Better work or less productivity

Some of the most important works in all the world are composed of the benefits they bring, as the economy is too bad most of the works are going down and the people is trying to look for benefits. Since the economy is so bad when you are a boss of a lot of employers you need a way to make your company be more efficient than the others. In here we can see how Google a big company which has a lo t of benefits for their employers and that like to give a lot of things to the people that work for it.

We agree with the owners of Google when they make all of this benefits for their employers so that they make enough job satisfaction for hundreds of people. Making harder the employment of a lot of people, they make more customers satisfied and a lot of productivity for the company so that all of the employers work with a lot of happiness and make more effective the production of the company. By the other point all this benefits for the employers is the best way of solution for a company by making their employers so happy that the sales will increase and all the good things for the company will increase but never decrease. Due to the fact, globalization is a process which involves all the environment, such as the company´s where people are becoming more interacted people, which have more care about employees, giving to them a lot of benefits, making them more productive but as we know all the things on excess can be counter-productive.

By the other hand the bad things of giving so much benefits to the workers of a company is that the quality won’t be the same, the product will be not that good and the productivity some times will be lower. By the same way customers won’t like the service of the company, the employers won’t know anything cultural about the company and nothing of values they will have for their families or for the related things from the company and there will be lower connection between the values from the employers and their behaviors during their work in the job.

Finally, most of the companies that use this strategies for making their employers work better by giving them a lot of benefits and practical things to do while they are working, are companies that know that by this way the production of the company will be higher and the customers happier will be better. Even though this companies also may have some control over this activities for making their employers not going by the wrong way and have bad behaviors and not any value at the job facility.

Shattered Glass

In short the movie is a real experience, where he is a journalist named Stephen Glass, where he is the person writing an article just invented stories and possibly exaggerated as can happen in the article by bogus cats.

On the other side comes to power in the articles show how you can get to see the sides of the lies like invent and fantasize and to see the reflection can be reached through this kind of articles.

But at the end of the day you can see that the journalist prefers to watch from the situations to be invented by those who actually have to disclose, because people always seek to know what is happening to them.

Bogus Trend of the Week: Dudes With Cats


Is a bogus item cats, where you can see how people come to fall through their ingenuity with a bit far-fetched stories and see how well the journalists and generally people come to take advantage of such situations.
Likewise we can see through these situations, people come to exaggerate, which does not become a truth in what I would find this kind of arituclos, since the articles can lelgar to be fun and informative look, without having the need to exaggerate in the details, characters, situations etc, which will submit.
For this reason it is at all times we are journalists or not we should care with the things we say, as we write, so that when you reach the target reader, can come to have an acceptance and understanding and a sense not equal but if you like that every writer wanted to express at the time to translate ideas into a paper

Their Lives In His Hands


1. What Is Your Reaction to Paul McKenna and what he does?


Supplement is incredible as a person with two steps could generate a person enters a trance, thus generating a feeling of calm and relaxation in which one can get to be aware of the situation and see what comes to paul with one, putting the people in a state in which they say come to feel as if they were at all times anesthesia



2. Have you (or has anyone you know) had any experience of being hypnotised? Give details

I've never really been in a situation neither of these know someone who has been present, so if it is true is that I have seen in television programs as too may come to draw the truth through hypnosis, even if at some point of life will come to present me the opportunity to experience a trance like these, you would love

3. Would you like to be be hypnotised? Why/Why not?

If, as it would be an interesting sensation never before experienced, so that as I would be very interesting, on the other hand I like a lot of things so I have a lot of intrigue and curiosity to see how we can make things through so simple to get to get not only a thing of the past but of attitudes that one might have, they really do not know a thing or anything.

4. If you were going to be hypnotised, what would you ask for help with?

I am not exactly a field in which I might consider, but I really would like to experiment and come to know the fears of many that I sometimes have or know the meaning of dreams that I have to express or perhaps repressed motivation I have for these are expressed so.

Journal week of Nov. 10 to Nov. 15

Today, Tuesday Nov. 11 were in class to prepare for the final exam that is the day Thursday November 13, in groups of 4 to read each paragraph and ahciendo the exercise of taking out the main idea and details of at least 3 reading, On the other hand we explained how it will be the theme of each of the exams.

