Assignment 2.2 Justification Report - Part 2Due Week 5 and wort.docxsherni1
Assignment 2.2: Justification Report - Part 2
Due Week 5 and worth 150 points
In Part 1 of your Justification Report assignment, you built up the following sections: Problem Statement, Overview of Alternatives, Criteria, and Methods. In Part 2, you will revise Part 1 based on your instructor's suggestions and add to it the following sections: Evaluation of Alternatives, Findings and Analysis, and References.
Use the basic outline below to draft your paper. Organize your responses to each question under the following section headings:
· Evaluation of Alternatives (for Questions 1-3)
· Findings and Analysis (for Questions 4-5)
· References (for Question 6)
Write a two (2) page, single-spaced report in which you:
1. Research the two (2) alternatives (i.e. possible solutions) that you've identified in your Part 1 Evaluation of Alternatives section. Record bibliographic information during research.
a. Example: You might research other organizations that have attempted similar solutions to the problem you have identified and explore the results of those experiments.
2. Use what you discover in your research to evaluate each alternative by each of your five (5) criteria.
a. Example: If your research revealed that four companies similar to yours increased productivity after allowing their workers to telework from home three days per week, you might conclude that one of your suggested alternatives – in this case, the option to telework from home three days per week – satisfies one of your criterion of “Productivity” as a high-potential solution to a problem you’ve identified (of decreased worker morale and productivity at Doe’s Electronics). However, additional research might frustrate a recommendation of this alternative if it is found to fall short of other criteria while a second alternative fares better. For instance, a telework alternative might be found to be too costly to implement; too frustrating for consumers who prefer daily, in-person customer service; or too divergent from the company’s brand, “Always there for you!”�
3. Organize the assignment by your criteria. Explain in narrative form how each of your two (2) alternatives stacks up against your first criterion. Next, explain how each alternative stacks up against your second criterion, etc.
a. Example: An abbreviated outline of what this longer section might look like based on the above example is below (Note: Only the first two [2] of five [5] required criteria are included to give you a feel for the structure). Your researched findings, represented as circled bullets below, should be explained in two to five (2-5) sentences. Include in-text citations and follow up with References in APA style):

Develop a 5–10-year strategic plan for achieving specific health.docxkhenry4
Develop a 5–10-year strategic plan for achieving specific health care quality and safety improvements, based on the analysis you completed in Assessment 1. Use either an AI approach or your SWOT analysis and a chosen strategic planning model.
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.
Evaluation of strategic choices is important. The methods for selecting strategic alternatives help leaders organize significant issues to support decision making. However, it is important that the techniques do not make the decision. Rather, leaders should use the techniques to reveal the inherent situation and to organize their thought processes. This assessment provides you with an opportunity to evaluate and apply some of the techniques for successful strategy development and implementation.
By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and assessment criteria:
Competency 1: Evaluate qualities and skills that promote effective leadership within health care organizations.
Evaluate the leadership qualities and skills that will be most important to successfully implementing a strategic plan and sustaining strategic direction.
Competency 2: Apply strategies to lead high-performing health care teams to meet organizational quality and safety goals.
Develop strategic goal statements and outcomes that support the achievement of specific quality and safety improvements for a care setting.
Justify the relevance of proposed strategic goals and outcomes in relation to the mission, vision, and values of a care setting.
Competency 3: Apply cultural, ethical, and regulatory considerations to leadership decision making.
Analyze the extent to which strategic goals and outcomes address the use of technology and the ethical, cultural, and regulatory environments.
Competency 4: Integrate leadership and health care theories into the role of the nurse leader.
Explain how relevant leadership and health care theories will be used to help achieve proposed strategic goals and objectives.
Competency 5: Communicate with stakeholders and constituencies to build collaborative partnerships and create inclusive work environments.
Communicate analyses clearly and in a way that demonstrates professionalism and respect for stakeholders and colleagues.
Integrate relevant and credible sources of evidence to support assertions, correctly formatting citations and references using APA style.
As you prepare to complete this assessment, you may want to think about other related issues to deepen your understanding or broaden your viewpoint. 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. Note th.

