you could have CLL, leave this to the medical professionals.

It paved the way in the advancement of infrastructure and machinery, helping the colonized countries progress. As a result, there was improvement in the standard of living while literacy rate increased exponentially as educational institutes were established. Aside from that, resources were efficiently utilized for manufacturing and trade, improving economies around the world. What’s more, there was a significant increase in competition between local and international markets. 4. It resulted in the exchange of traditions, cultural ideologies and customs. With America bringing influence to other nations, cultural ideas, language, food, religion and other things are exchanged. This led to nations broadening their horizons.

Content: Exchange of traditions and cultures is a good thing, but it should come naturally, not forced. Unfortunately, there were countries that suffered this kind of discrimination as they were forced to adapt to foreign ideas and thoughts despite their protests. What’s worse is that many people from the colonies were shipped and used without them knowing or agreeing, especially in Africa. 3. It causes exploitation. Citizens of the colonies who did not accept the beliefs of the superpowers of the colonizers can be exploited and punished for doing so. Aside from that, the colonies’ wealth and natural resources were exploited as well. 4. It requires a considerable amount of money to defend more than one nation. American Imperialism is still present in several countries up to this day.

16 Major Pros and Cons of Banning Books in Schools
Aug 21, 2019
Aug 25, 2019 by Editor in Chief
Banning books is one of the most common forms of censorship that exists in the world today. Banned Books Week began in 1982 to highlight the issues that surround this issue. Since the start of this event, there have been over 11,000 different titles challenged. The vast majority of the reading materials that receive challenges come from parents who disagree with a title’s inclusion on a curriculum list. Public libraries, universities, K-12 schools, and businesses all over the country see attempts to ban books frequently. The National Coalition Against Censorship reports that there is at least one attempt per week to create censorship over a specific title. The subject matter that gets targeted with the banning process ranges from classics to contemporary best-sellers. You’ll even find biographical non-fiction and fairy tales included on these lists. Most challenges never result in a ban because students, families, teachers, and librarians take a stand against the censorship. When books do receive a ban, it is usually because there are racial themes involved, an alternative lifestyle portrayed, or violence and sex that makes people uncomfortable.

List of the Pros of Banning Books
1. Parents should have the right to what materials their children can read. Parents are the final line of defense when it comes to protecting their children from inappropriate material for their age group. A book with an adult topic may be entirely enjoyable when people of the correct age have a chance to read and discuss the narrative. That content may not be well-suited to a child’s audience.

A book with an adult topic may be entirely enjoyable when people of the correct age have a chance to read and discuss the narrative. That content may not be well-suited to a child’s audience. Waiting until a child is mature enough to understand what vulgar, obscene language, and explicit sexual content is often necessary to promote healthy development. If this material is available in public or school libraries, then parents might not even know that their kids were exposed to this material. Other students might still talk about the book, but those discussions are very different than applying the narrative in a real-world way. 2. There might be inappropriate content for certain families.

There might be inappropriate content for certain families. 40% of the most challenged books in 2017 contained explicit violence. That is the same percentage that also contained material from the LGBTQIA+ community. 30% of the books were sexually explicit with their descriptions. When students receive exposure to graphic materials, then there can be adverse psychological effects that occur afterward. This issue may lead to more casual sexual partners, having sexual contact at an earlier age, and sensitivity issues.

Proponents of banning books say that their goal isn’t to shelter a child from specific content. It is a matter of guiding them toward what is healthy for them to encounter. 3. Banning books from one forum doesn’t eliminate the ability to access content.

Banning books from one forum doesn’t eliminate the ability to access content. Banning books in the past was an effective way to keep unwanted materials out of someone’s hands because there were very few communications tools available to society. The world is a very different place in 2019. If parents want their public library to ban a book, then it could be made available online for reading. There are still places to purchase the book as well. No one is preventing them from being written or sold.

Parents want the chance to speak with their kids about subject matters that make many people uncomfortable instead of letting an author shape the narrative with a personal opinion. Reading Steinbeck’s Of Mice and Men is an excellent example of this potential advantage of banning books.

