Why Do Projects Fail?
Project failure rates are certainly cause for concern, but consider that more
and more organizations are adopting a project-based model of organization,
called PBO, and it is not surprising to find that addressing failures and learning
from them has become increasingly important (Eden, Ackermann, & Williams,
2005; Gray & Larson, 2006; Hyvari, 2006; Robertson & Williams, 2006; Thiry &
Deguire, 2007).
Failures occur despite the fact that we have significantly improved the
process of planning, executing, and controlling projects. Two contributions
would include the Project Management Institute’s (PMI’s) A Guide to the
Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK® Guide) (2004) and the
literature on critical success factors (CSFs) (Cooke-Davies, 2002; Fortune &
White, 2006; Hyvari, 2006; Pinto & Slevin, 1987; Sutterfield, Friday-Stroud,
& Shivers-Blackwell, 2006).
To help us understand how projects fail, it may be useful to classify the
approaches represented by the PMBOK® Guide, Capability Maturity Model
Integration (CMMI), Earned Value Management (EVM), Critical Chain
Project Management (CCPM), and CSFs as the Rational Expectation view
of project management. They assume that project leaders follow a rational
and consistent approach to project management and strive to achieve spe-
cific organizational goals (Bazerman, 1994; Beach & Connolly, 2005). It is a
view that emphasizes what “should” be done. Argyris (1999) referred to this
as the “espoused” theory of individuals and organizations.
There is, however, another view, and it focuses on the way in which indi-
viduals within an organization actually behave and make decisions.
Borrowing from the work of Simon (1955) and Tversky and Kahneman (1974,
1981), it can be classified as the “behavioral” view of project management. It
emphasizes what individuals and groups “actually” do and how managers
make decisions involving values and risk preferences (Bazerman, 1994).
Argyris (1999) called this the “theory-in-practice.”
This article focuses on the behavioral view of project management and
how an understanding of systematic biases—those common to the human
decision-making process—can prove useful in diagnosing project failure. By
studying these systematic biases, we can learn how decision makers respond
to ambiguity, complexity, and uncertainty, as well as how their own particu-
lar psychological processes influence project decision making (Schwenk,
1984). From this behavioral view we can learn more about why management
approves an overly ambitious scope, why communications between teams is
limited, why a manager might ignore signs that the project is going badly, or
why a manager discourages the participation of a wider constituency in the
project management process.
The article begins with a framework for analyzing project outcomes,
introduces the systematic biases commonly associated with d.

– Begin with a topic title that describes what you will research.
Explain the reason for your topic selection
briefly in a
paragraph of at least 150 words
. In addition, please determine
three critically important questions
you would like to address regarding your topic, in your individual research paper.
Include a written description (100 words) for each question that includes why that question is critically important.
The objective in developing and posing these questions is
to stage your research and guide your preparation of the final Research Paper
, so that one or more ethical principles are applied and explained as a result of your research. This process helps you
establish a thesis for your research
.
Lastly,
provide at least three proposed reference sources, at least two of which must be from the UMGC library database (or an equivalent academic database)
, which you plan to use to address (i.e., research) the three questions.
These proposed reference sources must have external links. (Note: you are likely to find additional and even better references/sources as you continue your research for this Assignment.)
Remember: the emphasis on this paper is on digital technology and the ethical issue(s) with its use! Remember to follow all APA formatting requirements.
For the second part of this assignment, conduct research using the Web for the answers to the questions that you selected for the first part of this assignment. Please ensure that your research for this assignment addresses the
ethical issues of an existing or emerging technology
!
Prepare a minimum 4- 6 page, double-spaced paper and submit it to the Assignments Module as an attached Microsoft Word file. Indicate appropriate APA compliant reference citations for all sources you use. In addition to critical thinking and analysis skills, your paper should reflect appropriate grammar and spelling, good organization, and proper business-writing style.
Paper C is due at the end of t.
Paper Ba matrix mapping of a key IT-related organizational (o.docx
Paper B:
a matrix mapping of a key IT-related organizational (or personal) ethical issue concerning privacy and organizational policy designed to correct the ethical issue.
The first step of this assignment is an opportunity to analyze a key IT-related
organizational (or personal, if you are not in the job force) ethical issue, related to privacy,
subject to relevant laws, regulations, and policies
.
Both of the following sites provide sources, and an excellent backdrop for issues relating to privacy protection and the law.
See EPIC Privacy Issues
at:
http://epic.org/privacy/
See List on left
and/or: EFF Privacy at
https://www.eff.org/issues/privacy
[see list below in center on this page].
This includes sub-topics discussing information privacy, privacy laws, applications and court rulings (case law is usually an extension of the basic law based on the facts from specific cases and real-world court decisions), and key privacy and anonymity issues.
While the sites provide many interesting topics, be sure to focus on our class IT topics.

