The Final (Signature Assignment) Complete and submit Case 6 on page 481. Elle Zane-Leading Change at Tufts/NEMC. Below are the five "5" questions I would like for everyone to answer. CASE QUESTIONS 1. Who are the stakeholders that you identified in each sub-story? What do they have at stake? 2. This is a long list of stakeholders who have various needs and interests. What’s significant about this list of stakeholders and their interests? What can we learn from this exercise-case? 3. It is Spring 2011 and the nurses at Tufts Medical Center are threatening to strike. As Zane thinks about and plans to negotiate with MNA, how is this negotiation different from and similar to her negotiation with Blue Cross Blue Shield’s CEO? 4. Is Zane’s power base different when she is negotiating with Blue Cross Blue Shield than when she is negotiating with nurses at TMC? 5. What do you think happened in the nurses’ strike at TMC? .

1. Describe a situation in which the nurse manager would use problem resolution in the workplace. Describe a situation in which the nurse manager would use negotiation to resolve a conflict (or potential conflict) in the workplace.
Problem-solving skill is essential for any work environment. And the healthcare field is no exception. Especially for nurses who often deals with many people like, patients, doctors, other team members, patient’s families etc. While dealing with so many people and different variables, problems and disagreements arise. So, having a nurse manager that have leadership and conflict resolution skills is essential to help diffuse any adverse situation, and as a result, promoting a peaceful and friendly environment. Conflict often occurs in the hospital setting, especially between new nurses and more experienced staff. At one point, a family member expressed concern that a CNA was not attending the patient’s call lights in an acceptable time manner. I discussed and validated their concerns. In a private setting, I called the CNA aside and spoke with him about it. The CNA was very upset and felt it was not my place to tell him about it. The concerns of the family or the patient should never be dismissed. I spoke with the unit nurse manager to use the opportunity as a teaching moment. Healthcare providers are human, so it is normal for tensions to escalate at times. When that happens, it is the nurse manager duty to negotiate an acceptable solution, especially when the conflict is affecting patient care. Problem-solving is at the center of nursing practices and it is very important for nurses to improve their problem-solving skills to increase the patient care quality (Erol, Tanrikulu, Dikmen, & Akduran, 2016).
2. Compare and contrast strategies for resolving a conflict, using first the informal negotiation method and then the formal negotiation method.
The process of resolving a conflict is a complex one that requires much careful thought beforehand and considerable skill in its implementation. The nurse manager must react knowing which are the sources of conflict, the mechanisms for their production and resolution. And more importantly, knowing how to solve them, whether in an active, regulatory or passive way.
It is essential to know that not all conflicts should be allowed to evolve without intervention. Poorly managed conflict and unresolved conflict have an influence on individuals, organizations, and, most importantly, patient outcomes (Johansen & Mary, 2012).
Handling conflict informally, as the name already says is basically trying to solve the problem in a more amicable and informal way. This approach entails, promoting communication, being a caring and effective listener, identify points of agreement and disagreement, development a plan for working each disagreement, and implementation of the plan..

To help with holistic and timely healing of sexual assault patients, shortage of resources should be addressed and more sexual assault team members must be procured. This is a vicious cycle that needs to be addressed by the community as a whole. The turnover rate for SANE nurses is high, while sexual assault patients face long-term mental and physical effects. Additionally, the society they live in engage in victim-blaming, and their trauma is minimized. While healthcare institutions are challenged with the pandemic, sexual abuse rates, and their intensity have risen with lockdowns. Although, methods to improve the quality of care are ongoing; additional steps should be taken to control further damage. This paper will give an overview of the SANE program, present the ongoing issues faced by sexual assault patients and some possible solutions to these issues.
Literature Review
ProQuest was primarily used for searching for all 4 Journal articles and Google Scholar was used for the 2 websites. The terms “sexual assault”, “shortage of forensic nurses”, PTSD in sexual assault victims” etc. were used. Articles within 5 years was entered in the filter.
The first article explained the duties of these health care workers. It explained that these nurses examine the victim to obtain proof of an assault or physical injury. The proof is provided as evidence during the hearing of the case. The nurses also pose questions to the victims to evaluate the assault deeply for a clearer picture of the case scenario. They also administer drugs to prevent any infection as well as testing for pregnancy (Delgadillo, 2017)
The second article induced an existing shortage of SANE nurses in the majority of the developing countries. That goes hand in hand with a shortage of screening facilities in their health care centers. As the article elaborated, there are few forensic programs infiltrated in hospitals. According to SANE, Nurses are in very high demand in many countries. It further claimed that the available number of nurses is minimal. Considering the highly developing emergency cases (Lavoie et al., 2020)
The third article provided a definition and a better understanding of the term assault, SANE and Forensic nurses. It describes sexual assault as any unwilling sexual activity. It provided the more extended version of the abbreviation, SANE, as Sexual Assault Nurse examiner. It defined the SANE of the nurse who topped up studies on matters related to sexual harassment. These nurses give services to vict ...

