The FAA throws a lot of caution to the wind, especially when considering there are no break down lanes in the sky. Would this practice of turning off electronic devices during takeoff and landing also be due to the fact the new electronic devices are released to consumers on a regular basis, which make the process of verifying their safety virtually impossible?

An Introduction to White Privilege and Race, Halley, Eshleman & Vijaya (2010) argue that Often whites simply perceive themselves as normal or just human and fail to notice their own race What do you interpret this statement? How does this relate to the idea that race is socially and culturally constructed?

In the introduction to their book
Seeing White: An Introduction to White Privilege and Race, Halley, Eshleman & Vijaya (2010) argue that “Often whites simply perceive themselves as ‘normal’ or ‘just human’ and fail to notice their own race” (p. 4). What do you interpret this statement? How does this relate to the idea that race is socially and culturally constructed?
To me this statement highlights the invisible privileges that comes as a result of being white. This is because society has been structured to empower the majority group (White) over other minority groups. For example, a study by Fürsich (2010) examined the role played in the post-colonial era by the media and entertainment in defining non- white and minorities as others. The study outlined the fact that this othering of unfamiliar people groups and the labelling of these groups as minority was done to unify the countrys majority (White) at the time (2010). As whiteness was therefore set to be the norm and resulted to privilege and advantages. Subsequently, being non-white resulted to many limitations and inequalities. This is what authors Halley, et.al. (2010, para. 5) point out when stating that racial privilege does not exist without whiteness, and without whiteness, racial privilege does not exist (Halley et.al. 2010, pg. 11, para.5). Therefore, understanding the genesis of the othering process as outlined by Fürsich, (2010) and why it was established will pave the way to understanding why White privilege exists and how it plays out.
Review the Pew Research Center’s (2020) report
Amid National Reckoning, Americans Divided on Whether Increased Focus on Race Will Lead to Major Policy Change
. Why do you think the different groups discussed in the article have different views of the progress that has been made on equality?
I think that different groups have different views of the progress that has been made on equality based on their ethnicities and how they each experience the world daily as a result of belonging to that particular ethnic group. For example, when it comes to the topic of how much progress has been made on equality, Black people will have a different opinion on the topic compared to Whites, Hispanics, or Asians. This is because as they move and live in the world, each group encounters different experiences. For example, the Pew research study states that more than half of Black adults report that the country still has a long way to go when it comes to achieving racial equality. However, 74% of White adults and 56% of Hispanics who say the country hasnt made enough progress in this area believe that Black people will eventually have equal rights with White people (Horowitz, et.al. 2020, para. 17).
Which group do you most closely agree with? Why?
As someone who has followed the George Floyd story develop through the news, I agree that there is still a lot of work to be done before all groups can reach equality, especially Black people. I also believe that stories that I have seen on the news such as that of Goerge Floyd or Trevor Martin have affected my views on whether enough progress has been made. Even though I know some policies and reforms have been made, these stories have nonetheless affected how I measure and consider these changes to be considerable or not.

Although I have not used CAD since I was in high school about 20 years ago, I remember that there are tons of benefits of CAD software. Describe the 7 Major Advantages of CAD Software for Design.
Although I have not used CAD since I was in high school about 20 years ago, I remember that there are tons of benefits of CAD software. Describe the 7 Major Advantages of CAD Software for Design.It looks like it has come a long way since then though. It can be used to design 2D drawings and 3D models with precise measurements. Many industries utilize CAD every single day, including engineering, industrial design, architecture, and product design.
CAD software allows designers to increase productivity with lower production costs, work faster and smarter, and ultimately leads to quicker project completion while keeping teams smaller. The designer no longer must completely start over just because they make one mistake. On the same note, if the design does not function as expected, they can simply alter it instead of starting over. CAD drawings can also be clearer and easier to read than traditional pencil and paper drawings.
CAD software can also produce aesthetically pleasing models that can be used by other departments, including marketing and sales, without spending money on a prototype. This software also makes it easy to share work between team members and view design history for collaborating, there is even cloud-based software that is increasingly popular so work can be accomplished anywhere with a network connection. Based on my research, CAD software has a lot of new features that I am excited to learn about.
