Case 6–1
Moren Corporation (A)
Moren Corporation was building three additional generation
stations to serve its rapidly expanding energy market. To
link these stations with a total area grid, a new method of car-
rying the power lines using ornamental tubular poles instead
of towers had been adopted. Moren had had no previous op-
erating experience with poles and decided to subcontract the
design engineering, fabrication, and erection of the new line.
For the first phase of engineering design, Mr. Carter,
the vice president of supply, faced the responsibility of de-
ciding with which supplier the business was to be placed
after his staff had developed the information needed. He
was aware that Moren had only three years in which to
complete the entire project, and yet he had to ensure high-
quality work.

With cableco B2B revenues expected to quadruple by the end of this year, it’s no surprise that forward-thinking agents increasingly are opting to add cablecos to their portfolios. In addition to offering competitive and innovative services that suit an agent’s bottom line, cablecos present agents with benefits such as state-of-the-art infrastructure and established market presence. And with the demand for telecom services growing and the traditional telco market shrinking, cablecos are stepping in to satisfy the needs of a burgeoning market with whom, oftentimes, cablecos already have an established relationship. Whether it’s their robust offerings, their cost savings, or their trend-setting services, cablecos now “have emerged as the logical choice” for agents, Channel Partners reports.

Draw an ER/EER data model for the following scenario: You want to build a music database for a music streaming service similar to spotify or google music. For each music track, we will need to keep track of its name, the artist performing the track, the album the track performs on, and the time of the track. Some tracks have multiple artists. For some tracks, we will also separately note the composer (i.e. for classical music). Each album can contain multiple tracks, and may either be an album centered on one artist or may have tracks from multiple artists. Any track only appears on a single album (the same song appearing on multiple albums will be treated as multiple tracks). A track has a track number within the context of an album. Albums have a release date. Artists can be individuals (i.e. Michael Jackson), bands/groups (i.e. Led Zeppelin), or ensembles (i.e. the London Symphony Orchestra). Bands have members. Ensembles have leaders or composers. Individuals may appear in different roles on different albums (i.e. Michael Jackson as an individual or as a member of the Jackson Five). Albums may have labels (ex. Colombia) or may be independently produced by the artist (we need to know the difference for streaming royalties). Try to catch as much of this information in your ER diagram as possible. Add attributes as necessary. Note: it is ok to add auto-generated keys, but you should have keys noted in your diagram.

Draw a flow chart to illustrate the cycle that a grain of sand goes th.docxrtodd4
Draw a flow chart to illustrate the cycle that a grain of sand goes through according to the following passage. Your illustration should be based on the knowledge and information you have learned from the passageSummary Writing of Natural History of a Sand Grain The first part explains in detail the formation of the Sierra Nevada batholith in California during the Mesozoic Cretaceous. The subduction of the oceanic crust led to heat production, making the magma more buoyant and viscous, which led to the creation. As the lava gradually cooled and solidified, it gave rise to the granitic column that would later become the Sierra Nevada Batholith. Silicon and oxygen, along with other elements, formed crystals including quartz, feldspar and mica, the main elements in the batholiths. The mountains were created by tectonic action that elevated the granite core rocks and stripped away the surrounding rock layers. The quartz-rich sand that was exposed may have eventually turned into sandstone. California has fewer dinosaur fossils than other western states because of the restricted terrestrial environment of the Mesozoic era. Part II describes the voyage of a sand grain, beginning with how it formed in the Sierra Nevada batholith and ending with how it eventually reached the ocean. Sand grains were transported by rivers and streams to an ancient coastal basin where they were deposited in sandstone layers. The sandstone was raised by tectonic action and then broken up by weathering and erosion. The sand grains traveled through streams and mass erosion during physical and chemical weathering. Over time, it continued to flow faster in wider channels and downslopes, eventually reaching the ocean. This section highlights how anthropogenic barriers, such as dams, and changes in vegetation cover, such as after wildfires, may affect the long-term evolution of erosional and depositional environments. In particular, winter storms in California during fire season have resulted in some of the highest sediment yields ever recorded in the state's streams and rivers. Part III describes the journey of this sand grain from quartz crystals in granite batholiths to its eventual home on the seafloor. Streams and rivers carried the sand grains to an ancient coastal basin, where they were deposited with other materials and turned into sandstone. As tectonics raised it above sea level, the sandstone was exposed, worn and degraded over time. Eventually, the sand grains were carried into the ocean and dumped on beaches where they were subjected to waves and tides. The trapped sand grains then formed an integral part of a fresh sedimentary layer that was lithified into the sandstone at the bottom of the submarine canyon. In addition, this section describes the many beach sands that may be found in California, such as quartz, gypsum, feldspar, mica, hornblende, and magnetite, as well as scattered deposits of tar and asphalt. How human efforts, such as dam construction and beach.

Wilderness areas of various sizes including small wilderness areas are necessary to support all of the different species that can occur in the habitat being preserved. Corridors provide good locations for roads so that more people can experience the habitats found in Wilderness areas. Wilderness areas preserve segments of habitat to support populations of organisms. Larger wilderness areas with a large central area will contain more untouched habitat. Corridors occur between preserves and create passages to facilitate interbreeding between populations to support healthier populations of animals.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