Reading Steinbeck’s Of Mice and Men is an excellent example of this potential advantage of banning books. Dealing with topics like murder and euthanasia may go beyond the understanding of some young children. Other books deal with suicide, peer pressure, and death on a large scale. Approving books for a school curriculum without parental guidance may shape the perspective of a child without having a chance to form their own opinion. Stopping access at the community level can help kids to get both sides of the conversation. 5.

Content: Proponents of banning books say that the act of censorship isn’t a process that is supposed to ban all speech. Hate speech isn’t created equal. The words that some people use to create feelings of personal superiority are damaging. Even when a narrative tries to cloak this issue in righteousness, the potential adverse impact of student exposure could create numerous problems for schools, families, and students. Banning the book before it can inspire hate allows us to reduce the impact of this language in our society. You can also reduce the amount of conflict that occurs between two people or parties. Limiting information access doesn’t stop someone from producing work. It allows people who don’t want to receive exposure to a specific concept to have an easier way to avoid it. 7. The rights of the creator are still protected even if books are banned.

No one is stopping an author from writing a book that some people might find to be offensive. Even if the response to a narrative is generally negative, there is always an opportunity to create something else. Although critics can make a valid argument about the fact that the act of banning can impact the income of the writer, there are still specific markets where the works may be found to be acceptable.

Content: The idea of the First Amendment is pretty simple: if you don’t like something, then you don’t need to read the book in the first place. Prohibiting the expression of an idea because society finds it to be disagreeable or offensive goes against the wish of the Founding Father. A single disagreement from an individual or a widespread dispute shouldn’t stop others from getting the opportunity to read a book that intrigues them. The role of banning should stay at the family level. If you as a parent or guardian feel like the material is inappropriate, then it is up to you to look for an alternative solution. It’s not the children who typically need safeguarding either; it’s the books that receive targeting. 2. It creates a false sense of reality for children.

Content: The reality of language, sex, and violence in literature is that most people receive exposure to these elements much earlier in life than a junior-level lit class in high school. Kids learn to swear much earlier in life – and probably know all of the “bad” words even if you don’t realize it. Violence in literature is not limited to stories like The Hunger Games. Even the Harry Potter series has moments of violence in it, despite the fact that many people celebrate the stories. When there is an action taken to ban books, then this behavior is a reflection of having a closed mind. It speaks to the idea that there is one perspective that holds truth in our world. If your opinion falls outside of that thought, then too bad – your literature is going to be withheld from everyone, like it or not. 3. Books are some of our best teachers. Books allow us to put the stories of life into their proper context.

It can even be a way to engage new ways to think. The latter issue is usually why people want to bank books in the first place. People often fear the unknown, which means reading something that feels uncomfortable is a threat which needs to be stopped.

There’s a reason why the titles like Brave New World or To Kill a Mockingbird tend to be the ones that instructors choose for their classes repetitively. Instead of constantly challenging these titles by trying to ban them, it might be more useful to have a sit, grab a cocktail, and read the book one one’s own before trying to stop others. 4. Many banned books become celebrated classics of literature.

Many banned books become celebrated classics of literature. Almost all of the classics that we read in various literature classes say something that the human race needs to hear. Even the Library of Congress has put together lists of titles that have helped to shape our heritage, each one offering something unique with extraordinary merit. These stories are already designed to confront the various issues of their time, including moral, social, and political problems. Trying to ban the book will not prevent the idea from being unleashed on the rest of the culture. If anything, the act of banning a book creates more of an urge in the general public to read the narrative instead of ignoring it.

A Final Thought on the Pros and Cons of Freedom of Speech
Content: As with all modern democracies, even the United States places limits on this freedom. There are specific limits placed on this principle that dictate what people can or cannot say legally. The First Amendment does not specifically say what is or is not protected, but the Supreme Court has ruled that there are some forms which are not allowed. Here are the freedom of speech pros and cons to consider with this element as part of a democratic society. List of the Pros of Freedom of Speech
1. Freedom of speech protects each of us from the influence of special interests. When people have power, then they do whatever they can to retain it for as long as possible. That may include a change in the government’s constitution, a shift in a company’s Board of Directors, or the suppression of a minority group that threatens the way of life for the people involved. Having the freedom of speech reduces this power because it allows individuals to express criticism of those who are in power. There is no fear of losing personal freedom with this right because your opinion contributes to the overall conversation.

