Think of Hubert de Givenchy and, if you know anything about fashion, you think of the little black dress. Or, more specifically, the little black dress worn by Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany's.
Even though he loved monochrome, Givenchy didn't invent the LBD.
Chanel managed to nab that honour - although it's worth noting that black dresses were totally on trend among 17th-century Puritans. Bof, as Coco might have said. She who drones on about originality has a short memory.
The truth is no one can take full credit for the LBD, but Givenchy can take credit for Audrey, and Audrey can take credit for Givenchy. She wore him from the age of 25, when he designed her costumes for the film Sabrina, until she died, aged 64 in 1993.
By contrast, as Drusilla Beyfus's new biography of Hubert de Givenchy (published by Quadrille, Pounds 15) recounts, Jacqueline Kennedy was obliged to abandon him once JFK reached the White House.
Like Audrey, Jackie admired the patrician Frenchman's luxurious brand of dramatic minimalism but, for political expediency, she had to take up with American designers, such as Oleg Cassini, who was given strict instructions to more or less replicate Givenchy's style.
As if that weren't sneaky enough, post-Camelot, Jackie seems to have decided that Givenchy had become old-fashioned. The crisp rolled collars, stiff couture-y fabrics and pillbox hats that were quintessential Givenchy signatures of the Sixties (according to Vogue, Givenchy's ideas on the hat were "a contribution to female happiness") had, as more than one fashion critic sniffily observed at the time, become the accoutrements of air hostesses everywhere.
In fact, Beyfus's tome is not quite a biography; more a mini-coffee table book, albeit intelligently written and gorgeously illustrated with photographs by Irving Penn, Cecil Beaton, Norman Parkinson and other luminaries. Beyfus, who worked on The Daily Telegraph in the Sixties and at British Vogue in the Seventies (her daughter Alexandra Shulman now edits it) met the film-star-handsome, 6ft 6in Givenchy several times. It's that first-hand contact that lends Beyfus's observations a freshness, elevating this book high above the recycled platitudes and stale myths that often populate such efforts.
Hubert de Givenchy, as Beyfus points out with the same precision that the couturier used to sculpt his Sabrina necklines (a boat-neck he designed to conceal the hollows beneath Hepburn's collarbones), is rather an overlooked figure these days.

Mrs. Eunice Johnson was a pioneering figure in bridging the divide between high fashion and the Black community in the mid-20th century. As the fashion editor of Ebony magazine and director of the famous Ebony Fashion Fair, she personally purchased over 8,000 garments from top designers and spent $1-1.5 million per year on clothes. She transformed Ebony's fashion pages and used the Fashion Fair to expose Black audiences to haute couture at a time when it was rarely accessible. Through her work, Mrs. Johnson helped bring European fashion to America and engage in "racial uplift through personal style."
Coco Chanel was a pioneering French fashion designer who founded the iconic Chanel brand. She was born in 1883 and raised in an orphanage where she learned to sew. Chanel got her nickname "Coco" from her time performing as a cabaret singer. In 1910, she opened her first shop in Paris selling hats and soon expanded into clothing. Some of her most famous designs included the Chanel suit and the little black dress. Chanel also launched the popular Chanel No. 5 perfume. She helped liberate women's fashion and roles in society through her innovative designs which drew inspiration from traditional men's clothing and ethnic influences. The Chanel brand remains hugely successful today under creative director Karl Lagerfeld.
Christian Dior founded his eponymous fashion house in Paris in 1947. His first collection established the "New Look" silhouette that emphasized femininity through nipped-in waists, rounded hips, and full skirts. Dior's innovative designs were hugely popular and led to the growth of his brand into ready-to-wear, perfumes, and licensing. After Dior's death in 1957, the house was led by designers including Yves Saint Laurent, Marc Bohan, Gianfranco Ferre, and John Galliano before Raf Simons was appointed in 2012. Dior has remained one of the premier names in luxury fashion under the ownership of LVMH.
Gabrielle "Coco" Chanel was a French fashion designer who created timeless clothing designs still popular today. She grew up poor and was sent to an orphanage at age 12 after her mother died. As a young woman, she worked as a singer and began an affair with a wealthy man who financed her first hat shop in Paris. She went on to found the Chanel fashion house and revolutionized women's fashion with her designs of simple, elegant suits and the iconic little black dress. Some of her other major works included the Chanel No. 5 perfume, which became hugely popular. Chanel found great success but also faced controversy when she had relations with Nazi Germany during World War II. She made a famous

This document summarizes fashion, art, music, and culture during the period of 1957-1967. Key events included the rise of youth culture and new styles of dress influenced by designers like Mary Quant. Technological changes like jet travel made the world smaller. In art, pop art rose to prominence through the work of Andy Warhol. Major fashion influences included shifts to miniskirts, pantsuits for women, and new silhouettes from Courreges. Icons of the era included Jackie Kennedy, Twiggy, and The Beatles.
Coco Chanel was a famous French fashion designer born in 1883 in Saumur, France. She died in 1971 in Paris at age 87. Chanel founded the iconic Chanel brand and was known for her timeless designs like the little black dress and Chanel suit.

The babydoll dress has a history intertwined with gender politics, first appearing in the early 20th century as a liberated style without corsets and later being embraced by punk icons like Courtney Love for its subversion of feminine norms. Designers like Balenciaga transformed it from nightwear to couture in the 1950s-60s, representing the emancipation of women. In subsequent decades it became a symbol of youth culture and revolution through affordable shifts by Mary Quant, before later being reclaimed again by Love as a "kinderwhore" style parodying infantilization of women.

