On September 11, 2001 terrorists crashed two American airline airplanes into Twin Towers, killing thousands of people. It was the worst terrorist attack in American history and it showed us that we are not protected by Atlantic and Pacific. It showed us that we could be attacked by anyone at anytime. It showed us that if we will be attacked again that we can only depend on each other and not on other nations to help us. The 9/11 changed people forever, some lost family members or friends, others lost their jobs even so called “American Dream.”
The September 11th attacks made us united as one powerful person who can stand up from the ruins of thousands pounds of metal and fight so that we wont have to be in ruins again. In the recent videos Osama bin Laden and his colleagues are talking about the power of Islam and the attacks on Twin Towers. It seems like Osama bin Laden and other radicals are ready for “Jihad” and they are ready to win. They say that Allah is on their side and people around the world want to learn more about Islam since the September 11th attacks. A good example was John Walker, an American who was with Taliban army man when he was captured. He was studying Muslim traditions in Pakistan where he joined Taliban. The other day I was watching “Dennis Miller Live” where I heard Dennis Miller talk about John Walker, he said that his parents should give him more then just spanking. This showed me that even today almost five months of 9/11 people still talk about it.
Our military campaigns in Afghanistan eliminated a regime that supported terrorism and other violent groups. Today in Afghanistan there is no regime and the country is rebuilding it self from the ruins of Soviet war. John Ashcroft who is now the famous man on TV is probably the only one who takes the problem seriously. He said that he wants to check for people who have connections with the Alquida and its cells. But some people say it’s unconstitutional to do that, but in 1700’s or even 1800’s terrorists did not attack America. That means that our finding fathers did not had to deal with Ottoman Empire nor their attacks because we were protected by oceans. Even in the old days constitution was not a factor for some people to do something immoral or illegal.
There are a bunch of conspiracies in this world and there's a few on the tragedy that happened on September 11, 2001. One of the theories is that inside traders knew about the attacks before they happened. As said in an article, “in the days before 9/11 there was a huge increase in the number of put options purchased on their airlines, compared to the normal average daily volume.”(Davis) Before I explain what that means the article also mentioned, “ this huge increase in the volume of put options suggests that the people buying these put options knew in advance that 9/11 was about to happen.” (Davis) What the quotes are saying, is that a few days before 9/11, out of nowhere, there was an huge increase in the airlines, that were hijacked, stock markets. The conspiracy theory is that the government was aware of the attacks the entire time but because they were making profit, this did nothing about it.
People didn’t wake up the next morning and looked forward to their day starting. They were afraid that an attack would happen. People knew that an attack could happen any moment of any day. People were devastated when their loved ones passed on such a tragedy that everyone will remember forever because every year on the day it happened they will get reminded. The attack on September 11, 2001 continues to be the biggest historical event. This is truly something no one would forget. These attacked caused the united states to turn differently. Airport now have very strict security. I can assure that if we had the security we have now, back then this probably wouldn’t have occurred. These events made history. Al Qaeda was a group who put themselves in dangerous activities if it meant they will be hurting others. Osama bin laden had a lot of power. It nearly took the united states about 15 years to find him and kill him. He was found by the american soldiers in his compound near islamabad, pakistan. He was responsible for many deadly acts of terrorism. The attack on new york city is the most known one because it changed the world. New york didn’t live the same after this tragedy. These both events impacted us pretty serious. It made the U.S army more prepared for another attack. If they were to attack us we would be ready. These events happened a while ago and we are thankful not another tragedy has happened
September 11, 2001 was a day that Americans and the world for that matter will not soon forget. When two planes went into the twin towers of the World Trade Center and two others went into the Pentagon and a small town in Pennsylvania, the world was rocked. Everyone in the United States felt very vulnerable and unsafe from attacks that might follow. As a result, confidence in the CIA, FBI, and the airlines were shaken. People were scared to fly after what had happened.
The Deconstruction of the building is one of the most important aspects of the building, The resources that i have found are related to the topic i have chosen (buildings systems) because it goes over important aspects of the building and helps us recognize how that these factors are related to the topic and also to help show that these where a large part of the death. The research that is to be presented is related to the factors of death on 9/11. The most contributing factors of the death on 9/11 was the Building system’s and how they were not completely prepared or not tested.
9/11 was one of the darkest days in America, but some say the government could have been part of these attacks. For many years people have debated about the 9/11 cover up. This theory cannot explain why the government would do this. Once people understand why the 9/11 cover up is fake, they will begin to see the answer to their problem, could the government have done this? This conspiracy theory is wrong because, terrorists admitted to the attacks, so many people died, and there's no evidence against the government.
The attacks on 9/11 are similar to the 1993 bombing at the world trade center because both were terrorist attacks and both were on the world trade center.
