The next second is not promised to you .

These are for the most part for me, but if you can use it then so be it if not just keep pushing. The next second is not promised to you. We all should be living each day and moment like it is our last moment on earth because it just may simply be just that. This earthly dwelling place is the most mundane low life place to exist and is the reason why we are faced with incalculable atrocities that seemingly are happening everyday all around us. We as a human race should demonstrate love, respect, integrity, honor and most of all the fear of the most high Elohim. But in the last evil days we are doing just the opposite of what the KING has commanded for us to do. Time is out for playing around, lying , cheating, stealing , murdering, committing adultery and idolatry, fornication and all the things that negative spirits do. Unfortunately, when you die it is not the end of you, but it is the beginning of a life that you never experienced before and there are consequences for our actions in the next life. Now do you wanna play "Believe it or not"? Regardless, it is entirely up to you per say what you want to believe but I would rather not take a chance on something that has such great repercussions. There was once a time it was being overlooked our foolishness but now as you can very well see Elohim is not playing with us any more. The signs are too great and are being shown to us each and every day that we turn on our TVs and look at the news. Earthquakes, floods, Tsunamis' , wars rumors of wars but we continue to think that this man is playing a game. Who is to say that when you walk out of your front door for work tomorrow that you will return the same condition as when you left home? The way the world is operating now, you can't be for sure if you will wake up in the morning. Some of us sleep with the enemy everyday and some of us don't even realize that we ourselves are the enemy that has been plaguing us all of our life and not the next man. Since the next moment is not promised to us should be more aware of our thought processes and the way we carry on. You are not really getting away with anything and everything is exposed so you do not have any secrets "Believe it or not". Come clean with yourself first and quit perpetrating a fraud. Some of us should be arrested for for living a lie or a fraud. What is meant by this statement is if you or a family member that lives in your household receives Federal service or aide like welfare or even food stamps then that would sort of make buying a pair of JORDANS or $300 /$400 dollars worth of Brazilian hair seem rather foolish wouldn't you think? Better yet , if you live in section eight or your home is shotgun why do you continue to buy knock off GUCCI bags and fake Coach purses? Sorry no one is impressed stop doing that dumb #$@!. And for the man how you driving around in a challenger all decked and system playing all loud out but you borrowing your girlfriend foodstamp card to put food on your table at your mommas house. And if you working on the dock in shipping and receiving how you online talking about you balling out of control and if you were to get laid off tomorrow by next month you at risk of losing your apartment? Come on people wake the up!

Timing is Everything!

Timing is Everything. If timing is everything, why are we always so dog gonit late? Trying to be seen and trying to make a statement when all you doing is making yourself look like a fool. One primary reason not to make this a habit is it is disrespectful. The world does not revolve around your or my insignificant, misconstrued, delusional, egotistical, selfish, diabolical half buttock. Why do we show up to work late, show up to appointments late, say I love you too late, cook dinner late, sleep in too late,pay bills late, eat late, raise the kids late, disregard the family until it is too late, take care of business late, cut the grass late, say goodbye to losers that mean you no benefit too late, say I'm sorry too late, move on too late, stop smoking cigarettes to late, stop doing drugs, stop cheating until it's too late, finish college late, late to listen to momma , late checking for colon cancer, late getting HIV screening, late going to dentist, late showing up to church, late following doctors orders just late. Now how can "GOD" be an on time GOD but you are always late? Everybody be screaming GOD is an on time GOD, but they always late. I think this is called bi-polarism when there is a disconnect somewhere. What results do you expect? Not too good, I suppose based on your actions. If you keeping going in the manner you are, more than likely the results are going to be devastating. Do yourself a favor and represent in the best way. Get up off your lazy butt and do something. Stay up to the real challenge and take care of business. There will be plenty of time to sleep after retirement and I guarantee you it will not be what you expect. Sleepers never get anything more than a dream. But you are so right he is an on time GOD in every way.

EBOLA.... What exactly is it? Is it a bio-nuclear weapon? What was the Scarlet fever then?

