...A japanes song By: Aomori When summer comes, The paddy pools grow warm The mud lark and the singing frog Are happy, are happy Thinking they're in bath. When winter comes, The paddy pools are filmed with ice, The mud lark and the singing frog Must think their heaven has stretched Has stretched and grown above. When spring comes There's water in the paddy pools The mud lark and the singing frog Are happy, are happy Thinking they're in the sea. When autumn comes, The hills and dales turn red The mud lark and the singing frog Craning their necks above, Must think of the hills are on fire. The Tame Bird and the Free Bird by: Rabindranath Tagore THE tame bird was in a cage, the free bird was in the forest. They met when the time came, it was a decree of fate. The free bird cries, 'O my love, let us fly to the wood.' The cage bird whispers, 'Come hither, let us both live in the cage.' Says the free bird, 'Among bars, where is there room to spread one's wings?' 'Alas,' cries the caged bird, 'I should not know where to sit perched in the sky.' The free bird cries, 'My darling, sing the songs of the woodlands.' The cage bird sings, 'Sit by my side, I'll teach you the speech of the learned.' The forest bird cries, 'No, ah no! songs can never be taught.' The cage bird says, 'Alas for me, I know not the songs of the woodlands.' There love is intense with longing, but they never can fly wing to wing. Through the bars of the...

...cause of death and disability for children and teenagers in the United States. The physical, social, cultural, and economic environments in which they live can significantly increase or decrease their injury risks. Children face a variety of situations that put them at risk for injury. Awareness of age-specific risks are key to effective prevention. Let’s look at the toddler age-group. Because of their size, growth and development, inexperience, and natural curiosity, they are particularly vulnerable to injury also referred as unintended injuries. Though, Toddlers are exposed to many types of injuries such as: Motor Vehicle, Suffocation, Drowning Poisoning, Fire/Burns, fall, Recreation. However, the most common cause of unintentional injury death for children age 1-4 years was a motor vehicle (MV) crash, with the majority of events involving a vehicle occupant. While properly used restraints can reduce serious injury by up to 70%. A child riding on a lap is not protected but is at double risk: Not only is it physically impossible for the parent to keep the child from being thrown into the windshield and dashboard, but if the adult is not wearing seat belt, the force of the adult’s body may crush the child. Although laws requiring seat-belt use are now in force in all 50 states, many parents fail to use safety restraints. This is the simplest and easiest way to keep a young child safe. Children at this age level are less likely to be injured as pedestrians than are older...

...MEMO Lit Motors have created a vehicle that will be the future of personal transportation. The C-1 is a vehicle powered by electricity with designs that share the safety and comfort of a car and functions of a motorcycle such as enabling the vehicle to reach up to 100 mile-per-hour and permitting 45 degree banked turns. This memo will use concepts such as strategy positioning, strategy design and disruptive technology to analyse the company’s approach towards the product. The design of this product is the essence of their strategy in order to obtain competitive advantage. CEO of Lit Motors, Daniel Kim, have built their design inhouse. By doing this, they can control all R&D processes and eliminates unnecessary errors from outsourcing. The company’s main design focuses on manufacturing their own gyroscope that enables the vehicle to self-balance and maintain an upright position continuously. Another design that Kim has focused on, is the amenities and securities of a car. Therefore the C-1 contains a steering wheel, acceleration and brake pedals just like a car. Nevertheless, the vehicle will manoeuvre side to side like a motorcycle but will do it automatically, depending on how you steer the wheel. In addition, strategically creating this design concept allows this innovation to reduce the complexity of manufacturing an automotive product according to the respective region. For example, having the steering wheel placed in the centre of the vehicle, will create opportunities for...

...the last that is remaining being grabbed by the richest that are able to afford it by paying a huge premium for it. It sounds like a situation that will happen in far future, but all of us need to realize and be aware of the fact that the so called ‘far future’ is just 4 decades away. Can we envision a world sustaining without oil reserves? Can we still be ignorant of the fact that the oil reserves are getting completely drained up in the near future? Can we still continue comfortably the same level of oil consumption? One needs to act upon to save the oil, use it very meticulously and postpone the exhaustion of the oil reserves by as much as possible. All of it can start with initiative as simple as - • Turning off the engine of motor vehicles while one idles at the Traffic Light Though it seems to be very small saving, it will definitely make a big difference when considered holistically. And studies did reveal the benefits of such actions. Such small initiative will not only result in saving of the oil but also gives many other cascading benefits. But all it needs is awareness and realization in the general public. If we can successfully market the cause and call for the action, the public will definitely join hands. In India, domestically the oil production is roughly 0.69 million barrels per day. But the demand for oil is 2.2 million barrels per day. Hence, only 30% of the demand is met by the domestic oil reserves and the excess 70% of the oil required is imported by India...

...On September 6, 2011, McAfee released a report titled “Caution: Malware Ahead,’ specifically detailing potential threats to the car industry. As consumers call for more and more connectivity in their lives, car manufacturers are following suit. Manufacturers are providing more and more ways for consumers to remain connected from Bluetooth technology to mobile hotspots in vehicles. This connectivity, along with the complexity of cars today, directly contributes to many major systems and subsystems of a car relying on embedded controllers. The automobile industry continues to make cars more and more complex, but has not continued to make sure that embedded controllers are secure. Research has shown that this technology can be hacked. Hackers could even use technology like OnStar© to determine a driver’s current location. This article spoke of a security consultant at the Black Hat conference was able to lock and unlock a car by sending text messages from a smartphone (Champman, 2011). All of this added technology could also lead to a hacker being able to access your Personally Identifiable Information (PII) and/or other personal data. What the automobile industry does not realize is that it is cheaper to build security in, that have to develop it as an afterthought. Just the thought of a hacker being able to access subsystems within my car is pretty scary! I am attaching Caution: Malware Ahead for your reading pleasure as well. Chapman, G. (2011, September 6).
