just another manic wednesday

just another manic wednesday i really loved joons everyday post, so here is my own unnecessarily detailed day! watch as i stumble my way through like sixteen hours without ever leaving a ~0.04 km^2 area. dis boi long, so buckle up (and feel free to skim, if youre into that). Location: East Campus Although this image is small, if you look in the bottom left corner youll see a scale: the lines are 30m, or 100ft. 6.02 am: i wake up abruptly from a dream in which i miss my flight home.01 im leaving in eight days, next thursday, and damn am i ready to be home although i should be trying to get back to sleep, instead i start thinking about all the stuff i have to do to get ready to leave for the summer. as i do, tentative lines from a poem pop into my head. and a few more, and a few more. 6.05 am: i actually open my eyes02 the morning light comes in bright blue around the edges of my windowshade, and my room is painted blue; i feel deliciously underwater. in order to write down the poem on the paper i keep by my bed. here it is, scanned, below. (please keep in mind: it wasnt light enough to actually see the paper and i had just woken up. this is like a zeroth draft) 6.17 am ??: i try and fail to go back to sleep. ?? 9.24 am: i actually go back to sleep. my roommates alarm wakes me, but i was getting up in six minutes anyway. 9.24 9.35 am: i check my email and catch up on MITConfessions. 9.35 9.45 am: i reluctantly get out of bed, debate showering and decide to do it tonight, use the bathroom, and throw on some clothes. 9.45 9.57 am: i walk over to the kitchen03 every floor in east campus has its own communal kitchen, fridges, stoves, and all and eat my traditional weekday breakfast of almond milk and applesauce. Location: Building 26 9.57 am: i go to 6.009 recitation to get my checkoff.04 lots of lab classes will have you work independently, then explain your work to a TA or LA (lab assistant) to receive full points. i am number 16 in the queue, but i quickly jump to the top; no clue who changed their minds. despite technical issue strugs, i get the checkoff! its my last one for this class (today is the last day that any assignments can be due, since classes end tomorrow). 10.15 10.58 am: normally there would be an actual recitation being held during this time, so now i dont really know what to do with myself; i only woke up for 10 am because i was worried the checkoff queue would be long. i start writing this blog post and help out a friend, also at recitation, who hasnt finished the lab yet. Location: Stata Center right after i made this one, i realized my class is actually over a little to the right, so its moved in the other images. shhh ?? 10.58 am 12.25 pm: i walk over to my linguistics class, 24.9000. its our last meeting and im really sad ive had so much fun in this class! today our topic is how languages change over time, and oh boy do i nerd out about etymology (which was one of my fave topics in high school). 12.25 pm: right next to my class is the stata cafe.05 its basically a miniature dining hall -- it has tons of food options and is usually packed during lunch, since the closest actual dining hall is fifteen minutes walk away. i pick up my usual, their vegan06 im not vegan, but i am lactose intolerant, and i swear to god EVERY other food they sell is covered in cheese indian food. Location: Building 26 12.28 12.55 pm: my friend from linguistics has also picked up lunch at stata; we walk over to the Banana Lounge07 this is new in the past couple years -- a student government committee, UA innovation, spearheaded a student lounge with places to work and sleep, and which is always in stock with bananas. there are honestly very few good study spaces on this side of campus, so its always well-used. in 26 to eat. 12.57 1.56 pm: im back in 26-100, where my 6.009 recitation was, for 18.03 lecture. like linguistics, this is our last lecture, but im a little less sad about this: i love the content of this class, but i dont always feel that its being well taught. towards the end of the semester ive started zoning out more than i should in lecture. 1.57 2.54 pm: i have a UROP meeting at 3 in stata, so i dont want to head all the way08 when you spend all your time in one place, five hundred meters starts to seem a lot more like a trek home just yet. i go back to the banana lounge to update this post, read facebook, and contemplate whether i should study for my test tomorrow09 my last one before finals! im so close to release asdjfsldf or take a nap. in fact, it turns out im too tired to have willpower, so instead i just hang around on the internet for twenty minutes, then do a few practice problems for my physics exam next week. shrug emoji Location: Stata Center 2.58 3.15 pm: my UROP meeting is quite short! the grad student i work with and i mostly prep for the longer meeting we have tomorrow with our PI. this is good, because its freakin cold in there, for some reason. i