In science, reporting what has been done in a laboratory setting is incredibly important for communicating, replicating, and validating findings.describe what occurred during the lab you conducted in Labster. However, writing scientific reports can be a little overwhelming. There are a set of agreed upon components that the scientific community requires when reporting scientific research. Answer the following questions to describe what occurred during the lab you conducted in Labster. Be sure to use complete sentences and descriptions that fully represent what you experienced. Writing a lab report is less about being correct or incorrect than it is accurately reporting what happened and why. So, do not worry about reporting data that might seem counterintuitive or unexpected. Focus on clearly communicating what you did and what you observed.Write your answers on a new line.Describing what you did during a lab supports other scientists in replicating your work. It is through this consistent replication that scientists are able to see repeating patterns and develop ideas that help move science forward. When you discuss your observations, in a later section, you will have to describe, in detail, what you did. You may also have to describe what choices you made, why you made them, and any concerns about things that occurred that were unexpected. To have enough information to do this, you need to keep very detailed notes. What doesnt seem important in the moment may end up being something that explains your findings later. A benefit of conducting virtual labs when learning science is that many potential errors are controlled for you. The virtual lab environment often will alert you if something is not going the way it should. This does not occur in non-virtual settings. The virtual lab setting can be very helpful to learners for this reason. However, we still need to practice documenting so those skills are practiced for the lab experiences when technology will not be there as a coach.Many lessons learned from scientific research come from the reporting and analysis of data and observations. This part of scientific reporting requires detailed descriptions of technical information and observations, as well as high-level synthesis of information. High-level synthesis requires a mastery of foundational content in the related scientific field and a complementary mastery in some field of quantitative and/or qualitative analysis. For this report, lets focus on big picture patterns. The discussion section is used to explain why things might have happened the way they did in your research. Here, scientists describe any potential anomalies or mistakes and why they think they may have occurred. The conclusion section of a lab report describes how the learnings from the lab research fit in to prior scientific knowledge. This is done by comparing new information to previously known information that was identified in the section of your report that discusses background information.

Write about an issue that is important to you, to your community, or to Americans in general. You will investigate the ways the government has or has not addressed your selected issue.
Government in My Community ASSIGNMENT: For this assignment, you will write about an issue that is important to you, to your community, or to Americans in general. You will investigate the ways the government has or has not addressed your selected issue. As part of your research, you will choose at least five articles from newspapers, magazines, or other online sources that highlight the government’s response to the issue. You will then identify and analyze the government’s response and provide a personal reflection on the impact. In doing so, you will deepen your engagement with course content by applying what youve learned in Units 1 and 2 about the U.S. federal system and the division of powers among and between the different layers of government. To complete the assignment, download the Government in My Community template, and follow the directions below. You will return the completed template as your Touchstone submission. Government in My Community Template Example Government in My Community Submission (PDF) Step 1: Select an issue that is important to you, to your community, or to Americans in general. Your community could be your geographical community (e.g., your neighborhood, town, or city), a community of people with shared characteristics with whom you identify, or the broader state or national community. You can choose any issue, but here are some ideas to get you started: immigration; border security; public school policy; public safety; gun rights or gun control; victim rights; student testing; school choice; abortion; access to public transportation or city services; energy, environment, conservation, or economic issues; healthcare (cost of medicines or health insurance, health care access); homelessness; the death penalty. Step 2: Find and read at least five articles from newspapers, magazines, or other online sources that highlight the government’s response to the issue. It is important that your articles do not only describe the issue or present opinions on the issue from general members of the public. Look for sources that communicate how government officials have responded or are responding to the issue. You will be asked to identify government officials by name in your articles. Ideas for sources include news articles; speeches from political candidates or current office holders; campaign ads; press releases; and data collected from non-profit organizations, among others. The website www.usa.gov can be a good starting point for learning about government responses to various issues. Other online sources for information about government policy and services could include (but are not limited to):Step 3: After completing your research and reflecting on what youve learned, fill out the Government in My Community template. You will respond to the following prompts: Step 4:

