Is knowledge management a fad? Essay
Abstract  Knowledge management is a broad term that includes tools and theories from various fields. T.D. Wilson had been impeaching the need for knowledge management and he had come to the conclusion that knowledge management is just a fad started by consultancy companies and IT/ICT departments. This paper examines the righteousness of this proclamation and provides explanations and specifications of some conclusions that had T.D. Wilson provided in his work ââ¬Å"The nonsense of ââ¬Ëknowledge managementââ¬â¢Ã¢â¬ .  Is knowledge management a fad?  1 The need of KM in information society  With the instantaneous global information sharing is arising the need of knowledge management. This is based on the evolution and transformation of society. Every year the amount of the whole human knowledge is doubled. The role of information in current organization has transferred from peripheral and incidental to central and fundamental. Management is no longer supervising their employees, but instead is prioritizing feedback from the employees and therefore the function of the manager has shifted from pure decision making to information processing (Brunet-Thorton, 2010).  Information society is characterized by the interconnection of information sources, the ease of transferring categorizing and saving information with the help of applied use of data digitalization. In the definition of information society has the large importance the fact that inner telecommunication structures are more and more dependent on outer telecommunication systems. An example of this interconnectedness can be the internet, which is for our society nearly indispensable. And therefore is enabling the impressive growth of communicational and informational business organizations. With the beginning of the 21st century we can observe strong globalization tendencies ââ¬â huge networks if users, which are able to communicate and share information without the presence of third persons.  This way the volume and amount of knowledge information and data is astonishingly expanding. The communication infrastructure is slowly becoming the infrastructure used for knowledge sharing. The information society is indirectly enabling smaller companies and businesses to get involved in global trade market. For accomplishing their business objectives, these companies can get advantage in using new paths for trading such as on time production and delivery, online publishing, teleworking and network based virtual teams. The rapid evolution of information-globalized market is supporting the transformation to perfect market ââ¬â from the economical perspective. New businesses opportunities are emerging form these technology shortcuts.  Specific examples from the present can be Google or Facebook, which have so far used the information globalization most prospectively. Information society can bring new paths to advance the economy and contribute to increasing the number of highly skilled jobs, but at the expense of reducing the number of working positions with lower or no qualifications. A key factor is the role of education and retraining of unskilled workers, especially in government and public administration.  This is closely related to other difficulties emerging from information society ââ¬â safety and protection of information. You will need to modify the legislation together with the development and emergence of new information technologies. The fight against cyber-crimes, data protection, information privacy, i.e., to prevent fraud with the certification authorities and prevent the spread of malicious code should be a top priority in the developing information society.  2 Data, Information, Knowledge  We can define data as a ââ¬Å"crude facts relating to things and events that have not been processed or organisedâ⬠ (Thorton, 2010). An example can be database filled with numbers. Without knowing the context ââ¬â what the abbreviations describing each column mean we cannot get any information from these data. Another example can be a text in a foreign language. Without knowing this language we are not able to transform data (characters) into any information (meaning of whole words and sentences) and consequently we are not able to obtain any knowledge from this text. Data become information, when they havebeen manipulated permitting its meaning to be understood. (Thorton, 2010) One of the tons of definitions of knowledge is: ââ¬Å"Knowledge is directly related to understanding and is gained through the interpretation of information. Knowledge enables us to interpret information i.e. derive meaning from data.  The interpretation of meaning is framed by the perceiverââ¬â¢s knowledge.ââ¬Å" (Mark Sharratt & Abel Usoro, 2003, p.188). The definition of knowledge management becomes more interesting then definition of knowledge, because of the various views on this term as Wilson points out (Wilson, 2002, What is ââ¬Ëknowledge managementââ¬â¢?, para. 1). Despite the recent lack of agreement on what is meant by knowledge management, the definitions of knowledge management aim at three core components of knowledge management: knowledge/information repositories, communities and networks and experts and knowers. (Chatti & Jarke & Frosch-Wilke, 2007, page 406)  3 Tacit explicit and implicit knowledge  Wilson has also raised the question about explicit knowledge. He is literally asking the reader ââ¬Å"Does it make any difference to the argument if, in the diagram, we replace ââ¬Å"tacit knowledgeâ⬠ with ââ¬Å"knowledgeâ⬠ and ââ¬Å"explicit knowledgeâ⬠ with ââ¬Å"informationâ⬠?â⬠ He is not answering his question, so it may seem unanswered, but while reading the whole paragraph, which is quite critical to the established distinction between explicit knowledge and information, I stopped looking for the answer, because it quite evident that this question is just rhetorical.  Other authors are fairly more specific about the term of explicit knowledge. One of the views is offering Stenmark: The fact that routines, procedures, rules, manuals, books, blueprints, and all the other examples given above are useful does not make it knowledge. They all need knowledge to be decoded and are therefore not knowledge but information, albeit interwoven with the knowledge required to create it. Knowledge, which remains tacit, is also needed to interpret the information. Although some argue that ââ¬Å"knowledgeâ⬠ may be embedded in a text (e.g., a balance sheet where columns and totals have predefined meanings), the reader cannot appreciate it without bringing the required personal knowledge (2002, page 6). As a conclusion I think a can say that the term explicit knowledge can be used synonymously with information.  4 Knowledge in VSE courses  In order to show the importance and purport of knowledge management I am presenting here the syllabuses of few courses from The University of Economics, Prague that engaged with knowledge.  4IZ210 ââ¬â Information and Knowledge Processing  Aims of the course: To familiarize students with basic methods for both information storage and retrieval, as well as for acquisition and processing of formalized knowledge. Furthermore, the aim is to highlight the interrelationship of these areas and outline anticipated developments. Learning outcomes and competences:  Find and process information about companies and present the processed information, especially for analysis of the competitive environment. The emphasis is put on working with electronic information resources. Apply the selected method for knowledge discovery in databases on a given data and publish acquired knowledge to an expert. The emphasis is put on working with association rules. Understand the basic methods selected for processing information and knowledge within presented subjects. Course contents: The method for storing and retrieving information, methods of obtaining and processing of formalized knowledge, solving practical problems. (4IZ210 syllabus, n.d.) This course is dealing with all free levels of intelligence produced by humans: data information and knowledge. Student should be able to distinguish between these three easily and they should also be capable of transforming one to another. 