Project Title: Michael Joseph Place, The place to be
Project Start Date: 25/7/2018
Projected Finish Date: 25/12/2018
Budget Information: $ 4,500.00
Project Manager: Student name,[email protected], 210- 105 - 6676
Business Need
The project manager will be hosting an evening lounge event that will be targeting the clientele to an upscale lounge to be built in downtown. Through such an event the city will have a positive exposure.
There will be need for effective marketing, music, modern décor and most likely investors. The menu for food and drinks will need to be within budget. The venue needs to have amiable space and adequate seats for all guests.
The first step to this project involves coming up with a plan on a piece of paper. Once this is done the next step will involve selection of vendors to various goods and services. Once everything has been put to perspective the next stage will be to involve investors who will include local business owners. These investors will be encouraged to do so with the exchange for them to market and advertise their products at the event. We will have three packages for investors including Silver, Gold and Platinum packages.
Project Objectives
The proposal is to have a social entertainment evening lounge in Chicago. The project managers will be showcasing the new concept of entertainment by holding a series of events known as “The Place to be!”
· The events will be used to showcase the atmosphere that the new lounge will be offering
· The events will offer the professional audiences an opportunity to network while at the same time being entertained.
· The events will be targeting an audience of 150 attendants
· To have an environment where attendants can dance, dine and drink socially while discussing business.
Approach
This project will be managed in accordance with the PMI approach as modified.
Assumptions/Constraints/Dependencies
The assumption is that with the provision of an exquisite and upscale venue that is mature in Chicago, IL, will be successful due to the fact that there is no such a venue within a 100 mile radius.
One of the likely constraint is finding a venue that grabs attention of the targeted crowd.
The success of these events depends on attracting two sets of individuals. One of them is investors and the other is private professionals who will attend a social event at night.
Initial Risk Factors
· Obtaining a liquor license on time for the event is the major risk factor.
· Failure of attendees despite investing money and time is another risk.
· Failing to complete the organizational plans within 30 days before the event series begin.
· Not attracting any viable investors
Regulatory cost/impact
One of the needed licensing is from the city council where I will be required to get a special event license. This will enable us to have alcohol i.

Final Project: Implementing Data Masking the Coca-Cola Company
Executive summary
This paper elaborates on data masking as one of the techniques used by corporations to protect their data from access by malicious entities. The technique is described as attempts to obfuscate the data by applying a series of encryption processes so that one cannot easily decrypt the data unless they have special pass codes enabling them to do so. This process will be implemented by The Coca-Cola Company to prevent data insecurity that is a challenge in the online world we are living in.
To make sure that the implementation works, there must be a proper working project plan. The project plan outlines the various stakeholders for the project including; the project steering committee, project sponsor, project leader, and others with their roles clearly stated. There are qualities that must be possessed by the project manager for them to lead a successful project from beginning to end within the cost and time frame. A successful implementation of the data masking project by The Coca-Cola Company will help them in improving their decision making. Additionally, the implemented solution will lead to new business innovations. This is because, when the company’s information will be utterly protected, it will not be used by competing companies or other malicious individuals for their own gains (Dhar et al., 2005). As a result, The Coca-Cola Company will be able to use their private data for market analysis and hence come up with innovative ideas that have not been discovered by competitors in the market. This shows that data masking will indeed go a long way in ensuring The Coca-Cola Company gets greater advantage in the long run as far as competitiveness in the market is concerned.
Introduction
The purpose of this report is to show how our selected technology will be implemented effectively in our selected company so that it guarantees maximum success and becomes an effective tool for data security. As we already know, our selected company is The.
importance of resources allocation in formal method of software engineering ...abdulrafaychaudhry
Project management is a very wide area of work, particularly in business. It covers many different topics which can be broken into even smaller particles. Work of a project manager is not only about giving people orders and telling them what to do. Many people limit their work of a project manager to supervising their employees and making sure everyone meets their deadline. But a good project manager knows it’s more than that.
Resource allocation in project management is one of those particles which make work of a good PM effective and significant. And even though it may seem simple, it is actually crucial in delivering a great project.
Resource allocation in project management is concerned with creating a plan which can help achieve future goals. There are many resources which have to be allocated when managing a project, beginning from budget to equipment and tools, to data and the project’s plan.
How To Allocate Resources
Resource allocation in project management is so important because it gives a clear picture on the amount of work that has to be done. It also helps to schedule ahead and have an insight into the team’s progress, including allocating the right amount of time to everyone on the team.
Resource allocation allows to plan and prepare for the project’s implementation or achieving goals. It is also possible to analyze existing threats and risks to the project.
But above all, resource allocation in project management helps to control all the workload. This, as a result, contributes to team’s effectiveness at work and what follows later is a satisfying and exhaustive project.

