“The 1960s: A Decade of Promise and Heartbreak”
By Kenneth T. Walsh
March 9, 2010
US News
It was a decade of extremes, of
transformational
change and
bizarre
contrasts: flower children and
assassins
,
idealism
and
alienation
, rebellion and
backlash
. For many in the
massive
post-World War II baby boom generation, it was both the best of times and the worst of times. (7 words)
There will be many 50-year anniversaries to mark significant events of the 1960s, and a big reason is that what happened in that remarkable era still
resonates
today. At the dawn of that decade of contrasts a half century ago—on Jan. 2 ,1960—a
charismatic
young senator from Massachusetts named John F. Kennedy announced that he was running for president, and he won the nation's highest office the following November. He remains one of the
iconic
figures in U.S. history. On February 1, four determined black men sat at a whites-only lunch counter at a Woolworth's in Greensboro, N.C., and were denied service. Their act of
defiance
triggered a wave of sit-ins for civil rights across the South and brought
unrelenting
national attention to America's original sin of racism. On March 3, Elvis Presley returned to the United States from his Army stint in Germany, resuming his career as a pioneer of rock-and-roll and an icon of the youth culture celebrating freedom and a growing sense of rebellion.(5 words)
By the end of the decade, Kennedy had been
assassinated
, along with his brother Robert and the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. America's cities had become powder kegs as African-Americans, despite historic gains toward legal equality, became more impatient than ever at being second-class citizens. Women began demanding their rights in
unprecedented
numbers. Young people and their parents felt a widening generation gap as seen in their differing perceptions of
patriotism
, drug use, sexuality, and the work ethic. The now familiar culture wars between liberals and conservatives caused angry divisions over law and order, busing, racial preferences, abortion, the Vie.

And knowing this, now you have to take this knowledge and apply to marketing and answer the questions whether it's difficult to adopt to foreign culture if it's difficult for people it's probably will be very difficult to also introduce those products and adopt those products to foreign culture.

Research Activity
Sustainable supply chain can be viewed as Management of raw materials and services from suppliers to manufacturers/ service provider to customer - with improvement of the social and environmental impacts explicitly considered.
Carry out a literature review on sustainable / green supply chain and prepare:
·
A report (provide an example) -2500-3000 words approximately and
Issues/topics that
you may like
to address/consider are:
1.
Drivers for Sustainable SCM
2.
Analysing the impact of carbon emissions on manufacturing operation, cost and profit by focusing on product life cycle analysis.
Analyse aspects of the product life cycle in terms of; Outlining CO2 emission points and scope, defining CO2 baseline, prioritising measures to reduce or off set emissions and finally planning and initiating actions.
3.
New ways of thinking/information sharing
Seven key solution areas were identified:
·
In- store logistics: includes in-store visibility, shelf-ready products, shopper interaction
·
Collaborative physical logistics: shared transport, shared warehouse, shared infrastructure
·
Reverse logistics: product recycling, packaging recycling, returnable assets
·
Demand fluctuation management: joint planning, execution and monitoring
·
Identification and labelling: through the use of barcodes and RFID tags. Identification is about providing all partners in the value chain with the ability to use the same standardised mechanism to uniquely identify parties/locations, items and events with clear rules about where, how, when and by whom these will be created, used and maintained. Labels currently are the most widely used means to communicate about relevant sustainability and security aspects of a certain product towards consumers
·
Efficient assets: alternative forms of energy, efficient/aerodynamic vehicles, switching modes, green buildings
·
Joint scorecard and business plan: this solution consists of a suite of industry-relevant measurement tools falling into two broad categories: qualitative tools, which are a set of capability metrics designed to measure the extent to which the trading partners (supplier, service provider and retailer) are working collaboratively; and quantitative tools, which include business metrics aimed at measuring the impact of collaboration
4.
Sustainability in the carbon economy
5.
Introducing/developing sustainable KPI
s
to SC, SCOR,GSCF Models
Wal-Mart
may be a good example to look at: when you burn less, you pay less and emit less, and the benefits can ripple further. The big advantages for organisations in becoming sustainable are reducing costs and helping the environment. For example: Wal-Mart sells 25% of detergent sold in the United States, by replacing regular washing detergent with concentrate they will save: 400 million gallons of water, 125 million pounds of cardboard and packaging, 95 million pounds of plastic.

