...one. Of course, I have taken the basic, but very effective program and tweaked it to perfect its effectiveness and to maximize the results you get. These results include greater strength, bigger muscles, and less body fat. PERIODIZATION WORKS... PERIOD! This program is based on the training concept called periodization. Periodization is the method of changing up your training at specified time points. The very first periodized scheme to be used with weights is called Linear Periodization (also known as Classc Periodization). That simply means that you start with light weight and high reps and as the program progresses the weights used get heavier and heavier and the reps completed per set get fewer and fewer. Most periodized programs take many months to complete. Many last anywhere from 4 to 12 months to complete the cycle. But this periodized program utilizes a concept known as microcycles. Where a typical linear periodized scheme might stick with the same weight and rep range for a month or longer, the micro cycles change up the weight and rep ranges every week. In week one your rep range will be 12-15 reps. In week two you bump up all the weights and drop reps down to 9-11. Week three adds weight again to...

...Maximizing Virtual Private Networks for Banner Service Corporation Abstract This paper will delve into how a small growing business like Banner Service Corporation can benefit from utilizing available technology to its fullest potential. Specifically, the paper will show how utilizing virtual private networks will help to maximize the company’s productivity, communication and ultimately profitability. Table of Contents Definition 4 Banner Service's Background 5 Current Business Issues 6 Proposed Solution 8 Recommendation 10 Works Cited 12 Definition A virtual private network, or VPN, is a network of computers that utilizes existing internet connections to enable off-site people or locations to connect with the main organization’s network. Two or more devices, which are on their own separate networks, are connected to each other through the VPN. Data is then permitted to stream between the networked devices without interruption or interference from other devices that may be connected to one of the device’s local network, but not connected into the virtual private network. Before the advent of Virtual Private Networks, most network computers connected to each other via leased lines or a dial up connection. These lines were extremely expenseive and cost companies tens of thousands of dollars to implement and maintain. Virtual Private Networks changed all that when they came on the scene in the late 1990’s. They significantly reduced network...

Typically, an embedded system is housed on a single microprocessor board with the programs stored in ROM. Virtually all appliances that have a digital interface like watches, microwaves, VCRs, cars etc., utilize embedded systems. Some embedded systems include an operating sys-tem, but many are so specialized that the entire logic can be implemented as a single program. The term paper would elaborate the history of embedded systems, the generations of its development, the components of embedded systems, its design issues and the programming languages that are used to build it. Then this paper would also include its current state of art, its uses, its current applications, the problems that have occurred in designing such kind of systems, also the steps taken to solve such problems and its future prospects. 1. INTRODUCTION These are the days when the term like embedded is increasingly becoming more and more popular in the world. We are flooded with embedded systems that seem to be everywhere. Now the question is what basically embedded systems are. We can...

...There is no mistaking it - the benefits from science are all around us. It has made our daily lives better through medicine, healthcare, technological, electrical and even mechanical innovation. If you are reading this paper on a computer, it is science that made it all possible. Understanding the many complexities of science can be quite a difficult undertaking, however, there is a common denominator that all scientists use in achieving the amazing results that they achieve; they use the scientific method. The scientific method allows scientists to utilize a common approach to address the requirements of the scientific community. These techniques allow other scientists, as well as just the layman, to know that there has been a standardized system applied to the scientific process. I will present a brief example of what the scientific method is and how to apply it to a real life issue. Scenario 1: You arrive home late at night. You walk up to the front door, unlock it, and reach in to turn on the light switch located just inside the front door. The light does not come on! Now what? Oh, no. It's dark and difficult to see. Why isn't the light going on? Let's see. What could be the problem? Well, let me use my scientific method to see if I can figure this out. Step 1. Define the problem: The light will not go on. Why might this be? It could be lots of reasons. Maybe the bulb is out. Maybe the switch is broken. Maybe the circuit breaker has been shut off. Maybe we're having...

...| Business Strategy | Assignement | 24/05/2010 | | | | “Making your organisation fit for purpose” Starbucks Coffe Company is the world leading brand in roasting and distributing coffee. The company owns now more than 15 000 coffee shops around the globe: it is settled in North America, Latin America, Europe, Middle-East and Asia. The diversity and depth of its offer (from smooth to extra roasted coffee, African, Arabian or Latin, and all the muffins, cookies and sandwiches) allow them to count on an international exposure that has last for many years. Still, their business tends to be flattening. And the number of competitors in their core-business market, even if the competition stays way back them, is growing constantly. Considering these facts, the objective of Starbucks is to strengthen its leadership on the market. We were then approached by Starbucks in this particular goal. In this folder, you will find an entire analysis of the external environment of Starbucks Coffee Company: the macro-environment, the competitors and market and the stakeholders’ expectations will lead to being aware of opportunities and threats. Then, we went on the study of the internal capabilities: the resources and competences, the sustained competitive advantage and the diagnosis of strategic capability that will permit us to define Starbucks’ strengths and weaknesses. [Thus, owing to the results obtained, we endeavour to recommend Starbucks some new and relevant elements...