programming dominates all others—namely, threads,
sequential processes that share memory. They represent
a key concurrency model supported by modern com-
puters, programming languages, and operating systems.
Many general-purpose parallel architectures in use
today—such as symmetric multiprocessors—are direct
hardware realizations of the thread abstraction.
Some applications can use threads very effectively—
for example, so-called embarrassingly parallel applica-
tions that essentially spawn multiple independent
processes such as build tools (PVM gmake) or Web
servers. Given these applications’ independence, pro-
gramming is relatively easy and the abstraction being
used is more like processes than threads. Where such
applications do share data, they do so through database
abstractions, which manage concurrency through such
mechanisms as transactions. However, client-side appli-
cations are not so simple.
Threads are not the only possibility for concurrent
programming. In scientific computing, where perfor-
mance requirements have long demanded concurrent
programming, data-parallel language extensions and
message-passing libraries—such as PVM, MPI, and
OpenMP—dominate over threads for concurrent pro-
gramming. Computer architectures intended for scien-
tific computing often differ significantly from so-called
general-purpose architectures. They commonly support
vectors and streams in hardware, for example. However,
even in this domain, concurrent programs remain
tedious to write. C and Fortran dominate, despite a long
history of much better data-parallel languages.
For concurrent programming to become mainstream, we must discard threads as a
programming model. Nondeterminism should be judiciously and carefully introduced
where needed, and it should be explicit in programs.

This paper requires you to reference and cite BOTH “Reading Lolita in Tehran” by Azar Nafasi and “The Naked Citadel” by Susan Faludi in a well thought-out analysis.
Azar Nafasi describes the life in the Islamic Republic after the revolution and the newfound laws which arose as a result of it. She explains how the totalitarian regime has oppressed women and limited them in their everyday lives and activities driving them to hide their true identities under the required black scarves and dresses. Susan Faludi describes the Citadel as a “living museum”, whose main attempt is to preserve the same ideals and traditions as when the school was first founded and shape the boys that attend the school into men.
Consider the following quote:
“Our world in that living room with its window framing my beloved Elburz Mountains became our sanctuary, our self-contained universe, mocking the reality of black-scarved, timid faces in the city that sprawled below” (Nafasi 419).
Both Nafasi and Faludi are exploring group behavior and identity in their works, but how does the Citadel boys’ and Tehran women’s behavior change depending on who they are around and where they are at the moment? Are their true identities suppressed at any given time and how? What does the word sanctuary mean for both the Citadel and the women in Iran? The Citadel and Nafisi’s living room seem to offer different ideas of the word sanctuary. How does Faludi understand the way the Citadel presents itself as a ‘sanctuary’ from a libertine and effeminized world? Similarly, how do the weekly meetings in the author’s living room serve as a sanctuary for the women in the literature group and why do they find the need to expose their true selves and all their colors in this sacred space? Could the Citadel be considered functioning as a totalitarian regime? If so, how are the Citadel’s “laws” similar to the laws of the Islamic Republic after the revolution regarding their behavior towards women?
You can also consider more broadly how space- open space, isolated space, can be a tool of both oppression as well as resistance.
Provide a well thought-out analysis of BOTH texts and include quotes to support your argument. Consider whether the two authors would agree with each others’ writing and main idea, if not, what would they disagree on?