Oprah Winfrey grew up in abuse and poverty, but that did not stop her in being the women she is today. Oprah is one of the richest women on Earth, but not without her struggles. On top of that, Oprah is a capitalist pragmatist (Lofton, 2006). Oprah believes in a spiritual path, but one that does not concern religion (Lofton, 2006). Her religion is more about perfecting herself and trying to be the perfect human being (Lofton, 2006). Her family and past, her career, the nature of how she sees God, and the influence she has on people all influence Oprah and her worldview.
Your right, no one could have ever fathomed the magnitude of what happened on 9/11. From the responders to the civilians nothing went as it was "suppose" to. I believe the down and dirty fact remains, according to the official reports we are still making overall mistakes we made before Pearl Harbor. We still seeing the same deficiencies time after time after each major disaster we have had. Our readings stated that NORAD and the FAA never even propose the possibility or had protocol that there would be a suicide hijacking that would turn the aircraft into a missile. They also assumed that the aircraft would not disappear from radar and they would have plenty of time to intercept (Kaimen, 2012). Not to mention all the Intel that was being
The biggest terrorist attack in American history occurred on September 11, 2001. The Islamic al-Qaeda group hijacked four airliners in the United States. Two planes crashed into the World Trade Center in New York City, a third struck the Pentagon, and the fourth plane crashed in Pennsylvania. Nearly 3,000 people were killed including over 400 police officers and firefighters. America's view on the world and Muslims all over, forever changed. Muslims are judged and criticized still today after these events. Muslim Americans after 9/11 should have a right to live freely in America, can help us stop Islamic terrorism, and can increase unity with American citizens and the communities.
Oprah was born in a small, rural town in Mississippi to an unwed teenage mother. Even though her birth was not miraculous like that of other heros, she made up for it in her early years of life with an abundance of charisma and personality. She was so poor at one point she had to wear potato sacks as clothes and was made fun of by her classmates. Oprah faced other hardships early on, including sexual assault by close family members and a pregnancy at the age of fourteen, of which her son died shortly after birth. She was forced to move towns often, living with her mother, grandmother and father at different times throughout her childhood. This did not affect her obviously natural social abilities. She was nicknamed “The Preacher” for her ability to recite bible verses and was often found interviewing her dolls for fun. At the age of seventeen, Oprah won an oratory contest that granted her a full scholarship to Tennessee State University where she majored in communication. She experienced an early recognition of her talents much like many other heros. This was the start of a booming career for her.
Agile software development is a group of software development methods based on iterative and incremental development, where requirements and solutions evolve through collaboration between self-organizing, cross-functional teams. It promotes adaptive planning, evolutionary development and delivery, a time-boxed iterative approach, and encourages rapid and flexible response to change.
Rather than the long drawn out release cycles in the previously popular waterfall methodology, the agile methodology suggests regular short sprint release cycles called iteration. This allows the customers and stakeholders to have more involvement within the software development process. The iterative approach has become vastly effective in helping software developers improve their skills in estimating schedule for remaining tasks. Schedule estimation is one of the most difficult responsibilities for developers because software issues are common and are unpredictable by nature. By breaking the large requirements down into more manageable sub requirements, the agile process naturally promotes better estimation [1]. Agile methods are people-oriented rather than process-oriented, Qumer and Hender-son-Sellers [2] offer the following definition for the agility method: ‘‘A software development method is said to be an agile software development method when a method is people focused, communications-oriented, flexible (ready to adapt to expected or unexpected change at any time), speedy (encourages rapid and iterative development of the product in small releases), lean (focuses on shortening time frame and cost and on improved quality), responsive (reacts appropriately to expected and unexpected changes), and learning (focuses on improvement during and after product
With the ever rapid changing requests needed to be developed in a short period of time demanded by business today, the traditional development methodologies such as waterfall method is no longer being an option for project managers (Livermore, 2008). Hence, agile methodology is proposed to overcome this issue. In this essay, we will be discussing on the difference between agile and traditional method, the hitches faced in agile, the things to consider when adopting agile, the project management methodologies, how tools are chosen for agile development, how testing are performed in agile environment, how developers adopt this methodology and the transitions needed to move into agile methodology.
The Waterfall Model has been the ideal choice for software development. In this model, an idea become a usable software in a sequential process that cascade through the stages of Initiation, Analysis, Implementation, Testing and Maintenance. But it has some disadvantages. Agile software development evolved as a solution to the disadvantages of Waterfall model. Instead of a sequential design process, the Agile methodology follows an incremental approach.
Besides, waterfall method, the system developers have another option of adopting the Agile method of system development. Agile method derives its meaning from the superficial meaning of agile which means quick. As a result, the agile development methodology seeks to provide numerous opportunities to assess the dir...
