The school transport conveying 50 dozing high schoolers maneuvers into a rock parking area, joining a horde of transports and vans previously covering the edge of a huge verdant field. An endless white line is painted on the short-cut grass denoting a path. It follows the outside of the territory, along the parking garage, adjacent to the street, here and there the slopes and valleys, and through little fixes of trees and brush at the furthest finish of the field. Football goal lines crown the peak of a slope out yonder and white wooden posts monitor the internal parts of the bends of the white line. As the transport driver kills the engine, the young ladies start to mix and sit upstanding in their seats. They wipe the dabs of buildup from within the windows and look outside, engrossing this wonderful view. A couple of start to converse with the individual sitting close to them. Others stretch and let so anyone can hear moans. T his is the morning they have been planning for since the late spring months: toward the beginning of today, this very gathering of young ladies will attempt to substantiate themselves as the most noteworthy positioning, quickest running crosscountry group in western Pennsylvania. Before long, this quiet field will be surpassed by multitudes of mentors, sprinters, guardians, and authorities. As the morning proceeds onward, an ever increasing number of individuals assemble around the tents that have sprung up between territories of the course. After around two hours of planning, the groups begin assembling close to the beginning line for the principal race. First to run are the boysââ¬â¢ JV groups, followed forty minutes after the fact by boysââ¬â¢ varsity. And afterward itââ¬â¢s my turn. Mentor LeDonne accumulates the entirety of the young ladies on the JV group around him before our duck-y... ... that I gave as a lot to the group today as some other young lady strolling in those entryways with me. What's more, at that point I understand that I contributed an equivalent add up to the triumph as the principal sprinter or the fourth sprinter, or the keep going sprinter in my group. Maybe running is my optional obligation for the group. Perhaps it is similarly significant that I helped Amy push up that slope in her race as it is significant that I completed my own race with a normal individual time in mine. Despite the fact that the group in general may esteem speed over each other quality, I understand that it isnââ¬â¢t essentially the most significant for each sprinter. The group would never run well without a consistent help, a push from behind to run up the steepest slope. I was never intended to be the quickest sprinter in the group. In any case, I could in any case have that equivalent significance by being a glad, strong individual from the group.

While finals time is a stressful part of the semester, I have discovered that there are ways I am able to limit the amount of stress that I am under (even if it is just a teeny tiny bit) so that finals dont feel like some huge dark cloud looming over my head. With this being my third year of college finals, hereâs what Iâve learned (or am trying to learn at least) NOT to do during finals. Do not sacrifice your sleep. Crunch time would be an understatement when describing the amount of work I always end up needing to do and focus on during finals. I often times feel like thereâs never a moment of rest or relaxation and that every moment of the day should be spent writing a paper, studying for an exam, doing something for work, or writing another paper. Not mention that somehow I have to find the time to clean my apartment and pack for winter break at the same time. A girl is tired. While this is still a lesson that I am trying to learn and commit to, I know that all of those tasks I just listed will go by much smoother, quicker and be of higher quality if I make getting enough sleep a priority. Now, Iâm not perfect at doing this. At all. But itâs important that I continuously remind myself that going to bed at a decent time will not harm my grades. Even more importantly, getting enough sleep enables me to not burn out as easily and focus more on the tasks that do need to get done. Donât think of prioritizing sleep as a waste of time, think of it as a tool that aids you in managing your time better. Planning to get a full 8 hours of sleep every night is an excellent way to plan your study and work hours around the rest of your schedule to make sure that you are using all of your time in the wisest and healthiest ways possible. Do not âdrink water for dinner.â There just never seems to be enough time during finals! With all of the studying and work that needs to be done during finals, it is unfortunately easy to get caught up studying for hours without food or even convincing yourself that not eating is âworth itâ because of the better grade youâll earn. The reality is that not eating only decreases your ability to focus while studying. Your body needs food to function and risking your health for finals is not worth the damage you could cause to your body. So eat up! Donât neglect other things that make you happy. Hard work and a dedication to your studies is important during finals, but so is your happiness. A happy and healthy mind is essential to preventing burnout from studying. Donât deprive yourself of going for a run, taking a trip to the mall, reading a book, or watching your newest TV show craze during finals time. Giving yourself a break every day is a way to ensure that youâll be able to come back to your work with a refreshed mind and keep your stress levels as low as possible. Donât think that your final grades are the end of the world. So you get your final grades back and theyâre not what you hoped and worked for. While disappointing, remember that this happens to everyone. Youâre not some rare college student who didnât manage to get straight Aâs. All that we can really ask of ourselves is to try our best in our classes, and our best will always look different in each class and each phase in our lives. Itâs important to not give unsatisfactory grades more attention than they deserve. If you canât change your grade, allow yourself to accept it instead. You know that you did your best and that is what is really important. No one can ever be upset with you trying your bestâ"including yourself. studying Taylor Class of 2021 Hey yâall, Iâm a History and Gender and Women Studies double major and a French minor from Chicago!

When comparing the average model and the American woman, it is stated by Dr. Jonathon Rader, PhD, chief executive and clinical officer of Rader Programs that ââ¬Å"twenty years ago, the average fashion model weighed 8% less than the average woman. Today, she weighs 23% lessâ⬠(Rader). Twenty to thirty years ago, full figured women were accepted and also admired. Being voluptuous was a sign of wealth and beauty. Women were not obsessed with diet fads, or trying to look a certain way, but were more concerned with eating healthy and were comfortable with theâ⬠¦show more contentâ⬠¦Girls are indoctrinated at a very young age that the well known Barbie doll is how a woman is supposed to look, which includes no fat, but large breasts, and due to that false view of a womanââ¬â¢s body, it is more than likely that young girls today will approach puberty with a negative body image. Although children can develop eating disorders as early as 6 years old, it is typically the teen years where it becomes out of control. Dr. Jonathon Rader says that ââ¬Å"more than half of teenaged girls are, or think they should be, on diets. They want to lose all or some of the forty pounds that females naturally gain between 8 and 14. About three percent of these teens go too far, becoming anorexic or bulimicâ⬠(Rader). Almost everyone has heard of the terms ââ¬Å"anorexicâ⬠and ââ¬Å"bulimicâ⬠whether it was on TV or in a magazine, but not many people know the true facts and dangers that go along with them. They also might not even realize that there are other types of eating disorders that people are dealing with, some of which are not even specified. Exactly what are eating disorders?

