This app includes the latest first aid advice and protocols for dealing with emergency situations. It is simple to follow with illustrated guides and voiced instructions.
The app doesn't replace the benefits of learning first aid on a St John Ambulance course, nor is it as in depth as a full first aid manual. But when there is an emergency, it will help you to know what to do to in those few crucial moments when basic knowledge of first aid can make the difference.
Nothing is more tragic than a life lost needlessly. You can be the difference between life and death.
Please note: The first aid advice is based solely upon UK protocols. Both the UK and European emergency service numbers are provided.

First Aid
This First Aid manual, which is published by the U.S. Army, meets the emergency medical training needs of individual soldiers. Because medical personnel will not always be readily available, the nonmedical soldiers will have to rely heavily on their own skills and knowledge of life-sustaining methods to survive on the integrated battlefield. This manual also addresses first aid measures for other life- threatening situations. It outlines both self-treatment (self-aid) and aid to other soldiers (buddy aid). More importantly, this manual emphasizes prompt and effective action in sustaining life and preventing or minimizing further suffering. First aid is the emergency care given to the sick, injured, or wounded before being treated by medical personnel.
*** This application is completely based on the United States Army First Aid Field Manual FM 21-11. ***

First Aid Kit
This application First Aid Kit is for creating awareness for the people who stuck with accidents and other common medical difficulties like Asthma, Unconsciousness, diabetics, Snake Bites, Road Accident, Burns, Fracture, Heart attack, Poisoning, Eye Injuries.
First Aid Manual 2013
There are many programs to learn basic first aid taught by schools, Fire Departments, hospitals, and community organizations that are a great tool for everyone.
First Aid is usually administered under the premise of immediate care for an illness or injury. Members of the general public are taught to administer this care until the arrival of qualified medical personnel at the scene of a medical emergency.
While external first aid training courses have their supporters, there are strong arguments in support of managed on-site first aid training, because it can be tailored to suit the industry, location and the First Aider student.
Alsco Training (Alscotraining.com.au) says on-site trainers can assess the likely skills needed by the First Aider trainee. This assessment can lead to more job or site-specific training because of the increased risk of, for example, industrial accidents.
The on-site trainer also can inspect first aid kits and ensure there are enough kits for the number of employees at the facility and that their contents are appropriate for the business.
But regardless of where and how first aid training is provided, it is important to understand that not all courses are the same.

Palliative or Hospice care?
My husband's Neurologist has been treating his MS since 1998. He suggested I look into Palliative care for hubby. He's declined/ disease has progressed a lot recently. He stays in bed all the time, gets up occasionally to use the commode. He's also depressed and has Alzheimers-like symptoms. Lately he's even having trouble chewing and swallowing. I have a CNA care aide who comes in three days a week to shower him. He's been getting angrier and angrier with her. He says he "hates" me because I'm "mean" to him. Yeah, I insist he change his adult diaper regularly. Has anyone dealt with Palliative care? Do you recommend it? Hubby says he won't see anyone, he's not going to die...
I am late seeing this question, but in case anyone else is wondering: Palliative care, the focus is maintaining comfort, relieving symptoms, improving quality of life and is not just for terminal states. Sometimes these specialists can help with chronic illness that isn't terminal ( or won't be for some time yet). So I hope that you contacted them, Jannie, and were able to get some help.
It philosophically overlaps with hospice. Hospice also wants to maintain comfort, relieve symptoms, and improve quality of life -- geared more for people who are approaching death, though. Hospice doesn't necessarily mean no treatment, but it does recognize that the goal of treatments is not cure but comfort and preventing complications as much as possible. For example, my mother was in hospice care in the nursing home, which meant that she had an RN visit her weekly, an extra aide come to give her personal care, access to assistive devices, overall just more attention than she would have gotten. She was kept on her blood pressure medicines and given symptomatic treatment for colds, cough, etc; but we would not have taken her to the hospital or had resuscitation attempted (as I see some families of hospice patients do, asking to have "everything done" for a person who is going to die regardless)
Hope that helps a little.