head home to snuggle under some blankets until my next meeting (also for my UROP, also in Stata). on my way back, i spot some people selling tshirts that are a very pretty red and look soft! i am now the new owner of: Location: East Campus 3.17 4.46 pm: even my room is cold :( but two blankets and a soft couch helps! i update this post and do a bunch more physics practice problems. notice that i have not yet studied for the test tomorrow? i am scared to. i tell myself that if i finish all my other work first, then i will be able to tackle it unfettered. thinking face Location: Stata Center 4.46 5.35 pm: back over to stata for another UROP meeting! (i take a different, more indoors route, because i am cold.) i tell my supervisor about how i have not been able to solve the problem i was given at all and the code base is not doing what i think it should be doing. my supervisor tells me that she also does not know how to solve this problem and thinks the code base, which i didnt write, is just borked. i am extremely comforted (and wish i had spent a little less time near tears trying to fix this). Location: East Campus 5.40 7.18 pm: and with that last meeting, im home for the day?? everything gets a lot simpler now that i can work on my own schedule. on my way home, i stop to take a couple pretty photos! yay for spring :) i plop down on my couch and finish off the physics problems10 and surf the internet, and listen to music with my roommate... :D i am very happy, because this represents most of my studying for that exam and now i can put it behind me for a while. 7.18 8.05 pm: then i get hungry. i made rice pilaf yesterday and had leftovers, plus i froze a big batch of curry a while ago; i make liberal use of the microwave to cook a yummy dinner. it is The Dinner Hour, so the kitchen and lounge are full of people! we hang out. it is fun. 8.05 9.57 pm: i finally begin to study, somewhat frantically, for my test. it is Latin translation; I have 60 lines of poetry left, plus reviewing the other 200+ lines ive already done. 9.57 pm: i finish translating all 60 lines!!!! i feel glorious. especially since HouseComm11 east campus has a biweekly house meeting, attended by the exec, representatives from each of the ten floors, and any other resident who wants to go. is at 10. 10.05 11 pm: the floor that is in charge of snacks brought oreos AND fresh fruit. i am delighted, thank you 41w!! we discuss changes to our rooming process and elect a new secretary. 11 midnight: i intend to keep reviewing for my test, and i kinda do that, but also wordpress takes a long-ass time to upload images, so really i just finish off this post. overall, this was not my most productive of days, but thats OK, because i didnt have too much to do! plus, by this point in the semester im pretty burned out, so i try not to judge myself too harshly. today i walked a paltry 4,500 steps, but thats also OK, because wednesday isnt one of my workout days. (although theres a gym in stata, so if it was, i wouldnt even have to break out of my 0.04 km^2 box!) midnight: bedtime at last! i need to wake up at 9.30 for a meeting, and it takes me like 20 minutes to get ready for bed, and like another 30 to fall asleep, and i need more than eight hours of sleep to feel rested (thanks body .) and so, about four hours earlier than everyone else i live with, i go to bed. good night and sweet dreams, everybody 3 Post Tagged #A Day In The Life Of #East Campus i'm leaving in eight days, next thursday, and damn am i ready to be home back to text ? the morning light comes in bright blue around the edges of my windowshade, and my room is painted blue; i feel deliciously underwater. back to text ? every floor in east campus has its own communal kitchen, fridges, stoves, and all back to text ? lots of lab classes will have you work independently, then explain your work to a TA or LA (lab assistant) to receive full points. back to text ? it's basically a miniature dining hall -- it has tons of food options and is usually packed during lunch, since the closest actual dining hall is fifteen minutes' walk away. back to text ? i'm not vegan, but i am lactose intolerant, and i swear to god EVERY other food they sell is covered in cheese back to text ? this is new in the past couple years -- a student government committee, UA innovation, spearheaded a student lounge with places to work and sleep, and which is always in stock with bananas. there are honestly very few good study spaces on this side of campus, so it's always well-used. back to text ? when you spend all your time in one place, five hundred meters starts to seem a lot more like a trek back to text ? my last one before finals! i'm so close to release asdjfsldf back to text ? and surf the internet, and listen to music with my roommate... back to text ? east campus has a biweekly house meeting, attended by the exec, representatives from each of the ten floors, and any other resident who wants to go. back to text ?