The Illusions of Individual Identity and Choice
Individuals, especially in America, have become increasingly more adept at convincing themselves they are special. Americans are now told from birth that they are special, that they have something unique to offer the world, that they should “be themselves because everybody else is already taken.” This trope, however, assumes that as individuals, our identities are entirely separate from those of the humans.

paper #1 danaThe covid-19 global pandemic and the connection.docx
paper #1 dana
The covid-19 global pandemic and the connection of the developing international slowdown call into inquisition involving the wide range of financial revelations and requiring innovative clarifications to different interlinked societal predicaments. Therefore, progression and the expanse of the virus created a system of economic trade that affected the social outcome that influences the market's supply and demand concept. Market manufacturing is the primary outcome with the most prevailing views for establishing the cultural behavior's insight into the potential to guarantee a level of impartiality in supplying stores (Hathaway, 2020). Moreover, the global threat of the covid-19 pandemic affects various cultures to impose structural adjustment in contrast to multiple circumstances that involve many social situations. Therefore, one specific area affected is that of a country that works hard to maintain its self-sufficiency. Because the virus reaches Africa's nation, that presents the destructive rule of neoclassical ideas that impact the finance notions (Howard, 2021).
However, since the pandemic hit generated a high demand for sufficient personal protective equipment (EPP), which also plays a more significant part in protecting the people due to lack of examinations and vaccines; that are not readily available compared to other countries. Therefore, a limited supply of medical items that are needed to fight off the virus is a much-needed aspect that influences the production interests and availability. The diagnoses of economics and related methods have expanded globally and have dominated both the Westland and Africa. So, mainstream distribution means are restricted in their ability to imagine the fundamental and institutional difficulties of improvement, which have become even more challenging with African countries at the more moderate end of the nationwide supply trade (Howard, 2021). The covid-19 pandemic created an additional motivation that involves the social discussion concerning the imperfections in the greater outlook in economic practices that affected control and reduce administration management and expense (Ranald, 2020). The global finance practices system maximizes economic expense with the general policy situation involving supply and demand series for the market economic exchanges with the pandemic motivation.

1.0 Executive Summary
Papa Geo’s Restaurant needs to be competitive and unveil marketing crusades to protect their returns in the business. However, it is guided by typical objectives in the marketing plan. The first objective of the restaurant is ensuring customer satisfaction and loyalty. The target market entails about 10,000 families which is a totality of lower to middle class clients with zero direct competition. However, the customers’ satisfaction is determined the customer’s loyalty to the restaurant especially due to the services that they receive. The restaurant wins the customers through the good Italian food of low price. Stunning cleanliness of the restaurant is welcoming and eye catching which applies to both the foods served and the environment. Generation of the restraint traffic will impact the Restaurant towards success. The restaurant will cultivate a customer base such as having demanding lunchtimes and dinner services through intensive marketing. It will achieve this through weekly and monthly promotions as the marketing strategies.
The restaurant needs to attain their financial goals. The objective is to meet the financial income goal of $40000 annually. At the starting of the second year the company expects to attain a minimum of 2% profits of the sales. The main objective of the restaurant is profitability. It is attainable with the managerial ability to achieve the weekly goals especially through cost reduction with profitability growth concurrently.The restaurant needs to develop a restaurant brand. As the restaurant grows successfully, it will improve it’s place in the local market and toughen the brand. The quality of the food served has a great influence on the restaurant branding. The company purposes to cook using healthy products and use the brand to win new customers (Myers, 2019).

Paper 1 Michael
Looking back at the history of the United States helps open our eyes to the positive and negative impacts of decisions made by our elected officials. No matter who is President, we can find many accomplishments and failures a like. President Lyndon Johnson is no different. He had many successes and failures. One of his most notable accomplishments is creating the Great Society. This was his plight to attack poverty, race, and immigration. He decided after a report produced by the Council of Economic Advisers in 1964 that he would work to eliminate poverty. The report "estimated that 22 percent of the nation's population lived in poverty, lacking adequate food, shelter, and clothing" (Schultz, 2013, p 494). He persuaded Congress to pass the Economic Opportunity Act, which was designed to include many programs to eliminate poverty. Many of these programs delt with education and jobs. He also worked to create Medicare and Medicaid to provide medical insurance for the elderly and poor (Schultz, 2013). When it came to civil rights of Americans, he signed the Civil Rights Act of 1964 which "outlawed discrimination based on race, color, national origin, religion or sex" (Evaluating the success of the Great Society, n.d. para 7). It also allowed lawsuits against segregated schools. These programs all were seen as a positive to LBJs presidency. One last positive to look at was his work on immigration. He got rid of the national origins formula from the 1920s and opened the United States up to all immigrants (Evaluating the success of the Great Society, n.d.). These were all considered positive accomplishments of his presidency. Many see his biggest failure as the Vietnam War. His fear of the domino theory that was the thought that if one country fell to communism the surrounding ones will also fall to communism (Schultz, 2013). He felt the way to help Vietnam was to send more troops but could not get Congress to declare war on Vietnam. Instead, it turned into a police action. His involvement in Vietnam was the downfall of his presidency. As the war continued, America was rocked with protests and he lost popularity with his own political party (History.com Editors, 2009). This was his political demise. Still to this day people question why we were there.
After my research, I would say that over all President Johnson did a lot of great things for the United States. we cannot judge a president off of a few mistakes. We need to keep an open mind and look at the Presidency as a whole. My opinion is that Johnson made great strides in America. His Presidency had great impacts on the citizens of this country. While I felt his decision on Vietnam was wrong, his idea of the Great Society had a positive impact on our country.