Daily from 3 weeks to Nov. 8

Throughout the week, ie on Tuesdays and Thursdays, we were doing exercises in listening, to practice for the aprcial, as the final part of listening is a figure of 10%.
On Tuesday we had before he was appointed as an activity of listening taken from the books that are Studium in order to review for exams, on the other hand we had an exercise with a canncion of Avril Lavigne where, we had to hear and determine which canncion were the right words for each of the blanks, then did an exercise in reading.
On Thursday we did an exercise similar to what is going to do the oral examination, where they are to read a few paragraphs and the idea is that you get the main idea of paragraph 3 and at least as summarizing details. We also did a reading exercise with multiple answers for people who do not carry the book, for people who had taken the book had to resolve the 2 and 3 on Page 132 and 133 respectively on a reading on Paul McKenna.

Daily week of Oct. 27 to Nov. 1

On Tuesday, Oct. 28 did a reading exercise where we had to answer some questions on an individual basis, aintetizando, read the two articles talking about a company called Ada, which is a supermarket chain where he earned a year on average between 9000 and 8800 euros and where its biggest competition was the company and Microsoft where we showed that vbeneficio can get to get companies to give a large number of benefits to people working on it. Thus we fail to see the video task on the people who work at google where we see the many benefits that this company gives its employees such as 15 different menus a day free, free gym, laundry cart, service hairdresser, and so on.; at the end of the class the teacher made a thesis statement about how counterproductive would be to give so many benefits for people, leaving us to this thesis that we may well say advantages and disadvantages on a large number of benefits to which we may well do a test showing these two aspects.

On Thursday October 30 we had no class because of the problems that were presented at botgota having firecrackers erupted 6, so that the university was evacuated at 4 in the afternoon.

World Second War Movie



What did you think of the movie?






It's a pretty stark film about the Second World War, where it is a totally different to that is always shown in any film, documentary, paper, etc. on the subject at a point where there is never biased in that show for equality what they thought and what the Jews came to believe the Germans. To be realistic movie is a bit tough but very sitting in reality, where many people were able to get to be like Sully, being in a "safe area" so to speak at the school in poland and move directly to join the war within the German army, seeing the situation as trying to reach people like. Actually I liked a lot because it shows things we had never seen or heard about the experiences within that time.










Would you be willing to deny your beliefs (religious/political, etc) in order to survive like Sully did?
I think it is not so much because one wants to stop thinking about what q think what it does, many times the situations are APRA that, and poniendome in liugar of sulñly you could get to thinking that what you were looking for was only able to survive and the power back to meet with his family and girlfriend and to be able to return as they were before everything happened, so many of the times is everything is depending on the situations in this case Sully never stopped thinking about what the in truth it was because at the end looking at all times with Russian troops returned to be with his brother and his family, but do not exist. It is here where I think that this is decided by one, it is decided that if the house is not generated a good relationship with a very good school where he was the right way to explain a person what their roots, that person will not will be able to understand at some point you have a particular source.