The babydoll dress has a history intertwined with gender politics, representing both female liberation and challenging social norms. It originated in the early 1900s as a short nightgown and was popularized in the 1940s as fabric rationing led to shorter hemlines. Designers like Balenciaga and Givenchy transformed it into couture in the 1950s as a symbol of emancipation from corsetry. In the 1960s, the babydoll dress became the uniform of youth culture with its short hemlines representing a rejection of traditional femininity. Artists like Courtney Love subverted the babydoll in the 1990s to challenge stereotypes of virginity and sexuality. The recent Devil Plus collection

Hubert James Taffin de Givenchy was a renowned French fashion designer born in 1927 in northern France. He studied art in Paris before apprenticing under designers like Jacques Fath. In 1952, Givenchy opened his own fashion house in Paris. Some of his earliest designs were inspired by model Bettina Graziani. Givenchy is best known for designing wardrobes for Audrey Hepburn in many of her iconic films. He also dressed other famous clients like Jacqueline Kennedy and Princess Grace of Monaco. In 1988, Givenchy sold his business but continued designing for several more years. Today, Riccardo Tisci serves as the creative director of the Givenchy fashion label.
Diane von Furstenberg created the iconic wrap dress in 1974. The wrap dress became a symbol of women's liberation in the 1970s as it celebrated a woman's natural silhouette in a comfortable and versatile design. Within two years, 5 million wrap dresses had been sold, making DVF the most successful designer since Coco Chanel. By the late 1990s, younger women were rediscovering the wrap dress in vintage shops, prompting DVF to redesign it for a new generation. The wrap dress has remained a fashion staple for over 40 years.
A short history of the famous French children's imprints "Bibliothèque Rose" and "Bibliothèque Verte" put together as part for my Children's Literature in Traslation studies module in my MA Children's Literature.
- Vogue began as an American magazine in 1892 and was acquired by Conde Nast in 1909, thickening the magazine and focusing more on women's fashion and lifestyle.
- In 1916, printing began in the UK as well due to WWI making deliveries to Europe impossible. This expansion proved successful and the first French Vogue launched in 1920.
- Important periods included the first color photograph on the American cover in 1932 and the leadership of Diana Vreeland in the 1960s who made Vogue a symbol of a new, creative era. Anna Wintour further cemented Vogue's position as the top global fashion magazine starting in 1988.
Josephine Baker was an American dancer, singer and actress who found fame in her performances in Paris during the 1920s. She became a huge star in Europe due to her sensual and exotic dance routines. Baker faced racism in the United States and struggled to find success there. During World War II, she served as a spy for the French resistance. Later in life, Baker fought against racism and segregation in the U.S. She passed away in 1975 in France and was given a military burial in recognition of her service.

OverviewThe US is currently undergoing an energy boom largel.docxjacksnathalie
Overview
The US is currently undergoing an energy boom largely because of the development of the greatly expanded use of a well technique developed over 40 years ago - hydraulic fracking. It can be used for both oil and natural gas wells.. The technique allows previously unrecoverable oil and gas in old, played out wells to be accessed and increases the efficiency of recovery in new wells significantly. The current level of both recovery and new well drilling is dramatically higher than it has been for decades. The dramatic increase in well activity, some of which has been near towns and places no one thought drilling would ever occur. It has brought a great deal of attention to the technique and associated effects on everything from ground water and air pollution, to biodiversity disruption and earthquakes.
One important fact to weave into your opinion about fracking pro or con is that all of the sub-surface mineral rights in the US are owned by someone (a private individual, a business, or the state or federal government) but surface and mineral rights can be separated, i.e. sold. Originally, mineral rights were sold along with the land and then companies or individuals could decide if they wanted to keep or sell the mineral rights. Before mineral rights were so valuable, many people opted to sell their mineral rights to oil & gas companies. It never occurred to many people that someone would actually be drilling on their property or their neighbors. Oil and gas companies have a legal right to exercise their ownership options and if you are going to say "no" to them, then you owe them for what you are not letting them have, i.e. the money that would be produced if they were allowed to drill. This is not a trivial issue.
Instructions
This week’s discussion focuses on the pros and cons of hydraulic fracking and asks for your SCIENCE informed opinion on whether the economics and political fossil fuel issues justify the negative tradeoffs.
Address each of the following in your discussion:
How is fracking done and why are companies doing this action versus traditional drilling?
Are the environmental issues with fracking worse than conventional drilling? Why or why not?
Why are people along the Front Range and in other states where fracking is widespread, so upset about it now even though fracking has been occurring for a long time?
*In your initial post, please provide 3-4 references in APA format with in-text citations.

OverviewThe United Nations (UN) has hired you as a consultan.docxjacksnathalie
Overview
The United Nations (UN) has hired you as a consultant, and your task is to assess the impact that global warming is expected to have on population growth and the ability of societies in the developing world to ensure the adequate security of their food supplies.
Case Assessment
As the world’s population nears 10 billion by 2050, the effects of global warming are stripping some natural resources from the environment. As they diminish in number, developing countries will face mounting obstacles to improving the livelihoods of their citizens and stabilizing their access to enough food. The reason these governments are struggling even now is that our climate influences their economic health and the consequent diminishing living standards of their peoples. Climate changes are responsible for the current loss of biodiversity as well as the physical access to some critical farming regions. As such, these changes in global weather patterns diminish agricultural output and the distribution of food to local and international markets. These difficulties will become even more significant for these countries as the Earth’s climate changes for the worse. Temperatures are already increasing incrementally, and polar ice caps are melting, so the salient question is: what does this suggest for developing societies?
The issue before the developing world is not its lack of food, but rather how to gain access to food. Simply put, changes in our climate are affecting the global food chain, and hence, the living standards of entire populations. Added to this is the fact that food is not getting to where it is needed in time to prevent hunger or starvation. In many developing countries, shortages are due to governments’ control over distribution networks rather than an insufficient supply of food itself. In effect, these governments are weaponizing food by favoring certain ethnic or religious groups over others. When added to dramatic climate changes that we are experiencing even now, the future for billions of poor people looks increasingly dim.
Instructions
You are to write a minimum of a 5 page persuasive paper for the UN that addresses the following questions about the relationship between atmospheric weather patterns and food security in the developing world:
Climate change and global warming are often used interchangeably, but they are not the same phenomenon. What are the differences between the two concepts and what leads to the confusion between them?
In 1900, the average global temperature was about 13.7° Celsius (56.7° Fahrenheit) (Osborn, 2021), but as of 2020, the temperature has risen another 1.2°C to 14.9°C (58.9°F). According to the Earth and climate science community, if the Earth’s surface temperature rises another 2°C (3.6°F), we will suffer catastrophic weather patterns that, among other things, will raise sea levels, cause widespread droughts and wildfires, result in plant, insect, and animal extinctions, and reduce agricultura.

