...Subhas Chandra Bose (About this sound listen ; 23 January 1897 – 18 August 1945 (aged 48)[1]) was an Indian nationalist whose defiant patriotism made him a hero in India, but whose attempt during World War II to rid India of British rule with the help of Nazi Germany and Japan left a troubled legacy.[4][5][6] The honorific Netaji (Hindustani language: "Respected Leader"), first applied to Bose in Germany, by the Indian soldiers of the Indische Legion and by the German and Indian officials in the Special Bureau for India in Berlin, in early 1942, is now used widely throughout India.[7] Earlier, Bose had been a leader of the younger, radical, wing of the Indian National Congress in the late 1920s and 1930s, rising to become Congress President in 1938 and 1939.[8] However, he was ousted from Congress leadership positions in 1939 following differences with Mohandas K. Gandhi and the Congress high command.[9] He was subsequently placed under house arrest by the British before escaping from India in 1940.[10] Bose arrived in Germany in April 1941, where the leadership offered unexpected, if sometimes ambivalent, sympathy for the cause of India's independence, contrasting starkly with its attitudes towards other colonised peoples and ethnic communities.[11][12] In November 1941, with German funds, a Free India Centre was set up in Berlin, and soon a Free India Radio, on which Bose broadcast nightly. A 3,000-strong Free India Legion, comprising Indians captured by Erwin Rommels Afrika...

...Unit 1 – AO1 – Investigate the roles and responsibilities of two contrasting public services and describe their purpose AO2 – Investigate the internal structure and functional areas for two chosen public services The two public services I am going to speak about are the prison service and the army. The reason is because both have a very important part of the keeping Britain safe. The prisons vision is to provide the very best prison service as possible and to help secure the following points. * Hold prisoners securely and safely * Reduce the risk of any prisoners from re-offending * Providing safe and well-ordered establishments in which we treat prisoners humanely, decently and lawfully To make sure the prison service actually completes their objectives they work in * close partnership with our commissioners and others in the Criminal Justice System to achieve common objectives * Obtain best value from the resources available using research to ensure effective correctional practice * Promote diversity, equality of opportunity and combat unlawful discrimination, and * Ensure our staff have the right leadership, organisation, support and preparation to carry out their work effectively. This is what the prison set out to achieve and how they plan to do it but there is a lot more involved in running a successful prison because a prison is a business. The prison has it goals but the prison needs top security to complete the goals. No...

...N E T A J I’ S LIFE and WRITINGS PART ONE AN INDIAN PILGRIM OR AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF SUBHAS CHANDRA BOSE WWW.HINDUSTANBOOKS. COM WWW.HINDUSTANBOOKS.COM PREFACE The NetaJi Publishing Society has great pleasure in presenting to the public the unfinished utobiography of`Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose. Netaji wanted to give his autobiography, when completed, the title "An Indian Pilgrim". That is how his autobiography derives the name. "An Indian Pilgrim" takes the reader from Netaji’s parentage, birth and early childhood to his Cambridge days—and what days !—when a youngman of 24 had to make up his mind either to take a path, strewn with roses, which promised nothing but ease, luxury and official honour, or a path, strewn with thorns, inviting one to selfless suffering and sacrifice and promising nothing more than blood, sweat and tears. The result of the struggle is known to the world. But only handful have had the privilege to know the different phases of that struggle. Perhaps it was not in 1921 but a decade earlier that the battle within had been won and lost. Perhaps even earlier! That is a poser which we leave to the readers. But one thing is certain that the Rashtrapati and the Rebel President, the Desh Gaurab and the Netaji, the creator of the First Government of the Free India and the beloved leader of the Hindus, Muslims, Sikhs, Christians and Parsees, had been moulded between 1897 and 1921. This is the period covered by "An Indian Pilgrim"...

...Respected teachers and my dear friends, wish you a happy independence day. I am extremely honoured to stand before you on this special day, 15th August, on which we celebrate India's Independence day. On 15th August 1947, India got freedom from the British rule after 200 years. This national festival is celebrated with great enthusiasm all over the country. This day is to remember our great leaders, freedom fighters for their endless resistance against the foreign powers to give us the freedom that we enjoy today. Dear friends, with every passing year we learn more & more about India, its charismatic leaders like Mahatma Gandhi, Rabindranath Tagore, B R Ambedkar and Subhash Chandra Bose. It's our duty to pay homage to all those who have laid down their lives to make the country free from foreign dominance. But today some anti-social elements want to disturb our nation. They want to create problems for people of our country. Here comes our responsibility to fight back. Well my dear friends, what can we as a student do at this juncture? Should we go and catch the terrorists? Should we fight against the corrupted politicians? Or should we take over the country into our hands by waging another war for freedom? No, we are not expected to do all these things. We must keep observing things around us. We will have our own day. Before that, let us do our duty of preparing ourselves to be well-educated citizens of tomorrow. Let us do our duty sincerely and study hard to achieve...

...1 Jagadish Chandra Bose: The Real Inventor of Marconi’s Wireless Receiver Varun Aggarwal, Div. Of Electronics and Comm. Engg., NSIT, Delhi, India 1. Introduction The aim of the present article is to acquaint the younger generation that the real inventor of wireless was not Guglielmo Marconi (Italy), but Jagadish Chandra Bose (India). The classic paper of Dr. P. K. Bondopadhyay [1] published by the IEEE has now established this fact. The article is organised as follows. In the second section, the motivation of this article is discussed. In Section 3, the technical details of the experiment conducted by Marconi in the year 1901, where he claimed to receive trans-atlantic waves on a radio for the first time are given. Next, Section 4 discusses the controversy surrounding the experiment and provides substantial evidence that the receiving device was invented by J. C. Bose. Thereafter, in Section 5, the technical aspects of the receiving device and its working is discussed. Finally, Section 6 concludes the given report. 2. Motivation This article takes you into the past into the history of radio invention. In this section, I will like to discuss the motivation for choosing this topic. 1. The choice of this topic is apparently linked with the irritation of a student of electronics and communication engineering (studying in India) that the fact that Marconi’s wireless was actually invented by Sir J C Bose is not well-known among engineering students, academicians...

