...A laboratory information system (LIMS) is a software that allows you to manage samples and data to improve lab efficiency. Some of the key features that support a laboratory’s operations are data tracking support, flexible architecture and work flow. Security includes alarms and door locks also known as security codes. Alarms will need to be logged as well as logging the security codes on a protected system. This is so managers of a laboratory will know which alarms have been set off, security alarms are useful to be logged on to a LIMS as it may need to be used on an overview in a map layout of the laboratory, people will know where the alarms are located. A schematic map is needed in a laboratory as nay new employee’s or members of the laboratory will need to know where to go and where certain things are such as utilities (water, gas and electric) and fire exits in case of an emergency. Offices should be logged on a laboratory information system as every member of the laboratory information management system as every member of the laboratory will need to know whose office each one is, where every office is located in the laboratory. Heating systems are in the office as well as any vents that run through offices this is important as it can be logged on to a map of the building and is useful as this will allow oxygen to constantly be in a long supply for whoever is using the office. Space will need to be logged (M3) within the system as some activities may require more space...

...have facilitated challenges with in health care. To educate our clients there must be recognition of traditional heritage practices. The Heritage Assessment Tool has been devised to discover cultural characteristics of individuals, families along with communities. This tool allows one to understand and respect the role of cultural awareness in health and illness. There is a framework for evaluation of physical, mental and spiritual values and beliefs in which outlines health maintenance, protection, and restoration. The difference in values and beliefs grants an impact on wellness, disease and death in selected cultures. Upon assessing heritages there has been an overview of religion, ethnic background, language and an identification of support systems. Information has been gathered to present cultural lifestyles, traditions and health practices in a nonsterotypical manner. Utilizing the Heritage assessment tool this paper will reflect the cultural heritage of three different cultural practices .The three cultural diverse backgrounds, which will be discussed, are Hispanics, Filipinos (Asians) and Southern Afro Americans in which the later describes the writer’s heritage.

Section 101 of the consititution states that the constitutional status of the Supreme Court of Canada provides for the constitution, maintence and organization of a general court of appeal for Canada.

The Supreme Court of Canada became an essential part of Canada’s judicial committee after the abolition of the Privy Council. Reference Points would “support the conclusion that section 42(1)(d) must operate so as to limit, in some fashion, the ability of the federal Parliament to effect changes to the Supreme Court of Canada without the consent of the provinces”.21 It may well be that, whatever the differences of scholars as to details and approach in terms of the extent to which (if at all) the Supreme Court Act or its basic...

...1. Configure views that will help users navigate libraries effectively and find the documents they require. * Use folders only if you need to scope unique permissions on documents or if you need to make a subset of documents easily offline-able by Microsoft Outlook. * If your library has more than 2,000 items, be sure you remove the out-of-the-box default view, which shows all items. Add views with filters so that no view returns more than 2,000 items. Paging and grouping doesn't count. You must use a filter. (BTW, in its sneak peek of SharePoint 2010, Microsoft announced that SharePoint 2010 will have large-list support, so this won't need to be done much longer.) 1. Usability. Nested folder structure is only known to the person who created it. Also, too many sub-folders tend to “hide” things. 2. URL length limitation. SharePoint adds all folder and sub-folder names to URL. Overall URL length is limited to around 260 characters. You are out of luck if you create too many sub-folders. 3. File URL. Moving file from one folder to another means change of file URL. 4. Security. Maintaining Security by folders in SharePoint is an administrative nightmare. Don’t even think about doing it! 5. User experience. User Experience (navigation, finding the documents) just stinks with folders (it is so 1990’s!) 6. File duplication. With folders you can deposit multiple copies of same file into different locations – not a good thing when you try to organize documents and data...

...FEDERALIST PAPERS Ramon Chavez P5 Debates were going crazy throughout the United States about whether the new Constitution was an improvement or a disaster that will soon ruin the nation. Federalists were actually people who basically agreed with the Constitution and a strong government. The Federalists were basically way much wealthier and more educated Americans than the anti-federalist well most of them like John Adams, George Washington, Benjamin Franklin, James Madison, and Alexander Hamilton. Anti-Federalists were actually people who agreed with a weaker government, but liked a stronger state legislature. Yet not all of them liked the Articles of Confederation, but none of them wanted the new Constitution to be ratified so in a way they wanted to make their own document basically. Poor classes in the West also supported the patriots like Samuel Adams and Patrick Henry in which they were actually very good at influencing people, like they were very charismatic.Anti-Federalists feared that a stronger national government would one day destroy the liberties Americans had won in the Revolution. They also worried that the new Constitution didn’t list any specific rights for the people in which that was maybe one of the main reasons why they went against the federalist. Many of the smaller states quickly approved the Constitution because it gave them more way power in the new legislative branch than they had under the Articles of Confederation in...

...individual’s background will allow a health care professional to build plans that will be achievable. Achieving optimal health requires assessment and treating the individual human being. Reflecting on Jean Watson’s theory around caring, “Theory specifically involves the caring of a person’s mind, body, and soul” (Zerwekh & Claborn, 2009). Watson’s 10 carative factors represent the human caring values, the following factors are essential and necessary to understand and treat the whole-human being: Maintain humanistic view, Promote faith and hope, sensitivity of oneself and others, development of trust, acceptance of feelings positive or negative, systematic approach to problem solving, teaching and learning, create a healing environment, support the gratification of needs, allow for spiritualism. Recognizing the Most Precious and Powerful Source is the Human Being (Edelman, Mandel, & Elizabeth. 2014), defines culture “as an element of ethnicity, refers to integrated patterns of human behavior that include the language thoughts, communications, actions, customs, beliefs, values, and institutions of racial, ethnic, religious, or social groups”. An understanding definition of culture and Watson’s 10 carative factors will allow health care providers to be successful in use of Heritage Assessment while developing for health maintenance, health promotion, and health restoration.

