In the school room, there are some items to be included. We’ll need to model a locker, desks, chairs, teacher desks, bulletin boards, decorations, maps, and a few computers. We’ll need to split the job to make things faster. The client requested that we model the art style to be photorealistic with a turntable animation.

Today we are going to talk about the music industry. Over the years, the music industry has changed drastically. Going from record and CD stores to everything being completely digital has opened up new doors to many different opportunities, but also shut doors for many companies. In the early 2000s, there were CD stores, record stores, and video stores littering every strip and plaza across the US. Slowly, those stores began to diminish due to digital stores and sites such as Limewire, iTunes, Pandora, Spotify, and now YouTube Music. To say that the digital age has had an effect on this would be an understatement. Children who were born in the late ‘90s and early 2000s spearheaded this digital advancement. Not only were music stores affected, but video stores were affected as well. How long has it been since we’ve even heard about Blockbuster? Netflix has also gone completely digital now. In the past, they used to send out DVDs monthly to their subscribers. This all has to do with ease of access. Not only as Americans, but as humans, we like to find an easy way out of situations and we love when things are available right then and there at our fingertips. It allows us to save our time and spend it on something more important. Being able to unlock your mobile device and/or sign onto your laptop and have the world literally at your fingertips allows for less time to be spent getting in your car and driving to the store to purchase what you were looking for. This, however, was very bad for physical stores. A huge financial decline ensued, as more and more people began to convert to the digital stores. Imagine this: You spend so much money on renting or leasing a business, then to acquire the product, and also to publicize your business for several years, just for some digital store to take all of your customers. Something that you’ve worked on for a very long time has been uprooted by a program that was just created in the span of a year. Financially, you’re struggling, so you have to eventually close down your shop and find something else to bring in the big bucks. Although there are still a few physical shops out there, they are mainly for older generations who still own the devices to play back the material. Most youth from this generation wouldn’t even know how a Walkman worked, even if the instructions were right next to them. At the rate that physical stores were going out of style, so were the playback devices. From Walkmans to CD players, MP3 players, and handheld radio devices, they are rarely seen today. You can now access the material you want to listen to or watch and the playback device within one console: a laptop, tablet, iPad, or other mobile device. This saves us, the consumers, money as well. Instead of having to spend money on the material and the device, we make a one-time payment on the device and several small payments on the material. Unfortunately, this has made us lazier. Movie nights, binge watching, and TV series have allowed for us to be more stagnant in the work that we do everyday if we let them. We have to motivate ourselves to get physical throughout the day when everything is, again, at our fingertips. Most physical store owners were not left behind. After realizing that those stores were no longer a necessity, they began investing in their own competition. This allowed them to reap the benefits of what the competitor is making and receiving.

These are just a few examples that I have thought of; there are many other things and trends to take note of, all of which are important in their own way and are to be acknowledged in that way. It is vital to the business to have this kind of work and business tactic so that they might succeed and progress to create new goals that they will in turn exceed.

There are various types of identity which show how a person fits into different situations. A personal identity is developed from our self-concept, how we perceive ourselves. This can be influenced by any number of things; however, it primarily consists of our current self and our idealised self. There is an observable self that is close to our true self, consisting of thoughts, feelings, and behaviours; however, the behaviours do not always align with thoughts and feelings. This is called cognitive dissonance, where our thoughts and actions aren’t in tune—our actions do not represent our feelings or vice versa. For us to change into our idealised selves, we must change either the actions or the feelings.

Number three, make sure someone close knows where you are. Give them the address and number of the photographer and/or studio in case anything is weird, so they have some details to help. If you’d prefer a chaperone to come with you, then explain to the photographer that you’d feel better with a chaperone (always be honest) and they should have no problems. If they kick up a fuss, then that speaks for itself!

English as a second language is more important now more than ever before, because we have outsourced so many jobs, and because there are so many jobs that we need people from other countries to do. As a teacher, you might not know it, but it is possible that you could be teaching someone English who could end up being a doctor an engineer, or someone who pioneers technology for the future.

Some say that this is because the films were not popular, but that can’t be right. Get Out sold huge numbers of tickets, especially for a horror film with a black protagonist. It was nominated for Best Picture. That’s a pretty big deal for a horror film. I don’t quite think it deserved that, but I’m happy for Jordan Peele. He’s a talented guy. He earned that best screenplay award.

Constantly highlighting a client’s tasks that need attention by a certain date, while making the impact of non-action clear, really helps keep the client focused on completing what they need to do in the short-term. At the same time, it helps you maintain a bigger picture view of the project.After all, clients inevitably have a business to run, so your job is to make things as simple as possible for them by managing them and their project as if they were a team member.

Next a default web application was created with NTLM authentication. This environment is not using Kerberos. They have an application to integrate later that requires NTLM windows authentication. After the web app was created, the site collections from the prior meeting were created for each department: Human Resources, Sales, Engineering, Account Executives, Architect Team, and Customer Service. I’ve assigned site collection administrators to each of those sites so they can provision any subsites end users may request later.

The use of swings in a NICU is incredibly beneficial, especially for the NAS population. We should be endeavoring to add these swings to each of the unit’s 203 rooms by the year 2024. The specific pros of the swing can span across all infant populations, but the NAS and feeder-grower populations benefit most greatly. Since this is the population we are seeing more frequently in our NICU, it is one we must endeavor to support more financially as we prepare developmentally friendly environments.

Unlike many other professions, counselling is largely based on the genuineness of the relationship that a counsellor decides to form with their client. In this sense, it is very crucial that as a counsellor I am aware of my own insecurities, my own anxieties, and my own fear and to continually work to ensure that these issues do not negatively impact my counselling process with my clients.

Each concept paper will be reviewed by three individuals. When you are finished with the concept papers, send your reviews to the merit review chairperson. These reviews do not necessitate a team review as a full application does, nor will they need a scoring meeting. The score for each concept paper will be given by simply averaging out the three scores. The scores will then be ranked, and the top applicants picked to receive encourage letters. The rest will receive discourage letters.

If we can’t find a good storefront for a decent price, maybe we could start onlineand just do the baking from home at first. But I think that would be a lot of work and neither of us has a very large kitchen. It’s a lot cheaper though, so I’m open to starting online and then expanding to a storefront once we have the capital. If we do start online, we’ll have to take delivery into account. It’s not going to be easy without some kind of delivery vehicle, but needing one will depend on the orders we’re filling. We could manage it in our cars as long as the orders are small, but that would cut out anything that needs to be refrigerated.

Lunches and breaks are one of the most common things that throw employers off, but they don’t have to be. I’ve found that through training and consistent refresher courses, managers and supervisors are your best line of defense when it comes to ensuring that everything runs smoothly. You need to start at the top and train the people who are responsible for scheduling and ensuring that everyone takes their breaks and lunches on time. Once you train your managers and supervisors, you can then hold them responsible for their actions, or lack of action, when it comes to ensuring that their employees are on time and receiving the breaks and lunches that they should. It will trickle down from there. Your managers and supervisors will hold their employees accountable for taking their breaks and lunches on time, and very soon you will see that everyone is accountable for making sure that we all follow the law.

The world of the Internet is very wide. In our era you will find a lot of interesting technology that would complete your day-to-day life. This new trend is leveraging the concept of the Internet of Things. These devices that were in the past not connected to the Internet are now available in all retailers. This becomes more and more popular and it all started with the fitness bands. These are bands that let you count all your steps and activity. At first these devices were not very smart or powerful but they were good at doing simple things. Pedometers are the ancestors of fitness bands. The development of these bands is quite impressive. They now have a lot of features and capabilities. People don’t use them to their full potential. The data that is provided by those type of bands can be analysed in such a way that would allow the user to deeply understand their habits. For example, if you see that the step count is very low, you can assume that someone is either sleeping or sedentary. The combination of those steps and other metrics would give you the answer but if we focus on the steps for the moment, you will realise that most of the time people have very similar habits. Their steps could be the same over and over. This is normal and quite expected. Based on that information a model can be created where we can predict what the user will do. For example if a person goes to work every morning at 8:00 a.m. for a long time, the day that the steps count doesn’t go up around that time will allow us to determine that a break in the habit occured. For more information, you can combine the steps with information like the heart rate. Nowadays the devices have those markers quite easily available. The heart rate is even more powerful that the steps. There are only a few moments that can be defined when the heart rate is changing. Either someone is awake and moving around (not exercising), going to the gym, doing exercises, or lying in bed. The last is quite easily identifiable. If you correlate the heart rate with the time of the day, you can assume that the person is sleeping with a good confidence score. The other opportunity that the measurement of the heart rate allows is to see if someone is under pressure or under stress. By combining the steps with the heart rate, you can have a model that is quite accurate for any sort of activity. For example, if the step count is very low and the heart rate is low, it’s quite obvious that the person is sleeping. If the heart rate is high but step count is low, it’s likely to be gym exercise or treadmill. I’ve never seen a low heart rate and high steps,but I would guess it’s probably an athlete going for a run that doesn’t impact his heart rate. The risk of having those devices collect more data is significant. The manufacturers haven’t used the full potential of the data that is available to them. Instead of analysing and reviewing deeply the information that they have they tend to rush into having more sensors. Those sensors are not always the answer. They can consume battery and therefore not be as good of an option as we think. Unfortunately, manufacturers have to innovate. To me the real innovation is having the ability to make the data talk and to be very good at using the existing technology that allows you to move forward. Being comfortable with the basic technologies is critical for today’s companies. The new and shiny gadgets are not a real demonstration of a company’s innovation. We have had flexible screens for many years but the utilisation as of today is still to be proven. The innovative department of Google called Google X has released nice gadgets from their work but they are not in any way, shape, or form usable by the end users. This is not the future that we should have, and our companies should be more focused on the end user instead of the image that they send. Those parts of the Internet of things are very useful to me. They simply need to be triaged. There are now toothbrushes, umbrellas, and other basic things that we use that are connected. I have difficulty understanding what the purpose of a connected umbrella is. The website advertises that if you forget your umbrella you get a notification. I’m not convinced at all. The same idea with the connected luggages. While it’s good when you lose your luggage to know where it is, I’m not sure how often you will be using that functionality. There is some big filtering to be done in this area and the users are starting to realise that not everything should be connected, as there is no point in doing so. The other trend that is associated with connected devices is the artificial intelligence and machine learning. This to me is the real innovation as long as simple rules are followed. The most important rule for an AI to revolutionize the life or work of someone is that the data it’s collecting is clean. There is an expression in the software industry that says “garbage in, garbage out.” The AI is not a magic tool that would change everything. It will help gradually to understand the amount of data that we have and to make it easily readable for humans. AI doesn’t work on its own. It relies on big data. AI has been around since the ‘50s. One of the first applications of AI was word processing following the scanning of a document. That was a great technology development but nowadays there isn’t a lot of documents that we scan and that we want to turn into text that can be processed. But that task has a specific purpose that the AI was able to tackle.

An example of this is as follows: Imagine a customer is on a two-part rate and used 1000 kWh on average during the time period, so that is their baseline. Prior to the time period, the customer receives notification that the marginal rate is $2/kWh because of a flood at the generation site. The standard rate is $0.15/kWh, so they will pay $0.15 * 1000, or $15 for the base rate. But then anything over that amount gets very expensive ($2/kWh), so they will not want any additional usage. (For example, if they added an assembly line, it could cost them thousands to run it.) But if they shut down totally and are in a two-part rate that provides rebates, they will then get a credit of almost $2000 for that period! This can really hurt the provider, as now they have overpriced the usage and have excess usage available that may go unpaid for.

This is the initial briefing from the client. It’s important to capture as much information as possible about the business, who their target audience is, and what products they sell (if any). The site might be used for lead generation, to sell products, or to offer information. Once the briefing has taken place, it’s time to think about the information which is going to be used on the site. This will create the information architecture.

I’ve had many teacher friends who have told me that they are frustrated in the classroom. They have all the curriculum, but much of it is old and not current. Common Core then was thrown into the mix, and created even more problems. Teachers who had the support of the parents with homework could no longer rely on them. Parents couldn’t understand the concepts, and the students were left with no help except during school.

Unlike STEM majors like nursing, which basically have a certain job entailed in the major’s description, English is one of the most flexible degrees one can possibly get. Some English majors do end up teaching English, either at a grade school, high school, or even at the university level. Yet many others find jobs in many different fields. English majors have become published authors, editors, librarians, and even CEOs of companies. The thing is, the English degree is not designed to land a student a specific job. A nursing degree prepares students to become nurses, but an English degree does not prepare students for becoming English teachers, or any other specific job. Rather, it focuses on honing skills in students that are transferable to many, many different arenas of life.

Radio commercials are much cheaper than television advertisements and can reach a lot of people too. The importance here is the same as with television though. You have to make sure you’re airing your commercial on the right station, and at the right time. If your most likely potential customer is going to be on his way to work in the morning, you don’t want to invest in a middle-of-the-night commercial, because it’s probably not going to pay off. You can also have the same advertisement on multiple stations, and that might work too.

One of the options is using JavaScript, a programming language that is one of the most important technologies of the World Wide Web, along with HTML and CSS. JavaScript is a good choice because the programming language can be effectively used to run C or C++ code once it has been properly compiled for the desired platform. This is because JavaScript has a very easy way of loading up and using the dynamic link library (DLL) files, which are generated by our code base. This is an extremely useful and efficient feature, as it really allows us to make use of all of our existing code, which is already written in C++, without converting it all into JavaScript and replicating the entire codebase.

As the situation was left untreated for longer periods of time, those residents who lived around the area would no longer feel safe walking outside their homes in the evening. Those with criminal backgrounds would make that area a criminal hotspot, which would invoke a police response. However, if the area was never restored to a pre-crime state, it would remain a hotspot.

The situation was left untreated for longer periods of time, to the point where the residents who lived around the area no longer felt safe walking around outside their homes in the evening. Similarly, those with criminal backgrounds felt more secure in turning the area into a hotspot for crime and other dangerous behaviors. That growth in crime and lawlessness in turn made the area’s residents feel even less safe outside their homes, leading to a cyclical pattern where each development built on itself. Eventually this increase in crime would lead to a response from police, which may or may not mitigate some of the effects of crime in the area, but could never completely address the original issues. In fact, even if the area was restored to a pre-crime state, it would still remain a hotspot for illicit activities for some time after, simply as a result of the reputation that had been established.

His breakfast consists of two to three bananas depending on how hungry he is, and a bottle of water to wash it down. Make sure he is set up on his couch in front of the TV with Disney Junior playing. The TV has to be on Disney Junior specifically and not a random kids' channel.
In addition to that, each banana should be cut into two sections, one at a time. Otherwise, he will get overwhelmed and likely not eat. After about an hour, if he is still hungry, you can offer him some more fruit or more sultanas. It is important that he always has water within reach. I would like him to be able to hydrate even when he is not eating, so throughout the day please continue to refill his bottle.

For example, the designer might want to lay out a desktop design that has text in three columns across the page. The designer will use Bootstrap classes to lay out the text in three page columns by making each text element the width of four grid columns. Those same three columns can then be condensed to two columns next to each other and one stacked below on a smaller-sized screen such as a tablet, also by using Bootstrap classes. To take it one step further, each of the three text elements can stretch across an entire screen, stacked in one long column, with more help from Bootstrap.
|
For example, it may be in the designer’s best interests to lay out a computer desktop design that consists of three individual columns lined up across the page. The designer could potentially utilize the Bootstrap classes to lay out the text in a three column format by limiting each text element to a width of four grid columns. Those same three columns can then be further condensed into a triangular formation consisting of two columns placed next to each other and atop the third, which is in turn placed alone on a smaller, tablet-sized screen beneath the other two. This set-up may sound complicated, but it can also easily be accomplished with the help of Bootstrap classes. This process can be taken a step even further by allowing each of the text elements to fill an entire screen by themselves, and placing each of these screens atop one another in a long column. This arrangement of screens may also sound daunting to construct at first, but this too can easily be accomplished with a little more help from Bootstrap. Bootstrap is the ideal tool to use for these and other web design purposes because it is a simple and effective way to edit CSS, HTML, and JavaScript files, but even more importantly, it is open source and completely free to use.

It can save us money in the long term if we can demonstrate the importance of reducing or eliminating litter all together. We would not longer have to send out crews to pick up the litter, and that money could be directed to other tasks. Regardless, it is clear how much damage litter does to our environment and thereby our community. This campaign is important for the protection of our future.

Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is a martial art/combat sport that is based on grappling and submissions (ground fighting). It is a mixture of Judo and Japanese Jiu Jitsu. The Gracie family, Helio Gracie in particular, popularised and created what is considered the massive powerhouse martial art in MMA (Mixed martial arts). It promotes the concept of smaller and weaker people being able to control and dominate a bigger and stronger opponent. Since Helio Gracie was a smaller man, his demonstrations and his sparringss conclusively proved that technique beats strength almost all the time. And ever since then, the sport of BJJ has evolved by the following generations. Competitions have popularised it even further than its originating country, Brazil, thus making it a global phenomenon. The Gracie family also had a hand in helping to create the rules for the UFC.

Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is a martial art and combat sport that is based on grappling and submissions, which pertain to fighting on the ground. Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is a mixture of Judo and Japanese Jiu Jitsu. Judo, which also originated in Japan, does not emphasized ground fighting, but instead focus on throwing techniques and quick movement to unbalance an opponent. On the other hand Jiu Jitsu employs holds, throws, and paralyzing blows to subdue an opponent. The Gracie family, Helio Gracie in particular, popularized and created the self defense system of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. It is also a combat sport that has become the main and essential style used in Mixed Marital Arts or MMA. It promotes the concept of a smaller and weaker person being able to control and dominate a bigger and stronger opponent. In order to demonstrate that this system could allow the smaller and weaker to win against a larger opponent, Helio Gracie, who was a smaller man himself, sparred against larger opponents. He proved that technique beats strength almost all the time. And ever sine them the sport of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu has evolved as the following generations practice this system. In addition, competitions have popularized it far beyond its originating country of Brazil. Thus, it become a global phenomenon. Since the Gracie family created one of the most important combat or self defense systems of all time, they become influential in the creation for the rule set of the UFC.