Description of the problems
The two major workplace issues to be discussed in this paper include discrimination and safety within the workplace. Discrimination refers to a situation in which some employees within an organization are highly favoured in comparison to others. For instance, some organizations may favour particular group of people for each and every kind of leadership position at the extent of depriving others this chance even though they may be qualified for the position. Discrimination comes in various ways; in some scenarios it may be viewed from the point of using the organization’s resources whereby some employees may not be allowed to use some resources as a result of discrimination. The issue of discrimination needs to be addressed from the fact that an organization may end up losing potential employees as a result of discrimination. Discrimination is normally brought as a result of having a diversity of employees within a workplace. Currently, researches conducted in different organizations have shown that organizations with a higher diversity of employees will always have great ideas for creativity and also innovation. From the fact that discrimination results into loss of potential employees, this clearly shows that the level of creativity and innovation with as well decrease and therefore making this issue very sensitive and thus needs to be addressed (Acocella, 2007).
The second major problem that needs to be addressed is safety from the fact that organizations deal with various tools and equipment which may result into harmful implications on the employees. Safety may also be looked into in different angles; for instance there is the physical safety in which the employer should ensure each employee is protected against any risk that may end up resulting into harmful effects. Emotional safety is also important and the employee should ensure this by providing a stress free environment for working. Safety is a very important issue to be addressed from the fact that human life is very important. A human life once lost can never be retrieved since no one has the capability of giving another life. This makes this problem very necessary to be addressed.
Solution
s for the problems to be implemented
Strategies need to be implemented to address the issues above. For the case of discrimination, various steps need to be applied to make sure the problem is addressed. The employers needs to sit and discuss deeply with an experienced business attorney who will help in the formulation of discrimination policies for the workplace. The policies should be in line with the discrimination laws for best results. It is from th.

Write a 4-7 page analysis of your care setting that supports develop.docxjohnbbruce72945
Write a 4-7 page analysis of your care setting that supports development of a strategic plan and includes both the discovery and dream phases of an appreciative inquiry (AI) project and a strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT) analysis of the care setting.
Introduction
Identifying analysis techniques for assessing competitive advantage is important for building health care strategy. Sustaining health care competitive advantage requires that leaders understand environmental demands to assist with minimizing weakness and threats from the external environment. This assessment provides you with an opportunity to examine your health care environment to determine whether what is being accomplished in your organization, department, team, community project, or other care setting is making a positive difference.
Note:
You will use the results of this analysis to develop a strategic plan in Assessment 2.
Preparation
You have been asked to conduct an analysis of your care setting that will result in two potential pathways toward a strategic plan to improve health care quality and safety in your organization, department, team, community project, or other care setting. To accomplish this, you will take two approaches to the analysis:
Complete the discovery and dream phases of an appreciative inquiry (AI) project.
Conduct a strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats (SWOT) analysis.
To help ensure that your analysis is well-received, the requester has suggested that you:
Present your analysis results in four parts:
Part 1: Appreciative Inquiry Discovery and Dream.
Part 2: SWOT Analysis.
Part 3: Comparison of Approaches.
Part 4: Analysis of Relevant Leadership Characteristics and Skills.
Your analysis should be 4–7 pages in length.
Note:
Remember, you can submit all, or a portion, of your draft plan to Smarthinking for feedback before you submit the final version for this assessment. However, be mindful of the turnaround time for receiving feedback, if you plan on using this free service.
As you prepare to complete this assessment, you may want to think about other related issues to deepen your understanding or broaden your viewpoint. 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. Note that these questions are for your own development and exploration and do not need to be completed or submitted as part of your assessment.
One key aspect to being an effective leader, manager, or administrator is an awareness of your leadership strengths, weaknesses, and style.
How would you assess your general leadership, communication, and relationship-building skills?
How would describe your leadership style?
Imagine the future for a care setting that is your place of practice or one in which you would like to work.
What aspirational goals can you envision that would lead to improvement.

Purpose: To identify a problem or concern that nursing can change and develop a PICO question to guide the change project.
Directions: Use the form below to complete the PICO assignment in Milestone #1. This includes filling in the table with information about your research question and your PICO elements.
Step 1: Identify the problem. What have you noticed in your work or school environment that isn’t achieving the desired patient or learning outcomes? What needs to change in nursing, what can you change with the support of evidence in the literature? Briefly describe the problem or practice issue that you want to research. What is your practice area; clinical, education, or administration?
Step 2: How was the practice issues identified? How did you come to know this was a problem in your clinical practice? Review the listed concerns and check all that apply.
Step 3: What is the scope of the problem? Does this problem affect an individual, population, or an entire institution?
Step 4: Select the key PICO terms for searching the evidence. Clearly define your PICO question. List each element P (problem, population, or problem), I (intervention), C (Comparison with other treatment/current practice), and O (Desired outcome). Is the potential solution something for which you (as nurse or student) can find a solution through evidence research? Look in your book for guidelines to developing your PICO question.
Step 5: What evidence must be gathered? Everyone should have a literature search. However, what other sources of reliable information will be helpful for your particular question?
Step 6: State the search question in narrow, manageable terms. What terms will you use in order to make sure that your search is wide enough to obtain required information but narrow enough to keep it focused? How will you narrow your search if needed?