Project Proposal for new product “ShareMarket."
Student’s Name
Institutional Affiliation
Project Proposal
ABC company is a software development company located in San Fransisco, California. It specializes in the design of business-oriented software like Enterprise Resource Planning Systems, customer relationship management systems, marketing, and sales management systems, among other software used to perform different activities within the business environment.
Purpose and Objectives
ABC has come up with a new software called ShareMarket that leverages on the power of social media to market products. The digital marketing landscape is increasingly becoming sophisticated, with businesses relying on major data companies like Google and Facebook for marketing insights. These data companies take away the autonomy of information of companies. The ShareMarket is a specially designed software that will be used to analyze company data on social media sites and creating reports that can be used to drive digital marketing strategies. This software will be available both on-premise and also on cloud-based services.
Assumptions and Benefits
In developing this software, ABC assumes that no other company has attempted such a project. This is important, especially when considering intellectual property rights. ABC also makes the assumption that the product will be easily feasible with cloud computing technology, among other new technology such as Big Data, as these are the current market trends in software development. Assumptions are also rooted in the cost estimates for the project. ABC uses an average cost estimation method that estimates costs based on current market costs of developing software. It is assumed that these costs will remain fairly constant throughout the project and will not be subject to economic changes.
By undertaking this project, ABC stands to fill a market gap for smaller businesses that cannot access the proprietary functions of Google's and Facebook's marketing tools. ABC stands to increase its profit margin by having one more product on its portfolio. Another advantage is that ABC gets to acquire control of ShareMarket as a product. As such, they may dictate the price of the product from the start, and even when new companies decide to make the software.
Constraints
Despite the immense financial benefits of ShareMarket, ABC will have to deal with competition from already existing digital marketers. Information leakages may hamper the product's success as it would take autonomy away from ABC. Another constraint exists in the costs of implementation, which may be high, given that some outsourcing may be required.

Project Charter about Creating a Website for HR
Introduction
To many of the business enterprises of today, establishment of a project charter is of great importance towards the overall prosperity of the given project. Through its creation, an organization is at a position assessing the task and the prospective outcomes of the given project. Similarly, it is a component that ensures that the organization justifies its mission statement in relation to the project. An organization is also at a position of underlining scope statement of the project as well as the regulation of the utmost deliverables. Last but not least, a project charter ensures that the organization effectively applies the technical requirements, assumptions as well as to the constraints of the given project (Doraiswamy et al., 2012). In this paper, it takes turn emphasizing more regarding a description of a narrative project in conformance to all the components essential for a viable project charter development.
Narrative Project Description
In this paper, it mainly focuses on a project charter for Company Z that mainly operates in the production of cement. Due to the increase in the overall turnout
of employees, the company resorts to up scaling its operations through the establishment of a website for HR in conformance to the assessment of employee’s records. Through the given website, it enables the executives to effectively undertake valuation of the employee’s records in relation to their performance track at the company. Currently, the business is experiencing a good customer base majorly because it deals in one of the best cement variety in the construction industry. The business has employed an array of employees hence the need to go online in tracking employee’s performance is of great importance
to the business.
Through the online portal management of employees will be much easier for both the executive as well as to the junior employees. In the spirit of exploration on the project plans of opening up an online employee portal, this paper contributes a lot regarding an effective project plan layout
.
Problem and Result Statement
In the given project, it has a requirement of directing the entire employee’s performance in the online portal
. It includes daily update of each and every operation undertaken by the workers. In the project, there are little chances of any forthcoming defects based on the outcomes of the project
(Goldstein et al., 2012). Each and every worker should be conversant with the information being fed into the online portal as it is a great tool to be used by the company in undertaking benchmarking efforts
. In the project, there occur various forms of delivery failures that are u ...

Deliverable 2 - Using Visuals to Enhance Viewer PerceptionCompet.docxtheodorelove43763
Deliverable 2 - Using Visuals to Enhance Viewer Perception
Competency
Analyze and interpret perceptual elements of visual media communication to identify effective visual messages.
Scenario
You have been hired by a large law enforcement agency to analyze the images used on advertising billboards in both urban and suburban regions. The billboards visually display a new campaign message to improve neighborhood safety.
During your analysis, you find that the images used on billboards in the urban areas are exactly the same as the images used in the suburban areas. Both images show parents happily talking with law enforcement officers while children run over green lawns having a fun balloon fight. You decide that these images are not sending proper perceptual messages. You decide to create a visual analysis video for the law enforcement agency to share with the administration
For the video visual analysis, you realize you will need to find two new images that are quite different from one another. One image will be used on the urban billboard, and the other image will be used on the suburban billboard. In your video presentation, you will compare and contrast how each image utilizes the following:
1. Compare and contrast the visual elements of cultural familiarity. Explain why it is important to use culturally familiar visuals that are quite different in the urban and suburban billboard images. Include specific visuals in your visual analysis.
2. Identify specific visual examples of the following cognitive elements: memories, experiences, and expectation. Compare and contrast how urban and suburban viewers may be affected differently by those specific cognitive visual elements.
3. Explain the difference between urban and suburban viewers' emotionally engagement with each of the billboard images.
4. Identify visual semiotic codes in both images: metonymic, analogical, displaced, and condensed. Discuss the importance of using these codes. Include specific visuals in each part of your visual analysis.
As you outline your ideas for the video, you decide to record your verbal analysis while analyzing the two visuals in less than seven minutes for added clarity.

8 common project management mistakes — and how to avoid them

what project managers can do to keep them on track.

JUN 28, 2017 3:00 AM PDT
So many projects, so much mismanagement. That's the refrain of many IT executives. Indeed, even with project
management software, IT projects often wind up taking longer (much longer) than planned and costing more than
budgeted.
While no two projects are exactly the same, the issues that can affect — and potentially jeopardize — them are
often quite similar. And even good project managers can make mistakes when wrangling a big, complex project —
or when being bombarded with change requests..

