...Section-1 INTRODUCTION Background of the study (Credibility in Wikipedia) A selfie is a type of self-portrait photograph, typically taken with a hand-held digital camera or camera phone. Selfies are often associated with social networking, like Instagram. They are often casual, are typically taken either with a camera held at arm's length or in a mirror, and typically include either only the photographer or the photographer and as many people as can be in focus. Selfies taken that involve multiple people are known as "group selfies" or "ussies". Robert Cornelius, an American pioneer in photography, produced a daguerreotype of himself in 1839 which is also one of the first photographs of a person. The concept of uploading group self-taken photographs (now known as super selfies) to the internet, although with a disposable camera not a smartphone, dates to a webpage created by Australians in September 2001, including photos taken in the late 1990s (captured by the Internet Archive in April 2004). The earliest usage of the word selfie can be traced as far back as 2002. It first appeared in an Australian internet forum (ABC Online) on 13 September 2002. Um, drunk at a mates 21st, I tripped ofer [sic] and landed lip first (with front teeth coming a very close second) on a set of steps. I had a hole about 1cm long right through my bottom lip. And sorry about the focus, it was a selfie. The term "selfie" was discussed by photographer Jim Krause in 2005, although photos in the...

This company is just starting out and will have a wide, diverse range of products and services. Some of these will include website design, remote network support, graphic design, photography sessions, and technical support. The web presence is an initial step to introduce the company. Following this, prospective customers will be able to access the website for information about the company and the services offered. Future updates will include the addition of available products made by the company. The site will need to provide information about the company’s qualifications and certifications of the staff, contact information, and information request forms. In anticipation of future growth of the services and products offered, a site template page will need to allow for the creation of additional pages and information. The project is forecast to be completed in three basic phases. The first phase will be to define the content to be initially included on the site by researching other company websites of a similar nature. ...

Information technology continues to advance in ways that greatly benefit society on many levels but as the increasing benefits develop so do the security vulnerabilities associated with information technology. Hardware and software is being released to the general public that can help people be more productive but this same technology can be used to infiltrate or impede practiced physical security measures whether that effort is intentional or not. In this paper we will explore both...

...Psychological Association (APA) Publication Manual (Name of Style Manual Used in this Study) Communication is the process of sharing ideas, information, and messages with others in a particular time and place. Communication includes writing and talking, as well as nonverbal communication (such as facial expressions, body language, or gestures), visual communication (the use of images or pictures, such as painting, photography, video or film) and electronic communication (telephone calls, electronic mail, cable television, or satellite broadcasts). Communication is a vital part of personal life and is also important in business, education, and any other situations where people encounter each other (Encarta, 1998). The purpose of this study was to discover whether or not there was a communication gap between the supervisors and the customer service representatives and/or unit leaders within organization, XYZ. The data was collected from the customer service representatives and/or unit leaders through the use of a multiple choice single answer survey. The survey was distributed via face-to-face (drop-off-survey). Eighty seven percent of...

...Project Management Case Studies These case studies represent a range of projects in different libraries. They are all based on real events. The participating librarians were asked to provide details of projects within the headings used in the case study template which is located at the end of this document. Each case study is presented using these headings to enable the reader to make comparisons between the projects but there is some slight variation of style and detail. Although some editing has been done by the writer of these learning objects, the intention is to retain as much of the individuality of each project as possible. Brief conclusion and analysis is provided at the end of each case study by the writer of these learning objects. Several of the projects are ongoing at the time of writing. This partly reflects the nature of projects in ILS whereby they run parallel to mainstream service delivery. This offers real challenges for those involved and especially for the project leader who will continually need to prioritise the tasks, commitment and speed of working towards completion. None of these projects have been submitted by or directly involve senior managers. Although most have some approval and reporting to senior staff, these projects are managed by professionals in the middle management strata of their organizations and involve different grades of staff or volunteers. Senior staff are less accessible than middle managers and would probably claim to...
