In many realms of medicine, objective diagnoses can be made: A clavicula is broken. An infection is present. TSH levels meet the diagnostic criteria for hypothyroidism. Psychiatry, on the other hand, deals with psychological phenomena and behaviors.

Thanks to myriad advances during recent decades, we know that psychopathology is caused by many interacting factors. Theoretical and clinical contributions to the field have come from the neural sciences, genetics, psychology, and social-cultural sciences. How do these factors impact the expression, classification, diagnosis, and prevalence of psychopathology, and why might it be important for a nurse practitioner to take a multidimensional, integrative approach? To Prepare: · Review this week’s Learning Resources, considering the many interacting factors that contribute to the development of psychopathology. · Consider how theoretical perspective on psychopathology impacts the work of the PMHNP. Assignment: In 5 pages, Explain the biological (genetic and neuroscientific); psychological (behavioral and cognitive processes, emotional, developmental); and social, cultural, and interpersonal factors that influence the development of psychopathology. ...

Submit Files - Assignment 1 Role of Manager and Impact of Organizational Theories on Managers
Assignment 1 Role of Manager and Impact of Organizational Theories on Managers (Week 3)
Purpose:
In the first assignment, students are given a scenario in which the shipping manager who has worked for Galaxy Toys, Inc. since 1969. The scenario serves to set the stage for students to demonstrate how management theories have changed over time. For example, managing 30 years ago is different than managing in the 21
st
century.
Outcome Met by Completing This Assignment:
integrate management theories and principles into management practices
Instructions:
In Part One of this case study analysis, students are to use the facts from the case study to determine two different organization theories that are demonstrated. For Part Two, students will compare the 21
st
century manager to that of the main character in the case study and the implications of change in being a 21
st
century manager.
In selecting a school of thought and an organizational theory that best describes the current shipping manager, students will use the timeline to select a school of thought and a theory or theories of that time frame. Students will to use the course material to respond to most of the assignment requirements but will also need to research the theorist(s) and theories to complete the assignment. Students are expected to be thorough in responding.
In Part Two, students are going to take what they have learned and compare the management skills of the 21st century shipping manager to the skills of the current shipping manager.
Step 1:
Review “How to Analyze a Case Study” under Week 3 Content.
Step 2:
Create a Word or Rich Text Format (RTF) document that is double-spaced, 12-point font. The final product will be between 4-6 pages in length excluding the title page and reference page.
Step 3:
Review the grading rubric for the assignment.
Step 4:
In addition to providing an introduction, students will use headings following this format:
Title page with title, your name, the course, the instructor’s name;
Background;
Part One;
Part Two.
Step 5
: In writing a case study, the writing is in the third person. What this means is that there are no words such as “I, me, my, we, or us” (first person writing), nor is there use of “you or your” (second person writing). If uncertain how to write in the third person, view this link:
http://www.quickanddirtytips.com/education/grammar/first-second-and-third-person
. Also note that students are not to provide personal commentary.
Step 6:
In writing this assignment, students are expected to support the reasoning using in-text citations and a reference list. If any material is used from a source document, it must be cited and referenced. A reference within a reference list cannot exist without an associated in-text citation and vice versa. View the sample APA paper under Week 1 content.

The development of any marketing mix depends on positioning, a process that influences potential customers' overall perception of a brand, product line, or organization in general. Position is the place a product, brand, or group of products occupies in consumers' minds relative to competing offering. Review positioning in your text. There are many examples to illustrate this concept. Then:
1. Describe the position .

