...Team B University of Phoenix 3157 E. Elwood St. Phoenix, AZ 85034 August 25, 2010 Tyrie Smith University of Phoenix 3157 E. Elwood St. Phoenix, AZ 85034 Good Day, TEAM B WILL CRAFT A MANUAL BASED ON THE LIBRARY SERVICE (SEE ATTACHED) Team B’s choice of creating a manual on the Library did not come without some deliberation. Most of the team’s members had no experience on how to begin the process of creating a manual of any kind. Team B’s reasoning behind choosing the Library is, although it seems like something that wouldn’t be much to cover in a manual, it has much to offer in the way of content and services. Our intentions for selecting the Library are to have enough content to constitute a solid manual, yet be small enough to allow an easy understanding of how to create a manual. Not to say the Library does not have much to offer for a manual. When contemplating between the Library and the Online Learning System (OLS), we believe that the OLS would have more content, which would make it easier to create a hearty manual. After breaking down each of the two candidates, we found that the Library has more to offer than just some databases that hold books and a program that tells its users whether they have plagiarized or not. In the end, our decision is to write the manual over the Library and its many benefits and services to students at University of Phoenix. Thank you for your time, Team B University of Phoenix Library The library consists of...

...Getting Started Overview The purpose of this guide is to get Deep Freeze installed and running on your machine without any issues. It provides a reference for many common questions that arise when installing and using this software. Deep Freeze Resources User guides, video tutorials, white papers, and other documentation on Deep Freeze Standard are available in the Faronics Content Library at www.faronics.com/library. What is Deep Freeze? Deep Freeze is a software program that prevents any permanent changes being made to a machine. Deep Freeze has two states: Frozen and Thawed. When Deep Freeze is in a Frozen state, any changes made to the machine are forgotten when the machine is restarted. When Deep Freeze is in a Thawed state, any changes made to the machine are retained when the machine is restarted. When making changes to a machine, such as installing software or performing updates, the computer needs to be put into a Thawed state. A reboot is required every time the state of the computer is changed. Requirements Deep Freeze requires Windows 95/98/Me/2000/XP/Vista and 10% free hard drive space. The hardware requirements are the same as the recommended hardware requirements for the host operating system. Installing Deep Freeze Standard When installing Deep Freeze, close and disable all background utilities and antivirus software. Complete the following steps to install Deep Freeze Standard: 1. 2.

...Jake Livingston Mrs. Niel English composition 101 MW 1-12:30 9-10-11 Underneath the Rapids “Jake, come and eat before your brothers eat everything!” It was another gorgeous morning in the West Virginian Mountains. My parents decided that we all needed to bond a little more as a family, so they planned for us all to go on a family vacation. This wasn’t such a terrible idea seeing as how my brothers seemed to hate me, as all older brothers hate their snitch little brothers. They decided that a white water rafting trip seemed like a fun idea for the boys. My sister had to stay home because she was pregnant with her first child. So off we went in the summer of 2005, to good ole’ West Virginia. I was 12 at the time, while my older brothers, Nate and Nick, were 19 and 17. Nate was a two time convicted felon who loved to drink at the time. His life wasn’t exactly going down the right path and my parents wanted to try and connect with him more. Nick on the other hand was a pretty nice kid who was well liked in the community, he had his secrets though. Nick loved to sneak out and go to girl’s houses late at night, I was fortunate enough to share a room with him. Every time he would sneak out when I was still awake, I would tell my parents. I don’t know why I did this to my own older brother; I guess I just liked the attention. He would know it was me and beat me up for betraying him, which would inevitably end up in even more trouble for him. So as you can guess he didn’t like...

...It was on July 18, 2013 and I just got up at 3 o’clock in the morning getting ready to go to the scout hut to meet up with the rest of our crew to go to the airport. I went to the bath room doing the normal morning routines getting a shower, getting dressed, brushing my teeth and trying to make myself presentable to the public. My dad walked up to me and said “you want coffee?” I replied back to him “no I plan on crashing on the way there and on the flight.” My mother, dad and me both got up got our stuff and put it inside the car and headed off to the scout hut. When we got there Cade was already there waiting for everyone else to get there. When we got out I said “Cade, are you ready?” and of course we all know what he said “Yep.” I just started to walk around waiting for Mr. Valcaro to get here until Cades dad just got a text saying Mr. Vacaro forgot to get some paperwork and it will be another 10 minutes before he gets there. It was the slowest ten minutes of my life because I was so eager to get on the road. Finally he got here and I said “it took you guys long enough!” Everyone started laughing as we got our stuff in his suburban. I gave my mom a hug goodbye and we were off on the road. I rested my head on the side of the window not listening to anyone’s conversation exempt for the guns and roses that was playing on the radio. When we got there we unloaded everything went through checking and sat there for about 30 minutes waiting for our flight to board. When the...

...When I approached the yard where fourteen other people and our tour guide were standing I couldn’t help but look up and daze at the what had seemed like a small house from afar but actually pretty big up close. The tour guide greeted us and told us the rules and history of what had happen in that house. When we were finally able to go into the house, we followed the tour guide as he led the way. I was actually fine for the most part until I started to get goosebumps all over my body. I realized that a family had been murdered, a man and his wife and kids lost their lives on what they thought to be a normal day. Ten minutes into the tour, Roman had a brilliant idea to sneak off and hide in the attic until everyone was gone. “Boy what is wrong with you?” tommy said with a puzzling face. Roman being the rebel he has always been took off upstairs into the attic where the man hid with the axe. We all looked at each other, then slowly one by one they started walking upstairs too. I walked up there hesitantly looking back each second making sure no one was coming. It was hard to keep quiet with the stairs creaking at each step I took. When I reached the top there wasn’t anything up there but the old, cobwebbed window. It was such a small sized attic and the ceiling was hanging low. I was so scared of getting caught, I suggested going back with the...