The organization projects have a different strategical plan that can help in enterprise goals achievements. There are some of the projects that require some of the bulky of the activities that will help the business management to achieve the implemented goals and objectives using different ideas. There is a uniqueness of the project that can be detected to show some of the differences in the process and ensuring there is goals achievement in the completion of the project process. It is important to consider timelines when expecting the completion of the project.
The projects and daily activities have some of the differences since the projects take too long for its completion while daily activities take a short period. The implementation of the daily activities requires the business to have a continuous operation as deployed by business management. Moreover, the daily activities have no indicated date or schedule plans which are implemented in the project process to help in achieving the business goals.
The organization should create group management to help in making better decisions that will lead to effective practices that will increase the effectiveness of the project management by considering the team members' support and idea-sharing. The organization project should be recorded to make a comparison in some of the areas such as members' roles and responsibilities. Moreover, business management is recommended to focus on some of the areas where they consider the quality of the project's goals achievements. According to Jissink, Rohrbeck, & Schweitzer (2017), the implementation of the group or project team requires effective leadership skills to help in influencing the members for the project successful completion.
Ultimately, some of the challenges occur due to the use of information technology in some areas. The cybersecurity has been issued that interferes with most of the projects since there are some of the members that can leak the information to other business competitors thus exposing the business project planning. Moreover, the budget allocation can also be affected by the use of IT thus creating difficulties in project management, Papke-Shields, & Boyer-Wright (2017). The project's uniqueness should consider some of the needs in planning and having effective preparation for successful project completion.

NURS 6050: Policy and Advocacy for Improving Population Health
Walden University
In 2010 The Affordable Care Act (ACA) was enacted; the hope was to expand access to medical care, make coverage more affordable, and decrease the number of people without medical insurance. The Affordable Care Act (ACA) expanded and improved health insurance coverage in two primary ways. First, the number of individuals receiving insurance coverage grown by increasing access to coverage through Medicaid expansion and providing subsidies to purchase private insurance on the health care exchanges. Second, the ACA upgraded the quality and scope of coverage by improving benefit design, including implementing the essential health benefits (Willison & Singer, 2017). People who did not have coverage through their employer or Medicaid were required to purchase insurance through the Marketplace. The Marketplace was created as a one-stop-shop for people to view multiple plans and purchase insurance. Just because you have access to health care insurance does not mean you are going to receive quality health care (Teitelbaum, 2018).
Both parties have asked that the ACA be repealed or replaced for multiple reasons. Every Republican presidential candidate for 2016 has called for the repeal of the ACA. Some, but not all, Republican candidates have proposed health policies that they would like to put in place after repeal, but there is no broad agreement on a replacement for the ACA (Buettgens & Blumberg, 2016). The federal government would spend $90.9 billion less on health care for the nonelderly in 2021 if the ACA were repealed (Buettgens & Blumberg, 2016). State governments as a whole would spend $5.2 billion more on health care for the nonelderly in 2021 if the ACA were repealed (Buettgens & Blumberg, 2016). Healthcare is a priority to many Americans for obvious reasons; it was more costly for those with preexisting conditions before the ACA to obtain Medical Insurance. With the ACA the income guidelines for Medicaid where changed so additional people qualified that didn’t prior. As a Behavioral Health Nurse, I am a fan of anyone and everyone having access to Healthcare Services. I have seen to many times my patient not have the money for their medications because insurance was canceled so they go off their medications, they become unstable and ended up in the Emergency Department and admitted Inpatient, costing more money, hurting themselves and their loved ones.
Politicians are aware that election time is the best time to play the tug of war game with the heavy ticket items to capture someone votes. Republicans ran hard on promises to get rid of the law in every election since it passed in 2010. But when the GOP finally got control of the House, the Senate and the White House in 2017, Republicans found
they could not reach agreement
on how to "repeal and replace" the law (Kaiser Health News, 2018). And political strategists s.

I have worked in an outpatient behavioral health clinic for the past seven years with many different providers. I live in a rural community, many patients wait six to twelve months to be seen. Patients being treated for Attention Deficit Disorder must be officially tested before being seen by a Psychologist. For this discussion board post, I have changed the name of my patient to Paul to ensure patient confidentially. The provider I worked with this particular patient will also be referred to as PMHNP to ensure provider confidentiality.
Paul was a ten-year-old Caucasian male referred to our clinic diagnosed per DSM criteria, confirmed via Psychologist testing with ADHD. When he saw the Psychologist, he was also diagnosed with mild depression and anxiety. He struggled with concentration, hyperactivity, impulse control, and disorganization. He presented to his appointment with his mother and father, clean, well-nourished, pleasant, interactive with staff, reported no medication allergies, current medication Zyrtec for seasonal allergies. Paul just had his well-child exam and is current on vaccinations and his primary care provider completed lab work to include CBC, CMP, TSH, Vit D, B12, and A1C, all have returned normal. Family history reported father has a history of ADHD (never medicated), brother has a history of depression and anxiety (never medicated treating with psychotherapy), no other significant family history to report. Paul’s current weight at his appointment was 30kg.
PMHNP spent one hour with Paul and his parents for the initial new patient appointment (Thursday). It was decided Paul would be prescribed Strattera (atomoxetine) 40mg once a day for one week then increase to 80mg once a day. I returned to work on Monday and received a call from Paul’s mom, she said he was acting strange. He was tearful, had been in his room with the door closed for most of the weekend, she stated on Sunday she went into his room and he was crying and said he was just thinking about dying and his parents dying. She stated he had already had his meds Sunday so she kept him with her that entire day and made Sunday night a campout night in the Livingroom so he would think it was fun and she could keep a close eye on him. I had a cancelation that morning for him to come to see PMHNP and he was in to see her within twenty minutes and removed from Strattera. His parents decided medications were no longer the route they wanted to try for treatment and a referral was made for psychotherapy.
The only medication Paul takes on occasion is Zyrtec which is in an antihistamine drug class, Strattera is a selective norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor; there is no known drug interaction between the two medications. Reflecting on his age and the medication, Strattera has a black box labeled for suicidal ideation with adolescents dia.

