The Use of Coal for Power Should Continue
The development of science and technology has led to people considering using alternative fuels to generate electricity. There are many alternative fuels
that can generate electricity, such as natural gas, nuclear energy, wind energy, hydraulic power and so on (Fossil Fuels Used to Generate Electricity
Power Plant Emissions of North America). According to the statistics by the U.S. Energy Information Administration in 2009, the usage ofcoal was still
the largest source to generate the power. Sources of electricity in the United States were generated by 44.9% of coal, 20.3% of nuclear, 23.4% of
natural gas, 1% of petroleum, 6.9% of hydroelectric conventional and 3.6% of others (Electric Power Monthly with Data for February 2014). Coal ...

In 1930s the thermal power by coal, was becoming an unprecedented era of great development. In the mid of 1950s the capacity of thermal power
generating units improved from 200 to 300 megawatt to 600 megawatt. In 1973, the largest thermal power was 1300 MW. At the end of the 1980s,
the world's largest thermal power plant with a capacity of 4400 MW was Japan's Kagoshima thermal power plant. However, people found that the
bigger the unit, the lower the reliability and the availability. Thus in the early 1990s, the thermal power became stable at the unit capacity of 300 to
700 MW. (Barrow, 126)
Nowadays, coal is still one of the greatest used energy to generate power in so many countries. Using coal in electricity generation is 93% in South
African, 87% in Poland, 79% in China, 78% in Australia, 45% in USA, 41% in Germany, 58% in Israel etc. (Coal & Electricity) From the data
above, even the developed countries use coal to generate power as the main source. In many developed countries, energy generation is still based on
coal as a long–term source. In recent years, although there is an increasing number of equipment using gas and wind to generate the power, it is still
lower than the proportion of coal–fired power generation. The reason why most countries choose coal as a main source to generate electricity, is that
there are many advantages in using coal to generate electricity. First of all, coal is the

Persuasive Essay On California
According to the author Scott Smith, "Zooming through the Central Valley at 200 mph, the trains could unite northern and southern California like
never before" (par. 7). This will be so advantageous for the residents of California because it takes several days to travel from north to south California
unless an individual is traveling via an airplane, which could be expensive. Gina McCarthy, the administrator of the U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency, said "The all–electric trains, running on renewable energy, will take cars off highways and provide an effective alternative to flying on jet
fuel" (qtd. in Smith, par. 11). This is one of the main reasons we should develop this project in California because emissions are constantly damaging ...

My View Using Online Train Tickets Buying
Executive Summary:
In my view using online train tickets buying is very good, and also provides quicker service to the customers, which is easily accessible to the public.
As an enterprise architect (EA) I would implement this advanced buying or booking system but we should keep it safer. Through a detailed research
there would be many number of advantages and disadvantages of this system. We can know the availability and buying of the tickets online.
By implementing this system it reduces the public effort going to the train station and making a booking there, the customer can book online while he is
sitting in his home. Below SWOT analysis describes about the online ticket buying or booking in functional and non–functional point of view. Though
this system has weaknesses which have been mentioned in the SWOT analysis which can be avoided by taking counter measurements.

Change In Malcolm Gladwell's 'The Tipping Point'

Malcolm Gladwell's "The Tipping Point" is radical because he talks about how the environment can change people behavior. The environment could
have caused people to change for better or worst. For example: When people were placed in an environment of filth they are more violent and hectic
causing the crime rate to increase. When you come from a bad neighborhood you are statistically more likely to be dangerous and belligerent. If you
were to place people into a different environment, you can expect change (not saying it always work). Throughout the story Malcolm gives many
examples of change. He starts off by talking about four young men who were on a New Yorktrain. ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
The change came from simply fixing the trains, not from wanting to change but from cleaning up the environment. Showing that they are more than
what they see. Clean makes you feel better about yourself as for dirty makes you feel scum like. So why not act how you feel? It is events like what
I stated above that helped the people to see that change can be just as simple as cleaning the train. Being in an environment filled with filth, stench,
and nothingness in the air, can lead you to doing bad things. In the story four men were acting like they had something and when approached a man
were then shot. If you dig deeper, you truly find out the four young men didn't have an easy life. They came from a horrible place. Somewhere less
fortunate than they needed to be. That key setting caused them to react and see things more angrily and act out as such.
Malcolm Gladwell writes:
The encounter between Bernie Goetz and those four youths on the subway: Allen, Ramseur, Cabey, and Canty. At least two of them, according to
some reports, appear to have been on drugs at the time of the incident. They all came from the Claremont Village housing project in one of the worst

Disadvantages Of A Bus Rapid Transit
Transport is an integral part of national, economic, social and sustainable development that can produce both positive and negative effects on the
environment and the quality of life depending on the level of development and indicated preferences. Transportation is hence crucial for the growth of
any economy and trade, both of which are highly dependent on the conveyance of people and goods (Rodrigue et.al, 2006). The role of transportation
to urban dwellers cannot be overemphasised as transportation enables employment, education, health services and leisure (Wane, 2001).
Practically the production process cannot be complete unless inputs such as raw materials and labour can be moved from different locations; neither
can manufactured products be delivered to consumers, nor services carried out which emphasizes the need for an effective transport system (Rodrigue
et.al, 2006).