I will be discussing the proper way to make Starbucks beverages. Many of the drinks can be prepared very quickly by dispensing them from insulated containers, such as the coffee and hot water thermals, and the iced coffee and tea dispensers. For many Starbucks customers, their interest tends to venture into more difficult-to-craft drinks. In order to make a latte, you must first steam the milk. This is done by pouring the customer’s choice of milk into a silver, canister-like device, then inserting a heated rod that will blow steam into the milk. Be sure to insert only the tip at first, allowing it to heat only the surface, and then lift the rod out a moment before plunging it all the way in. This will prevent a, frankly, disturbing and loud noise that the machine will make if the rod is inserted directly into cold milk, so it is encouraged that we do it this way to prevent disturbing our customers and ourselves. The thing to do once the milk is settled in and steaming, is to put in the customer’s choice of syrup. A latte does not, by default, come with syrup, and syrup often costs extra, but many people still sweeten them. The correct, default amount of syrup for the sizes are as follows: two pumps in a tall, four pumps in a grande, and five pumps in a venti. If the venti is iced, an additional pump should be added for a total of six, as the iced venti cups are a little bit bigger than the hot cups. Then, it is time to draw the espresso shots from the espresso machine. This is done simply with the click of a button. Talls get one shot. Grandes and ventis get two shots, and iced ventis get three. It is crucial not to let the espresso sit without introducing the milk for any more than ten seconds, as prolonged exposure to the air will sour it and give it a distinctly unpleasant taste. Pour the steamed milk into it slowly, encouraging the non-foamy milk to enter it first, and the foam to rest on top. Some people encourage less-practiced employees to use a spoon in order to hold back the foam initially, then release it at the end. If you steam the milk just right, you will be able to make latte art in it by pouring it in a distinct way. That is how to make a latte. A macchiato is prepared by pouring the shots on top at the end, after the milk and syrup are in the cup. A cappuccino is made by making the milk more steamy by keeping the rod near the top for longer. It contains more foam.

Today, I will be discussing the proper way to make Starbucks beverages. It is important to note that many of the drinks can be prepared very quickly by dispensing them from insulated containers, such as the coffee and hot water thermals, and the iced coffee and tea dispensers. For many Starbucks customers, their interest tends to venture into more difficult-to-craft drinks. These difficult-to-craft drinks are like lattes. Lattes are important part of the Starbucks menu so it is pretty important to understand how they are made. In order to make a latte, you must first steam the milk. This is done by pouring the customer’s choice of milk into a silver, canister-like device, then inserting a heated rod that will blow steam into the milk. Be sure to insert only the tip at first, allowing it to heat only the surface, because you do not want to curdle the milk, and then lift the rod out a moment before plunging it all the way in. Doing this will prevent a, frankly, disturbing and loud noise that the machine will make if the rod is inserted directly into cold milk, so it is encouraged that we do it this way to prevent disturbing our customers and ourselves. And believe me, you do not want to hear that sound 100 times a day as you make lattes for customers, either. So, it is important to practice this technique and avoid that terrible noise.
Next, the thing to do once the milk is settled in and steaming, is to put in the customer’s choice of syrup. Although a latte does not, by default, come with syrup, and syrup often costs extra, you will find that many people still sweeten them. The correct or default amount of syrup for the sizes are as follows: two pumps in a tall, four pumps in a grande, and five pumps in a venti. If the venti is iced, an additional pump should be added for a total of six, as the iced venti cups are a little bit bigger than the hot cups.
Then, it is time to draw the espresso shots from the espresso machine. Thankfully this is a simple task. Drawing the espresso out of the machine is done simply with the click of a button. Now, Talls get one shot, while grandes and ventis get two shots. Lastly, iced ventis, similar to when they get syrup, get an extra shot of espresso, which means you put three shots into them. It is crucial not to let the espresso sit without introducing the milk for any more than ten seconds, as prolonged exposure to the air will sour it and give it a distinctly unpleasant taste. If you do let this happen, do not be surprised if you have to remake this drink for the costumer. Pour the steamed milk into it slowly, encouraging the non-foamy milk to enter it first, so that the foam can come and rest on top. Some people encourage less-practiced employees to use a spoon in order to hold back the foam initially, then release it at the end. You can utilize this method until you are comfortable enough to attempt it without the spoon. If you steam the milk just right, you will be able to make latte art in it by pouring it in a distinct way. Of course, this particular part is more of a fun fact and not required for you to do. That is how to make a latte.
Now there are two other drinks made at Starbucks as well, which a macchiato and a cappuccino. These are kind of alterations of the latte. For example, a macchiato is prepared by pouring the shots on top at the end, after the milk and syrup are in the cup. Whereas, A cappuccino is made by making the milk more steamy by keeping the rod near the top for longer, which means it will contain more foam. Although the each contains similar ingredients, how those ingredients are inserted into the drink will determine what you are making. Remember not confuse any of the drinks and do not fully insert the rod into cold and all of you should do well at Starbucks.

Touching more on the subject of lighting, try to use the same color light. Lights are rated in color from warm to cool. Warm lights are yellowish red in tint, and cool lights are white or blue colors. They are rated in degrees Kelvin. The lower the degree K the warmer the light. Mixing cool and warm lights might provide some cinematic flavor to a shot or scene, but it should be avoided in an educational setting, as it will provide a distraction to students. As for fluorescent lights, make sure your camera settings do not produce “flicker” when filming them. If this occurs, try adjusting the FPS and the exposure settings. Make sure you test these settings before you go live! Another thing to watch out for is lines moving down the screen, this is caused by lights putting out light in a frequency that conflicts with the camera settings. Some modern cameras have settings to compensate for this.

Regarding the subject of lighting, attempt to use the same color light. Lights are rated in color on a scale from warm to cool. On a color scale, warm lights are yellowish-red in tint, whereas cool lights are white or blue colors. Lights are rated in degrees Kelvin, which is the unit of measurement in thermodynamic temperature. Thermodynamic temperature gauges the amount of total energy stored in an object.
The lower the light rates in Kelvin, the warmer the light. Warm light is defined as a color temperature below 3300 degrees Kelvin. Cool light is often measured to be 4000 degrees Kelvin and higher. Mixing cool and warm lights has benefits, such as providing cinematic flair to a shot or scene. Furthermore, mixing color temperatures can produce a desired mood in a living room or set an atmospheric tone when listening to music. Unfortunately, mixing light temperatures can have its limitations. When misused, such as in an educational setting, it will distract students. Using light temperatures in this manner can also have an adverse effect when attempting to watch a movie or television. Rather than supply a complimentary mood, it takes away from the desired subject.
Avoiding a "flicker" effect when recording video under fluorescent lighting is essential. Flicker occurs when the light hitting the camera sensor undergoes temporal light modulation. Because the camera sensor samples light intensity discretely (according to the exposure time), rapid fluctuations in light combined with the recording process can create unwanted artifacts. To prevent this, try adjusting the frame rate (fps) and exposure settings, and test these adjustments before filming. Frame rate refers to the number of video frames captured per second, expressed in frames per second. Also, be aware of lines moving from top to bottom on the camera screen, which can be caused by specific light frequencies that conflict with the camera's settings. Luckily, some modern cameras have features to compensate for this, such as manual mode or bulb mode, shutter speed, aperture or F-stop, and ISO.

Lunches and breaks are one of the most common things that throw employers off, but they don’t have to be. I’ve found that through training and consistent refresher courses, managers and supervisors are your best line of defense when it comes to ensuring that everything runs smoothly. You need to start at the top and train the people who are responsible for scheduling and ensuring that everyone takes their breaks and lunches on time. Once you train your managers and supervisors, you can then hold them responsible for their actions, or lack of action, when it comes to ensuring that their employees are on time and receiving the breaks and lunches that they should. It will trickle down from there. Your managers and supervisors will hold their employees accountable for taking their breaks and lunches on time, and very soon you will see that everyone is accountable for making sure that we all follow the law.
|
Mid day meals, as well as scheduled pauses from work are examples of the most common subjects that are able to disrupt the employer's state of mind, but that does not have to be an inevitability. I have discovered that with the right amount of certified training as well as regularly scheduled courses for the sake of review, managers as well as supervisors are the most ideal individuals to have on your side when it comes to making certain that the work day is running as smoothly as possible. It is extremely suggested for you to begin at the very top of the ladder and train the individuals whose responsibility it is to schedule and make certain that every individual takes their breaks and lunches at the correctly allotted frame of time. When you are able to find the right time to train your managers as well as supervisors, you are then able to hold them responsible for the actions and decisions, or lack of actions and decisions, that they choose to or not to act upon. When it comes to the conflict of making certain that the ones they are supervising are showing up during their scheduled hours, and being given the breaks and lunches that they are legally required to give, it will from there be able to trickle down from that point on. The managers and supervisors you hired will then take it upon themselves to make sure their employees are held accountable for taking their breaks and lunches at their allotted time, and in a short amount of time you will eventually notice that every individual is taking account and making sure that everyone involved in the workplace follows their legal guidelines.

The first thing is customer service. You have to be all for the customer. Once you are willing to give up your first born child (figuratively) for this customer, you are on the right track. Nothing should ever be too much of a hassle, and it is important to show this on your face. Customers pick up on non-verbal communication in addition to what is coming out of your mouth. Their requests may be pretty bloody silly, such as “can I have a pie, but can you remove all the pastry from it?” or “I know I’ve come to a Singaporean restaurant, but do you have anything else not Singaporean, as I don’t really like that type of food?”. If I had a dollar for the amount of stupid requests I have heard, I would be an incredibly rich gal. You have to pretend it’s not silly, and that it’s actually reasonable. If you can’t do what they’re asking, offer them something else to make it seem like you haven’t just completed denied them outright. With fine dining restaurants, customers expect a lot more compared to a bakery. They want to be greeted at the door. They want to be taken to their table straight away. For Heaven’s sake do not make them wait. That first introduction is crucial.
|
The absolute first thing that needs to be kept in mind is customer service. Everything must revolve around the whims of the customer. Only once you are willing to sacrifice your firstborn child for the good of the customer (figuratively speaking) have you begun to understand the mindset you will need to radiate. Nothing should ever be too much of a hassle for you, no task too small nor request too absurd. Furthermore you must wear this philosophy on your sleeve at all times, proclaiming to the world with your eyes and with your expressions that you do not mind performing these petty services in the slightest. On the contrary, in fact, you must love to serve the customer, you must express nothing but pure delight in every chance you get to help them attain their desires, again no matter how ridiculous or degrading the request.
This is because they can tell. The customers know when you let the mask slip. They are capable of using their adept senses of non-verbal communication to read your true thoughts even as you deliver your well-practiced but ultimately fruitless customer service spiel. Remember, customers delight in making the most absurd of requests and will often poke at the edges of your carefully prepared mental defenses with questions such as, “can I have a pie, but can you remove all the pastry from it?” or “I know I’ve come to a Singaporean restaurant, but do you have anything else not Singaporean, as I don’t really like that type of food?”.
If I had been given a dollar for every odd, ridiculous , or downright preposterous customer request I’d fielded in my time, I would be a very rich woman today. But no matter what, no matter how ridiculous the request, it is paramount that you appear to carefully consider it, and pretend that it is not the most galling nonsense you’d heard since the last customer request. Furthermore, it is important that you offer them an alternative to their utterly impossible requests if they turn out to be impossible. This is because a customer can never be denied, only gently redirected towards less destructive options.
These rules apply all the more so in a fine dining setting, since the customers there are expecting a level of service and deference to match the exorbitant fees they are likely paying to dine in such an establishment. These patrons are expecting a level of service that goes above and beyond even the near reverence expected in typical customer service settings. Under no circumstances should you make such patrons wait for service, the first impression is the most important after all.

You will also want to get all your legal documents in order. This can range from health and safety certificates to contracts from all employees to contractor’s insurance. For a restaurant, you will likely need a large insurance coverage to allow for any claims that could arise from either staff or customers.
|
It is in your best interest to systematize your legal documents. Suitable practices include separating by document type, using chronological or alphabetical order, and color-coding your filing system. Once you have identified your preferred filing method, it is necessary for you to commit your process to memory or take the additional step to create a key detailing how you separated your documents.
The definition of legal documents can span from health and safety certificates to contracts from the total number of staff to contractor's insurance. Regarding restaurants, you will probably require expansive insurance coverage to acknowledge any claim that may come to light from either staff or customers. Possible claims include fire, personal injury, food poisoning, etc.

The first thing you can do to ensure that your site ranks highly is to include keywords that users would typically use when searching for your site. Use these keywords as high up on the page as possible, such as in titles, subtitles, and in the first paragraph or two. This will ensure that search engines such as Google or Yahoo can easily find the keywords straightaway, and know that your page is about that topic.
|
The first step which can be undertaken to ensure that your site ranks highly in online search results is to include keywords that users would typically use when searching for a site. These keywords should be placed in the more immediately visible portions of your webpage, in places like titles, subtitles, or lines taken from the first paragraph or two. This helps search engines like Google, Yahoo, or Bing find the keywords quickly and efficiently, making it easier for them to determine what the topic of your webpage is and therefore how relevant it is to the search at hand. Another method of improving your webpages search engine optimization is by ensuring that the page remains active with fresh content appearing regularly. This can be accomplished by including a blog page, or encouraging visitors to interact with part of the page, such as through a moderated comment section, or review board.

It is important to choose an appropriate lab for the occasion when setting out to design an inquiry-based unit. Some labs that require specialized equipment that needs detailed instructions in order to understand how it is operated may not be a good choice for this type of activity. An inquiry-based lab is better suited as an exploratory introduction to a chapter, instead of a detailed rigorous data collection study. Inquiry-based labs can be integrated into almost all physics units, even those that intuitively do not make sense at first. For example, when beginning to teach a unit on Newton’s law of universal gravitation, it is difficult to get students to understand a concept that they cannot see. The laws of gravity that hold the universe together are invisible to students, and they cannot begin to comprehend a force of gravity different than that experienced between themselves and their own planet. Trying to go over advanced calculations for other planets can be a boring and unrewarding task for them. However, giving each lab group an open-ended question in the guided-inquiry format can be a very effective means of opening up their minds to this new chapter. NASA and other educational non-profits have online tools that students can explore to simulate gravity on other planets. With a lab notebook in hand, students should be given some online resources and a general question, such as “What color would the sky be on Mars?” or “How would it feel to run and jump on the surfaces of other planets?” Using online computer simulations is an extremely effective way of engaging students in following their own lines of inquiry in a focused way that is also exposing them to the content. Computer-based learning also has the distinct advantage of allowing different groups of learners to discover and learn at various places.

It is essential to choose a proper lab for the occasion when setting out to design an inquiry-based unit. While selecting such a lab, it is important to keep in mind that it must enable students to understand concepts and encourage them to explore the topic further. There may be many labs that have specialized equipment that needs detailed instructions in order to understand how it is operated, and these may not be a good choice for this type of activity because it will overcomplicate the process and confuse the students. While these labs may be fascinating, they may not be suitable for inquiry-based learning. Students may spend more time trying to understand how to use the equipment instead of exploring the topic at hand. It will divert them from the process of learning. However, an inquiry-based lab is better suited overall as an exploratory introduction to a chapter than a detailed, rigorous data collection study. There are many advantages to inquiry-based labs due to their flexibility and adaptability, as they can be integrated into almost all physics units, even those that intuitively makes no sense at all in the beginning and are very difficult to understand at first. It can help students visualize the concept and make it more tangible by using models, demonstrations, and hands-on activities. For example, when a teacher starts to introduce a unit on Newton’s law of universal gravitation, it is difficult to get students to understand and analyze a concept that they cannot see. They may struggle to follow the concepts. The laws of gravity that hold the universe together are not visible to students, and they cannot begin to understand the force of gravity. They would not understand what connects them to their own planet or the important role that gravity plays in the universe. If they are asked to do advanced calculations for other planets, it can be a dull, monotonous, and unrewarding task for the students. They might not work diligently for it. But if students are taught in a creative way that breaks the monotony and makes them curious and open, they can effectively learn the concepts promptly. If each lab group is provided with an open-ended question in the guided-inquiry format, it can be an amazing way to open up their minds and visualize basic concepts and any new chapter. NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) and other educational non-profits have various tools available online that can help students explore and simulate gravity on other planets. These are amazing resources to get in-depth knowledge about STEM topics. Students can explore varied information on the subject by going through the websites. So, students must be provided with a lab notebook in hand and should be given some online resources and a general question, such as "What color would the sky be on Mars?" or "How would it feel to run and jump on the surfaces of other planets?" This could be very effective in making them aware of these subjects. Using online computer simulations is believed to be an extremely practical way of engaging students to follow their own lines of inquiry in a focused way. This way, they are also exposed to some great online content and are getting first-hand information on complex topics. Computer-based or virtual learning also has the special advantage of allowing different groups of learners to discover and learn at various places. Students from across the world can access vital information that can greatly contribute to their knowledge and learning. It is evident that by carefully selecting the right lab, students can develop a deeper understanding of the topic and cultivate their curiosity and interest in science.