Starbucks The Success Of Starbucks - 1080 Words

What factors accounted for the extraordinary success of Starbucks in the early 1990s? What was so compelling about the Starbucks value proposition? What brand image did Starbucks develop during this period? The factors for the extraordinary success of Starbucks is all due to the vision of Howard Schultz. Schultz wanted to change the coffee drinking experience by establishing benefits to create value in the coffee drinking experience. One of his vision was to recreate the coffee culture in Italy where people can come to relax and socialize. Schultz’s idea changed the American people’s perspective and experience of drinking coffee in an inviting environment. Starbuck’s main strategy was to be known as a company owned shop which allowed Starbucks to have a full control of the coffee quality. They work with their suppliers to control the supply chain and enforce their coffee standards to keep the quality high. This strategy resulted in establishing their high brand image for Starbucks. Employees of Starbucks were trained to make the customer service pleasant for customers and that created a welcoming experience which made the customers feel special. Schultz believed tha t happy employees would result in higher customer satisfaction so Starbucks employees are very well paid along with stock options and healthcare benefits.

Resilience Free Essays

Resilience No matter how old, or young you are there Is no doubt that life has had a tough and rigorous grip on you. It could have been so rough that you think that there Is no way to recover. But you seem to always recover In time. We will write a custom essay sample on Resilience or any similar topic only for you Order Now This Is the meaning of human resilience. It Is the ablllty to be knocked down by life but picked back up and become stronger by yourself. The way you become stronger Is not only based off of yourself (internal sources) but by your environment (external sources). With these sources you can become resilient to life and always become stronger! To be resilient means, â€Å"the power or ability to return to the original form, position, etc. , after being bent, compressed, or stretched; elasticity. † (The Free Dictionary). This definition would be for the non-living. Just like a tree being blown in the wind it will bend all it can but as soon as the wind stops it will regain Its normal posture. This is what we humans do too! We all take pressure from life, whether it’s good or bad, we will become stressed or hurt (bent like the tree). As soon as that pressure goes away we can recover to our normal being. The oak fought the wind and was broken, the willow bent when It must and survived. † (Robert Jordan, The Fires of Heaven). Just Ilke this willow tree, we must bend when life takes Its toll on us. Humans have the ablllty to recover, so we must use it often to survive life’s rough times. Overall the meaning of human resilience is the ability to recover quickly when we are being bent from life’s everyday pressures. Human resilience comes from internal and external sources. The external source is the environment that you are in. I say it is the environment because environments ive you more options to be able to be resilient. Here is an example. If you live in a small rundown town In Virginia, which has basically no companies or industries thriving In the area, compared to New York City. New York City is a place full of opportunities to become resilient because there Is so many companies and Industries that are growing, so you will have a much greater chance to recover from something if you would live in New York City just like Jeannette Walls. The main idea is that if you are becoming resilient it would be easier in the right environment, with he right opportunities just like in the Glass Castle. The most important source is the internal source, which is our mind and soul. Without our mind and soul we would have no self-motivation, and without self- motivation we cannot be resilient. â€Å"No matter how much falls on us, we keep plowing ahead. That’s the only way to keep the roads clear. † (Greg Kincacid) This quote is perfect because it shows self-motivation! Without it you cannot keep plowing ahead. Everyone who Is resilient has self-motivation, Just Ilke Jeannette Walls when she was otivated to leave Vlrglnla and to move to New York. How to cite Resilience, Papers

