Energy and Magnetics - Let There Be Light (Part 1)


Thursday, March 31, 2011

This opening point is important to grasp. Generally, it is accepted that a photon cannot perform work, because it has no mass. Photons, as a quantum object, exhibit both wave-like and particle-like properties. It is also the force carrier for the electromagnetic force.

We all know now, and it's an accepted fact that space is not empty. The active universal-environment is filled with numerous virtual particles. It is an accepted fact that the environment of space is no longer considered inert. The electron, a tangible object, is one of the particles that exists and interacts in this medium. As an electron moves through space, it is never at rest. The continued propagation of the electromagnetic waves are constant. A photon exists entirely as a self-propagating group of electromagnetic fields. The photon is never at rest. It cannot exist at rest, and so has no "mass" or any other property at rest. Yet a photon does have "effective" mass, because the mass-energy relationship still holds true. My point is: a photon could perform work.

Additionally, photons are affected by gravitational fields, and the acceleration they experience can be computed as the change in energy as they move through a gravitational field. There's undeniable evidence of photons' mass through the mass-energy relationship existing. They simply have no resting mass. This electromagnetic radiation produced, due to the acceleration of electric charges, has numerous identities and explained forms. It has been identified as a photon, electromagnetic radiation, cosmic rays, radio waves, infrared radiation, microwaves, ultra-violet radiation, and light. They all refer to the same thing. The genuine difference is related only to the frequency of the radiation. All of these forms, and more refer to the very same parcel of energy.

There exists only one single fundamental phenomenon. A magnetic field produced by an accelerated charge, processing all the characteristics of energy; polarization, amplitude, frequency; all represent electromagnetic radiation. It makes no sense for us to assume that the nature of light changes due to a change in the method used to identify its existence.

Science continues to be challenged as we all attempt to fully grasp the reality and potential of permanent and electro-magnetics. There remains more to learn about magnetism than one can imagine, or yet perhaps comprehend. Both Faraday and Tesla envisioned numerous devices and gave us the guidelines for achieving virtually continuous motion. It was established, even then, that the work required to move the magnetic fields about a system to harness energy would have to be eliminated. Magnetic back-drag and magnetic pole lock-up would also have to be eliminated.

The Exchange Forces; Strong and Weak, Gravitational Interactions, Magnetic and other forces conveyed through space are obviously caused and exist in an environment acting according to Laws. Granted, there is chaos, yet there is also order. Empty space is not so void of physical properties, this vacuum is quite active. Quantum Electrodynamics clearly tells us that. The propagation of electromagnetic fields within the very active universal-environment extends everywhere and is seemingly endless. The galactic masses contain electric charges, electrons and protons exist in all atoms.

When these charges move, or if the electrons are accelerated, magnetic moments then induce back electric charges, which again induce a second generation in alternating phases per Lenz law, and so on. These alternating phases of induction, plus the difference of angles, following the rule of current flow between the two energies would cause everything to spin and spiral. This is how a galactic spiral is initially formed. Can you deny the existence or these actions?

I suspect that spatial energy can be extracted with and through magnetic devices. This force can be used without the associated problematic pole lock-up or magnetic back-drag experienced by current conventional means. The coefficient-of-performance in excess of one (COP>1), as it's currently represented is possible. This is not to imply that it is exceeded, it is not.

The magnetic photon does possess effective-mass and energy. Symmetry can be broken, replaced with anisotropy and vector zero can be overcome. Work can be performed without the violation of Thermodynamic Laws. However, the second Law of Thermodynamics has known and accepted violations where negative entropy is produced temporarily, including the statistical fluctuations of an equilibrium many-particle system. Nor is it in violation of the Energy Conservation Law, the current assumption is simply incorrect.

The virtual equal and opposite actions can be nullified or modified. Within the realm of physics definitions; useful work can be performed such as displacement of a rotor in respect to a stator, and to produce unidirectional propelling forces. The structure of electrons, protons, and atoms are a continuously rotating system at the very basic level of the Universe. The active universal-environment is achieved, since the ratio of energy out, versus energy input has already exceeded unity. Please join us, for Part 2, coming soon.

Open and Distance Learning Education - Access to Higher Education in Developing Countries


Wednesday, March 30, 2011

A common challenge for developing countries or economies is the inadequate access to Higher education needed for human capital development. For instance in Nigeria university sub-sector over 1.1 million candidates with about 75% of them having the minimum academic requirements, sit for the nationally organized Universities Matriculation examination annually, whereas the existing universities in Nigeria can only absorb about 220,000 new entrants. You can imagine the shortfall and the backlog of candidates that will be thrown into the education market without opportunities of furthering their career until the following year.

In fact this education crisis prompted the government to bridge this yawning gap between demand and supply, the Nigerian government has over the years, taken a number of steps, the most significant being between 1999 and 2007. The government, realizing that she could not satisfy the educational requirements of the nation, invited the Private Sector to participate in the provision of university education. Consequently, between 1999 and 2007, thirty-four private universities were licensed by government with 15 of them established in 2005 alone. The number of private universities has increased to 41 in 2009.

With these measures, the disequilibrium between demand and supply in tertiary education persists, as the private universities put together account for just 5 % of total student enrollment in the Nigerian University System with the 27 Federal universities accounting for about 70% of total student enrollment. Concerted efforts has been put together between 2008 till the time of writing this article to engaged cross-border education in collaboration with open and distance learning. The university commission then identified six dual mode universities and on single mode university for this project.

This approach was tackled with a series of workshops on electronic teaching that focuses on using the electronic media and devices with the internet to teach large classes. This pioneers lecturers selected from these universities will now train their colleagues how to lecture online. This project when successful is to prepare these six distance learning institutions to be able to enroll 50,000 students each and the single mode to be able to enroll 100,000 students.

The training focus majorly on some selected mode of delivering education contents which employ asynchronous and synchronous technologies as medium in reaching the students. Most technologies use in these online course/project falls under these categories.