Blue Bomber Report Record: 7–11–0
Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Very rough night for Blue
Formerly 3-0 team completely outplayed by Eskimos
You knew it was going to be a long, hard night for the Winnipeg Blue Bombers when their punter, of all people, got hurt. In the pre-game warm-up.
In a charmed season which, until Thursday night, had seen just about everything break Winnipeg's way in compiling a 3-0 start to their season, it was opposite night at Investors Group Field as the Bombers fumbled and bumbled their way to their first loss of the 2014 CFL season, 26-3 to the Edmonton Eskimos.
What was billed coming in as a first-place battle between two West Division heavyweights proved to be a walkover instead for an Edmonton squad who left no doubt as to who is the better team right now, improving to 4-0 while the Bombers fell to 3-1.
And it wasn't even so much Edmonton was that good; it was just Winnipeg was that bad.
The Bombers' tackling was atrocious. And so was their clock management to end the first half.
Then there was a Winnipeg offence that didn't record a first down until just 2:37 remained in the first half.
The Winnipeg special teams were -- once again -- a series of misadventures.
The dumb penalties -- which Winnipeg got away with during the first three weeks of the season -- proved costly on this night. And so too did the two Winnipeg turnovers.
Heck, the Bombers even had a 44-yard field goal attempt at the end of the third quarter clang off the right upright.
Put it together and you had a Bombers team on the field at IGF that looked a lot more like the jokers that put up a league-worst 3-15 record last year than the early-season juggernaut that until Thursday had proven unbeatable.
Dude, where's the offence?
A Bombers' offence which led the CFL in scoring coming in, with an eye-popping average of 38.3 points per game, struggled mightily to get anything going on the ground or through the air against an Edmonton defence that was the stingiest in the league coming into the game -- and leaving it
Bombers starting QB Drew Willy had just four yards passing in the first quarter and just 94 yards in the first half -- more than half of that coming on one 50-yard completion to Clarence Denmark near the end of the half. That play resulted in the lone Bombers' scoring of the game, a 22-yard field goal by place-kicker Lirim Hajrullahu -- who did double duty as Winnipeg's punter after Mike Renaud pulled a hamstring in the warmup.
By night's end, Willy was just 13-26 for 169 yards and one interception and the Bombers registered just 198 yards of total offence against 352 total yards for Edmonton.
A silver lining?
While both the Winnipeg offence and special teams struggled, the Bombers defence was at least serviceable -- but only if you could overlook what at one point in the first half seemed to be multiple missed tackles on virtually every play.
While there's never a good excuse for sloppy tackling, the Winnipeg defence had at least a good explanation on a night that saw them on the field for over 20 of the game's first 30 minutes. The final time of possession wasn't even close -- 38:26 for Edmonton, 21:34 for Winnipeg.
Still, the Bombers got good pressure on Edmonton QB Mike Reilly for most of the night, recording four sacks -- two by Zach Anderson. Plus, they forced a turnover and at least kept Winnipeg in the game until the levee broke in the fourth quarter.
It wasn't much, but it was as good as it got for the Bombers on this night.

If you've got yourself a big corporation in need of some muckety-mucks to sit on the board of directors, take it from us: You don't want Irvine O. Hockaday Jr. The dude's got some kind of boardroom curse.
Just the same, the 70-year-old Hockaday sits on a lot of boards. A resident of Mission Hills and a former CEO of Hallmark, Hockaday is a director of Ford, Aquila, Crown Media Holdings, Sprint Nextel and Estée Lauder. In 2007, he retired from the board of Dow Jones & Co.
Investors would have been wise to steer clear of the companies that sought Hockaday's wisdom. Half the companies lost value, while two of the three corporations with "up" arrows failed to keep up with inflation, dealing a blow to executives with fancy initials everywhere. During Hockaday's dark days as a serial board sitter came Aquila's Enron-style meltdown and the firing of Sprint executives who used dubious tax shelters.
Recently, Wall Street analysts called for the heads of four directors of Sprint Nextel, the embattled wireless carrier based in Overland Park. Pali Research analysts Walter Piecyk and Joseph Galone demanded a "fresh and more qualified set of eyes" in a note to shareholders. As you might've guessed, among those whom the analysts suggested should be canned was none other than Irvine O. Hockaday Jr.
Below, the Department of Burnt Ends has charted the success — or lack thereof — of the companies connected to Hockaday. Way to go, Irv.

