Workspace Locations Location and environment is key to ensure you do not spend numerous hours and money troubleshooting the components after the completion of building your PC. One of the main concerns is static electricity also referred to as electro static discharge. Voltage as little as 300 volts can damage the integral components to put in comparison; when you feel static electricity is already 3000 volts. Here are some protocols to reduce or eliminate ESD. - Keep the temperature around 75 degrees - Humidity between 68 and 72 % would be ideal to reduce dry air the inducing ESD. - The use of a static mat would be preferred; ensure the mat is grounded and wear the grounding strap according the specifications. - Keep pets away, especially cats as they...

...C351 YOT2 Task 1 Running Head: C351 Task 1 C351 YOT2 Task Amanda Drucker Western Governors University C351 YOT2 Task 2 A. Professional Presence Human, a word many use each and every day, most of the time without thinking of the meaning of the word. Of course there is a definition which one can find in any dictionary or encyclopedia, but the meaning, that is something that has evolved and continues to change each and every day. In fact the meaning of the word human can be described differently by nearly everyone who is asked. Dr. David Livingstone Smith, an associate professor at University of New England, states, “ answering this question is not as straightforward as it might appear,” when asked, what it means to be human (Smith, 2012). It can therefore be said that as the definition of being human changes and evolves so does the way we care for others in medicine. Dr. Larry Dossey describes three eras of medicine, each evolves from ideas of the previous and has changed over the years. In the first era, medicine has a “mechanical” approach which only involves drugs, procedures, and surgical intervention (Dossey, n.d.). In era two Dr. Dossey discusses a change that began to appear in medicine, that is, “that disease has a ‘psychosomatic’ aspect: that emotions and feeling can influence the body’s functions,” (Dossey, n.d.). Finally in era three it is said that, “ an individual’s mind may affect not just his or her body, but the body of another...

Hi everyone, I'm Jenny and today I want to give a little Kayla Itsines review for those who are thinking about buying her Bikini Body Guide. If you want the real truth about her guides then please do read on... Ohh, and this isn't going to be like all the other hyped up fluff like all of the other Kayla Itsines reviews out there so if you're wanting to read something like that, this isn't for you.. I think it's pretty safe to say that Kayla Itsines does in fact have a sexy body, but has she ever been over weight or been in a position where it is a lot harder to lose weight like most of us? I mean, by the looks of her bio she's been pretty fit all her life so I doubt she's ever...

...w A Reflection on Andrew Lloyd Webber By: Evan Emerson June, 20 2012 I am hooked on Broadway, for life! Touched by The Phantom of the Opera (1986), the first time I saw it was age 14. Andrew Lloyd Webber has won seven Tony Awards, four Grammy Awards, a Golden Globe Award, and an Academy Award; just to name a few 1. Andrew Lloyd Webber does not need our recognition – his legacy has already impacted millions worldwide! Webber is an accomplished composer. His success is exemplified by his passion for musical theater, smash hit The Phantom of the Opera (1986), and his continued support for the arts through the Andrew Lloyd Webber Foundation. I am inspired by Webber’s moving musical compilations and compulsion to press further even after making millions. Even at a young age, Webber knew what he wanted to do with his life. By the age of three, Webber showed an immense aptitude for the piano, but his mother stated “All the pieces he was supposed to play, he wouldn’t touch. He wanted to play his own tunes, and no others2.” I am profoundly impressed by Webber’s knack for knowing himself, and his drive to pursue his absolute passion in life. There is much wisdom to learn from someone who does what they love, and loves what they do! As I briefly stated, “Phantom” was my first introduction to theater. I have seen it 11 times since, not even including the film adaptation (2004). Needless to say, “Phantom” is my absolute favorite musical! Webber’s The Phantom of the...

