INPUT ARTICLE: Article: As a certified PMP, you must regularly renew your certification by participating in PMI’s Continuing Certification Requirements (CCR) program. The CCR program requires you to earn a total of 60 PDUs every 3 years. Typically, 1 PDU is equivalent to 1 hour of project management training. At least 35 of these PDUs must be centered around continuing education. This requirement is further broken down into 3 categories:  A minimum of 8 PDUs must focus on technical project management skills A minimum of 8 PDUs must focus on leadership skills. A minimum of 8 PDUs must focus on strategic and business management. The additional 11 PDUs can relate to any of the three categories. This includes activities such as teaching project management courses, volunteering, or working as a professional—anything that allows you to use and share your skills and knowledge to build up and contribute to the profession.  You can earn a maximum of 25 PDUs from giving back, but there is no minimum. That means this is an optional way to earn PDUs. You could, if you like, earn all your PDUs through continuing education. Working as a professional only counts towards a maximum of 8 PDUs. Once you’ve completed your 60 PDUs, make sure that you record these hours through your personal dashboard on the PMI website. This is where you can monitor your existing PDUs and claim new ones.  There is no cost to maintain your membership, other than the costs associated with acquiring PDUs. The PDUs are self-reported—although you are asked to provide information about the provider who offered the training or course and the dates you attended, you do not need to provide further evidence of your participation.

SUMMARY: Earn a minimum of 35 Professional Development Units (PDUs) through education. Complete a maximum of 25 PDUs by giving back to the profession. Report PDUs through the PMI website to renew certification.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: This gives you the freshest, biggest leaves to work with. If your basil plant has started flowering, pinch off the flowers to help redirect the energy back to growing basil leaves. The flowers will be visible, making it easy to spot when the plant has started flowering. You can use your fingers to pinch the leaves off, or you can use sharp scissors to cut them. Picking off a few leaves won’t harm the plant in any way. Try not to remove more than a third of the leaves on the plant unless you plan to harvest all of it. This helps ensure your plant has enough energy to keep growing. This will give you a stem’s worth of basil leaves. Cutting above the leaves allows new growth to continue, which will preserve your basil plant for a longer stretch of time. Cutting stems just below a pair of leaves may prevent the stem from growing further.

SUMMARY: Harvest your basil before it flowers. Pick off the leaves when you need small amounts of basil. Cut right above where 2 large leaves meet for larger amounts.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: " Begin with a downward stroke from the top line to the bottom line. Curve the stroke and loop it back to the top line to create an oval. Then, make a stroke downward form the top of the oval and extend the stroke upward, just above the bottom line. An uppercase "A" in cursive is similar to a lowercase "a" in cursive. It should touch the top and bottom lines. ” Start by making a small loop at the top line, extending from the right to the left. At the end of the loop, make a large curve to the right, forming an oval that touches the top line. The end of the stroke will overlap with the middle of the small loop at the top of the “o.” The letters “O,” “M,” and “N” in uppercase follow the same strokes as lowercase. The only difference is that the uppercase letters cover more space on the line. ” Begin with a straight downward stroke from the top to the bottom line. Then, make a rounded curve to the side from the top of the stroke to just above the dotted line on the paper. Make another rounded curve from the middle of the stroke to the bottom of the stroke. Curve the stroke to make a small loop and end by sweeping the stroke to the right, just above the bottom line. An uppercase “B” is written very differently in cursive than a lowercase “b.” You may need to practice it a few times to get it right. ” Start by making a small vertical loop that extends down from the top line. Then, curve to the left to form a larger vertical loop that extends to just above the dotted line. Make a small loop over the dotted line and curve downward to form a larger loop that touches the bottom line. End by extending the bottom loop upward so it sits just above the bottom line. An “E” in cursive looks a lot like a backwards “3.” " Begin with a loop towards the right, just below the dotted line. Curve the loop upward until it touches the top line. Then, extend the stroke downward to the left until it hits the bottom line. Draw a small loop upward towards the right and then extend the stroke so it slopes just below the bottom line. " Start with a small loop that extends downward to the right. Curve the stroke to the bottom line and then pull it back up so it sits just above the dotted line. Draw a slanted line downward so it extends past the bottom line and then curve it upward towards the right.

SUMMARY: Try "A. Try “O. Practice “B. Do “E. Practice "L. Practice "Y.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Depending on your system, this might be called  Terminal, Xterm, Shell, Command Prompt, or something similar. It can usually be found in the Accessories folder in your Applications (or the equivalent). Type ifconfig -a and press ↵ Enter. If you are denied access, enter sudo ifconfig -a and enter your password when prompted. Scroll until you find your network connection (the primary Ethernet port is labeled eth0). Look for the HWaddr entry. This is your MAC address.

SUMMARY:
Open the terminal. Open the interface configuration. Find your MAC address.
