BBG Communications

The early history of the telephone is a confusing morass of claim and counterclaim, which was not clarified by the huge mass of lawsuits which hoped to resolve the patent claims of individuals. According to BBG Communications, the Bell and Edison patents, however, were forensically victorious and commercially decisive. Early telephones were technically diverse. Some used a liquid transmitter, some had a metal diaphragm that induced current in an electromagnet wound around a permanent magnet, and some were "dynamic" - their diaphragm vibrated a coil of wire in the field of a permanent magnet or the coil vibrated the diaphragm. This dynamic kind survived in small numbers through the 20th century in military and maritime applications where its ability to create its own electrical power was crucial. Most, however, used the Edison/Berliner carbon transmitter, which was much louder than the other kinds, even though it required an induction coil, actually acting as an impedance matching transformer to make it compatible to the impedance of the line. The Edison patents kept the Bell monopoly viable into the 20th century, by which time the network was more important than the instrument. Early telephones were locally powered, using either a dynamic transmitter or by the powering of a transmitter with a local battery. One of the jobs of outside plant personnel was to visit each telephone periodically to inspect the battery. During the 20th century, "common battery" operation came to dominate, powered by "talk battery" from the telephone exchange over the same wires that carried the voice signals. Early telephones used a single wire for the subscriber's line, with ground return used to complete the circuit. The earliest dynamic telephones also had only one opening for sound, and the user alternately listened and spoke into the same hole. Sometimes the instruments were operated in pairs at each end, making conversation more convenient but were more expensive.

I don’t want to be a teacher because I want to teach the same boring things in the same boring way, but because I was inspired. My third grade teacher, Mrs. Clemens, taught in a different way. This year was different, I was able to pay attention and I found that it was much easier to learn the material. Mrs. Clemens taught me that teachers don’t have to be boring or mean, they can make class exciting and inspiring.

Teaching is not an easy job, several essential traits are necessary. It takes talent to be able to make class interesting and inspire the students to reach their full potential. It takes creativity to be able to grab the students’ attention and to help them understand the material. It takes dedication to be able to help the students as they struggle and to be a good role model. Anyone can be a teacher, but it takes certain qualities to be a great teacher.

My dream job is to work as an elementary school teacher. I don’t just want to be any teacher, I want to be an inspiring teacher, one that has what it takes to be a truly great teacher. I have always enjoyed working with children, and teaching would give me the opportunity to combine that passion with a job. It seems that the people who excel at their jobs are the ones passionate about what they do. They are the ones that are jumping out of bed in the morning and enthusiastic about the day ahead rather than dragging themselves up and dreading the day to come. That is the kind of teacher I want to be.

For the last several years, I have volunteered at a summer camp. I volunteered to fulfill the duties of a counselor, with the only payment being the satisfaction that I have given someone a wonderful experience. I am one of the first people to volunteer to cheer up a homesick child, or befriend the child who the other kids don’t want to play with. My goal is to be an inspiration to the children, and summer camp gives me an opportunity to practice the skills that will allow me to do so. I also get the chance to practice all the skills that will make me a great teacher.

Therefore, I guess you could say my dream job isn’t to be a teacher, but to be a great teacher; one that is an inspiration and full of the creativity it takes to be truly great. Teaching is about inspiring the future of America.

