...number and address? How do you respond to such requests? Yes I've been asked. It is strange that I always gave my number and address and even didn't think about it. 3. How many hours in a day you are actively online? From 07.00 am to 11.00 pm, around 16 hours. 4. Are you a member of facebook, twitter, and/or instagram? What other social network sites do you use? How many interactions/entries do you make in a day to social media platforms? I'm the member of Facebook and Linkedin. I make one or two interactions or entries in a day. Do you believe that in your professional life, your privacy is invaded by the company you work for? Please explain why. As far as I know, the main privacy invasion ways that the employers uses are as follows ; * Email monitoring, * Web site monitoring, * Recording the keystrokes on the computer, * Video recording, * Monitoring the company vehicles with GPS, * Recording the conversations I know that, my company is only monitoring the emails and the web sites entered in working hours if we use the devices, email account and the internet connection of the company. This is not disturbing me because while being hired, every employee are informed that company email accounts, internet connection and the devices are only for use for work related issues and these are being monitored by the company. So I don't beleive in that I'm invaded by my company. Do you feel that your privacy as a consumer is invaded...

...The movie i chose was the Hunger Games. The Hunger Games is a movie about a collection of districts each being represented by individuals. The winner helps their district because after they win the government gives them food. In the end love comes to shock the districts and make a huge change. The chapter i choose to use first is,"....More Than Its Gonna Hurt You: Concerning violence." The Hunger Games is all about violence. To win the Hunger Games the chracters must kill each other until only one is left. As author Thomas Foster says in his book How To Read Literature Like A Professor, "Violence is one of the most personal and even intimate acts between human beings, but it can also be cultural and societal in its implications." I see this as saying even though a killing may just seem like a simple killing, it can mean so much more in literature. I beleive that symbolization in this story is, what people will do to survive, including putting all morals behind. Foster also describes how violence is not only a physical act but how it can be a "narrative violence". He describes how narrative violence is the violence an author uses to help him further the plot. He says it is the violence of the author and not the characters. For example when Rue dies, this is used to further show not only the emotion and love Katnis shows, but to also show the violence and aggresion that the other chracters show. But when the boy from district ten dies, no one knows how. All this does is move...

...form a triple-stranded structure. This molecule can attach itself to a gene, and either prevent the RNA polymerase from transcribing the gene, or promote transcription by exposing some of the single-stranded DNA to transcription-initiating enzymes. This action can be very useful as a gene therapy in patients who are producing too much, or not enough of a certain protein. Another prospect of this mysterious molecule is the creation of artificial life. All of the organisms on earth are based on DNA and RNA, so the idea of creating life with only PNA is very intriguing to scientists. The major problem with this idea is that because the PNA is so stable, it is very difficult for it to split into two daughter strands. In reading this article, I learned that DNA and RNA are not the only existing nucleic acids. They are the only natural ones, but many more synthetic/artificial nucleic acids have been discovered, including PNA. I think that the implementation of PNA into drugs that regulate gene expression will be a major advancement in the field of molecular genetics. This molecule has the potential to regulate the symptoms of many genetic diseases, a huge step forward in the lives of those affected by genetic diseases. The one ethical issue surrounding PNA is the use of this molecule to create artificial life. The results of such an experiment are anyone's guess, and even though an outcome is still very far in the distance, there are those who beleive humans are not supposed to be playing...

...I would beleive that the word apple is spelled one way. But when you go to other countries the spelling changes because it is said in different words. Core Human Resource Functions" Please respond to the following: •Determine how you might reduce involuntary turnover if you were the top human resource manager. As a top human reasource manger I would reduce involuntary turnover by haveing the manager of each team send individauls with "poor job performace and/ or unethical behaviors" to a one week training where they get a second chance and motivation to do the best they can(Boone, 265). If the employee does well then they get to move to a differnt team where they get a fresh start or remain on the same team.The one week training allows employees to see a new start where they have the chance to succed again. If the employee does not do well then they will be terminated. •Recommend two ways to control compensation costs that do not decrease employee motivation or productivity. To control compensation cost that do not decrease employee motivation or productivity I would look into two methods. One would be to have monthly reviews of the team and give the team that proformed the best that month a day off. The second would be to give the team a LTE instead of a yearly bonus. The LTE would be 2/3 payment of the 1.5 years.This means that instead of getting a bonus every year you get a bonus every year and a half. The value of the bonus would be 2/3 of your yearly bonus(2/3...

...love like what is the meaning of life is one of the questions that will remain unsolved forever. But right now the love is a great thing that should be treasured forever and valued as a important part in your life because it will effect all relationships, romantic or not. Love has not changed at all over the course of history and this makes it the most important emotion anyone could have. Most people take love for granted and worry about it always being there when they need it the most. Family love is another type of love we can think about. It is the love we use between our intermediate family and our extended family members. Family love is said to be blind, only to show that love can be shown to anyone no matter condition or problems one can have. Of course we all know about the good times, hard times, and times we have as a family, but no matter what the situations are within the family, love is usaully a important part. A close bond between two people can begin with a friendship. Whether it is a friendship between two guys, two girls, or one male and one female, these friendships will develop into love. It is not romantic love , but this type of love still connects people. Friends...

