Explain the impact of the guerrillas actions on the individuals involved, the organization, and public policy. Finally, explain whether you agree or disagree with their actions and why.
Discussion: Guerrilla Government and Waldos Map of Ethical Obligations of a Public ServantIn what context should you view guerrilla government activities? The literature points to three lenses through which you can view such activities: the bureaucratic politics lens, the organization and management lens, and the ethics lens. The ethics lens is the most challenging because of the subjective influences that affect how individuals identify ethical behavior. Who determines ethical behavior and how do these individuals compel others to adhere to it? One way to identify whether a behavior is ethical is to consider if it violates your professional obligation as a public administrator. Waldos Map of Ethical Obligations accomplishes just that.For this Discussion, review Chapters 1 and 2 in OLeary (2014). Specifically, focus on the individuals competing obligations and the ethical approach used by the Nevada Four guerrillas in the Nevada Wetlands case study. Familiarize yourself with Waldos map of ethical obligations of a public servant. (See Attachment)Post an explanation of the Nevada Four guerrillas competing obligations using Waldos map of ethical obligations of a public servant. Explain the impact of the guerrillas actions on the individuals involved, the organization, and public policy. Finally, explain whether you agree or disagree with their actions and why.Support your postings and responses with specific references to the resources.

Think about a population proportion that you may be interested in and propose a confidence interval problem for this parameter.
For your initial post, choose one of the following two prompts to respond to. Then in your two follow up posts, respond at least once in each option.Write a confidence interval problem using one of the options below. For whichever option you choose, gather the appropriate data and post your problem (without a solution) in the discussion topic. Allow time for your classmates to post their solutions, and then respond to your own post with the solution for others to check their work.Option 1:Think about a population mean that you may be interested in and propose a confidence interval problem for this parameter. Your data values should be approximately normal.For example, you may want to estimate the population mean number of times that adults go out for dinner each week. Your data could be that you spoke with seven people you know and found that they went out 2, 0, 1, 5, 0, 2, and 3 times last week. You then would choose to calculate a 95% (or another level) confidence interval for the population mean.Assume a random sample was chosen, which is required to determine a confidence interval.Option 2:Think about a population proportion that you may be interested in and propose a confidence interval problem for this parameter.For example, you may like to estimate the population proportion of adults in the US who own SUVs. The data could be that you researched online by looking at a local dealership to find that 142 of the 432 vehicles sold are SUVs. You want to calculate a 90% (or another level) confidence interval for the population proportion. Assume a random sample.RESPONSEFor your response to a classmate (two responses are required, one in EACH option), solve a classmates confidence interval problem using a confidence level not previously used for that specific classmates problem. Make sure that you use appropriate terminology to state the problem and explain your solution.

What are the key components of the architecture American Express has created?
Read the Case Study 6-1, Enterprise Architecture at American Express. Answer the following questions:What are the key components of the architecture American Express has created?Why was it important to standardize so much of the architecture? What are the advantages and disadvantages of a standard EA for American Express?Describe how the new architecture supports the goals and strategy of American Express.What types of future payment products and services should be anticipated and prepared for by the EA group? What is your vision of how payments might work?If you were advising the CIO of American Express, what would you suggest his group prepare for?CASE STUDY 6-1 Enterprise Architecture at American ExpressEnterprise architecture (EA) at American Express was the framework the organization used to align IT and the business. EA provided a common language for leaders to use to collaborate and transform the business. At American Express, enterprise architects were the change agents who streamlined processes and designed ways to more effectively do business using IT resources. In 2011, American Express was named an InfoWorld/Forrester Enterprise Architecture Award recipient for its EA practices. As American Express leaders considered new payment methods using mobile devices, the EA guided their progress. Mobile payments were forcing the payments industry to review their practices and significantly transform the way business was done. The new business environment introduced additional complexity with the addition of new delivery channels and the need for shorter time-to-market of payment products and services. American Expresss business strategy for its payments products focused on delivering a consistent, global, integrated customer experience based on services running on a common application platform. To achieve this goal, the EA team created reference architectures and road maps for standardized applications across the firm. This team then worked with multiple business solution delivery teams to create and manage the common application architecture and create strategies that facilitated each businesss objectives. Each strategy included a road map of initiatives that included a set of actions, the metrics to evaluate the success of these actions, and the commitments IT and the businesses made to make it happen. The road map was American Expresss way to standardize language, tools, life cycle management of the applications, and architecture and governance processes. The elements of the road map included technology, reference architecture, and capabilities for the business. The next steps for American Express were to extend the road maps to cover the maturing of SOA and to develop new reference architectures and a new taxonomy to increasingly align IT with the needs of the business. As new technologies emerged and new ways of doing business over social tools created opportunities for new payment products and services, American Express expected to continually evolve its EA.
Would one miss an opportunity not attending one of the concerts?
Each week,you will be asked to respond to the prompt or prompts in the discussion forum. Your initial post should be300 or more words in length, respond to two additional posts from your peers.Opportunity CostEvery decision has an Opportunity Cost due to the nature of scarcity, there is always a better alternative not chosen, therefore, there is always an opportunity cost. The opportunity cost of an alternative is what you give up to pursue it (Froeb, McCann,Shor & Ward, 2016). When you go to a Maroon 5 concert, you give up $100 of benefits you would have received if you had gone to a Beyoncé concert. Also, you would also avoid $80 of cost for the Beyoncé concert. According to the definition below, the opportunity cost of seeing Maroon 5 concert is $100 $80 = $20. Please delve into the statement there are always opportunity costs. How can an individual make the best decision? Is there a best decision? Would one miss an opportunity not attending one of the concerts? Include a minimum of one reference.
