Creating an Executive Summary Word includes a special tool that creates automatic summaries of your documents for you. This tool is called AutoSummarize, appropriately enough. The summary can be any length you specify, and you can save it to a new document, add it to the beginning of your document, or simply highlighted it in place. This feature allows you to quickly create a starting point for an executive summary. Notice that I said AutoSummarize creates a "starting point." This is because the summary is based on what Word can figure out about your document. To use the AutoSummarize feature, follow these steps: Load and display the document you want to summarize.Choose AutoSummarize from the Tools menu. Figure 1. In the Type of Summary area, specify which of the four summary types you want to create.In the Length of Summary area, indicate by using the Percent of Original drop-down list exactly how long you want the summary to be.Click on the OK button.

A Free Web & Mobile App for Reading Comfortably — Readability Virtualization For Dummies Cheat Sheet To help you get a better understanding and expand your knowledge of virtualization, get to know these useful terms and how they apply to virtualization and its process: Bare metal: Virtualized servers in which the virtualization software is installed directly on the machine rather than on an operating system. Because it installs on the machine, it is said to reside on “bare metal.” Client virtualization: Using virtualization to enable a client device (like a laptop) to support isolated operating environments. Client virtualization is often used to move workloads into isolated environments to reduce system administration requirements. P2V: Shorthand for “physical to virtual.” Server virtualization: Running virtualization software on server machines in order to host multiple operating system environments on a single piece of hardware. Storage virtualization: Using shared storage located on individual servers so that multiple servers can share a single storage device.

Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Systems Association Welcome Getting from Here to There Getting from Here to ThereUDL, Global Positioning Systems, andLessons for Improving Education David H. Rose, Ed. D., and Jenna W. Gravel, Ed. Sadly for education, the commonly-available GPS exemplifies the principles and guidelines of Universal Design for Learning better than most educational curricula. Published in: Gordon, D.T., Gravel, J.W., & Schifter, L.A. (2009). More on this article An analogy for education: How the GPS Addresses UDL Principles Below is a brief summary exploring the features of the GPS through the lens of the UDL guidelines. Principle I. Guideline 1: Provide options for perception The GPS recognizes the diversity among travelers and provides many of the perceptual options recommended in the UDL guidelines. All key information is presented by both visual and auditory means.Options to customize the display of information are built in: you can make the screen brighter, adjust contrast, increase or decrease the size of images, increase or decrease the volume, etc.

Amazon Web Services (AWS) - Cloud Computing Services AWS Security Center Not only are your applications and data protected by highly secure facilities and infrastructure, but they’re also protected by extensive network and security monitoring systems. These systems provide basic but important security measures such as distributed denial of service (DDoS) protection and password brute-force detection on AWS Accounts. Additional security measures include: Secure access – Customer access points, also called API endpoints, allow secure HTTP access (HTTPS) so that you can establish secure communication sessions with your AWS services using SSL/TLS. Because the AWS cloud infrastructure provides so many built-in security features, you can simply focus on the security of your guest OS and applications. Because we know that some security features can impact performance, we look for ways to reduce friction within existing security processes. And we continue to look for ways to strengthen the security processes you already depend on.

How to Navigate to a Saved Waypoint on a GPS Operating a GPS for backcountry or geocaching use is quite simple after a few minutes of experimenting with a device and following some simple GPS instructions like those included in this article. This is one of a series of articles we have on our site about GPS usage; see below for a complete listing of our GPS how-to articles. This article discusses how to navigate to a waypoint saved on your GPS and some points to sonsider as you follow the arrow toward your destination. We often use a basic Garmin eTrex unit as our go-to example, but all GPS units function in very similar ways and have similar features. • Move between pages or menu screen – Usually a button labeled “Page”. • Scroll within choices on a page – this may be a “rocker” button or two “up-and-down” buttons, similar to the function a mouse or cursor movers does on a computer. • Select a choice – usually a button that says “Enter”. To navigate to a specific waypoint, first find the full list of waypoints on your GPS.
