...network of reliable communication, and the opportunity to exchange research results / resources around nation1. The original architecture of the Internet is often described as the architecture from end to end. From one end to the other decentralized architecture ", a mechanism should not be placed on the network if it can be placed at the endpoint," in which second heart This construction gives the network simple and universal. Since then, however, the scope of the Internet has grown exponentially. It has become more difficult for the network supported by the government on a scale of measurement so that the government released gradually into a network by the private sector. Since the government is not responsible for Internet access, private companies - Internet Service Provider (ISP) - were created to ensure access to this vast network. These vendors, of course, to private companies, the main objective to make a profit - a radical difference to the original purpose of the supplier, the U.S. government. The growth of the Internet service provider, today as the dominant players of the Internet was the catalyst for a more centralized network that goes from the original end to end design was injured this change negatively related to their group The most important of the Internet - the end user. One of the fundamental changes in the early days of the Internet was now the transition to...

A black or dark colored hot wire will be attached to one side from the conduit or Romex. Another hot wire will be attached to the other terminal on that side to send power to the light. The green ground wire will be attached to the green ground terminal on one end. A white neutral wire runs straight through from the incoming source to the light box. 4 Prepare the wires for connection to the combination. Make fresh cuts on the ends of both hot wires and the ground wire with wire cutters. Strip the ends of all three wires with the wire cutter blades to expose 1/2 inch of wire strands. Cut the neutral wire 10 inches from the incoming raceway. Strip both ends of the fresh cut. Also strip the ends of three extra wires for a 10-inch length and two 5-inch lengths. Twist the strands together between a thumb and finger at the ends of all the individual stripped exposures. 5 Connect the hot wires. Twist the end of the incoming hot wire around an end of both 5-inch extra lengths. Cover the joined ends by twisting on a wire nut. Connect the other ends of the extra lengths to both the bronze terminals on the same side of the combination. Wrap the bare wires around the terminals in clockwise...

...divided into those which are sought as means to some further end and those which they seek as good as ends in themselves. Obviously some things may be "good" as means to one end and "bad" as means to some other end. Different persons, motivated by different ends, will thus find different things "good" and "bad" (relative to their different ends). More food is "good" to a starving man, but it is "bad" to one overweight. In order for something to be good "without qualification" it must not be merely "good" as means to one end but "bad" as means to some other end. It must be sought as good totally independently of serving as a means to something else; it must be "good in-itself." Furthermore, while one thing may be good as means relative to a particular end, that "end" becomes a "means" relative to some other "end". So a college diploma may be sought as "good" as a means for the end of a higher-paying job. And a higher-paying job may be "good" as a means to increased financial security; and increased financial security may be "good" as a means to obtaining the necessities of life as well as a few of its luxuries. However, if we seek A only for the sake of B, and B only for the sake of C, etc., then there is never a justification for seeking A at the beginning of such a series unless there is something at the end of that series which we seek as a "good in-itself" not merely as means to some further end. Such an "ultimate" end would then be an "absolute" rather than a "relative" good...

...identifying the main difference between them, it will talk about the advantages and disadvantages for each other. Finally, it will come up with a conclusion. Unit trusts and investment trusts are two types of funds that people can invest in as a private investor in the world. They together form the very fundamental way of how funds operate. Unit trusts are‘open-ended’funds, which means that the size of the fund and the number of units depends on the amount of money investors put into the fund.(Arnold,2012:30) Moreover unit trust fund is an investment scheme where money from many investors is pooled together for collective investments, and is invested towards a specified goal as stated in the investment objective of the fund.(Fig1.1) (ambmutual.com) Arnold(2012) also claimed that investment trusts differ from unit trusts-they are companies able to issue shares and other securities rather than units. Investors can purchase these securities when the investment company is first launched or purchase shares in the secondary market from other investors. These are known as closed-end funds because the company itself is closed to new investors – if you wished to invest your money you would go to an existing investor to buy shares and not buy from the company. An open-end fund does not restrict the amount of shares that can be issued or redeemed at any time. Usually, at the end of each trading day, additional shares will be created or redeemed in relation to the fund’s net asset...

...Introduction Can a rotten egg make a good Omelet? The end/means dilemma is an old and popular scenario. The answer to this question depends on what the type of goals or ends are and what means are being used to achieve them. Moreover, Gandhi, pioneer and a theorist of satyagraha said, “I feel that our progress towards the goal will be in exact proportion to the purity of our means”. Indeed, according to the Gandhian philosophy, the means and ends are like the two sides of the same coin. They are inseparable from each other. That is why, for example, Gandhi struggled whole life against British and never adopted the wrong means. I. Do ends ethically justify their means? Most people use the expression "the ends justify the means" as an excuse...

