business halp once again
Hellen,
Hope all is going very well with you. I’m needing assistance with an Original no more than 250 words about how these Alpacas, “how the capital improvement you identified could help the business”.
The alpaca industry has a mixture of individuals ranging from the alpaca breeder who is interested in breeding and raising alpacas as a business venture to those individuals who are interested in raising alpacas strictly to produce fleece to be processed and sold to be made into end products. The industry even has many people who just want to own alpacas as pets and companions on small acreages. No matter which category that you fall into, it is important for you to understand the risks and opportunities in raising alpacas. Just like any business, there are risks and there are benefits.
Although alpacas should not be considered pure investments, in addition to added pleasure and peace of mind that they can bring, there are many business benefits in raising alpacas, For example, like other valuable assets, breeding stock held for more than a year qualifies for long-term capital gains treatment when sold. Unlike many assets, alpacas are 100% insurable.
Alpacas are not inexpensive, ranging from $10,000 to $40,000 for breeding females and $5,000 to $35,000 for high quality males. High quality proven males with exceptional offspring have sold in excess of $200,000. In many cases, financing your alpaca purchase can be done right on the farm as many alpaca breeders offer financing.
Alpacas are depreciable over a maximum of five years, giving farm and ranch owners immediate tax savings while their herd is growing. Also, alpaca purchases can qualify for more rapid depreciation under Section 179 of the I.R.C. As you raise your alpacas, most related expenses (ie., feed, vet care, supplies, farm equipment, computers, plus travel, showing and advertising costs, etc.) are deductible. In many states, those involved in farming can receive a significant reduction in their real estate taxes. Be sure to consult your tax advisor to learn how these tax rules can help you.

Normalcy and the New Deal |
Background: When the First World War ended, Americans welcomed what they hoped would be a “return to normalcy.” The decades that followed, however, are ones which would rarely be described as normal in comparison to what came before or after. During these decades, a struggle ensued within the American nation regarding how best to define the nation’s essential character, as groups like the revived Ku Klux Klan fought a rearguard action to define nationhood solely in terms of white skin and Protestant religion against secularists, Catholics, flappers, “New Negroes,” and others who challenged the traditional order. Immediately thereafter, the New Deal implemented in response to the Great Depression revolutionized the role of the federal government in lives of the American people, in ways that many Americans believed violated the basic tenets of the Constitution—and others believed were not radical enough. Taken together, the decades from 1920 to 1940 may have transformed the American nation more than any other comparable time period.