Answer: Introduction Sustainability is one of the important concepts in achieving distinguished status. A company that is following sustainability at workplace shows distinguished performance when compared to the other organizations. Sustainable activities provide a high yield through remarkable performance guiding in developing business strategy. These activities are well-coordinated to develop an integrated business environment (Need.2006). It is not an add-on but a vital part for a company to succeed. The human resource function is responsible for managing the people in an organization. HR personnel play an important role in managing sustainability. HR role is to imbibe sustainability in whole business processes to increase productivity. His role in sustainability is changing at a rapid speed. There function includes uniquely positioning the implementation and sustainable strategy within an organization. 82% of the HR executives believe that sustainability has a positive impact on the corporate profit s. There is a need to cultivate a positive technology to align HR process with the goals of the organization. However it is easy to incorporate sustainability planning in a well-established business organization but at times it is difficult to implement it in a newly established organization. The main purpose of introducing sustainability in HR is to improve workforce lifecycle (Kazlauskaite Buciuniene, 2008). HR role in developing strategy and advancing sustainability It is essential for an organization to develop a sustainable strategy in every business function. The HR function is to formulate the plan in order to achieve environmental and social goals. It is the duty of the HR to balance the objectives with the given traditions to match the financial performance. The HR function includes serving as a partner while determining the requirements to develop corporate strategy for an organization (Boudreau Ramstad, 2005). Moreover a HR has to ensure that the employees implement the strategy in consistent with the organization. Sustainable human resource management is an important concept used by the HR to create a healthy environment at the workplace while motivating the employees about the organization needs (Ehnert Harry, 2012). A HR has a duty to encourage the employees through a comprehensive training program, assisting employees I finding an appropriate process to access different activities, designing the companys HRM structure in order to p romote equity and well-being and lastly contributing towards long-term employment security in order to avoid disruption (Dao, Langella Carbo, 2011). Sustainable HRM is about taking responsibility of the HR function in an organization. Modern organizations are driven by sustainability consideration. The HR function has to consider various factors to raise its own decision. The HR manager has to enable sustainability by building healthy relationship with the stakeholders. Sustainability has become an indispensable part in an organization. It is the duty of the HR manager to ensure sustainability and develop a strong mechanism in order to strengthen the internal process (Inyang, Awa Enuoh, 2011). Research has indicated that sustainable HRM contributes toward simulating economic, environmental and social goals. It is well reported that HR functions like selection, communicating, training and reward function can only be achieved if sustainability is achieved. The term green HRM is emerging in the society which clearly mentions the necessity of sustainability at workplace. They are using creative measures to reduce the total amount of wastage occurring in the whole process. Sustainable HRM is critical for the employee engagement and motivating tem to increase the overall yield. Top level encouragement is necessary to motivate the employees. Adopting sustainable development as an approach gives a positive message about the organization. This help in increasing the pool of qualified workers (Ehnert, Harry Zink, 2013). This will reduce the overall training cost given to the employees and enhance a better financial bottom. The role of sustainable HRM is to achieve the goals in order to examine trust and clarity for achieving social sustainability. This will help the company to address wider problems in the society. This will help in ensuring external rights, safety measures and mage high labor standards. HR can use the roadmap to make contribution towards the sustainability. The HR managers should use the international standards to frame the policies at the workplace in order to align them properly (Taylor, Egri O sland, 2010). Recommendations It is suggested that the HR manager should keep a proper file of each employee including all information. All the necessary forms related to the employment need to be kept carefully by the HR in order to manage the information. This should include the information related the staff of the first hospital at the lower, middle and senior level. He should check whether the employees had signed every document carefully or not. The HR manger should not miss even the minute information. The information mentioned in the form should be cross verified in order to check veracity (Mariappanadar, 2012). Develop a revised employee handbook It is advised to develop an employee handbook that mentions information about the employee. It includes the information related to Hospitals policies, procedures and benefits. The outline related to human resource practices need to be mentioned explaining the expectation. The content of the handbook depends upon the size of the hospital. It is the responsibility of the management to review the handbook timely in order to check that the information it contain is proper and updated. The management needs to ensure that every employee has the handbook so that they have information about the hospital culture (Mandip, 2012). The duties of each employee need to be given in the job description. The employer and the employee should have a copy of the job description and it needs to be signed by the employee. The job description is an important part of HR process which includes hiring, orientation and performance management. The job description describes the duty of every individual; it is recommended that the HR manager should review the job description which depends upon the performance evaluation (Ehnert, 2006). Proper interview/hiring process and training procedure There is a necessity to develop a proper hiring process to ensure that the best people are selected. The HR manager should ensure that the qualified employees need to be chosen while hiring the staff. The interviewer should have proper knowledge in order to imply his knowledge carefully. Behavioral interviewing skills are important for hiring qualified staff. The interviewer must be able to retrieve information related to the employees skills and past experience. The interviewer must be properly trained as they represent the organization. Proper training in advance helps in providing better information to the interviewee. This is necessary for an organization to provide ample of information in advance. Training process is an integral process of HRM. Training employees help in communicating ethos of the organization. Revise the performance evaluation program There should be an excellent performance evaluation process to create a win-win situation. Employees need to be given feedback on their performance. Positive feedback will motivate them to perform nicely. The HR manager needs to stay in touch with the employee to provide them with a positive feedback (Sharma, Sharma Devi, 2011). It is necessary to understand that employer should evaluate the overall performance of the employee. It can be a difficult task to evaluate the performance of the employees. Conducting employee evaluation helps in improving the performance of the individual employee this will leads to overall improvement. A HR is a link who works as an efficient force in between the organization and the employees (App, Merk Bttgen, 2012). Corporate Strategy It is essential for HR to see the impact on the sustainability programs in a way it motivates the people working in the organization. This will help in managing the overall sustainability strategy of the organization. Creating a managing an effective sustainability will help the organization to bring consideration. The corporate strategy must deliver the ethos of the organization while including each function. This will help in developing strong HR policies and create a sustainable environment in the organization. Modern organizations are very complex in nature which is difficult to be understood. The whole world has become a global hub where people interact to each other. The world business is working in co-ordination with each other in order to provide systematic solution to the organization. Modern business organizations work under cut-throat competition and it has become important for them to perform well. Sustaining in the global competitive environment has become a difficult fo r the multinational companies. It is necessary to keep a specialized competitive advantage in order to outperform. The requirements related to recruitment depend upon the market. They completely depend upon the future strategies of the organization. Corporate strategies of the company help in determining the future recruitment trends (Bratton Gold, 2012). Employee motivation and appraisal Appraisal programmes are one of the most important ways of motivating the employees. The performance appraisal plays an important role which will help in developing the training and development programme. Induction programme is important for the organization to motivate the employees in a positive direction. It helps in achievement of goals led by the individual and the organization. Motivated employees help in enhancing the overall productivity whereas organizations that do not run motivational programme at workplace fails to perform. A friendly and flexible environment at the workplace helps in attaining high degree of satisfaction. Organizational leverage sustainability Todays organizations need to make strict decision related to business to justify expenditure. It is difficult to determine ROI for sustainable related activities. It is not an easy task for the organizations to find outcomes based on measurement tools. Sustainability is a persistent practice carried in the organizations to achieve the desired results strategically. It will be difficult for an organization to achieve sustainable outcome without the support of the executive machinery. It is necessary for executive-level employees to achieve sustainability. Organizations can leverage sustainability to attract business in order to engage employees at every level. Demands of people are changing everyday and the role of HR is becoming Vital for the growth of the organization (Kramar, 2014). There is a need of a strategic approach to incorporate a performance culture in the organization. Performance can only be attained if every function of the organization works in coordination which will result in an enhanced productivity. A HR has to build a time based strategy to ensure flexibility to the employees so that they can feel free to interact. Information based strategy helps in sharing information through intranet. Communication is important for an organization to sustain. It is necessary to build a comprehensive communication structure in order to communicate at different level. It is the duty of the HRM department to create the Business Case and to Impact the Bottom Line. The HR should make contribution towards corporate sustainability in order to make a positive difference in the working of the organization. It is recommended that the HR manager need to improve the workforce cycle which includes recruiting hiring, training, evaluation, promotion, career development and retention of top talent. Attaining high level efficiency is important to attain productivity and profits. It is necessary to enable organizational ethos while enabling changes.

During the 70s, when Michael was very young and in grade school, the Boston busing crisis began. The Boston government began busing kids to schools in different neighborhoods, in an attempt to desegregate schools. This caused mass outrage in many areas, especially Southie. Outside of Southie and the projects, society expected people accept these changes and to accept the desegregation. But in Michaelââ¬â¢s community, everybody was against this, and took violent actions against it. By both his family and his community, Michael was expected to be against the busing movements. As it would turn out, Michael was also against it. He went as far as to throw rocks at the buses coming into his town. He described it as shameful if you did not partake at least a little bit in the violent acts. We will write a custom essay sample on All Souls Essay or any similar topic specifically for you Do Not WasteYour Time HIRE WRITER Only 13.90 / page This example of the busing is a great example of how oneââ¬â¢s mind is influenced by others. Here, Michael can be influenced by one of two sides; larger ââ¬Å"outsideâ⬠society telling him to accept the busing, or his family and small community telling him to deny it. I feel as if no matter who or what, one is much more influenced by the ones closest to them, whether it be a close family or a close community. Michael describes in the book that at many points, it feels like itââ¬â¢s Southie vs. the World. And no matter what, as another member of the Southie community, Michael will side with his home.

The first goal that I would set in the process of achieving my desired career is to gain an entry level position in a reputed company that works in the investment banking domain. From there on, I would like to keep on learning new skills and enhancing my efficiency in the related area to ensure that I reach a higher position in the company. Moving up the management and corporate ladder can only be done by enforcing suitable discipline and motivation in my daily job role. Thus, the short term career goals would be to enhance my skills and capabilities, the medium term goal would be to look for a proper job in the investment banking sector and the long term goal would be to create a strong position for myself in the company that I would work in (Breannan, 2013). The current competencies and skills that I already possess are strong knowledge in finance and financial management. Also, my background of commerce studies is likely to help me in understanding the basic requirements related to investment banking in any company. I am good at crunching numbers, have sufficient interest in the domain of finance and investment and also possess much relevant knowledge of the banking industry through my college projects and internship experiences. Additionally, the fact that I have sufficient leadership skills, motivational skills and the ability to work in a group makes me a team player as well as a motivator (Schreuder, 2006). This can help me to gain entry into a company and subsequently create an influential position for myself in the same. I am also bestowed with good communication skills, fluency in multiple languages and public speaking, all of which I think would be useful for me at different phases of my career.

