    First I would begin by incorporating the star topology with an extended topology. I would do this because I can upgrade the network by replacing the problem components such as the 10mbs Ethernet hubs and the existing cables. I would replace the hub with a gigabit switch and add gigabit wireless router for the five computers to connect to the network. I would replace the 10 computer network interface cards with a 10/100/1000 Mbps NIC and replace the old cable with cat6 Ethernet cables and the five additional computer with wireless cards to negate the wiring problem. Finally, I would add a server for security and allow access for authorize users. I think all these components should help with the lag in the system when transferring large files and solve the bandwidth problems.

    In the case of Honig v. Doe, it was the first case to reach the Supreme Court dealing with discipline of special education students. This case took place in 1988 after two students from the San Francisco School District with emotional disabilities and aggressive tendencies were threatened with expulsion. John Doe (a pseudonym) was a socially and physically awkward 17 year-old who had difficulty controlling his impulses and anger. From early on in school, physical abnormalities, speech difficulties, and poor grooming habits resulted in his being the target of classmates teasing and ridiculing him. One day, in response to taunts from a fellow student at a developmental center for disabled students, he reacted in an explosive manner anticipated by his individualized education (IEP). He choked a student with enough force to leave abrasions on the boy’s neck. Afterwards, while being taken to the principal’s office, John kicked out a window. John was suspended from school for 5 days. The principal recommended that he be expelled. A lawsuit was filed, and the federal district court issued a temporary order directing the school to return John to his then current educational placement.…

The DRI is < 300 mg and my intake is 357 mg. The percentage for my cholesterol is 118.9%. I didn’t expect that my cholesterol will be this high. Having high cholesterol can cause major health problems. It can cause you to have heart problems. There can be a blockage in the arteries.
