As you read Part VIII of the textbook, listen to the podcast, and watch the YouTube video, think about how people first become deviant. Consider what could prevent them from going down these paths. Think about times when you were tempted to commit a crime, binge and purge, take illegal drugs, drop out of school or engage in a dangerous behavior – what stopped you? If you didn’t stop, why not? If you did engage in some of these behaviors, how did you keep them from becoming your identity? How does a person go from one act to a “career” in deviance?After reading Part VIII of your textbook, listening to the podcast, and watching the YouTube Video, discuss what strategies you think parents, lawmakers and social movements could use to intervene before or during the time that folks are becoming deviant. For example, who could have done what to prevent Iceberg Slim from being a pimp? What could be done to prevent a person from committing his or her first burglary? What is your suggestion about advertising campaigns, social movements, education or parenting to prevent children from becoming obese adults? Use at least one of the articles or the podcast to discuss your ideas for identifying “at risk” groups and preventing members of these groups from entering into deviant careers.

As you read part VIII of the textbook, listen to the podcast, and watch the YouTube video, think about how ending a deviant career is relatively easy for some, while for others, it is extremely difficult or even impossible. Think about Iceberg Slim’s description of his pimping career slowly winding down and ultimately fizzling out, while the prostitutes in Chapter 47 had to enlist law enforcement, who sometimes refused to help them, in order to escape their deviant careers. Also, consider ascribed deviance—people who are considered deviant because of some physical characteristic, such as the woman battling obesity (think about the YouTube video “Do You Still Feel Mentally Fat?”), diagnosis (Chapter 49), or Muslim-Americans, following the events of September 11, 2001. For these people, think about the serious changes in physical state and/or location they would need to make to escape their deviant identities. Think about the episode of “ Lockdown” we watched in Module 6 and the challenges associated with trying to shed the identity of a Mexican Mafia member?After reading Chapters 47 and 49, listening to “ Pimp Anthropology” and watching the YouTube Video, “Do you still Feel Mentally Fat?,” discuss how power and social status relate to the process of exiting a deviant career. Are there some deviant labels that come with more or less social status and power than others? Discuss how factors like the legal system, gender, race and disability impact the process of separating from one’s deviant career. Can you think of any ways educators, lawmakers, parents or public agencies can make exiting from a deviant career easier?

3. GWEE is hired by Cartel Oil to conduct a dynamic analysis for profit maximizing in the short-run and the long-run (you can treat this as effectively two periods). Your research estimates total oil demand for the two periods and total income/GDP. Cartel Oil provides you with their level of reserves, marginal cost, and their cost of capital (interest rate) Qd = 200 – 1/3 P + Y, R = 250, GDP or Income (Y) = 70 and does not grow, Interest rate (r) = 10%, and TC = 60Q. a. Estimate the level of production and price in each period if Cartel Oil produced in a competitive environment. What is the optimal price, level of output, and profit? Show the situation graphically. b. Estimate the level of production and price in each period if Cartel Oil behaved as a monopolist. What is the optimal price, level of output, and profit? Show the situation graphically. c. Explain intuitively the differences in a. and b. with an emphasis on the dynamic behavior. d. Suppose that income/ GDP increase by 10% in the 2nd period. Redo your calculations in a. and b. Show the two situations graphically. Explain intuitively

Watching Career Spots video (3:25 minutes)  Hi, my name is John and I am a student at Ashford University completing my Bachelor of Arts in Early Childhood Education. I received the student teacher of the year award at Chapin High in May. Ten of the students I tutored were able to increase their math scores on their TAKS tests by multiple points. I can provide strong teamwork and a strong work ethic to staff at No Excuses Elementary School. Thank you so for your time today and I look forward to talking with you again soon.

 \”Revolving door\” laws prohibit public officials from lobbying activities for one year after they leave office.  Do you think one year is a sufficient period of time to discourage public officials from making decisions in office that might affect their future financial gain?

The operations manager from Banks in Centervale is used to having complete autonomy. However, on this project, he will have to work directly with the locally based manager in China and share decision making. The lead manager says that he wants to have the final say on all decisions as he knows how to align the project with the corporate strategies and objectives, something he has been doing for the past 30 years. The local manager mistrusts the corporate manager because he has been very vocal about not wanting to co-manage on the project. Review the scenario and address the following: Suggest strategies or solutions to neutralize the situation so the project can move forward.Develop a communication plan to coach both managers on how to work together to accomplish the organization’s goals.
