    India is in the centre of a very serious conflict in the world today. It is a very diverse place composed of people from many different religious backgrounds that come from many different regions. Two of the country’s main religions, Muslim and Hindu, have been fighting for hundreds of years for many different reasons. Their feelings of hatred and mistrust for each other are embedded in their memories and will not be forgotten easily. The worst part is there seems to be no initial plan for compromise between the two groups. Though there are many reasons for this conflict, only a few will be touched on. Those that will be touched on are the Islamic attacks on Indian Parliament, the anti-Muslim textbooks, and the Deganga Riots. These are all recent examples of the feud between these two religions and how they are not letting the past go. The Muslim-Hindu relationship is declining and there is no sign of letting up in the near future.…

    The research paper I found to discuss was a study done on motivation in the work place in a hotel in Konya, Turkey. Since I am currently in the hotel industry I find it very interesting that these individuals were able to conduct a mathematical analysis of what drives employees to stay committed in the work place. The three factors they tested to see which had the highest effect on employees were intrinsic motivation, extrinsic motivation, and work motivation.…

    Critics beleive the European Union is a project devised by and for the elites, lacking democratic legitimacy. Turnouts for the direct elections to the European Parliament has been consistently falling since they were first instituted. The parliament has never had more power, yet trust in the EU is seems to be at an all-time low and the economic crisis is making this problem more severe. Even Enrico Letta, Italy’s prime minister, reckons Eurosceptics could win up to a third of the seats. He also wants to shock pro-European forces by turning the European election into a contest for the next president of the European Commission. Advocates of this hope to strengthen the commission’s democratic mandate, focus the contest on European issues, and raise the stakes to avoid the ballot turning into a protest against unpopular national governments. The EU is part international organization and part federation and a direct election makes sense should the commission ever be granted federal authority, including tax-raising powers. European politicians can never have more legitimacy than national ones, so national leaders should lead the fight against Eurosceptics in defending the benefits of integration, fixing its flaws and, in the euro zone, explain the reforms needed to stay in the single currency.…

    It has been reported numerous amounts of times that drones are getting near airplanes as said by many pilots. There was a total of 193 reports of this happening from February to November alone. Although the drones rarely impacted the outcome of the flight, some pilots reported having to alter the flight route in order to avoid the unmanned vehicles. These drones are making themselves more frequent in our lives today as well. They're becoming frequent from helping out surveying fields for farmers to getting aerial shots for photographers. Even civilians could buy a drone for their own purposes. Drones are also making their way into buisness with special warrants from the FAA. Drones could even be profitable with piloting jobs starting at $100,000 salary. http://money.cnn.com/2014/11/25/news/drone-pilot-degree/index.html?iid=EL…