...o there are many issue with wireless devices, I am going to discuss and also going to throw light on new possibilities. These are main 4 Issue with wireless technology we are having these day 1. Capacity We are transmitting these wireless data in form of radio wave, we all knows these are limited, scarce, and expansive and no hope for further expansion as per our need. These limitation is not able to full fill our current monthly data transmission demand and we are no doubt running out of spectrum. 2. Efficiency There is another problem, efficiency. These base stations consume lots of power every hour. Interesting thing is that most of the power is not used for transmitting radio waves, but to cool down the base stations. Thus efficiency of such base stations is only about 5%, that means a big problem. 3. Availability You can’t use your wireless devices in your Flight, hospitals, in military prone areas for security issue. 4. Security Security is another issue, these penetrating and scattering radio waves have no controls in boundaries, they goes off the range we use, even consumes power too. Even somebody can make misuse of these radio waves, Looking to another corner, we have 20 billion of Light bulbs deployed across the world in current infrastructure. That’s what I am going to cover in my post. We have electromagnetic spectrum, where we have Radio waves and visible light, Comparing their availability, bamm, we have 10,000 times more visible...

...Troubleshooting Operating Systems Arron CIS/296 Febuary 15, 2016 Steven Kernan Troubleshooting Operating Systems I have recently started in a new technical support role within the IT department of a major manufacturing organization. I am going to go through two scenarios in which I will help callers with problems occurring while using Windows XP and Windows Vista. The organization I am a part of doesn’t have a standard operating system in use. There are numerous products and versions in use across the whole company. I am going to discuss which of the operating systems I would recommend that the company makes standard between Windows XP and Windows Vista. I will also make a recommendation of which of the operating systems I would replace if I was in charge of the organization. My first scenario is that I receive a call from a user that using a Windows XP operating system and has encountered stability problems. The first thing I am going to do in order to gain more knowledge of the problem at hand is investigate the situation. I need this knowledge so I can properly troubleshoot the problem the user is having with the operating system they are using. The second thing I will do is establish a theory from the information I got from interviewing the user then I will test my theory. If my theory isn’t accurate then I will rethink the problem and figure out what occurring symptoms could be caused by, if my theory is correct I will resolve the problem. Taking preventative measures...

...Competency: Analysis of the Concept Michelle Trigg University of South Alabama Abstract Understanding the nature and meaning of nursing competency is the initial step in having an unambiguous definition of its practice. All healthcare professionals, including nurses, may only prove to be proficient in their capabilities if they are able to perform comprehensive assessments related to the provision and maintenance of safe and efficient care, the protection of all members of the general public, and the undertaking of all necessary actions in order to preserve the nursing profession. Any and all standards that are established, based on such a perspective, must be adhered to in practice and for the purpose of nursing evaluation. This paper will evaluate and explore the concept of competency and the ways in which the nursing profession integrates the many aspects of competency. Keywords: competence, competency, concept analysis Competency: Analysis of the Concept The concept of competency in nursing is a professional regulation and is extremely important to patient safety and outcomes. In the past, competency in nursing focused on evaluating clinical skills, and not the actual ability(ies) or comprehension of the science behind them (Allen et al., 2008). Nurse competency is a requirement in the clinical setting, and outlines the dimensions...

...7 Secrets to Getting Your Next b Using SocialMedia Dan Schawbei is the author of Me 2.0: Build a Po werfuf and owner of the award winning r. Between current economic conditions and the technological evolution of the Internet, the traditional approach most job seekers have taken in the past is no longer viable. The approach — developing a resume and cover letter, locating jobs on and submitting your resume to corporate sites and job banks, and crossing your fingers in hopes of receiving a call from a hiring manager — is, for the most part, a thing of the past. The new approach is far different. It boils down to the fact that there are fewer jobs available, more competition for those jobs and more touch points for recruiters and seekers to interact. The current environment In 2008, there were 1.2 million , unemployment is currently at 6.5%, and the largest companies are shedding as much as 10% of their workforces. There will be 1.5 million college graduates this year, yet the _ is at a six year low, at 1.3%! The amount of jobs posted online is decreasing at over 13%, which has all led to the - of 3.3 job seekers per each job. Social networks are starting to become part of the criteria that both hiring managers and college admissions officers are using to weed out applicants. _ hiring managers conduct background checks using social networks (primarily Facebook), while college admissions officers...
