Scottish students do not have to pay to go to university or college. This was because they did not have a majority of seats in the SP and so had to rely on the support of MSPs from other parties to win votes in Parliament. They failed for example to pass a law on Alcohol Minimum Pricing in 2010 because opposition MSPs (mostly Labour) voted against it. MORE REPRESENTATIVES AMS is a proportional system which maintains the link constituents have with a constituency MSP whilst also providing constituents with 7 other regional MSPs. More choice for constituents about who to approach with issues. For example, someone living in Carntyne might approach the constituency MSP for Glasgow Provan – Labour MSP Paul Martin – or they might rather speak to one of the 7 regional MSPs for Glasgow, such as Patrick Harvie MSP of the Green Party or Ruth Davidson MSP of the Conservative party. CONFLICT BETWEEN TYPES OF REPRESENTATIVES Because the AMS system in Scotland leads to constituency MSPs and regional MSPs this can create conflict over who is the most important. In August 2003, the then Labour MP Brian Wilson described list MSPs as “a waste of space”. There is an element of rivalry between constituency and List MSPs. Constituency MSPs tend to see themselves as the "real" MSP for the constituency. LESS WASTED VOTES Under the AMS, less votes will be “wasted”. This is because seats are awarded proportionally rather than a “winner takes all” scenario as is the case with FPTP. For example, in the Glasgow region in 2011, 3 Labour, 2 SNP, 1 Conservative and 1 Green MSP were elected. Under FPTP, only Labour and maybe the SNP would have gained representation in Glasgow and CONFUSING A major criticism of the AMS is that it is difficult to understand. A complex formula is used to allocate seats and each person has 8 MSPs, unlike with FPTP which is a very straightforward system where constituents have 1 representative. Because there are 8 MSPs that citizens can potentially approach this might lead to confusion as to who to approach. Also, having to vote twice in an election

meant to be a Republican as well as trying to redefine the role of the federal government. He restored honor to the Party after Watergate nearly destroyed it. And today, he is referenced as the ideal Republican to such an extreme that the argument leaves recent and current Republicans such as George W. Bush and John McCain enduring heavy criticism for their moderation. How successful he actually was in redefining government is debatable, but the impact he had on politics was profound.

periOperative Registered Nurses (AORN), the Association for Professionals in Infection Control and Epidemiology (APIC), The Joint Commission (JCAHO) and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (USFDA), this system replaces ‘flash sterilization’ terminology with ‘immediate use’ language. Validated immediate-use prevacuum and gravity cycles are now available, and cycles can be customized and named by the user. Increased capacity and productivity Although these are categorized as ‘small’ sterilizers, their capacity is outstanding. The 20x20 model has up to three shelves with improved horizontal clearance and vertical spacing. Up to 75 lbs per cycle can be sterilized in the 20-inch models, and 50 lbs per cycle can be sterilized in the 16-inch models. An additional wider intermediate shelf is available for the 16-inch which enables the chamber to accommodate two large sets. This increased capacity takes up no additional room in the department, however, since the system has the same footprint as earlier models. Also, the Teflon®* sheathed easy-glide shelves allow fast and easy loading and unloading, to streamline processing. In addition, the Chimeron foot pedal opens the door to help avoid load contamination, and saves steps in the loading/unloading processes. Easy and safe Chimeron systems have a multitude of improvements that help make them safe and very user-friendly. For example, the front panel was redesigned and has a non-heat-conducting door surround for safety when unloading hot items from the chamber. Other safety features include a door that stops upon obstruction, and a control lockout feature that prevents the activation of a cycle if the door isn’t sealed. Many enhancements have been added to make the Chimeron systems very easy to operate. The wider shelf clearance makes it easier to load and unload larger sets (bariatric, Bookwalter, ortho sets). There is also a built-in flush/drain for steam generator units that extends their useful life and makes maintenance easier. The printer is located at an ergonomic height to avoid strain, and the enhanced control panel has a large countdown display that’s visible from 15 feet away for easy scanning and workflow planning. The Chimeron systems also have quick, intuitive control programming that gets cycles started faster, and Chimeron control panel messages are displayed in complete phrases, without confusing codes.