Pharmaceutical industry is highly competitive, and every step of functioning in this industry is governed by business process management to improve products and services to the customer with maximal efficiency. An efficient system must be usable, and people must be convinced about the usefulness of it. Thus the developmental journey must be people centric, where the trench people must not feel excluded. They need to be consulted, listened to, trained and communicated with on a regular basis. They must understand the business process and its benefits. Conviction of people about the reasons of the process change, the necessity of it would promote them to take ownership and responsibility. The organisational structure would enable that. The organisational structure and culture are important parameters and preconditions for fostering an environment where people would understand clearly what is expected of them and how they are significant in the new structure and process (Morrill, 2008). There are many components in the structure and culture. The components are logically connected in such a way that there is a meaningful concept of fitment among the different components of organisational struc ture and the cultural settings. In the stated organisation, the decision makers implement change processes interpret and utilise the environmental culture to shape the organisational structure. Sometimes depending on the situation, a double-loop change process is utilised where within the organisational structure, the members of one culture impose their favoured structures on organisational members coming from different cultures. Sometimes, again depending on the situation, the organisational hierarchy utilises the naturally socially constructed organisational structure and culture (Walsh, 2004). Mission and Aim of Organisation and Effects on Structure and Culture The objective and aim of the organisation has important impacts on its culture and structure. If by organisational structure we mean formalisation and centralisation and if organisational culture means participative decision making, support and collaboration, and learning and development, both must interrelate. The aim and objective of this organisation is to produce innovative pharmaceutical products, and thus it means technological processes, administrative control, and product manufacturing. Studies by Jantan et al. (2003) have shown that both participation in decision making and support and collaboration and learning and development have demonstrable positive effects on administrative innovation. Although structural variables appear to be unaffected, they may affect the cultural variables (Jantan et al., 2003). Bate et al. (2000) highlights the role of aims and goals of an organisation in shaping the structure and Falkonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03656619754557573455noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3809345519239494791.post-51411410160918057652020-01-27T23:09:00.001-08:002020-01-27T23:09:04.823-08:00Security And Confidentiality On The Internet Information Technology EssaySecurity And Confidentiality On The Internet Information Technology Essay On 9th of November 2009 The Internet teacher requested 3000 word report related to the FETAC Internet module. This report was to be submitted by 14th of January2010. The topic of the report is Security and Confidentiality on the Internet with reference to cookies, viruses, encryption, digital signatures, firewalls, filtering software and personal privacy. Recommendations were requested. 2. Method of Procedure I found most of the information on the internet. In order to obtain the relevant information, I used Google Search Engine with keywords in English: Internet Security, Privacy on the Internet, Malware, Computer Viruses, Cookies, Firewalls, Filtering Software, Encryption, Digital Signatures, Computer Protection, Threats on the Internet. Keywords in Lithuanian: Privatumas Internete, Saugumas Intenete, Kompiuteriniai Virusai, UgniasienÃâ-s, Filtravimo PrgraminÃâ- Ãâà ®ranga, Ãâ¦Ã ifravimas, Skaitmeninis ParaÃâ¦Ã ¡as, Pavojai Internete. Also, some printed sources of information such as books and a periodical press in English and Lithaunian were adopted. Several pages for each topic were checked to confirm that the information was correct and fully understud. That hepled me to make conclusions and to give recommendations. 3. Findings 3.1 Importance of Subject With the progress of affordable technology more of us store more and more of our life in bits and bytes. By the end of 2009 there was more than 1,5 billion Internet users in 260 countries on every continent. The Internet is not a single network, but a vast array of connected networks situated all over the world, easily accessible by personal computers, notebooks, netbooks, smartphones, PDAs, game consoles, advanced TVs, same photo cameras or even kitchen appliances as hi-tech fridges and microwaves in a variety of ways. Today, the Internet uses gateways, routers, broadband connections, Wi-Fi spots and Internet service providers (ISPs) to make itself available at all times. Individuals and organizations worldwide can reach almost any point on the network without regard to national or geographic boundaries or time of day, there is some exceptions regarding to Internet censorship. Nowadays, it become hard to find the business without any connection to the Internet, because of its excellent source of marketing, convenience, high speed, low cost, and almost unlimited possibilities. Institutions of education, hospitals, banks, institutions of public service, providers of mobile service and internet, utility companies and of course our government has our personal information on their computers and they are connected to the Internet. With the birth of Social Networking Sites such as Bebo, Facebook, MySace, Twitter ect., we sharing our pictures, personal details, our thoughts and lives with friends and if we are not careful with everybody on the Internet. Just Facebook on its own has more than 400 million users. Even more, with new generation of Internet- Cloud Computing, individuals and business users are storing less data on their hard drives and more in the cloud- remote servers, operated by giants like Google and Amazon. However, while using the Internet, along with the convenience and speed of access to information come new risks. Among them are the risks that valuable information will be lost, stolen, corrupted, or misused and that the computer systems will be corrupted. If information is recorded electronically and is available on networked computers, it is more vulnerable than if the same information is printed on paper and locked in a file cabinet. Intruders do not need to enter an office or home, and may not even be in the same country. They can steal or tamper with information without touching a piece of paper or a photocopier. They can create new electronic files, run their own programs, and even hide all evidence of their unauthorized activity. So if we are closing and locking the door in our house to prevent criminals gain access to our valuables, we must take care of our house and life in the digital world and use all possible security and privacy on the Internet measures against the threats. WORLD INTERNET USAGE AND POPULATION STATISTICS World Regions Population ( 2009 Est.)

