Actor managementagency’s services can come as a welcome addition to any struggling actor. Signing with an agent or artist manager is a huge step toward advancing your career as a professional actor with all the new opportunities they can scout for you and back you up with all the hard work, so you can concentrate on your craft. But don’t think that once you have signed with an artist management agency you can just sit back and relax. On the contrary, don’t rely entirely on your actor management to get you the auditions for acting. It is still your responsibility as an actor to take charge of your career.

You know what level of success you would like to get. Possibly you have spent years dreaming of one day walking the red carpet and already have the parts of a prepared acceptance speech running around in your head for that long overdue award, but remember success does not happen overnight.

The level of success you will attain is up to you. It all depends on the amount of work, time and energy you are willing to invest in order to make that dream of becoming a successful actor come true. It all comes down to two factors the first being, the art of acting. A strong foundation is essential. As with any endeavor worth pursuing, it is the passion for the craft that will reinforce your resolve and persistence. Get involved with an actors’ studio or join the local community theatre. Continue developing your talents and skills by taking classes and hiring a personal coach if you can afford one.

Being involved with the acting community will help you to forge good alliances and make valuable connections. Those connections can lead you to higher and better roles.The second factor is an important one. It is the art of marketing. You don’t want to be a hard sell, but you do want to do your best to get noticed. And the finest way to do that is through marketing yourself. You might want to consider a marketing service for their expertise in this field. A great marketing campaign can put your headshot in front of casting directors and can lead to lots and lots of auditions that might translate in to roles that will establish you as an accomplished actor.

While you are pursuing your acting career don’t forget to maintain your identity with your actor management agency. Trust that they are on your side and are looking at your best interests, but don’t hesitate to voice your concerns with your agent if you feel something is not quite right. The actor management agency acting on your behalf, or rather your talent agent who will be acting on your behalf will submit your headshot and resume to film executives and casting directors all over town for both television and film projects. Work with them closely to strategize what roles you are most suited for. Keep your integrity firm while discussing the finest approach in advancing your acting career.

Cell Phone Power Management Need To Be Cautious

Posted on July 26, 2019 by blogger

ON Semiconductor vice president of sales Lin Jianming China: the near future, sales of mobile phones and adapters will be completely separate, which will pose a mobile phone side of the test charge.Dell Inspiron 6000 battery

Lin Jianming: If there is no perfect internal overcharge protection circuit, the battery will overcharge may cause an explosion of serious consequences.

Charging the phone interface, over-voltage is undoubtedly the most dangerous. Poor quality in the adapter, failure or user error then a different device adapter can happen. In general, your phone charge management IC can control the charge current and voltage, to maintain the security charge the battery. However, if the rated current of the input voltage is too high while charging, over charging management circuit can withstand value, the circuit components will be adjusted because of charge-off or burned out of control power and role. The worst case, at this time if the user also uses low-cost lithium batteries, could not complete overcharge protection circuit, the battery will overcharge may cause serious consequences of such an explosion. To this end the provisions of the phone in YD/T1591-2006 in the side to contain over-voltage protection circuit to prevent such from happening. Overvoltage protection (OVP) circuitry detects over-voltage fault conditions, the detection circuit will be switch off, disconnect the phone and the adapter output.DELL Latitude E6400 Battery

Power Management Products National Semiconductor Senior Application Engineer Zhongjian Peng: charge management circuit functions normally charge by the management of single chip (Charger IC), or integrated charge-management functions of power management chip (PMU) to achieve. Rechargeable lithium battery management circuitry to support features for the trickle charge, constant current charging, constant voltage charging of the three charging process, and should have protection mechanisms to prevent overheating. Advanced charge management circuit also should have the input voltage over-voltage protection function. The protection of the safety of the product itself is very important. Some unqualified charge management circuit, often lack the protection of the design, the circuit itself may cause damage to the system overheating, or even more serious security issues.ACER TM00741 Battery

MPS Marketing Director Yuan Wenlin Asia: a new generation of rechargeable IC PMU have in addition to charging function through the highly integrated hardware to achieve high reliability, but also should have OVP (overvoltage protection), OCP (overcurrent protection) , NTC function, both a high input voltage, small size and simple external circuit. USB charger for battery management IC should be consistent with low standby power / charge current programmable switching / charging mode multiple input / can set the input power charger or USB port, and automatically charge the battery and cell phone distribution work be current; and in accordance with standard USB port of the limit.

Excellent cost-effective chip Recommended

Power Integrationss primary regulator device, such as LinkSwitch, can maintain the electrical insulation, and does not require optical isolators in the case of feedback to provide precise output voltage. This can reduce costs, help design a smaller charger, while maintaining the necessary security clearance.