Assignment 2.2 Justification Report - Part 2Due Week 5 and wort.docxsherni1
Assignment 2.2: Justification Report - Part 2
Due Week 5 and worth 150 points
In Part 1 of your Justification Report assignment, you built up the following sections: Problem Statement, Overview of Alternatives, Criteria, and Methods. In Part 2, you will revise Part 1 based on your instructor's suggestions and add to it the following sections: Evaluation of Alternatives, Findings and Analysis, and References.
Use the basic outline below to draft your paper. Organize your responses to each question under the following section headings:
· Evaluation of Alternatives (for Questions 1-3)
· Findings and Analysis (for Questions 4-5)
· References (for Question 6)
Write a two (2) page, single-spaced report in which you:
1. Research the two (2) alternatives (i.e. possible solutions) that you've identified in your Part 1 Evaluation of Alternatives section. Record bibliographic information during research.
a. Example: You might research other organizations that have attempted similar solutions to the problem you have identified and explore the results of those experiments.
2. Use what you discover in your research to evaluate each alternative by each of your five (5) criteria.
a. Example: If your research revealed that four companies similar to yours increased productivity after allowing their workers to telework from home three days per week, you might conclude that one of your suggested alternatives – in this case, the option to telework from home three days per week – satisfies one of your criterion of “Productivity” as a high-potential solution to a problem you’ve identified (of decreased worker morale and productivity at Doe’s Electronics). However, additional research might frustrate a recommendation of this alternative if it is found to fall short of other criteria while a second alternative fares better. For instance, a telework alternative might be found to be too costly to implement; too frustrating for consumers who prefer daily, in-person customer service; or too divergent from the company’s brand, “Always there for you!”�
3. Organize the assignment by your criteria. Explain in narrative form how each of your two (2) alternatives stacks up against your first criterion. Next, explain how each alternative stacks up against your second criterion, etc.
a. Example: An abbreviated outline of what this longer section might look like based on the above example is below (Note: Only the first two [2] of five [5] required criteria are included to give you a feel for the structure). Your researched findings, represented as circled bullets below, should be explained in two to five (2-5) sentences. Include in-text citations and follow up with References in APA style):

Develop a 5–10-year strategic plan for achieving specific health.docxkhenry4
Develop a 5–10-year strategic plan for achieving specific health care quality and safety improvements, based on the analysis you completed in Assessment 1. Use either an AI approach or your SWOT analysis and a chosen strategic planning model.
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.
Evaluation of strategic choices is important. The methods for selecting strategic alternatives help leaders organize significant issues to support decision making. However, it is important that the techniques do not make the decision. Rather, leaders should use the techniques to reveal the inherent situation and to organize their thought processes. This assessment provides you with an opportunity to evaluate and apply some of the techniques for successful strategy development and implementation.
By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and assessment criteria:
Competency 1: Evaluate qualities and skills that promote effective leadership within health care organizations.
Evaluate the leadership qualities and skills that will be most important to successfully implementing a strategic plan and sustaining strategic direction.
Competency 2: Apply strategies to lead high-performing health care teams to meet organizational quality and safety goals.
Develop strategic goal statements and outcomes that support the achievement of specific quality and safety improvements for a care setting.
Justify the relevance of proposed strategic goals and outcomes in relation to the mission, vision, and values of a care setting.
Competency 3: Apply cultural, ethical, and regulatory considerations to leadership decision making.
Analyze the extent to which strategic goals and outcomes address the use of technology and the ethical, cultural, and regulatory environments.
Competency 4: Integrate leadership and health care theories into the role of the nurse leader.
Explain how relevant leadership and health care theories will be used to help achieve proposed strategic goals and objectives.
Competency 5: Communicate with stakeholders and constituencies to build collaborative partnerships and create inclusive work environments.
Communicate analyses clearly and in a way that demonstrates professionalism and respect for stakeholders and colleagues.
Integrate relevant and credible sources of evidence to support assertions, correctly formatting citations and references using APA style.
As you prepare to complete this assessment, you may want to think about other related issues to deepen your understanding or broaden your viewpoint. 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. Note th.

