...12 weeks to peak, but it could vary a little because of an injury or something but this is the basic cycle he likes to follow. The first four weeks he uses 4 sets of 6 reps in the bench press. On the 4th set he goes limit. He uses each rep as a 5-pound indicator for his next workout. He starts the cycle at 400 lbs. Example – 400 x 6, 400 x 6, 400 x6, 400 x limit (e.g. 10) So, from the last set, five pounds for each rep over six would work out to (10 reps minus 6) 4 times 5 (five pound for each rep over six)equals 20 (pounds more next workout). Example (next workout) – 420 x 6, 420 x 6, 420 x 6, 420 x 8. Many 4-20’s! Then, by following the same plan – 2 reps more than 6 in the last set equals a 10 lb. weight increase at the next workout. The highest he has reached in this program is 470 pounds for 4 sets of 6. These workouts fall twice a week of every fourth day, as desired and as his work schedule with the railroad with the railroad with the railroad allows. After 4 weeks Doug goes to a double program. One workout is the same 4 sets of 6, and the next workout is 5 sets of 3. This runs for 4 weeks or up to 4 weeks before the meet. At that time he does only 5 sets of 3 for 2 weeks. 2 weeks before the meet he goes to 5 sets of 2, timing it where he gets three workouts in but rests for five days before the meet. In past programs he had done one limit set of reps at the end of his workout with anywhere from 50 to 100 lbs. under what he was working with his program. His normal...

...AGGREGATE PLANNING Overview of aggregate planning activities An organization must plan its manufacturing activities of variety of level and operate those as a system .Planning help to know where to go, the aim of the organization, the goal, the objective and how these can be accomplished. Planning involves the process of forecasting, budgeting and choosing among alternative. In planning, there are time dimensions which can be classified into long, medium and short range. 1) Long range planning: This is the planning that is generally done annually, focusing on a horizon greater than a year. It usually begins with a statement of organization objective and goals for the next two to ten years. Co-operate strategic planning shows how the goals and objective of the organization are to be established in light of the organization’s capacities and its economics and political environment as projected by it business forecasts. 2) Medium range planning: this is the planning that usually cover the period of from 6 to 18 months, with the increment usually monthly or sometime quarterly. Under the medium range planning, we have some steps of planning which can done within that interval. These include Aggregate production planning, Item forecasting, master production scheduling, rough-cut capacity planning and so on. 3) Short range planning: This covers the period from one day to six months, with the increment usually weekly. The term aggregate is used to indicate that the capacity...

...Chapter 9 health and disability insurance |CHAPTER OVERVIEW | Planning a health insurance program needs careful study because the protection should be shaped to the needs of the individual or the family. However, the task is simplified for many families because a foundation for their coverage is already provided by group health insurance at work. We begin the chapter by recognizing the importance of health insurance in financial planning and define health insurance. Then we analyze the benefits and limitations of the various types of health insurance coverage. Private and governmental sources of health insurance and health care are presented next, with a complete coverage of health maintenance organizations (HMOs). Then, we discuss the importance of disability insurance in financial planning and identify its resources. Finally, we explore why the costs of health insurance and health care have been increasing and what is being done to curtail them. |LEARNING OBJECTIVES |CHAPTER SUMMARY | After studying this chapter, students will be able to: |Obj. 1 |Recognize the importance of health |Health insurance is protection that provides payments of benefits for a covered sickness | | |insurance in financial planning. |or injury.

...Collaborative Week 4 Assignment Orlando Bogran QNT/275 July 12th, 2015 Dr. Regina Pacheco In week four of our collaborative assignment we were to interpret the information we gathered and transform it into something that we can use to make inferences and deductions as to what can be done better as a company. Last week I submitted a spreadsheet (which is attached with this as well) that gave general information to the raw data I gathered. This week I took that data a little further. I went back to those accounts and took down what their purpose was in their visit to our Verizon Wireless store. They were divided into four groups: Troubleshooting, account questions, upgrades, and add a line. When I divided them into these groups all of the people that stated that they hated Verizon were there for troubleshooting and were all under contract. So I realized that my chart was missing some further information thus I created a new column for my data which is contracts. With these added groups the data collected took better form and narrowed down the issue to a more specific group. After taking a look at all the before and after data (also attached to this document) I realized why the customers that thought ill of Verizon when they first came in were able to change their outlook on the company, we provided a solution for their problem. Like i stated earlier most of the troubleshoots came in under contract, and most of those had phones that were either damaged or could not keep...

...QNT 275 Business Decision Making Project Final Project Throughout the last five weeks, Learning Team B has researched and gathered descriptive statistics pieces of equipment for Darrin Compton’s future small bakery or café. Darrin Compton is starting a bakery/café. Darrin relayed that news to Learning Team B. Learning Team B decided it would be a good class long project to research and discuss. Each member was assigned a specific type of kitchen equipment for Darrin’s new bakery. The equipment list is as follows: Convection Oven, 10 Gallon Tilting Kettle, 20 quart mixer, 60 quart mixer, a walk-in refrigerator, and a walk-in freezer. From that point, the team worked individually; only consulting with the team and Darrin after we had developed a good piece of research for a specific piece of equipment. Once all of the equipment was sufficiently researched and vetted, the team compiled all of the information in discussion board posts. Equipment for Research: 1) Double Stack Convection Oven 2) Groen 10 gallon Tilting Kettle 3) 20 qt. Mixer 4) 60 qt. Mixer 5) Walk-in Refrigerator 6) Walk-in Freezer Above is the equipment the team researched and developed a solid idea of what was a good price, warranty, shipping estimates, and quality.

What is interesting about the sacred realm focuses mainly on faith by demonstrating it through abstract ideas. I say that because we really do not know what angels and God look like so when the artist creates that for the viewers to see and have an image in their head. Although this painting is not in a museum, “The Assumption can be seen from the far end of the church, drawing the eye to the sacred space of the altar” (Getlein, 2010, p. 43).

This piece of art is pictured in chapter one. “Archaeologists have formed some tentative conclusion about how the paintings were doing” (Getlein, 2010, p. 4).

The San Jose mine in northern Chili, collapsed, trapping 33 miner. The is owned by Minera San Esteban Primera. This was the third collapse since 2007. The miners were trapped 9842 feet under the ground. They had very little food, water and oxygen. According to Raul Villegas, who barely escaped the mine collapse, at approximately 2:00 pm that day, dust was filling the cavern, but he was only mildly concerned because that was a normal occurrence. However, as he got closer to the surface, he and his truck was almost over taken by a bigger cloud of dust, in circling him in dirt and darkness. Raul stated that he just made it out of the cavern when the mine collapsed. He goes on to state that it felt like a dynamite explosion, with an immense wave. He did report the incident to his supervisors, but it was hours later that the company notified the authorities. He and other workers tried to enter the cavern to start a recue effort but they soon realized that the ramp to enter the cavern had disappeared. The regions six-person special operations squad then triesd to enter the cavern arounf 9:00 pm, but returned around 6:00 am the next morning empty handed, shaken and drenched in sweat. By this time, relatives and reporters had arrived on the site, demanding answers, alonf with a number of independent miners,...
