...Wireless Technologies Proposal Las cadenas de redes tecnológicas inalámbricas están cambiando la forma en que las personas se conectan y se comunican entre sí. Este tipo de tecnología se ha convertido muy popular desde sus primeros días de introducción y uso. Si se necesita hacer una llamada desde un móvil, verificar correo electrónico, recibir un mensaje, hacer data portable sin tener problemas de conectores, todo lo que se necesita es obtener tecnología inalámbrica. Las tecnologías inalámbricas comenzaron como parte de un proyecto de investigación de la Universidad de Hawái. Sorprendentemente, se han mantenido por poco menos de 30 años. Los estudiantes residentes en las islas de Hawái necesitaban tecnologías inalámbricas para conectarse en las cuatro universidades existentes. El resultado de las investigaciones fue un programa llamado Alohanet, el cual fue predecesor del actual WLAN. Aunque en sus comienzos Alohanet no estaba organizada y contenía un conglomerado de redes, la misma alcanzaba su meta y cumplía su propósito de transmisión de data alcanzando 1-2 Mbps, la cual era bien impresionante para su tiempo. En los pasados años las redes tecnológicas inalámbricas han visto varias mejoras gradualmente y adaptaciones de protocolo que a su vez han crecido para alcanzar las necesidades de la industria. Las redes tecnológicas inalámbricas actualmente se han convertido más populares en la sociedad. Las agencias de gobierno, lugares públicos y negocios utilizan dicha...

...Che Guevara Ernesto Guevara de la Serna was born in Rosario, Argentina, but the exact date of his birth is unknown. He was the eldest of five children in a family of mixed Spanish and Irish descent; both his father and mother were of Basque ancestry. Guevara's family was an upper-class family with some leftist views. He became known for his dynamic personality and radical perspective even as a boy. While a student, Guevara spent long periods traveling around Latin America. Through his first-hand observations of poverty, oppression, and powerlessness of the masses, Guevara soon became highly influenced by his informal Marxist studies. He concluded that the only solution for Latin America's economic and social inequities lay in revolution. His travels also inspired him to look upon Latin America not as a collection of separate nations but as a single entity, the liberation of which would require a continent-wide strategy; he began to imagine the possibility of a united Ibero-America without borders, bound together by a common 'mestizo' culture, an idea that would figure prominently in his later revolutionary activities. After completion of his formal studies, Guevara traveled to Guatemala. Guatemalan President Jacobo Arbenz Guzmán headed a populist government that through various programs, particularly land reform, would attempt to bring about a social revolution. Explaining his motive for settling down for a time in Guatemala, Guevara wrote, "In Guatemala I will perfect...

...two ideas together everywhere. Many songs are written with peaceful meanings; some people decide to make peaceful strikes, and some believe in their hearts for a better future. We can also see how peace can come from revolutions: in Greece people are striking against their government because Greece is now bankrupt; in Libya, the rebels killed the dictator Qaddafi; the Syrian revolution; the Cuban revolution, where Fidel Castro with Che Guevara’s help overthrew Batista’s dictatorship; and many other revolutions. All these revolutions happened, some are happening, and some are going to happen for a better and peaceful future. We can also see those two ideas together in the picture above. In this picture, on the left is John Lennon and on the right is Ernesto Che Guevara, both playing guitar. Music in this picture also plays a big role. In the background of the picture seems to be a container on the left. The background of the picture was taken in Chicago on August 11th 1966 when John Lennon was there. This picture is fake, because Che Guevara on August 11th 1966 was travelling to Bolivia. However, the meaning of this picture is huge and that’s why I chose this picture to write about. John Lennon was an English musician, singer, songwriter, and a founding member of ‘’The Beatles’’. He is a symbol of peace, who lived and loved. He believed everyone should be equal: men, women, black, white, gay, and straight. Also, he wrote some of the best songs of all time and he...

...Joey Palmer Oct. 18th, 2015 Essay # 2 Prof. Roliz Throughout history, there has always been situations where an individual or group has rebelled against their government or religion. An individual is justified to rebel against his government when there's an excess of police brutality, that individual can be living in a nation where the government is not an ideal government, or unjust treatment of an ethnicity. There are many ways to rebel against ones government and/or religious institution, in the past rebelling has varied from protesting to a world wide revolution. Revolutionary leaders such as Che Guevara and Martin Luther King Jr. both lead groups which allowed people who rebelled against their government to obtain justice. Two philosophers who spoke on rebelling against their government or religion were Friedrich Nietzsche in “Morality as Anti-Nature” and Henry Thoreau in “Civil Disobedience.” A situation that occurred to justify an individuals rebellion against their government is the act of excess police brutality. A perfect example of excessive police brutality is the Eric Garner case. In this case Eric Garner was put in a choke hold by a New York City Police Department officer named Daniel Pantaleo, he ended up killing him and did not get indicted. This decision came nearly a week after a cop killed an unarmed African American, Michael Brown. This caused many people to walk and protest in Time Square chanting “This Stops Today” and “I Can't Breathe,” which were...