In developing this software, ABC assumes that no other company has attempted such a project. This is important, especially when considering intellectual property rights. ABC also makes the assumption that the product will be easily feasible with cloud computing technology, among other new technology such as Big Data, as these are the current market trends in software development. Assumptions are also rooted in the cost estimates for the project. ABC uses an average cost estimation method that estimates costs based on current market costs of developing software. It is assumed that these costs will remain fairly constant throughout the project and will not be subject to economic changes.
By undertaking this project, ABC stands to fill a market gap for smaller businesses that cannot access the proprietary functions of Google's and Facebook's marketing tools. ABC stands to increase its profit margin by having one more product on its portfolio. Another advantage is that ABC gets to acquire control of ShareMarket as a product. As such, they may dictate the price of the product from the start, and even when new companies decide to make the software.
Constraints
Despite the immense financial benefits of ShareMarket, ABC will have to deal with competition from already existing digital marketers. Information leakages may hamper the product's success as it would take autonomy away from ABC. Another constraint exists in the costs of implementation, which may be high, given that some outsourcing may be required.

Project Charter about Creating a Website for HR
Introduction
To many of the business enterprises of today, establishment of a project charter is of great importance towards the overall prosperity of the given project. Through its creation, an organization is at a position assessing the task and the prospective outcomes of the given project. Similarly, it is a component that ensures that the organization justifies its mission statement in relation to the project. An organization is also at a position of underlining scope statement of the project as well as the regulation of the utmost deliverables. Last but not least, a project charter ensures that the organization effectively applies the technical requirements, assumptions as well as to the constraints of the given project (Doraiswamy et al., 2012). In this paper, it takes turn emphasizing more regarding a description of a narrative project in conformance to all the components essential for a viable project charter development.
Narrative Project Description
In this paper, it mainly focuses on a project charter for Company Z that mainly operates in the production of cement. Due to the increase in the overall turnout
of employees, the company resorts to up scaling its operations through the establishment of a website for HR in conformance to the assessment of employee’s records. Through the given website, it enables the executives to effectively undertake valuation of the employee’s records in relation to their performance track at the company. Currently, the business is experiencing a good customer base majorly because it deals in one of the best cement variety in the construction industry. The business has employed an array of employees hence the need to go online in tracking employee’s performance is of great importance
to the business.
Through the online portal management of employees will be much easier for both the executive as well as to the junior employees. In the spirit of exploration on the project plans of opening up an online employee portal, this paper contributes a lot regarding an effective project plan layout
.
Problem and Result Statement
In the given project, it has a requirement of directing the entire employee’s performance in the online portal
. It includes daily update of each and every operation undertaken by the workers. In the project, there are little chances of any forthcoming defects based on the outcomes of the project
(Goldstein et al., 2012). Each and every worker should be conversant with the information being fed into the online portal as it is a great tool to be used by the company in undertaking benchmarking efforts
. In the project, there occur various forms of delivery failures that are u ...

Deliverable 2 - Using Visuals to Enhance Viewer Perception
Competency
Analyze and interpret perceptual elements of visual media communication to identify effective visual messages.
Scenario
You have been hired by a large law enforcement agency to analyze the images used on advertising billboards in both urban and suburban regions. The billboards visually display a new campaign message to improve neighborhood safety.
During your analysis, you find that the images used on billboards in the urban areas are exactly the same as the images used in the suburban areas. Both images show parents happily talking with law enforcement officers while children run over green lawns having a fun balloon fight. You decide that these images are not sending proper perceptual messages. You decide to create a visual analysis video for the law enforcement agency to share with the administration
For the video visual analysis, you realize you will need to find two new images that are quite different from one another. One image will be used on the urban billboard, and the other image will be used on the suburban billboard. In your video presentation, you will compare and contrast how each image utilizes the following:
1. Compare and contrast the visual elements of cultural familiarity. Explain why it is important to use culturally familiar visuals that are quite different in the urban and suburban billboard images. Include specific visuals in your visual analysis.
2. Identify specific visual examples of the following cognitive elements: memories, experiences, and expectation. Compare and contrast how urban and suburban viewers may be affected differently by those specific cognitive visual elements.
3. Explain the difference between urban and suburban viewers' emotionally engagement with each of the billboard images.
4. Identify visual semiotic codes in both images: metonymic, analogical, displaced, and condensed. Discuss the importance of using these codes. Include specific visuals in each part of your visual analysis.
As you outline your ideas for the video, you decide to record your verbal analysis while analyzing the two visuals in less than seven minutes for added clarity.

So many projects, so much mismanagement. That's the refrain of many IT executives. Indeed, even with project
management software, IT projects often wind up taking longer (much longer) than planned and costing more than
budgeted.
While no two projects are exactly the same, the issues that can affect — and potentially jeopardize — them are
often quite similar. And even good project managers can make mistakes when wrangling a big, complex project —
or when being bombarded with change requests..

