https://www.wsj.com/articles/how-amazons-shipping-empire-is-challenging-ups-and-fedex-11567071003
There is also a video at the end of the site.
After you complete that, please think and discuss Amazon’s actions from the lens of CH 4, 5 and 6.

Consider the following issues/questions before posting your analysis. You don’t have to answer each question separately.

1. Why should Amazon build more warehouses as it grows? Why can it not rely on third parties like it used to?
2. How does Amazon’s strategy add value to the e-commerce process and your experience?
3. List and evaluate the major uncertainties (high risk, high impact etc.) that Amazon faces in it’s supply chain design decision?
After you post your analysis, please engage at least two other group members in analyzing their work and discussing their thought/opinions and findings.

African American

You are to focus on one of the following ethnic groups from the Sue and Sue text (African Americans, Latinos, Jewish Americans, Native Americans, Asian American and Pacific Islanders, Middle Eastern Americans) and prepare a PowerPoint with 15 minute audio on the following aspects:

The immigration history of this group
Cultural values, norms and traditions that influence the development of the individual within the family or affect family dynamics.
Historical issues and their impact on members of the group
World view including Communication patterns and typical family structure
A common social justice/advocacy issue that one might encounter when working with this group. Include ideas or strategies as to how one might be an advocate in regards to this issue.
Identity models and theories as they pertain to this group
Clinical applications how these ideas affect practice of psychotherapy within this group
Find local resources that service this population.
You will need to scout this out on your own. I strongly recommend that you make contact with someone in the agency to find out the nature and extent of the services offered to this population. You might also consider interviewing a person of this cultural group about their experiences with the counseling or mental health system and their groups perceptions of the mental health system.

Provide a handout for the class which outlines the main points of your presentation (e.g., a copy of the power point presentation) and also includes as a list of additional references about this cultural group, including those used in the presentation.

Herodotus on the WAr of Greek Freedom

Directions. Write a paper of three to four pages in length on one of topics listed below. The purpose of this paper is to enable you to discuss the sources for ancient history critically, intelligently, sensibly and concisely. Do not waste your time merely summarizing the contents of your sources; instead, you should consider the plausibility of the various accounts, the discrepancies between them and, in particular, the problems and issues they raise. Your grade will be based on the overall effectiveness of your argument, which includes the content as well as the style and clarity of your writing. Be sure to have a thesis that directly addresses the topic you select and to state that thesis clearly at the outset of your paper. For every point you make, you need to support it with examples from the primary (i.e. ancient) source/s. You should cite quotations parenthetically. For example, when citing a passage from Thucydides, Book 3, chapter 82, cite as follows: Thucydides noted that “war is a stern teacher” (Thuc. 3.82). Note that for ancient (primary) texts, you do not cite page numbers, which differ depending upon the edition used, but chapter, section, and, when available, line numbers. For plays, cite the appropriate line numbers in the translation you are using. If citing Homer, cite the title, book, and line numbers. Be sure to avoid any unnecessary quotation of texts, avoid very long quotations or using too many quotations, or including too much historical narrative. You can give some narrative but you want to have more analysis than narrative.

You are free to write about any relevant and historical topic of your choice but I must approve the topic in advance, if you choose not to write on one of those given below. Papers written on topics not approved in advance by me will not be read and will earn a zero. For most topics, you need to consult only the relevant ancient authors. I have indicated below the main ancient sources you will need to read for each question. Please note that these primary sources may come from our assigned texts or from other ancient sources. You may also consult secondary (modern) sources, but I would caution you against using the internet, which can be quite unreliable. Obviously, if you choose to write about a topic in Herodotus or Homer, you may need to read the whole text before tackling the topic.

Your paper should have a short, informative title that reflects your thesis (i.e. not too vague) and include a brief introduction, containing your thesis statement, that is, what you will attempt to argue. Note: you must have a thesis statementtell the reader near the beginning what the paper will argue. No cover page is necessary. Include a bibliography. Do not use the first person (I think that Avoid the use of contractions. Please write with clarity and brevity in individual sentences and discernible organization in the paper as a whole.

ESSAY TOPIC:
Some readers of Herodotus have found him, now and then, apparently rather gullible; he has even been called the Father of Lies. To what extent would you agree with, or modify, this impression? Discuss and analyze specific instances from your reading where his reliability and his accuracy should be evaluated.
