...DQ1 WK 1 The article talks mainly about how Microsoft has grown over the years. The .Net Framework is simple, secure, and robust it can accommodate any type of software that is device dependent and would possibly need manipulation of data. People often compare .Net to Java when it comes to programming language. Unfortunately this comparison is not valid, integration is possible without having to rebuild like in Java. The .Net Framework manages memory to prevent overflow and requires the use of verifiable safety so there is less data corruption. With .Net error handling is also much easier. In this article it also states that .Net has a much simpler application build, debugging and deployment platform which would make the program more user friendly. Programmers are able to view the application while they are building it. .Net is versatile and makes programming a lot faster. DQ2 WK1 In the article a difference was in the refactoring section, it states that with XP the programmers revise their product designs and the underlying architecture on a continuous basis which would allow accommodations to new functionalities and also put a stop to redundancy in coding. With Microsoft, well everything is pretty much based off observations and interactions with the product. By creating daily builds, the Microsoft types believe this is how they are able to show progress before releasing the Beta version. In another section, “Simple Design” states that with XP teams the process is “ Build...

...Cutlassfish (Trichiurus lepturus) is a cosmopolitan coastal species fished in warm and warm-temperate waters around the world. The occurrence of cutlassfish near thermal fronts in this latitudinal range indicates that oceanographic and biological interactions can be critical to define optimum environmental conditions for this species(Nakamura and Parin, 1993). Cutlassfish is more abundant at temperatures of over 16°C and in the 40-120 m depth range. From late spring to fall, juveniles of 5-30 cm total length (TL) have been found in coastal waters, subadults (TL 30-70 cm) mainly in inner shelf waters and adults (TL >70 cm) in coastal, inner, and outer shelf waters (Martins and Haimovici, 1997). The cutlassfish is one of the most representative fish species in Eastern Sea as well as in Korean peninsula. In Korea, cutlassfish is used as a traditional food, a rich source of calcium, n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, and vitamins. Cutlassfish is one of the most expensive fish species especially in Jeju Island, South Korea due to its specific habitat conditions. However, reliable studies have not been carried out regarding cutlassfish muscle proteins and its hydrolysates to evaluate the biological activities. Most of the protein hydrolysates obtained from plant and animal sources have been reported to contain various biological activities. Many of these bioactive peptides have been used to develop novel drugs and healthy food material with a higher nutritional value containing numerous...

...The Great Salt Lake INT1 Task 2 (Ha’Eri, 2004) Location ● The Great Salt Lake is located in northern Utah. (USGS, n.d., b) Biotic Components ● ● ● ● ● ● ● Brine Shrimp Brine Flies Algae Ducks Geese Gulls Pelicans (Wikipedia, n.d.) (Wurstsbaugh, 2014, d) Abiotic Components -Surface elevation 4200 feet above sea level -Depth averages 14 feet -Railroad crosses through the lake -Averages 15.7 inches of precipitation per year -Water temperature varies from below freezing to 80 degrees Fahrenheit. (Gwynn, 2002) Current Human Impact -Humans building a railway through The Great Salt Lake has divided the lake and caused that half of the lake has a higher salinity percentage than the other half. This is caused by the South end has more fresh water flowing into it and the North end has more salt water flowing through it. Because of the railway, it doesn’t pass through to the other side. The percentage of salinity is affecting the brine shrimp eggs harvest. It has decreased. The residents in the Salt Lake area use more water than the average people in the country. Not conserving and using so much water is affecting the water levels of the Great Salt Lake. The lake is getting smaller each year. (USGS, 1999) Future Human Impacts -If current water usage trends continue, the lake will continue to get smaller and smaller. With future growth of the area expected to triple in the next 50 years, Utahns are facing...

