Abstract
This paper discusses that the major concern is that the electromagnetic waves, or the EM, ultimately may cause cancer. The author points out that the energy generated from mobile phones is called non-ionizing because they are said to have photon energy to remove atoms from living tissues, which may cause a lot of serious biological problems. The paper concludes that various studies conducted to evaluate this situation state that there is no real connection between the usage of cell phones and the cause of cancer.
From the Paper
"The non-ionization of molecules has been always associated with the biological affects of X-rays. When the frequency is lower, such as that of visible light, the RF and the MW is very low to be able to disorder chemical bonds. This electromagnetic spectrum is called as non-ionizing. Since this non-ionizing electromagnetic energy cannot break chemical bonds there is no relation between these and the non-ionizing electromagnetic rays. But it is true that this non-ionizing electromagnetic energy can cause certain biological effects and the biological effects of these soft UV, visible and IR frequencies all rely on the photon energy that is emitted. But most of these consist of electronic excitation rather than ionization and most of these also do not occur at a frequency less than 3*10^11 Hz in terms of IR. These RF and MW radiations can cause heating in tissues in which they are in direct contact. It is the frequency of the source that determines the amount and the direction of the object being heated. The AM radio uses a frequency which is much below, 10^6 Hz, here the energy level is very low, and hence cannot cause any sort of damage to the human body or to animals."

Abstract
There are two arguments regarding the treatment of mental health. Some believe that it should receive the same amount of health care coverage as physical illness, while others argue that the costs of treating mental illness could lead to severe problems. To better understand these arguments, this paper examines two articles, "Mental Health Should be Treated on Par with Physical Health," by Lewis L. Judd, and "Mental Health Should Not be treated on Par with Physical Health," by Richard E. Vatz, as well as two of their reference sources.
From the Paper
"Martin Bobgan and Deidre Bobgan, the writers of an article titled, "Mental Illness is not a Disease" would probably agree that spending money on mental illness, and treating it equally to physical illness would be a lost cause. Although their opinion is much more drastic than that of Richard Vatz, all three writers would probably seem to agree that covering mental illness in insurance coverage would not be helpful to society. In the article, Mental Illness is not a Disease," Martin and Deidre Bobgan profess that people "continue to promote the false concept of mental illness, to align it with medicine, and consign it to science." It is apparent that these writers believe that the mental state and one's physical well-being fall into completely different categories."

From the Paper
"For the need of healthcare industry, care providers have been implementing mobile health care projects, which provide inherent mobile workflow of the clinical environment, an absolute must for physician adoption and usage of any technology. Wireless mobile technology is definitely headed towards success in the healthcare industry owing to the technologies and benefits provided above. But we need to realize that organizational and cultural issues except for technology itself at the same time. For example, there are many articles describing the successful implementation of wireless technology in clinics and hospitals nationwide, some of them have been explored in this paper; however, there is also lack of studies measuring the Return on Investment (ROI) of implementing wireless mobile solution in healthcare. The few that exist have been conducted by the vendors of the wireless technology themselves and are likely to be biased on the positive side for obvious reason. Thus more researches and studies need to be conducted and more evidence needs to be gathered about the impact of wireless systems in healthcare."

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
The future of mobile telephony is closely linked to services. Users are required to purchase new phones with new technical features for the large-scale diffusion of service platforms and the adoption of increasingly advanced services. The survey in this paper indicates, however, that services are not such an important reason for consumer purchases of new mobile phones. In this paper, the authors have chosen a different approach, in which they look at the reasons consumers have bought their recent mobile phones in Finland. Instead of relying on the hopes and expectations of the future, they focus on individual consumer interpretations of past behavior. The paper, first, briefly describes the peculiarities of the Finnish mobile market.Then it looks at how the survey was carried out and what kinds of results were obtained. Finally it discusses the relevance of the results for the evolution of mobile services. The paper includes tables.

