...Last working week Biggest due date is approaching. Little bit over 24 hours left and semester is over for you My advice is to submit Power Point Presentation on Blackboard drop-box even you successfully uploaded it to web server (in case if link to Power Point stop working). You do not have to! You can submit your Power Point with your web page as a link! Some students want to submit Power Point using Blackboard to be on save side. Too much to loose! Web page is your Final Project. Most of you are about to finish it. I know that, because I have received numerous questions by e-mail and saw many of you in my office. Most of you already submitted URL. Let me repeat: Do not try to be fancy with HTML project. I have listed all necessary TAGs to complete all requirements. Just read the project entirely! Idea of this project to do your own research on the Internet, that why we are not providing extra help and tutoring. In general, ITEC 1301 is taken by freshmen. From our department point of view ITEC 1301 (and its Final Project) is evaluation if you are ready to take classes in our Department. Talk to our seniors. They are thinking that ITEC 1301 was easiest class and in the same time was a great preparation for future classes. Look forward to see your power points and web pages! Please check your URL before submitting on some one computer. Make sure it is still pure HTML code. Sometime, your free server is messing up your code so badly – it hard to recognize that it was written...

...Technology is all around us. We have become dependent on it. Could you imagine a day without your cell phone or computer? These devises have become, “attached to our hips” so to speak. I have heard plenty of people say, “I could not live without my cell phone” or “I would be lost without my computer.” Right now this is not something that people do not take very seriously, it is just an expression they us to express how important these devices have become to them. We all have become dependent on technology; most everything today requires technology to function making it hard to live a normal life without it today. Technology has become both a blessing and a curse, the problem is finding out if it is more of a blessing then a curse. Have you ever asked the question “can I live without technology?” To answer that question fully we would have to see how technology affects the mind and body. You would think that technology would have no effect on a person, when really it affects us more than you might realize. It depends on how you use the technology. Technology can help shape what defines you mentally and physically, if you let it. Put simply if you get use to technology making life easier then you are prone to become less active. Simple example, before computers if you wanted to know what was going on in the news, and the news was not on TV at that time then you would have to go to a newspaper stand and get a newspaper. This simple act required you to get up walk to your car drive...

...Conversation 1: Simon stops typing his email , refreshing himself and courteously smiles at Samantha as she enters Simon’s office with respectfully knocking. She looks a little bit tired and upset. Simon: Hello! How are you, Samantha? What can I do for you? Samantha: Hi, thank you Simon, I do have a request that I hope you can do me a favour. I sincerely want to ask for Friday off for some private reason and I am sorry about my presumptuous request. Simon promptly ask Samantha to take a sit first and drop into silence for a while . Simon: Never mind Samantha, there’s no need to be worried. I believe that you must have your sufficient reason but may hard to tell. And actually I do noticed you are in poor mental state very recently. But due to our roster have been already written and Friday is the busiest day in a week, would you mind to tell me what happen to you and let me give you a hand? Samantha are impressed by Simon’s amiable response. She takes a deep breath and replies in a slightly calm voice. Samantha: Thanks Simon, I am so grateful to your understanding and concern. In fact, my mother is flying into town for a quick visit, and she only just decided to do it ,according to some emotional issues that I recently come across and just make me can’t concentrate on my work both heart and soul. More importantly, my mother is getting old day by day and I haven’t seen her for a long time, it would mean a lot to me to be able to spend some quality time with her. I definitely...

...protect the ones that I love. I try my hardest to please everyone but I get stepped on. My sister would say I am to kind for my own good but I am a hard worker and I do not give up very easily. 2. What “constructive suggestions” would others offer to help you improve or change? My sister would offer me a back bone, to stand up when need be especially to my family, also more of what she would call a better leg to stand on. My friends say they like me for who I am and would not change it at all except better taste in men. 3. What do you most like about yourself? I like most about myself I am a very caring person, I do my best to make everything right or be there for someone. I am currently taking care of my grandmother while the rest of the family kind of expects me to with my background and I live here. I do it because I love her and no one else will they don’t care. 4. What do you most dislike in yourself and would like to change? What I dislike about myself the most, that I have a big heart. People with big hearts seem to get pushed around and stepped on or is that just me? It seems the bigger the heart the easier to break in my life. People take for granted that I am kind and loving and use it to their advantages. 5. What beliefs to you have about yourself that limit you? I do not really have a limit, I seem to keep going no matter how hard I fall or how hard it hurts. My saying is if I stop I will feel so I cannot stop to think. Weird huh. Natural for me to not think...