When you have the freedom of speech, then the government cannot compel your actions in such a way that you are required to speak a specific message. You stay in control of what you say and how those words are expressed to the rest of society. Even if the government attempts to alter your words to their advantage, you will always have the opportunity to address the situation and correct the “mistakes” that others create in your work.

Freedom of speech promotes the free exchange of ideas. When a society operates in an area where free speech is given to all, then there is a more significant exchange of ideas that occur. It becomes almost impossible for those who are in power to suppress truths that they may not want to let out in the open. This process allows for progress to occur because people can learn from the experiences and perspectives of one another without worrying about the dogma of a “Big Brother” element in society, either corporate or government-based.

Content: It is tricky to find the line which exists when you must protect information or protect others. Having this right in society allows us to at least have that conversation. 5. Freedom of speech prevents the requirement to behave specific ways. Some people today might say that any speech which someone finds offensive should be banned. Imagine then that someone became offended by the mention of same-gender marriage – or the opposite, that they were offended by the mention of opposite-gender marriage. Freedom of speech allows people to make up their minds about what to share with others. Some people might be brazen with their approach, but that also means they might not have as many friends because of their attitude. 6. Freedom of speech advances knowledge for a society.

A Final Thought on the Pros and Cons of Freedom of Speech
Content: When you have a chance to ask questions or share perspectives, then it creates more learning opportunities in society. This right makes it easier for all individuals to make a new discovery, suggest ideas, or exchange information freely without worrying about potential political consequences. Even if some of the ideas do not work after you get to try them, the process of testing contributes to the advancement of society as well. Thomas Edison famously made 1,000 unsuccessful attempts at the invention of the light bulb – each idea was a new step toward success. 7. Freedom of speech allows for peaceful changes in society. Some people use their freedom of speech as a way to incite hatred or violence. Others use it as a way to create the potential for peaceful change. Providing facts to individuals while sharing your opinion can persuade them to consider your perspective, even if they do not agree with it at the time. When this is your top priority with this right, then you are less likely as an individual to use violence as a way to create change.

A Final Thought on the Pros and Cons of Freedom of Speech
Content: Although exposing people to hate speech is hurtful and creates fear in some individuals, it also creates a resiliency in the debate. Instead of making your voice louder when confronting these ideas, you are improving your argument. When this action occurs, the action of observation and counter-observation make it possible to create an outcome where progress toward the greater good occurs. When we lack tolerance for differing, uncomfortable opinions, then it weakens the rights that so many people take for granted when there is something that they want to say. List of the Cons of Freedom of Speech
1. Freedom of speech does not mean the freedom to have “all” speech. The concept behind the freedom of speech is that you should be able to express anything in a way that does not create legal consequences for you. Even if your opinion is unsavory, rude, or unpopular, this right gives you the option to express it. In the United States, there are four forms of speech which are not protected under the First Amendment. • You cannot make an authentic threat against another individual.

Content: List of the Cons of Group Decision Making
1. It takes more time to reach a decision when using this process. The group decision making process is less efficient from a timing perspective because there are multiple voices involved. Each person has the opportunity to contribute their perspectives and experiences to the greater conversation. That requires more time than what a single person would require because there is more coordination, discussion, and participation. Unless there is a leader who can facilitate this process effectively, it is easier for teams to get lost in the minutia of details instead of dealing with the overall situation. 2. It can make everyone think that they carry a leadership role in the organization. Every organization relies on the leadership team to make effective decisions for everyone working on the mission or vision of the company. When you incorporate a group decision making process, then each person on that team is given a sliver of that leadership role.

Although some individuals accept this responsibility in the form intended, many use this process as a way to expand their real or perceived power in the team environment. That can lead to reduced creativity because it discourages some team members to share their thoughts and opinions. 3. It can lead to a lower level of responsibility and accountability. When you put together a group to brainstorm a solution, everyone will be fast to except credit for a successful experience.

If there is a bad decision that comes from this process, then it is easier for the individual members to deny any personal responsibility for the outcomes that were achieved. Being in a group situation makes it a simpler process to blame others for poor results. 4. It can contribute to a process that is called “groupthink.” Although the goal of the group decision making process is to come up with several different opinions to consider, there can be obstacles in place to this outcome.