Overview
This project will allow you to write a program to get more practice with object-oriented ideas that we explored in the previous project, as well as some practice with more advanced ideas such as inheritance and the use of interfaces.
Ipods and other MP3 players organize a user's music selection into groups known as playlists. These are data structures that provide a collection of songs and an ordering for how those songs will be played. For this assignment you will be writing a set of PlayList classes that could be used for a program that organizes music for a user. These classes will be written to implement a particular PlayList interface so that they can be easily exchange in and out as the program requires. In addition, you will also be using the SimpleTrack class you wrote for the closed lab on Interfaces - if you did not finish this class before the end of lab, you will need to finish it before starting on this project.
Objectives
Practice with programming fundamentals
Review of various Java fundamentals (branching, loops, variables, methods, etc.)
Review of Java File I/O concepts
Practice with Java ArrayList concepts
Practice with object-oriented programming and design
Practice with Java interfaces
Project Description
The SimplePlaylist Class
Once you have coded and tested your SimpleTrack class, you will need to write a SimplePlaylist class that implements the Playist interface given in the project folder.
The SimplePlayList class stores music tracks in order - the first track added to the play list should be the first one removed from the play list. You should recognize this data structure as a
queue
(or a
first-in, first-out queue
). You do not need to implement the equals, hashCode and toString methods for this class but if you choose to do so make sure you document your implementations properly!
The PlayList Management Program
Once you have written and tested a SimpleTrack class and a SimplePlaylist class, it is time to use them to write a program to manage playlists. This program will simulate the playing of songs from a play list. For the SimplePlaylist, the songs are removed from the playlist as they are played, so you know that you're at the end of the list when your list is empty. This program should be implemented in the file MusicPlayerSimulator.java. Note that we are not defining ANY of the methods you are using for this program - the design is all up to you. You must, however, practice good programming style - make sure you are breaking the program up into smaller methods and aren't just trying to solve everything with one monolithic main method. If you have fewer than 5 methods for this program you are probably trying to fit too much into a single method.

OverviewProgress monitoring is a type of formative assessment in.docxjacksnathalie
Overview
Progress monitoring is a type of formative assessment in which student learning is evaluated
on a regular basis to provide useful feedback about performance to both students and
teachers. Though there are a number of methods for monitoring a student’s progress, the most
widely used is general outcome measurement, sometimes referred to as curriculum-based
measurement (CBM). Progress monitoring consists of the frequent administration (e.g., once
per month, every two weeks) of brief probes or tests, which include sample items from every
skill taught across the academic year. After each probe is scored, the teacher or student plots
the score on an individual CBM graph. The teacher can then use this data to determine a
student’s:
• Rate of growth — Average growth of a student’s mathematics skills over a period of time
• Performance level — An indication of a student’s current mathematics skills, often
denoted by a score on a test or probe.
You will determine the rate of growth for the two students listed on page 3 using the data provided.

Her minimalist designs emphasized comfort and practicality, using fabrics like jersey and men's influences. Chanel's innovative styles left an enduring legacy that still shapes fashion today.
This slideshow provides information about the influential fashion designer Gabrielle "Coco" Chanel. It outlines key events in her life, from growing up in an orphanage to founding the iconic Chanel brand. The slideshow highlights some of Chanel's most famous fashion innovations, including the little black dress and Chanel No. 5 perfume, and how she revolutionized women's fashion in the 1920s with a simpler, more practical style. It concludes by discussing Chanel's enduring legacy as one of the top fashion houses in the world today.
Hubert James Taffin de Givenchy was a renowned French fashion designer born in 1927 in northern France. He studied art in Paris before apprenticing under designers like Jacques Fath. In 1952, Givenchy opened his own fashion house in Paris. Some of his earliest designs were inspired by model Bettina Graziani. Givenchy is best known for designing wardrobes for Audrey Hepburn in many of her iconic films. He also dressed other famous clients like Jacqueline Kennedy and Princess Grace of Monaco. In 1988, Givenchy sold his business but continued designing for several more years. Today, Riccardo Tisci serves as the creative director of the Givenchy fashion label.
Diane von Furstenberg created the iconic wrap dress in 1974. The wrap dress became a symbol of women's liberation in the 1970s as it celebrated a woman's natural silhouette in a comfortable and versatile design. Within two years, 5 million wrap dresses had been sold, making DVF the most successful designer since Coco Chanel. By the late 1990s, younger women were rediscovering the wrap dress in vintage shops, prompting DVF to redesign it for a new generation. The wrap dress has remained a fashion staple for over 40 years.
A short history of the famous French children's imprints "Bibliothèque Rose" and "Bibliothèque Verte" put together as part for my Children's Literature in Traslation studies module in my MA Children's Literature.
- Vogue began as an American magazine in 1892 and was acquired by Conde Nast in 1909, thickening the magazine and focusing more on women's fashion and lifestyle.
- In 1916, printing began in the UK as well due to WWI making deliveries to Europe impossible. This expansion proved successful and the first French Vogue launched in 1920.
- Important periods included the first color photograph on the American cover in 1932 and the leadership of Diana Vreeland in the 1960s who made Vogue a symbol of a new, creative era. Anna Wintour further cemented Vogue's position as the top global fashion magazine starting in 1988.
Josephine Baker was an American dancer, singer and actress who found fame in her performances in Paris during the 1920s. She became a huge star in Europe due to her sensual and exotic dance routines. Baker faced racism in the United States and struggled to find success there. During World War II, she served as a spy for the French resistance. Later in life, Baker fought against racism and segregation in the U.S. She passed away in 1975 in France and was given a military burial in recognition of her service.

