Document Summary

Zen - a japanese word that was inherited from sanskrit; understanding the purpose or meaning of life without being misled by logic. Indian buddhist monk who brought buddhism to east asia. Flower has a special meaning in buddhism, the idea is that the assimilation of the deepest dimensions of buddhism must take place through a particular artistic activity. Not only that activity is an acquisition of skill, technique, but more importantly there is a particular procession whereby ultimate mastery of the art manifests through egoless ability to let the action take place on its accord. Trapped between a desire for enlightenment and ties to the suffering of the mundane world. Return to the origin/ source vs staying home. Spirit of zen is all about contemplation and the process itself is the end in buddha nature. Koan can be accompanied by shouting or hitting, anything that wakes u up since u are in slumber so it"s concerned with rinzai.

Final ProjectâConduct an In-depth Literature Review

For the final project, you are required to investigate a health problem, focusing on the nature and scope of the problem (disease or disparity), the factors that are associated with this problem (behavioral, social, environmental), and what several organizations are doing about it. Through your research, you will come to understand how a particular health problem is multidimensional; how various organizations provide funding, programs, and resources to address such issues. you need to submit a tentative outline and purpose statement.

TAX AND AUDIT DEPARTMENT

Discussion

In this Unit, you will evaluate and address culture anddiversity in the workplace. Before continuing on to answer thequestions, review the following PREZIâ¢ presentation: âUnderstandingthe Cultural Dimensions of an Organization.â

Read the article âGetting a Read on Corporate Cultureâ

Read the information on IFRS.

Additionally, your internship/externship employer should haveprovided you with an employee manual that outlines theorganizational policies and procedures. An important part of anyemployee manual is the organizationâs policy statement on cultureand diversity. If your internship/externship employer does not havea policy statement with regard to culture and diversity, you willneed to analyze the organization's position on culture anddiversity based on your experiences and observations.

Answer the following questions about your experiences andobservations at your internship/externship organization with regardto cultural literacy in personal and professional environments:

What are some basic dimensions that describe the culturalorientation of your externship employer organization?

What are some of the major characteristics of diversity in yourexternship employer organization?

What privacy issues impact stakeholders in your externshipemployer organization?

Based on your observations, are there motivational differencesbetween employees across cultures in your externship employerorganization?

Be sure to discuss the following topics within your answerpost:

Apply cultural literacy in personal and professionalenvironments.

Respect for other cultures

Communicate and adopt across cultures

Impact of actions on you and others

Aware of the value of and limitations

DUE DATE: 12 00 noon Monday. Dec 6. 2010. The problems on this assignment are quite word because strong direction is being given to Students in how to proceed. Two problems will be selected at random for marking. Percentage polarization. It is useful to characterize partially polarized light in terms of its "percentage polarization". A light beam of constant intensity Io. is allowed to fall at normal incidence on an "ideal linear polarizer" (a linear polarizer is "ideal" if it panes all light polarized parallel to the polarizer's axis, and stops all light polarized perpendicular to that axis.) As the ideal polarizer is rotated continuously (see Figure 8.1; about an axis perpendicular to its plane, the transmitted intensity I passes through successive maximum and minimum values (denoted by I max and I min). The percentage polarization of the incident light is denned to be Find the percentage polarization measured in this way for the following light beams: "Unpolarized natural light" tor which I max = I min = Io/2. A beam of light. Initially unpolarixed. that has been passed through an ideal linear polarizer before being measured for percentage polarization. A beam of light, initially unpolarizcd, that has been passed through a non-ideal polarizer that (in terms of light intensity) transmits 70% of light polarized parallel to its polarizing axis and 20% of light polarized perpendicular to its polarizing axis. Circularly polarized light. (Circular polarization means that at any given fixed observation point In the beam, the E-vector has constant magnitude but rotates at the frequency of the electric field oscillations so that the tip of the vector describes a circle in the zy plane (perpendicular to the light ray at the point in question). Elliptically polarized light for which the tip of the E-vector moves on an ellipse in the x y plane, defined by where Ax and Ay are the amplitudes of the oscillating Ex and E y components of the electric field vector, and is the phase difference between those oscillations. NOTE: Do your calculation for the special case Ax = 2Ay and e =pi / 2. [(8.2) taxes a particularly simple form when e = pi / 2.]