Toro 22" grinding
My Toro 22" self propel started making a grinding noise today. After seeing a youtube video, I looked at the self propel cable, and it had a lot of slack at the top. So, I loosened the bolt holding the self propel cable. The video said to tighten up the slack, but when I did this, the grinding GOT WORSE. However, when I LOOSENED the slack even more, the grinding stopped....but so did the self-propel function. I cannot find a happy medium in the cable. Tight cable means self propelling, but the grinding is loud. Loose cable means self propel stops working, but the grinding stops. Any advice?
Most gear cases like yours use spider gears. When they develop a gap where the gears on longer mesh correctly, they start to grind the tops of the gear teeth off. Shimming them will bring the teeth back together and restore the operation. It's easy to do with some shim washers.
You have to remove the pulley and open up the case from the bottom.
That is most likely what's happening to you.
Try lifting the wheels off the ground and see if it's quiet.

yeah thats my next plan, unfortunately shes not home but will do this as soon as she is.
verify your grandmothers settings on her router, check the IP on her computer and see if she can get out. then check your settings.
haha could be the first one. Definitely not the second! haha she can get to facebook thats about it! I've seen her type google into google! rofl!
It could be her router crapped out, some third party routers do that and are fine after a reboot. Or perhaps your gran enabled mac filtering
Posted 30 December 2012 - 18:52
I've seen her type google into google!
Posted 30 December 2012 - 19:12
No still no change
Heh I think that's a trait with old people. To come to think of it, you're right if mac filtering was enabled, you wouldn't be able to connect to the network. Try the following commands in elevated command prompt:
Then disable your wired adapter if you are wired leaving only the wireless adapter enabled enter these in command prompt:
Now connect to her network after and see if there's any change:
Thats a great idea I will definitely do that in the future
setup remote access like teamviewer or logmein free so that you can troubleshoot when she isn't home.
Posted 30 December 2012 - 19:40
Hmm that's odd. Does your gran have an ADSL or Cable connection?
Posted 30 December 2012 - 19:49
afraid not, once I manually set IP, the network ID comes up (rather than unidentified network) and I can ping 192.168.1.1 but can't visit in browser
Is it possible to sign into the router and check logs? I know with mine there is an option (though depending on the modem) this sometimes can only be checked when connected directly to it.
That may shed some light - on what is going on.

Finding Help
If arranging for all this kind of relief still seems like something for other people, keep in mind that you can always send the people you've scheduled away if it turns out you don't need them, advises Nicole Zickler, a Seattle mom. "You don't know what will happen in delivery," says Zickler. "We prepared as if we would need a lot of help, telling the people we asked to come that we might end up sending them home."
Her daughter's birth went smoothly, but Zickler says she was glad to have her mom and dad with her, regardless. "During the first week, my mom would ask, 'Are you ready for me to go?,' and I'd say, 'No, please don't ever leave me!'" Zickler admits she was especially lucky when it came to her parents being there: Her mother had had four children and is a nurse, and her dad is an emergency-room physician. Perhaps more important, she says, both of her parents are instinctive caregivers, nurturing but not overprotective, and intuitive about what needs to be done. "She would make the beds and do the laundry and answer the phone without my even being aware of it," says Zickler.
In fact, the intensity of household needs during the first few weeks can often turn family and friends -- even ones who may drive you a little crazy ordinarily -- into tremendous helpers. Moms and mothers-in-law have been through childbirth, and they automatically love the baby, often making them ideal choices. But if that isn't the case or they aren't available, Nicol says it is important for you to to look for caregivers who will keep your interests top of mind. Be certain not to make the easy mistake of allowing people into your home whom you typically have to care for or entertain.
Friends with whom you are especially close may be the best choice, even if they have little baby experience, since you'll feel more comfortable telling them how you feel, and they'll instinctively know more of what you need without your asking. Besides, from walking the now-ignored dog to putting a meal on the table or picking up duplicate photos, there is definitely more than enough non-baby-related work to be done.
If there is no one near you or available whom you feel comfortable asking for in-home postpartum help, be aggressive about hiring the assistance you think you'll need. Many birthing centers, nursing agencies, and hospitals can now refer women to baby nurses or postpartum doulas. Baby nurses (who are not usually medical nurses) can live in and are available, in shifts, up to 24 hours a day. They specialize in newborn care and allow a new mother to sleep.
Postpartum doulas focus on making sure a new mom is comfortable caring for her baby, all the while emphasizing mother care. Both are expensive -- nurses from $20 to $30 an hour and postpartum doulas from $10 to $40 an hour -- but are worth saving up for if this is the type of help you'll need. Leah McNeill, a new mom, midwife, and part owner of the Puget Sound Midwives and Birth Center, in Kirkland, Washington, opted for doula help after the birth of her son, Eric, to cover the times when her mother couldn't be there. McNeill says she used her doula nearly every day in the beginning, then three times a week for a few hours in the afternoon and evening. "I'm a single mom," explains McNeill, "and having her around let me take a nap or a shower."