The organization projects have a different strategical plan that can help in enterprise goals achievements. There are some of the projects that require some of the bulky of the activities that will help the business management to achieve the implemented goals and objectives using different ideas. There is a uniqueness of the project that can be detected to show some of the differences in the process and ensuring there is goals achievement in the completion of the project process. It is important to consider timelines when expecting the completion of the project.
The projects and daily activities have some of the differences since the projects take too long for its completion while daily activities take a short period. The implementation of the daily activities requires the business to have a continuous operation as deployed by business management. Moreover, the daily activities have no indicated date or schedule plans which are implemented in the project process to help in achieving the business goals.
The organization should create group management to help in making better decisions that will lead to effective practices that will increase the effectiveness of the project management by considering the team members' support and idea-sharing. The organization project should be recorded to make a comparison in some of the areas such as members' roles and responsibilities. Moreover, business management is recommended to focus on some of the areas where they consider the quality of the project's goals achievements. According to Jissink, Rohrbeck, & Schweitzer (2017), the implementation of the group or project team requires effective leadership skills to help in influencing the members for the project successful completion.
Ultimately, some of the challenges occur due to the use of information technology in some areas. The cybersecurity has been issued that interferes with most of the projects since there are some of the members that can leak the information to other business competitors thus exposing the business project planning. Moreover, the budget allocation can also be affected by the use of IT thus creating difficulties in project management, Papke-Shields, & Boyer-Wright (2017). The project's uniqueness should consider some of the needs in planning and having effective preparation for successful project completion.

NURS 6050: Policy and Advocacy for Improving Population Health
Walden University
In 2010 The Affordable Care Act (ACA) was enacted; the hope was to expand access to medical care, make coverage more affordable, and decrease the number of people without medical insurance. The Affordable Care Act (ACA) expanded and improved health insurance coverage in two primary ways. First, the number of individuals receiving insurance coverage grown by increasing access to coverage through Medicaid expansion and providing subsidies to purchase private insurance on the health care exchanges. Second, the ACA upgraded the quality and scope of coverage by improving benefit design, including implementing the essential health benefits (Willison & Singer, 2017). People who did not have coverage through their employer or Medicaid were required to purchase insurance through the Marketplace. The Marketplace was created as a one-stop-shop for people to view multiple plans and purchase insurance. Just because you have access to health care insurance does not mean you are going to receive quality health care (Teitelbaum, 2018).
Both parties have asked that the ACA be repealed or replaced for multiple reasons. Every Republican presidential candidate for 2016 has called for the repeal of the ACA. Some, but not all, Republican candidates have proposed health policies that they would like to put in place after repeal, but there is no broad agreement on a replacement for the ACA (Buettgens & Blumberg, 2016). The federal government would spend $90.9 billion less on health care for the nonelderly in 2021 if the ACA were repealed (Buettgens & Blumberg, 2016). State governments as a whole would spend $5.2 billion more on health care for the nonelderly in 2021 if the ACA were repealed (Buettgens & Blumberg, 2016). Healthcare is a priority to many Americans for obvious reasons; it was more costly for those with preexisting conditions before the ACA to obtain Medical Insurance. With the ACA the income guidelines for Medicaid where changed so additional people qualified that didn’t prior. As a Behavioral Health Nurse, I am a fan of anyone and everyone having access to Healthcare Services. I have seen to many times my patient not have the money for their medications because insurance was canceled so they go off their medications, they become unstable and ended up in the Emergency Department and admitted Inpatient, costing more money, hurting themselves and their loved ones.
Politicians are aware that election time is the best time to play the tug of war game with the heavy ticket items to capture someone votes. Republicans ran hard on promises to get rid of the law in every election since it passed in 2010. But when the GOP finally got control of the House, the Senate and the White House in 2017, Republicans found
they could not reach agreement
on how to "repeal and replace" the law (Kaiser Health News, 2018). And political strategists s.

I have worked in an outpatient behavioral health clinic for the past seven years with many different providers. I live in a rural community, many patients wait six to twelve months to be seen. Patients being treated for Attention Deficit Disorder must be officially tested before being seen by a Psychologist. For this discussion board post, I have changed the name of my patient to Paul to ensure patient confidentially. The provider I worked with this particular patient will also be referred to as PMHNP to ensure provider confidentiality.
Paul was a ten-year-old Caucasian male referred to our clinic diagnosed per DSM criteria, confirmed via Psychologist testing with ADHD. When he saw the Psychologist, he was also diagnosed with mild depression and anxiety. He struggled with concentration, hyperactivity, impulse control, and disorganization. He presented to his appointment with his mother and father, clean, well-nourished, pleasant, interactive with staff, reported no medication allergies, current medication Zyrtec for seasonal allergies. Paul just had his well-child exam and is current on vaccinations and his primary care provider completed lab work to include CBC, CMP, TSH, Vit D, B12, and A1C, all have returned normal. Family history reported father has a history of ADHD (never medicated), brother has a history of depression and anxiety (never medicated treating with psychotherapy), no other significant family history to report. Paul’s current weight at his appointment was 30kg.
PMHNP spent one hour with Paul and his parents for the initial new patient appointment (Thursday). It was decided Paul would be prescribed Strattera (atomoxetine) 40mg once a day for one week then increase to 80mg once a day. I returned to work on Monday and received a call from Paul’s mom, she said he was acting strange. He was tearful, had been in his room with the door closed for most of the weekend, she stated on Sunday she went into his room and he was crying and said he was just thinking about dying and his parents dying. She stated he had already had his meds Sunday so she kept him with her that entire day and made Sunday night a campout night in the Livingroom so he would think it was fun and she could keep a close eye on him. I had a cancelation that morning for him to come to see PMHNP and he was in to see her within twenty minutes and removed from Strattera. His parents decided medications were no longer the route they wanted to try for treatment and a referral was made for psychotherapy.
The only medication Paul takes on occasion is Zyrtec which is in an antihistamine drug class, Strattera is a selective norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor; there is no known drug interaction between the two medications. Reflecting on his age and the medication, Strattera has a black box labeled for suicidal ideation with adolescents dia.