1) Ginevra de’ Benci by Leonardo da Vinci features an innovative three-quarter pose and juniper framing her face, alluding to her name.
2) Titian's Venus of Urbino is unapologetically erotic but not scandalous as Venus, and features a dog suggesting fidelity.
3) Eugene Delacroix's La Liberté guidant le peuple depicts a barefoot, bare-breasted woman symbolic of the French Revolution.

OverviewThe US is currently undergoing an energy boom largel.docxjacksnathalie
Overview
The US is currently undergoing an energy boom largely because of the development of the greatly expanded use of a well technique developed over 40 years ago - hydraulic fracking. It can be used for both oil and natural gas wells.. The technique allows previously unrecoverable oil and gas in old, played out wells to be accessed and increases the efficiency of recovery in new wells significantly. The current level of both recovery and new well drilling is dramatically higher than it has been for decades. The dramatic increase in well activity, some of which has been near towns and places no one thought drilling would ever occur. It has brought a great deal of attention to the technique and associated effects on everything from ground water and air pollution, to biodiversity disruption and earthquakes.
One important fact to weave into your opinion about fracking pro or con is that all of the sub-surface mineral rights in the US are owned by someone (a private individual, a business, or the state or federal government) but surface and mineral rights can be separated, i.e. sold. Originally, mineral rights were sold along with the land and then companies or individuals could decide if they wanted to keep or sell the mineral rights. Before mineral rights were so valuable, many people opted to sell their mineral rights to oil & gas companies. It never occurred to many people that someone would actually be drilling on their property or their neighbors. Oil and gas companies have a legal right to exercise their ownership options and if you are going to say "no" to them, then you owe them for what you are not letting them have, i.e. the money that would be produced if they were allowed to drill. This is not a trivial issue.
Instructions
This week’s discussion focuses on the pros and cons of hydraulic fracking and asks for your SCIENCE informed opinion on whether the economics and political fossil fuel issues justify the negative tradeoffs.
Address each of the following in your discussion:
How is fracking done and why are companies doing this action versus traditional drilling?
Are the environmental issues with fracking worse than conventional drilling? Why or why not?
Why are people along the Front Range and in other states where fracking is widespread, so upset about it now even though fracking has been occurring for a long time?
*In your initial post, please provide 3-4 references in APA format with in-text citations.

OverviewThe United Nations (UN) has hired you as a consultan.docxjacksnathalie
Overview
The United Nations (UN) has hired you as a consultant, and your task is to assess the impact that global warming is expected to have on population growth and the ability of societies in the developing world to ensure the adequate security of their food supplies.
Case Assessment
As the world’s population nears 10 billion by 2050, the effects of global warming are stripping some natural resources from the environment. As they diminish in number, developing countries will face mounting obstacles to improving the livelihoods of their citizens and stabilizing their access to enough food. The reason these governments are struggling even now is that our climate influences their economic health and the consequent diminishing living standards of their peoples. Climate changes are responsible for the current loss of biodiversity as well as the physical access to some critical farming regions. As such, these changes in global weather patterns diminish agricultural output and the distribution of food to local and international markets. These difficulties will become even more significant for these countries as the Earth’s climate changes for the worse. Temperatures are already increasing incrementally, and polar ice caps are melting, so the salient question is: what does this suggest for developing societies?
The issue before the developing world is not its lack of food, but rather how to gain access to food. Simply put, changes in our climate are affecting the global food chain, and hence, the living standards of entire populations. Added to this is the fact that food is not getting to where it is needed in time to prevent hunger or starvation. In many developing countries, shortages are due to governments’ control over distribution networks rather than an insufficient supply of food itself. In effect, these governments are weaponizing food by favoring certain ethnic or religious groups over others. When added to dramatic climate changes that we are experiencing even now, the future for billions of poor people looks increasingly dim.
Instructions
You are to write a minimum of a 5 page persuasive paper for the UN that addresses the following questions about the relationship between atmospheric weather patterns and food security in the developing world:
Climate change and global warming are often used interchangeably, but they are not the same phenomenon. What are the differences between the two concepts and what leads to the confusion between them?
In 1900, the average global temperature was about 13.7° Celsius (56.7° Fahrenheit) (Osborn, 2021), but as of 2020, the temperature has risen another 1.2°C to 14.9°C (58.9°F). According to the Earth and climate science community, if the Earth’s surface temperature rises another 2°C (3.6°F), we will suffer catastrophic weather patterns that, among other things, will raise sea levels, cause widespread droughts and wildfires, result in plant, insect, and animal extinctions, and reduce agricultura.