Covenant House is often the last buffer between homeless kids and fulfillment of their high at-risk status for predators. Covenant House's advocacy for homeless kids is most evident in their tremendous outreach program and they fill in the gap that families, schools and government agencies cannot begin to complete...the kid's emotional need for love and protection and a promise that though these kids may have nothing, they are indeed important and can rise above street life and its material limitations to become productive, faithful and conscientious members of society. They offer hope to those who have none.

In the past I've attended their "Deck The Halls" Event. I helped decorate the shelter s well as wrap Xmas gifts donated to the residents. I'm looking forward to doing it again this year as I enjoyed volunteering their. The kids seem to enjoy the atmosphere there and that's something that I can support!

So I volunteer at Covenant House. I'm a active duty military member that has served over +10 years. I've two degrees. I'm not an idiot. Copy all, on the salaries...thought however. If this non-profit has survived as long as it has, do you want to pay a good leader to stay there? Or should they be selfless and work modestly? I dunno. That's above my pay grade but I'd be willing to hear both sides of the argument a bit more.
I have a comment on those complaining about all the stuff the Covenant House sends to people. You may not be homeless--but you may know someone who is. Or you may know someone who knows someone who is. Also you may donate to the organization. Free food, free laundry, free clothes, free job search, free resume building, free medical (location dependent). And they still have to pay salaries, benefits, upkeep, etc. I can say the key to fund raising is connections and social networks....from what I've seen anyway. Again I may be full of it and none of you may believe me but guess what I'll doing most weeks? I'll be out in the city every Friday night handing out covenant house sunscreen, chapstick, business cards, wrist bands along with snacks and water just to let boys know they don't have to get beat and girls that don't deserve to be touched at night.
Again maybe I'm wearing rose colored sunglasses. But I see more good than bad.
Ways to make it better...
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
The turn over rate with staff is high. I think they could be more effective if they could retain their staff long term. I have no idea how to do this though. The military takes care of us pretty good. The covenant house I fear doesn't have the same resources.
More feedback...
Would you volunteer for this group again?
For the time you spent, how much of an impact did you feel your work or activity had?
Did the organization use your time wisely?
Very Well
Would you recommend this group to a friend?
When was your last experience with this nonprofit?

Covenant House is an excellent organization working with disadvantaged youths throughout North and Central America. I got to know it very well when I was a volunteer for their NINE-LINE - a hotline for youths at risk -(800-999-9999). Definitely, a donation worthy organization.

It depends though, a secret DVD release of one of these stories would still have to be available publicly for clearance purposes - so they would have to announce it anyway ahead of time.
They would never get a DVD in the shops secretly, because there's no way that retailers wouldn't leak the information that there's (to pick one) "Evil of the Daleks" going on the shelves on such-and-such a date. Long before you reached that point, 2|Entertain would have to produce sales sheets for the buyers at the stores to use so they would know what they're buying and stocking. No retailer is going to stock something blind, especially if they're not even told what it is. In short, way too many people would know, and you couldn't NDA the buyers in every retail establishment in Britain.
About the best the BBC could do would be to announce, a month out, that in a month's time "Evil" will go on sale in a 2-disc set and, that same day, send it for clearance. That's the absolutely best they could do.
That answers my question - they would likely do an announcement in October then.

