...Lets Get Practical In today’s graduating high school class everyone thinks the same. They are required to do just about everything the same. Students are not taught to think outside the box. By the time they leave high school they are not an individual yet. Yes, they can write a paper but it isn't their own thought. Yes they can spend money, but do they know how to manage and save it. Because of the lack of outside world knowledge, high school should shift to a more practical and individualized curriculum. It would benefit the high school students to learn more practical things because, they need to learn the everyday tasks that are required as adults. When students graduate, most if not all do not know how to balance a checkbook, manage a bank account, or even know how to budget. They need to be taught how to resit the never ending urge to buy something they know they do not need. A money management class will teach them how to be responsible with their money and teach them the benefits of saving. If I had of learned these tools while in high school, I would most likely have a car and my license by mid summer. But because I lack in these traits I will have to save and wait until next march to drive. If they are taught these things they will not have to face the burden of feeling and being unprepared for life. By teaching them time management there would be fewer mistakes made. They would have the proper time to be able to process their thoughts, and write them down for...

...Part 4: Organisational Processes BOSS Magazine article Let’s Get Together Source: B. Head, “Let’s Get Together,” Boss Magazine, September 14, 2001, p. 52. The strategic alliance is redefining competition in the new networked economy. But to make the most of collaboration, you need to pay attention to age-old issues like trust. It took Siebel Systems six years to rise from start-up to star. By 2000 the software company was raking in $US1.8 billion annual revenues and ranked third on Fortune's 100 fastest growing companies list. This status came from forging alliances where it made sense and where it could. Siebel, founded in 1993, was early to market with e-business software, but being first wasn't enough. Siebel needed to fight off rival start-ups by developing critical mass fast; and that demanded the support of seasoned partners to help break into international corporate accounts. Today the company refers to its web of alliances with hardware companies, software companies, consulting firms and service providers as a "partner ecosystem". Siebel's is not an entirely benign ecosystem, though; it is inhabited by some of the most dangerous corporate predators in the IT sector - companies such as Microsoft, Cisco, Compaq and IBM. These are companies that compete and yet collaborate, and even while they collaborate they compete. Siebel's ecosystem is the tense model with which millennial management will have to come to grips. Dean Blomson, vice-president of consulting...

...Why Not Let Teens Get Elective Cosmetic Surgery ? Many things would change if teens were able to have elective cosmetic surgery. Sometimes people disagree because they pay to much attention to the negative things that can happen or the outcome of it. I think that teens should be able to get elective cosmetic surgery. In the documentary, “Second Chances” by NBC Dateline there is a girl named Renata and she feels really bad about her appearance. She won't go to school or just in general not go outside at all. She doesn't go to school because the kids make fun of her and she feels like anywhere she goes they will make fun of her. So by her getting elective cosmetic surgery on her nose and chin she felt better about herself . She started going...

But due to recent events that lead to a sort of downfall in using these pilot less drones, is it actually worth the billions we spend on it to be used in the military or is it even worth having though due to some malfunctions of the drone killed innocent civilians not only from other lands, but our own American civilians as well. Does America really needs these drones that can help with the war on terror and costing us so much money let alone deaths, or do we need something different or not even the drones at all. Back in 2008 while I was serving in Afghanistan and right now I am gearing up for another tour right after the final week of school has ended, I remember hearing about the drones and what the purpose was for. At the time I could never really see one up close and let alone be in the same room as the person controlling it due to many security reasons. But I remember they were in training for the next big thing that was going to change the way that we see everything in the war, to me that sounded like a great idea and a great plan that we could use such technology that not even the enemy was able to catch or let alone see or even...

...nail buffer, nail file, cuticle cream, cuticle clippers, toe spacers, , skin so soft and a nail dryer. I also like to have handy, an aerosol can of nail drying spray. (This is optional). Let us begin turning those brittle nails into elaborate nails. We will start by taking off the old polish. When choosing a nail polish remover, I prefer to use a non-acetone for natural nails; for instance, this will keep your natural nails less dry and much smoother. Let’s start with the finger nails. Take your dry towel, lay it over your lap or table to put your hands on; because, you don’t want to get the polish remover on your clothes or furniture, for this might ruin them. Now let’s take a cotton ball and soak it with the polish remover. Apply the cotton ball to your nail and rub firmly, make sure you remove all old polish. Repeat the process to the toenails to remove any unwanted old polish. You will then take the wet cloth and wipe both finger and toe nails off. Our next step is to fill the foot soaking tub with warm tap water. Then, add ¼ cup of skin so soft to the water, this will make your feet silky and soft. Now, lower your feet into the tub and soak them for approximately 20 to 25 minutes. We will then remove our feet from the foot soaking tub, and dry them off with the dry towel. Now let us take the cuticle cream, and...

...MATH 4450 - HOME WORK 5 (1) Let V be a R−vector space and < , > be an inner product. Prove that if {v1 , · · · , vn } is a set of mutually orthogonal non-zero vectors, then this set is also linearly independent. Proof: We are given (vi , vj ) = 0 if i = j and (vi , vi ) = 1. To prove that the set if linearly independent, we set a1 v1 + · · · + an vn = 0. Now taking inner product with vj on both sides, we get n ai (vi , vj ) = (0, vj ). Since inner products are linear in the first i=1 variable, we get n ai (v1 , vj ) = 0, and this gives aj = 0. Thus we are done. i=1 (2) Let V be a vector space and < , > be an inner product. Then show that (a) < 0, v >= 0 for any v ∈ V . Proof: < 0, v >=< 0 + 0, v >=< 0, v > + < 0, v >. Subtracting < 0, v > from both sides, we get < 0, v >= 0. (b) Show that for a fixed u ∈ V , < u, v >= 0 for any v ∈ V , then u = 0. Proof: Take v = u. Then we have < u, u >= 0, i.e., ||u||2 = 0. This implies that u = 0. (3) Let V be a vector space and < , > be an inner product and B = {v1 , · · · , vn } be an orthonormal basis for V . If c1 , · · · , cn ∈ K are scalars, then show that there is a unique v ∈ V such that < v, vi >= ci . Proof: Let v = n ci vi . Now taking inner product with vj on both sides, we get i=1 (v, vj ) = n ci (vi , vj ). Orthogonality implies that (vi , vj ) = 0 for i = j. Hence we get i=1 (v, vj ) = cj (vj , vj ). Since vj is non-zero (why?), we get ci = (v, vj )/||vj ||2 = (v, vj ). This proves existence. Uniqueness follows from the properties...

...married; therefore he is not willing to let go of her. His attitude is very overprotective and grumpy, but deep down inside it hurts him to see her growing up. He wants her to stay carefree, teasing and giggling as a child, not to grow up and become an adult. The fact we do not hear anything about his wife, tells us somehow she is gone. All he has left is his daughter and his granddaughter. His daughter got married to a man when she was seventeen years old. The other three granddaughters also got married and moved away. This only makes him madder – because he does not want to loose the last granddaughter, Alice. He knows after Alice gets married, nothing will ever be the same again. He thinks she is far too young to get married and just wants her to stay. Miserably and angrily he shouts at her, asking her old-fashioned phrases stating his objection to her future marriage, and eventually threatening to tell her mother when she disobeys him. Possessiveness and selfishness have blinded him. The grandfather’s anger towards Alice is because she is leaving him for another man, and the anger towards his daughter Lucy is because she gives Alice permission to leave. The old man who is also the main character, lives in a house by the railroad with his daughter and granddaughter. He keeps birds in his house. The birds are very symbolic in the story. In the beginning of the story, he stands outside his house, holding his favourite bird and is ready to let it go, until he sees Alice. That’s...
