It is the fourth largest country in area after Russia, Canada and USA has experienced multifarious changes in its economic system which has seen it become the second largest economy in the world after USA if measured on the Purchasing Power Parity (PPP) scale. However, China still considered as an emerging economy as per capita incomes fall in the lower-middle level, China is making its presence felt in the global stage by taking big strides in opening up its economy to international trade. There are many economic problems faced by China during the years.

...The Collapse of Webvan | |The grocery business is gigantic, with annual retail store sales that are estimated at $650 billion. However, it is a very tough business because the profit margins are tiny, only 1 to 2 percent of sales. Moreover, the industry is very price competitive. Yet Webvan, which was founded in late 1996, chose groceries as the way to establish itself as a Web-based powerhouse. [pic]Aside from the tiny profit margin, on-line grocery sales face other problems. Most successful Web retail sales involve delivery several days after ordering via parcel delivery services such as UPS or FedEx. Yet people usually need grocery delivery right away, and the groceries usually include such spoilables as milk, ice cream, fresh vegetables, and meats. [pic]A number of companies, including Peapod, HomeGrocer.com, Kozmo.com, and Safeway have struggled to establish on-line grocery businesses. Webvan Group Inc. of Foster City, California (in the Silicon Valley), was the brainchild of Louis Borders, the cofounder of the very successful Borders bookstore chain. Webvan’s founders and management believed they could succeed where others were faltering by using a different business model. The company carried about 20,000 high-quality grocery items, including fresh fruits and vegetables, meats, and frozen foods, and delivered the orders to customers throughout a large metropolitan region. Webvan had no retail outlets, but instead it operated out of massive regional distribution centers...

...Name Justin Chao Wang Date 2014/1/27 Room CTH 225 Diagnostic Essay Today i will talk about some question about intellectual autonomy and intellectual courage. I think this is a very interesting question in my life, because i don’t understand what is the intellectual autonomy. However, I have had this problem for a long time. Intellectual autonomy is means that you have freedom, intellectually, to make decisions regarding your life and your intellectual pursuits in particular. The ideal of critical thinking is to learn to think for oneself, to gain command over one’s thought processes. I want to solve this problem because i know that i dislike to make a choice. When I was a young boy, I had two best friend and they have different tutoring class in the same afternoon . And they both want me play with them. This is a difficult choice for me. After school , I went home and ask my mom what should I do. My mom told me , you could pick some one class and told your friends. But I did a bad choice that i was not pick any class. After that, my friends dislike play with me. I find i lose two friends. I think make a choice is too difficult for me. When i grow up, I realize this problem. And I ‘m learning to solve some problem by myself. Intellectual autonomy can be good, or not-so-good. Freedom means freedom to make poor choices, also. Implicit with the notion of autonomy (self determination) is that the person who is free will also suffer (or enjoy) the...

...With Big Data Comes Big Responsibility (https://hbr.org/2014/11/with-big-data-comes-big-responsibility) Big data and the “internet of things”—in which everyday objects can send and receive data—promise revolutionary change to management and society. But their success rests on an assumption: that all the data being generated by internet companies and devices scattered across the planet belongs to the organizations collecting it. What if it doesn’t? Alex “Sandy” Pentland, the Toshiba Professor of Media Arts and Sciences at MIT, suggests that companies don’t own the data, and that without rules defining who does, consumers will revolt, regulators will swoop down, and the internet of things will fail to reach its potential. To avoid this, Pentland has proposed a set of principles and practices to define the ownership of data and control its flow. He calls it the New Deal on Data. It’s no less ambitious than it sounds. In this edited conversation with HBR senior editor Scott Berinato, Pentland talks about how the New Deal is being received and how it’s already working—in a little town in the Italian Alps. HBR: How did you come to be concerned about data collection and privacy? Pentland: In my research at the Media Lab, I use wearable sensor technology that measures tone of voice, movement, gesticulation—innate behaviors—to collect very personal data about how people communicate with one another. When I started that work, I was impressed by the power of the data being generated...

...The contract between Span Systems and Citizen- Schwarz AG (C-S), was for Span to develop new banking software for C-S. The contract has a one year timeline, and for $6 million. Due to unseen challenges in the development of the software, Span has struggled to meet the milestones of the contract. C-S’s IT Outsourcing Director Leon Ther has been monitoring Span’s progress and quality of the deliverables. Requirements for the software on both the user and system sides have grown more complicated unexpectedly. These changes in requirements are a driving force behind the slip of schedule and escaping defects. C-S has changed their project management which has added to the sign off process on milestone achievements. C-S and Span has reached a point of conflict in their contract. C-S has demanded the code for the software, has claimed a low level in Span’s quality on deliverables. Span has reached the point where they feel requirements have grown and that C-S’s project management has slowed the project down. The three areas of the contract that I feel Span should use as negotiating points are; ‘Communications Reporting’, ‘Requirements Change’, and ‘Internal Escalation Procedure for Dispute’. Once the notice that C-S may have given some data to an Indian Company, I quickly selected ‘Intellectual Property Rights’ over Communication Reporting. The response from Ther was mixed, he denies any IPR violations, denies any change in requirements, but does agree that Internal Escalation Procedures...