3MA661 ââ¬â Management of Knowledge Workers  Aims of the course:Introduce students to modern tools and methods of management convenient for management of knowledge workers. Demonstrate those tools and methods in real life corporate situations. Learning outcomes and competences: distinguish between tacit and explicit dimension of knowledge, use basic tools for work with explicit and tacit knowledge, identify knowledge workers in organization and classify them to groups in relation to their importance for organization and style of work, manage and develop knowledge workers in relation to their personality type, manage personal development of knowledge workers, initiate and manage process of knowledge sharing among knowledge workers, create visions and get the support of knowledge workers for them.  Aims of the course:Explain importance of knowledge for business and management. Present key concepts and processes of knowledge management and demonstrate them on case studies. Explain the term tacit knowledge and teach students to work with it. (3MA661 syllabus, n.d.) This syllabus is quite unspecific about specifying knowledge management tools used for managing knowledge workers. It seems, just from the text of this syllabus that this course is overlapping with majority of the topics with the Knowledge management course. 4SA320  Information Management Basics  Aims of the course: Course offers basic theoretical background as well as practical application of information management. It presents information management as multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary science, which integrates knowledge in three areas ââ¬â modern management, system approach and informatics. The content of the course accents global overview of the information society, its development and presents main topics of managerial work in conditions of actual information society. Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to know the legal frame of information society in conditions of the CR, work with components of Integrated Management System, actively know how to use basics of knowledge management in the area of enterprise informatics. (4SA320 syllabus, n.d.) I absolved this course last year.  From the syllabus it seems that student will have to do lots of with knowledge. So thought I, and although I wasnââ¬â¢t really able to tell much difference between information and knowledge, my expectations were aimed on knowledge ââ¬â from my todayââ¬â¢s point of view. But this course is purely focused on Information management. It peeks more into technological and legal fields than in management of knowledge itself.  And as the last I would like to present not a course of The University of Economics, Prague but a studentââ¬â¢s site called vseborec.cz. Itââ¬â¢s not primarily a knowledge management tool, but rather an information sharing site. But from simple sharing site for studentââ¬â¢s notes to lectures it has developed to a ââ¬Ëdatabase of student knowledgeââ¬â¢. Itââ¬â¢s quite interesting that has expanded to todayââ¬â¢s proportions thanks to the sharing and unselfish naturel of students on a school which aim is to teach its student to compete and not to share. You can find out what will be the professor and his lectures like even before enlisting in the course.  5 Web searches analyse  To support or refuse the formulation of Wilson that knowledge management is just a fad (2001, ââ¬Å"Conclusionâ⬠, pa. 1) I made an analyse of web searches on Google in the period of the last six years. If the term ââ¬Ëknowledge managementââ¬â¢ is in the business world used just as a synonym for the term ââ¬Ëinformation managementââ¬â¢ the total amount of searches for the termââ¬â¢ knowledge managementââ¬â¢ should be increasing to the prejudice of the term ââ¬Ëinformation managementââ¬â¢. The absolute amount of web searches for both, the information and knowledge management, has been obviously decreasing in the period of the years 2004 and 2007.  The drop of searches is simultaneous for both of the terms, therefore we cannot say that knowledge management is replacing information management, at least in the sphere of web searching. Among the most popular places around the world for searching the term knowledge management in the period of last 12 months is leading South Africa followed by Kenya Malaysia and India. But in the year 2004 in the top ten places for web searching ââ¬ËKnowledge managementââ¬â¢ we can find countries such as United Kingdom, Italy and Australia. The shift of popularity from western countries to African and Asian areas is evident. (Google Insights, 2010) Graph 1 Web search worldwide (Google Insights, 2010)  This is the conclusion that has T.D. Wilson come up with: ââ¬Å"The inescapable conclusion of this analysis of the ââ¬Ëknowledge managementââ¬â¢ idea is that it is, in large part, a management fad, promulgated mainly by certain consultancy companies, and the probability is that it will fade away like previous fads.â⬠(Wilson, 2002, ââ¬Å"Conclusionâ⬠, para. 1). And according to my web searches analysis it really looks like that knowledge management is just a fad.  The interest in knowledge management has been decreasing for the last six years. But I think that this is only due to the acceptance of knowledge management as such in western cultures and the simultaneous inception of knowledge management awareness not just in business world but also at universities and in a public sector. And due to this conclusion I presume that the growth of interest in knowledge management in South Africa, Kenya, India, Malaysia and other south Asian and African countries is because of the lack of general awareness about knowledge management and not because of the late arrival of ââ¬Å"fashionable knowledge managementâ⬠ to less developed countries.  6 Reasons of knowledge management popularity rocketing  Wilson presented in his paper five arguments, why he thinks that knowledge management has been experiencing such a boom in the past decade. Here are they: First, and largely because of a fixation on internal organizational data, the term ââ¬Ëinformationââ¬â¢ has become almost synonymous with data in the minds of organizational heads. For example, Iââ¬â¢ve been told that the National Electronic Library for Health uses the term ââ¬ËKnowledgeââ¬â¢ because in the NHS information=data and a different term was needed. We have to lay this, I think, at the feet of the information systems profession whose focus for years was data and data definitions, etc. In fact, they dealt not with information systems but with data systems. (Wilson, 2001, pa. 2)  This is, of course, misinterpretation of data and information. If is somebody using this terms incorrectly in one organization, that doesnââ¬â¢t mean that everybody else should take these terms as synonyms. Information systems are by definition ââ¬Å"computerized tools that assist people in transforming data into informationâ⬠ (DiBiase, 2008) but data systems are just groups of facts presented in a specific order (pixels forming a picture, radio waves broadcasted at one frequency). Secondly, and opportunely for the software houses and IT firms, ââ¬Ëkmââ¬â¢ came along just as they were being hit by the wave of scepticism over the possibility of IT ever delivering more than problems ââ¬â and certainly never likely to deliver productivity and performance. ââ¬ËWhoops, weââ¬â¢ve cracked it!ââ¬â¢ cried the IBMs and MSofts of this world ââ¬â ââ¬ËWe should have been dealing with ââ¬Ëknowledgeââ¬â¢ all along, and now we are ââ¬â Lotus Notes is no l   onger groupware and personal information management, itââ¬â¢s KnowledgeWare!ââ¬â¢ So they are happily marketing the same product under a new name. (Wilson, 2001, pa. 3)  As I mentioned earlier, the term knowledge management is on its raise, not because of marketing strategy of IT/ICT companies, but because of its popularity increasing with the needs for better entitlement of the information society. Thirdly, the organization and management boys finally began to realise that all this text that people were creating on word-processors, etc., needed to be managed effectively and, indeed, organized, shared and disseminated more effectively, but they couldnââ¬â¢t use ââ¬Ëinformation managementââ¬â¢ because that was ââ¬Ëinformation systemsââ¬â¢ and data, wasnââ¬â¢t it? So it must be ââ¬Ëknowledgeââ¬â¢, right? If we can only get people to share their ââ¬Ëknowledgeââ¬â¢ performance must improve because it is the communication barriers that are preventing the free flow of ââ¬Ëknowledgeââ¬â¢ (i.e., information). So, now, every aspect of organization and management theory has to have a ââ¬Ëknowledgeââ¬â¢ dimension, other   wise you arenââ¬â¢t in the game.  