EBOLA an epidemic that faces us head on. If you haven't yet, take a look at some of the social media pictures of what it looks like. As much as we would like to believe, there are some people in this world that does not have our best interest at heart. Fact of the matter, most people are not as good as we thought , deep down inside like we have previously taught. Fact is , it is totally opposite. For the most part , people are low down to some extent. All you have to do , is look within yourself and see if you find some covetousness, jealousy, envy, idolatry, strife or even just a bit of racism. And when you have the courage to look within, make sure you are honest with yourself when you examine what's in your heart, be sure you are true to yourself. Because you are the only one being fooled. We can identify with this claim based on current economic and social reports . Just a brief drive around the U.S. to some inner city, is overwhelming evidence of disparities and attempts of cultural or racial divide and eradication. This is nothing new, there have been many other situations like this; where some new highly infectious disease just appear out of nowhere, per say. For example the Holocaust or what have you, although some may think it is not the same situation, but in essence it really is. Also, Numerous other diseases were brought to Native American tribes, including measles, scarlet fever, typhoid, typhus, influenza, pertussis (whooping cough), tuberculosis, cholera, diphtheria, chickenpox and sexually transmitted diseases.[4] Each of these diseases brought destruction through sweeping epidemics, involving illness and extensive death. Many Native American tribes experienced extensive depopulation, averaging 25–50 percent of tribal life lost due to disease. Additionally, singular tribes also neared extinction after facing severely destructive spread of disease.[4] The significant toll that this took on Native populations is expounded upon in the article Population history of indigenous peoples of the Americas. For all those who have heard either read the history of HIV and syphilis to name a couple, it almost appears to be the same situation. In that respect, it makes you wonder "WHO" is doing this? Is it some physician seeking fame or 5 minutes on MSNBC or can it be a biological scientist responsible or maybe even a terrorist? It is very conspicuous, that no one anywhere has ever heard of or even seen such a thing until the vaccine is nearly ready to hit the market. In this very uncivil society, is it probable to suspect that there is someone doing this at the cost of innocent lives? I would dare to think so... In other words, is there a biological and or pharmaceutical firm seeking that next multi-million dollar contract or fame? Let's wait and see because it all will come out in the wash. In this ever increasing money hungry and greedy society nothing anymore seems to be a shocker. People are doing the most and are more evil now than they have ever been. To many dipsticks wanna drive a Porsche, bently a big house extended bank account... Rather than love people this society tends to love things more... Unfortunately, there will also be a price and consequence for even thinking such a cynical thought. It is my belief that the first firm to appear with the panacea, I will need to ask this question , are you the responsible party for creating this disease? I'm just saying.... Based on prior revelations of other epidemics, it surely leaves enough room for speculation. If we take the time to consider, every race of people claims that they are sitting with their hands on the trigger of a catastrophic bio-nuclear weapon, if you will. Per adventure, someone pull that trigger and expose the earth to a bio-nuclear weapon of mass destruction. There will be no where to hide, although we don't have to worry about this, because only the KING of glory has that type of power. Heaven forbid, a disaster of this caliber should ever take place in our lifetime . Nevertheless, the threat is among us as we continue on with our daily lives as if the pot isn't about to blow up. The evil that lurks beneath the temporal manifestation of human existence is real and rampant. In today's world you can not be to careful about no particular situation, person or deed. All to often now, we are seeing more and more famines ,pestilences , disease, destruction and war and nation against nation and so on and so forth. How can we pretend we are in oblivion? Meanwhile, we are anxiously watching OUR world come tumbling down. It is true, it is nothing that we can do to stop our pending destination. However, we can submit ourselves and be more cognizant and aware of the existence of Yahweh our Elohim . Not just in word, I'm totally speaking in truth and in deed. Now, don't say you never heard of such a thing. For example, didn't a very large name brand technology firm who was selling operating systems and anti-virus software, also go about to hire another team of techies to crack or even break the OS or penetrate the same OS or virus software, or something like that? If you don't know yes it was google to find out who. Enjoy up to 50% off on your favorite skincare products. Valid 12/26-1/18 Mix and Match your Favorite Mini Skincare Products. Buy 2 Get 1 FREE!

