Q: Click or double-click the Terminal app iconwhich resembles a black box with a white ">_" in itor press Ctrl+Alt+T at the same time. Type in traceroute followed by the IP address or the website you want to trace. For example, to trace the route from your router to a server for Facebook, you would type in traceroute www.facebook.com. This will run the "traceroute" command. In the left-hand side of each new line that appears, you should see the IP address of a router through which your trace request is processed. You'll also see the number of milliseconds it took for the process to occur on the far-right side of the line. If you see a line of asterisks appear for one of the routes, it means that the server to which your computer was supposed to connect timed out, thus resulting in a different address being tried. The traceroute command will time out after it reaches its destination.
A: Open Terminal on your computer. Type in the "traceroute" command. Press Enter. Review the route your request takes.

Article: The scope of your cost analysis will depend on its purpose, so before you can consider how broad you want your analysis to be, you need to know what you want ultimate questions you want the analysis to answer. If you are conducting a cost analysis merely to set a budget or plan strategically for the future, you would typically conduct a cost analysis that extended organization-wide. On the other hand, a narrower or more specific purpose, such as determining whether to bill for a particular service (and how much), might require a narrower cost analysis that only addressed the costs of that particular service. In addition to figuring out why you need a cost analysis, you also need to know whose cost you're going to analyze. This will determine what data you collect and how you classify it. For example, you may be interested in the cost to your clients of offering a particular service. You would look at costs from their perspective, taking into account the amount you bill (or plan to bill) for the service, transportation to your location, and other costs. If you're simply looking at the cost of the program to your organization, you'll look at your organizational expenses generally. You might also look at opportunity costs, such as whether offering one program means you will be unable to offer other programs. How you delineate your programs will determine how you allocate costs for the purpose of cost analysis. If your organization runs very distinct programs, divisions may be obvious. For overlapping programs or programs that share resources, determine how to separate them. Programs that overlap to a significant degree may be lumped together, rather than evaluated separately. Go with what makes the most sense for the operations of your organization, avoiding duplication of efforts wherever possible. To determine whether programs should be separated, look at the services offered by each program, the resources needed to provide those services, and who those services are provided to. If two programs are the same in 2 out of 3 of those dimensions, they probably should be treated as one for the purposes of cost analysis. How you categorize and calculate costs depends on whether you're analyzing those costs over the long term (say, months or years) or over the short term (a few weeks, or maybe even a single application). For example, if you're trying to decide whether to charge for a specific service, you would first determine how much that service costs you to provide. You would then do a longer term cost analysis to determine whether your organization can sustain a loss for providing that service. It's generally best to choose a time period for which you can acquire accurate revenue data, rather than estimates. This will help if you plan to use your cost analysis as a basis for further economic evaluation.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Figure out why you need a cost analysis. Identify the perspective for your cost analysis. Differentiate the programs you offer. Set the time period you want to evaluate.

Q: In general, children are more likely to get ear infections than adults. This is because the eustachian tubes (tubes running from the middle of each ear to the back of your throat) are smaller in children and more prone to fill with fluid. Children also have weaker immune systems than adults and are also more prone to viral infections such as colds. Anything that blocks the eustachian tube can cause an ear infection. There are other risk factors for an ear infection, including: Allergies Respiratory infections such as colds and sinus infections Infection or trouble with the adenoids (lymph tissue in your upper throat area) Tobacco smoke Excess mucus or saliva, such as that produced during teething Living in a cold climate Changes in altitude or climate Not being breastfed as an infant Recent illness Attending daycare, especially a larger daycare with many children A middle ear infection (acute otitis media) is the most common type of ear infection and hence recognizing its symptoms is very important. Middle ear infection is caused by a virus or bacteria. The middle ear is the space just behind the eardrum that contains the small bones that pass vibrations to the inner ear. When the area becomes filled with fluid, bacteria and viruses can get in and cause an infection. An ear infection often occurs after a respiratory infection such as a cold, although severe allergies may also bring one on. Symptoms of a middle ear infection include: Ear pain or an earache Feeling of fullness in the ear Feeling ill Vomiting Diarrhea Hearing loss in the infected ear Tinnitus Dizziness Ear drainage Fever, especially in children " Swimmers' ear, also known as otitis externa or an "external ear infection," is an infection of the outer ear canal caused by bacteria or fungi. Moisture is a common culprit for this type of infection (hence the name), but scratching or inserting things into the ear canal can also leave you prone to infection. Symptoms may begin as mild but often worsen, and include: Itching in your ear canal Redness inside the ear Discomfort that worsens if you pull or push on your outer ear Ear drainage (begins clear and odorless, may progress to pus) More severe symptoms include: Feeling of fullness or blockage Decreased hearing Severe pain that radiates outward to your face or neck Swelling of neck lymph nodes Fever Young children may display different symptoms of ear infection than older children and adults. Because young children often cannot communicate how they're feeling, look for the following symptoms: Tugging, pulling or scratching the ear Banging the head around Fussiness, irritability, or incessant crying Difficulty sleeping Fever (especially for infants and very young children) Fluid drainage from the ear Clumsiness or balance problems Trouble hearing Most ear infections can be treated at home, and many go away on their own. However, if you or your child experience certain symptoms, you should contact your doctor immediately. These symptoms include: Blood or pus in ear drainage (may look white, yellow, green, or pinkish/red) Continued high fever, especially if it is over 102F (39C) Dizziness or vertigo Stiff neck Tinnitus Pain or swelling behind or around the ear Ear pain that lasts more than 48 hours
A:
Know who is most at risk for an ear infection. Recognize the symptoms of a middle ear infection. Distinguish between a middle ear infection and "swimmers' ear. Look for signs of ear infection in children. Know when to seek immediate medical attention.
