In our first year we used the consensus demand because we did not know the dynamics of the group‚ and we were relying on their expertise to guide us toward a more accurate forecast. As we progressed through the simulation we came to the realization that the consensus

On February 8th‚ 2013 I visited fire station #6 located in Costa Mesa‚ California. I called the station prior to my visit and spoke with a fire fighter named Story. He said it would be alright to stop by around two o’clock. Upon arrival I came up with ten questions to ask him that I thought would provide me with a better understanding of what it takes to be a fire fighter. During my visit to the fire station I wanted to identify what it takes to be a firefighter‚ the day to day operations at the

ANIMALS‚ HUMANS‚ AND LANGUAGE Anders Holmberg One of the properties we have as humans which makes us different from other species is a capacity for acquiring and using a form of language which is far more complex than the language‚ or system of communication‚ of any other species. This capacity has been crucial for the evolution of human technology and human society‚ providing us with a huge advantage over other species. The advantage derives not just from the fact that human language is a
