...| | Telecommunications in Sudan PREPAID BY: DAOUD ADAM CEO, GREENWAY COMM. PHILADELPHIA USA Revolutionary advances in information and communications technologies (ICT) are transforming the world economy and presenting new challenges to all countries. The challenges are to compete effectively in an emerging information-based economy in which computing and communications play a central role, as well as to take full advantage of the enormous potential of information and communications in advancing all aspects of economic, social and cultural life. Sudan is no exception. The Sudanese government has emphasized that economic reform is inseparable from social reform and that the highest priorities for the coming development phase are the reduction of unemployment, the growth of exports and the modernization of education. Realizing how a strong communications and information technology sector would contribute to high and sustainable economic growth for the Sudanese economy, the government is adopting the development of information and communications technology as a national priority. The formation of the new Ministry of Communications & Information Technology (MCIT) in October 1996 marked a new era for Sudan’s telecommunications and information technology sector characterized by a new regulatory framework and a more liberalized market. A new National ICT Plan has...

...Wednesday, Sep 3, 2014 06:15 AM CST Robert Reich: College is a ludicrous waste of money The former secretary of labor on our broken higher ed model and how we can open more gateways to the middle class Robert Reich, ROBERTREICH.org This originally appeared on Robert Reich's blog. This week, millions of young people head to college and universities, aiming for a four-year liberal arts degree. They assume that degree is the only gateway to the American middle class. It shouldn’t be. For one thing, a four-year liberal arts degree is hugely expensive. Too many young people graduate laden with debts that take years if not decades to pay off. And too many of them can’t find good jobs when they graduate, in any event. So they have to settle for jobs that don’t require four years of college. They end up overqualified for the work they do, and underwhelmed by it. Others drop out of college because they’re either unprepared or unsuited for a four-year liberal arts curriculum. When they leave, they feel like failures. We need to open other gateways to the middle class. Consider, for example, technician jobs. They don’t require a four-year degree. But they do require mastery over a domain of technical knowledge, which can usually be obtained in two years. Technician jobs are growing in importance. As digital equipment replaces the jobs of routine workers and lower-level professionals, technicians are needed to install, monitor, repair, test, and upgrade all the equipment. ...

...Scarce skills Jobs are scarce. What plan can you make to secure a job in today’s world of work? The answer is to study for a scarce skill! What is a scarce skill? A scarce skill is a qualification or job for which there are too little people in South Africa doing the job. Government would like to set South Africa on a winning economic pathway, by developing the skills of our people and assisting people to find employment more easily. Studying for a scarce skill would not only mean helping your country, but also helping yourself! A scarcity in qualifications or jobs, can come from the fact that the occupation is new and very few people have studied to fill these posts. It can also happen that people have not chosen to study for the course and a scarcity developed in the job. Sometimes special experience is required, for example people with years of experience of management, or in other cases people are needed in certain towns, cities or geographical areas. Scarcity can also be in terms of equity, for example too few women enter into a specific career. 2 How can you benefit? Choose to study for a scarce skill. Not only will you be able to find a job more easily, but chances are that you will be paid better and progress to the top of your career path more easily, because employers will snap you up.

...Expert Committee Committee on Radio Astronomy Frequencies CRAF Expert Committee Committee on Radio Astronomy Frequencies What is the Committee on Radio Astronomy Frequencies? Established in 1988, the Committee on Radio Astronomy Frequencies (CRAF) represents all the major radio astronomical observatories in Europe. Its mission is to coordinate the protection of the frequency bands used by radio astronomers in Europe to keep them free from interference. This task will remain indispensable for astronomical science in the foreseeable future. The committee’s pursuit of this goal is becoming increasingly difficult because of the steady increase in global use of the electromagnetic spectrum for both terrestrial and space-borne communications such as mobile telephones. CRAF is working to address this issue by coordinating a common policy on spectrum protection for the European research communities in radio astronomy, passive remote sensing and related sciences; representing this policy and these communities in interactions with the relevant national and supranational entities at the European and international level; and initiating and encouraging scientific studies aimed at reducing interference and the effects of interference at source. At the European level, the committee plays a key role in defining, coordinating and articulating the frequency needs of the radio astronomy community. CRAF is an Expert Committee of the European Science Foundation (ESF). The ESF is an independent...

...of particular goods and services. As a result of business in the economy, the variety, quality, and quantity of goods and services available to consumers increases, while the prices of goods and services decrease. Because business is present in the economy, we are able to consume and enjoy many more goods and services than we otherwise could if we had to produce everything on our own. This makes for a higher standard of living and quality of life. 2. Compare and contrast the roles of for-profit and nonprofit organizations in the economy. Non-profit organizations are seen as more caring by consumers and often work very closely with businesses to improve our way of live. These organizations tend to focus more on areas such as health, art, education, and their end goal is not focused on profit. While one would typically thing that a non-profit wouldn’t have much of an effect on the economy, actually the opposite is true. Non-profits employ one in ten workers, take in revenue, and contribute in many ways to both economic stability and growth. They have become economic magnets for communities which draw in even more investment. A for-profit organization is seen as a business which is focused on earning a profit, or the money that is earned in sales or revenue. The main goal of every for-profit business is to make a profit by delivering great value to their customers. Although non-profits and for-profits go about things different ways, they both rely on the various factors...

...was due to the Roman Empire also devising what might be described as a mail or postal system, in order to centralize control of the empire from Rome. This allowed for personal letters and for Rome to gather knowledge about events in its many widespread provinces. More advanced postal systems later appeared in the Islamic Caliphate and the Mongol Empire during the Middle Ages. The term "media" in its modern application relating to communication channels is traced back to its first use as such by Canadian communications theorist Marshall McLuhan, who stated in Counterblast (1954): "The media are not toys; they should not be in the hands of Mother Goose and Peter Pan executives. They can be entrusted only to new artists, because they are art forms." By the mid-1960s, the term had spread to general use in North America and the United Kingdom. ("Mass media", in contrast, was, according to H.L. Mencken, used as early as 1923 in the United...