Synchronous technologies with the use of Skpe and a messaging tool

  • Web-based VoIP
  • Telephone
  • Videoconferencing
  • Web conferencing

Asynchronous technologies

  • E-mail
  • Message boards/forums
  • Print materials
  • Videocassette/DVD

The workshop/course deployment employs computer and internet tools for contents access with delivery and may be daubed as a "blended" approach, with content available electronically and remotely. The participant were taught how to redesign their course to suit the distance learner and the online student. A study guide template and an online course design template for various fields of studies were introduced for the participants to adapted to suit the uniqueness of their student's learning peculiarities.

Start or upgrade your career online today. You will find these tools very useful in computer training and online learning. I vote this online resource as one of the best E-Learning Products for both beginners and advanced internet users.

Getting Into College - What Do College Admissions Offices Expect To See?


Tuesday, March 29, 2011

There is no specific formula for getting into college. You probably have thought about going to college for a while and maybe have even done some thinking about where you would like to go. Now it is time to begin some serious college planning and take the necessary steps to get the college admissions process rolling. What should you do first?

1. Do a thorough college search. Begin by considering what you are looking for in a college experience and identifying schools that meet this criteria. Keep your options open and do not limit your college choices. After compiling a list, start to look more specifically at the most important qualities you consider to be necessary. This will help your narrow down your college choices to a list of seven or eight schools.

2. Go to each college website and fill out the questionnaire for prospective students. This will enable you to receive campus highlights, scholarship information, and newsletters that colleges feel will be helpful to you during the college planning process. By filling out the questionnaire you are showing an interest in a school. This will help you with getting into college.

3. Go to the common application website to see which schools will accept that application. Make a list with their deadlines for early action, early decision and regular decision. For schools that do not participate on the common application, go to the individual website for this information.

4. Begin to brainstorm topics for an essay or personal statement that you will need to submit for almost every application. Consider qualities about yourself that a college might find interesting to learn about you. What can you tell a school that will distinguish you from other college applicants? A strong essay can often help students with getting into college.

5. Start the common application or one for another school and fill in as much information as you can. All college applications will be done online, unless otherwise requested. Try to do one application at a time, rather than parts of many as this tends to get confusing. Check to see if there are additional essays or supplemental information that may be required.

6. Request two recommendations from teachers who have had you in class and who you believe can write a strong letter to support your application. Talk with each about what you feel is important to include that they may not know.

7. Make sure you have taken the SAT or ACT and consider what you can do to improve your scores if you are not satisfied with the ones you have. Consider some test prep before the next test. Seniors can take any test through those given in December.

To find out more about getting into college, go to http://collegedirection.org and sign up to receive the College Direction free monthly newsletter. Susie Watts is an educational consultant and college planner and the founder of College Direction. She helps students with choosing a college, applications and essays, college visits, and provides college assistance throughout the college admissions process. She is also a test prep coach for the PSAT, SAT and ACT.

Scholarships For Graduate Students


Monday, March 28, 2011

Scholarships for graduate students will enable you to get education without paying. To get a scholarship, you will need to look into the different options. There are both foreign and local ones. You should be able to choose what you want and what you can easily get.

You can get the right connection by associating yourself with the right persons. You have to look for the right contacts. You will get the details in the internet as well as the ads in the magazines. If you belong to a given club in the church or even at school, get involved in the interactive sessions.

Higher Degree = Higher Income


Sunday, March 27, 2011

You've always heard it. People who go to college earn more money. But is that true? It turns out that it is. The basic premise, those with degrees will make more money over their lifetime than those without a higher education or advanced degree.

Compare a high school graduate to a college graduate. A high school graduate will earn an average of about $1.2 million over their lifetime. A college graduate can expect an average of about $2.1 million. A graduate with a masters degree can expect to earn about $2.5 million and if you want even more money or proof, a person earning their PhD will earn on average $3.4 million. These figures are based on a Census Bureau report titled THE BIG PAYOFF.

Let's look a little deeper at these numbers. A high school drop out will make about $18,900 a year but a high school graduate will make about $25,900. However a college graduate can expect to make, again, on average, about $45,000 while doctors, dentists, lawyers and other with professional degrees can expect about $99,300. So the gap between a high school drop out and a professional degree earner is approximately $80,000 every single year! What a difference!

What if your formal education stopped at high school graduation? Don't worry. There's still time. Getting that degree is not easy but it has become easier. We aren't talking diploma mills. It will require studying, doing homework and proving that you have mastered the material by passing tests. Think you don't have time for college? There are new ways to go to school. Online college degree programs are designed specifically for working adults. You can take classes and earn your diploma or degree from anywhere you have access to a computer and the internet. You can study during the hours that fit your schedule and earn your degree at your own pace.

Could this plan work for you? First and foremost what are your goals and plans? You need to answer that first. Then once you know where you want to go you need to find an online college that will help you get there. Make sure you talk to friends and family and see if anyone you know has gone to school online. A recommendation from a successful graduate is a good place to start. Double check that the school you're considering is an accredited institution and that you'll be able to transfer the units you earn should you decide to.

You laid out a formidable goal for yourself and selected an online school to help your reach that goal. What about tuition and books? You may already have discovered the answer while you were researching potential schools. There should be a Financial Aid department at your chosen school. They can help you put together a plan to finance your degree. Don't allow the word AID to get in your way. It's not about handouts. There are financial aid advisors who are well versed in how to pay for higher education through loans, scholarships, grants and cash payments. Make sure you ask lots of questions and feel comfortable with your Financial Aid advisor because they are as important to your success and an Academic Advisor.

Obtaining a higher income is possible through obtaining a higher degree, but first you must do your homework about what you want, the degree you wish to obtain, how much it will cost and what you can expect in Financial Aid. Once you have that mastered you will be on your way to completing the homework need to obtain your degree. Study your options and study hard!

If you're ready to pursue your education, start with an accredited online education. You're sure to find the online university that's right for you.