Overview
This project will allow you to write a program to get more practice with object-oriented ideas that we explored in the previous project, as well as some practice with more advanced ideas such as inheritance and the use of interfaces.
Ipods and other MP3 players organize a user's music selection into groups known as playlists. These are data structures that provide a collection of songs and an ordering for how those songs will be played. For this assignment you will be writing a set of PlayList classes that could be used for a program that organizes music for a user. These classes will be written to implement a particular PlayList interface so that they can be easily exchange in and out as the program requires. In addition, you will also be using the SimpleTrack class you wrote for the closed lab on Interfaces - if you did not finish this class before the end of lab, you will need to finish it before starting on this project.
Objectives
Practice with programming fundamentals
Review of various Java fundamentals (branching, loops, variables, methods, etc.)
Review of Java File I/O concepts
Practice with Java ArrayList concepts
Practice with object-oriented programming and design
Practice with Java interfaces
Project Description
The SimplePlaylist Class
Once you have coded and tested your SimpleTrack class, you will need to write a SimplePlaylist class that implements the Playist interface given in the project folder.
The SimplePlayList class stores music tracks in order - the first track added to the play list should be the first one removed from the play list. You should recognize this data structure as a
queue
(or a
first-in, first-out queue
). You do not need to implement the equals, hashCode and toString methods for this class but if you choose to do so make sure you document your implementations properly!
The PlayList Management Program
Once you have written and tested a SimpleTrack class and a SimplePlaylist class, it is time to use them to write a program to manage playlists. This program will simulate the playing of songs from a play list. For the SimplePlaylist, the songs are removed from the playlist as they are played, so you know that you're at the end of the list when your list is empty. This program should be implemented in the file MusicPlayerSimulator.java. Note that we are not defining ANY of the methods you are using for this program - the design is all up to you. You must, however, practice good programming style - make sure you are breaking the program up into smaller methods and aren't just trying to solve everything with one monolithic main method. If you have fewer than 5 methods for this program you are probably trying to fit too much into a single method.

OverviewProgress monitoring is a type of formative assessment in.docxjacksnathalie
Overview
Progress monitoring is a type of formative assessment in which student learning is evaluated
on a regular basis to provide useful feedback about performance to both students and
teachers. Though there are a number of methods for monitoring a student’s progress, the most
widely used is general outcome measurement, sometimes referred to as curriculum-based
measurement (CBM). Progress monitoring consists of the frequent administration (e.g., once
per month, every two weeks) of brief probes or tests, which include sample items from every
skill taught across the academic year. After each probe is scored, the teacher or student plots
the score on an individual CBM graph. The teacher can then use this data to determine a
student’s:
• Rate of growth — Average growth of a student’s mathematics skills over a period of time
• Performance level — An indication of a student’s current mathematics skills, often
denoted by a score on a test or probe.
You will determine the rate of growth for the two students listed on page 3 using the data provided.

OverviewDevelop a 4–6-page position about a specific health care.docxjacksnathalie
Overview
Develop a 4–6-page position about a specific health care issue as it relates to a target vulnerable population. Include an analysis of existing evidence and position papers to help support your position. Your analysis should also present and respond to one or more opposing viewpoints.
Note
: Each assessment in this course builds on the work you completed in the previous assessment. Therefore, you must complete the assessments in this course in the order in which they are presented.
Position papers are a method to evaluate the most current evidence and policies related to health care issues. They offer a way for researchers to explore the views of any number of organizations around a topic. This can help you to develop your own position and approach to care around a topic or issue.
This assessment will focus on analyzing position papers about an issue related to addiction, chronicity, emotional and mental health, genetics and genomics, or immunity. Many of these topics are quickly evolving as technology advances, or as we attempt to push past stigmas. For example, technology advances and DNA sequencing provide comprehensive information to allow treatment to become more targeted and effective for the individual. However as a result, nurses must be able to understand and teach patients about the impact of this information. With this great power comes concerns that patient conditions are protected in an ethical and compassionate manner.
By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and assessment criteria:
Competency 1: Design evidence-based advanced nursing care for achieving high-quality population outcomes.
Evaluate the evidence and positions of others that could support a team's approach to improving the quality and outcomes of care for a specific issue in a target population.
Evaluate the evidence and positions of others that are contrary to a team's approach to improving the quality and outcomes of care for a specific issue in a target population.
Competency 2: Evaluate the efficiency and effectiveness of interprofessional interventions in achieving desired population health outcomes.
Explain the role of the interprofessional team in facilitating improvements for a specific issue in a target population.
Competency 3: Analyze population health outcomes in terms of their implications for health policy advocacy.
Explain a position with regard to health outcomes for a specific issue in a target population.
Competency 4: Communicate effectively with diverse audiences, in an appropriate form and style, consistent with organizational, professional, and scholarly standards.
Communicate an initial viewpoint regarding a specific issue in a target population and a synthesis of existing positions in a logically structured and concise manner, writing content clearly with correct use of grammar, punctuation, and spelling.

Overall Scenario Always Fresh Foods Inc. is a food distributor w.docxjacksnathalie
Overall Scenario
Always Fresh Foods Inc. is a food distributor with a central headquarters and main warehouse in Colorado, as well as two regional warehouses in Nevada and Virginia. The company runs Microsoft Windows 2019 on its servers and Microsoft Windows 10 on its workstations. There are 2 database servers, 4 application servers, 2 web servers, and 25 workstation computers in the headquarters offices and main warehouse. The network uses workgroups, and users are created locally on each computer. Employees from the regional warehouses connect to the Colorado network via a virtual private network (VPN) connection. Due to a recent security breach, Always Fresh wants to increase the overall security of its network and systems. They have chosen to use a solid multilayered defense to reduce the likelihood that an attacker will successfully compromise the company’s information security. Multiple layers of defense throughout the IT infrastructure makes the process of compromising any protected resource or data more difficult than any single security control. In this way, Always Fresh protects its business by protecting its information.
Scenario 1
Assume you are an entry-level security administrator working for Always Fresh. You have been asked to evaluate the option of adding Active Directory to the company’s network.
Tasks
Create a summary report to management that answers the following questions to satisfy the key points of interest regarding the addition of Active Directory to the network:
1. System administrators currently create users on each computer where users need access. In Active Directory, where will system administrators create users?
2. How will the procedures for making changes to the user accounts, such as password changes, be different in Active Directory?
3. What action should administrators take for the existing workgroup user accounts after converting to Active Directory?
4. How will the administrators resolve differences between user accounts defined on different computers? In other words, if user accounts have different settings on different computers, how will Active Directory address that issue? (Hint: Consider security identifiers [SIDs].)