Description of the problems
The two major workplace issues to be discussed in this paper include discrimination and safety within the workplace. Discrimination refers to a situation in which some employees within an organization are highly favoured in comparison to others. For instance, some organizations may favour particular group of people for each and every kind of leadership position at the extent of depriving others this chance even though they may be qualified for the position. Discrimination comes in various ways; in some scenarios it may be viewed from the point of using the organization’s resources whereby some employees may not be allowed to use some resources as a result of discrimination. The issue of discrimination needs to be addressed from the fact that an organization may end up losing potential employees as a result of discrimination. Discrimination is normally brought as a result of having a diversity of employees within a workplace. Currently, researches conducted in different organizations have shown that organizations with a higher diversity of employees will always have great ideas for creativity and also innovation. From the fact that discrimination results into loss of potential employees, this clearly shows that the level of creativity and innovation with as well decrease and therefore making this issue very sensitive and thus needs to be addressed (Acocella, 2007).
The second major problem that needs to be addressed is safety from the fact that organizations deal with various tools and equipment which may result into harmful implications on the employees. Safety may also be looked into in different angles; for instance there is the physical safety in which the employer should ensure each employee is protected against any risk that may end up resulting into harmful effects. Emotional safety is also important and the employee should ensure this by providing a stress free environment for working. Safety is a very important issue to be addressed from the fact that human life is very important. A human life once lost can never be retrieved since no one has the capability of giving another life. This makes this problem very necessary to be addressed.
Solution
s for the problems to be implemented
Strategies need to be implemented to address the issues above. For the case of discrimination, various steps need to be applied to make sure the problem is addressed. The employers needs to sit and discuss deeply with an experienced business attorney who will help in the formulation of discrimination policies for the workplace. The policies should be in line with the discrimination laws for best results. It is from th.

Write a 4-7 page analysis of your care setting that supports develop.docxjohnbbruce72945
Write a 4-7 page analysis of your care setting that supports development of a strategic plan and includes both the discovery and dream phases of an appreciative inquiry (AI) project and a strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT) analysis of the care setting.
Introduction
Identifying analysis techniques for assessing competitive advantage is important for building health care strategy. Sustaining health care competitive advantage requires that leaders understand environmental demands to assist with minimizing weakness and threats from the external environment. This assessment provides you with an opportunity to examine your health care environment to determine whether what is being accomplished in your organization, department, team, community project, or other care setting is making a positive difference.
Note:
You will use the results of this analysis to develop a strategic plan in Assessment 2.
Preparation
You have been asked to conduct an analysis of your care setting that will result in two potential pathways toward a strategic plan to improve health care quality and safety in your organization, department, team, community project, or other care setting. To accomplish this, you will take two approaches to the analysis:
Complete the discovery and dream phases of an appreciative inquiry (AI) project.

FI N 5 1 3 – Health Care Finance
Course Syllabus
Introduction
This syllabus contains the lesson assignments for FIN513 – Health Care Finance. This course is
designed to introduce health care accounting and finance issues that have become part of the
everyday life of most health care executives. The course covers types of financial decisions that
health care executives are most likely to be involved with and provides materials that will help
you understand the conceptual basis and mechanics of financial analysis and decision making as
they pertain to the health care industry sector.
The general basis of financial decision-making in any business is almost always built upon
understanding three critical elements. First, most financial decisions are based upon the use of
accounting information. Second, all business units operate within an industry. The health area
industry is a huge, complex industry that is unlike other industries in many areas. Third, both
accounting and finance are, in many ways, subsets of economics.
Expected Student Learning Outcomes
Upon the successful completion of this course you should be able to:
• Appraise the importance and uses of financial information in health care organizations.
• Explain the common ownership forms of health care organizations, along with their
advantages and disadvantages.
• Describe factors that influence the financial viability of a health care organization.
• Respond to a compliance audit or investigation, particularly when the subject of that
inquiry includes financial records.
• Explain the primary financial objective of a health care firm, and the critical drivers of
financial performance.
• List and describe the requirements for effective financial planning and policy-making.

Your Instructor’s Name:
Purpose: To identify a problem or concern that nursing can change and develop a PICO question to guide the change project.
Directions: Use the form below to complete the PICO assignment in Milestone #1. This includes filling in the table with information about your research question and your PICO elements.
Step 1: Identify the problem. What have you noticed in your work or school environment that isn’t achieving the desired patient or learning outcomes? What needs to change in nursing, what can you change with the support of evidence in the literature? Briefly describe the problem or practice issue that you want to research. What is your practice area; clinical, education, or administration?
Step 2: How was the practice issues identified? How did you come to know this was a problem in your clinical practice? Review the listed concerns and check all that apply.
Step 3: What is the scope of the problem? Does this problem affect an individual, population, or an entire institution?
Step 4: Select the key PICO terms for searching the evidence. Clearly define your PICO question. List each element P (problem, population, or problem), I (intervention), C (Comparison with other treatment/current practice), and O (Desired outcome). Is the potential solution something for which you (as nurse or student) can find a solution through evidence research? Look in your book for guidelines to developing your PICO question.
Step 5: What evidence must be gathered? Everyone should have a literature search. However, what other sources of reliable information will be helpful for your particular question?
Step 6: State the search question in narrow, manageable terms. What terms will you use in order to make sure that your search is wide enough to obtain required information but narrow enough to keep it focused? How will you narrow your search if needed?