6 Tips to Score Better in Reasoning Test In Online CAT 2010


Saturday, March 26, 2011

Reasoning is an important and one of the most difficult sections of the Common Admission Test. Basically you are given a passage or a paragraph that you need to read carefully and answer questions associated with it by applying your logic. Most of the questions are prepared with diverse conditions and in order to solve these questions you are required to employ the 'if-then' tactics. You should thoroughly read the entire given passage and use the most suitable hint to answer the questions. You must keep these 7 tips in mind in order to score well in reasoning test-

a. Avoid assumptions - You should never make assumptions and utilize an info that the question is unable to provide. Only consider the options that are available in the paragraph. The idea is not to judge your knowledge of subject but to see what logic and how intelligently you apply your reassign aptitude to solve the questions. Ensure that you read all the options before answering the problem.

b. Read carefully - Be focused and pay heed to all the words when you are reading the paragraph. Even a slight negligence can cause trouble and make it difficult for you to understand the matter. Words like some, none or all should be given special attention. Apart from these, other important words like unless, other than or only should also be read carefully as they play a critical role in detailing the facts that can be used by you for answering.

c. Mock Test - One must opt for mock test in order to improve your skills. Ask for mock papers from the training institute where you are enrolled or take it from your senior or tutor. The only way to prepare well for this section is to practice more and more.

d. Key words and phrases - The important keywords and phrases that you cannot afford to ignore are 'only' and 'if and only if' as they specify the conditions of the problem. For instance- the person can cross the bridge if and only if he has a car. This specifies that he must have a car to cross the bridge. Now on the contrary, if the sentence says that a person can cross the bridge using a vehicle then there can be many options to it.

e. Draw diagrams - The level of difficulty varies and the questions that you come across are both easy and difficult. Therefore if you come across a tough problem it is wise to draw diagrams or notes to understand the problem well as this will assist you to answer appropriately.

f. Time Management - When you are preparing for you CAT exams, bear in mind that you have a time limit and since reasoning takes a lot of time you must time yourself while doing your preparation. You must read the instruction and information given in the passage carefully so that you can understand the question without taking much time. Do not rush as if you even a miss a prefix like dis- or non- it can be difficult for you.

Instant Immersion Spanish - A Review of Their Audio CD Based Spanish Learning Product


Friday, March 25, 2011

Instant Immersion Spanish (IIS) products are everywhere. Yes, you read that right, I wrote 'products' plural. The company that produces it, sells it in various versions and editions. This can make it confusing when deciding which product to purchase. Some of their products actually overlap, so if you're not careful, you might wind up re-purchasing part of a product that you've already purchased before.

The product that I purchased was simply called "Instant Immersion Spanish" and did not have any indicator to differentiate it from any of the other similarly named products. However, based upon the description on the package, I knew that I was getting eight audio CDs. These eight audio CDs are also the same eight audio CDs that are bundled into a variety of their other Spanish learning packages. So since I purchased this product with the eight audio CDs, if I purchase another one of their products, I will very likely wind up getting the eight audio CDs again, and thereby re-purchasing something that I've already bought.

Despite the fact that Instant Immersion Spanish has gotten some pretty negative reviews on Amazon, I thought it was usable, and did indeed get some use out of my eight audio CDs. My problem came up when I thought I might purchase more items in their product line and found myself trying to make my way through the confusing maze of products they have put out. It was very difficult to figure out what was next. They've got so many versions and editions of the product. For example, they've got Deluxe, Platinum, Level 1, Level 2, Level 3, Levels 1 through 3 bundled together, Version 2.0, Version 3.0, Deluxe 2.0, Advanced, and Deluxe Edition Workbook among others. As you can see, their products can be hard to navigate.

Regarding what kind of training materials are included with Instant Immersion Spanish, it definitely varies. The product I purchased had CDs only. The more comprehensive products contain DVDs, audio CDs, CD-ROMs, computer based training, and video games. Depending on which product you buy, you may or may not get a workbook with it.

If you decide you want to purchase one of these similarly named products, then I recommend that you purchase it from a store where you can actually read the box to determine exactly what you are getting. Or, if you prefer to purchase online, you need to buy from a seller that has very detailed descriptions of the products.

Instant Immersion Spanish is one of the most readily available Spanish language programs available today. If you are looking for a moderately priced product, and don't care to wait for delivery, you should be able to find Instant Immersion Spanish at your local department store.

Why Should I Spend Money on Educational Products?


Thursday, March 24, 2011

Some of the most successful people in the world invest a small truckload of money on their education. Why? In this article we will explore these reasons. I find that when people reach a level of success, they spend money on their education. Successful people spend more money on education and products that help them see other view points because they understand their true value.

I have found this to be true in all fields. Some of my most successful coaching clients and marketing clients invest in everything that they can get their hands on. These people are successful and may already know ninety eight percent of what I teach but they still invest in the products and services.

Why would the continue to spend money when the already know 98% of what is being taught? Simple, they want to know the other two percent of what they don't know and they know the stuff works and makes them more money and solves their problems. These same successful people understand that just one or two more ideas will increase their business. Sometimes just one idea can make a few thousand dollars more for the company and it's owner.

I don't want you to feel like I am giving you a sales pitch, I am not. That was not my reason for telling you this. The reason I offer it here is simple, when you invest in your business from a financial standpoint or a marketing standpoint or a self-help standpoint - you will get better results.

There is an old saying and it belonged to the late Jim Rohn: "Work harder on yourself than you do on your job." I feel his reason for this is simple, you can go from job to job and that might change but knowledge can never be taken away from you. Someone can fire you tomorrow or you could get out of your business or whatever...but with your education and knowledge, that can never be taken away from you.

I have to be honest and this is from a personal standpoint, since I have started to invest more and more into my education - both time to study and books, ebooks, courses, websites and the likes...learning about my profession and business - my business and income has grown more than I thought it ever would. So I do not care if it is time or money you invest - or both...but invest somehow in yourself and you will be amazed with the results.