In the mind of every individual there lives a group isolated from each other. The half-full glass analogy to optimism is simply complicated. The mind of every individual has three glasses. One half-full, one half-empty, and one that is being swallowed. It is clear that different people choose to look at different glasses, becoming self-proclaimed optimists, pessimists, and realists. One must have a self-proclaimed view of life or no life at all, for to have joy in something as variant as life it must be willed. The optimist is happy by choice and practice; many have chosen this path from the martyrs of old to the clergy of new. Business men and women often follow an optimistic view in order to reach their goals. The goal is irrelevant for the optimist exists in all professions and in every corner of the world. The realist follows less hopeful and cheer bounds, simply taking in life as it appears to come, an indifferent emotion crowding much of the heart’s stage. They do what is necessary to get where they want to go. Finally the pessimist consumes much of his own mind with doubts and hoping to not hope. Surviving and trying but never letting outside things attack it unexpectedly. None of these chosen mind sets can prevent a glimpse of another glass. They are the same in one a choice to take one view most of the time. It is impossible to block happiness entirely when the heart wants so badly to see it. It is also impossible to live entirely in happiness because that is not all that exists. To choose something to be happy is to look at it in that light. Cultures around the world, subcultures at least, often teach against the feeling called love. Here in America it is usually thought good to be in love, but in other cultures it only blinds judgment, such as Buddhist monasteries. Happiness is not a random act of unknown causes or lucky placement it life. Happiness it a choice only achieved through oneself and by oneself. Success is an after thought of happiness, for only in joy can one be truly successful in life.

The Internet would have to be the most important recent invention within the past fifty years. The World Wide Web isn’t just a name or cliché but a description. It describes a world of ordinary human beings being able to have the knowledge of the world, history, and day to day life in any city around the planet. There are several examples such as media, business, education, and communication. Each example is important to every person alive today or who will be alive tomorrow.

The media is a means of informing people of what’s going on in city, state, country, or world. I remember having to read the newspaper or wait for the news to come on to tell me when or why things have happened or will happen. But I only got a limited amount of reading material from one point of view when I read the paper and the news seem to come on all at once, so it’s hard to listen to the right new program and that’s if they are not talking about something not important. The internet allows everyone to look up and find out anything they want to, when they want to. The information they find can be checked with source of information they find to allow the reader to read between the lines.

Businesses nowadays do a lot of advertising, selling, and even buying over the web. They can find and contact any small business to a major corporation on any spot on the planet. Business allows governments to rise and fall, and now they have a means to search the market for the best way of making themselves money.

Students and teachers both need information vital to their research or homework. The world wide web has infinite knowledge that allows them to search and find what they’re looking for and more. They no longer have to be frustrated with libraries that don’t carry the books that they need or that had just run out, now they can just stay home.

Let’s just think about the term World Wide Web and it will become apparent on how accurate that name really is. Mass communication going simultaneously has allowed knowledge, cultures, and even ideas to spread around the world ten times over. Pen pals can now talk to each other online as if they’re on the phone; think about it, people talking to people in different continents. Cultural differences are still standing between people but because of this invention, people can hear what’s going on from people who are there. Fears of the unknown is almost unheard of, because everyone is given a chance to connect with one another. No other man made device has ever united the entire planet, like this has.

A quickly advancing science, genetics has become a job for people that want to wield power. As a fairly new science there is an unmistakable need for such people that are interested in becoming a person that can manipulate the famous double-helix of DNA.

Many years of schooling are involved in becoming an engineer in genetics; however, the schooling has a very rewarding return. When a person is able to understand the way that DNA operates the body, they understand the secret of life. Manipulating DNA in such ways to help the human race rid itself of genetic diseases and imperfections is a dream job for scientists that want to make a difference in the community. A child can be born without contracting genetic diseases such as sickle celled anemia. Such an accomplish could only make a human feel good knowing that they are truly participating in the betterment of the lives of all people. As a Genetic engineer, a person could put an end to viral diseases by creating a gene that would produce antibodies to even the most deadly of viral infections, such as AIDS; such knowledge would be wonderful.

When I become a genetic engineer, which will require a lot of scholarships, I will dedicate my life to helping mankind. Being able to manipulate and change the Human genetic code will interest me as long as it remains unsolvable. Such a job will allow me to pursue an interest that has burned in my heart since I first learned of the power that deoxyribonucleic acid. Working in a competitive field can only bring the best from a person, and since much is not understood about genetics a Nobel Prize is a possible goal. With such competition a person can only hope that they will be a person that wins the race and becomes a hero in society. Working in a lab testing and changing the lives of people and animals, and finding cures for destructive diseases would be the perfect occupation for any person that wants to enlighten themselves with the knowledge of life.

