The HOPE for Alzheimer’s Act (S. 857 /H.R. 1559): Passage of this bill would provide comprehensive care planning services—for both the individual and his/her caregiver— following a dementia diagnosis. Michael Splaine, a long-time advocate and principal of Splaine Consulting, a healthcare policy firm that specializes in Alzheimer’s issues External link disclaimer , is optimistic about the HOPE Act—as the bill is supported by nearly half of the Senate and boasts over 200 House co-sponsors. The National Alzheimer’s Plan is essentially a call to public preparedness for addressing Alzheimer’s, with Goal 3 of the Plan focused on caregiver support. Many advocates are voicing the need for state Alzheimer’s plans too. The Alzheimer’s Caregiver Support Act (H.R. 3090 External link disclaimer ) will provide grants to public and non-profit organiz.

The document discusses strategies to reduce Indigenous suicide rates in the Kimberley region of Western Australia. It begins with an introduction and background on the high rates of Indigenous suicide. It then outlines a community needs assessment conducted in the Shire of Halls Creek to identify underlying issues. Three key issues were identified: mental health, trust issues between Indigenous and non-Indigenous groups, and loss of connection to Indigenous cultural identity. The document proposes a health promotion program plan following the Ottawa Charter to address these issues through various strategies and actions aimed at reducing Indigenous suicide in the region.
Dementia Care at the End of Life
This document provides information about dementia care at the end of life. It begins by defining common causes of dementia like Alzheimer's disease and vascular dementia. It then discusses the natural progression of dementia and common complications that contribute to death, such as pneumonia, falls, and malnutrition. The document emphasizes that hospice can improve outcomes for dementia patients by providing better care and support at the end of life compared to traditional medical care alone.
Dementia Course Week 1
This document provides an overview of dementia and the role of speech language pathologists. It discusses that dementia is an acquired brain disease that affects cognition. SLPs play an important role on interdisciplinary teams by screening, assessing, treating cognitive and communication impairments, and educating other professionals. SLPs can help identify when further evaluation is needed and discuss changes with physicians. The document also reviews risk factors for dementia and evidence-based interventions that can help prevent or delay cognitive decline.

The document analyzes Australia's economic policies for healthcare and aged care services. It discusses key health issues for older Australians like burden of disease, dementia, and disabilities. While life expectancy is rising, chronic conditions are increasing. Current policies are improving services but issues remain. Future economic policies will need to address rising costs and demands from an aging population to ensure quality care. New technologies may help support older Australians' health needs if adequate policies are implemented.Core 1 Presentation CQ1
The Australian government identifies national health priorities based on several key principles:
1. Principles of social justice - including supporting vulnerable groups and allocating resources fairly.
2. Prevalence and burden of health conditions - considering conditions that affect many people or have high costs.
3. Potential for prevention and early intervention - targeting modifiable risk factors and improving health behaviors.
4. Cost to individuals and communities - both the financial and non-financial impacts of diseases.
Priority groups identified include Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders, those in rural/remote areas, and low socioeconomic groups experiencing health inequities. Data on disease rates, mortality, and morbidity help determine the most significant health issues facing Australia.

The biomedical focus on dementia brought the phenomena of what was considered a normal part of ageing into the medical and scientific field of interest (Bartlett, R and O’Connor, D. 2010). This perspective comes with a strong focus on neurodegenerative decline and deficits. Even though Alzheimer’s disease was around for more than 70 years since noted by Alois Alzheimer, it was only in the 1980’s that the “disease emerged as an illness category and policy issue” (Lyman, A. 1989). The Nun Study of David A. Snowdon, PhD, which started in 1991, brought a new perspective to the research into dementia. It was discovered during autopsies that people who have lived their lives without any signs of dementia, actually had amyloid plaques and tangles in their brains congruent to people living with dementia (Snowdon, D.A. 2003). Biomedical research is at this stage the primary focus of research into dementia, receiving most of the funding budget. According to an article in Therapy Today (July 2012) in the UK alone, £66 million will be allocated to dementia research by 2015, of which only £13 million is earmarked for social science research. In the WHO report on Dementia, Daviglus M.L. et al of the US National Institutes of Health state that “firm conclusions cannot be drawn about the association of any modifiable risk factor with cognitive decline of Alzheimer disease”.
The importance of the research findings of the biomedical model cannot be underestimated. However, considering the facts that t this point there seems to be nothing that can prevent nor cure Dementia, I am of the opinion that more research and funding should focused on creating a life worth living for people who live with dementia.

Reform of Services and Finances for Adults with Autism
The author is concerned about the future support needs of children with moderate to severe autism as they become adults. Recent statistics indicate that the population of adults with autism will greatly increase in coming years, straining resources and funding for necessary services like housing, employment assistance, transportation and healthcare. Several agencies will be impacted by this rise, including Medicaid, vocational rehabilitation programs and Social Security. Better funding and preparation is needed for effective adult programs and services to support this growing population with autism.