...Between the years of 1925 and 1934, many events took place in Cuban history, but three events had a large impact that helped to shape Cuban history. The election and reelection of Gerado Machado, a dictator who created a communist government, made Cuba what it is today. Machado, who was once seen as a consequential figure to the government, was pressured under the stress of the Great Depression. The people of Cuba revolted against Machado, and this was the beginning of the Cuban Revolution. In 1924, Machado ran for president and defeated Mario G. to become Cuba's 5th president. With the support of the last president Alfredo Zayas, Machado held a great deal of popularity, and easily won five of the six states. Machado's campaign for national regeneration initially received wide support. which helped to win him more states. What they didn't know is the tables would turn and they would end up revolting against him. Machado worked to advanced tourism, industry in mining, and launched the construction of a 700 mile highway. He also taxed American investments. At the time, Machado was seen as the most important achievement in Cuban politics. In 1927 Machado then took full control of the Cuban political parties by becoming the only candidate for reelection. He was reelected in 1928, despite objection from students and professional men, and began to rule even more dictatorially. Widespread disorder erupted, and in 1933, U.S. Ambassador Sumner Welles was sent by President Franklin...

...In my life, I have taken many journeys without which I would not have experienced important truths. My father started us off early, taking us on many journeys to help us understand that true knowledge comes only from experience. We took trips every winter break to Madrid, Mexico, Costa Rica, and to Jamaica and Trinidad, my parents’ homeland for Christmas. Silly things I remember from those trips include the mango chili sauce on the pork in Maui, the names of the women who gave out the towels by the pools in Selva Verde, Costa Rica, eating dinner at 10 p.m. in Spain. These were all tourist experiences that I, at first, found spellbinding. My truths were the truths of the tourist brochures: beautiful hotels, beaches, and cities. I did not see the blindfolds. I did not appreciate how being held hostage by the beauty of the surface—the beaches and cities—blinded me to the absence of Puerto Rican natives on the streets of San Juan; I did not understand how the prevalence and familiarity of English conspired to veil the beauty of the Spanish language beneath volumes of English translations. I learned more about these truths in my sophomore year of high school, when I was among a group of students selected to visit Cuba. My grandmother was born in Cuba, yet I had never thought to research my own heritage. I have remained the naïve American who saw Castro as some distant enemy of my country, accepting this as fact because this seemed to be the accepted wisdom. I soon became intrigued...

...Ernesto Guevara was born on June 14, 1928, in Rosario, Argentina. He suffered from asthma. At an early age he read history and sociology books and was influenced by the writings of the Chilean Communist poet Pablo Neruda. At 19 Guevara entered the medical school of the University of Buenos Aires. In 1952 "Che" Guevara ("Che" is an Argentine equivalent of "pal") broke off his studies in order to set out with a friend on a transcontinental trip which included motorcycling to Chile, riding a raft on the Amazon, and taking a plane to Florida. He returned to Argentina to resume his studies, graduating with a degree of doctor of medicine and surgery in 1953. Late in 1953 Guevara left Argentina, this time for good. He moved to Guatemala, where he had his first experience of a country at war. He supported the Jacobo Arbenz regime, and when it was overthrown in 1954 Guevara sought asylum in the Argentine embassy, remaining there until he could travel to Mexico. It was here that Guevara met the Castro brothers. At the time Fidel Castro was planning an expedition against Cuban dictator Fulgencio Batista, and Guevara agreed to go along as a doctor. On Dec. 2, 1956, the expeditionaries landed in eastern Cuba, becoming the nucleus of a guerrilla force which operated in the Sierra Maestra Mountains. The guerrillas contributed to the crumbling of the Batista regime on Dec. 31, 1958. In January 1959 Guevara was one of the first rebel commanders to enter Havana and take control of the capital...

Jumping around from being bad guys in a town to really "good experts" in other towns. Che writes his whole way to South America, during, and his way back. Him and his friend both change in many ways at then end of the book. While his visit to South America, they realize who is there for them and who isn't. Guevara's coming of age story. In many Native American cultures they used to practice a ritual "walk-about" sending off their young men into the wild to survive and live on their own for a couple of months. The idea being that when they came back they would be changed by that experience and have discovered some truths about themselves, and making them more mature. What started off simply as a spontaneous adventure ended up becoming a tale of relationships that one after another began to shape Guevara's perceptions of Latin American politics. Seeing the Native Americans persecuted and treated like objects no different from cattle, talking with many of the mine workers who sacrificed their health and some their lives for meager wages. Being inspired by the Incan ruins and the former greatness of that...

