Gun control is a highly engaged debated topic and always has been. Many people feel banning guns and creating gun free zones is the answer to stopping mass shooting and people being killed daily. Except they’re wrong. According to Freedom Outpost, 92 percent of mass shooting have occurred in gun free zones. Why? The answer is simple, bad guys know good people do not have guns to protect themselves. One argument that reoccurs is not the gun that kills, but the people who kill with a gun. "The…

As a new teacher, it is always helpful to talk with other teachers to see what their classrooms look like, this way I can get an idea of the rights and wrongs for classroom instruction, behavior management, etc. The teacher I interviewed has been teaching for 5 years so she is a fairly new teacher, but everything that she said I could connect with. Her ideas and values in teaching seemed almost similar to my own. This interview let me see the teacher’s philosophy of teaching and break it down…

The Lower Merion School District provided laptop computers to high school students as part of a one to one program. The program allowed the students to bring home a laptop computer provided by the school district. Unbeknownst to the students or their parents the laptop computers were all programed with spyware that gave the school district access to the computers’ webcam. The goal of the one to one program was to increase the connectivity between home and school for students. The access to…

advancements in warfare were always surfacing; some meant to improve fighting tactics and others were intended to end conflict at a faster rate. In the 19th century Warfare was changed tremendously with the development of the musket, the rifle, and the machine-gun as they increased the effectiveness of previous weaponry, changed in design, and increased the death toll. To begin, a musket is muzzle-loaded smooth firearm that is fired from the shoulder.…

Organization has always been a tremendous asset for the human race, pivotal to our very survival and ability to learn. This is entirely dependent upon the ability to sort, categorize, and separate the world around us into easy to find like object groups. When civilizations began to form, society was no exception, people have always been divided into groups based on common similarities such as race, gender, income or profession. The division was particularly strong in Victorian England near the…

This abstract is a summary of research into malware called ‘Blue Pill’. It was developed by a security researcher named Joanna Rutkowska, a low-level security and stealth malware researcher. Her intention was to show that a prototype malware, code-named Blue Pill, could "100 percent undetectable” (Vaas, 2007). She created it as part of a research project. It worked by bypassing Microsoft 's digital signature protection for kernel mode drivers. The Blue Pill malware is like the movie, “The…

failures. The first hour of The Imitation Game demonstrates the growing frustration of the team trying to break the enigma code. They try their hardest in every possible way they can, but they do not succeed until Turing miraculously discovers that the machine must be programmed to a word or phrase that it would be able to recognize in most, if not all, Nazi messages. I think the film has a decent way of portraying the mathematics, but it could explain more concrete mathematics rather than…

been overcome by a user, even if he is not the one who originally programmed him. “”Tron” has a message: that computers could become “big brothers” which run our lives, and that the best way to counter this is “from the inside,” by understanding the machines so well they can’t mislead or divert us.” To be prepared for this possible threat, that a program similar to MCP could come and control more than just one company, possibly the world, people are going to have to know how computers work.…