The Curitiba Bus Model which was proposed by the city planning philosophy of Mayor Jaime Lerner of the Brazilian city of Curitiba has since been
incorporated in other cities as TransMilenio in Bogota, Columbia; Metrovia in Guayaquil, Ecuador and the Orange Line of Los Angeles where urban
transport and urban growth are incongruous. The essence of a Bus Rapid Transit hence is to improve bus operating speed and reliability on arterial
streets by reducing or eliminating the various types of delay (Goodman et al, 2005).
The history of public transport development in Sub–Saharan Africa differs from one country to another. However, to date we may affirm that it is a

Noise Of Electrical Power Stations Essay
Noise analysis was performed at three locations: offices, Laboratories and control rooms near turbine in three electric power stations ( Shupra
Elkhiema, Cairo west and Cairo south) . Noise parameters were determined (e.g: LAeq,T, LCeq,T, LC–LA and noise climate L10–L90 for each
measurement location. The start of measurements was in Shopra Elkhiema electrical power station, Figure 1 shows the noise spectra measured at control
rooms, laboratories and offices within frequency range of 16–250Hz. The low frequency noises that causes complaints in control rooms, laboratories
and offices is usually generated from the air conditioning or ventilation system, turbines, transformers and water pumps which presents in the station.
Table 3 shows the measurement parameters selected for the study of low frequency noise in station. The acoustic pressure at 50 Hz is due to air
conditioning which is audible especially in the control room because it exceeds 50dB. Also, in some offices thesound of air condition cause annoyance
and cause worker complaints. Both control rooms and laboratory located near turbine. Also, the building which contains offices located near water

In general, however, the Indian government still maintains a great amount of control over the electricity sector. Its centralized control over the sector
remains largely intact and is directly accountable by the government to the people, thus indicative of a responsible government. With an annual
population growth of 1.3 percent (United Nations 2013), India's energy needs are growing, especially in regards to electricity. Because new energy
gains require multiples of power use, for the Indian economy to expand, electricity production has to rise more rapidly than total output. Thus far,
areas of India remain in the dark: the "rise of 122 percent in [electric] generation [has been] insufficient for continued expansion" (DeVotta, 138). Still,
the electricity sector has grown substantially since independence. Installed capacity in 1950 was 1,713 megawatts; by 2002 it had grown to 104,918
megawatts (Kale 2004). However, per capita annual electricity consumption, which increased from approximately 13 kilowatt–hours in 1951 to 365
kilowatt–hours in 2001, remains low. At the federal level, India's government has initiated a major policy initiative to makeelectricity generation and

Metro Rail Services At Kochi City
1Executive Summary
This project discusses the Metro rail services to be build in Kochi city. Rapid urbanization and intense commercial developments in the recent past
have resulted in steep rise in travel demand, putting Kochi's transport infrastructure to stress. With mega projects such as 'SMART CITY, 'INFO
PARK', 'FASHION CITY' and "Vellarpadam Container Terminal", etc. on the anvil, travel demand is expected to shoot up, strengthening the need
for augmenting the transport infrastructure in Kochi region. In the absence of a mass transport system, there has been a steep increase in the
number of personalized motor vehicles in GCDA area. The number of registered motor vehicles in this area was 68,271 in 1987 and it grown to
4,46,959 in the year 2003. 64% of these vehicles are two wheelers. This large number of motor vehicles is resulting in rise in air pollution, increased
number of road accidents, and slowing down of average vehicular speeds.
Peak hour traffic demand on Alwaye–Petta Corridor has been assessed as 13,681 phpdt for the year 2015 and this is likely to increase 21065 phpdt by
the year 2025. Road–based public transport, therefore, can not meet this demand. There is an urgent need to introduce a light Metro system in the city

the trains had graffiti all around the trains and the space inside was no better. Just down right filthy. So, in your opinion how do you think the people
reacted to it? Badly! They see trash and started to act like it. You are what you surround yourself with. Malcolm wrote,"The Tipping Point in this
epidemic, though, isn't a particular kind of person...... It's something physical like graffiti. The impetus to engage in a certain kind of behavior is not
coming from a certain kind of person but from a feature of the environment" (152). Seeing the graffiti made people think it was acceptable to act out.
That made the person change, not because they wanted to but due to the surroundings. Once the train was clean there was no reason to think about
doing criminal activity. When the trains got cleaned up there were "75–percent fewer felonies than there had been at the decade's start" (151). By
simply cleaning the New York train system, it transformed the whole atmosphere and it became safer to ride the train. The change came from simply