Most security breaches are not done by technology, but by social engineering. In security, people is the most risky factor of all, yet its the one thing thats often forgotten. A company may setup firewalls, security software, locks and fingerprint scanners, but if they forget to establish and enforce a well designed security policy, they have forgotten the most important part. The easiest way to get a password from someone is just to ask! In more likely situations, an attacker may simply call random people and pretend they are a tech support person trying to fix a problem, and ask for confidential information as part of the diagnostic. Pretexting Pretexting is the way of stealing information by providing just a little bit of known information, and pretending to be someone youre not. Thats how identity thieves can call banks and, after a few tries, by simply providing basic information about the target, get all the data they want. Phishing Phishing is when you receive an email that looks like its from your bank, Paypal, online shop or another secure site you use, and asking you to login to confirm your information. It works in this way: the criminals sets up a website which looks like the genuine one and then sends phishing email to thousands of people, until they find somebody. Then when the person tries to login, his login information is intercepted by the bad guys and used to steal valuable information. Malware Malicious programs, especially Key loggers can record what keys on the keyboard you are pressing when login to secure websites, to obtain your username and password. Often Key loggers are incorporated together with Trojan Viruses, programs which pretends to be useful software i.e. antivirus or computer maintenance programs, to send stolen information to the criminals. Privacy threats on Social Networking Sites Internet users have to be very careful with the private information that they share on the web. Internet is becoming very popular way to communicate with people. Most people who give too much of private information about themselves arent aware about the risks they taking. There are people who can pretend to be your friends, gain information and use this information against you for blackmailing, psychological terror or for access to secure private pages. Conclusions and Recommendations The offenders are always inventing new methods to steal private information. We have to be aware about that, constantly refresh our knowledge about security and existing scam schemes and take all possible security measures by using trusted up to date security software. Never click a link in an email from unknown sender, never download from an untrusted source, and always type in the address of your financial sites to access them. Need to avoid to disclose sensitive information online especially to the people we dont know very well. Also we have to remember that these attacks also can be done offline. Most identity thefts are done by people simply going through rubbish bins and getting confidential data that was thrown out, like a bank statements, invoices, payslips ect. We cant do much to secure our personal data collected and stored by businesses and institutions which can also be stolen or misused, just hope that they will take same good care as we do. 3.3 Cookies What are Cookies? Cookies are a piece of text that a web server sends to web browser and are stored on a users hard disk. Main purpose of cookies is to help prepare customized web pages with our settings, interests, browsing habits. It works in similar way to loyalty cards i.e. if we bought a book in Amazon internet shop, next time when we come back to Amazon first it will offer similar books to our purchase. Cookies do not act maliciously on computer systems. They are text files that can be deleted at any time. Cookies cant be used to spread viruses. But because any personal information that we gave to a web site will be stored in a cookie some people can accept it as a threat to privacy and anonymity. To prevent misuse of information in the cookie if its stolen, information in the cookie is encrypted. How do They Work? When we visit a site that uses cookies, it can ask the browser to place one or more cookies on the visitors hard drive. It will contain our name and password, fill in form i.e. delivery addresses and basically what we do in the page. Next time, when we come back to the site the web browser sends back the cookies that belong to the site and then we will see personalized Web page with our details. Generally cookies help us to save a little bit of time. And we always have possibility to switch it off, however internet shopping web pages requires cookies to accesses them. How Could I Prevent/Manage Cookies? If we want to delete cookies we have to follow these steps: Internet Explorer: Tools /Internet options/Security /Set security level to high or custom level/Cookies/Disable. Mozilla Firefox: Tools/Options/Privacy/Cookies/Uncheck/Allow sites to set cookies Other options are to use designated Cookie Managing software or to use advanced Antivirus programs which also have the option to control cookies, to block cookies that we dont want and save only the cookies that we want. Conclusions and Recommendations I think that cookies are useful because we can get personalized information to read, do not spend time on security questions where it is necessary to enter a password, we dont have to spend time filling up same forms. Cookies do not collect information saved in the computer, it can contain only private data that we give to a website on our own free will. And if we dont want some cookies we are able to remove them from computer when we want. Some websites such as internet banking, e-shops and similar are impossible to use properly without allowing the cookies. 3.4 Viruses What is a Virus? Computer viruses are small malicious program codes, which are designed by using various techniques to hide themselves inside the executable files. Their aim is to replicate, spread between the computers using removable media or network and to interfere with computer operation: slowing down computer, damaging or deleting data, disturbing users and wasting time by showing annoying massages. Virus can be classified by several characteristic: depend on the origin, on the way how they infect computer, on the place where they hide, on the damage that they can cause However, the computer virus is only one type of the malicious software or malware, but majority of computer users referring to all malicious programs (Trojan horses, worms, rootkits, spyware etc.) as the viruses. Type of Virus Different viruses can have many common characteristics and constantly appearing viruses with new specifications or combinations. Resident Virus. Loads the replication module into RAM memory when is executed, after this virus can infect all files that are accessed by user or operating system. If the antivirus program fails to spot the virus in the RAM it can infect all scanned files. FAT Virus. The File Allocation Table is a fundamental element in the system it works like an index, keeping information where is the files stores on the hard disk drive (HDD), which sectors are empty etc. If this vital index is destroyed by virus, it makes impossible for computer to locate files. It also can overwrite the files or entire directories corrupting them permanently. Sometimes the only solution to fix the computer affected by FAT virus is to format hard disk drive. Huge downside of this is that all information on HDD will be permanently erased. Virus of Direct-Action. Sometimes referred as Non-Resident Virus, they are unlike to resident virus, not loading in to RAM memory. They try to infect the programs and cause damage at the moment of execution of infected file. Most of viruses are Resident. Overwriting Virus. Most destructible type of virus, it overwrites the information in the infected files corrupting them permanently. If you dont have the back-up copy of your files its a bad news because the only way to get rid of this type of virus is to delete infected files. Boot Virus. Also known as System Virus. These viruses infect critical section with boot code on hard disk or another bootable media storage that helps to start computer. When the computer starts up and the boot virus is launched, it can take complete control over infected computer and does everything it wants (steal private information, delete system files etc.) Clean bootable antivirus software required to disinfect the system. However depend on the virus this solution is not enough to clean bootable sector. Macro Virus. Macros are micro-programs associated with a file that serve to automate joint complexes of operation. Macro virus expand from applications which use macro, word document (file with extension .doc),Excel (file with extension .xls) data of Access (file with extension .mdb), Power point (file with extension .pps). When we open a file containing a virus of this type of macros are automatically loaded causing the infection. Most applications that use macros have, but many macro viruses easily circumvent this protection. Multipartite Virus.Very advanced type of virus that can perform multiple infections combining different techniques. These viruses are considered very dangerous, for its ability to combine many techniques of infection and harmful effects of their actions. File Virus. Infect programs or executable files (files with extension .ex and .com) when run the infected program, the virus becomes active, producing different effects. The majority of exiting viruses are of this type. Logic Bombs.Neither virus is considered strictly as they do not reproduce. They are not separate programs, but hides in an unmarked segment within another program.They aim to destroy the data on a computer or cause other significant damage on it when certain conditions are met. While this does not happen, no one notices the presence of the logic bomb. Its action can be extremely destructive. Trojan Virus.Trojan arent considered virus, because they dont replicate themselves. Trojans are commonly hidden in the programs that appliers to be useful, but instead opens unauthorized access to users computer. Trojans also can be installed thorough web pages with executable content (ActiveX control), email attachements. The effects of the Trojan can be very dangerous, allowing remote control from other computer (downloading, uploading, modifying or deleting files), installing key loggers and other malware, connecting computer to botnet (sending SPAM messages, perform network DDos attacks). How can computers become infected and what damage can cause? Viruses can infect computers through: Internet (email attachments, infected web pages, downloading infected files) Computer networks Removable Media Drives Virus Symptoms: The computer runs very slow Reduces the available memory The computer shuts down or freeze frequently There are programs which do not work or malfunction There is less free space on your hard disk Computer files disappear Strange messages appear on the screen. Some file are renamed or extended Conclusions and Recommendations Not everything that affects the normal functioning of a computer is a virus. Is very important to have means to detect and disinfect viruses use an antivirus program and update daily (use default settings). Scan all removable disks before use it and scan computer periodically at least once a week. 3.5 Firewall A firewall is a system that protects a computer or computer networks blocking unauthorized network access while permitting authorized communications. Firewall can be implemented in software, hardware or combination of both. Firewall is placed between protected and unprotected networks and acts as a gate to protect network or single computer, by inspecting network traffic, applying rules and allowing or denying connection. Firewall can use different techniques to do so: Packet filter (inspects every information packet passing through the network) Application gateway (applies rules to specific applications such as FTP, Telnet servers.) Circuit-level gateway(applies rules to TCP or UDP connections, when are made there is no further inspection.) Proxy Server (checks all network activity passing through network.) Conclusions and Recommendations Everyone should use a firewall against network intruders to protect computer and private information. Most of the antivirus programs and operating systems have integrated firewall software. Minor disadvantage of firewall, it can slow down Internet traffic and can be tricky for not advanced users to set-up it properly (not blocking traffic for useful programs). 3.6 Filtering Software The filtering software is designed to control what contents are allowed to be accessed on Internet. Often its installed on the computers of educational, government organizations, private companies. Filtering software is commonly used by parents to prevent their children from having access to certain web places unsuitable for minors. It also can be used as the mean of censorship in some countries. How does it work? Nowadays on the market there are many options of filtering software with various techniques and content filtering to prevent from harmful online material. The filtering programs works like that: Address blocking websites containing such content Controlling access times Accepting default address list Possible to establish your own list of addresses Assigning different profiles or different days and times(work, leisure, etc.) Controlling which services can be used at any time and for each user (mail, chat, etc.) Advantages and disadvantages of Filtering Software. Advantage of filtering software is that does not allow minor to access pages of violence, pornography, racism. In a work place it prevents employees of wasting their time and resources for personal proposes (chatting online, social network pages, etc.). Main disadvantage is over-zealous filtering. Par example, in some filters attempts to block the word sex would block words such as Essex and Sussex and etc. Internet censorship in some countries limits freedom of speech for different reasons and that is not a good thing. Some Filtering Software examples. Netnanny, Mobicop, DansGuard, CleanFeed,Web Sence 3.7 Encryption Its a method to convert the characters of a text that can not be understood unless it is read with the corresponding key. Used to protect the integrity of secret information if it is intercepted. Encryption is also used when data is sent via secure intranet (VSPN). Encryption is used for electronic commerce to protect credit card information. How does it work? The keys are the heart of the encryption. The keys are complex mathematical formulas (algorithms) used to encrypt and decrypt information. If someone encrypts a message, only one with the appropriate key can decrypt the message. Algorithms are used to perform a hash function. This process produces a unique MD5 for this message. The MD5 is encrypted with the senders private key resulting in a fingerprint. Conclusions and Recommendations Everyone who has and important or secret information (banks, hospitals, government, universities, e-commerce sites) they have to keep this information in secret from fraudsters. In recent years, it was few cases when portable computers of government organizations with secret information were lost or stolen. Laptops (portable computers) became more and more popular and most of us have some kind of personal information on our computers. So it is very important to have that information encrypted, in case of losing it. 3.8 Digital Signatures A set of data in electronic form attached to or associated with others which are used to identify the signatory, which allows you to check the provenance, authenticity and integrity of messages exchanged over the Internet. There are two types of electronic signatures: basic and advanced. The basic does not guarantee the identity of the signer, neither the veracity of information received since the sending does not ensure that the issuer has made it known to us, while the advanced signature identifies the signer and detect any subsequent change of data that could occur. The digital signature is a specific techology signature and created by the so-called System Asymmetric key cryptography and it works like that : The holder has two keys : public key and private key ,private key is only known to the issuer and is associated to the information you send .while the person who received only know their public key . Two keys are needed and complement each other to get the encrypted message appears as the original . When we want sent private information the information is encrypted by system which use mathematical operations so the information becames encripted ( strange numbers and letters) so the message only can be deciphered by the people who know the instruction and have a public key Conclusions and Recommendations It should be used by the organitations which have an important or secret information as banks, universities, hospitals, etc., these organitations should use digital signatures in order to avoid the risk of fraud .they have to be sure about the authenticy of the sender.

