Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Auditor’s Responsibility Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the City of Atlantis, Florida’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the City of Atlantis, Florida’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion. Opinion In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, and each major fund of the City of Atlantis, Florida, as of September 30, 2017, and the respective changes in financial position, and, where applicable, the cash flows thereof for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated March 15, 2018, on our consideration of the City of Atlantis, Florida’s internal control over financial reporting and our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts and grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering City of Atlantis, Florida’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance. Other Matters Required Supplementary Information Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the management’s discussion and analysis, budgetary comparison schedule and other required supplementary information as reflected in the table of contents, on pages 3 through 10 and 58 through 63, be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board, who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. We have applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which consisted of inquiries of management about the methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency with management’s responses to our inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance. Holyfield & Thomas, LLC West Palm Beach, Florida March 15, 2018 CITY OF ATLANTIS, FLORIDA MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS For the Year Ended September 30, 2017 As management of the City of Atlantis, Florida (City), we offer readers of the City’s financial statements this narrative overview and analysis of the financial activities of the City for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017, in conjunction with the accompanying basic financial statements.

Nowadays, many heads of states in Europe, Asia and America claim to be true leaders, however not all of them succeed in reaching this goal. The authors attempt to determine the characteristics and parameters of a successful political manager of the late twentieth and early twenty-first century. They chose a rarely studied example - the “Comandante en Jefe” Fidel Castro, a Cuban patriot, but by no means a democrat. Our paper shows how this politician achieved complete independence for his small and weak country, using bold management decisions and marketing technologies. It considers the influence of Fidel Castro’s personality on historical and political processes in Latin America and the system of relations between socialist countries. It also outlines the stages of building socialism in Cuba and Castro’s successful steps to defend its achievements after the collapse of the world socialist system.

The series now at 3 has become a total mess. In this one, we are supposed to imagine that an ad hoc servile insurrection changes entire folkways after one battle. What is worse is the endless talking by uninteresting characters. I hope he end this series. Jun 07, Angus Whittaker rated it did not like it Shelves: read-in I only wish I could give this thing negative stars. It is bad - laughably bad. Or cry-ably bad. For starters, everyone in the novel is an idiot, and I mean that as sincerely as possible. The entire cast has about half a cup of intelligence between them, though Harry Turtledove seems to think they're all sharp as tacks. He repeatedly tells us how clever and wry his characters are, even as they spout their idiotic nonsense ineffectually masquerading as wit. Turtledove seems to have only enough ima I only wish I could give this thing negative stars. Turtledove seems to have only enough imagination for about five different types of scenes in the whole book.

  • Neocolonialism in Disney's Renaissance
    Neocolonialism in Disney’s Renaissance: Analyzing Portrayals of Race and Gender in Pocahontas, The Hunchback of Notre Dame, and Atlantis: The Lost Empire by Breanne Johnson A THESIS submitted to Oregon State University Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Public Health: Health Promotion/Health Behavior (Honors Scholar) Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Sustainability (Honors Scholar) Presented June 7, 2019 Commencement June 2019 AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Breanne Johnson for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Public Health: Health Promotion/Health Behavior and Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Sustainability presented on June 7, 2019. Title: Neocolonialism in Disney’s Renaissance: Analyzing Portrayals of Race and Gender in Pocahontas, The Hunchback of Notre Dame, and Atlantis: The Lost Empire. Abstract approved:_____________________________________________________ Elizabeth Sheehan The Walt Disney Company is one of the most recognizable and pervasive sources of children’s entertainment worldwide and has carefully crafted an image of childhood innocence. This wholesome image is contradicted by Disney’s consistent use of racist and sexist tropes, as well as its record of covertly using political themes in its media. Disney has a history of using its animated films to further a neocolonial ideology – an ideology that describes how current global superpowers continue to control the natural and capital resources of underdeveloped countries and to profit off of the unequal trading of these resources. The period of Disney’s history known as its animated Renaissance marked a clear return to the brand’s championing of American interventionism abroad.

Members of the other genera occur on Pagm-idae. In a collection of parasitized galatheids belonging to the Museum of Comparative Zoology (MCZ) , Harvard University, that the author, through the courtesy of Dr. Elisabeth Deichmann, had the privilege of studying, some remarkable new representatives of Peltogastridae were encountered. The specimens, obtained off the north coast of Cuba by the Atlantis expeditions to the West Indies in 1938 and 1939, comprise two new species of a new genus that are described in this paper. The Atlantis material also includes Galatheascus minutus Boschma, hitherto unreported from American waters, and Tortugaster fistulatus Reinhard. An inspection of some of the Galatheidae in the U. S. National Museum brought to light additional examples of one of the new species and of Galatheascus minutus. Moreover, two parasitized specimens ' A posthumous paper.

Remember, all documentation is your responsibility and no refund is offered should you not be able to travel due to improper documentation. Entry Requirements and Testing The Dominican Republic (DR) requires that all guests complete a health questionnaire and submit to a screening for temperature upon arrival. Additionally, their immigration officials are conducting random Covid-19 rapid tests at the airport upon arrival. Approximately 10-15% of travelers will be selected for an on-site rapid COVID-19 test. In the case of a positive test, you will not be allowed to go to the resort and will be directed to a local medical facility for further testing and/or quarantine. Pre-Arrival COVID-19 Test Requirement Given the social nature of our group and to add an extra layer of safety, Atlantis and Club Med are requiring COVID-19 testing both before your departure and upon arrival to the resort. This protocol has two direct benefits to you and our group. First, by testing before departure, you are significantly less likely to test positive upon arrival either at the airport or Club Med. We are trying to protect our guests from the unfortunate experience of a quarantine upon arrival.
