Bullzeye is a discount retailer offering a wide range of products,.docx
Bullzeye is a discount retailer offering a wide range of products, including: home goods, clothing, toys, and food. The company is a regional retailer with 10 brick-and-mortar stores as well as a popular online store. Due to the recent credit card data breaches of various prominent national retail companies (e.g., Target, Home Depot, Staples), the Bullzeye Board of Directors has taken particular interest in information security, especially as it pertains to the protection of credit cardholder data within the Bullzeye environment. The Board has asked executive management to evaluate and strengthen the enterprise’s information security infrastructure, where needed.
In order to respond to the Board regarding their preparedness for a cyber-security attack, the Chief Financial Officer (CFO) has engaged your IT consulting firm to identify the inherent risks and recommend control remediation strategies to prevent or to detect and appropriately respond to data breaches. Your firm has been requested to liaison with the Internal Audit Department during the engagement. Your first step is to gain an understanding of Bullzeye’s IT environment. The Chief Audit Executive (CAE) schedules a meeting with key Bullzeye leadership personnel, including the CFO, Chief Information Officer (CIO), and Chief Information Security Officer (CISO).
The following key information was obtained.
Background
IT Security Framework/Policy -
Bullzeye has an information security policy, which was developed by the CISO. The policy was developed in response to an internal audit conducted by an external firm hired by the CAE. The policy is not based on one specific IT control framework but considers elements contained within several frameworks. An information security committee has been recently formed to discuss new security risks and to develop mitigation strategies.
The meeting will be held monthly and include the CISO and other key IT Directors reporting to the CIO.
In addition, a training program was implemented last year in order to provide education on various information security topics (e.g., social engineering, malware, etc.). The program requires that all staff within the IT department complete an annual information security training webinar and corresponding quiz. The training program is complemented by a monthly e-mail sent to IT staff, which highlights relevant information security topics.
General IT Environment -
Most employees in the corporate office are assigned a standard desktop computer, although certain management personnel in the corporate and retail locations are issued a laptop if they can demonstrate their need to work remotely. The laptops are given a standard Microsoft Windows operating system image, which includes anti-malware/anti-virus software and patch update software among others. In addition, new laptops are now encrypted; however, desktops and existing laptops are not currently encrypted due to budget concerns. The user provisioning.

Boulding (1956) looked at the complexity of systems from a hierarc.docx
Boulding (1956) looked at the complexity of systems from a hierarchical approach or a system of systems perspective. Boulding’s hierarchy includes nine levels of systems: frameworks, clockworks, cybernetic systems, open systems, plants, animals, humans, social organizations, and transcendental. This was one of the first major papers on systems and is the foundation for more complex theories and models. You will continue to explore complex systems in the coming weeks.
To prepare
for this Discussion, review Boulding’s article, “General Systems Theory: The Skeleton of Science” and Von Bertalanffy’s article, “The History and Status of General Systems Theory.” Consider how Boulding’s hierarchy of systems may inform your understanding of organizations.
Post,
your perspective on the relationship between Boulding’s hierarchy of systems and Von Bertalanffy’s general systems theory. Then, explain how these theories have or have not changed your perceptions of a system. Finally, explain how Boulding’s hierarchy might inform leadership and management in organizations.

Brian’s story Brian is 65 years old and lives with his dog ‘Spider.docx
Brian’s story
Brian is 65 years old and lives with his dog ‘Spider’ in a town flat on the first floor of a block of units
in a government housing estate.
About a year ago Brian had to move to town from his home community because his increasing
health needs could not be readily met in his community. He misses his community, the close bonds
with family and friends back home and is worried about his family’s welfare in his absence.
Brian has been a smoker for 30 years. He smokes 20 cigarettes per day and has a history of
recurrent chest infections, hypertension, sleep apnoea and gout. He has a persistent cough that he
calls a ‘smoker’s cough’. Recently he has noticed his cough is getting worse and producing greenish
coloured sputum.
Over the last few days he has been finding it increasingly difficult to walk up stairs and to look after
himself. He now has to stop every few minutes to catch his breath and decided it was time to come
to the Emergency Department at the hospital where you are practicing.
On your shift today, the Emergency Nurse gives you the following handover as part of
Brian’s admission to the setting where you are practicing today as a registered nurse:
Brian presented to the Emergency Department because his respiratory function has been
deteriorating over the last few days. After medical review, his provisional medical diagnosis is an
acute chest infection exacerbating suspected chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. He is being
admitted for treatment and further investigation of his respiratory function.
Brian’s current medications include allopurinol, cilazipril and metoprolol and in the emergency
department he has had first doses of ampicillin and a combination bronchodilator by metered dose
inhaler which are to continue until review. The doctor also ordered low flow oxygen via nasal
prongs, chest physio after the bronchodilator therapy and a high energy, high protein diet.
The Emergency nurse also tells you that Brian has reported he hasn’t had a shower for two days
because he gets “too puffed out’ and that he is very worried about his dog ‘Spider’ who has been left
locked up alone in his flat. He also is concerned that his family back in the community doesn’t know
that he’s not well and had come to hospital.
Your task in Assessment 1 is to critically discuss some of the key nursing issues related to
Brian’s care on your shift. Details of the specific nursing issues to address are identified on
the following pages.
Tasks
Based on Brian’s case and the information you have available, address the following seven
(7) items.
Do not make up or assume information in relation to Brian’s case. Only use what you
know from the case study information on the previous page.
Note: In most items Assessment 1, textbooks are not appropriate resources.