In 2055, a boy visiting a history museum might ask his parent who the person in the blue uniform carrying a bag full of envelopes is? The answer is very obvious: a mailperson, but with the invention of the computer and electronic mail that will all be made obsolete. In the last fifty years, the computer has made the greatest impact on the world in three ways: it has sped up the way people communicate through e-mail; it has created a vast public database of valuable information via the internet; and it has made written media accessible to the blind.

Writing a letter a to a friend used to comprise putting pen to paper, sealing it in an envelope, and after applying for the proper postage, waiting for the mailperson to come pick it up, which will still require about three days until one’s friend even receives the message. Now, simply by using a computer, one can type the message, send it to the correct e-mail address, and in a matter of seconds the recipient will have received the e-mail. When compared to first method, electronic communication has become real-time. Instead of the written letter becoming old news by the fastest time the United Postal Service could deliver it, an actual response to one’s emotional state at that instant can be sent and read, which has drastically changed the way people use the written word to communicate.

Another reason why the computer is such a wonderful invention is because of the creation of the internet, which has unified the entire world of computer users. Currently, anyone with a computer and an internet connection can publish his or her own work on the web and have it read by potentially the whole world. The computer truly made everyone equal in a way that before was not the norm. The cost of publishing one’s own work used to be too great due to the cost of paper, ink, and binding costs, but now it is virtually affordable for the mass majority of individuals to have their work read. This being the case, what is everyone’s novel going to be about?

Another way in which the computer has become the greatest invention in the world is its ability to allow the blind to read text through special speech programs. Usually, a blind person would have to ask someone to read his or her favorite book, but now the computer can voice the text through a voice synthesizer program, called Jaws. The computer has become an extension of our senses, in the way it has become like an eye for the blind to see printed text.

Moreover, it has extended our ability to reach out and communicate and will at increasingly faster speeds. The internet’s potential to be used as an education tool will become very common in the classroom. The computer has an endlessly infinite number of possibilities that will forever change the way we communicate, search for information, and perceive the world.

My ultimate dream job would be working as a Recording Engineer and as a Jazz Musician. I would like to work for Sony, Columbia or another major Record company and record musicians in world-renowned studios. At the same time, I wouldn’t want to give up my passion for Jazz Piano, so I would want to play at Jazz Clubs during the night. The only city that I could accomplish all of this would be New York City. This city is the central point for the entire recording industry. New York City also is one of the best jazz cities in the world. If I could have this two-fold job than I would be in the best of both worlds and wouldn’t want anything else in life. This would allow me to fully follow my passion for music.

Some people may think that music is just a hobby that will go away once I enter college, but I know in my heart this will never happen. Music is my passion and that will never change. I want to keep it in my life as best I can. Being a Recording Engineer is more about being around music than actually playing music, but being a musician makes me all the more capable for this type of work. I would be able to listen to the recordings and give the musicians tips about how to make their music better. Then at night I would play gigs, as they are called by musicians, and follow and enjoy my passion.

I believe that a dream job is not about how much money you make or how big of house you live in. It is all about doing what you love and doing it well. If you are happy with what you are doing, then you are successful. It is as simple as that. You must do what makes you feel good and nothing else will matter. As long as you include what makes you happy in your life, you succeed.

The importance of education helps a child learn and grow. A child who attends school is well on in becoming a credit to himself, family and friends. Being in school everyday prevents the negative and brings out the positive. A child does not get involved in negative activities and does not prevent crimes in the neighborhood. Education helps everyone, giving them an advantage in the workforce. Education enhances your mind, giving the expression of wanting to learn.

Getting a college degree will get me the likelihood of getting and keeping a good job. Attending college will help me realize my potential in life. Going through college will help me develop the positive influence of other black males wanting to attend college. Having a college life experience will have good ways of just wanting to learn. Being in college will give you the opportunity to meet people and join activities. Being in the college environment will give me an opportunity to expand my field of majors. Being exposed to new things will open my mind.

