Planning


For this project i will be using a lot of videos because they will have some on that will be analysing some factors which will deepen my knowledge. Also the way that think is the best in order to have more thoughtful and accurate information is that i will be reading the same information about two times to take from it the most important information then i will right down the information. After wards, i will analyse many the many different information and try to give a little interpretation. Since my project is about Hollywood, i will be doing a lot of comparison from the old Hollywood and the Hollywood today and what it means. Hopefully by following this steps, i will have a successful research project

Letter From a soldure


Dear Mom and Dad, 

         I am here in Germany fighting for America. Even though it is my choice, I deeply regret it. It is one of those moments in life where you take a step but can't ever go back. I do not know if I will ever come back alive, or even dead. I have been begging the Generals to send me back home when the next troops will be coming. For the time being I have no choice but under go this awkward situation. I do not know when I will be able to see you. I miss you so much, and you are the only reason why continue fighting. I sometimes act sick in order for me to stay and not go to the battlefields. However this does not guarantee that I will come back. Over here everything is bout friendship, when we do things right we help ourselves and our friends survive. Nevertheless, when we do a little mistake it may cause a big disaster. A big friendship has been built; in fact I consider all of them are like my brothers. The food that we eat her is nothing close to the food that I had back home. The quantities are not enough to feed starving solders, which have been fighting for a whole day. The comfort of being in a house is one of the things that I sis the most as u folds know I have always been extremely sensitive person, and today I have to fight, hurt, and even kill people. I am heartbroken. I always think to myself what if these people had children waiting for them in their home. What if these people had families awaiting for the. The next telegram these people will receive is to announce to them the death of their father, son, brother, or husband. A beloved person who they will never see again. I cry every night praying to God for forgiveness. I don’t know if you remember my  friend James who went with me to college and came with me her. Well he died three days ago. It has been the biggest shock of my life. I was extremely close to home, and every thing we did was together. One day we were walking back to our trenches when all of a sudden there he was falling slowly on his knees looking at me with tears scrolling down his cheeks and he spoke his last words “William, I love you.” Theses words will forever stay in my mind. I cried all the tears in my body, while I was lying next to his dead body, I then decided that James was not like all the other solders; James deserved a real funeral. So did it to him all alone and a few folds from the trench came over and dropped a few tears of sadness.

In the dusty trenches, his sleeping bag was next to mine. Now the only thing next to me is the empty hay. Mice, Rats, and snakes crawl over us at night; at first I was horrified so I didn’t get any sleep. Now I am used to it. I have plunged into depression. The dust covers us every night and day, furthermore we don’t have a place to shower. Every night before I sleep I look at our family picture with Franklin, Joseph, and Nicolas. I miss all of you folks! What do these guys do by now? Last letter Nicolas sent me he said that he had been about to head to Boston because he has been accepted in Harvard. I am proud of my little brother! Did Joseph get married to Demitrea? I miss them tell them they should send their brother letters to keep him updated. I love you all miss you so much you will always be in my heart.

Love, 

William

Teenager Difficulties


For me the teenage period in a human life is the hardest, and there are multiple reasons to support my idea. First basically what a teenager means is the time period in life when a child is growing up to be an adult, and it is generally during that time period that a person makes their choices in life and what type of person they want to be. For some teenagers, this is the hardest part of their lives, however with the help of their parents they get threw their hard times. One of the issues is the fact that some parents lack of presence in their children lives or they are not strict enough thus the teenager has too much freedom. A parent should really take their role seriously when their child has reached teenage period. A teenager does not want to show it but they need the presence of their parents at that time and some times when there are parent issues such as divorce or separation a teenager suffers very much so they will try finding a way to express their feeling by doing something bad such as revolting, taking drugs, smoking, and much more. When a parent helps lead their teenagers on the right track during that time period, even if it is tough but they need to do it for the benefit of their child as well as their own pride of having raised a well educated child. A parent should leave some privacy for their child but still be able to control them because if the child is out of control, they will not even have enough time to realize it that it is too late get anything out of this child. Some parents will just say that their child would not listen to them but a parent is the one that should know how to get their own child's respect and attention. To conclude, a teenager should just have some confidence and faith in themselves then they will end up knowing who they are, what type of person they want to be in the future, also how they want to be a part of the society in the future and generally it is rare that a person chooses to be a bad part of the society.

what is a progressive thinker.

Nowadays, the country of Morocco is facing a few social issues that will probably will be solved threw out the years. The main cause of this issue is the lack of education. The reason that the lack of education is a part of our society is not because the government is not giving the opportunity to people who do not have enough money but because some of the people with a low income prefer using their children for them to work either in their own farms in order for them to produce more goods or for they take them the city and make them work illegally. Generally this issue is mostly in rural areas. In view of the fact that the parents do not go to school, they are not aware of the importance of education in a childs life. In some of the cases the children are mistreated or set to do things no child on earth would want to do, thus they escape or some are orphans and do not have any family members so they end up on the streets. 
A political issue that has been lasting for many years. About 35 years ago, the Sahara (which is entirly Moroccan) has been a freed by the Spanish which has been occupying the Sahara for many years finally freed it after the green march which was held by the the king Hasan II. Even though, the Sahara was freed by these invaders, Algeria and Spain are still fighting for the Sahara. even though this issue is being discused  in united nations and the interational court of justice in the Hague has called it a part of Morocco, this coutries are still fighting for the Sahara. All this fighting is for the honor and the fossil fuels that have been discovered there. For me it is non sense fighting

