My Pelco equipment has three wires for lens con- nections but the brand X lens my dealer sold me has four! What do I do?

We’ve all heard this problem many times, but it’s really simple to fix once you understand how lens wiring works. All lens motors are DC powered with two wires each, so reversing the polarity on those two motor wires will reverse the direction of the lens movement. If you connect one wire to positive and the other to negative the zoom (or focus) will move in one direction; reverse the wires and it will move the other direction. Typically the wires will be clearly identified as to which pair is zoom and which is focus, but zoom in versus zoom out or focus near versus focus far often gets lost in the translation.

These guidelines revise and replace the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA’s, or the Agency’s) Guidelines for Carcinogen Risk Assessment, published in 51 FR 33992, September 24, 1986 (U.S. EPA, 1986a) and the 1999 interim final guidelines (U.S. EPA, 1999a; see U.S. EPA 2001b). They provide EPA staff with guidance for developing and using risk assessments. They also provide basic information to the public about the Agency’s risk assessment methods.

The Emotional Toothbrush series is to make practicing Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) fun and easy. To get insights and AHA’s between sessions and to support your Personal Peace Procedure and accompany you on your journey to Freedom and Joy.

I use EFT every day of my life to assist me in creating a life of infinite gratitude and joy. I compare my daily practice of EFT to brushing my teeth. I brush my teeth every day—just like you do. I do this to prevent cavities and ensure good dental health. I don’t wait until I go to the dentist to find out if I have cavities or other dental problems to start brushing. I brush every day because I want to create healthy teeth. Similarly I use EFT every day to release negative thoughts, limitations and feelings. I also use EFT to assist me in creating a life of unconditional love, deep peace and abundant grace.

Step 1- Project Identification

The first step in the IT Governance process is the identification of those IT Projects across the campus that may have significant impact on the campus in terms of outside funding requirements, technological integration, deployment impact, and project management needs.

A major source of information for this step is the identification of such projects through the annual campus strategic planning process. In addition, some projects may arise on an ad hoc basis in response to emergent needs. It is neither necessary nor practical for all IT Projects to pass through the entire IT Governance Process described in this guide. The intent of the governance process is to apply good judgment and to focus attention and resources only on those projects that truly require it and that have the greatest impact on the campus.

Introduction

What you choose to eat affects your chances of developing high blood pressure, or hypertension (the medical term). Recent studies show that blood pressure can be lowered by following the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) eating plan—and by eating less salt, also called sodium.

While each step alone lowers blood pressure, the combination of the eating plan and a reduced sodium intake gives the biggest benefit and may help prevent the development of high blood pressure. This booklet, based on the DASH research findings, tells how to follow the DASH eating plan and reduce the amount of sodium you consume. It offers tips on how to start and stay on the eating plan, as well as a week of menus and some recipes. The menus and recipes are given for two levels of daily sodium consumption—2,300 and 1,500 milligrams per day. Twenty-three hundred milligrams is the highest level considered acceptable by the National High Blood Pressure Education Program. It is also the highest amount recommended for healthy Americans by the 2005 “U.S. Dietary Guidelines for Americans.” The 1,500 milligram level can lower blood pressure further and more recently is the amount recommended by the Institute of Medicine as an adequate intake level and one that most people should try to achieve.