In the literature, of course, this amounts to the token use of the term ââ¬Ëknowledge managementââ¬â¢ and the use of ââ¬Ëknowledgeââ¬â¢ as a synonym for ââ¬Ëinformationââ¬â¢. (Wilson, 2001, pa. 4) Knowledge shouldnââ¬â¢t be used synonymously with information and I hope that this is not happening, at least at academic level. Also Wilson is not differentiating between data and information system which definitions are noted above. Fourthly, at the forefront of all this were the management consultancies ââ¬â why? Because BPR and Organizational Learning were running out of steam. Amusingly, all organizational learning work appears to come under the heading of ââ¬Ëkmââ¬â¢ ââ¬â more search and replace marketing. So, the consultancies grabbed at km in order to have something to sell at the end of the 90s. (Wilson, 2001, pa. 5)  The consultancies are always looking for the needs of business market and therefore they should be reflecting the needs of this market, at least to some point, so this point might be valid on a small extent of a scale. Finally, most (or at least many) departments of information management or information science, and departments of information systems in academia, are somewhat low on the totem pole in most of their institutions, and each needs to differentiate itself from the other in order to try to work its way up that greasy pole, so both have seized on km as an aid in the struggle.  I foresee turf-wars over which department, where there is one of each, has the right to run degrees in km. Where only one of the kind exists, it will seek to make km all-embracing of management, computer science, information systems, etc., etc. ââ¬â because the logic leads nowhere else ðŸâ¢â ââ¬ËIf we deal with knowledge ââ¬â then how can anyone else presume to do so?ââ¬â¢ (Wilson, 2001, pa. 6) The logic of Wilson leads nowhere else, because that is exactly what knowledge management is about: people, culture, technology, processes. The knowledge management is closer with its aim to the management and organization and the departments of information management are rising from IT/ICT fields so the need to go up should be also emerging from management places and not from information management departments.  7 Conclusion  With the development of new technologies in information and communication sector the new term ââ¬Ëknowledge managementââ¬â¢ has begun to be used in business sector. The term as such is not useless and meaning less as suggested by Wilson in his research. Wilson is asking the readers in the conclusion of his paper:â⬠If getting promotion, or holding your job, or finding a new one is based on the knowledge you possess ââ¬â what incentive is there to reveal that knowledge and share it?â⬠(2002, ââ¬Å"Conclusionâ⬠, pa. 2). And my answer to this probably rhetorical question is: Your working experience, your social and cultural background and most importantly your education. From all of these you can predict the amount of knowledge one possesses. Although it cannot be evaluated by any empirical measures, the existing society is surviving without these accurate measurements and surprisingly she is doing quite well.  This is not to say that enabling people to contribute effectively to the management of organizations is impossible and that sharing knowledge and enabling people to use their creativity in innovative ways in organizations is impossible ââ¬â simply that it is very difficult, and that it does not reduce to some simplistic concept of ââ¬Ëknowledge managementââ¬â¢! It demands a change in business culture, from the macho Harvard Business School model, to something more thoughtful and understanding of what motivates human beings. Organizations need to learn to think about problems, rather than grab at proffered ââ¬Ësolutionsââ¬â¢ ââ¬â which often turn out to be expensive side-tracks away from the main issues (Wilson, 2002, ââ¬Å"Conclusionâ⬠, pa. 3).  And thatââ¬â¢s why knowledge management isnââ¬â¢t just a simplistic concept. It includes tools from various fields such as and uses them for improvement of knowledge culture within the organization. The slight decrease in popularity of knowledge management in the last six years shows not the recess of knowledge management as a fad, but it rather shows the wide acceptance of knowledge management in the western society. The views presented by Wilson are shocking and very easy to understand and thatââ¬â¢s why I find this view presented by Wilson too simplistic and demagogic to some extent.

What annoys me about the British Weather
British Weather, three words: unpredictable, torturous and unbearable. We have all experienced the excruciatingly painful rain drops plummeting full speed onto our hoods or umbrellaââ¬â¢s, havenââ¬â¢t we? Well we live in England of course. As you prepare to leave home, you take one quick glance out of the window, and you see the blazing red hot sun shining, you can actually feel the warm radiation hitting your skin and the last thing on your mind is to remember to take an umbrella or a jacket with you just in case.  As you casually walk across the street to the bus stop you have an unexpected encounter with one of your ââ¬Ëfooty madââ¬â¢ friends who just talks about football. After he bores you to death and then finally leaves things get one notch worse, out of nowhere, completely unexpected you feel this cold spit on your face, few seconds later you endure a torrential torrent of rain blasting onto your body within ten seconds you are drenched in water, unfortunately this has happened to most of us. This diabolical problem needs a solution and the weather forecast is not it.  The arrogant weather who miserably dictates us the weather is entirely useless and unreliable. As a BBC clone he talks in that Standard English tone, as you listen you understand that all the information he is presenting to you is all gibberish. The next day you find out that the weather ââ¬Ësomehowââ¬â¢ turns out to be the complete opposite of what the weather forecast predicted yesterday. So there you have it, the met office should just give up on forecasting the weather because they are completely hopeless. Another point is not the sudden change of weather but the despicably messed up seasons.  You never know what you are going to get with British weather it constantly is on the move, there is cold weather in the summer and itââ¬â¢s warm in the winter, this year alone the snow is overdue itââ¬â¢s been expected and hasnââ¬â¢t arrived YET. From the bottom of my heart I would like to tell all of you people who want to visit England that it is not a holiday destination, at all especially in terms of weather. What you will get is not a relaxing, sunny holiday, but mainly an endless pour of rain which blasts on to you like a cannon of water, if you want to experience true English weather then book your tickets in winter as it might be very warm.  Britain never inevitably fails to disappoint or leave you feeling in utter despair, whether it is in sport in their terrible world cup campaign or in this case when you want beautiful weather for a special day and it ends up disappointing you. It is always important to always be prepared with a brolly or a coat even if you end up looking like an utter fool in a winter coat like youââ¬â¢re going hiking in the arctic in the hottest day of the year. Cold weather comes natural to the UK and from past experience I get use to this sort of climate as if it was second nature.  One of the worst moments is when you have to a spend a depressing Monday of your holidays locked inside at home, bored and in a dull displeasing atmosphere starring obliviously out of the window at the grey, dismal sky. Where droplets of rain are rolling down the window, and you can hear the thunderous cascading rain hitting the roof. At this moment in time you are hopelessly hoping that eventually this annoying rainy weather will just stop! What really ticks me off is that the winter weather causes many disruptions to the public transport system, not that it was the most efficient method of travel anyway.  It also causes many businesses and schools to close early which plays mostly in favour for school students. Roads are blocked by the snow and this irritates drivers because they are blinded by the fog, this is disastrous for the economy apparently, because Britain is always caught unprepared even though we experience snowy and foggy conditions almost every year. In summary: donââ¬â¢t even bother to listen to the weather forecast as they talk complete nonsense, and make sure your prepared at least take a coat because it could start raining after all we do live in England.

