...Online Dating: Better or worse than traditional? Amanda S. Wahl Post University In our society today everyone owns a smartphone or a tablet and is able to stay in contact with loved ones throughout or nation and others. With keeping in contact with loved ones via technology this has opened up a window for people to meet their matches through ways of online dating. People have gone to online dating due to insecurities or just plain curiosity, but there is still ways in which people still use traditional means of dating. So, why is there a cause of why one is better than the other? In online dating there is a lot of conflict with people not being who they truly are and rapes and murders but if you look at even in dating offline those are some of the key worries as well. Than in saying should we be in conflict with both? In my research about online dating and traditional dating, I have found that they both have positive and negative effects. With online dating a lot of people are insecure about themselves and are able to hide those insecurities behind a screen. I have had my own personal experiences with online dating and offline. I was always curious about why my friends were chatting it up with complete strangers so I tried it and I found my fiancée. We were together two and half years and separated because he had been cheating on me with girls online. For me it was an experience all in itself. My friends have had their shares of bad and good experiences whether it...

...Introduction Electronic communications have come a long way. It began in 1867 with the invention of the typewriter. Today we have various types of new technology, which makes us to do business faster and more efficient than ever before. Furthermore, electronic communication media such as TV, telephone and Internet have a variety of advantages such as higher speed instant transfers and the ability to send a large amount of data when compared with traditional methods such as mail, newspaper etc .Significantly, the various threats to this technology also increases day by day. And these threats can be categorized into various sections. Anyhow, as an Electrical Engineering student I can say that basically, Electrical vulnerabilities are seen in things such as spikes in voltage to different devices and hardware systems, or brownouts due to an insufficient voltage supply. Electrical threats also come from the noise of unconditioned power and, in some extreme circumstances, total power loss. And route (reason) to these situations can be divided into two categories. 1. NATURAL PROBLEMS. 2.HUMAN ACTIVITIES. http://henapcblog.blogspot.co.uk/(picture) Threats to the electronic communication Natural problems Natural effects have been a huge trouble for many technologies and for businesses then and now. This effects the electronic communication in a big level as well. Natural effects such as...

...Levels of Communication: 1. Interpersonal Behavior 2. Intrapersonal Behavior 3. Small Group 4. Large Group 5. Organizational 6. Public/Mass Language is perhaps the most pertinent tool in communications, we may infer to the semantics of each lexicon in the language to understand Language as a component on its own. But this is neither the only nor the foremost element of importance in communication due to the complex process by which culture and communication influence each other. Interpersonal Communication Communicating "one on one" with other human beings is generally referred to as interpersonal communication. It is the process by which people exchange information, feelings, and meaning through verbal and non-verbal messages: it is face-to-face communication. Interpersonal communication is not just about what is actually said - the language used - but how it is said and the non-verbal messages sent through tone of voice, facial expressions, gestures and body language. When two or more people are in the same place and are aware of each other's presence, then communication is taking place, no matter how subtle or unintentional. Without speech, an observer may be using cues of posture, facial expression, and dress to form an impression of the other's role, emotional state, personality and/or intentions. Although no communication may be intended, people receive messages through such forms of non-verbal behaviour. Elements of Interpersonal Communication ...

...Effective communication is a good way to understand a person or a situation that lets us resolve problems. It also helps build trust and respect between people. Having an effective communication is very vital in everybody’s life even in a business environment. The time I experienced an effective communication was when I went to Wal-Mart and bought an air mattress, when I was there I was able to witness how they communicated. They listened to me by making feel heard and understood, they avoided interrupting me, they were not judgmental, and showed interest in solving my problems. I moved into a new apartment with my family, and didn’t yet have enough money to buy a bed for my children, so I decided to go to Wal-Mart and purchase an air mattress. After buying it, and went home I found out that my wife had already bought a bed which made me to go back to return it on the same day, but when I got there I was told that do not accept a return or exchange of mattress. On hearing that I requested to speak to their manager, after she came and listened to my explanation she explained why they do not accept a return of mattress, but also understood why I had to return it. She did not judge me, but gave a listening ear, and then she asked me to wait while she contacted her superior. After doing that she came back with the good news telling me that I could return the mattress and get a full refund of my money back. The manager also gave me a piece of advice telling me not to always...

Individuals adapt their use of mass media to their own particular needs. Broadly speaking, we can say that people use the media in four ways: enjoyment, companionship, surveillance, and interpretation. Today media service is an anxious system of modern society. Electronic media, mainly television is the most important innovation in the communication technology. Teachers teach, government governs and religious leader preach but media totally changes the lifestyle of people and culture. Change is a natural phenomenon in the world.

...of ethical dilemmas and issues" (Orinsi, 1999). Therefore, employees feeling the pressure to perform may resort to unethical decisions in order to meet the goals that they feel are unreasonable. This can happen at any level of management (Orinsi, 1999). I work in a industry full of healthful living and fitness plans, one of the most recent corporate ethical dilemas I believe is reasonable to discuss, centers around Susan G. Komen (SGK) for the Cure and chosing cause-marketing partner, Kentucy Fried Chicken (KFC). Questions have been raised by various media, including The Washington Post and The Huffington Post (one specifically about pesticides and their link to corn, chickens and cancer) to which Andrea Rader' SGK's director of commnications, responded with dollar amounts of SGK's contributions to research and education. (Stengel, 2010) In the majority of its responses to the media, SGK seems to be saying "The end justifies the means." More money for our cause is all the matters, never mind the health implications for our supporters, KFC's customers, or for those fighting obesity and heart disease. Repeatedly the responses list what SGK will do with the money while failing to address the possibility of doing harm. It is not always about the bottom line, especially not...

