The document discusses issues with modern news media. It notes that access to vital information has become dependent on ability to pay as news corporations prioritize profits. This has created a gap between the information-rich who can afford elite publications and the information-poor. The evolution of news into a big business means it now exhibits commercial tendencies, compromising non-partisan reporting. Crucial information the public needs for political decisions is often confined to expensive publications.

The U.S. government announced a $700 billion bailout plan to purchase troubled assets from banks and other financial institutions in an effort to stabilize the financial system. The plan represents the most dramatic government intervention in private capital markets in decades. It comes after the bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers and government takeovers of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.

Bill Gates is collaborating with the German Development Minister on a $10 million project to reinvent the traditional western-style flush toilet. The new "waterless toilet" being developed would not require water, making sanitation facilities and clean water accessible for more people in developing areas like Kenya. The current toilet design is too expensive and uses too much water for many, but Gates' waterless solution aims to recycle wastes and provide a more feasible alternative to improve global sanitation and help achieve UN development goals.

Genevieve Bell is the director of Intel's Interaction and Experience Research Group. She believes storytelling is key to understanding technology trends. TV has had the biggest impact on how we tell stories, rearranging our relationship with time, space, and others. Better technologies for creating and sharing stories will help distinguish trends from fads. While new devices and experiences will continue, people fundamentally want social engagement and a good story.

Herbert Simon argues that our task is not to predict the future, but to shape it. He outlines three conditions for an acceptable future: 1) living sustainably within Earth's limits, 2) fair sharing of resources, and 3) reducing divisions between groups. Technology provides both opportunities and risks, and it is up to us to guide technology's development and use to foster beneficial outcomes for humanity. Computers in particular can help us understand human cognition and design a sustainable future by modeling minds and societies.
Siti Zulaiha Bte Kamarudin
The document discusses shaping the future rather than just predicting it. It argues that our task is to design a sustainable and acceptable future world characterized by living in peace with nature, sharing resources broadly and fairly, and eliminating divisions between groups. The key points are that achieving a sustainable future depends more on addressing people's basic desires than technology alone, and that through present efforts we can determine how sustainable the future will be by focusing on shaping the future rather than just forecasting it.

This article examines the relationship between salesperson usage of CRM technology and sales performance. The authors test the assumption that more CRM usage leads to better performance by developing a Technology Performance Model. They analyze data from 131 salespeople and find a curvilinear relationship, where CRM initially enhances performance up to a point, but beyond that point further usage diminishes and can disable performance. This offers valuable insight for practitioners on achieving optimal technology usage levels to maximize sales performance.
Luo Jia
This document discusses how customer relationship management (CRM) technology can impact sales performance. It provides background on how assessments of past technologies have led to the acceptance of CRM systems. CRM systems help automate marketing, sales, customer support, and product configuration. The document outlines factors to consider before and after implementing a CRM system, such as costs and degree of technology usage. It also discusses potential limitations, such as over- or underutilization of the technology, and dilemmas around monitoring employee technology use. The key takeaways are that CRM, if used appropriately, can optimize task performance but descriptions of actual CRM systems and how salespeople use them are vague.
Liu Rongxuan (Article)
This document discusses the evolving definition and meaning of technology assessment (TA). It tracks how TA originated in the late 1960s focused on policy analysis and societal impacts of technology, and how the definition and practice has expanded over time. TA is now seen as integrated with technology monitoring, forecasting, and aimed at facilitating sustainable development and technology management. The document also compares TA to other forms of impact assessment such as environmental impact assessment.
Liu Rongxuan
Technology assessment involves the systematic study of the effects of technology on society. It is used by both public and private organizations to help guide decision making in a proactive or reactive manner. The process involves defining the problem, describing the technology and social context, identifying and analyzing potential impacts, evaluating policy options, and communicating results to reduce future uncertainties and help guide sustainable development.

An engineer from Duke University has proposed a hybrid solar system that uses three renewable energy technologies to convert sunlight into electricity and hydrogen for individual households. The system combines solar, electrolysis, and fuel cell technologies to efficiently capture and store solar energy. While the initial installation costs are higher than fossil fuel generators, hybrid solar systems can compete with fossil fuels and help reduce dependence on natural gas plants. The system represents an environmentally friendly and innovative approach to renewable energy generation that may be worth exploring for implementation in high-rise buildings in Singapore.

Offshore wind farms are wind farms constructed in bodies of water to generate electricity from wind power. The document discusses the opposition to and approval of the first U.S. offshore wind farm in 2010. Key points of opposition included concerns that the giant turbines would disturb spiritual sites and burial grounds on the seabed. However, offshore wind farms help fight climate change by providing a renewable energy source with high potential due to higher and more constant wind speeds offshore.

Scientists have made a breakthrough in HIV treatment by altering immune cells to make them resistant to HIV. They modified T cells so they no longer express the CCR5 receptor that HIV uses to enter cells, preventing HIV from infecting the altered T cells. This represents a major step towards developing a cure for HIV as it may allow patients to stop relying on antiretroviral drugs, though more research is still needed as the altered T cells do not last forever in the body.