Technological Development Article

TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT AND THE ORIGINS OF AGRICULTURAL ENTREPRENEUR

Once the social structure of capitalist landlords, tenants and employees, the first secured for himself a juicy tenure. The second or "new" agricultural capitalists (who are then joined the first) was commissioned to introduce technological innovations to make more productive his "business", thus following the pattern that marked the inauguration of modernity [3]. The past, employees have been held since then in the same position, although increasingly exacerbate their plight, irrespective of economic cycles of boom and depression. In this scenario, found the interests of new agricultural capitalists, as happened in the industrial field, made them addicted to a constant technological development that would give them advantages over the rest of their competitors. At first, the technology was appropriated such capitalists or those who could emerge as such, but then, and more consolidated with the farm business and the opening of international markets, agricultural capitalists began to pay for a particular development of it, translating it in their interests, contradictions and correlations of power. Hence, the history of development of agricultural technology is intimately intertwined with that of the capitalist class. While it is true that technological development is not particularly agricultural capitalism (as can be invaluable in identifying practices "pre" still exist in peasant and indigenous communities of Latin America and other parts of the world), it is the logic that drives , Its form and rhythm. As can be read in the text of Fussell, The Agricultural Revolution of 1600 to 1850, the concept of a technological revolution in agricultural practice, "... it has become accepted as a description of a prolonged period of modern history" [4] This period, as part of the history of the capitalist system of production, opens with a slow process of reconfiguring the traditional agricultural production techniques. Then passes rapidly to both functional and increasingly aggregated. In fact, says Fussell, the pace of improvements from 1600 to 1850 was at least five times slower than that achieved during the first half of the twentieth century [5]. Initially, it went from production in the open field fences, were improved tools, and introduced new crops to return the land more productive (case of alfalfa, clover, turnips, etc.). The new production scheme formally subsumed focused on forage and roots. These, Fussell writes, "... were the pivot around which revolved the Agrarian Revolution. The larger and more secure supply of them, also increased the number of cattle to be maintained, and these animals in turn produced a more abundant fertilizer and better enabling fertilize successfully arable land ... In addition, cultivation of roots and herbs alternately with cereal, in a rotation of four stages or any amendment thereto, increased the total cultivable area and a work of plowing and cultivation deeper (hoes and escarbado) between rows of roots was combined with the chemical reactions of leguminous plants to confer greater productivity to the ground. "[6] Such a scheme productively successful, as Fussell points out, only consolidated until the new boosted the agricultural capitalists, "... reaching its peak in the period of high farming, between 1840 and 1880" [7]. Once established formal notice that it established a peculiar logic to the production, the agricultural environment in a position to be reconfigured in its essence: from technological innovation. The goal then was the productivity by high productivity, or in other words, the real subsumption beginning of agricultural production. Thus, it appears the plow with landfills and iron fence (in 1785 and 1803 were awarded to the respective patents Robert Ransome, founder of the Company Ransom [8], now merged with a part-Sweden-Electrolux, and other party Textron Inc. USA). It also appears the sower of Jethro Tull (a lawyer trained at Oxford and prosperous farmer who promoted the Norfolk system [9]), the harvester Bell (1820-1830) and McCormick (1834), the first basic concepts for a traction Based on the steam engine that would lead to widespread use of tractors and their use in later (1889) would be converted with the introduction of the internal combustion engine (case of the first tractor gasoline LF Burger, who was operating a thresher), etc. . The formal and real modernization of agriculture in Britain, as can be read in Fussell, was: "... continuous, and perhaps intensified, under the encouragement of wars and slowed to some extent by postwar depression, but the revolution knew the expansion until the appearance of over-competencies in the areas of food ... in the decades of 1870 and 1880. "[10] The main elements of the Agricultural Revolution in that country, Fusell summarizes," ... were the introduction of new fodder crops in arable land and a rotation Quad-fenced fields that have replaced the large expanses of open fields ... were prepared irrigated lawns, new machines were built-planter, thresher, winnow, Brush cutter, as well as improved plows, and rotating wheels, for one or two grooves and dual-gate and were projected different types of hoe, of harrow, cultivator and Scaler. "[11] However, in social terms, what was the outcome of such a technological feat? Fusell says, "... in the late eighteenth century, the triple organization of the population in rural landowners, tenants and workers had become, in general, in the normal condition of rural society." [12] Note that this is configuration of the land that Marx reports on its discussion on the original constitution of the land on which modern states that are the real farmers who are occupied by a tenant-capitalist, which pays the landlord (owner of that the land theft [13] and which operates on certain days) a sum of money fixed by contract. The rent of land, said Marx, assumes ownership of certain individuals on certain portions of the planet, where the income is the way in which it is economically the private ownership of land, the manner in which the values [14 ]. Corroborating this line of analysis, Fusell agrees that, "... the Agricultural Revolution led to a much larger quantity of food, but it was also the largest