Paper 1 According to the authors, privacy and security go han.docx
Paper 1:
According to the authors, privacy and security go hand in hand; and hence, privacy cannot be protected without implementing proper security controls and technologies. Today, organizations must make not only reasonable efforts to offer protection of privacy of data, but also must go much further as privacy breaches are damaging to its customers, reputation, and potentially could put the company out of business. As we continue learning from our various professional areas of practice, its no doubt that breaches have become an increasing concern to many businesses and their future operations. Taking Cyberattacks proliferation of 2011 into context, security experts at Intel/McAfee discovered huge series of cyberattacks on the networks of 72 organizations globally, including the United Nations, governments and corporations.

NATIONAL CENTER FOR CASE STUDY TEACHING IN SCIENCE
Problem Statement
Congratulations! Y ou are leaving Earth forever. You are selected to be part of a mining colony of 100 people located on
the planet Mars. Before you head to Mars, however, you need to fi gure out how to feed yourself and your colleagues
once you are there. Your group is tasked with selecting the foods to be grown on Mars.
Suppose that enough food can be taken to supply the entire colony for several months (approximately 90 days). After
this, food for the colony must come from what can be grown. Th e colony manager is instructed to keep costs as low as
possible while still providing a sustainable food supply that meets the nutrient requirements for adult humans. You may
assume that all of the colonists are healthy adults of average height and weight with no known food allergies.
By the time you arrive on Mars, a dome-like structure will already be in place to maintain an Earth-like air composition,
pressure, and temperature. Within this dome there are 1000 acres available for growing foodstuff s. You can bring seeds,
soil, and fertilizer with you, but keep in mind that seeds require time to germinate and grow to maturity, and diff erent
plants have diff erent growth requirements. Additionally, certain foodstuff s require more fertilizer than others, which is
additional weight you must bring with you, increasing the cost of the trip.
Some Mars facts: Mars has a 687d orbital period and a 24h 40m day-night cycle, and sunlight is about 44% as intense
as at Earth. Mars has plenty of carbon dioxide and water for your use, but you will still need to collect it and recycle
all that you use. Th e soil and air are extremely poor in carbon and nitrogen compounds, hence the need for fertilizers
and other organics. Outside of your dome, the air pressure will be at most about 1% that at Earth’s surface. Th e outside
day-night temperature will vary by 60 to 80°C, with a daytime maximum above the freezing point of water during the
summer. Martian-analog soils on Earth would include those of the ash-infused Columbia plateau in North America,
and the Dry Valleys of Antarctica.
Your problem-solving method will proceed thus:
• In Part I, you will identify some potential challenges related to sustainable agriculture.
• In Part II, you will choose fi ve criteria to be used for ranking potential Martian crops.
• In Part III, you will use your criteria to rank a list of given crops and identify the top three.
• In Part IV, you will refl ect upon the context of the problem, the method of solution, and the results, and
thereby identify strengths and weaknesses.