The Growth Of Early Los Angeles
To tell the story of the growth of early Los Angeles it is necessary to visit the culturally significant union station in old downtown on Alameda street.
The buildings owes it begging to the American phenomenon of the railroad, the institution that allowed for American expansion into the modern era
and more specifically the growth of the west coast metropolis of Los Angeles that prior was just a small Spanish town. Just across the street from the
Avila adobe, one of the first and oldest existing Spanish settlements in L.A., lays Union station, a building that holds on to the city's Spanish roots
through Spanish mission style architecture. At the time of its erection, the building not only told the story of the small Spanish town that Los Angeles
was but also hinted at the industrial metropolis that Los Angeles would be through the art deco language. Through the fine usage and mixture of
elements at a macro and micro scale, Union Station successfully mixes the two languages of Art Deco modern and Spanish mission style to form a
landmark that is a remnant of a significant transitional period in LA's history. Just like many other U.S cities during the early 20th century los angles
experienced a period of unprecedented industrial growth and population increase that followed. Furthermore there was the need for a transportation hub
that would serve as a common stop for vital transcontinental rail lines that supported the city's industry, which included the Union Pacific

The Marine Corps Air Station Beaufort, South Carolina
In 1997 I was a Marine Aircraft Firefighter stationed at the Marine Corps Air Station Beaufort, South Carolina. One of the tasks we performed was
performing static displays for groups touring the base. Two places every tour group would visit was the military police and the fire station; we
were the fire station. Staff Sergeant Draughn and I (we were both supervisors) stood in front of these children while our Marines performed a drill
where an alarm would sound; they would come down the slide from upstairs, get dressed roll about 30 yards, pull out the hoses and put out either
the simulated fire or a small controlled fire. On this particular occasion it was a group elementary school kids from the local school district.
Draughn looked at me and said. "Look at these kids, just think, as innocent as they look now, in about 10 to 15 years some will be murders, and
criminals." I laughed and agreed; realizing that criminals come from everyday walks of life; as I reflect that was the first time I can truly pinpoint the

ORIGIN AND GROWTH OF ELECTRICITY
The history of electricity can be traced back to the eighteenth century. The first instance of sensing the phenomenon of electricity was the accidental
observation of what was later found out to be neon glow by Framas Bauksbw in 1709 at the Royal Society in London. Luigi Galvani observed
moving of the legs of a dead frog when touched with a metal scalpel. This also was later found to have happened due to production of electricity by
chemical process. Almost at the same time, Alessandro Volta made the first form of battery. Thus a new phenomenon, the Electric current, was

The emergence of more Power Stations and Transmission lines throughout the country didn't take much time. Till 1948,Electricity generation,
transmission and distribution were governed by Electricity Act 1910. The Government used to give licences for generation, transmission and
distribution of power. But this type of approach was not conducive to a balanced and sufficient growth in this key sector. There was absence of
co–ordination and a meaningful orientation for fast development of the power sector. The importance of electricity industry was duly recognized by
that time and an active role in the field was taken by the government.
State Electricity Boards
When India got independence, the installed capacity of the country was a meagre 1940 MW. The enacting of the Electricity Supply Act 1948 paved
the way for establishing the State Electricity Boards. It was a major keystone in the history of Electricity in India, which brought this prime industry
under the public sector. There were major steps in the legal framework for the power sector. The whole picture of enactments in the sector will be dealt

Descriptive Essay About South Boston
10. South Boston
Known as one of the oldest neighborhoods in the city, South Boston is placed on a peninsula that extends into the Boston Harbor. It is linked to the
rest of the city through a narrow strip of land. Over the years, this strip of land has been gradually widened through landfill.
For over a century, South Boston has been one of the most populated neighborhoods in the city. In the mid–1800s, it was the third most populous
section of Boston. Over the year, new residential subdivisions have developed in the neighborhood. Each new subdivision has a unique character and
architectural style. Telegraph Hill and Dorchester Heights were both created in the middle of the 19th century to house the city's growing population
base.
Originally annexed by Boston in 1804, this neighborhood really started to thrive in the mid–19th century when the Old Colony Railroad made reaching
downtown Boston easy. Before long, it was a center of industry with shipyards, iron foundries and machine shops popping up everywhere. Today,
industrial buildings can still be found on the northern side of the peninsula.
Modern South Boston has many long–time residents as well as young professionals. With its easy access to downtown, this area is popular among
commuters. It boasts of a thriving nightlife scene and open spaces. Miles of waterfront parks and beaches can be found at areas like L Street Beach,

The Tokyo Railway Station Building
The Tokyo railway station building is located in Chiyoda, Tokyo, Japan in the Marunouchi business district. The station which acts as Tokyo's main
intercity terminal is served by the Tokyo Metro network, Japan Railways' regional commuter lines as well as the Shinkansen high speed railway lines.
The Tokyo Station also has a reputation of being the busiest station in the country, judging by the number of trains it serves per day; approximately
three thousand trains in one day. Furthermore, the train station has a hotel and gallery within its premises. In terms of architecture and historical
culture, the station actually has a long history that dates back more than a hundred years, thereby making it one of the one of the few major examples
of buildings designed in classical style remaining in Tokyo, and Japan as a whole.
Chronicle information of the building Even though the Tokyo Station was constructed in 1914, its actual plan is connected to thehistory of Japan's rail
in the 1880s (Ito n.p). It is therefore viewed by the Japanese as being significant in the advancement of rail technology and as a symbolic structure
within Japan. By 1885, several railway tracks were already passing through Tokyo, thereby necessitating the need for a central terminal to be built in
the region between Ueno and Shinbashi. The station which was to accommodate Tokyo's entire network was simply referred to as the "central