Embracing human-centered design means believing that all problems,
even the seemingly intractable ones like poverty, gender equality,
and clean water, are solvable. Moreover, it means believing that the
people who face those problems every day are the ones who hold the
key to their answer. Human-centered design offers problem solvers of
any stripe a chance to design with communities, to deeply understand
the people they’re looking to serve, to dream up scores of ideas, and to
create innovative new solutions rooted in people’s actual needs.

The Federal Response to Hurricane Katrina Lessons Learned (Febru.docx
The
Federal Response to Hurricane Katrina Lessons Learned
(February, 2006) recommended that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) establish a National Exercise and Evaluation Program (NEEP). By extension, the NEEP designated the Homeland Security Exercise and Evaluation Program (HSEEP) as a way to standardize exercise planning and execution across governmental levels and sectors. Not all nongovernmental organizations use HSEEP in full or even partially. However, communities, states, and various federal agencies are expected to adopt and employ its tenets. Certainly, it provides the standard that is employed in the National Exercise Program (NEP). The HSEEP provides a standardized methodology for planners to use in designing, developing, conducting, evaluating, and improving exercises and training.
The HSEEP also serves as an extensive resource, replete with useful tools, templates, and examples for building exercises and determining training needs, creating training events, and assessing the merits of all related activities. As you know or are learning, training and exercises are ideally integrated, not merely linked. What is the difference between these concepts of
linked
and
integrated
? Exercises that are linked to training may (or may not) draw directly or indirectly from training drills and events. Exercises that integrate training are considerably more dynamic, with training occurring as the exercise unfolds. This latter technique better develops critical thinking, problem-solving, leadership, and decision-making abilities as well.
The following illustration should clarify this benefit:
Soldiers and law enforcement personnel routinely attend weapons ranges to practice and qualify on their assigned weapons. This training helps them to maintain proficiency or improve in their individual skills. Consider an exercise that links this specific training to other training. The soldiers are completing a special obstacle course in which they run, climb rope ladders, swing over water obstacles, etc. Sometime during the course, they shoot at targets and then dismantle weapons under timed conditions and must achieve a certain score on their target hits. There is linkage to firing weapons accurately to the overall stress-inducing obstacle course.
Integrating the weapons training might look like the following: Soldiers, equipped with laser-emitting weapons, and wearing special sensors on their helmets and vests, commence to move in tactical formations proceeding through wooded (or desert, jungle, etc.) environments. Another group of soldiers, also equipped with special weapons and sensors, plays the opposing force. The two groups engage in realistic combat operations requiring accurate weapons fire, plus evasive movement, simulated first aid, evacuation of casualties, and other assorted requirements. In this case, firing a weapon potentially has an offensive and defensive role, yet is one part of a whole scenario. (You might substitute law en.

The Federal Reserve System was established to provide a stable m.docx
The Federal Reserve System was established to provide a stable monetary system for the entire economy. The Federal Reserve Bank (the Fed) has three major tools to control the money supply: 1) reserve requirements, 2) discount window for loans to member banks, and 3) open market operations.
When the economy is in a recessionary mode, what will likely be the actions by the Federal Reserve using monetary policy? Suppose the Federal Reserve purchases a $100,000 bond from John Doe, who deposits the proceeds in the Manufacturer's National Bank; what will be the impact of this transaction on the supply of money?
How do each of the Fed's tools work? What is the fractional reserve system, and how does it work in relation to the Fed? Review the Federal Reserve System and how the Fed alters the monetary base to achieve the levels of money supply in the economy.

