Futurists: Feds to squash online freedom (Fortune) - 0 views

  •  
    Tech visionary Lawrence Lessig made a sobering prediction Tuesday at Fortune's Brainstorm Tech conference: "There's going to be an i-9/11 event," he said, "an event that demonstrates the instability of the Internet, and that inspires the government to a response." He said he believes this digital disaster - a major hacker attack or other act of cyber-terrorism in the next 10 years - will prompt the U.S. government to clamp down on Internet freedoms in an online parallel to the Patriot Act.

  • Thanks to the Internet, a new category of "online citizenry" or "netizens" has started to surface in the Middle East. This category of young and politically aware citizens, who are technology-savvy, has set a new vision and a more promising political map for the region (Kuebler 2011).

      This simple excerpt is a big fact about how technology is being used in other countries, mainly middle east to bring about positive change and awareness of corruption
  • ut the social media powers are not unlimited. Cyber-utopians tend to downplay the governments' role in censoring social media or even utilizing them to serve their purposes. The Internet's open nature allows governments to track down their opponents. "Governments create cyber-armies of hackers to discern possible enemies and send secret police to abduct these people during the night...Though many believe their comments online are safe since they are anonymous, what they do not realize is that the government has many ways of ripping off the 'protective' mask of anonymity to reveal the speaker of any comment" (Tung 2011).

British Airways - Job Vacancies - Jobs Worldwide - 0 views

  •  
    British Airways is the flag carrier and largest airline in the United Kingdom-headquartered in Waterside, Harmondsworth, England. It is the second-largest in the United Kingdom when measured by passengers carried. Actually, a British Airways Board was established by the UK government in 1972. They established it to manage the two nationalized airline corporations which are British Overseas Airways Corporation and British European Airways. On March 1974, all those companies including two smaller, regional airlines Cambrian Airways and Northeast Airlines were merged to form British Airways. After 13 years as a state company, British Airways was privatized in February 1987. It was part of a wider privatization plan by the Conservative Government.

Energy Healing - How to Balance Chakras and Energy Fields - Deborah King Center - 0 views

  •  
    "Energy Healing "A bodily disease, which we look upon as whole and entire within itself, may, after all, be but a symptom of some ailment in the spiritual part." Nathaniel Hawthorne wrote these words in the early nineteenth century, but it has taken the Western medical community some time to catch up. The idea that the mind plays an important part in the health of the body, however, is fast gaining acceptance in our empirically-oriented society. A recent study conducted by the East Tennessee State University Chattanooga Family Practice Residency Program found that more and more medical practitioners accept and encourage the role that alternative medicines and therapies play in healing. In a survey conducted through that study, it was found that sixty-five percent of physicians had prescribed at least one form of complementary or alternative therapy for their patients. About thirty-three percent had undergone some form of alternative therapy themselves. It was also found that doctors who had been practicing for ten or less years were more likely to view alternative medicine as viable and valuable. This step in the right direction is due to more exposure to alternative forms of healing and a greater awareness of patient needs. Hawthorne's observation that physical disorders were symptomatic of spiritual ailments is central to the concept of energy healing. When our life forces or energy fields are out of balance, physical illness can ensue. Energy healing seeks to use positive energy to create a better balance within the body. Also inherent in energy healing is the idea that all energy fields are interconnected. This allows energy healing practitioners to send energy to their patients, thus creating a more balanced and positive energy field. Energy healing can even be done from thousands of miles away. Perhaps one of the most prominent forms of energy healing is prayer. Paul Parker, a professor of theology at Elmhurst College, says: Judaism,

The Edjurist - Information on School and Educational Law - Blog - Acceptable... - 0 views

  •  
    Acceptable Use Policies developed as a result of legislation that attempted to govern how schools allowed students to use the Internet. While legislation usually did not directly call for their formation, it was sort of the implementation of choice for most schools around the country. The policy is basically a signed agreement documenting what's acceptable in using the Internet at school (although as Karl Fisch stated, it is really an unacceptable use policy as most of them are just a list of things that kids cannot do). Parents and students had to sign the AUP before they were granted any Internet privileges at school. In that way, it was sort of like a contract between the school and the student's family.

    The collaboration between Nappa Dori and Levi's has been a culmination of the minimalism that is at the core of our design aesthetic and the utilitarian aspect of denim produced at Levi Strauss & Co. At the heart of this collaboration is a mutual admiration of all things classic rather than allowing for trends to govern the final products.