Imperialism


After using the Princeton dictionary, the clearest answer they had given was “policy of extending your rule over foreign countries”. The American imperialism had its pros and cons which i will discuss. The major benefit was that with the help of the U.S.A the other country would have an economic uplift. For example, the Panama Canal helped firstly with the economy, also the transportation was more common and it also lead to the independence of Cuba, Panama and Philippines. Because of the imperialism, the United States was the worlds most powerful country which helped the rest of the work with many things such as, The Worlds economy due to many factors. Moreover, the United States helped many other under developed countries to develop however, the U.S was not the only country to do that France, england, and many more european countries were doing that and Today we as Moroccans are effected by the way that France has helped us in many ways and lead us to where we are today.To me one of the main Cons to this system is when a country has no freedom and are entirely controled by the United States, thus they do not have a say. Furthermore, I think that imperialism has more cons and that strongly developed countries should continue using this system with no violanc like the United states is doing today to Irak. in additon to this the loss of culture is very bad because the nation does not know who they are andy more and where they come from. Also it would be better if it is with the consentment of the country that is concerned and if it is changed more into a contract, or pact between the two nations.

Our invention

Dear Mr. Buffet,

I am contacting you today to offer you a profitable invention. My partner, Myriam and I have decided to create a new industry. We are known as The M's. Today, after we have done various inventions we would like to present our newest invention. Our logo is we find everything, and we really do. People usually lose their things in the most unusual places. Furthermore, they can lose very
important documents and important objects.

We would like
 to present you the MFA (micro-find anything.) This is a machine that has the size of a pencil. This little object will have microscopic cards. When you want to use them you simply have to press them against the object you want and the microscopic card will automatically be inserted inside the thing you want to keep. Of course this is not the only thing, this object will have a a tactile screens will keep all your data stored. You will only have to click on the object you want to find and it will give you the exact location. You will no longer need to wait for the beeping sounds to get faster. One simple click and the location will be found. Our invention will be first sold in China, since they are very advanced technologically we would like to start there. Then move on the the States and European regions. Finally we will move to Morocco and other less developed countries. This is because we would like to start with countries that are advanced economically then when we have enough money open new stores in less developed countries. 

Name of Company: The M's

Products of Company: Products that will help you find anything.

Horizontal Nature of the Company:

China

Screens:

The screens will be provided by whithner, this industry is located in china.

The microscopic cards will be provided by USB microSD, again in China.

This is advantageous because things will not have to be shipped from one place to another, therefore we will gain profit. These companies are very reliable and their prices are very advantageous. Not only that but the workers are treated respectfully. The health are respected in every single way.

Vertical Nature of the Company (Explain each & where it is located):

Our company is an industry. We get our products from other places and combine them 
to create a brand new project. These other companies are doing their usual job, therefore they will not put the prices too high on us. Buying and Combining at the lowest price and creating a new invention at a high price is our main idea.

Ener
gy

The industries get their energy from fossil fuels. Unfortunately it is polluting, but as a goal we would like to change the industry
into a non polluting industry.
Raw Materials:

Metal, plastic, and glass

Labor

The work has to be done by professionals. We will not accept people that do not have prior knowledge on what we are doing. We would like to have workers that have finished their studies. Of course the prices will vary depending on how much studies the person has done. This will then help me conclude which post they will have in the industry. One group of workers will work 5 days a week, the ot
her will work during the weekend. They will work from 7 am till 8 pm. They will have one hour lunch break and they will be tested for any illnesses before getting in this industry. We also have a agreement with an insurance company. Therefore any damages caused by one of our workers will be payed by them. If a worker gets sick they will get one day off and if they miss more than 3 days they will need a note from a specialized doctor that justifies their absence. If it is justified they will get days off if it is not they will be momentarily suspended with no pay. This is to give a example to other workers since we want a lot of work to be done.

Government & Regulations


The government agreed with us. They think that this is a thoughtful invention that will help the life of millions of people. They agreed to let us use a old piece of land to build our little industry. As our fortune 
gets bigger we would like to expand our industry to another piece of land and get more workers to apply. The government also agreed on our health insurance and health regulations. They have agreed to support us if we have a issue with another company in the future.

Profit

Our company will make profit by not using a lot of transportation. We will only need to transport our products to one place if the country decides to sell our products. We will receive about 70 percent of the total income. The other 20 percent will go to the industries that provide us with the material we use. The other companies agreed on letting us pay 5 percent of the workers pay. This will help us reduce the price of the materials. 
Therefore, the prices for the products will be less expensive.

Now that we are 
millionaires :)

We would like to spend money on reducing pollution in earth. We already mentioned this earlier, but the pollution of earth is a big issue in the world. Reducing it would be a grand achievement. As 
a start we would like to change the industry we work in and the industries we work with as energy efficient industries. Another project we would like to work on is help of poor countries, having lot of money is not to be spendt only on your own self you also have to help people in need. We would like to provide them with water, food, money and education. This will help them learn more and have a great health.

Basicaly with this invention we are planning on helping the earth since we are the only generation that can still do something to save our planet before it is too late!