Radio Stations Of New Zealand
There are more radio stations in New Zealand per head of population than any other country in the world. This means individual stations need to jostle
for their unique positioning in the market. One way to evaluate the similarities and differences between radio stations is to conduct a Content analysis.
Radio stations define their market positionings through differences in structure, talk focus, announcing style, music, advertisements, self–promotion,
competitions, types of callers and news information. We can see this by contrasting Mediaworks hip hopstation 'Mai FM' to New Zealand Media and
Entertainment's (NZME) boomers station 'Coast. '
First developed by Harold Lasswell in 1927, Content analysis was initially a way of studying propaganda in the mass media (Macnamara, 2011). The
methodology has evolved over the years, but the most basic way to describe content analysis is that it summarises any form of content by counting
various aspects of the content (Franzosi, 2008). According to Berelson (as cited in Macnamara, 2011) some purposes of content analysis include to
discover certain trends in communication texts, to compare media and how they communicate and to predict the effects of content on audiences. The
reason I am using content analysis as oppose to more systematic and objective approaches is that it allows me to develop precise explanations
concerning trends in media content whereas impressionistic approaches are better for describing the content, as there is no

Observation Of Teaching A Teacher's Classroom
I have a good friend, Courtney, who is doing her student teaching in a fourth–grade classroom at Faubion elementary school, and she arranged for me to
come in to observe her cooperating teacher's classroom. On Friday, December 1st at 10 o'clock I had the opportunity to observe Mrs. Makara's
classroom for 45 minutes while the class was doing reading stations. The class is organized into six table groups with five students in each group.
Mrs. Makara's overhead screen hangs in the front of the room near her table. I noticed that the class was arranged this way in order for all the
students to all easily see the screen as well as collaborate with one another for the assignments and projects that are assigned in class. When I came
into the classroom Mrs. Makara was finishing up teaching a math lesson. She was using a document camera to project the worksheet that students had
in front of them on screen. She was also using a microphone while talking to the class. Courtney later informed me that was because one of their
students has a hearing impairment so both Courtney and Mrs. Makara use the microphone when speaking to the class. Mrs. Makara assigned a couple
of math problems for the students to work with their table groups to figure out. After each group figured out the answer to the problem Mrs. Makara
asked for one volunteer to come up and project their work on the overhead projector. The student showed her work and talked through how her group
figured out the solution. Afterward, Mrs. Makara asked all the students to put away their math work and get ready for reading stations.
While the students were working to put away their math work Mrs. Makara used her computer to pull up a slide showing the different reading
stations. When I asked my friend about how the students were split into groups she informed me that they split them up based on their reading levels
because in their class the reading levels are at a wide spectrum. There are some students who are reading at a sixth–grade level and others that are
reading at a K–1 level. Therefore, the only way they could differentiate reading instruction was by splitting the students into groups based on their

This is what they are trying to teach my child right now, but he only knows really simple things from the picture schedule. I think this is something
that should have been started a little while ago, but this is my teachers first year to have this child, so I'm not sure if the other teacher/teachers he had
worked on this program with him. This program teaches children to use pictures to peel off of a booklet and give to the teacher, or caregiver to show
them what it is they want. She also uses group time to incorporate social interaction amongst all the children in the room.
My teacher seems to think that one of the biggest areas of struggle for this child is that he has seizures; and when he has one, it puts him to sleep for
the rest of the day usually. This makes him unbale to participate in the group times, and work stations. She said that he can sometimes have up to three
during the school week, so that means that he would be missing three days of learning and social interaction. There really is not anything that they
can do about him sleeping after he has a seizure because it causes a child to be worn out and takes a lot out of

The Use Of Coal For Power Should Continue

  • 1. The Use of Coal for Power Should Continue The development of science and technology has led to people considering using alternative fuels to generate electricity. There are many alternative fuels that can generate electricity, such as natural gas, nuclear energy, wind energy, hydraulic power and so on (Fossil Fuels Used to Generate Electricity Power Plant Emissions of North America). According to the statistics by the U.S. Energy Information Administration in 2009, the usage ofcoal was still the largest source to generate the power. Sources of electricity in the United States were generated by 44.9% of coal, 20.3% of nuclear, 23.4% of natural gas, 1% of petroleum, 6.9% of hydroelectric conventional and 3.6% of others (Electric Power Monthly with Data for February 2014). Coal ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... In 1930s the thermal power by coal, was becoming an unprecedented era of great development. In the mid of 1950s the capacity of thermal power generating units improved from 200 to 300 megawatt to 600 megawatt. In 1973, the largest thermal power was 1300 MW. At the end of the 1980s, the world's largest thermal power plant with a capacity of 4400 MW was Japan's Kagoshima thermal power plant. However, people found that the bigger the unit, the lower the reliability and the availability. Thus in the early 1990s, the thermal power became stable at the unit capacity of 300 to 700 MW. (Barrow, 126) Nowadays, coal is still one of the greatest used energy to generate power in so many countries. Using coal in electricity generation is 93% in South African, 87% in Poland, 79% in China, 78% in Australia, 45% in USA, 41% in Germany, 58% in Israel etc. (Coal & Electricity) From the data above, even the developed countries use coal to generate power as the main source. In many developed countries, energy generation is still based on coal as a long–term source. In recent years, although there is an increasing number of equipment using gas and wind to generate the power, it is still lower than the proportion of coal–fired power generation. The reason why most countries choose coal as a main source to generate electricity, is that there are many advantages in using coal to generate electricity. First of all, coal is the ...