My own attitude has changed from lack of understanding to enlightenment over the years. In elementary school I never experienced students with disabilities in my classrooms, growing up. But as the years went on and legislation changed students with disabilities started trickling into general education classrooms. They were always ignored by other students and often times had an aide to assist them with assignments. As an adult my heart has opened up to accept all types of people. In the Pennhurst documentary, it was reiterated, they are just people (Baldini, 1968). Which is my outlook on how to treat everyone. Every single person is a human being, treat them the way you wish to be treated. Everyone no matter their race, disability or socio-economic status deserves to be treated humanely.
As an educator I have worked with several different types of students. Students from low socio-economic areas, behavioral issues, vision impairments, hearing impairments, with autism, hyper activity and down syndrome, and with all of these students I have given them my best effort to show them that they are students first. Slavin and Schunk (2017) said it best, “Each student has many characteristics, and the disability is only one of them. To define the child in terms of the disability does him or her an injustice” (p. 235). It is our role as an educator to incorporate different learning styles to give each student, regardless of disabilities, the education that they deserve.
Welcoming students with disabilities into my classroom will be an important aspect in my role as an educator. Allowing each student to feel love and acceptance by peers is important for any students success. Van Brummelen (2009) states, “ It is important to appreciate students with special needs for who they are. Always look beyond their disabilities and teach them as whole persons” (p. 208). Being an advocate for my students with learning disabilities will garner them respect and dignity that they need to be self sufficient. In the Pennhurst documentary, the children did not have complete proper advocacy from the people that worked with them. They were simply shuffled along and not given the proper education and care that they needed to be self-sufficient (Baldini, 1968). “Defend the weak and the fatherless; uphold the cause of the poor and oppressed. Rescue the weak and the needy; deliver them from the hand of the wicked” (Psalm 82:3-4, New International Version). It is our Godly duty to defend individuals who can not defend themselves. In His eyes we are all created equal and in that we all deserve equal treatment and opportunities.

Measurement of the angle θ For better understanding .docxwkyra78
Measurement of the angle θ
For better understanding I am showing you a different particle track diagram bellow. Where at
point C particle 𝜋 − 𝑎𝑛𝑑 Σ− are created and the Σ− decays into 𝜋 ∓ 𝑎𝑛𝑑 K− particles
The angle θ between the π− and Σ− momentum vectors can be determined by drawing tangents
to the π− and Σ− tracks at the point of the Σ− decay. We can then measure the angle between
the tangents using a protractor. Alternative method which does not require a protractor is also
possible. Let AC and BC be the tangents to the π− and Σ− tracks respectively. Drop a
perpendicular (AB) and measure the distances AB and BC. The ratio AB/BC gives the tangent of
the angle180◦−θ. It should be noted that only some of the time will the angle θ exceed 90◦ as
shown here.
Determining the uncertainty of Measurements
In part B, It is asked to estimate the uncertainty of your measurements of 𝜃 and r.
Uncertainty of measurement is the doubt that exists about the result of any measurement. You
might think that well-made rulers, clocks and thermometers should be trustworthy, and give
the right answers. But for every measurement - even the most careful - there is always a margin
of doubt.
It is important not to confuse the terms ‘error’ and ‘uncertainty’.
Error is the difference between the measured value and the ‘true value’ of the thing being
measured.
Uncertainty is a quantification of the doubt about the measurement result
Since there is always a margin of doubt about any measurement, we need to ask ‘How big is the
margin?’ and ‘How bad is the doubt?’ Thus, two numbers are really needed in order to quantify
an uncertainty. One is the width of the margin, or interval. The other is a confidence level, and
states how sure we are that the ‘true value’ is within that margin.
You can increase the amount of information you get from your measurements by taking a
number of readings and carrying out some basic statistical calculations. The two most
important statistical calculations are to find the average or arithmetic mean, and the standard
deviation for a set of numbers.
The ‘true’ value for the standard deviation can only be found from a very large (infinite) set of
readings. From a moderate number of values, only an estimate of the standard deviation can be
found. The symbol s is usually used for the estimated standard deviation.
Suppose you have a set of n readings. Start by finding the average:
For the set of readings x={16, 19, 18, 16, 17, 19, 20, 15, 17 and 13}, the average is �̅� =