Analysis of the U.S. Health Care System
Analysis of the U.S. Health Care System      U.S. Health Care System   Radhika Chhabra   Healthcare within the United States has captured different people within the field such as business leaders, policy makers, and health experts to give the system a reformation. Within the year of 1993 and 1994 the United States government has changed over the course of the year and made sure that the reformation of the nationââ¬â¢s health care system stays intact. There are many underlying issues within the health care system and they need to have problems fixed as soon as possible and provide care to patients that are needed. ââ¬Å"Unlike many other issues, the polls of American health care could be defined simply: health care costs too much and too many Americans go without needed care. Yet agreeing on a cure for those ills proved to be exceedingly difficultâ⬠ (Cloyd, 2014). The United States carries on different ideas to improve their healthcare system and it seems like the way of expansion they need to have the proper access t   o provide the correct services that are needed within the U.S. health care system. Within the U.S. healthcare system the costs need to be lowered because the prices are tending to escalate within different organizations and the delivery of healthcare. The United States has been tied up within their problems and their main concern is the financial resources that are unable to be provided to them. This is one of the reasons why the U.S. depends on other countries to look for cures and other solution to provide medical care for patients. With different accesses that should be able to guarantee the control of costs within a health care facility. It tends to make it more difficult at times when they do not know what to expect and that ends up being risky and uncertain. The U.S. health care system needs to be successful with changing the system and the way they approach patients in the delivery. ââ¬Å"Therefore the right question is whether measures exist that can improve conditions subs   tantially within a reasonable amount of time. Different health care systems meet different needs and set different priorities. Each health care system tries to meet priorities, and in doing so each has disadvantages and advantagesâ⬠ (Cloyd, 2014). By reforming the healthcare system the U.S. should follow other countries institutions and making decisions what is best for their patients and their facilities. The consideration is that the country adopted other conditions from other countries and that makes it clarify that that it cannot be possible to transition into another nationââ¬â¢s health care system. The people that are involved within the transition are the ones that are interested with specific features of other medical equipment and what they system provide to help patients out with their care. The U.S. system has different companies around the country that will provide medical care to their patients but have adaptation from different Japanese manufactures that will p   rovide high quality techniques. The reason why the United States can adopt different aspects of different countries healthcare systems is because they can learn from each other on their culture and technology. People are showing the same and or different challenges that they face within a medical facility and for those reasons they are able to learn off one another. ââ¬Å"Thus, the search for solutions has become global in scope, as the United States looks beyond its borders to examine how other industrialized nations provide and finance health care. Such lessons from abroad are made possible by cross-national comparisons and analyses of the extensive comparative data and information availableâ⬠ (Cloyd, 2014). There are different challenges that people tend to face within the American health care system and those are: the pressure of populations, the medical increases in costs and expensive procedures that are being done. Different nations are having a hard time of balancing t   hese issues and making sure that they get resolved in a timely matter to making sure that everything works best for the patients. ââ¬Å"Thereââ¬â¢s a bright side, to be sure. The U.S. leads the world in health care research and cancer treatment, for instance. The five-year survival rate for breast cancer is higher in the U.S. than in other OECD countries and survival from colorectal cancer is also among the best, according to the group (Kane, 2012). The US and other countries need to show an interest in another and see the benefits from each country and what they can provide for one another. Medical facilities need to feed off one another from different countries and see what they can provide and bring to the table that way their expansion can be bigger and better.

Premise Ato - Essay Example    Debate also suggests that washing hands by health care providers might not be the primary way to prevent the spread of disease however, due to the results that do show that these prevent the speared of disease, the U.S Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has issued through recommendations promoting hand washing by health care providers (Lucking, Maffei, Tamburro & Thomas, 2012).    Having highlighted how important it is to wash hands, the adherence to hand washing guidelines by healthcare providers and especially by physicians is notoriously poor (Lucking, Maffei, Tamburro & Thomas, 2012).    For this research paper, evidence from Chengdu, China is looked at, where 6 hospitals were observed for hand washing adherence. Doctors and nurses were asked about their hand washing practice and observations are recorded. Surprisingly out of 1535 activities where hand hygiene is considered necessary, only about 17.8% of the times the healthcare providers complied with hand washing safety standards (Han, Dou, Zhang & Zhou, 2011). These results donââ¬â¢t reflect the situation in the US however this is an eye opener as to what can be expected in case there is no scrutiny regarding hygiene.    Speaking of overall situation of hand hygiene, in practice it is only observed half of the times it is required for patient care (Carayon, 2011). And interestingly, healthcare providers have their reasons for not completely adhering to hygiene practices; less number of sinks, soap causing irritation or dryness, less number of paper towels and soap, wastage of time as they are too busy with patients, they even complain about faucets and sinks being located at odd places (Carayon, 2011).    This complaint from nurses of not having enough time to pay attention to their hand hygiene is also endorsed by Lautenbach, Woeltje & Malani (2010), where they showed that lack of hand hygiene in hospitals was the major cause of transmitting pathogens.

Figurative Language versus Literal Language Essay - 22
Figurative Language versus Literal Language - Essay Example    According to the paper examples of idioms are ââ¬Å"it is raining cats and dogsâ⬠ meaning heavy rain, and ââ¬Å"he is on the wagonâ⬠ meaning that the person is not partaking of alcoholic drinks. This kind of language should be used with care when addressing non-native speakers of English. An analogy is a comparison of one idea with another. It usually finds a simple idea and uses it to explain the meaning of a more complex idea. An example of an analogy is the statement that ââ¬Å"punctuation marks are the traffic signals of languageâ⬠. By likening commas and full stops to traffic signs, the writer illuminates the concept of writing in terms of an extended comparison with driving along a street. A metaphor also compares two things or ideas, but it does so in such a way that they are merged into the one concept. An example is seen in the phrase ââ¬Å"he is a pigâ⬠. If this phrase refers to the farmyard animal then it is a literal statement. If it refers to a hu   man being then it is a rather insulting metaphor which suggests the person has bad manners and is greedy or self-indulgent in other ways. From this study, it is clear that a simile is another way of comparing one thing with another in a piece of writing. It is not the same as a metaphor because in the case of a simile the two ideas are compared using the words ââ¬Å"likeâ⬠ or ââ¬Å"as.â⬠ An example of a simile can be found in the nursery rhyme phrase: ââ¬Å"its fleece was white as snow.â⬠ The comparison of a sheepââ¬â¢s coat with snow emphasizes how pure and white it is and makes for a much more interesting description than just a statement of the white color on its own. The term clichà © is borrowed from the French. It refers to a phrase which may have originally been quite memorable, but which has been overused to the point where it has become almost meaningless.