  • 2. Persuasive Essay On California According to the author Scott Smith, "Zooming through the Central Valley at 200 mph, the trains could unite northern and southern California like never before" (par. 7). This will be so advantageous for the residents of California because it takes several days to travel from north to south California unless an individual is traveling via an airplane, which could be expensive. Gina McCarthy, the administrator of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, said "The all–electric trains, running on renewable energy, will take cars off highways and provide an effective alternative to flying on jet fuel" (qtd. in Smith, par. 11). This is one of the main reasons we should develop this project in California because emissions are constantly damaging ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... This project will be worthless, if the train stations are too far from the city. Upon completion, this project will be an example because nowhere in the United States people have seen a high–speed train, which has been working successfully in more than dozen countries around the globe. Apart from this mass transit project, the authorities should consider the other challenges that this huge project might face in the near future. The Uber is one of such challenges that will hit this project just like a tsunami hits the coast. The Uber is a transportation network company which brings an individual a taxi to any location without the hassle of waiting. This app is continuously gaining popularity among masses and it has already started operation in other countries including Canada, Australia, Singapore, Pakistan, and India. The Uber does not require users to pay the fare as a cash, rather it charges the fare via the app. However, like every invention, it has certain setbacks as well. In "Uber's Rough Ride," Joe Nocera states "Uber does what the best Internet companies do. It disrupts a business model that has existed for a very long ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 3. My View Using Online Train Tickets Buying Executive Summary: In my view using online train tickets buying is very good, and also provides quicker service to the customers, which is easily accessible to the public. As an enterprise architect (EA) I would implement this advanced buying or booking system but we should keep it safer. Through a detailed research there would be many number of advantages and disadvantages of this system. We can know the availability and buying of the tickets online. By implementing this system it reduces the public effort going to the train station and making a booking there, the customer can book online while he is sitting in his home. Below SWOT analysis describes about the online ticket buying or booking in functional and non–functional point of view. Though this system has weaknesses which have been mentioned in the SWOT analysis which can be avoided by taking counter measurements. Introduction: Sydney trains are owned by Government of New South Wales which operates all passenger rails in the metropolitan area, Sydney trains are subsidiary of transport for New South Wales, and the train networks are spohicated and cover all Sydney and all suburbs of the Sydney.

  • 4. Change In Malcolm Gladwell's 'The Tipping Point' Amber Anderson Joel Williams ENC1101/LEC/07 10/25/2017 Close Reading Malcolm Gladwell's "The Tipping Point" is radical because he talks about how the environment can change people behavior. The environment could have caused people to change for better or worst. For example: When people were placed in an environment of filth they are more violent and hectic causing the crime rate to increase. When you come from a bad neighborhood you are statistically more likely to be dangerous and belligerent. If you were to place people into a different environment, you can expect change (not saying it always work). Throughout the story Malcolm gives many examples of change. He starts off by talking about four young men who were on a New Yorktrain. ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... The change came from simply fixing the trains, not from wanting to change but from cleaning up the environment. Showing that they are more than what they see. Clean makes you feel better about yourself as for dirty makes you feel scum like. So why not act how you feel? It is events like what I stated above that helped the people to see that change can be just as simple as cleaning the train. Being in an environment filled with filth, stench, and nothingness in the air, can lead you to doing bad things. In the story four men were acting like they had something and when approached a man were then shot. If you dig deeper, you truly find out the four young men didn't have an easy life. They came from a horrible place. Somewhere less fortunate than they needed to be. That key setting caused them to react and see things more angrily and act out as such. Malcolm Gladwell writes: The encounter between Bernie Goetz and those four youths on the subway: Allen, Ramseur, Cabey, and Canty. At least two of them, according to some reports, appear to have been on drugs at the time of the incident. They all came from the Claremont Village housing project in one of the worst parts of the South Bronx. Cabey was, at the time, under indictment for armed robbery. Canty had a prior felony for possession of stolen property. Allen had been previously arrested for attempted assault. ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 5. Disadvantages Of A Bus Rapid Transit Transport is an integral part of national, economic, social and sustainable development that can produce both positive and negative effects on the environment and the quality of life depending on the level of development and indicated preferences. Transportation is hence crucial for the growth of any economy and trade, both of which are highly dependent on the conveyance of people and goods (Rodrigue et.al, 2006). The role of transportation to urban dwellers cannot be overemphasised as transportation enables employment, education, health services and leisure (Wane, 2001). Practically the production process cannot be complete unless inputs such as raw materials and labour can be moved from different locations; neither can manufactured products be delivered to consumers, nor services carried out which emphasizes the need for an effective transport system (Rodrigue et.al, 2006). Public transportation ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... The Curitiba Bus Model which was proposed by the city planning philosophy of Mayor Jaime Lerner of the Brazilian city of Curitiba has since been incorporated in other cities as TransMilenio in Bogota, Columbia; Metrovia in Guayaquil, Ecuador and the Orange Line of Los Angeles where urban transport and urban growth are incongruous. The essence of a Bus Rapid Transit hence is to improve bus operating speed and reliability on arterial streets by reducing or eliminating the various types of delay (Goodman et al, 2005). The history of public transport development in Sub–Saharan Africa differs from one country to another. However, to date we may affirm that it is a sector which remains poorly organised across the continent. Many companies were created in various countries, even several times in the same country, but the vast majority of them have failed. (Addo, ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

