Resources needed
The resources needed to conduct adequate research revolve around data. First, a list of individuals with very similar backgrounds and socioeconomic statuses should be comprised. The list should also include those who have served time in the United States military. Software such as Microsoft excel, and PowerPoint will also be needed to articulate the results of the research while maintaining the overall database. In addition, easily accessible computers will be needed to record notes, adverse findings, or new breakthroughs in the overall research. A computer also provided an efficient means of information gathering when needed.
Surveys and evaluation forms will be needed to conduct the overall research in a through an unbiased manner. The surveys should not lead any of the participants to a desired answer or explanation. Equally important, facilitators must also be unbiased in their approach towards administering the survey. A core group of experienced facilitators will be needed to provide unbiased assessments. A room, free from extreme noise and distraction will also be needed to help facilitate the overall survey. Noise or distractions may skew the overall results of the research and provide inaccurate data.

CELCAT, though, is just one of dozens of vendors competing in the class scheduling software industry as well as many open sources options that are free of charge, and the thousands of colleges and universities that have undertaken the selection process have done so largely without the benefit of a set of best practices that can be used for this purpose. As a result, it is reasonable to suggest that
Women and the Information Technology Industry: Where is the Attraction? Opportunities in technology companies are fueling the economy, yet few women pursue them. A recent Pittsburgh Technology Council panel discussion revealed that there are many reasons for women's lack of interest in IT, as were personal priorities (Czetli, 2003).

Statement of the Problem For any individual, the death of a family member, friend, parent or sibling may often be overwhelming.

Corporate communications involves not just the message, but the idea that communications are managed, and are connected to corporate objectives (Cornelissen, 2004). Therefore, when communication possibilities were limited, corporate options were limited, and one did not see communications management perspectives that advocated the type of intimate connection between communications and corporate strategy that one sees in a modern context (Cornelissen, 2004). What this makes clear is that CC is
Shift Work and Scheduling in Aviation Industry Shift work and Fatigue in the Aviation Industry There is a circadian rhythm in every human being (refer to Figure 1). It basically acts like the body's biological alarm clock and it tells your body the time it needs to rest, to eat or even when to get active. The circadian rhythm can be interrupted by modifications in daily schedule. Disturbance in the circadian rhythm