Paper C Topic Selection (Individual) and Research of an existin.docx
Paper C: Topic Selection (Individual) and Research of an existing or emerging technology and its related ethical issues.
For the first part of this assignment, select a topic for individual research.
Select a digital ethical issue for your research that is caused by the existing or emerging technology.
Following is a link to some suggested topical ideas you may want to consider as a candidate for this assignment.
Be sure to keep in mind that
the technology aspects of this assignment are different from those of Paper A (Application of decision making frameworks to IT-related ethical issues) or Paper B, which dealt with aspects of ethical issues and a subsequent organizational policy.
Recommended Source:
https://www.scu.edu/ethics/ethics-resources/ethics-articles/
The above link will help you to find articles on ethics in many fields and disciplines
,
please remember that
the emphasis on this paper is on
digital technology
and the ethical issue(s) with its use
Topic Title
– Begin with a topic title that describes what you will research.
Explain the reason for your topic selection
briefly in a
paragraph of at least 150 words
. In addition, please determine
three critically important questions
you would like to address regarding your topic, in your individual research paper.
Include a written description (100 words) for each question that includes why that question is critically important.
The objective in developing and posing these questions is
to stage your research and guide your preparation of the final Research Paper
, so that one or more ethical principles are applied and explained as a result of your research. This process helps you
establish a thesis for your research
.
Lastly,
provide at least three proposed reference sources, at least two of which must be from the UMGC library database (or an equivalent academic database)
, which you plan to use to address (i.e., research) the three questions.
These proposed reference sources must have external links. (Note: you are likely to find additional and even better references/sources as you continue your research for this Assignment.)
Remember: the emphasis on this paper is on digital technology and the ethical issue(s) with its use! Remember to follow all APA formatting requirements.
For the second part of this assignment, conduct research using the Web for the answers to the questions that you selected for the first part of this assignment. Please ensure that your research for this assignment addresses the
ethical issues of an existing or emerging technology
!
Prepare a minimum 4- 6 page, double-spaced paper and submit it to the Assignments Module as an attached Microsoft Word file. Indicate appropriate APA compliant reference citations for all sources you use. In addition to critical thinking and analysis skills, your paper should reflect appropriate grammar and spelling, good organization, and proper business-writing style.

Paper Ba matrix mapping of a key IT-related organizational (o.docx
Paper B:
a matrix mapping of a key IT-related organizational (or personal) ethical issue concerning privacy and organizational policy designed to correct the ethical issue.
The first step of this assignment is an opportunity to analyze a key IT-related
organizational (or personal, if you are not in the job force) ethical issue, related to privacy,
subject to relevant laws, regulations, and policies
.
Both of the following sites provide sources, and an excellent backdrop for issues relating to privacy protection and the law.
See EPIC Privacy Issues
at:
http://epic.org/privacy/
See List on left
and/or: EFF Privacy at
https://www.eff.org/issues/privacy
[see list below in center on this page].
This includes sub-topics discussing information privacy, privacy laws, applications and court rulings (case law is usually an extension of the basic law based on the facts from specific cases and real-world court decisions), and key privacy and anonymity issues.
While the sites provide many interesting topics, be sure to focus on our class IT topics.

programming dominates all others—namely, threads,
sequential processes that share memory. They represent
a key concurrency model supported by modern com-
puters, programming languages, and operating systems.
Many general-purpose parallel architectures in use
today—such as symmetric multiprocessors—are direct
hardware realizations of the thread abstraction.
Some applications can use threads very effectively—
for example, so-called embarrassingly parallel applica-
tions that essentially spawn multiple independent
processes such as build tools (PVM gmake) or Web
servers. Given these applications’ independence, pro-
gramming is relatively easy and the abstraction being
used is more like processes than threads. Where such
applications do share data, they do so through database
abstractions, which manage concurrency through such
mechanisms as transactions. However, client-side appli-
cations are not so simple.
Threads are not the only possibility for concurrent
programming. In scientific computing, where perfor-
mance requirements have long demanded concurrent
programming, data-parallel language extensions and
message-passing libraries—such as PVM, MPI, and
OpenMP—dominate over threads for concurrent pro-
gramming. Computer architectures intended for scien-
tific computing often differ significantly from so-called
general-purpose architectures. They commonly support
vectors and streams in hardware, for example. However,
even in this domain, concurrent programs remain
tedious to write. C and Fortran dominate, despite a long
history of much better data-parallel languages.
For concurrent programming to become mainstream, we must discard threads as a
programming model. Nondeterminism should be judiciously and carefully introduced
where needed, and it should be explicit in programs.