Week 6
Using Marketing Channels and Price to
Create Value for Customers
Sometimes when you buy a good or service, it passes straight from the producer to you. But
suppose every time you purchased something, you had to contact its maker? For some products or
services, such as a haircut, this would work. But what about the items you purchase at the grocery
store? You couldn't begin to contact and buy from all the makers of those products. It would be an
incredibly inefficient way to do business.
Fortunately, companies partner with one another, alleviating you of this burden. So, for example,
instead of Procter & Gamble selling individual toothbrushes to consumers, it sells many of them
to stores, which then sell them to everyone.
The specific avenue a seller uses to make a finished good or service available for purchase—for
example, whether you are able to buy it directly from the seller, at a store, online, or from a
salesperson—is referred to as the product's marketing channel (or distribution channel). All of
the people and organizations that buy, resell, and promote the product "downstream" as it makes
its way to you are part of the marketing channel.
Likewise, price creates value for customers and is the way the company makes its revenue and
profit by exchanging value with the customer. When Chick-fil-A opens new locations, the
company offers the first 100 customers a free meal every week for a year. Customers camp out
overnight to get in line for the free meals. When KFC introduced its grilled chicken, the company
put coupons good for a free piece of chicken in many Sunday newspapers.
So how do sellers make any money if they always offer goods and services on sale or for a special
deal? Many sellers give customers something for free, hoping they'll buy other products, but a
careful balance is needed to ensure profit.
Price is the only marketing mix variable or part of the offering that generates revenue. Buyers
relate the price to value. They must feel they are getting value for the price paid. Pricing decisions
are extremely important. So how do organizations decide how to price their goods and services?
This week, we explore both distribution and price as a means to add value for customers.

“Subsea pipelines connectors”
Subsea pipeline are very popular around the world. Almost every water body has a pipeline, whether it is to transport distilled or spring water, or for gas, or for crude oil. Pipeline with great lengths are broken into segments, and has a connector between each segment; such a methodology are used to control damage and makes it easier for manufacturing and maintenance. However, theses devices are not perfect, and have different aspects that need to be considered when choosing one. Aspects are such as: pressure drop, installment, repair, and material used.
Different types of subsea pipeline connectors are being developed and used everyday in different parts of the world. Manufacturers are racing to be ahead of the technological advancement and rule the market. Starting with a fundamental article about the advancement and the market availability of subsea pipeline connectors back in 1976 to the current technology, this paper will review the literature materials of the present solutions of subsea pipeline connectors. Connectors technology in 1976
This fundamental article written by H. Mohr discusses the available subsea pipe connectors back in 1976[1]. The article offers solution that is applicable for a specific period of time, but when the technology of its time period is expired and new solutions are offered the article would hardly be discussed anymore, which actually made it impossible to find online or in nearby library. However, in general, the solutions offered and the way there were discussed are actually very relatable to this paper.
The paper lays on the three major methods of connections, then goes on to examine the current commercial product at that time. Three methods mentioned are the basic welding, elastomeric connectors, and advanced engineered horizontal systems. H. Mohr then moves to the market demand of the three methods, and two methods only were discussed, welding and mechanical connectors.
“Much emphasis had been placed on welded subsea connections in recent years, but properly designed and installed mechanical connections will always have an ap.

Information and society
Since the advent of easy access to the internet and the World Wide Web, society has a different attitude towards information and access to information. The technology changes – from slow desk-tops with dial-up access to smartphones – have also changed our interaction with information.
This is also an area in which generational differences show up. Those of us born before the mid1980s or 1990s have followed all of these changes and have had to adapt to it. For those born in the 1990s (the millennials or digital natives), these methods of getting information have always existed. The millenials have seen some of the technology changes but don’t remember the “old” way. Keep this in mind as you read these notes.
An information society
At the beginning of the semester we talked about the many different ways we get information and the definitions of information. Now we’re going to look more at how information and information technologies have changed society.
Lester and Koehler talk about defining an information society in economic sense. While this is important, I don’t think we need to look at the percentage of our GNP to see that we do live in an information society. Think of all the companies that are based on information – computer technologies, web based businesses, cell phone and technologies, GPS, etc. There are also jobs that rely on information – customer service, stock markets, etc.

After looking at the data and putting it through the ANOVA test; the conclusions are as follows:
There is a huge difference between the groups regarding degrees of freedom. And the use of ANOVA is essential because it is samples taken at different points and times of the same people. Probability is at zero percent because that means its directly at the mean and the f score is used to see if the null hypothesis can be rejected or fail to be rejected of its less than the critical value.

