...ITN 100 ASSIGNMENT 2| LAST NAME _Johnson__ FIRST NAME _George____ 04/02/0214 Chapter 3 & 4 Mini-Cases Q1 Eureka! New Office Eureka staff answers the phone and respond to requests entered on the Eureka! Website. Much of their work is spent on the phone and on computers searching on the Internet. They have just leased a new office building and are about to wire it. What media would you suggest they install in their office and why? ANSWER 1 I would suggest that Eureka installs (LAN) because it has information sharing and resource sharing. Company users would have access to the same data files, one computer sharing a hardware device for printing and internet connection or getting a software package with other computers on the network to save costs. Also all Eureka staff members would no longer have to upgrade all computers with package software. Q2 Speedy Package 1.) Assuming that each label is 1000 bytes long, how long does it take to transmit one label over the cell network, assuming that the cell phone network operates at 14 kbps (14,000 bits per second and that there are 8 bits in a byte)? (1000 bytes * 8 bits per byte) / 14000 bits per second = 0.571 seconds 2.) If Speedy were to upgrade to the new, faster digital phone network that transmits data at 114 Kbps (114,000 bits per second) how long would it take to transmit? ANSWER 2 Since a byte is 8 bits and you have 1000 bytes per label, you must transmit (1000...

...Nitendo Situation: Under Armour is an innovative company that makes performance athletic gear, ranging from underwear to camouflage hunting wear. The majority of Under Armour apparel is made of the company’s moisture-wicking and heat dispersing fabrics, which help keep moisture away from the athlete during athletic training, exercise, and performance. Under Armour products are available through internet sales, catalog sales, and retail stores both nationwide and internationally. Under Armour is the leading “compression”sports apparel brand. Under Armour is currently trying to increase their competitive advantage through innovation and introducing new products that will keep faithful customers coming back to their brand and attract new ones as well. Newproduct lines include “Charged Cotton” (Barrie,2011) and “Cold Black” (Walter, 2011) Complication: Currently, the primary challenge for Under Armour is the ability to maintain a focused-differentiated marketing strategy in a saturated market with huge competitors such as Nike and Adidas. Bothof these competitors have the resources and capital to counter Under Armour with comparable products at lower consumer prices. Under Armour’s lack of intellectual property(patents) are a weakness for the company. Currently, Under Armour does not own any patents on their products. This has opened up the market to larger competitors, such as Nike and Adidas. The company also relies heavily on third-party...

...Therapeutic Exercise Prescription Concepts Applied to Patients Diagnosed With Fibromyalgia Pain is defined as an “unpleasant feeling, conveyed to the brain by sensory neurons” (Medical Dictionary, 2013). Pain is a subjective interpretation, which describes location, intensity and nature of sensory information resulted from noxious stimulation of nerve endings. The emotional response and other various conscious or unconscious responses add to the concept of pain. Acute pain usually results from tissue damage and it usually ends once the injury is healed. Chronic pain is a long term condition related to a persistent or degenerative disease or it doesn’t have an identifiable cause. Although there are different opinions about when a patient can be declared as suffering from chronic pain (after six months or twelve months), the presence of such sensation after the healing period usually leads to this diagnosis. One of the diseases with a generalized chronic pain as a symptom, which continues to generate many debates in the medical world, is fibromyalgia. Fibromyalgia, a disorder that affects the overall system and has an effect of generalized chronic pain, will be delineated in this paper, including its causes, manifestation, and part of the process of managing this disease in which a kinesiologist would have a central role. Fibromyalgia, estimated to affect 4% of the population, is a compilation of symptoms accompanying pain, which include fatigue, stiffness and sleep disturbance...

Telecommuting Can Boost Productivity and Job Performance Retrieved from http://www.usnews.com/opinion/articles/2013/03/15/telecommuting-can-boost-productivity-and-job-performance. A.

...The Second Amendment to the United States Constitution protects the Americans right to keep and bear arms. Gun control is a law suggesting regulation and restriction of the possession of guns. But is it really protecting society? Gun control only keeps law abiding citizens from obtaining firearms. Criminals will always have ways of getting weapons; whether it be from the black market, across borders, or illegal street sales. If a person cannot follow the sacred laws of the land, new gun laws won’t do much to stop them. After all, they are known to break the laws. As the saying goes; where there’s a will, there’s a way. Gun control laws should not be implemented because they will not stop crime, they will only disarm those who are not inclined or determined to commit crimes. The Bill of Rights was ratified in 1791. The 2nd amendment states “the right of the people to keep and bear Arms shall not be infringed“ (Mount 1). Why would the founders of our country go through the trouble of adding an amendment to the Constitution, the governing document for the country, if they didn't intend for it to effect government action? The whole point of the Bill of Rights was to limit government action and power. Those who support gun control laws are interpreting the 2nd amendment in their own way, while firearm enthusiasts think that their freedom is being attacked (Mount 2). In 2008 in the District of Columbia, The Supreme Court ruled that the amendment explicitly protects Americans’ right...

...Annals of Financial Economics The Causal Relationship Between Bank Capital and Profitability David E. Hutchison and Raymond A. K. Cox 1 Westwood Development Group and University of Ontario Institute of Technology Abstract: The relationship between capital structure and return on equity is examined. It is shown that for banks in the U.S., for the relatively less regulated 1983 to 1989 period as well as the more highly regulated 1996 to 2002 period, there is a positive relationship between financial leverage and the return on equity. The analysis is extended to determine the relationship between return on assets and equity capital. The evidence supports the hypothesis that there is a positive relationship between equity capital and return on assets. Relevance to Practice: Previous empirical evidence for U.S. banks had indicated a perverse negative relationship between financial leverage and the return on equity for the 1983 to 1989 period. The cause of such an association was attributed to a reputation effect for large banks who adopted an aggressive capital structure. These contrary findings coupled with regulations on improving equity capital adequacy from the Basel II accord supported the efforts to promote a reduced capital structure risk posture by banks. However, these opposite results conflicted with traditional thought from the DuPont analysis wherein, when operating profitability is positive, increased financial leverage augments the return on equity. Thus,...

Unfortunately, it still is undeniable that a lot of prejudices and injures still happen to females. One of the most significant one is child brides’ problem.

Firstly, some religions that allow existence of child brides can encourage their followers or their followers’ daughters to get married before eighteen. What’s more, developing countries and many rural areas where poverty widely existed contribute a great part to this growing tendency.

Brackett and Peter Salovey Yale University This manuscript examines the measurement instrument developed from the ability model of EI (Mayer and Salovey, 1997), the Mayer-Salovey-Caruso Emotional Intelligence Test (MSCEIT; Mayer, Salovey and Caruso, 2002). The four subtests, scoring methods, psychometric properties, reliability, and factor structure of the MSCEIT are discussed, with a special focus on the discriminant, convergent, predictive, and incremental validity of the test. The authors review associations between MSCEIT scores and important outcomes such as academic performance, cognitive processes, psychological wellbeing, depression, anxiety, prosocial and maladaptive behavior, and leadership and organizational behavior. Findings regarding the low correlations between MSCEIT scores and self-report measures of EI also are presented.