On Your Cellphone At The Movies? Watch For Ninjas
Originally published on Fri September 14, 2012 11:43 am
By editor
Good morning. I'm Steve Inskeep. You've heard warnings to turn off your cell phone at the movies. If you disobey in London, you may be attacked by ninjas. The Prince Charles Cinema is shushing patrons using people in skin-tight body suits. If you're talking on the phone, a ninja will appear out of the darkness to shut you down, though we do not know if they have a license to kill. The ninjas, by the way, are not paid. They are people who volunteer to get to watch the movie while in costume. You're listening to MORNING EDITION. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright National Public Radio.

A remarkable Swiss window technology has just recently been introduced in North America. GlassX windows are super high-efficiency windows that use several technologies to make them possibly the most high-tech windows available. First of all, GlassX windows have a prismatic plane that deflects high-angle sunlight in the summertime, rather than transmitting it, to keep the building cool. Lower-angle winter light is transmitted through this layer, and even more interestingly, these windows incorporate a phase-change material (PCM) between two of the panes of glass. Polycarbonate spacers used between the panes to segregate the PCM give the windows a venetian blind appearance.
Windows are the weak point of almost any building for thermal control. However these GlassX windows serve to alleviate many of the problems found in conventional windows. The PCM material stores heat by melting, and then radiates it back into the space at night, as the material cools and re-solidifies. As a solid, the PCM still transmits about 25% of the visible light, and more than 40% is transmitted when the PCM is in its liquid state, so daylighting is not compromised.
Given that they are so high-tech, GlassX windows are very expensive — they weigh in at $60-90 per square foot. However the company states that the payback period on these windows is expected to be only 5 to 10 years. With all the layers involved, the thickness of the windows is another obstacle, but not one that cannot be overcome to produce some attractive and energy efficient designs.

listen in Stereo, headphones work best
Video by Laurens Roorda and Thijs Molenaar (TheVideomatic.nl)
Mix & mastering: Sandor Caron of Knalpot. Sandor mixed my sound FOH and slightly mixed/mastered the audio-recording from these 3 HD cameras. The proper audio-recording crashed unfortunately but the camera sound is pretty ok
This is an excerpt of a solo concert i played on 14dec 2012 in Muziekgebouw aan't Ij, Amsterdam. I had the honour to open for Ben Frost's Music for 6 guitars (which I enjoyed a lot playing with straight after my show, hence quick change-over). Before me Seth Josel performed Morton Feldman's "Possibilty for a new work for electric guitar", which did set a great mood. This was a "Listen to This" night organized by Muziekgebouw aan't Ij and also part of the Amsterdam Electric Guitar Heaven Festival.
This is an excerpt from an open form piece called 'A sphere for Albert Sutter, Wolfgang Vanoli and Rudy Lisapaly'. It is dedicated to my 'three' grand-fathers, they passed away within a short period of time in spring 2012.
This was the 5th time I used this set-up live. Everything you hear is created live on stage with a heavily boosted fender stratocaster (to make microscopic sounds and extended techniques like blowing on the strings, singing on strings, scraping, bashing on different parts of the instrument more audible). I had to take my whole Knalpot EFX set-up on stage since i needed it for a Knalpot concert the next day, I had no time to prepare a smaller set-up... What i used pedal-wise wasn't much: booster --> volume pedal --> EH Freeze --> a Boss DD6 (for occasional mini-loops) --> Line6 DL4 (for looping). All this runs into a 6-way-ampswitcher built by Foppe Talman. It's an ingenious switcher I dreamt about for a long time and Foppe made that dream come true (He's my man!) This time i used it to switch between 3 tiny/lofi crappy mini amps and 3 big/hifi tube amps that are placed all over that big stage (On the little foto here you don't see all my amps, it's Frost's backline). If you listen in stereo at some parts you can really here the placement of the amps and there's a lot happening with frequencies. Foppe and I will be working on an updated version of the switcher that will allow combinations of amps. For the moment I can only use one amp at a time plus eventually a bassamp which is accessed through a splitterand placed in center, can add it any time with an A/B-box. one RC20 for looping is right before the bassamp. Split-out from DL4 goes to a Bug Brand PT delay --> another DL4 (for looping dubs) --> to PA. Actually this is a handluggage set-up if a venue provides 7 amplifiers. Hope you like the music - all my best, Raphael

