mediation. Shifting the focus of the parties from a need to “win” to reaching a place of mutually beneficial understanding is the primary objective. Successful conflict management is a fundamental part of managing human relationships in the workplace (Porter-O’Grady & Malloch, 2011.) Today’s leaders must continuously strive to avoid unnecessary conflict while understanding and embracing the differences unique to each of their employees. Using unavoidable conflicts as springboards towards positive change by nurturing and facilitating open and honest communication is critical. Understanding that it is the unique contributions of the individuals that oftentimes create opportunities for conflict (Tojo & Dilpreet, 2007) healthcare leaders can responsibly supervise in today’s truly diverse and dynamic work environment. What instigates conflict more rapidly perhaps than anything else is the never ending prospect and reality of change in today’s healthcare environment? It is a well-known phenomenon that most people simply do not like change. Yet, the one thing that leaders can be assured of as the normative experience is that change is inevitable. As noted by our authors “all of the planning in the world and all of the anticipation that accompanies it cannot change the fact that contingencies are a fundamental part of the human experience” (Porter-O’Grady & Mallock, 2011.) Once we have openly accepted the fact that not all change can be anticipated, it is then that we are better able to place more attention on developing adaptation and coping techniques to deal with the consequent crisis that will arise. Crisis can come in many forms, ranging from natural disasters to war. Humans have formed complex organizational systems and, the more complex the system, the more likely the onset of a crisis (Porter-O’Grady & Malloch, 2011.) It is absolutely vital that health care leaders are prepared to confront the unexpected on a daily basis. The best approach is the development of systematic and integrated plans at the

Quarterly activities report for January – March 2018 The quarterly activities include details of monitoring and compliance activities by the Office of the Gene Technology Regulator (OGTR) during the quarter. Monitoring of GMO Dealings involving Intentional Release (DIR) During the quarter the OGTR inspected eight GM plant field trial sites (Table 1). The inspections comprised: Current field trial sites – Of the 38 sites current in the quarter, three were inspected. As these three sites in Deniliquin had never been visited before by OGTR they were selected for routine announced inspections to assess compliance with licence conditions. Post-harvest field trial sites – Of the 63 sites subject to post-harvest monitoring in the quarter, five were inspected. The sites in Horsham and Ararat were selected for routine announced inspections due to the fact that they had not been previously inspected. The one site in Indigo was selected due to its proximity to sites already selected for inspection and had also not been visited before by the OGTR.

The inspections comprised: Current field trial sites – Of the 37 sites current in the quarter, 3 were inspected. As these three sites had never been visited before by OGTR they were selected for a routine, announced inspection to assess compliance with licence conditions. Post-harvest field trial sites – Of the 59 sites subject to post-harvest monitoring in the quarter, 4 were inspected. The two Victorian sites were selected for inspection to assist OGTR in assessing the licence holders request for sign-off from monitoring obligations.

These inspections were all routine and announced. Authorisations were selected based on a range of considerations including time since they were last inspected, relevant compliance history and the specific risks associated with the authorisations.