...CHARLES MARTIN IN UGANDA Purpose How operations differ from country to country due to different laws and regulations internationally. Discussion Internationally other countries have different laws. In this article they discuss how using different ways to approach a company internationally works, by comparing Charles Marin and James Green. Martin had a taste of the Ugandan culture because he went to African after he graduated college for the Peace Corps where as James Green did not have a taste of the African culture and had more of a US based culture and was not open to both as much as Martin was. Question 1: Describe Ugandan cultural attributes that might affect the operations of a foreign company doing business there. Comment: For the most part business in Uganda would be very different. They have a much different working style then here in the United States. Uganda has a few cultural attributes that might affect operations of a foreign company operating in Uganda. Starting off language gets in the way because Uganda is a country that has various types of religions and languages. As indicated in the article on page two “English is the official language, but many people speak only an indigenous language—mainly Bantu or Nilotic languages.” This may result in miscommunication because the company may not be able to interconnect with the citizens of the area. Also religion results in numerous types of controversies around the world and Uganda has many different religions...

Canadians take Passchendaele successfully. On November 6th, 1917 our Canadian soldiers captured the Passchendaele ridge. They had to face many obstacles but they made it. Reporter Reporter Canadian Wounded at the Battle of Passchendaele More than 15,000 Canadians died or were wounded during the Battle of Passchendaele. Many of them drowned in the mud and shell holes. Canadian Wounded at the Battle of Passchendaele More than 15,000 Canadians died or were wounded during the Battle of Passchendaele. Many of them drowned in the mud and shell holes. The mud, flat terrain, and relative lack of preparation time and artillery support would make Passchendaele a far different battlefield than the one the Canadians encountered at Vimy Ridge. Currie took the time to carefully prepare as much as possible and on October 26, the Canadian offensive began. Advancing through the mud and enemy fire was slow and there were heavy losses. Despite the challenges, the Canadians reached the outskirts of Passchendaele by the end of a second attack on October 30 during a rainstorm. On November 6, the Canadians and British launched the assault to capture the village of Passchendaele itself. In excessive fighting, the attack went according to plan. After fierce enemy counterattacks, the last part of the battle...

...When the other wes moore friends talk him into going to job corp, I felt like he wanted to turn his life around when he agreed to go. He wanted to to do something productive with his life and wanted to better himself. Sad part about it it, he knew if he didn’t go he would end up dead or in jail. While he was at job corps he felt like he had a second chance at life and wanted to do better for his family. But later after returning home from job corps he realized that his problems wouldn’t go away and that they were real. Realizing that his problems wouldn’t go away, he soon turned back into his old self. He started back selling drugs and ended up being charged for killing a police officer. I felt like this happened because his past life will always haunt him, so he had to face it sooner or later. But I didn’t realize it was going to be so soon. They are in different places in this book to show the different situations they were in even though they had the same names. Wes Moore didn’t know he was going to end up in jail, and didn’t know how he was supposed to raise his child because he didn’t have a father figure to teach him that. “ Wes’s nonexistent relationship with his father probably contributed to his seeming indifference about becoming a father himself”. All he could rely on was his mother. The other wes moore turned his life around completely. Military school changed him for the best. He changed the way he act and the way he talks. I can relate to wes moore when he went...

...John Pierce published an article in Laurier University’s Canadian Military History journal in 1992, which suggested that in the summer of 1936, “the historical reality of the battle was re-worked and reinterpreted… to symbolize Canada’s coming of age.” The construction of the memorial at Vimy began in 1925, and was intended to represent the entire contribution of the Canadian Corps to the First World War. Further, the monument served as a commemoration to the 19,000 Canadian soldiers who had been buried in unmarked graves. The inscription of the names of these men, the vast majority of which had not given their lives at Vimy, had the effect of “transforming Vimy into hallowed ground, an empty tomb, a place of pilgrimage” according to...

...The Rise of Canadian Military Professionalism in World War 1 Paul Dickson in his article “The End of the Beginning: The Canadian Corps in 1917,” attempts to answer the question of what factors were responsible for the turnaround in professionalism and capability of the Canadian Expeditionary Force (CEF) during the later half of the First World War. The author’s thesis is that the Canadian Corps that fought at Vimy Ridge was not the superlative force that the Canadian public thought they were. In fact, during the early period of World War I, before 1916, the Canadian Corps was still in its infancy and definitely undergoing teething troubles, even though the beginning of a firm and solid base was slowly developing. “The Canadian Corps that took Vimy Ridge was not the “elite” formation it would become in 1918, but the foundation was firmly in place.” Prior to 1916, the author explains that the key ingredients to success that are described as “good habits” and a “good organizational culture” , were not fully in place and prevented the CEF from reaching its maximum operational effectiveness. Dickson is intrigued with the CEF in that there was an element that made them unique to both their Allied and Axis counterparts allowing them to reach this “elite” plateau, as the “Canadian Expeditionary Force (CEF) shared many of the problems encountered by other armies on the Western Front…” . He attempts to explore this question and seek answers. Was it better equipment...