number of those who consume a large amount people working in industries. But for the vast Most of the people the new processes and new supplies did nothing, because the poor remained mired in poverty increased despite the comforting belief in a general rise in living standards. For large landowners and ranchers who adopted the modern system had Instead, substantial benefits. [15]; Thus, to guarantee private property on those benefits, it was necessary to consolidate a parallel patent system effective and functional. Cardwell writes regard to the theme that "... in the seventeenth century the most active centers of technological innovation were in Western Europe ... The patents in England of the sixteenth century were mostly monopolies, [but] ... the Law of Monopolies 1964 ended with many of the most flagrant abuses of the system, while preserving the practice of granting the inventor of letters ... to safeguard the patent monopoly by initially twenty-one years .... The law did not eliminate all abuses ... but the laws were weighed and improving gradually over the following centuries. After the Act of Union was extended to Scotland in 1707 and in 1790, the nascent republic of the United States of America instituted its own patent laws inspired by the English-Monopoly Law "[ 16]. The innovations of the Agricultural Revolution, with its respective patents, the author adds, "... the way he had to drive to the great development of food production on land, such as America and Australia, they would not be entirely up to explored nineteenth century "[17]. BIRTH OF THE DOME OF AGRICULTURAL ENTERPRISE ESTADOUNIDENSE Toward the productivity of the twentieth century Considering the picture above, and moving across the Atlantic, one can understand the logic of substance stimulated technological development in agriculture in the second half of the nineteenth century in the USA. The case is interesting, especially since born to be a capitalist country, and recent conformation with strong business interests of the dome rooted in national power (Washington was the richest man, John Hancock was a wealthy merchant, Benjamin Franklin brought a printer, etc. [18]). According to Howard Zinn, before the business need to go possession of the west, you will be opened step by the growing white population, exterminating the native population and intensifying the construction of roads, canals, railroads, and also the telegraph. In parallel, "... the farms were being mecanizando ... had steel plows, lawn mowers, mowers, harvesters, better tire to separate the fiber from the seed, and at the end of the century, harvesters and threshers giant cutting the grain, as trite and got into sacks. "[19] In 1850, only the John Deere company produced 10 thousand plows a year. Cyrus McCormick built a thousand mechanical harvesters annually in its plant in Chicago. A man equipped with sickle could mow half acre of wheat in a day. With a mechanical reel could reap ten acres. "[20] As a result, Zinn data indicate that between 1860 to 1900 (when full territorial expansion to the west), the number of farms increased from 2 to 6 million [21] . Apparently, and in terms of productivity, all painted very well, but if anything has characterized capitalism is that "not everything looks pretty good for everyone." Zinn explains this situation strikingly: "... the land and machinery costing money, so I had to ask the farmers on loan, hoping that the price of their crops to remain high ... Farmers who could not pay them saw their houses and seized their land. They became tenants. In 1880, 25% of the farms were rented by tenants and the number was increasing. Many do not even have the money to hire and became pawns. In 1900, there were already in country 4 billion handymen [the 5.5% of the total population] [22]. Thus, while proletarianized to farmers and land was concentrated in a few landowners, farmers (on top landowners or linked to them), is deeply committed to technological innovation that enabled them to accumulate more wealth, an effort that would deepen in the twentieth century (see below). The purpose little altruistic and other-focused private profit of U.S. agricultural capitalist class, was fruitful. The story is corroborated. U.S. is now regarded as the breadbasket of the world thanks to its agricultural industry, only possible by the "efforts" of the business group said. To give an example with the actors mentioned above, today John Deere is a multinational of all types of agricultural machinery, forestry and garden. It operates in 160 countries and sales in 2002 amounted to 13,900 million dollars (million dollars). The Cyrus McCormick (then known as International Harvester Company to merge, under the tutelage of JP Morgan, with its biggest competitors, the Deering Harvester Company, Plano Harvester Co., Warder, Bushnell Glessner & Co, and Milwaukee Harvester Company) became a company of significant size. In 1924 partnered with Ford to manufacture the Farmall, a tractor with visibility near the crop. Purchased by J. I. Case Company in 1985, today is a subsidiary of the multinational CNH (the world's first manufacturer of agricultural tractors and harvesters and the third producer of equipment for construction). Its 2000 sales were 9.700 million USD. And all this, what brought the agricultural technology development in the twentieth century? Fitzgerald [23], makes an interesting account of this process in the U.S.. The author suggests that agricultural research was tied to the Federal Government since 1862. The locks were the Hatch Act (for the creation and dissemination of agricultural knowledge) and the Adams Act (to provide more funding for scientific research) that eventually leave to the Department of Agriculture of the United States (USDA-by Franklin English) or state experimental stations, almost all of the research and / or its funding [24]. In itself, what was done was the collection of genetic material (raw material) and information as a starting point and sustenance for the improvement of seeds (hybrid) and the development of agrochemicals. However, the peculiar path that took to the USDA's research can only be explained on the basis that, "... particularly in rural states, prosperous farmers had great influence with legislators, [so] the research projects were often focused towards their