Tower of Babel

As we all know, President Barack Obama’s second term is coming to an end, and we have a new President elect, Donald J. Trump. Let’s have a small background check on Donald Trump; he was a real estate entrepreneur, actor, and now a politician. Donald Trump was born in New York, NY on June 14, 1946. His family is full of immigrants. His grandmother and grandfather were born in Germany and they immigrated to the United States. His father was born in the states, but his mother in Scotland.

Since we were going to the city of Pisa, it was a no brainer that we had to go see the Leaning Tower of Pisa. When we arrived to the Piazza dei Miracoli, which is where the tower is located, I was overwhelmed with the amount of tourist trying to capture the impeccable image of themselves trying to make it look they were holding the leaning tower in place. It was impossible for me to snap this picture with no one in the background because there were far too many people…

For this sharing, I would like to focus on the telecommunication industry with Orange Senegal, a company which I believe has developed an excellent model to cope with the decline of the voice and reinvent itself. Organizations either small or big, profit or non-for profit have to control their internal environment, but as well to know what is happening in their external environment and how this can impact on their development.

traveled outside of the U.S. So I wasn 't sure if I 'd be able to identify foreign places from American places. I was shocked that none of the foreign landmarks used in the IAT were from Asian countries. There were pictures of the Eiffel tower, the leaning tower of Pisa, the Statue of Liberty, etc., but none of the landmarks appeared to be from Asian countries. The result from the test indicated that I have moderate automatic association for American with European American and Foreign…

As I watched the video of myself teaching, it was hard not to cringe; mainly because I…

The greater the mass, the more time it takes the object to hit the ground. While the larger the surface area, the faster it hit the ground. Because of the air resistance, larger surface area caused the object to fell faster than the object with smaller surface area. Although the background research proved that the mass doesn’t affect…

I remember when Donald Trump first announced his political run for office. He built his campaign on the slogan: We’re going to Make America Great Again, “reinforced” by his bold claim of “building a wall”. When Trump got down into the weeds with Megyn Kelly during the first Fox News Republican debate, I sensed Donald Trump was a proud and arrogant man. I went on my own campaign against him; making phone calls, writing emails, calling news agencies and talk shows, posting madly to Facebook —…

In the article USA Today we have one author's opinion and interpretation of Donald Trump’s inaugural speech last Friday. The article claims that this was Donald Trump’s first time to address the voters who did not vote for him, which is at the up most correct. However, the outlook of the speech might not have been as bad as some are lead to believe unless you witnessed first hand on the television and made your own educated interpretation and assumption. Dictating on how someone, especially the…