The program has a long history of providing a unique and enriching experience to youth and adults, and for many people, it is something they remember for the rest of their lives. Sailing a square rigger vessel is unlike anything most people have ever done, and is an excellent way to immerse people in a completely new environment. The challenges and excitement bring out the best in people, and it brings people into much closer contact with elements than most people now ever experience. Letting the wind and waves dictate your movements and spending most of the day outside on the water lets you see things you would not see any other way. Even on a short sail near the GTA, it can be incredible how separate you feel out on the lake, even while the CN tower is still visible in the distance.

Greetings! Welcome to the leadership team. We are glad to have you come on board, and want to do everything we can to make your transition as easy as possible. We know that moms are busy people, so we will try not to take up too much of your time with unnecessary details. However, there are a number of things we feel you need to know to go forward successfully as a leader in the moms' group.

Salutations and good tidings! We are very pleased to be able to welcome you to our leadership team. We are overjoyed to have you joining our ranks, and sincerely hope to make your transition as smooth and hassle free as possible. We are well aware of all the things moms have on their plates, so we will attempt to preserve your time by keeping this briefing as concise as possible. That being said, there are many factors that we feel it is important for you to be aware of as you prepare to successfully don the mantle of leadership in the moms’ group. Fortunately, the skills we will need you to perfect are all ones that motherhood has already been training you for. The first necessary skill we wish to highlight for you to practice is effective time management, this is because you will be expected to take on several more responsibilities in addition to all of the mom related work you already have on your schedule. The second skill that you will need to become comfortable with in this role is active listening and empathizing. This is because as a leader in the group, other moms will often turn to you for guidance and assistance with issues in their lives.

The issue we need to be aware of is that we can get frustrated trying to find that passion. Though they may work in areas that seem to fit their desires, some think they should wait for the perfect spot before they engage. The idea of “doing something you don’t completely love” is repulsive and a waste of time.
|
The problematic possibility we are required to be consciously observant of is the fact that we have the capability to get frustrated in our attempts in looking for that passion. But as it turns out, they have a chance of working in areas that one could easily assume would fit what they may want. A number of people are of the mind that they are obliged to be patient, and wait for the exact right spot before they decide to pursue. The idea of “acting on a thing you do not one hundred percent love” is not attractive at all and not a good use of time.

It’s perfectly acceptable to give someone a general idea of what the interview will be about, but do not give them your list of questions. If you do, they will try to memorize their answers in advance you will lose spontaneity and freshness. Your interview will end up feeling stale, inauthentic, and rehearsed. Another great tip if you get nervous is to have them repeat your question. This is a great idea, especially because we feature guest voices so much. Make the guest repeat back your question in their answer. It helps our editors. One final tip is to keep your mouth shut and stay completely silent while the other person is talking.

One thing guests might ask you is if they can see the questions in advance and the answer is no. And this is not because of a silly rule or simply because these questions are so original they must be safeguarded. We want guests to genuinely answer from the top of their heads, and not to use pre-scripted answers about their opinions. How many times have you watched an interview or a Q&A and did not find it that compelling? It is most likely because the questions were provided before hand, so all of the answers were simply prepared. There was nothing real to it. And I cannot stress this point enough.
Now it’s perfectly acceptable to give someone a general idea of what the interview will be about, but do not give them your list of questions. You can say that will be about this particular point in their life such as their childhood or perhaps at a pivotal moment in their career. But never the list. If you do, they will try to memorize their answers in advance you will lose spontaneity and freshness. Your interview will end up feeling stale, inauthentic, and rehearsed. And, of course, that is something we are trying to avoid happening

Anything we can do to help make the interview better and streamline the process of editing is really helpful. One final tip is to keep your mouth shut and stay completely silent while the other person is talking. Refrain as much as possible from saying verbal clutter such as “okay” or “oh, interesting.” You don’t want to hear yourself in the background! Just ask the question and keep quiet.

Radio commercials are much cheaper than television advertisements and can reach a lot of people too. The importance here is the same as with television though. You have to make sure you’re airing your commercial on the right station, and at the right time. If your most likely potential customer is going to be on his way to work in the morning, you don’t want to invest in a middle-of-the-night commercial, because it’s probably not going to pay off. You can also have the same advertisement on multiple stations, and that might work too.
|
Radio advertisements are significantly less expensive than their television commercial counterparts, yet retain the ability to reach a wide audience. The important underlying factors remain the same between these two varieties of advertising, however. Namely, that it is vital for you to be certain that your commercial is airing on the correct station at the most ideal time. For instance, if the most likely potential consumers of your product are likely driving to work in the mornings, then it would be foolish to invest your time and resources into a middle-of-the-night commercial. It is fairly safe to assume that such an investment would not pay off in an ideal manner. Another viable option is to run the same advertisement across multiple stations, increasing your chances of reaching your target audience significantly with each additional station. This strategy is not without its drawbacks however, since each additional station will also increase your total advertising costs significantly. Just as it is important to select the most appropriate time-slot for your advertisement to reach its target audience then, it is equally important to select the most appropriate station to reach your target audience. For instance, suppose that you are offering a service teaching English as a second language. In that case it would be a far better idea to place your advertisements on a predominantly Spanish speaking station’s network than with an English speaking network that your target audience probably isn’t listening to.

The funding received amounts to more than $550,000 over a three-year period and will provide support to a Sustainable Livelihood Program. The primary function of an SLP (Sustainable Livelihood Program) is to fight poverty by stimulating employment among poor households and ultimately promoting economic stability to those who need it. Emergency food on its own is insufficient to combat the root causes of poverty. Simply trying to counteract inadequate job growth, poor education, polluted water, and overpopulation with spare food is an unwinnable situation.
These are just a few of the major plights that are affecting our most in-need communities. It is our desire to use our community food spaces to connect individuals to services that acknowledge their complete needs. Specifically, these services should be equipped to consider the impoverished's health and sense of self. We can gain a greater understanding of those we are providing service to by building up a case system. A case system will acquire better insight into people's challenges and strengths, conclusively empower them, and support improvement in their lives.

I would now like to outline the value of our service. Our company is able to provide high quality translations with which other companies cannot compete. The use of human translators as opposed to computerised translators is essential to the success of our translation work. Translators are suited to the required brief with fluency in the languages they are required to utilise. The quality of our work is paramount, with our translators taking into account the nuances and complexities associated with their specific languages. This service cannot be replaced with automated programmes such as Google Translate, as the translations resulting from their automated services are riddled with errors grammatically and in terms of overall meaning. These errors simply do not arise amongst trained professional translators.
|
I would now like to enumerate the many benefits of utilizing our company’s services. Our company is in a position to provide translation services of the highest quality. Other companies are simply unable to compete with the exceptional services we offer. The first key difference between our services and those of our competitors is that we rely exclusively on human translators, never stooping to the use of computerized knock-offs. Each of our translators are required to demonstrate complete fluency in the languages they are assigned to assist with. Beyond that, they are also required to demonstrate deep understandings of the complexities and cultural nuances associated with each language. The quality of our translations is by far the most important factor in our business model, and such devotion to excellence simply cannot be replicated with automated programs such as Google Translate. The translations conducted by such software are ill-equipped to handle the sort of cultural nuance that our translators specialize in, and so the work of these programs often ends up containing significant grammatical errors and deviations in meaning from the original text. Blatant errors such as that simply do not appear in the work of our professionally trained translators. When communicating is the goal, nuance is everything, and at the end of the day, utilizing the translation services of a professional, results and detail focused translation services such as those offered by our company, is the only way to guarantee that a message gets delivered as intended across complex cultural and linguistic lines.

Once you have your lights patch, it’s on to creating a lighting show. A show is made up of scenes and patterns. Think of a scene as a simple static stage lighting, which might include a group of lights set to a fixed point, all in red. Your next scene may be the same group of lights fixed on a different point in green, then another scene fixed on another point, all in blue. If you were to run through all of these scenes over and over, you would have a pattern. A show is simple a collection of patterns and scenes.

After creating your lighting patch, the next step is using it to create a lighting show. A lighting show is just made up of different scenes and varied patterns that come together to create an engaging and immersive experience for the audience. Think of a scene essentially as very simple static stage lighting, which might include a group of lights set to a fixed point, all in red. Now, in the case of your next scene, it may be the same group of lights fixed on a different point in green, then another scene fixed on another point, all in blue. You may do it in any other color. If you were to run through all of these scenes over and over again, you would have a pattern, a movement that will create a visually stunning effect. You must understand that a show is simply a collection or sequence of patterns and scenes, arranged in a logical order. Patterns can range from simple color variations to complex movements and visual effects, all designed to enhance the overall experience of the show. All of this requires a proper understanding of the music or event you are lighting up, as well as studying your audience's expectations and preferences.

Security will make sure the site is safe as well as the head counts. The police can require an information about number of spectators on site at any given time, so it is very important we have an idea how many people is currently on event site. This will mean we will need a fence around the green with designated entrance and exit to make the count possible. This will add to the costs listed above. We are currently in process of getting quotes for the herras fencing hire as well as actively looking for a sponsor that would donate the herras fencing and workers for that day. If we can find a local building company to sponsor this, it will help very greatly with lowering the costs.
|
Security will be responsible for ensuring that the site is completely safe in addition to maintaining an accurate head count at all times. The police have the ability to request information about the number of spectators on site at any given time, so it is utterly crucial that we always have an accurate estimate of the number of people currently on site. This necessitates the construction of a fence around the green with foot traffic limited to passing through designated entrances and exits only. Limiting the free movement of people in this way is an essential step that needs to be taken in order for security to stand any chance of maintaining an accurate headcount throughout the event. The costs of renting, constructing, maintaining, and eventually deconstructing this fence will obviously raise the overall costs of running this event, but that is unavoidable. We are currently undergoing quote negotiations with Herras fencing for these purposes, as well as actively searching for a sponsor who might help us mitigate these increased costs with a donation covering the price of the fence rental, or its setup and takedown, or ideally, both. We believe that a local building company may be willing to support our efforts in such a manner, perhaps in exchange for the right to advertise at the event. These advertisements could potentially be placed on the very fence they agree to donate for us. It practically goes without saying that securing the aid of a local business on this matter would go a long way towards lowering the overall costs of running this event.

Active learning is an important pedagogical tool used in higher education today. It is based on the scientific method. It is an approach to instruction that involves actively engaging students with the course material through discussion, problem solving, case studies, role plays, and other methods. This can be as simple as pausing mid lecture to ask students questions or can be as complex as group projects. This approach moves away from simply the transference of information and encourages the student to engage with the subject matter with a higher order of thinking. In addition, students are also allowed to explore their own attitudes and values. Students in an active learning classroom learn more than students in the traditional classroom. In the more traditional classroom setting, a teacher would give a lecture that solely transferred information and would not allow the student to engage with the subject matter. Depending on the course, it varies on which method works the most effectively. However, the use of groups for project learning throughout the semester is a particularly effective element of active learning.

This is a document relating to the current Internet of things market that is expanding beyond our expectations. For the market to expand, the current participants are collaborating using OEM enablers. OEM enablers are people who will enable a device, such as your average boiler or light in the house, to be integrated into a system that can be controlled from one single point. For example, you can have one simple application on your smartphone that will help you control your boiler temperature and your corridor lights, and both these devices will normally talk to what we call a hub, which will then talk to a bridge that talks to the internet.

This is a piece of text having to do with the current market of Internet of things that is expanding well past what he had initially expected. In order for the market to continue to expand, the current participants are collaborating together utilizing what’s called OEM enablers. OEM enablers are individuals who are meant to turn on a certain device, such as your average water boiler or light in any home, or your garage door, or many other devices to be integrated into a specific system that has the ability to be controlled from one single point. For example, you are able to have one simple application installed onto your mobile device that will give you the ability to assist in you controlling your boiler’s temperature the lights in your corridor, and your garage door, and all of these devices will be able to communicate with what we have formally named a hub, which will from there communicate with what we call bridge, that communicates with the world wide web. It is especially convenient for being out of the house. Say, for example, you accidentally left a light turned on. With this application, you would be able to turn them off from outside of the home, and not have to worry about your electric bill piling up because of it.

The control of fire was the first great discovery of humankind, because it changed all of their lives.To the early man, fire was a divine gift randomly delivered in the form of lighting forest fire, or burning lava. Unable to make flames for themselves, the earliest peoples probably stored fire by keeping slow burning logs alight or by carrying charcoal in pots. How man learnt how to produce flame at will is unknown. It was probably a secondary invention. European peasants would insert a wooden drill in a round hole and rotate it briskly between their palms. This process could be sped up by wrapping a cord around the drill and pulling on each end. The Ancient Greeks used lenses or concave mirrors to concentrate the sun’s rays, and burning glasses were also used by Mexican Aztecs and the Chinese. These methods of fire-lighting date back to Paleolithic times, when some Stone Age tool-makers discovered that chipping flints produced sparkes. The technique became more efficient after the discovery of iron, about five thousand years ago. In North America, the Eskimos produced a slow-burning spark by striking quartz against iron pyrites, a compound that contains sulphur. The Chinese lit their fires by striking porcelain with bamboo. Tinder remained the main method of fire-lighting until the middle of the 19th century. Fire lighting was revolutionised by the discovery of phosphorus, isolated in 1669 by a German alchemist trying to transmute silver into gold. Impressed by the element’s combustibility, several 17th century chemists used it to manufacture fire-lighting devices, but the results were dangerously inflammable. With phosphorus costing the equivalent of several The quest for a practical match really began after 1781 ( I am not sure), when a group of French chemists came up with the Phosphoric Candle or Ethereal Match, a sealed glass tube containing a twist of paper tipped with phosphorus. When the tube was broken, air rushed in, causing the phosphorus to combust. Another device popular in the US was the Instantaneous Light Box — a bottle filled with the sulphuric acid, into which splints treated with chemicals were dipped.The first matches resembling those used today were made in 1827 by Walker.Walker was an English pharmacist who borrowed the formula from a military rocket-maker. Walker never patented his invention, and three years later, it was copied by Samuel Jones, who marketed his product as Lucifers. About the same time, a French chemistry student named Charles Sauria produced the first strike-anywhere match by substituting white phosphorus for the potassium chlorate in the Walker formula. However, since white phosphorus is a deadly poison, from 1845 match-makers exposed to its fumes succumbed to necrosis, a disease that eats away jaw bones. It was not until 1906 that the substance was eventually banned. That was about sixty-two years after a Swedish chemist called Pasch had discovered non-toxic red, or amorphous, phosphorus, a development exploited commercially by Pasch’s compatriot in 1885. This contained potassium chlorate, which has a combustion temperature of 182 degrees centigrade. America lagged behind Europe in match technology and safety standards. It was not until 1900 that the Diamond Match Company bought a fresh patent for safety — but it didn’t work in the different climatic conditions prevailing in the US, and it was another eleven years before scientists finally adapted the French patent for the US. The Americans can claim several firsts in match technology and marketing. In 1892, the Diamond Match Company pioneered book matches. The innovation did not catch on until after 1896, when a brewery had the novel idea of advertising its product in matchbooks.Today, book matches are the most widely used type of match in the US, with ninety percent handed out free by hotels, restaurants, and others.

When humans were able to find a way to control fire, what became was an initializing, amazing discovery of our kind, due to the fact that it altered every single one of their, and in turn our lives as well. According to the individuals that were taking part of the early stages of our species, fire became a gift from the heavens that was randomly sent to them in the form of lighting, forest fire, or burning lava. Early humans were not able figure out how to burn wood or leaves to make and control flames for themselves, the earliest human beings most likely stored a low fire by keeping logs that were burning very slowly alight or by hauling charcoal within portable pots. How many people or civilizations were able to learn how to produce and control flame at will is not known at this time. It was most likely an invention that could be considered secondary. In old Europe, there’s evidence of peasants who would put a drill bit made out of wood into a round hole, and begin to spin it between their palms on one end, and within the hole on the other. This is a process that could have been completed faster by tying a cord around the drill and attempting to pull on each end. The Ancient Greeks were the ones that utilized lenses or concave mirrors in order to find a way to manipulate the sun’s rays, and burning glasses were also able to be used by the Mexican Aztecs and the Chinese.
These methods that people used so that they could ignite and control flame date all the way back to the Paleolithic era, when a number of Stone Age tool makers found out that attempting to chip flints is something that can easily produce sparkes. That technique started becoming even more efficient following people’s discovery of iron and steel, somewhere around five thousand years before now. In the North American continent, the Eskimos were able to produce a spark that would burn very slowly by striking and chipping quartz against iron pyrites, a specific compound that happens to contain sulfur within itself. The Chinese people were able to light their fires by the process of striking and chipping porcelain with bamboo. Tinder stayed as the method of fire-lighting people would usually find themselves doing up until the middle of the nineteenth century. The process of lighting a simple flame was able to be revolutionized due to the discovery of the chemical phosphorus. The chemical was able to be Isolated in the year 1669 by a German alchemist making attempts to transmute silver into gold. Because of the fact that he was impressed by the element’s ability to be combustible, a number of 17th century chemists made attempts to manufacture fire-lighting devices from the chemical, though the results they were able to get only proved the chemical as dangerously inflammable. With phosphorus also simply costing the equivalent of several of the starters they would have liked to make.
The scientist’s mission for a practical match started to really ramp up following the year 1781 ( I am not one hundred percent certain though). This was the year where a group of chemists from the country of France were able to come up with what was known at the time as Phosphoric Candle or what could be considered an Ethereal Match, which was simply a sealed glass tube that contained a piece of paper with a twist at the end that was tipped with phosphorus. The moment the tube is broken by someone, air begins to rush in, which is what is causing the phosphorus to combust. One more device that was popular in the United States was what was called the Instantaneous Light Box, this invention was a bottle which was filled to the brim with the sulphuric acid, it was into this solution that splints that were treated with chemicals were dipped into.The very first matches that and any resemblance to the ones that are used today were made in the year 1827 by a man named Walker. Walker was an Englishman, and had a profession as a pharmacist. He happened to borrow the formula from a person in the military that constructs rockets. Walker, for whatever reason, was never able to patent his invention, and only three years following that, it was then imitated by a man named Samuel Jones, who tried marketing his “new” product as Lucifers. Around the same exact time, there was a French chemistry student that was named Charles Sauria, and he happened to produce the very first strike anywhere match by the process of substituting white phosphorus for what is known as potassium chlorate within the formula that Walker had created. However, due to the fact that white phosphorus is in fact a deadly poison, from 1845 match makers that happened to become exposed to the deadly fumes unfortunately had given into necrosis, a specific disease that has a horrible effect of eating away the bone in an individual’s jaw. It was not until 1906 that the substance was finally able to become banned.
That was somewhere around sixty two years following the actions of a Swedish man that also happened to be a chemist, and simply named Pasch. He happened to find a way to discover red, or amorphous, phosphorus that was not toxic, which became a development that was eventually exploited commercially by Pasch’s compatriot in 1885. This invention contained potassium chlorate, which has been proven to have a combustion temperature of one hundred eighty two degrees centigrade. America had not been able to catch up to Europe in match making technology as well as safety standards. Actually, It was not until the year 1900 that the Diamond Match Company had purchased a new patent for the sake of safety standards, but it did not function correctly in the differing weather conditions that were prevailing in the United States, and it was a whole eleven years prior to scientists finally being able to adapt the French patent for the use in the United States. The American people are now able to claim a number of firsts in match technology and marketing. In the year 1892, the Diamond Match Company was able to pioneer matches that came in a booklet. The innovation was not able to catch on until after the year 1896. This was when a brewery had come up with the novel idea of advertising the products it is coming out with, within matchbooks. In the modern world, book matches are the most widely utilized type of match in the United States, with ninety percent given out free by hotels, restaurants, and other establishments.