...Age-Related Macular Degeneration As a person ages their visual feedback can be affected by many factors. A specific condition that can interfere with an individuals occupational performance is age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Macular degeneration is a progressive physical breakdown of the macula, which is part of the retina. There are two forms of macular degeneration, “wet” and “dry”. Eighty to ninety percent of patients have the “dry” form. Both wet and dry AMD can drastically impact an individuals ability to maintain independence, complete daily ADL’s, IADL’s, and BADL’s. The “dry” form involves deterioration of the macula, that is found in the center of the retina. This form is also associated with the formation of drusen (small yellow deposits) under the macula. The drusen build up leads to thinning and drying of the macula. This form typically progresses slower than the “wet” form. This type of AMD develops gradually, and symptoms can often be mistaken as typical aging. An individual may find they need increased lighting for reading, difficulty adapting to low light levels, increased blurriness, difficulty recognizing faces, and gradually increasing haziness of central vision (Coleman, Chan, Ferris & Chew, 2008). The “wet” form of AMD effects approximately 10-15% of individuals with this condition. In this type there is abnormal blood vessel growth under the retina and macula. This abnormal growth of blood vessels is known as choroidal neovascularization, or...

...5 years previously and has been in operating for 30 years. Its operations involve the production of high grade lumber products from raw logs received in its yard. Its finished lumber products are sold in an international market that is very price competitive. Treetop relies on a central marketing company, which also represents several of its competitive mills, to market its products. Product packaging and presentation is the one important difference in defining the company’s sales in an international competitive market with little differences in product offerings. Internally the company operations are divided into six operational departments, overseen by one general manager, 16 supervisors and support staff along with 180 unionized employees. Shifts are rotated and maintence employees work a night shift so operations are ongoing 24 hours. The company has seen increased productivity in the departments of planning, sawmill and the department levels of productivity in the boom, shipping, and maintenance departments have remained constant. The one area of decreasing productivity is the packaging department. This is important as the presentation and packaging of product produced is what Treetop Forest Products depends on for sales. Treetop’s marketing agency has instituted a monthly packaging quality award with all its clients it represents to increase package quality, which Treetops packaging department has previously won but now have seen decreases in ratings.

Be it planned or unplanned change is one constant in business as we know it. An organizations ability to adapt or handle the change will determine that organizations success. Some changes are very large scale and some are not. This paper will examine a change proposal and action plan to make the change an overall success and smooth transition. Guidelines for change are a necessary part of a successful change process. Planned change is a set of activities in an organization that are intentional and goal-oriented (Nameer, 2008). Proposed Change Brownstone Square is an owner run Homeowners Association in Phoenix, AZ. The association manages paperwork for sales, the grounds, owner complaints, and accounts receivables and payables. Owners make a monthly payment of $125.00 to the association for the services provided to them as outlined in the associations’ contracts with each of them when they joined the community. Overall the association provides services as promised in a timely manner consistently. The homeowners on the other hand do not always make their monthly payments on time, consistently. The association faces the problem of missed payments and homeowners who are frustrated with the very antiquated system of having to “snail mail” a monthly check to the association. Homeowners have approached the...

...Information Governance S. Crew Professor: DR. Griffin Date: November 22, 2012 2 Assignment 3: Information Governance 1. Analyze the primary causes of information management / information technology project failures and recommend at least three (3) best practices that could be adopted by any organization to avoid such failure in the future. According to our text (Glandon, Smaltz & Slovensky 2008) “the single greatest cause of project failure is poor executing”. Other primary causes of information management / information technology project failure include; “Poor planning” “Unclean goals and objectives” “Objective changes during project” “Unrealistic times or resource estimate” “Lack of executive support and user involvement” “Failure to communicate and act as a team” “Inappropriate skill” (Neimat & Taimor). Three best practices that I recommend that could be adopted by any organization to avoid such failures in the future include; 1) Organizations should “Plan the work by utilizing a “Project Definition Document”; this encompasses a definition of all details of the project; it also is the staple for the project to be performed (Mochal, 2009) 2) Organizations should “Create a Planning Horizon”; which encompasses developing the project plan after instituting the project definition, which also constitutes step by step procedures for developing the project and overseeing the project (Mochal, 2009). 3) Organizations should...

...program, “drug related deaths have been reduced by 50%, and approximately 1,300 dependent users are now given maintenance doses of heroin via 23 specialized clinics, which has resulted in an 82% drop in patients selling heroin on the streets (Dreifuss, 2016, p. A1). Furthermore, needle and syringe programs in other countries have significantly reduced secondary complications of HIV and other blood-borne viruses found among needle drug users. In 2016, the United States lifted the ban on federal funding for needle exchange programs, but the funds cannot be used to purchase needles or other supplies; rather, funding is for salaries and counseling (Dreifuss, 2016). With a lack of funding and most likely the support of the American public, needle exchange programs and drug maintence clinics are not likely alternatives for reducing opioid drug addictions. Many Americans would view the drug assists clinics like Switzerland’s as just another source for drugs and provide addicts an excuse not to become sober. With the overdose problem growing every year in Anytown, we need to address the problem by forming a Taskforce to attack it from several different angles to best serve the community. The Taskforce will need to be comprised of representatives from fire, police, health department, lawmakers, hospitals, rehabilitation centers, and other stakeholders. Each organization views the problem from different angles allowing for a comprehensive plan to be developed. The Taskforce has identified...