The latest LinkSwitch-II products with accurate voltage control, can be very accurately simulated USB port. In addition, the products include cable drop compensation, so regardless of cable above the extent of the loss of current, voltage can be kept constant.Sony VGP-BPS8 Battery

LinkSwitch-II 5% voltage accuracy, current accuracy of 10%, for the adapter and charger is ideal. Also, it requires 20 components to build a complete AC power, which saves the cost of components itself, but also saves production time, assembly and inventory costs. “In China, labor costs have increased to around 0.003 U.S. dollars each component cost, for small patchy resistance and capacitor, in the cost of Shangzhangfuduo Gengda.” Doug Bailey of Road.

MPS full range of battery charging chips are produced using high pressure technology, have a minimum 20V, maximum 28V of voltage, and have been integrated over-voltage protection and meet the low standby power requirements. To comply with USB OTG low standby power requirements, a new generation of MP-2605X series also will reduce the standby current to 40uA, and increase the reverse input voltage protection (-16V) function, following the industry MPS charge chips widely used:

MP2605 standard charge applies to all chip general hand-held portable devices; MP26056 support USB / adapter pair of input interface for USB interfaces need to charge the portable device; MP2607 built pwr path, can be automatically assigned to charge the battery and the phone work current required for high-end hand-held portable devices such as smart phones, GPS navigation, PDA applications.

“Based on customer feedback, they are using MPS of charge chips, the great majority Yin Wei cost considerations Ercai Yong PMU / single chip charge management, but only to find defects line charge account all Ke Fan Xiu back the number of more than 20%, but cause the overall cost increase; but wants to be using external components to enhance the safety factor PMU, the additional cost and board area, also makes the industry difficult to sustain. At this point if the use of MPS battery charging chip, cost and product quality can be strikes a balance. “Yuanwen Lin said.

TIs bq24070 series and bq24032A series provides a separate charge path and system power path, effectively prevent the repeated charge and discharge system problems, battery life is greatly extended; resolve the cell phone a full charge the battery consumption issues began to extend the standby time 10 ~ 20%; effectively prevent the system out of control due to CPU crash and the risk of charge, to prevent the result of external pressure and breakdown voltage over the issue, greatly increasing the reliability of the system; eliminates the additional over-voltage protection, and path switching MOSFET and Schottky diode, reducing total system cost. The adapter current consumption in the system and charge redistribution between the automatic on-demand, using a small adapter, but greatly accelerated the charge time and reduce costs while improving the user experience.Acer Aspire 5000 battery

“TI advocates the path of dynamic power management in battery power management applications has been recognized by customers, such as dual-port (USB, AC adapter input, respectively) linear charge management chip bq24032A series, single-port bq24070 Series (USB, AC adapter to share an input), “Zhang was said.

ON Semiconductor has introduced a series of overvoltage protection chip. AC adapter for wall charging plug the NCP347/348, can provide up to 2A of charge mobile phone current and voltage transients up to 28V fault protection; NCP360 and NCP361 USB interface, suitable for positive over-voltage protection controller, with very low 35A current consumption to meet USB standby requirements, NCP361 also has a current limit function; to meet the cell phone charger / power supply to accessories such as the demand for bi-directional current control, ON Semiconductor also forthcoming NCP370, provide 28V overvoltage protection and adjustable current limit.

At a more strategic level the bank was able to determine the Optimum Counter & Service mix per branch ie Number of counters offering a particular service. Wait time and service time metrics were used to calculate employee productivity bringing high degree of transparency and promoting an analytic driven culture. The comparative data from Opti-Q is sent out every month to all branch heads, motivating them to better their branch performance to higher levels. “Team spirit and accountability at branches has shot up, with measurable cost savings”says Mrs. Madhabi Puri Buch (Executive Director-ICICI Bank)

Opti-Q is today the focal point of ICICI’s branch banking and has been implemented in more than 700 branches of ICICI Bank in India besides the overseas branches including UK, Canada, Bahrain, Singapore and Sri-Lanka. The next level of Opti-Q would involve integration with CRM systems for priority banking services to the banks existing customers while enabling customer service agents to cross sell and upsell products to their current customers.

The branch is as much a service vehicle as it is an effective sales vehicle, “Mrs. Madhabi Puri Buch added, while holding fort on the introduction of Dynamic Queue Management Systems (DQMS) for customers at ICICI Bank branches. “Data from DQMS will now form an input for many of the bank’s initiatives such as productivity and Six Sigma. The data on the number of transactions at each desk per employee will help to calculate employee productivity and determine staffing requirements. ‘Customer wait time’ and ‘Customer transaction time’ form valuable Process Quality Information System inputs for Six Sigma certification”.