Electricity We are responsible for monitoring, investigating and enforcing compliance the Electricity Law and Rules. This part of the report provides an update on investigations, compliance matters and projects in the electricity market. Rebidding Scheduled generators and market participants operating in the National Electricity Market (NEM) submit offers and bids for each half hour trading interval. The offers and bids include available capacity for up to 10 price bands and can be varied through rebidding. According to the ‘three stage process’ introduced in late 2010 and updated in 2012, we will consider issuing an infringement notice if we issue three notifications within a six month period to generators who submit offer, bid and/or rebid information that does not meet the requirements of the Electricity Rules. The warning count for a participant is set to zero after six months of the first warning being issued. Frequent submission of offers, bids and rebids do not meet the relevant requirements of the Electricity Rules can seriously and adversely impact the NEM. In particular, the quality of information available to relevant participants and other persons is reduced, which in turn reduces market efficiency. Poor quality information also affects the AER's ability to monitor and enforce compliance with the Electricity Rules. As shown below in Figure 7, the number of rebids automatically triggered as requiring initial examination (indicated by the blue area) has fallen markedly since 2011. Figure 7: Rebids auto-triggered and reviewed per week (adjusted) This quarter we received seven self-reporting notices from participants regarding errors in their rebids. We decided not to take action on these errors. As such, no warnings were issued and no participants had their warning count reset to zero during the quarter. Market time A recent review of information provided by some participants revealed inconsistencies in the recording of time. In light of this, we are taking the opportunity to remind participants of the importance of using Market Time (Eastern Standard Time). It is particularly important for those participants with generators located in different regions of the NEM (and therefore different time zones) to be aware of this requirement. Specifically, we expect participants to use Market Time when referring to time in reasons for submitting rebids. This includes, (but is not limited to) for example, the time of an AEMO demand forecast, or the time that an event occurred or an observation was made leading up to the rebid. The same logic also applies to times included in log entries, contemporaneous
Gas We are responsible for monitoring, investigating and enforcing compliance with the Gas Law and Rules, including but not limited to, the Short Term Trading Market (STTM), the Victorian gas market and the Bulletin Board. This part of the report provides an update on investigations, compliance matters and projects in the gas markets. Short Term Trading Market Part 20 of the Gas Rules sets out participants’ responsibilities within the STTM, which encompasses three gas trading hubs: Adelaide, Sydney and Brisbane. The rules outline how wholesale gas is traded and include requirements for pipeline operators to submit pipeline capacity and allocation (gas flow) data. Capacity and allocation data quality During this quarter we continued to monitor the quality of STTM data. Figure 1.1 below illustrates the performance of STTM participants in submitting capacity and allocation data from the start of the STTM to June 2013. Data failures are categorised as relating to either ‘missing/late’ or ‘erroneous’ data. Data failures since STTM commencement * September 2010 has been grouped with the December 2010 quarter. Therefore, this data represents four months. Despite the general improvement in the quality of data provided to the STTM, one event did occur in April as a result of human error by AGL with respect to its Camden facility (see section 1.2). A failure to provide accurate and timely data can lead to inefficient pricing signals and market outcomes, resulting in inappropriate wealth transfers between participants. It may also undermine the integrity and reliability of the STTM, discouraging potential entrants or even causing participants to exit the market. AGL capacity error for Camden AGL submitted incorrect capacity information to AEMO for its Camden facility for the 1 April 2013 gas day. AGL intended to advise the capacity was 16.2TJ, however it submitted 0.9TJ. AGL explained that the incorrect submission was due to a combination of human and system errors. AGL considers human error was the main cause since manual checks by staff should have picked up other errors. AGL had previously implemented a practice of manually reviewing and verifying capacity data prior to submitting it to AEMO, however, this process was not followed for the 1 April 2013 gas day. Following this incident the Manager of Gas Operations reinforced this requirement with the trading team and the need to consult the daily checklist of tasks to manage the risk of human error.

Topic: The Rights and Responsibilities of Citizens Students evaluate the scope and limits of rights and obligations as democratic citizens, the relationships among them, and how they are secured. (1.5 weeks) Chapter 3 Weeks: 11-12 GC.35 Analyze the meaning and importance of each of the rights guaranteed under the Bill of Rights and how each is secured (e.g., freedom of religion, speech, assembly, petition, and privacy). GC. 36 Explain how economic rights are secured and their importance to the individual and to society, including the right to acquire, use, transfer, and dispose of property; right to choose one’s work; the purpose of labor unions; copyrights and patents. GC.37 Describe the individual’s legal obligations to obey the law, serve as a juror, and pay taxes. What rights does the U.S. Constitution guarantee to citizens? What limits on government exist to secure the rights of citizens? How do the three branches of government each protect the rights of citizens? What are the obligations and responsibilities of a citizen? How have the responsibilities of citizenship changed in the modern era? How is the balance between meeting obligations and respecting the rights of others achieved in American society? What is the citizenship process in the United States? SUGGESTED ACTIVITIES 1. Students will view Future Fright: Losing the Bill of Rights and complete the viewing guide graphic organizer. 2. iCivics – “Do I Have A Right?” game 3. Students will rate which rights are most important to them from the Bill of Rights. 4. Students will a mnemonic about the Bill of Rights. 5. Students will examine the responsibilities of a citizen from the U.S. Citizenship Test for Naturalization. Citizenship 101: P19, 84, 141, 169, 227, 272, 389, 472, 568, 631, 731 Complete Chapter 3 assessments, and the Document based Assessment RESOURCES Constitution: PC1-C23
When you hit a baseball with a bat, the force of the bat on the ball only lasts for a moment. What would happen to the motion of the ball if the bat were to apply a constant force to the ball the entire time the ball is moving? It would continually positively accelerate. (remember the carts and rulers outside? Forces cause accelerations.) Why is it beneficial to run with a ball prior to throwing it in order to increase its range? The velocity of the runner will be combined with the velocity of the ball, and it will go faster. As the result of a serve, a tennis ball (mb=58 g) accelerates at 430 m/s2 for the very brief time it is in contact with the racket. How much force was required to cause this acceleration? M=58 g F=ma F=58 (430) a=430 m/s2 F=24,940 N F=? What affects momentum? How much momentum does a 68 kg person running at 5 m/s have? Mass and velocity. P=MV P=68 kg (5 m/s) P=340 kgm/s What is Newton's first law of motion? Objects in motion stay in motion, and objects at rest stay at rest unless acted on by an unbalanced force. Explain why people who get rear get whip lash using Newton's first law. The people in the car are at rest. When they get hit, their car suddenly accelerates forward. If their headrest isn’t adjusted properly, the seat will push the torso forward and the head will be left behind (at rest), causing whip lash. What is Newton's second law?