Overview
Create a 15-minute oral presentation (3–4 pages) that examines the moral and ethical issues related to triaging patients in an emergency room.
By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and assessment criteria:
· Competency 1: Explain the effect of health care policies, legislation, and legal issues on health care delivery and patient outcomes.
. Explain the health care policies that can affect emergency care.
. Recommend evidence-based decision-making strategies nurses can use during triage.
· Competency 3: Apply professional nursing ethical standards and principles to the decision-making process.
. Describe the moral and ethical challenges nurses can face when following hospital policies and protocols.
. Explain how health care disparities impact treatment decisions.
· Competency 4: Communicate in a manner that is consistent with expectations of nursing professionals.
. Write content clearly and logically, with correct use of grammar, punctuation, and mechanics.
. Correctly format citations and references using APA style.
Context
Working in an emergency room gives rise to ethical dilemmas. Due to time restraints and the patient's cognitive impairment and lack of medical history, complications can and do occur. The nurse has very little time to get detailed patient information. He or she must make a quick assessment and take action based on hospital protocol. The organized chaos of the emergency room presents unique ethical challenge, which is why nurses are required to have knowledge of ethical concepts and principles.
Questions to consider
To deepen your understanding, you are encouraged to consider the questions below and discuss them with a fellow learner, a work associate, an interested friend, or a member of your professional community.
· How does a triage nurse decide which patient gets seen first?
· How does health disparity affect the triage nurse's decision making?
· What ethical and moral issues does the triage nurse take into account when making a decision?
· What are triage-level designations?

Over the years, the style and practice of leadership within law enforcement agencies has gradually changed. In the past, leadership was primarily relegated to one individual within the department. However, there has been a transformation in leadership theory resulting in a more dynamic, multifaceted nature of teamwork, inclusion, and dispersed leadership. More and more, police chiefs are being encouraged to move toward a more participatory leadership style of management, one that encourages collaboration and cooperation in the decision-making process.

Think of Hubert de Givenchy and, if you know anything about
fashion, you think of the little black dress. Or, more
specifically, the little black dress worn by Audrey Hepburn in
Breakfast at Tiffany's.
Even though he loved monochrome, Givenchy didn't invent the
LBD.
Chanel managed to nab that honour - although it's worth noting
that black dresses were totally on trend among 17th-century
Puritans. Bof, as Coco might have said. She who drones on
about originality has a short memory.
The truth is no one can take full credit for the LBD, but
Givenchy can take credit for Audrey, and Audrey can take
credit for Givenchy. She wore him from the age of 25, when he
designed her costumes for the film Sabrina, until she died, aged
64 in 1993.
By contrast, as Drusilla Beyfus's new biography of Hubert de
Givenchy (published by Quadrille, Pounds 15) recounts,
Jacqueline Kennedy was obliged to abandon him once JFK
reached the White House.
Like Audrey, Jackie admired the patrician Frenchman's
luxurious brand of dramatic minimalism but, for political
expediency, she had to take up with American designers, such
as Oleg Cassini, who was given strict instructions to more or
2. less replicate Givenchy's style.
As if that weren't sneaky enough, post-Camelot, Jackie seems to
have decided that Givenchy had become old-fashioned. The
crisp rolled collars, stiff couture-y fabrics and pillbox hats that
were quintessential Givenchy signatures of the Sixties
(according to Vogue, Givenchy's ideas on the hat were "a
contribution to female happiness") had, as more than one
fashion critic sniffily observed at the time, become the
accoutrements of air hostesses everywhere.
In fact, Beyfus's tome is not quite a biography; more a mini-
coffee table book, albeit intelligently written and gorgeously
illustrated with photographs by Irving Penn, Cecil Beaton,
Norman Parkinson and other luminaries. Beyfus, who worked on
The Daily Telegraph in the Sixties and at British Vogue in the
Seventies (her daughter Alexandra Shulman now edits it) met
the film-star-handsome, 6ft 6in Givenchy several times. It's that
first-hand contact that lends Beyfus's observations a freshness,
elevating this book high above the recycled platitudes and stale
myths that often populate such efforts.
Hubert de Givenchy, as Beyfus points out with the same
precision that the couturier used to sculpt his Sabrina necklines
(a boat-neck he designed to conceal the hollows beneath
Hepburn's collarbones), is rather an overlooked figure these
days.
Saint Laurent, Chanel, Cristobal Balenciaga, Schiaparelli -
they're the legends of fashion history now, whereas Hubert...
well, that air stewardess jibe contained a germ of truth.
When I was a Vogue rookie I was dispatched to fill a seat at a
Givenchy show and was bored to distraction. He was still
designing (or at least taking his bow) in those days, still upright
and good-looking and wearing the white lab coat he always
slipped over his suits. But his best creative days were behind
him. Those poor models really did look as though they were
wearing flight attendant kit, and not the slick Sixties uniforms,
but the awkwardly proportioned Eighties ones.
Yet in his day, Givenchy combined the forward-thinking
3. architectural statements of his beloved Balenciaga with his own
easy chic. In the Fifties, American Vogue lauded him for
inventing separates. Since doublet and hose had been around for
four centuries, what they probably meant was that Givenchy
repurposed them, making them seem opulent yet fresh.
Audrey was his perfect mascot.
Intuitively modern and graceful, she could make the stiffest,
most classic ballgown look as breezy as the little black Beatnik
sweaters and capri pants she wore in Funny Face. She and
Hubert, whose equally nonchalant approach to luxury was
expressed in his moated manor house outside Paris - which was,
he said, "Paradise, but on a scale for living" - hit it off not just
as style accomplices but friends.
Yet arguably, Audrey inadvertently harmed Givenchy's legacy
almost as much as she adorned it. That rare creature, a
genuinely stylish actress, she made everything look so good that
there were plenty who later dismissed Givenchy as an average
designer who got lucky.It's true that he was blessed to have met
her (although costume designer Edith Head omitted to mention
his contribution when she won her Oscar for Sabrina). He was
supremely lucky to be working in an era when fashion shows
were expected to provide real clothes, rather than unleashing
provocative images for the next ad campaign. But he also
helped shape the look of the early Sixties, without which Mad
Men, J Crew and all who sail with them, would be sunk.