OSMOREGULATION IN CLAMWORMS Essay Example | Topics and Well Written Essays - 1250 words
OSMOREGULATION IN CLAMWORMS - Essay Example    They are the large common estuarines. They are also found on the brackish waters. (Oglesby, 1968). Now they are also found at Africa, coastal Europe and Southern Australia. They grow to a height of 190 mm and lives for one year. They reproduce sexually. The most important characteristic of this species is that they are able to withstand the temperature range of 12 - 35à °C and survive at a salinity range of 65 ppt for long time and 80 ppt for short time. They are good osmoregulators. Osmoregulation is na active regulation of the osmosis pressure of the body fluids (mainly water) with that of the environmental conditions. Osmosis is maintained both by the terrestrial and marine animals. They do so by excretion through the organs such as kidney and skin. Osmoregulation is of two types, they are osmoregulators and osmo conformers. Osmoregulators are strict regulators of salt and water concentration in the body to that of the environment. osmoconformers match their body fluid concentrat   ion to that of the environment.(Masterson, 2008). Neries virens species is able to withstand the salt water content from 5 % to 100%. Some studies have found that they are also able to withstand twice the salt concentration that of salt water. They are only slightly hyperosmotic whereas most of the worms are in osmotic equilibrium with the sea. Review of literature: The body fluids of Nereis are isoosmotic for the sea water. Osmoregulation is one of the important functions of the gut, dorsal pores and the body surface. The salts are transported by active transport and the water by osmosis. Osmosis is the movement of the water (solvent) from high concentration to low concentration across a semi permeable membrane. Here the cell membrane acts as the semi permeable membrane. The influence of the sea water on the weight of the body. The greater the dilution, the greater the increase in the body weight. The worm tends to accommodate itself to the new environment. After the increase in th   e body weight, they tend to return back to the normal weight if they are left in the original sea water. These euryhaline osmoregulators are thus capable of surviving in reduced, increased salinity levels. They are found to show two types of blood osmo regulation. First they act as hyper osmotic in the diluted sea water with greater osmo regulatory control. Two important mechanisms are stated for this hyper osmotic capability. The transport of the body salts from the body surface to the body fluid through the medium. The second mechanism is by the reduction of the permeability of the body surface to the solutes and solvents. (Oglesby, 1968). For increasing salt concentrations of upto 2 times the salt concentration they act as hypo- osmotic. The concentration of salt in sea water is 1000 m ââ¬â Osmole / liter and the blood of Nereis contains about 340 ââ¬â 500 m ââ¬â Osmole / liter at marine conditions and 280 ââ¬â 360 m ââ¬â Osmole / liter at the fresh water leve   ls. The pH of the coelomic fluid was found to increase as the salinity of the water increases. If the salt concentration is higher at the outer environment, the water moves out of the body of the Nereis and thus loses its weight in order to maintain the osmotic pressure as constant. They adapt to the environment very quickly because of the well developed excretory organs. Pronephridia are the excretory and osmoregulaatory organs that are able to drive out the excess water and the waste products. (Whitton, 1975). Another study investigated the osmotic stress due to the long term assimilation and short term assimilation of salinity changes. A single worm was exposed to different salt concentration at different time intervals for a period of 14 days and the changes in weight were measured at continuous time intervals. Another worm

Animal Human Cultures Essay Example | Topics and Well Written Essays - 2000 words - 1
Animal Human Cultures - Essay Example    In this regards, Goodall (1993) narrated various instances illustrating the sufferings of both humans and nonhumans targeting on the role played by humans as protestors, when the human society itself is suffering by almost a similar degree. He even debates on the significance of such arguments or rather protests made by humans stating the sufferings of non-humans to be greater. It is in this context that the sufferings of human and nonhuman beings have emerged as a subject of great dispute suggesting that both should be provided with certain degree of prominence. Although unnecessary suffering of nonhumans is brutal, sufferings of human beings can also be proved as similarly terrible (Goodall, 1993, pp. 10-18). This paper describes the significances of suffering of nonhuman beings and human beings from different perspectives based on the statement of Goodall (1993) that ââ¬Å"Who are we to say that the suffering of a human being is more terrible than the suffering of a nonhuman bein   g, or that it matters more?â⬠ (pp. 15). The objective of the paper is to understand the viewpoints of both types of sufferings and develop a rational understanding towards the issue. Discussion There is rising awareness among the human society about abuse of nonhuman beings in zoos, forests, households and even circuses. ...   There are also circumstances of suffering among humans with respect to being tortured by the police and other powerful status holders. At times, it has also been observed that the children are intentionally distorted after destroying their body limbs (such as eyes, hands or legs) in order to make them begging. Besides, humans were also sold in return of money or being forced to adopt prostitution and other unkind living styles. Thus, no matter how people raise voices against suffering of nonhuman beings, it cannot be misled by the fact that human beings also suffer from same misery compared to the nonhumans (Goodall, 1993, pp. 10-18). Value of Human and Nonhuman Beings There is increasing concern among people about the value of human as well as nonhuman beings. Generally, human beings attempt to increase cognizance about sufferings of nonhumans who are raised in firms, zoos, laboratories or in circuses developing legislation in order to protect them. However, they delude themselves b   y believing that human also suffer similarly in comparison with nonhumans (Goodall, 1993, pp. 10-18). Based on this particular thought, it can be argued that in recent phenomenon, an increasing importance have been rendered towards protecting the genre of nonhuman species treating the humans to be the superior most and certainly the liable one to take the plunge. The increasing rate of environment protection awareness can also be identified as a rudiment towards such notions rather than focusing on their sufferings. But, does that mean values of nonhumans are more than the humans? It is true that nonhumans are imprisoned in zoos, and exploited for public entertainment. They are

Why might we consider globalization to be generated Essay
