Preguntas al Delegado 9. Enlaces Utiles 10. Bibliografia 1. Cartas de los Presidentes Estimados delegados del GAC de la CIA Llevo alrededor de cinco años participando en modelos de la ONU y puedo decir que son unas de las experiencias que más me han formado tanto como persona como estudiante. Este es un comité particularmente único en el cual espero que todos puedan tener unos días llenos de aprendizaje. Por lo tanto, tenemos expectativas altas para todos nuestros delegados porque queremos hacer de COSMUN una simulación de la cual todos puedan estar orgullosos en cuanto a su rendimiento y participación. Esperamos además, que estén comprometidos a dar su mejor esfuerzo en el evento, y prepararse lo mayor posible acerca de la Guerra Fría y todas las personas que en ella marcaron la historia del 3 mundo. Yo, Luisa Munera junto con Tomás estaremos dispuestos a ayudarlos con lo que necesiten y a aclarar las dudas que puedan tener. Será un placer ver como en los días de la simulación irán desarrollando ideas, amistades, y memorias que perduraran por siempre con ustedes. Esperamos que traigan con ustedes la mejor actitud y preparación para que puedan así tener su mayor desempeño y mostrarnos sus mejores capacidades como delegados. Al investigar acerca de la Guerra Fría y los dos bandos, antes, y durante la simulación aprenderán adecuada y cercanamente sobre una época cuyo capítulo es uno de los más incomprendidos y complicados en el pasado de las naciones involucradas. Les recomendamos leer lo más que puedan acerca del tema y usar todos los recursos posibles. Así no llegarán al modelo con muchas dudas, lo cual es de gran importancia ya que este comité es de extrema velocidad y no habrá mucho tiempo de sobra para inquietudes. Por ende, las confusiones que tengan es mejor que las traten de aclarar con nuestra ayuda antes del modelo. Nos veremos pronto, Luisa M​ú​nera Estimados delegados del GAC de la CIA Les quiero dar una muy cordial bienvenida al comité más nuevo y más complejo que se ha realizado en el mundo de los Modelos de Naciones Unidas. Yo, Tomás Tobón llevo estando en el mundo de MUN desde 5​o.​ Además, me siento profundamente honrado de poder participar con ustedes como su vice presidencia en COSMUN 2020 y me comprometo en ayudarles a ustedes cuando lo requieran. Con esto dicho, quiero aclarar que mis expectativas de todos ustedes son muy altas ya que con este tipo de comité se requieren de destrezas y capacidades cognitivas que no encontrarán en otros comités. No falta decir que esperamos que lean la guia y el manual de procedimientos en su totalidad 4 con el fin de que todos ustedes se integren de una manera orgánica a todo lo que trataremos en el comité. Al tener experiencia en comités como este, les podemos asegurar que van a salir de esta versión de COSMUN con amigos nuevos y una perspectiva diferente hacia lo que puede llegar a ser un Modelo de Naciones Unidas. Todos en el comité trabajarán por un objetivo único, que se volverá más importante para ustedes que cualquier premio académico; ganar la guerra. Para lograr esta meta, dispondrán de espías, dinero, influencia política, tropas, entre muchas otras. Ustedes estarán en contacto constante con el Centro de estrategias. Por ende, tendrán que tener un entendimiento completo sobre su propósito y su uso, y por esto mismo es que esperamos que lean el manual de la Sala de Crisis en su totalidad. Los espero con ansias, Tomas Tobon 2. Manual de Procedimientos GAC Por estar en este tipo de comité es OBLIGATORIO para los delegados leer el manual de procedimientos primero que la presente guía específico al GAC que se encuentra aquí​. 3. Proposito del comite El propósito de un GAC es más que todo para que los delegados que hagan parte puedan avanzar su conocimiento histórico, su pensamiento crítico bajo estrés y sus habilidades de respuesta. Todos estos siendo puestos a prueba en el campo de batalla o en el mundo electoral. El GAC ha sido uno de las mejores comites de cualquier modelo, ya que, ha pesar de su dificultad, es amado por todos sus participantes. Añadiendo a que el GAC no es comité que hace partes de la Organización de las Naciones Unidas (O.N.U), 5 funciona bajo sus propias leyes y dependiendo de la persona, estas son o más laxas o más estrictas. Sin importar el tema que se discuta, nada va a salir como uno lo planeo forzando a los delegados a ser flexibles sobre sus propagandas políticas o repensar sus tácticas en tiempos de guerra. 