...This is Admiral Bishop, Minister and Theologian from Planet X on the outskirts of the Milky Way galaxy. I have been commissioned by officials on my home planet with traveling to earth to study the religions of that world. On my planet, religion is a way for our government to control the citizens of our world. Our religion requires total submission to the government and leaders of the planet. We want to know if earth has a similar system in place and it is my responsibility to examine behaviors and beliefs there, determine the function of religion on the planet, and report back to those who have sent me. I am going to be looking for behaviors from the earthlings such as belief in a creator or creators of their race. The citizens of Planet X believe that our world was created by beings called Zenids. The story we have given our people says that the Zenids came from another world to Planet X when it was uninhabited and spawned life there. Our leaders beleive that life on our planet was a result of natural phenomena and evolution. I will be looking for a similar belief in higher power on earth. The citizens of Planet X pray to the Zenids and adhere to the scriptures handed down to them that detail the story of creation and the laws that the Zenids require our people to follow. To us, religion is the belief in higher power, prayer to this higher power, and belief in scriptures handed down by the higher power or through those inspired by the higher power. As I...

Overdetermining - project managers sometimes overstates their capabilities of comleting a project on time. That is when a project will take say two months to accomplish they use presure or lack of experience or presure to perform even the other factors that ignores reality for something that is not imporsimble to accomples in the time given. When everyone is not available at the same time to work as a team on the project this could cause a delay to finish and deliver the project on time. The trade offs that is to make a clear policy of communication from the begining of the project that nobody goes off course and that everyone have to work as a team and must be on the sameline with everyone on the team. The project head must make him or herself available at all time to make sure that all the policys are met by everyone in the group. Handster inc. 1.

...may not necessary members of the family unit. The issue of single parenting or two-parent parenting is brought forth as a way to show how different children are raised with and without a father. The major issue put forth in this debate is directly related to the premise that a father may or may not fulfill a unique gender role in the family that the mother may not possess. These are the important aspects of “What are Father’s For?” which examine the necessity of the father as child-bearers in the modern-day family unit. Summary of the Debate: The first side of the debate on the necessity of father’s is based on the gender essentialist view that the father and mother have unique roles in the family when raising their children.

...perception of success of such interactions will be dependent on employees "who can adjust themselves to the personality of the guest," according to 3Micah Solomon. From the point of view of an overall sales process engineering effort, customer service plays an important role in an organization's ability to generate income and revenue. From the perspective, customer service should be included as part of an overall approach to the systematic improvement. A customer service experience can change the entire perception a customer has of the organization. Some had argued that the quality and level of customer service has decreased in recent years, and that this can be attributed to a lack of support or understanding at the executive and middle management levels of a corporation and/or a customer service policy. To address this arguement, many organizations have employed a variety of methods...

...I think the washington Redskins should change their name because it is offensive, the name has been a hot topic for quite some time, and they could easily change the name to something else. Redskins is a term used by europeans when they first came to the new world. The word was used a reference to the indians darker sometimes reddish tinted skin. The Redskins team name didn't just become a hot topic it's been a hot topic for 31 years. Since 1972 people have been saying how offensive the name is to the native americans. The Redskins may lose the rights to their mascot, and will not have any new stadiums built for the team until the name is changed. Other teams have also changed their names, and it has not change how the fans see them or their profit from the games. The Redskins should change their name because it is the right thing to do if native american beleive the name of a team that represents them should be changed then who are we to say no. “Redskins can't possibly honor a heritage or noble character trait, nor can it possibly be considered a neutral term. It's an insult, a slur, no matter how benign the present day intent.” said Bob Costas, NBC sports host. The term redskin is originally used to refer the native...

Although it may not be, I beleive music is the answer to all my life problems as it has been there throughout my whole life. I feel I can always depend on good music. I first fell in love with music when I was a young girl . I remember listening to "The Little Mermaid" soundtrack over and over on my pink walkman. Just the lyrics and melody took me to another place . Ever since then, music has been a huge part of my life. I listen to everything from 2Pac , Nas , Lil Wayne and Jay Z (Rap) Aaliyah, RKelly, Mary J Blige and Alicia Keyz (R&B) The Police, Metallica, AC/DC, Journey and U2 ( Pop/Rock) and my favorite Oldies from The Gap Band, Chacka Khan, The O'Jays, Aretha Franklin, The Chi-Lites, The Spinners oh' sheesh' the list goes on.

...While the Athenians were very succesful in their mission slowly The Athenian attitudes changes about the Polies in the league. Instead of being a protector and a help slowly their attitude changed to more of a tyrannical rule of the Polies. The Demise: The Athenians were actually considering themselves ruler of the other city states, according to(Harding, 2013). This was especially true are the treasury was moved from Delos to Athens. Of course with control over the money, and more money to support the navy Athens was able to flourish and many of the great Grecian buildings were built including the Parthenon. However, under the heavy handed rule, the other Poleis were unhappy with this poor treatment and consequently discord. When the Peloponnesian War began, it was the beginning of the end. This was proved to last more than 30 years and hardly a family remained unscathed, the vast destruction and blood shed took it toll and at the end of the war the Delian League dissolved. The...
