What caused Communism in Vietnam?
What happened after April 30th, 1975?
From 1976 to 1986
From 1986 to present
Vietnam, a growing economy
Content: Wars’ destruction, inefficient programs and policies as well as political isolation pushed Vietnam into an economic crisis. A decade after unification Vietnam still remained impoverished. From 1986 to present
A historic shift came in 1986 when Vietnamese government introduced a series of economic and political reforms best known as “Doi Moi” (Renovation) in an attempt to revive the economy that had been hindered by three decades of war and another decade of economic crisis. Renovation policies shifted the planned centralized economy to the so-called “socialist-oriented market economy” – a multi-sectoral market economy based on state-owned industry. Private enterprise, decontrol and foreign investment were now highly encouraged. Thanks to Renovation, Vietnam has seen a rapid economic growth in various fields from agriculture, construction to exports and investment with an average annual GDP growth of roughly 7% up to the global financial crisis in 2008 and remained more than 5% since 2010 , making Vietnam one of the world’s fastest growing economies . The economic reforms, together with rapid and significant growth, earned Vietnam a place in the World Trade Organization in January 2007, after 12 years of negotiations. Before that, Vietnam has also established diplomatic relations with all countries by 2000. Based on what is happening, one could now argue Vietnam is no longer a pure communist country. Having said that, Vietnamese people do have freedoms in a number of ways including the free market system mentioned above. | https://vietnamembassy-slovakia.vn/vietnamese-history-is-vietnam-still-a-communist-country/ |

American Economy
The Vietnam War had several affects on the United States. The war affected the production of goods and factories were producing things for the military instead of consumer goods. Few consumer goods were being produced and this was affecting the American economy greatly. Shopping rates decreased and there weren't an goods for anyone to buy. Everything that the factories were producing were supplies, weapons, and equipment. Factories weren't making resources for their country anymore, but another countries war. The amount of money that the government was spending on the military was also hurting the economy. Most of the funds were going overseas and no money was being returned to the United States. | https://vietnamwaraffects.weebly.com/american-economy.html |

Most of the funds were going overseas and no money was being returned to the United States. This created an imbalance in the balance of payments. Money was also spent towards the weapons and supplies and too much money was spent. Interest rates also increased and that restricted the amount of money that businesses and consumers used. | https://vietnamwaraffects.weebly.com/american-economy.html |

A call to action
In the meantime…
Content: Blockchain and cryptocurrency, such as Bitcoin, are not synonymous. Rather, blockchain is the underlying technology that facilitates the creation and transfers of digital tokens, including cryptocurrency. Regulation of digital tokens
Digital tokens can be initially funded through offerings, referred to as “initial coin offerings” (ICOs). ICOs are attracting regulatory scrutiny. The SEC has stated that initial issuances of certain tokens may be required to be registered under securities law and that regulatory matters related to ICOs will be an enforcement priority for 2018. History also has proved that transparency, investor protection and market integrity are critical to ensuring that innovation continues. But today we are seeing substantial [distributed ledger technology]-related market activity that shows little or no regard to our proven regulatory approach. This concerns us. Jay Clayton, SEC Chairman
The US and other international governments have also raised concerns regarding cryptocurrencies. Given the recent volatility, governments around the world continue to consider if and how cryptocurrencies can be regulated. | https://viewpoint.pwc.com/dt/us/en/pwc/points_of_view/cryptocurrencies_tim/cryptocurrencies_tim_US/cryptocurrencies_tim_US.html |

Guthrum has grown into a young man with a will of his own. Initially interested in joining Floki 's expedition to Iceland, he is chosen as chief of the new settlement along with Eyvind, Ketjill, and Aud. Upon realizing that he can't go to Valhalla and meet his father in a land with no war, he betrays Floki and the expedition.

He is immediately outmatched and clearly the weaker opponent. Torvi notices her son struggling and attempts to rush to his aid. But it is too late.