In the past corporal punishment included flogging, whipping, branding and facial or bodily mutilation of all types. Corporal punishment also refers to the discipline of children at home and in schools but it was made illegal for punishing schoolchildren in 1986. Historically, corporal punishment was used in the ancient law codes of Hammurabi and Moses, in laws of Sparta and other Greek city states, in early Christian church teachings and in Anglo-Saxon common laws. It is still used in many parts of the world and remains in the criminal codes of several European communities. In the twentieth century, corporal punishment has received severe criticism. Many people believe it is a barbaric relic of a bygone age, completely opposite with present day humanitarian ethics. With a rising crime rate many are favouring the reinstitution of physical punishment for very wicked crimes. It has been shown that many adults in England want the restoration of corporal punishment for certain crimes, hoping that it will effect the reaction against an ever increasing amount of crime. The use of corporal punishment on children has also dropped sharply. In many school systems of the United States, for example, corporal punishment has been outlawed, it is also illegal in countries such as Sweden, Finland, Denmark and Norway. Corporal punishment for certain offences is very effective, because it's done quickly and feared by all. Not only will it teach the offender not to repeat his violent actions but it will also discourage him. It teaches the school boy or convict that doing wrong will be followed by pain and suffering. When used justly and without anger the giver is not brutalised. In many independent schools where it still occurs it is thought of as a final punishment. It accustoms the pupils to the hardships of real life and no bitterness is left after it has been used for good reasons. It is always impossible to make the punishment fit the crime, with corporal punishment the amount can be adjusted to suit the offender. It is much better than other punishments which are deadening to the mind and the body. Schools which don't find corporal punishment essential, especially for young children, substitute it with other methods which are equivalent to terrorising. Detentions are also harmful because they increase the nu mber of hours a boy is forced to spend indoors in physical inactivity. His restlessness is increased by the enforced restraint which leads to further Falkonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03656619754557573455noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3809345519239494791.post-39129083343558828822020-01-11T15:54:00.001-08:002020-01-11T15:54:03.319-08:00Internet made the world a Global Village EssayGone are the days, when you had to wait for days or even hours to learn about news of some distant place an event taking place in one part of the world can be heard easily in the other. Perhaps, synchronization of such magnitude has really close-knitted this world together so much that it appears as a real single universal community comprising of different people. Thanks to technological improvements and the information revolution, the awareness is escalating rapidly; there are no more barriers between countries. Trade has increased and population movements between countries are greater than ever before. The term ââ¬Å"global villageâ⬠is used to describe a world in which people are not limited by the boundaries of nations and societies. The world today is largely interdependent and an occurrence in one part of the world has a bearing on other elements. Thus, today no one in the world can survive in isolation. The world has become integrated and undergone dramatic changes thanks to the rapid changes in technology and faster movement of information technology. The advent of printing press, telephone and telegraph connected millions of people living miles apart and made it possible to discuss new ideas instantaneously. Radio, internet and television brought the digital age into our living rooms. Satellite communications has had a tremendous impact on our lives and resulted in the increased penetration of mobile services, media and live telecasts. With the click of a button, we can tune into breaking news and entertainment from all over the world. An improvement in transportation has also facilitated the exchange of ideas and people. People are able to travel more easily and travel all around the world. Today, it is common to find people commuting from one city to another for work. In fact many people choose to migrate to a new country in search of better work and social life opportunities. New generation of fuel-efficient trains, planes and other modes of traveling have helped develop the tourism industry. The growth of this industry resulted in the exchange of cultures, knowledge and new ideas for greater progress and harmony. As the world has become shorter in distance, people have found it easier to trade and share the fruits of progress. Businesses all around the world are actively engaged in importing and exporting items to capitalize on each otherââ¬â¢s strengths and pass on the benefits to the consumer. Although, the world has come a long way in becoming more accessible and connected in terms of information, it is still far away from the idealistic situation. To call it truly a global village we must ensure that all regions of the world grow at a uniform pace and a more humane behavior is inculcated in members of different communities and regions. Without this, the world would seem alien to people from the areas lagging behind in progress. Internet: In the 21st century, Internet has been widely used by everyone around the world, and is closely related to our everyday life. The development of Internet has made our world smaller. For instance, like Skype this kind of online free telephone saves our money, we no longer need to worry about our expensive phone bills. It draws people from different places in the world closer. The most significant thing is that it has a positive influence on us, and that people are more willing to keep in touch or communicate with others who are far away from them. Internet has made our world into a global village, it draws everyone closer. Internet can have lots of positive influence on us IF we use it correctly. We can use it to share our works online, or we can search for lots of useful information that we need. However, if we use Internet incorrectly, it will then have a negative influence on us. For instance, going out with someone you met on the Internet without knowing who they actually are. Also, the existence of Internet crime syndicate can be a negative influence on us, like some people might want to be like them because they make lots of money. The most common negative influence of Internet on us is that lots of students got addicted to online games, blog, etc. Thus they are not concentrated in their school works, not doing their job as being a student. Also, wasting more time with Internet as a replacement for of what they are believed to do. It is not only students who are like that; some office workers also got negative influence by Internet. Globalization: Globalization gives the people many motivations for serving poor countries: compassionate, supporting, and political and financially. The reason for which many countries have to help poorer ones may be a question of global security. Due to the interconnectedness of the societies, difficult situations such as conflicts, famines in poor countries influence and jeopardize the security in rich countries like the United States and the European Union. As a result, the troubles of the poor and emergent nations become the dilemma of the urban and wealthy nations of the world. The threats are multiple such as terrorism, trafficking, environmental destruction and disease. As these threats are impending, governments of developed countries take more responsibility for helping the poorer nations for a safer world. Security of the richer and developed nations is based on the development of these poor nations. Improved and up-to-date technology is coming in from developed nations to the developing nations this helps in improving quality of the products made in these countries and it also helps improve constant effectiveness. Though globalization has its positive facets it has some downsides to it. Billions of inhabitants still live in shortage and the space connecting rich and poor at an international level is getting bigger. It is said globalization directs to subordinate buy and sell barriers but the previously poor and developing states are not able to take benefit of the lessening of these trade obstacles, globalization in a way presents urbanized nations with a means of access way to come in hooked on the developing nations with more simplicity and also do trade more freely, it essentially forces out the confined competition for they are not able to gather up with the principles of the products of the urbanized nations. Globalization brings in products that are superior is quality and low in cost as compared to those produced by these developing nations which are not able to produce similar to these, this takes away trade opportunities from these developing nations which was otherwise possible between the developing nations. This leads rising the affluence gap among the urban and mounting inhabitants even more. Internet made the world a ââ¬Å"Global Villageâ⬠: Globalization, a rising experience that can be illustrated as a ââ¬Å"change in the direction