List of the Pros of Group Decision Making
List of the Cons of Group Decision Making
Content: If you put people together in a group situation, then that does not guarantee that you will have a successful collaboration experience. The benefits that are available through the group decision making process only calm when there is enough experience and expertise in the group to solve the problem. When people can only offer opinions instead of facts to the discussion, then the possibility of a poor outcome increases under this situation. The group must have the ability to recognize what the problems, obstacles, and solutions are to be effective when brainstorming a situation. 6. It can be a process that leads to polarization. There are times when a group decision may be inadequate for the solutions that are necessary for a problem that is under consideration. The individuals involved may move toward an extreme solution instead of taking a centrist approach. When this occurs, then the risks that the entire team will face in the future increase. Although there is the potential for massive rewards because of this process, it can also provide destructive elements to the culture of the workplace.

It creates a cost consideration that must come under evaluation. Because there is more time involved with the group decision making process, companies must make a salary investment in this structure that may cause their costs to rise. It requires time and money to find relevant information, arrange meetings, have discussions, and arrive at a consensus of relevance. If the budget is a significant factor in the choices that are being made each day, then an individual decision might be the better choice to pursue.

18 Big Pros and Cons of Education for Prisoners
List of the Pros of Educating Prisoners
List of the Cons of Educating Prisoners
Conclusion
Content: When people have a chance to see what is possible for their future, then hope can turn even the darkest night into something bright and productive. 8. Prisoner education creates an opportunity for apprenticeships and internships. Educational classes in prison don’t need to be 100% dedicated to textbooks and classroom learning. There are also vocational opportunities available with this approach. When an inmate can learn a practical skill while behind bars, then there are more opportunities to find work once they finish their sentence. Programs that include welding, plumbing, and electrical studies can all help people with a record either find employment or start a small business of their own. This option is attractive to prisoners because it allows them to work for some cash while they get to learn a skill that can take them somewhere afterward. List of the Cons of Educating Prisoners
1. Prisoners lack access to modern technology for their learning needs.

1. Prisoners lack access to modern technology for their learning needs. There are specific challenges that prison educational programs face when instituting a program. Only 14% of students enrolled in a prison program have the opportunity to access a restricted Internet presence. That figure also represents the number of people who are given the option to coordinate with a large-scale program. Giving prisoners access to online features could create untold dangers in some situations that place the safety of the general public at risk. Until there is a way to work around this issue, the effectiveness of an educational program will always be questioned.

List of Advantages of Citizen Journalism
List of Disadvantages of Citizen Journalism
Content: It addresses the gaps in mainstream media. The idea behind this form of journalism is that people without professional training are able to use modern technology tools and the internet to fact-check, augment or create media. This entails that anyone who has access to the web can start a blog or can report some events across the digital world. This is significant in a way that it addresses the gaps within mainstream media. 2. It empowers local communities. Citizen journalism enables individuals, who are previously excluded from essential information, to increasingly participate in disseminating information to advance their well-being. This journalistic innovation is said to help improve local economies, sharing substantial information to remote corners of the globe. With it, many ordinary people are now able to play a part in telling stories, including their own, that are usually understated by mainstream media. YouTube

1. It poses difficulties to the audience about what to believe. One big problem with this type of journalism is that it will be difficult for people to decide what to believe, unlike traditional journalism, where it is safe to assume the information disseminated is factual.

6 Advantages and Disadvantages of Amazon Prime Membership
Jan 14, 2017
Aug 4, 2016 by Editor in Chief
A lot of retailers have their own schemes focusing on profitability as well as customer retention. One of them is Amazon, known as the largest online retailer in the world today. Amazon is offering something similar to annual membership schemes which is referred to as Amazon Prime. This is considered a premium option for netizens and Internet shoppers alike as it can offer lots of benefits to its subscribers for only US$99 annually. However, subscription schemes could have some advantages and disadvantages. To determine if this option is indeed advantageous or not, the pros and cons of Amazon Prime Membership are presented here. List of Advantages of Amazon Prime Membership
1. Shipping of Marked Goods Is Free
Shopping online can sometimes be a hassle as it will require a few more orders on top of your main item to take advantage of free shipping. However, if you are an Amazon Prime member, there is no need to add these unnecessary items. Those that are marked as prime will be delivered within two shipping days for free.