About Dementia and Alzheimer’s disease
Dementia is characterized by the declining of cognitive functioning. The thinking, memory, and reasoning capabilities of a person with dementia is influenced to a point that interferes with their ability to do their daily activities (Alzheimer’s Association, 2016). The dementia itself is not an illness it is the most prevailing symptom of Alzheimer’s. Alzheimer’s disease is the cause of between 60% and 80% of all dementia cases (Alzheimer’s Association, 2016). There are various other factors that can lead to a demented state such as severe mental illness such as depression, delirium, dehydration, chronic alcoholism, some brain tumors and illnesses, or even Vitamin B12 deficiency (Ridley, Draper & Withall, 2013; Rossor et al., 2010). The reason for selecting dementias and Alzheimer’s disease is because these are associated with much other comorbidity which can easily affect a patient when not properly taken care of. Individuals with dementia are three times more prone to be hospitalized for preventable reasons. The loss of cognitive functioning makes the patients of dementia and Alzheimer’s to be dependent on others to do even the simplest of daily tasks. This makes coping with these conditions hard not only for the patients but also for their caregivers, family, support groups, and peers. Therefore, it is important to develop a good care plan for such patients to cater for their psychosocial needs as well as their biomedical needs.
Morbidity and Comorbidity of Dementia and Alzheimer’s disease
Other form of dementia and Alzheimer’s are leading cause of disability in America. In 2014 Alzheimer was one of the principles causes of mortality in the United States. Based on the death certificate data, Alzheimer’s is the 6th leading cause of mortality for adults aged 18 and older (HealthyPeople2020, nd). This illness is mainly common among the elderly population aged 65 and older. As of 2016, the prevalence of this disease in this population group was 11%, which are approximately 5.2 million people. Around 4% of all deaths in 2014 were Alzheimer’s related (HealthyPeople2020, nd). The percentage of Alzheimer’s disease-related deaths has increased significantly, partly because of the increased elderly population. The death rate due to Alzheimer’s has increased by 55% since 1999 (HealthyPeople2020, nd).
Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia are commonly associated with other physical and psychiatric comorbidities. Some of the common psychiatric comorbidities associated with dementia and Alzheimer’s include depression, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia (Garcez et al., 2015). They have also been associated with other non-psychiatric illn.
Alzheimer’S Disease Powerpoint Perng Wendy
The document summarizes Alzheimer's disease. It discusses how AD involves shrinkage of brain tissue and deposits of tau proteins. Symptoms include changes in behavior and problems with memory. While aging is a risk factor, other factors may also play a role. Family caregivers take on a significant responsibility as the disease progresses. Managing AD care is challenging and often requires caregivers to sacrifice their jobs and free time.

The above report focuses on public health and the impacts the Alzheimer’s diseases (AD), it includes all the incidences and the prevailing mortality rates. It also covers cost incurred for caring and also the effect felt by the care givers and the society at large. This report focuses the issues encountered by the health care providers as they try to disclose the AD diagnosis to the patients as well as the care givers. Approximately 5.29 million Americans are diagnosed with AD; 200,000 have an average of below 65 years and 5.1 million are about 65 years. In the U.S. someone will develop AD after every 67 seconds. The expectations are that by 2050, AD will develop after every 33 seconds which will result to nearly a million cases per year. Ad is the sixth leading cause of death in the U.S. disclosure of the AD is usually too hard for the health specialists. Improvement of the disclosure process is suppose.

The document discusses issues with the current industrial agriculture system, including environmental degradation and negative health impacts on consumers. It presents urban farming and organic food production as solutions. Two books explore these solutions, with one examining urban farming in major cities to address sustainability challenges. The other looks at renegade organic farmers in the Midwest working to rebuild the local food system. Both seek alternatives to the large-scale, profit-focused industrial agriculture model that prioritizes yields and costs over consumer and environmental health.

Deaths from Alzheimer's disease, dementia and senility in England
09 November 2010 - National End of Life Care Intelligence Network (NEoLCIN)
Between 2001 and 2009, there were 631,078 deaths (approximately 15% of all deaths recorded in England over the same period) for which one or more of Alzheimer's disease, dementia, senility were mentioned on death certificates.
The analyses in this report are based on deaths of people who were usually resident in England died with Alzheimer's disease, dementia or senility recorded on their death certificates.
The trend analyses are based on deaths registered in the years 2001 to 2009.
The demographic profiles and cause of death analyses are based on deaths registered from 2007 to 2009.
Alzheimer’s Disease
Alzheimer's disease poses significant management challenges and financial burdens. It is a progressive brain disorder that currently afflicts over 5 million Americans, with projected rates increasing to over 16 million by 2050. Total annual costs of care exceed $100 billion currently. While there is no cure, addressing preventable risk factors like hypertension through lifestyle changes may help delay or prevent the onset of Alzheimer's disease, potentially reducing healthcare costs. Non-invasive screening methods can help detect risks early. Further research on interventions like dementia care mapping shows promise for improving patient outcomes while maintaining cost neutrality.