Hubert de Givenchy Remembers Mellon
By MILES SOCHA
PARIS
-- When Cristobal Balenciaga closed his Paris fashion house in
1968, he and jewelry designer Jean Michel Schlumberger
marched American society icon Bunny Mellon across the
Avenue George V, delivering a crucial client to the house of
Givenchy -- and sparking what would become a lifelong
friendship with its founding couturier.
Hubert de Givenchy remembers exactly how Mellon looked that
day.
"She was wearing a navy blue T-shirt and a cotton skirt," he
recalled during an interview on Wednesday, noting he spoke to
Mellon by telephone virtually every week, right up until her
death on Monday at age 103. "She had a lot of taste and a lot of
ideas."
The designer would go on to dress Mellon, a garden designer,
philanthropist and WASP society icon, until his own retirement
from fashion in 1995, turning out everything from gardening
hats to evening gowns galore for her "because she had a lot of
functions at the National Gallery of Art and other important
dinners in Washington."
Given her broad interests, charitable works, travels and homes
stretching from Virginia and New York to Antigua and Paris,
"she needed a big wardrobe," de Givenchy said.
"Not only was she an important client, she quickly became a
true friend, full of talent and with so many interests," de
Givenchy said. "She taught me a lot in the garden."
The designer accompanied Mellon on chartered boat trips
through Greece and Turkey, and they also explored France
together, a country she loved and appreciated greatly.
While she supported a lot of restoration works in France and
particularly at Versailles, including Louis XIV's fabled Potager
du Roi, whose 17th-century splendor was a benchmark in her
gardening career, Mellon never sought recognition for her
6. generosity.
Her understated nature was reflected in her clothes and her
meticulously decorated homes. "There was never a sense of too
much," de Givenchy marveled.
Mellon had a fun-loving side, and he once took her dancing at
Studio 54 in Manhattan. "She found it very amusing," he
recalled. "She loved music."
Mellon's appreciation for her wardrobe extended to every
member of the Givenchy atelier, whom she kept busy
throughout the year. De Givenchy said every Christmas, she
would dispatch a basket of small pouches, one for each of the
40 or 50 women and men in the atelier. Each contained a bundle
of U.S. dollars.Bunny Mellon in 1965.

