· How has this pandemic affected your perspective of food, social media, news, and/or critical thinking (such as evaluating sources/information)?
· In what way has the shift into online learning affected your perspective of education, access to technology, and/or social inequity?
How you answer the above questions (all, a few, or just one) is up to you. In other words, what you say and how you say it, as well as what medium you want to convey the reflection is entirely your choice. The story, nonfiction essay, poem, play, art – these are all viable options in creating your reflection. But more than anything else, reflect on the impact of COVID-19 in a personal way.

Summary
International Paper (IP), the world’s largest forest products
company, owns the Androscoggin Mill, a large pulp and paper
mill in Jay, Maine, in the nor theastern United States. This case
study describes the transformation of the Androscoggin Mill
from an object of public opprobrium and con�ict to a show-
case for environmental management. In the late 1980s, an 18-
month strike had embittered workers and townspeople and
left the mill’s reputation in tatters. In response to mill environ-
mental violations, some of which were considered crimes by
state regulators, the town of Jay passed its own environmental
ordinance to control mill emissions. Early in the 1990s, new
management, including two former corporate-level employ-
ees, sought to change the mill’s business approach and turn
the Androscoggin Mill into IP’s best environmental performer.
The initial emphasis on establishing and maintaining compli-
ance was expanded to include aggressive pollution prevention
effor ts that led to cooperative projects with the Maine De-
par tment of Environmental Protection, the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency, and stakeholder groups. The mill’s ap-
proach in the 1990s evolved further to essentially follow prin-
ciples of industrial ecology. New approaches focused on “clos-
ing the loop” by �nding bene�cial uses for previously land�lled
wastes, replacements for most hazardous chemicals, and re-
ductions in solid and hazardous waste generation. The mill also
pursued the establishment of symbiotic relationships with a
facility that began using a mill by-product on-site and an on-
site natural gas burning facility that provided par t of the mill’s
steam demand. IP also established a public advisory committee
in 1992 to advise management on operational and “big-
picture” issues, which later included the application of sustain-
ability criteria to the mill. IP has since formed community ad-
visory committees at each of their integrated pulp and paper
mills.

A
nursing care plan (NCP)
is a formal process that includes correctly identifying existing needs, as well as recognizing potential needs or risks. Care plans also provide a means of communication among nurses, their patients, and other healthcare providers to achieve health care outcomes.

Question 1. 1. What does Tom Regan say about the cruelty/kindness approach to animal ethics? (Points : 1)
The best way to explain animal ethics is in terms of our obligation to be kind and not cruel to animals

You have to be cruel to be kind, in the right measure
Question 2. 2. What does Peter Singer say about the history of liberation movements?
(Points : 1)

They tend to become wider in scope … with people learning to apply moral principles to groups previously not considered.

That they all say that animals should have rights too
That they come up with unjustified methods to include all humans while excluding all animals from moral consideration
That animals do not have rights because they are not as smart as humans are
Question 6. 6. Peter Singer’s “basic principles of equality” applied to animals means: (Points : 1)
Animals should be given all the same rights as human beings.
Animals are not entitled to not all the same rights but to an equal consideration of interests.
Animals should not be given the same moral consideration because they are do not have the same power to reason as humans.
Animals do not have rights unless they can demonstrate the same abilities as humans.

QUESTION 4
1. Russell compares his theory of universals with Plato’s (although Plato call them “ideas” or “forms”). Although both theories are about the common nature or essence shared by all things given the same name or that are of the same kind, they differ, according to Russell, in which of the following ways?

Plato’s theory of forms or universals is leads to a kind of mysticism while Russell’s theory of universals is grounded in logic.

Plato’s theory of forms or universals is about abstract ideas, not about something that actually exists in the real world, but Russell’s theory uses universals to refer to actual particular things that exist in time and space.

Summary
International Paper (IP), the world’s largest forest products
company, owns the Androscoggin Mill, a large pulp and paper
mill in Jay, Maine, in the nor theastern United States. This case
study describes the transformation of the Androscoggin Mill
from an object of public opprobrium and con�ict to a show-
case for environmental management. In the late 1980s, an 18-
month strike had embittered workers and townspeople and
left the mill’s reputation in tatters. In response to mill environ-
mental violations, some of which were considered crimes by
state regulators, the town of Jay passed its own environmental
ordinance to control mill emissions. Early in the 1990s, new
management, including two former corporate-level employ-
ees, sought to change the mill’s business approach and turn
the Androscoggin Mill into IP’s best environmental performer.
The initial emphasis on establishing and maintaining compli-
ance was expanded to include aggressive pollution prevention
effor ts that led to cooperative projects with the Maine De-
par tment of Environmental Protection, the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency, and stakeholder groups. The mill’s ap-
proach in the 1990s evolved further to essentially follow prin-
ciples of industrial ecology. New approaches focused on “clos-
ing the loop” by �nding bene�cial uses for previously land�lled
wastes, replacements for most hazardous chemicals, and re-
ductions in solid and hazardous waste generation. The mill also
pursued the establishment of symbiotic relationships with a
facility that began using a mill by-product on-site and an on-
site natural gas burning facility that provided par t of the mill’s
steam demand. IP also established a public advisory committee
in 1992 to advise management on operational and “big-
picture” issues, which later included the application of sustain-
ability criteria to the mill. IP has since formed community ad-
visory committees at each of their integrated pulp and paper
mills.