Aside from slip resistant shoes, there are a few more necessary components to a person's uniform when working in the kitchen. While not all kitchens opt to use them, most kitchen uniforms require an apron to protect the wearer from getting grease, grime, or many other things on their actual restaurant uniform below. Oftentimes this is because if a cook needs to leave the kitchen for whatever reason and go to the front of house, where the customers will be, they should look presentable with a clean uniform, rather than covered in the food that they are preparing. Aprons are also used as a quick means to wipe your hands when necessary.

Besides slip-resistant shoes, there are a few more critical components to a staff member's uniform when working in the kitchen. Some kitchens prefer that their staff wear hats or hairnets. This is practiced to prevent hair from falling into the customers' food as it is being prepared. Additionally, hair falling into food without notice may cost the establishment revenue in food waste as the meal will likely have to be re-prepared, and potential customers may be warded off through negative online reviews.
Another industry standard is to ban kitchen staff from wearing watches or jewelry. Personal attire such as these can possibly bring unwanted bacteria into the kitchen and subsequently cause the customer to be served a harmful meal. Although not required in all kitchens, most kitchen uniforms necessitate an apron to protect the wearer from having grease, grime, or other things soil their actual restaurant uniform below.
This is typically done so that if a cook has to exit the kitchen for any reason and go to the front of the house, where the customers are, they should look presentable with a clean uniform instead of one stained with the food that they are preparing. Aprons are used as a quick means to wipe your hands when necessary. Also, utilizing an apron with pockets provides storage for towels, writing utensils, and thermometers.

When you are making sandwiches on the back line, it is crucial for you to make sure that you have all of the bread sizes stocked up and arranged according to size for the many different sandwich varieties we offer. For example, it would be necessary to keep small buns on hand, for kids’ meal burgers (including both the cheese and plain varieties), and other small sandwiches such as the fish or the chicken. You would also need to keep the next largest set of buns on hand, in case someone orders one of the bigger burgers or sandwiches. Similarly, you would need to keep artisan buns readily available in case of an order for a specialty sandwich. It may also be necessary to keep sub and hoagie rolls fully stocked as well, if your establishment offers such varieties of sandwich. If breakfast or brunch options are included on the menu, then bagels of many different flavor and texture profiles will be required to adequately prepare the back line for the eventuality of such sandwiches being ordered.

Parents couldn’t understand the concepts, and the students were left with no help except during school. Now, teachers have even more struggle with homework, because parents have no understanding of how these concepts are being introduced. It is simple to see how this can start to affect every aspect of the classroom. If kids struggle with homework and can receive no help from their parents, how are teachers supposed to handle quizzes or tests? This could inflate the grades negatively, because they could not grasp the homework.

Employees typically fall into two categories, sellers and merch. Sellers are constantly on the floor approaching customer and asking them what they need. They float around looking for “targets.” It sounds harsh, but they have to make a certain amount of money per hour. They typically get the most dressed up and have a huge client base. They are never still. They are always running around, trying to find new clients, and they are good at what they do. It is amazing to see them in action. On the other side of the equation is “merch,” short for merchandise. These are the people who directly handle the merchandise. They restock shelves, fix bra displays, and also sell merchandise to customers. They do a bit of everything in the store. Working with merchandise can get overwhelming, because you are expected to do so much, while still making sure that your table is in order. It really is the best job for multi-taskers. Both categories can be exhausting, but fulfilling. If you are more outgoing and goal-oriented, you should sell on the floor. If you are more into organization and selling on your own terms then choose merch. Each job comes with its own set of challenges, but they are both rewarding

Employees typically fall into two categories, sellers and merch. The first type of employee we will talk about is the seller. Now, sellers are constantly on the floor approaching customer and asking them what they need. A seller can not wait for a customer to approach them. They float around looking for “targets.” It sounds harsh, but they have to make a certain amount of money per hour. After all, sellers earn their money off of commission, so it is important to get a client. They typically get the most dressed up and have a huge client base. Since they are the first impression of the company and product, a seller can not appear slovenly or uncaring in appearance. They are never still. They are always running around, trying to find new clients, and they are good at what they do. It is amazing to see them in action. Sellers are the parts of a business that provide motion.
On the other side of the equation is “merch,” short for merchandise. These are the people who directly handle the merchandise. They are responsible for making sure everything is organized. They restock shelves, fix bra displays, and also, though not their primary role, will sometimes sell merchandise to customers if there are no sells person around. Merch maintains the look of the store. They make sure every product is displayed correctly and placed in its proper station. They do a bit of everything in the store. Working with merchandise can get overwhelming, because you are expected to do so much, while still making sure that your table is in order. It really is the best job for multi-taskers.
Both categories can be exhausting, but fulfilling. Each one has its own specific kind of requirements and quirks. For example, if you are more outgoing and goal-oriented, you should sell on the floor. You will be more suited to greeting and talking customers through the process of purchasing items. You will have specific task and always meeting new people. On the other hand, if you are more into organization and selling on your own terms then choose merch. This way you will be performing a multitude of different tasks besides the repetitive nature of sells. If you do not wish to engage with a customer, you can call a seller and you can return to organization or making sure product is on the floor to sell. Each job comes with its own set of challenges, but they are both rewarding.

Hello, thank you for taking the time to read this. Today, I will show you the various things you can do to help troubleshoot with a resident over the phone. The idea is to not set appointments for residents unless we need to. Most of the time, you’ll find yourself with a pleasant resident, who is understanding, but there are times you’ll be faced with a resident who doesn’t understand and will wish to just set an appointment. Remember to always be calm and polite, and understand that residents almost never want to be calling in; we’re their last and final hope.

Greetings. I am thankful that you are investing your time in reading this. Today, I will show you how you can offer troubleshooting assistance to a resident over the phone. Troubleshooting does not simply mean to offer advice. The word entails a requirement to gather information, process what you learned, determine a solution, and finally put the solution into action. That being said, we aim not to create an appointment for a resident unless it is deemed to be necessary.
Throughout the majority of your experience, you will engage with pleasant residents who are empathetic and understanding. However, there will be times when you encounter a resident who does not understand and will want to make an appointment. Though they may be communicating how they feel with frustration, we ask that you do not reciprocate their tone back at them. Remember to always react with politeness and in a calm fashion. This manner can be conveyed if you utilize the strategy of attempting to smile through the phone. Often, a positive attitude is contagious and will influence the course of the conversation. We want you to understand that residents rarely ever want to be calling in. We consider this a significant responsibility because we are their last and final hope.

The right to self-governance is thus also an integral part of the right to self-determination.

It includes the right to decide how leaders are elected or other chosen within the communities; how to promote their languages and cultures and how to teach them.

I will say one more time, The liberty to provide government for thyself once again is not an immediate motivator to independence, but rather the liberty to decide the actions taken upon their own internal trials and tribulations. It does not disclude the liberty to make the decision on how the ones that lead are chosen upon, as well as others chosen upon, within the social environments; the method in which to spread the word of their languages and cultures and the method in which to be sure they are educated.

Understanding the voice of the customer is not always easy, especially on your own. If you try to do custom research projects for every decision your marketing and planning team makes, you’ll be broke and won’t have any money to actually implement what the research tells you to do, which is exactly why many don’t do research. For this reason, you need to find a good partner. You need someone who does research in the areas of interest you have, such as the company I work for, which has the largest syndicated survey around consumer-oriented healthcare information. This allows health systems from across the country to examine our syndicated research in their particular markets. Yes, their competitors may also be using our research, but if not, it is definitely a competitive advantage to have access.

Giving empathy toward the voice of the individual you are attempting to sell your product or services to definitely comes with its challenges, especially when you are only trying to achieve it on your own. If you make attempts into doing personalized research projects in regards to every single decision you or your marketing and planning teams want to make, you will quickly find yourself without all of your funds and you will not have any money that will allow you to actually implement and apply what the research is signifying for you to act upon, which, in fact, is the exact reason why a large sum of companies and marketing teams do not even think of attempting to do any research whatsoever. Due to the fact that this reason is apparent, you are required to search for a solid and trustworthy person to designate as your partner. You will require an individual who will do the research in the fields of study you have interest in, such as the company I represent and provide my services to. My company has been able to obtain the largest syndicated survey revolving around consumer oriented information regarding healthcare. This will allow for health systems from all over the entire country to examine and analyze our syndicated research within whatever particular market is relevant to their needs.

An example of this is as follows: Imagine a customer is on a two-part rate and used 1000 kWh on average during the time period, so that is their baseline. Prior to the time period, the customer receives notification that the marginal rate is $2/kWh because of a flood at the generation site. The standard rate is $0.15/kWh, so they will pay $0.15 * 1000, or $15 for the base rate. But then anything over that amount gets very expensive ($2/kWh), so they will not want any additional usage. (For example, if they added an assembly line, it could cost them thousands to run it.) But if they shut down totally and are in a two-part rate that provides rebates, they will then get a credit of almost $2000 for that period! This can really hurt the provider, as now they have overpriced the usage and have excess usage available that may go unpaid for.

A perfect example of this is elaborated as follows: Imagine there is a customer who is on a two-part rate and used 1000 kWh on average during a certain time period, so you can consider that their baseline. Prior to the time period, the customer receives a notification that the marginal rate is $2/kWh because of some unforeseen circumstances, maybe because of a flood at the generation site. Because the standard rate is $0.15/kWh, the customer will have to pay $0.15 * 1000, or $15, for the base rate. And then anything over that amount gets very expensive ($2/kWh), so it is natural that they will not want any additional usage as it would jeopardize their budget. Take, for example, if they added an additional assembly line and it would cost them thousands to run it, then no one would like to go for that extra cost. This creates an incentive for the customer to substantially reduce their usage to avoid paying the higher marginal rate. But if they go on to shut down totally and are in a two-part rate that provides rebates, they will then get a credit of almost $2000 for that period! That would be super beneficial for the customer. But on the other hand, this can really hurt the provider, as now they have overpriced the usage and have excess usage available that may go unpaid for. This puts the provider in a difficult and uncertain position. This example effectively shows how this kind of pricing system can impact or lead to unexpected outcomes for both customers and their providers. It is evident that for customers, it can create a situation where it is more expensive to increase usage, and on the other hand, for providers, it can result in lost revenue if customers reduce their consumption or shut down completely in order to receive rebates.

Designing flooring layouts is fun and easy to do in AutoCAD and Adobe Illustrator. You first need to know what the client is looking for in the design. We design based on the theming they want in the area, as well as with budget constraints in mind. They often have different needs for their designs, and our tiles are cut based on those needs. The simplest designs are all squares, followed by designs that are half-squares, or triangles. More complex designs involve die-cut objects or laser-cut objects. Some designs are also cut by hand on-site. Once you know what sort of design the client would like, you can begin.

Designing different flooring layouts can be remarkably simple and even enjoyable to do in AutoCAD and Adobe Illustrator. The first thing you will need to know is what the client is hoping to see in the design. Our designs take into account the theme that the client desires for an area, as well as any of the project’s budget constraints. Budget constraints are an important consideration in every project, since they may affect every step of the cutting process, determining everything from design size and complexity to material selection. Clients often have very different needs for their designs, and we must cut all of our tiles according to those individual needs. Some clients have spartan needs, requiring only the simplest of floor plans at the most economical prices available, while others come to us with purely aesthetic concerns, desiring the most elegant options available in material and design. Most clients’ wishes fall somewhere between these two extremes, and it is important for us to discover exactly where on the spectrum they lie. The very simplest of designs are squares, closely followed by half-squares, or triangles if you prefer. More complex designs require the use of die-cut objects or laser-cut objects. A few designs are even cut by hand, in an artisanal manner on-site. As previously mentioned, the first step is to find out what kind of design the client has in mind, only after that can we begin to prepare whatever tools and materials are necessary to cut the design.

There are various types of identity which show how a person fits into different situations. A personal identity is developed from our self-concept, how we perceive ourselves. This can be influenced by any number of things; however, it primarily consists of our current self and our idealised self. There is an observable self that is close to our true self, consisting of thoughts, feelings, and behaviours; however, the behaviours do not always align with thoughts and feelings. This is called cognitive dissonance, where our thoughts and actions aren’t in tune—our actions do not represent our feelings or vice versa. For us to change into our idealised selves, we must change either the actions or the feelings.
|
There is a multitude of identities that display how a person fits into differing situations. Personal identity is established four our self-concept, which is how we perceive ourselves. The perception of ourselves is subject to influence by numerous things. Various factors, including genetics, upbringing, culture, experiences, relationships, and society, shape our sense of self.
Our personality traits are influenced by genetics, affecting our self-concept. Our sense of self is also shaped by our upbringing and family relationships, as they provide our earliest and most significant socialization experiences. Additionally, culture and society impact our self-concept through the values, beliefs, and norms we internalize. At the same time, the media, including social media, can present idealized standards of beauty, success, and happiness that influence our sense of self. Our experiences, both positive and negative, can shape our self-concept, with negative feedback or traumatic events leading to low self-esteem and a negative self-concept.
On the other hand, positive experiences and feedback can enhance our self-esteem and self-concept. Our relationships with others play a significant role in shaping our sense of self. Our interactions with family, friends, romantic partners, and colleagues can impact how we see ourselves and our place in the world. Our true self is reflected in our observable self, which includes thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. However, sometimes our actions do not align with our thoughts and feelings, creating a state of cognitive dissonance. To become our idealized selves, we must change our actions or feelings.

What the future holds for utility rates and billing is unclear. Technology continues to advance, and utilities are notorious for being slow movers. It’s been twenty years since open competition has been discussed in the US, but only a handful of states have successfully become competitive. Electric vehicles, battery storage, climate change, and other factors can all influence the utility. For these reasons, a flexible billing system and strong procedures are needed to make sure the utility isn’t left behind.

There was aspect for utilities that often gets overlooked. It is a painful aspect for many people every month, and that is billing. What the future holds for utility rates and billing is unclear. In addition, technology continues to advance, and utilities are notorious for being slow movers. Utility companies have long been classified as natural monopolies, whereby they are the sole provider of utilities in a state or area. However, there is a current trend to slowly erode utility company’s status as natural monopoly, thereby allowing for competition to start to grow in the industry. On the other hand, it’s been twenty years since open competition has been discussed in the US, but only a handful of states have successfully become competitive. Moreover, it demonstrates the extremely slow pace of the industry.
Now, electric vehicles, battery storage, climate change, and other factors can all influence the utility. Furthermore, these factors will only be increasing and becoming more prevalent, such as climate change. However, if utility companies do not find a way of adapting quickly to these aforementioned factors, then it could really hurt the consumer. For these reasons, a flexible billing system and strong procedures are needed to make sure the utility isn’t left behind.

Some say that this is because the films were not popular, but that can’t be right. Get Out sold huge numbers of tickets, especially for a horror film with a black protagonist. It was nominated for Best Picture. That’s a pretty big deal for a horror film. I don’t quite think it deserved that, but I’m happy for Jordan Peele. He’s a talented guy. He earned that best screenplay award.

There are some people who say that this is because the films were not very popular, but I believe that cannot be right at all. It is very evident that the film 'Get Out' did extremely well and sold a huge number of tickets at the box office, especially considering the fact that it was a horror film with a black protagonist. The film went on to be later nominated in the Best Picture category. And that is something extraordinary and a pretty big deal since it was a horror film. Personally, to be quite honest, I do not quite think that 'Get Out' deserved that recognition, but I am definitely very happy for the film's writer and director, Jordan Peele. He is actually an extremely talented guy. He certainly deserved and earned that best screenplay award, which he received.