In a 1000-1250 word essay, explain the meaning of one visual symbol in American Beauty and the relation of that symbol to the message of the film as a whole. Since context forms meaning, you should analyze several instances in which the symbol appears in the film, explaining the meaning of the symbol in each appearance and showing how each instance contributes to the meaning of the symbol in the film as a whole. Since film is a visual medium, I have intentionally asked you to analyze a visual element for this assignment. Therefore, while you certainly should utilize dialogue or other elements of the film’s narrative, please do not neglect to interpret the specifically filmic aspects of this text, such as (but not limited to) camera work (framing, shot length, etc.), editing (“cutting” or “splicing”), sound effects, wardrobe, and lighting.
Here are some visual symbols from which you may choose, but please don’t feel limited to these:
· Plastic bags
· Roses
· Cameras
· Windows or Mirrors
· Guns
· Extreme darkness or bright light
· Specific colors or color combinations
Please note that the task here is twofold: you should present an interpretation of the particular symbol you choose and show how that symbol helps construct the overall message of the film as you see it. A successful thesis statement will present a clear articulation of the meaning of your chosen symbol, a succinct statement as to the overall message of the film, and an explanation of the relationship between these two. As with the other essays for this class, please avoid rendering value judgments. You should not present an evaluation of whether or not you like the film (or whether it’s “good” or “bad”).
Since a successful analysis will require more viewing of the film than what we have time for in class, you may find it advantageous to rent/purchase/download a copy for yourself. For those who would rather not attain their own copy, I have also put a copy of the film on reserve in the library.
Due Dates:
Four copies of your rough draft due: Tuesday 3 December
Workshop: Thursday 5 December

SPRING CLEAN PRODUCTS
MARKET RESEARCH
1
About the Researcher
The researcher has undertaken massive market research in the Asian countries for the last ten years. He has been able to gain vital exposure on how to critically analyze these markets before venturing. The following research report was compiled for Spring Clean Products that wants to open a detergent manufacturing plant in Asia.
The following are the countries I have keenly analysed as potential hosts for the manufacturing site of Spring Clean Products. These are China and Singapore.
Fundamental information on China
China is among the worlds top leading exporters of a wide array of commodities . it therefore receives significant amounts of foreign investment.
It has a per capita per person of $9844. This is relatively high given the high population in the country.
It is a member of WTO (World Trade Organization) hence the country enjoys enormous benefits due to access to foreign markets. However, its relations with other trading partners is a matter of concern given the high surplus trade and piracy levels.
China has devalued its currency which result in goods being extremely cheap for foreign buyers therefore encouraging export.
The country enjoys a stable political environment.
China and India have a combined population of 2.3 billion people, about 37 percent of world's total. A 100 dollar increase in the per capita income of these two countries would translate into about 230 billion dollars in additional demand for commodities.
3
Fundamental information on India
Located in South Asia.
Has a population of 1.2 billion people and is the fourth largest economy in the world.
It has a sizeable middle class. The country has a GDP per capita income of US dollars 4000.
India receives high foreign direct investments and its now home to globally recognized companies especially I n the pharmaceutical and steel sector.
The country is the largest democracy in the world and has enjoyed political stability
India in its sixty five years of independence, it has witnessed a landmark agricultural revolution which has changed the nation from a high dependant on grain import to an agricultural powerhouse across the globe becoming a net food exporter.

INVESTIGATING THE CAUSE OF
THE MIC LEAK
In the days following the gas leak, there was world-
wide interest in pinning down its precise cause. A
team of reporters from The New York Times inter-
viewed plant workers in Bhopal. Their six-week in-
vestigation concluded that a large volume of water
entered tank 610, causing the accident.f The Times re-
porters thought that water had entered when R. Khan
failed to use a slip blind as he washed out piping.
Water from his hose simply backed up and eventually
flowed about 400 feet into the tank. Their account was
widely circulated and this theory, called the "water
washing theory," gained currency. However, it was
not to be the only theory of the accident's cause.
Immediately after the disaster, Union Carbide also
rushed a team of investigators to Bhopal. But the
team got little cooperation from Indian authorities
operating in a climate of anti-Carbide popular pro-
test. It was denied access to plant records and work-
ers. Yet the investigators got to look at tank 610 and
took core samples from its bottom residue. These
samples went back to the United States, where more
than 500 experimental chemical reactions were un-
dertaken to explain their chemical composition. In
March 1985 Carbide finally released its report. It
stated that entry of water into the tank caused the gas
release, but it rejected the water washing theory.
Instead, Carbide scientists felt the only way that
an amount of water sufficient to cause the observed
reaction could have entered the tank was through ac-
cidental or deliberate connection of a water hose to
piping th.

