...Becoming limitless is, according to MindValley, the highest rated course on their site, so, naturally, I wanted to take it! I like Vishen Lakhiani and have learned a lot from him over the years, which is another reason I was attracted to this course. I trust him and his ideas for increasing happiness and fulfillment and I've taken a few of the courses he sells through his company. And, after taking this course, I trust him (and his company) even more as my go-to guy for personal growth. If you are interested in the course, read my becoming limitless review to get a sense of what I experienced and what I think it can do for you. becoming limitless I have to start by saying that two days after I started Becoming Limitless, I sold a website...

...Three Main Business Structures Graling Carmichael FIN/571 Operations Management November 3, 2014 Danica Djordjevich Three Main Business Structures There are normally seven types of business used in the United States; sole proprietorship, partnership, limited liability partnership, limited liability company, S corporation, franchise, and corporation. For the purpose of this paper, I will concentrate on the three main business structures of sole proprietorship, partnerships and corporations and explain how each might or might not be advantageous. Sole Proprietorship A sole proprietorship is a business owned by one person. About three-fourths of the businesses in the US function with this business structure (Bates, Kidwell, & Parrino, 2012). This business structure usually consists of a owner and a small number of employees. One of the main advantages to this structure is it is the simplest type of business to start, and it is the least regulated by the government. Another benefit is that a sole proprietor keeps all the profits and has the authority to make all the decisions. And lastly, profits are subjected to lower income taxes compared to those businesses structured as corporations. Sole proprietorships have some disadvantages as well. The sole proprietor’s access to the capital is limited to personal funds plus any loans he or she can obtain. The sole proprietor is legally responsible for the business’s contracts. And, the sole proprietor is legally...

...but was not sure of how to take the right approach because I feel it is such a large topic and issue. Locating the information was a fairly easy for me because of my knowledge over the years by hunting with my dad. My biggest concern was narrowing my topic into something practical that covered the big picture of my point of view, but not every aspect. When I tried finding specific information it was difficult because I had altered my questions several times to make them very specific to give it an interesting bias and a to give a two sided controversial issue for the reader. Most of my research came from the internet but I did explore the Fresno State Madden Library and the local Fresno Library. Mangrum 2 By researching the internet I took a look closer at each amendment and dissect the protection that the Constitution provides is for the second amendment and why it has caused such a limitless controversy. Nevertheless, the Second Amendment for years, has given us the Right to Bear Arms. But has been the main reason why our nation has created such a ferocious debate about gun control and individual rights. Perhaps it is because so many guns already are in motion. Most people know that the Second Amendment gives individuals...

...John Reneil Acojido BSIT-107i Reaction Paper about Philippines will be number 16th largest economy by 2050 according to IMF It says that the Philippines and Peru are among emerging economies that would become much more prominent in the next few decades and the bank expected China to overtake the United States as the world’s biggest economy by 2050 and has the strong growth rates in other developing countries. And no doubt that China will soon be the powerful country than United States as it today. Because Chinise people are good at money and making money grow to its country. But by HSBC research says that our growing population and properly educated and trained Filipinos should help the Philippines generate more income and the fact that the Philippines have relatively low income gives much room for growth, and that its favourable fundamentals will help the country maximize that room. But it’s a long way before Philippines will be that rich again like Marcos era. Because nowadays, number of corruption is had been reported and says to the public by its people of the government. That’s why Philippines doesn’t improved as President Benigno Aquino says. And while the population grows fast, the Philippines economy is going down because so many Filipinos are unemployed. Over the last decade, the Philippines has transformed itself into a country with sustained structural current account surpluses and rapid reserve accumulation. And the remittance continue to contribute greatly...