A firms financial statements provide a visual representation of the business to stakeholders inside and outside the firm. Analyzing the financial statements helps managers carry out several important tasks.How would you go about evaluating your personal financial statement?
Directions: class discussion and a classmate response A firms financial statements provide a visual representation of the business to stakeholders inside and outside the firm. Analyzing the financial statements helps managers carry out several important tasks.Initial PostThink about how you would do budget planning and figuring out your net worth, and share your approach. How would you go about evaluating your personal financial statement? You may look at your bank and credit card statements. What else would you look at and why? What information can you glean from the statements? How do you budget? Important note: do not share your personal information, just your methodology.Reply PostRespond to one classmates post. Comment on your classmates budget planning process. What is something new you learned that you could apply to your situation? Offer a suggestion or practice you use to improve the process.8/22/23, 8:02 PM Net WorthI would consider personal net worth as if I were to leave this earth tomorrow, what would my family be left with? Since my daughter was born, I have tried to ensure that my 401K, life insurance, and savings would cover my debts and burial expenses and leave her with some extra to cover her schooling or start her own investments. When looking at my bank statements, savings would all be considered an asset. My checking would still be an asset only you have to subtract any outstanding debts that may have been authorized prior to the period but not actually withdrawn. Credit cards I do not consider an asset, while they have value and purchase power to me now if something happens to me; the debt would need to be paid and the credit available does not pass onto my family. BudgetMy family budgets monthly and for big-ticket items such as Christmas or vacation. The biggest thing that helped me keep to a budget, is breaking out household expenses such as soap, shampoo and cleaning supplies from groceries. When shopping in person in big retail stores such as Wal-Mart it’s easier to combine the two budgets. What I like to do is use the app for pick-up. That way I can add all of my “groceries” to the cart and get my total, then add all my household items. I take the total minus my groceries, and I get what I then spent on household items. Another way the app helps me stick to a budget is I meal plan every week. I go through the fridge and cabinets, so I only order the items I absolutely need. If I happen to exceed my grocery budget after adding all the needed items, I review my meal plan. I then substitute one of the higher-priced dinners with something more budget-friendly. Or change one of the meals to something I know we’ll have leftovers, like chili or stew; then, I don’t need to plan for as many meals.

What can you do to reduce data storage disk failure?
A) Business case: White & Bule Sky Airport Houston TX. As an IT Manager, you were tasked to improve the performance of the local White & Bule Sky Airport Passenger Processing system. This is to make the airport more efficient and more secure. There are three databases in the Airport Passenger Processing IT system:1-Passenger database will record and authenticate each passenger in the airport2-Employee database will record and authenticate each employee in the airport3-Flight database will record each flight in the airportAnswer the airport owners questions about this IT system:QUESTION 1. At the airport, there is a risk of data storage disk failure (fire, smoke, or flood) which will also damage the disk backup in the Airport IT system data center. What can you do to reduce data storage disk failure?QUESTION 2 It was decided to move Passenger Database to the cloud. How can you provide Security for the Passenger Database on the cloud?Here you should address the questionsa) Security Devices that access the Passenger Databaseb) Security of Passenger Data -at-restc) End user security. Where the user would be accessing the Passenger Database from the airport QUESTION 3 Assume that Passenger Database is already moved on the cloud side. And the airport already has fast and reliable network connections. If the cloud service provider devices fail to operate, then the Passenger Database would be not reachable (Loss of Control). That will have a huge impact on Airport operations. What would you do to Minimize Loss of Control, so the impact would be less?B) Business Case: Blue Sky AirportBlue Sky Airport is a small regional airport that serves a population of approximately 100,000 people. The airport has three databases: a passenger database, an employee database, and a flight database. The passenger database records and authenticates each passenger who passes through the airport, the employee database records and authenticates each employee who works at the airport, and the flight database records each flight that arrives or departs from the airport.The airport’s IT system is currently on-premises. This means that the databases and database management systems are located at the airport. The airport is considering migrating its IT system to the cloud.Benefits of Migrating to the CloudThere are several benefits to migrating Blue Sky Airport’s IT system to the cloud. These benefits include:Specific Privacy RequirementsThe airport has specific privacy requirements that must be met by the cloud service provider(s). These requirements include:Answer the airport owners questions about cloud migration.Question 1: When choosing a cloud service provider, there are a number of system requirements that you should look for. What would be the System Requirements that you look for in the cloud service provider?Question 2: You should protect the airport’s data before cloud migration. How would you protect your data before cloud migration?Here, You should consider the companys specific privacy requirementsQuestion 3: What are the Budget factors of the current data center before cloud migration?