H-R Diagram Lab
Part I: Introduction & Background
Around 1911 to 1913, a Dutch astronomer named Ejnar Hertzsprung and an American astronomer Henry Norris Russell created a diagram of stars plotted using only their luminosity and their spectral types. A star’s spectral type is determined by the absorption lines found in its spectrum. Hertzsprung and Russell noticed that the spectra were related to the stars’ color and temperature. Their diagram, named the Hertzsprung-Russell, or H-R, diagram in their honor, has been like a Rosetta Stone to stellar astronomy.

The spectral types are subdivided into 10 subgroups which are labeled 0 through 9. Stars are further grouped by their luminosity, which is denoted by a Roman numeral.
Luminosity Classes

Ib

bright giants
III

IV

V

VI

VII

The original H-R diagram plotted the star’s luminosity versus its spectral type. It only included stars within 100 pc of the Sun as that was the limit for determining distances using the helio-centric parallax method, the only known method at the time.
Since then, the H-R diagram has come to represent more than just the luminosity of a star versus its spectral type as it can be used to glean more information than just that. For one, luminosity and absolute magnitude are related. It is easy to see where different groups of stars, like main sequence, red giants, et cetera, are grouped on the diagram. Temperature and thus color information can also be found, as well as radius size. We can determine the mass of main sequence stars by using the diagram. We can also determine the distance to stars by plotting them on the H-R diagram. Other characteristics, including stellar densities, spectral lines, stellar life times, stellar interiors, types of nuclear processes taking place within the star, and interior temperatures can also be discovered.
Part II: Procedure
Section 1: Luminosity
Review/Go over solar luminosity as it relates to absolute magnitude. (See textbook section 15.1 Properties of Stars and Mathematical Insight 15.3.) Remember that for every change of 5 magnitudes, the luminosity changes by 100. So a star with an absolute magnitude of 10 will be 100 times more luminous than a star with an absolute magnitude of 15. (For a review on logarithms, see page 4 of this lab packet.) Note: the following graphing instructions are specifically for Excel 2003®; other products/Excel versions may have different instructions.
Section 2: Plotting
Once complete, begin section 3 of this lab. Plot all the stars listed in “Table 1: Bright Stars” on page.

Here’s a way to understand—and redirect—
your instinctive reaction to crises.
by Joshua D. Margolis and Paul G. Stoltz
T
hings are humming along,
and then: A top client calls
and says, “We’re switch-
ing suppliers, starting
next month. I’m afraid
your company no longer
fi gures into our plans.” Or
three colleagues, all of
whom joined the organi-
zation around the same
time you did, are up for promotion—but you aren’t.
Or your team loses another good person in a third
round of layoff s; weak markets or no, you still need
to make your numbers, but now you’ll have to rely
heavily on two of the most uncooperative members
of the group.
So how do you react? Are you angry and disap-
pointed, ranting and raving to anyone who will lis-
ten? Do you feel dejected and victimized, resigned
to the situation even as you deny the cold reality
of it? Or do you experience a rush of excitement—
perhaps tinged with fear—because you sense an op-
portunity to develop your skills and talents in ways
you’d never imagined? The truth is, you’ve probably
reacted in all those ways when confronted with a
challenge—maybe even cycling through multiple
emotional states in the course of dealing with one
really big mess.
Whatever your initial reaction, however, the chal-
lenge is to turn a negative experience into a produc-
tive one—that is, to counter adversity with resilience.
Psychological resilience is the capacity to respond
quickly and constructively to crises. It’s a central dy-
namic in most survival stories, such as those of the
shell-shocked individuals and organizations that ral-
lied in the wake of 9/11 and Hurricane Katrina. But

ing a series of pointed questions, managers can
grasp their own and their direct reports’ habits of
thought and help reframe negative events in pro-
ductive ways. With the four lenses as a guide, they
can learn to stop feeling paralyzed by crisis, respond
with strength and creativity, and help their direct re-
ports do the same.
When Adversity Strikes
Most of us go with our gut when something bad hap-
pens. Deeply ingrained habits and beliefs sap our en-
ergy and keep us from acting constructively..