Bryane Michael & Maja Popov
Published online: 25 November 2014
# Springer Science+Business Media New York 2014
Abstract What does theory predict about the way government size and structure
adapts to changes in government’s organisational environment (particularly to
uncertainty and complexity)? In this paper, we review the theory and evidence
from the literature about the way government size adjusts to such changes –
particularly to changes in macroeconomic fundamentals like gross national prod-
uct (GDP). We find that the traditional theories from the organisational theory
literature—like the contingency-based view, resource-based view and the rational
choice view – fail to provide global explanations for much of the variation we
see in the world around us. Instead, theorists need to adopt a “mosaic view” of
organisational theory – accepting that different theories may explain the way
public sector size and structure responds to the uncertainty and variability in its
(macroeconomic) organisational environment. We also provide several empirical
hypotheses to test such a mosaic-view.

Introduction
Despite over 40 years of theorizing about public sector organisation, we still know very
little about how government responds to changes in its organisational environment. A
variety of theories predict how government size and structure should respond to the
national macroeconomic environment it regulates (as well as buys and sells labour, capital
and goods in). Contingency theorists argue – though are now in relative disrepute – that
government departments and agencies grow, shrink, divide and/or merge in response to
changes in the macroeconomic environment (Gupta et al. 1994). Resource-based theorists

Project Overview Statement
Executive Summary
Team #3 is proposing a software development/upgrade project to move from the legacy software/database MANFACT, to SyteLine® ERP inventory and financial database, to meet the needs of the growing business. This project is in line with the strategic objective of increasing sales and improving customer satisfaction by improving on time delivery at the Los Angeles, CA facility. This ERP software is in use at other facilities in the parent organization for many years now and has been successful in improving performance and delivery as well as reduced inventory levels and improved sales and bookings. This project has a preliminary budget of $500,000 with a duration of 12 -18 months.
Statement of Scope
This project will be company-wide and implemented in all departments and areas of the company. The new software Syteline® (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ZLEMmqTdoE), will reduce the amount of manual tracking of jobs (phone calls, emails, manual excel schedules, attending department meetings, etc.) by providing real-time communication of timelines and part movement and flow throughout the shop and along with status of open programs or large jobs. It will also improve On Time Delivery (OTD) performance through enhanced planning and scheduling of orders. Reduction of lead times (customer delivery) through the elimination of wasted processes and excessive move and queue times built in because of manual processes.
We intend to complete this transformation by:
· Converting existing data into the new ERP database.
· Upgrade server and network equipment to meet increased traffic demands.
· Run pilot programs in parallel to test and verify new process capabilities.
· Create standard work for each department
· Train all employees that would use this system from managers to leads, from sales to production, and engineering to purchasing.