The next step to remember is that when you hear a siren, you must press the response buttons. There are two buttons: one on the front and one on the back. They must be pressed and released at the same time to be effective. The patient has approximately forty-five seconds to do so before treatment is administered. A siren indicates that an undesirable rhythm has been identified by the system that would warrant a treatment or shock to correct the arrhythmia. However, if an arrhythmia occurs, more than 95% of people become unconscious due to inadequate blood flow to the brain. If you are awake and alert, it is unlikely that an arrhythmia is occurring. Pushing the response buttons simultaneously will delay treatment. Some people get confused and wonder why they would delay a treatment if the monitor seems to indicate that something is wrong. It’s important for people to remember that there are other things that would cause the monitor’s alarm to go off besides a fatal arrhythmia, including loose electrodes that are not making good contact with the skin. In these instances, treatment is not required. Always remember, if you hear a siren, press the response buttons. If you are not aware of the siren because you are unconscious, treatment is required and will be administered by the LifeVest.
|
The step to recall is that once you catch the siren's blare, you must hit the response buttons: the one in the front and the one in the back. They must be pushed and let go of at the exact time to work correctly. The patient has around forty-five seconds to perform this action before treatment is given. The LifeVest monitor reads your electrocardiogram (EKG) continuously. An EKG is a line graph that shows changes in the heart's electrical activity over time. An instrument makes it called an electrocardiograph.
Suppose you have ventricular tachycardia (which is a rapid heartbeat) or ventricular fibrillation (which is a fast, uncontrolled, weak heartbeat). In that case, the device sounds an alarm to validate if you can respond. The vest's primary function is to monitor heart rate and discover when an irregular rhythm occurs. The stated treatment is to restore the heartbeat to a regular pace through a series of shocks. A siren signals that an unwanted rhythm has been discovered in the system that would call for treatment to rectify the arrhythmia.
Arrhythmia is more commonly known as an irregular heartbeat. It may occur if the heart beats too quickly or slowly or has an unusual rhythm. The primary causes are narrowed heart arteries, heart attack, abnormal heart valves, reactions from previous heart surgery, heart failure, cardiomyopathy, and other heart damage.
Of course, if an arrhythmia does happen, over 95% of people will go unconscious because insufficient blood goes to the brain. If you are conscious and aware, no arrhythmia is probably taking place. Pressing the response buttons at the same time will postpone treatment. Some people get puzzled by this and ponder why treatment should be delayed if the monitor shows something is amiss. People need to recall that numerous things might set the alarm off and not just a fatal arrhythmia, such as loose electrodes that do not have a suitable attachment to the skin. In cases like this, treatment is not necessary. If you catch the siren's blare, hit the response buttons. If you do not notice the siren since you have lost consciousness, treatment is needed and will be given by LifeVest. After the shock, if your heartbeat returns to normal, the alarms stop, and LifeVest returns to its normal monitoring mode.
However, the treatment cycle repeats if your heartbeat doesn't return to normal and the arrhythmia continues. You can get up to five treatment shocks. If you are concerned about how long the LifeVest can offer support to you, clients have worn a LifeVest for as long as about seven years. However, many people just wear them for a few weeks or a few months.

Number three, make sure someone close knows where you are. Give them the address and number of the photographer and/or studio in case anything is weird, so they have some details to help. If you’d prefer a chaperone to come with you, then explain to the photographer that you’d feel better with a chaperone (always be honest) and they should have no problems. If they kick up a fuss, then that speaks for itself!

As for the third thing, it is crucial that someone you are close to knows where the shoot takes place. Give them the address and number of the photographer and/or studio. You can also give them the photographer's name and whatever additional contact details you think of to ensure safety in the situation. This is a precautionary measure just in case anything is weird so that the one close to you has the details they need in order to lend help.
If it makes you more comfortable to have a chaperone come with you, then let the photographer know that it would make you feel better to have an additional party present (you should always be honest in situations like this). They should find no issue with your request. If they're at all objective for some reason, then that is evidence that something could go wrong and this is not a suitable situation for you to put yourself in.

The country of India saw this as an opportunity to weaken Pakistan as India was flanked by both countries. India decided to quietly back the Bengalis of East Pakistan to deliberately weaken Pakistan. The Bengalis also sought support from Great Britain and the latter realised that this would provide them with a foothold on the world stage to again assert its waning authority. There were many who felt that this could be resolved diplomatically, and attempts were made, however both sides were bullish in their stance.

The country of India saw this as an opportunity to weaken Pakistan. This was important to India, since it saw Pakistan as a regional rival and at the time it was being flanked by Pakistan from two different directions. They reasoned that the Bengali situation provided them with an ideal set of circumstances to effectively clear one of these two hostile entities from their borders, greatly improving their strategic situation while simultaneously greatly weakening a potential adversary. With these strategic goals in mind, India decided to quietly provide support for the Bengalis of East Pakistan as part of a plan to deliberately weaken Pakistan. While happy to accept India’s support, the Bengalis did not stop there, also seeking aid from Great Britain. Great Britain, for its part, believed that providing support to the Bengalis would allow them to regain some of their waning authority in the region and on the world stage as a whole. There were many individuals and organizations who felt that the situation could have been resolved diplomatically, however the stakeholders and supporters of each side were firmly entrenched in their positions and could not be coaxed into compromise.

The use of swings in a NICU is incredibly beneficial, especially for the NAS population. We should be endeavoring to add these swings to each of the unit’s 203 rooms by the year 2024. The specific pros of the swing can span across all infant populations, but the NAS and feeder-grower populations benefit most greatly. Since this is the population we are seeing more frequently in our NICU, it is one we must endeavor to support more financially as we prepare developmentally friendly environments.

There are many advantages to the use of swings in a NICU (Neonatal Intensive Care Unit), and they are incredibly beneficial, especially for the NAS (Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome) population. NAS is a group of conditions caused when an infant withdraws from certain drugs he is exposed to in the womb before birth. NAS is said to be caused when the mother takes opioids during her pregnancy. It is essential that we all endeavor to add these important swings for infants to each of the 203 rooms in the unit by the end of the year 2024. Although the specific pros and advantages of the swing can span across all infant populations, the NAS and feeder-grower populations benefit most greatly when they are put in these swings.

Unlike many other professions, counselling is largely based on the genuineness of the relationship that a counsellor decides to form with their client. In this sense, it is very crucial that as a counsellor I am aware of my own insecurities, my own anxieties, and my own fear and to continually work to ensure that these issues do not negatively impact my counselling process with my clients.

As opposed to a multitude of other professions, a counselor's primary aim is centered mainly upon the genuineness of the relationship that the counselor decides to form with a client. Keeping this logic in mind, it is incredibly vital that, as a counselor, I have the intrinsic prowess to be aware of my own insecurities, my own anxieties, and my own fears.
If I am unable to navigate my own emotions successfully, how can a client trust me to guide theirs? Attempting to counsel another while lacking self-awareness is an occupational contradiction. In order to be of quality in my profession, I have to ensure that these issues do not negatively impact my counseling process with my clients. If my counseling were negatively affected due to my inability to maintain intrinsic awareness, the client might lose faith in the entire counseling process.

Also known as Scrum, agile development is a form of project management used to develop products. This methodology is different from the standard methodology, which is waterfall. In waterfall, there is a “gate 2” at the start (and end) of each development phase. The various phases in waterfall are requirements gathering, testing, development (programming), and deployment. In contrast to Agile, waterfall doesn’t not have rollbacks.: Once a stage is complete, there is no way of modifying it. That has frequently been considered a disadvantage. On the other hand, in Agile, there are multiple iterations during which one can mouify requirements. The goal of Agile is to develop a deployable application by the end of every iteration (also called a “sprint”). Each sprint is usually comprised of a two week period. In Agile(which is also known as Scrum), there is a constant feedback loop. The principles of Agile development can be found in the Agile Manifesto which is found online. The sifferent Agile methodologies are: Scrum (most popular), Scrum illustration, Scrum roles, Scrum ceremonies, Scrum (daily), sprint demo, and Scrum artifacts. When does one use Agile over waterfall? When one has to quickly develop a project in a domain where there is already a lot of work done. In comparison, waterfall can be used whenit’s actually the other way around. Another type of agile development is Lean (LEAN), which commonly uses Kanban boards. These are boards that have different stages (like To Do, In Progress, Done), and everyone is assigned to that project, to a certain task. In Agile there is also what is called retrospectives, which are a way to keep the team up to date with what has been done. In Retros, as they are commonly called, there are many different methods to do this. For example, a common method is to use Post-it notes to create three categories: mad, sad, glad. very person has to write a few things they are mad/sad/glad about, then the master of ceremonies tells everyone to put the notes up on the board and he groups the common topics together. Then there is a round of voting, which is done by the “dots” method, in which everyone gets two to three dots. They vote on one of the topics, then the Scrum master of ceremonies writes or discusses the topics in order of priority. Another commonly done thing is the “ball” method, which works by giving a ball to someone in the team,then only the person that holds the ball can talk about the problems or events in the team. The other team members can ask for the ball by having their hand raised, and the ball is passed in a circle to the person on the right or just by selecting someone with their hand up. Retros are good because they help analyse the outcome of a sprint. They also help to prioritize important topics. This is called timeboxing. Teams can often get bored of doing the same Retro method every week, so the team has to keep the Retro method fresh every week, or every two weeks. Agile is commonly used for test-driven development, Test-driven development is a way of developing by writing tests before you write any code. When the code is compiled, the tests are run against it, and you know which tests run and which don’t, which gives a good idea of how to do the test. In Java, a common thing to use to write tests is called JUnit, and there are four versions.JUnit 4 is the most commonly used one at the moment. Other tools are like Docker and Mockito help with writing mock tests. For example, you need a database and you don’t actually have a database, but you have some code that uses a database. You can create a mock of the database without actually making a database, because making databases is very tedious, That’s an example. Another example is using coded completion in IDEs. This is done by scanning the libraries of the programming language. Test-driven development is also used to keep track of good code in Git or Git-like programs, because every time someone commits, the tests are passed, and you can see who commited what and if it runs or not. An advantage of this, which is called continuous integration, is that when you are commiting code at least daily, you can always have the option to rollback to the last version of the program that was properly running. Other examples of Git-like programs are Jenkins and Bamboo. Do note that Git is for GitLab and GitHub. They are not different versions of Git, they are just web portals that belong to different companies, but they still use Git on the backend. When one comes across Agile and Git, one is also taught all about web services and REST. REST is a universal API standard which tells programs how to transmit things so that they are standardised. For example, JSON is a very global form of transmitting data. Virtually any modern programming language uses JSON to transfer data between different environments, like between a web server and a Java server. APIs commonly use JSON to transfer data, like Twilio, which uses services to send SMs to carriers all over the world, but one does not have to see their code implementation. The whole idea behind APIs is that you can just call universal functions, and they will handle everything else.In the case of Twilio, you can just call a function that gets sent to them with a country code, phone number and a message to be sent.hey will handle all the code details about how to get the message sent to a specific country, and take into account all of the carriers that are available. APIs are the statement that models, “Don’t try to reinvent the wheel.”

Also known by the name of Scrum, agile development is a form of project management that is used to aid in the development of different products. This methodology is a bit different from the standard methodology, which is known as “waterfall”. Waterfall has long been seen as the standard model of project management, particularly in engineering projects such as with software development. This methodology focuses on preparation and information gathering by carefully preparing as much data about the project as possible and methodically constructing a concrete set of goals aimed at accomplishing the project’s goals. The steps to be undertaken are thus constructed as a series of independent cells, with the advent of one depending on the completion of the one before. In this system each step must be conducted in a completely linear order, and entirely independent of one another, with absolutely no way of returning to stages once they have been completed. In waterfall, there is a “gate 2” at the start (and the end) of each development phase. The various phases in waterfall are the requirements for gathering, testing, development (programming), and deployment of the products. One of the primary contrasts between waterfall and Agile is that waterfall does not make use of rollbacks. That is to reiterate that once a stage is complete, there is no way of going back and modifying it later. That fact has frequently been brought up as a significant disadvantage of waterfall. On the other hand, in Agile, there are multiple iterations during which one has the ability to modify the requirements. The goal of Agile is to develop a deployable application by the end of every iteration (iterations are also called “sprints” sometimes). Usually, each of these sprints will consist of a two week period. In Agile (which I feel the need to remind you is also referred to as “Scrum” on occasion), there is a constant feedback loop present.
The principles of Agile development can also be found in the Agile Manifesto, a work which was created in early 2001 through the combined efforts of many leading thinkers in the field of software development, including representatives from reputable institutions in the field such as Xtreme Programming, SCRUM, DSDM, Adaptive Software Development, Crystal, Feature-Driven Development, and Pragmatic Programming.The Agile Manifesto can be found online, and its message can be essentially boiled down to call for a shifting away from traditional corporate values and towards ones that place greater emphasis on the importance and needs of the employees as individuals throughout the development process. There are many different Agile methodologies, some of which include: Scrum (which is the most popular option), Scrum illustration, Scrum roles, Scrum ceremonies, Scrum (daily), sprint demo, and Scrum artifacts.
One might wonder when they should use Agile over waterfall? Usually, one should choose Agile when one has to quickly develop a project in a domain where quite a bit of work has already been done. In comparison, waterfall is most often used when the situation is turned the other way around, and very little previous work is available to aid in the development of the current project. Another type of Agile development is Lean (LEAN), which is commonly known for making use of Kanban boards. Kanban boards are boards that have different stages upon them, such as “To Do, In Progress, Done”. Each team member then receives an assignment to that project, and further to a certain task falling underneath the project’s umbrella. In Agile there is also another management tool that is commonly known as “retrospectives”. Retrospectives are a way to keep the team up to date with what tasks have been accomplished. Retrospectives are also commonly referred to as “Retros” and they usually consist of conducting some style of team debriefing after the completion of a sprint (remember that this term refers to period of work lasting around two weeks) in order to unpack all of the things that went well and all of the things that did not during that time.
There are many different methods available to engage in Retros. For example, one particularly common method is to use Post-it notes to create three categories: mad, sad, glad. Each and every team member is then expected to write up a few things about which they are feeling mad/sad/glad, then the master of ceremonies instructs the group to place their notes up on the board. He then rearranges them upon the board, grouping the common topics together. After that little bit of reshuffling the team holds a round of voting, which is carried out by utilizing the “dots” method. The dots method is a collective decision making in which everyone receives two to three dots with which to vote on one of the topics. In this way the results of the vote end up not unlike those of a multiple-choice survey conducted amongst team members. After the voting process has been completed the Scrum master of ceremonies writes or discusses the topics in order of elected priority. Another commonly performed method of Retros is referred to as the “ball” method, a process which functions via the giving of a ball to someone in the team. Once the ball has been delivered, only the person that is currently holding the ball has the right to talk about the problems or events in the team. The other team members can ask to receive the ball by raising their hands, at which point the ball is to be passed along, either in a circle with each person passing the ball to the person on their right, or simply by selecting the individual who raised their hand to be the next speaker.
Retros are important parts of the Agile development process because they help teams analyze the outcome of a sprint. They can also help to prioritize important topics. This is a process called timeboxing. Oftentimes, teams can quickly grow bored of doing the same Retro method every week, so the team is encouraged to keep the Retro method fresh every week, or at least every two weeks. Agile is commonly used for test-driven development. Test-driven development is a way of developing by writing the tests before you actually write any code. When the code is compiled, the tests are run against it, and you will then find out which tests run and which do not, which gives a good starting point for ideas of how to do the test. In Java, it is not an uncommon thing to write tests called JUnits, of which there are four different versions. JUnit 4 is the most commonly used one at the present moment. Other tools, such as Docker and Mockito, can help you with the writing of mock tests. For example, you may be in need of a database. Perhaps you do not actually have a database, but you do have some code that uses a database. You can then create a mock of the database without actually making a database, which can be very useful because making databases can become extremely tedious. That is but one example. Another example is the use of coded completion in IDEs. This is accomplished through scanning the libraries of the programming language itself. Test-driven development can also be used to keep track of good code in Git or Git-like programs. This is because every time someone commits, the tests are passed, and you can then see who committed what and if it will run or not.

When one comes across Agile and Git, one is also taught all about web services and REST. REST is a universal application programming interface (API) standard which gives programs the instructions that they need to know in order to transmit things in a manner that maintains their standardization. For example, JSON is a very global form of transmitting data. Virtually any modern programming language uses JSON as a method of transferring data between different environments, such as between a web server and a Java server. APIs commonly use JSON to transfer data, such as Twilio, which uses services to send SMs to carriers all over the world, but does not necessarily have to keep their code implementation visible to do so. The whole idea behind APIs is that you can just call in universal functions, and they will handle everything else. In the case of Twilio, for instance, you can just call down a function that gets sent to them with a country code, phone number and whatever message is to be sent. The APIs are capable of handling all the code details having to do with getting the message sent to a specific country, and can also take into account all of the carriers that are available for you. APIs are the statement that models the old adage, “Do not try to reinvent the wheel.”

