...Why I think we should watch The Men Who Built America in class. We are learning mainly about American history in class, right? Well this show is a little more advanced in history than what we are learning now. If we have spare time, like before Christmas break and you want to do something fun, but yet educational at the same time, this the best answer for you. Now this show has four episodes in it, each one is an hour and a half long. If you are teaching American history this show is well-suited for this class, not only is it history but it explains why things are like they are today. For example, John D. Rockefeller is featured in this show. Rockefeller reciprocated the instery of oil. So before Rockefeller, oil was used in lamps, oil lamps were the primary source of artificial light then. There was a big demand on oil then, and Rockefeller decided he will make more money if he didn't need to pay a railroad company to transport his oil, so he invented a new way to transport oil. This new way revolutionized the way oil is transported throughout the country, piping. Rockefeller thought that piping was a good idea to transport his oil all over the country, and it was. In fact it was such a great that more than 100 years later, we are still using it. This is just one example of how things are today. So you might have heard of US steel? Well if you ever wondered how the steel companies, or how large companies were made and ran, then this show will explain a lot. Have you ever heard...

...1. Anwar and Leah are concerned about protecting the funds in their estate after it is passed to their children. They have tried to structure their wills in as optimal a manner as possible, but their advisor has told them that once the children receive the funds, it is up to the children to take certain steps in order to protect the funds into the future. Explain some of the steps that their children (i.e. not Anwar or Leah) could do to help protect their inheritances. 5 MARKS (5 marks) Anwar and Leah, in order to protect the funds in your estate after it is passed onto your children David, Amal and Lisa. There are many steps we can take. However, it is not always possible to protect assets from claims by a former spouse or partner, especially since we are in a society where the statistics show that 50% of all marriages will end with a divorce. There are a few precautions your children can take to protect their inheritances. In David's instance since he is currently the only one married and without a marriage contract, if he wants all inheritances to remain exempt from his current spouse, he would need to discuss with his wife about setting up a marriage contract. This could be a difficult conversation to have and may put a strain on the relationship between David and his wife. She would have to agree on setting up a marriage contract and agree to the terms of being excluded from his inheritances from his parents. A marriage contract is a legal document that discloses all...

...Data Classification Standard is a guideline of how a business or organization should handle as well as secure their different array of data. With this particular report it will describe the “Internal Use Only” data of an Investment firm. Internal use only should tell you that this is information that is seen by employees of a company and no one else. There are 3 domains that could be under this umbrella of internal use only these would be the User Domain, Workstation Domain and the LAN domain. First we have the User Domain which defines the employees that will access the company’s information systems. This particular domain is the weakest link in the domain infrastructure due the users on this system that don’t think about the vulnerabilities and threats which include lack of user awareness, apathy towards policies, policy violations, downloads of personal or files that could malicious. Each of these risks is presented on an everyday basis that could compromise a company’s internal data. Secondly, you have the workstation domain, which is the domain where most of the users connect to the organizations infrastructure. This domain should require very tight security as well as access rights. Meaning, each user on the domain should only have the right to access what they need to be able to do their job productively and no more. This will have an impact in lowering the chance of breach in security. Some threats with this domain include; Unauthorized access to workstations...

...Introduction There are many ways to classify marine organisms. Though there is many ways, there are seven main ways; Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, and Species. The Firefly Squid, or Watasenia Scintillans is classified as such; Kingdom: Animalia, Phylum: Mollusca, Class: Cephalopoda, Order: Teuthida, Family: Enoploteuthidae, Genus: Watasenia, Species: Scintillans (https://en.wikipedia.org). The kingdom Animalia refers to the organism being an animal; multicellular, motile (meaning it is able to move on its own and impulsively at some point in its life), and being eukaryotic (https://en.wikipedia.org). The Phylum Mollusca is home to most of the familiar spineless species we know, or invertebrates. This consists of clams, slugs,...
