...Tired Of Battling Leaves In Your Gutters? Then It's Time To Install Gutter Guards If cleaning out your gutters is a task you dread every year, you may want to install gutter guards on your home. These come in a variety of styles, but the main goal is to keep big leaves out of your gutters while allowing rain to seep in. Here are a few things you should know about gutter guards. Types Of Guards Although there are different styles of gutter guards, there are two basic types. One is a screen and the other is a cover. The screens are made of metal, plastic, or foam mesh. They can fit inside your gutters or on the top. The ones that sit on top of your gutters work just like window screens. You can see inside them, and they allow wind and rain to pass through, but the screens keep out leaves and other debris. The holes in the screens are bigger than typical window screens though, so the screen won't shed water during a...

...the Samsung phones, but when I turned 12 I got my first phone and it was some kind of flip phone I can’t remember what kind. Between 15-19 years old I’ve always had a Samsung phone then the past 2 years I had a iPhone, and let me tell you that the iPhone is way nicer than the Samsung phones and more efficient , that’s my opinion. Screens: both the iPhone 6 and Samsung Galaxy S5 have excellent screens. However, they’re about as different as top-end smartphone screens get. The iPhone 6’s is more widescreen, letting the display expand without making the phone any wider than the iPhone 5S. Less concerned with keeping the phone palm-friendly, the 720p 4.8-inch monster screen of the Samsung Galaxy S5 does not compromise on size. Androids have bigger screens than IPhone. Like the Galaxy note which has 5.3” screen while IPhone only has 3.5" screen. But some android phones with big screen is kind of hard to use because of the big screen. It gives bulk, it can't easily be held in one hand, and it's kind of hard and a bit awkward when using it face to face. The screens are both touch that’s a similarity and also they have brightness adjustments to make your screen look nicer and if you want to save battery you just put the brightness all the way down. Apps: The Google Play store is rapidly catching up with the Apple App Store in terms of volume of apps and games. In late 2012, both stores revealed that the number of apps available had hit the 700,000 mark that’s insane! However, quality is...

...Violence in the Movies: Art Imitating Actuality Brenda McCain AIU Online Abstract This paper focuses on violence in the movies. It will address the psychological aspects of murders and domestic violence in the U.S. and the effects that are related to violent films. It will also concentrate on intimate partner violence on the silver screen. Violence in the Movies: Art Imitating Actuality This paper will provide an overview of violence in the movies. It will address the effects of the killings and its association with the violence in art. It will also focus on how intimate partner violence has been one of the most omnipresent factors globally affecting women in public health. This paper will dissect the psychology and effects of murder and domestic violence and its depiction in popular movies. It will also reveal the obsessive violent nature that our society has embodied in motion pictures. Dissecting Murder The first detection was the “crisis of violence,” in the psychology of murder. This is practiced and carried out so much on the silver screen that society has become desensitized by murder. Adams (1972), states, “That easy empathy with cinema slayings, together with a growing tolerance of real-life brutality suggests a dismaying conclusion: beneath the surface, Americans may be less alarmed by murder—and more attracted to it—than they care to admit” (p. 58, 4p). Though this has become reality as we know it, murder...

The details come from Japanese magazine Mac Fan, which were summarized on Tuesday by Macotakara. The report claims Apple's next-generation iPhone may sport a 1,920-by-1,080-pixel 5-inch display packing in 440 pixels per inch. It was claimed that Apple plans to make both sides of the screen as "thin as possible." That could allow the company to promote the "iPhone 6" as the first "phablet" able to be operated with one hand. The appeal of one-hand operation was already something Apple already focused on when it released the iPhone 5, sporting a larger 4-inch display, in 2012. That was an increase from the 3.5-inch display size found on all previous iPhone models. The magazine that serves as the source of the latest...

Information technology can also aid in decision making for a business. Decisions are made based on analysis provided by computer-based information systems.

Lastly information technology helps business gain a competitive advantage. A competitive advantage is gained through computer-based information systems by applying innovative application of information technologies (pg. 9).

...Assignment 3 Common Stock Screen Market Capitalization – Small ($300 million to $2 billion) Generally speaking, companies with smaller market caps are relatively new. This is a good thing, since they have a lot of room for expansion and growth. Although there is a risk that they will fail, if other fundamental factors are good, then there is a good chance the company will flourish. Companies with bigger market caps have already grown and will probably not have as much potential as smaller ones. Price – Under $20 There are two reasons I chose a low price as opposed to a high one. When investing a given amount of money, a lower price per stock will yield a greater percentage ownership in the corporation. On the other hand, you cannot afford as many stocks with a high price per stock. This is assuming the corporations have equal total shares. The second reason is that companies with a lower stock valuation have much more room to grow as ones with higher stock prices. Price to earnings ratio – Over 30 The P/E ratio is very important in determining whether a stock is worth investing in or not. A high P/E ratio means that investors and analysts expect the company to grow in the future. Future growth means more profits and more investors, which drives the stock price up. Most big companies have high P/E ratios, such as Google, which is priced much more than the value of its assets. Debt/Equity – low (<0.1) A high debt/equity ratio means that the company has been financing...