Hubert de Givenchy: Can Teach You About Fashion
Harper's Bazaar 3523 (Jun 2005): 168.
Ten years after stepping down from the house he founded and
on the eve of another designer's ascension to the label that bears
his name, Hubert de Givenchy talks to Dana Thomas about his
successors, his dear friend Cristóbal Balenciaga's influence and
the current state of design
8. Hubert de Givenchy opens the door himself. A regal man of
imposing stature -- he stands six feet six -- he kindly ushers you
into the soaring salon of his stately 18th-century home in Paris.
As his Labrador Junior comes loping in, Givenchy invites you
to take a seat on the sofa. Behind him on the oak-paneled walls
hang a large Picasso called Le Grand Pan, a collage by Braque
and paintings by Léger and Matisse. Outside the double glass
doors of the adjoining dining room is the manicured jardin à la
française, with its emerald-green lawn as neat as a carpet and
box trees trimmed into cones and spheres. Despite being in the
heart of Paris, all you hear in his two-story apartment in this
hôtel particulier is birds singing. It's a peaceful place, calm in
the way you imagine your life will be once you are retired, too.
But peaceful is the last thing the 78-year-old couturier, who
helped Audrey Hepburn shape her flawless style and who was
Cristóbal Balenciaga's friend and confidant, is these days. In the
10 years since he retired from his house, which he helmed for
43 years, Givenchy has watched quietly as three designers and
two presidents have come and gone. As the house of Givenchy
embarks on a new chapter, with a new president (former
Moschino head Marco Gobbetti, who took over last year) and a
new designer (30-year-old Italian Riccardo Tisci, who will
present his first Givenchy collection during the haute couture
shows in Paris in July), Givenchy the man has decided to remain
silent no longer. On this warm spring day -- dressed in a crisp
blue shirt with a small monogram, brown wide-wale corduroy
trousers and a navy sweater tied jauntily around his shoulders,
his snow-white hair combed smartly back, turquoise eyes clear
and focused -- Givenchy settles into a straw-weave-covered
Billy Baldwin chair and, in his always polite, even-timbred
French, opens up.
In the decade since he stepped down, Givenchy has been far
from idle. He led the restoration of the King's Kitchen Garden
at Versailles, served four years as president of Christie's France
9. and is now honorary president of the Vionnet Foundation. ("I
admire the work of Madame Vionnet immensely. Who wasn't
influenced by her?") But his biggest project by far is the
Cristóbal Balenciaga Foundation in Getaria, Spain, the small
Basque village where Balenciaga was born. "The Balenciaga
Foundation is a great occupation and for me a great passion,"
Givenchy says. "We had an extraordinary friendship. I listened
to him. I listened to him speak about fashion, construction, all
that he knew." Soon all of that information will be on offer to
the public when the foundation's museum, an ambitious
undertaking 12 years in the making, officially opens in two
years. The archives will be stored in a former home of the
family of Queen Fabiola of Belgium, and the exhibitions will be
staged in a large glass addition designed by the architect Julián
Argilagos.
Givenchy also proudly announces there will be retrospectives
honoring Balenciaga at the Musée de la Mode et du Textile in
Paris next year and at the Victoria & Albert Museum in London
in 2007. He's not surprised by the sudden interest in his friend.
"Balenciaga represented perfection in creation and balance. He
worked on the silhouette of a garment. There was a refinement
that doesn't exist anymore." Givenchy himself is helping put
together two shows at the Mona Bismarck Foundation in Paris:
one of Balenciaga's creations for the American-born Countess
Bismarck and a second of Balenciaga's wedding gowns for
Queen Fabiola and other aristocrats. "Balenciaga didn't just
make dresses; it was true architecture," Givenchy recalls. "At
the same time, he was so avant-garde. He was the first to do
tweed as a fabric for cocktails. He understood that women could
take what they wore during the day and just add a hat or a piece
of jewelry to dress it up -- that was truly a revolutionary idea
then. But times and fashion were changing. And they have
changed even more today."
Indeed they have, and in Givenchy's view, not necessarily for
10. the better. In fact, Givenchy finds the direction in which fashion
is going "distressing." Other than two or three houses that
continue to address customers' desires and a handful of
designers -- such as Loulou de la Falaise, Azzedine Alaîa and
Hervé Leroux, who designs Guy Laroche -- there are few, in
Givenchy's opinion, who are contemporary and experts in
design; he believes there is little to admire about modern
fashion. "Sure, it is head-turning," Givenchy says, "but one
could not step out of the house like that. It's a false image.
Balenciaga always told me, 'Hubert, the most important thing
when dressing your clients is to be honest.' He was a man with
total integrity. We made dresses that women could wear. Today
we make dresses to sell handbags, shoes, accessories. When you
go down the Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré, you see only store
windows filled with sacks and shoes. What does that mean? I'll
tell you what it means: There is no fashion."
It's a harsh assessment, to be sure. But it comes from perhaps
the one person in fashion today who has both the vast
experience and the distance to see things clearly. Marquis
Hubert James Marcel Taffin de Givenchy began his career at 17
as an assistant to Jacques Fath and later worked for Robert
Piguet, Lucien Lelong and Elsa Schiaparelli. In February 1952,
Givenchy launched his own house, with Fath's star models,
Bettina Graziani and Suzy Parker, as his muses. When
Hollywood ingenue Audrey Hepburn asked Givenchy to provide
her wardrobe for Billy Wilder's Sabrina, he became the first
French couturier to successfully cross over into American
cinema and forge the link between the two worlds that still
thrives today. In 1957, he asked Hepburn to be the image of one
of his first perfumes, L'Interdit, beginning the trend of celebrity
endorsement of cosmetics. He dressed First Lady Jackie
Kennedy for a state visit to Paris in 1961 and Grace Kelly when
she was princess of Monaco, in addition to socialites Babe
Paley, Marella Agnelli and Gloria Guinness when they were the
highest of high society. He embraced licensing when it became
11. the new business model and was one of the first, in 1988, to sell
his company to a corporation -- LVMH, which was run by
Vuitton heir Henry Recamier.
At the time, it seemed the wise thing to do. "Monsieur Recamier
was a very elegant and charming man who could give the
company a second wind," Givenchy says. Less than two years
later, Bernard Arnault wrested control of LVMH from
Recamier. Givenchy describes the next five years as
"continually changing," and by the end of his contract, which
was up in 1995, both he and Arnault had had enough. Givenchy
was replaced on the womenswear side first by John Galliano,
for less than a year, followed by Alexander McQueen for five,
Julien Macdonald for three and now Tisci. Givenchy has never
met or spoken with any of them -- "It would serve nothing" --
though he did exchange letters with Macdonald. "He wrote very
kind things, and I found him to be a very gracious young man --
better than Mr. McQueen, who immediately started to say mean
things about me when I had never said or done anything against
him," Givenchy remembers. "To say disagreeable things about
me and Audrey -- that wounded me." (Says McQueen in
response: "It was never a personal attack on either Hubert or
Audrey. They had a relationship, and it worked for them and the
house during that period. But a house needs to constantly renew
itself and appeal to the world today. LVMH based the house's
reputation on a long-lost ideal. I thought it deserved a modern
identity.")
Of course, Givenchy still has a soft spot for Audrey Hepburn.
She was more than a muse; she was one of his best friends.
Often he would answer the phone in his atelier and, he recalls,
"She'd say, 'I know you are busy, but I want to send you a big
kiss,' and she'd hang up." Hepburn is still a presence in
Givenchy's home and life. Though most of his archives are at
the Avenue George V headquarters -- they were included in the
sale of the company -- Givenchy has a few of Hepburn's dresses
12. upstairs in his closet, pieces she gave him, including the
sculptural long black sheath she wore in Breakfast at Tiffany's.
In his opinion, there are very few actresses today who could fill
her slippers. French actress Carole Bouquet "has a face, and she
knows how to dress," he says. And he has always believed Julia
Roberts would have been a terrific image for Givenchy
perfumes. "She has an extraordinary smile," he muses. "If she
dressed in a more precise style, then we would truly remember
her." What made Hepburn special, he says, was a certain
"elegance about her. She knew how to walk. She knew what she
wanted. She knew the faults in her face; she knew herself
perfectly. She was true, honest." A trait, obviously, that
Givenchy admires.
