Iceland’s Tourism Proposal Iceland has made remarkable steps in transitioning from dependence on oil to becoming a world leader where the harnessing of renewable energy is concerned. The country, which is blessed with stunning scenery comprising of volcanoes and hot springs, snow-capped mountain ranges, bare, lava-strewn flats, and even glaciers, has its landscape to thank for the increasing number of tourists it gets each year. Moreover, it is the country’s geographical peculiarities, its location on the mid-Atlantic ridge which is one of earth’s major fault lines, that ensures that it can hold fast to the claim that it obtains 100 percent of its heat and electricity from renewable sources (Aldred, 2008). This research will look into how Iceland’s tourism is impacted by the country’s energy production practices, and examine what impact it has on other sectors such as pollution, education, and the economy. The pollution in Iceland has mainly been caused by human activities. The availability of resources has been scarce as a result of the widespread pollution experienced globally. The main reason why Iceland is prone to pollution is due to the availability of many resources in the region. People, therefore, pollute the region as they look for energy, transport and agricultural resources. Since tourists visit Iceland the most during the summer season, pollution is usually high during this time. In as much as the individuals and government benefit from the revenue generated when the tourists visit, the environment is left at risk of rampant pollution. For instance, ice skiing, swimming, and boat riding destroy the environment by polluting the water (Buckley, 2012). Geothermal electricity is used to supply energy to the hotels and restaurants where the tourists stay when they visit Iceland. The emission of steam in the generation of geothermal energy produces radiation waves which pollute the water (Huntington, 2007). Moreover, the smoke also pollutes the water when it rains while on the other hand, the steam pollutes the environment. When it comes to agriculture in Iceland, water is provided to grow food for the tourists. Farming also pollutes the environment since the farmers use sprays and fertilizers. These chemicals cause water pollution which results in the death of aquatic organisms and plants (Hall, 2010). Possible Research Questions · What is the role of humans in pollution of the environment in Iceland? · How does tourism result in pollution in Iceland? · To what extent has the environment in Iceland been polluted? · What impact could the pollution have on Iceland? · How can the pollution in Iceland be controlled?

New Zealand Environmental Risks
Dangerous Levels of Air Pollution
Most OECD countries must prepare a report on the state of the environment within the country on a regular basis. The reports’ data states that air pollution has become a visible and a very serious health problem, which is closely connected with the soot, sulphur dioxide and nitrogen oxide production, which is the result of combustion, or with the traffic fumes producing toxic substances and smog. According to the report prepared by the State of Air Quality in New Zealand (2015), particles and gases, which have negative effect on the health of the population, ‘can cause a range of effects on human health, from minor irritation through to significant disease and shortening of life’ (State of Air Quality in New Zealand 2015, p.12).
‘The CO2 record from Baring Head comprises the longest continuous record of CO2 concentrations in the Southern Hemisphere. CO2 is a well-mixed gas in the atmosphere’; so far, the concentration in New Zealand atmosphere is similar (An Assessment of the Current State of Scientific Knowledge by the Office of the Chief Science Advisor, 2013).
Among the threats to the human health are
· carbon dioxide,
· nitrogen oxides,
· seaspray salt,
· sulphur dioxide,
· windblown soil, etc.
The size of these small patterns (also known as Particular Matter or PM) varies. PM10 and PM2,5 have diameter less than 10 and 2,5 microns accordingly.
According to the data prepared by David Lee-Jones (2015), ‘New Zealand’s annual total greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions rose 21% from 1990 to 2013 (from 66.7 million tons CO2 equivalent to 81 million tons)’ (Lee-Jones 2015, p.2):

Significant Water Pollution (Specific to New Zealand)
Fenemor A., Neilan D. et all (2011) recognize that ‘New Zealand is seeing growing evidence of stresses on its freshwater resources as land uses intensify and demands for water, especially for irrigation, reach limits of availability’ (Fenemor, Neilan et all., 2011, p.10). Among the most dangerous water pollutants are nutrients, pathogens and sediment. All of them get into water with the urine from livestock, forest clearance, soil, groundwaters, erosion, loss of vegetation, etc. The interesting matter is that in order to minimize the damage from erosion and loss of soil, which results from the flooding rivers, New Zealanders have chosen ‘water managers’ who are responsible for managing soil and water. However, water pollution issues remain out of their sight.

