Google Company forms one of the great providers of internet services across the world. While several issues affect the functionality of Google, political and economic problems arise alongside media use. As states seek to utilize globalization in enhancing performance cultures actively, and economic significance, several concerns regarding the FAANG companies arise that calls for attention from the world. The concepts and ideologies of globalization contribute to the perceptions of google companies based on political and economic aspects.

BALL VALVES A ball valve is defined as a mechanical device that directs, guides, and modulates the flow of different types of liquids through a ball opening that has an opening in the middle. The port is termed the opening. This manually opens/closes the port, controls the pressure from the liquid flow by turning the handle onto the ball valve. Durability and “full” shutdown/shutdown are what benefit the ball valve over other valve types. Valves are found and can go unnoticed in our everyday lives. There are plumbing valves, for example, that are in our spigots at our sinks. Inside our washing machines are switches, dishwashers, gas fireplaces, outdoor hot spigots, fridges, and more. Various industries make use of valves for their manufacturing. Such industries include to name a few, electronics, power, automobile, printing, plastics, textiles, metal, medical, chemical, and food. Generally, the industries that use ball valves need to tolerate high pressure and times more significant than 480 degrees. Ball valves are simple to operate, and they are easy to repair without being removed from their pipeline. The ball…

Monsanto Case Study Research Introduction The issue of genetically modified foods has been a subject of great debate since the GMOs started being sold on the markets. Contrary to popular belief, genetic modification of organisms is not a contemporary phenomenon. Human beings have been modifying organisms for centuries. Human beings used traditional modification mechanisms such as selective breeding and cross-breeding since circa 8000 BCE (FDA, 2020). Genetic engineering, which is the main method of producing GMOs, advanced after the discovery of DNA in the mid-20th century. In 1994, the first genetically modified food, a slow ripening tomato, was marketed. Since then, many biotechnology companies have been formed, and the largest of them all is Monsanto. Formed in St. Louis, Missouri, in 1901, Monsanto was initially a chemical factory, specializing in producing artificial sweeteners. The company diversified its products. The company faced its main obstacle in the 1970s when Agent Orange was sued for its destruction of the environment and presence of carcinogens, which adversely affected the Vietnam War veterans. The Agent Orange experience prompted the company to change course and…

Computer Pattern Drafting II Computer science has for years now been identified as one of the most important courses offered by higher learning institutions. Deductions from divergent scholars and practitioners highlight that the course accords students with problem-solving skills which, when combined with software/ hardware design and analysis, allows for the solving of major problems in social, scientific, and business contexts. The subsequent essay offers an insight into the major lessons that the student gained when under the Computer Pattern Drafting II course. The reflection is guided by the thesis that the knowledge accrued can come in handy in providing the student with the requisite skills needed for the stringent computer science industry. The first lesson I learned is that there are both free and subscription software in contemporary society that allows practitioners to input their own measurements for the purpose of printing out patterns that are personalized. Such software is important for any computer scientist as they eliminate trial and errors that might occur during the drafting of patterns. Now, the first task that I conducted through the use…

Global supply chain management Describe the actions that GoGreen should take to evaluate its suppliers. Be specific and provide examples There are various actions that GoGreen should take to evaluate its suppliers. One of these actions is the analysis of timely delivery among the suppliers. In this case, the firm should determine which suppliers are able to do the deliveries on time and those who may delay the delivery. Apart from that, cost can be used as the other element in evaluating the performance of the suppliers. In this case, the assessor should analyze the amount incurred after ordering the goods from the suppliers. Therefore, cost and timeliness analysis are the measures that should be used in evaluating suppliers (Lau, Ng, & Acevedo, 2019). As an importer of bioethanol, what are some of the major risks that GoGreen faces with the supply chain?

Is the future all about machine learning?   Machine learning can be defined as an ability provided to the system to automatically manage and handle specific tasks without the help of outside influence. It aims at the development of various computer programs that can process things within themselves. The most common way to learn is, to begin with, self-experience or observation, which makes up the primary aim of machine learning, requiring no human intervention. Starting from the prediction of market analysis to the calculation of any new target for new input, machine learning provides a great platform to become independent and reduce task management problems. It enhances the analysis of massive data entries as well as delivers results faster to identify high profits that can prove a crucial point to attain a status while handling company projects.   In this era of post-industrialization, humans have been working hard to create a machine which is similar to a human. At this point, machine learning, which is an application of artificial intelligence, has reached a crucial as well as leading state to…

Final Paper Research Revision The plight of refugees in the USA is now a well-documented fact. Refugees usually endure various problems while at the host countries. It, therefore, implies that the US society is not just exceptional. Even though concerted efforts have been made to improve the refugees’ experiences in host countries, the plight through which they undergo cannot be ignored. No other book details the refugees’ problems in the United States than Cristina Henriquez’s ‘The Book of Unknown Americans.’ In this book, Henriquez uses fictitious characters to bring the readers the plight of Central American refugees in the United States. Readers are introduced to the sad story of Arturo Rivera, who decides to leave his plum job in Mexico to come to the USA to seek proper medical care for her daughter, Maribel, who is suffering from a brain injury. If only Arturo could know that he was looking after his death, probably he would not have braced for the long tiresome journey to the Newark, Delaware (Henriquez 30). Garrett sexually abuses her daughter Maribel Rivera under Alma’s witness,…