Strength and Weakness of the Antenna-Free-Samples for Student

Questions: 1.Different antenna, such as yagi, horn, and celluar antennas, etc. has different merits. Research these technologies in details and pay specific attention to how they are used as well their strengths and weakness. 2.Compare and contrast the multiplexing techniques CDMA and FDMA in the area of wireless networking? Answers: 1.Different types of Antennas are: Horn Antennas A horn antenna is also called microwave horn antenna. It is used in many applications for microwaves where level of reasonable directives is needed. There are different types of horn antennas available including conical horn, pyramid horn antenna and the corrugated horn antenna. The antenna is used in the reception and transmission of RF microwave signal and it is usually used in conjunction with waveguide feeds (Mizoguchi et al ., 2016). A horn antenna is a form of antenna that consist mainly flared waveguide which is in the shape of a horn. It has that effect that enables a transition between the free space and the wave guide and it also directs wave in a beam. Strengths The following are the strength of the antenna. Impedance matching is good. Greater directivity. Standing waves are avoided. Small minor lobes are formed Narrow beam width (Ekti et al., 2016) Weakness The following are the weakness of the antenna. Flare angle and length of the flare should not be very small Designing of the flare angle, decides the directivity. Yagi Uda Antenna The yagi uda antenna is the most commonly used antenna for TV reception over the last few decades. This type of antenna is the easiest to use and popular antenna with a good performance. This type of antenna is famous for its directivity and high gain. The frequency range in which the antenna works is around 30 MHz to 3GHz which belong to the UHF and VHF bands ok frequency. Strengths The following are the strength of the antenna. High directives is achieved Easy of handling and maintenance Less amount of power is needed. Broader coverage of frequency High gain is achieved. Weakness The following are the weakness of the antenna. This type of antenna is prone to atmospheric effects.This type of antenna is prone to noise. Helical Antenna Helical antenna is an example of wire antenna as it forms the shape of a helix. The operation frequency of the helical antenna is around 30 MHz to 3 GHz. This antenna works in the UHF and VHF ranges. It is one of the simplest antennas which provide polarized waves circularly (Wong et al.,2017). This type of antenna is usually used in extra terrestrial communication which involves satellite relays etc Strengths The following are the strength of the antenna. Simple design Wider bandwidth Highest directivity Can be used at HF and VHF bands also. Circular polarization can be achieved (Skinner, 2016). Weakness The following are the weakness of the antenna. The antenna size is large so it requires more space. Efficiency decreases with the number of turns. Future prospective The helical antenna would be a dominant player in the near future because of its mode of operation. There are two modes of operation Normal or perpendicular mode of radiation In this mode of radiation, the radiation field of the helix is normal. The radiated waves are polarized circularly. This is obtained if the dimension of the helix is small when compared to wavelength. Axial or beam mode of operation In this mode of radiation, the field of radiation is in the end- fire direction along the helical axis and the wave is circular or circularly polarized. The radiation is broad and the directional along the beam axis producing minor lobes at oblique angles (Skinner, 2016). 2.Compare and contrast the multiplexing techniques CDMA and FDMA Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) is a method access normally used for 3G radio communication and some other technology. The technicality of CDMA technology has given significant advantages over other parallel technologies which are in term of spectrum efficiency and overall performance (Rogers, Richard Noortje, 2016). Frequency Division Multiple Access (FDMA) is one of the most common analog multiple access methods .the bandwidth is divided into channel of equal bandwidth as a result of which each conversation is carried on a different frequency In code division multiple accesses each user is assigned a different pseudorandom binary sequence that modulates the carrier, with respect to the waveform it is spreading across the spectrum and gives each user a unique code pattern. With frequency division multiple access different signals are assigned to the frequency channel. A frequency is a channel. Frequency is mainly a basic technology in the analog advanced mobile phone system (AMPS) (Rogers, Richard Noortje, 2016). In FDMA each channel can be assigned to only one user at each time. FDMA can also be used in Total access Communication system. The broad difference between CDMA and FDMA are as follows: CDMA (code division multiple access) Every narrow signal is multiplied by wideband spreading signal usually known as codeword. Only the desired codeword is detected by the receiver rest appear as a noise. Every user has a different pseudo-code which is orthogonal to others Same frequency is used by every user and simultaneous transmission occurs It is mandatory for the receiver to know about the transmitters codeword FDMA (Frequency Division multiple access) Bandwidth of channel is relatively narrow which is known as narrow band system Tight filtering is needed in order to minimize interference Little or no equalization for spreading symbol is needed. Bandwidth of the channel is not in use. Analog links are suitable for FDMA (Etzkowitz, 2016). References Mizoguchi, F., Yamauchi, T., Ishihara, Y., Ishikawa, K. (2016).