The Federal Judiciary I. Constitutional Provisions .docx
The Federal Judiciary
I. Constitutional Provisions
A. Article III of the Constitution - “The judicial Power in the United States, shall be vested
in one supreme Court, and in such inferior Courts as the Congress may from time to time
ordain and establish.” Also provides for lifetime tenure.
B. Marbury v. Madison (1803) - - gave the judicial branch the power to of judicial review -
decide on the constitutionality of legislative enactments and executive actions.
II. The Legal System
A. Criminal and Civil Law
1. Criminal Law - the branch of law dealing with crimes and their punishments.
(Murder, rape, robbery) state v citizen, innocent until proven guilty, burden of
proof on government, beyond a reasonable doubt
2. Civil Law - is the body of law dealing with noncriminal matters, such as the laws
of property, commercial law, and family law. (Employment discrimination)
citizen v citizen, threshold of proof is lower, PREPONDERANCE OF
EVIDENCE.
B. Jurisdiction - the authority to hear and decide cases.
1. Original Jurisdiction - refers to a court’s authority to hear disputes as a trial
court (Ex. O. J. Simpson’s case was held in a state level trial court). The facts of
the case are established at the trial court level. More than 90 percent of all cases
end at this stage.
2. Appellate Jurisdiction - refers to a court’s ability to review cases already decided
by a trial court.
III. The U.S. Court System: Organization and Jurisdiction
A. Federal District Courts - are trial courts. There are 94, based on population but with at
least one in each state.
1. They are courts of original jurisdiction.
2. Some use juries (either grand jury to decide if there is sufficient evidence to bring
an indictment to an accused person or petit jury that hear evidence and sit in
judgment) and other cases are heard by only a judge.
B. Circuit Court of Appeal - are intermediate appellate courts. There are 12, based on
regions or circuits that hear appeals from the federal district court. A thirteenth court, U.S.
Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, hears cases on patents and government contracts.
Usually, a group of three judges decides their cases.
C. Supreme Court - is the ultimate appellate court. Most cases that it hears have proceeded
through the lower courts first. Today, we have 8 justices and one chief justice - 9 in total.
1. Decisions of the U.S. Supreme Court are binding throughout the nation and
establish legal precedents.
2. Also has original jurisdiction - disputes involving ambassadors, two or more
states, etc.
IV. Judicial Selection - the president’s means of exercising leadership of the judicial branch
is through the nomination of federal judges.
A. Selection of Lower-Court Judges - this involves the federal district courts and the
court of appeals. The president nominates for a lifetime tenure and the Senate must
confirm each nomination by a majority vo.
The federal government has assumed responsibility for educating .docx
The federal government has assumed responsibility for educating children living on federal property since the 1800s by paying those children’s school tuition. The advent of the Korean War led to a significant increase in military housing. Military installations began building schools on federal properties in the southern states in the early 1950s.
There are several reasons why military children began attending schools on military installations rather than the local public schools, also known as Local Education Activities (LEAs). One significant reason is related to desegregation. Desegregation in the U.S. Military occurred prior to desegregation in public education. To support its own desegregation policies and the type of community these policies fostered, the government established desegregated schools for the children of military personnel.
In addition, state law prohibited the expenditure of tax revenues for the education of children living on federal property. The military decided to build its own schools for the children of military personnel rather than paying for these children to attend local public schools.
At present, all stateside U.S. Department of Defense Educational Activity (DoDEA) schools fall under the responsibility of the Department of Defense Title 10 under the direction of the Secretary of Defense. The overseas schools (or, DoDDS) fall under the responsibility of Title 20, Department of Education (DoDEA; School Boards for Department of Defense Domestic Schools Training Materials, 2012).
Throughout the years, there have been many changes and shifts, as well as attempts to reintegrate children into LEAs. From time to time, the cost of supporting the schools is brought into question. In addition, whenever a military installation closes, its associated school, if any, closes too.
Not all military children attend schools on military installations. Many receive quality educations at their LEAs. Regardless if a military child attends a school on a military installation or an LEA, it is important for helping professionals to know the types of education available to military children, to know how to support the needs of these students, and to know the laws that protect and support the social, emotional, and academic success of military children.
For this paper, take into account what you have learned so far about military culture, review the two videos assigned this week, and conduct some additional research to deepen your understanding of the education of military children.
Submit
a 3- to 4-page paper in which you:
Choose one family from the videos and briefly describe their circumstances as if they were an identified client
Explain how the DoDEA school system could be utilized to help the family you chose
Analyze how the scenarios discussed or circumstances may have been different in a civilian school
Explain what social work strategies you would utilize with this family
Explain how military culture played a part .
The Facts Peel Factor is the leading fruit juice provider .docx
The Facts
Peel Factor is the leading fruit juice provider in the country. The company is family owned and has been headed by brothers, Ted and Kiki, since the untimely passing of their father a few years ago. Kiki is the face of the enterprise and acts as the Executive Director of Peel Factor, soaking in all the plaudits for how well the company has performed. Ted is the reliable right-hand man who, until recently, faithfully executes his duties as one of the directors. Unbeknownst to Kiki, Ted has always felt that he can do a better job than his brother in leading the company, if given the chance to do so.
Secretly, Ted has been approached by a talent scout hired by Fresh Inc., who is Peel Factor’s direct competitor. Ted is intrigued by Fresh Inc.’s offer to head their company and is tempted by the potential to achieve recognition for his business sense and administrative ability. He gives his in-principle agreement to Fresh Inc. to accept their offer. Out of brotherly love, he decides to inform Kiki first before signing the employment contract proper.
Unfortunately for Ted, a local news reporter gets wind of the intended appointment and releases the news via the country’s premier social media app. Kiki is enraged by this perceived “betrayal” and goes to talk to Ted, hoping to come to an agreement on the way forward.
However, once he gets to the office, Kiki loses it and castigates Ted, calling him “a wastrel and a disgrace to the family.” Ted tries to ignore Kiki and refuses to speak to him initially. Kiki then goes on to tell Ted that he “is the reason why father passed on early,” because Ted “is such a disappointment.” Kiki also says that Ted is “lousy” and that is why he “failed” at his job, and that the company would do much better without him, even though he has no evidence for this statement.
Unable to hold it together any longer, Ted yells that Kiki has “always been the spoilt favourite family brat” and has only got so far because he is “tied to mummy’s apron strings.” Incensed at the situation, Kiki then proposes to buy back Ted’s shares in the family business for $0.04 per share even though he knows that the market price is $0.20 per share. Ted shouts back that Kiki has always been a “bully” since Ted lost Kiki’s favourite stuffed toy in their youth, even though Ted knows this has nothing to do with the current dispute.
Kiki and Ted then both claim that they will each hear from their respective lawyers about this situation.
Inwardly, Kiki is devastated. He has always wanted the family business to do well and wanted to keep his family together. Before their father passed, Kiki promised to take care of his brother and now the family seems to be torn asunder. Heartbroken, Kiki wishes deeply to keep the promise to his late father. In fact, Kiki actually thought he was grooming Ted to eventually take over from him in the near future. Further, he is extremely concerned about losing his existing clients as well as his staff.