Today, I will be talking about the trip I took to London with my three other friends. At first we decided how to get there without having to pay anything at all. We researched the cheapest price to get to London and back without using any expensive public transports, such as the train or a national express bus. Our aim was to get the transport as low as ten dollars per person round-trip. Finally, we decided to meet at my home and research into the transport. After that, we had a talk about how to plan the journey back to London. It was three of my friends and myself. It was a perfect getaway after all the coursework and exams at the end of the first semester of my master’s program. Finally, we decided to take Megabus to Victoria Coach Station in London. We found cheap tickets as low as five dollars for a single ticket per person and, for a return, four dollars per person. We were happy with this decision to go to London using Megabus. The bus stop is close to my home, approximately a fifteen-minute walk away. After that, we discussed what type of activities we should go for. For example, which museums should we visit? My friends have never seen the London Eye or other famous London areas. So we asked Google for a quick tips on how to get the best service we can on our journey. After that, we found the five top places to visit in London, which are the London Eye, a few other good museums, and some parks. So we settled in and went for an early night’s rest because our itinerary started at 6 a.m. We would get to London within two hours. From there, we went straight to the nearest food chain where we could get some good-quality breakfast for a good price. We went to some local London cafe where we had coffee and some other snacks. After that, we went for a walk to Buckingham Palace. It took fifteen to thirty-five minutes of walking, with several stops along the way to look around on the way to the Palace. From there, we had a look at the Palace. It was incredibly beautiful and we all enjoyed it. We all took several photos at the Palace and shared them across Facebook and Instagram so that our friends back home in Coventry can view them. From there, we had a walk around the Palace and read every quote we could find which highlights the importance of this palace. From there, we had a walk to local places such as Big Ben and had the opportunity to take a picture in front of it. We also took a picture in front of the famous London Eye. Unfortunately, we could not enter the London Eye because it was closed for a week due to repairs. But that didn’t stop us. We took several pictures of the London Eye and we all moved on. By then, we had walked about five miles and we were all tired. So we decided to get some good fast food. We met at a local London Chinese food place that specializes in noodles. We liked the place, but not the price. At that moment, a single package of noodles cost eight dollars and extra 2.50 for a drink. So we had a talk and we all decided to capitalize on this fabulous offer. Then, we all ordered three different varieties of noodles from this shop. One friend ordered a vegetarian option, another friend ordered chicken and beer, and I ordered chicken, pork, and beef with a Coca-Cola along with it. We paid approximately around twelve dollars each. We were not happy with the price we paid, but we figured it was for the experience. It took us a good forty minutes to finish the food. Two of my friends couldn’t finish the food due to excess food and if was covered in oil and little bit spicy. So I ate their food, too, except for the vegetarian option because I prefer meat. Then, we went past several other stops, such as museums. One of the museums we went to is called the British History Museum. It was huge in size and we all liked the entrance. In the entrance there was a guy selling beautiful old-style cashew nuts, which we all bought since they only cost two dollars per pack. From there, we went inside the museum and it was beautifully designed. We all liked it and its diverse range of collections. We all went our separate ways. I went to the Egyptian collection, my friend went to the African collection and another friend went to the Asian collection. It took a good three hours for us to meet up after the museum, but it was worth it and we all liked it. We all had a rest and came up with the idea to just to see a local movie for a while before we figure out what to do next. Then, we carried on moving and going to places that seemed interesting to us so that we could take good pictures and move on. From there, we went to a different theater or museum that was showing an art collection. It was a great art collection and we all liked it. And it only took us twenty minutes to view this art collection because of its boring acts. We didn’t like it and we moved on walking to the other parts of thestreet. It was great, but the day was getting short. We all want to go to KFC to find good food for a bargain. From there, we waited for a bus service . It took us a good twenty minutes to get to the nearest KFC restaurant. We liked it.

Today, I shall be sharing about the wonderful trip I took to visit London, the capital of England and the United Kingdom, with my three other friends. At first, we discussed ways and means to get there without having to pay much and researched to find cost-effective solutions. First of all, we tried to find the cheapest price to get to London and return without using any costly public transport, such as the train or a national express bus. We aimed to get the transportation cost as low as ten dollars per person round-trip, which seems quite implausible, but we were determined to do it. To achieve our aim of visiting London at an extremely low price, we decided to meet at my home and research the transport facilities available to visit the beautiful city. After that, we talked about how to plan the journey back to London. We were a group of four friends, and it felt like a perfect getaway after all the tedious coursework and long exams at the end of the first semester of my Master's program. After a lot of discussions, we finally made up our minds and decided to take the Megabus to Victoria Coach Station in London. It was amazing that we managed to find cheap tickets for as little as five dollars for a single ticket per person, and for a return ticket, it was four dollars per person. We were all happy and on the same page with this decision about going to London on a Megabus. The bus stop is not far from my home; it is approximately a fifteen-minute walk away. So it was very convenient to walk to the bus stop. After finalizing the means of transport, we discussed what types of activities and famous places we should go to. For example, we talked about which are the best museums we should visit and what attractions we could cover within our budget. My friends have never seen the iconic London Eye, the Millennium Wheel, which is a cantilevered observation wheel on the South Bank of the River Thames in London or other world-famous London areas. So, we took help from Google and asked for quick information on how to get the best service and facilities we can during our journey. After that, we identified the top five places to visit in London, which included the famous London Eye, some must-visit museums, and picturesque parks. To ensure that we had a fresh start, we decided to call it a night early. So we settled in and went to sleep because our itinerary started at 6 a.m. We estimated that we would get to London within the next two hours. The next day, we followed our itinerary.
After reaching London, we went straight to the nearest food chain where we could get some super-good-quality breakfast without breaking the bank. We headed to a local London cafe, where we had a morning coffee and some other tasty snacks. Soon after that, our plan was to visit Buckingham Palace. It is a royal residence in London and the administrative headquarters of the sovereign of the United Kingdom. The palace is located in the City of Westminster, and is often at the center of state events and royal hospitality. So, we went there on foot. It took about fifteen to thirty-five minutes of walking, with many stops along the way to take in the picturesque sights on the way to the palace. Once we reached there, we had a look at the famous palace. It looked exceptionally beautiful, and we all enjoyed observing it. We all took several photos at the Palace from various angles and shared them across our social media accounts like Facebook and Instagram so that our friends back home in Coventry could view them and share in our excitement. We took a long and slow walk around the palace and read every quote or text we could find that gave information about the importance of that amazing palace. After that, we walked to all the nearby local places, such as Big Ben, and took the opportunity to take a picture in front of it. Big Ben is the nickname for the Great Bell of the Great Clock of Westminster and is a famous tourist spot. You will find visitors from all over the world visiting the place throughout the year. We also took a picture in front of the iconic London Eye. We wanted to enter the popular attraction, but unluckily, we could not enter the London Eye because it was shut for a week due to restorations. It was disappointing, but we did not allow this setback to dampen our spirit, and it did not stop us from having fun. We took many pictures of the London Eye, and we all moved on since we had to visit other famous tourist spots. By this time, all of us had walked about five miles, and we were all feeling exhausted and hungry. So we decided to find some nice fast food and get it. We all went to a local London Chinese food place that specializes in noodles. The food was delicious, but it was overpriced. So, we liked the place but not the price. At the food joint, a single box of noodles costs eight dollars, and you have to pay an extra $2.50 for a drink.
We thought of making the best use of this visit. So we all discussed and decided to capitalize on an incredible offer. We each ordered a different type of noodle dish: my friend chose the vegetarian option, while another went for chicken and beer. I opted for a combination of chicken, pork, and beef and a refreshing Coca-Cola to go with it. We paid approximately twelve dollars each for the food. We were not happy with the cost, but we felt it was okay for the experience. It took us about forty minutes to finish the food because the portion size was huge. Two of my friends could not finish the food due to the extra-large portion size and the fact that the food was covered in oil and a little bit spicy. As a meat lover, I could not let the meat go to waste, so I offered to finish it for them. The only dish I did not touch was the vegetarian option, as I prefer meat. Despite the slightly steep prices, we enjoyed the experience and savored every bite. After finishing our meals, we continued with our itinerary.
We went past so many other incredible stops that had some great stuff to offer, and we also saw wonderful attractions such as some excellent museums. One of the museums that we went to is known as the British History Museum, which is a public museum dedicated to human history, art, and culture. It was massive in its size, and we were all impressed by the entrance. At the entry gate, there was a guy selling tasty cashew nuts, which we all bought since they only cost two dollars per pack. From there, we went inside the museum, which was beautifully designed. We were in awe of the stunning designs and the diverse range of collections from all over the world. We all liked it and went our separate ways to explore further. After splitting up with my friends, I went to the massive and unique Egyptian collection, while my friend explored the African collection, and another friend checked out the Asian collection. It took us a good three hours to meet up after the museum, but we all agreed that it was well worth it and enjoyed it greatly.
We were all tired by this time, so we all decided to take a break. After taking a break, we chose to catch a local movie at the nearest cinema to pass some time before we made any further plans about where to go next. We continued exploring London and visiting places that caught our interest so we could take good photos and share them with our family and friends, and then we kept moving. From there, we went to another theater or museum that was showing an amazing art collection. Initially, we were skeptical, but it turned out to be a great collection that we all enjoyed. However, we only spent about twenty minutes viewing it because some of the exhibits were quite boring for our taste. We did not like it much, and we moved on, walking to other parts of the street. As the day wore on, we realized that we were running out of time. So, we decided to grab a quick bite at KFC, as it was known for offering delicious food at affordable prices. We waited for the bus service to take us to the nearest KFC outlet, which took us around twenty minutes to reach there. Upon arriving, we ordered our meals and found the food to be satisfying and tasty. We liked it, and it was worth the effort.

Unlike STEM majors like nursing, which basically have a certain job entailed in the major’s description, English is one of the most flexible degrees one can possibly get. Some English majors do end up teaching English, either at a grade school, high school, or even at the university level. Yet many others find jobs in many different fields. English majors have become published authors, editors, librarians, and even CEOs of companies. The thing is, the English degree is not designed to land a student a specific job. A nursing degree prepares students to become nurses, but an English degree does not prepare students for becoming English teachers, or any other specific job. Rather, it focuses on honing skills in students that are transferable to many, many different arenas of life.

Unlike STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) majors like nursing, etc., which have a certain job entailed in the major’s description, English is one of the most flexible degrees one can possibly get. It provides students with a range of skill sets that can be applied to a wide range of careers. Some English majors do end up teaching English, either at a grade school, a high school, or even at the university level. Yet many others look for jobs in many different fields since the degree hones critical thinking, analytical, and communication skills, which can be transferable and applied to varied job opportunities. The degree is not restrictive at all. Also, many other English majors find perfect jobs in many different interesting, glamorous, and stellar fields. Many of them have become published authors, editors, librarians, and even CEOs (Chief Executive Officers) of multiple companies across the world. The thing is, an English degree is not designed or created to land a student a specific kind of job. It is indeed one of the most flexible degrees one can take to make a living. For example, a nursing degree prepares students to become nurses; they cannot be anything else, but an English degree does not prepare students to become English teachers only or do any other specific job. Rather, the degree focuses on honing skills in students that are transferable to many, many different arenas of life and helps them explore different job opportunities. These individuals can work in a variety of fields and be the best at them by utilizing their transferable skills.

One insight you many uncover after using an analytics tool is that users are visiting one page of your application or website, but not another. Why would that be? Is it difficult to navigate to the other page? Does the page take too long to load? Do users not see the value of the content offered there? These kinds of questions should be carefully considered by product owners and developers.

One example of a discovery you have a chance of being able to find following the use of an analytics tool is that the individuals using it are choosing to visit one page within the entirety of your application or website, but not any other. What could a reason for this possibly be? Is the page or website not easy in terms of navigation from one to another? Is the page’s attempt to load taking longer than preferred? Are the individuals using the page not able to gauge or appraise the value of the content offered on it? These are the kinds of questions and problem solving skills that are recommended to be carefully considered and analyzed by the owners and developers of whatever product is being sold.

Once you have a pool of volunteers, it is vital that you keep them happy. Volunteers are there out of the goodness of their hearts, not for money or recognition, but this doesn’t mean you should not show how much you value them. By sending monthly emails keeping volunteers updated on what is going on back in the office, the volunteers will feel like they are involved in the bigger decisions and, in turn, feel more valued.
|
After you have a pool of volunteers established, it is crucial to the project's success that you keep them happy. Volunteers are present solely out of the good of their hearts. They do not work for money or recognition and instead receive payment in the form of helping others. Simply because they are not financially or socially compensated does not mean you should not show how much you value your volunteers.
Value can be presented in a multitude of ways. If you send monthly emails to update volunteers about what is going on back in the office, the volunteers will feel like they are involved with the more critical decisions and, in turn, feel more valued. Another way to validate your volunteers is by establishing clear and attainable goals. By vocalizing when they meet these goals, they will feel intrinsically rewarded and more likely to continue aiding the project. As with anybody connected to a form of work, volunteers like to see that their efforts are a significant contribution.

Overall, I genuinely think that switching to electronic learning for our tutoring centre is the future. It will take some further planning and thought about investment, and precise details still need to be figured out. However, I think that it shows clear benefits, and whilst the short-term benefits may not be tangible, long-term benefits definitely outweigh the initial costs of making this switch from paper to electronic learning. Most importantly, in addition to benefiting our costs and efficiency, I genuinely believe that it will benefit the students and keep them engaged in this day and age where internet-based learning is already so prevalent in schools, and continuing to grow.

Overall, I genuinely think that switching to electronic learning for our tutoring centre is the future. The advances of technology in regards to learning can not be ignored. Now, it will take some further planning and thought about investment, and precise details still need to be figured out. However, I think that it shows clear benefits, and whilst the short-term benefits may not be tangible, long-term benefits definitely outweigh the initial costs of making this switch from paper to electronic learning. For example, simply consider the cost of supplies. If we are still using paper, will have to acquire paper and writing tools like pencils or pens. These will have to be purchased consistently. On the other hand, investing in technology will reduce cost over time. In addition, technology will allow us to remain alert to the latest changes in curriculum. Most importantly, in addition to benefiting our costs and efficiency, I genuinely believe that it will benefit the students and keep them engaged in this day and age where internet-based learning is already so prevalent in schools, and continuing to grow. After all, maintaining the attention of students is a vital part of the teaching process. Since students are already familiar with using technology, it will be a simple process to implement it in our teaching.

This document will be about running a small business from home. I run a small business from home, which sells handmade hair accessories and jewellery. It is a sole trader business, meaning that I am the only one that currently works for the business. I am currently looking to expand the business; hence I am looking for a partner to make this business a partnership, not just a sole tradership. This will inevitably help to expand the amount of products that we can produce in a certain amount of time. It will help with overall profits, as whilst I am making products (for example), the partner will be able to focus on other areas of the business, such as marketing. It means that we can expand the business and profits, which will help to fund the partner’s income. By expanding, my business is then creating jobs too, which pleases me because it will help the overall economy. In order for you to become a partner in the business, you have to know about the history and operation of the business. It is a small, personal business, and I aim to maintain the personal tone of the business as it continues its operation as a partnership.
|
The focal point of this document will be about remotely owning and operating a small business. I run a small business from my home that sells handmade hair accessories and jewelry. This pursuit enables my creativity to flourish as I unify it with my professional life. As a sole trader, I am the only one working for the company. However, I aspire to increase the business's output, so I am searching for a qualified candidate to establish a partnership. By doing so, we can produce more products in the same amount of time, resulting in business expansion. Some other advantages of having a partner include bringing in additional skills, knowledge, and expertise that I may not possess, which can help the business grow and expand.
A partner can share the workload and responsibilities, allowing each of us to focus on our strengths and interests. This can help improve efficiency and productivity and reduce stress and burnout. A partner can provide emotional support and motivation, especially during challenging times, which is natural for small businesses during their onset periods. Also, having a partner can help diversify the business and reduce the risk of failure, as each of us can bring different perspectives and ideas. Overall, having a business partner can be a valuable asset for a small business and help ensure its long-term success. Expanding the company through a partnership will increase our production capacity, allowing us to generate more profits. By working together, the partner can take charge of marketing while I can focus on making more products. Since the company focuses on handmade items, I am the only one who can create our inventory. This will ultimately result in business growth and increased profits, providing a steady income for both of us.
As the business owner, I place a high value on the personalized approach that the business has developed. I ensure that, even after bringing in a partner, the personal and unique touch of the company will remain unchanged. This personal touch refers to how we interact with customers, the level of customization and attention to detail in our products, and customers' overall experience when they interact with the business. Maintaining my touch will help the company stand out and attract customers who appreciate and value this personalized service. By aiming to preserve the personal tone of the business, I aim to ensure that its core values and mission remain intact even as it grows and expands. Despite transitioning to a partnership, I strive to maintain the business's personalized approach.

DNA quantification is set up on the liquid handling robot and read on a fluorometer. First make sure you have appropriate standards for the assay. These should be aliquoted out and placed in the fridge. We use the 0-100ng standards to ensure all sample concentration ranges are covered. Take out the standards and shake them on a plate shaker while allowing to come to room temperature. Whilst the standards are shaking, prepare the assay buffer. This is made up in a 1:200 ratio of dye to buffer. Add an extra couple of samples to your calculation for pipetting error. Make up this working buffer solution in a reservoir container. Next get your samples that you want to quantify ready. Make sure they are shaken on the plate shaker or vortexed. Quickly spin down using a centrifuge for thirty seconds. Once all the reagents and samples are ready, you can set up the robot. Once the software has loaded, you must initialise the system. This is found under the menu ‘instrument’ and then ‘home all axis’. The programs will not run without initialising the robot first. If this is not done an error message will come up when you press ‘start’. Once initialised, select the ‘run’ button from the top toolbar. This will bring up a prompt for you to enter how many columns you are doing. Input the number. Next it will ask you to scan in the barcode of the sample plate and quant plate. This information is needed for quality tracking and will be stored in the LIMS system. Next the software will bring up a prompt showing where to place the consumables on the deck. Follow this exactly, because any incorrectly placed consumables will result in a crash and potential loss of samples.

