Land-Use Impacts on Transportation
In Chapter 16, you are introduced to the land-use impacts on transportation. In the Ewing and Cervero studies, pick one of the four major impacts and explain why you think it is important and what you would do to help or improve that area given the chance. The four major impacts are:
1. Total vehicular travel (VMT or VHT) is primarily a function of regional accessibility. Local densities and degree of land-use mix had little impact on total travel, which implied that pockets of dense, mixed-use developments in sparsely populated areas would offwer little benefits.
2. Trip frequencies: are largely a function of socioeconomic characteristics and are largely independent of land-use variables.CLICK HERE TO ORDER THIS ESSAY!!!!
3. Trip lengths: are directly due to the built environment and indirectly due to socioeconomic characteristics. They are generally shorter in traditional urban settings characterized by concentrations of activities, diverse land-use, and grid-like street networks.
4. Modal choice: depends on the diversity of land-use, local population densities, and socioeconomic characteristics. However, the prevalence of walking and transit in traditional urban settings may be attributed to the self-selection nature of the sample (i.e., people who prefer to use transit or walk are likely to choose to live in traditional urban settings).

Risk Assessment
Directions for assignment:
The virtual organization is McBride Financial Services – Sioux Falls, South Dakota
Part 1: Select one of the locations for preparing a comprehensive risk assessment for McBride?s management team. The risk assessment must identify potential information security and business continuity/IT disaster recovery specific risks that might affect the operation of the business.
Part 1 already done! location chosen is Sioux Falls, South Dakota.CLICK HERE TO ORDER THIS ESSAY!!!!
PART 2: For each/risk threat identified, assess the likelihood of occurrence, potential impact to the organization if it did occur, and based on these two factors, an overall risk level. For purposes of this assignment, you can rate each factor as low, medium and high. For example, a risk/threat with a low likelihood of occurrence and a high impact would represent an overall medium risk. As part of this, a rationale for your assessment should be provided.
PART 2: Risk have been identified – this is my risk to complete using PART 3.
RISK: Anti-Virus protection / Risk: High / Occurrence: High
PART 3: Determine the steps that can be taken to address these risks. The controls identified should be cost-effective based on the overall risk level assessed. Typically, there can be several controls used to address each risk.

Describe, Who is a mother?
To some people a mother is just like any other ordinary person. To others, a mother is just a word, and they have got no emotional attachment to the word whatsoever. To others, a mother is someone who is regarded as the genesis of a generation, who is supposed to be handed the best care till their time to depart from the world has arrived. However, who actually is a mother? Who has got responsibility over a mother? Should we assume that the same way they took care of us while we are growing up, they can take care of their selves when their sunset years arrive? This essay is going to try covering all this aspects in a bid to get a better understanding of how to view mothers all over the world.
I came to first think of how to treat mothers when I gave one old woman a lift on a certain cold and rainy day. She symbolised all our mothers because in her I could see the warm smile (despite the weather and the fact that she was being rained on) and the good heart she still had as I asked her couple of questions before she boarded my vehicle. To me she symbolised the cradle of humanity. She was the birth of a new generation. As I drove I wondered what could have happened to her had I not reversed to go and pick her and save her from the rain? Most cars she waved at simply splashed the rain water on her as they sped off. While I looked at the woman I wondered where her family was and why they not concerned that their mother was not around them. At her advanced age she needed constant supervision and attention. She reminded me of how we tearfully took our own mother to a nursing home where she was going to receive the best care from professionals. I kept wondering why this old woman wasn’t at the nursing home. I tended to think that her family were very irresponsible for not according her the best care she needed at her advanced age. But then I realised how much they really must love their mother to want to stay with her despite her advanced age. She needed all the love and affection she could get, and honestly this could only come from her family. The nursing home was just but a home that provided professional care and as I could relate from my mother’s experience, the home did not have what she had been used to; her azaleas, the neighbours and her bird feeders. She missed her normal life even though she had forgotten how to dress up. What I never realised was that the old woman in my car really did not remember her home but she relied on the goodness of her neighbours to come and assist her get home. I just never realised I was playing a huge role in her life by bringing her closer to her home.CLICK HERE TO ORDER THIS ESSAY!!!!
From my incident with the old woman I realised that, mothers are important people in our lives, they evoke a sense of humanity that does not illuminate itself daily in our daily lives. They deserve our attention and whatever way we give it to them it should be covered with love as that is the only thing that they want in their sunset years. Caring of mothers should be a universal endeavour as they require reciprocation from a younger generation that they helped raise. Mothers are ever golden, and the humility they posses should be envied and copied. Their optimism in life even when they know they are nearing life’s end is still amazing, it made me realise that soon I will also be in the same position and I would require assistant from anyone who can help me. The experience taught me one thing, ‘mother’ is a hereditary role which should be respected and treated as cordially as it deserves.CLICK HERE TO ORDER THIS ESSAY!!!!