Meaning-Making Forum 2 (Week 5)
Meaning-Making Forums 1-4 are this course's unique final project.
Be fully engaged in Phase Two!
After reviewing the readings, presentations, lecture notes, articles, and web-engagements, and previous assignments, artificially move your predetermined careseeker (i.e., Crossroads’ Careseekers: Bruce, Joshua, Brody, Justin, or Melissa) through Phase Two.
NOTE: These research-based forums require that you draw upon ALL
of the course readings and learning activities to date, in order to substantively develop each phase in our
Solution
-based, Short-term, Pastoral Counseling (SbStPC) process. Noticeably support each core assertion.
Rapport and Relational Alignment.
Briefly discuss how you will continue to build rapport and shift your relational style in order to best align with the careseeker’s style (i.e., use DISC language) and current behavioral position (i.e., attending, blaming, or willing).
Phase Two Distinctive Features.
Narrate movement of careseeker through Phase Two’s distinctive features (i.e., purpose, goal, chief aim, role/responsibility, use of guiding assumptions) and apply pertinent insights and techniques from ALL the readings, previous assignments, and the Bible.
Supportive Feedback Break.
What portrait, definition(s), key thought(s), and/or assessment insight from the
Quick Reference Guide
might be utilized in the supportive feedback technique?
Phase Two Marker.
Describe a marker that indicates you have collaboratively ‘imagineered” a picture of life without the problem. In what way does this marker indicate the careseeker is in a willing position and ready for Phase Three?
Food for Thought:
When learning a new people skill or counseling technique, is it normal to “feel” awkward and fake? Use at least 1 example and thoughtfully explain how this “feeling” might be normalized.
TIPS:
Carefully Follow Meaning-Making Forum Guidelines & Tips!
Make sure to use headings (5) so that the most inattentive reader may easily follow your thoughts.
Use the annotated outline approach. Bullets should have concise, complete, well-developed sentences or paragraphs.
Foster a “noble-minded” climate for investigating claims through well-supported core assertions (i.e., consider the validation pattern of the Bereans; Acts 17:11).
Noticeably support assertions to facilitate further investigation and to avoid the appearance of plagiarism.
Since you have the required materials (e.g.,
Masterpiece)
, abridge any related citations (Nichols, p. 12) and do not list the required source in a References’ section.
Secondary sources must follow current APA guidelines for citations and References.
Make every effort to prove that you care about the subject matter by proofreading to eliminate grammar and spelling distractions.

Mediation

AMU

Mediation
Recently, I had a dispute with a friend based on sharing of roles and duties at work. If I were to use a mediation to solve the conflict I would have used facilitative mediation instead of evaluative mediation. Facilitative mediation refers to the types of solving conflicts where the mediator creates a process to assist the parties in reaching into a mutual agreement. Evaluative mediation on the other hand refers to the type of mediation where the judge helps the parties in reaching into a resolution through using the weakness of the case (Shrout & Bolger, 2017). The nature of the dispute plays a very huge role when choosing the type of mediation style to use. Since some cases can not fit well or makes it hard to find a solution when using a certain mediation style. For instance work related disputes and family related disputes require mediation that won’t seem to favor one party.
I would use transformative mediation, since it is mostly bases on improving the personal power of each party (Folberg & Taylor, 2016). Also transformative mediation mainly helps in creating a sense of understanding between the two parties through communication so as to solve the dispute. And lastly the reason why I would use the mediation is because; the process that is used does not favor one party. During the process, the mediator listens to both parties and from this he or she is able to help in making the two understand each other and be able to come into a mutual agreement.

Response 1 PD
Question 1
A set of beliefs, norms and values that is shared by a group, culture is a systemic sense that can create a common commitment to an organization’s mission. With identifying markers that extend beyond the individual, it can be represented in a fabric of shared themes and feelings. Whether displayed in forms of dress, symbols, verbal phrases or typical behaviors, its permeance can be silent in its mode of action, yet quite visible to internal and external stakeholders (Daft, 2018).
Serving two fundamental and critical functions, the culture of an organization can be a catalyst in uniting members in how they relate to one another within the organization and how the members follow the same process in relation to the outside environment (Daft, 2018). However, although it is often associated with ethical decision making (Kara, Rojas-Mendez & Turan), the element of inequality can create fear and discourse if an unrealistic and bias culture themes are dictated, thus resulting in disagreement or conflict with management. Therefore, the perception of stakeholders or groups of interest regarding the cultural practices of the organization may not be entirely correct (Gonzalez-Rodriguez, Diaz-Fernández & Biagio, 2019).
Directly related to the perception of the value system of the organization and its management, the acceptable cultural differences that shape the internal behavior of members can have an impact in external relationships (Gonzalez-Rodriguez, Diaz-Fernández & Biagio, 2019). However, as Daft (2018) noted, a mechanistic or controlling system may block any organic input,.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

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.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Business Need
The project manager will be hosting an evening lounge event
that will be targeting the clientele to an upscale lounge to be
built in downtown. Through such an event the city will have a
positive exposure.
There will be need for effective marketing, music, modern décor
and most likely investors. The menu for food and drinks will
need to be within budget. The venue needs to have amiable
space and adequate seats for all guests.
The first step to this project involves coming up with a plan on
a piece of paper. Once this is done the next step will involve
selection of vendors to various goods and services. Once
everything has been put to perspective the next stage will be to
involve investors who will include local business owners. These
investors will be encouraged to do so with the exchange for
them to market and advertise their products at the event. We
will have three packages for investors including Silver, Gold
and Platinum packages.
Project Objectives
The proposal is to have a social entertainment evening lounge in
Chicago. The project managers will be showcasing the new
concept of entertainment by holding a series of events known as
“The Place to be!”
· The events will be used to showcase the atmosphere that the
new lounge will be offering
3. · The events will offer the professional audiences an
opportunity to network while at the same time being
entertained.
· The events will be targeting an audience of 150 attendants
· To have an environment where attendants can dance, dine and
drink socially while discussing business.
Approach
This project will be managed in accordance with the PMI
approach as modified.
Assumptions/Constraints/Dependencies
The assumption is that with the provision of an exquisite and
upscale venue that is mature in Chicago, IL, will be successful
due to the fact that there is no such a venue within a 100 mile
radius.
One of the likely constraint is finding a venue that grabs
attention of the targeted crowd.
The success of these events depends on attracting two sets of
individuals. One of them is investors and the other is private
professionals who will attend a social event at night.
Initial Risk Factors
· Obtaining a liquor license on time for the event is the major
risk factor.
· Failure of attendees despite investing money and time is
another risk.
· Failing to complete the organizational plans within 30 days
before the event series begin.
· Not attracting any viable investors
Regulatory cost/impact
4. One of the needed licensing is from the city council where I
will be required to get a special event license. This will enable
us to have alcohol in the premises. There will be need for
security and fire reviews from the respective departments of
city council. The parking code and regulations for the venue
will also have to be looked into seriously.

