A local municipality expects to close its landfill in one year, and it has decided to adopt a thermal technology for the treatment of its municipal solid waste. The city needs your help to choose between a traditional municipal waste incinerator and a pyrolysis unit. As a solid waste professional, you have been hired by the city council to provide an analysis of these two technologies.

You are tasked with preparing an executive summary that compares the two technologies. Your summary should contain the following items:

a short description of the technologies, their advantages and disadvantages, their waste products, and their economics; the fundamental science and engineering principles of solid waste management that are involved;the laws or standards that factor into your decision;how your decision will affect the population of the community; and

your recommendation and rationale to the city.

Your executive summary should be a minimum of three pages in length. You must use your textbook and at least one resource from the CSU Online Library in your paper, but other academic sources may be used in addition. Any outside information used must be cited in accordance to APA style, and your paper should be formatted in APA style to include a title page, running head, and reference page.

Can anyone check this text for me?

Hallo Sabine,

ich weiß nicht, ob ich dir von meiner Universität erzählt habe, wo ich studiere. Ich bin ganz zufällig auf sie gestoßen. Meine Freundin, die dort studierte, hat mich gebeten, mit ihr zur Prüfung zu gehen. Und weil ich Zeit und ein Auto hatte, nahm ich sie gerne mit. Als sie die Prüfung bestanden hatte, beschloss ich, eine kleine Reise durch die Universität zu arrangieren, und es stellte sich heraus, dass es ein sehr toller und interessanter Ort war. Die Universität hat mehrere interessante Richtungen, zß: Verwaltung, Staatssicherheit, Architektur, Pädagogik, Tourismus und Erholung, Sport und sogar die Philologie, die ich schon immer studieren wollte. Und so fing es an. Ich habe meine Dokumente geschickt und ich wurde angenommen. Im Sekretariat des Instituts für moderne Sprachen kann man immer die Hilfe und den Rat bekommen, den den man braucht. Es stellte sich heraus, dass es neben interessanten Aktivitäten auch Ausflüge nach Deutschland-Königswinter gibt, wo man die Sprache verbessern kann. Auf Überredung von Frau Sput haben wir uns entschlossen, mit einer Freund zu fahren. Das war ein Schuss ins Schwarze. Wir besuchten viele interessante Orte, die die Frau Sput in ihrem Unterricht erwähnte. Und es hat uns so gut gefallen, dass wir an dieser Reise ein Jahr später auch teilgenommen haben. Auf dieser Reise begann eine Freundschaft, die bis heute andauert, trotz der Tatsache, dass sich unsere Wege getrennt haben.

Im ersten Studienjahr den größten Eindruck machte auf mich Dr. Hab. Norbert Honsza – Dozent an der Universität Wrocław. Sein Unterricht war sehr interessant und die Tatsache, dass er Gunter Grass kannte, inspirierte mich dazu, seine Autobiographie zu lesen.

PWSZ ist eine empfehlenswerte Hochschule. Viele Freunde haben hier studiert und jeder von ihnen hat im Einklang mit seiner Ausbildung eine gute Arbeit gefunden, in der er in jeder Hinsicht erfüllt ist. Ich werde die Universität mit einer schönen Zeit im Unterricht, guten Dozenten, coolen Leuten und einer schönen Stadt wie Ratibor verbinden.

n this Lab, you continue developing a secure network for LedGrafix, the video game development company for which you drew a network diagram in Unit 1, and performed a risk assessment for in the previous Lab.This project might look like a tremendous task, but reviewing the sample information security policy documents you can download from SANS (http:// should be very helpful. As you’ll see, many sections of the policy are only a few sentences. You can organize the information in whatever sequence you like and add items as needed. You can also use whatever resources you want, as long as you don’t infringe copyrights and trademarks or violate ECPI’s plagiarism policy. You may find separate sample policies for items listed in this Lab, so just combine them as you see fit. For example, you may find an “Acceptable Use Policy” and a “Remote Access Policy” as separate documents. Any sections you don’t understand can be clarified by running an Internet search. Using free templates (not copyrighted) and modifying them as needed is strongly recommended. In the real world, you wouldn’t be required to write the policy from scratch, and saving time means saving money the company is paying you for this task. The only rule is to cite your sources. Your grade won’t be affected by using a template.