interests, rather than those of small farmers, or, to the advancement of general scientific theories ... [The result was that] ... under the twentieth century progressed, the scientists were shores to seek financing beyond accepting funding from the State ... the world of business. "[25] The transfer of knowledge, technologies and scientists from the public to the private sector, were not expected. In fact, the ties that so far maintained the USDA with the business sector in this country are so strong that plays the role of spokesman on agricultural business interests in the political arena in the country. It is so obvious that symbiosis State / company, as "natural" in U.S. history, the government of Ronald Reagan, put the executive of its multinational seed, Cargill, as chief negotiator in the Uruguay Round of GATT (now the World Trade) with regard to issues of agriculture. Considering the above, Fitzgerald's words are appropriate: "... In 1900 the actors in agricultural science were the farmers that provided genetic material, and what it was, in fact, laboratory space (the field crops and greenhouses) ... The businessmen had become major players in the agricultural business. In general, most of these transitions occurred between 1920 and 1960 ... [Because] ... the expansive role of corporate players has led to a growing mentality in the industrial agriculture, the most notable demonstrated in efforts to convert the simple practices of the farmers in production systems, ie systems that are similar to the dynamic industrial factory where the materials and processes are specialized, automated and integrated. In some This case was consolidated in a vertical integration; think here in a seed corporations like Pillsbury, who hired cereal in the U.S. Midwest, or in the western producers of fruit and vegetables that controlled the process, from planting to its canning. In other cases were linked to companies like Pioneer Hybrids ... or Funk Brothers Seed Company. "[26] It is therefore of an entire logic that has led to increasingly placing agricultural business elite, the head of the business. It is no coincidence that the examples of corporate Fitzgerald are now part of corporate giants that are placed in the top position globally. While Pioneer was taken over by DuPont-USA-(first seed, second and fifth agrochemical chemistry of the planet); Funk Brothers became part of Ciba-Geigy, which later in 1996, would be merged with Sandoz, and this in turn with Novartis (recently integrated with Zeneca under the name of Syngenta, is the third seed and agrochemical first in the world based in Switzerland) [27]. NSA began to experiment with business beholden to the USDA or intimate link in the "improvement" of seeds and development of agricultural chemicals (a result of the conversion of the chemical industry that, during the Second World War had focused almost exclusively for the production of chemical weapons-spectacular case of Monsanto, inventor of Agent Orange, among many others) [28]. The result was the selection, hybridization, and next thing (since the end of the decade from 1970 to date), the genetic design of the same [29]. The promotion of hybrid seeds or improved (but not genetically designed or transgenic), presumably more productive, it became not only from the world of business that developed, but also from the U.S. government and its many agencies, which obviously highlights USDA. Breaking with the tradition of saving the seeds of a production cycle to another, spread the use of such seeds, now purchased by farmers each production cycle. The "achievement": "... for 1940, the majority of farmers or peasants in the U.S. had changed to hybrid seeds of maize." [30] In such a chain of events prompted the U.S., particularly marked in partnership with the World Bank (WB), which is known as the Green Revolution (RV). Although the fund was to give impetus to his nursery business and agrochemical already heavily consolidated, the RV was sold under the idea of "assisting the South in their agricultural problems"; casually through the dissemination of improved seeds or high-yielding HYVs varieties, which required them, "for a better result", the use of agrochemicals which developed its own subsidiaries or multinationals. The outcome of VR has been the degradation and pollution of the soil (because of the massive use of agrochemicals), the loss of genetic diversity of cultivated species (as a result of the homogenization of the genetic variety of seeds to the standardized use of HYV), among other consequences of ecological character, not to mention the social order. It is noteworthy that since the sixties of last century, Carson corroborate that "... we have said that the massive use of pesticides is necessary to sustain agricultural production. But our real problem of overproduction is not it? Our farms have surrendered ... so amazing over-harvesting, that the American taxpayer paid in 1962 over a thousand million dollars to sustain the cost of the program storage of surplus food. "[31] Not surprisingly, so far the U.S. has an ongoing program Funding to increase the storage capacity of food (the Farm Storage Facility Loan Program), that by the end of 2001 reached a capacity of 8.42 billion bushels (229, 153, 668 tonnes) [32]. Technology development driven by corporate agricultural dome does not stop there. The fact that in practice there is nothing to stop the farmers to use improved seeds and then save some of the second generation to the next cycle, forced to develop hybrid varieties that quickly lose their qualities "positive" from one generation to another. Under the direction of technology, the fantasy of biologically controlling the agri-business brought him the progress of biotechnology. The development of genetically modified seeds (GMOs) opened the doors to design sterile seeds; adjustable processes (such as germination, Florea, etc.) by agricultural chemicals or "additives" that the multinational produces, among other features with great commercial potential as are the delay of the maturation period of the "product", higher or lower water, oil, fiber, etc. [33]. GMOs, although controversial because of the uncertainty and risks arising from their use (both in terms of socio-economic, environmental and health), until 2002, his breakthrough came at 16% of the total global area