Introduction
Alzheimer's disease tends to be a progressive, irreversible ailment that impacts the normal functioning of the brain slowly destroying the thinking and memory-related skills and as it progresses it limits the patient the ability to conduct simple tasks ("What Is Alzheimer's Disease?," 2020). Researchers suggest that approximately 6 million American citizens older than 65 years of age have dementia which is caused by Alzheimer's disease. In most patients, the symptoms of this condition begin to be identified when they are in their mid- the 60s. This condition is often ranked as one of the top ten causes of death in the United States, but following a recent investigation, the condition has climbed the ladder and it is currently ranked as the top five leading cause of death in the United States. Often the disease is categorized with cancer and heart disease as the main cause of death among the older population. This paper will focus on planning research that is focused on understanding Alzheimer's disease, its causes symptoms and its impact on the older population.
Problem identification
Alzheimer's disease tends to be the most common cause of dementia among the older population around the world. The condition impacts the normal functioning of the brain hence causing the loss of cognitive functioning such as reasoning, remembering and thinking. Also, it impacts behavioral abilities to the extent of the victim not being able to conduct various daily essential activities ("What Is Alzheimer's Disease?," 2020). The severity of the brain damage from the mildest stage where the normal function of a person is impact and it progresses to a most severe stage and the victim must be dependent on the people around him or her for basic activities related to daily living. The condition is most popular among the older population and its estimated that the condition has impacted about 6 million senior American citizens' normal function and also it is a leading cause of death among this population ("Alzheimer's Disease Fact Sheet," 2020).
Significance of the Problem to Nursing
With a significant population estimated to be victims of Alzheimer's disease in the United States, it is most likely that individuals in the nursing practice will encounter patients suffering from this condition either in their personal lives on in their careers. Thus, it is essential for the nurses to be able to understand and recognize the Alzheimer's Disease symptoms, treatment approaches, and options as well as learn how to effectively interact with this vulnerable population ("Update on Alzheimer’s: What Nurses Should Know," 2020).

Research Paper Conceptual Document:
“The Meaning of July Fourth for the Negro” by Frederick Douglas
1. What is the event or rhetorical moment I will be analyzing and why. Give a brief summary.
· I will be analyzing a speech by Fredrick Douglas that he gave on July 5th in 1852 called, “The Meaning of July Fourth for the Negro”. I chose this speech because I first read this speech this past spring semester in my gender studies class and it was so well written and worded that it literally just brought me to tears with so much emotion behind it.

Deforestation
The Amazon forest alone creates 20% of the worlds oxygen. It has decreased by 17% in the past 50 years because of deforestation (conserve-energy-future.com). Forest’s in general only cover 30% of the world (conserve-energy-future.com ). Deforestation is killing the trees that produce oxygen, without it humans can’t survive. Deforestation should be prohibited because large plants such as trees recycle air.
If deforestation is such a problem, why does it happen? Deforestation extracts the forest of its resources. It turns the forests into farms, ranches, or urban areas. The wood from trees are used for building or could be sold as fuel. Another big cause of deforestation is quarry’s. Quarry’s take up a lot of land, and once the quarry is abandoned is almost impossible to fix. Hydropower requires dams to be built. Dams create an enormous amount of flooding, which kills thousands of trees. The increase of population is also a cause of deforestation. The more people that are on earth the more land and resources we demand.
If deforestation continues it will have a huge negative impact on our air supply. Everyday a piece of the forests is being destroyed. The more trees that are being destroyed the less oxygen can be produced. Trees use photosynthesis to covert carbon dioxide into oxygen. Photosynthesis is the main producer of oxygen, and respiration and decay remove it. Urban areas have less oxygen then rural areas, because they don’t have many plants. Throughout history oxygen levels have been steadily decreasing. Once the oxygen levels hit 7% the air is too low to support human life (thenaturalhealthplace.com). Finding ways to apply reforestation would help increase oxygen.
There are many ways to apply reforestation to reverse the harm that’s been don’t to the world. One way is to plant trees. There are some cities who have made vertical forests. They plant trees and plants that surround the building. Going paperless would help as well. Since technology has advanced, paper isn’t really needed as often. Recycling and buying recycled products will help as well. The more that people recycle there will be less demand for natural resources and trees. Reforestation will help to reduce the concentration of carbon dioxide in the air.
Deforestation does have a huge negative impact on our world, but there are quite of bit of positive too. The positive effects of deforestation are that it does gives humans space to grow. With growth comes civilizations which means more jobs and revenue. Deforestations also gives us more food and resources to satisfy our needs. It means a more comfortable life for humans. The consequences of deforestation is not worth the temporary comfort that humans get from it.
Deforestation is a serious problem to maintain life on this planet. The decrease in oxygen could eventually mean the end to human kind. If we don’t do anything abo.