USE was expanded to include field consultants and market managers and today it gives franchisees, store managers and employees a chance to see and taste new products for upcoming seasons that are intended to address the changing preferences of customers. The merchandising plan for seasonal and high–potential new products is also shared. The centerpiece of the USE is the virtual 7–Eleven store, actual size 7–Eleven floor plans are built to show how seasonal products are assimilated into the standard store mix (7–Eleven About Us, 2010). For future reference, this capability should be the tool whereby the adjustments necessary to accommodate a drive thru capability are visualized and ultimately realized. For perspective, as of January 2010, 7–Eleven, Inc. had earned the No. 3 spot on Entrepreneur magazine annual Franchise 500, which ranks top franchise opportunities in the U.S. An obviously healthy organization, this is 7–Eleven's 17th year to break into the top 10 (7–Eleven Inc, 2010).

  • 8. Noise Of Electrical Power Stations Essay Noise analysis was performed at three locations: offices, Laboratories and control rooms near turbine in three electric power stations ( Shupra Elkhiema, Cairo west and Cairo south) . Noise parameters were determined (e.g: LAeq,T, LCeq,T, LC–LA and noise climate L10–L90 for each measurement location. The start of measurements was in Shopra Elkhiema electrical power station, Figure 1 shows the noise spectra measured at control rooms, laboratories and offices within frequency range of 16–250Hz. The low frequency noises that causes complaints in control rooms, laboratories and offices is usually generated from the air conditioning or ventilation system, turbines, transformers and water pumps which presents in the station. Table 3 shows the measurement parameters selected for the study of low frequency noise in station. The acoustic pressure at 50 Hz is due to air conditioning which is audible especially in the control room because it exceeds 50dB. Also, in some offices thesound of air condition cause annoyance and cause worker complaints. Both control rooms and laboratory located near turbine.

Utility services covers a wide range of activity including electricity, water, transportation and Telecommunication.

In general, however, the Indian government still maintains a great amount of control over the electricity sector. Its centralized control over the sector remains largely intact and is directly accountable by the government to the people, thus indicative of a responsible government. With an annual population growth of 1.3 percent (United Nations 2013), India's energy needs are growing, especially in regards to electricity. Because new energy gains require multiples of power use, for the Indian economy to expand, electricity production has to rise more rapidly than total output. Thus far, areas of India remain in the dark: the "rise of 122 percent in [electric] generation [has been] insufficient for continued expansion" (DeVotta, 138). Still, the electricity sector has grown substantially since independence. Installed capacity in 1950 was 1,713 megawatts; by 2002 it had grown to 104,918 megawatts (Kale 2004). However, per capita annual electricity consumption, which increased from approximately 13 kilowatt–hours in 1951 to 365 kilowatt–hours in 2001, remains low. At the federal level, India's government has initiated a major policy initiative to makeelectricity generation and supply commercially viable.

With mega projects such as 'SMART CITY, 'INFO PARK', 'FASHION CITY' and "Vellarpadam Container Terminal", etc. on the anvil, travel demand is expected to shoot up, strengthening the need for augmenting the transport infrastructure in Kochi region. In the absence of a mass transport system, there has been a steep increase in the number of personalized motor vehicles in GCDA area. The number of registered motor vehicles in this area was 68,271 in 1987 and it grown to 4,46,959 in the year 2003. 64% of these vehicles are two wheelers. This large number of motor vehicles is resulting in rise in air pollution, increased number of road accidents, and slowing down of average vehicular speeds.