DNA quantification processes are set up on the liquid handling robot and the results are read on a fluorometer. The first thing you need to do to prepare for such an experiment is to make sure that you have the appropriate standards for the assay. These should then be carefully aliquoted out and placed inside of a refrigerator to cool. We will be using the 0-100ng standards to ensure that all of the sample concentration ranges are covered. After the standards have cooled for some time, you should take them out of the refrigerator and shake them on a plate shaker while allowing them to slowly come back to room temperature. Whilst the standards are shaking, you should begin preparing the assay buffer. This is made up in a 1:200 ratio of dye to buffer, though you should add an extra couple of samples to your calculation to account for possible pipetting errors. You should make up this working buffer solution in a reservoir container to prevent the possibility of cross-contamination or the influence of other unwanted variables from affecting the results of the experiment. After that, it will be time for you to prepare all of the samples that you want to quantify, which means that you will have to make sure they are shaken on the plate shaker or that they get vortexed.
After all of that has been accomplished, you should give the standards a quick spin down inside of a centrifuge for thirty seconds. Once all the reagents and samples have been prepared in this manner, you can begin setting up the robot for the experiment. This process must begin with uploading the necessary software. Once the software has been loaded, you will have to initialise the system. This program can be found by looking under the menu ‘instrument’ and then searching beneath the subheading ‘home all axis’. None of the robot’s programs will be capable of running unless you initialise the robot first. If the robot has not been initialised, an error message will come up when you press the ‘start’ button. Once the robot has been initialised, you should select the ‘run’ button from the toolbar at the top of the screen. This will in turn bring up a prompt asking for you to enter how many columns you plan on using in your experiment, and you should then input that number. Next it will ask you to scan in the barcode of the sample plate and quant plate. This information is needed for quality tracking purposes and it will be stored in the laboratory information management system (LIMS). After that the software will bring up a prompt showing you where to place the consumables on the deck. It is crucial that you follow these instructions as closely as possible. This is for the simple but critical reasons that any incorrectly placed consumables may result in a system crash which could in turn result in the potential loss of the samples. Such a failure is intolerable not only because it wastes valuable laboratory equipment and time, but also because it is extremely embarrassing. As always it will be very important for you to clean up after the results of the experiment have been dutifully logged. This process not only includes utilizing the proper cleaning techniques and disposal techniques for each of the different chemicals involved in the experiment (according to each of their appropriate safety guidelines), but also by following the proper cleaning processes and by replacing all equipment and instruments that were utilized during the process.

Of course with marketing, getting the message across is key. We work with Google Ads and social media, and use Buzzfeed-type articles, which work very well for us to create those viral articles that reach millions. It is all about shareability, teaching something new and creating those moments that people remember. With offices around the world, we are close to the tech boom in San Francisco and growing more in Los Angeles, with contacts at Google, Buzzfeed, Snapchat, and more. These are key resources for us and for you as well.

It’s extremely obvious that when talking about marketing, making sure the audience understands what you are trying to convey to them is one of the most important aspects to the job. We are able to work with Google Ads and social media sites such as instagram, tiktok, snapchat, and facebook. We also use Buzzfeed type pieces of text online, which are able to work very well for us when trying to fabricate those extremely well known articles that are able to connect with millions of browsers. A pillar of this process is about being sharable, educating people on a new topic as well as creating those small events that stick in people’s minds. With offices scattered all over the world, we are physically neighboring the tech boom that is currently happening in San Francisco and finding its feet in Los Angeles a little more as well, with people that we consider professional contacts at Google, Buzzfeed, Snapchat, and more. These are extremely important resources for our people and for your people as well.

When writing a paper, it is imperative to have a centralized focus, or thesis statement. Your thesis statement should be only a sentence or two. It should not be any longer than this. The goal of your thesis statement should be to present an argument and support the main point of your paper. The thesis statement should also be the last sentence of your introduction.
|
An excellent paper details or argues a topic or idea. Establishing the aim of the piece early is critical to its success. After the research is completed and it is time to write the paper, it is essential to present a centralized focus in the form of a thesis statement. The thesis should be given as only one to two sentences. If the idea you are wanting to convey requires additional sentences, then it is likely your idea is too complex and it needs to be rendered down.
A thesis's primary function is to present and support your paper's dominant focal point. Therefore, it aids in controlling the paper's ideas as they are later expounded. The thesis statement should be provided in the concluding portion of the introductory paragraph. A strong thesis is comprehensible and clearly outlines a path for the reader to follow.

Along with these two references, we also request that you create a style sheet. A style sheet is a list of words that are capitalized, hyphenated, or otherwise spelled differently. The style sheet can also include a basic list of general grammar or syntax decisions that you have chosen to implement in the manuscript. For instance, the style sheet might include a note about using serial commas, along with the correct spelling of Kunotambo (instead of Kuno Tambo). Please note that the style sheet should be alphabetized. If you need an example of a style sheet, please don't hesitate to contact the managing editor.

In addition to the two previously mentioned references, we also request that you make a style sheet. A style sheet depicts a list of words that are capitalized, hyphenated, or potentially spelled differently than they traditionally would be. It acts as a guide, ensuring that you maintain a consistent voice throughout the work. If the language is not uniform throughout the entirety of the work, the piece will suffer and potentially lose the confidence of the audience. Style sheets are a keen tool to use when endeavoring to deliver high-caliber work. The style sheet can also have a rudimentary catalog of general grammar or syntax choices that you have decided to implement into your manuscript. For example, the style sheet might feature a note about utilizing serial commas and also present the correct spelling of Kunotambo (instead of Kuno Tambo).
Another example will be if you have a preference to spell out dates rather than write them numerically (Today is February fourteenth instead of 02/14). Please be aware that the style sheet is required to be alphabetized. An organized style sheet improves productivity and, ultimately, the product itself. If you would like a template or example of a style sheet, please do not hesitate to reach out to the managing editor.

For this document, I am going to explain how to complete all of the daily tasks for my job as a digital producer for a publishing-related magazine and website. These instructions should allow someone to fill in for me, and do my job when I am out of the office. Twice weekly, it is my job to compile and publish a newsletter that is then sent to around 30,000 opt-in subscribers. “Opt in” means that all of our subscribers manually signed up for the newsletter through our website, and they are not being sent any content they didn’t subscribe to. One of the first things I do when I come in is to look through my email and Dropbox and see who has sent me articles and images. Each week, the newsletter contains some custom or new content, as well as content from the website and digitized versions of the print articles. Often the print articles need to be digitized by me. This is usually the easiest task to accomplish because the articles are already proofed and have already been published. So I don’t need to wait for anyone to respond to me or to get me assets. Each week, you can access the newsletter outline in our shared drive on the company network. It will tell you what articles are going into the newsletter, as well as which authors are being featured in the section which highlights book deals from that week. It also contains some information about the advertisements and various articles which will be linked on the side of the newsletter but not featured. These are typically older articles that were popular, or some recurring features like reviews of the week, and the bestseller lists. After you have gone through your email and Dropbox, and you have downloaded any content that you received from the editors, you should save all of the assets in individual folders inside the newsletter folder on the shared drive. It is important to never modify the original file in case we need it in the future. To that end, I find it is best to create a subfolder in each article folder called “originals”. This is where I store all the original files. Once articles have been approved, you can begin adding them to the newsletter template in the CMS. There are links to the CMS pages on your desktop. Once you get into the CMS you can create a new article by pushing the New Article button. Each article needs to have four headlines. The headlines are for web, print, newsletter, and subscription. They are usually all the same headline, but the article won’t publish correctly without all four filled in. It is also important to choose a category for the article. Since the newsletter is children’s-themed, you always want to choose the options under “children’s”. If it is an interview or profile, you should choose the option “Author”. If it is related to bookselling news you should choose that category. Bookselling news is anything like a trade fair, book fair, author convention, events and so forth. This category also includes anything that is related to a book deal. So this will include the book deals article. The “Books” category is pretty self-explanatory, this refers to any article of book round-ups, reviews, and the like. It’s usually pretty easy to tell if something is book news or author news, but if you feel confused you can ask someone. We also have the category “Common Core”. This comes up pretty rarely but is, as the name suggests, about the Common Core. After you choose the category, you can copy and paste the article into the article content box. Often, formatting doesn’t carry over properly so it is important to check and make sure all the italics and things copy over. It is also important to check any hyperlinks that might be in the story. Next, you need to create a blurb for the story. This is usually the first few sentences of the article, but sometimes if the article is less ‘newsy’ it is just a summary of the articles contents. For instance, you don’t want to lead off a profile with a quote as the blurb, even though a quote is often the first thing in the blurb. When formatting interviews, it is important to put the questions that the interviewer asks in bold/blue and the intro above the interview in italics. After that, you can save the article and hit “Preview.” Make sure everything looks good then go back into the article page on the CMS and add any photos. To add photos, scroll down and click “Add Media”. The photos shouldn’t be any wider than 600 pixels. The photo in the first position is always the photo that shows up on the preview. To actually make the images appear in the article, you add the tag [photo NAMEOFPHOTO width=”600”]. You can make the width smaller if you don’t want it to stretch the entire width of the article page. You can also add captions below the image. Again check the preview link. If it looks good, you can then go to the newsletter CMS page and add the article. You should also add a small preview image. We crop preview images in a 5x4 ratio for consistency. Once all of the articles have been proofread and added, and once they are in the template, you should check the newsletter preview. Make sure the blurbs make sense and that they haven’t been cut off. Make sure the images are clear and not pixelated, and that they are consistently sized. It is also crucial to make sure that none of the advertisements conflict with the stories. The marketing team will add the ads in (but make sure they work) yet it is important that we aren’t running an article about a new book that is being advertised in the issue. It looks like a conflict of interest. If there is an ad for something we have an article about, we can always just hold the article until next week. Once you have everything proofed, send the link to the children’s editor and she will check it out. If there any changes are needed, she will let you know. Once any final changes have been made, you can send the CMS link to the digital team and they will send it out. Always try to send out the newsletter by 5:00 PM EST.

I am creating these instructions so that, if I am away from the office or unavailable to complete these tasks for any reason, someone else can fill in for me. Twice a week, it is my job to compile and publish a newsletter that is then sent to around 30,000 opt-in subscribers. “Opt in” means that all of our subscribers manually signed up for the newsletter through our website, and they are not being sent any content they didn’t subscribe to. Therefore, you have provide a quality newsletter since people are actively subscribing to it. One of the first things I do when I come in is to look through my email and Dropbox so that I can see who has sent me articles and images. You do not have to search for the articles for yourself, because they will be provided. Each week, the newsletter contains some custom or new content, as well as content from the website and digitized versions of the print articles. Often the print articles need to be digitized by me. This is usually the easiest task to accomplish because the articles are already proof read and have already been published. So I don’t need to wait for anyone to respond to me or to get me assets. This makes the process more streamlined and allows you to work on your schedule without having to worry about someone else’s getting in the way. Each week, you can access the newsletter outline in our shared drive on the company network. It will tell you what articles are going into the newsletter, as well as which authors are being featured in the section which highlights book deals from that week. It also contains some information about the advertisements and various articles which will be linked on the side of the newsletter but not featured. These are typically older articles that were popular, or some recurring features like reviews of the week, and the bestseller lists. Everything you will need to create the newsletter is in those two places. After you have gone through your email and Dropbox, and you have downloaded any content that you received from the editors, you should save all of the assets in individual folders inside the newsletter folder on the shared drive. It is important to never modify the original file in case we need it in the future.
To that end, I find it is best to create a subfolder in each article folder called “originals”. This is where I store all the original files. Original files are important because if there is an error in the information or contains an a typo then we have the original to fix it. In addition, it allows us to return to this newsletter if it was a great success and see which articles a wroth preserving for later. Once articles have been approved, you can begin adding them to the newsletter template in the CMS. The template is there to provide you with the best formate for the newsletter. This way you do not have to concern yourself with creating a template each newsletter. There are links to the CMS pages on your desktop. Once you get into the CMS, you can create a new article by pushing the New Article button. Although that is pretty simple, each article needs to have four headlines. The headlines are for web, print, newsletter, and subscription. They are usually all the same headline, but the article won’t publish correctly without all four filled in. If it is not publishing, just go back and check to see if you have all the headlines filled. It is also important to choose a category for the article. Thankfully this is a pretty simple task. Since the newsletter is children’s-themed, you always want to choose the options under “children’s”. If it is an interview or profile, you should choose the option “Author”. If it is related to bookselling news you should choose that category. Bookselling news is anything like a trade fair, book fair, author convention, events and so forth. This category also includes anything that is related to a book deal. So this will include the book deals article. The “Books” category is pretty self-explanatory, this refers to any article of book round-ups, reviews, and the like. It’s usually pretty easy to tell if something is book news or author news, but if you feel confused you can ask someone. We also have the category “Common Core”. This comes up pretty rarely but is, as the name suggests, about the Common Core. I probably did too much explaining on a simple task, but it’s better to over explain than have left any confusion about what to do. But just be sure to select the appropriate category for the article.
After you choose the category, you can copy and paste the article into the article content box. Often, formatting doesn’t carry over properly so it is important to check and make sure all the italics and other aspects of the original copy over. Be sure that no meaning is changed during the process of copy and pasting, nor do you want a word that is missing a letter because of poor copying. It is also important to check any hyperlinks that might be in the story. Be sure to click on them in order to see if they will take you to the correct site. You don’t want someone unable to access or, even worse, go to the wrong website because something messed up when copy and pasting. Next, you need to create a blurb for the story. This is usually the first few sentences of the article, but sometimes if the article is less ‘newsy’ it is just a summary of the articles contents. For instance, you don’t want to lead off a profile with a quote as the blurb, even though a quote is often the first thing in the blurb. So, you will need to formulate a suitable blurb to the tone and style of the article, which sounds more difficult than it is. When formatting interviews, it is important to put the questions that the interviewer asks in bold/blue and the intro above the interview in italics. As you probably know, this is to make sure the answers are distinct from the interviewer’s questions. After that, you can save the article and hit “Preview,” which will allow you to look over the material to verify that everything is in order. Read over the article to make sure everything looks good before going back into the article page on the CMS and add any photos. To add photos, scroll down and click “Add Media”. The photos shouldn’t be any wider than 600 pixels otherwise you run the risk of having them exceed the article page and become pixilated. The photo in the first position is always the photo that shows up on the preview. Now, the photos won’t be visible just because you have added them. To actually make the images appear in the article, you add the tag [photo NAMEOFPHOTO width=”600”]. You can make the width smaller if you don’t want it to stretch the entire width of the article page. In fact, it is probably better if you don’t stretch it across the width of the article page because it may affect the quality of the photo or look too bulky. It depends on the photo. You can also add captions below the image. This is just a simple calcification, such as stating the date this phot was taken or naming the people in the photo. This is just simple little tasks that offers clarity for the reader that might not be able to derive full context just from the photo alone.
Again check the preview link. If it looks good, you can then go to the newsletter CMS page and add the articles. You should also add a small preview image. We crop preview images in a 5x4 ratio for consistency. Once all of the articles have been proofread and added, and once they are in the template, you should check the newsletter preview. Make sure the blurbs make sense and that they haven’t been cut off. And do not forget to double check to make sure the blurb is appropriate for the article. Make sure the images are clear and not pixelated, and that they are consistently sized. It is also crucial to make sure that none of the advertisements conflict with the stories. The marketing team will add the ads in (but make sure they work) yet it is important that we aren’t running an article about a new book that is being advertised in the issue. It looks like a conflict of interest. If there is an ad for something we have an article about, we can always just hold the article until next week. It is easier to hold an article back another week than to have send an email to advertisement concerning the conflict. This will most likely result in delays and cause the advertisement to put in more work coming up with a replacement advertisement. Once you have everything proof read, send the link to the children’s editor and she will check it out. If there any changes are needed, she will let you know. If she does find anything that needs to be changed, get those done as soon as possible. You should not have to resend the changes back to the editor, because you shouldn’t have made new errors with changes. Therefore, once any final changes have been made, you can send the CMS link to the digital team and they will send it out. Always try to send out the newsletter by 5:00 PM EST. If you don’t send out the newsletter at that time, it may become problematic cause the digital team won’t like having to go past time to check over the newsletter. This is pretty much the basics for getting the newsletter prepared and disturbed to our opt-in subscribers.

Today we are going to talk about the music industry. Over the years, the music industry has changed drastically. Going from record and CD stores to everything being completely digital has opened up new doors to many different opportunities, but also shut doors for many companies. In the early 2000s, there were CD stores, record stores, and video stores littering every strip and plaza across the US. Slowly, those stores began to diminish due to digital stores and sites such as Limewire, iTunes, Pandora, Spotify, and now YouTube Music. To say that the digital age has had an effect on this would be an understatement. Children who were born in the late ‘90s and early 2000s spearheaded this digital advancement. Not only were music stores affected, but video stores were affected as well. How long has it been since we’ve even heard about Blockbuster? Netflix has also gone completely digital now. In the past, they used to send out DVDs monthly to their subscribers. This all has to do with ease of access. Not only as Americans, but as humans, we like to find an easy way out of situations and we love when things are available right then and there at our fingertips. It allows us to save our time and spend it on something more important. Being able to unlock your mobile device and/or sign onto your laptop and have the world literally at your fingertips allows for less time to be spent getting in your car and driving to the store to purchase what you were looking for. This, however, was very bad for physical stores. A huge financial decline ensued, as more and more people began to convert to the digital stores. Imagine this: You spend so much money on renting or leasing a business, then to acquire the product, and also to publicize your business for several years, just for some digital store to take all of your customers. Something that you’ve worked on for a very long time has been uprooted by a program that was just created in the span of a year. Financially, you’re struggling, so you have to eventually close down your shop and find something else to bring in the big bucks. Although there are still a few physical shops out there, they are mainly for older generations who still own the devices to play back the material. Most youth from this generation wouldn’t even know how a Walkman worked, even if the instructions were right next to them. At the rate that physical stores were going out of style, so were the playback devices. From Walkmans to CD players, MP3 players, and handheld radio devices, they are rarely seen today. You can now access the material you want to listen to or watch and the playback device within one console: a laptop, tablet, iPad, or other mobile device. This saves us, the consumers, money as well. Instead of having to spend money on the material and the device, we make a one-time payment on the device and several small payments on the material. Unfortunately, this has made us lazier. Movie nights, binge watching, and TV series have allowed for us to be more stagnant in the work that we do everyday if we let them. We have to motivate ourselves to get physical throughout the day when everything is, again, at our fingertips. Most physical store owners were not left behind. After realizing that those stores were no longer a necessity, they began investing in their own competition. This allowed them to reap the benefits of what the competitor is making and receiving.