Some of the most successful people in the world invest a small truckload of money on their education. Why? In this article we will explore these reasons. I find that when people reach a level of success, they spend money on their education. Successful people spend more money on education and products that help them see other view points because they understand their true value.

I have found this to be true in all fields. Some of my most successful coaching clients and marketing clients invest in everything that they can get their hands on. These people are successful and may already know ninety eight percent of what I teach but they still invest in the products and services.

Why would the continue to spend money when the already know 98% of what is being taught? Simple, they want to know the other two percent of what they don't know and they know the stuff works and makes them more money and solves their problems. These same successful people understand that just one or two more ideas will increase their business. Sometimes just one idea can make a few thousand dollars more for the company and it's owner.

I don't want you to feel like I am giving you a sales pitch, I am not. That was not my reason for telling you this. The reason I offer it here is simple, when you invest in your business from a financial standpoint or a marketing standpoint or a self-help standpoint - you will get better results.

There is an old saying and it belonged to the late Jim Rohn: "Work harder on yourself than you do on your job." I feel his reason for this is simple, you can go from job to job and that might change but knowledge can never be taken away from you. Someone can fire you tomorrow or you could get out of your business or whatever...but with your education and knowledge, that can never be taken away from you.

I have to be honest and this is from a personal standpoint, since I have started to invest more and more into my education - both time to study and books, ebooks, courses, websites and the likes...learning about my profession and business - my business and income has grown more than I thought it ever would. So I do not care if it is time or money you invest - or both...but invest somehow in yourself and you will be amazed with the results.

Saturday, March 19, 2011

Most of Western society views the issue of women in the workforce and women's rights as a non-issue. It has been tackled in the past and women, in general, are treated with equal respect as with a man. That is true; at least in western and more developed countries. In other parts of the world that still abide by patriarchal and oppressive laws of society; women are still treated like properties, incubators and nannies for the babies. Their full potential to become productive members of society is not fully realized because of the lack of education and the pressures of tradition.

In a recent TED (Technology Entertainment Design) Global Talk, Sheryl WuDunn, author of "Half the Sky", spoke about the state of women in the world. She cited Amartya Sen, Nobel Peace Prize winner in Economics; in her essay featured on The New York Review of Books, she wrote "More than 100 million women are missing." In the developed world, women outnumber men because women naturally live longer but in parts of the world that still lives in the dark ages, men outnumber women.

Bill Gates gave a talk in Saudi Arabia and in the question and answer segment, a man raised his hand and asked Gates what his opinion was about Saudi Arabia's goal of being one of the top ten advanced countries in terms of technology. Gates looked at his audience. While there were women who were seated in one segregated side of the room, majority were males. Gates answered, "Well, if you're not fully utilizing half the talent in the country, you're not going to get too close to the Top 10." Needless to say, the small contingent of women erupted in applause.

While this clearly is a moral issue, it is also a practical issue. Women are more or less half of the population. If men are the only ones allowed to work, countries, at best, would only progress to half of its potential. Women can be solutions to improving lives of the family and therefore, society. Education, opportunity, and support are needed to elevate not only the lives of oppressed women but also their kin.

Cost effective training solutions like elearning or learning online is just one way to develop a woman's potential. The flexibility of schedule and relatively low cost of such a program would give a woman the opportunity to learn through virtual learning environment without having to leave her family or home.

There are of course, challenges that this kind of project will have to face:

Infrastructure. In developing countries, there are gaps in communications infrastructure. Technology is improving to make it possible for previously unconnected rural villages to communicate with the rest of civilization but there are still large gaps that have to be filled by government funding since private companies would hardly start an initiative if there is no profit in it for them. Free access to computers will also be a problem unless government or NGOs provide public computer laboratories that women and girls can use.

Government Support. Laws that oppress women needs to change. Sharia Law is just one example where women are restricted to the house. Allowing women to go to school and work means they can contribute financially to the household, giving them a greater sense of purpose and control over their lives.

Societal Support. A lot of women face a vicious cycle of oppression due to tradition and culture. It is extremely hard to change the minds of the masses when they have been used to old ways and customs. Overcoming societal pressure would only be achieved once the women have gone on to succeed in their endeavors proving to themselves and their peers that women are just as good as men.

Vocational courses, high school curriculum, or even primary school curriculum can be delivered through cost effective training solutions. In educating women, developing countries will increase their workforce and deliver their society from the dark ages.

English Grammar Tips - When to Use


Thursday, March 17, 2011

Good writers and speakers use words carefully. They weigh the words as it were, and use them to best effects.

Words that seem to have the same meaning are the trickiest lot to use correctly. There are shades of difference in the meaning, and these may call for exercising discretion before using them. The usage depends on context, register and effect.

Take for example, the words use and utilize. Do not assume that there are only two words in English to convey the meaning that 'you are doing something with the help of something to get some desired results'--the meaning being use.

Besides use and utilize, we have employ, make use of something, exercise, resort to, apply and exploit.

There is no difference in meaning between Use and Utilize. You use use in everyday English while you use utilize in formal contexts such as in reports, research, or speaking at a formal gathering.

The Senator said that the government was utilizing the funds for a good cause.

He said he had used bad language and said sorry.

I want to use the restroom.

Use your head to get the answer.

When you use what is available to you, you make use of it. The staff made use of all the old stock, before opening the case of the new one.

When you use a method or skill, you employ them. The doctor employed state of the art technology for the surgery. The government employed everything they could, to check the insurgents.

We can use exploit with the meaning use. However, this word has negative connotation, and you must be careful when you use this word. Exploit means making full and effective use of something so that you have advantage over a situation or an opponent.

She exploited his sentimental love for her, and made him buy expensive gifts.

Many multinational companies exploit cheap labor in the third world countries.

When you use an idea or method, knowledge or skill, you use the word apply to speak about the use.

