Simulation Memo

The reason why I chose that you would encourage more minority form firms to apply for these contracts is because any article of the city of Richmond versus Crow sign 1989 it really does state that it's illegal for the cities and states to give preference to minority owned firms but, with the amount of the racial discrimination that's going on you don't want to violate the equal protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment that way minorities get something better than nothing. To impose on the curfew law was because, of minors do not have the same Constitution protection as in the notebook with minors they are underage

However, after reading the article Hazelwood School District vs. Kuhlmeier 1988 I have a little insight on how these can go especially with the Constitutional protection that the adults have over minors. Next is the HIV-positive this is the subject that I want to focus more on it I chose to give education programs for the janitorial staff because, it would help to get a better understanding of HIV and AIDS. It is very important to have information like this around because of the simple fact of how some people can be very ignorant per say to the subject. By thinking just by touching someone who has HIV or Aids they're going to catch it, or that if they look at them or breathe around them that they're going to catch HIV or Aids. HIV and AIDS are two different things HIV is a little bit different because, HIV can be controlled through medication I can but AIDs it can being fatal. Having educational classes, and also information around for employees, to understand the difference between the two and when it comes to having a co-worker who has HIV or Aids. You need to understand how it's important to be supportive instead of looking sideways at the situation of having Aids HIV it’s no joke, you want to make sure that everyone is very
Our team operated and managed the Littlefield Technologies facility over the span of 1268 simulated days. Our team finished the simulation in 3rd place, posting $2,234,639 in cash at the end of the game. We did intuitive analysis initially and came up the strategy at the beginning of the game. And then we applied the knowledge we learned in the class, did process analysis and modified our strategies according to the performance results dynamically. We have reinforced many of the concepts and lessons learned in class and had a better understanding of the operation of the Littlefield Technologies facility and how certain modifications would affect the throughput and lead time.
When working as a health care administrator, one must make important financial decisions that can make or break the future of the organization. To give students a peak into some of these financial decisions, online simulations are used. This is the breakdown of one such simulation.
We were four in our group and we were given a scenario of a patient who was having an anaphylactic reaction from bee sting venom. The group agreed that I will be the primary nurse. As the primary nurse, I knew that I had to lead and supervised our group in responding to the emergency situation at hand. Having played the role of a primary nurse in this simulation, I have gained meaningful experience, which I can use in my future nursing practice.
* Record goals, objectives, and decisions during each period to facilitate the creation of the final presentation. An example of a goal is “implement a new forecasting technique in month 5 to improve accuracy.” An example of an objective is “increase forecasting accuracy for months 5, 6, 7 to 84% on average.” An example of a decision is “implemented 3 month weighted forecasting technique in month 5.”
HIV/AIDS education and counseling’ condom distribution to prevent sexual transmission of HIV and other sexually transmitted diseases; referrals to substance abuse treatment and other medical and social services distribution of alcohol swabs to help prevent abscesses and other bacterial infections; on-site HIV testing and counseling and crisis intervention; screening for tuberculosis, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, and other
Croson, Croson believed the affirmative action policy set by the City of Richmond was unconstitutional and is a misguided answer to a problem that doesn’t exist. The City of Richmond enacted a policy that requires the City to award at least 30 percent of their construction contracts to minority-owned businesses. The City of Richmond’s plan to encourage minority enterprises in the public sector was “not narrowly tailored to any goal, except perhaps outright racial balancing.” (City of Richmond v. J.A. Croson Co., 1989) This of course, means that the program did not meet the requirements to pass under strict scrutiny. The policy, lacking a compelling government interest, also “failed to consider race-neutral measures” that would help them achieve their goal. (City of Richmond v. J.A. Croson Co., 1989) Justification for Richmond’s policy was explained as a tool that helps reconcile for past discrimination. There was no evidence that discrimination occurs in the construction industry. The City of Richmond also didn’t have a set of evidence that
Despite the age and immensity of the Universe, we have not been visited nor been contacted by extraterrestrial beings because we are a part of a computer simulation. According to the Simulation Hypothesis, theory provided by Nick Bostrom, humans are unaware of being part of this computer generated simulation. The most compelling piece of evidence that supports this hypothesis is the fact to one can consider a sequence of possible situations which an increasing fraction of all people live in simulations becomes more accurate. (Bostrom 1)
Hospitals are working towards a more team-based training. The last couple years most of my training has been in a simulation lab. I feel it improves communication, teamwork, reinforces skills and new practices. Hands-on simulation experience allows healthcare workers to get messy, make mistakes and sharpen problem-solving skills — with no risk to patients. As nurses, we collaborate with each other on a daily basis but we are trained and tested individually on our skills, theory, and practical situations. As healthcare evolves, stimulation labs should be part of all healthcare works training and testing, that way everyone is better prepared to handle real time events.

Everyday we live our lives dealing with problems society throws at us, but does all of it matter? Are we in a simulation? Are we even real? There are numerous simulation games and these certain games follows rules, much like our world and universe. Being in a simulation is highly probably and there is not only mathematics to show the probability, but also evidence of the simulation glitches within our universe.
Historical simulation is one popular way of estimating VAR. It involves using past data as a guide to what will happen in the future. Suppose that we want to calculate VAR for a portfolio using a 1-day time horizon or 10-day time horizon, a 99% confidence level, and 260 days of data. (The time horizon and confidence level are those typically used for a market risk VAR calculation; 260 is a popular choice for the number of days of data used because, as we shall see, it leads to 259 or 250 scenarios being created.) The first step is to identify the market variables affecting the portfolio. These will typically be interest rates, equity prices, commodity prices, and so on. All prices are measured in the domestic currency. For example, one market variable for an Indian bank is likely to be the Nifty50 measured in Rupees.

Children and adolescents should be acknowledged about HIV/AIDS because during their teenage going into young adults stage, they start to have sexual relations with their close ones and he/she would not know if their partners or if they have the illness of HIV/AIDS(Moore 1). If the state health programs can let most schools have sex educational based classes, it would probably be less percentage of children and teens getting in contact with HIV/AIDS in the United States. It should have sex education based classes because of you think about it it can change minds and help children on how not to catch the virus when they get to the age of having relations with their significant other or partner. Therefore, teens and children should
Brock: These children’s parents are capable of talking to their kids about these topics. If their parents want them to know about Hiv and birth control then they should bring it up to their kids. Schools can’t make that choice for parents what about if
The following executive report is a result of what our change plan achieved throughout the simulation. Our results of this simulation were positive. Although we did not reach the adoption process, we had a number of people in the aware, interested, and appraisal/trial stage ending in a total of 63.5 points.The tactics that we utilized were effective, although with 17.5 weeks left we were not able to get a potential 22 adopters at the rate we were going.