Suggestions about Golf Course Management to Maximize Your Game

Posted on July 19, 2019 by blogger

Throughout a game of golf we’re facing choices with virtually every golf shot we make. Some can be quite straightforward, like using a driver on longer, problem-free holes. Others get a little harder, like if you find problems ahead and you’ve got multiple shot possibilities. This is basically what course management will be, and the greater amount of good decisions you make the prospect of you completing a good game of golf improve.

As in any sport, what goes into good decision-making starts with getting prepared. Anytime you are making a decision with club selection, knowing the distance you are able to hit each club on average is going to go into good golf course management. You find this on a driving range, and unless you are a low handicap golfer you will not hit a golf club the same distance each ball. When you rely on your greatest shot distance, in all probability nine out of ten golf shots will come up short, and that is poor course management.

Another need-to-know item before you hit the very first tee is knowing your strengths and weaknesses. Is what help make this harder are your strengths and weaknesses are usually in a state of flux. As for me, there have been periods when I am entirely confident playing from sand, and other times when I’m clueless. If I know I’m able to hit the sand shot, there have been occasions when I’ve used a trap as being a bail-out spot as opposed to taking the possibility of hitting the shot into rough that might give me an impossible lie. There may be literally numerous situations like this.

Here are just a few additional situations that will help your golf course management decisions:

1.Driver from the tee. Often this will be the way to go, but do not robotically suppose so. Some holes set up for additional precision off of the tee yet the next golf shot is more forgiving. Sound golf course management requires that you leave the next shot with a clear golf swing from a good lie, even though it will take a longer shot.

2.Be familiar with the percentages. With poker, drawing to an inside straight is feasible, but taking those chances will always catch up to you. Always take the high-percentage shot. You may be able to complete a one-in-ten shot, but nine out of ten times you’ll be in danger.

3.Pitching the ball high rather than chipping it low. There are instances when you need to pitch the ball over trouble to your target. But it is a tougher golf shot. Keeping your chip near to the ground and taking as much spin off the ball as you can will take away one more variable, allowing for more dependable control. General rule for better golf course management would be to generally maintain your shot near to the ground for the chip shot.

The modern-day golf clubs will help the mid and high handicapped golfer, as long as they keep the swing under control. Keeping the swing under control will also have an effect on the short game, including chipping. Jim O’Connell is an avid golfer and writer living in Chicago.

Current Hospital Management Issues In The Us

Posted on July 14, 2019 by blogger

In the health care industry, hospital management has emerged as one of the most important areas within the industry because, as a discipline, it integrates medical, practical, social, and economic factors in ensuring the smooth and effective management of hospitals as the main sources of health care provision and services. According to the American Hospital Association (AHA), there are currently 5,708 registered hospitals throughout the US servicing over 37 million patients in a single year. The logistic requirements of overseeing such a huge sector of the health care industry require expert and professional management.

In addition, the AHA official guide to hospital listing requirements, it states that there must be a chief executive responsible for overseeing hospital operations in accordance with established policy. In this light, it is clear that ensuring the smooth delivery of services to patients entails proper hospital management.

As a discipline, hospital management has faced growing demands for high quality medical care and services, as well as facilities where these shall be undertaken. Hospital management serves as the direct link between healthcare facilities and the practitioners, staff, and companies providing the services and products needed to ensure smooth operation. As a highly demanding field, hospital management has faced several issues in the past. The ongoing search for solutions to improve the delivery of superior services to patients is a challenging and difficult task, especially when one considers the major issues involved.

Financial constraints
With the economic downturn currently being felt across US industries, hospital management is also reeling from its effects. In fact, according to American College of Healthcare Executives (ACHE) annual survey regarding issues faced by managers, financial problem is the top issue in hospital management today. Problems such as increased operational costs, the demand for more affordable services, and the like have seriously effected hospital management in unprecedented ways.

Ensuring patient safety and service quality
Despite the financial considerations, a hospital manager must still ensure that the institution is capable of providing superior services to its patients. This aspect requires continuously identifying, conceptualizing, and implementing systems designed to ensure patient safety and service quality. For example, given the drastic limitations in budget, the dilemma is to provide the same level of service quality and patient safety and security at a lesser cost to the hospital.

Employee Satisfaction
Apart from the above, third on the list is maintaining employee satisfaction. Given that hospital personnel are on the frontline of service provision, a hospital manager must keep the employees satisfied and motivate them to produce good work. This area requires a review of stress-inducing factors that heighten employee dissatisfaction. Steps must also be taken to address the issue of lack of control over ones duties and work schedules as well as the lack of access to the decision making process involving hospital personnel.

An effective hospital management system is one that expertly integrates various factorseconomic, financial, social, and professional considerationsto maintain the quality of service and ensure the overall safety and security of its patients. In order to improve an existing management system, these important factors must be considered and ultimately, be addressed.