She applied her knowledge of transactional analysis at the counseling sessions.

They wanted to apply kaizen at the weekly meeting they held.

Finally we come to the phrase resort to. When you use violence, coercion, subterfuge or cunning to get what you want, you resort to them. They resorted to violence to control the crowd that was now turning a mob.

Do you now see how many words we have with the meaning use, and how the words differ in the way they are used?

Some Common Mistakes Made by International Student Applying for Grants


Monday, March 14, 2011

International student grants are in abundance to be found. When you apply for the grant, you must keep in mind certain things. There are few mistakes that are very commonly made by the applicants. You should keep in mind that you cannot afford to make these mistakes.

Mistakes that you cannot afford to make when you apply are

• To forget to include your name or address. You would be surprised to find out the number of students who make this mistake of not writing their name or address when they are filling their application form.

• You should not make the mistake of submitting an incomplete application. Before submitting the application make sure that you have checked and double checked the application form and that the required references, photos, transcripts and essays are all in their places.

• When you are called for the interview, you cannot afford to be rude to the judges. To behave in a way that the judges would be in Hades if they do not select you will put you in trouble.

• Your application should not be dirty. Remember that your application would be speaking on behalf of you. It would be your extended self to the granters before they come and meet you. So spilling something on top your application or writing on it dirtily does not portray a good self of you.

• You should not apply when you do not meet the minimum requirement that is necessary for the grant. If they want 3.0 GPA and you have managed to score 1.3 GPA then you would just be wasting your time with the application.

• You should not send a post due. This portrays a negative impact about you which as an applicant you should avoid.

• You should always see to it that you have put the relevant documents. Inappropriate documentation is common with the applicants and this brings your dream of getting grant to an immediate end.

• You should not use fancy or hard-to-read script typefaces on your essay. You should always remember that the people sitting there would give you a grant and they must assess the applicant before that. Thus you must not do anything that would make your assessment difficult.

If you have any questions or for more information please visit our website international student grants. Partners and Profits has been designed to help individuals learn what types are available for them to apply for and also how to get approved for these grants.

Books a CAT Aspirant Needs to Read - Tips For Online CAT 2010


Saturday, March 12, 2011

Every year, the Common Admission Test or CAT is held country wide for admissions into various MBA programmes offered by the business schools. CAT happens to be one of the toughest exams in India, with a mere 1% of candidates finally making to the reputed b-schools. Hence it is very important to study hard and read the best of CAT books to get good marks in the exam.

As you all know, the CAT exam is divided into three main sections: Quantitative Ability, Logical Reasoning & Data Interpretation and Verbal Ability. Depending on these three sections, I have provided the names of 3 books a CAT aspirant needs to read.

For Quantitative Ability, you need to practice a lot of class 10 and 12 level mathematics. The best books to consult are OP Sinhal's ICSE Maths Text Book and Quantitative aptitude by RS Aggarwal. Aggarwal's book is also available online. CAT aspirants can also purchase the NCERT books of standards 9th to 12th and solve the problems from there. Since most of the students have fear for mathematics, practicing 10 and 12 levels of arithmetic, algebra, will help them to score high marks in the exam. To give up some extra boost to your CAT preparations, you can always consult Magical Book on Quicker Maths by M. Tyra.

For Logical Reasoning and Data Interpretation, the best of books include, Data Interpretation and Logical Reasoning for the CAT by Arun Sharma. The book published by Tata McGraw-Hill offers a simple and enjoyable reading to all CAT aspirants. The book very clearly brings out the answer to the key question that many of you guys have in your mind. Many of the logical reasoning books can also be ordered online.

For understanding Verbal Ability, you can buy Wren and Marten. To practice grammar all the more, that is the use of nouns, idioms and phrases, you can purchase Thompson and Martinet's "A Practical English Grammar".

English usage and vocabulary can be further sharpened by reading "Word Power Made Easy" by Norman Lewis. Inside the book you will find about 50 exercises for solving purposes. While reading, if you don't get the meaning of some words, always consult an English dictionary as that of Oxford to understand the word.

The book named "How to Prepare for the Verbal Ability and Reading Comprehension for the CAT" by Arun Sharma and Meenakshi Upadhyay will also greatly help the CAT aspirants to take preparations for the coming exam.

According to CAT experts, it is best for the students to read various newspapers and English magazines apart from studying the above must read books, to improve English language skills.

MBA aspirants can also go through some of the following books to get an idea on diverse topics in Management.

• Marketing Management: Knowledge and Skills - Peter and Donnelly
• Financial Management - Khan & Jain
• Mathematics for Business Studies - Dr. J. K. Thukral

Why Bother Having Art in the School Curriculum?


Friday, March 11, 2011

As teachers, students and schools become so jam-packed with activities intended to produce socially contributing, life long learners that many aspects of the school experience become pushed aside. Parents and school boards continually pressure teachers to give students knowledge and skills which will benefit them after primary school. Obviously, this has good intentions behind it.

However, when so much focus is placed on the language arts, science and mathematics portions of the school day, other, seemingly unimportant subjects may be given less focus, or abandoned altogether. A prime example of this is art education. Art has become a small section of the school day, which is often provided to students only if they need to 'busy' themselves or as a reward for completing the more 'beneficial' subjects. I believe that by undermining the importance of art in school, students and teachers alike are missing out on many opportunities for meaningful development. In her article "Art Really Teaches", Dr. Violet Robinson discusses how art can be helpful and effective in the areas of personal development, social development, physical development and language development. I agree that art holds many opportunities to explore these areas with, and within our students.

Although school professes to be a place where students learn about the subject matter within the curriculum, it is easily seen that the most meaningful learning that occurs is on a much deeper level. Personal development, when properly and successfully encouraged, enables students to achieve a sense of positive self-concept, high self-esteem and high self-efficacy. Art as a form of personal expression and creativity can greatly benefit students in their search for identity. Through the creation of concrete objects and pictures, storytelling and emotional expression, students are given an avenue where they may take responsibility for their work, and where they can, hopefully, create with a sense of achievement and without judgment.