assignment 3 cultural activity report 2
Due Week 10 and worth 100 points
As a way of experiencing the Humanities beyond your classroom, computer, and textbook, you are asked to do a certain type of “cultural activity” that fits well with our course and then report on your experience. Your instructor will require you to propose an activity and get instructor approval before you do it and report on it (students should look for any instructions in that respect). Every effort should be made to ensure that this is a hands-on experience (not a virtual one), that this activity fits the HUM 112 class well, and that the activity is of sufficient quality for this university course. The two (2) key types of activities are a museum visit or a performance. Note: This must not be a report on the same activity (and certainly not the same report) as done for another class, like HUM 111. For instance, one might go to the same museum as done for HUM 111, but this HUM 112 report will focus on entirely different works and displays.
- Visit a museum or gallery exhibition or attend a theater, dance, or musical performance before the end of Week 10. The activity (museum or performance) should have content that fits our course well. Have fun doing this.
- Write a two to three (2-3) page report (500-750 words) that describes your experience.
-
- Clearly identify the event location, date attended, the attendees, and your initial reaction upon arriving at the event.
- Provide specific information and a description of at least two (2) pieces.
- Provide a summary of the event and describe your overall reaction after attending the event.
- Use at least the class text as a reference (additional sources are fine, not necessary unless required by your content). Your report should include connections you make between things observed in your activity and things learned in the course and text.
Note: Submit your cultural activity choice to the instructor for approval before the end of Week 5 (earlier is even better). Look for guidance from the instructor for how or where to make your proposal. You may also seek advice from your instructor (provide your town / state or zip code) for a good activity in your general area.
Visiting a Museum
- It makes sense to approach a museum the way a seasoned traveler approaches visiting a city for the first time. Find out what is available to see. In the museum, find out what sort of exhibitions are currently housed in the museum and start with the exhibits that interest you.
- If there is a travelling exhibition, it’s always a good idea to see it while you have the chance. Then, if you have time, you can look at other things in the museum.
- Every effort should be made ahead of time to identify a museum that has items and works one can easily connect to our HUM 112 class and book. Since HUM 112 covers from 1600 AD to the present, it makes more sense to focus on items from this time frame. In general, museums with fine arts work better than history museums.
- Any questions about whether a museum-visit activity fits the course and assignment well enough will be decided by the instructor when the student seeks approval for the activity. Any alternative activity outside the normal ones listed here, such as for those limited by disability or distance, will be determined by the instructor. Normally, we do not expect students to travel over an hour to get to an approved activity.
- Make notes as you go through the museum and accept any handouts or pamphlets that the museum staff gives you. While you should not quote anything from the printed material when you do your report, the handouts may help to refresh your memory later.
- The quality of your experience is not measured by the amount of time you spend in the galleries or the number of works of art that you actually see. The most rewarding experiences can come from finding two or three (2 or 3) pieces of art or exhibits which intrigue you and then considering those works in leisurely contemplation. Most museums have benches where you can sit and study a particular piece.
- If you are having a difficult time deciding which pieces to write about, ask yourself these questions: (1) If the museum you are visiting suddenly caught fire, which two (2) pieces of art or exhibits would you most want to see saved from the fire? (2) Why would you choose those two (2) particular pieces?
Attending a Performance
- Check your local colleges to see if there are any free or low-cost performances or student recitals. Student performances are generally of almost the same quality as professional performances, but typically cost much less. However, performances of high school level or lower will not meet this requirement.
- Try to do a quality performance that fits the class subject matter well. Sorry—but this is not for pop music or rock music, rap, country music, gospel music, comedy routines, your kid’s dance recital, your international friend’s wedding, high school plays, renaissance fairs, etc. Instead, think of college level or professional recitals, string quartets, symphony orchestras, opera, jazz, some stage dramas, etc.
- Any questions about whether a performance activity fits the course and assignment well enough will be decided by the instructor when the student seeks approval for an activity. Any alternative activity outside the normal ones listed here, such as for those limited by disability or distance, will be determined by the instructor. Normally, we do not expect students to travel over an hour to get to an approved activity.
- Unlike visiting a museum, where you can wear almost anything, people attending performances are often expected to “dress up” a bit.
- Take a pen or pencil with you and accept the program you are offered by the usher; you will probably want to take notes on it during or after the performance.
- Turn off your cell phone before entering the auditorium. Do not use your phone to record the music or to take pictures or videos. To play it safe, turn the phone off.
- Most long musical performances have at least one (1) intermission. If the lights start blinking, it is the sign that the performance is about to begin.
- Look for very specific things (such as a particular piece of music or the way certain instruments sounded at a specific time) which tend to stand out as either enjoyable or not enjoyable. Be sure to take notes of the things which you find enjoyable as well as the things which are not enjoyable.
Note: If a student is unable to attend a cultural event in person due to circumstances beyond the student’s control, then the instructor will recommend an alternate event / activity for the student to “attend” online. The “virtual” event / activity is usually only for students who, due to their physical location, cannot possibly attend an event / activity in person; typically, these students are stationed overseas or have no means of transportation. Experience shows most museums and activities are modest in cost and manageable for students, and you will often see students from other universities there on similar course projects. If you are facing financial hardship, keep in mind that many museums have a free day each week and performance discounts are often available for students and veterans, among others. Feel free to ask your instructor to help with finding low-cost options. If you believe that you have a legitimate reason for attending a “virtual” activity, you must contact the instructor no later than Week 5 for your request to be considered.
Your assignment must follow these formatting requirements:
- Be typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides; citations and references must follow APA Style format. Check with your professor for any additional instructions. (Note: Students can find APA style materials located in the course shell for reference)
- Include a cover page containing the tile of the assignment, the student’s name, the professor’s name, the course title, and the date. The cover page and the reference page are not included in the required assignment page length.
The specific course learning outcomes associated with this assignment are:
- Explain the importance of situating a society’s cultural and artistic expressions within a historical context.
- Examine the influences of intellectual, religious, political, and socio-economic forces on social, cultural, and artistic expressions.
- Use technology and information resources to research issues in the study of world cultures.
- Write clearly and concisely about world cultures using proper writing mechanics