Briefly compare and discuss Louis Sullivan’s architectural principle.docx
Briefly compare and discuss Louis Sullivan’s architectural principle that “form follows function”
With Frank Lloyd Wright’s principle as follows:
“Form follows function—that has been misunderstood. Form and function should be one, joined in a spiritual union.”
- Frank Lloyd Wright
To examine this principle, observe some common objects. A pencil, comb, scissors, fork, or some similar object would be good choices for demonstration. Select an object to redesign or repurpose.
Be creative – many innovative and useful designs arise from simple improvements.
Name of Object: _____________________________________________________________
1. Describe the purpose of this object (its function).
2. Write directions for how the object should be used.
3. Describe its design (or form) as completely as possible. Include a description of its shape, material(s), color, texture, weight, and any other details you can observe.
4. Describe how the design of the object is connected to its use.
5. Name one thing you could change in the design of the object that would make it less functional.
6. Can you think of an improvement to make the object more functional?

Boulding’s hierarchy includes nine levels of systems: frameworks, clockworks, cybernetic systems, open systems, plants, animals, humans, social organizations, and transcendental. This was one of the first major papers on systems and is the foundation for more complex theories and models. You will continue to explore complex systems in the coming weeks.
To prepare
for this Discussion, review Boulding’s article, “General Systems Theory: The Skeleton of Science” and Von Bertalanffy’s article, “The History and Status of General Systems Theory.” Consider how Boulding’s hierarchy of systems may inform your understanding of organizations.
Post,
your perspective on the relationship between Boulding’s hierarchy of systems and Von Bertalanffy’s general systems theory. Then, explain how these theories have or have not changed your perceptions of a system. Finally, explain how Boulding’s hierarchy might inform leadership and management in organizations.

Brian’s story Brian is 65 years old and lives with his dog ‘Spider.docx
Brian’s story
Brian is 65 years old and lives with his dog ‘Spider’ in a town flat on the first floor of a block of units
in a government housing estate.
About a year ago Brian had to move to town from his home community because his increasing
health needs could not be readily met in his community. He misses his community, the close bonds
with family and friends back home and is worried about his family’s welfare in his absence.
Brian has been a smoker for 30 years. He smokes 20 cigarettes per day and has a history of
recurrent chest infections, hypertension, sleep apnoea and gout. He has a persistent cough that he
calls a ‘smoker’s cough’. Recently he has noticed his cough is getting worse and producing greenish
coloured sputum.
Over the last few days he has been finding it increasingly difficult to walk up stairs and to look after
himself. He now has to stop every few minutes to catch his breath and decided it was time to come
to the Emergency Department at the hospital where you are practicing.
On your shift today, the Emergency Nurse gives you the following handover as part of
Brian’s admission to the setting where you are practicing today as a registered nurse:
Brian presented to the Emergency Department because his respiratory function has been
deteriorating over the last few days. After medical review, his provisional medical diagnosis is an
acute chest infection exacerbating suspected chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. He is being
admitted for treatment and further investigation of his respiratory function.
Brian’s current medications include allopurinol, cilazipril and metoprolol and in the emergency
department he has had first doses of ampicillin and a combination bronchodilator by metered dose
inhaler which are to continue until review. The doctor also ordered low flow oxygen via nasal
prongs, chest physio after the bronchodilator therapy and a high energy, high protein diet.
The Emergency nurse also tells you that Brian has reported he hasn’t had a shower for two days
because he gets “too puffed out’ and that he is very worried about his dog ‘Spider’ who has been left
locked up alone in his flat. He also is concerned that his family back in the community doesn’t know
that he’s not well and had come to hospital.
Your task in Assessment 1 is to critically discuss some of the key nursing issues related to
Brian’s care on your shift. Details of the specific nursing issues to address are identified on
the following pages.
Tasks
Based on Brian’s case and the information you have available, address the following seven
(7) items.
Do not make up or assume information in relation to Brian’s case. Only use what you
know from the case study information on the previous page.
Note: In most items Assessment 1, textbooks are not appropriate resources.
Item 1: Clinical presentation No Textbooks are to be used in this section
Brian is part of your patient allocation for your shift today. You haven’.
Briefly compare and discuss Louis Sullivan’s architectural principle.docx
Briefly compare and discuss Louis Sullivan’s architectural principle that “form follows function”
With Frank Lloyd Wright’s principle as follows:
“Form follows function—that has been misunderstood. Form and function should be one, joined in a spiritual union.”
- Frank Lloyd Wright
To examine this principle, observe some common objects. A pencil, comb, scissors, fork, or some similar object would be good choices for demonstration. Select an object to redesign or repurpose.
Be creative – many innovative and useful designs arise from simple improvements.
Name of Object: _____________________________________________________________
1. Describe the purpose of this object (its function).
2. Write directions for how the object should be used.
3. Describe its design (or form) as completely as possible. Include a description of its shape, material(s), color, texture, weight, and any other details you can observe.
4. Describe how the design of the object is connected to its use.
5. Name one thing you could change in the design of the object that would make it less functional.
6. Can you think of an improvement to make the object more functional?

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