3.1 ¿Qué es un GAC? El Gabinete Adjunto de Crisis es un comité que crea posibles escenarios de crisis en el que se enfrentan dos bandos cara a cara. Los debates deberían ser las soluciones inmediatas a las crisis, decididas por los delegados de cada lado. Para COSMUN 2020, el GAC simulara de manera simultánea, ambos lados de La Guerra Fría, donde la CIA y la KGB se estarán enfrentando por la supremacía capitalista o comunista, peleada por los más influenciales personajes de ambos gabinetes. Representarán personas en vez de países, por ende deberían seguir la mentalidad de los personajes de este periodo, respetar alianzas y seguir el bien común: derrotar al otro partido. Los comités de crisis son caracterizados por su alta frecuencia de crisis que se les lanzan a los delegados, lo que demanda una capacidad de respuesta bastante alta junto con la habilidad de tomar ágiles decisiones por parte de los delegados. Es esperado que los delegados entiendan la situación política en la que se encuentran sus personajes y representarlos en acorde con sus intereses. 3.2 ¿Por qué el GAC es importante? El GAC le da a los delegados la posibilidad de cambiar la historia por completo, analizando todas las estrategias que se puedan usar para poder ganar el conflicto bélico e ideológico. Los delegados que participen pueden expandir su conocimiento histórico exponencialmente con solo estar presente en comité, que avanzara el nivel académico de COSMUN y de los delegados como tal. El GAC de COSMUN 2020 será especialmente importante, ya que La Guerra Fría definió más de la mitad del siglo XX, donde sus 6 ideologías, ideas y efectos todavía se sienten hoy por bien o por mal. Las Naciones Unidas de hoy fue causa de la Segunda Guerra Mundial, pero la que la formó a la institución que hoy existe fue La Guerra Fría. Por eso es importante saber como naciones que eran hostiles a otras, ya no lo son. Todo por el bien común: la paz 4. Composicion 4.1 Gabinetes Los gabinetes son reuniones compuestas por jefes de estado o altos funcionarios de los gobiernos participantes de los diferentes órganos estatales. Estas dichas reuniones son organizadas para enfrentar conflictos que afecten al país o a un bloque/alianza (en este caso será la Agencia Central de Inteligencia de los Estados Unidos en contra de la KGB de la Unión Soviética) de los participantes. Además, los delegados controlan a personajes que no solo cuentan con poder político sino que también cuentan con recursos específicos que están disponibles para su uso. Con lo anteriormente dicho, vale resaltar que los delegados están sujetos a recibir actualizaciones con respecto a sus recursos otras cuestiones de políticas internas durante el desarrollo de comité. 4.2 Sala de Crisis La Sala de Crisis es la entidad responsable por dar respuesta a acciones tomadas por cada gabinete. Por ende, el Centro de estrategias recibe notas con indicaciones militares, políticas, económicas, y/o privadas de cada gabinete, alianza y/o delegado, y responde a ellas con su aprobación o negación. Además, la Sala decide cuál será el impacto de cada nota en los gabinetes. La Sala también puede crear sus propias crisis, dar información o tomar cualquier tipo de acción que pueda enriquecer y guiar el debate. 7 5. La Guerra Fria 5.1 Introduccion La Guerra Fría es el nombre coloquial e histórico que se le pone a las épocas entre 1945 hasta 1991, Porqué Guerra Fría? Se le nombró así porque después de la caída de las potencias del eje (Alemania, Japón e Italia y sus varios aliados) nacieron 2 nuevas superpotencias que aunque eran enemigas hasta la muerte, nunca se pelearon directamente una contra la otra.