Barbara Silva is the CIO for Peachtree Community Hospital in Atlanta.docx
Barbara Silva is the CIO for Peachtree Community Hospital in Atlanta, Georgia. As the chief information officer, it has been her duty to assemble a team of healthcare information professionals to prepare for the implementation of HIPAA Privacy Rules.
How did Barbara and her team orchestrate moving forward toward HIPAA Privacy compliance? First, she established a steering committee responsible for HIPAA Privacy planning. The committee focused on three broad areas of development, including:
education;
assessment; and
development of policies and procedures.
The steering committee recognizes that the scope of this project is quite vast and that it encompasses many different areas of the facility. The scope involves not just hospital information systems, but the operations of many departments and manual processes. These varied items are included in the scope of assessment and are found to be the biggest challenge. Developing HIPAA compliant policies and procedures is not a one-time activity as changes are constant. Development and continuous updating will mean that this project is one that will be an ongoing effort.
Part of Peachtree Community Hospital’s key to success has been pulling together the right combination of professionals. The result is a multidisciplinary team which will include the HIM services director and the CCO (chief compliance officer).
Barbara has garnered the following information from experts in the area of HIPAA Privacy Rules who have suggested that healthcare organizations consider the following steps to become compliant:
Inventory the organization’s data as the first step in policy implementation.
Read the Federal Register information on HIPAA.
Focus on HIPAA as a business process issue.
Secure the support of top management and the active involvement and participation of staff in all affected areas.
Thoroughly review outside vendor contracts to ensure compliance with business associate agreements.
Appoint a dedicated staff to the HIPAA privacy initiative.
Preparing for HIPAA compliance will require a complex and thorough evaluation and realignment of business and operational processes.
Your Role/Assignment
You have been consulted by CIO Barbara Silva as the healthcare information systems expert. You will be working directly with the director of HIM services. As a consultant, you have vast experience with HIPAA implementations. Your expertise will be required in several areas.

BARGAIN CITY Your career is moving along faster than you e.docx
BARGAIN CITY
Your career is moving along faster than you expected. You thought that your expertise in Information
systems would result in an initial break-in period as a programmer for Bargain City, a retail chain modeled
along the lines of Wal-Mart. But the resignation of three systems analysts changed all that. The analysts
left to form their own consulting firm.
Knowing that you had a strong dose of systems analysis in college, your boss, Alisa Ernst, decided to let
you begin as a systems analyst. It didn't take her long to give you your first assignment. Alisa made
arrangements for you to visit an area store for the purpose of becoming familiar with activity at the store
level. She expects you to prepare a written report that might serve as the basis for future systems
projects.
You arrive at the West Alameda store at 9 A.M., and you are amazed at how many people are already
shopping. The lot is full, and you have to wait ten minutes-it seems like thirty--to get a parking place.
Inside, the conditions are no better. The store is huge, with fifteen checkout counters, but only four are
open. Each of the four, one of which is the express lane, has a long line of shoppers waiting to check out.
It's a good thing that you are not buying anything. Since you are only conducting a systems study, you will
be able to get out sooner.
You watch the action--or inaction--for a while and then wander back to the storeroom where three stock
clerks are opening boxes. You hear one of them say, "Have you found it yet?" Curious, you introduce
yourself and ask what they are looking for. One of the clerks tells you that the store has a special on
cookout items but ran out of charcoal starter fluid. The truck that was supposed to bring additional stock
broke down in Tuba City. The lack of starter fluid is one reason the lines up front are so long; the
checkout clerks are having to give out rain checks. You can understand why the stock clerks are having
such difficulty; the storeroom is a real mess. Boxes are stacked everywhere. There seems to be no rhyme
or reason to anything.
You ask where the store computer is, and you are directed to a small room in the corner. There it is,
humming away. Automation in action.
With a good grasp of the backroom operation, you return to the front for the purpose of checking out the
office. There's a big line there as well--people waiting to cash checks and return purchases. Most of the
returns seem to be glassware items that the customers found to be broken when they opened their
shopping bags at home. The sackers had not packed the items properly.
When you finally reach the head of the line, you are surprised to learn that the cashier is really the store
manager. He asks you to come back when he has more time. He explains that he had to "let a lot of
people go" in order to stay within the budget that headquarters imposed. You can tell by the way he
snarls his explanation that he is not ver.