List of Disadvantages of Amazon Prime Membership
1. Only Designed for Shopaholics
Shopping in as few as 12-15 times per year will not be ideal as it will not pay off every penny that you have invested on your membership fee. You might even better be spending for shipping on every package than subscribing to Amazon Prime. 2. Forced to Buy from Amazon
Even if you are not being forced to shop from their website, the fact that you have paid to enjoy the service will indeed encourage you to purchase from Amazon only. In fact, you might even be forced to make compromises for the quality as you will opt not to pay for shipping fee unlike other shops online. 3.

The fact that you will make orders for a US$3 product from Amazon because it can be delivered in as quickly as 2 days will be bad for the local economy. Membership to Amazon Prime should be perfect for shopaholics. However, there might be a set of plus and minus points awaiting to happen to its customers. Perhaps the pros and cons presented here will be reason enough to determine if this should be a valid option or not. YouTube

List of 19 Main Pros and Cons of Dictatorships
List of the Pros of Dictatorships
List of the Cons of Dictatorships
Conclusion of the Pros and Cons of Dictatorships
Content: 7. Dictators can help to provide stability in the government. When a government has a single person or group that leads each decision, then there is more stability available to the society because a transfer of power is no longer necessary. Over a dozen world leaders have been in charge for more than 25 years in their government, with a similar number holding down the fort for at least 15 years. When there is no longer a need to install new people into these roles, then long-term changes in society become possible because there is no longer a legislative emphasis on centrism. Although dictators who fall on the extreme end of the political spectrum can cause immense harm, there is also the potential for a lot of good things to happen. 8. Dictatorships feel relatable to the average person. Because a dictator or group comes to power through the charm of their personality, the leader (s) feels like a relatable person to the general public. That would be the type of individual which you could invite home for dinner one night because they feel like a friend.

They make it seem like their knowledge of your circumstances makes it possible to create a better life if given a chance. You might call it the “chicken in a pot” promise. We get that phrase from a political advertisement that supported Herbert Hoover in 1928 which was printed in The New York Times. “ Under higher tariff and lower taxation, America has stabilized output, employment, and dividend rates,” the advertisement says. This type of promise is one that you will often see dictators make as well.

Rob FitzGerald
Content: Consumer buying behavior is the study of how individuals and organizations select and use products and services. This primarily focuses on psychology, motivations, and behaviors, such as how people choose between brands, how they research and shop, and how marketing campaigns can be improved so brands can effectively influence them. Three factors can influence consumer buying behavior: personal, psychological, and social. Personal factors deal with an individual’s interests and opinions, which are affected by their demographics. Psychological factors are based on their perceptions and attitudes, including their ability to comprehend information and how they see their needs. Finally, social factors are made up of one’s peer groups, socioeconomic classes, and even social media influence. While each person has their own considerations for making purchases, everyone goes through what is known as the buying process. This process is constant, with consumers sitting at a particular stage at any given time. Need Recognition
This stage is where the consumers realize that they need something and that making a purchase will address the need.

Content: Government farmland preservation programs and many private land trusts work to ensure that we don’t destroy the resource that feeds us. They work to keep enough fertile land available for farming so we don’t risk becoming dependent on other nations to feed our growing population. They also provide a variety of other public benefits. This guide explores both the benefits of farms and the value of farmland preservation efforts. Farmland Preservation Anchors the Farm Economy
Farms do not stand alone. Each is an anchor of stability for other nearby farms. Each is a thread in a web of neighboring farms, farm businesses, and other human endeavors that support and rely upon each other. When one thread is lost, the negative consequences ripple through the community. When many threads are lost, there comes a point when the web fails—when farms and farm businesses no longer have the mutual support needed to keep the local farm economy viable.

Content: His neighbor worries about the disruptions the development will cause, and downsizes his operation. Having already struggled with declining revenues due to the loss of other farms, the local agriculture supply store closes. It lays off its employees, and they move their families elsewhere to find new jobs. Then a few farmers decide it’s not worth the longer drive to buy supplies, and they sell. The nearby processing plant loses business and is forced to lay off workers too. Other farmers in the area watch their options narrow and fear that others will also sell their land for development. They conclude that their farms will inevitably be lost, so they stop investing in new machinery and labor. Eventually, they leave their fields fallow in anticipation of selling for development.[3] The downward spiral of the local farm economy eventually becomes irreversible. Farmland preservation aims to prevent the downward spiral. It aims to secure enough farms as permanent anchors so that people can see that their local farm economy can weather the loss of a number of non-protected farms without capsizing.

