...Wireless Technologies Proposal Las cadenas de redes tecnológicas inalámbricas están cambiando la forma en que las personas se conectan y se comunican entre sí. Este tipo de tecnología se ha convertido muy popular desde sus primeros días de introducción y uso. Si se necesita hacer una llamada desde un móvil, verificar correo electrónico, recibir un mensaje, hacer data portable sin tener problemas de conectores, todo lo que se necesita es obtener tecnología inalámbrica. Las tecnologías inalámbricas comenzaron como parte de un proyecto de investigación de la Universidad de Hawái. Sorprendentemente, se han mantenido por poco menos de 30 años. Los estudiantes residentes en las islas de Hawái necesitaban tecnologías inalámbricas para conectarse en las cuatro universidades existentes. El resultado de las investigaciones fue un programa llamado Alohanet, el cual fue predecesor del actual WLAN. Aunque en sus comienzos Alohanet no estaba organizada y contenía un conglomerado de redes, la misma alcanzaba su meta y cumplía su propósito de transmisión de data alcanzando 1-2 Mbps, la cual era bien impresionante para su tiempo. En los pasados años las redes tecnológicas inalámbricas han visto varias mejoras gradualmente y adaptaciones de protocolo que a su vez han crecido para alcanzar las necesidades de la industria. Las redes tecnológicas inalámbricas actualmente se han convertido más populares en la sociedad. Las agencias de gobierno, lugares públicos y negocios utilizan dicha...

...8½ Produced by Angelo Rizzoli. Directed by Federico Fellini. Screenplay by Federico Fellini, Tullio Pinelli, Ennio Flaiano, Brunello Rondi. Viewers expecting to sit back, relax and switch off for a couple of hours - this film is not for you. A barrage of dream sequences interrupted by brief encounters with endless characters; this is a piece of shamelessly self indulgent psychoanalysis on Fellini's part. Of course, this is exactly what he intended. The main character is that of Guido (played by Fellini himself) a director unable to complete his latest film and loosely based on the identity of his own creator (Fellini). Fellini has been able to achieve the effect of mise en abyme not only through the dream sequences but also with this being an autobiographical piece. Viewers are intentionally lulled into the false belief that they are watching a film about Fellini, not the character Guido. Throughout, obvious references to the films chaos and irregularities are made by characters through their criticism of the unfinished, fictional film. When giving Guido notes on his film, one character calls it 'a chain of gratuitous episodes' which pretty much describes Fellini's 8½ to perfection. In another scene Guido is criticised for his obsession with depicting 'Italy's Catholic conscience' which is also a reoccurring motif of Fellini's. He plays this game with the viewer by highlighting the inadequacies of his own film through the criticism of the fictional one. An endless array...

...oldwitchcraft.com 3 INTRODUCTION The science of numerology can be traced back thousands of years. The Chinese, Japanese, Greek, Hebrews, Egyptians, Phoenicians, early Christians, Mayans, and Incas all used some form of numerology to gain a deeper understanding of themselves and the universe. Numerology is perhaps the easiest of the occult arts to understand and use. All you need is the birth date and the complete name of an individual to unlock all of the secrets that the numbers hold. (Most authorities agree that the full birth name as recorded on your birth certificate is the name that must be used for all calculations involving name.) There are eleven numbers used in constructing Numerology charts. These numbers are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 11, and 22. Larger numbers that occur from adding the numbers in the complete birth date or from the values assigned to each name are reduced by adding the digits together until the sum achieved is one of the core numbers. Merely add the components of the larger number together (repeatedly, if necessary) until a single digit (or the "master" numbers 11 or 22) results. Each of these numbers represents different characteristics and expressions. Master numbers are the only exception to rule of reducing to the single digit. The master numbers 11 and 22 are intensified versions of the single digit number they replace (2 and 4). These numbers suggest a potential for a high degree of learning and/or achievement very often in a more stressful environment...