The 30 June 2019 local elections in Albania took place in a context of deep political polarization and crisis. The main opposition parties boycotted the elections and called on voters to abstain. As a result, many mayoral races were uncontested. The elections suffered from a lack of trust in the impartiality of the election administration due to its unbalanced composition. While voting and counting were carried out efficiently on election day, the broader process failed to provide voters with a genuine choice between political alternatives. The elections did not resolve the underlying political disputes and the country remained in a state of political uncertainty.

Changes in survey mode for conducting panel surveys may contribute significantly to
survey error. This article explores the causes and consequences of such changes in
survey mode. The authors describe how and why the choice of survey mode often
causes changes to be made to the wording of questions, as well as the reasons that
identically worded questions often produce different answers when administered
through different modes. The authors provide evidence that answers may change as a
result of different visual layouts for otherwise identical questions and suggest ways
to keep measurement the same despite changes in survey mode.
Keywords: survey mode; questionnaire; panel survey; measurement; survey error
Most panel studies require measurement of the same variables at different
times. Often, participants are asked questions, several days, weeks, months,
or years apart to measure change in some characteristics of interest to the
investigation. These characteristics might include political attitudes, satis-
faction with a health care provider, frequency of a behavior, ownership of
financial resources, or level of educational attainment. Whatever the charac-
teristic of interest, it is important that the question used to ascertain it perform
the same across multiple data collections.
In addition, declining survey response rates, particularly for telephone
surveys, have encouraged researchers to use multiple modes of data collec-
tion during the administration of a single cross-sectional survey. Encouraged
by the availability of more survey modes than in the past and evidence that a
change in modes produces higher response rates (Dillman 2002), surveyors

Fake news: Personal responsibility must trump intellectual laziness
By Matt Chan January 4, 2017
Where do you get your news? That question has become incredibly important given the results of our Presidential Election. How many times have you heard, “I read a news story on Facebook and …” The problem: Facebook is not a news service; it’s a “social media” site whose purpose is to connect like-minded friends and family, to provide you with social connections, and online entertainment.
For Asian Americans social media provides an important and useful way of connecting socially and in some cases politically, but there is a downside. The downside is how social media actually works. These sites employ elaborate algorithms to track and analyze your posts, likes, and dislikes to provide you with a custom experience unique to you. The truth is you are being marketed to, not informed. What looks like news, is not really news, it’s personal validation. All in an attempt to keep you on the site longer, to click a few more things, to make you feel good about what you’re reading. It makes it seem like most people agree with you because you’re only fed information and stories that validate your worldview.
On the other hand, real news is hard work. Its fact-based information presented by people who have checked, researched, and documented what they are presenting as the truth. Real news can be verified.
“Fake News” is, well, fake, often times entirely made-up or containing a hint of truth. Social media was largely responsible for pushing “fake news” stories that were entirely made up to drive clicks on websites. These clicks in turn generated money for the people promoting the stories. The more outrageous the story, the more clicks, the more revenue. When you factor in the algorithms that feed you what you like, you can clearly see the more “fake news” you consume on social media, the more is pushed your way. There’s an abundance of pseudo news sites that merely re-post and curate existing stories, adding their bias to validate their audience’s beliefs, no matter how crazy or mainstream. It is curated solely for you. Now factor in that nearly 44% of Americans obtain some or most of their news from social media and you have a very toxic mix.
The mainstream news media has also fallen into this validation trap. You have one news network that solely reflects the right wing, others that take the view of the left-center leaning, and what is lost are the facts and context, the balance we need to evaluate, learn, and understand the world. People seeking fact-based journalism lose, because the more extreme the media becomes to entice consumers with provocative headlines and click-bait to earn more money, the less their news is fact-based and becomes more opinion driven.
There was a time when fact-based reporting was required of broadcast news. It was called “The Fairness Doctrin ...

