The counselor is not the strategy. The counselor teaches strategies. As counselors, we spend our days helping kids. Kids come to us with a variety of problems, searching for answers. They want us to listen. And they need us to give them solutions for the issues they are facing. While these solutions may work temporarily, we really never help kids until we give them tools - or techniques - to manage thoughts and feelings on their own. Our job is not to do it for them. Our job is to teach them how to do it themselves! This is the greatest gift we can give. In 15-Minute Counseling Techniques, Allison Edwards provides tools to use in individual or group counseling sessions with children in grades K-12. Children will learn how to calm their mind and body with Square Breathing, let go of negative thoughts by Changing the Channel, identify their unique gifts by creating a "What I'm Good At" Jar, and so much more. The techniques in this book will help children feel empowered to face everyday challenges and equipped to manage their stress and emotions. And, best of all, you will give them the confidence they need to handle challenges throughout their lives.

This book covers fundamentals of Solar Energy.Application of Solar Energy in Agricultural Sectors as well as Transporation Sector..Comparison Solar Energy with Wind Energy.Advantages and Disadvantages of Solar Panels.In the long run, solar power saves money. Initial costs of installation and operations may be more expensive that other energy forms but after settling the expenses, you have an energy resource that is free. Nobody charges for using sunlight, right? The return of investment can also be shorter depending on how much energy you use. You won't spend too much on maintenance etc. There are no mechanical or moving parts to oil and maintain nor are there parts that need to be replaced yearly. Of course solar power is environmental friendly. First its renewable not like fossil fuels which according to studies will be gone in four to five decades.The process of converting energy to usable electricity does not involve the release of toxic chemicals which can harm the environment. Carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxide, sulphur dioxide, lead, and mercury emissions will be a memory of the past when everyone goes solar. Relying on the sun for power also helps reduce global warming

This book explains the theoretical structure of particle swarm optimization (PSO) and focuses on the application of PSO to portfolio optimization problems. The general goal of portfolio optimization is to find a solution that provides the highest expected return at each level of portfolio risk. According to H. Markowitz¿s portfolio selection theory, as new assets are added to an investment portfolio, the total risk of the portfoliös decreases depending on the correlations of asset returns, while the expected return on the portfolio represents the weighted average of the expected returns for each asset.The book explains PSO in detail and demonstrates how to implement Markowitz¿s portfolio optimization approach using PSO. In addition, it expands on the Markowitz model and seeks to improve the solution-finding process with the aid of various algorithms. In short, the book provides researchers, teachers, engineers, managers and practitioners with many tools they need to apply the PSO technique to portfolio optimization.

In diesem Buch lernen Sie die Vielfalt der Wechselwirkungen von Zufallsvariablen und unterschiedliche Ansätze ihrer theoretischen Beschreibung kennen. Im Fokus der Betrachtungen steht der Einsatz von Copulas; Sie lernen gezielt mit diesen zu operieren. Sie erfahren zunächst anhand umfangreicher Resultate und zahlreicher Beispiele, welche Ausprägungen von Abhängigkeitsstrukturen mit welchen Eigenschaften von Copulas korrespondieren. Anschließend lernen Sie ausgewählte Anwendungen der zuvor bereitgestellten Erkenntnisse kennen, die meist aus der Versicherungstechnik stammen. Sie erhalten beispielsweise einen Einblick in die speziellen Abhängigkeitsstrukturen in den Modellen der Erfahrungstarifierung. Eine Besonderheit stellt der Umgang mit Summen abhängiger Zufallsvariablen dar: Sie erfahren, wie auch ohne Vorliegen der häufigen Annahme der Unabhängigkeit die Verteilung der Summen bestimmt werden kann. Die Anwendungen und Untersuchungen werden zumeist durch Simulationen und Punktwolken illustriert.

Masterarbeit aus dem Jahr 2021 im Fachbereich BWL - Investition und Finanzierung, Note: 1,0, Fachhochschule Vorarlberg GmbH (Wirtschaft), Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Die Bedeutung von Nachhaltigkeit steigt stetig und Investoren berücksichtigen immer häufiger ESG-Risiken in deren Investments. Dabei stellt sich die Frage, wie ESG-Kriterien auch in KMU implementiert werden können und welche Auswirkungen wiederum auf deren Finanzierung zu erwarten sind. Es wurde im Zuge der Arbeit sowohl eine quantitative (Umfrage) als auch eine qualitative (Experteninterviews) Untersuchung durchgeführt.Die Berücksichtigung von ESG-Risiken ist ein langfristiger Prozess. Dabei spielen die Schaffung eines Bewusstseins, Generierung von Know-how sowie Bereitstellung einer validen Datengrundlage für die Identifizierung und Bewertung der Risiken eine entscheidende Rolle. Es können für KMU sowohl unmittelbare als auch mittelbare Auswirkungen auf deren Finanzierung erwartet werden. Unmittelbare Auswirkungen sind in KMU bisher selten zu finden, äußern sich aber teilweise durch geringere Finanzierungskosten, die signifikant abhängig von der Ausprägung des Risikomanagements sind. Als mittelbare Effekte konnten Auswirkungen auf die Reputation und finanzielle Performance identifiziert werden, die sich in der Ausfallwahrscheinlichkeit von Unternehmen und damit der Kreditgewährung und Konditionsgestaltung niederschlagen können.

In Take on the Street, Arthur Levitt--Chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission for eight years under President Clinton--provides the best kind of insider information: the kind that can help honest, small investors protect themselves from the deliberately confusing ways of Wall Street.At a time when investor confidence in Wall Street and corporate America is at an historic low, when many are seriously questioning whether or not they should continue to invest, Levitt offers the benefits of his own experience, both on Wall Street and as its chief regulator. His straight talk about the ways of stockbrokers (they are salesmen, plain and simple), corporate financial statements (the truth is often hidden), mutual fund managers (remember who they really work for), and other aspects of the business will help to arm everyone with the tools they need to protect—and enhance—their financial future.

The definitive book of snow and avalanche science - now also in EnglishIn the hugely successful innovative manual "lawine" published eight years ago, internationally recognized 'avalanche warner' authors Rudi Mair and Patrick Nairz succeeded in writing the definitive work of avalanche science. Partially responsible its success was their innovative concept of Danger Patterns, which led the European Avalanche Warning Services to introduce cross-border depictions of five Avalanche Problems in 2014. These problems, which occur repeatedly in every mountain region throughout the course of winter, are also depicted in this definitive work: 1. Fresh Snow, 2. Snowdrifts, 3. Old Snow, 4. Wet Snow and 5. Gliding Snow. These fundamental problems are then explored more deeply in the ten decisive Danger Patterns.What are the typical meteorological conditions in early winter, deep winter, late winter and springtime? What effects do they have on the snow cover? And above all: what threats do they create? Short, concise blocks of information, highly expressive photos of the complexities of the landscape optimize comprehensive expertise of this science. Through the analysis of typical accidents (which have actually occurred) these recurring danger patterns are illustrated with a clarity that makes them recognizable on-site.Adopting this approach, the book pursues a classic strategic path of risk management, e.g. '3x3' or 'stop or go' thereby melding to a graspable, all-encompassing whole. A book born of practice in outlying terrain, a practical manual for outdoor experiences. It was awarded the Platinum Book Prize by the Austrian Book Association and named the standard work of snow and avalanche science. And now, finally, it is available in English.