Along with personal development, schools are a place where students experience social development, often to an extent greater than any other place in their lives. Art can foster positive social development through group projects, which allow for a sense of group accomplishment and cooperation, and the sharing of personal stories and ideas. Art offers a way of communication, which, on a very basic level, is interdisciplinary and multilingual. This may offer students from various backgrounds the opportunity to share and experience together, without language barriers. The creation of art and the expression it encourages may serve to develop the forms of language other than spoken and written form. Art provides a means of communication which may or may not include written and spoken language. This makes it inclusive and, hopefully, accessible to people of all levels of development and all cultures, something which cannot be said for many subjects.

As art may take almost unlimited forms, it can often serve to increase and aid physical development in students and teachers alike. For example, sculpture may take active form, expression can be found in dance and movement and dexterity, rhythm and coordination can all be found in various art forms.

It has been documented that the gravitation towards art tends to diminish throughout the school years. This may be due to lack of instruction of basic ability, the tendency of students to think that art is best left to those with natural ability, and, as mentioned earlier, the view of art as an unimportant part of the curriculum. As mathematics has been considered 'the great equalizer' among students, I believe art is 'the great unifier'. Art, when properly introduced, taught and encouraged, holds the potential to give students a lifelong avenue for expression, development and learning.

As teachers, students and schools become so jam-packed with activities intended to produce socially contributing, life long learners that many aspects of the school experience become pushed aside. Parents and school boards continually pressure teachers to give students knowledge and skills which will benefit them after primary school. Obviously, this has good intentions behind it.

Although school professes to be a place where students learn about the subject matter within the curriculum, it is easily seen that the most meaningful learning that occurs is on a much deeper level. Personal development, when properly and successfully encouraged, enables students to achieve a sense of positive self-concept, high self-esteem and high self-efficacy. Art as a form of personal expression and creativity can greatly benefit students in their search for identity. Through the creation of concrete objects and pictures, storytelling and emotional expression, students are given an avenue where they may take responsibility for their work, and where they can, hopefully, create with a sense of achievement and without judgment.

Along with personal development, schools are a place where students experience social development, often to an extent greater than any other place in their lives. Art can foster positive social development through group projects, which allow for a sense of group accomplishment and cooperation, and the sharing of personal stories and ideas. Art offers a way of communication, which, on a very basic level, is interdisciplinary and multilingual. This may offer students from various backgrounds the opportunity to share and experience together, without language barriers. The creation of art and the expression it encourages may serve to develop the forms of language other than spoken and written form. Art provides a means of communication which may or may not include written and spoken language. This makes it inclusive and, hopefully, accessible to people of all levels of development and all cultures, something which cannot be said for many subjects.

As art may take almost unlimited forms, it can often serve to increase and aid physical development in students and teachers alike. For example, sculpture may take active form, expression can be found in dance and movement and dexterity, rhythm and coordination can all be found in various art forms.

It has been documented that the gravitation towards art tends to diminish throughout the school years. This may be due to lack of instruction of basic ability, the tendency of students to think that art is best left to those with natural ability, and, as mentioned earlier, the view of art as an unimportant part of the curriculum. As mathematics has been considered 'the great equalizer' among students, I believe art is 'the great unifier'. Art, when properly introduced, taught and encouraged, holds the potential to give students a lifelong avenue for expression, development and learning.

As teachers, students and schools become so jam-packed with activities intended to produce socially contributing, life long learners that many aspects of the school experience become pushed aside. Parents and school boards continually pressure teachers to give students knowledge and skills which will benefit them after primary school. Obviously, this has good intentions behind it.

However, when so much focus is placed on the language arts, science and mathematics portions of the school day, other, seemingly unimportant subjects may be given less focus, or abandoned altogether. A prime example of this is art education. Art has become a small section of the school day, which is often provided to students only if they need to 'busy' themselves or as a reward for completing the more 'beneficial' subjects. I believe that by undermining the importance of art in school, students and teachers alike are missing out on many opportunities for meaningful development.

College English - The Course That Prepares The Student For An Educated Life


Wednesday, March 9, 2011

Any student can take English Composition. In fact, most of the time it is required that every student to take this course as it is considered to be a general study. Even the students who are studying something other than English are normally required to take this class. It doesn't matter who you are or what you want to study in school, taking this course is an essential step in every student's career.

What is English Composition and why is it important for students to take it? English Composition is a course that consists of writing essays that will help students become familiar with literature and to learn how to write to convey an idea. It is essential for all students as it is a foundation for the rest of their academic career. This is a subject that truly has everyday life applications.

Normally, every student, no matter their major, is required to take a core English class while studying in their field. English Composition is the one that is often taken as it not only offers the student writing skills, but it also gives the student brainstorming and critical thinking skills that can be used in any career. These are all essential skills that everyone will use throughout their life.

What will a student actually learn once the course is completed? After a student completes English Composition, they will have learned all the basic skills in writing, such as how to properly prepare an essay, how to use quotes and how to accurately proofread and edit their work. A student will also learn how to use grammar properly and learn the logistics of all literary components.

While most students have to take this course, some students can be dismissed from this course in certain circumstances. If students who are in high school take honor level courses, that can be considered a college level class.

Therefore, if the student takes a course like this in high school and then takes the exam (usually called the College Level Examination Program) at the end of the semester, they may be excused from taking English Composition. The student will need to pass this particular test (CLEP) in order to not have to take this course.

If this is something that interests the student, they should always check with their teacher and professor, as well as the school they are applying to get into, to make sure they understand what is needed to not have to take English Composition. Most schools have the same requirements, but it is always a smart idea for the student to double check to ensure accuracy.

College English is a course that will help a student achieve the in-demand writing skills that will take them to a rewarding career. Even the students who are not interested in making English their career or field of study can benefit from taking this as a free online college course to learn the core values of the written English language. This will ensure they will have all the basic skills to know how to communicate and write well, as well as be able to think of their toes when needed.