Name: Class Period: Due Date: / _/ Guided Reading & Analysis: Reconstruction, 1863-1877 chapter 15- Reconstruction pp 291-304 Section 1 Guided Reading, pp 291-303 1. Intro: Reconstruction, 1863-1877, page 291 Key Concepts & Main Notes The Union victory in the Civil War and the contested Reconstruction of the South settled the issues of slavery and secession, but left unresolved many questions about the power of the federal government and citizenship rights. Read the Frederick Douglas and first two paragraphs of the chapter on page 291. Summarize the 5 main questions facing the nation at the end of the Civil War. 1) 2) 3) 4) 5) What economic sectional conflicts remained in 1865? Northerners wanted…
Key Concepts & Main Ideas Analysis The Civil War and Reconstruction altered power relationships between the states and the federal government and among the executive, legislative, and judicial branches, ending slavery and the notion of a divisible union, but leaving unresolved questions of relative power and largely unchanged social and economic patterns. The 13th Amendment abolished slavery, bringing about the war’s most dramatic social and economic change, but the exploitative and soil- intensive sharecropping system endured for several generations. Johnson and Reconstruction… Johnson’s Reconstruction Policy… Southern Governments of 1865… Thirteenth Amendment… Black Codes… Johnson’s Vetoes… Support, refute, or modify the following statement: The Presidential Plans for Reconstruction reflected the belief that the primary goal was to reunite the nation. Write a complete thesis, and then defend your answer with evidence. 3. Congressional Reconstruction, pp 295-297 Key Concepts & Main Ideas Notes Analysis The Civil War and Reconstruction altered power relationships. Congressional Reconstruction… Radical Republicans… Was Congressional Reconstruction more about racial equality or political power? Explain your answer.
Johnson accused Radical Republicans of planting hecklers, inciting including the New Orleans Riot, and of wanting to keep the nation divided rather than re-uniting it. After Johnson compared himself to Jesus by saying that like the Savior, he too liked to pardon repentant sinners, his remaining speeches were drowned out by hecklers. State government officials refused to be seen with him. In the midterm elections that November, so disgusted were most Americans at Andrew Johnson that Republicans won two-thirds majorities in both houses of Congress. The GOP was then able to enact legislation to “rescue” southern states from the “neo-Confederate” Democrats. Thus began Radical Reconstruction.

arguments against the institution and assistance in helping slaves escape to willingness to use violence to achieve their goals. The second party system ended when the issues of slavery and nativism weakened loyalties to the two major parties and fostered the emergence of sectional parties, most notably the Republican Party in the North and the Midwest. Republican Nomination of Lincoln… A Fourth Political party… Election Results… Secession of the Deep South… In what ways were the rationales of secession following the election of Abraham Lincoln in 1860 similar to the rationales of the South Carolina Exposition and Protest and Ordinance of Nullification during the Jackson Era? The Road to Secession continued Key Concepts & Main Ideas Notes Analysis Repeated attempts at political compromise failed to calm tensions over slavery and often made sectional tensions worse, breaking down the trust between sectional leaders and culminating in the bitter election of 1860, followed by the secession of southern states Lincoln’s election on a free soil platform in the election of 1860 led various Southern leaders to conclude that their states must secede from the Union, precipitating civil war. Crittenden Compromise… Compare and Contrast the Crittenden Compromise and the Wilmot Proviso. Explain the significance of this comparison. Historical Perspectives: What Caused the War? pp 260-261 (E – IN CLASS) Civil War was caused by slavery… Civil War was caused by conflicting interpretations of the Constitution… Civil War was caused by opposing economic systems… Civil War was caused by a failure of compromise…
The North’s greater manpower and industrial resources, its leadership, and the decision for emancipation eventually led to the Union military victory over the Confederacy in the devastating Civil War. Lincoln’s decision to issue the Emancipation Proclamation changed the purpose of the war, enabling many African Americans to fight in the Union Army, and helping prevent the Confederacy from gaining full diplomatic support from European powers. The 13th Amendment abolished slavery, bringing about the war’s most dramatic social and economic change… Foreign Affairs and Diplomacy… Trent Affair… Confederate Raiders… Failure of Cotton Diplomacy… The End of Slavery… Confiscation Acts… Emancipation Proclamation… Consequences… Thirteenth Amendment… Freedmen in the War… Explain why the South failed to develop an alliance with Great Britain.

How much social mobility was there? The South Continued… Key Concepts & Main Ideas Notes Analysis Many white Americans in the South asserted their regional identity through pride in the institution of slavery, insisting that the federal government should defend that institution. Despite the outlawing of the international slave trade, the rise in the number of free African Americans in both the North and the South, and widespread discussion of various emancipation plans, the U.S. and many state governments continued to restrict African Americans’ citizenship possibilities. Southern Thought… Code of Chivalry… Education… Religion… Food for thought: Colonel is still a badge of honor in the South. Colonel Sanders, for example, proudly embraced his title given to him in Kentucky (a southern state, although “border state” in the war). He was named Colonel in the 1930s, so the romance lives on.(no he never served in the military) Another Kentucky Colonel? Muhammad Ali. Times change! (images captured from kfc.com and wallart.com) Sir Walter Scott was a favorite author of many elite southerners. He wrote many books of chivalry and feudal society that plantation elite identified with. Accused by Mark Twain of having a hand in the Civil War, Scott supposedly aroused southerners to fight for a deteriorating social structure. “It was Sir Walter that made every gentleman in the South a Major or a Colonel, or a General or a Judge, before the war; and it was he, also, that made those gentlemen value their bogus decorations. For it was he that created rank and caste down there, and also reverence for rank and caste, and pride and pleasure in them. Enough is laid on slavery, without fathering upon it these creations and contributions of Sir Walter. Sir Walter had so large a hand in making Southern character, as it existed before the war, which he is in great measure responsible for the war.” Mark Twain - Life on the Mississippi.

