All countries have population subgroups that are more vulnerable to health threats than the general population. What are some reasons that vulnerable populations are more sensitive to risk factors than those who are more resilient?  Describe what is meant by vulnerable populations and explain strategies you, as the public health nurse, could use to best facilitate the achievement of healthful outcomes in this population?

Identify an article in the lay literature (e.g., newspaper, news feed) that describes a study in which a “cause” or “effect” was identified.

Module 5 – Association and Causation: Fitting Language to Evidence
Assignment #2: “Science or Journalism?”
Overview:
This assignment provides an opportunity for students to develop their understanding of the statistical concepts of association and causation. The only study design that can demonstrate cause and effect is a randomized control trial, where outcomes are compared with and without an assigned exposure/intervention. To determine causation, a statistical test of differences is used to demonstrate whether there is a significant effect of the exposure/intervention on a particular outcome.
Observational studies (where there is not randomization to an exposure/intervention) cannot demonstrate cause and effect. Unfortunately, “causal language” is often used by reporters who try to explain associations (e.g., correlations) that are found in observational studies. Distortions in the wording that explains statistical analyses by reporters can lead readers to misunderstandings about study results. For example, “An association was found between vaping and cancer” is different in meaning from, “Vaping causes cancer.”
Assignment Instructions:
1) Identify an article in the lay literature (e.g., newspaper, news feed) that describes a study in which a “cause” or “effect” was identified. Choose something that has been published within the past year. Make an electronic copy of the article.
2) After finding your article, consider if the original research study was a randomized control trial (where “cause” can be determined) or some other study design (in which an “association” may be identified…but not cause).
3) Compose a two-page analysis of the concordance between the likely research study and its descriiption in the lay literature.
i. Provide examples of how you would improve the language of the article if you believe that there WASN’T “cause” established in the original study.
ii. Provide a brief descriiption of how the researchers may have conducted the randomized control trial if you believe that there WAS “cause” established in the original study.
4) In developing your analysis paper, please use the following APA standard format elements:
i. Double-space;
ii. 1-inch margins;
iii. Times New Roman 12 font;
iv. APA style title page with an appropriate title (e.g., reflecting the name of the assignment);
v. Running head (shortened title up to 50 characters);
vi. Pagination per APA guidelines;
vii. APA style heading system to organize your paper, as applicable.
5) Submit your analysis and the article to the Blackboard link by the due date in a single file that includes three documents:
i. APA-style student title page
ii. Two-page analysis
iii. Reference Page
iv. Article
6) Your final collated paper should be a single file in PDF form. There are several ways to get the three different documents into a combined file (e.g., scanning, Adobe Acrobat Pro). Please be sure to give yourself adequate time to consider this important collating step in the assignment process.

Project #1: Incident Response Report

Your Task

You have been assigned to assist with After Action Reporting in support of the Sifers-Grayson Blue Team. Your immediate task is to assist in analyzing and reporting on a Red Team penetration test described later in this document. As part of that report, you will identify weaknesses and vulnerabilities exploited by the attackers (the Red Team), compile a set of lessons learned, and then make recommendations for actions the company should take to close the gaps in their cybersecurity posture (at a minimum, you must address the identified vulnerabilities and weaknesses that were exploited by the Red Team). The Blue Team has provided you with a set of enterprise architecture diagrams (see figures 1-4 in this file) to help with your analysis of the incident and preparation of the summary report. You should also use the readings from Weeks 1-4 to help you identify security gaps and incident response capabilities which the company needs to implement.

Hi, need to submit a 2500 words essay on the topic Genesis of a Painting: Picasso’s Guernica.

Developing unevenly, experiencing the ups and downs, escaping from the prophesied death avant-garde is hard to understand, in many ways, precisely because it is programmed to misunderstanding. However, this does not prevent it from functioning in society, because of a lack of understanding of what a person pushes on the reflection on this, the search for truth, therefore understanding of the world.

In his paintings, artists drew the attention to the real facts of life relating generally to political acts. It is this trend in the works of many artists of that time, among which Pablo Picasso occupies a special place.

The democratic sentiments or beliefs of artists, a sense of drama of social life, its historical movement are embodied in art. The concept of life and opinions about the reaction to the specific facts of the master is expressed in the picture, but indirectly, embodied in works of art topic, containing a conceivable, created, aesthetically created the world of imagery. The works by Picasso open the image of the suffering human.