A
nursing care plan (NCP)
is a formal process that includes correctly identifying existing needs, as well as recognizing potential needs or risks. Care plans also provide a means of communication among nurses, their patients, and other healthcare providers to achieve health care outcomes. Without the nursing care planning process, quality and consistency in patient care would be lost.

A Look at the Marburg Fever Outbreaks
This week we will examine: Marburg Fever in Africa.
MARBURG VIRUS
The largest and deadliest outbreak of Marburg hemorrhagic fever on record occurred in 2005. The Ministry of Health (MOH) in Angola reported a total of 374 cases, including 329 deaths reported countrywide. The Angolan Government, WHO and other partners,
established a surveillance system for identification of suspected cases and follow up of their contacts. Mobile teams were sent to the field to investigate rumors, obtain clinical specimens for laboratory tests, hospitalize suspected patients and monitor their contacts
B. For the Marburg fever case, you will discuss the major obstacles and difficulties that public health officials and health care workers had in controlling the outbreak of Marburg fever and the solutions they found to these difficulties. Your response must also include the following:
1. What is Marburg hemorrhagic fever?
2. How is Marburg hemorrhagic fever prevented?
3. What needs to be done to address the threat of Marburg hemorrhagic fever?
Must be at least 250 words and supported by at least two references

A network consisting of M cities and M-1 roads connecting them is gi.docx
A network consisting of M cities and M-1 roads connecting them is given. Cities are labeled with distinct integers within the range [o. (M-1)] Roads connect cities in such a way that each pair of distinct cities is connected either by a direct road or along a path consisting of direct roads. There is exactly one way to reach any city from any other city. In other words, cities and direct roads form a tree. The number of direct roads that must be traversed is called the distance between these two cities. For example, consider the following network consisting of ten cities and nine roads: 2 0 Cities 2 and 4 are connected directly, so the distance between them is 1. Cities 4 and 7 are connected by a path consisting of the direct roads 4-0,0-9 and 9-7; hence the distance between them is 3. One of the cities is the capital, and the goal is to count the number of cities positioned away from it at each of the distances 1,2,3,.., M -1. If city number 1 is the capital, then the cities positioned at the various distances from the If city number 1 is the capital, then the cities positioned at the various distances from the capital would be as follows: . 9 is at a distance of 1 · 0, 3, 7 are at a distance of 2; 8,4 are at a distance of 3; 2, 5, 6 are at a distance of 4. Write a function: class
Solution
t public int[] solution(int[] T)h that, given a non-empty array T consisting of M integers describing a network of M cities and M 1 roads, returns an array consisting of M-1 integers, specifying the number of cities positioned at each distance 1, 2,..., M - 1. Array T describes a network of cities as follows: · if T[P] Q and P = Q, then P is the capital; if T[P Q and P Q, then there is a direct road between cities P and Q. For example, given the following array T consisting of ten elements: T[2] 4 T[6]8 T[9] = 1 = 9 T[7] the function should return [1, 3, 2,3,0,0,0,0,01, as explained above. Write an efficient algorithm for the following assumptions: M is an integer within the range [1..100,000]; each element of array T is an integer within the range [0.M-1] there is exactly one (possibly indirect) connection between any two distinct cities.

A New Mindset for Leading Change [WLO: 1][CLO: 6]
Throughout the MAECEL program so far, you have encountered many opportunities to consider how you can make a difference as a professional and as a leader in the field of early childhood education. As Fullan (1993) states, as educators our purpose is “to make a difference in the lives of students regardless of background, to help produce citizens who can live and work productively in increasingly dynamically complex societies” (p. 4). Meaning, you, as an early childhood education professional and leader, have incredible capacity and potential to be a change agent who makes a positive difference in the lives of young children. With this new mindset in mind, please respond to each of the following prompts to share your insights on influencing educational change through action research.
· If you were to implement this study, what would be your next steps? How might implementation support better outcomes for young children and their families?
· Given the conditions discussed in Chapter 7 of the Mills (2014) textbook, discuss how you could support these conditions in an organization from the perspective of your current or future role in early childhood education.
· Share what it means to you to be a change agent in early childhood education and how you can leverage inquiry and research skills to promote quality education for young children.

Operation Blue Star - Saka Neela Tara
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

Introduction to Quality Improvement Essentials
This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

How to Break the cycle of negative Thoughts
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

What would best express Colonel Nicholson’s (Alec Guinness) view regarding what makes a soldier, as expressed in the The Bridge on the River Kwai clip? (Points : 1) The virtues of a good soldier are consistent no matter the circumstance. A good solider only acts virtuously when it benefits himself and his country. The good soldier regards the enemy as having less intrinsic worth than one’s own people. All of the above. Question 3.3. In his discussion of virtue and honor in the military, what does Robinson consider to be the relation between integrity and magnanimity? (Points : 1) They both should be pursued to the greatest extent possible. The inner honor of integrity should always take priority over the outer honors associated with magnanimity. Finding a suitable balance between the two helps prevent the excesses of each on its own. The prospect of honors from one’s peers is the only