of a more incorporated and mutually supporting worldââ¬â¢s financial systemâ⬠, (Valeria Gennaro Lerda, 2002) has been the focus of numerous books and deliberations for the long-ago decade. Along with the improvement of microprocessors, the Internet is conceivably the most momentous technological modernization of our time, playing an extensive role in the development of globalization. The Internet assisted the development of the movement headed for a global village through the formation of cheaper, quicker and easier means of communication, the stipulation of an enormous collection of information, and the increase of e-commerce. The Internet offers a cheaper, more rapidly and easier technique of communication, a substitute that has shaped a ââ¬Å"universal audienceâ⬠, as stated by Renato Ruggiero, director general of the World Trade Organization. (Seoul 1997) In evaluating the cost of extended distance phone calls against that of online voice chat the Internet is much more reasonable and also better in excellence. Many web clients now acquire web cameras, microphones, and all the software compulsory to sustain this hardware. This permits users to talk, see, and be seen by the individual they are having a dialogue with. People from Asia can carry discussions with Europeans, Americans or Africans at the similar time, at no additional cost on Msn Messenger, Yahoo Messenger, or MIRC. Communication is also quicker online. An e-mail is mailed and expected by the other party in seconds, as contrasting to regular mail, which may take months to accomplish its destination when sent over the ocean. Thus, citizens all over the earth can reside in touch on a normal basis, converse online on a daily basis and even share documents. When factoring in the easiness of use of the Internet, it is simple to observe why so many persons have a preference communicating this way. All that is mandatory is typing, an ability easily mastered throughout frequent use of the keyboard. Also, the Internet provides an interesting communication with another individual, as ample of illustrations and things and emoticons go together with the software. The affordability, tempo, and handiness of the Internet are the reasons that account for the formation of this ââ¬Å"global audienceâ⬠. People all over the world are associated to the same association at the same time with the right to use to the same collection of information. This enormous amount of information being accessed by everyone connected to the Internet is in itself a powerful tool in the development of globalization. Anybody can produce a website and put pen to paper no matter what portion of information they aspire. Books, magazines, newspapers, and editorials are shared globally. Video clips, PowerPoint presentations and various materials can be viewed online and used for different purposes. This creates a form of optimistic multiculturalism, where any person with the right to use to the Internet can communicate local, ethnic, religious, and national beliefs to a worldwide and international audience. Consequently, an all-purpose homogenization or ââ¬Å"internationalizationâ⬠of traditions took place, supporting Western urbanized homelands, their verbal communication and principles, yet escorted by an understanding of a consequential strength or evaporation of confined and underground civilization. This worldwide diffusion of dominant Western and American cultures who are globalized through ownership of production and infrastructure gives ââ¬Å"globalizationâ⬠a negative connotation often termed hegemony, cultural imperialism, or Americanization by members of underdeveloped countries and by individuals who feel that their country and belief systems are threatened by English-speaking nations. The paradox of global localization is also created when local identity politics becomes a global issue through the Internet. Thus, more and more ââ¬Å"local identity groups are using the technologies of globalization to promote their political interestsâ⬠. An example is the Taliban in Afghanistan with a website, www. talibanreunited. com, containing alleged terrorist information. Thus, as Benjamin Barber mentioned, ââ¬Å"the world is becoming more and more divided into two cultural, political, and economic camps: homogenized transnational consumerist capitalism now extended to global information, communication, and entertainment and fragmented tribal identity wars by groups rejecting transnational and international influencesâ⬠(Barber, 1996). This consumerist capitalism is in part driven by e-commerce. E-commerce, a huge element of the globalization observable fact, now comprises a familiar dealing practice. The Web permits production, both little and outsized, to get bigger as a global occurrence at a subordinate cost than ever before. Business can sell their goods and services online cheaper, as the tertiary step in production is eliminated. Consequently, companies acquire a superior worldwide coverage by setting up a business website with the arrangement of products presented, cost, and resources of acquisition. The Internet allows companies to gain access to large international markets, build a wide customer base, and generate more revenue. Financial transactions that take place over the Internet requiring credit card information and other sensitive data require an effective implementation of security measures. To prevent loss and interception of data by a third party, encryption of sensitive information, a very complicated process involving keys, data encryption algorithms and various standards, must be put in place. The minimize the threat of viruses, loss or destruction of vital data, antivirus software must be installed and updated on a regular basis, also a backup of important files must be made. The Web formulates it a lot easier for customers and brokers to come across each other, everywhere they may be positioned and no matter what their size. This was the case for an undersized California-based establish, Cardiac Science, which constructs defibrillators and heart monitors. In 1996, Cardiac Science was very restless to smash into intercontinental marketplace but had slight idea of how to set up an international occurrence. By 1998, the business was advertising to clients in 46 countries and overseas transactions accounted for 85 percent of its $1. 2 million revenues. Even though a part of this trade was developed all the way through export channels, an increasing proportion of it came from ââ¬Å"hitsâ⬠to the companyââ¬â¢s website, which, according to the companyââ¬â¢s CEO, ââ¬Å"creates a center of attention of international business citizens like bees to honeyâ⬠(Hill, 2004). Therefore, the Internet has proven to be the most significant and fastest growing technical innovation today. In 1990, smaller quantity than 1 million consumers was associated to the Internet. The number had increased to 50 million, by the year 1995. In 2001, it raised to 490 million. By the year 2005, it is forecasted that the Internet may have over 1. 12 billion users, which is comparable to 18 percent of the worldââ¬â¢s inhabitants (Miniwatts Marketing Group, 2008). The notion of a ââ¬Å"global villageâ⬠is becoming a reality more so than ever and the Internet played a significant role in its expansion. The inexpensive, fast and easy means of communication it provides, coupled with the medium it creates for optimistic multiculturalism, where everyone has access to the same pool of information and is free to share personal beliefs, have created a global audience, where everyone knows exactly what is going on everywhere in the world and is free to communicate at any time. E-commerce takes the Internet from the consumer level and advances it to allow financial and business transactions to take place between businesses and consumers and businesses to businesses without a middleman, and without having to go to the store to buy goods. Web sites like for instance Amazon and e-bay and have become very popular for their cheap products and convenient shipping. Taking these factors into consideration, the Internet had a very large impact on globalization and will continue to shape the growing ââ¬Å"global villageâ⬠for years to come. Conclusion: With the volatile enlargement in Internet links worldwide, networked communication has the prospective to reduce the size of geographic distances and smooth the progress of information trade among citizens of various surroundings. Telecommunications strategy in the US and other countries determines to extend access to all levels of society, assuming that this will foster greater information exchange while enhancing financial growth. Authorized by information technology such as search engines and automatic filters, IT clients are spending more of their waking hours hooked into the Internet, deciding to work together with information foundations modified to their individual benefits. No longer limited to resources or friends in their geographic areas, these users portend an interactive world without limitations. The distances between places have been reduced and the internet has played a major part in it especially through the fast paced communication it provides. Due to this communication has become so easy that you can find out what is happening in one part of the world by just a click of a button. People are able to reach the flung areas of Africa and get news from there; places which people did not even know existed. Internet has played a major role in promoting globalization. It has reduced the distances and brought the world closer.