Due Date April 17
Rough Draft (Optional) Due April 10
This paper requires you to reference and cite BOTH “Reading Lolita in Tehran” by Azar Nafasi and “The Naked Citadel” by Susan Faludi in a well thought-out analysis.
Azar Nafasi describes the life in the Islamic Republic after the revolution and the newfound laws which arose as a result of it. She explains how the totalitarian regime has oppressed women and limited them in their everyday lives and activities driving them to hide their true identities under the required black scarves and dresses. Susan Faludi describes the Citadel as a “living museum”, whose main attempt is to preserve the same ideals and traditions as when the school was first founded and shape the boys that attend the school into men.
Consider the following quote:
“Our world in that living room with its window framing my beloved Elburz Mountains became our sanctuary, our self-contained universe, mocking the reality of black-scarved, timid faces in the city that sprawled below” (Nafasi 419).
Both Nafasi and Faludi are exploring group behavior and identity in their works, but how does the Citadel boys’ and Tehran women’s behavior change depending on who they are around and where they are at the moment? Are their true identities suppressed at any given time and how? What does the word sanctuary mean for both the Citadel and the women in Iran? The Citadel and Nafisi’s living room seem to offer different ideas of the word sanctuary. How does Faludi understand the way the Citadel presents itself as a ‘sanctuary’ from a libertine and effeminized world? Similarly, how do the weekly meetings in the author’s living room serve as a sanctuary for the women in the literature group and why do they find the need to expose their true selves and all their colors in this sacred space? Could the Citadel be considered functioning as a totalitarian regime? If so, how are the Citadel’s “laws” similar to the laws of the Islamic Republic after the revolution regarding their behavior towards women?
You can also consider more broadly how space- open space, isolated space, can be a tool of both oppression as well as resistance.
Provide a well thought-out analysis of BOTH texts and include quotes to support your argument. Consider whether the two authors would agree with each others’ writing and main idea, if not, what would they disagree on?

The Illusions of Individual Identity and Choice
Individuals, especially in America, have become increasingly more adept at convincing themselves they are special. Americans are now told from birth that they are special, that they have something unique to offer the world, that they should “be themselves because everybody else is already taken.” This trope, however, assumes that as individuals, our identities are entirely separate from those of the humans.

paper #1 danaThe covid-19 global pandemic and the connection.docx
paper #1 dana
The covid-19 global pandemic and the connection of the developing international slowdown call into inquisition involving the wide range of financial revelations and requiring innovative clarifications to different interlinked societal predicaments. Therefore, progression and the expanse of the virus created a system of economic trade that affected the social outcome that influences the market's supply and demand concept. Market manufacturing is the primary outcome with the most prevailing views for establishing the cultural behavior's insight into the potential to guarantee a level of impartiality in supplying stores (Hathaway, 2020). Moreover, the global threat of the covid-19 pandemic affects various cultures to impose structural adjustment in contrast to multiple circumstances that involve many social situations. Therefore, one specific area affected is that of a country that works hard to maintain its self-sufficiency. Because the virus reaches Africa's nation, that presents the destructive rule of neoclassical ideas that impact the finance notions (Howard, 2021).
However, since the pandemic hit generated a high demand for sufficient personal protective equipment (EPP), which also plays a more significant part in protecting the people due to lack of examinations and vaccines; that are not readily available compared to other countries. Therefore, a limited supply of medical items that are needed to fight off the virus is a much-needed aspect that influences the production interests and availability. The diagnoses of economics and related methods have expanded globally and have dominated both the Westland and Africa. So, mainstream distribution means are restricted in their ability to imagine the fundamental and institutional difficulties of improvement, which have become even more challenging with African countries at the more moderate end of the nationwide supply trade (Howard, 2021). The covid-19 pandemic created an additional motivation that involves the social discussion concerning the imperfections in the greater outlook in economic practices that affected control and reduce administration management and expense (Ranald, 2020). The global finance practices system maximizes economic expense with the general policy situation involving supply and demand series for the market economic exchanges with the pandemic motivation.