Reflections on the Efficient Market
Hypothesis: 30 Years Later
Burton G. Malkiel∗
Princeton University
Abstract
In recent years financial economists have increasingly questioned the efficient market
hypothesis. But surely if market prices were often irrational and if market returns were as
predictable as some critics have claimed, then professionally managed investment funds should
easily be able to outdistance a passive index fund. This paper shows that professional investment
managers, both in The U.S. and abroad, do not outperform their index benchmarks and provides
evidence that by and large market prices do seem to reflect all available information.
Keywords: efficient markets, stock market predictability
JEL Classifications: G12, G14
I have been an advocate of the efficient market hypothesis for over 30 years.
In my view, equity prices adjust to new information without delay and, as a result,
no arbitrage opportunities exist that would allow investors to achieve above-average
returns without accepting above-average risk. This hypothesis is associated with the
view that stock market price movements approximate those of a random walk. If
new information develops randomly, then so will market prices, making the stock
market unpredictable apart from its long-run uptrend. I suggested, largely in jest, that

a blindfolded chimpanzee throwing darts at the stock pages could select a portfolio
that would do as well as the experts.1 In fact, the correct analogy is to throw a towel
over the stock pages and simply buy an index fund, which buys and holds all the
stocks making up a broad stock-market index.
In recent years, many financial economists have come to question the efficient
market hypothesis. At least ex-post, there seem to be several instances where market
prices failed to reflect available information.2 Moreover, periods of large-scale irra-
tionality, such as the technology-internet “bubble” of the late 1990s extending into
early 2000, have convinced many analysts that the efficient market hypothesis should
be rejected.3 In addition, financial econometricians have suggested that stock prices
are, to a significant extent, predictable on the basis either of past returns or of certain
valuation metrics such as dividend yields and price-earning ratios.4
Although it is possible to cast doubt on the statistical robustness of many of the
predictable patterns that have been suggested,5 my skepticism is based on somewhat
different evidence. Surely, if market prices often faile.

