Even though the children play in the street it cause a safety risk to drivers that don’t speed or drive wreck less do to the children running in and out of the streets without looking for cars. The children are our future and they need to be protected. When a person is looking to buy a future home they want to see a nice neighborhood that looks respectable and not as if it’s a bad neighborhood. The appearance of a home in my belief can say a lot about the people who live there. Someone who takes care of their home for example pressure washing, not trash in yard, paint nicely applied. Also there are some resident that don’t have the money but the residents should do as much as they can. To give an example of this a resident in my neighborhood has fixed the garage door which is tilted half way closed and it’s not very appealing. The appearance of a residents lawn as well as home its self make a community. A yard or lawn care should at the minimum have the grass mowed. The plants should be not over grown or deceased. Living in Florida the grass isn’t always...

...The poor people usually depends of this places for basic things like food or sleep,without that help some of them don`t survive winter. Most of these institutions exist thanks to donations made it by average people and not government assistance. Every day there is more people living on the streets and the help is simply not enough, even when these kind of institutions exist. The people which suffer of poverty even when we see them like a kind of dog in the street, they are human and they want a decent life like normal people. Is normal to say that those poor people are living on the streets by their own choice, but like I said before, that is ignorance. That people suffer a lot of things, even things that we never going to feel, for example the hungry . The sad of these situations is that most of these people is...

Going forward, where there were shows like Yu-Gi-Oh, Dragon Ball Z, and Sonic X, there will be “One Magnificent Morning”, a block of live-action educational programming * NBC ditched Saturday morning cartoons in 1992, CBS followed suit not long after. ABC dropped its run in 2004. The CW was the last man standing, so to speak. * Saturday morning cartoons were killed by a combination of cable, streaming, and the FCC. * The FCC mandated that broadcast networks provide a minimum of 3hrs of “educational” programming every week. * With the addition of many new cable and satellite channels that don’t have to abide by FCC regulations, kids can get their cartoon fix any hour of the day. * Top it all off with streaming services like Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime, etc. and you’ve got a truly spoiled generation.

...When Warner bros. entertainment established an umbrella division, the Warner Home Entertainment Group, last October for all business units involved in the digital delivery of entertainment to consumers, it was fast-forwarding the most important technical transaction the studio has made in decades. "The great promise of digital technology ... is that consumers will be able to choose how they want to consume content," Kevin Tsujihara, president of the new division, said in making the announcement. "We're entering an exciting time in the entertainment business when the consumer, empowered by new technologies, has an active role in the process instead of being a passive participant." Warner Bros. Entertainment, a subsidiary of the Time Warner conglomerate, is in the process of transforming itself into a digital end-to-end business. This change has been largely driven by a farming-out of how consumers want to consume content, says Charles L "Chuck" Dages, senior vice president of emerging technology at Warner. "As we watched the consumer go digital, the production systems within Warner have followed suit," he says. "At the front end we're seeing the increasing use of digital cameras by filmmakers, and at other end we're seeing digital distribution through broadband (McCartney,L. Oct2006). As the world goes digital, another business goal is to create a paperless supply chain, according to Brian Reed, VP of global marketing at Forms cape, a company that provides document management...

...Task 1 LO 1.1 All high-level programming languages support the concept of data types. A data type defines a set of values that a variable can store along with a set of operations. Data types are used to store various types of data which is managed by program. Data type attaches with variable to determine the number of bytes to be allocate to variable and valid operations which can be performed on that variable. Although C has several built-in data types, it is not a strongly typed language, as are Pascal and Ada. C supports various data types and here some common data type as character, integer and floating-point types. C defines five foundational data types as defined below: ▪ character ▪ integer ▪ floating-point ▪ double floating-point ▪ valueless These are declared as by char, int, float, double, and void, respectively. These types form the basis for some other types also. The extent and choice of these and data types may contrast amongst processor natures and compilers. However, in all belongings an object of type char is 1 byte. C stores character type inside as an integer. Each character has 8 bits so, we can have 256 different characters values (0-255). Character set is used to map between an integer value and a character. The size of an int is ordinarily the same as the word length of the implementation setting of the program. C has 3 classes of integer storage namely short int, int and long int. All of these data types...

...Write the following queries in SQL: Display a list of all instructors, showing their ID, name, and the number of sections that they have taught. Make sure to show the number of sections as 0 for instructors who have not taught any section. Your query should use an outer join, and should not use scalar subqueries. By using the university schema provided by db-book.com the following queries were done on the university database. The first query uses an outer join which works similar to the join operation but it keeps the rows that don’t match between the two tables that would be lost in a join operation. There are three forms of outer join: a) Left outer join displays the results from the left table even if the condition does not find any matching record in the right table. b) Right outer join will displays the results from the right table regardless if there is matching data in the left table. c) Full outer join will retain all rows from both tables, regardless if the data matches or not. The group by clause when used in a select statement collects data from multiple records and groups the results into one or more columns. The below is the query using left outer join operation: select ID, name, count(sec_id) as Number_of_sections from instructor natural left outer join teaches group by ID, name; The next query was written by using a scalar subquery without using an outer join operation. A scalar subquery is where the output of a subquery returns only...

...the rows that are in the first query but not the second by removing the rows that are only found in the second query. There are three primary SQL commands involved when implementing a Union, Intersection and difference relational operators. As you may know, SQL data manipulation commands are set-oriented which are involved in operating over entire sets of rows and columns in tables at once. The UNION, INTERSECT, and MINUS statements make sure these operations occur. Union, Intersect and Minus only work properly if relations are Union-Compatible, which is based on the names of the relation attributes that must be the same and their data types must be alike. Being compatible does not mean the data types have to be exactly the same. For example, both data types can be used to store numeric values such as NUMBER and SMALLINT as well as character (string) values such as VARCHAR and CHAR. An SQL IN statement can be used with where clause to list a set of matching records of a table. We can use SQL IN query with a NOT combination to filter out some records. We can link or collect data from two different tables using...

...Cursors A cursor is a variable that runs through the tuples of some relation. This relation can be a stored table, or it can be the answer to some query. By fetching into the cursor each tuple of the relation, we can write a program to read and process the value of each such tuple. If the relation is stored, we can also update or delete the tuple at the current cursor position. The example below illustrates a cursor loop. It uses our example relation T1(e,f) whose tuples are pairs of integers. The program will delete every tuple whose first component is less than the second, and insert the reverse tuple into T1. 1) DECLARE /* Output variables to hold the result of the query: */ 2) a T1.e%TYPE; 3) b T1.f%TYPE; /* Cursor declaration: */ 4) CURSOR T1Cursor IS 5) SELECT e, f 6) FROM T1 7) WHERE e < f 8) FOR UPDATE; 9) BEGIN 10) OPEN T1Cursor; 11) LOOP /* Retrieve each row of the result of the above query into PL/SQL variables: */ 12) FETCH T1Cursor INTO a, b; /* If there are no more rows to fetch, exit the loop: */ 13) EXIT WHEN T1Cursor%NOTFOUND; /* Delete the current tuple: */ 14) DELETE FROM T1 WHERE CURRENT OF T1Cursor; /* Insert the reverse tuple: */ 15) INSERT INTO T1 VALUES(b, a); 16) END LOOP; /* Free cursor used by the...