planted with four basic species (58% of soybeans, corn 12%, 12% cotton and 7% of canola). The 1370 patents registered until the end of 1998, according to data from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, fell to 30 applicants. Of these, 74% corresponded to 6 multinationals: Monsanto / Pharmacia (287), Dupont (279), Syngenta (173), Cargill-Dow (157), Aventis (77) and Grupo Pulsar (38). According to Wood Mackenzie, the industry analyst, estimates that in 1999 Monsanto / Pharmacia (USA) captured 80% of all profits from the market of agro-biotechnology, while Aventis (France) gained 7%, Syngenta (Switzerland) 5%, BASF (Germany) 5% and Dupont (USA) 3%. Those gains would have to add those generated by the sale of improved seeds (hybrid), which would be placed in the first line followed by DuPont, Monsanto / Pharmacia and Syngenta [34]. As can be seen, the business of the multinationals is all on one side of the Atlantic, as in the other, suggesting that in the twentieth century, Europe experienced processes of consolidation and concentration of agricultural business leaders, relatively similar to the Americans. It is clear that the roots of landowners and annexed in its then nascent capitalist farming, his crossing of interest, camaraderie, competition and contradictions, are much more intricate in the old continent, which gives him unique characteristics that in general such a review as this is lost sight of. The evolution of the capitalist system of agricultural production, their related social structures and the necessary competition and constant intercapitalista between the "old" and some "new" players (quickly absorbed by the first), has forced the development of more effective technologies for monitor and ensure the private business of agriculture. This redefines and rearrange the position of the players involved, while reinforcing and / or establishing new relations of power. Meanwhile, on the other side of the coin, the farmer has been dramatically losing constantly functions. The countryside becomes a space of agribusiness, now based not only on mechanization, but also in agrochemicals, information technology, irrigation systems last generation, the vertical integration of agro-food chains and the latest biotechnological innovations. It is a scenario in which striking finding by Richard Oliver, CEO of DuPont when, with historical amnesia informs us that biotechnology innovations (GMOs and others) are emerging as the second green revolution, a revolution in technology, adds Oliver, in that, "... the race between multinationals bioagrícolas a race is not just economic but rather a race for life." [35] FINAL Based on this reflection on the technological development, we can say without fear of being wrong, that the thread of that process has been primarily the interest of the private agricultural business leaders. In that sense, it could hastily assumed that any such technology plundering of natural and social environment of agriculture is bad. Therefore, it is central to clarify, as Kranzberg says, that "technology is not good, nor bad, rather it is neutral." But this must be understood, to repeat the words of a saint, such as the fact that, "... objects resulting from technological development or use values do not contain a telos, a goal or an inherent sense, so that their organic forms are objectively teleological (right to life ends), so that the purpose of social productive forces is the inherent human and useless for the universal development of mankind while serving for the satisfaction of needs [36]. " Kranzberg says, among other of its laws [37], that "technology is a human activity, and therefore so is the history of technology." It can lead to the essence of this process in human-active transformation of nature, is imbued with the logic of the production system involved, the purpose for which it is developed. This explains for example, why has opted for the development of GMOs with features that favor first to the seed industry and food processing, and not by the research and spread of agro-ecological complex technologies, or other environmentally and socially harmonic [38]. From the social perspective, it is clear that what is private in front of a collective, and thus the capitalist market mechanism as "socializing" of production, is widening the gap between rich and poor, and worsened the extermination by starvation of those classified in the "extreme poverty". Faced with such impressive and particular technological development, with food rotting in the warehouses, if the market indicates the agricultural entrepreneurial class that is the best choice, modern social structures, are nothing other than the configuration of a real war classes, where what is at stake is the food and hence the existence of a large part of the social subject in the world, let alone that of the environment. If the "whole story is relevant, but the history of technology is even more," says Kranzberg; that is prominent, to the extent that, although not all versions of the technology developed and controlled by the capital are suitable for being used by the social revolution (which should include conservation of the environment), nor are all unacceptable. As presented here, I believe therefore that identify and dig into the history of business leaders on the role they play in developing the means of production, is essential to seriously consider any alternative economic, social and environmentally better. Notes [1] Stine and Tarr. "At the intersection of histories." Technology and Culture. The Society for the History of Technology. Vol. 39. No. 4. USA, 1998: 610. [2] Dumas agrees that, "... the modern manufacturing output is determined by the emergence of social structures." Since then, increasingly exploited by the classes that have monopolized the means of production and, therefore, hold power. (See Dumas, Maurice. Générale Histoire des Techniques. Presses Universitaires de France, 1968) [3] Although Rousseau is the first to use the word modernist in the sense that it will be used in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, it was not until the beginning of that era, when Marx said that the modern world context in which we live and that comes with capitalism, arises from the expropriation of the means of production, separating them from the worker.