Supports Our Economy
The economic impact of agriculture on Pennsylvania and the nation is enormous. The output of America’s farms accounts for $177 billion of the GDP; combined with agriculture-related industries, the total is nearly $1 trillion. [ 8] The reach of this impact is broad: farms play a critical role in the economic lives of their employees, customers, and communities. They provide a variety of direct and indirect economic benefits, especially when compared to the alternative types of land use currently threatening productive farmland.

Keeps Money in Local Communities
A growing number of farms—nearly 150,000 nationwide, according to the 2012 USDA census—offer food products to their local communities through farmers markets, CSA programs, farm stands, and other channels. [ 12] The shorter the distance between the farmer’s field and the customer’s plate, the less transportation and fewer intermediaries required. Therefore, a local food transaction benefits both the farmer and consumer: the farmer receives a greater percentage of the sale, while the consumer enjoys fresh food produced for its taste rather than its ability to endure weeks of transportation and storage. The money spent in the community stays in the community, circulating to other businesses that offer goods and services and create jobs. One study concluded that agricultural exports generate $1.70 of community income for every dollar of sales, while local sales can generate over $3.00.[13] Farmers markets, especially when located in a downtown area, can also have a spillover effect, boosting the sales of surrounding businesses. Pennsylvania is a national leader in direct-to-consumer sales, trailing only California and New York, and preserving farmland ensures the continued viability of local food suppliers in communities throughout the state. [ 14] Markets for locally produced food help sustain local economies, while enhancing opportunities for farmers to make a living and for consumers to buy fresh food directly from the people who produce it. Provides Tax Revenue; Requires Little Government Service
Only by considering both the local tax revenues generated by a land use and the local government expenditures necessitated by that land use can you identify the use’s overall impact on local government finances.

Only by considering both the local tax revenues generated by a land use and the local government expenditures necessitated by that land use can you identify the use’s overall impact on local government finances. Farms and other open lands unambiguously provide a net fiscal benefit. Owners of agricultural lands pay more in local taxes than government spends in support of those lands and the people who live and work on them. [ 15]
Although agricultural land generates less tax revenue per acre than residential, commercial, or industrial property, it requires fewer public services such as schooling, road maintenance, and policing. The difference means that non-agricultural lands receive more services and pay less in taxes than they could in the absence of agricultural land.

Title: Why student-led learning is important
Headings: Student-led
Student-led
Empowering classrooms with student-led learning
The power of student-led learning
Creating a student-led classroom
1. Rearrange the classroom
2. Develop self-awareness
3. Use individualised learning applications
4. Aim for conceptual understanding
5. Encourage reflection
Content: Student-led learning encourages greater autonomy and helps ease student transition from the classroom to life after school. It is also a pedagogical approach that is becoming more widely adopted in international education and will hopefully become the norm, not the exception. What’s more, when you look at its positive impact, the power of student-led learning should come as no surprise. It steps away from the outdated one-size-fits-all model and embraces the personalised learning ethos by helping students discover their own potential; encouraging learning through trial and error and reducing the negative connotations imbued with ‘mistakes’; developing independent and critical thinking and problem-solving skills; and increasing engagement in the classroom. Prioritising student agency undoubtedly breaks the mould of traditional education but it is crucial in providing pupils with a greater voice and empowering them to take a more active role in their education. Creating a student-led classroom
The benefits of student-led learning are clear. However, adopting this approach to learning faces many challenges, particularly in the context of international schools which are also required to navigate cultural differences and beliefs, varying academic levels, and diverse backgrounds.

