The anti-Muslim hate crimes have affected the lives of these people of color in significant ways. In this article I seek to recover part of the post-September 11 experiences of American Muslims that were obfuscated by the dominant anti-Muslim master narrative, which conflated the Islamic faith with terrorism and constructed all Muslims as dangerous anti-American outsiders. I explore a way of telling stories about these experiences using the expressive power of geos.

This article states that people of color have a high death rate in the state of Texas. The high death rate could be due to lower income, the lack of access to health care, and preexisting conditions. Many people of color work in jobs that are more exposed to the virus and few work from home which is considered safer during the pandemic. Much of the deaths are tied to poverty and high populated areas. Hidalgo county, near the border of Mexico, was hit the hardest by the coronavirus. Delays in insurance and death certificates were the cause for the count being very high early on but they have since recalculated the number to 312 deaths due to the virus. The gulf of Texas was also hit hard with COVID-19. Hindsight being 20/20, we should have been tracking how to recover from the virus rather than focusing on the death toll so much. “In 2016 an estimated 15 percent of Texans were uninsured, the highest percentage of any state and much higher than the 10 percent figure for the U.S. population as a whole” (Champagne 426). Our united states government has discussed ways to make health care available to all citizens. There are contrasted opinions amongst politicians and citizens on how it should be provided and to what extent. Another question that weighs on our government is: Should health care be a mandatory investment on each person? If the insurance is not affordable to a citizen due to poverty, then someone must pay for it in this scenario. During covid 19, I am sure that the government’s concern for lack of health insurance amongst the poor amplified across Texas. The situation in the article is logically consistent with our textbook. The government has had a concern with the lack of insurance and in the article, people died because of the lack of health care amongst the poorer U.S. citizens. “Rural communities may be more vulnerable to disease outbreaks as they often exhibit high poverty rates and older populations with increased prevalence of comorbidities” (Holder, Katherine et al.) Comorbidities is the presence of two or more underlying conditions in one person. Holder states that increased inflammation from covid 19 also exasperates the underlying conditions which can cause death quickly in the patient. The author in this article is consistent with the first article and addresses the people that suffered with covid and due to their previous health concerns. I helplessly watched my husband suffer through the virus along with Pneumonia in January. He does not have underlying health conditions that we are aware of and yet this virus was very scary. I scoured the internet on natural ways to add to the routine of the medications that the medical doctors provided to him. A lot of Mexican tea that consisted of garlic, rosemary, eucalyptus, and lemon was added to the routine along with me having my husband do as much walking as possible. More than anything, we prayed for God’s help. About 5 day.

This article deals basically with the dynamic environment of today's businesses. Despite all of the efforts a company puts forth to scan the environmental issues, crises can occur and have to be managed. The article first reviews several crises in businesses during the recent times, to define and identify the nature of a crisis. Then the anatomy of a crisis is presented schematically. Finally, by recommending certain preventive measures and interventions, the article concludes that acknowledging a crisis and communicating with the stakeholders are as important as planning the prevention, diagnosis, and intervention to solve crisis situations. Full Text Toby J. Kash: Pittsburg State University, Pittsburg, Kansas, USA John R. Darling: Pittsburg State University, Pittsburg, Kansas, USA Introduction Strategic planning as a discipline has been concurrently taught and exercised in the past 40 years. This relatively new concept has been the major thrust in the management of US corporations. The art of strategic planning has helped the planners to forecast and cope with a variety of forces, issues and problems beyond their operating control. Nevertheless, all the non-foreseeable issues cannot be forecasted. Therefore, a certain productive function for the management of these issues and crises seems to be missing in a large number of companies. The strategic planning literature shows an experience curve in such forecasts, i.e. as mistakes are made, we learn from them. That is how contingency planning, scenario analysis and surprise management have evolved. The Johnson and Johnson Tylenol case, and the Union Carbide tragedy in Bhopal, India, are examples recurrently referred to in the strategic management literature. The way these two companies dealt with a crisis issue has provided us with a certain level of knowledge and experience that can be used in similar situations. We have also learned that it is no longer a question of "if" a business will face a crisis; it is, rather, a question of "when," "what type" and "how prepared" the company is to deal with it (Mittroff et. al., 1996). Whether it is a natural disaster, such as an earthquake, tornado or flood, or a man made disaster, such as accidents, wildcat strikes or product tampering, a business will eventually face some form of crisis. The MIR space station, built and placed in operation by the Soviet Union in 1986, had a very limited mission and encountered anticipated mechanical problems, for which the planners had devised solutions. With the infusion of $400 million by the USA to jointly operate the system, MIR faced a situation in June 1997 that was not forecasted. An unmanned cargo ship hit the spacecraft, disabling the MIR solar panels, thus affecting the airconditioning and lighting functions. This was a crisis to deal with. Two measures were found appropriate: a space walk for temporary repairs, and a manned supply shuttle later to perform major repairs. The question is, could t.

The variant discussed here is integrated by a vehicle routing problem and several inventory problems characterized by stochastic demands. Initial stock levels and potential stock-outs are also considered, as well as a set of alternative refill policies for each retail center. The goal is to find the personalized refill policies and associated routing plan that minimize, at each single period, the expected total costs of the system, i.e., the sum of inventory and routing costs. After motivating it, a detailed description of the problem is provided. Then, a review of the related literature is performed and our simulation–optimization approach is introduced. The paper presents a set of numerical experiments comparing the proposed method against different refill strategies and discusses how total costs evolve as the level of system uncertainty and the inventory-holding costs per unit are varied. � 2013 Elsevier B.V.