...platform enable individuals to connect, compute, communicate, compete, and collaborate everywhere, and anywhere, anytime and all the time, and to access limitless amounts of information, services, and entertainment”(Kelly Rainer Jr. & Cegielski, 2011). “This platform operates without regard to geography, time, distance, or even language barriers” (Kelly Rainer Jr. & Cegielski, 2011).We use these devices in our homes, in our businesses, in our schools, on our cell phones, and in the public libraries. Now that our children in most cases have unlimited access to the Internet, there is a great possibility that children are exposed to inappropriate material and on predators. In this paper there will be discussion on what were the advances in information technology that resulted in new ethical issues necessitating the creation of Children Internet Protection Act, 2000 and Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act, 1998. Children Internet Protection Act, 2000 In December 2000, President Clinton signed into law The Children’s Internet Protection Act. Through the use of technology protection on measures, schools and public libraries are required to protect minors from the dangers of the Internet (Menuey, B. P. 2009). “The major concern with the implementation of the law is the inability to prevent over filtering for bona fide research” (Menuey, B. P. 2009). It is the school and libraries responsibility to place content filters on their systems in order to keep children from searching...

...Words are my instruments. I wield them not quite like weapons, but like gardening tools. They plant ideas, water them, let them bloom, flourish, and intertwine in someone’s mind. When I write these words down, they most often flow without interruption. Research papers, persuasive pieces, short stories, lines of poetry, college essays; I’ve proven myself to be more than adequate at expressing myself on paper. Yet, when faced with the challenge of writing about myself, I can never seem to commit. My junior year of high school, my English teacher tasked the class with writing a poem modeled after Walt Whitman’s “Song of Myself.” It was to be an ode to our individuality, our inner unique selves we rarely give others the permission to see. I couldn’t...

...immense amount information? “Getting information off the Internet is like taking a drink from a fire hydrant.” Mitch Kapor, variation of a quote by Jerome Wiesner With the changes in society our lives have all become busier. Having the use of the Internet drastically cuts down the time needed to fully research a project. We now have the ability to sit down in the comfort of our own home and glean as much information we need from the World Wide Web. This allows more individuals to fully realize their dreams of continuing their education while still managing their families and jobs. We have the ability to review, side by side, information from multiple sources. This allows us to better understand what we are researching by seeing what each side involved has to say. We then can formulate our own opinion and unique view point with that information. The strengths of the Internet are limitless; it is how we choose to use the Internet that determines its overall worth. Due to the changes in society and the need for speed we are also tempted to cut corners where and when we can. This can also translate to utilizing the Internet to cut those corners while doing research...

...Doe 12/16/2013 Problem Solving Theory Unit 1 Research Paper 1: Paradigm Shift Femto-Photography Introduction There are many cameras today that do generally the same thing, either zooming in or enhancing clarity, but in roughly 20 years’ time they all will still be doing those same simplistic functions. What if I told you about a new in-prototype-development-stages technology called “Femto-Photography” that allows you to capture light at a half of a trillionth of a second [1]. Summary of Key Findings With Femto-Photography it is possible to “see around objects and walls” [1]. Normally when you fire a laser pulse at a wall, nothing crazy happens. But, with Femto-Photography, you’d be able to see that laser pulse hit the wall, propagate, bounce off of any objects within that room, hit said wall from a different point, and detect that there was/were objects or people in the room [1]. In 20 years’ time, this technology could be insanely useful and effective in traffic accident scenarios, emergency rescue situations with firefighters, and the list goes on and on. With Femto-Photography, it is also possible to “see through objects” [1]. In 20 years’ time there could be an enormous amount of possible applications of this use, between checking the ripeness of a fruit without touching it, x-raying a person’s body without the use of radiation, and many other applications, the possibilities are virtually limitless [1]. With Femto-Photography, scientific exploration...