...The Concept of Program Reengineering J. Olivia Prince-Griffin PAD 500 Modern Public Administration Professor Popejoy May 19, 2012 Abstract This assignment will cover 4 specific areas as it relates to Mayor Schell’s unique initiative to eliminate homeless in Seattle. This report will cover Mayor Schell’s policies choices and their practical outcome. It will cover restructuring Mayor Schell’s program to fit new objectives. Lastly, the report will analyze the importance of conducting assessments prior to new program implementation. Introduction On June 2, 1998, Mayor Schell made a daunting pledge to the community regarding Seattle’s homeless population. He pledged that by Christmas of that year, there would be no more homeless on the streets of Seattle. During the following months Mayor Schell and his Director of the Community Services Division of the Department of Housing and Human Services, Alan Painter, diligently strategized on how to successfully meet this pledge while weighing all the applicable factors. Four Policy Choices of Mayor Schell At the time of Mayor Schell’s pledge, there was an estimated 5,500 homeless on the streets of Seattle nightly (Draft, 2010 pg.1). Of those, 1,300 were homeless while 4,200 had temporary housing (Draft, 2010, pg.1). At that point in time, Seattle had several local programs, such Operation Nightwatch, that assisted such ones with transitional living. One of the first policy choices Schell had make was to insure...

...Hanif Kureishi: The Decline of the West In a time where many people have gotten accustomed to having plenty of money and therefore buying a lot of stuff they do not actually need, a lot of these consumers have also experienced the downside of their materialism. The economic crisis has resulted in a lot of people losing their jobs, investments turning out badly and huge debts. But what happens when one of these individuals gets caught between a greedy family and his own desire to do what is right and stop spending money like there is no tomorrow? A desire emerging from not only being disgusted by the greedy consumerism but also from being laid off his job which forces him to take care of the family’s financial situation. This short story, The Decline of the West written in 2010 by the English writer Hanif Kureishi, deals with this theme and engages the reader in a brilliantly written story about a man who experiences the difficulties of the economic decline. Mike, a 45-year old man working in corporate finance, has been “stalked by good fortune [his] whole life” (l. 40) – at least that is what his father claims – but his luck turns when he is forced to dismiss his department of forty people and then get lost himself. Not ever having to worry about money before, his previous peace of mind is suddenly shattered to pieces. The short story starts in the middle of Mike getting ready to tell his wife the news but he is hindered in doing so when she does not even take the time to say...

...Public Housing in Urban Communities Abstract In this paper I will be discussing the many aspects of the public housing authorizes. Working for the Jersey City Housing Authority, I see first hand the many problems that are going on and also living in public housing I have seen the many ups and downs as well. For example, the budget cuts that are going on throughout the United States are causing more public housing to loose funding and are causing them to down size in staff and housing as well. Many of the public housing sites in the United States are privatizing because they don’t have the funding and staff to manage these sites that are considered to be severely distressed. What is public housing? According to the U.S Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD): Public housing was established to provide decent and safe housing for eligible low-income families, the elderly, and persons with disabilities. Public housing comes in all size and types, from scattered single family houses to high rise apartments for elderly families. There are approximately 1.2 million households living in public housing unites, managed by some 3,300 HAs. However, over the past few years public housing has changed. For example, there are less funding for public housing and now a lot of the public housing sites all over the United States are being privatized. In 1980, many changes started to occur in...

...This project was designed to address the housing needs for homeless/abused women and children and to find what funding is best suited for such a non profit endeavor. This research looks at the different aspects of public funding and private funding of non profits. This research draws upon mostly primarily sources such as interviews, books, articles, case studies. Most research was done on the reason that places women and children in the predicaments to put them in transitional housing and a look at “Ruth’s Place.” The goal for starting Ruth’s Place, a transitional home for women and children’s non-profit organization is to improving the future of women and children in the City of Philadelphia and Tri-State areas. After meeting with Directors of similar programs established in the City of Philadelphia, the goal of this research is to determine the need for another transitional home and the proper funding to create a program that will be effective in the lives of those we service. What is Transitional Housing? Transitional housing, sometimes called second stage housing, is a residency program that includes support services. Usually provided after crisis or homeless shelter, transitional housing is designed as a bridge to self-sufficiency and permanent housing. Residents usually remain from six months to two years, and are typically required to establish goals to work towards economic stability. Viewed along a continuum of services, transitional housing is placed...