Trees occur in various venues in computer science: decision trees in algorithms, search trees, and so on. In linguistics, one encounters trees as well, typically as parse trees, which are essentially sentence diagrams, such as those you might have had to do in primary school, breaking a natural-language sentence into its components—clauses, subclauses, nouns, verbs, adverbs, adjectives, prepositions, and so on. What might be the significance of the depth and breadth of a parse tree relative to the sentence it represents? If you need to, look up parse tree and natural language processing on the Internet to see some examples.

stats 12
1. Think more about the probability of each event. For example, what is the chance that a person born in Israel would be born in or be from Bethlehem? What would the probability be that a person would be crucified in Israel given that he lived in that time period? Put numbers on each of the eight prophecy fulfillments. Some of the probabilities will be subjective, but put values that you feel make sense and write a short justification for the value you picked. For example, if one of the prophecies said that the Messiah would come from the house of Judah, you could say that the probability is 1/12, since there were 12 tribes. Do not put probabilities of 0 or 1. You can get closer than you might think—Google can tell you what the population of Israel was in the days or Christ, for example. The important thing is to write down your justification as to why you assigned the probabilities you did to each prophecy. 2. Choose one of the eight prophecies in Stoner’s research. Explain how he might have arrived at the probability he assigned. Do you think his estimated probability is too high(conservative) or too low? What probability would you assign and why? By the way, here’s a reference table that shows Stoner’s probabilities. http://www.goodnewsdispatch.org/math.html 3. Given the new probabilities you associated with each prophecy, what is the probability that all eight happened in sequence? Hint: What’s the probability that you flip a coin and it comes up tails? 50%. What if you flip the coin twice and it comes up tails both times? 1/2*1/2 = 25%. What if three times? 1/2*1/2*1/2 = 1/8. What if four? Five? Now think about the probability of just two prophecies coming to pass at the same time. What would the probability be? What about three prophecies? Eight? Show your work. Don’t use ½ in your answer! Make sure that you use the probabilities that you came up with in question 1. 4. Reflecion Question: Do you think it is possible that someone other than Jesus could have fulfilled the prophecies of the Bible? Why do some religious groups claim to believe the Bible, but reject Jesus as the Messiah? The verse references are as follows: Dan. 9:26c Killed before the destruction of the temple Matthew 27:50-51 Zech. 9:9f Presented to Jerusalem riding on a donkey Matthew 21:6-9 Zech. 11:7 Ministry to “poor,” the believing remnant Matthew 9:35-36 Psa. 22:16 They pierced His hands and His feet John 19:34, 37; 20:27 Psa. 69:21 Given vinegar in thirst Matthew 27:34 Isa. 53:9a Buried in a rich man’s grave Matthew 27:57 Gen. 49:10 Called Shiloh or One Sent John 17:3 Ex. 12:46 Not a bone of the Lamb to be broken John 19:31-36

body mass index program
Body Mass Index Program
You are the nutritional coach for a local high school football team. You realize that some of the players are not up to par having returned from summer break. Realizing nutrition plays a key in a productive team, you decide to implement a Body Mass Index Program.
Design a modularized Body Mass Index (BMI) Program which will calculate the BMI of a team player. The formula to calculate the BMI is as follows:
BMI = Weight *703/Height^2
Your program design should contain the following:
- A method to obtain the weight of a player
- A method to obtain the height of a player
- A method to calculate the BMI of a player
- A method to display the calculated BMI
- A main method
You are to submit the following for the assignment:
- Submit your C++ source code that you generated from RAPTOR with comments added to each line or where necessary to explain program flow. Also submit the RAPTOR file (flowchart) of your working program.
- Make sure you run it to make sure it is error free and does what it is supposed to.
You can use the generate dropdown to create example C++ code based on your working logical flow chart to see what the code would look like.
Remember to follow the guidelines of good program design. Make sure to use meaningful variable names and include comments as needed

