A. If you go to just about any company’s website you’ll find many references to corporate social responsibility, or CSR for short.
B. In fact, many companies have dedicate entire sections on they’re websites to CSR. They even publish CSR reports under names such as Giving Back, Sharing the Wealth, and Citizenship Report.
C. The reality, however, is corporate giving to charity are far less than it was twenty years ago.
D. In 1986 the average company donated 2.1% of it’s profits to charity.
E. Now the average company donates around .8% of it’s profits to charity.
F. Some of the most profitable and most well known companies in the technology sector gives less than .5% of its profits.
G. Some companies are extremely generous yet do not give much to local, communities.
H. For example Google gives roughly 8% of its profits to charity.
I. Yet almost none of this money goes to communities in cities near their corporate headquarters.

For each situation below determine the direction of the induced current in the loop (if there is one).
(a) A square loop is moving at a constant velocity to the right through a uniform magnetic fieldthat is directed into the page and which extends out of the picture to the left and right. In which direction is the induced current in the loop?
[ ] clockwise [ ] counter-clockwise [ ] there is no induced current Justify your answer (with words, pictures, or both):
(b) A circular loop is at rest in a magnetic field directed into the page. The magnetic field is increasing in magnitude. In which direction is the induced current in the loop?
[ ] clockwise [ ] counter-clockwise [ ] there is no induced current Justify your answer (with words, pictures, or both):
(c) A piece of wire is wrapped into a loop and placed in a uniform magnetic field that is directed into the page. You then pull on the ends of the wire so the area of the loop is decreasing. In which direction is the induced current in the loop?
[ ] clockwise [ ] counter-clockwise [ ] there is no induced current Justify your answer (with words, pictures, or both):
(d) A bar magnet is held near the center of a wire loop. The magnet is then pulled away from the loop. The north pole is always closest to the loop. In which direction is the induced current in the loop? (The direction as seen by the north pole of the magnet.)

Imagine you are tasked with designing a database that encompasses the Florida Tech Learning Management System (LMS) that you use on a daily basis. The following requirements hold:
What would be your initial design? Provide both a logical and physical approach. For your logical suggestion, provide an E-R model of how the system might look and then provide support that it will be efficient given the operations. For the physical design, provide an outline of strategies and infrastructure you would put into place to support the business requirements.

Choose an organization, preferably one that you work in, have worked in, or are familiar with. Throughout the semester, you will be wearing the hat of the Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) for that organization. You will be planning its Cybersecurity strategy, defining all assets that require safeguarding, and identifying all components and controls. You will propose a Cybersecurity Strategy for your organization, a plan for an effective, collaborative, organization-wide cybersecurity posture and defence.
Your Strategy should identify crosscutting principles and apply these principles across IT Strategy goals. Within those goals, the Cybersecurity Strategy should identify the main objectives, with associated major tasks and activities. The Cybersecurity Strategy should also establish the guiding principles and strategic approach needed to drive both near- and long-term priorities for your organisation cybersecurity. It should be aligned with related frameworks and strategies, including the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)'s Cybersecurity Framework. Through this strategy and the associated tasks, your organisation will improve its posture and protect its systems, information, and infrastructure from the cybersecurity threat.
Task
Describe in detail the intrusion detection and prevention measures that you will deploy in your organization

Before you write your paper, conduct this simple experiment on classical conditioning.
You will need a bell (a set of keys works too, a hand-held mirror, and a room that becomes completely dark when the light is turned off. Hold the bell while standing in the room near the light switch. Once in position, ring the bell and then immediately turn off the light. Wait in total darkness for 15 seconds, then turn the light on. Wait another 15 seconds with the light on, then ring the bell and immediately turn the light off again, waiting another 15 seconds in the dark.
Repeat this procedure 20 to 30 times, making sure that in each case the bell is rung immediately before the light is turned off. Now, with the light on, watch your eyes closely in the mirror and then ring the bell. Your pupils should dilate slightly even without a change in light!
Cover the following items in your paper:
Share your experience with this experiment.
Identify the neutral stimulus (NS), the unconditioned stimulus (US), the unconditioned response (UR), the conditioned stimulus (CS), and the conditioned response (CR). (You must identify these five elements to receive full credit.)
Identify two to three real-life examples of classical conditioning that you are aware of in your life.
This paper should be one page.

Periodic inventory by three methods; cost of goods sold
The units of an item available for sale during the year were as follows:
| Jan. 1 | Inventory | 180 | units at $108 |
| Mar. 10 | Purchase | 224 | units at $110 |
| Aug. 30 | Purchase | 200 | units at $116 |
| Dec. 12 | Purchase | 196 | units at $120 |
There are 208 units of the item in the physical inventory at December 31. The periodic inventory system is used. Determine the ending inventory cost and the cost of goods sold by three methods.