  • 23. Malcolm Gladwell : The Tipping Point By Malcolm Gladwell Malcolm Gladwell– The Tipping Point Malcolm Gladwell's "The Tipping Point" is radical because he talks about how the environment can change people behavior. The environment could have caused people to change for better or worst. For example: When people were placed in an environment of filth they are more violent and hectic causing the crime rate to increase. When you come from a bad neighborhood you are statistically more likely to be dangerous and belligerent. If you were to place people into a different environment, you can expect change (not saying it always work). Throughout the story Malcolm gives many examples of change. He starts off by talking about four young men who were on a New Yorktrain. They had asked a man for five dollars when unsuspectedly the man shot them. The author then goes on to talk about the variables that went into the shooting making it more specific. They said the cause was the graffiti and dirty train. But then he goes to explain the bigger picture by explaining this current situation through other situations if not similar. Events like the one stated above caused a big transformation on the New York train system. Before the trains had graffiti all around the trains and the space inside was no better. Just down right filthy. So, in your opinion how do you think the people reacted to it? Badly! They see trash and started to act like it. You are what you surround yourself with. Malcolm wrote,"The Tipping Point in this epidemic, though, isn't a particular kind of person...... It's something physical like graffiti. The impetus to engage in a certain kind of behavior is not coming from a certain kind of person but from a feature of the environment" (152). Seeing the graffiti made people think it was acceptable to act out. That made the person change, not because they wanted to but due to the surroundings. Once the train was clean there was no reason to think about doing criminal activity. When the trains got cleaned up there were "75–percent fewer felonies than there had been at the decade's start" (151). By simply cleaning the New York train system, it transformed the whole atmosphere and it became safer to ride the train. The change came from simply fixing the trains, not from ...

It is linked to the rest of the city through a narrow strip of land. Over the years, this strip of land has been gradually widened through landfill. For over a century, South Boston has been one of the most populated neighborhoods in the city. In the mid–1800s, it was the third most populous section of Boston. Over the year, new residential subdivisions have developed in the neighborhood. Each new subdivision has a unique character and architectural style. Telegraph Hill and Dorchester Heights were both created in the middle of the 19th century to house the city's growing population base.

  • 35. The Tokyo Railway Station Building The Tokyo railway station building is located in Chiyoda, Tokyo, Japan in the Marunouchi business district. The station which acts as Tokyo's main intercity terminal is served by the Tokyo Metro network, Japan Railways' regional commuter lines as well as the Shinkansen high speed railway lines. The Tokyo Station also has a reputation of being the busiest station in the country, judging by the number of trains it serves per day; approximately three thousand trains in one day. Furthermore, the train station has a hotel and gallery within its premises. In terms of architecture and historical culture, the station actually has a long history that dates back more than a hundred years, thereby making it one of the one of the few major examples of buildings designed in classical style remaining in Tokyo, and Japan as a whole. Chronicle information of the building Even though the Tokyo Station was constructed in 1914, its actual plan is connected to thehistory of Japan's rail in the 1880s (Ito n.p). It is therefore viewed by the Japanese as being significant in the advancement of rail technology and as a symbolic structure within Japan. By 1885, several railway tracks were already passing through Tokyo, thereby necessitating the need for a central terminal to be built in the region between Ueno and Shinbashi. The station which was to accommodate Tokyo's entire network was simply referred to as the "central terminal" (Ito n.p). The project for the Tokyo Station was first offered ...

Gale tossed over his shoulder as he continued sprinting. The other side of the pavement had been too overcrowded with bustling pedestrians, and the roads were a'rollin with automobiles and Gale didn't fancy gettin rolled, not when he had a train to catch. "Go chase yourself!" the Mrs. Grundy shouted, but Gale paid her no mind, already turning around the corner. It was a nice summer day in Panem. The flappers were already out and about, strolling on the sidewalks with their French cigars a lit, and hounds of Sheik's with their bellbottoms and racoon coats following the smoke trail. Not that Gale could turn his nose up to that, not when he was runnin' after a broad himself. After narrowly dodging a Model–T and cutting through an indignant group of youngin's playin' kick the can, Gale finally reached the looming train station, in all its Art Deco glory. Chest heavin' from runnin' four blocks, Gale pulls out a hankie from his frayed overall and wipes at his face, hopin' it gets at the grease and sweat. He don't need his Ma to tell him his hair is beyond salvation but he still takes off his cap and runs a hand through it; he can't talk to his doll lookin' like a tosser.

  • 38. Reflection Paper On Fitness Welcome to Fitness In my life so far, there have been very few instances where I honestly thought about giving up. I like to believe I am a very strong willed and sometimes stubborn person. I also believe everyone has moments where they reach their limit and must decide whether or not to raise the bar. My first day of track practice was one of those moments. I don't believe I fully understood what I was getting myself into that day. I walked through the gym door nervous and filled with a mixture of anxiety and excitement. The first thing I noticed was how many people there were. The entire gym had people circling the perimeter. I mean it was insane. It felt like everyone I had ever known to be in sports was there. People I had never even said a word to had managed find to their way to the gym. I was out of my league and out of my mind. I couldn't do this. I'm going to make a fool of myself. Everyone here is conditioned for this and they've done this before. They know what is going to happen. I was standing there, looking around like an idiot. The first person I recognize and actually talk to is Franky. I attempt to casually sneak my way over to him. I feel like a fish out of water. I decide that if I ever get confused as to what to do I must have a plan. Ask Franky. That was the best I could come up with. The warm ups and stretching weren't so bad. I was left out of breath from the quicker ones, but I felt I would recover in time for the real workout. When coach shouted ...