Assignment 1 Role of Manager and Impact of Organizational Theories on Managers (Week 3)
Purpose:
In the first assignment, students are given a scenario in which the shipping manager who has worked for Galaxy Toys, Inc. since 1969. The scenario serves to set the stage for students to demonstrate how management theories have changed over time. For example, managing 30 years ago is different than managing in the 21
st
century.
Outcome Met by Completing This Assignment:
integrate management theories and principles into management practices
Instructions:
In Part One of this case study analysis, students are to use the facts from the case study to determine two different organization theories that are demonstrated. For Part Two, students will compare the 21
st
century manager to that of the main character in the case study and the implications of change in being a 21
st
century manager.
In selecting a school of thought and an organizational theory that best describes the current shipping manager, students will use the timeline to select a school of thought and a theory or theories of that time frame. Students will to use the course material to respond to most of the assignment requirements but will also need to research the theorist(s) and theories to complete the assignment. Students are expected to be thorough in responding.
In Part Two, students are going to take what they have learned and compare the management skills of the 21st century shipping manager to the skills of the current shipping manager.
Step 1:
Review “How to Analyze a Case Study” under Week 3 Content.
Step 2:
Create a Word or Rich Text Format (RTF) document that is double-spaced, 12-point font. The final product will be between 4-6 pages in length excluding the title page and reference page.
Step 3:
Review the grading rubric for the assignment.
Step 4:
In addition to providing an introduction, students will use headings following this format:
Title page with title, your name, the course, the instructor’s name;
Background;
Part One;
Part Two.
Step 5
: In writing a case study, the writing is in the third person. What this means is that there are no words such as “I, me, my, we, or us” (first person writing), nor is there use of “you or your” (second person writing). If uncertain how to write in the third person, view this link:
http://www.quickanddirtytips.com/education/grammar/first-second-and-third-person
. Also note that students are not to provide personal commentary.
Step 6:
In writing this assignment, students are expected to support the reasoning using in-text citations and a reference list. If any material is used from a source document, it must be cited and referenced. A reference within a reference list cannot exist without an associated in-text citation and vice versa. View the sample APA paper under Week 1 content.

The development of any marketing mix depends on positioning, a process that influences potential customers' overall perception of a brand, product line, or organization in general. Position is the place a product, brand, or group of products occupies in consumers' minds relative to competing offering. Review positioning in your text. There are many examples to illustrate this concept. Then:
1. Describe the position .

Week 6
Using Marketing Channels and Price to
Create Value for Customers
Sometimes when you buy a good or service, it passes straight from the producer to you. But
suppose every time you purchased something, you had to contact its maker? For some products or
services, such as a haircut, this would work. But what about the items you purchase at the grocery
store? You couldn't begin to contact and buy from all the makers of those products. It would be an
incredibly inefficient way to do business.
Fortunately, companies partner with one another, alleviating you of this burden. So, for example,
instead of Procter & Gamble selling individual toothbrushes to consumers, it sells many of them
to stores, which then sell them to everyone.
The specific avenue a seller uses to make a finished good or service available for purchase—for
example, whether you are able to buy it directly from the seller, at a store, online, or from a
salesperson—is referred to as the product's marketing channel (or distribution channel). All of
the people and organizations that buy, resell, and promote the product "downstream" as it makes
its way to you are part of the marketing channel.
Likewise, price creates value for customers and is the way the company makes its revenue and
profit by exchanging value with the customer. When Chick-fil-A opens new locations, the
company offers the first 100 customers a free meal every week for a year. Customers camp out
overnight to get in line for the free meals. When KFC introduced its grilled chicken, the company
put coupons good for a free piece of chicken in many Sunday newspapers.
So how do sellers make any money if they always offer goods and services on sale or for a special
deal? Many sellers give customers something for free, hoping they'll buy other products, but a
careful balance is needed to ensure profit.
Price is the only marketing mix variable or part of the offering that generates revenue. Buyers
relate the price to value. They must feel they are getting value for the price paid. Pricing decisions
are extremely important. So how do organizations decide how to price their goods and services?
This week, we explore both distribution and price as a means to add value for customers.