Major Decisions-Miranda v Arizona
Comments
Content: Furthermore, the final verdict would also become a
championing effort for the Civil Rights Movement, as its coverage by the media was quite extensive and would become feted as a victory statement for citizen’s rights in the United States (See Also: Human Rights and Entitlements). Miranda v. Arizona deals with several aspects of provisions set forth by the United States Constitution and served to provide for an application of Constitutional law that would be more visible among the civilian populations of the country. The case of Miranda v. Arizona deals with a man named Ernesto Miranda that was arrested for rape and kidnapping charges and brought in for questioning and interrogation. After hours of interrogation, Miranda would finally sign a written confession that also affirmed that he was made fully aware of his legal rights and had waived them voluntarily. However, Miranda was never made aware of his rights to an attorney or his right to remain silent prior to being interrogated. Miranda’s defense motioned to have
his written confession to be inadmissible in the courts as evidence. This would be overruled by the State courts, which would lead to an appeal to the Supreme Court. The crux of the arguments for Miranda’s defense would lie in the fact that the law enforcement officials would have violated the accused’s Fifth Amendment and Sixth Amendment rights, as well as failure to comply with the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. The uproar over the Miranda v. Arizona the case is largely due to the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s and the fact that Amendments under the Bill of Rights of the Constitution were being violated only added to its fervor and publicity.

Arizona the case is largely due to the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s and the fact that Amendments under the Bill of Rights of the Constitution were being violated only added to its fervor and publicity. The Supreme Court would hear the Miranda v. Arizona case under Chief Justice Earl Warren, who eventually overruled the conviction and sentencing of Miranda by the Arizona State courts. Warren would resolve that the confession could not be considered admissible as evidence due to the fact that it was in violation of the Fifth and Sixth Amendments of the Constitution. The infringement of the Fifth Amendment would be in relation to the self-incrimination clause, while the violation of the Sixth Amendment was in respect to the right to an attorney. Due to the interrogation tactics and practices of the involved law enforcement officials
and the fact that Miranda was never made aware of his rights to remain silent and
to an attorney, the written confession assigned would be considered null due
to such confession being, therefore, coerced or unlawfully forced. Warren would conclude that any person in custody subject to an interrogation must be fully aware of his rights
prior to any such interrogation taking place.

Justice Blackmun remained as the justice selected to the Court’s opinion following the second argument, and on January 22, 1973, the Court issued its 7-2 decision. In it, the Court determined that Texas had violated Roe’s constitutional right to privacy. Drawing on the First, Fourth, Ninth, and Fourteenth Amendments, the Court said that the Constitution protects an individual’s “zones of privacy.” Citing earlier cases that ruled that contraception, marriage, and child rearing were activities included in these “zones of privacy,” the Court found that the zone was “broad enough to encompass a woman’s decision whether or not to terminate her pregnancy.” Because the Court determined that abortions were within a woman’s “zone of privacy,” it was therefore ruling that a woman had a fundamental right to the procedure. Although this right was fundamental, that did not mean that it could not be limited. The Court said that as a fundamental right, any limitations on abortion must meet the standards of strict scrutiny. This meant that there must have been “compelling state interest” in regulating abortions, and the legislation must have been narrowly tailored to meet this “compelling” state interest. The Court then assessed the state’s interests.

There are several federal laws that touch on social media privacy concerns, including The Communications Decency Act (CDA) and The Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). There have been many other efforts to enact federal legislation to better address social media protections, but no national comprehensive social media privacy laws exist yet; there is no U.S. equivalent to the E.U.

Content: Relationships Among Social Media Users
Much of the appeal of social media is being able to interact with other users. Users can share feelings, thoughts, and information in a highly-accessible real-time forum. However, it is this sharing of information that makes social media so ripe for an exploitation of privacy rights. There are state laws that criminalize "revenge porn," which is the online posting of sexually-explicit videos or photos, generally by a former lover, without the consent of the subject and with the intent to embarrass or humiliate them. Additionally, social media giants have shown concern about users who invade others' privacy on their platforms and have rules and procedures addressing unauthorized content. Twitter prohibits the posting or sharing of intimate photos or videos of someone that was produced or distributed without their consent. Facebook uses "photo-matching" technologies for photos that already have been identified as shared non-consensually. The company also uses a controversial program which involves users sending intimate photos to Facebook's safety department to prevent the pics from being uploaded to the site. Protection for Children on Social Media
COPPA is the governing law concerning the disclosure of online data for children under the age of 13. Sites that target children can't collect personal information about a child without first providing written notice of the site's disclosure practices and obtaining parental consent.