From the Paper
"The visions of mobile telephony are closely linked to services, gaming, multimedia and mCommerce. For the large scale diffusion of these innovations and applications, users are required to purchase new phones with new features (Kalakota & Robinson 2002, Lindmark 2002). GPRS, Java and Symbian applications are new parts of the contemporary infrastructure in Europe, but even this infrastructure is going to evolve rapidly in the near future. This means that a user with a phone bought today is not likely to be able to take full advantage of the state-of-the-art mobile features and services a few years from now. Correspondingly, the new features and services will not be commercially successful if only few consumers purchase appropriate phones."

Abstract
This informative paper discusses the pros and cons to the recent approach in employment known as the freelancer or mobile worker. Among the advantages of being mobile is the flexibility and freedom offered versus being tied down to a formal office. Freelance and mobile workers are viewed as more projects oriented and flexible enough to fit into almost any situation employers can imagine. This paper explores the cost saving elements in outsourcing which is in fact more profitable, resulting in savings that are passed on to the consumer. This paper also describes the staffing process for mobile workers, which is a simple plan of screening applicants from various sources, as well as the pitfalls to avoid.
Topics covered in this report include:

From the Paper
"Among the advantages of being, mobile or working from an undefined location is the freedom being offered versus the tied down to a formal office, sales or various other locations. By this, it means that the "Mobile Worker," quite often works from either their homes or their vehicles and more often than not some combination of the two. Furthermore, this freedom has great assets to offer the worker where it comes to having time to spend with family at critical junctures in their daily lives. This one advantage alone for many makes this form of working the career path of choice and the workforce in this area is growing exponentially monthly consequently."

"The field of Telecommunications can be described as a science and a technology (Kleiner and Polak, 2001). The science it particular describes is the science of communication over distances of electronic waves (Kleiner and Polak, 2001). Telecommunication can occur through cables and telephones, through radio or televisions (Kleiner and Polak, 2001). The telecommunications industry is ever changing, described best by fierce competition and state of the art technology (Kleiner and Polak, 2001)."

Abstract
This study focuses upon observations of mobile phone use and the ways in which users employ their mobile phones while socially involved in a group or pair. The controversial technological determinist Marshall McLuhan claimed that 'all media work us over completely' (McLuhan, 2001:26). The aim of this paper is to investigate to what extent this is true with regard to the mobile phone and to look at how users select calls when in the presence of others using the affordances and constraints of the technology. The degree to which the mobile phone became a part of the social context and in particular the way in which participants in a group or pair responded to the interruption of a mobile phone conversation is the central focus of the study.
From the Paper
"To help analyse the observations it is important that we have an understanding of the different identities involved in a telephone conversation and their role in progression. The terms used by most academics when analysing data are that of the 'caller', 'answerer' and 'called'. Hutchby considers the answerer of the telephone call at a disadvantage. In Conversation and Technology he notes 'the caller knows who they are trying to call, and why they are doing so... the answerer knows nothing on either count' (Hutchby, 2001: 111). Whilst I support this model, I would like to propose that the extent to which this concept is true has changed with the invention of the mobile phone. The possibility to monitor then selectively answer or reject incoming calls by using the caller identification function featured on most mobile phones has changed the traditional role of answerer."

Abstract
This paper examines and provides information on the roles and responsibilities that health care managers are tasked to accomplish in today's health care systems. Moreover, this paper examines how a health care manager's job as a leader who ensures a smooth and organized management and operation of health organizations, influences his/her perspective on health care professions. The paper emphasizes the importance of understanding how health care managers perceive their duties in health care service.
From the Paper
"The basic role every manager must be able to render is the task of providing good human relations to everyone at work. Through this role, the objective of accomplishing jobs in an environment where good work relationship is maintained can be made possible. In the field of health care, healthcare managers must have the ability to perform this basic responsibility. A healthcare manager should be a specialist in managing the condition of the healthcare staffs. Though this duty may be perceived as a simple task, it is critical that a good human resource management be delivered to a health organization to ease the stress and pressure that health care providers, such as the doctors and nurses, experience from their duties."