Attending college will provide me with excellent leverage for motivation of wanting higher education. Understanding my goals will help me consider my future purposes in life. College will give me an early experience on responsibility. Giving me a better understanding on how to maintain hard work and keep my goals. When going through with college you got to have the love of wanting to be there to have fun but also get your work done to complete school.

The importance of education will make my life easier. Attending college will give me a greater chance to get a job. Living the life having a college degree will give you an advantage in the workforce than someone who doesn’t have one.

My education is very crucial for me. Getting my education will give me the opportunity to make a difference in a child’s life. Being raised by my mother has made me into a respectful young man who is willing to work hard to earn my needs. Being able to give my kids a father who was there for them is very important to me. I am willing to do anything to make sure that I’m there for my family.

I plan on becoming nurse anesthetist, I plan to be a registered nurse with a bachelor’s degree in biophysical science, then I plan on completing a minimum 24-month training course in anesthesiology from an approved school of nurse anesthesia. After completing the training course to receive my Certification for Nurse Anesthetists to become a Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA), I plan on furthering my education to receive my PHD and open a nursing facility.

Doing something accredited with my life will make me a stronger African American male out in the work force. Thanks to my family, mentors and peers I’m an honor student who is about to graduate in the top 10% of my class and further my life in education.

 

To be quite honest, the most difficult choice I will have to make in my future will be deciding exactly what I want to do with my life. I am majoring in human biology and psychology at the University of Indianapolis, but I am not quite sure what I would like to do with those majors. A part of me wants to be a physical therapist and help those who need to get their lives back on track, but another part of me wants to enter into the field of neuroscience, since the brain and its functions have always fascinated me. I am also very interested in the field of psychology, and would love to be a professor of psychology or take part in research psychology. Learning about the human mind and why people act the way they act is an extremely interesting topic to me. I have even considered entering into the field of genetics, since nothing is more beneficial than understanding heredity and being able to detect harmful diseases early in life.

There are so many appealing jobs out there, and it is hard to choose just one that I would like to focus on for the next five to seven years. I think I will be fairly successful no matter what field of study I enter, but I also want my choice to make me truly happy. I do not want to be one of those adults who hate their jobs and dreads going to work everyday. Instead, I hope to be someone who wakes up early on Monday morning, and actually looks forward to the week ahead and the tasks that must be accomplished. It is not a significant challenge to be merely successful in one’s career, nor is it hard to be happy with it. The biggest challenge is finding a profession that allows one to be both successful and happy, and this is why selecting the right career is so crucial. Most students know exactly what they want to do by the time they enter college, but I cannot immediately limit myself to one specific career. I need to research and gain knowledge on all these different fields, so that I can select the career that will enable me to be both happy and successful.


 
 

My ultimate dream job would be to run a school for special needs children in which parents have given them up. A school where they could stay, learn, grow, and be loved. Some parents who learn that their child may be a little bit different from others may choose to give them up for adoption or send them to a home. To me, children with special needs are the most wonderful thing ever. Most are capable of learning, just a little bit slower than others. I am willing to take the time with them and give them the attention, love, and affection they need. I just want them to be with other children like them and learn that they can function normally.

I love all children and I just have a gift to work with them. Ever since I was in elementary school, I can remember going to help the special needs children and just being around them brighten up my day. I don’t know how some people could be so blind that they can’t see how wonderful those children are. Special needs children go through a lot. They get treated differently, picked on, called names, and sometimes even bullied. In the school that I will open, I will teach them how to deal with all this with confidence. I just want them to understand that even though they are a little different, they are important. They have the ability to overcome anything and live life as normal as possible without being looked down on by society.

This school will be wonderful and so filled with love. I just want to be the person they look up to and come to when they’re feeling down or feeling like they just can’t make it. I just want to make a difference in their lives.
