A leader is one who knows the way, goes the way and shows the way.   - John C. Maxwell With the power of the presidency, the world can be changed. A president must lead by example and motivate his people. Presidential power would overwhelm most, but not me. I know exactly what I would change to make the world a better place. To begin with, I would work to make our country safer. I would do this by enforcing and increasing the severity of laws against offenses such as murder and drunk driving to increase the safety of our children. I would hire more police officers and security personnel. By increasing security in the country, we can maintain a safer setting for us all. In addition, I would make our country a more environmentally friendly one. I would accomplish this by encouraging the use of alternative fuel sources such as wind, solar, geothermal and water to save our planet from pollution. I would establish tax credits to develop environmentally friendly energy sources...

Immersed in cell phones, ear-phones on the ear, engrossed in reading a recent tweet or up-date, hypnotized by the spell of smart-phones, unconscious from their next-door neighbor, extrinsically pleasant but intrinsically exhausted, frustrated, worn out and fatigued, I find zombies everywhere, technological zombies. If I go twenty years back, I feel like that we were quite happy when the phone was only an instrument, a call making or text receiving the instrument. But in the modern age, it seems that our young generation is hardly unaware about “phone” existing in their smart-phones. We are not just mortified by smartphones; rather there are tabs, palmtops, and many other electronic devices. To greet birthdays, marriages, the momentous events physical visit was considered pivotal. Each rendezvous used to result in strengthened family bonds, fastened relationships, and shortened spiritual distance. There was no sensation of alienation and loneliness. We were sure of having people sid...

All education should be free to all people and paid for the government. This statement has caused great controversy over past decades. On the one hand, it should be free since there are poor who are smart, intelligent and capable, yet the states provide no education for them. How would you feel knowing that your life is never going to get better because you don’t have the opportunity? Another argument is economic development. Finishing school and pursuing a career will allow you to get a higher standard of living hence economic development. The last argument for free education is economic growth. If everyone gets a well-paid job, they will contribute to society by becoming taxpayers. The state will be capable of improving the country. On the other hand, it shouldn’t be free as the tax would need to increase to provide free education and not many people are pleased with the idea. However, if the tax doesn’t increase, we will get a mediocre education. This is seen in Peru wh...

Almost 100% of the observed temperature increase over the last 50 years has been due to the increase in the atmosphere of greenhouse gas concentrations like water vapor, carbon dioxide (CO 2 ), methane and ozone. Greenhouse gases are those gases that contribute to the greenhouse effect. The largest contributing source of greenhouse gas is the burning of fossil fuels leading to the emission of carbon dioxide. When sunlight reaches Earth's surface some is absorbed and warms the earth and most of the rest is radiated back to the atmosphere at a longer wavelength than the sunlight. Some of these longer wavelengths are absorbed by greenhouse gases in the atmosphere before they are lost to space. The absorption of this longwave radiant energy warms the atmosphere. These greenhouse gases act like a mirror and reflect back to the Earth some of the heat energy which would otherwise be lost to space. The reflecting back of heat energy by the atmosphere is called the "greenhouse effec...

“The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page. “- St. Agustine   The End-year Holidays before my senior year in high school starts, I went on a vacation with my family to Japan. We departed from Kuala Lumpur International Airport, Kuala Lumpur and arrived at Kansai International Airport, Osaka at 6 o’clock in the morning. The flight took 450 minutes to arrive at the destination. The first place we visited was Nara, Kyoto. Nara is second only to Kyoto as the richest collection of traditional sites in Japan. Nara is home to some of the country’s best temples and shrines, along with several fine gardens, museums, and traditional neighborhoods. Nara is a compact city packed with first-rate sights, including the famous Daibutsu (Great Buddha) at Todai-Ji Temple, Kasuga-Taisha Shrine, and Nara-Koen Park, with its famous semi-wild deer. Well, I liked Nara-Koen Park the most. The park was very breathtaking. Nara-Koen Park is lined with pleasant pathways and do...