NOTICE: Any person who knowingly files a statement of claim containing any misrepresentation or any false, incomplete or misleading information may
be guilty of a criminal act punishable under law and may be subject to civil penalties.
REFERS TO GOVERNMENT PROGRAMS ONLY
MEDICARE AND CHAMPUS PAYMENTS: A patient’s signature requests that payment be made and authorizes release of any information necessary to process
the claim and certifies that the information provided in Blocks 1 through 12 is true, accurate and complete. In the case of a Medicare claim, the patient’s signature
authorizes any entity to release to Medicare medical and nonmedical information, including employment status, and whether the person has employer group health
insurance, liability, no-fault, worker’s compensation or other insurance which is responsible to pay for the services for which the Medicare claim is made. See 42
CFR 411.24(a). If item 9 is completed, the patient’s signature authorizes release of the information to the health plan or agency shown. In Medicare assigned or
CHAMPUS participation cases, the physician agrees to accept the charge determination of the Medicare carrier or CHAMPUS fiscal intermediary as the full charge,
and the patient is responsible only for the deductible, coinsurance and noncovered services. Coinsurance and the deductible are based upon the charge
determination of the Medicare carrier or CHAMPUS fiscal intermediary if this is less than the charge submitted. CHAMPUS is not a health insurance program but
makes payment for health benefits provided through certain affiliations with the Uniformed Services. Information on the patient’s sponsor should be provided in those
items captioned in “Insured”; i.e., items 1a, 4, 6, 7, 9, and 11.

Influence of new molecular prognostic markers in patients with karyotypically normal acute myeloid leukemia: recent advances
Mrózek, Krzysztofa; Döhner, Hartmutb; Bloomfield, Clara Da

Myeloid disease
Purpose of review Molecular study of cytogenetically normal acute myeloid leukemia is among the most active areas of leukemia research. Despite having the same normal karyotype, adults with de-novo cytogenetically normal acute myeloid leukemia who constitute the largest cytogenetic group of acute myeloid leukemia, are very diverse with respect to acquired gene mutations and gene expression changes. These genetic alterations affect clinical outcome and may assist in selection of proper treatment. Herein we critically summarize recent clinically relevant molecular genetic studies of cytogenetically normal acute myeloid leukemia.
Recent findings NPM1 gene mutations causing aberrant cytoplasmic localization of nucleophosmin have been demonstrated to be the most frequent submicroscopic alterations in cytogenetically normal acute myeloid leukemia and to confer improved prognosis, especially in patients without a concomitant FLT3 gene internal tandem duplication. Overexpressed BAALC, ERG and MN1 genes and expression of breast cancer resistance protein have been shown to confer poor prognosis. A gene-expression signature previously suggested to separate cytogenetically normal acute myeloid leukemia patients into prognostic subgroups has been validated on a different microarray platform, although gene-expression signature-based classifiers predicting outcome for individual patients with greater accuracy are still needed.
Summary The discovery of new prognostic markers has increased our understanding of leukemogenesis and may lead to improved prognostication and generation of novel risk-adapted therapies.

An update of current treatments for adult acute myeloid leukemia
Hervé Dombret and Claude Gardin
Abstract
Recent advances in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) biology and its genetic landscape should ultimately lead to more subset-specific AML therapies, ideally tailored to each patient's disease. Although a growing number of distinct AML subsets have been increasingly characterized, patient management has remained disappointingly uniform. If one excludes acute promyelocytic leukemia, current AML management still relies largely on intensive chemotherapy and allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), at least in younger patients who can tolerate such intensive treatments. Nevertheless, progress has been made, notably in terms of standard drug dose in ...

THEATER: WILSON'S 'MA RAINEY'S' OPENS
By FRANK RICH
Published: October 12, 1984, Friday
LATE in Act I of ''Ma Rainey's Black Bottom,'' a somber, aging band trombonist (Joe Seneca) tilts his head heavenward to sing the blues. The setting is a dilapidated Chicago recording studio of 1927, and the song sounds as old as time. ''If I had my way,'' goes the lyric, ''I would tear this old building down.''
Once the play has ended, that lyric has almost become a prophecy. In ''Ma Rainey's Black Bottom,'' the writer August Wilson sends the entire history of black America crashing down upon our heads. This play is a searing inside account of what white racism does to its victims - and it floats on the same authentic artistry as the blues music it celebrates. Harrowing as ''Ma Rainey's'' can be, it is also funny, salty, carnal and lyrical. Like his real-life heroine, the legendary singer Gertrude (Ma) Rainey, Mr. Wilson articulates a legacy of unspeakable agony and rage in a spellbinding voice.
The play is Mr. Wilson's first to arrive in New York, and it reached here, via the Yale Repertory Theater, under the sensitive hand of the man who was born to direct it, Lloyd Richards. On Broadway, Mr. Richards has honed ''Ma Rainey's'' to its finest form. What's more, the director brings us an exciting young actor - Charles S. Dutton - along with his extraordinary dramatist. One wonders if the electricity at the Cort is the same that audiences felt when Mr. Richards, Lorraine Hansberry and Sidney Poitier stormed into Broadway with ''A Raisin in the Sun'' a quarter-century ago.
As ''Ma Rainey's'' shares its director and Chicago setting with ''Raisin,'' so it builds on Hansberry's themes: Mr. Wilson's characters want to make it in white America. And, to a degree, they have. Ma Rainey (1886-1939) was among the first black singers to get a recording contract - albeit with a white company's ''race'' division. Mr. Wilson gives us Ma (Theresa Merritt) at the height of her fame. A mountain of glitter and feathers, she has become a despotic, temperamental star, complete with a retinue of flunkies, a fancy car and a kept young lesbian lover.
The evening's framework is a Paramount-label recording session that actually happened, but whose details and supporting players have been invented by the author. As the action swings between the studio and the band's warm-up room - designed by Charles Henry McClennahan as if they might be the festering last- chance saloon of ''The Iceman Cometh'' - Ma and her four accompanying musicians overcome various mishaps to record ''Ma Rainey's Black Bottom'' and other songs. During the delays, the band members smoke reefers, joke around and reminisce about past gigs on a well-traveled road stretching through whorehouses and church socials from New Orleans to Fat Back, Ark.
The musicians' speeches are like improvised band solos - variously fiz ...