Through the use of the scientific method, a person can find out the root cause of a light that will not turn on and find the appropriate solution to the dilemma. The first thing that must be taken into consideration is the root cause of the problem, which is that the light does not turn on. Then, one must do a little research and investigation into the problem. There are at least three different reasons as to why the light did not turn on when the light switch was flipped. The first reason is that the light did not turn on because the light bulb is defective in some way, either it has burned out or it is broken. The second reason that the light does not turn on could be because the light bulb is not receiving any power and therefore it will not light. The third reason is a variation of the second reason in which the power does not t urn on because the power supply has been cut off and thus requires further investigation. The fourth reason builds upon the possibility that the power has been cut to a larger area and it is not an isolated incident (Steps of the Scientific Method, 2011). Changing the light bulb and seeing if that fixes the problem would test the first hypothesis. If everything electrical in the household is in good working order then it is likely that this would be the appropriate solution to the problem.Show MoreRelatedIndustrial Revolution Impact On Western Society1521 Words à |à 7 Pageschanges in gender roles, and paved the way for the development of the modern Western society.

Here, we focus on the first four scenes to help you get to grips with this play. Analysis: King Lear, Act 3, Scene 1 Kent is out on the heath searching for King Lear. He asks the Gentleman where Lear has gone. We learn that Lear is battling the elements in a fury, raging against the world and tearing his hair. The Fool tries to make light of the situation by making jokes. Kent explains the recent division between Albany and Cornwall. He tells us that France is about to invade England and has already sequestered some of its army into England in secret. Kent gives the Gentleman a ring telling him to deliver it to Cordelia who is with the French forces at Dover. Together they continue to search for Lear. Analysis: King Lear, Act 3, Scene 2 Lear in on the heath; his mood reflecting the storm, he hopes the tempest will obliterate the world. The King dismisses the Fool who tries to convince him to return to Gloucesterââ¬â¢s castle to ask his daughters for shelter. Lear is angered by his daughterââ¬â¢s ingratitude and accuses the storm of being in cahoots with his daughters. Lear wills himself to calm down. Kent arrives and is shocked by what he sees. Lear does not recognize Kent but talks about what he hopes the storm will uncover. He says that the gods will find out the crimes of sinners. Lear famously muses that he is a man ââ¬Ëmore sinned against than sinningââ¬â¢. Kent tries to persuade Lear to take shelter in a hovel he has seen nearby. He intends to return to the castle and beg the sisters to take their father back. Lear shows a more sensitive and caring side when he identifies with the Foolââ¬â¢s suffering. In his demeaned state, the King recognizes how precious shelter is, asking Kent to lead him to the hovel. The Fool is left on stage making predictions about the future of England. Like his master, he talks of sinners and sins and describes a utopian world where evil no longer exists. Analysis: King Lear, Act 3, Scene 3 Gloucester is fretting about how Goneril, Regan, and Cornwall have treated Lear and their warnings against helping him. Gloucester tells his son Edmund, that Albany and Cornwall are going to clash and that France is about to invade in order to restore Lear to the throne. Believing that Edmund is loyal, Gloucester suggests that they both help the King. He tells Edmund to act as a decoy while he goes to find the king. Alone on stage, Edmund explains that he will betray his father to Cornwall. Analysis: King Lear, Act 3, Scene 4 Kent tries to encourage Lear to take shelter, but Lear refuses, telling him that the storm cannot touch him because he is suffering inner torment maintaining that men only feel bodily complaints when their minds are free. Lear compares his mental torment to the storm; he is concerned with his daughterââ¬â¢s ingratitude but now appears resigned to it. Again Kent urges him to take shelter but Lear refuses, saying that he wants isolation to pray in the storm. Lear speculates on the state of the homeless, identifying with them. The Fool runs screaming from the hovel; Kent calls out the ââ¬Ëspiritââ¬â¢ and Edgar as ââ¬ËPoor Tomââ¬â¢ comes out. Poor Tomââ¬â¢s state resonates with Lear and he is driven further into madness identifying with this homeless beggar. Lear is convinced that his daughters are responsible for the beggarââ¬â¢s terrible situation. Lear asks ââ¬ËPoor Tomââ¬â¢ to recount his history. Edgar invents a past as an errant servant; he alludes to lechery and the dangers of female sexuality. Lear empathizes with the beggar and believes he sees humanity in him. Lear wants to know what it must be like to have nothing and to be nothing. In an attempt to identify with the beggar further, Lear begins to undress in order to remove the superficial trappings that make him what he is. Kent and the Fool are alarmed by Learââ¬â¢s behavior and try to stop him from stripping. Gloucester appears and Edgar fears his father will recognize him, so he begins to act in a more exaggerated manner, singing and ranting about a female demon. It is dark and Kent demands to know who Gloucester is and why he has come. Gloucester asks about who is living in the hovel. A nervous Edgar then begins an account of seven years as a mad beggar. Gloucester is unimpressed by the company the King is keeping and tries to persuade him to go with him to a safe place. Lear is more concerned about ââ¬ËPoor Tomââ¬â¢ believing him to be some sort of Greek philosopher who can teach him. Kent encourages Gloucester to leave. Gloucester tells him that he is driven half mad with grief regarding his sonââ¬â¢s betrayal. Gloucester also speaks of Goneril and Reganââ¬â¢s plan to kill their father. Lear insists the beggar stays in their company as they all enter the hovel.

Mark-making is also a good outlet for any emotional feelings, happy or sad.

P.1 "Unions are groups of working people who join to talk to employers about wages and conditions of work instead of workers talking to employers on an individual basis."1 Because they speak for everybody, unions can get a better deal for each worker than one employee could by negotiating with the employer. As seen in the short movie "WHY UNIONS?", non-unionized workers talks about the unfair treatment they experience in the work place. Through collective action, workers formed unions so they could have a voice in deciding wageges, hours, working conditions and dealing with the many problems arises in the workplace. Unions are not just organizations trying to get more dollars and cents or better working conditions for people who hold union cards. People who don't enjoy the benefits of union protection get benefits too. "The labour movement was in the forefront of the struggles for public health care, for public education, for minimum wages, holidays and employ ment conditions."2 1 D. Martin, Form War To Peace, Canadian Labour Congress, Quebec, 1991, P.17 2 Notes On Unions, Canadian Labour Congress, Quebec, 1992, P.1 P.2 UNION NOWADAYS "Unions are like businesses: their success depends upon attracting and retaining buyers (new members). Recently, one of the major problems faced by the union movement is that few Canadians understand what services unions come into public."3 The public also don't know the union is also helping Canada in other parts of areas such as economy, etc. The public think that the only time unions come into the public's eye is as a result of strike or withdrawal of services. This is because of the impressed strikes held by the union workers. The memorable one would be the strike held by the Toronto Transit Commission workers back in September 1991. The lack of transportation resulted in inconveniences among the public. The Canadian public becomes upset over conflict. The strikes make the public forget about the contributions of unions in other areas. "From a marketing perspective, the union movement has positioned itself like the nuclear industry -- it receives attention only when it is about to blow up, melt or leak."4 Five important needs for union movements are: 3 Alistair Davidson and Ian Mckinnon, "Unions need to study marketing," The Globe and Mail, May 8 1984, Business section, P.8 4 D. D. Carter, Canadian Industrial Relations In The Year 2000, Industrial Relations Centre, Kingston, 1992, P.50 P.3 1) job preservation 2) health preservation in the workplace 3) day-care 4) retraining 5) financial negotiations on behalf of members "Union leaders and members must become as sophisticated as management to support the attempt by Canadian business to survive fierce international competition."5 There are about four million members of Canadian unions and 10.5 million members of co-o peratives. There are two choices: traditionally, unions have only tried to increase their members' standard of living by negotiating a higher wage, more benefits or fewer hours. "The union movement has played an important role in the past in the formation of new institutions such as credit unions. Today, new demands on the union movement will force it to examine its strategic choices."6 Above all, the union movement must structure itself to aid the survival of Canadian industry and Canadian jobs in a fiercely competitive world market. 5 Bryan D. Palmer, Solidarity: The Rise And Fall Of An Opposition In B.C., New Star Books, 1987, P.63 6 Peter Sinclair, Unemployment: Economic Theory And Evidence, Oxford Press, 1987, P.215 P.4 CANADIAN LABOUR CONGRESS At the national level, the "organization of unions" is the Canadian Labour Congress (CLC). The CLC is the central body in Canada and is composed of about 85 national and international unions representing about 2.2 million workers. LABOUR'S SOCIAL OBJECTIVES "The social objectives of the Canadian labour movement are a reflection of the aims and desires of a large segment of the country's working population."7 In some ways, the objectives are related to the economy. The objectives are: Health Programmes - the lack of available health care to all Canadians caused the labour movement to redouble its long-standing efforts to have a national medicare plan by which needed medical services would be available to all Canadians whatever their financial means.