...We are living in a world where business is evolving the advancement in technology has seen companies expand there client base to a global level. This paper will discuss the standardized marketing strategy of IKEA and evaluate the issues surrounding standardized marketing on a global scale by relating it to multinational corporations alike. Using Hofstede’s Culture theory, it will also discuss whether our cultures of the world are becoming similar, or are we seeing a direct reflection of clever marketing. What standardization (and adaption) could be considered to be: the offering of identical product lines at identical prices through identical distribution systems supported by identical promotional programs in several different countries. (Buzzell, 1968 p 103) Although IKEA practice a standardized marketing strategy in some aspects of the marketing mix such as product, price and place they are certainly not entirely standardized when it comes to their promotion strategy, this is evident when looking at the move into China where they were forced to adapt to Chinese cultural differences. IKEA’s target market has always been ‘everyone’ in other countries however the target market was extremely different in China, the main target is women as they are considered the decision makers and were born in the ‘one child policy’ generation. This group was identified as being impulsive, easy to influence and committed to leading foreign consumer brands (Johannson 2009 p. 44). Due to the...

...Who knew that just a quick kiss, a sip from someone’s cup, or being hit by collateral sneeze particles could spell disaster? “Mononucleosis” (mono), more commonly known as the kissing disease, is a disease that affects a person’s liver. Mono is mainly caused by the “Epstein-Barr virus” [EBV] which is a saliva based virus (Mayo Clinic 5). “Dr. E. Pfeiffer” was the first scientist to fully research this disease “in 1889” (Sleepydust 2). It is quite easy to become infected with EBV, which in turn, may result in the contraction of mono. The majority of people will succumb to this disease at some point during their life, and once they have it, it remains in their body forever. For some people, “…it is possible to be exposed to and infected with EBV without becoming sick,” but this is not always the case (Kids Health Organization 4)....

...January 25, 2014 Epidemiology Paper: Mononucleosis Mononucleosis (mono) is most commonly known as the kissing disease. Mono usually occurs in adolescents and young adults. The virus that causes mono is carried in saliva and passed though such activities as kissing, coughing, sneezing, and sharing of cups and eating utensils. Mono is not a fatal disease, but it can cause weeks of uncomfortable symptoms. Although there is no cure for mono, there are many type of therapies that can help to alleviate some of the symptoms. (Mayo Clinic Staff, 2012) Description and Demographic Mononucleosis is a disease caused by one of the most common human viruses in the world, the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). According to the University of Maryland Medical Center, “mono effects about 45 of 100,000 people, mostly teens and young adults” (University of Maryland Medical Center, 2013). A person with mono is contagious for several days before symptoms begin to appear and for some time after. The virus is spread through saliva by kissing, sharing drinks and food, sharing cups and utensils, sharing toothbrushes, and sharing toys that have drool on them. Many people are infected with the virus and have no symptoms; those that do suffer symptoms are usually teens and young adults. Once the virus is picked up it has an incubation period of four to six weeks (Mayo Clinic Staff, 2012) . The most common symptoms of mono are fever, fatigue, inflamed throat, strep throat, headache, swollen tonsils,...

...MONONUCLEOSIS Also known as “MONO” Mononucleosis is a common illness that can leave you feeling tired and weak for weeks or months. It goes away on its own, but lots of rest and good self-care can help you feel better. Illness usually caused by the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). Often seen in teens and young adults, children can get the virus, but it often goes unnoticed because their symptoms are mild. Mono can be spread through contact with saliva, mucus from the nose, throat and sometimes tears. This is known as the kissing disease. However, Mononucleosis isn’t as contagious as some infections, such as the common cold. If you have mono, it’s important to be careful of certain complications such as an enlarged spleen. Rest and adequate fluids are key to recovery. Epstein-Barr is a very common virus. About 85% to 90% of American adults have developed antibodies by the time they are 40 years old. Which means that they have been infected with the virus at some point in their lives. This Disease is usually diagnosed based on the patient’s symptoms such as: Fever, swollen tonsils, and swollen lymph nodes in your neck and arm pits, skin rash and strep throat that doesn’t get better with antibiotic use. The doctor may order blood tests, particularly the mono spot test. Other blood tests, such as a complete blood count, might be done to see if the number of lymphocytes is higher than normal. Occasionally, titers of antibodies against the viruses that cause mono may need to be done to confirm...

