United Kingdom Removes Coal from their Energy Grid for a Day
Traditional forms of energy production are eroding faster than the metal pipes used to extract fossil fuels from the earth. Recently, the United Kingdom completed an entire day without the use of coal to power the country. The country has decreased their production of coal from 20 percent in 2014, to almost little or no production in 2017. Renewable energy continues to replace coal for price efficiency. One counter argument to the progress in sustaining the environment with renewable energy is that countries like the United Kingdom, Iceland, Albania and Paraguay are smaller in comparison to the United States and China.
Netflix Hack Strikes Season 5 to Orange Is the New Black
Netflix experienced an issue of theft and hacking that took place at Larson Studios, a postproduction service in Los Angeles, during late 2016 or early in 2017. The hackers will remain anonymous, but the issue of stealing digital files from major streaming networks is a serious problem. The New York Times reported: 'Netflix had announced this year that Season 5 of “Orange Is the New Black” would be released June 9, and it was not immediately clear whether it planned to move up the release date.' Leaked content is a major problem for film and music. Major record labels and studios
Explore Effective Methods to Producing Engaging Web Content for Multimedia Creators
As the Internet continues to grow, the demand for content continues to grow. Web producers continue to face the problem of creating engaging content that connects with multiple demographics. The content and product is going to need to be refined to a point that is easy to consume, informative, and valuable enough to need to share with friends and family. When I first started blogging ten years ago, I would write about music related topics. Over the years, I have been able to refine that style of content, as well as exploring different avenues of content from sports, politics,
Scientists and Citizens March Across the United States in Support for Earth Day 2017
Earth Day started in 1970 with a humble beginning in the United States. Over the past 48 years, people have joined together to help sustain and protect the environment. In 2017, Earth Day took on a new meaning with international protests pushing for a more sustainable future. The Guardian reported: 'The main March for Science event was held in Washington DC, where organizers made plans for up to 150,000 people to flock to the national mall...' They also pointed out that over 600 protests were held across the globe. The March for Science event continues after the protest wrapped yesterday.
Advertising on Social Media in Comparison to Radio, Newspaper and Televison
As a media producer with over seven years experience producing Web content, I have been able to find out the best practices to advertising for different companies. Before a company sets an advertising budget, before a company opens their doors, and before they pick out a spot for the business, the first thing a company should do is create a new product that fills demand. Once the company has gauged the amount of revenue they will collect in comparison to spending costs, then they can start to create engaging ways to deliver the product to a mass market. The
A Glance Behind the Scenes of the Marijuana Industry on April 20
For decades the federal government has been heavily controlled by lobbyists from major corporations. Pharmaceutical companies have been pumping billions of dollars into the economy, and for several years the government has created laws to imprison people for using drugs not sold by the major drug distributors. Once public demand for drugs started to shift towards marijuana, the drug companies started to take note, and have been shifting their focus more to medical marijuana. It can be noted that public demand does help influence law though. When consumers shift their demand, the lobbyists go running after the revenue, and the politicians listen

Amazon Web Services hosted a two day summit in San Francisco on April 18 & 19. They provided insight on developments within the company, over 50 workshops and courses, and the opportunity to connect with employees at Amazon.

The Reoccurring False Narrative Behind the War with North Korea
The last time North Korea went to war it was the Korean Civil War that lasted from (1950 - 1953). At the time the Soviet Union was pumping resources into the fight to take on the United States, while the people of Korea fought along with the two major countries. For the last sixty years, the mainstream press has kept pounding home the idea that North Korea is a threat. And for the last sixty years, Russia has not funded the country due to a lack of return on investment it would bring them. In 2015, the US will
The Facebook F8 Conference Lacks to Deliver Innovative New Products
The first day to the Facebook F8 Conference was held today. Overall I felt it lacked focus at demoing new products to get people excited about upcoming developments within the company. "We're making the camera the first Augmented Reality Platform." - Mark Zuckerberg The conference did shine light on social interaction within virtual reality. The Social VR application launched today on beta. Overall it looks cute, but has a lot of work to be done before it has a definable purpose. One major flaw I see in virtual reality shared experiences in general is compatibility. Users will need to have
