Why is Van Gogh considered the true forerunner, though not the theoretican, of the “spiritual” in art?

Questions to consider after watching this video on which you will be asked to post:1. Why is Van Gogh considered the true forerunner, though not the theoretican, of the “spiritual” in art? Since Van Gogh was the first modern painter to convey his own tormented,inner lifewithout the traditional concern for faithfully representing external reality, how would you (1) characterize his career (2) describe in your own words and concepts the “spiritual” dimensions of his unique artistic output? 2. How in your impression does Kandinsky, as the major figure of “expressionism,” develop the style and approach of Van Gogh? He does he diverge, or differ?3. What is abstractionism, broadly speaking? How is it related to “the spiritual in art”, so far as you understand the term? (NOTE: you will have opportunities to deepen your understanding of what this question means as the course continues, so we are just looking for your initial impressions, thoughts, and insights at this point).

How many cases of Crescent Pure will PDB need to sell to recover cover the costs of advertising?

Positioning Alternatives. PDB is interested in three positioning alternatives. First identify the alternatives (energy-drink, sports-drink, healthy organic), then discuss the pros and cons of each. You are allowed to use bullet points in this section as long as the bullet points are complete sentences. One to three sentences per point should suffice.Remember to support your answers with evidence where needed. For example, if you believe something is an advantage or disadvantage (e.g., price), clearly identify it as such (e.g., The product’s low price is potentially a disadvantage in this product sector) and then, if it would not be obvious to the uninformed reader, refer to the evidence that supports it. (e.g., Focus group participants were skeptical that a lower-priced product could meet their expectations for better taste & performance).Marketing Mix. It is clear that PDB management has made some decisions about product, price, place and promotion ahead of the positioning decision. What specific product decisions, price decisions, market coverage/distribution decisions and promotion decisions have been made, and how do they constrain the positioning decision?Break-Even Analysis.

describe the policies that already exist in your state and explain how your initiative might alter these existing policies.

Child Welfare Policy IIPolicies in any domain determine what can and cannot be done within that domain, and social work is no exception. Social workers need to be prepared to assume and maintain leadership roles in public discussions about policies, programs, and services affecting children and their families. In fact, the social work profession’s role as a voice for children, their families, their education, and their future was a key element in its development—and it is as vital today as it has been at any other time in history.How do you think understanding and being able to analyze policies in social work could help you as a social worker? Could you operate within the guidelines of policies without thoroughly understanding them? Could you propose amendments to existing policies or argue for new policies without being able to analyze the existing policies?This week, you analyze the National Association of Social Workers (NASW) child welfare initiatives, as well as past and current social policy related to a social issue you select. You also identify funding levels associated with a specific welfare policy.Required ReadingsNASW. (2009). Social work speaks.

Retrieved from http://www.datacenter.kidscount.orgSocial Policy: Child Abuse and NeglectProtecting children from abuse and neglect is a cornerstone of the social work profession. Social work professionals strive to ensure that children grow into healthy, well-developed adults. They also develop, implement, and evaluate policy initiatives regarding child welfare. Such initiatives should aim to not only reduce child abuse and neglect, but also provide support for children’s development and resources that will enhance their well-being. As a social worker, to what extent do you understand the existing policies addressing child abuse and neglect? In addition, how prepared are you to propose new policy initiatives in this regard?For this Discussion, review the resources, including the NASW’s policy statement on child abuse and neglect on the NASW website. Pick one of the NASW positions and consider a policy initiative you would introduce to further that initiative. Be sure to think about the policies that already exist in your state and how this initiative might alter existing policies.By Day 3Post a brief description of the position you selected from the NASW policy statement on child abuse and neglect. Then, describe a policy initiative you might introduce to further that position. Finally, describe the policies that already exist in your state and explain how your initiative might alter these existing policies.Support your post with specific references to the resources. Be sure to provide full APA citations for your references.By Day 5Read a selection of your colleagues’ posts.Respond to at least two colleagues who selected a different position from the one you selected by suggesting how the policy initiative can be achieved. Be sure to identify any challenges or obstacles you see in passing and implementing the initiative.