One of the works that have become a reaction to what was happening is a monumental panel by Picasso “Guernica”. It is one of the most expressive works of the artist in the era of the interwar decades, where the author tries to create the concept of understanding the modern world and a terrible show of their understanding of being. So, what historical events have led the author to create this work?

Write a 3 page essay on In this writing assignment you must discuss and compare the existing GAAP standards with the comparable IFRS standard for either IFRS IAS 17: Leases or IAS 18: Revenue. (By the way, these links go to the actual discussion of what makes up these categorie.

Notably, the US GAAP has a detailed and a more industry-centered guidance than IFSR (Bowden, 2010). Their conceptual frameworks and principles are however, similar.

Both accounting packages have the same recognition criteria necessitating capitalized costs as parcel of the cost of an asset if economic benefits in future are possible and measurable (Street, 2012). Moreover, neither model offers specific guidance in considering the unit of account for use in exploitinglong-lived assets. Neither model allows capitalization of startup, overhead and administrative costs. Depreciation of long-lived assets under both models starts with the placement of an asset in service when it is ready for use. IFRS allows reevaluation of assets while GAAP does not.

Under IFRS, derecognition of an asset causes the inclusion of that item in the earnings while under GAAP, no losses or gains are inclusive in the earnings. Under decommission of liabilities, both US GAAP and IFRS necessitate that the costs of dismantling a property and restoring its site constitutes a part of the cost of that particular asset. A notable difference is that in IFRS, alterations to the liability resulting from the passage of time falls in the class of borrowing costs while under US GAAP, changes to liability resulting from time passage is an accretion expense (Bowden, 2010).

Amortization of intangible propertiesover their predicted uselifetime is pertinent in both accounting models. In both GAAPsets, if there is no predictable limit to the time over which an intangible asset can generate cash influxesto the entity, the useful life is indefinite and the asset cannot undergo amortization. Under US GAAP, interest derived from the investment of borrowed finances cannot offset interest incurrencesduring the time. For borrowings related to a qualifying asset,

The 586th Assault Float Bridge (AFB) Company will conduct a five-day FTX in the Anatuvak training area of Camp Yukon. The unit will depart Fort Chilly and convoy 120 miles on limited-access highways. The commander establishes several rest areas and tactical refueling and maintenance points along the route. Reconnaissance team indicated the trip to take approximately 8 hours. Upon arrival at Camp Yukon, the unit will move into the Anatuvak training area and set up a bivouac site, preceded by their quartering party. During the FTX, the company will conduct tactical-bridging operations on the Yukon River. The FTX will involve normal operations (12 to 16 hours a day), with some night and limited visibility operations. The operations will include the use of pyrotechnics and blank munitions. The FTX will not include live fire due to budgetary constraints. The area has hills, wetlands, several winding streams, and one large river. Signs in the area identify and mark all wetlands. The forecasted weather will not adversely affect operations. The Soldiers are somewhat familiar with the terrain, which contains some identified and marked-off archeological sites. The training area contains the habitat for two endangered species, which are marked and posted. The unit will conduct unit-maintenance, refueling, messing, shower, and field-sanitation operations within the bivouac site.Apply Critical Thinking to come up with a solution to the scenario.

You are a consultant for the Diligent Consulting Group (DCG). You have completed the first assignment, developing and testing a forecasting method that uses Linear Regression (LR) techniques (Module 2 Case). However, the consulting manager at DCG wants to try a different forecasting method as well.

Now you decide to try Single Exponential Smoothing (SES) to forecast sales.

Using this Excel template below. then do the following:

Calculate the MAPE for Year 2 Linear Regression forecast (use the first spreadsheet tab labeled “Year 2 Forecast – MAPE”).

Calculate forecasted sales for Year 2 using SES (use the second spreadsheet tab labeled “SES – MAPE”). Use 0.15 and 0.90 alphas.

Compare the MAPE calculated for the LR forecast (#1 above) with the MAPEs calculated using SES.

(2 pages)

write a report to your boss in which you discuss the results obtained above. Using calculated MAPE values,make a recommendation concerning which method appears to be more accurate for the Year 2 data: SES or Linear Regression.

  • Provide a brief introduction to/background of the problem.
  • Complete a written analysis that supports your Excel analysis, discussing the assumptions, rationale, and logic used to complete your SES forecast.
  • Give complete, meaningful, and accurate recommendation(s) relating to whether LR or SES is more accurate in predicting sales.
