...What is the biggest reason Trump’s America is reversing decisions as big as Net Neutrality? Money. Money makes the world go ‘round, afterall. This is the common denominator in the majority of Net Neutrality controversy. “Make America Great Again†is a sad excuse for the current administration, the divides in the country are only becoming greater and the wounds deeper. The upper class seems to be favored in a majority of proposals and executive orders, while the lower class is left behind. At this rate, there may be a day where the middle class is negligible. Despite the paranoia, Net Neutrality is not going to charge individuals $20/month for social media and $1 every Google search, what it will do is separate the internet into two categories: the privileged, that can afford strong and fast internet connections in these so-called “fast lanes,†and the others that do not have room in their budget to gain access to whatever content they choose as quickly. One would think that a president that relies on social media to gain popularity and submit “real white house statementsâ€...

...SPECIAL ECONOMIC ZONE (SEZs) with example of MUNDRA PORT & SPECIAL ECONOMIC ZONE, GUJARAT (MPSEZ) Submitted by:- Executive Summary Special Economic Zones (SEZs) were established in many countries as testing grounds for implementation of liberal market economy principles. SEZs are viewed as instruments enhancing the acceptability and credibility of transformation policies, attracting domestic and foreign investment and also for the opening upon the economy. SEZs in India seek to promote the value addition component in exports, generate employment as well as mobilize foreign exchange. Globally, many countries initiated Free Trade Agreements (FTAs)which eventually led to a spurt in investments in infrastructure developments for Free Trade Zones (FTZs) and SEZs. A close examination of the evolution of SEZs in countries with similar economies as India eg; China, Iran, UAE and Jordan, will help us to understand their success stories and thereby implement those factors, in order to curb the SEZ bottlenecks faced by India today. The Shenzhen SEZ in China is a perfect example of a SEZ success story. In India, the government has been proactive in the development of SEZs. They have formulated policies, reviewed them occasionally and also ensured that ample facilities are provided to the SEZ developers as well as the companies setting up units in SEZs. These favorable conditions resulted in the biggest ever corporate rush for the development...

...climate change, just recently, there were reports about Malacañang being open to studying proposals to change the school calendar. However, the Congress still has the final say on the matter. This means that the academic calendar would run from August to May or September to June instead of June to March. This was intended to avoid the suspension of class because of typhoons just like last year, about 25 typhoons, including the Nov. 9 super typhoon Yolanda hit the Philippines and also to copy the academic calendar of most countries in order to attract foreign students to study in the Philippines and assist the enrollment abroad of Filipino students and teachers. This will also allow Philippines a greater synchronization with the ASEAN, Northeast Asian and American and European universities since a lot of training programs and activities of summer institutes happen in June and July in which, in the proposed academic calendar, these months don’t have classes. At present, five universities named University of the Philippines, Ateneo de Manila University, De La Salle University, University of Sto. Tomas and Adamson University have already expressed their plans to adapt the proposed academic calendar. Looking at these, it can be seen how the education system in the country is intended to be patterned after the education system of other countries. But some of people disagree with this proposal because of some reasons like the...

...“System Analysis and Design by Dennis, Wixom and Roth” (Essay) |Student Ñame: ADEWUMI JOHNSON | |ID #: U010276 | System analysis and design (SAD) is an exciting, active field in which analysts continually learn new techniques and approaches to develop systems more effectively and efficiently. System analysis and design consists of four major phases and they are the planning phase, the analysis phase, the design phase and the implementation phase. The planning phase is the fundamental two-step process of understanding why an information system should be developed and creating a plan for how the project team will develop it. The deliverables from this phase is the project plan. The analysis phase answers the questions of who will use the system, what the system will do, and where and when it will be used. A system proposal is the deliverable of this phase. The design phase decides how the system will operate. The final stage is the implementation phase, during which the system is actually built or purchased in the case of packaged software design. The system development life cycle (SDLC) is the process of understanding how information system can support business needs, designing the system, building it, and delivering it to users. The system...

...Digital Media and Technology Professor November 28, 2013 Education in Digitalization Our group decided to do our paper on the topic of Education in the Digital age which was our first project of the year. Education has changed so much over the years and it has done that very fast. From having textbooks and covering them to now classes having I pad’s in them and almost diminishing textbooks from school. As technology advances everyday, we can only imagine how our education will be in schools in even just 5 years. Research, studying, student testing, disabled education, hybrid classes and the changing roles of teachers in today's digital age are some of the main topics I will be talking about. Textbooks are not only very important for a students education but also puts a hole in their wallet. On average a student spends roughly $1,200 a year on textbooks whether you are renting them or buying them. That is a staggering number for a book that sometimes doesn't even help you too much in class. A single sheet of paper to make costs just 5 cents, but that adds up with how many pages are in a book overall. Some of the jobs that textbooks make were more than I expected. You can have jobs such as authors, illustrators, publishers, editors, lumbar people, paper mill workers and shippers. The authors are the people who write the text in the book, the illustrators can print in the pictures into the book, the editors look for any misspelling or misprint that the author...

... This doctrine is going to depict if medications and drugs, whether legal or illicit, have caused a kind of PTSD event within this special group of people. The people that make up the military force and veterans are approximately one percent of the population of the United States. This is a much-diversified group of people. They comprise of the Air Force, Army, Navy, Marines and Coast Guard. These are further broken down to reserves and national guards. They also come from different ethnic backgrounds, race, male and female alike. Many reports have been made in the media about the soldiers that have returned about the various treatments they have experienced and care that has been provided them. The purpose of this proposal is to find out if medications have generated a false PTSD-like state in the current population of soldiers that have returned from war. This research will also determine the effects medications have on sleep. The causes of night terrors and nightmares on the deployed personnel will be clarified. During the time of war, soldiers were given medication and...
