...office in Eastern Washington. Each office runs differently. The company has a set of policies and procedures but each small office is allowed to interpret these rules as they see fit. The way this company is being ran is not working and things need to change before the company has more legal and financial issues. Recently, in our community, the main office relieved the manager of her duties and hired new management. The new management is working well together. They have put new ethical leadership and employee relations into effect and they are working on ways to “Reduce, Reuse & Recycle” ENVIROMENTAL CONSIDERATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS VSA does not have any policies that cover environmental issues at this time. The new management in the local office has recognized this as a problem and has made new policies for their individual office. Their supervisor from the main office is asking the new management to write all their ideas down and implement them. Once the main office has the new environmental policies for the local office they will be reviewing the policy and follow the progress. If they feel the local offices ideas are working and could benefit the company they will apply them company wide. Visitation Support Agency Because VSA is a service provider they do not have environmental issues that deal with a lot of...

...Of the 29 places to eat on Cornell’s campus, I chose to evaluate the food waste practices at the Risley Dining Hall on North Campus, for this case study. Risley is one of the program houses and focuses on art and theater and is located right next to one of the major bus stops on north, across the street from Balch Residence Hall (an all girls’ freshman dorm hall). They are open for lunch and dinner everyday. I eat lunch at Risley almost every week day with my friends. In comparison to my experiences at some of the other dining halls on campus, Risley seems to have a quieter setting. Risley has one serving line, a salad bar, and a fruit/sides bar. There are round tables set up to seat about 4 people. Studies show that when an individual eats with a larger group of people, they are more likely to consume greater amounts of food, especially at a buffet-style dining area (citation). I think the small, round tables at Risley promote smaller lunch gatherings and thus, help cut back on the amount of food wasted. Several people eat alone while doing homework on their laptops. I have noticed that these individuals appear to eat less than those eating with a more social group of friends. There are also often adults getting lunch at Risley, more so than I...

...20 things you do not know about Windows XP [pic] Now it's time to delve a bit deeper and uncover some of Windows XP's secrets. 1. It boasts how long it can stay up. Whereas previous versions of Windows were coy about how long they went between boots, XP is positively proud of its stamina. Go to the Command Prompt in the Accessories menu from the All Programs start button option, and then type 'systeminfo'. The computer will produce a lot of useful info, including the uptime. If you want to keep these, type 'systeminfo > info.txt'. This creates a file called info.txt you can look at later with Notepad. (Professional Edition only). 2. You can delete files immediately, without having them move to the Recycle Bin first. Go to the Start menu, select Run... and type ' gpedit.msc'; then select User Configuration, Administrative Templates, Windows Components, Windows Explorer and find the Do not move deleted files to the Recycle Bin setting. Set it. Poking around in gpedit will reveal a great many interface and system options, but take care -- some may stop your computer behaving as you wish. (Professional Edition only). 3. You can lock your XP workstation with two clicks of the mouse. Create a new shortcut on your desktop using a right mouse click, and enter 'rundll32.exe user32.dll,LockWorkStation' in the location field. Give the shortcut a name you like. That's it -- just double click on it and your computer will be locked. And if that's not easy enough, Windows key + L...

...department made sure of that. We also had to pay for the activities we wanted to be part of, turn in all of our books, I was excited about this because, carrying around all of those books in my book bag was like carrying around bricks. We cleaned out our lockers for the last time. Our locker location changed each year, depending if you were a senior, junior, sophomore, or freshman. For me, my senior locker was #1137, and was located on the first floor in the senior wing of school. And of course, we couldn’t forget, we had to turn in the last dreadful assignments. Since English 12 was a mandatory class, everyone had to take it in order to graduate. No one liked our English teacher, she almost failed the previous senior class. We all had to write an eight to ten page paper, choosing to talk about one of the characters from the novel Pygmalion. It was about a lady named Eliza whose speech was horrid, and sought out help from Professor Higgins, renowned man of phonetics to help her become a lady. We were all threatened by Mrs.Borton, the senior guidance consular, that if we did not do all of those things, we could not participate in senior week. This week was our week, to finally left go and be free from our high school problems. If we could not participate in this week, what would be the point of working so hard all year, all of our high school years? This was the only week of high school that was absolutely care free. Everything was done, I had nothing more to do but to enjoy this...

For instance, an attacker can begin a phishing scam with only a web server they control with very little programming experience and a way to send a lot of e-mail messages. (Jones 4) In order to combat the waves of cyber-attackers, we must utilize Open Source Community applications to combat the continual onslaught of infections, exploitations, and trickery employed everyday against our systems and networks. Today's attacker uses a variety of technologies to employ their methods and understanding those abilities is integral to preparing for an investigation. While dial up modems would seem pretty much a thing of the past, there are still a significant number of people accessing the Internet via these devices. Cable or DSL modems are now the in-vogue conduit to the Internet and offer the vulnerability of always being "on-line." Criminal activity comes in many different forms including, spam, phishing, viruses, and worms to name a...

...SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT FOR SMALL HOTELS JESSICA MOULD OKANAGAN COLLEGE Introduction Tourism is “one of the world’s fastest-growing industries”; as of 2012, “global tourism accounts for 1.2 trillion dollars (USD) in exports annually, 9% of worldwide GDP and is responsible for one out of every 12 jobs” [ (Canadian Tourism Commission, 2013) ]. Ninety percent of hotels worldwide are small hotels, e.g. hotels with less than 50 rooms (Radwan et al., 2010, p. 179). This essay addresses the problems associated with solid waste produced by the hotel industry including the difficulties faced by small hotels in managing their solid waste and ultimately describes benefits and solutions for sustainable waste management by small hotels. Waste minimizatioin is priority area 1 on Agenda 21 for the Travel and Tourism Industry [ (Stipanuk, 2006, p. 89) ]. The objective of priority area 1 is “to minimize resource inputs, maximize product quality, and minimize waste outputs” [ (Stipanuk, 2006, p. 89) ]. Waste is defined as “unused material produced as a result of inefficient production and/or consumption practices” that “puts economic and environmental costs on society through its collection, treatment and disposal” (Radwan et al., 2012, p. 535). “Waste can be regarded as a human concept as there appears to be no such thing as waste in nature” where “waste products created by a natural process or organism quickly become the raw products used by other processes and organisms”(Full Cycle...
