1. Reflection Paper (3 pgs).Use a header on the left of the page (single-spaced) with your name and date. Provide a concise review (3 pgs. min. double-spaced with 12 point Times New Roman font and 1 inch margins) of the main themes of the film, style of presentation, and what you learned from this film that impacts your own view of race, racism, or other forms of discrimination in America. Additional topics for your reflection may include what you thought were strengths and weaknesses of the film, and if you think others should watch it or would benefit from watching it. Be specific with examples drawn from the film to illustrate your points.

Organizational Behavior- HRM 214

Questions:
I. Do you agree that decision-making can be overwhelming? (2.5 Marks)
II. Using information from the video, discuss how emotions impact our decisions. (2.5 Marks)
III. Using information from your textbook, discuss some common errors or biases that people make when making decisions? (2.5 Marks)
IV. What are some disadvantages to having a large number of choices when it comes to purchasing a product like a television? (2.5 Marks)

1. Diffraction- Use the laser pointer from the lab to measure the width of one of your hairs.To do this you need a hair taped into some sort of frame to hold it steady. You point the laser at it and take measurements of the diffraction pattern.Please photograph or draw your set–up(labeling all distances)as well as the pattern you are measuring and include all your calculations to get full credit. A good video explaining how to do this can be found here: 

2) Two Lens Systems- A converging lens with a focal length of 20.0 cm is located at the origin. A diverging lens with a focal length of 10.0 cm is located 15.0cm away to the right. You can use your kit to check your answers.

a) Light from a very, very far away object is incident from the left of the converging lens. Find the location and magnification of the image and determine whether it is real or virtual.

b) Light from a very, very far away object is incident from the right of the diverging lens. Find the location and magnification of the image and determine whether it is real or virtual.

3. Thin Films- You are designing a dielectric mirror that uses thin-film interference to provide extremely high reflectivity for a laser that has a wavelength of 785 nm. You have a bunch of diamond panels(n=2.4)you can use for the back part of your mirror. For the thin film, there are two materials you can choose from –Compound X, with refractive index 2.6, and Compound Y, with refractive index 2.2. Both compounds are outrageously expensive, and so you need to decide which to use to minimize the expense.

a) What is the thinnest film you can use to provide strong reflection from Compound X?

b)What is the thinnest film you can use to provide strong reflection from Compound Y?

c)Which compound should you choose and why?

1)Your client, Jane Smith, traveled to Las Vegas for a fun weekend with her friends from college. The first night she did well at the black jack table and won $2,000. Unfortunately, her luck turned and she lost $500 the second night and another $1,000 the third night of the trip. Your client has otherwise never gambled in her life, and thus has requested your help in the proper treatment of these gambling winnings and losses. What is the proper tax treatment? Are these winnings and losses included in taxable income?

2)Your client, Ricky Smith, works full-time as a computer programmer. In his spare time, Ricky makes custom wood cabinets and bookcases. Ricky started this hobby years ago when he and his wife had little furniture and storage in their home. Ricky’s skills and artistry improved through the years, and he now occasionally builds and sells pieces for family and friends. In fact, he now earns more revenue from his woodworking than his costs (e.g., costs of materials and supplies). He has come to you, his accountant, to find out whether the revenues from his hobby need to be reported on his Federal tax return. What is the proper tax treatment? Are the revenues and costs included in taxable income?

3)Your client, Pierre Latrell, recently received a tax penalty for failing to file his tax return. He was very upset to receive the penalty. However, he paid it and tells you that he is happy he will get a tax deduction for paying the penalty. Is this true? Can the penalty be deducted?

4)Your clients, Gary and Judy Olson, have 3 children. Their eldest child is currently enrolled in their first year of college. Their second child intends to enroll next year, and their youngest child expects to enroll at a university two years after. Gary and Judy are concerned about the rising costs of college tuition and the possibility of having 3 children enrolled in college at the same time. They are aware of the American Opportunity Credit (AOC) that helps taxpayers pay for the costs of higher education. Will Gary and Judy be able to claim the AOC? What requirements must be met?

How do you measure how a public corporation has delivered value for its shareholders? Please use the company that you have selected for your project as an example.

1) Based on what you have learned so far about the typical limiting nutrient in freshwater ecosystems (and, yes, Lake Okeechobee is freshwater), what nutrient would you generally expect to be the most likely limiting resource for Lake Okeechobee?

2) How do Crosby and Havens each describe the role of nutrient contamination, particularly phosphorus and nitrogen, in initiating freshwater cyanobacteria (aka, blue-green algae blooms) blooms in Lake Okeechobee? What other factors do either of these researchers cite as a potential “trigger” for the cyanobacteria blooms to form in Lake Okeechobee?

3) Based on your reading of both Crosby and Havens (as well as any materials from lecture or other sources), describe why and how severe freshwater cyanobacteria blooms frequently occur in normally brackish ecosystems like the St. Lucie River estuary (on the east coast) and Caloosahatchee River estuary (on the west coast). (Hint – freshwater cyanobacteria normally would not survive in a saltwater estuary environment.)

MUS 4 Introduction to Western Music

The weekly response assignments will be graded on the follow criteria:
1. Length: Your response to each question should be 1-2 paragraphs long. A paragraph should contain a minimum of three sentences.
2. Thoroughness: Your response needs to address all aspects of the question(s) included in the prompt.
3. Specificity: Avoid general statements. Give examples from the music, including time stamps where appropriate. It should be clear that you have done the assigned listening. (Simply quoting information found in the slides and lecture video is NOT sufficient for these response. Use that information as a starting point to deepen your engagement with the music. If your response is overly general, it will be assumed that you have not done
the necessary listening.)
4. Articulateness: Communicate your ideas as clearly as you can. Incorporate the proper terminology, covered in lecture and included in the class glossary, where needed.