I feel that it is the very conflicts that plagued and on multiple occasions threatened to kill the Colonists dreams of a new free nation that enabled them to develop this uniquely American Nation and in effect win their freedom. The great trials that this new society faced molded the colonists into a group of people that above all other desires had a passion for freedom. From its earliest beginnings exploration of the Americas proved to be a dangerous and daunting task. The complete and utter failure of the settlement on Roanoke Island showed that trying to settle in the Americas would certainly be no walk in the park. It took a group of people who were completely consumed with their conquest of freedom to produce the first permanent colony in the Americas, Jamestown. The Pilgrims who settled Jamestown were essentially a desperate crowd who felt that they had no choice but to pursue a new life on a new continent. The political and religious climate in England prior to 1600 left this group of reformists in the cold so to speak in relation to their religious freedom at home. Despite Henry the Eighths defiance of the Roman Catholic Church in the early 1500s the tide in England again began to shift back toward its roots in Catholicism nearing the end of the century. Along with Queen Marys accession to power came the reuniting of formal ties between the government and Catholicism which left the Pilgrims with no other choice in their minds but to find a new home. The first settlement at Jamestown was plagued with all sorts of trouble, among these poor housing and inadequate food. To make matters worse, the settlement was located in a marshy area where salt water mixed with the coloni...

No, not cheating on a test. Whenà actorsà cheatà out, they position themselves towards the audience, they share their bodies and voices so that audiences can see and hear them better. To Cheat Out means that the performer readjusts his or her body with an audience in mind. This might mean that the actors stand in a way thats not quite natural - which is why this practice cheats reality just a bit. But at least the audience will be able to see and hear the performer! Very often, when youngà actors areà rehearsing on stage, they might turn their backs to the audience, or offer only a limited view. The director then might say, Cheat out, please. Ad Lib During a performance of a play, if you forget your line and cover for yourself by saying something off-the-top of your head, you are ad-libbing, creating dialogue on the spot. The abbreviated term ad lib comes from theà latin phrase:à ad libitumà which means At ones pleasure.But sometimes resorting to an ad lib is anything but pleasurable. For an actor who forgets a line during the middle of a show, an ad lib might be the only way to keep the scene going. Have you ever ad-libbed your way out of a scene? Have you ever helped a fellow actor who forgot his or her lines with an ad lib? Actors have an obligation to learn and deliver the lines of a play precisely as the playwright wrote them, but its good to practice ad-libbing during rehearsals. Off Book When actors have completely memorized their lines, they are said to be off book. In other words, they will be rehearsing with no script (book) in their hands. Most rehearsal schedules will establish a deadline for actors to be off book. And many directors will not allow any scripts in hand - no matter how poorly prepared the actors may be - after the off book deadline. Chewing the Scenery This piece of theatrical jargon is not complimentary. If an actor is chewing the scenery, it means that he or she is over-acting. Speaking too loudly and theatrically, gesticulating largely and more than necessary, mugging for the audience - all of these are examples of chewing the scenery. Unless the character you play is supposed to be a scenery-chewer, its something to avoid. Stepping on Lines Although it is not always (or usually) intended, actors are guilty of stepping on lines when they deliver a line too early and thereby skip over another actors line or they start their line before another actor has finished speaking and thus speak on top of another actors lines. Actors are not fond of the practice of stepping on lines. Breaking Curtain When audiences attend a theatrical production, they are asked to suspend their disbelief - to agree to pretend that the action onstage is real and is happening for the first time. It is the responsibility of the productions cast and crew to help the audience do this. Thus, they must refrain from doing things like peeking out at the audience before or during a performance, waving from offstage to audience members they know, or appearing in costume off the stage during intermission or after the performance ends. All of these behaviors and others are considered breaking curtain. Paper the House When theaters give away a large amount of tickets (or offer the tickets at a very low rate) in order to gain a large audience, this practice is called papering the house. One of the strategies behind papering the house is to create positive word-of-mouth about a show that might otherwise suffer from low-attendance. Papering the house is also helpful to the performers because it is more satisfying and realistic to play to aà full or almost full house than to play for a sparsely populated set of seats. Sometimes papering the house is a rewarding way for theaters to offer seats to groups that might not otherwise be able to afford them.

Over the years since its inception, G20 has become a major force in matter of global politics and social economic interest; it has consistently provided a useful forum for developing solutions for the challenges facing the world economy. The sessions of the G20 provide a financial outlay that is has proven critical in providing for and planning for the resources that constitute the IMF and other development funds. At the leadership level, G20 it can rightfully be viewed as the de facto forum for international dialogue and through its financial agreements that cut across geopolitical boards necessitated by globalization are arranged and coordinated. To its credit, G20 has been greatly successful and effective in meeting its objectives and through it, numerous treaties have been negotiated and ratified, there is no doubt that it does and will continue to be critical for the stability of global fiscal and social economic stability. ... Nevertheless the system of governance that existed when it was a ministerial affair seem to have been retained, consequently, it is operated what can loosely be described as an informal way. Even today, G-20 is still without a charter or a secretariat, consequently it limits the organization in a myriad ways especially concerning administrative powers and begs the question if the purpose for which it was set can really be fulfilled without a more formalized structure in place. As aforementioned, one of the most pressing concerns concerning G20 is it lack of a permanent secretariat, instead, a financial stability Board (FSB) plays some of the roles that would be normally carried out by the secretariat. This board, which was established in 2009 in London, was instituted with the aim of; creating strong and prudent oversight of principal and risk management in order to promote transparency. They were also charged with addressing valuation and ultimately change in the application and fun ction of credit ratings; ergo the response by the authorities to risk and stress causing factors in the financial system can be strengthened. Notwithstanding its relative efficacy, a closer look at the issues addressed by G-20 will evince that they are not limited to the fiscal ones that the FSB was designed to deal with. Many other themes have emerged, many of them deviating from financial matters, such these include Policy Corporation between nations, social and political as well as climate change issues which are all related in various degrees of closeness to financial matters but which exceed the scope of the FSB in their non-financial concerns. Ceteris Pulibus, the FSB is not comprehensive enough in its scope to encompass all the matters that arise in the G20 meetings, Falkonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03656619754557573455noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3809345519239494791.post-57948041335052285942019-11-19T22:56:00.001-08:002019-11-19T22:56:04.102-08:00Introduction to Quality Assurance Essay Example | Topics and Well Written Essays - 750 wordsIntroduction to Quality Assurance - Essay Example Improvements in the patient satisfaction by increasing quality of care, will in itself lead towards reduction of risk. The basic steps in the design of the risk management strategy for the hospital are as follows: Being a military hospital, the biggest risk it faces are times of war. This is an area where it should be prepared in. The hospital has a good history of being able to perform in war times. They are so confident on their abilities that a whole section has been dedicated on the website to this issue in fact. Other than this, the hospital mainly focuses on patient satisfaction and increasing the quality of services that they presently are offering to existing patients. This is particularly true for newly registered patients who need to be retained. The risk management process heavily relies on the total quality management department of the hospital. The major responsibility is on the head of the Command Risk Manager who needs to make sure that the risk management process is up to date and has not missed out on anything. He has to ensure that any new developments in the hospital are incorporated into this plan. This also includes that these practices should be in accordance with the Bureau of Medicine and Surgery (BUMED) and the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO) rules and guidelines. Review and Evaluation of Plan When the planning stage has been developed, the time comes for the actual actions to be derived out of the planning. In this case the Naval Hospital hopes to make sure that losses will be able to be minimized and harm will also be prevented to the maximum extent. This is particularly important since the place exists for this very purpose only. This also means that the staff and the facility will be saved from any blame for any unforeseen accidents or mishaps. The benchmark that I am going to compare this Hospital to is the Naval Medical Center San Diego. The main reason for selecting this benchmark is that comparison between two same sort of things eliminates any discrepancies and confusion which might arise in the minds of readers. Now, being a bigger and more prosperous facility, the San Diego Naval Medical Center immediately has an advantage. It will get more customers than the Naval Hospital Guam. The biggest difference is that the Naval Medical Center San Diego is a "Center" while the Naval Hospital Guam is just a "Hospital". This means that the Naval Medical Center San Diego has to provide much more to its patients in forms of services and quality than the Guam Facility. So, all planning done by the Naval Medical Center San Diego is more thorough and covers a much more wide area to lower costs and provide a better overall understanding by the staff by reducing their confusion of the management practices. This makes the risk manageme nt program of Naval Medical Center San Diego a bit blurred compared to the Guam Hospital, as they can fine tune it without much changes and confusion, giving it the needed edge. There are not many things wrong with it actually. This plan is developed keeping many things in mind by the administration like lowering costs and so on.
