Research by Ingrid Nelson (2010) introduced a very new and interesting method that could be used when conducting qualitative research which is the life history calendar (LHC). The article focused on giving the reader understanding of such method. Traditionally, it has been used for large-scale quantitative studies focusing on longitudinal studies, but semi-structured LHC allows participants to give their narratives and build rapport with the researcher (Nelson 2010). According to Nelson (2010),…
Large Scale Ambition While Vanguard recognizes the importance of robust analytics, none of the company’s key initiatives have been centered on analytical capabilities. Still, as a largely virtual company (retail clients are rarely given the occasion to meet with representatives face-to-face) the opportunity is obvious. However, Vanguard remains committed to meeting client needs through more traditional means like expanding call centers rather than turning certain business functions over to…

Over the past several years the popularity of Canadian data centers or also known as colocation facilities has been on the upswing. These colocation facilities located in Canada offer a number of key benefits such as; Climate, Infrastructure, Political Environment and Infrastructure. Our societies need to store and access data on the fly today has resulted in increased demand for added data center capacity and the hunt for the ideal environment to house such facilities. Toronto, Ontario - being…
transport layer and should be of a single numbering plan (also LAN and WAN) for data transfer. Four specific jobs performed by the Network layer: 1- Communication with the Transport layer Transport layer ensures reliable arrival of messages and offers error mechanisms and data flow control activities. The transport layer provides services for sending "free space", "connection-oriented" and emissions. For connection, transmission, transfer or destination, it can send packets that have to be…
Like most of the boys, I was deeply affected by the science fiction movies. Those High- Tech movies always raise my spirits. However, after years study in university, I have knowledge of how Engineering will allow me to see principles are applied and design the system. So, to fulfil my dream, electronic technology and renewable technology are the critical part of my plan. Base on the fundamental of electricity I learned in South China Agricultural University and Cardiff University, I can…
The development of advanced microscopes has enabled scientists to further their investigation on the criteria for life. As a result, biologists have been confronted with a baffling question: is there a size limit on life? If so, then just how small can something be before it can no longer be considered alive? Ever since the discovery of nano-sized particles called “nanobacteria” or “nanobes”, researchers have been scrambling to unravel and analyze the mysterious functions of these purported…
Aristotle’s virtue ethics, telos is the first and fundamental element to achieve happiness in human’s nature. In my own field, for example, if I get a chance to be a power electrical engineer fortunately, designing and creating more efficient and safer transmission and distribution circuits will be purpose and goal for me. Because if the goal is realized, it will contribute to developing our human society. In addition to a good telos, I also need to learn and train myself to be professional. For…
Transmission electron microscopy, or TEM, is a variation of low field, high-powered electron microscopy. Created by Ernest Ruska and Max Knoll of the Berlin Technische Hochschule in 1931, the invention of this novel microscope allowed for the surpassing of the visible light resolution barrier. Since its inception, the TEM has become a resolution standard in the field of imagery, and further advances have led to the progression of high quality atomic viewing. The development of the electron…
By Brigid Garrett , Wyatt Mullings, Jesus Sanchez, and Lydia Blaisdell Cable Sensation Russky Bridge, Vladivostok, Russia. What are Cable/Stayed Bridges? A cable/stayed bridge is a bridge that has two towers with cables supporting the bridge itself, as shown above. The towers are called pylon, the crossing area itself is called the roadway. The cables are obviously called cables. The supports underneath on the sides are called abutments, The foundations are located under the ground on the…
