			Cisco Physical Security Solutions: Improve School Safety: Safe and secure campuses are better learning environments. They help attract and retain teachers. Preventing theft and vandalism frees up money for 21st century learning programs. And schools need to issue timely warnings about threats to students, parents, and employees. To help create a safe and secure environment, your school has developed plans, trained staff, and implemented systems such as video surveillance cameras, physical access controls, and paging and radio systems. All of these are wise investments, helping to protect against threats ranging from bullying to fights, from smoking to vandalism, from bomb threats to natural disasters. And yet these investments in physical security can be far more effective and cost less to manage when you tie them together over your existing IP network.

			Testing the Reliability and Safety of Photovoltaic Modules: Failure Rates and Temperature Effects: Photovoltaic modules are designed to meet the reliability and safety requirements of national and international test standards. Qualification testing is a short-duration (typically, 60-90 days) accelerated testing protocol, and it may be considered as a minimum requirement to undertake reliability testing. The goal of qualification testing is to identify the initial short-term reliability issues in the field, while the qualification testing/certification is primarily driven by marketplace requirements. Safety testing, however, is a regulatory requirement where the modules are assessed for the prevention of electrical shock, fire hazards, and personal injury due to electrical, mechanical, and environmental stresses in the field. This paper examines recent reliability and safety studies conducted at TÜV Rheinland PTL's solar module testing facility in Arizona.

A major factor in the overall success of an organizations' safety efforts is how well an organization balances the communications aspects of their behavioral safety efforts and the safety management systems that provide the technical knowledge, training, systems, standards and measurements to provide a safe and healthy work environment.