Paper 1 Michael
Looking back at the history of the United States helps open our eyes to the positive and negative impacts of decisions made by our elected officials. No matter who is President, we can find many accomplishments and failures a like. President Lyndon Johnson is no different. He had many successes and failures. One of his most notable accomplishments is creating the Great Society. This was his plight to attack poverty, race, and immigration. He decided after a report produced by the Council of Economic Advisers in 1964 that he would work to eliminate poverty. The report "estimated that 22 percent of the nation's population lived in poverty, lacking adequate food, shelter, and clothing" (Schultz, 2013, p 494). He persuaded Congress to pass the Economic Opportunity Act, which was designed to include many programs to eliminate poverty. Many of these programs delt with education and jobs. He also worked to create Medicare and Medicaid to provide medical insurance for the elderly and poor (Schultz, 2013). When it came to civil rights of Americans, he signed the Civil Rights Act of 1964 which "outlawed discrimination based on race, color, national origin, religion or sex" (Evaluating the success of the Great Society, n.d. para 7). It also allowed lawsuits against segregated schools. These programs all were seen as a positive to LBJs presidency. One last positive to look at was his work on immigration. He got rid of the national origins formula from the 1920s and opened the United States up to all immigrants (Evaluating the success of the Great Society, n.d.). These were all considered positive accomplishments of his presidency. Many see his biggest failure as the Vietnam War. His fear of the domino theory that was the thought that if one country fell to communism the surrounding ones will also fall to communism (Schultz, 2013). He felt the way to help Vietnam was to send more troops but could not get Congress to declare war on Vietnam. Instead, it turned into a police action. His involvement in Vietnam was the downfall of his presidency. As the war continued, America was rocked with protests and he lost popularity with his own political party (History.com Editors, 2009). This was his political demise. Still to this day people question why we were there.
After my research, I would say that over all President Johnson did a lot of great things for the United States. we cannot judge a president off of a few mistakes. We need to keep an open mind and look at the Presidency as a whole. My opinion is that Johnson made great strides in America. His Presidency had great impacts on the citizens of this country. While I felt his decision on Vietnam was wrong, his idea of the Great Society had a positive impact on our country.

Paper 1 According to the authors, privacy and security go han.docx
Paper 1:
According to the authors, privacy and security go hand in hand; and hence, privacy cannot be protected without implementing proper security controls and technologies. Today, organizations must make not only reasonable efforts to offer protection of privacy of data, but also must go much further as privacy breaches are damaging to its customers, reputation, and potentially could put the company out of business. As we continue learning from our various professional areas of practice, its no doubt that breaches have become an increasing concern to many businesses and their future operations. Taking Cyberattacks proliferation of 2011 into context, security experts at Intel/McAfee discovered huge series of cyberattacks on the networks of 72 organizations globally, including the United Nations, governments and corporations.

Problem Statement
Congratulations! Y ou are leaving Earth forever. You are selected to be part of a mining colony of 100 people located on
the planet Mars. Before you head to Mars, however, you need to fi gure out how to feed yourself and your colleagues
once you are there. Your group is tasked with selecting the foods to be grown on Mars.
Suppose that enough food can be taken to supply the entire colony for several months (approximately 90 days). After
this, food for the colony must come from what can be grown. Th e colony manager is instructed to keep costs as low as
possible while still providing a sustainable food supply that meets the nutrient requirements for adult humans. You may
assume that all of the colonists are healthy adults of average height and weight with no known food allergies.
By the time you arrive on Mars, a dome-like structure will already be in place to maintain an Earth-like air composition,
pressure, and temperature. Within this dome there are 1000 acres available for growing foodstuff s. You can bring seeds,
soil, and fertilizer with you, but keep in mind that seeds require time to germinate and grow to maturity, and diff erent
plants have diff erent growth requirements. Additionally, certain foodstuff s require more fertilizer than others, which is
additional weight you must bring with you, increasing the cost of the trip.
Some Mars facts: Mars has a 687d orbital period and a 24h 40m day-night cycle, and sunlight is about 44% as intense
as at Earth. Mars has plenty of carbon dioxide and water for your use, but you will still need to collect it and recycle
all that you use. Th e soil and air are extremely poor in carbon and nitrogen compounds, hence the need for fertilizers
and other organics. Outside of your dome, the air pressure will be at most about 1% that at Earth’s surface. Th e outside
day-night temperature will vary by 60 to 80°C, with a daytime maximum above the freezing point of water during the
summer. Martian-analog soils on Earth would include those of the ash-infused Columbia plateau in North America,
and the Dry Valleys of Antarctica.
Your problem-solving method will proceed thus:
• In Part I, you will identify some potential challenges related to sustainable agriculture.
• In Part II, you will choose fi ve criteria to be used for ranking potential Martian crops.
• In Part III, you will use your criteria to rank a list of given crops and identify the top three.
• In Part IV, you will refl ect upon the context of the problem, the method of solution, and the results, and
thereby identify strengths and weaknesses.
