Resolved Question: a little networking project?
Introduction
You are the Network Manager at a major finance company. The company operates from a
single Head Office and employs two classes of sales staff who work from their homes.
Recently, the Management has set aside a budget to equip its sales force with a mixture of
portable notebook PCs and Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs) so that staff can provide
appropriate advice to customers and also create suitable quotes for the company’s products.
As part of this development the sales staff will need to communicate electronically with head
office.
Senior Sales Staff
These members of the sales force will be supplied with a suitable Notebook PC and portable
printer so that they can deliver the company’s message via a PowerPoint presentation,
compile and print suitable quotations for insurance products, check a central database for
available products, perform queries on existing customer records, send and receive e-mail,
and complete sales orders online.
Normal Sales Staff
These staff members will be supplied with a suitable PDA which will allow them to perform
the following tasks; check a central database for available products, perform queries on
existing customer records, send and receive e-mail, and upload completed sales orders.
Note that the key function for both types of user is the ability to communicate with the
company’s central system and therefore the establishment of an appropriate secure data
communications method is of paramount importance.
However, before this can be achieved the expenditure has to be fully justified and a project
plan has to be produced to cover the expected work involved in the implementation of the
new system.
Aims
To produce a feasibility report outlining the case for the provision of a remote working
system within the company and to develop a comprehensive project plan for its
implementation. These two documents will form the basis of a presentation to the
management in order to convince them that the proposed solution is justifiable and practical.
In addition, you are required to produce a brief report detailing the role of Network Manager
in the proposed project.
This assignment has been designed to ensure that you are familiar with the various aspects of
designing, planning, and implementing such a system of remote working within an
organisation.

the company. In your report you should:

Resolved Question: What? I can’t even be just friends with him? ?
Sorry this is gonna be long. Please be patient.
I lost my virginity to this exchange student at school 2 weeks ago. He is about to turn 21 and said he has slept with around 30 women so far. (I knew that after sleeping with him, because I asked him afterwards)
JUST AFTER SLEEPING WITH ME, out of nowhere, he told me that he hates PDA and asked me not to jump up and kiss him suddenly in front of people, but in fact he is the one initiating kissing me in the railway before. I already assumed all along that guys do not like PDA so i never displayed affection towards him in public, but only to hold his hands, therefore i was quite offended by his “statement”. Then this guy said “i’m just telling ya”
Resolved Question: How many words/phrases should a German-English/Enlish-German dictionary have to be considered “BIG”?
I’m buying a German-English/English-German dictionary for my PDA and I was wondering how many words/phrases it should have to be considered a large dictionary. Over 50,000? over 100,000? over 150,000? The one I’m looking at has 130,000. Keep in mind this is an English-German/German English dictionary, not just a normal English dictionary.
Thanks!
here is the dictionary in case it helps to see the description: http://pocketpc.mobisystems.com/product….
Resolved Question: Paypal Selling Problems?
Ok so i sold my first item on ebay. I sold a sidekick ii for $200. I used this as my title on the item “NEW SIDEKICK 2 II PDA CELL PHONE T-MOBILE LX SLIDE G1″. I used “LX SLIDE G1″ for advertising purposes (so it can show up in more searches) but in the description i clearly stated “Hello, This auction is on a brand new (outside the box) never used T-mobile Sidekick II.” I purchased this same sidekick off of ebay and the seller said it was brand new never used so i added that to my description. It had no fingerprints on it so i also added that. I also clearly stated “It comes with a travel charger and a case!” Also the tilt was in perfect condition. it was not loose or anything. Here are the pictures i uploaded and put in the description. The sidekick was in the same condition as in the pictures.

Resolved Question: do guys like modesty?
do guys REALLY like those $kanks? or would they just have sex with them?
what i want to know is if guys would rather have a serious relationship with a modest girl or someone who shows a lot of cleavage and does not care that they are tempting them? like i’m NOT a fan of PDA at all. and i don’t “make-out” or have sex til marriage. i guess you could call that modest (some people prefer prude though ;]])
it’s a choice i made. and i think it’s right for me. i’m a strong girl. and i can do it. so i need a guy that is strong enough to wait with me.
Resolved Question: Is it ok to hate my best friend?
Background: he came to my school in the sixth grade and we have been friends since the first day. We are now in our senior year in high school.
Well the story starts with a girl (don’t they all). This one chick has been obsessed with my best friend for years. He finally agrees to go out with her. In my opinion it was only for the sex but what ever.
Well they have been dating (i use that term loosely) for about a year and he has changed. I know most people joke about the whole leash thing but this is a real life case of it. He will invite us over to his house just to kick us out if she wants him to come over thirty minutes after we get there. He blows us off with out warning. He even didn’t show up to a concert because of her. Tickets were sixty bucks and he said he wouldn’t pay for them because he didn’t go. He knew about it for five weeks. That was my sixty bucks.
Any time we go anywhere they can’t be separated. Every five minutes she has to “go to the bathroom” and he goes to if you catch my drift. I am personally not a big fan of the pda and she will stick her hand were it doesn’t belong in PUBLIC!!!!
So i ask in your opinion is it ok to tell him i don’t want anything to do with him anymore?
We all have told him before that he needs to find a balance between friends and girlfriends.
We still invite him over because the few times he doesn’t jump when she says toad he is still cool to hang around. But that is only about one percent of the time. I guess we just always hoping he would change.

Resolved Question: What are your opinions on teenage public displays of affection?
We are doing a sociology project and we need to find out your opinions on PDA’s in the High School hallways. In this case a PDA is defined as holding hands and kissing.
Please include if you are a teenager or adult in your answer.
Thanks =]
Resolved Question: How would women benefit from anti-feminism? What if we got rid of “equality” legislation since the 1960′s?
What would happen if we got rid of all the legislation related to equal pay, sexual harassment, equal education, pregnancy discrimination, paternal/maternal employment leave, marital rape, and violence against women, that have been passed since 1960-how would women (and men) benefit from anti-feminism? This would be some of the legislation that would be erased:
1963 The Equal Pay Act passes, requiring equal wages for women and men doing equal work. It is the first federal law prohibiting sex discrimination.