“Subsea pipelines connectors”
Subsea pipeline are very popular around the world. Almost every water body has a pipeline, whether it is to transport distilled or spring water, or for gas, or for crude oil. Pipeline with great lengths are broken into segments, and has a connector between each segment; such a methodology are used to control damage and makes it easier for manufacturing and maintenance. However, theses devices are not perfect, and have different aspects that need to be considered when choosing one. Aspects are such as: pressure drop, installment, repair, and material used.
Different types of subsea pipeline connectors are being developed and used everyday in different parts of the world. Manufacturers are racing to be ahead of the technological advancement and rule the market. Starting with a fundamental article about the advancement and the market availability of subsea pipeline connectors back in 1976 to the current technology, this paper will review the literature materials of the present solutions of subsea pipeline connectors. Connectors technology in 1976
This fundamental article written by H. Mohr discusses the available subsea pipe connectors back in 1976[1]. The article offers solution that is applicable for a specific period of time, but when the technology of its time period is expired and new solutions are offered the article would hardly be discussed anymore, which actually made it impossible to find online or in nearby library. However, in general, the solutions offered and the way there were discussed are actually very relatable to this paper.
The paper lays on the three major methods of connections, then goes on to examine the current commercial product at that time. Three methods mentioned are the basic welding, elastomeric connectors, and advanced engineered horizontal systems. H. Mohr then moves to the market demand of the three methods, and two methods only were discussed, welding and mechanical connectors.
“Much emphasis had been placed on welded subsea connections in recent years, but properly designed and installed mechanical connections will always have an ap.

Information and society
Since the advent of easy access to the internet and the World Wide Web, society has a different attitude towards information and access to information. The technology changes – from slow desk-tops with dial-up access to smartphones – have also changed our interaction with information.
This is also an area in which generational differences show up. Those of us born before the mid1980s or 1990s have followed all of these changes and have had to adapt to it. For those born in the 1990s (the millennials or digital natives), these methods of getting information have always existed. The millenials have seen some of the technology changes but don’t remember the “old” way. Keep this in mind as you read these notes.
An information society
At the beginning of the semester we talked about the many different ways we get information and the definitions of information. Now we’re going to look more at how information and information technologies have changed society.
Lester and Koehler talk about defining an information society in economic sense. While this is important, I don’t think we need to look at the percentage of our GNP to see that we do live in an information society. Think of all the companies that are based on information – computer technologies, web based businesses, cell phone and technologies, GPS, etc. There are also jobs that rely on information – customer service, stock markets, etc.

After looking at the data and putting it through the ANOVA test; the conclusions are as follows:
There is a huge difference between the groups regarding degrees of freedom. And the use of ANOVA is essential because it is samples taken at different points and times of the same people. Probability is at zero percent because that means its directly at the mean and the f score is used to see if the null hypothesis can be rejected or fail to be rejected of its less than the critical value.

In a 1000-1250 word essay, explain the meaning of one visual symbol in American Beauty and the relation of that symbol to the message of the film as a whole. Since context forms meaning, you should analyze several instances in which the symbol appears in the film, explaining the meaning of the symbol in each appearance and showing how each instance contributes to the meaning of the symbol in the film as a whole. Since film is a visual medium, I have intentionally asked you to analyze a visual element for this assignment. Therefore, while you certainly should utilize dialogue or other elements of the film’s narrative, please do not neglect to interpret the specifically filmic aspects of this text, such as (but not limited to) camera work (framing, shot length, etc.), editing (“cutting” or “splicing”), sound effects, wardrobe, and lighting.
Here are some visual symbols from which you may choose, but please don’t feel limited to these:
· Plastic bags
· Roses
· Cameras
· Windows or Mirrors
· Guns
· Extreme darkness or bright light
· Specific colors or color combinations
Please note that the task here is twofold: you should present an interpretation of the particular symbol you choose and show how that symbol helps construct the overall message of the film as you see it. A successful thesis statement will present a clear articulation of the meaning of your chosen symbol, a succinct statement as to the overall message of the film, and an explanation of the relationship between these two. As with the other essays for this class, please avoid rendering value judgments. You should not present an evaluation of whether or not you like the film (or whether it’s “good” or “bad”).
Since a successful analysis will require more viewing of the film than what we have time for in class, you may find it advantageous to rent/purchase/download a copy for yourself. For those who would rather not attain their own copy, I have also put a copy of the film on reserve in the library.
Due Dates:

MARKET RESEARCH

About the Researcher
The researcher has undertaken massive market research in the Asian countries for the last ten years. He has been able to gain vital exposure on how to critically analyze these markets before venturing. The following research report was compiled for Spring Clean Products that wants to open a detergent manufacturing plant in Asia.
The following are the countries I have keenly analysed as potential hosts for the manufacturing site of Spring Clean Products. These are China and Singapore.
Fundamental information on China
China is among the worlds top leading exporters of a wide array of commodities . it therefore receives significant amounts of foreign investment.
It has a per capita per person of $9844. This is relatively high given the high population in the country.
It is a member of WTO (World Trade Organization) hence the country enjoys enormous benefits due to access to foreign markets. However, its relations with other trading partners is a matter of concern given the high surplus trade and piracy levels.
China has devalued its currency which result in goods being extremely cheap for foreign buyers therefore encouraging export.
The country enjoys a stable political environment.
China and India have a combined population of 2.3 billion people, about 37 percent of world's total. A 100 dollar increase in the per capita income of these two countries would translate into about 230 billion dollars in additional demand for commodities.
3
Fundamental information on India
Located in South Asia.
Has a population of 1.2 billion people and is the fourth largest economy in the world.
It has a sizeable middle class. The country has a GDP per capita income of US dollars 4000.
India receives high foreign direct investments and its now home to globally recognized companies especially I n the pharmaceutical and steel sector.
The country is the largest democracy in the world and has enjoyed political stability
India in its sixty five years of independence, it has witnessed a landmark agricultural revolution which has changed the nation from a high dependant on grain import to an agricultural powerhouse across the globe becoming a net food exporter. Moreover, life expectancy has doubled since independence, the literacy levels have multiplied way much above times four and health facilities have improved significantly.

390 Chapter 11 Multinational Corporations
INVESTIGATING THE CAUSE OF
THE MIC LEAK
In the days following the gas leak, there was world-
wide interest in pinning down its precise cause. A
team of reporters from The New York Times inter-
viewed plant workers in Bhopal. Their six-week in-
vestigation concluded that a large volume of water
entered tank 610, causing the accident.f The Times re-
porters thought that water had entered when R. Khan
failed to use a slip blind as he washed out piping.
Water from his hose simply backed up and eventually
flowed about 400 feet into the tank. Their account was
widely circulated and this theory, called the "water
washing theory," gained currency. However, it was
not to be the only theory of the accident's cause.
Immediately after the disaster, Union Carbide also
rushed a team of investigators to Bhopal. But the
team got little cooperation from Indian authorities
operating in a climate of anti-Carbide popular pro-
test. It was denied access to plant records and work-
ers. Yet the investigators got to look at tank 610 and
took core samples from its bottom residue. These
samples went back to the United States, where more
than 500 experimental chemical reactions were un-
dertaken to explain their chemical composition. In
March 1985 Carbide finally released its report. It
stated that entry of water into the tank caused the gas
release, but it rejected the water washing theory.
Instead, Carbide scientists felt the only way that
an amount of water sufficient to cause the observed
reaction could have entered the tank was through ac-
cidental or deliberate connection of a water hose to
piping th.

9. (14 points) Given:
int a=0;
int b=6;
int x=0;
Circle each if-expression that evaluates to true:
A) if(b)

H-R Diagram Lab
Part I: Introduction & Background
Around 1911 to 1913, a Dutch astronomer named Ejnar Hertzsprung and an American astronomer Henry Norris Russell created a diagram of stars plotted using only their luminosity and their spectral types. A star’s spectral type is determined by the absorption lines found in its spectrum. Hertzsprung and Russell noticed that the spectra were related to the stars’ color and temperature. Their diagram, named the Hertzsprung-Russell, or H-R, diagram in their honor, has been like a Rosetta Stone to stellar astronomy.