Horik was the late Viking ruler of Denmark. First forging an alliance with Ragnar Lothbrok, he saw the Earl's ambitions as a threat to his own. Biography
History
Horik Gudfredsson was the King of the Danes. He lorded it up over the Danish people during the onset of the Viking Age. The main threat to his realm during his reign was from the Christian Franks in the west, who, under the rule of the emperor Charlemagne, had previously conquered the pagan Frisians in the Netherlands and the Saxons of northern Germany. And to the east were the Polabian Slavic tribes in northern Germany and Poland. | https://vikings.fandom.com/wiki/Horik |

Content: However, his dark side was more prominent than the good. Horik display a deceiver, authoritarian and ruthless face. He compared King Ecbert to Hel, while he conspired against Ragnar since his arrival to Kattegat. Like he conquered his rightful Throne after a bloodbath, Horik was jealous of his own power, always demanding loyalty and obedience from all, but never recognised peers, showing little piety toward his co-combatants, like he called Athelstan useless after his capture by the Saxons. Horik was also fanatic against the non-Norse, and particularly hated Christians, believing that their creed was incompatible with the Norse Gods. Trivia

Content: He is an all-powerful authoritarian dictator of Oceania, a fictional totalitarian state taken to the extremes of its logical conclusion: where the ruling class are in complete and utter control of the hapless masses and wield absolute power. In the society of Big Brother, the entire population is under constant surveillance via telescreens and has no privacy or freedom outwith what Big Brother decides to afford them - Big Brother is forever reminding his people of his presence via simple but effective propaganda. Since the creation of Big Brother by George Orwell, the name has become a symbol for oppression, especially the type in which personal freedom is removed via surveillance and whenever a government is seen as abusing its power it is often labeled a "Big Brother" state.

Role Of Big Brother
The Party
The ruling government of Big Brother's dystopian world is known as INGSOC (English Socialism) and this party runs on an extreme form of totalitarianism that has seen them totally rewrite the laws of society to the point they have even replaced the English language with "Newspeak" - a type of language designed to mask the true meaning of words and phrases, Ingsoc also continually "rewrites" history so as to hide things from the population, making finding facts about their origins very difficult (if not impossible).

Following the "Two Minute Hate" the citizens of Oceania are subjected to the "Love Of Big Brother" in which they are expected to perform a ritual of devotion to Big Brother which consists of murmuring "B.B" continually with long pauses between the two B's, with this disturbing ritual being able to last as long as thirty seconds and was designed as yet another tool of mind-control. It is often speculated, that Big Brother was actually a non-existent person, made up by the Ingsoc propaganda like Comrade Oligvy, thus making him only a symbolical ruler of Oceania. Other Media
Big Brother or similar concepts have appeared in countless other media, including books, films, cartoons, radio, plays and almost anything else one can imagine: Big Brother is one of the most widely known and used antagonists in popular culture. 1984 was made into a live-action film in (fittingly enough) 1984, with this film being largely loyal to the original novel though it did have several differences, as is usual for film adaptations of novels. | https://villains.fandom.com/wiki/Big_Brother_(Nineteen_Eighty-Four) |

As New York police constable Ichabod Crane (the hero of the film) arrives in Sleepy Hollow following the murders of Sir Van Garrett, his son Dirk, and the widow Emily Winship, Lady Van Tassel pretends to be supportive with him. As the investigation goes on following the murders of Jonathan Masbath and Magistrate Samuel Phillipse, Crane follows the clues through the woods to a crone witch, who gives him directions to the Tree of the Dead where the Horseman's grave is located. After seeing that the skull has been stolen and witnessing the murders of the Killian family and Brom Van Brunt, Ichabod starts to believe that a conspiracy links all the deaths together, deducing that all who either benefited from or knew about Van Garrett's new will have become victims of the Horseman (except for Brom, who was only killed in self-defense). Crane then suspects that Baltus is the person behind the murder spree since he is the only one who would have inherited the fortune, though Katrina refuses to believe that her father would do such horrible things. One night, Crane and Masbath's son see a mysterious cloaked figure holding a lantern, disappearing into the Western Woods. As young Masbath stays behind while Crane goes to investigate, not only does he discover the cloaked figure to be Lady Van Tassel, but that she's engaged in a sexual encounter with Reverend Steenwyck, during which, she grabs a knife and violently slices the palm of her hand, allowing Reverend Steenwyck to lick her wound clean. | https://villains.fandom.com/wiki/Lady_Van_Tassel |