Capital Budgeting

The capital budgeting process determines which long-term capital investments that should be chosen during a particular time or period and is normally overseen by the finance department. “Capital budgeting allows managers to perform cost benefit analysis on proposed long-term investment projects.” (Kocher, C. (2007)However, the investors in stocks and bonds have no affect over the business and thus no control over the monies that are generated by capital projects or other operating businesses. After the project planning phase there is the then there is the “payback period”, which is the time there after the project to collect any rewards due. During this very important phase management have anticipate some type of projection of when the project will be able to pay back that which was spent on the initial investment. Firstly, determining the value of capital investment projects, such as buying a building or a piece of equipment and determining the value of stocks and bonds is all part of the financial process including estimating the ROI (Return on investment). Finance managers will need to acquire are should already have skills necessary to be able to forecast and make necessary adjustments when the economy is on a downturn and scale up when things are turned around. This skill set will determine your organizations success or failure. Furthermore, it is of utmost importance that financial managers have the ability to be able to gauge and assess risk measurement and management practices that supports organizations’ goals, objectives and capital investment adequacy including their ability to account for estimated losses and gains. Secondly, with on-going and continued advancements and changes in health care such as changes in payments methods, patient care access, home care and records security, it has become increasingly imperative that finance officials, nurses, physicians, managers as well as all other medical staff member establish and nurture a close working relationship and a strong relationship also is recommended. Thirdly, recent studies have shown an increase in a need for CFO (Chief Financial Officers) to implement a path for establishing a positive working relationship with physicians and other professionals in their working environment. Inasmuch as the, Chief Financial Officer and other medical staff partnerships is censorious to the organizational success. Although, they just speak different languages and have very different needs and requirements, it is necessary that they have open lines of communication. Fourthly, by appointing physicians to the finance committee you can help them understand how hospital finance works. Inviting them to take a tour of the department so they can gain insight on the entire financial process is also a good gesture. Furthermore, engaging the finance and medical departments and educating them with goals and objectives of the facility will also offer an advantage. The urgency for healthcare finance leaders, managers and nurses to gain the advantage of each other’s skill sets is amplifying very rapidly. As health care providers look for ways to manage for value, better coordination of care and continuance will dominate and steer the conclusions throughout the population and help to better understand the differing resource needs in every department. Those nurses, physicians, budget analyst and other medical specialist that work closely knitted with finance executives will more likely be able to identify opportunities to achieve higher quality outcomes and be more susceptible to communicate those needs as compared to those who work in closed and/or non-productive environments. These characteristics of a closely knitted working relationship provides a scenarios that implies a company that would reflect positive changes in the future economic and financial outlook with regard to those specific risks or vulnerabilities because of the open communication and dedication of the employees. Furthermore, managements need to understand the formulation in testing the sensitivity of the forecast regarding scenarios, such as slowdowns in collections and declines in revenues is vindicated. Charnes and Cooper introduced the concept of goal programming as an operational approach to capital budgeting which was “ instead of attempting to minimize or maximize the objective criteria directly, goal programming attempts to minimize the deviations between goals both sequentially and simultaneously, allowing for both scalar weighting and/or ordinal ranking.” . (Keown, A. J., & Martin, J. D. (1976) In conclusion, recently proposed changes in health care as a result of Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA), signed into law in 2010 has become of great significance and therefore, will require more of a need to conduct business is open and transparent conditions to meet the new policies and laws standardization. “This transformation requires health system leaders and health finance scholars to re-examine hospital capital budgeting practices in the context of new delivery models”. (Reiter, K., & Song, P. (2013) In order to reduce some of the accountability burdens, medical firms are hiring financial managers who are amongst the most qualified to face critical changes and decisions when faced with keeping up with the trending patterns. The necessary skills to maintain the bottom line has become even more difficult as the medical industry continues to become more complex within itself. Uncertainty and obscurity of the future can heed the progress and stunt growth of your organization. Creating contingency plans in the event a disaster should occur is advisable in most business industries. References Keown, A. J., & Martin, J. D. (1976).

Fannie Mae and "honest" company?