-------------- Context ----------------
Vietnam’s development over the past 30 years has been remarkable. Economic and political reforms under Đổi Mới, launched in 1986, have spurred rapid economic growth, transforming what was then one of the world’s poorest nations into a lower middle-income country. Between 2002 and 2018, more than 45 million people were lifted out of poverty. Poverty rates declined sharply from over 70% to below 6% (US$3.2/day PPP), and GDP per capita increased by 2.5 times, standing over US$2,500 in 2018.
In the medium-term, Vietnam’s economic outlook is positive, despite signs of cyclical moderation in growth. After peaking at 7.1% in 2018, real GDP growth in 2019 is projected to slightly decelerate in 2019, led by weaker external demand and continued tightening of credit and fiscal policies. Real GDP growth is projected to remain robust at around 6.5% in 2020 and 2021. Annual headline inflation has been stable for the seven consecutive years – at single digits, trending towards 4% and below in recent years. The external balance remains under control and should continue to be financed by strong FDI inflows which reached almost US$18 billion in 2018 – accounting for almost 24% of total investment in the economy.
Vietnam is experiencing rapid demographic and social change. Its population reached 97 million in 2018 (up from about 60 million in 1986) and is expected to expand to 120 million before moderating around 2050. Today, 70% of the population is under 35 years of age, with a life expectancy of 76 years, the highest among countries in the region at similar income levels. But the population is rapidly aging. And an emerging middle class, currently accounting for 13% of the population, is expected to reach 26% by 2026.
Vietnam ranks 48 out of 157 countries on the human capital index (HCI), second in ASEAN behind Singapore. A Vietnamese child born today will be 67% as productive when she grows up as she could be if she enjoyed complete education and full health. Vietnam’s HCI is highest among middle-income countries, but there are some disparities within the country, especially for ethnic minorities. There would also be a need to upgrade the skill of the workforce to create productive jobs at a large scale in the future.
Over the last thirty years, the provision of basic services has significantly improved. Access of households to modern infrastructure services has increased dramatically. As of 2016, 99% of the population used electricity as their main source of lighting, up from 14 % in 1993. Access to clean water in rural areas has also improved, up from 17% in 1993 to 70% in 2016, while that figure for urban areas is above 95%.
Vietnam performs well on general education. Coverage and learning outcomes are high and equitably achieved in primary schools — evidenced by remarkably high scores in the Program for International Student Assessment (PISA) in 2012 and 2015, ...

Definition
Quantum mechanics is the part of material science identifying with the little.
It brings about what may have all the earmarks of being some extremely peculiar decisions about the physical world. At the size of particles and electrons, a significant number of the conditions of old style mechanics, which depict how things move at ordinary sizes and speeds, stop to be helpful. In traditional mechanics, objects exist in a particular spot at a particular time. Be that as it may, in quantum mechanics, protests rather exist in a fog of likelihood; they have a specific possibility of being at point An, another possibility of being at point B, etc.Three revolutionary principles
Quantum mechanics (QM) created over numerous decades, starting as a lot of questionable scientific clarifications of tests that the math of old style mechanics couldn't clarify. It started at the turn of the twentieth century, around a similar time that Albert Einstein distributed his hypothesis of relativity, a different numerical unrest in material science that portrays the movement of things at high speeds. In contrast to relativity, nonetheless, the sources of QM can't be credited to any one researcher. Or maybe, various researchers added to an establishment of three progressive rules that bit by bit picked up acknowledgment and exploratory confirmation somewhere in the range of 1900 and 1930. They are:
Quantized properties:
Certain properties, for example, position, speed and shading, can once in a while just happen in explicit, set sums, much like a dial that "clicks" from number to number. This tested a crucial presumption of old style mechanics, which said that such properties should exist on a smooth, ceaseless range. To portray the possibility that a few properties "clicked" like a dial with explicit settings, researchers begat the word "quantized".
Particles of light:
Light can now and again act as a molecule. This was at first met with unforgiving analysis, as it negated 200 years of trials indicating that light acted as a wave; much like waves on the outside of a quiet lake. Light acts comparatively in that it ricochets off dividers and twists around corners, and that the peaks and troughs of the wave can include or counteract. Included wave peaks bring about more splendid light, while waves that counterbalance produce obscurity. A light source can be thought of ...

