...arm movement: outsweep, insweep, and recovery. The movement starts with the outsweep. From the initial position, the hands sink a little bit down and the palms face inward, and the hands rotate outward and move apart. During the outsweep the arms stay almost straight and parallel to the surface. The outsweep is followed by the insweep, where the hands point down and push the water backwards. The elbows stay in the horizontal plane through the shoulders. The hands push back until approximately the vertical plane through the shoulders. At the end of the insweep the hands come together with facing palms in front of the chest and the elbows are at the side at the body. In the recovery phase the hands are moved forward again into the initial position under water. The entire arm stroke starts slowly, increases speed to the peak arm movement speed in the insweep phase, and slows down again during recovery. The goal is to produce maximum thrust during the insweep phase, and minimum drag during the recovery phase. As a variant, it is possible to recover the arms over water. This reduces drag, but requires more power. Some competitive swimmers use this variant in competition. Another variant is the underwater pull-down, similar to the push phase of a butterfly stroke. This stroke continues the insweep phase and pushes the hands all the way to the back to the sides of the hip. This greatly increases the push from one stroke, but also makes recovery more difficult. This style is well suited...

...society that puts blame and shame on the obese. But an involvement with a 12 step program put her on a path to truth of self, recovery and eventually life changing weight loss. “Prior to being introduced to 12 steps, my life was about food and the acquisition of it,” said Amber. Only 48 months ago Amber weighed nearly 320 lbs with a dress size of 26. Tired of fad diets and breaking self promises, she turned to the help of the well-known 12 steps for addiction and as she put it ‘got real’ about her food addiction. She found a long term solution for her food issues in understanding the science of addiction to food and by committing herself to the 12 steps of addiction recovery. Both Amber and her colleague Dr. Vera Tarman agree that weight loss is only a result of the recovery process for the food addict. Amber went from sneaking food and staying away from public interactions to becoming an advocate for food addiction in the public eye, truly a real life success story. “The process of surrendering to addiction is difficult for most people,” said Dr. Tarman, Canada’s foremost food addiction expert. “For those people like Amber who embrace the science behind food addiction and the need to change the way they think and act; the results of recovery can be remarkable.” Today Amber has lost over 150 lbs and more importantly is totally committed to the recovery process, including abstinence from sugars and starch. “It’s one day at a time for me, like it is for most people recovering...

There is a formal part of our Alcoholics Anonymous philosophy of life is four absolutes,the twelve steps,and the twelve traditions. Our sobriety had to become number one to gain a spirituality,mental,also physical well being while working the program. Because the Absolutes are not specifically repeated in our Steps or Traditions, some of us are inclined to forget them. Yet in many old time groups where the solid spirit of our fellowship is so strongly exemplified, the Absolutes receive frequent mention. A twelve-step program is a set of guiding principles outlining a course of action for recovery from addiction, compulsion, or other behavioral problems. The Twelve Traditions of twelve-step programs provide guidelines for relationships between the twelve-step groups, members, other groups, the global fellowship, and society at large. Often there are special beginner's, or "First Step,"meetings that are attended both by newcomers and those who have been sober a long time. The home group provides a foundation where they go every week, so people get to know them. Part of the home group functions are...

...Mawuena Cedric Gbedey BUSINESS ECONOMICS PROJECT II CHAPTER 16, QUESTION 5 Frictional unemployment is defined by Investopedia as “Unemployment that is always present in the economy, resulting from temporary transitions made by workers and employers or from workers and employers having inconsistent or incomplete information” and gives another example as a first-time job seeker may lack the resources or efficiency for finding the company that has the job that is available and suitable for him or her. As a result this person does not take other work, temporarily holding out for the better-paying job. Retrieved from http://www.investopedia.com/terms/f/frictionalunemployment.asp#axzz1ZfufVuVW on 10/01/2011. Wisegeek.com also defined functional unemployment as natural phenomena and is viewed as beneficial to both the economy and the worker. They went ahead to explain that any time someone is between jobs, this is considered frictional unemployment. Some common examples include craftspeople who are laid off between projects and people who quit their jobs to relocate or to seek out better employment. Retrieved from http://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-frictional-unemployment.htm on 10/01/2011. Based on the definitions given above, it is quite clear that frictional unemployment is inevitable.

...behavior due to the extreme feeling of loss. The hurt is inevitable, but so is the recovery. It can seem overwhelming at first, but taking it a step at a time, a day at a time, will make it easier to move on into a happier world. Breaking up is like trying to recover from an addiction, or breaking a habit. Even when a relationship has ended, the connection that was shared between two people is not easily erased from the mind or body. Breaking the "ex habit" requires self-control and self-compassion. First, accept that it is over and take the time to grieve. It is okay to cry. Crying is cathartic and relieves pain. Show self-compassion. Understand that there are unplanned events in life that are painful, but that people get through events with resilience and help from others. Second, end all contact. Just like there were steps of courtship, there are steps to wean off from a relationship. Delete numbers from phones and delete their account off Facebook and other social networks. Being friends with an ex and knowing about their life will only hurt more because of the constant reminder of the current status: No longer together. Third, put away all reminders of an ex. Delete emails, photos, or stash them away where it cannot be seen. Looking at photos and reminiscing of the past will not help with moving forward in life without that person. Being constantly reminded of the past delays the road to recovery. Then, enlist some support from loved ones. Recovering from a painful event...