Unmasking the Prevailing Culprits in The Present-Day Education System
In pursuit of a holistic, critically provoking, meaningful, and educational oriented environment where teachers are free to teach, and learners are free to think, and the disappointing reality continues to present itself from every dimension. The faults in the current education system are critically unmasked by Mark Edmundson and Paulo Freire in their two invaluable pieces of articles. A careful analysis of the ideas tabled by the two influential education thinkers illustrates numerous underlying commonalities in their works as well as some overlooked ideas in their arguments. The fact that their central ideas in their respective scholarly works revolve around unmasking the true culprits in the present-day education implies that, if Edmundson and Freire were able to converse with each other, they would both agree on the need to change the current education system and build it around critical thinking. It’s to this end that this paper seeks to synthesize their ideas in an attempt to identify common grounds, differences as well the areas they both overlooked.
Looking at the prevailing schooling system in America as well as the ways through which learners are carrying out their studies, the perception of the two education thinkers is of great heed to the whole education system. Deeply entrenched into the Edmundson and Freire respective pieces of literature is the overarching conspiracy and oppression theme where the established, who is this case is the teacher among other the education leaders seek to contain, manipulate, and control the thoughts of the learners. As acknowledged by Freire, “Teachers either work for the liberation of the people- their humanization- or for their domestication, their dominance” (p.243). As a result of this domination and hierarchical relationship, the only knowledge that the learners in the prevailing education system receive are from the teachers, an aspect that dehumanizes the students as they do not get the chance to develop their own knowledge or even challenge the one received from the teachers. The oppression and domination ideology as presented by Freire cast invaluable light on the need for both teachers and students to embrace an “authentic” approach to education which grants them some chance to be aware of their respective incompleteness and eventually strive to be fully human (Freire 244). In a bid to rethink Freire’s oppression implication, as a college student one ought to act as a co-creator of knowledge at the expense of posing as an empty vessel waiting to be filled by the college professor or instructor.
Similarly, Edmundson acknowledges the presence of oppression in thinking and learning approaches in the contemporary schools, but from a different angle from the one used by Freire. While Freire profoundly argues that students are highly dehumanized a.

A broad, general problem seen throughout the country is the integration of online course work into the public-school classroom. Technology is integrated into all levels of education: pre-K, elementary, secondary, and higher education (Leggatt, 2016). It began with a modest inclusion of videos or allowing students to research using school-provided laptops or tablets. This was the simple way of using technology. Now that technology is more accessible and affordable, districts are providing students with digital devices to use in and out of schools, allowing them to utilize their phones, and requiring them to complete coursework online outside of the classroom (Hohlfeld, Ritzhaupt, Dawson, & Wilson,.

