My OIG Strategy for NCPR: Auditing, Findings, Recommendations Essay

Part AMission and strategy of the IGThe mission of my OIG is to protect and enhance the NCPR so that the agency can operate optimally and legally within prescribed regulations. The OIG accomplishes this by overseeing the agency. Through auditing, findings and recommendations, the OIG fulfills its mission. The role of the IG Under the Inspector General Act of 1978, as amended, my duty is to conduct investigations and audits of all 70,000 employees of NCPR, management officials, and the affected Departments. My objective is not only to promote economy and efficiency within the agency, but also to detect, eradicate and prevent fraud, waste and abuse. I am also to ensure that the agency is operating in compliance with generally established policies and procedures of the government. In the semi-annual investigation just completed, I found issues with the Train Maintenance Division of the NCPR, which employs 7,000 workers and is responsible for keeping the trains safe and operational. The issue are unexpected delays it takes 30 percent longer to secure replacement parts and mechanics are left idle and unproductive for that time. In this situation, my role would be to identify the root of the delays, discover potential fraud, waste or abuse, and work with the NCPR to correct the issue. Ultimately, my job would be to help NRPC uphold its own mission of high-quality service and safety and to better serve its customers. And, this is exactly my responsibility to uphold going forward.

Character Analysis of Basil Hallward in The Picture of Dorian Gray, a Novel by Oscar Wilde Essay

The main character in The Picture of Dorian Gray, Dorian, is a man too easily influenced by his surroundings. He is quoted as saying, Basil Hallward is what I think I am Lord Henry is what the world thinks me Dorian is what I would like to bein other ages, perhaps (Wilde). This comparison falls in line with the moral of the story because Dorian is stuck with eternal youth and beauty even though he has a wicked soul. This causes different views of him by people who observe his daily life. Dorian is a sponge throughout the novel that absorbs everything and allows it to shape his personality, morals, and actions. Dorian Gray takes influence from Lord Henry, Basil Hallward, and the culture of society during which the novel was written. Lord Henry is the epitome of a wealthy, hedonistic gentleman seeking only pleasure, with little regard to cost or consequence. Lord Henry Wotton outwardly propounds hedonism, but it is his extreme egotism that drives him to manipulate both Basil Hallward a

Religious Symbolism in The Blessed Damozel, a Poem by Dante Gabriel Rossetti Essay

Dante Gabriel Rossettis poem The Blessed Damozel is full of religious symbolism. There is talk of saints, and the poem itself takes place in heaven. But underneath the religious symbolism is a deep sensuality, that makes one wonder if the white rose of Marys gift referred to in line nine is the gift of Mary the Virgin, or the somewhat less virginal Mary Magdalene.

An Analysis of the Character of Chichikov in the Poem, Dead Souls by Nikolai Gogol Essay

Dead Souls takes place in the Russia of the late 1800s, where, unlike in America, one must be born into a prosperous family in order to have opportunities. The main character, Chichikov, is clever enough to develop a scheme in which he can rise from being a petty clerk to a respected landowner. In order to do this, Chichikov moves into a new town, pretending to already be a landowner, and begins a quest to buy the names of dead serfs who have not yet been officially reported dead. Each person that Chichkov presents this offer to has a different reaction, starting with the shy and introverted Manilov. Though he does not understand Chichikov's need for the names of these dead serfs, Manilov is a character that is so desperate for company that it does not take any effort to trick him into selling his dead souls cheaply. However, as Chichikov continues his journey, he starts to deal with more clever landowners who become suspicious of his scheme. Chichikov finds that the townsmen know