A rapid expansion of the company, thanks to the patent monopoly, was followed by the depression of the early nineteenth century that led to diversify into construction of bridges (in the years of 1820), blinding (1839), mills, parts trains such as chairs, belts, etc. (1840 to 1869 when that division was separated from the company under the name of Ransome and Rapier), and even, in the first domestic gas installations. For 1849 the company already had over 1000 registered employees. In the same period experiment the production of steam, showing off a portable steam engine at the Royal Agricultural Society in 1841 and the following year a prototype of Automobile. Manufactured the first machine traction in the 1860s. Since then became one of the largest producers of portable steam engines, stationary and traction; exporting the bulk of its production to countries such as Russia, Australia and South America. Between 1920 and 1930 the company was dedicated to the production of electric trucks and a tractor innovative small ones, which had a strong success until 1965. During the Second World War, Ransom manufactured weapons and aircraft. In 1954 began to produce harvesters.

SUMMARY

In reviewing the history of technological development in agriculture "modern", draws attention, but not surprised, that the major players involved in that process are placed today at the forefront of business leaders from the farm business (seedling, agrochemical, food, etc.). Such historical inquiry, gives account of how they were forming and strengthening the social structures that would impose the logic of capitalist production, from which it is increasingly boost productivity and greater exploitation of the working class and farming environment.

Brain Power Excercise

1. What are the seven ways to increase your brain power according to Dr. Mercola?

The seven ways to increase your brain power according to Dr. Mercola is:

1. To exercise
2. To make out regularly especially in daylight.
3. Get a good night sleep.
4. Stay away from process food.
5. Improve your fat path.
6. Keep your brain active.
7. Implement creating visualization techniques.

2. What are Colin Roses Accelerated Learning techniques?

Is a six stage system at the initial letters of each stage on the system is MASTER: M: mind set to positive; A: acquire the knowledge; S: search out the meaning; T: trigger your memory; E: exhibit what you know; R: reflect on your learning.

All of this looks very prescriptive it isn’t it just the skeleton. The activities are design to use the brain and that’s why it’s call brain friendly learning; using imagination, using V.A.K, talking about things, doing things. So when people do this, people are involved on the naturally use, your full range into multiple intelligences and when people do this it result fun for them.
So people enjoy this process and when they enjoy, they are good at, and when they are good at they enjoy, making this a cycle which never ends.



3. Open the following page, and play one of the games. Include in your blog the name of the game, and what your result is. What do you think of your results? Did you like the game?

Memory improvement is part of this memory game, the process can be done with few steps that can be easy and performed effortlessly. Many people have trouble remembering faces or names. How to remember things is only a technique that you need to utilize, for example to remember a face you just need to examine a person's face discretely when you are introduced. Try to find an unusual feature, ears, hairline, forehead, eyebrows, eyes, nose, mouth, chin, complexion, etc.
Create an association between that characteristic, the face, and the name in your mind. The association may be to link the person with someone else you know with the same name. Alternatively it may be to associate a rhyme or image of the name with the person's face or defining feature, try to apply that to one of the memory games below..
Also when you are introduced, ask for the person to repeat their name. Use the name yourself as often as possible (without overdoing it!). If it is unusual, ask how it is spelled or where it comes from, and if appropriate, exchange cards. Keep in mind that the more often you hear and see the name, the more likely it is to sink in.
Also, after you leave the person, review the name in your mind several times. If you are particularly keen you might decide to write it down and make notes, that would help and improve your memory search process
The methods suggested for remembering faces and names are fairly simple and obvious, but are useful. Association either with images of a name or with other people can really help. Repetition and review help to confirm your memory.
This memory game is going to activate some areas of your brain responsible for memory acquisition which therefore can help your memory improve. Enjoy it and try to finish before 1:30 min.
My time was 1 minute and 27 seconds.