Question 1 [14 marks]
Financial statement disclosures
You are the financial accountant for Superstore Ltd, and are in the process of preparing its financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2018. Whilst preparing the financial statements, you become aware of the following situations:
1. On 1 July 2017, the directors made a decision, using information obtained over the last couple of years, to revise the useful life of an item of manufacturing equipment. The equipment was acquired on 1 July 2015 for $800,000, and has been depreciated on a straight-line basis, based on an estimated useful life of 10 years and residual value of nil. Superstore Ltd uses the cost model for manufacturing equipment. The directors estimate that as at 1 July 2017, the equipment has a remaining useful life of 6 years and a residual value of nil. No depreciation has been recorded as yet for the year ended 30 June 2018 as the directors were unsure how to account for the change in the 2018 financial statements, and unsure whether the 2016 and 2017 financial statements will need to be revised as a result of the change.
2. In June 2018, the accounts payable officer discovered that an invoice for repairs to equipment, with an amount due of $20,000, incurred in June 2017, had not been paid or provided for in the 2017 financial statements. The invoice was paid on 12 July 2018. The repairs are deductible for tax purposes. The accountant responsible for preparing the company’s income tax returns will amend the 2017 tax return, and the company will receive a tax refund of $6,000 as a result (30% x $20,000). No journal entries have been done as yet in the accounting records of Superstore Ltd, as the directors are unsure how to account for this situation, and what period adjustments need to be made in.
3. Superstore Ltd holds shares in a listed public company, ABC Ltd, which are valued in the draft financial statements on 30 June 2018 at their market value on that date - $600,000. A major fall in the stock market occurred on 10 July 2018, and the value of Superstore’s shares in ABC Ltd declined to $250,000.
4. On 21 July 2018, you discovered a cheque dated 20 April 2018 of $32,000 authorised by the company’s previous accountant, Max. The payment was for the purchase of a swimming pool at Max’s house. The payment had been recorded in the accounting system as an advertising expense. You advise the directors of this fraudulent activity, and they will investigate.
Assume that each event is material.
Required:
i) State the appropriate accounting treatment for each situation. Provide explanations and references to relevant paragraphs in the accounting standards to support your answers. Where adjustments to Superstore Ltd’s financial statements are required, explain which financial statements need to be adjusted (ie. 2016, 2017, 2018 or 2019).
ii) Prepare any note disclosures and adjusting j.

1) The play Anna in the Tropics explores the impact of literature on a family of Cuban cigar rollers in 1920s Florida. As their new lector reads Tolstoy's Anna Karenina aloud each day, the characters find their lives profoundly changed as themes like tradition vs modernity, gender roles, infidelity, and jealousy are awakened.
2) The play illustrates the machismo of Cuban culture, where men's affairs are accepted but women are punished for the same behavior. This double standard leads to tensions and tragedy as the characters emulate the scandals in the novel.
3) Ultimately, the lector's reading of Anna Karenina arouses passions that cannot be contained, as jealousies
All models are wrong. Some models are useful.—George E. P. B.docx
All models are wrong. Some models are useful.
—George E. P. Box (1919–2013)
Statistician
Describing and explaining social phenomena is a complex task. Box’s quote speaks to the point that it is a near impossible undertaking to fully explain such systems—physical or social—using a set of models. Yet even though these models contain some error, the models nevertheless assist with illuminating how the world works and advancing social change.
The competent quantitative researcher understands the balance between making statements related to theoretical understanding of relationships and recognizing that our social systems are of such complexity that we will always have some error. The key, for the rigorous researcher, is recognizing and mitigating the error as much as possible.
As a graduate student and consumer of research, you must recognize the error that might be present within your research and the research of others.
To prepare for this Discussion:
Use the Walden Library Course Guide and Assignment Help found in this week’s Learning Resources to search for and select a quantitative article that interests you and that has social change implications.
As you read the article, reflect on George Box’s quote in the introduction for this Discussion.

Treatment of Dementias, Including Alzheimer’s disease
About Dementia and Alzheimer’s disease
Dementia is characterized by the declining of cognitive functioning. The thinking, memory, and reasoning capabilities of a person with dementia is influenced to a point that interferes with their ability to do their daily activities (Alzheimer’s Association, 2016). The dementia itself is not an illness it is the most prevailing symptom of Alzheimer’s. Alzheimer’s disease is the cause of between 60% and 80% of all dementia cases (Alzheimer’s Association, 2016). There are various other factors that can lead to a demented state such as severe mental illness such as depression, delirium, dehydration, chronic alcoholism, some brain tumors and illnesses, or even Vitamin B12 deficiency (Ridley, Draper & Withall, 2013; Rossor et al., 2010). The reason for selecting dementias and Alzheimer’s disease is because these are associated with much other comorbidity which can easily affect a patient when not properly taken care of. Individuals with dementia are three times more prone to be hospitalized for preventable reasons. The loss of cognitive functioning makes the patients of dementia and Alzheimer’s to be dependent on others to do even the simplest of daily tasks. This makes coping with these conditions hard not only for the patients but also for their caregivers, family, support groups, and peers. Therefore, it is important to develop a good care plan for such patients to cater for their psychosocial needs as well as their biomedical needs.
Morbidity and Comorbidity of Dementia and Alzheimer’s disease
Other form of dementia and Alzheimer’s are leading cause of disability in America. In 2014 Alzheimer was one of the principles causes of mortality in the United States. Based on the death certificate data, Alzheimer’s is the 6th leading cause of mortality for adults aged 18 and older (HealthyPeople2020, nd). This illness is mainly common among the elderly population aged 65 and older. As of 2016, the prevalence of this disease in this population group was 11%, which are approximately 5.2 million people. Around 4% of all deaths in 2014 were Alzheimer’s related (HealthyPeople2020, nd). The percentage of Alzheimer’s disease-related deaths has increased significantly, partly because of the increased elderly population. The death rate due to Alzheimer’s has increased by 55% since 1999 (HealthyPeople2020, nd).
Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia are commonly associated with other physical and psychiatric comorbidities. Some of the common psychiatric comorbidities associated with dementia and Alzheimer’s include depression, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia (Garcez et al., 2015). They have also been associated with other non-psychiatric illn.