...leader in Traditional and low-end segments of the sensor business by allocating significant resources to R&D, marketing and promotions for these products. Our differentiator would be the result of a high investment in R&D to ensure our products were the best available. The board decided that the company should be judged on its ability to make a profit, gain market share, provide positive ROA and make money for our shareholders with an increasing stock price. Our target was a stock price of $38 by year 6, with an increase in profit and ROA year-over-year. The complete Strategy Statement is attached as Appendix A. 2. A description of the strategic decisions made over time The team decided to focus primarily on Low-End and Traditional products because the majority of the market demand was in these two categories. We believed that if we could maintain a prominent presence in these two sectors we would be able to be successful. In order to gain a larger market share we moved products from the Performance and Size segments into Low End and Traditional, thereby doubling our presence within these markets. It was our belief that these products would then be cheaper to maintain from an R&D standpoint and have more potential to sell since market demand was so great between these two products. While High End, Performance, and Size were growing at a faster rate (Appendix B, Exhibit 1), they were not growing fast enough to surpass Low End or Traditional (Appendix B, Exhibit...

...provides neither any guarantee of individual rights against majority interests, nor any means of weighing high levels of pleasure for a few against lower levels of pleasure for greater numbers. http://www.utilitarian.org/faq.html What is the utilitarian position on monogamy vs. polygamy, marriage and adultery, capitalism vs. socialism, the legalisation of cannabis etc? It is a common mistake to suppose that utilitarians have a fixed approach to controversial political issues. While utilitarians agree on what the criteria for good social policy are (being its conformability to utility), we freely and commonly disagree on which policies are actually useful. We know which goals we should aim for, but we are no better equipped than any others in politics to decide which policies will, in practice, help us achieve those goals. One may ask a utilitarian what makes people happy, but one would be unlikely to receive a better answer than can be given by the psychologist. One may ask a utilitarian about the national debt, but would be unlikely to receive a better answer than...

...Synthesis Essay Different kinds of websites and books argue on the idea of whether the world is going to end in 2012 or not. All of them give reasons to persuade their readers as much as they could. When I went over some of the articles that talk about 2012, I asked, won’t those articles confuse people? Therefore, I have chosen two articles to see their effect over the readers. The first one is by Dr. Dr. Morrison David who is NAI senior scientist who answers a lot of questions that has been asked to NASA about 2012. The second one is by Dr. Archana who talks about different kinds of reasons why the world will end in 2012. Dr. Archana and Dr. Morrison have different opinions about 2012. Dr. Morrison says there is no evidence which proves the ending of the world is in 2012. According to him, people use this idea to make money out of it by creating different kinds of stories to persuade people (Dr. Morrison 7). In fact, He believes these kinds of concepts are products of Hollywood (Dr. Morrison 3). In the other side, Dr. Archana argues by saying “several experts are predicting that the earth is likely to end by the year 2012. The reason could be a human effect or natural disaster. From Chinese theories to scientific predictions the most likely date is the year 2012.” (Dr. Archana 1) Although Dr. Archana and Dr. Morrison agree in the presence of magnetic field, they give different view of what the earth’s magnetic field might cause. Dr. Morrison argues that there is slow movement...

...group examined Bayer financial statements to determine if the picture presented by Dekker is reflected in the financial performance of the firm by examining financial ratios using information from the Income statement and balance sheet. Financial ratios help to identify some of the financial strength and weakness of firms. The ratios give us two ways on making meaningful comparisons of the financial data. First, we examined the ratios across time ( for example, five years) to identify trends and we can compare the firm’s ratio with those of other firms. This financial analysis will allows us to see if Bayer is as good as management claims it to be. Analysis of Financial Ratios Bayer’s sales increased by 12.6% from 2009 to 2010, after dropping 5.3% from 2008 to 2009. However, Bayer’s gross profit margin remained stable, increasing from 47.20% in 2006, 49.50% in 2007, 50.00% in 2008, 51.44% in 2009 and 51.50% in 2010. On the other hand, Bayer net profit margin decreased over the same period, falling from 10.77% in 2008 to 9.64% in 2009 to 7.78% in 2010. The decrease in 2010 is more significant than the previous years, this is caused by 17.1% increased of operating costs 17.1%, partially due to an increase in Research & Development and partially due to “expenses related to significant legal risks” (Bayer AG 2011). Starting 2013, Bayer will make 800m per cuts to handle this increase. Bayer’s interest coverage ratio has remained steadily above five over the last five...
