The Maritime Trade “A smooth sea never made a skillful sailor”. The quote of the max group marines genuinely reflects the use of the sea for navigation to facilitate trade. Trade has been an integral part of the socialization process of man since time memorial. The first attempts to trade were traditional through the form known as barter trade. However, trade has gradually developed and invented new methods of trade in the process of human civilization. Countries such as China have been known for their association with the trade that began before the 16th century. Following the European colonization of most of the Asian countries, the Chinese Maritime trade was invented. Ideally, the trade not only led to the growth of most the Asian countries, but it also contributed to shaping the forces of migration. Notably, the immigration patterns in the southern part of Asian could explain the changes that could be seen in the model of trade. Typically, evaluating the differences in the flow before the maritime and after, as well as the dynamics and impacts of the invasion…
Environmental policies INTRODUCTION Environmental policies are the standards established by the government to manage natural resources and environmental quality. The broad categories of ‘natural resources” and “environment quality” include such areas as air and water pollution, forest and wildlife, hazardous waste, agricultural practices, wetlands, and land use planning. Land resources are finite, fragile and non-renewable. The land is considered a capital and asset that provides the essential services for development and human well-being. Consequently, the demand and pressure on land are ever increasing. The main driving force leading to pressure on land resources is the increasing rate of population growth; hence require more food and shelter Nongovernmental Authorities assist the government in the implementation of the National Land Policy in a way that that will take into account sustainable conservation and management of the environment and land resources.NGos also help to promote and enhance best practices for sustainable land use through the establishment of environmentally significant areas for purposes of improving the protection and conservation of the environmental resources.NGOs worldwide help to promote sustainable urban agriculture. Through capacity building on…
A research of exploring advancement in crowd sensing through infrared based pedestrian counter Keywords: crowd monitoring, sensors, data analysis. Abstract: The term “crowd sensing” refers to sharing data collected by sensing devices with the aim to measure phenomena of common interest. It is increasingly finding its application in transport and traffic. The recent technological advancement in crowd-sensing has opened up new perspectives for cost-effective ways of managing the traffic congestion as well as safety in a critical situation such as evacuation. This project will explore the advancement in crowd sensing especially towards managing the passengers crowds at major transport systems. It will also provide an opportunity to work on data collection and analysis that involves crowd sensing through Smartphone. Introduction The management and control of crowds is a crucial problem for Human Life and Safety to carry out such task; there is an established practice of using extensive closed circuit television system. However, a significant number of video cameras often used by such systems require a massive recording and storage capacity and some people to observe the television monitors (Bertozzi,…
best time to get pregnant Sometimes no matter how much you plan your pregnancy, the baby comes at any time. You may, however, wish to plan when to conceive and when the baby will arrive. Researchers have come up with a rough sketch about how various seasons determine how the babies will turn out. The hormone levels on a woman can affect how a child turns out, and different seasons can influence these changes. And from the 1930s, scientists have tried to find the best time to get pregnant. Let’s start with spring babies who are thought to be smarter, at risk of asthma, and reach menopause earlier than others. Babies born during this season are vulnerable to asthma, perhaps because viruses that affect the respiratory system are more common during spring. But at least they will be bright. Babies born in summer are said to be jovial, less susceptible to pollen and grass allergies, and are likely to have fewer babies in the future. So, if you want tons of grandchildren, avoid these babies. Enough sun can be the…
Nina Fedoroff in her Ted Talk Nina Fedoroff in her Ted Talk named, “A secret weapon against Zika and other mosquito-borne diseases” says that Zika fever is the newest dreaded disease. For most adults, it is a mild disease. It is characterized by fever, headache, joint pain, and sometimes a rush. She says that most of the people who catch the virus do not even know that they have had it. The more that is revealed about the Z ika virus, the scarier it gets. For example, recently, doctors have noticed an uptick of Guillain-Barre Syndrome in the recent outbreaks of Zika fever. Guillain-Barre Syndrome is very rare, and people mostly recover, but pregnant mothers who contract it are at the risk of microcephaly, a condition where the brain and head of a child are smaller than that of children of their own gender and age. Like many other viruses, Fedoroff says, Zika virus came from Africa in the Zika forest of Uganda. Researchers from the nearby Yellow Fever Research institute identified the virus first in a monkey in the…
Meaning of Science If we notice, then we see science is all around us. Science is a field of systematic study and investigation of natural phenomena and occurrences by way of observation, a theoretical explanation as well as experimentation. Right now, the method of reading this and the existence is also a science. The process of breath; the process of creating air, is also a science. The food we eat, the water we drink, the air we exhale and inhale, the clothes we wear, all are based on scientific facts. Science is one of the most important and exciting subjects of study in the world. The atmosphere around us, the astronomy is also another branch of science. Branches of Science There are three branches of science which we have explained below. Physics Physics is a study of laws and properties that govern the behavior of all matter. In physics, we can prove those things that we cannot see but feel it, such as gravity. We cannot see gravity, but because of many experiences, we know that it is there. It…

The Concert review From the mid-twentieth century, the complete melodic process was re-evaluated from the songwriter to the audience, taking a chance and freedom into consideration. A chance operation refers to the process of creating anything, a composition in this case, against the will of the composer. John Cage used these operations to mimic nature’s existence and mode of operation. In the 1950s, he used the I Ching in his compositions, incorporating a symbol system to create chance-based compositions (Bandt). While they engaged in a chess match on an electronic chess board developed by one inventor, Lowell Cross, Cage and Duchamp came up with an impromptu composition “The Concert” using chance operations and which lasted for almost five hours. Contrary to the assumptions and criticism about their chess game, Cage and his fellow composers emphasized that the chance operation was based on the opening and closing of sixty-four photoresistors (Jones). The process also consisted of contact microphones, which made it possible for the listeners to hear the actual moves of the chess pieces of the board. A single move made…

y AVIATION SECURITY The air operations area is an airport area used for landing or turning of aircraft. Aviation security improvement Act is the amend law tat requires any other airport to use appropriate animals or dogs as a screening passenger to detect the presence of plastics or any other material that cannot be detected by the metal detectors. Behavior pattern recognition is not profiling the passenger on the religion or ace but behavior such as fear or stress. The explosive detector system is a non-destructive inspection that determines whether the bag contain explosives or not while explosive trace detection is explosive detection apparatus that detect small magnitudes of explosive. Transport vetting platforms is underlying software and hardware designed to promote secure flight while transport security officer is the person who conducts the security screening to the passengers. Travel document verification is checking if the passenger has the required travel documents. All cargo aircraft is the airplane that transports goods and mails rather than the passengers. Privacy rights legal traditions that protect one from government threatens or private action. TSA…