The
Federal Response to Hurricane Katrina Lessons Learned
(February, 2006) recommended that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) establish a National Exercise and Evaluation Program (NEEP). By extension, the NEEP designated the Homeland Security Exercise and Evaluation Program (HSEEP) as a way to standardize exercise planning and execution across governmental levels and sectors. Not all nongovernmental organizations use HSEEP in full or even partially. However, communities, states, and various federal agencies are expected to adopt and employ its tenets. Certainly, it provides the standard that is employed in the National Exercise Program (NEP). The HSEEP provides a standardized methodology for planners to use in designing, developing, conducting, evaluating, and improving exercises and training.
The HSEEP also serves as an extensive resource, replete with useful tools, templates, and examples for building exercises and determining training needs, creating training events, and assessing the merits of all related activities. As you know or are learning, training and exercises are ideally integrated, not merely linked. What is the difference between these concepts of
linked
and
integrated
? Exercises that are linked to training may (or may not) draw directly or indirectly from training drills and events. Exercises that integrate training are considerably more dynamic, with training occurring as the exercise unfolds. This latter technique better develops critical thinking, problem-solving, leadership, and decision-making abilities as well.
The following illustration should clarify this benefit:
Soldiers and law enforcement personnel routinely attend weapons ranges to practice and qualify on their assigned weapons. This training helps them to maintain proficiency or improve in their individual skills. Consider an exercise that links this specific training to other training. The soldiers are completing a special obstacle course in which they run, climb rope ladders, swing over water obstacles, etc. Sometime during the course, they shoot at targets and then dismantle weapons under timed conditions and must achieve a certain score on their target hits. There is linkage to firing weapons accurately to the overall stress-inducing obstacle course.
Integrating the weapons training might look like the following: Soldiers, equipped with laser-emitting weapons, and wearing special sensors on their helmets and vests, commence to move in tactical formations proceeding through wooded (or desert, jungle, etc.) environments. Another group of soldiers, also equipped with special weapons and sensors, plays the opposing force. The two groups engage in realistic combat operations requiring accurate weapons fire, plus evasive movement, simulated first aid, evacuation of casualties, and other assorted requirements. In this case, firing a weapon potentially has an offensive and defensive role, yet is one part of a whole scenario. (You might substitute law en.

Abstract What does theory predict about the way government size and structure
adapts to changes in government’s organisational environment (particularly to
uncertainty and complexity)? In this paper, we review the theory and evidence
from the literature about the way government size adjusts to such changes –
particularly to changes in macroeconomic fundamentals like gross national prod-
uct (GDP). We find that the traditional theories from the organisational theory
literature—like the contingency-based view, resource-based view and the rational
choice view – fail to provide global explanations for much of the variation we
see in the world around us. Instead, theorists need to adopt a “mosaic view” of
organisational theory – accepting that different theories may explain the way
public sector size and structure responds to the uncertainty and variability in its
(macroeconomic) organisational environment. We also provide several empirical
hypotheses to test such a mosaic-view.

Introduction
Despite over 40 years of theorizing about public sector organisation, we still know very
little about how government responds to changes in its organisational environment. A
variety of theories predict how government size and structure should respond to the
national macroeconomic environment it regulates (as well as buys and sells labour, capital
and goods in). Contingency theorists argue – though are now in relative disrepute – that
government departments and agencies grow, shrink, divide and/or merge in response to
changes in the macroeconomic environment (Gupta et al. 1994). Resource-based theorists
– and their newer off-spring who write about “competencies” – argue that these govern-
ment departments morph, depending on the resources (budgetary, staffing, know-how and
so forth) they already have available – or can obtain through bureaucratic and/or political
means (Bryson et al. 2007). Rational-choice theorists, and select scholars in public
administration, argue that government organisational structure does (or sho.