...Mononucleosis (mono) is a contagious disease spread through saliva, kissing, cough or sneeze, or sharing food or drinks (Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research [MFMER], 2016). In order to fully understand how Mono affects a person, one needs to look at the causes, symptoms, how it is transmitted, what complications come from it, and how it is treated. It will be discussed the mortality rate, morbidities involved, the incidence of obtaining Mono, and how prevalent it is. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (2014), the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is the most common cause of Mono with symptoms appear four to six weeks after someone gets infected by EBV. The symptoms for Mono include fatigue, a sore throat that may not get better with the use of antibiotics, fever, swollen lymph nodes in the neck or arm pits, swollen tonsils, headache, skin rash, and possibly a soft and swollen spleen (MFMER, 2016). Enlarged spleen or liver are less common but may continue to be enlarged even after the patient has less fatigue (CDC, 2014). Symptoms usually go away roughly around four to six weeks, some people may still have fatigue for several more weeks, and some symptoms can last up to six months or longer (CDC, 2014). According to the Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research (2016), in certain cases, the spleen can become enlarged and even rupture causing pain in the left upper quadrant of the abdomen leading to surgery. A patient with Mono may also...

...Analysing advantages and disadvantages of banking reforms in Mekong countries in comparative perspective Introduction In a number of transition economies the banking systems are at different stages of the transformation process from mostly planned to market economy structures. But the past two decades led to further distinctions in developments within these countries. This paper will review recent banking reform efforts in the lower Mekong countries (LMCs), including Cambodia, the Lao People’s Democratic Republic, and Vietnam. Associated by close economic and cultural links, the three LMCs have tackled the challenges of both economic development and transition to more market-based economies. These links are apparent as they are some of the countries that make up the Greater Mekong Subregion (GMS) which is a natural economic area bound together by the Mekong River. In 1992, with the assistance from the Asian Development Bank (ADB), these countries entered into a program of subregional economic cooperation designed to enhance economic relations among them. It is important to explain the economies of these countries to lay the grounds for analysis of banking reforms. It has become clear that increasingly, modernization and industrialization are emerging from a process of transition and transformation. The Mekong countries are gradually shifting from subsistence farming to more diversified economies, and to more open, market-based systems. In parallel with this are the growing...

... Tremco still faced numerous problems ranging from poor market share due to the high pricing position, to a lack of consumer awareness and knowledge due to a poor promotional strategy. To add to this, Canadian Tire which accounted for 25% of all hardware sales in Canada was reluctant to cooperate with Tremco. In the effort of improving Tremco's status quo, two marketing strategies and implementation plans are introduced in following report. Market Audit For a detailed list of marketing parameters, see Appendix 1.1. Product: Tremco’s Mono Foam line up of products started with a 350g can of expanding insulation foam and later had an addition of a 935g can. This is compared to the three common sizes of foam in the overall market, a small 350g can and medium size 620g can and a large 935g can. The smallest size sold 733 thousand, whereas, the medium and large sizes sold 604 and 304 thousand respectively in 1990. The brand name “mono” is said to represent quality to its customers, however the product is not significantly different than its competitors. This creates problems, as potential customers cannot justify buying Tremco’s product over other products. The product is also relatively unknown, with 20% of consumers being aware of the product. The aware population saw the product completely different from other Tremco lines like...

...2014). The most frequent mode of transmission is intimate salivary contact. It can also be transmitted from shared drinking and eating utensils, toothbrushes, etc. Mono is not likely to spread by sneezing or from hard surface contact. It is also known as Glandular Fever, because it affects the lymph nodes in the neck, arm pits and groin. It may last anywhere from one to eight weeks, and some people suffer from mononucleosis for months at a time. It is all dependent of one’s immune system. Recuperation is a slow process, which can demand twice as much sleep and resting periods. This disease can drain strength and energy and as well muscle loss. Balance is also affected. Usually exposure to this virus happens at late adolescence for half the population. The peak incidence for girls is 14-16 and boys 16-18. After initial contact with the virus, there is an incubation period of 4-6 weeks and then the symptoms start appearing. Symptoms include fever, sore throat and lymph adenopathy. Fevers may reach as high as 102 degrees Fahrenheit and may remain high for 3-4 weeks. Other symptoms include enlargement of the spleen and liver, fatigue, loss of appetite, periorbital edema, petechiae, and a fine rash. Clinically white blood cell counts and liver enzymes are elevated, and anemia may occur with low platelet counts. Mono is not a fatal disease, but because it is a virus there is no antivirals to treat this disease. Children are advised to avoid contact sports for 6 weeks after...