The document summarizes Alzheimer's disease. It discusses how AD involves shrinkage of brain tissue and deposits of tau proteins. Symptoms include changes in behavior and problems with memory. While aging is a risk factor, other factors may also play a role. Family caregivers take on a significant responsibility as the disease progresses. Managing AD care is challenging and often requires caregivers to sacrifice their jobs and free time.

This document discusses disease surveillance research. It explains that disease surveillance involves the ongoing collection, analysis, interpretation, and dissemination of health data to monitor disease trends and improve public health. A reductionist approach looks at isolating variables to find cause-and-effect relationships, while a complex systems approach considers adaptive and multilevel systems in context. The document also discusses the roles and competencies needed for nurses to participate in surveillance and investigation activities.

The above report focuses on public health and the impacts the Alzheimer’s diseases (AD), it includes all the incidences and the prevailing mortality rates. It also covers cost incurred for caring and also the effect felt by the care givers and the society at large. This report focuses the issues encountered by the health care providers as they try to disclose the AD diagnosis to the patients as well as the care givers. Approximately 5.29 million Americans are diagnosed with AD; 200,000 have an average of below 65 years and 5.1 million are about 65 years. In the U.S. someone will develop AD after every 67 seconds. The expectations are that by 2050, AD will develop after every 33 seconds which will result to nearly a million cases per year. Ad is the sixth leading cause of death in the U.S. disclosure of the AD is usually too hard for the health specialists. Improvement of the disclosure process is suppose.

The analyses in this report are based on deaths of people who were usually resident in England died with Alzheimer's disease, dementia or senility recorded on their death certificates.
The trend analyses are based on deaths registered in the years 2001 to 2009.
The demographic profiles and cause of death analyses are based on deaths registered from 2007 to 2009.
Alzheimer’s Disease
Alzheimer's disease poses significant management challenges and financial burdens. It is a progressive brain disorder that currently afflicts over 5 million Americans, with projected rates increasing to over 16 million by 2050. Total annual costs of care exceed $100 billion currently. While there is no cure, addressing preventable risk factors like hypertension through lifestyle changes may help delay or prevent the onset of Alzheimer's disease, potentially reducing healthcare costs. Non-invasive screening methods can help detect risks early. Further research on interventions like dementia care mapping shows promise for improving patient outcomes while maintaining cost neutrality.

Introduction
Alzheimer's disease tends to be a progressive, irreversible ailment that impacts the normal functioning of the brain slowly destroying the thinking and memory-related skills and as it progresses it limits the patient the ability to conduct simple tasks ("What Is Alzheimer's Disease?," 2020). Researchers suggest that approximately 6 million American citizens older than 65 years of age have dementia which is caused by Alzheimer's disease. In most patients, the symptoms of this condition begin to be identified when they are in their mid- the 60s. This condition is often ranked as one of the top ten causes of death in the United States, but following a recent investigation, the condition has climbed the ladder and it is currently ranked as the top five leading cause of death in the United States. Often the disease is categorized with cancer and heart disease as the main cause of death among the older population. This paper will focus on planning research that is focused on understanding Alzheimer's disease, its causes symptoms and its impact on the older population.
Problem identification
Alzheimer's disease tends to be the most common cause of dementia among the older population around the world. The condition impacts the normal functioning of the brain hence causing the loss of cognitive functioning such as reasoning, remembering and thinking. Also, it impacts behavioral abilities to the extent of the victim not being able to conduct various daily essential activities ("What Is Alzheimer's Disease?," 2020). The severity of the brain damage from the mildest stage where the normal function of a person is impact and it progresses to a most severe stage and the victim must be dependent on the people around him or her for basic activities related to daily living. The condition is most popular among the older population and its estimated that the condition has impacted about 6 million senior American citizens' normal function and also it is a leading cause of death among this population ("Alzheimer's Disease Fact Sheet," 2020).
Significance of the Problem to Nursing
With a significant population estimated to be victims of Alzheimer's disease in the United States, it is most likely that individuals in the nursing practice will encounter patients suffering from this condition either in their personal lives on in their careers. Thus, it is essential for the nurses to be able to understand and recognize the Alzheimer's Disease symptoms, treatment approaches, and options as well as learn how to effectively interact with this vulnerable population ("Update on Alzheimer’s: What Nurses Should Know," 2020).