Great piece for your kitchen!
Ready to measure the baking powder now. :)
Hey Fran, Ooooooooooooo….bake some cookies!!! :)

I can appreciate the "vintage" only by the fact that Barbara, my wife, sat out to replace her old metal ones (which are really beat up looking) only to find plastic ones. Nice painting Linda.

"I ordered these invitations for my daughters baby shower. She wanted to start a library for the baby and it was already on invitation. I received a lot of compliments on the invitations. Sweet and simple."
"My order came as promised on two day delivery. Adorable design and high quality paper. Some guests have commented on how cute and nice the invites are. I went with the pearlized finish and rounded edges. so glad I did! makes invites look custom done. This quality product is exactly what I expected having seen tiny prints products before."
"This card is even more beautiful in person! Perfect for a Baby Girl Shower! They were on the printer the evening after I ordered them, & I ordered them on a Friday afternoon! I will definitely use Tiny Prints for all of my future card needs!"
"I loved the 1920's/Gatsby design but needed it to be for my Roaring 25th Birthday -- the Design Team really can make the card unique and beautiful FOR YOU. I went full Gatsby with the Pearl paper, Ticket trim, AND Antique Gold envelopes with the matching Address Labels!"
"I fell in love with this design when searching for woodland-inspired invitations for my sister's baby shower. Just so darling! Initially I had decided to go with the "smoke" version of the design because I feared that the white parts of the design would not show up as well on the pale pink (the website the pale pink card's details seem harder to see). BUT, I took a chance and went with the pink, and I'm so happy I did. BEAUTIFUL results! The images and text show up perfectly. The cards are nice and thick, the printing great quality. AND, the delivery was so fast, even though I chose standard shipping! I ordered these on the 18th, they were shipped on the 19th, and I received them on the 21st! Everything about this order was impressive!"

Taken in Madera Canyon March 2010 with a Canon Powershot SX10IS
One of the most variable of all American birds, Dark-eyes Junco is a familiar sparrow across the continent, rare only in subtropical areas of Florida and Texas.
Dark-eyed nests in a wide variety of forest habitats, usually coniferous or mixed woodlands that have open ground for foraging; its pleasant, trilling song echos into midday.
This species' tolerance for harsh weather allows it to return to nesting areas early and to leave highland and boreal habitats later than most species.
Red-backed Junco is one of Six different subspecies (called "types") of Dark-eye Junco that breed in North America. They are similar to Gray-headed, nests and winters in the mountains of Central Arizona and New Mexico and also winters in western Texas.
VOICE Song of all types a rich trill on one pitch, like Chipping Sparrow but not so dry. Call a short, flat thtp, similar to a hummingbird call.
excellent shot Kimberly, would love to see one of these
Thank you Michael. There was a dark headed subspecies out there as well but too far for my lens to get a clear shot. He was gorgeous!

The staff is friendly. The food tasty. The entertainment was lots of fun. Great local place to visit!
I used to hang out at Chatties when I came on the island. Went there this year and was shocked at how it's changed and how horrible it is. It use to be a small island feel, not it's more of a yuppy place that is more part of the resturant than a bar/club to hang out at. Was very...
Centrally located. They had a salad bar and Italian buffet. I ordered the Haddock. Food is very good with large portions. If you are looking for atmosphere this isn't your place...but if you are looking for friendly staff and very good food this IS your place