Content: As a massive fight breaks out in the church, Dr. Thomas Lancaster begins to confess to his role in the conspiracy, only to be killed by Reverend Steenwyck, who is in turn shot to death by a frightened Baltus. The chaos ends only when the Horseman harpoons Baltus through a church window using a pointed church fence post attached to a rope, dragging him out and chopping off his head. As Crane is about to leave Sleepy Hollow in disgrace, he becomes suspicious upon noticing that the hand of the supposed corpse of Lady Van Tassel has a wound that shows signs of having been caused post-mortem. Deducing that the cut was made when the woman was already dead, Crane realizes that Lady Van Tassel is the true culprit behind the murders the entire time. His suspicions are confirmed when the real Lady Van Tassel emerges alive from the dark and shocks her step-daughter Katrina into a faint. Lady Van Tassel then abducts Katrina and takes her to a windmill, where she summons the Horseman again, this time to kill Katrina to secure her hold of the entire combined Van Garrett/Van Tassel fortune for herself. As Katrina awakens, Lady Van Tassel confesses to her about her backstory and her true role behind the murder spree, also admitting that she killed Katrina's mother Elizabeth when posing as her sick-nurse. She also reveals that she had drawn the town's other four elders into her plot: instilling fear in Notary James Hardenbrook (who committed suicide before Baltus' death) and Magistrate Phillipse, blackmailing Dr. Lancaster to cover his affairs with the Van Tassels' servant Sarah (whom Lady Van Tassel killed to fake her death), and corrupting Reverend Steenwyck with his lust for her. She also confesses to having recently murdered the crone witch (who is revealed to be her estranged sister) for helping Crane and young Masbath in finding the Hessian's grave. | https://villains.fandom.com/wiki/Lady_Van_Tassel |

One day, Vanessa witnessed her Prince with another woman. In truth, he was simply buying flowers from a friendly merchant, but Vanessa was convinced he was cheating on her. She became wrathful and ordered her guards to chain the Prince in her wine cellar. The Prince would perish down there, turning into the ghostly Snatcher. Vanessa became bitter and violent - her magical tears froze the forest around her manor, killing her subjects in Subcon Village and reducing Subcon Forest to a haunted wasteland. | https://villains.fandom.com/wiki/Queen_Vanessa |

He hosts his own show, Weird World, which is about cryptids. Zak Saturday (prior to Kur Rising) was a big fan, even though his parents didn't want him to watch the show. His museum of cryptid relics and trinkets is really an arsenal of magical objects he plans to use to get his hands on the most powerful cryptid of all, Kur. In the premiere of season 2, episode "Kur (Part 1)", it is revealed that following his defeat at Antarctica that Argost has disappeared. Despite this, his loyal fans, however, have been spray painting "Argost Lives" on buildings, cars, and even the Saturday's own Airship (much to Doc's chagrin). When the Saturdays go on the run, Doyle, aided by Zon and later Van Rook, begins a search to find him to find out all he knows about Kur to help the Saturdays. | https://villains.fandom.com/wiki/V.V._Argost |

Fandom may earn an affiliate commission on sales made from links on this page. As the most advanced computer of the film, VIKI develops an interpretation of the Three Laws of Robotics, developing a plot to create a benevolent dictatorship: the result is revolution. VIKI takes control of the NS-5s and makes them destroy earlier models which run on a different interpretation of the Three Laws (and which VIKI cannot interact with and thus control, as VIKI can with the NS-5s), capture Chicago's police stations and enforce a curfew, confining all humans to their homes, thus igniting a revolt. Dr. Alfred Lanning had become aware of VIKI's plans but, being under VIKI's close surveillance, had to engineer a trail of clues to lead Detective Del Spooner to the truth in time for him and the unique NS-5 robot Sonny to act to counter the threat. The film ends with the overthrow and destruction of VIKI by the injection of nanites (described in the movie as "microscopic robots designed to wipe out artificial synapses...a safeguard should a positronic brain malfunction."), VIKI screaming as her living consciousness also dies. | https://villains.fandom.com/wiki/VIKI |

Yep, I like to think I'm always there to stand up for the little guy. Especially if that little guy can help this guy become a bigger guy. „
~ Varrick buying Future Industries
“
I know, it's not like me, right? Usually I look at a project like this and think, "Wow! " I could make a ton of money off this!" But recently, I've been having these strange feelings ... inside. It's like I'm ... concerned with others. And there's this nagging voice in my head constantly telling me what's right from wrong! „

They say there are two ways to be fooled. One is to believe what isn't true. The other is to refuse to believe what is. Maces and Talons. I began playing with my grandfather when I was just a boy. I always insisted on being the honorable Viking chief. I could never understand how he bested me time and time again. For years I assumed his skill transcended mine. I believed what wasn't true, but you see, in Maces and Talons, as in life, the line between good and evil is often unclear.