Introduction (Slide 1 of 2)
• Managerial decisions are often based on the relationship between two or
more variables:
• Example: After considering the relationship between advertising
expenditures and sales, a marketing manager might attempt to predict sales
for a given level of advertising expenditures.
• Sometimes a manager will rely on intuition to judge how two variables
are related.
• If data can be obtained, a statistical procedure called regression analysis
can be used to develop an equation showing how the variables are
related.

Introduction (Slide 2 of 2)
• Dependent variable or response: Variable being predicted.
• Independent variables or predictor variables: Variables being used
to predict the value of the dependent variable.
• Simple linear regression: A regression analysis for which any one
unit change in the independent variable, x, is assumed to result in
the same change in the dependent variable, y.
• Multiple linear regression: A regression analysis involving two or
more independent variables.

Pressure Ulcer Management
Background Patients in intensive care units are likely to
have limited mobility owing to hemodynamic instability
and activity orders for bed rest. Bed rest is indicated
because of the severity of the disease process, which
often involves intubation, sedation, paralysis, surgical
procedures, poor nutrition, low flow states, and poor cir-
culation. These patients are predisposed to the develop-
ment and/or the progression of pressure ulcers not only
because of their underlying diseases, but also because
of limited mobility and deconditioned states of health.
Objective To assess whether treating high-risk patients
with a prophylactic sacral dressing decreases the inci-
dence of unit-acquired sacral pressure ulcers.
Methods An evidence-based tool for identifying patients
at high risk for pressure ulcers was used in 3 intensive
care units at an urban tertiary care hospital and academic
medical center. Those patients deemed at high risk had
a prophylactic sacral dressing applied. Incidence rates
were collected and compared for the 7 months preced-
ing use of the dressings and for 7 months during the
trial period when the dressing was used.
Results After the sacral dressing began being used, the
number of unit-acquired sacral pressure ulcers decreased
by 3.4 to 7.6 per 1000 patient days depending on the unit.
Conclusions A prophylactic sacral dressing may help
prevent unit-acquired sacral pressure ulcers. Implemen-
tation of an involved care team with heightened aware-
ness and increased education along with a prophylactic
sacral dressing in patients deemed high risk for skin
breakdown are all essential for success. (American Jour-
nal of Critical Care. 2016;25:228-234)

P
atients in intensive care units (ICUs) are predisposed to pressure ulcers because of
limited mobility and the severity of their disease processes. Pressure ulcers result
from pressure or a combination of pressure and shear, usually over bony promi-
nences, and cause localized injury to the skin and underlying tissues.1 The prevalence
of pressure ulcers in acute care settings is estimated at 12% to 19.7%, of which 20%
occur on the sacrum or coccyx.2 In ICUs, pressure ulcers rates can occur in 14% to 42% of
patients.3 For patients, pressure ulcers can be painful, embarrassing, isolating, and, in some
cases, life-threatening.4
The standard of care to prevent pressure ulcers
includes routine repositioning to offload pressure

Your goal this module is to identify how culture is transmitted. For.docx
Your goal this module is to identify how culture is transmitted. For this, you will first investigate your family history to see how culture is transmitted at the micro-level. Next, you will apply your findings to strategies you can use to transmit your company's culture to a new employee from abroad. The entire paper should be 4 pages.
Start by interviewing your family members, especially older relatives. Find out what aspects of culture (important celebrations, music, food, languages spoken, etc.) were passed on from the older generations to you. Where do these aspects of culture originate? Is what you learned similar or different from the original culture?
Then, using what you have learned by investigating your own family, suggest ways in which you can transmit your corporation's culture effectively to a new employee from the United Arab Emirates. Back up your suggestions with evidence from at least two sources.
The discussion of your family history should be about two pages, and the discussion of how you can transmit your company's culture to the new employee should be an additional two pages. The complete paper should be four pages and should use correct APA formatting

may be a good example to look at: when you burn less, you pay less and emit less, and the benefits can ripple further. The big advantages for organisations in becoming sustainable are reducing costs and helping the environment. For example: Wal-Mart sells 25% of detergent sold in the United States, by replacing regular washing detergent with concentrate they will save: 400 million gallons of water, 125 million pounds of cardboard and packaging, 95 million pounds of plastic.

