The new building will allow the organization to expand the capacity of community based comprehensive service delivery.

...The Gallipoli Campaign of 1915, a battle during World War I, went very wrong. The Gallipoli campaign was a battle fought in the former Ottoman Empire, today known as Turkey with countries including Great Britain, Ottoman Empire, India, France, Ireland, New Zealand and Australia participating in it. Great Britain’s plan, a suggestion by the First Lord of the Admiralty, Winston Churchill, was to threaten Germany’s ally in World War I, the Ottoman Empire and get them out of the war. The hope was that while the Germans were already contending with Russian and French forces on two fronts, creating a third front would weaken the Germans. The execution however, did not go as planned as there were location errors, planning and tactical errors, mistakes...

...read email, snoop on private social network conversations, observe phone call records, and track the physical locations of citizens not charged nor suspected of any crime, without so much as a warrant. Worse, the demographic most affected this level of snooping on our digital lives, the 18-24 year-old college crowd, is the least knowledgeable and most politically apathetic about the issue. This is a recipe for disaster, and this proposal seeks funding for an awareness campaign that will address it. This campaign will raise awareness about mass surveillance and the Snowden disclosures. We will use posters and flyers to dry attention to the issue. We will use the University of New Mexico as a testing ground, using before and after surveys to gauge effectiveness. If the campaign proves successful, we will recruit volunteers and raise a second round of funding to bring the campaign to college campuses across the nation. Team Underachievers would be at the forefront of both campaigns, personally executing the trial campaign and overseeing the potential national one. After the acceptance of this proposal, we will immediately begin designing our materials and sourcing the cheapest places to mass produce them. We look forward to discussing our proposal in depth and answering any questions or concerns...

...of Congress who has been charged with ethics violations. State ethics investigators have charged Lt. Gov. Ken Ard with 69 counts of spending campaign money for his personal use and 23 counts of failing to disclose campaign expenses. Ard, who took office in November, has been under scrutiny since taking office for thousands of dollars of purchases, including meals and hotel rooms – particularly those made post-election – listed on his campaign finance reports. In a news release, the State Ethics Commission said it found probable cause for the charges and likely will send out a hearing notice.

...Festivity of Political Campaigns Still Persist By Francel Salas Election from the word itself “elect” which means to choose or to vote a righteous person that will lead his country and his people with his intention of further boost the development of the country side. As a democratic country Philippines used to have its election. And now election 2013 is fast approaching, politicians are becoming very ostensible to the public due to their political campaigns that will convince our voters to vote for them. Different tactics and skims are evident to these aspiring politicians. Nowadays, vast number of banners and tarpaulins sponsored by prominent politicians are encircling the different municipalities and cities of the country that are obviously bespeaks of the upcoming election. Furthermore, even holiday seasons are also utilize for political purposes wherein last Christmas, some of the well-known politician candidates used to distribute “hamon”- definitely for their political intention. Also the “Feast of the Black Nazarene” last January 9, became an instrument for campaign, politicians gave free t-shirts to those devotee with the face of Black Nazarene in the front and the name of politician at the back.

...Project What do you think makes a Kickstarter (or crowdfunding, more generally) campaign succeed or fail? What are the most important aspects? I think people can use things like Kickstarter or other methods of crowdsourcing exponentially well in today’s world. A lot of people are out there in today’s world, and they look to help. They look to help out and better society. If there is a specific thing they come across or feel connected to, they may not have a problem generously donating. Not only will random people contribute to achieve a stranger’s goal, but also greater insight may be gained to improve processes. One of the best things Kickstarter has to offer is the entirety of a project for each idea. The project offers a “webpage that describes the project, the amount of money sought, how it will be spent, how long the fundarasig compaign will last, and what rewards are being offered.” The best way to gain as much attention as possible is carrying on a heavily focused marketing plan. Kickstarter’s model is “all or nothing” meaning that if the total funding request (e.g., $17,000) is achieved in the time (e.g., four weeks), they get the total amount pledged. But if the funding request is not achieved in the timeframe, even if they are short by one dollar, the company gets nothing. How important is this model for campaign success? What do you think of the incentives that the team created for e2’s campaign? Would these have much of an influence on whether or not a person pledges...

...X, the rival, is a cheesy piece of goods, won’t hold up, has to be cranked by hand… This is the model for not just our commercial product sales but, rather more vigorously, for our political campaigns as well… we have gradually just gotten used to them. Its not so much that I am wonderful the candidate explains, as the opponent is a lying, cowardly, two faced cheat and con artist. (Pulitzer Prize winner and Washington Post columnist Meg Greenfield, 1995) Whether through print or television media, advertising affects behaviour. A key tool of political parties, it has been used to win support during critical governmental assessment or change, and engage the susceptible electorate to participate in the political process. Yet, where features such as wit, charisma or aptitude have been emphasized and admired, the intemperance of political campaigning has also drawn out a negative side, one that seeks to cast a damaging shadow on any opposition in order to attain the support of the majority. The types of political message given out by both politicians and the media vary in how they are constructed and what they intend to achieve, and despite widespread criticism surrounding its ethical fragilities, attack politics in particular have become a fundamental component of any political campaign and evidence has shown the electorate to show a greater interest in a more pessimistic tone of politics. This essay intends to address whether negative publicity in the form of attack advertising...

...In-N-Out, I think that the firm’s approach to employees is fair. Having employees wait a year to be offered manager training is good tactic. It gives the employees and the firm enough time to make sure that it is the right career path for employees. I am sure that In-N-Out is a good family owned company and good place to work. The fact that the company cares enough about their employee and that they go above and beyond to keep good workers is a good enough reason for me to have a positive attitude about this company. 3. Just because In-N-Out had success with limited menu doesn’t mean that everyone can create a successful company on the same grounds. In the business plan, I would like to see what local farms are willing to do business with new company. In addition, I would like to know what the business plan is for winter when there is no available fresh produce...

...During the nomination campaign, the candidates target party leaders and interest groups. This is the time for the candidates to learn that a single phrase could end the campaign or guarantee a defeat. The media take much less notice of mistakes at this time than in the general election campaign. A danger not always heeded by candidates during the nomination campaign is that a candidate can move too far left or right and appear too extreme to the electorate. If a candidate tries too hard to appeal to the interests of party elites, they jeopardize their chances of winning the election. An example of this is the election of 1964 when Barry Goldwater went too far right and lost the presidential election. 2. After earning the party’s nomination, candidates embark on the general election campaign, or the phase of a political campaign aimed at winning election to office. Unlike the nomination campaign, where candidates must run against each other, during the general election campaign, candidates in partisan elections run against nominees from other political parties. All eligible voters, regardless of political party, have the opportunity to vote. For this reason, candidates are more likely to move their positions on political issues toward the ideological center. The length of the general election campaign varies from state to state. 3. Paid staff, political consultants, and volunteers work behind the scenes to support the candidate. Collectively, they plan strategy, conduct polls...