Deforestation
The Amazon forest alone creates 20% of the worlds oxygen. It has decreased by 17% in the past 50 years because of deforestation (conserve-energy-future.com). Forest’s in general only cover 30% of the world (conserve-energy-future.com ). Deforestation is killing the trees that produce oxygen, without it humans can’t survive. Deforestation should be prohibited because large plants such as trees recycle air.
If deforestation is such a problem, why does it happen? Deforestation extracts the forest of its resources. It turns the forests into farms, ranches, or urban areas. The wood from trees are used for building or could be sold as fuel. Another big cause of deforestation is quarry’s. Quarry’s take up a lot of land, and once the quarry is abandoned is almost impossible to fix. Hydropower requires dams to be built. Dams create an enormous amount of flooding, which kills thousands of trees. The increase of population is also a cause of deforestation. The more people that are on earth the more land and resources we demand.
If deforestation continues it will have a huge negative impact on our air supply. Everyday a piece of the forests is being destroyed. The more trees that are being destroyed the less oxygen can be produced. Trees use photosynthesis to covert carbon dioxide into oxygen. Photosynthesis is the main producer of oxygen, and respiration and decay remove it. Urban areas have less oxygen then rural areas, because they don’t have many plants. Throughout history oxygen levels have been steadily decreasing. Once the oxygen levels hit 7% the air is too low to support human life (thenaturalhealthplace.com). Finding ways to apply reforestation would help increase oxygen.
There are many ways to apply reforestation to reverse the harm that’s been don’t to the world. One way is to plant trees. There are some cities who have made vertical forests. They plant trees and plants that surround the building. Going paperless would help as well. Since technology has advanced, paper isn’t really needed as often. Recycling and buying recycled products will help as well. The more that people recycle there will be less demand for natural resources and trees. Reforestation will help to reduce the concentration of carbon dioxide in the air.
Deforestation does have a huge negative impact on our world, but there are quite of bit of positive too. The positive effects of deforestation are that it does gives humans space to grow. With growth comes civilizations which means more jobs and revenue. Deforestations also gives us more food and resources to satisfy our needs. It means a more comfortable life for humans. The consequences of deforestation is not worth the temporary comfort that humans get from it.
Deforestation is a serious problem to maintain life on this planet. The decrease in oxygen could eventually mean the end to human kind. If we don’t do anything abo.

Question 1 [14 marks]
Financial statement disclosures
You are the financial accountant for Superstore Ltd, and are in the process of preparing its financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2018. Whilst preparing the financial statements, you become aware of the following situations:
1. On 1 July 2017, the directors made a decision, using information obtained over the last couple of years, to revise the useful life of an item of manufacturing equipment. The equipment was acquired on 1 July 2015 for $800,000, and has been depreciated on a straight-line basis, based on an estimated useful life of 10 years and residual value of nil. Superstore Ltd uses the cost model for manufacturing equipment. The directors estimate that as at 1 July 2017, the equipment has a remaining useful life of 6 years and a residual value of nil. No depreciation has been recorded as yet for the year ended 30 June 2018 as the directors were unsure how to account for the change in the 2018 financial statements, and unsure whether the 2016 and 2017 financial statements will need to be revised as a result of the change.
2. In June 2018, the accounts payable officer discovered that an invoice for repairs to equipment, with an amount due of $20,000, incurred in June 2017, had not been paid or provided for in the 2017 financial statements. The invoice was paid on 12 July 2018. The repairs are deductible for tax purposes. The accountant responsible for preparing the company’s income tax returns will amend the 2017 tax return, and the company will receive a tax refund of $6,000 as a result (30% x $20,000). No journal entries have been done as yet in the accounting records of Superstore Ltd, as the directors are unsure how to account for this situation, and what period adjustments need to be made in.
3. Superstore Ltd holds shares in a listed public company, ABC Ltd, which are valued in the draft financial statements on 30 June 2018 at their market value on that date - $600,000. A major fall in the stock market occurred on 10 July 2018, and the value of Superstore’s shares in ABC Ltd declined to $250,000.
4. On 21 July 2018, you discovered a cheque dated 20 April 2018 of $32,000 authorised by the company’s previous accountant, Max. The payment was for the purchase of a swimming pool at Max’s house. The payment had been recorded in the accounting system as an advertising expense. You advise the directors of this fraudulent activity, and they will investigate.
Assume that each event is material.
Required:
i) State the appropriate accounting treatment for each situation. Provide explanations and references to relevant paragraphs in the accounting standards to support your answers. Where adjustments to Superstore Ltd’s financial statements are required, explain which financial statements need to be adjusted (ie. 2016, 2017, 2018 or 2019).
ii) Prepare any note disclosures and adjusting j.