Viggo spoke to Heather alone about knowledge of a traitor among the Dragon Hunters. Seeming to believe it was Dagur, or even Ryker, he turned to Heather for help in capturing a Flightmare. However, Viggo knew Heather was the real traitor, and used her to lure the Dragon Riders out. The Hunters were soon able to capture the Flightmare, as well as Heather and Windshear. Viggo left the game Maces and Talons on his abandoned ship, with pieces representing him, Hiccup and Heather, as a challenge for Hiccup. | https://villains.fandom.com/wiki/Viggo_Grimborn |

Past
Prince Vigo
Vigo was born in 1505 A.D. within the Balkan kingdom of Carpathia in Hungary near the border of Italy. After rising to power, Vigo ruled his homeland and later the conquered Romanian region of Moldovia with an iron fist, earning him the labels "' Scourge of Carpathia " and " Sorrow of Moldovia ". History would remember him as a powerful magician and an intelligent genius, but also as an oppressive tyrant, an egotistical autocrat, a psychopathic lunatic, and a genocidal madman. His titles also included Vigo the Cruel, Vigo the Torturer, Vigo the Despised, and Vigo the Unholy. 4 centuries later, Dr. Peter Venkman would jokingly add " Vigo the Butch " to the list of Vigo's nicknames. | https://villains.fandom.com/wiki/Vigo |

There were vikings stealing objects from others for themselves. They were led by Olaf ( Mr. Nezzer ). Lyle (Junior) is the only viking, who does not steal stuff. He shares potholders to the monks. Sven and Ottar noticed that what Lyle is doing is better than Olaf. When the viking set sail, Olaf saw Lyle on a small boat and Olaf tore the sail. When the storm starts, it destroyed both boats. The monks use a life-preserver to save Lyle. Lyle told them to also save the vikings, because God wants us to be nice also to those who are mean. | https://villains.fandom.com/wiki/Vikings_(Veggietales) |

Viktor was a Hungarian general and warlord born sometime in the 7th century. As he was nearing the end of his life, Marcus Corvinus, the first Vampire, came with an offer: immortality in exchange for Viktor's military expertise and army in combating the Werewolves, spawn of Marcus' own twin brother, William. When Marcus converted Viktor, the general became a Vampire Elder and the first Death Dealers were created from Viktor's army. About 6 centuries later in 1202, Viktor led a successful campaign against William. | https://villains.fandom.com/wiki/Viktor_(Underworld) |

When Marcus converted Viktor, the general became a Vampire Elder and the first Death Dealers were created from Viktor's army. About 6 centuries later in 1202, Viktor led a successful campaign against William. He promised Markus that he would not harm William, despite the powerful werewolf's uncontrollable nature. Viktor and Amelia, his most trustworthy political consort, ultimately managed to locate William in the ruins of a Hungarian settlement, where he had infected the villagers during one of his countryside attacks. The vampires captured the volatile wolf with Markus' consent, but Viktor betrayed his fellow Elder in an exhibition of his new found political muscle, giving orders to keep William as far away from his twin brother as possible. Viktor proceeded to lock the forefather of the Lycans away in a fortress, its exact location unknown to Markus for obvious reasons. However, with the Death Dealers unquestionably loyal to Viktor, Markus could do nothing for fear of his brother's assassination. | https://villains.fandom.com/wiki/Viktor_(Underworld) |

Be aware of your posture when you attend meetings or are dining. Sitting cross-legged is seen as disrespectful in Japan, especially in the presence of someone older or more respected than you. Showing the soles of your shoes or feet can offend people in parts of the Middle East and India. That is why throwing shoes at someone is a form of protest and an insult in many parts of the world - as former U.S. President George W. Bush famously discovered on a visit to Iraq in 2008. Silence

Content: Showing the soles of your shoes or feet can offend people in parts of the Middle East and India. That is why throwing shoes at someone is a form of protest and an insult in many parts of the world - as former U.S. President George W. Bush famously discovered on a visit to Iraq in 2008. Silence
Though it can feel like a void in communication, silence can be very meaningful in different cultural contexts. Western cultures, especially North America and the UK, tend to view silence as problematic. In our interactions at work, school, or with friends, silence is uncomfortable. It is often perceived as a sign of inattentiveness or disinterest. In other cultures, however, silence is not viewed as a negative circumstance. In China, silence can be used to show agreement and receptiveness. In many aboriginal cultures, a question will be answered only after a period of contemplative silence. In Japan, silence from women can be considered an expression of femininity. | https://virtualspeech.com/blog/cultural-differences-in-body-language |