week 1 question 2 2
This is due Friday!!!
healthcare law 8
Falsification of records and billing are serious offenses and must be treated as such. As a health administrator, you will be called upon to monitor staff to be sure that records and billing are accurate.
In this scenario, consider that you are the assistant manager of operations for the Smith Home Health Care Services. Part of your job is to do impromptu visits where internal audits are completed as a measure to monitor the home health nurses and aides for the company.
You have been observing Barbara Smithers, who has been a home health aide since the company was established in 1995. You notice, before one of your monitoring visits, that Barbara’s billing totals seem higher than the average worker. When you observe her home services and compare them to the services rendered, there is a discrepancy. Going back in her service records, this has been a pattern for at least 4 years. You report this to your supervisor, Ron James. Mr. James meets with Barbara, who finally admits that she has been “padding” the billing for at least 10 years, at the demand of nursing supervisor, Donna Strickland. Mr. James asks you to sit in on a conference with Ms. Strickland and Ms. Smithers and contribute to questioning them and helping make a final decision.
- If accusations turn out to be true, what would be your recommendation in this case be to the Mr. James? What records do you need to review before the conference? Be sure to cite standards from the False Claims Act.
- How did the Service fail in its responsibility in monitoring Barbara? Should the facility also be held responsible?
- Could the Service have avoided this situation? Does 4 years of potential fraudulent billing seem a reasonable time period for no one to notice?
- What are the consequences of this behavior? Is there a criminal case here? What about civil liability? Are there any non-monetary consequences this Service should now be worried about?
3 page paper with specific instructions
teacher wants everything from the book. “Voices of Wisdom” a multicultural philosophy reader. Author is Gary E. Kessler. Anyway this can be done?
Three pages approximately; font 12 double spaced
The metaphysicians we have studied each have their own unique main tenet for explaining the answer to the question “What am I?”
For Descartes, it was: “I think therefore I am,” which entailed two distinct types of fundamental existence – that of body and that of mind – interacting with each other.
For Sartre, it was “existence precedes essence,” which entailed the dissolution of any human essentialities (like a non-spatiotemporal God or ‘mind’).
Provide an analysis of one of these tenets. Do not use any outside sources. DO use quotes from the actual text which you are analyzing. Explain it as though your reader has no acquaintance with the text or the philosopher who wrote it. Do not write in stream of consciousness. Follow the guidelines on Blackboard.
Write it as though you are trying to teach your reader how to understand the philosopher.

Apply the Three Most Significant Concepts After Reading the Article
Apply the three most important concepts you have learned and how these concepts can be applied from reading the article below: (I need this by 5pm today)
Article:
Conflict-Management Style
Competing/Controlling
is assertive and uncooperative – an individual pursues his
or her own concerns at the other person’s
expense. This is a power-oriented mode,
in which one uses whatever power seems appropriate to win one’s own position –
one’s ability to argue, one’s rank, econo
mic sanctions. Competing might mean
“standing up for your rights,” defending a
position which you believe is correct, or
simply trying to win.
Accommodating
is unassertive and cooperative – the opposite of competing. When
accommodating, an individual neglects hi
s or her own concerns to satisfy the
concerns of the other person; there is an
element of self-sacrifice in this mode.
Accommodating might take the form of
selfless generosity or charity, obeying
another person’s order when one would prefer
not to, or yielding to another’s point
of view.
Avoiding
is unassertive and uncooperative – the individual does not immediately
pursue his own concerns or those of the ot
her person. He or she does not address
the conflict. Avoiding might take the form
of diplomatically sidestepping an issue,
postponing an issue until a better time, or
simply withdrawing from a threatening
situation.
Collaborating
is both assertive and cooperative – the opposite of avoiding.
Collaborating involves an attempt to work
with the other person to find some
solution which fully satisfies the concerns
of both persons. It means digging into
an issue to identify the underlying concerns of the two individuals and to find an
alternative which meets both
sets of concerns. Collabor
ating between two persons
might take the form of exploring a di
sagreement to learn from each other’s
insights, concluding to resolve some c
ondition which would otherwise have them
competing for resources, or confronting and trying to find a creative solution to an
interpersonal problem.
Compromising
is intermediate in both asser
tiveness and cooperativeness. The
object is to find some expedient, mutua
lly acceptable solution which partially
satisfies both parties. It falls on
a middle ground between competing an
accommodating. Compromising gives up
more than competing but less than
accommodating. Likewise, it
addresses an issue more di
rectly than avoiding, but
doesn’t explore it in as much depth as
collaborating. Compromising might mean
splitting the difference, exchanging conce
ssions, or seeking a quick middle-ground
position