    OFFICERS OF THE EXECUTIVE BRANCH OF THE GOVERNMENT [ 1 ] EXPLANATORY NOTE A Cabinet officer is not appointed for a fixed term and does not necessarily go out of office with the President who made the appointment. While it is customary to tender one’s resignation at the time a change of administration takes place, officers remain formally at the head of their department until a successor is appointed. Subordinates acting temporarily as heads of departments are not con- sidered Cabinet officers, and in the earlier period of the Nation’s history not all Cabinet officers were heads of executive departments. The names of all those exercising the duties and bearing the respon- sibilities of the executive departments, together with the period of service, are incorporated in the lists that follow. The dates immediately following the names of executive officers are those upon which commis- sions were issued, unless otherwise specifically noted. Where periods of time are indicated by dates as, for instance, March 4, 1793, to March 3, 1797, both such dates are included as portions of the time period. On occasions when there was a vacancy in the Vice Presidency, the President pro tem- pore is listed as the presiding officer of the Senate. The Twentieth Amendment to the Constitution (effective Oct. 15, 1933) changed the terms of the President and Vice President to end at noon on the 20th day of January and the terms of Senators and Representatives to end at noon on the 3d day of January when the terms of their successors shall begin.

No excuses^ therefore^for the somewhatfrequent use of the personal pro- 7WU71 in the recital^ need be offered. The account of the later years should^ perhaps^ be more full; but conspicuous hap- penings in these years have been comparatively few. They have been years marked chiefly by sustained interest on the part of the members^ by the excellence of the literaryfeast pro- vided at the meetings^ by the steady maintenance of the spirit offellowship between the members^ and by the atmosphere that this has created and which has been a distinguishing feature of the clubfrom its earliest days to the present time. As the roll of members^ past and present^ shows that resignations were sent in by no less than three hundred and thirty -five of the eight hundredand seventy-seven whose names appear upon the list., it may here be stated by way of expla- nation^ that in a great majority of the cases the reason for resigning was^for one cause or another^ inability to attend the meetings.

The Act created two Budget Committees, one in the House and one in the Senate, as well as the Congressional Budget Office (CBO). At the time of its creation, CBO was thought to be one of the principal mechanisms for Congress to secure a more active role in budgetary control and the setting of national priorities, since CBO was conceived in part to provide Congress with the resources to assess the policy implications of the budget. This thesis presents an empirical analysis of CBO which focuses on two principal areas: assessing CBO's dis- crete impact on the balance of power through identifying the governing factors of that impact and determining the impact of CBO strategy on its ability to establish itself as a viable congressional support agency.

    DESIGN FEATURES of OLDER BANKNOTES (For Series 1988A and Older)

    DESIGN FEATURES OF OLDER BANKNOTES (for Series 1988A and older) www.fraudfighter.com 800.883.8822 This guide will help you authenticate Federal Reserve Notes Series 1928-1988A. There are four steps you should take to authenticate these notes: 1) Check for raised printing • This is the only security feature that is found on these notes. The raised printing feature is discussed on the page 6. 2) Make sure that lines and points on the bill are distinct and unbroken • Depending on the sophisication of the counterfeit, lines and points may be unclear and/or blurry. However, modern printing technology has become advanced and afford able enough that a great deal of counterfeits have distinct and unbroken lines and points, which is why you should also: 3) Check that the paper that the bill is printed on does not glow under UV light • The paper that real money is printed on absorbs light as opposed to reflecting it, which gives it a dull appearance under UV light. However, a favored method of counterfeiting money is to bleach lower denominations, such as a $1 bill, and print higher denominations, such as a $20 bill, onto of it; such a counterfeit would look like a real bill under UV light, which is why you should also: 4) Know what the denominations look like and know when major design changes occurred • It is helpful to know when major design changes occurred so that you do not turn away a real bill; just because a design on an old bill is slightly different than what you’re used to for more modern bills does not necessarily mean that it is fake.

The seal appears on the face of all United States paper currency. 2005 Introduction The management of the money resources of the United States has always been the primary function of the Department of the Treasury. Whether it is regulating national banks, determining international economic policy, collecting income and excise taxes, issuing securities, reporting the government’s daily financial transactions, or manufacturing coins or bills for circulation,the one concern that still ties together the activities of the Department of the Treasury is money. Though formally established as an executive department by the First Session of Congress in 1789,many functions of the Department of the Treasury were being carried out even before the signing of the Declaration of Independence thirteen years earlier. Over the decades, the functions of the Department have expanded and grown more sophisticated to meet the needs of a developing nation. Today, the Department of the Treasury remains the premier financial institution of the United States with a full-time agenda of accounting, revenue collection, money production, and economic policy formulation. The Treasury Building in Washington, D.C. is featured on the reverse of the $10 bill. All United States currency and coinage are produced by the Department of the Treasury.