Barbara and Judi entered into a contract with Linda, which provided that they open a jewelry store in Fullerton. Linda is obligated to supply all jewelry in accordance with a specified price list. Linda also agreed that she would not personally compete or supply another retail merchant, either directly or indirectly, within the City of Fullerton.
Linda, in order to give the necessary credit to Barbara and Judi, required that Joanne act as a guarantor. Barbara and Judi have been very successful, making substantial profits each month.
After one year's time, Barbara, who also has an additional job as a legal secretary, requires an extended vacation. Judi is fully in agreement. While Barbara is on her vacation, Linda sells jewelry to three additional retailers, all of whom, in the space of one week, open competitive shops in Fullerton. Linda's agreement with the new retailers is to provide inventory to the new stores at a substantially reduced cost, permitting them to sell retail at rates far below Judi and Barbara's cost. In one month's time, Judi closes the business and, unknown to Barbara, files suit in Federal District Court, alleging breach of contract on Linda's part and further alleging that she only has been damaged. Barbara returns from her extended vacation one month after the suit is filed and files a motion to intervene under Rule 24. Linda files a motion under Rule 19, alleging that Barbara should be joined as a party. Joanne, who lives in Nevada, learns of the lawsuit and asks her attorney to file a motion to intervene under Rule 24. Linda, in the requisite time, files her answer and files a motion under Rule 14 to implead the Rhodesian Diamond Company, her supplier and with whom she has a contract which required that she increase her sales and open new offices or lose her contract.
Assume proper jurisdiction of the subject matter, parties and venue. Discuss all civil procedure issues and give proper argument concerning motions made by Linda, Joanne and Barbara.
Discuss your answers in a very full narrative IRAC essay with much detail.

SuperBrowse Custody
1. Proposed Legislation
Effective: July 14, 2018
KRS § 403.270
403.270 Custodial issues; best interests of child shall determine; rebuttable presumption that joint custody and equally shared parenting time is in child’s best interests; de facto custodian
Currentness
(1) (a) As used in this chapter and KRS 405.020, unless the context requires otherwise, “de facto custodian” means a person who has been shown by clear and convincing evidence to have been the primary caregiver for, and financial supporter of, a child who has resided with the person for a period of six (6) months or more if the child is under three (3) years of age and for a period of one (1) year or more if the child is three (3) years of age or older or has been placed by the Department for Community Based Services. Any period of time after a legal proceeding has been commenced by a parent seeking to regain custody of the child shall not be included in determining whether the child has resided with the person for the required minimum period.
(b) A person shall not be a de facto custodian until a court determines by clear and convincing evidence that the person meets the definition of de facto custodian established in paragraph (a) of this subsection. Once a court determines that a person meets the definition of de facto custodian, the court shall give the person the same standing in custody matters that is given to each parent under this section and KRS 403.280, 403.340, 403.350, 403.822, and 405.020.
(2) The court shall determine custody in accordance with the best interests of the child and equal consideration shall be given to each parent and to any de facto custodian. Subject to KRS 403.315, there shall be a presumption, rebuttable by a preponderance of evidence, that joint custody and equally shared parenting time is in the best interest of the child. If a deviation from equal parenting time is warranted, the court shall construct a parenting time schedule which maximizes the time each parent or de facto custodian has with the child and is consistent with ensuring the child's welfare. The court shall consider all relevant factors including:
(a) The wishes of the child's parent or parents, and any de facto custodian, as to his or her custody;
(b) The wishes of the child as to his or her custodian, with due consideration given to the influence a parent or de facto custodian may have over the child's wishes;
(c) The interaction and interrelationship of the child with his or her parent or parents, his or her siblings, and any other person who may significantly affect the child's best interests;
(d) The motivation of the adults participating in the custody proceeding;
(e) The child's adjustment and continuing proximity to his or her home, school, and community;
(f) The mental and physical health of all in.