According to Jennings' , Fannie Mae was created as a different sort of business entity, a shareholder-owned corporation with a federal charter. m(Jennings, 2012, p. 121) Though, its' relationship to a federal entity seems enticing, is still is a business that is run by an individual or individuals. In no instance can we, forget that behind any business it is a person that is acting on behalf of the owner or owners. On the surface it appeared as if this organization had a purpose, which was to help those in need. However, what we discovered, is that it in fact acted in some sense as would any other business, which was to gain more cash flow. Like many other business Fannie Mae was rebuilt with the same structure as other Wall Street businesses. The shareholder-owned corporation had one responsibility and we have heard it all to often and it was to gain more access to the private market and ultimately, more cash. Though, Fannie Mae was once perceived as the most ethical company, they were also found to have fallacies like any other business entity. We can not assume that no individual or business is morally or 100 percent ethically correct. Ethics will continue to be a work in progress because there is still much that we do not know about the topic in general. By continuing to educate ourselves and the entire working population we will strive to be better. In conclusion, I do not think that Fannie Mae was an "honest" company. I think it was just like to rest unfortunately. Fannie Mae, once offered a sense of security but today you have to be just as reluctant as would any other mortgage company. References Jennings, M.

What is the difference between Entine and Jennings' eight questions and traditional measures of social responsibility?

The traditional measures of social responsibility have been somewhat a challenge that has been overlooked for the most part. Not until late, has this been a issue. However, Jennings and Entine discovered that there is a way to determine the soul of a company. In order to do so you can conduct an examination to look beyond political issues. Presuming that you fellow citizens are cognizant of social responsibility can be made in error. It is evident that there is lot that we are not aware of, in regards to preservation of the earth. For instance, years ago we didn't realize that global warming would become an issue. Not only has global warming become an issue, but we have recently learned that we have contributed to the issue. Furthermore, not only do we have obligations to our communities, but we should extend our appreciation to the earth that we live on. It is by far, all of our responsibility to protect and preserve our earth. Therefore, in spite of of work place obligations, there should be a more pressing or moral obligation. With that being said, our actions, motives and our obligations characterize and label us rather we are aware or not. Likewise, business decisions can effect you as well as the consumers you are marketing to. Your actions are indicative of the morals that you value. Therefore, your integrity will set you apart in most cases from your competitors. It is always a smart business move to conduct yourself in a manner conducive to being morally and ethically correct. In times past, it was not important to consider the effects of business decisions. Today, more companies are considering the political risk, environmental and social impact of business activities. Though, some have benefited financially, it only last for a short while. Meanwhile, if you do what is socially and legally correct you will not have to pay for your negligence in the long run. Therefore , appeasing stakeholder and business owners is not always an easy job. However, you must take a stance and do what is ethically correct as much as possible. References Jennings, M. (2012).

Assessing Corporate Responsibility

"Fair and just treatment in the workplace is an issue the company must face in making a decision for foreign outsourcing of labor." (Jennings, 2012, pg 91) Jon Entine and Marianne M. Jennings have opposing views as compared to those of Friedman and Freeman. First, according to Friedmans' view the social responsibility of business is to increase its profits. As far as he was concerned a individual can act according to his own desires because he is in fact separate and apart from the organization. Friedman suggested, that a corporation is an artificial person in a sense , therefore lacking responsibility as it were. Also, according to Friedman, in a free-enterprise, private-property system, the corporate executive or manager is only an employee thus, having primary responsibility only to it's employer, business owner and other stockholders within the organization. Basically his only interest it to that of the businessmen. Furthermore, Friedman implied that later on it will be the "iron fist of the government bureaucrats" that will be the external force to cause organizations to comply or to operate in a manner suitable to social responsibility. Freeman wanted to rejuvenate the idea of managerial capitalism by replacing the notion that managers have a duty only to the stockholder , but more importantly a more legally and ethical trusted relationship between the stockholders. In both cases, the dedication to the stockholder and maximizing profits was ideal. On the other hand, Jennings and Entine has eluded to the idea that organizations and businesses are more socially conscious. Therefore, are more compelled to do what is morally and socially proper. According, to Jennings and Entine companies are engaged with producing more "green" and sociable responsible products. Although, they suggest that no company can ever be ethically perfect, you can still make a determination by conducting examination of the soul of the company. References Jennings, M. (2012).