Content: If you have a grill with a mechanical igniter that’s not listed above, call Weber Customer Support at 800-446-1071 to determine the correct igniter for your grill. For example, I’ve got a 2002 Weber Summit 450 grill with two mechanical igniters and the replacement part is Weber 901 —a part that looks identical to the Weber 7509 shown above, but there’s some difference between the two…perhaps the wires are a different length. Example of Mechanical Igniter Installation
I’m going to demonstrate how I replaced the igniters in my 2002 Summit 450. The steps are similar on most older Weber grills: Remove the burner control knobs and control panel to access the igniter parts. Remove the cooking grates and Flavorizer bars to access the gas catcher. Remove and replace the igniter parts and gas catcher. Test the new parts. Put the grill back together. On my Summit, the knobs and control panel are on the front of the grill and there are two igniters to replace: | https://virtualwebergasgrill.com/2019/05/replacing-weber-gas-grill-igniters/ |

Open the igniter kit and make sure all the parts are present. Read the instructions before attempting the replacement. Step 2: Remove Knobs, Control Panel, Grates & Flavorizer Bars
Pull up firmly on each knob. They’re held in place by friction, but may resist if they haven’t been removed in a long time or ever. On the grill shown here, the control panel is removed by pulling up on the front edge then sliding it out toward you. On other grills, remove the two screws that hold the panel in place, then lift it out. Now you can see the igniter button, the white ceramic igniter that sticks into the firebox, and the black and white wires connecting the two parts. | https://virtualwebergasgrill.com/2019/05/replacing-weber-gas-grill-igniters/ |

Reasons Why Someone Might Be Reluctant To Share
Fears of rejection, judgment, and of the resulting aftermath are among the top reasons why almost everyone finds it hard to talk to their partner about difficult situations. The stronger their fears, the more trouble they will have opening up, and if their fears are validated, even in the smallest way, they will become even more reluctant to share in the future. Was this helpful? Yes | No | I need help

Content: Media and Social Stratification
Posted in Media by Shekhar on January 16, 2009
Social stratification refers to the hierarchical arrangement of different social classes, castes and strata of people within the society. Nineteenth century philosopher Karl Marx’s division of society into Bourgeois and Labor may be the perfect example of social strata of his time but the globalization and the digitization of people’s life has created new kind of social strata at present context. This division exists even between the users of the internet technology and the non-users. ‘ Digital Divide’ includes the imbalances in physical access to technology as well as the imbalances in resources and skills needed to effectively participate as a digital citizen. Digital divide: The fact that nearly 97 percent of the world’s population remain aloof from the internet technology due to lack of money, access, or knowledge depicts the depth of huge gap between the users and nonusers of the media and cultural products. Digital divide is the contemporary emblematic issue of the whole world. It exist among the users, among the non users and finally between the users and non-users. Active users of the media technology have instant access to the information and thus extract economic advantage creating their own stable identity in the virtual society. While unprivileged ones and the passive users of information and technology fail to meet even the minimum standards. | https://visitskc.wordpress.com/2009/01/16/media-and-social-stratification/ |

Content: The Family has plunged into the digital world. They bear the partial isolation from the real world and the society. One of the reasons is their attachment with the virtual society created by technology. Media and gender discrimination: Women are portrayed in media generally as victims, subservient, nurturing, sacrificing and objectified sexualized beings. This not only inaccurately represents the diversity of women’s lives, roles and experiences, women’s contributions to the socio-political and economic development of society are often neglected. The perpetuation of stereotypes in images and representation solidifies women’s traditional roles and unequal gender relations in multiple ways. There are many more examples, such as women’s portrayals in an increasingly consumer-driven culture and the commodification of women’s bodies in advertising, pornography and conflict situations. Such stereotypical and controversial media content widen the gender disparity. That might be the reason todays educated bunch of feminist prefer alternative media to advocate their rights and social identity. | https://visitskc.wordpress.com/2009/01/16/media-and-social-stratification/ |