White Lion - When The Children Cry

Little child
Dry your crying eyes
How can I explain
The fear you feel inside
´cause you were born
Into this evil world
Where man is killing man
and no one knows just why

What have we become
Just look what we have done
All that we destroyed
You must build again

When the children cry
Let them know we tried
´cause when the children sing
Then the new world begins

Little childYou must show the way
To a better dayFor all the young
´cause you were born
For the world to see
That we all can live
with love and peace

No more presidents
And all the wars will end
One united world under God

When the children cry
Let them know we tried
´cause when the children sing
Then the new world begins

What have we become
Just look what we have done
All that we destroyed
You must build again

No more presidents
And all the wars will end
One united world under God

When the children cry
Let them know we tried
´cause when the children fight
Let them know it ain´t right
When the children pray
Let them know the way
´cause when the children sing
Then the new world begins..

As people can come to understand that money is not the only way to be happy?


Today given to the process of globalization that today we all live, is a grandiose idea and a great reality that everybody has more money and that thanks to this that can become happy, but in reality the money is a happiness, or via an order to do so?



While certainly hand, I disagree with the idea of thinking that money makes people happy, given that in part it is true that all people need the money to fulfill their dreams, but if we detemos and we get to think of the many people who do not have large amounts of money, they can become happier than those who earn large amounts of money in their work.

On the other hand, I think that people do not have absolute happiness, they may have large numbers of joyous moments, because people can have full days of incredible joy, but these people at some point in their lives will have to face certain moments of depression and sadness, where his alleged "happiness" complete, then there is where we say that today people might think that silver generates happiness in people, also we know that money is a big factor importance in our lives to live, but it's really the only thing and / or form that we have people to be happy?




So as a conclusion we can see and think that people do not just need money, they in turn need affection from their families and for being a great person and to be seen as a happy person, that person must have a large amount Securities yp'rincipios that nobody can get to pay for them, the people come to learn from the experience of each of us, through education that each of us arrives to receive in schools, universities, etc..

Day Socialization Of Research Results

Generally in such conferences, I could get to understand how the university wants us to see students all the positives that have come to college and see what they give us tools to complement our development within the university; within these there is a tool that calls me too much attention and is the hotbed of research where they are student groups that develop projects including in the subjects of each ordinary who do not.
In addition to attend the conference "training of entrepreneurs from the perspective of Peter Drucker" by Alvaro Turriago Hoyos; Rafael Guillermo Ricardo Bray; Ines Ecima de Sanchez and Ciro Hernando Parra Moreno, I understand that to become a major employer is not required for one thing, but many in common, such as efficiency, effectiveness and be proactive and pending a future, expect things not prepared and we lame unprepared and finally understood that the business world is very large, that in order to enter the entry must be carefully and with time off to be not dropped.

How Deep Is Globalization In People's Mind?



Due to the fact, today we can see and feel as in the transition from The Flintstones and The Jetsons, where not only is a change of epoch, is totally changed the lifestyle of each of us, because we can get to say that we are people from the Flintstones, as they already do not know is happening around our not know exactly who comes to mean the process by which we are moving, globalization, for what we say and see that this term, globalization is no longer is only one sentence is a reality that we are living and that affects all of us.


Therefore in turn since we all enjoy these changes, since for example those of technology, which have done to us easily our way of living, but since we have been noticing simultaneously that the time happens, the above mentioned changes have achieved that we concern directly our environment and our environment in such a way that we do not see the great hurt that we do to ourselves on not having taken care of it. In turn, we can see as the persons they manage to leave the globalization as a term more that it forms a part of the dictionary and not as a reality which already cannot stop this way as the global warming that we themselves have taken charge managing; for what I hope and have in mind to be able to use the power that grants the globalization, to anticipate that the environmental deterioration increases.

Possibly the persons have not managed to have the due care with the situations that nowadays happen, in such a way that it(manages to understand that in the world it does not exist the quantity of necessary information in order that the persons of any type of stratum, society, culture and enclosed geographical location could know with a clear certain brings over of this topic.

As conclusion at all time the persons that already we are involved, even the persons who are born, are born involved with the globalization, in such a way that we do not have to turn into persons that we are proactive, that we start giving solutions to this great problem that can manage to be a solution of great size and stopping being a part of the problem through that we live to diary.
On the other hand I could believe that in certain moments manages to be lacking in an education to know that the term involves globalization, in such a way that government have to increase, as such the information about this topic for populations of any stratum or demographic region.