...Ernesto Guevara de la Serna, known as Che Guevara, was born on June 1928 in Argentina into a middle-class family. He studied medicine and during this time he travelled a lot in Central America. During his trip he had been shocked by the poverty, hunger, and disease observed in those countries. This experience inspired him to become a revolutionary. He later joined a group of Cuban revolutionaries with Fidel Castro in Mexico. Even nowadays, he remains the symbol of rebellion and revolution all over the world. However, recent research has proved that he was a murderer. So can we consider Che Guevara as a hero? In order to answer to this question, we will first explain why Che is a hero and then why he was also a villain. First of all, a hero is a person who is admired for his courage, outstanding achievements, or noble qualities. So now I am going to explain why we can consider Che as a hero. Che Guevara was a revolutionary and as I said before he joined a group of Cuban revolutionaries with Fidel Castro. His goal was to fight against the Batista dictatorship (who was a Cuban dictator close from the Americans) and to establish a Marxist regime in Cuba. He proved himself to be both a good soldier and a leader. He was fearless and courageous. By May 1958, Guevara became the second-in-command of the large group of revolutionaries. Castro’s group had grown in size and strength during few months. Using guerrilla tactics, Castro and his men successfully took over town after town. Guevara...

...John Van Buskirk History 131 Professor Ehrlich October 10th, 2015 Lázaro Cárdenas, Juan Perón, Jorge Gaitán and Fidel Castro are four people that are famous for what they did for their people. The main agenda of each person is what shaped that person’s future. Also every person strived to help the poor people of their country or town. Even though it did not always work in the long run. Each person had their own unique way to do this. Lázaro Cárdenas’ main agenda as president was to fix the Mexican economy. With fixing the economy he wanted to give back to the poor people of Mexico. Cárdenas did this mainly by getting rid of all the haciendas. They way haciendas had workers is by giving the workers loans and making them work to pay them back. With the end of the Haciendas was the end of the imprisonment by loan. Every time he stopped a hacienda he distributed the land to the people who worked them. On paper this idea looked great but in actuality it was not. Cárdenas distributed 18,352,275 hectares among 1,020,594 peasants. He shut down perfect and terrible haciendas regardless of the status. According to the Biography of Power, a witness stated “no one really knew which way to go ... they expected us to know everything overnight”. Each worker on the haciendas only knew one job, their job. This lead to catastrophe and a drop in agricultural productivity. The major problem people had with Cárdenas was that he took away a working system instead of fixing it. But in the end...

...Lydia Garcia Professor Raul Rubio November 20, 2014 Dirty Dancing: Havana Nights Directed by: Guy Ferland 1. Set against the corrupt glamour and escalating danger of revolution-eve Cuba, Dirty Dancing: Havana Nights follows the blossoming love affair of young couple Katey and Javier against the backdrop of the Cuban Revolution in 1958. Katey is an American girl living in Cuba with her parents who meets Javier, a local. Javier takes Katey to a nightclub where he teaches her how to dance dirty Cuban-style. They prepare for the big Latin dance contest, but Castro's revolution is about to change everything. The two grow closer and closer, but when Castro takes over, Katey's parents decide to flee for the U.S., leaving Katey to make the ultimate decision. 2. The story tries to balance youthful flirtation with the serious theme of political revolution. Castro demanded power and tried for a long time to overthrow the Batista’s government. The Cuban Revolution was a turning point in recent history and because of Castro and his status as dictator is highly opposed by many nations because of the violations of human rights practiced under his rule. 3. Dirty Dancing: Havana Nights didn’t really didn’t display many scenes that brought the filled tragedy of the revolution but there were two parts that struck out to me the most. The first scene was when Katey and Javier were walking down the street and they stopped to hear and watch a group of men that were singing beautifully...

...Born on August 13th, 1926 Fidel Alejandro Castro Ruz was a revolutionary in the making. He was able to take over the Cuban government and transform Cuba into the first communist state in the western hemisphere. Castro led Cuba with a strong fist for a total of 49 years before passing power over to his brother Raul. Through is ruling Castro was a man who sparked different opinions from many different people before passing away on November 25th, 2016. With so many opinions floating around about Fidel Castro we have to wonder who was he really? Castro was born in Biran, Cuba where his father was a hard-working sugar cane farmer and landowner and his mother was a housemaid/cook for sugar industry officials. Castro’s family was considered to be a bourgeois middle class family. He lived not too far from the battlefield where Jose Marti died helped fuel his idea of his historical destiny. As a kid, Castro spent a lot of his time alongside his father’s workers which helped strengthen his empathy towards his country’s poor. Growing up in the violent Oriente Province Castro soon learned the true power of firearms. Growing up Castro attended Catholic boarding schools graduating from Belen High School and then making his way to the university of Havana where he would study law. Before this point, he had avoided Marxism but once he entered the university he made friends with dozens of left-wing groups and consistently talked about a Cuban revolution. In the eyes of Castro, the real villain...