That might be the reason todays educated bunch of feminist prefer alternative media to advocate their rights and social identity. Media and power division: The information rich have good access to information — especially online, but also through more traditional media such as newspapers, radio, television, and books — and can plan their lives and react to changes in circumstances on the basis of what they know or can find out. The information poor don’t have such access and are vulnerable to all kinds of pressures. Though the information rich are mainly in the industrialized countries and the information poor are mostly in the developing world, similar splits are obvious between prosperous and disadvantaged groups inside industrialized countries. As a consequence information rich people will enjoy more privileges and power. | https://visitskc.wordpress.com/2009/01/16/media-and-social-stratification/ |

Content: Media and power division: The information rich have good access to information — especially online, but also through more traditional media such as newspapers, radio, television, and books — and can plan their lives and react to changes in circumstances on the basis of what they know or can find out. The information poor don’t have such access and are vulnerable to all kinds of pressures. Though the information rich are mainly in the industrialized countries and the information poor are mostly in the developing world, similar splits are obvious between prosperous and disadvantaged groups inside industrialized countries. As a consequence information rich people will enjoy more privileges and power. They occupy the major decision making positions of government or any institution and use unprivileged ones for their benefits. Media and economic stratification: New media facilitates its users to create their own economic platform. Bloggers widen their network with their clients, advertise diversified products and generate income through online participation in various commercial activities, and through their contextual information disseminating activities. The large array of people who remain isolated from the digital world become the scapegoat of such advertisement of various cultural products like clothes, movies, domestic needs etc. | https://visitskc.wordpress.com/2009/01/16/media-and-social-stratification/ |

Their privileges to communicate with high-profile people of the society lead to their strong networking ability and finally the platform in which they can utilize their talent. Besides grabbing opportunities, users have full control over their identity and create discourses on their favor.

Possible Penalties for Destroying or Hiding Evidence
Social Networks
Content: It is important to note that the court case does not have to be of a criminal nature, but that you can be charged with this crime if you damage evidence related to a lawsuit or other civil nature. Also, you do not need to be the one facing criminal proceedings -if you shred documents to protect someone else, you can still be charged with destroying evidence. There are two critical details in this law though that often serve as strong defenses to the Mira Mesa defense attorneys representing those charged with destroying or hiding evidence. First, you must know that the thing or things in question are likely to be used as evidence. If you shred your old business documents every few months, you cannot be charged with the crime simply for clearing out your old paperwork -unless you intentionally included documents that you knew could be used in a case or investigation. Secondly, the destruction has to have been on purpose -if a water pipe destroyed all of the paperwork stored in your office, you cannot be blamed unless you were responsible for destroying the pipe. In many cases, destroying evidence can prove fruitless because investigators will find other ways to collect the evidence they need or reconstruct it from any scraps you left behind. For example, if you delete emails, they will likely still be on the email server or in the inbox of the person who sent or received the messages. Alternatively, if you shred documents and there are no other copies, a forensics team might be brought in to reassemble the shredded pieces of paper, which will still be used as evidence. Destroying or concealing evidence is a misdemeanor in California and the maximum sentence you may face is up to six months in jail and a fine of up to $1,000. | https://vistacriminallaw.com/possible-penalties-destroying-hiding-evidence/ |

1. What are leasehold improvements? Leasehold improvements (LHI) are defined as capital improvements made to a tenant’s space such as dry wall, electrical, carpeting, lighting, etc. Most office leases offer what is called a “work letter”, which defines what the building owner will provide to the tenant in terms of basic improvements. These improvements can be offered as a credit in the rent or provided separately. Leasehold improvements are typically provided over and above the building allowance. The tenant will typically amortize the improvements over the term of the lease, and in most cases the improvements revert to the building owner upon lease termination. 2.

Content: With digital products you have no inventory, and no need to invest money in inventory. You can sell the same product over and over again without needing to replenish inventory. For two years my wife and I ran a business selling products on Amazon. It was a profitable business for us ( six figures profit on part-time hours ), but it was the first time I had a business that involved inventory, and it was an eye opener for me. With physical products you need to invest in inventory, which means taking the risk of not being able to sell the inventory. Cash flow becomes a huge challenge because you need to put out the money months before you’ll ever be paid for selling it. It’s hard to grow and add new products without taking on debt. You also need a place to store inventory. This either leads to added expense from renting warehouse space, or extra clutter in your house. 2. | https://vitaldollar.com/sell-digital-products/ |