Why might we consider globalization to be generated - Essay Example    Globalization is a big word today and one that has changed the way we look at and understand things around us. What is actually globalization What do we understand by this word Globalization is simply the predisposition of the economy through business, knowledge through technology and thought through philosophy to spread globally. Globalization can also mean the process by which this happens. This term is almost synonymous with intertwining of markets and economies without any consideration for physical border or legal restraints. One of the best examples that jump into my mind is the McDonalds. What better example of globalization    Waters1 (1995) describes globalization as 'a social process in which the constraints of geography on social and cultural arrangements recede and in which people become increasingly aware that they are receding'. Ideally it is believed that globalization is the means to create a global positive impact upon the poor and the poverty in general by opening the doors to availability of a host of opportunities and resources which would have, otherwise not been available nationally. The downside is that globalization seems to profit the rich more and the poor less, thus widening the gap further.   It is true that globalization actually means the broadening of global linkages, while also impacting upon the social and cultural dimensions of the global society, hence propagating a one-world-citizenship which has one economy, one culture and one social order. Ecumenically globalization's definition would be complete with the above classifications. But there are many inroads in the understanding of the term. This is the process with which the poor countries can think of modernization and global competition, enhanced living standards, and work opportunities; on the other hand this very same process is the one which can destroy economies by sudden influx of foreign capital, can destroy marginalized workers livelihood and destabilize national banks. Hence, globalization literally is like a coin - with two very separate sides.  When we think of globalization impact on gender, we need to understand first of all what is defined by 'gender'. What is gender Gender is basically the terms that is most commonly used for 'women'. It is mostly used as social term than biological one. Gender as a term is closed to the definition of anything that refers to women in a social connotation.  Now let us think about globalization vis--vis gender. How has globalization impacted gender Is globalization gendered Should it be, in the first place Should it not be This essay is trying to look into a few aspects of globalization which impact women and thereby deduce whether globalization is gendered or not.  Gender inequality in particular can create very confusing effects which however are able to highlight the fact the there is a strong connection between poverty and gender. UNDP (1999) has statistics with which you cannot argue. Inspite of the common belief, poverty has actually grown by leaps and bound in the last 10-20 years;

Issues, Data, And Analyses Of Racial Profiling Essay - 1
Issues, Data, And Analyses Of Racial Profiling - Essay Example    Racial profiling prevents the police from serving the whole community in an effective way. Leaning on one side for racial reasons is detrimental to societal development, and the authority should not tolerate this behavior. Moreover, the continued use of racial profiling could easily lead to racially-motivated violence (Moody 321). This happens when victimsââ¬â¢ gang up to face offenders or the offenders collaborate to suppress victims in a particular way. Some highlighted reasons why racial profiling should not be legal law are; the whole idea is morally wrong, police officers would not perform their duties justly, communityââ¬â¢s collaboration in cases of crimes reduces, and it may lead to more racial violence.  The idea of racial profiling has many visible instances in the United States. Most African-Americans complain that police stops them regularly for check-ups than their white counterparts. The idea is that they are more suspects of terrorism than Americans. This is moral decay in the society which reduces peopleââ¬â¢s morale in involvement in various economic activities. Instances involving racial profiling in the city are numerous. One citizen reports that ââ¬Å"airport officials pulled his friend aside, and question him before allowing him to take his flight because he is a Muslim-Americanâ⬠ (Schmidt 23). This is a practice of racial profiling, and should not be law by all means. Considering the situation in which officials harass ten or more people on the basis of such beliefs; the result is a loss of trust in authority and lawmakers, which also retards societal growth. In some instances, African Americans complain that traffic police stops them regularly for unwarranted c   hecks just because of their color.       
Something I Feel so Strongly About (at of This Moment) Essay Example for Free
 Something I Feel so Strongly About (at of This Moment) Essay  The moment we were asked by our professor on something that we strongly feel about, I already had thoughts and mix-ups on my mind. Honestly, I find this one a bit confusing to write. I mean, Iââ¬â¢m not sure if my thoughts are likely good enough for me to write something with sense here. Anyway, I began this by thinking and feeling deeply. Yes, I mean this word: DEEPLY. I thought of whatââ¬â¢s really bothering me, both mentally and emotionally.         Itââ¬â¢s like I was asking myself whatââ¬â¢s that thing I do feel so strongly about. I thought of hundreds of things. Then I came up with this particular matter that I think occupies mostly my thoughts. I know itââ¬â¢s hilarious to hear this and itââ¬â¢s kinda weird because of the fact that there are millions of things as choices and I have concluded that this thing is about my crush. Isnââ¬â¢t it funny? Iââ¬â¢m actually smiling while writing this one. I feel like Iââ¬â¢m so childish and immature. But this is the truth and this time, I have to deal with it. I think I should just screen his name.  Read more: Proudest Moment of My Life  Iââ¬â¢ll just keep it private here because itââ¬â¢s so awkward. Iââ¬â¢m crazy about this boy. Hahaha! I daydream many things about him. I daydream of the way he smiles, the way he talks, the way he stares at something, and everything about him. I daydream about me and him together. I want to emphasize the word ââ¬Å"DREAMâ⬠ because I know itââ¬â¢s all impossible. Hahaha! I stalk on him, particularly on Facebook. I did a research about his name and backgrounds. Every time I see him, Iââ¬â¢m whispering like ââ¬Å"Boy, you got my heartbeat runninââ¬â¢ away.â⬠ Seeing him can already make my day. Seeing him smile is really a great impact. Itââ¬â¢s like vitamins to my heart.  Hahaha! Heââ¬â¢s one of my inspirations. Weââ¬â¢re not friends. I just know him and I guess, he doesnââ¬â¢t even know me. I feel hurt and insecure whenever I see him with other girls. I know it sounds funny because I donââ¬â¢t have the right to be. Iââ¬â¢m just an ambitious loser: dreaming of something really impossible. I know lots of girls are also crushing on him. I donââ¬â¢t certainly know if what feeling is Iââ¬â¢m feeling. If itââ¬â¢s love or just a mere infatuation. But one thing is for sure, itââ¬â¢s not obsession. I donââ¬â¢t care if I may sound defensive but Iââ¬â¢m pretty sure itââ¬â¢s not. Feelings come and go. If this might lead for something worthy someday, I hope for this to stay. But if itââ¬â¢s never meant to be, then I also hope for this feeling to go away.

