...Saddles were a simple concept in the middle ages when they truly came to use for knights in battle. Today, saddles have a much different use. The type of saddle, and the needs it must fulfil, are also much different. Saddles originally had a tree, a wooden, or synthetic structure in the center of the saddle that allowed the saddle to keep a firm shape. Unfortunately, every horse's back is formed differently, and a simple sizing chart of regular, wide and narrow tree , is not broad enough for each and every horse. New breaks in equestrian technology have allowed a treeless, and exchangeable treed saddle to be created, but they still have issues that have yet to been solved. Traditional treed saddles have hundreds of years of technology invested...

... the buffer pH will increase, or there will be a temperature increase. In Part C, my hypothesis stated that tacrine will have an inhibitory effect on AChE, and that those effects will increase as the level of concentration increases. In all three labs I postulated that increases in temperature and concentration levels and would increase the rates and decrease time to form chemical reactions. We setup each lab with a series of increased concentrations and a control trial using DiH2O. We observed the results using the following instruments: LabQuest and LabQuest App, a Spectrometer, an Oxygen Gas Sensor, LoggerPro software, and class data was collected at the end of each lab and distributed to us at the following class. The objective of this lab was to be able to identify the preferred conditions of the enzymes for catalyzing activity. My hypotheses were largely proven correct; as the concentrations, pH...

...Insight to an Unethical Situation Week 6- Final Project Danielle Introduction Toyota’s announcement of a technical fix for its sticky gas pedals, which can lead to sudden acceleration problems, is not likely to bring a quick end to the company’s current recall nightmare. During the course of this paper, I will explain in detail the Toyota recall in 2010 having to do with the gas petal sticking. I will also explain why I believe Toyota handled this situation from the deontological perspective and what other theories apply to the unethical situation. Description Unethical Situation In 2010, Toyota was forced to issue a series of highly-publicized recalls, due to reports of cars accelerating beyond the driver's control. The issue led to Congressional hearings, damaged the reputation of a company once known for its bulletproof reliability, and left millions of Toyota owners with questions about their own safety. Understandably, the news was worried for Toyota consumers. It also rocked the automotive industry, as questions about Toyota's reputation for reliability surfaced during this time. It started with a single, horrifying car crash in southern California in August 2009. In the weeks following, two separate recalls covering 7.5 million vehicles, Toyota was forced to announce it was suspending the sale of eight of its best-selling vehicles, a move that cost the company and its dealers a minimum of $54 million a day in lost sales revenue. How did a company that became...

...Lathe: Work and tool are held in lathe with the assistance of chucks, faceplates, or lathe canters. A lathe chuck is a device that exerts pressure on the work piece to hold it secure to the headstock spindle or tailstock spindle. Commonly used with the lathe are the 3 jaw chuck as well as in the 4 jaw chuck also: The 3 jaw chuck which move in unison as an adjusting pinion is rotated. The advantage of the 3 jaw chuck is its ease of operation in centring the work for concentric turning. This chuck is not as accurate as the independent chuck but, when in good condition, it will centre the work automatically within 0.003 of an inch of complete accuracy. The jaws are moved simultaneously within the chuck by means of a scroll or spiral threaded plate. The jaws are threaded to the plate and move an equal distance inward or outward as the scroll is rotated by means of the adjusting pinion...

...and its implementation. It involved the designing and development of a suitable human computer interface to provide a log on module for the Kuwait armed forces computer system. The development focused on relieving the user from the load of creating, remembering and maintaining their passwords for the login process. Based on the fact that the Kuwait information and communication technology literacy levels are still in their infancy stage, the conventional authentication system was proved unfriendly to the user. This system was developed with this in mind. This proposed system relies on the user logging in to the system after identifying five pictures they uploaded earlier from among a grid of twenty five pictures. By selecting the five correct pictures which they uploaded, the system was able to successfully authenticate the user. Using these pictures greatly reduced the mental load on a user who was required to remember strong passwords that ended up being compromised (Badre 2002). The use of pictures or graphical images for authentication or access control is a practice called biometrics that is gaining popularity in establishing system security today. Due to the need to deliver a solution in the shortest time possible the agile methodology was employed here. This project was considered a rapid applications development (RAD) project (Martin 1991). The phases of the project were time bound to ensure the rapidity of development. Prototyping as a rapid application development...

...CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION TO GLOBAL MARKETING SUMMARY Marketing is an organizational function and a set of processes for creating, communicating, and delivering value to customers and for managing customer relationships in ways that benefit the organization and its stakeholders. A company that engages in global marketing focuses resources on global market opportunities and threats. Successful global marketers such as Nestle, Coca-Cola, and Honda use familiar marketing mix elements – the four Ps – to create global marketing programs. Marketing, R&D, manufacturing, and other activities comprise a firm’s value chain; The value equation (V =B/P) expresses the relationship between values and the marketing mix. Global companies also maintain strategic focus while pursuing competitive advantage. The marketing mix, value chain, competitive advantage, and focus are universal in their applicability, irrespective of whether a company does business only in the home country or has a presence in many markets around the world. However, in a global industry, companies that fail to pursue global opportunities risk being pushed aside by stronger global competitors. A firm’s global marketing strategy (GMS) can enhance its worldwide performance. The GMS addresses several issues. First is nature of the marketing program in terms of the balance between a standardization (extension) approach to the marketing mix and a localization (adaptation) approach that is responsive to country or regional...
