Health controversy
mainMobile phone radiation and health
As with many new technologies, concerns have arisen about the effects on [[health]] from using a mobile telephone. There is a small amount of scientific evidence for an increase in certain types of rare [[tumors]] ([[cancer]]) in long-time, heavy users. More recently a pan-[[European]] study provided significant evidence of [[DNAgenetic]] damage under certain conditions. Some researchers also report the mobile phone industry has interfered with further research on health risks. So far, however, the [[World Health Organization]] Task Force on EMF effects on health has no definitive conclusion on the veracity of these allegations. (See also [[electromagnetic radiation hazard]].) It is generally thought, however, that RF is incapable of producing any more than heating effects, as it is considered [[non-ionizing radiation]]; in other words, it lacks the energy to disrupt molecular bonds such as occurs in [[geneticsgenetic]] [[mutation]]s.

Security concerns
Early mobile phones did not have much security designed in. Some problems with these models were "cloning", a variant of [[identity theft]], and "scanning" whereby third parties in the local area could intercept and eavesdrop in on calls. Analogue phones could also be listened to on some radio scanners.

Although more recent digital systems (such as [[Global System for Mobile CommunicationsGSM]]) have attempted to address these fundamental issues, security problems continue to persist. Vulnerabilities (such as [[SMS spoofing]]) have been found in many current protocols that continue to allow the possibility of eavesdropping or cloning.

Does this sound familiar? You were hired for the new management position. You were tasked to turn the numbers around. You take some time reviewing the current situation. Now it’s time to take a look at the current processes and get your staff together to analyze the data. You tell them that you want to brainstorm; work on a few mind maps, whip out a couple Ishikawa’s to get started and then have them bring Pareto charts relative to their respective functions. One of your department heads looks at you and asks “Ishiwhat?” “You know,” you reply, “a fishbone diagram.” Still blank stares. “Cause and effect?” you say as you scribble out a trout carcass on your white board. Still nothing. You’re starting to think the elevator doesn’t go all the way to the top. You’ve got your work cut out for you. So you decide to punt. “Ok, let’s just start with the Pareto charts,” you concede. “Sir, what is a potato chart?” asks another supervisor. “Let’s take a five minute stretch break and then meet back in here so that I can welcome you to the world of Pareto charts. A Pareto chart looks similar to a bar chart. It has columns and it also has a line graph. Generally number of occurrences (frequency) is listed on the left side and percentage on the right. This type of chart is used to graphically summarize and display the relative importance of the differences between groups of data. For example, perhaps you have determined, or at least speculate that your widgets are being rejected due to – improper fittings, defective sorting machine, too large or too small, or other. If you look at the reports or studies and gather data on each of these reasons for failure, you can then plug the numbers into a chart. You may have assumed the reason for rejection was because the widgets were too large to fit through the tunnel. However your numbers may actually show (the data will validate) that indeed there was nothing wrong with the size of the widget, but rather the sorter was bent, thereby causing the good pieces to bounce into the reject bin. Typically you isolate five categories to measure. A Pareto chart can be constructed by separating the data into categories. Let’s look at another example. If your business was investigating the delay associated with processing mortgage applications, you could group the data into the following categories: No signature, address not valid, illegible handwriting, existing customer and other. The left-side vertical axis of the Pareto chart is labeled Frequency (the number of counts for each category), the right-side vertical axis of the Pareto chart is the cumulative percentage, and the horizontal axis of the Pareto chart is labeled with the group names (categories) of your response variables. Are you getting the idea? Your bottom row will be labeled: No signature, address not valid, illegible handwriting, existing customer and other. Each title will have a corresponding column associated with it. Next determine the number of data points that reside within each group and construct the Pareto chart in a spreadsheet program; Excel works very well for these types of charts. The difference between a Pareto and a typical bar chart is that the Pareto chart is ordered in descending occurrence importance. Once you have your Pareto constructed and you can visually see what the data is telling you, and you will be able to answer a few questions. You will be able to determine the largest issues facing your team, department or business; you will be able to see what 20% of sources are causing 80% of the problems; and lastly you will know where you should focus your efforts to achieve the greatest improvements. No more guess work. You won’t be needlessly wasting more time and money trying to fix problems that weren’t broken. Call a staff meeting and get to work on your potato, er a Pareto Charts!

Compliments that Reach the "Heart" of Employees
You can copy, distribute articles as is. As long as you keep this resources box and link back to OnArticle.com
As a manager you are responsible for the smooth running of company affairs. You know that this takes the effort of every person who reports to you. When an employee has brought a big project in on-time and on- budget you may want to express your gratitude in a personal way that shows total understanding and appreciation. You may want to provide a compliment that will motivate him/her, as well as to thank them for the work that they have already achieved. Here’s how to make your compliments reach their heart, not just their head, to impart a positive affirmation that will make them feel that you really understand and care. There are three parts to a successful compliment, namely: the Reason, the Feeling and the Result. Putting these parts together will send a message to your employee that will lift their spirits and send their ego flying! THE REASON To give a successful compliment you need to identify what the other person did that encouraged you. Why do you want to give the compliment? What did your employee do to warrant it? You need to pinpoint the reason why you want to give them a compliment so that your employee can understand why you are giving it. Describe the project that they were working on. Don’t use only a single sentence – provide at least three sentences to describe your employee’s involvement with the project. When you see exceptional work performance there is reason to provide a compliment that imparts meaning, so go into as much detail as possible about the project itself. THE FEELING How did you feel when your employee completed the project and produced a result that was much higher than expected? When a compliment is given that seems to have no just cause, it appears to be superficial. Terms like “Wow” or “Fantastic” are loud expressions suitable to be used at baseball or basketball matches and won’t suffice to touch the heart of an employee. You will need to put your own emotions into words – and for some of us, this can be close to impossible. Here are some emotive words that you can use to help describe how you may be feeling: grateful, excited, surprised, happy, pleasant, relaxed, peaceful, thrilled, tickled pink, joyful, elated, ecstatic, pleased, thankful, relieved, overjoyed, glad. Disclosing your feelings or emotions to an employee produces communication at an emotional level, bypassing the intellect. This is a deeper level of communication that reaches for the heart, not just the head. Since most work relationships are driven by position (e.g. manager to employee), you may find this part of the message more difficult to deliver than expected. However this is where you are able to produce the greatest gains in manager-employee relations. THE RESULT In order to create a compliment that reaches the heart, you need to be able to tell an employee how their actions have helped out the business. Be as factual about this as possible. You will need to provide some visible figures that represent the percentages gained as a result of their work. For example, did it save the company money or eliminate expense? Did the project have any unforeseen problems that were easily solved by the employee? Why are things different because of their work? This is part three of the message and provides a meaningful basis for awarding your employee a compliment that they deserve. PUTTING IT ALL TOGETHER Here is the formula for producing a great compliment that touches the heart: REASON + FEELING + RESULT = GREAT COMPLIMENT With a little practice this formula provides you the ability to land a meaningful compliment into the heart of your employee that says quite strongly, “Well done!”