BalanchineGeorge Balanchine is an important figure in the histor.docx
Balanchine
George Balanchine is an important figure in the history of ballet as he was a major exponent of ballet in the US. He established the first school of American ballet in NYC with Lincoln Kirstein in 1934. Balanchine’s style has been called Neoclassical and the success of his NYC Ballet has spawned many regional companies in the US, including Miami City Ballet, keeping his repertory alive. Balanchine brought a new aesthetic to ballet, stripping away its sentimentality and bringing attention to the movement rather than the spectacle. He brought quick footwork, precision and musicality to classical ballet technique. He collaborated extensively with the composer Stravinsky. His work with the Ballet Russe in the early 20th century exposed Balanchine to the most prominent musical composers and visual artists of the period (i.e. Picasso, Matisse, etc.) which influenced his experimentation with abstraction in the form.
Ballet continues to evolve today. Traditional classical ballets such as Sleeping Beauty and Swan Lake are still performed today with the addition of more contemporary interpretations of the form. Some examples of contemporary ballet:
Modern Dance
Modern dance began as a departure from the restrictions of ballet and a desire to express a wider palette of the human experience. It emphasized the expression of emotion, the exploration of dynamics in the body and presented narratives in a more abstract manner. Some modern dance pioneers eventually developed their own codification and/or process for working. The postmodern dancers rejected codification of any kind as well as known methods for composition. They valued personal movement, innovative forms of performance and preferred abstraction over story telling.
Pioneers of Modern Dance
Isadora Duncan 1877-1927, believed movement should be drawn from nature and was inspired by Ancient Greece, wearing long toga-like robes in her performances. The Duncan technique was comprised of movements such as hopping, swinging, running, skipping and leaping; her desire was to free the body from the confines of ballet.
Ruth St Denis 1878-1968, was inspired by the dances of Asia, in addition to other culturally based forms. She is well known for her grand spectacles, creating a formal school/company. Her husband Ted Shawn was also a pioneer in modern dance who created an all male dance company in addition to performing with Ruth. Martha Graham was a student Ruth St. Denis and later became a member of her company.
Mary Wigman 1886-1973, was a German dancer/choreographer inspired by Expressionism, an artistic movement that emphasized raw emotions. She was a student of Rudolf Laban. In her famous Witch Dance, she went against traditional norms of female beauty in dance.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AtLSSuFlJ5c
Rudolf Laban 1879-1958, is sometimes referred to as the father of German modern dance; he developed a system for notating dance called Labanotation in addition to developin.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

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

Iceland’s TourismProposalIceland has made remarkable steps in .docx
- 1. Iceland’s Tourism Proposal Iceland has made remarkable steps in transitioning from dependence on oil to becoming a world leader where the harnessing of renewable energy is concerned. The country, which is blessed with stunning scenery comprising of volcanoes and hot springs, snow-capped mountain ranges, bare, lava- strewn flats, and even glaciers, has its landscape to thank for the increasing number of tourists it gets each year. Moreover, it is the country’s geographical peculiarities, its location on the mid-Atlantic ridge which is one of earth’s major fault lines, that ensures that it can hold fast to the claim that it obtains 100 percent of its heat and electricity from renewable sources (Aldred, 2008). This research will look into how Iceland’s tourism is impacted by the country’s energy production practices, and examine what impact it has on other sectors such as pollution, education, and the economy. The pollution in Iceland has mainly been caused by human activities. The availability of resources has been scarce as a result of the widespread pollution experienced globally. The main reason why Iceland is prone to pollution is due to the availability of many resources in the region. People, therefore, pollute the region as they look for energy, transport and agricultural resources. Since tourists visit Iceland the most during the summer season, pollution is usually high during this time. In as much as the individuals and government benefit from the revenue generated when the tourists visit, the environment is left at risk of rampant pollution. For instance, ice skiing, swimming, and boat riding destroy the environment by polluting the water (Buckley, 2012). Geothermal electricity is used to supply energy to the hotels and restaurants where the tourists stay when they visit Iceland. The emission of steam in the generation of geothermal energy produces radiation waves which pollute the water (Huntington,
- 2. 2007). Moreover, the smoke also pollutes the water when it rains while on the other hand, the steam pollutes the environment. When it comes to agriculture in Iceland, water is provided to grow food for the tourists. Farming also pollutes the environment since the farmers use sprays and fertilizers. These chemicals cause water pollution which results in the death of aquatic organisms and plants (Hall, 2010). Possible Research Questions · What is the role of humans in pollution of the environment in Iceland? · How does tourism result in pollution in Iceland? · To what extent has the environment in Iceland been polluted? · What impact could the pollution have on Iceland? · How can the pollution in Iceland be controlled?