citizen v citizen, threshold of proof is lower, PREPONDERANCE OF
EVIDENCE.
B. Jurisdiction - the authority to hear and decide cases.
1. Original Jurisdiction - refers to a court’s authority to hear disputes as a trial
court (Ex. O. J. Simpson’s case was held in a state level trial court). The facts of
the case are established at the trial court level. More than 90 percent of all cases
end at this stage.
2. Appellate Jurisdiction - refers to a court’s ability to review cases already decided
by a trial court.
III. The U.S. Court System: Organization and Jurisdiction
A. Federal District Courts - are trial courts. There are 94, based on population but with at
least one in each state.
1. They are courts of original jurisdiction.
2. Some use juries (either grand jury to decide if there is sufficient evidence to bring
an indictment to an accused person or petit jury that hear evidence and sit in
judgment) and other cases are heard by only a judge.
B. Circuit Court of Appeal - are intermediate appellate courts. There are 12, based on
regions or circuits that hear appeals from the federal district court. A thirteenth court, U.S.
Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, hears cases on patents and government contracts.
Usually, a group of three judges decides their cases.
C. Supreme Court - is the ultimate appellate court. Most cases that it hears have proceeded
through the lower courts first. Today, we have 8 justices and one chief justice - 9 in total.
1. Decisions of the U.S. Supreme Court are binding throughout the nation and
establish legal precedents.
2. Also has original jurisdiction - disputes involving ambassadors, two or more
states, etc.
IV. Judicial Selection - the president’s means of exercising leadership of the judicial branch
is through the nomination of federal judges.
A. Selection of Lower-Court Judges - this involves the federal district courts and the
court of appeals. The president nominates for a lifetime tenure and the Senate must
confirm each nomination by a majority vo.
The federal government has assumed responsibility for educating .docx
The federal government has assumed responsibility for educating children living on federal property since the 1800s by paying those children’s school tuition. The advent of the Korean War led to a significant increase in military housing. Military installations began building schools on federal properties in the southern states in the early 1950s.
There are several reasons why military children began attending schools on military installations rather than the local public schools, also known as Local Education Activities (LEAs). One significant reason is related to desegregation. Desegregation in the U.S. Military occurred prior to desegregation in public education. To support its own desegregation policies and the type of community these policies fostered, the government established desegregated schools for the children of military personnel.
In addition, state law prohibited the expenditure of tax revenues for the education of children living on federal property. The military decided to build its own schools for the children of military personnel rather than paying for these children to attend local public schools.
At present, all stateside U.S. Department of Defense Educational Activity (DoDEA) schools fall under the responsibility of the Department of Defense Title 10 under the direction of the Secretary of Defense. The overseas schools (or, DoDDS) fall under the responsibility of Title 20, Department of Education (DoDEA; School Boards for Department of Defense Domestic Schools Training Materials, 2012).
Throughout the years, there have been many changes and shifts, as well as attempts to reintegrate children into LEAs. From time to time, the cost of supporting the schools is brought into question. In addition, whenever a military installation closes, its associated school, if any, closes too.
Not all military children attend schools on military installations. Many receive quality educations at their LEAs. Regardless if a military child attends a school on a military installation or an LEA, it is important for helping professionals to know the types of education available to military children, to know how to support the needs of these students, and to know the laws that protect and support the social, emotional, and academic success of military children.
For this paper, take into account what you have learned so far about military culture, review the two videos assigned this week, and conduct some additional research to deepen your understanding of the education of military children.
Submit
a 3- to 4-page paper in which you:
Choose one family from the videos and briefly describe their circumstances as if they were an identified client
Explain how the DoDEA school system could be utilized to help the family you chose
Analyze how the scenarios discussed or circumstances may have been different in a civilian school
Explain what social work strategies you would utilize with this family
Explain how military culture played a part .
The Facts Peel Factor is the leading fruit juice provider .docx
The Facts
Peel Factor is the leading fruit juice provider in the country. The company is family owned and has been headed by brothers, Ted and Kiki, since the untimely passing of their father a few years ago. Kiki is the face of the enterprise and acts as the Executive Director of Peel Factor, soaking in all the plaudits for how well the company has performed. Ted is the reliable right-hand man who, until recently, faithfully executes his duties as one of the directors. Unbeknownst to Kiki, Ted has always felt that he can do a better job than his brother in leading the company, if given the chance to do so.
Secretly, Ted has been approached by a talent scout hired by Fresh Inc., who is Peel Factor’s direct competitor. Ted is intrigued by Fresh Inc.’s offer to head their company and is tempted by the potential to achieve recognition for his business sense and administrative ability. He gives his in-principle agreement to Fresh Inc. to accept their offer. Out of brotherly love, he decides to inform Kiki first before signing the employment contract proper.
Unfortunately for Ted, a local news reporter gets wind of the intended appointment and releases the news via the country’s premier social media app. Kiki is enraged by this perceived “betrayal” and goes to talk to Ted, hoping to come to an agreement on the way forward.
However, once he gets to the office, Kiki loses it and castigates Ted, calling him “a wastrel and a disgrace to the family.” Ted tries to ignore Kiki and refuses to speak to him initially. Kiki then goes on to tell Ted that he “is the reason why father passed on early,” because Ted “is such a disappointment.” Kiki also says that Ted is “lousy” and that is why he “failed” at his job, and that the company would do much better without him, even though he has no evidence for this statement.
Unable to hold it together any longer, Ted yells that Kiki has “always been the spoilt favourite family brat” and has only got so far because he is “tied to mummy’s apron strings.” Incensed at the situation, Kiki then proposes to buy back Ted’s shares in the family business for $0.04 per share even though he knows that the market price is $0.20 per share. Ted shouts back that Kiki has always been a “bully” since Ted lost Kiki’s favourite stuffed toy in their youth, even though Ted knows this has nothing to do with the current dispute.
Kiki and Ted then both claim that they will each hear from their respective lawyers about this situation.
Inwardly, Kiki is devastated. He has always wanted the family business to do well and wanted to keep his family together. Before their father passed, Kiki promised to take care of his brother and now the family seems to be torn asunder. Heartbroken, Kiki wishes deeply to keep the promise to his late father. In fact, Kiki actually thought he was grooming Ted to eventually take over from him in the near future. Further, he is extremely concerned about losing his existing clients as well as his staff.