Law School Relationships - Five Ways for Love to Thrive in Law School


Tuesday, March 8, 2011

For many, the beginning of law school signals the end of their current romantic relationship. I've written before that 70% of relationships started before law school end within a year of becoming a 1L. If you are currently in love and considering a legal education, this may be a disturbing statistic and, in fact, I think it should be. It doesn't mean that pursuing a law degree will imperil your relationship; but it does mean that you should be prepared for the challenges that this professional degree will inevitably introduce into your romantic life. How can your law school relationship survive and even thrive?

  1. Start the dialogue now. The best time to start talking about your relationship with your boyfriend or girlfriend is before school starts. Start creating structures in your relationship for articulating needs and addressing conflict. If you already live with unspoken needs and unprocessed anger or hurt in your relationship, a legal education may be the straw that breaks the camels back. So, start practicing now. Make sure you have a system in place in your relationship for checking in and communicating honestly.
  2. Define your needs. Whether you or your boyfriend/girlfriend are in the midst of the admissions process, take time to figure out what you want from the relationship now and when school starts. What makes you feel fulfilled in your relationship? How important is attention and quality time to you? How do you know when you've had enough? If your partner is attending law school, how comfortable are you spending time on your own or with your friends? Being clear on what makes you feel fulfilled, happy and safe in a relationship will help you in structuring your time and communicating your needs to your partner.
  3. Set expectations. To the degree possible, both parties to the relationship should understand each other's long-term romantic plans. Is the goal in your relationship to have a long-term commitment that will extend far beyond school? Or is it too early in your relationship to know for sure? In general, I would caution against answering these questions prematurely; but I raise the issue because long-term plans may make the challenges of law school easier to bear. You or your partner may find law school easier to handle if it is part of a long-term project of growing close and building a life together.
  4. Be unflinchingly honest with yourself and your partner. Law school is a big commitment and the workload doesn't end when you graduate. If you are considering law school, do you have the stamina and motivation to continue to give the right amount of focus to your relationship? If you have doubts about this, start talking about it with your boyfriend or girlfriend now. You could argue that your partner has the right to know about your doubts before you start law school. But, even more importantly, you will be in much better shape in law school and your relationship if you address these issues now, rather than having them come to a head just in time for your first semester final exams.
  5. Don't hold yourself back. Don't be held back. When you are in a relationship with someone you care deeply about, it's common to make personal sacrifices that ultimately undermine your potential and the development of your personality. If you are passionate about becoming a lawyer, but your partner is afraid of being abandoned by you, it is your responsibility to fulfill your potential and their responsibility to address their fears. Conversely, if your partner is in law school and is not giving you what you need to feel fulfilled in your relationship, it is your responsibility to raise these issues with your partner and, if they can't be addressed, to move on. This may sound like tough advice; but ultimately, both partners in a relationship must feel like they are living their lives fully, expressing their personality and realizing their potential. When these qualities are stifled in a relationship, resentment and anger ultimately take over where love and hope once lived.

All of this sounds serious, I know. While I genuinely believe that it can be easy for relationships to grow and blossom during law school, I also think that it's worthwhile to face the challenges of law school early on and head-on. Your relationship is worth this honest, soul-searching appraisal and your intimacy will only grow stronger when both of you have the courage to face this challenge hand-in-hand, eyes wide open.

The $100,000 Gamble guides potential law school applicants through an honest self-assessment of whether or not law school is a good fit. If you or your boyfriend/girlfriend are considering law school, it's important to give the decision the serious attention it deserves. There's so much at stake with the law school decision you owe it to yourself to understand and clarify the incredible rewards and the lurking risks that are before you. I have some terrific bonuses I'm including with the book that will make the process even more rewarding and captivating.

Go For Your Masters In Education And Shape The Future


Saturday, March 5, 2011

Do you find yourself helping children with difficult school concepts or developing creative ideas to assist them in grasping information? Do you enjoy being in the company of kids and listening to how they experience the world? Are you dependable, but also firm? Then maybe you should consider pursuing a degree in elementary education.

Those who are interested in teaching children usually grow up with a great appreciation for the learning process. Teachers have a vested interest in seeing kids thrive because they know and appreciate the fact that children represent the future. Potential teachers usually have the ability to inspire their students to trust them as educators and they also motivate them to appreciate the learning process.

Elementary school teachers generally teach all core subjects to the same set of kids for the entire school year. Receiving a bachelors degree in elementary education means that one must have a strong background in liberal studies in order to reflect the type of curriculum they will be teaching to their students. Added to this, many institutions allow for the college student to choose a specialization in a specific subject area, such as English, math or science.

College students majoring in education will have course studies that immerse them in communication skills, pedagogical knowledge, instructional designs, and educational psychology to name a few. These courses build a foundation for thoughtful and practical educators, as well as prepare them for the type of situations they will encounter in the teaching environment.

Not only does obtaining a degree in elementary education demand one be an effective communicator, but the student must also be able to understand and respond positively to the emotional and educational needs of the students. Students assimilate information in various ways and teachers need to be able to adjust to these changing factors. The education program will prepare them for these eventualities.

Technology also plays a major role in the teaching curriculum, so it is important that education majors master these necessary proficiencies. Computers are not only used to perform administrative duties, but they are also used in classroom activities to facilitate the learning process, while also introducing kids to the basics of computer use.

The education course curriculum will usually require the student to obtain hands-on experience as well. Most institutions require a minimum number of student-teaching hours before they can obtain their bachelor's degree. This is a wonderful opportunity for students to put their newly learned teaching methods into action. Students will discover which approaches best facilitate the conveyance of information. They will also learn how to converge their personal styles with the formal techniques that have been taught to them.

