For this myocardial infarction, the right coronary artery was blocked. The parts of the heart that were affected by this blockage was the right atrium, the right ventricle, the interventricular septum, the Sinoatrial node and the AV node, and some parts of the left atrium and ventricle. These parts were affected because the right coronary artery supplies blood to these parts of the heart; since there was a blockage the blood was not able to continue through the right coronary arteries into its branches, which are the sinoatrial nodal artery, the right marginal branch, the posterior interventricular branch, and the atrioventricular nodal artery (Gest).

For those deputies who have shown interest in areas where he is less knowledgeable, he has contacted other experienced deputies and supervisors and provided the opportunity for the deputies to work with them. Sergeant Prindle shows that he is concerned with his squad’s personal wellbeing too. When his deputies have personal situations, he contacts them and offers his personal assistance. Sergeant Prindle conducts himself in a professional manner and his leadership style gains the respect of his deputies. His uniform is always clean, pressed and well fitted. His command presence is an example for others to follow. He motivates his deputies by leading from the front, answering calls for service and conducting traffic stops, while maintaining his administrative duties. He maintains a healthy lifestyle and encourages his deputies to do the same. He is also an active member of the SWAT team and encourages his deputies to seek out collateral duties to enhance their law enforcement career and expand their knowledge. On his off time, Sergeant Prindle is also a leader in the Air Force Reserve, currently holding the rank of Lieutenant Colonel. Balancing two leadership roles while maintaining physical fitness and a family is not an easy task, yet, he handles it with ease.
Recent accomplishments include a Division Commendation for my undercover role in the Joint Terrorism Task Force’s Operation "Phone Flash." A Letter of Commendation for my undercover role in an investigation related to the Weapons Trafficking Unit’s Operation "Southern Draw," and a Certificate of Unit Commendation for my primary investigative role in the Weapons Trafficking Unit’s Operation "Grave Digger." Over the course of my career, I have supervised civilian employees while assigned to the Operational Dispatch Unit. During this assignment, I was responsible for providing evaluations, appraisals, and reprimands for all squad members. I also coordinated daily briefings, encouraging positive and productive performance. I met with each squad
I have had the pleasure of supervising Officer Maiques for approximately 5 month following a shift change. During this time, I have seen Officer Maiques recognize how important customer service is to the community. I have observed him in the field working hard and getting to know the residents of his beat. He regularly participates in briefing discussions and he is actively seeking self improvement through training classes. Officer Maiques sometimes requires supervisory advice on calls not to make decisions for him but to ensure he is making the proper ones. As time has gone by these incidents have decreased in frequency ,a clear sign that he is gaining confidence in his decision making abilities. Officer Maiques gets along well with others and works well as a member of a team.

The case study focuses on an employee, Paul Keller, who is being affected by a number of factors. His job performance is hindered by constraints such as his work environment, his home environment, stressors, mood, and the management style of his superior. The case study demonstrates how his job performance is affected and what the consequences could be as a result of his poor job performance and lack of concentration.
1. To begin, assume that it is now January 1, 1993, and that each bond in Table 1 matures on December 31 of the year listed. Further, assumes that each bond has $1,000 par value, each had a 30-year maturity when it was issued, and the bonds currently have a 10 percent required nominal rate or return.
Upon reviewing Officer Smith’s lower than average field statistics, I decided to reach out to her previous supervisor to inquire about her performance. The phone call with Officer Smith’s Sargent in Alpha District proved to be fruitless. The supervisor attested Officer Smith had several curbside counseling sessions and other feedback to improve her work. Unfortunately, none of the sessions were documented and therefore is merely hearsay. As her current supervisor, I have to assume no steps were taken to provide Officer Smith with the resources and training she so desperately needs.
Gilmartin begins by describing the typical rookie officer. Most are energetic, idealistic, enthusiastic and very driven. Quickly this enthusiasm can change from one of positivity to one that is very cynical and emotionally charged. These behaviors and thoughts over time if not corrected become exacerbated leading to noticeable mental and physical changes. The author, Gilmartin, uses personal experiences and other real life stories effectively so that many officers can relate and identify with the topic of the book.
1. By going public Rosetta Stone would be able to obtain the capital required to expand the business and enter new markets. Another advantage of going public is the ability for Rosetta Stone to increase its brand’s image, awareness, and reputation. An IPO could be a good move because of the increased globalization occurring that has led to more and more people learning needing or wanting to learn different languages. Going public as the economy is just coming out of its recession could prove to be advantageous for Rosetta Stone. The case gave the example of Changyou.com going public at six and a half times its EBITDA. It also mentioned that the CEO of Rosetta Stone had concerns about being taken over if they stayed
It has been said that the Noncommissioned Officer (NCO) Corps is the backbone of the Army (Sheehan, 2009 p 2). It is up to the Noncommissioned Officers to teach lower enlisted Soldiers the right way to do things and teach them to steer clear of the wrong way. Since September 11, 2001 our nation, in one form or fashion, has been at war. During these times of war, the Army lost sight of some of the smaller things. Unfortunately, the smaller things can make the biggest differences. These smaller things are; training our subordinates to be a Noncommissioned Officer, counseling Soldiers to improve their effectiveness, having pride in serving as a member of the military, and mentoring Soldiers to teach personal motivation to obtain something. Admittedly some of these things can be credited to a change in our culture but there used to be a way of squeezing these things out of our Soldiers that just cannot be done anymore. In the new rapid deployment Army, the Noncommissioned Officer corps has lost sight of how to train and instill these traits in our Soldiers. Instead, Soldiers have been allowed to become complacent in their stagnant state.