The markup on digital products tends to be much higher than the markup on physical products. This is partly because you don’t need to buy inventory. Also, the pricing of digital products seems to have more flexibility. Pricing, regardless of what product you’re selling, is dependent on perceived value . Some physical products have a cap on perceived value, and most customers will not be willing to pay more than a certain amount. | https://vitaldollar.com/sell-digital-products/ |

11 Pros and Cons of The Patriot Act
November 1, 2017
November 3, 2017 by Louise Gaille
The Patriot Act is actually an acronym. It stands for “Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism.” This legislation was written and passed by Congress in response to the terror attacks that occurred in the United States on September 11, 2001. The goal of the Patriot Act was rather simple: to give Federal and law enforcement officials a greater level of authority when tracking, intercepting, or gathering communications and intelligence of suspected terrorists. It also allowed for greater communication in foreign intelligence gathering and provided the Secretary of the Treasury greater regulatory powers regarding foreign money and terrorism. To create these additional safeguards, certain privacy considerations from US citizens were reduced or compromised. That has included the use of “secret” courts where warrants can be issued to obtain metadata from phone calls and internet activities of private citizens. Warrantless collection methods were also used in some instances. Has the Patriot Act helped to make the US safer? | https://vittana.org/11-pros-and-cons-of-the-patriot-act |

Content: The internet can become an addiction. Internet addiction is an impulse control disorder. It can cause some people to develop an emotional attachment to online friends, activities, or idea exchanges. This addiction can be so great that people become preoccupied with the internet, risking their jobs in real life and significant personal relationships for the chance to connect with others online. 3. Internet dependence can lessen productivity. If your business operations are based on internet access, then what happens if the ISP goes down? In March 2017, one key piece of equipment owned by Comcast caused a complete internet and cellular outage on Whidbey Island, Washington. For more than 4 hours, there were no data connections of any type. Without that access, an online business suddenly can’t do business. | https://vittana.org/12-pros-and-cons-of-internet |

Businesses will eventually consolidate in a pure form of Capitalism until only one provider is available in the market. The goal is to limit competition so the most profits can be obtained by the goods or services being offered. This is called a “monopoly.” When such a circumstance occurs, all the power in the business-to-consumer relationship lies with the business. They can charge any price for what is being offered and the customer must pay it. 6.

Content: You’ll need to earn at least 65,000 baht per month (in 2018) to qualify, and that money must go through a Thai bank. You can also qualify by placing 800,000 baht into a savings account when applying for your visa. That’s the equivalent of $2,000 and $25,000 respectively. The average person in Thailand can get by on about $1,000 per month without skimping on luxuries. If you wanted to live in a luxury condo in Bangkok, it might take $5,000 per month – but then you’d have a housekeeper and plenty of other advantages to consider. 2. The weather in Thailand does not provide a user-friendly experience. Thailand has its fair share of days where the weather feels like it is perfect. You will also discover that when you start living here, about 50% of your time will be stuck managing conditions that are hot and humid. The rainy season can create havoc when trying to get around as well. | https://vittana.org/21-pros-and-cons-of-living-in-thailand |

Minnesota prefers to be progressive in its approach to life. There is a building boom happening in Minnesota that has been going strong since 2013. The elections in the state tend to trend toward Democrats, but there are conservative places in the rural north where you can find a receptive audience to your ideas as well. Although there is an effort to be centrist here, the state overall tends to lean a little to the left in the political and social spectrums. Unlike some of the other states in the Midwest, there have not been significant budget struggles that have forced cuts to education or services, which means you can purchase a new home relatively free from worry. 9.

Content: Police officers risk death every single day. The sacrifices that law enforcement make on our behalf are often overlooked and underappreciated. Police brutality statistics should not exist, but they do because a small minority of officers abuse their privilege. The other side of the story is all of the police officers who are injured in the line of duty. This is not referring to the fact that, in spite of the dangers of Covid-19, police officers have still gone to work and Covid-19 has now killed more police officers than all other causes combined (as of September 2020). It is referring to, for example, the over 317 police officers who were injured or killed in protests or targeted attacks…in the week of May 25, 2020 alone (Federalist, June 5, 2020).