The document discusses a proposed technology called the Atmospheric Vortex Engine (AVE) that could generate electricity by artificially creating tornadoes. The AVE would mix hot and cold air to spin an artificial tornado, with hot air coming from existing heat sources like coal plants. It is predicted that an AVE could generate enough electricity to power a city of 500,000 people and be cheaper than other alternative energy systems. While harnessing tornadoes presents safety and stability challenges, proponents believe the technology has potential as a future renewable energy source.

This document summarizes an article about the possibility of producing meat in laboratories as an alternative to factory farming. It discusses Winston Churchill's prediction in 1932 that animal parts could be grown separately for food. Currently, the global livestock industry accounts for 20% of greenhouse gas emissions. The document outlines the issues with factory farming in terms of animal welfare and the environment. It notes that lab-grown meat could potentially use half the energy and 2% of farmland compared to conventional meat production. However, there are still many technical difficulties to overcome before lab-grown meat becomes commercially viable.
Lenard Lee - Food Ec & Consumer Choice
1) The global population is projected to reach 9 billion by 2050, requiring a 100% increase in global food production using virtually the same amount of land as today.
2) The UN FAO states that 70% of the additional food supply must come from efficiency-enhancing agricultural technologies, as only 20% can come from additional farmland and 10% from increased cropping intensity.
3) Failure to use science-based agricultural technologies and innovations to boost food production efficiency will have disastrous consequences, as a growing global population demands more safe, nutritious, and affordable food.
Terrence Liong
The document discusses genetically modified organisms (GMOs) and their role in agriculture. It notes that while GMOs are controversial due to safety and environmental risks, they are becoming more widespread globally to meet the needs of a growing population. The use of GMO crops and land for cultivation has increased substantially in recent years. The document argues that GMOs offer benefits to consumers like enhanced nutritional qualities and are difficult to resist due to traits like pesticide and drought resistance.
Tristan Neo
The document discusses a feasibility study assessing the policy impact of green technology initiatives to promote sustainable agriculture development in selected member countries of ESCAP-APCAEM. It provides background on APACEM and green technology, examines factors for selecting technologies, presents situation analyses and case studies on biogas in Nepal and biofuels in India, and concludes with key takeaways and an assessment of how green technologies can balance environmental and business concerns.
Lenard Lee
The document summarizes the need for agricultural technology to meet increasing global food demands. By 2050, the world population is projected to reach 9 billion people with rising affluence increasing food consumption. To feed everyone, food production must increase 100% by 2050. However, only limited increases in farmland and cropping intensity are possible. Therefore, improvements and new technologies will be critical to sustainably meet future food needs in a way that keeps food affordable and gives consumers choices. Examples show how past technologies have already substantially increased production efficiencies and yields while reducing environmental impacts.
Tristan Neo - Green Tech
This document provides a feasibility study and situation analysis of green technology applications in selected member countries of the United Nations ESCAP, including India, Malaysia, and Nepal. It finds that technologies like solar, wind, bioenergy, and improved efficiency have potential to increase agricultural outputs and meet growing global food demand in a sustainable way. The study examines linkages between green technologies and environmental sustainability, poverty reduction, income generation, and gender inclusion. It identifies promising technologies in the region like biogas, agroforestry, biofuels, and evaluates policy and impact. The analysis aims to inform future green technology initiatives and policy decisions to support sustainable agriculture and development in Asia and the Pacific.

Monsanto is a major producer of genetically engineered seeds that are modified to resist herbicides and pests. However, Monsanto has also received criticism for how it patents its seeds and requires farmers to sign contracts. The article discusses how Monsanto controls a large portion of the market for crops like soybeans, corn, and cotton through its genetically modified seeds. Some issues raised are whether gene modification can truly solve food shortages and improve lives, and if food companies have an ethical obligation to label foods that are genetically modified.

- 1. Do you know who she is?
- 2. The Somalian Refugee Crisis
- 3. The mass media, culture and society News agencies, transnationalisationand the new order Done by: Ivan Reddy
- 4. Content Article Overview Key takeaway messages Personal Rating Issues for Discussion
- 5. Article overview The free market system denies access to the vital information for the citizenry by making access a monetary function News broadcasting have been affected by corporations and big businesses Crucial and vital information can be found in elite newspapers and magazines Widening gap of the information rich and information poor
- 6. Key takeaway messages News agencies face a constant struggle in non-partisan reporting Evolution of news from a commodity to a big business exhibiting business tendencies as a whole A highly stratified system emerges where vital information needed for political judgments is confined to the elite publications only
- 8. Critics Having news is still good news Having chicken rice for lunch everyday is still good because I have food Wearing the same underwear everyday to class is still good because I have clothes “Why settle for mediocrity when one can strive for excellence”– Ivan Brandon Reddy
- 9. Personal Rating “If you don’t read the newspaper, you are uninformed. If you do read the newspaper, you are misinformed.” – Mark Twain
- 10. Issues for Discussion When you watch news on television today, how skeptical or receptive are you to it? Will there ever be a time when we experience totally neutral news reporting? Why/Why not?
Editor's Notes
- If people just settled for what they had and were contented, we would not have been able to develop and emerge into a state that we are in today.
- Extremely thought provoking piece of article for me.A piece that was mentally challenging and shed some light on how I could see things in a different perspectiveInteresting
