The research paper should be 1300-1500 words long (including in-text citations). It should be organized, concise, original, and persuasive.

Question prompt:
Many scholars argue that “narratives” are a source of power. For example, Joseph Nye argues that in the contemporary world power is no longer about “whose army wins; it’s also whose story wins.” Consequently, he suggests that “we have to think much more in terms of narratives and whose narrative is going to be effective.” Increasingly, however, the ability to disseminate narratives is concentrated in the hands of engineers and managers of massive, unaccountable high-tech companies, such as Alphabet, Apple, Meta, and Twitter, among others. Using a very specific example as a case study, evaluate the role of such media platforms in global affairs.

Sources: your paper should be based on at least six external, reputable references as data sources
(scholarly articles, academic books, official statistics, government/IGO/NGO reports, etc). Newspapers and magazines may, and in fact should, be used where appropriate, but they must be supplemented by at least six external academic and/or primary sources.

Please provide a list of all references used at the end of your paper (this does not count toward the
word limit). Your referencing should be accurate and consistent throughout the paper, and the list of
references at the end should be in alphabetical order.

Please write a 4 page paper on the recent banking failures. Consider management failures, regulator monitoring failures, macroeconomic (Federal Reserve) impact. You might want to include your opinion on, a) what changes, if any, would you recommend in regulations, b) how this will this effect the banking industry, and c) how should the depositors, stockholders and management of these banks be treated. Please feel free to craft your paper in any direction based on your research. This will be a great topic to really dig into banking rules and the thoughts of pundits on the subject.

I look forward to reading your paper!

Trauma encompasses such events as child abuse and neglect, sexual assault, violence, incarceration, natural disaster, sex trafficking, traumatic grief, and bullying—and can occur at any age. Even after the immediate threat has passed, the trauma can continue to influence a person’s life in negative ways.
For adolescents, trauma can interfere with typical biological, psychological, and social development occurring at this stage. Imagine the case of a teen who has been assaulted. That person may become withdrawn and avoid social interaction as a direct result of the trauma experienced, thus impacting their social development.
In this Discussion, you assess how trauma has influenced an adolescent and how you might assist as a social worker.

Review the Learning Resources on trauma, adolescence, and social work with adolescents. Pay particular attention to the Levenson (2020) article.
Access the Social Work Case Studies media and navigate to Brady and to Tiffani. Choose one on which to focus this Discussion. (TRANSCRIPTS ATTACHED BELOW FOR BRADY AND TIFFANI)

Post an assessment of the trauma the adolescent has experienced and how that may impact their development. Bearing in mind that environmental concerns have been addressed, utilize your advanced-level skills to identify a modality that is appropriate for the developmental stage. Finally, describe some assumptions and pitfalls of the modality as it relates to the population.

Locate and read at least three reviews, popular articles, or blog posts that respond to the film that you have chosen to analyze. Try to find a variety of responses to your chosen film. In other words, take note of whether the responses come from different age groups, genders, professional reviewers or informal bloggers, and so on.
Apply the research questions you developed in task 3-1 to the sources you have found. What do these reviews reveal about the assumptions and expectations that audiences bring to your selected film and the social issues it portrays?

In conclusion, explain how the use of sociological theory helps to challenge personal and societal assumptions when analyzing an item or issue. Provide a specific example in relation to your assumptions about the film or social issues present. For example, how will you use the theory to limit your biases in relation to the specific film or social issues?
You will also reflect on how sociological theories inform research interests and career goals in the social sciences.In conclusion, explain how the use of sociological theory helps to challenge personal and societal assumptions when analyzing an item or issue.

Review the four test manuals attached to this assignment. For each manual, look for and identify the following:

How were measures developed (e.g., normative sample)?
Reliability (type and amount)
Validity (type and amount)
What is the appropriate use of the test?
Test user/administrator qualifications
What kind of interpretation is needed?
What scores, reports, etc., are available for purchase?
In some instances, this information may be missing. After you have bullet pointed out responses to the above, provide an evaluative paragraph which provides your opinion of the quality of the test and whether or not you would recommend an organization use it. Explain your rationale.

In a short paragraph of 7-10 sentences (not including quotes), respond to one of the following prompts. Be sure to cite and analyze at least two pieces of evidence in support of your claims. Consider literary elements/devices in your paragraph.

1. Characterization and Character Development:

Be sure to cite and analyze at least two pieces of evidence in support of your claims. Consider literary elements/devices in your paragraph. Ony use the book pages as a source.

A. To what extent does Monkey show himself as a dynamic character in chapter 21?

Choose any food and beverage (F&B) based operation from the UK, Europe or the World (the more
specific you are the better i.e. not just a restaurant but the type of restaurant and even the name of
a specific operation. You can choose any foodservice operation or a flight caterer or prison food
provision or … ).
You are acting as an external consultant and have been asked to advise the operation’s management
team on the key measures of operational performance that they should use to help control their
business.
Initially you should summarise the chosen operation and review it critically. This will involve
summarising the key positive and negative features of the operation and supporting these with
external sources. It may well be that some of the negative features you highlight form areas you
propose to measure below.
You will need to select, describe and justify two different measures of operational performance
(operational KPIs) related to F&B operations, using the literature as appropriate, that you feel would
provide them with the key information they need to manage that operation effectively.
So do not just think of what the measures are and details of how, where and when they would be
calculated but why they are particularly relevant to the operation you have chosen. How will using
these measures help them to manage this particular operation?
The measures should allow you to control the operation on a day to day basis and so should be
clearly operationally focussed and not the sort of measures or ratios you would use in financing the
business.
You do not need to calculate measures. Just explain why you have chosen them and how they allow
you to manage this F&B operation effectively.
You should include an executive summary which highlights the key issues you have discussed and
your proposals to the management team. 1400 words excluding the refrences and the cover page.