...History of National Women's History Month The Beginning As recently as the 1970's, women's history was virtually an unknown topic in the K-12 curriculum or in general public consciousness. To address this situation, the Education Task Force of the Sonoma County (California) Commission on the Status of Women initiated a "Women's History Week" celebration for 1978. We chose the week of March 8 to make International Women's Day the focal point of the observance. The activities that were held met with enthusiastic response, and within a few years dozens of schools planned special programs for Women's History Week, over one-hundred community women participated in the Community Resource Women Project, an annual "Real Woman" Essay Contest drew hundreds of entries, and we were staging a marvelous annual parade and program in downtown Santa Rosa, California. Local Celebrations In 1979, a member of our groups was invited to participate in Women's History Institutes at Sarah Lawrence College, attended by the national leaders of organizations for women and girls. When they learned about our county-wide Women's History Week celebration, they decided to initiate similar celebrations within their own organizations and school districts. They also agreed to support our efforts to secure a Congressional Resolution declaring a "National Women's History Week." Together we succeeded! In 1981, Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-UT) and Rep. Barbara Mikulski (D-MD) co-sponsored the first Joint Congressional...

...Sindhuja Muppa November 21, 2013 Writing Workshop Mythology “Myths are common stories at the root of our universal existence” (Seger). In the essay written by Scott Russell Sanders, "The Men We Carry in Our Minds" discusses Sander’s perspective on men in comparison to the impression that women carry in their minds. The essay, “Creating the Myth” by Linda Seger shows on how stories are based on our own life experiences. Sander’s argument about how the impressions of men or women are based on ones life experiences relates to Seger’s depiction of myths through the use of rhetorical questions and dialogue. Primarily, Sander uses rhetorical questions in order to discuss how ones life experiences illustrates stories of myths. Sander addresses about when he experienced a situation where he met women telling him men have plenty of joy and privileges. He writes, “and for the first time I met women who told me that men are guilty of having kept all the joys and privileges of the earth for themselves. I was baffled. What privileges? What joys?” (Sander 229). Sander is shocked to find out that women feel that way about men. It is an amusing statement to assume that men have certain stereotypical characteristics in society because it is not necessarily true that woman cannot do some things similar to men. Life responsibilities are equally made for everyone. Sander disagrees and pushes back to how much of a struggle men have to go through in life, equally as women. These questions enable...

...Dear Emma, Whenever I see you on the street or at a shop, the only thing I want to do is grab your throat and squeeze so hard your eyes pop out. But any time that desire overtakes me, I remind myself that murdering you will be your easy way out. So instead of pushing you over a cliff, for example, I decided to take action in your exposure. Since I followed you home one evening (at least home was where I thought you were headed), I understood that you not only take regular advantage of Mr.Show, but you also get paid for your services. I was angry, for sure, because as you well know your husband is my very dear friend but I didn’t do anything, because I thought it wasn’t my business to begin with. Only three days after that, however, it turned out that you, filthy brat, has been offering yourself to the whole goddamned town. I was pissed, out of my mind. I imagined James, sitting at home, waiting for his wife to come back, while she, the dirty slut, has been god knows where with some wealthy bastard. Instead of doing the right thing though, I waited, only to later evidence the murder and robbery of your last victim – old Mr. Junior. That was the moment I wanted to kill you, rip your head off, but now I’m convinced that murder won’t be the proper punishment for you. I am man enough to give you a choice. A choice that erroneously made will ruin your life. I am presenting you the options – you are either confessing to your husband your nightly quests, which I hope he won’t bypass...
