Jarno reflects on improvements in his English presentation skills over the semester. His goal was to improve his presentations, which he saw as the most important aspect of language learning. His first Pecha Kucha presentation did not go well due to having too much text, but his second persuasive presentation went much better after speaking more slowly and relaxed. Jarno acknowledges that language skills are important for his future career, and while he is not naturally talented with languages, he will work hard in his remaining marketing degree language courses to succeed. He appreciated the creative, hands-on teaching style this semester and feels it was more effective for learning English than theoretical lessons alone.

Qiana Martin is passionate about soccer and its ability to serve as a "universal language." She shares how playing soccer helped her communicate with teammates in Brazil despite language barriers. Soccer allowed them to bond through their common interest in the game rather than differences in native tongues. Qiana encourages developing fluency in soccer's universal language by exposing more youth to the sport and seeking international experiences playing with diverse cultures to strengthen soccer's role as a global connector.
The document discusses risks associated with international trade. It provides 3 examples:
1. More than 90% of world trade is transported by sea, with the largest container ships worth over $1 billion. However, ports concentrate even greater value, with ports like Singapore and Hamburg handling goods worth tens of billions each day.
2. Outsourcing production to low-wage countries can reduce costs but also quality, resulting in recall costs or product liability costs from defective products. Recent examples mentioned are toys with lead paint and toothpaste contaminated with antifreeze.
3. Liability losses from pharmaceuticals causing dangerous side effects can be extreme, with some extremely high damages awards in the US.

There were three systemic reasons for the financial crisis according to the document: 1) Misaligned incentives throughout the financial system that encouraged short-term risk taking; 2) Poor risk management as financial models like Value at Risk failed to properly account for rare risks and historical data may not predict future returns; 3) Interactive complexity in the tightly coupled financial system where unexpected interactions could spread problems widely without opportunities to intervene. Addressing these issues around incentives, risk management, and reducing complexity will be needed to prevent future crises, though they may appear different the outcomes will likely be similar if these underlying problems remain.
Risk is defined as the likelihood and consequence of a hazardous event. A risk assessment involves carefully examining potential hazards in the work environment and determining the likelihood and severity of injury or harm. Risk assessments are carried out by identifying hazards, evaluating the risks, and implementing controls to mitigate risks. The assessment should involve workers and consider varying site conditions. Ongoing monitoring is needed to ensure effective implementation of risk controls.
This assignment was for an Event Management class at Full Sail University. I learned a lot about risk management during my time in the class and this assignment showcases my understanding of risk assessments and also how important it is to properly plan ahead.
Risk refers to the possibility of loss or an unfavorable outcome from an action or event. It includes two elements - an uncertain outcome and the possibility of an unfavorable result. There are several types of risk including pure risk (loss or no loss), speculative risk (loss, gain, or no change), and fundamental risk that affects large populations. Businesses also face strategic, compliance, operational, financial, and reputational risks. Perils are the causes of potential losses, such as natural events, theft, riots, strikes, accidents, and economic downturns. Hazards increase the severity of losses from perils. Risk management aims to reduce or mitigate risks and losses through insurance and other techniques.
This document discusses risk and its treatment. It begins with definitions of risk and discusses the various types of risk individuals and businesses face, such as personal risks, property risks, and liability risks. It also outlines techniques for managing risk, such as avoidance, loss control, retention, non-insurance transfers, and insurance. The document provides learning objectives, outlines the key topics, and includes short answer questions, multiple choice questions, true/false questions, and case applications related to risk management.

This document discusses various examples of risks and lessons learned from failures to properly account for and manage risks. It describes risks that led to the BP oil spill, fracking accidents, ignition issues at GM that caused deaths, and emissions cheating at VW. It argues that conventional accounting focuses only on profits and ignores external risks. A new approach called True Value Accounting is needed that incorporates risks and their potential long-term costs and impacts. Proper risk management requires quantifying the scale of risks, likelihood of events, sufficient insurance pools, and periodic payments into those pools.

RISK should not be ignored. Risk should not be discounted in the same way that future profits may be discounted, and risk should not be gamed so that it is handled by society at large rather than the responsible parties. This is becoming more and more important as existential threats like climate change, sea level rise and social unrest emerge.

The document provides a summary of three case studies on public relations crises: the 2010 BP Deepwater Horizon oil spill, the 1982 Chicago Tylenol murders, and the 2015 Germanwings plane crash. It analyzes how each company handled the crisis in terms of reacting, researching, responding, and showing remorse. BP is presented as an example of poor crisis management, failing to empathize with victims and showing indifference through statements by the former CEO. In contrast, Tylenol handled the crisis well through effective communication and recall of products, maintaining public trust. Germanwings is still ongoing so public opinion is still forming. The document advocates for prepared crisis management plans and responsible, empathetic responses to prevent further reputational
This memo discusses the author's views on risk in investing. Some key points:
1) The future is unpredictable and risk cannot be precisely quantified, but should be viewed as a range of possible outcomes. Experts can provide subjective estimates of probabilities.
2) While many outcomes are possible, only one will occur. Superior investors have insight into assessing the likelihood of various outcomes and whether potential returns compensate for risks.
3) Risky investments must appear likely to provide higher returns to attract investors, but higher perceived risk does not guarantee higher actual returns. The relationship between risk and return is based on opinions, not facts.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.
