The report will discuss leader-member exchange theory, situational leadership model, path-goal theory and the action-observation-reflection model.

...TO: Management, Stakeholders & Employees of STARS Air Ambulance FROM: Sharaz Khan, CIO DATE: March 1, 2008 SUBJECT: Revamping Information Systems (IS) Unit Today’s challenging healthcare environment demands an experienced organization that can deliver innovative service solutions, while operating on budget. We at Shock Trauma Air Rescue Society or STARS Air Ambulance service have the experience and expertise to meet these needs, making us the preferred choice for trauma and emergency services nationwide. After my inception as the CIO, I requested our employees and executives to join in an internal dialogue about important issues facing our organization. I’ve been buoyed by the thought and discussion we’ve heard and read over the past few weeks. Even though we are performing well, there are few areas of concern which I think needs to be addressed in order for our organization to perform better. During my inquiry, I found that STARS needed to review its business and IS infrastructure. Information Systems (IS) never played a major role in any of STARS major operations and strategic planning, which has led to many organizational and operational issues. We need to understand that technology plays an important role in our day to day activities. We employ and leverage the use of information systems to communicate across the organization and also with our external partners. Although we are unable to make optimal use of the IS unit, we need to value the little innovation that...

...13.1 Introduction The memory location where data is stored is called address. Normally the data or variables are accessed through names that represent them. For example, marks, age etc. Similar to data, code is also stored in some memory location and the same can be accessed through names that represent them for example, getch(), clrscr() etc. C++ allows data and code to be accessed through its address, rather than official name. This is done using pointers. Pointers are special variables that are used to store the address of data or code. It is one of the most exciting features of C++ and also needs great care while using this feature. The concept is called pointers. 13.2 Pointer Pointer is a variable used to store the base address of another variable, reference or just a memory block without reference. Pointer is a derived data type. So the data type of a pointer can be any of the built in or user-defined data types. When we create a simple object or variable, memory block is allocated to it depending upon its data type. Just like any variable, pointer itself is also allocated memory. Memory allocated to pointer of all data types is same, i.e. it can be 2 bytes or 4 bytes depending upon the compiler and the operating system. 13.2.1 Advantages of pointers A data structure called linked list can only be created using a pointer. Pointers help to allocate memory at run time. Pointers help in reducing the size of data exchanges between functions. Function can return...

...The Art of Seeing Essay Nick Cave Soundsuit Mixed Media Page 184 Soundsuit, created by Nick Cave in 2009 resembles a cloud of ceramic birds that surrounds a body suit of crocheted yarn pieces. The structure that resides on the crocheted body suit resembles the flight pattern of the birds, some delicate lines with beads and others strong, steel like structure protruding upwards, almost looking like tree branches or roots of a tree if looked at upside down. The body suit has various colors although keeping a palate of reds, oranges, pinks, black and white. The patterns resemble flowers of various types and sizes breaking the monotony of matching patterns. The various materials used in Soundsuit work together to create an egg-shaped sphere around the crocheted body suit giving the viewer a feel of surrounding; noise of movement. The strong predominant vertical metal branches that hold the ceramic birds symbolize branches, especially since the artist selected ceramic birds that are perched. Not one bird is alike, some with extended wings and others seeming to take flight; the sound of flapping wings is almost audible. The crocheted body suit has a feeling of randomness, different flowers and symbols in different places in non-geometrical lines. The suite covers all body parts except the head and hands as if the suit would give a person a different identity. It almost feels as if this body suit is closely related to nature. Soundsuit is uniform in the sense that it contains...