1) The play Anna in the Tropics explores the impact of literature on a family of Cuban cigar rollers in 1920s Florida. As their new lector reads Tolstoy's Anna Karenina aloud each day, the characters find their lives profoundly changed as themes like tradition vs modernity, gender roles, infidelity, and jealousy are awakened.
2) The play illustrates the machismo of Cuban culture, where men's affairs are accepted but women are punished for the same behavior. This double standard leads to tensions and tragedy as the characters emulate the scandals in the novel.
3) Ultimately, the lector's reading of Anna Karenina arouses passions that cannot be contained, as jealousies
All models are wrong. Some models are useful.—George E. P. B.docx
All models are wrong. Some models are useful.
—George E. P. Box (1919–2013)
Statistician
Describing and explaining social phenomena is a complex task. Box’s quote speaks to the point that it is a near impossible undertaking to fully explain such systems—physical or social—using a set of models. Yet even though these models contain some error, the models nevertheless assist with illuminating how the world works and advancing social change.
The competent quantitative researcher understands the balance between making statements related to theoretical understanding of relationships and recognizing that our social systems are of such complexity that we will always have some error. The key, for the rigorous researcher, is recognizing and mitigating the error as much as possible.
As a graduate student and consumer of research, you must recognize the error that might be present within your research and the research of others.
To prepare for this Discussion:
Use the Walden Library Course Guide and Assignment Help found in this week’s Learning Resources to search for and select a quantitative article that interests you and that has social change implications.
As you read the article, reflect on George Box’s quote in the introduction for this Discussion.
For additional support, review the

This document summarizes a paper about the political and economic crisis in Greece. It discusses how Greece's political system has been dominated by two major parties, New Democracy and PASOK, which used patronage networks and expanded the public sector for political gain. This led to a bloated bureaucracy, weak reforms, and increasing debt. The economic crisis made Greece's long-term problems with its political system and public finances come to a head. The document examines the causes and management of the crisis as well as its political impacts.

Legacy of Juniper Utility has residents stewing
By Erin Foote Marlowe
·
·
Last Friday, a collection of men and women sat in Marion Palmateer's plush Southeast Bend living room and told a story of frustration, talking over one another and becoming increasingly angry about their understanding of the legacy of Juniper Utility and what it means to them.
These folks who gathered on Palmateer's soft white couch and chairs consider themselves the modern-day victims in the more- than-a-decade-old saga of Juniper Utility Co., a water service provider formerly owned by housing developer Jan Ward in Southeast Bend. In 2002, it was condemned by Bend for what the city said was risk of catastrophic failure.
Money and "authority" are at the core of the story now for this group, as opposed to the low water pressures of a decade ago—a problem that became so egregious that, by 2001, it became a challenge to take a shower or fill a washing machine. Water lines routinely broke down.
The people in Palmateer's living room, "a loose collection of individuals," as they call themselves, are residents of neighborhoods formerly served by Juniper Utility, including Timber Ridge, Mountain High, Tillicum Village and Nottingham Square. They are frustrated with a history they felt they had no control over but is now costing them in water bills they believe will cost them thousands more per year than they ever expected.
In 2004, homeowners association representatives from their neighborhoods signed an agreement with the city that said the owners of the roughly 700 homes of the neighborhoods would pay 100 percent of the costs associated with providing water to the neighborhoods, including making improvements to the system.
But this group of residents feels the agreement wasn't in their best interest and they had no say in the decision. An HOA board member at the time said a ballot was not sent out to homeowners for approval and, because there was no vote of homeowners, these frustrated residents believe this 2004 agreement could be illegal. Further underscoring the issue, it appears the agreement was never recorded with the county clerk's office. So, when these new people bought houses in these neighborhoods, the tab for paying to upgrade the water system didn't show up in their title searches.
"Think of the banks that lent against it," said Dan Kehoe, a resident of Mountain High who has taken a lead role in challenging the agreements between the HOAs and the city. "That's called bank fraud and people go to jail for it."
But although frustrations over this agreement are evidently fresh for these residents, it would appear that the issue should be moot because in 2011 the HOAs and the city reached a new agreement—one that should reduce costs for residents.
"We moved them from a bad agreement to a good agreement," said city of Bend Finance Director Sonia Andrews. "From something that would cost them a lot to something that would be more reasonable."

The event industry is navigating through the strongest wave of change of
the past 10 years. Never before has this industry experienced this level
of transformation in so many aspects of the event planning process.
Attendees, suppliers and event planners have to deal with ‘new’ and
‘different’ on many levels.
As a segue from last year’s report, we are again looking at the five major
areas impacted by this change:
G TECHNOLOGY
G EVENT MARKETING
G VENUES
G DESTINATIONS
G EVENT DESIGN
We are also looking at two new categories of trends:
G EVENT STYLING
G DESTINATION MANAGEMENT COMPANIES
(DMCS)
The spend for these items represent a massive input for the industry and we
feel times are mature enough to analyze developments on a yearly basis.

MACRO TRENDS AFFECTING THE
EVENT INDUSTRY. A FORECAST.
There are common themes you will find in the following categories of
trends. We refer to these as macro trends. They are inherent to the
economic, political, social and technological developments happening
around us. Here are the most significant affecting the event industry:
G Sexual Harassment. With the explosion worldwide of the #metoo
movement and the very public charges against many celebrities,
politicians and people of influence, it seems it is finally time for the event
industry to reflect on sexual harassment. Many reports have popped up
of events being at the ideal stage for harassment or violence to happen.
As a result there is increased pressure to step up the measures to protect
attendees against perpetrators. A mo.

