Introduction

Uber entered and revolutionized the taxi industry in few years. The contemporary concepts of ride share, private and luxury cars, convenience of smartphones to request a ride all were enough to shook up the taxi industry that has been monotones forever. However most of its “first times” standards were appreciated and adapted by some competitors too, but the pricing model of Uber has been under constant criticism from authorities and customers.
This paper discusses the concept of Uber’s pricing model as it relates to the core business of the Continue reading...

In the story of old customs, Meng’s mother in law could be right by beating her up. Just as their village is remote and behind by all activities and customs, so is her mother in law behind (pg 110). I think that Meng’s problems were not only those from her family and relationships with her in-laws, but the mother in law was also a strong talker. This mother in law must have influenced her son on how to treat the wife. The customs were not only the ones that made Meng’s life difficult but also her Continue reading...

What did you learn? What is your reaction to the movie?

Through the reading and movie, I have learned the sea life is under great threat and some sea species may become extinct due to overfishing, destruction of marine environment due to deep sea mining and hunting of some species such the dolphins to keep them in the park or use them as food.

The dolphins are in the verge of becoming extinct such Continue reading...

Education is a means used by the society to teach a person to survive, and education has long become the aid to the family, community and other social groups in teaching a person to behave in a certain desired way that is, in turn, reinforcing these social groups in their conditioning attempts. Education primarily aims at forming a certain pattern of behavior that will be used by a person in the real world, where the consequences he or she meets will most likely be non-educational. Without developing such behavior education has no value, as the student needs to become Continue reading...

Social Barriers Affecting the Disabled

There are inherently social barriers present in this world against people with disabilities – both physical and mental. Even though we have come a long way since the days when people with disabilities were considered good for nothing, there is still a lot to do to actually help the disabled become a part of society. “Employers and owners are now readily accepting that people with disabilities are good at certain kinds of jobs and in some cases – better than able people. They are also accepting that sometimes, a person’s disability does not affect the job at hand.”( Continue reading...

Tagore is widely considered a 19th Century Bengal child, of Calcutta. It is in this place that the key economic, political, and cultural features of contemporary India trace back to. In most cases, he shifted from one religion to the other. For instance, initially, he attends his father’s church (puritanical Brahmo), but latter concerts to Hindu revivalism that characterized the end of the 19th century. However, his dad managed to appoint him as the Adi Brahmo Samaj secretary. Owing to this position, he composed various songs. Regardless, he moved from Hinduism and primarily focused on poetry which he Continue reading...

Lamia’s ‘Microfinance and its discontents: Women in debt in Bangladesh’ analyzes various issues that arise in the development of the finance industry in the region. Through the book, Lamia gives her views about the role of microfinance in Bangladesh. Despite this, it is fair enough to comment that the argument she puts across is one-sided. Clearly, Lamia fails to acknowledge the various benefits of microfinance. By taking sides, Lamia fails to give a neutral perspective of microfinance, leading to readers questioning the integrity and the validity of the book as a good source of information. The approach that Continue reading...

Android is an example of a product that has a well designed interface. Although it is considered Continue reading...

The narrative includes significant information about the abuse of slavery and the struggle Continue reading...

Karl Marx writes extensively about idea of capitalism and what it has meant for the plethora of people who have not benefited from the system. During Marx’s time, the western world was, by and large, capitalistic; the systems were unrestrained and had no checks and balances in place to ensure that the actors in the system were acting morally (Tucker). Essentially, the capitalistic system was a free for all, and actors in the system were free to oppress people as they saw fit to make a profit (Tucker). It was this inequality that Marx tried to address in Continue reading...