St Thomas Aquinas Five Ways Philosophy Essay
St Thomas Aquinas Five Ways Philosophy Essay    St. Thomas Aquinas is most famous for his Five Ways. He regarded that the ontological argument as invalid. We cannot prove that God exists, merely by considering the word God, as the ontological argument in effect supposes. For that strategy work, we would have to presume to know Gods essence. The proposition of God exists is not self-evident to us mere mortals. Although people can prove Gods existence in several ways, we cannot do it just by examining the concept of God. We have to consider what it is about nature that makes it manifest that it requires God as its original cause. According to Aquinas, the existence of God can be proved are in fact five, and it is his most famous Five Ways  The first way to prove that God exists is to consider the fact that natural things are in motion. According to Aquinas, a first mover must exist. If first mover do not exists, there would be no other mover and nothing would be in motion. It means all the natural things are in motion, and it needs another moving thing to move it. As we look around the world and survey move things, it becomes clear that they do not put themselves into motion. But all things are all in motion, and they cannot move by their own, therefore, a first mover must exist and it is not moved by other, and that thing is God.  The most important idea Aquinas wants to say is that things do not put themselves into motion, do not suppose that he thought that people cannot get up out of their chair and walk across the room. He means that things do not just bring themselves into existence, there must be someone put themselves into motion.  The second way of proving Gods existence is kind of similar to the first one. Aquinas says in the world of sensible things, nothing causes itself. It means everything is causes by something else. It has to be a first cause, if there have no first cause exist, there would be no first effect. In fact, there would be no second or third effect either. If first causes must exist, then we must admit that is God.  Aquinas did not say anything in either of the first two proofs about things being moved or caused by earlier motion or causes. The various motions and causes he is talking about are simultaneous. In Aquinass opinion, there is no philosophical reason that the chain of causes could not go back infinitely. But there cannot be an infinite series of simultaneous causes or movers. His argument is that things must be causes by something earlier, and because this chain of causes cannot go back infinitely, therefore, it must have a first cause, and it is God.  The Big Bang theory is a good example to proof Aquinass theory. The Big Bang is accepted by most scientists that the universe is an explosion. The Big Bang is the beginning of space and time of matter and energy, and it is the beginning of our expanding universe. But the universe does have an absolute beginning, which was a first physical event. It is difficult to believe that the first physical event has no explanation, for that amounts to saying that the entire universe is just a chance occurrence. If the physical event is explicable, then it would seem that the explanation must refer to some sort of nonphysical phenomenon, which is God.  The third way is the most complicated of the Five Ways, God is the necessary of our being existence. Aquinas says everything can lay our hands on belongs to need-not-exist category, if everything belongs to this category, then at one time nothing existed, and then it would have been impossible for anything to have begun to exist, and thus even now nothing would exist. There must exist something the existence of which is necessary. Aquinas believed that he had not yet ruled out the possibility that the necessity of this necessary being might be caused by another necessary being, whose necessity might be caused by another. He asserted that it is impossible to go on to infinity in necessary things which have their necessity caused by another. Therefore, he concludes that there must be some necessary being that has its own necessity, and that is God.  Aquinass first three proofs of Gods existence are versions of what today is called the cosmological argument. The cosmological argument is actually not one argument but a type of argument. This type of argument means that the existence of contingent things, things that could possibly not have existed, points to the existence of a noncontingent or necessary being, God, as their ultimate cause or source of being.  Aquinass fourth way to prove God is the gradation to be found in things. It has to consider the fact that all natural things possess degrees of goodness, truth, nobility, and all other perfections. The gradation in things in the sense that something can be more good. Therefore, there must be that which is the source of these perfections, namely, pure goodness and truth, and this is what we call God.  The fourth proof about the existence of goodness or good things is called the moral argument. This argument is supporting the existence of God, it argues that God is the best and is the only explanation for morality. God is the best moral for everything; God must exist to support that moral order exists.  The last way to proof of Gods existence is predicated on the observation that natural things act for an end or purpose. That is, they function in accordance with a plan or design. Accordingly, an intelligent being exists by which things are directed toward their end, and this intelligent being is God.  Arguments like Aquinass fifth proof, according to which the apparent purposefulness or orderliness of the universe or its parts or structure points to the existence of a divine designer, are called teleological arguments. The teleological argument suggests that, given this premise, the existence of a designer can be assumed, typically presented as God.  According to Aquinas, some theological truths, truths of revelation, are such that philosophy could never discover them. For example, philosophy cannot establish that the universe had a beginning and is not eternal. And not everything discovered by philosophy is important for salvation. But philosophy and theology, although separate disciplines, are not incompatible, they complement each other. From standpoint of theology, that God exists is a given, a truth that people start out knowing. Thus, Aquinass proofs of Gods existence are philosophical proofs. They do not depend for their soundness on any religious principles.

Role of the College Dining Commons in Gaining the Freshman Fifteen Essa
Role of the College Dining Commons in Gaining the Freshman Fifteen    Introduction:  	When beginning college, many freshmen, or first years, have to adjust to the different aspects of college life:  the environment, the rigorous academics, the various clubs and activities to be involved in and the new friendships to be made.  If one is living in the dorms, another area of adjustment to be made is the food.  At UC Davis, the dining commons, more commonly known as the ââ¬Å"DC,â⬠ are the main sources of food for freshmen (and a few transfer students) living on campus.  While Sodhexo, the company that runs the dining commons, claims to promote a healthy variety of food to choose from, quite a few students disagree with Sodhexoââ¬â¢s claim, insisting that there are not enough adequate healthy foods to eat.  This paper will explore and evaluate the food at the dining commons, from both a personal and nutritional standpoint, as well as determine if the food served can be linked to the ââ¬Å"freshman fifteen.â⬠      The Dining Commons Diet:         The following is a typical menu at the DC:  At lunch, chicken nuggets, vegetarian cheese lasagna, sandwiches, Vegetarian Parmesan Panini, Vegan 5 Bean Salad with pita chips and Vegan cheesecake are offered.  Dinner choices include:  Salisbury steak and steamed potatoes, lemon ginger stir fry in a noodle bowl, vegetarian linguine parmesan, an array of pizzas at the pizza bar, Mongolian-style wok and Vegan Santa Fe chili and Jasmine rice.  Of course, the dining commons also offers soups ââ¬â such as vegetarian garden vegetable or turkey noodle, along with the Aggie grill, which includes hamburgers, veggie burgers, hot dogs, grilled-cheese sandwiches, both grilled and breaded chicken breast patties and French fries...              ...rect.com.