Mr. Clemens was a good friend of mine, thus his death greatly affected me. During his lifetime he confided with me some thoughts, which I would share with you right now, in the hope of gaining from you a better analysis of his personal conflicts. First of all, let me focus on your theory of the unconscious. On the one hand, you said in one lecture that this presents all thoughts, experiences and emotions that we are unaware of. They are either difficult or too painful to bear, that is why people have a tendency to deny or repress them. On the other hand, the conscious mind presents ones thoughts that the person is fully aware of. Relating this with Clemenss life, I remember him telling me about his popularity as a democrat as evident in his writings against racism and his position as the Vice-President of the American Anti-Imperialist League, which he held for nine years. He did his part as a good citizen, and displayed a conscious mind that strongly opposed racial discrimination and bureaucracy. However, in his mind resided a racist upbringing, as his father had a slave, while one of his uncles had several slaves. In addition, in 1860, Clemens voted for a presidential candidate who was pro-slavery, and served in the Confeder ate Army. These only show that while Clemens befriended other cultures, he could be doing this out of a guilty past, which haunted him. To hide this guilt, Clemens established the friendship no one would forget, between a black boy and a white one, in his novel, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. While his conscious mind directed him to write humor in his novels, his unconscious mind still called out to state the inner recesses of his being. For instance, in the novel, The Prince and the Pauper, we see the great humor in the confusion the two boys bring others. However, the humor is replaced with melancholy as the prince was abused physically by the villain. The contradictory attitude in Clemens also makes up the opposition between his conscious and unconscious mind. This could be explained by the hardships he suffered during his childhood, from his stern father, and the deaths of his siblings. Although Clemens tried to repress these realities, always showing the brighter side of him, he could not conceal the unconscious mind that had to deal with the losses he hadboth from his original family and his three children who died before they reached twenties. Such great bereavements could have led Clemens towards repression. As you explained, repression is ones involuntary removal of a threatening or painful past from ones consciousness. By trying to forget his past, however, those painful experiences were made evident in Clemens writings. Even so, the experiences he had helped in making him a well-loved and famous writer. Aside from repression of his childhood memories, I also figure out from Clemenss own confession that he turned to denial. Again, taking from you, Clemens tried to distort reality by denying the sufferings he dealt with in the past. Facing realities like death of a loved one could lead a person to a mournful period, which could come to an end. In Clemens, we unbelievably see an inpidual dealing with too many losses but still maintaining poise and humor. Furthermore, Clemens also seemingly submitted to regression. The use of young characters in his novels tells us this truth. Due to the way he viewed his father (which will be explained later), Clemens regressed by looking at the brighter side of life in the eyes of young boys like Huckleberry Finn. Although Clemens was close to his mother, I do not see this as a way to explain Oedipal complex. With all due respect, Mr. Freud, allow me to elucidate my point in relation to my friends personality. Sifted of confidence, I believe that your concept of Oedipal complex is too assuming and needs further proofs. For instance, I believe that more than competing with his father for his mothers love, Clemens simply hated his father for what the old man did. Clemens told me that his father worked as a shopkeeper and land speculator. During his childhood, he stumbled upon a bloody corpse of a murdered man whose body was dragged into his father's office. This experience disturbed Clemens as a young boy, and affected the way he looked at his father. He could have resented him for it, and resorted to leaning more towards the affection of his mother who was more considerate. As such, his fathers own wrongdoings, and not the Oedipal complex, which you proposed to be innate, caused Clemens to develop resentment towards his father. In summary, I would like to congratulate you for the great contribution you have made in the field of psychology, my own field of work. Your theories certainly help us define personality traits and disorders. Similarly, they assist us in making sense of our clients past to explain present tendencies. In particular, your theories of the conscious and the unconscious, and defense mechanisms are very well acclaimed. I am concluding this letter with the hope that you could send me a reply regarding how you see my friends life, with particular attention to proofs regarding Oedipal complex. Once again, thank you, Mr, Freud! Yours truly, John Reynolds Psychologist References Hergenhahn, B. R., & Olson., M. H. (2007). An introduction to theories of personality. 7 th Ed.

Moral Cowerdice

Moral Cowerdice Moral cowardice Humans are natural followers, following others through right and wrong. The cause of this natural human characteristic is Moral cowardice.