...Applying Information Security and SDLC to Business Team Names Here BIS/320 Date Applying Information Security and SDLC to Business Amazon.com - Bookstore Amazon.com is known as one of the largest retail online stores in the world. Of course this online retail store was not always the largest and had a shaky slow start because the online layout was not eye-catching. In 1994, Jeff Bezos, who founded Amazon.com started his business in his garage in Washington State selling books. However, in 1994, Nick Hanauer took an interest in Bezos business and invested $40,000, and in 1995 Tom Alburg invested $100,000 to join this venture. After receiving these investments Bezos decided to create a website that would be more appealing to customers and hoped to get his business to take off. Over the next three years Amazon increase in book sales, which amazed Bezos because after an analysis was completed he was shocked to find out outside of local customers who were purchasing books from Amazons but customers around the world. In 1997, Amazon reached revenue in the amount of $15.7 million. By 1998, Amazon was starting to show signs of success when Bezos started listing new products for the customers could purchase online (Amazon.com Mission Statement, 2012).

...Disaster recovery plans allows and gives the opportunity to a business to be able to recoup from any number of disasters, whether it may be a natural disaster or a fault of equipment to include power loss. These plans can be fairly basic with a goal and summary of what is to happen in the event of a disaster, to intensely involved and well spelled out plans that break down the summary, personal, intent, goal, and a timeline of events to follow. While disasters are unforeseen events that a business may never see or have to implement their plan, it allows them to be setup for success if it were to happen and not be doomed for failure in hopes of it not being a possibility. For this report, contact was made with Richmond County in Augusta Georgia to their IT department to discuss their disaster recovery plan. Some organizations are well equipped and have staffed members that specialize and have sole intent on being the disaster recovery planner and implementer. Others may contract out to other businesses to provide support and guidance on the matter. In this case, Richmond County has looked to a company called intelliSystems to provide hands-on assistance in their disaster recovery plan. IntelliSystems is a local company to the area with a mission to help “many businesses rid themselves of technology worries so that they can concentrate on growing their businesses and realizing their goals” (intelliSystems, 2015). They do this by providing key areas of: Microsoft Small Business...

...Recovery Model in MFT Steven W. Place Northcentral University Recovery Model in MFT The Recovery Model Introduction If the famous quote by Heraclitus, “The only thing that is constant is change,” is true, then one must wonder how the mental health field resisted change for so long. In light of the modern age, characterized by scientific methodologies, the mental health field advanced rapidly. Amazingly, the human condition could be put to test, understood and categorized. Sadly, anything falling outside the “norm” became “abnormal.” Once a person was identified as “abnormal,” they were the lucky recipients of a label they carried with them for life, or until they “recovered.” Mental health labels carry with them a certain stigma that communicates to the person they are different, perhaps less of a person and that “normal” may never be a reality with their “illness.” Recovery would be based on becoming symptom-free, or at the very least, a significant reduction in symptoms (Gehart, 2012). The mental health field has experienced tremendous growth in terms of understanding the plethora of conditions people experience, as well as in treatment of those conditions. However, one thing remained unchanged until recently. The idea behind recovery shifted from coercive treatment to person-centered change (Onken, et al, 2007). Gehart states is this way, “instead of using the medical paradigm of disease, the recovery paradigm approached mental “illness” using a social model of disability...

...Disaster Recovery Plans The headquarters of Hill Crest Corporation, a private company with $15.5 million in annual sales, is located in California. Hill Crest provides for its 150 clients an online legal software service that includes data storage and administrative activities for law offices. The company has grown rapidly since its inception 3 years ago, and its data processing department has expanded to accommodate this growth. Because Hill Crest’s president and sales personnel spend a great deal of time out of the office soliciting new clients, the planning of the IT facilities has been left to the data processing professionals. Hill Crest recently moved its headquarters into a remodeled warehouse on the outskirts of the city. While remodeling the warehouse, the architects retained much of the original structure, including the wooden-shingled exterior and exposed wooden beams throughout the interior. The minicomputer distributive processing hardware is situated in a large open area with high ceilings and skylights. The openness makes the data processing area accessible to the rest of the staff and encourages a team approach to problem solving. Before occupying the new facility, city inspectors declared the building safe; that is, it had adequate fire extinguishers, sufficient exits, and so on. In an effort to provide further protection for its large database of client information, Hill Crest instituted a tape backup procedure that automatically backs up the database...