Glory :: Movie Film Review Glory Essays
Glory      Glory captures the heroism of Colonel Robert Gould Shaw and the first black  regiment in the Civil War, the Massachusetts "Fighting" Fifty-fourth. An  extremely talented cast and crew earned three Academy Awards (cinematography,  sound and supporting actor) and five nominations for their work in Glory. The  outstanding cinematography, sound, score and acting recreate the events leading  up to the Union attack on Fort Wagner on July 18th 1863.    Matthew Broderick portrays the young Bostonian abolitionist Col. Robert G.  Shaw who takes command of the Fifty-fourth, following the Emancipation  Proclamation. Shaw along with Cabot Forbes (Cary Elwes) leads a band of ex  slaves, servants and other black volunteers including a rebellious runaway slave  Trip (Denzel Washington), Shaw's educated childhood friend Thomas Searles (Andre  Braugher), and a former grave digger Rawlins (Morgan Freeman). Together these  men face the adversity of a racist Union Army, struggling to prove themselves  worthy of their government issued blue uniforms.    After months of training and exploitation for physical labor, the Fifty-  fourth gains the opportunity to fight in an attack on Fort Wagner on the beaches  of South Carolina. Poised to dispel the belief that blacks would not be  disciplined under fire, the Fifty-fourth leads the almost suicidal attack on Ft.  Wagner. There Col. Shaw valiantly falls and the Fifty-fourth, suffering great  losses, displayed the courage that persuaded the Union to enlist many more black  soldiers.    Matthew Broderick delivers a noteworthy performance in the role of Col.  Shaw, which Leonard Maltin calls his most ambitious part. In an interview for  the New York Times, Broderick spoke of his method acting,    "The first step [in preparing for the role of Robert Gould Shaw in Glory]  was to try to learn as much as I could about the real person. That was mostly  from letters, photographs, descriptions and a poem by Emerson. The thing I had  to do was bring myself into that situation. I didn't want to be an imitation of  what I thought Shaw must have been like."    Broderick's acting talent has been noted on Broadway as well as in films.  Broderick won a Tony Award for his performance in "Brighton Beach Memoirs" in  1983, a year after his film debut in Max Dugan Returns. (Maltin, 102) But it was  his role as a computer hacker in War Games and his role as a handsome young teen  touring Chicago in Ferris Bueller's Day Off that alerted moviegoers to his  talent.    Denzel Washington has received critical acclaim for his role as Trip (as  well as an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor). Denzel commented on the role of  Trip in an interview with the New York Times.

Moreover, I attended and completed all the prerequisite courses in nurse aid.Being an alumna of the school, I prefer to have my formal physician assistant education    program in University of Wisconsin, as I believe that the method of teaching by the university is proven and effective. Therefore, I wish to achieve another milestone in my life as a qualified and ratified physician assistant under the uplifting educational support of the University that I truly trust and believe.In the end, if I get the chance to complete the program and be one of the countries prime physician assistant, my primary goal as a professional is a effect changes that I believe to be the best in providing patient care. Thus, I wish to achieve the reputation that I long as valuable and competent physician assistant, through my whole hearted service with my patient and with the attending physician.ReferencesPhysician Assistants.

Ping Sweeps and Port Scans Essay
Recently, it was brought to my  caution that there   be concerns about  few activities on the  mesh topology that can be considered less than trus 2rthy. Specifically, the concerns  atomic number 18 regarding  profits  employment called  knock sweeps and  manner  stares. Im putting together this paper to  let off how   knock sweeps and port scans impact our network traffic.First we must  take what these two things do before we can  clear how they are  economic consumptiond to impact a network. Ill  get off with ping sweeps. A ping sweep is a   directize that is sent to a  draw of  instruments on a network to simply  recognize if there is a reply back. This is through via an ICMP Echo request that is sent to  apiece  mould.The ICMP Echo request is a signal sent out to an IP  hide requesting an answer back. More commonly know as a ping. The ping  pull up stakes wait for a response from every machine that is  utilize the IP  citation specified in the ping and  allow let the person  rate   ing the ping know if the port the machine is using on the network is open or not.The ping sweep takes the ping to the  succeeding(a) level as it will send these pings out to a large range of IP addresses requesting responses back. It lets the person sending the ping sweep know what machines are  bouncy and what machines are off. It is an easy way for a less than scrupulous person to  consider where they might be able to  move an intrusion at.But please understand that ping sweeps are not  merely used by intruders trying to  part our network or other  criminal actions. Ping sweeps are  as well  utilise by our own networking personnel for use in troubleshooting issues on the network. Its is  alike used in resolving licensing issues as well. So not all ping sweeps are bad for the network.Port scans are a animal that takes ping sweeps to the  attached level. The goal of a port scan is to actually see a machine on the network by searching for machines. Of course, the machine must be   ca   ter on for the port scan to  come up it. When it does find a machine that is powered on, the port scan will start getting to work.The port scan will scan for a port on the machine once its  find one. It will then determine what  run are running on the port that its discovered. This is important to the intruder because it gives them the  randomness they need to take over the machine running on the discovered port. The  assay to our network from Ping sweeps port scans is minimal. We  receive several tools at our disposal that are  catamenialy acting to block  away ping sweeps and port scans from intruding on our network.The biggest protection we currently have in  tail end is our hardware and  bundle firewalls. They are configured to help block  entry echo requests and protect unauthorized intrusions on our machines. With that being said though, we must  eer work with the assumption that we are  conquerable to attack. This is because every day somebody somewhere is trying to figure ou   t a way to get past the current protection technology that is in place. No network on the planet is  on the whole locked down from intrusion and there is no exception. Education is also the key to staying  protect against intrusions.Automated updates are in place on all our security software so that we continue to stay up to date with our security patches. Continuing our  command of the employees within the company on network security by providing the latest readings on threats or via monthly newsletters will also continue. This, I believe, will provide the heightened  cognizance desired and protect our information stored or shared on our network.  
People Whose Native Language Is Not English
People whose native  actors line is  non  incline, but who wish to  larn  side of meat as a  fleck language, must  date side as a  brand-new language, as a skill, as an additional means of communication. They  agree to learn how to pronounce strange words, and which syllables to emphasise, and what rhythms and tonal pitches should be used. But people whose mother tongue is English do not  comport to go to  drill to learn these things, they learn it automatically, from their p arnts, their relatives, their friends and from everyday life.For example, they do not have to learn the grammar structure, or the various forms for past, present and time to come tenses they  effective acquire that ability subconsciously and instinctively, from  unpatterned exposure to the language they do not consciously know the rules of grammar, and they probably could not even explain them. By the age of three, or  maybe even earlier, they just automatically know what words to use in many situation and what    form those words should take.However, later, as part of their formal educational training, they  go out have English lessons at school, along with other subjects such as Geography and History and Mathematics etc. They may be given writing practice, and the opportunities to read  literature that  go out expand their communication and learning skills. They will be encouraged to read and write stories and poetry, and will be given opportunities to become  more than and more familiar with their native tongue and how it is used in different ways to communicate information and ideas. They do not need to learn to understand the English language.They  endure already do that, but by doing English as a school subject, they will expand their  vocabulary discover alternative, and maybe better, ways to express themselves. In doing so, any little mistakes in their English will be corrected along the way. ) SUMMARY Those who are learning English as a second language are learning it as an entirely    new language. It is not easy to do this, but  salutary worth the effort. Native-English speakers do not have to learn English, they already know English But, by learning English as a school subject, their natural English is  raise and developed.