Until then, you have Chattie's. 2 beers on tap, neither local. Judging by the crowds we...
We had a great dinner here and everything was great! I had the seafood platter and i enjoyed everything it had! Great food, and the waitress we had was really nice and friendly! Highly recommend going here on your next vacation!
Actually, there isn't much nightlife going on around this quite little island. But Chattie's is the only bar open until 2 am. The staff was friendly and the crowd and DJ was cool.
Every time I visit the island I must go to chatties. The food is excellent. Love watching the sunset over the bay. The waitresses are pretty good too. I am mainly writing to express my gratitude to the bouncer david. A few of my friends went with me on Sunday for the shrimp and clams. The bartender couldn't handle the...
Great food, fast service. Varied menu. Helpful staff. Seated our party of 8 quickly. Nice to the kids. A gem in the middle of a cut-rate seedy destination.
We ate at the bar upstairs and enjoyed the view over Main Street while eating the freshest oysters and sweetest steamed shrimp - great "local" atmosphere!
Three years have passed since my last experience here, maybe I came back to soon. Everyplace else was closed so thought we would give it a shot, will just skip it next time. My memories were of a stinking smoky smelling place, and with the smoke spot being right outside the door, it was still pretty much the same with...

Technology analysts improve and maintain an enterprise's information technology system. They are tasked with examining the function of computer systems, identifying problems and areas for improvement in execution, and designing solutions. This may involve the development of new software solutions, the implementation of new hardware, testing to maximize function and compatibility, and a constant monitoring of systems to address issues as they arise and ensure smooth, consistent operations.Read More...
Information technology on the enterprise level involves a vast and ever-expanding array of systems and functions. Therefore, technology analysts may either be assigned to specific tasks, such as network maintenance or database administration, or a general role in which they or their team handles all tasks. As even a dedicated role will often overlap with other areas of the enterprise's information technology (IT) enterprise, a knowledge of all organizational IT roles is preferred for most applicants. Information analysts require superior analytic abilities, attention to detail, and the ability to solve problems in a timely manner.
Employers usually require applicants to have at least a bachelor's degree in information science, with certain sectors also preferring some emphasis in related fields such as engineering. A master's degree is highly preferred by all employers and required by some. The information analyst likely works predominantly onsite in an office environment. A technology analyst may be assigned shifts; however, the highly sensitive nature of information technology jobs means that hours may be long and shifts variable.
Heading up the field in terms of compensation, Bank of America Corp. (BOFA) offers the most; Technology Analysts earn $88K on average there.
The lowest salaries can be found at J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. (JPMCC) — median pay is $62K — and there is little variation in compensation, with paychecks starting at $53K and only reaching $76K.
Survey respondents exploit a significant toolbox of skills in their work. Most notably, skills in Technical Analysis, Java/J2EE, Cascading Style Sheets, and .NET are correlated to pay that is above average, with boosts between 12 percent and 14 percent. Those listing Information Technology Support as a skill should be prepared for drastically lower pay. Object Oriented Programming and Microsoft Excel also typically command lower compensation. Those with knowledge of Java tend to be skilled in SQL as well.

Composting newbie needs help
I just starting composting about three weeks ago. THE BUGS! AGH!! and it smells a bit. I am adding brown matter in the form of leaves, paper towel rolls. The only foodstuffs I add are what my family doesn't eat from fruits and veggies and egg shells. I turn the pile at least once a week. Please help. Thank You.
Sorry to hear of this on your first attempt,composting is supposed to be relaxing. I hope you can get things fixed so you don't become disgusted and give up. We need new blood in this group,some of us old timers have become boring.
Bugs are often present but do no harm. Having bad odors isn't so common nor nessary and can be a sign of problems. Think about things you have included,would any of them stink if left on the kitchen counter? Most likly the material is too wet in combination with hot weather. You will often see people instruct keeping material wet enough to wring water from like a spounge. That's much to wet. As long as you detect moisture throughout the bin that's plenty. If that makes you think it's too wet,add dry browns and turn every day until odor deminishes then go back to once a week.
Insects are part of the process and that's why we don't compost right under the kitchen window. But if you have a lot of flies, maggots, etc. the pile needs some adjustment.
Re: watering, the 'sponge' thing is supposed to be 'damp like a *wrung out* sponge', not soaking wet so you can squeeze water out of it like a saturated sponge.
No need to turn weekly unless you are in a big hurry for compost.
Do you have a pile or some sort of bin?
I'm thinking you need more browns and maybe less watering for awhile and see how it responds.