Today, we are going to talk about the music and movie industries. Over the years, the shopping experience has changed drastically. With music, records and CD stores were all the rage. Customers could go in and browse all the available options and purchase the latest and greatest. Now, everything has become entirely digital. With this technological boom, certain companies have been able to thrive, and they have been able to maximize different opportunities. But unfortunately, not every company can say the same; the digital era has shut doors for many.
In the early 2000s, there were CD stores, record stores, and video stores littering every strip and plaza across the US. The demand for these stores was high as physically purchasing music was one of the only options to consume music. Slowly, one by one, those stores began to diminish. Because of digital stores and sites, these physical stores could not stay afloat. Some of the more popular digital stores and sites include Limewire, iTunes, Pandora, Spotify, and YouTube Music.
To say that the digital age has affected music and people would be an understatement. Children born in the late '90s and early 2000s spearheaded this digital advancement. The effects were so massive that some children have never been to a CD or record store as they no longer existed. Unfortunately, music stores were not the only form of media affected. Video stores were also affected. Like the music industry, certain video companies have been able to thrive as they have been able to maximize different opportunities. But unfortunately, only some companies can say the same; How long has it been since we've heard about Blockbuster? Blockbuster was a video store superstar back in the day. Not only did they rent videos, but they also rented video games. By 1994, nine years after the first Blockbuster store opened, Blockbuster became a multibillion-dollar company. At its peak in 2004, Blockbuster had more than 9,000 stores worldwide. However, by 2007, Blockbuster started to fall. The store needed help keeping up with digital competitors like Netflix and cable. The digital phenomenon eliminated the need for consumers to go to a separate store for their movies. So as Blockbuster failed in this digital boom, Netflix rose to the occasion.
Netflix originally started as a blend of physical and digital. Users could subscribe to Netflix's platform and browse a vast selection of movies digitally. Since Netflix was a digital platform, it had more movie options than physical stores, as Netflix did not have the same physical movie storage constraints. Netflix would then send physical copies of movies and shows to the customers, and the customers could return the movies/shows by mail. Through this business model, the customer never had to leave the seat of their couch. But like most successful companies now, Netflix has also gone entirely digital. Digital has to do with ease of access. As Americans, and simply just humans, we like to find an easy way out of situations. We love when things are available right then and there at our fingertips for immediate gratification. It allows us to save time and spend it on something more substantial. Technology has made us all more impatient today than five years ago. Now as consumers, it is ingrained in us that we have a right to avoid discomfort, such as waiting in long lines and dealing with rude staff. Being able to unlock any device, cell phone, laptop, Alexa, or Google to do shopping has given us more time and more opportunities to avoid discomfort. All of this isn't good for physical stores.
For physical stores, a substantial financial decline ensued as more and more people began to convert to digital stores. Imagine this scenario: You spend so much money on renting or leasing a business, possibly your whole life savings! Then you need to research a product, speak to different merchants, and finally acquire the product. Once you've done all that, you must publicize your business. Posting advertisements in the newspaper and taking out money to get a billboard. In addition, you have to put on a smile every day to deal with customers and staff. After all this hard work for several years, sales dwindle, and eventually, you can't afford to make rent, let alone any additional money to pay your staff or yourself. You're forced to close the shop. Something you've worked hard on for a long time has been uprooted and destroyed by a digital business created in just a year. Not only have you invested money, but you also have invested your time and livelihood just for some digital store to take all your customers. Like many other physical store owners, you must abandon your dream. Although there are still a few physical shops, they are mainly niche shops that survive for the older generations who still own the devices to play back the material.
Most youths from this generation would need help to identify playback devices correctly. They would only know how a Walkman worked if the instructions were beside them. At the rate that physical stores were going out of style, so were the playback devices. These devices are rarely seen today, from Walkmans to CD players, MP3 players, and handheld radio devices. Once popular and desired, these devices collect dust in the back of the closet or a thrift store. Since movies and music can now be accessed digitally within one console, most people do not feel the need to purchase a separate singular-use playback device. Laptops, tablets, iPad, or other smart mobile devices can all play material, making them multi-use devices. Financially, this saves the consumer money. Instead of spending money on individual movies and songs and the playback device, we can make a one-time payment for a device and several small settlements on the material. Many streaming services have become popular as they allow one flat fee to watch unlimited movies or listen to any song. Many platforms, such as Youtube and Spotify, offer free content as long as you can sit through commercials. Unfortunately, this has also made us lazier. As it is so easy to consume media, binge-watching has become the norm. Technology has permitted us to be more stagnant in our everyday life; this sometimes seeps into our work if we let it. Americans tend to prioritize immediate rewards and ignore future costs. Some scientists have attributed this to be wired in by evolution. While this technological boom has benefits, Americans are now spoiled child that wants everything -- quick profits, the latest entertainment devices, and the newest smartphone model. We must motivate ourselves to stay active throughout the day when everything is at our fingertips, and we can easily choose to be lazy.
In the end, it is not all bad. Most physical store owners were not abandoned and left to suffer. After realizing their physical stores were no longer necessary, they began investing in their competition. Although they have lost a lot, at least investing allowed them to reap the benefits of what the competitor was making and receiving. In a positive light, there has been a recent surge in social media in favor of supporting small businesses. Thriving small businesses have learned from the demise of physical stores and have been able to adapt to changes in the market. According to local surveys, optimism among small business owners is the highest in eight years.

English as a second language is more important now more than ever before, because we have outsourced so many jobs, and because there are so many jobs that we need people from other countries to do. As a teacher, you might not know it, but it is possible that you could be teaching someone English who could end up being a doctor an engineer, or someone who pioneers technology for the future.

English as a second language is more important now more than ever before, because we have outsourced so many jobs, and because there are so many jobs that we need people from other countries to do Therefore, since a majority of these outsourced jobs originate in English speaking countries, it is beneficial that they have an understanding of the English language. This will, obviously, reduce the amount of errors that can originate from misunderstandings with regards to communicating in a different language. An error could arise in a translation or not fully understanding a particular word that is common in the business lexicon of English speaking nations. Therefore, it is vital there are good teachers that help teach English. It is a rewarding and fulling career that will help business and technology advance. As a teacher, you might not know it, but it is possible that you could be teaching someone English who could end up being a doctor, an engineer, or someone who pioneers technology for the future.

Today I am going to be talking about how to effectively manage a call center. It is a topic I am very familiar with, and I have a lot of information to share. The first thing that any person looking to manage a call center will need is a lot of patience. Between staff issues, technical problems and customer complaints, there are many points of running a call center that can be stressful. As a manager, you need to be able to keep calm under pressure and also help others cope with any pressures. Staff members will look to you for reassurance and guidance, so you need to always be prepared to help. You also need to have some prior knowledge regarding the equipment you are using, because if something goes wrong, you will need to resolve the issue as quickly as possible. Every minute the phones aren’t answered is costing the company money, and possibly causing a customer complaint. You will also need to be an understanding and empathetic person as your staff members will often come to you for help and advice, and you need to be able to help them effectively. As a manager, you will also be required to handle escalated customer complaints and defuse possible tensions. This is where the patience and empathy will come in handy. Customers can often be demanding and impatien. You, as the manager, will need to make the time to listen to their issue and offer an appropriate solution. You will also need to have the ability to not take things personally. Sometimes, customers will vent their frustrations on the first person they see or speak to. As the first point of call for the company, you need to be able to conduct yourself in a professional manner to staff and customers. You need to be able to leave your problems and stresses at home and go to work with a positive attitude. Customers will be able to tell if you are not in a good mood, and they will not appreciate it if you take your feelings out on them. One of the most crucial points is attention to detail. Regardless of the type of company you work for, or what you are selling or offering, attention to detail is imperative. Mistakes cost the company money and that’s not good. Let’s be real, mistakes do happen. Nobody is perfect, but you when you make a mistake, you need to notice it promptly and address the issue. Any issues that may seem small to you may be a big issue to the company or to the customer, so pay close attention. I would advise double-checking all work completed just to avoid any mistakes, even if it takes longer the first time. You are saving time by not having to go back and correct any mistakes. The customer and the company will thank you for your attention to detail. If you are looking to become a call center manager, you will need to be passionate about what you are offering as a business, whether it be stationery or apples. Passion is fundamental. Your passion will reflect in everything you do, and it will rub off on others around you. Having passion in your job is the key to happiness. Not every day will be a great day, but as long as you try, that’s all anyone can do. Solving customer issues can also be rewarding. Customers will go out of their way to thank you for helping them and so will your team! Many people think working in a call center is just picking up a phone, but it is so much more than that. You are the face of the company. You are the person the customer interacts with. You are the person selling the products. Without you, there would be no “us”. I have worked as a call center manager for many years now, and I find it a rewarding role. It’s not without its challenges, but that’s what makes every day different and interesting. You will need to change things up to keep things fresh, otherwise you will lose interest and passion — and by that point maybe even your job. Switch things up by answering with a different greeting, changing around your script (if you use one). Offer different products that you might not have offered before. Just do something different from yesterday and you’ll notice a big difference not only in your mood but also your attention span. Doing the same tasks every day might seem boring, but it’s all about PMA — Positive Mental Attitude. If you tell yourself that you’re unhappy, then you’re unhappy. If you answer the phone with a smile and tell yourself you’re in a good mood, the customer will notice, and it may even help their own mood or attitude! We have all said to ourselves at one point or another “I can’t be bothered”. But we tell ourselves we can’t be bothered, no one else has told us to feel this way. It all comes down to how you want to feel, and if you want to feel in a better mood you truly can do that and it makes all the difference, not just for you and your mental health, but also for your fellow staff members and for your customers. So, as we conclude this task, I just want to say that I hope these tips are useful, and I hope that anyone else working in the same industry can relate to this. Trying to write 1000 words on a topic is daunting to say the least! But once I started, I was really on a roll. It actually made me think of the times that I’ve felt stuck in life, or at a dead end. Just pick yourself up and at least try to start a new day, week or hour. My time has run over, but at least I got to the word count. Thank you for having me on this test. I look forward to the next one.

Today, I will discuss effective call center management, a topic I am well-versed in and eager to share my knowledge. An essential quality required for a call center manager is an abundance of patience. Managing a call center can be arduous, with numerous stressors. One of the most significant stressors is dealing with difficult or angry customers who may be upset with the company, its products or services, or something else entirely. It would be best if you were skilled at handling these situations professionally and calmly, which can be stressful in and of itself. Another potential stressor is high call volumes, particularly during busy times of the day or year. Your employees may feel overwhelmed by the number of calls they must take and need more time to address each customer's concerns adequately. This can lead to pressure and stress, mainly if some strict targets or goals need to be met. Other potential stressors include lacking support or training, feeling undervalued or underpaid, dealing with technical issues or equipment failures, and working long or irregular hours.
Additionally, call center work can be repetitive, contributing to boredom or a lack of motivation over time. As the manager, it is imperative to remain composed and support staff members. The team will look up to you for guidance and assurance, making it necessary to be prepared for any challenges.
Moreover, having prior knowledge of the equipment used in the call center is essential, as any malfunction can lead to delayed response times and customer complaints, ultimately costing the company money. Being empathetic and understanding is also crucial, as staff members will seek your advice and assistance. Empathy is the ability to understand and share the feelings of another person. It involves putting yourself in someone else's shoes and seeing things from their perspective without judgment or bias. It is a fundamental component of emotional intelligence and helps people connect with others on a deeper level. Empathy allows individuals to respond appropriately to the needs and emotions of others, which can lead to more positive and meaningful relationships.
As the manager, you are also responsible for handling escalated customer complaints and resolving potential conflicts. Demonstrating patience and empathy can assist in handling demanding and impatient customers, who can become belligerent at times. As the manager, you must listen to their issues attentively and provide appropriate solutions without taking things personally.
Customers may direct their frustrations toward the first person they encounter or speak to. Therefore, as the initial point of contact for the company, it is essential to behave professionally towards staff and customers. It is important to leave personal issues and stress at home and arrive at work with a positive attitude. To avoid bringing emotional stress into position, taking care of yourself outside of work is essential. This means ensuring you get enough sleep, exercise regularly, and engage in activities that help you relax and unwind. It is also helpful to set boundaries between work and personal life, such as turning off work-related notifications outside of work hours and not checking emails or taking work calls during your time. When you arrive at work, take a few minutes to prepare yourself mentally before you start your shift. This can involve taking deep breaths, listening to calming music, or practicing mindfulness. Prioritizing your workload and breaking down larger tasks into smaller, manageable ones is essential to avoid feeling overwhelmed. If you experience personal stress during work hours, it is critical to address it rather than ignore or suppress it. This can involve taking a short break to practice a stress-reduction technique, such as meditation or stretching, or talking to a trusted colleague or supervisor about what's on your mind. It is also important to remember that it is okay to ask for help, whether from a mental health professional or a supportive friend or family member.
It is important to practice self-compassion and not beat yourself up if you experience personal stress at work. Everyone sometimes experiences stress, which is a normal part of life. By taking care of yourself outside of work, setting boundaries, and practicing stress-reduction techniques, you can minimize the impact of personal stress on your work life and maintain a healthy work-life balance.
Customers can sense when an employee is not in a good mood, which may result in negative feedback. Customers can tell you are in a bad mood over the phone by the tone of your voice, the words you use, and your overall demeanor. When you are in a bad mood, your agent may sound monotonous or flat, lacking enthusiasm or warmth. You may also use negative words or phrases, such as "unfortunately" or "I cannot do that," which can convey a negative tone. Additionally, if you are not fully engaged in the conversation and seem distracted or uninterested, the customer may perceive you are not in a positive mood. Ultimately, your attitude and demeanor can significantly impact the customer's experience, so you must be mindful of how you come across over the phone.
Paying attention to details is critical, regardless of the business type or product. Attention to detail is essential in business for several reasons. It helps ensure that products and services are high quality and meet customer expectations. Mistakes and errors can lead to customer dissatisfaction, negative reviews, and lost business. Attention to detail can help prevent costly mistakes from impacting a company's bottom line. This can include things that could be improved in accounting, shipping, and other business areas. Finally, attention to detail is vital for maintaining a professional image and reputation. Customers and business partners often view companies known for their attention to detail as more trustworthy and reliable. Attention to detail is a critical component of a successful business strategy. Mistakes can be costly, so prompt detection and resolution are essential. Minor issues may significantly impact the company or the customer, so attention is necessary. Even if it takes longer, double-checking work is advisable to prevent errors and save time in the long run. Both the customer and the company will appreciate the attention to detail. To be a successful call center manager, one must have a passion for the product or service, whether stationery or apples.
Having a strong passion for your work is crucial. Your enthusiasm will be evident in everything you do and inspire those around you. Having a passion for your job is the key to achieving happiness. While not every day will be perfect, as long as you put in the effort, that is all that matters. Helping customers with their issues can also be a rewarding experience. Customers will go out of their way to thank you for assisting them, and so will your team. Some people may think that working in a call center is just about answering the phone, but it involves much more than that. As the face of th

At the end of the night there are the closers. These are people who clean and put everything away before locking the doors for the night. The closer in hospo makes sure that the stock is good, moves all of the table toppers off the tables, sprays them down with a peroxide, lets it sit, vacuums the carpet, sweeps and mops the tile, wipes down the tables, and cleans the bathrooms and the soda fountain. Custard cleans the custard and shake machine, the blenders, the soda fountain, and cling-wraps all of the custard toppings. Dish does all of the dishes. Kitchen cleans the kitchen and makes sure all of the condiments and hamburger patties are cling-wrapped and properly refrigerated. At the end of the night, the manager on duty locks the doors, turns on the alarm, and all of the closers leave.

At the end of a long day, the closers at a restaurant are responsible for ensuring that the establishment is in good condition before locking up for the night. This job involves cleaning and restocking, ensuring the safety and security of the premises, and completing various other closing duties.
One of the main tasks of the hospo closer is to clean and disinfect all tables using peroxide solution. As a cleaning agent for restaurant tables, hydrogen peroxide is an excellent choice due to its ability to eliminate various microorganisms, including bacteria, yeasts, fungi, viruses, and spores. They also vacuum the carpets, sweep and mop the tiles, and clean the restrooms and soda machines. Proper vacuuming is essential as it ensures customers experience a clean and visually appealing dining atmosphere the following day.
Custard, a team member responsible for desserts and beverages, must clean the blenders, soda fountain, custard, and shake machines and remove cling wrap from each custard topping. In addition, Dish is responsible for washing all dishes, glasses, and silverware, and the kitchen staff is responsible for cleaning the kitchen and refrigerating all condiments and hamburger patties.
The on-duty manager ensures that all closing tasks are completed before the night ends. This includes clearing and cleaning tables, washing and sanitizing dishes, restocking supplies, balancing the cash register, recording transactions, and taking out the trash. They also make sure that all equipment, including stoves, grills, and fryers, is turned off and all lights are switched off.
It is essential to ensure that all tasks are completed, as failing to do so can create safety issues and add responsibilities to the incoming morning crew. The on-duty manager locks the entrances and engages the security system after ensuring everything is in order, and all the closers depart for the night.