The article that I am looking at is Online Dating Vs. Offline Dating: Pros and Cons.It was written by Julie Spira, an online dating expert, bestselling author, and CEO of Cyber-Dating Expert. The name of the article is spot on in describing what it is about. The author goes through the pros and cons of dating online and offline in today’s day and age. The author avoids bias because she looks at both options in both their positive and negative attributes. She comes at the issues from both angles and I believe she does a very good job at remaining unbiased. She states that “if you're serious about meeting someone special, you must include a combination of both online and offline dating in your routine” (Spira, 2013, par. 18). She’s stating that both options have their pros and cons and that really a combination of both is needed to find someone. The only bias I could see anyone pointing out would be that she is a woman, so you do not get the male perspective on these things. That being said, I one hundred percent think she covers all of the questions people may have about online and offline dating in today’s world. The only assumption being made here is that the reader wants to be out in the dating world and they need to know what is best. But, the title of the article is pretty self-explanatory so if someone did not want to know these things, they would not have to waste their time reading it all because they could tell what it would be about by the title.
The resource that she used was herself, and like I stated above, she is an online dating expert, bestselling author, and CEO of Cyber-Dating Expert; so she is more than qualified to give her perspective on these issues. I find her to be credible and thought provoking. Her credibility supports everything the article says and makes the reader feel like they are being told the truth by someone who completely understands all of the pros and cons.

Rigina CochranMPA/593

Peter ReevesDefining the Problem
The health care system in Colorado is a composition of medical professionals providing services such as diagnosis, treatment, as well as preventive measures to mental illness and injuries ("Healthcare policy in Colorado - Ballotpedia," 2019). Health care policy involves the establishment and implementation of legislation and other regulations that the states use to manage its health care system effectively. Further, this sector consists of other participants, such as insurance and health information technology. The cost citizens pay for medical care and also the access to quality care influence the overall health care providers in Colorado. Therefore, the need for the creation and implementation of laws that help the state maintain efficiency in the health sector in Colorado.
Problem Statement
The declining standards of medical care within the United States has caused significant concern in the world. Due to these rising concerns, there have been various policies implemented, leading to mixed reactions among the different states. Some of the active policies implemented offer a long-term solution to this problem including Medicaid and Medicare. After acquiring state control, the Republicans dismissed the idea to expand and create medical insurance for Medicaid in Colorado. Sustaining the structure of the health care payroll calls for the deductions from the employees and the employers, which may lead to loss of jobs and increased burden of expenditure (Garcia, 2019).
Identify the Methodology
The main objective of this policy plan is to investigate the role of legislation in the management of the health care sector in the United States. Due to the need for achieving in-depth exploration, this paper uses a combination of both qualitative and quantitative methods of data collection by addressing both practical and theoretical aspects of the research. Based on the answers that the policy requires, choosing survey as the research design. This method involves collecting and analyzing data from a few people who represent the principal group within health care. However, the survey method faces some challenges such as attitudes and perception of the health workers leading to the delimitation of the study. The target population for the study includes the nurses within the health sectors in Colorado. The selection of the participants involved in the use of stratified random sampling.
Identify your Stakeholders
The major stakeholders in the creation and implementation of the policy plan include the legislatures, local government, patients, and other private parties such as the insurance companies. Collectively, these bodies are involved in the makin ...
Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID) is a feeding disorder characterized by avoidance of food due to sensory characteristics, fear of aversive consequences, or lack of interest in eating. This results in insufficient calorie or nutrient intake leading to issues like weight loss, nutritional deficiencies, or interference with functioning. Treatments that have shown promise for ARFID include family-based treatment involving parents supporting exposure to new foods, cognitive-behavioral therapy with elements like food exposure and relaxation training, and hospital-based refeeding programs, some of which utilize tube feeding for severe cases. However, more research is still needed, as existing studies on treating ARFID are limited and no single approach has been proven