...experience. The theme of this update is: “Embrace Lean” Short of a 4-day stretch mid-month in which we had execution lapses, we had an overall successful month! Thank you for your continued passion towards delighting our GM Dealers. As Chad and Team continue to roll out Lean processes in the warehouse, we have seen the number of miss-sorts decrease. Team, good month on miss-sorts, but we can do better. Adherence to our process is the key. Sort team, I think you would agree, a miss-sort is more likely to occur when we have a lapse in process. Drivers, hopefully you are finding the curtains useful in the stop segregation strategy we have deployed. We are trying to make your jobs easier. Our miss-sort efforts are also paying dividends with overall claims reductions over the past 30 days. When I say ”Embrace Lean” above as a theme, please know we are not going back to the days of little to no process. We, as a company, have committed to be process driven and I, as the leader, have decided to Embrace Lean across our entire organization. We have to drive process each and every day and demand adherence to those procedures. We have started a layered audit process where we audit our procedures daily to make sure employees are properly trained, and that we are adhering to Standardized Work. This will assure we see the quality and productivity performance that we desire. This is also a great way for us to get your feedback and suggestions on how to improve our...

...Abstract This paper presents the results of a field experiment in which a random subsample of older workers was given information about key Social Security provisions, while a control group was not. The experiment was designed to examine whether it is possible to affect individual behavior using a relatively inexpensive informational intervention about the provisions of a public program and to explore what mechanisms underlie the behavior change. We find that our relatively mild intervention (sending an informational brochure and an invitation to a webtutorial) significantly increased labor force participation one year later and that this effect is driven by female subjects. The information intervention increased the perceived returns to working longer, especially among female respondents, which suggests that the behavioral response can be attributed at least in part to updated information about Social Security.

...Creating a Returning Student Concierge position would be beneficial for Chattahoochee Technical College Angela C. Reisen SNHU HEA 520 Abstract Chattahoochee Technical College (CTC) would benefit from having a Returning Student Concierge in several different ways. A Returning Student Concierge “is the single-point of contact at a college or university who helps returning adult students navigate the application, enrollment, and registration processes and overcome barriers to college success” (Education, 2010). Through my research, the amount of material I found on this subject was limited, but what I did find has shown me this position is well needed at CTC. Being that I work with current students on a daily basis I feel this is what our college needs to keep our retention rate up for the returning population of our student body. After reading my point of view, I hope you will be persuaded to believe in the importance of this position as well.

...UNIT 1. NEGOTIATIONS We met with representatives from the other company for over 4 hours yesterday. Jerry didn't waste any time. He took the bull by the horns and gave them our list of concerns right away. Then he asked for a list of their concerns and put both lists on the white board, so he could be sure we were all on the same page. He told the group that we were going to have to think out of the box and suggest creative solutions. We talked for over an hour. Jerry likes to shoot from the hip, which makes some people uncomfortable because he's very direct. Because we have such different corporate cultures, I didn’t think the two groups would ever see eye to eye on the goals. However, during the second hour, Jerry said he was willing to bend over backwards and work very hard to address their concerns. I think that impressed them. He talked about the advantages of the deal, and then he really laid it on the line and left the next move up to them. At one point, I thought the other company might back out and leave the table, but Jerry kept the discussion going. There was a lot of give and take; they finally met us halfway, and we cut the deal over dinner that night. I was surprised that our relationship as competitors didn’t get in the way. Jerry was able to convince them to look at those old conflicts as water under the bridge. He got them to focus on the future, and the result was clearly a win-win situation for both companies. 1. Take the bull by the horns: directly confront...

... Burns decided to emigrate to Jamaica so to raise the money required for this journey, he published his 'Poems in the Scottish Dialect' in 1786, which was an immediate success. He was persuaded not to leave Scotland by Dr Thomas Blacklock and in 1787 an Edinburgh edition of the poems was published. Ladies and Gentlemen, it falls to me, your allocated Lassie for this evening, to take up the challenge of replying to Ed's toast. And what a great toast it was, so I'd like to thank him very much for being so lovely about us Lassies. Unfortunately it falls to me to lower the tone and talk about men - not that I'm in any way suggesting those two things might go hand in hand. But no, Ed was absolutely right when he said men try to please us women. Yes, they try… But like Sigmund Frued, most men don't know what women want. Some of them get very strange ideas indeed, including Roberts Burns. He wrote a poem called 'Nine Inch Will Please a Lady' - I can't imagine what that's about… Then there's the other lot, with less inches, who think they can compensate by driving a really big car. No, sometimes men just don't get it right. Women might be accused of lack of logic, but we are quite good at dealing with the unexpected. Men sometimes flounder. Burn's father-in-law, for example, who upon hearing that his daughter was pregnant with Burn's illegitimate child promptly fainted. His WIFE had to go and get the cordial to revive him. I'm going to stop comparing men and women now, because I...