Introduction (Slide 1 of 2)
• Managerial decisions are often based on the relationship between two or
more variables:
• Example: After considering the relationship between advertising
expenditures and sales, a marketing manager might attempt to predict sales
for a given level of advertising expenditures.
• Sometimes a manager will rely on intuition to judge how two variables
are related.
• If data can be obtained, a statistical procedure called regression analysis
can be used to develop an equation showing how the variables are
related.

Introduction (Slide 2 of 2)
• Dependent variable or response: Variable being predicted.
• Independent variables or predictor variables: Variables being used
to predict the value of the dependent variable.
• Simple linear regression: A regression analysis for which any one
unit change in the independent variable, x, is assumed to result in
the same change in the dependent variable, y.
• Multiple linear regression: A regression analysis involving two or
more independent variables.

Pressure Ulcer Management
Background Patients in intensive care units are likely to
have limited mobility owing to hemodynamic instability
and activity orders for bed rest. Bed rest is indicated
because of the severity of the disease process, which
often involves intubation, sedation, paralysis, surgical
procedures, poor nutrition, low flow states, and poor cir-
culation. These patients are predisposed to the develop-
ment and/or the progression of pressure ulcers not only
because of their underlying diseases, but also because
of limited mobility and deconditioned states of health.
Objective To assess whether treating high-risk patients
with a prophylactic sacral dressing decreases the inci-
dence of unit-acquired sacral pressure ulcers.
Methods An evidence-based tool for identifying patients
at high risk for pressure ulcers was used in 3 intensive
care units at an urban tertiary care hospital and academic
medical center. Those patients deemed at high risk had
a prophylactic sacral dressing applied. Incidence rates
were collected and compared for the 7 months preced-
ing use of the dressings and for 7 months during the
trial period when the dressing was used.
Results After the sacral dressing began being used, the
number of unit-acquired sacral pressure ulcers decreased
by 3.4 to 7.6 per 1000 patient days depending on the unit.
Conclusions A prophylactic sacral dressing may help
prevent unit-acquired sacral pressure ulcers. Implemen-
tation of an involved care team with heightened aware-
ness and increased education along with a prophylactic
sacral dressing in patients deemed high risk for skin
breakdown are all essential for success. (American Jour-
nal of Critical Care. 2016;25:228-234)

P
atients in intensive care units (ICUs) are predisposed to pressure ulcers because of
limited mobility and the severity of their disease processes. Pressure ulcers result
from pressure or a combination of pressure and shear, usually over bony promi-
nences, and cause localized injury to the skin and underlying tissues.1 The prevalence
of pressure ulcers in acute care settings is estimated at 12% to 19.7%, of which 20%
occur on the sacrum or coccyx.2 In ICUs, pressure ulcers rates can occur in 14% to 42% of
patients.3 For patients, pressure ulcers can be painful, embarrassing, isolating, and, in some
cases, life-threatening.4
The standard of care to prevent pressure ulcers
includes routine repositioning to offload pressure
points, .

Your goal this module is to identify how culture is transmitted. For.docx
Your goal this module is to identify how culture is transmitted. For this, you will first investigate your family history to see how culture is transmitted at the micro-level. Next, you will apply your findings to strategies you can use to transmit your company's culture to a new employee from abroad. The entire paper should be 4 pages.
Start by interviewing your family members, especially older relatives. Find out what aspects of culture (important celebrations, music, food, languages spoken, etc.) were passed on from the older generations to you. Where do these aspects of culture originate? Is what you learned similar or different from the original culture?
Then, using what you have learned by investigating your own family, suggest ways in which you can transmit your corporation's culture effectively to a new employee from the United Arab Emirates. Back up your suggestions with evidence from at least two sources.
The discussion of your family history should be about two pages, and the discussion of how you can transmit your company's culture to the new employee should be an additional two pages. The complete paper should be four pages and should use correct APA formatting

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...
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.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdf
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
