...Answer the following questions in 100-200 words each: • What are the different ways in which we evaluate people? One way that we evaluate people is by their personality and appearance. A person’s appearance is the first thing that we see followed by their personality. Although I think that people’s appearances can sometimes lead to stereotyping people. A stereotype is a set of characteristics presumed to be shared by all members of a social category. Stereotyping people is not always correct and you may be surprised once you get to know the person. This is why you will hear people say to try and make a good first impression. Many people will draw their own conclusions based of the first impression of people. We evaluate people by many other ways as well such as gender, culture, and ethnicity. • How do these factors play a role in our expectations of other people? These factors can sometimes prevent us from getting to know a person or family based off the way they look or our preconceived thoughts. We may expect a person to be mean and hateful because they are dressed a certain way when they may be the nicest person you could ever get to know. We may look at a person and they way they are dressed and they way they act and think they may be uneducated while if we spoke with them we may find out that they are in fact very educated. Many people look at me and think I am “stuck up” or a “goody-goody” but once they get...

...Staphylococcus As per wiki encyclopedia Etymologically, Staphylococcus derives from the Greek word “Staphyle” meaning a bunch of grapes, and “kokkos” means berries. Those bacteria under the microscope appear like a branch of grapes or berries. 1. Staphylococcus aureus is the pathogen that causes this infection called staph infections. It resides on the skin, in the mouth, the genital, anus, and at the beginning of the nasal area. They multiply rapidly to form a colony, and they harmlessly occupied these areas of your body. As soon as the skin is torn or broken, they rush in to invade that surface, and if not quickly treated they causes significant damage through serious infections. The bacteria appear in many forms and are able to create multiple diseases at once. For example acne, boils, styes (infections of the eyelids) are the result of their action. They can be the cause of urinary track infections, and methicillin resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). These Bacteria build up strength naturally, and they will not dissipate with the common antibiotics treatment such as penicillin, special medications are required. 2. Infectious agent evolve within food and water in many forms; for example, when leaving meals and beverages exposed out in the air after a few hours it releases a toxin that creates a colony of staphylococcus aureus. Unfortunately, they are too complex to see with naked eyes to pick them apart before eating. When cooking, use patience to complete the...

...Running heading: Course Project Week 7 Course Project Week 7 From a moderately successful retailer to one of the largest retailers in the world Wal-Mart has grown right before our very eyes. As America’s largest employer, Wal-Mart employs over “1.6 million employees” (Wakeup Wal-Mart, 2010). With that said one would assume that this Fortune 500 Company would have a respectable compensation and or benefit plan for their hard working employees, but sadly this is not the case. Unfortunately although Wal-Mart is famously known for their ridiculously price they are also well known for providing disastrous healthcare coverage plans to their employees. For instance Wal-Mart offers low premiums to their employees for their family coverage. Even though this may seem like a dream come true for many, the fact of the matter is that their high annual deductable cancels low premiums out. In fact, theses annual deductibles are so high that most employees find themselves having to pay thousands of dollars before Wal-Mart’s insurance decides to kick in to pay. Regrettably because of this many employees are forced to seek government help in the form of Medicaid and other subsidized care in order to obtain and afford their medical needs. What is even more alarming though is the way Wal-Mart plans to right their employee healthcare wrongs. To offset their current health care plans, Wal-mart executive are proposing the cutting of “retirement benefits by at least $200 million...

...Tools used by Project Managers Lisa M. Wondolowski Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University Tools used by Project Managers Formally, an organization and/or company typically would decide to commence a project exertion and appoint the project necessary resources to a prudently selected person and inferred that the individual will use some form of project management. Nonetheless, organizational implications were of little importance in the past. Although the necessary concepts of project management are straightforward, applying these approaches is to an existing organization is not. Richard P. Olsen, in his article "Can Project Management Be Defined?" defined project management as, "The application of a collection of tools and techniques- to direct the use of diverse resources toward the accomplishment of a unique, complex, one-time task within time, cost, and quality constraints. Each task requires a particular mix of these tools and techniques structured to fit the task environment and life cycle (from conception to completion) of the task." (Adams, 1997) Conclusively, employing project management methodologies and technologies decreases the diversion of routine business activities in many cases by placing under a single command all of the technologies, resources and skills necessary to effectuate the project. The dexterity that is vital depends upon each specific project and the assets available at that time. There are ten key elements...

Table of Contents Course Description (Catalog) | This course introduces students to writing computer programs. The class presents the principles of structured programming using the BASIC language, perhaps the most common language for personal computers. Because of its ease of use it is ideal as a first programming language and runs on both the PC and Macintosh platforms. The course is designed for people without previous programming experience who do not necessarily plan on becoming professional programmers. However, the knowledge gained in the class can be applied later to other languages such as C and Java. Participants learn to solve problems logically by breaking them into smaller pieces, which can then be solved. Topics include: introduction to computing - how does a computer work?; input and output - getting information to and from the user; variables and expressions - performing arithmetic; data...