...Communication: Past and Present HCS/320 July 25, 2013 Sandra Alviso Communication: Past and Present Every country suffers from natual dissasters. In 1979 at the Three Mile Island Nuclear Generating Station there was a malfunction that Lt. Gov. Bill Scranton miss communicated to the public. (Rose, 2011). In 2005 Mother Nature brought Hurricane Katrina to the coast Lousiana and, she devastated the city of New Orleans. Today our community’s natural disaster is a life-threatening biological agent which has spread in the water supply of several towns. Technology has changed the way a community in a disaserous situation communicates after the Three Mile Island and Hurricane Katrina. Comparing the way an Emergency Management Office communicates with the public and the groups involved, the advantages and challenges that come with the past and present communication technology, and the media opportunities used in today’s world. Individuals and Groups With a life-threatening situation there are many individuals and groups internally and externally that need to be notified of the situation. Within the office the entire staff needs to be aware of the seriousness of the situation. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and the Center for Disease Control Center (CDC) are a few federal agencies that need to be aware of the situation. The Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) Office of Emergency Communications (OEC) was directed by Congress to develop the first National...

...THE TWO-STEP FLOW OF COMMUNICATION A report called The People´s Choice* was made after analysing the process of decision-making during the course of an election campaign in 1940. After the analysis the authors suggested that the flow of mass communications may be less direct than was commonly supposed. Authors of The People Choice proposed the following Hypothesis: Influences deriving from the mass media first reach “opinion leaders” who, in turn, pass on what they read and hear to those of their everyday associates from whom they are influential. And that Hypothesis was called: “THE TWO-STEP FLOW OF COMMNICATION” Authors themselves intrigued by its implications for: • Democratic society: • They say it was better that people were more persuaded by the interaction with other people and that the influence of mass media was less automatic and less potent than had been assumed. • Social theory and communications research: • Hypothesis suggested that the image of modern urban society needed revision: image of the audience as a mass of disconnected individuals hooked up to the media but not to each other. IMPACTS OF THE HYPOTHESIS • The hypothesis in The People´s Choice, however, was not very well documented by empirical data: • The design of the study did not anticipate the importance which interpersonal relations would assume in the analysis of the data. • Interpersonal influence really attracted the attention of many researches of different kind, not just mass media researches:...

Looking for a reason that show why this is important and what has been created, what was already implemented, solutions from different institutions and what provisions exist for the next few years. Keywords • SAR (Specific Absorption Rate): unit of measurement that says the frequency range that can be absorbed by the human body. • RFID (Radio-frequency identification): is used to convert electromagnetic energy to electrical energy. Commonly used in tolls, parking lots and among others that uses a passive equipment to identify easily the customer. Another use for it has been to track animals, when a chip smaller that a grain of rice is implanted under the tissue of the animal and it can be read anytime to get an information needed. • iBMI (invasive brain machine interface) : it’s a type of device that goes in the patient’s brain to get data from it and send to a prosthesis to get movement that is needed. One real problem is how much battery the equipment is going to use to work. With this I found a good explanation about the problem at Wikipedia’s definition about Neuroprothetics: • Class-E power amplifiers...

...Introduction and Motivation Japan is a country that has always fascinated me. I love to travel. I have been to Europe, South America, Canada, and most states in the U.S. However, what draws me to Japan is the distinct difference in culture from anything I have seen before. Japan is one of the most beautiful countries in the world. There is an era of mystique behind the culture. One of the main reasons why I would like to see Japan is because I am curious about what the culture is like. My grandparents are very well-traveled. It is easier to ask them where they have not been compared to where they have been. I remember them telling me about how much they loved Japan, and out of all the countries they have seen, Japan was one of their favorites. They put their trip to Japan up there along with going on an African safari, seeing the Pyramids of Egypt, and bashing around the streets of London. My grandmother has brought back souvenirs and beautiful artwork from the places she has visited, and her most prized possessions are the paintings she has brought back from Japan. I would like to see the country for myself and get a glimpse of why my grandparents have put it so high on their list of favorite places visited. Area History and Customs The Japanese culture seen today dates back many centuries, starting from 710 and continuing to the year 1333. It is greatly influenced by the Nara, Hein, and Kamakura periods (Grayson, 2016). One of the main attractions to Japanese...

...Battle For Your Mind (3 of 8) Series: The Battle Is The Lord's Dr. Stan Coffey II Corinthians 10:3-5 I. SATAN'S DESIRE II. SATAN'S DEVICES III. SATAN'S DOORS IV. SATAN'S DEFEAT It is good to see you. If you have a copy of the word of God, I want you to take God's word and turn to Second Corinthians Chapter 10 and tonight we want to continue to think about the battle is the Lord's. We are thinking about spiritual warfare. I don't know about you but I am in a battle. Amen? I suspect you are too if you are a believer. Somebody said if you hadn't met the devil, you are probably going the same direction he is. Amen? So if you are going toward God, you are going to have the devil try to stand between you and God and not the devil literally but demonic influence, demons. We studied last seek how to overcome the devil and we spoke about that and we spoke about how Jesus had vanquished the devil. The devil has been vanquished but the devil has not been banished. That is, the Bible says that God now has given us authority over him and power over him but he is not yet in the lake of fire. There is no need for any believer to be defeated by Satan because the Bible says we have been given the victory, the victory has been won and we don't fight for victory, we fight from victory. But nevertheless, we are still in a battle. Now look at Second Corinthians 10 and verse 3, "FOR THOUGH WE WALK IN THE FLESH, WE DO NOT WAR AFTER THE FLESH. (FOR THE WEAPONS OF OUR WARFARE...

Without being trained neither in marketing or advertisement, Rosso defined and created the brand from scratch and after few years...