Reflections on the Efficient Market
Hypothesis: 30 Years Later
Burton G. Malkiel∗
Princeton University
Abstract
In recent years financial economists have increasingly questioned the efficient market
hypothesis. But surely if market prices were often irrational and if market returns were as
predictable as some critics have claimed, then professionally managed investment funds should
easily be able to outdistance a passive index fund. This paper shows that professional investment
managers, both in The U.S. and abroad, do not outperform their index benchmarks and provides
evidence that by and large market prices do seem to reflect all available information.
Keywords: efficient markets, stock market predictability
JEL Classifications: G12, G14
I have been an advocate of the efficient market hypothesis for over 30 years.
In my view, equity prices adjust to new information without delay and, as a result,
no arbitrage opportunities exist that would allow investors to achieve above-average
returns without accepting above-average risk. This hypothesis is associated with the
view that stock market price movements approximate those of a random walk. If
new information develops randomly, then so will market prices, making the stock
market unpredictable apart from its long-run uptrend. I suggested, largely in jest, that

a blindfolded chimpanzee throwing darts at the stock pages could select a portfolio
that would do as well as the experts.1 In fact, the correct analogy is to throw a towel
over the stock pages and simply buy an index fund, which buys and holds all the
stocks making up a broad stock-market index.
In recent years, many financial economists have come to question the efficient
market hypothesis. At least ex-post, there seem to be several instances where market
prices failed to reflect available information.2 Moreover, periods of large-scale irra-
tionality, such as the technology-internet “bubble” of the late 1990s extending into
early 2000, have convinced many analysts that the efficient market hypothesis should
be rejected.3 In addition, financial econometricians have suggested that stock prices
are, to a significant extent, predictable on the basis either of past returns or of certain
valuation metrics such as dividend yields and price-earning ratios.4
Although it is possible to cast doubt on the statistical robustness of many of the
predictable patterns that have been suggested,5 my skepticism is based on somewhat
different evidence. Surely, if market prices often faile.

Exploiting Artificial Intelligence for Empowering Researchers and Faculty,
International FDP on Fundamentals of Research in Social Sciences

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

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

The Final (Signature Assignment) Complete and submit Case 6 on p.docx
- 1. The Final (Signature Assignment) Complete and submit Case 6 on page 481. Elle Zane-Leading Change at Tufts/NEMC. Below are the five "5" questions I would like for everyone to answer. CASE QUESTIONS 1. Who are the stakeholders that you identified in each sub- story? What do they have at stake? 2. This is a long list of stakeholders who have various needs and interests. What’s significant about this list of stakeholders and their interests? What can we learn from this exercise-case? 3. It is Spring 2011 and the nurses at Tufts Medical Center are threatening to strike. As Zane thinks about and plans to negotiate with MNA, how is this negotiation different from and similar to her negotiation with Blue Cross Blue Shield’s CEO? 4. Is Zane’s power base different when she is negotiating with Blue Cross Blue Shield than when she is negotiating with nurses at TMC? 5. What do you think happened in the nurses’ strike at TMC?