G

K

3,500 - 5000
M

The spectral types are subdivided into 10 subgroups which are labeled 0 through 9. Stars are further grouped by their luminosity, which is denoted by a Roman numeral.
Luminosity Classes
Ia
bright supergiant
Ib
supergiant
II
bright giants
III
giants
IV
subgiants
V
main sequence
VI
subdwarf
VII
white dwarf
The original H-R diagram plotted the star’s luminosity versus its spectral type. It only included stars within 100 pc of the Sun as that was the limit for determining distances using the helio-centric parallax method, the only known method at the time.
Since then, the H-R diagram has come to represent more than just the luminosity of a star versus its spectral type as it can be used to glean more information than just that. For one, luminosity and absolute magnitude are related. It is easy to see where different groups of stars, like main sequence, red giants, et cetera, are grouped on the diagram. Temperature and thus color information can also be found, as well as radius size. We can determine the mass of main sequence stars by using the diagram. We can also determine the distance to stars by plotting them on the H-R diagram. Other characteristics, including stellar densities, spectral lines, stellar life times, stellar interiors, types of nuclear processes taking place within the star, and interior temperatures can also be discovered.
Part II: Procedure
Section 1: Luminosity
Review/Go over solar luminosity as it relates to absolute magnitude. (See textbook section 15.1 Properties of Stars and Mathematical Insight 15.3.) Remember that for every change of 5 magnitudes, the luminosity changes by 100. So a star with an absolute magnitude of 10 will be 100 times more luminous than a star with an absolute magnitude of 15. (For a review on logarithms, see page 4 of this lab packet.) Note: the following graphing instructions are specifically for Excel 2003®; other products/Excel versions may have different instructions.
Section 2: Plotting
Once complete, begin section 3 of this lab. Plot all the stars listed in “Table 1: Bright Stars” on page.

Here’s a way to understand—and redirect—
your instinctive reaction to crises.
by Joshua D. Margolis and Paul G. Stoltz
T
hings are humming along,
and then: A top client calls
and says, “We’re switch-
ing suppliers, starting
next month. I’m afraid
your company no longer
fi gures into our plans.” Or
three colleagues, all of
whom joined the organi-
zation around the same
time you did, are up for promotion—but you aren’t.
Or your team loses another good person in a third
round of layoff s; weak markets or no, you still need
to make your numbers, but now you’ll have to rely
heavily on two of the most uncooperative members
of the group.
So how do you react? Are you angry and disap-
pointed, ranting and raving to anyone who will lis-
ten? Do you feel dejected and victimized, resigned
to the situation even as you deny the cold reality
of it? Or do you experience a rush of excitement—
perhaps tinged with fear—because you sense an op-
portunity to develop your skills and talents in ways
you’d never imagined? The truth is, you’ve probably
reacted in all those ways when confronted with a
challenge—maybe even cycling through multiple
emotional states in the course of dealing with one
really big mess.
Whatever your initial reaction, however, the chal-
lenge is to turn a negative experience into a produc-
tive one—that is, to counter adversity with resilience.
Psychological resilience is the capacity to respond
quickly and constructively to crises. It’s a central dy-
namic in most survival stories, such as those of the
shell-shocked individuals and organizations that ral-
lied in the wake of 9/11 and Hurricane Katrina. But

ing a series of pointed questions, managers can
grasp their own and their direct reports’ habits of
thought and help reframe negative events in pro-
ductive ways. With the four lenses as a guide, they
can learn to stop feeling paralyzed by crisis, respond
with strength and creativity, and help their direct re-
ports do the same.
When Adversity Strikes
Most of us go with our gut when something bad hap-
pens. Deeply ingrained habits and beliefs sap our en-
ergy and keep us from acting constructively..

In many realms of medicine, objective diagnoses can be made A clavi
- 1. In many realms of medicine, objective diagnoses can be made: A clavicula is broken. An infection is present. TSH levels meet the diagnostic criteria for hypothyroidism. Psychiatry, on the other hand, deals with psychological phenomena and behaviors. Can these, too, be “defined objectively and by scientific criteria (Gergen, 1985), or are they social constructions?” (Sadock et al., 2015). Thanks to myriad advances during recent decades, we know that psychopathology is caused by many interacting factors. Theoretical and clinical contributions to the field have come from the neural sciences, genetics, psychology, and social - cultural sciences. How do these factors impact the expression, classification, diagnosis, and prevalence of psychopathology, and why might it be important for a nurse practitioner to take a multidimensional, integrative approach? To Prepare: · Review this week’s Learning Resources, considering the many interacting factors that contribute to the development of psychopathology. · Consider how theoretical perspective on psychopathology impacts the work of the PMHNP. Assignment: In 5 pages, Explain the biological (genetic and neuroscientific); psychological (behavioral and cognitive processes, emotional, developmental); and social, cultural, and interpersonal factors that influence the development of psychopathology.