Introduction One of the most important paradigms in supply chain management is to move from sequential decision making toward integrated decision making, where all parties in the supply chain determine the best policy for the entire system. This is in contrast to sequentially optimized decisions in supply chains.

This assignment has multiple parts. You'll complete a few simple activities, then write a short reflection on what you learned and what insights you gained. 1. Visit the Pew Research Center website and take the 10-question quiz on distinguishing factual and opinion news statements: http://www.pewresearch.org/quiz/news-statements-quiz/ Note your results to include in your reflection paper. 2. Visit at least two reputable news websites of your choice to look for articles on a single news topic of current interest. Choose one news story and one opinion piece on the same selected topic to evaluate. Note that opinion pieces are often labeled as opinion, analysis, or editorial. Copy and paste the exact URL of each piece to include in your reflection paper. If you would like, use the Fake News Checklist pdf included here to help ensure your articles are from a reputable source. 3. Carefully read the two pieces you have chosen. Be aware that reputable news stories sometimes include opinions, such as in a direct quotation from a named source, and opinion pieces sometimes include facts, such as statistics or other information to support the writer's arguments. Note significant statements of fact and of opinion in the two articles you are evaluating. Consider the following questions: Are opinion statements you find in the news article the opinion of the writer or are they quotations properly attributed to a named source? In the opinion piece, how does the writer try to persuade you to agree with his or her argument? For factual statements, what objective evidence does the writer provide to indicate that the factual statement is accurate? 4. Write a short (200-300 word) response paper reflecting on your ability to distinguish fact from opinion in news coverage. Include at least one sentence about your results on the Pew quiz and a few sentences about what you learned by analyzing the news and opinion pieces on the current news topic. Be sure to include complete, correct URLs for the two pieces you analyzed. Proofread your paper to ensure you used correct grammar, spelling, and punctuation. You may copy and paste the response into this assignment or upload a Word document as an attachment. .

DB3- Put yourself in the position of an up-and-coming artist living in early-sixteenth-century Italy. Now imagine trying to distinguish yourself from the other artists living in your town: Michelangelo, Raphael, Leonardo, or Titian. Is it any wonder that the Italian High Renaissance lasted only 30 years? — Jerry Saltz New needs need new techniques. And the modern artists have found new ways and new means of making their statements ... the modern painter cannot express this age, the airplane, the atom bomb, the radio, in the old forms of the Renaissance or of any other past culture. — Jackson Pollock (American abstract-expressionist painter, 1912–1956) Part 1 A renaissance in a culture can be described as a "rebirth" a "new beginning," or "resurgence." In art, some of the periods of art are considered a "renaissance" of new stylistic choices that inspired artists. However, the culture at large can also be affected by a renaissance as architects, writers, musicians and other creative professionals embrace change.

This activity is designed to introduce a convenient unit used by chemists and to illustrate uses of the unit. Part I: What Is a Mole And Why Are Chemists Interested in It? Counting things is a normal part of everyday life. How many days left until vacation? How many eggs do I need for the recipe? If large numbers of things are involved, we use grouping strategies to make the numbers easier to manage. For example, 4 more weeks until vacation, tells us that there are twenty-eight days. One dozen eggs is the common way of expressing the quantity 12. Half of a dozen of anything would be 6 units. One gross is 144 items (12 dozen) and a ream of paper contain 500 sheets. Chemist are faced with a unique problem when dealing with numbers of atoms or molecules. The particles are so small that any amount of them that we are able to physically handle contains a number of particles so large that there is nothing else in our experience that contains so many units. This incredibly large number calls for a special counting group - the MOLE. A MOLE is 6.022 x 1023 particles . This is often referred to as Avogadro=s number . Let=s make sure we understand how big this is. One mole of the element carbon has a mass of 12.01 grams. The smallest particle of an element is an atom. So one mole of carbon contains 602,200,000,000,000,000,000,000 atoms of carbon. Look for the element carbon on the periodic table. Do you notice anything special about the value 12.01? Explain The mass of one mole of the element magnesium is 24.30 grams. How many atoms does a sample of magnesium with a mass of 24.30 grams contain? Stated in general terms, the mass of one mole of any element is equal to the of that element expressed in grams. The mass of a mole of any element can be found by looking on . The mass of 0.5000 moles of carbon is and contains atoms of carbon. Remember when dividing numbers written in scientific notation the number portion is divided normally and the exponents are subtracted. 6.022x1023 divided by 2 is the same as 6.022 x1023/2 x 100. So the answer is found by dividing 6.022 by 2 = 3.011 and the subtracting exponent 0 from exponent 23. The answer in scientific notation is 3.011x1023 atoms of carbon. Calculator tip : for exponential notation use the EE or EXP key (not 10^) If you have a bottle containing 8.10 grams of magnesium, how many Mg atoms are present in the bottle? Show your work. What is different about this problem compared to the last one involving carbon? Remember that some elements, when alone, exist in the form of diatomic molecules: H2, O2, N2, I2, F2, Cl2, Br2, Their smallest piece is a molecule containing two atoms. If one mole of oxygen were required for an experiment you would be using O2 the gas. One mole of O2 would have a mass of and contain particles (molecules). The characteristic unit of the compound CO2 is a molecule. Each CO2 molecule has atoms. In order to find the mass .