...Stem Cell Research Paper #1 It was 1998, when the method of obtaining stem cells from human embryos and growing them in a laboratory was discovered by scientists. These cells being grown were human embryonic stem cells, “…derived from embryos that develop from eggs that have been fertilized in vitro — in an in vitro fertalization clinic—and then donated for research purposes with informed consent of the donors,”(National Institutes of Health, 12, Nov. 2012).These embryos are created for reproductive purposes. Stem Cells have the remarkable potential to develop into many different cell types in the body, fundamentally being the source of all external/ internal organs and tissues. When a stem cell divides, this new cell can either remain a stem cell or become another specialized type of cell, such as: a brain cell, red blood cell, or a muscle cell Although stem cells are unspecialized cells, sometimes after a long period of inactivity, they’re able to renew themselves through cell division. Due to the limitless benefits to medicine and human health, many Americans support stem cell research, considering this treatment as a workable option to treat many injuries, diseases, and malfunctions. This research offers a great amount of hope for the advancement of medicine, because stem cells can grow into any kind of cell, that can replace damaged neural cells in the brain and spinal cord. Pro-choicers reject the care of a pre-embryo, and suppose that even though an embryo can develop...

...How using technology in the special needs classroom can help students learn Shannen M. Brown Florida A&M University Abstract In this research paper I will be examining the best ways to use technology within the special needs classroom to enhance learning. I will be talking about the different assistive technology that can be used, and the adaptive technology that can be used which will all increase the learning ability for these students. The special needs students are sometimes left behind because of their inability to use some of the same tools as the other students, in this research paper I will examine the different technologies and how they can help special needs students. As the world is becoming more and more dependent on technology every aspect of life has to assimilate to that idea including education. Today’s students are growing up with complete knowledge on certain devices that 20 years ago teachers and parents were just getting familiar with. It almost seems as if students are born with knowledge on how to use all these new and exciting things which should make it that much easier to incorporate technology within the classroom. From computers, to smart boards and to ipads our dependence on technology is increasing, increasing at such a high rate maybe pencil and paper will be obsolete in the near future. Within the mainstream classrooms teachers have been working hard to include computer time for the students to help enhance education while some...

... INF 103 Week 5 Final paper Christine Stagnetto-Zweig 20 May 2013 Social Media has been growing over last the decade and more and types of communication through social media have been developed. Chat rooms and instant messaging through AOL was a new form of communication when I was graduating high school. Today there are multiple forms of social media. You can tweet, post, or pin just about anything. You can reconnect with old friends, or make new friends. Small businesses are becoming much more mainstream, by taking advantage of online markets with the help of social media. If you can be found on Google you can be limitless. Social media is something I never heard of until well after high school. I graduated in 2002 and bullying at my high school was done face to face instead of on the internet. Bullying in the information age has been defined as Cyber Bullying. Cyber bullying can be defined as an aggressive, intentional act carried out by a group or individual, using electronic forms of contact, repeatedly and over time against a victim who can not easily defend themselves. (Research Briefs www.dfes.gov.uk/research ). There are 7 types of cyber bullying: text message, picture/video (via mobile phone cameras), phone call (via mobile phones), Email, chat-room, instant message, and through websites.

...Many coaches, athletic directors, players, fans have voiced their concern about the moral state of athletics in the United States. The public seems concerned about the moral failings in intercollegiate programs, yet the trend of unethical behavior seems to be increasing among college campuses. Unethical behavior is becoming more widespread throughout college programs based on NCAA violations. According to the Knights commission, “during the 1990's over half of Division I-A institutions were sanctioned or placed on probation for various rules violations” (as cited in Jordan, Greenwell, Geist, Pastore, & Mahony, 2004). The list of ethical dilemmas that leaders of athletic programs find themselves is almost limitless. According to Lumpkin and Doty (2014) some of these difficult circumstances include, “whether to play concussed athletes, change athletes’ grades to keep them eligible, violate recruiting rules, have tutors complete work for athletes, require athletes to spend more than the allowed number of hours dedicated to their sports, and give cash to players” (p. 4). This list is just a small sampling of situations where athletic programs have made unethical decisions in recent...