...Francisco J. PÉREZ LATRE (2011) retrieved from http://www.unav.es/fcom/comunicacionysociedad/es/articulo.php?art_id=378. The brave new world of social media has captured the attention of scholars and book writers around the world, which has led to the publication of a number of works about Twitter, Facebook YouTube and the like. Most of these books are practical and industry-based in nature and do not consider in-depth the social media impact in audiences and communication strategies. Nevertheless, the vitality of the editorial market underlines the research relevance than social media and social networks are acquiring. Boyd and Ellison (2008: 210-230) have summarized recent research and social network history. The authors, Berkeley and Michigan State professors, consider social Networks as increasingly attractive for researchers, fascinated for their usefulness, audience size and market research potential. They define social networks are web-based services that allow users to build a public or semi-public within a system; articulate a user list with shared relationships; and observe the list of relationships of those persons with other people within the system” (Boyd and Ellison, 2008: 211). Boyd and Ellison explain that SixDegrees (1997) was chronologically the first social network but disappeared in 2000. The most important current social networks were established after 2002: Fotolog (2002), LinkedIn (2003), MySpace (2003), Last.FM (2003), Hi5 (2003), Orkut (2004), Flickr (2004)...

...关于激活： 1、硬刷BIOS。微软和PC厂商为了减轻对于操作系统的激活负荷，在品牌机实行了区别于联网激活的“SLIC 2.1激活机制”：当操作系统启动时，就会自行扫描BIOS里的公钥和标识(SLIC 2.1)，以及系统中的“OEM密钥”和“OEM证书”。如果三者完全匹配、验证一致，系统就会被识别为免激活的OEM版本。这是号称“完美”的激活方法，但是有一定的风险，不过好好操作不乱来的话一般不会出问题。采取此方法的用户不是最多的。通过“硬刷”激活，你的电脑和系统就已经基本与品牌机别无二致。虽然理论上适用于任何电脑、任何BIOS，但是理论和实践总会有一定差距的。这种差距，首先源于使用者对BIOS及其SLIC 2.1的了解深度和驾驭能力，其次源于“硬刷”工具的匹配以及某些BIOS对SLIC 2.1的屏蔽。不建议新手采用此方法，决定硬刷的在刷之前一定要多在网上、论坛搜索下相关经验，准备充分再实施。 2、软激活。通过运行“软改”破解工具，就会给C盘根目录注入一个随系统启动的优先加载项。这个优先加载项的作用就是：在内存中将“SLIC 2.1”与主板BIOS“映射”实施有机结合，从而像OEM品牌机一样实现对于操作系统的“免激活”。采取软激活的用户很多，此方法对计算机无任何伤害。但是其实，微软对“软改”破解激活了如指掌，之所以默许毫无限制的激活，无非是扩大市场占有率的一种策略。软激活工具很多，常见的有WIN7_Activation，oem7v7.2，PCSKYS_Windows7Loader，Windows 7 All versions PlusPatch 7 Final By Orbit30等等。 要说明的是：无论是“硬刷”还是“软改”，共同之处是：激活机理完全一样；不同之处是：采取了不同的方式。如问哪种方式效果更好？简要回答就是：“硬刷”更彻底；“软改”更简单。 3、电话激活。如一枚“走红”的Windows 7旗舰版“激活密钥”--TFP9Y-VCY3P-VVH3T-8XXCC-MF4YK，安装Windows 7旗舰版之后，在确保网络畅通的前提下执行以下操作：鼠标右键 / “计算机”属性 /“更改产品密钥” /“使用自动的电话系统来激活”/ 键入以上“激活密钥”，经微软“激活服务器”联网验证，最终结果无外乎是两种：其一，十分幸运地通过了“微软正版密钥验证”直接激活了操作系统。其二，会跳出第一幅界面。即便如此，只要具有基本的“耐心”和“细致”，成功激活仍然是很容易的。 4、传说中的“神KEY”。无需破解即可激活Windows 7旗舰版的“神Key”。第一枚“神Key”：TFP9Y-VCY3P-VVH3T-8XXCC-MF4YK；第二枚“神Key”：KH2J9-PC326-T44D4-39H6V-TVPBY。这两枚“神Key”，都是源于微软对于Windows 7使用者的“无偿奉送”，没有“以讹传讹”的激活次数限制(至于何时停止使用，完全取决于微软决策)。微软再次放出的两枚“神Key”，与此前已经提供的两枚“神Key”异曲同工：安装Windows 7 32位(x86)/64位(x64)中、英文旗舰版后，在确保网络畅通的前提下：其一，如果“手气壮、运气好”，即可实现一键直接激活；其二，如果手气运气不佳，100%可以采取电话激活。现提供两枚最新“神Key”：第三枚“神Key”：236TW-X778T-8MV9F-937GT-QVKBB；第四枚“神Key”：87VT2-FY2XW-F7K39-W3T8R-XMFGF。近日新放出2枚Key：236TW-X778T...

...University of the People Written Assignment Unit 5 PSYC 1111 – Introduction to Health Psychology. Psychological Influences on Pain Perception: The Gate Control Theory and the Power of Blogging. Pain is often considered a purely physical sensation, but in reality, it is a complex experience heavily influenced by psychological factors. Effective pain management requires an understanding of these factors. In order to better understand how pain is perceived, this paper first examines Melzack and Wall's (1965) Gate Control Theory of Pain. It then makes a connection between this theory and Tsai et al. (2018) Research on the benefits of blogging for chronic pain and illness. A Pain Theory Based on Gate Control The Gate Control Theory proposes a mechanism for modulating pain via the spinal cord. According to the theory, small nerve fibers, or A fibers, carry nociceptive (pain) signals from the periphery to the spinal cord. Following this, an interneuron network controls a "gate" that these signals pass through. Large nerve fibers (A fibers) carrying non-painful sensory information, such as touch, can open or close the gate controlling the activity of these interneurons....