6. Executive Summary
In this paper the article, “An Experiential Case Study in IT
Project Management Planning: The Petroleum Engineering
Economics Evaluation Software Imperative,” which was written
by Charles Davis will be critically analyzed. The author will
then continue to develop three major concerns from the article
and at the same time offer possible solutions to the raised
concerns. The paper will also try to analyze and describe
potential risks that the project may likely encounter.
Introduction
The article by Charles Davis entitled, “An Experiential Case
Study in IT Project Management Planning: The Petroleum
Engineering Economics Evaluation Software Imperative” is
crucial to scholars of project management especially in regards
to the planning phase. The article has also addressed certain
notions within the development of a project and certain issues
that may arise in the planning process. Human resource matters
within a project are crucial and therefore a need for appropriate
7. experience level to be able to deal with the same;
Concerns and Possible
Solution
s
Concern 1
The first concern that faces Hopkins & Associates is the
completion of the project and their credibility in the future. The
credibility of a company solely depends on its continuance to
produce high quality products that are of use to the clients. In
case the company fails to produce a high quality product its
market share and future credibility will be hurt. This therefore
means that the company under all means has to produce a
successful PREsys computer software. All stakeholders should
be concerned with the prospects of this project since the
reputation and credibility relies on its success.
One of the solutions that the company can implement is the use
of simulations using real life verifiable data. A committee made
up of engineers and IT experts needs to verify the results of
these simulations. Once it’s ascertained that the software can
provide successful situations then there is a likelihood of its
success.
8. Concern 2
Another concern that Davis has illustrated is the very fact that
the institution is not staffed with employees possessing the
much needed experience in engineering. Davis (2005) writes
“Ken Summers’s mentally scrolls through his rolodex of
employees (all of whom appear to be incredibly talented) and
none seem to “fit the bill.” Except one, his star employee or his
“ace in the hole.” Gardner has the experience and needed
credibility for the project however Davis notes that his ethics
and judgement are a potential risk to the project, (Davis, 2005).
The scope of such a huge project should not be allowed to rest
on the shoulders of one man.
To deal with this concern Hopkins & Associates should employ
the services of contractors who have experience in dealing with
such projects. As is the case with many companies, the firm
should ensure that no employee is irreplaceable due to their
unique experiences. Having too much stress and pressure into a
few employees from different sections of the project could
proof to be disastrous. Errors and miscalculations are likely to
occur costing the company its reputation and huge costs.
Concern 3
The top management of the firm and its executives do not
understand the potential of this software and therefore are likely
to be misguided. The top management lack of knowledge in the
9. project is another concern raised by Davis. He states that the
top management of Hopkins & Associates see it as a threat if
the matter is not addressed abruptly and therefore require that
the software is quickly developed and this needs to be done as
soon as possible (Davis, 2005).
Software development is a tricky affair this is due to the fact
that it requires coming up with the code, testing it and retesting
it and the eventual editing of the same code which should be
followed with more testing and adjustments. The managers want
to quicken the process which is likely to lead to more errors and
problems which will lead to mechanical problems. With the
management not being aware of the needed time and amount of
work to be put into this project the top management is risking
the success of the software.
The senior management forecasts that this project will be highly
successful and that the only solution is for them to trust and
have faith the project managers. They should give the
developers and team managers, “a reasonable chance of
developing a first-rate system that will meet the needs identified
while standing up to the time pressures effectively” (Davis,
2005).
Risks facing the project
From the analysis of this article there are two specific and
serious risks that Davis has written about in the article. He has
described the risks as being diametrically opposed to the other
10. (Davis, 2005). One of the risks is the possibility that the system
will not be ready on time. Hopkins & Associates will be at risk
of losing their covetous position in the oil and gas consultation
industry. The second risk that Davis points out is the fact that
the PREsys software could be introduced into the market before
it is ready for use. Considering the oil and gas industry this
could proof fatal for Hopkins & Associates. One needs to also
consider that if this software is not introduced into the market
on time then another firm is likely to do the same before them
leading to a monetary loss on the firm.
Investing on a project that has very many unknowns is not a
wise business decision. The management of the company needs
to examine and consider all relevant risk assessments and
clearly understand the likely consequences if the project is not
completed as planned. They should then make a decision
whether the risk was worth it in the first place. It was premature
to approve this project as it was important that there be a well
laid out plan to enable the so=mooth running of the project.