Program Leadership and Governance
Leadership
The All of Us Research Program (AoURP) is a large collaborative initiative sponsored by the
National Institutes of Health (NIH). The research program functions as a consortium of awardees
from multiple institutions. Its governance involves representation from each awardee and
participant representatives. The consortium also includes the program director and project
scientists/specialists from NIH. Each awardee has responsibilities commensurate with expertise. See
Table 0–1: Program Unit Awardees for a list of NIH-funded awardees and contact Principal
Investigators (PIs).
Dr. Joshua Denny of Vanderbilt University Medical Center serves as the Principal Investigator on
behalf of the consortium.
Governance
The Steering Committee (SC) is the primary governing body of AoURP. The SC recommends
strategic directions for the program and oversees planning, coordination, and implementation of the
program’s overall operations. Its 50 voting members include PIs from each awardee as designated
in the notice of award; representation from NIH, comprising of the deputy director and chief
officers of AoURP; representation from community partners and participants (see section 3.1); and
additional representation as needed to ensure balanced representation of stakeholders. The
governance also includes an Executive Committee (EC) which is a small governing body composed
of 17 members, that ensures the program is effectively meeting its objectives and mission. The EC
proposes solutions to challenges and provides the Director with strategies, options, and information
to aid in programmatic decisions. The Director has discretion to delegate specific decisions to the
EC. Membership of the EC is determined by the Director and reflects the awardees within the
consortium with balanced interests to ensure effective deliberation.

Creating the ideal marketing plan requires many steps and gathering data. “Knowing the needs of the customer and having a clearly articulated mission will help to target the message to an audience who will be most interested in the service that is being provided” (Sciarra, Lynch, Adams, & Dorsey (2016) p. 340). To find these needs, a needs assessment can be done. After gathering the results, a plan can start to form. Creating a Strength, Weakness, Opportunities, and Threats chart (SWOT) will give you a broader view on how to target your population.
“The first step in conducting SWOT analysis is to identify your stakeholders and data that has already been collected” (Sciarra, (2016) p. 340). Your stakeholders will guide you into the right direction for a plan of action. Looking at the type of population including the children, families, and staff members will give you the data to create your SWOT. Moving forward with the data, now to breakdown your SWOT data analysis and create a marketing plan. Strengths; reviewing this section will give you an objective overview of any changes needing to be made. Strengths can consist of staff, location, cliental, and possibly opportunities. If there are areas of weakness this gives us the ability to make changes. Moving forward with those changes leads us to Weakness, do we see a pattern of areas? What can we do to upgrade or change these areas we have identified? Moving on next to Opportunities, what options do we have beyond what we have now? Is there room for growth both financially and structurally? Finally, Threats to evaluate. Are we looking at opening a facility next door to two other highly rated centers that may cause us competition and difficulty building a successful business? Is there a possibility that the area is losing population and economic strength? Gathering the data and taking a step back and reviewing all the pro’s and con’s will give us a bigger picture when deciding which way to market our audience.
Taking a look at the strengths from all the gathered data will give you a good direction to follow for reaching protentional public relations opportunities. For an example, location, your childcare facility has a prime location in your town and your coming up on your grand opening soon. Planning an.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

Alesix Tieku Topic Selection Dementia There are various types of Dementia i.e. Alzheimer’s disease, vascular dementia, dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), Huntington Disease, Parkinson Disease Dementia and mixed dementia and lots more. I will be focusing on Alzheimer’s Disease, causes and symptoms, treatment and diagnosis. Alzheimer's is a disease that robs people of their memory. At first, people have a hard time remembering recent events, though they might easily recall things that happened years ago. The HOPE for Alzheimer’s Act (S. 857 /H.R. 1559): Passage of this bill would provide comprehensive care planning services— for both the individual and his/her caregiver— following a dementia diagnosis. Michael Splaine, a long-time advocate and principal of Splaine Consulting, a healthcare policy firm that specializes in Alzheimer’s issues External link disclaimer , is optimistic about the HOPE Act—as the bill is supported by nearly half of the Senate and boasts over 200 House co- sponsors. The National Alzheimer’s Plan is essentially a call to public preparedness for addressing Alzheimer’s, with Goal 3 of the Plan focused on caregiver support. Many advocates are voicing the need for state Alzheimer’s plans too. The Alzheimer’s Caregiver Support Act (H.R. 3090 External link disclaimer ) will provide grants to public and non-profit organizations to expand and improve training and support services for families and caregivers of individuals with Alzheimer’s disease.
- 3. The RAISE Family Caregivers Act of 2015 (H.R. 3099/S.1719 External link disclaimer ) would facilitate the establishment of a national strategy to address the many issues facing caregivers today, including education and training, long-term services and supports, and financial stability and security.