  • 39. Radio Stations Of New Zealand There are more radio stations in New Zealand per head of population than any other country in the world. This means individual stations need to jostle for their unique positioning in the market. One way to evaluate the similarities and differences between radio stations is to conduct a Content analysis. Radio stations define their market positionings through differences in structure, talk focus, announcing style, music, advertisements, self–promotion, competitions, types of callers and news information. We can see this by contrasting Mediaworks hip hopstation 'Mai FM' to New Zealand Media and Entertainment's (NZME) boomers station 'Coast. ' First developed by Harold Lasswell in 1927, Content analysis was initially a way of studying propaganda in the mass media (Macnamara, 2011). The methodology has evolved over the years, but the most basic way to describe content analysis is that it summarises any form of content by counting various aspects of the content (Franzosi, 2008). According to Berelson (as cited in Macnamara, 2011) some purposes of content analysis include to discover certain trends in communication texts, to compare media and how they communicate and to predict the effects of content on audiences. The reason I am using content analysis as oppose to more systematic and objective approaches is that it allows me to develop precise explanations concerning trends in media content whereas impressionistic approaches are better for describing the content, as there is no ...

All mega–cities face similar problems however the problems in Lagos are intensified due to the fact that the population growth has exceeded infrastructure capabilities. The housing facilities, water supply, road space, transport, solid waste disposal and piped water services are unable to keep up with the high speed of growing urbanization in Lagos due to the high population, population density, lack of finance and poor infrastructure. ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– 2 ACTIONS Lagos is currently embarking on urban regeneration schemes to try and demolish informal settlements and build better housing for the affected families. In 1949, the Urban Redevelopment Act was passed. This act focused on removing residential slums and providing safe and sanitary housing for people. However this Act was not well thought off at all. It was severely criticized as it did not reconstruct the promised 9 new units of low cost housing for every dwelling torn down. In 1954, an amendment to this act was offered. Instead of demolishing these slums, focus would be placed on rehabilitating and conserving existing dwellings. Habitat Management Programme for Poverty Alleviation. This was started in 1998 ...

According to "Code Red", an extensively researched article published in The Hamilton Spectator in 2010, the most underdeveloped area of Hamilton exists in its downtown district. The proposed Light Rail Transit system is a public transit project that could revolutionize the downtown core of Hamilton, Ontario and improve the city's rate of urban development. This report will discuss and justify a proposal for a North–South route, including three stations/stops, and rejected routes and stations. Background of the proposed LRT system in Hamilton I.

  • 45. Observation Of Teaching A Teacher's Classroom I have a good friend, Courtney, who is doing her student teaching in a fourth–grade classroom at Faubion elementary school, and she arranged for me to come in to observe her cooperating teacher's classroom. On Friday, December 1st at 10 o'clock I had the opportunity to observe Mrs. Makara's classroom for 45 minutes while the class was doing reading stations. The class is organized into six table groups with five students in each group. Mrs. Makara's overhead screen hangs in the front of the room near her table. I noticed that the class was arranged this way in order for all the students to all easily see the screen as well as collaborate with one another for the assignments and projects that are assigned in class. When I came into the classroom Mrs. Makara was finishing up teaching a math lesson. She was using a document camera to project the worksheet that students had in front of them on screen. She was also using a microphone while talking to the class. Courtney later informed me that was because one of their students has a hearing impairment so both Courtney and Mrs. Makara use the microphone when speaking to the class. Mrs. Makara assigned a couple of math problems for the students to work with their table groups to figure out. After each group figured out the answer to the problem Mrs. Makara asked for one volunteer to come up and project their work on the overhead projector. The student showed her work and talked through how her group figured out the solution. Afterward, Mrs. Makara asked all the students to put away their math work and get ready for reading stations. While the students were working to put away their math work Mrs. Makara used her computer to pull up a slide showing the different reading stations. When I asked my friend about how the students were split into groups she informed me that they split them up based on their reading levels because in their class the reading levels are at a wide spectrum. There are some students who are reading at a sixth–grade level and others that are reading at a K–1 level. Therefore, the only way they could differentiate reading instruction was by splitting the students into groups based on their reading levels and having them go to the stations that ...

He is non–verbal, but can mimic words that he hears; when I was helping him brush his teeth, he kept saying, "Brush my teeth," and once we were finished he was saying, "Good job." All the times that I have been with him, he shows me a very sweet side, but the teacher and aides were telling me that he can get kind of violent and throw chairs and stuff around the room.

This is what they are trying to teach my child right now, but he only knows really simple things from the picture schedule. I think this is something that should have been started a little while ago, but this is my teachers first year to have this child, so I'm not sure if the other teacher/teachers he had worked on this program with him. This program teaches children to use pictures to peel off of a booklet and give to the teacher, or caregiver to show them what it is they want. She also uses group time to incorporate social interaction amongst all the children in the room. My teacher seems to think that one of the biggest areas of struggle for this child is that he has seizures; and when he has one, it puts him to sleep for the rest of the day usually. This makes him unbale to participate in the group times, and work stations. She said that he can sometimes have up to three during the school week, so that means that he would be missing three days of learning and social interaction. There really is not anything that they can do about him sleeping after he has a seizure because it causes a child to be worn out and takes a lot out of ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