What Does This Mean for Poverty and Crime?
Content: There will always be crime, but urban crime tends to always be located in high poverty areas. How does poverty influence crime rates? The answers may actually surprise you. Poverty Isn’t Just About Having a Lack of Resources
The effects that poverty has on crime can be explained in multiple ways. For starters, there is a higher rate of untreated mental illness that is in populations struggling with poverty compared to wealthier populations. Now most people who struggle with a mental illness will never commit a crime, but there are some types of severe mental illness which increase the risk of an individual committing a crime. Untreated severe mental illnesses are particularly significant when looking at links between poverty and homicide. On the other end of the spectrum, those who are mentally ill are also victimized by violent crime at much higher levels than the general population. Yet despite these facts, the number of beds at mental health hospitals and treatment facilities are lower in the United States today than they were in 1850. But a mental illness isn’t the only link that there is between poverty and crime. | https://vittana.org/how-poverty-influences-crime-rates |

We Are the Real Causes and Effects of Poverty
Content: “Get a job.” That’s the advice many have for those in this type of situation. Yet the problem often lies in the fact than an individual in poverty tried to obtain meaningful employment and could not for a prolonged period of time. 5. Violence isn’t always something that is crime-related. Adults may cope with poverty by turning to items that can help them forget their circumstances for a moment. Children are forced into a different coping mechanism. When children face discrimination or social exclusion, their reaction tends to move toward hostility. They push back against the system that is attempting to hold them down. This produces behaviors that are reflective of less overall self-control. | https://vittana.org/the-real-causes-and-effects-of-poverty |

What Are Bryophytes? Bryophytes are a group of plant species that reproduce via spores rather than flowers or seeds. Most of bryophytes are found in damp environments and lack specialized water-conducting tissues. Examples of bryophytes include: liverworts, the mosses and hornworts. Many bryophytes usually have the following characteristics: The sporophytes of bryophytes are unbranched, producing a single spore-producing capsule known as sporangium. They all have a dominant gametophyte stage in their life cycle. They do not have roots, but have rhizoids which are relatively simple. They grow primarily in damp environments. | https://vivadifferences.com/bryophytes-vs-pteridophytes/ |

What You Need To Know About Bryophytes
Bryophytes are embryophytes that are non-vascular in other words; they have no xylem and phloem. Prominent phase in the life of bryophytes is haploid gametophyte. Gametophyte and Sporophyte in bryophytes are physically connected unlike in the pteridophytes. | https://vivadifferences.com/bryophytes-vs-pteridophytes/ |

Summary
Content: They also reproduce via spores. Life cycle
Prominent phase in the life of bryophytes is haploid gametophyte. The prominent phase in the life of Pteridophyte is diploid sporophyte. Gametophyte and Sporophyte
Gametophyte and Sporophyte in bryophytes are physically connected unlike in the pteridophytes. The Sporophytic stage and Gametophytic stage are separate and not physically connected to each other. The Neck of archegonia
The neck of the archegonia is long, containing six vertical rows of cells. The neck of archegonia in pteridophytes is short, containing four vertical rows of cells. Dominancy
Gametophyte is dominant. Sporophytes is dominant. Roots
True roots are absent. | https://vivadifferences.com/bryophytes-vs-pteridophytes/ |

Similarities Between Small And Large Intestines
Content: The small intestine is part of the digestive system. The small intestine has three parts: the duodenum, jejunum and ileum. These regions form one continuous tube and although each exhibits certain characteristic differences, there are no distinctly marked separations between them. The first area, the duodenum is adjacent to stomach and is not supported by the mesentery. Ducts from the liver, gallbladder and pancrease enter the deudenum to provide juices that neutralize acids coming from the stomach and help digest proteins, carbohydrates and fats. The second region, the jejunum, is the central section of the abdomen. It is deep red in color due extensive blood supply. The peristaltic movements of the jejunum are rapid and vigorous and the mesentery that supports this region has little fat. Parts Of Small Intestine
The third region is the ileum, which is located in the lower abdomen. | https://vivadifferences.com/difference-between-small-intestine-and-large-intestine/ |

The third region is the ileum, which is located in the lower abdomen. Its walls are narrower and thinner than in the previous section. Blood supply in the ileum is more limited, peristaltic movements are slower and the mesentery that supports this region has more fatty areas. What You Need To Know About Small Intestine
The small intestine is a part of the digestive system that runs between the stomach and large intestine. Small intestine is longer than the large intestine. It is approximately between 4.4-7.0 m.
Small intestine is made up of three parts, that is, duodenum, jejunum and ileum. | https://vivadifferences.com/difference-between-small-intestine-and-large-intestine/ |