The Presidency of Andrew Jackson Continued… Key Concepts & Main Ideas Notes Analysis Resistance to initiatives for democracy and inclusion included restrictive policies. Supreme Court decisions sought to assert federal power over state laws and the primacy of the judiciary in determining the meaning of the Constitution. The nation’s transformation to a more participatory democracy was accompanied by continued debates over federal power, the relationship between the federal government and the states, the authority of different branches of the federal government, and the rights and responsibilities of individual citizens. Many white Americans in the South asserted their regional identity through pride in the institution of slavery, insisting that the federal government should defend that institution.

School Wide Expectations Be Safe Be Responsible Be Respectful Keep yourself and others from physical and emotional harm. This is important because we all learn best when we feel safe. Be dependable and worthy of trust. This is important because responsibility allows us to count on each other. Be polite and kind to everyone. This is important because everyone deserves to be treated with kindness. Grading Scale Standard Grade Rubric Criteria Advanced A The student scores highly on work samples, and consistently applies grade level content standards at a high rate of accuracy to the point they expand and can instruct others. In addition to B performance, in-depth inferences and applications that go beyond what was taught. Proficient B The student scores 4 on work samples, and consistently applies grade level content standards at a high rate of accuracy (no gap in knowledge and skills even if there are a few minor errors).No major errors or omissions regarding any of the information and/or processes (simple or complex) that were explicitly taught. Basic C The student scores a 3 or 2 on work samples. No errors regarding the simpler details and processes, and some of the more complex ideas and processes. Student has understanding and can consistently do most of what is asked on grade level content standards (some minor gaps in knowledge and skills). No major errors or omissions regarding the simpler details and processes but major errors or omissions regarding the more complex ideas and processes. Basic D A partial understanding of some of the simpler details and processes, but major errors or omissions regarding the more complex details and processes. Student has some understanding and can do some of what is asked on grade level content standards (major gaps in knowledge and skills). With help, a partial understanding of some of the simpler details and processes and some of the more complex ideas and processes. Just Beginning F Student has completed and/or attempted the task, but even with help, little to no understanding or skill demonstrated. Not Assessed / Insufficient Evidence I (inc) No evidence. Student has been absent or has provided no data in to make a decision about their understanding of the learning target. Work needs to be made up within the allotted timeframe.
Details of the metrics calculations can be found in section 9.6. Comparison After processing the data, calibrating the model, running a simulation, and calculating metrics, the last step in the workflow is to compare the simulated performance measures with actual observed measurements: Figure 416: Comparing simulated and observed measurements The comparison followed these steps: The AMS team selected 21 days from March to May of 2014 that mimics the baseline situation being modeled. Of these 21 days, the team used data from 15 days from March and April in the calibration and simulation process. This was the Calibration Data Set. The simulated flow was then compared to measured flow (from loop data) from the 6 days in May (the Validation Data Set), according to the FHWA model calibration criteria. Technically, making comparisons this way prevents over-fitting data to the model. Intuitively, if one imagines that the current time is the end of April, data from the past (March and April) can be used to calibrate the model. The goal is to predict future traffic status. Flow comparison: Figure 417 the comparison of the flows. Loop measurements are available at many locations on Huntington and its side streets. Their average flows are shown as the red bars. The average of the simulated flows are shown as the blue bars. A visual inspection shows that the simulated flows are close to the measured flows: Figure 417: Comparison of simulated against real measurements
Recurrent bottleneck extent Within 0.5 miles ~6miles +/- 1/2 mile ~6miles ~1/2 mile yes The separately calibrated freeway and arterial models were connected and simulated together. Results were visually inspected to ensure that the models behaved appropriately in concert. The only adjustment made was to tune off-ramp flow onto the Huntington off-ramp to reproduce the desired demand on the arterial network. Simulation results of the combined freeway and arterial are detailed in section 5.3. Figure 425: Combined freeway + arterial network
Management will formalise access to individuals with antimicrobial prescribing expertise (eg: pharmacist or general practitioner) Management will ensure that all clinical staff can access current endorsed national guidelines on antimicrobial prescribing. Management will ensure that mechanisms are in place to enable staff to access medical assessment and antimicrobials in a timely way for patients with acute infections. Management will require endorsed guidelines for appropriate diagnostic testing (eg: correctly obtaining microbiological specimens) for specific infections are followed. Management will ensure a system is in that enables diagnostic test results to be reviewed in a timely way. Management will require that if an antimicrobial is prescribed, the resident is clinically assessed by the prescriber within 48 Management will require that if an antimicrobial is prescribed all key prescribing elements are documented. Management will require all new antimicrobial prescriptions are reviewed within seven days and all prolonged antimicrobial prescriptions are reviewed at least half yearly. Management will ensure a resident with a suspected infection, and/or carer, receives information on their health condition and treatment options in a format and language that they can understand. Management will specify a person who is responsible for leading and co-ordinating AMS initiatives. The nominated AMS person has the authority to review all procedures and guidelines that contain recommendations for the use of antimicrobials to ensure that the advice is evidence where possible and concordant with AMS principles. The nominated AMS person has the authority to lead at least annual audits of infections and antimicrobial prescribing practices. The nominated AMS person is expected to provide reports to management regarding prescribing performance and should provide clinically meaningful feedback to clinicians.