Taking your schooling to the masters in education level opens doors to institutions of higher learning, such as universities, as possible employers. Whether you choose to obtain your degree through courses online or in the classroom, make sure your education program is accredited by a verifiable teaching association. Teachers play a significant role on a child's life from Pre-K up into college. You should never underestimate or forget how truly important you are to a child's foundation as a life-long learner.

Futurists and Think Tanks Would Be Well Advised to Take a Look at the Recording Future Blog


Friday, March 4, 2011

If only we could know the future - or maybe we can. That is to say maybe today's technology can give us insight into the future, and allow us to gauge where the river and flow of society is heading. There is a new company that takes all the information in the media and uses it to help plot the future potential eventualities. The name of that company is; Recorded Future.

Not long ago, I was reading the Recorded Future's blog. And I'd like to make a couple of statements, about what I read, and why I feel it is very important. Now then, Regarding Recorded Future's Blog Post in July entitled; "White Paper Addendum - Plato, the Cave and Recorded Future,"

I'd like to make the following comments, but first I recommend that you go look it up online. I'd like to say that we also must consider the credibility of the information can also be rated post event, for analyzing a future event; probability. For instance, if this event did not take place in the specified time period, then the news source might be lowered, or the individual making the statement could be lowered.

Eventually you could estimate the potential eventualties to a very high degree and rate the sources with the AI system. Black Swan aside, there is no way in the future a human or group of humans could be as accurate as often as an AI computer system using this scheme, or a hybrid future variation of it. Indeed, this is only the beginning, remember V. Bush's concept of recording a whole life; LifeLog, as that is coming too as personal tech, constant "internet" wireless communication with GPS, digital cameras, video, etc, becomes the norm in all countries.

Anyway, this is only the beginning as I see it, and eventually human decision makers will check their work against these systems prior to making decisions, and the next step is to trust them over self, or over other humans. Then another potential step would be to combine the human mind - melding both, imagine the efficiency and accuracy of having all that knowledge?

Meanwhile the system self-corrects itself as it goes - sounds like this is the Six Sigma of intelligence, and decision making for the future. Does that mean your future CEO will be a box connected to a server, with real time access to all data? YES. So, don't worry about CEO pay being too high, like the factory workers they too will be replaced by machines! Wow, this is interesting, so I guess, I'll write another Sci Fi piece on it all, and the possible futures. Please consider all this.

Lance Winslow is the Founder of the Online Think Tank, a diverse group of achievers, experts, innovators, entrepreneurs, thinkers, futurists, academics, dreamers, leaders, and general all around brilliant minds. Lance Winslow hopes you've enjoyed today's discussion and topic. http://www.WorldThinkTank.net - Have an important subject to discuss, contact Lance Winslow.

College - Finding Scholarships For College Tuition


Wednesday, March 2, 2011

Searching for scholarships is really fairly easy. Many people have heard stories about students who started searching for scholarships in a public library, with no knowledge of scholarships whatsoever. Ten and twenty years ago, students had to look through directories in order to research scholarships and their eligibility requirements. Today, searching is easier than ever, but still were quires patience and persistence.

You will find hundreds and hundreds of different organizations that offer scholarships. It will be up to you to contact each individual organization to see if you can qualify. Many organizations will not return your phone calls or send you letters. You will have to follow up with them, sometimes constantly bugging them. You can also go to your local churches and clubs and start asking about local organizations they give away scholarship money for students.

You don't need a half-million dollars to attend college at a university of your choice. All you really need is some patience and persistence channeled in the direction of looking for scholarships. The scholarships when I show up at your front door or in your mailbox, you have to go out and look for them. You will need a good, if not outstanding, academic record in order to find and obtain the best scholarships available.

Go to your local library and pull out a directory. There are many different directories, which each have literally thousands of private scholarships that you can qualify for, if you meet their requirements. Computers make this search very easy. You will probably need your high school guidance counselor's help when you first start.

Every scholarship that you qualify for, all you will have to do is write them a letter and send a self-addressed stamped envelope requesting some information. This can even be done over the Internet now days, with the exchange of an e-mail address. Some scholarships will be given out to students of certain ethnic backgrounds. Some scholarships will be given out based on a student's religious background. Other scholarships will be given out to students who meet certain academic requirements. There are some scholarships that will even offer to pay a partial tuition if you are at a redheaded female living in York, Pennsylvania that wants to major in architecture. There is literally a scholarship to match almost any and everyone. Use your patience and persistence to find money that will help you make your future better and brighter by attending your university of choice.

Ten and twenty years ago, students had to look through directories in order to research scholarships and their eligibility requirements. Today, searching is easier than ever, but still were quires patience and persistence.

You will find hundreds and hundreds of different organizations that offer scholarships. It will be up to you to contact each individual organization to see if you can qualify. Many organizations will not return your phone calls or send you letters. You will have to follow up with them, sometimes constantly bugging them. You can also go to your local churches and clubs and start asking about local organizations they give away scholarship money for students.

You don't need a half-million dollars to attend college at a university of your choice. All you really need is some patience and persistence channeled in the direction of looking for scholarships. The scholarships when I show up at your front door or in your mailbox, you have to go out and look for them. You will need a good, if not outstanding, academic record in order to find and obtain the best scholarships available.

Go to your local library and pull out a directory. There are many different directories, which each have literally thousands of private scholarships that you can qualify for, if you meet their requirements. Computers make this search very easy. You will probably need your high school guidance counselor's help when you first start.

Every scholarship that you qualify for, all you will have to do is write them a letter and send a self-addressed stamped envelope requesting some information. This can even be done over the Internet now days, with the exchange of an e-mail address. Some scholarships will be given out to students of certain ethnic backgrounds. Some scholarships will be given out based on a student's religious background. Other scholarships will be given out to students who meet certain academic requirements. There are some scholarships that will even offer to pay a partial tuition if you are at a redheaded female living in York, Pennsylvania that wants to major in architecture. There is literally a scholarship to match almost any and everyone. Use your patience and persistence to find money that will help you make your future better and brighter by attending your university of choice.
