Curret And Emerging Technology
A disaster can have genuine negative effects for some organizations. Catastrophic events incorporate fierce blazes, surges, quakes, sea tempests and other comparable occasions. Operational calamities happen when organizations lose a critical supervisor or chief, business contracts are broken or business situations turn out to be extremely troublesome for working a business. Vast and private ventures frequently handle the impacts of debacles in an unexpected way. Bigger organizations may deal with debacles better since they have more accessible assets for reestablishing operations.
Regardless of whether it is a seismic tremor in Thailand, surges in China, or typhoons on the East Coast of the U.S., a cataclysmic event can rapidly bring about extreme harm, devastating organizations for quite a long time, weeks and even months. And keeping in mind that the effect is most prominent to organizations in the prompt region, organizations universally need to figure out what influence it will have on their organizations, as well.
A disaster can affect a business as for example the internet of the company goes down then all the live projects come to a stop. No one can use the computer and the product being developed gets delayed. This can lead to huge time delays and business losses until and unless the internet comes back to normal state. This is how a simple internet loss can lead to heavy losses.
The best solution is an internet backup option so that another connection can take over if one connection fails. This is why disaster recovery is very important.

Reflection
Nursing philosophy is a broad term encompassing many different views and ideologies. Every nurse and advanced practice nurse (APN) has a working philosophy that is used when caring and treating for the patient, family or community. As mentioned in the Philosophies & Theories for APN textbook, philosophy is derived from the Greek term philosophia meaning a love of wisdom and a love of critical inquiry (Butts & Rich, 2018). Being an APN, one needs to have an enjoyment of wisdom, continual learning and inquiry due to the ever-changing, healthcare environment.
The last 9 weeks of learning nursing theories of different theorist such as Florence Nightingale, Dorothea Rem and Hildegard Peplau have shaped and defined my own theories on advanced practice nursing. It seems that I do tend to pick bits and pieces from a lot of theorists and disciplines to help combine it to my own values and philosophies when working as a nurse. With models for practice, I do not believe that one really has a use for it in the “real nursing” world. In my years of experience as a nurse, I have never had a co worker, leader or hospital system bring up models for practice.
My philosophy as an advanced practice nurse has become more fine tuned and I am more cognizant of the importance of understanding the nursing theories. As an Family Nurse Practitioner I understand that I would be working with a diverse population and patients of a diverse age range, so being able to apply effective communication skills and cultural competence to all that I come in contact to is important. Often times I do remind myself that in nursing patients may forget about you as a nurse, however they will never forget how you make them feel and ultimately as an Advanced Practice Nurse I would like to promote holistic care that is empowering the patient towards achieving high level wellness.

LASA 1—Picture of Middle Age Development
In M2: Assignment 2, you met Jeff at age 23.
Jeff is now 50 years old. He is still overweight and has developed both high blood pressure and type 2 diabetes. At the same time, Jeff has some accomplishments. He is the CEO of a midsize company that he built from the ground up. However, he works long hours and does not spend as much time with friends or vacationing as he would like. Still, he lives a comfortable life and is married, with two children. He has a daughter in college and another who is a senior in high school.
Use your module readings and the Argosy University online library resources to research the stages of adult development proposed by Erik Erikson and Daniel Levinson. Locate at least two peer-reviewed articles that examine these theories. Write a 4-5 page paper in which you compare and contrast Erikson’s and Levinson’s theories of development during midlife and summarize the findings and conclusions of at least two research studies examining Erikson’s and Levinson’s theories. In your paper, use Erikson’s and Levinson’s theories to
· Describe the physical, social, cognitive, and emotional development of Jeff as he has transitioned from early adulthood into middle adulthood.
· Predict Jeff’s development as he moves through middle adulthood and into late adulthood.
Be sure to incorporate how issues specific to diversity (e.g., socioeconomic status, ethnicity, religion, gender, etc.) have affected his transition into middle adulthood. For example, consider how Jeff’s transition into middle adulthood would differ if he were Caucasian, African-American, Asian-American, or Native-American. Similarly, how would his development at midlife differ depending upon whether he lived in New York City, Tucson, or Memphis?
Write a 4–5-page paper in Word format. Your paper should be double-spaced and in 12 point, Times New Roman font with normal one-inch margins, written in APA style, and free of typographical and grammatical errors.

E-Commerce Assignment
- Pick a business or company that is related to your personal preferences or interests, has received recent publicity, has demonstrated innovativeness regarding their business model, or has otherwise stood out for some reason.
Please note:
Do not choose any of the following: Amazon, eBay, YouTube, Baidu, Yahoo, Wikipedia, Taobao, Walmart, LinkedIn, Instagram,Alibaba/AliExpress, any social media site, Google, PayPal, any airline, and Starbucks.
The reason for this is that these EC websites are very complex and not easily manageable for the detailed analysis we are looking for.

Identify the EC business models that the e-commerce business is applying and comment on the strength and appropriateness of the model for what the firm is doing.
Look for details, including but not limited to, Vision/Mission, Industry Information, Business Strategies, and Financial Performance (where available), Industry Developments, and Future Outlook.
Do NOT engage in any primary research such as talking to people, doing interviews, and conducting surveys. These are all methods - of primary data collection, and all primary research at universities needs clearance from the university’s ethics committee. Therefore, only secondary research is allowed for this project. Please only collect and use data that was previously collected by somebody else, for statistical purposes, published research articles etc.
Research multiple sources online and/or offline, and cite all sources to avoid plagiarism. - Write a report of your analysis of the e-commerce business.
