Answer to Question 1

One technique for creating memorable, strong passwords is to base them on the first
letter of the words in a phrase. The phrase could be the title of a song or the first line of a poem
or one based on some fact about one's life. For example, one can take the phrase, I was born in
Rome, New York, before 1990. Using the first letters from that phrase and substituting the
character for the word before, one can create the password IwbiR,NY<1990.

Answer to Question 2

The characteristics of a strong password are:
1. It should have 10 or more characters, 12 is even better.
2. It should not contain one's user name, real name, or company name.
3. It should not contain a complete dictionary word in any language.
4. It should be different from the previous passwords the user has used.
5. It should contain both upper- and lowercase letters, numbers, and special characters (such as
 ;    ; &;  ( ) _ +;  =;       :  ; ' <; >;? , . /).

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
