Comparing 3 cities Houston, Nairobi, Kenya and Antananarivo, Madagascar.

Comparing those cities with Introduction and Goals. writing a 5 pages based on climate/weather profiles for three cities To start with, you will want to introduce the three cities you are looking at. This can be 1-2 pages and can incorporate background information such as their location, altitude, population, history, what their economies are based on include http://www.nairobi.go.ke/home/explore-nairobi/ and http://www.kenya-information-guide.com/history-of-nairobi.html Links to an external site. for Nairobi, and http://www.houstontx.gov/abouthouston/index.html and http://www.tshaonline.org/handbook/online/articles/HH/hdh3.html for Houston. There are other sources on the web and in the library that you can also find on these cities (I encourage you to look at further sources this will help your paper be more well-rounded and distinct). You will need to find other sources (whether on the web or in the library) for your chosen city. This part of your paper should be approximately one page. Make sure to cite your sources! Next, you will construct a series of five tables: You will consult the following website to find the necessary climate data on the cities: http://www.weatherbase.com (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. You will find out data on the average monthly high and annual temperatures, average monthly low and annual temperatures, average monthly and annual precipitation, average monthly and annual wind speeds, and average monthly and annual evening relative humidity readings for Houston, Nairobi, and your city. Make sure once you have found the cities on the weatherbase site that you click on all data for the respective cities in the top right corner of the webpage (Note: This way you will find all the necessary climate information). Create five small tables and place them on one or two pages. It should look a little like this: Average High Temperature for Houston, Nairobi, and Antananarivo, Madagascar Jan-Dec ,Annual The tables can be hand-drawn, but if you choose to hand draw the tables, make sure they are clear and neatly organized. For temps, use Fahrenheit; for rainfall, use inches, and for winds, use miles per hour, and use percentages for relative humidity. Once you’ve created the tables, discuss the similarities and differences you notice in the three locales. What kind of weather/climate patterns do they have? What are some of the factors that seem to influence the climates of these specific locales (remember features such as latitude, altitude, interior versus coastal location, etc.)? Are their individual climates relatively stable from month to month or highly variable? Your analysis of the tables should highlight the key similarities and differences between the cities and should be approximately 2-3 pages in length. Look at some of the maps and figures within chapters 1-7 to see whether there are consistencies in the data you find on the world climate web page with what you come across in your text (for example, the mean temperatures for January and July). Also, what climate types do the three locales have? To conclude your paper, you should incorporate roughly a paragraph or two that summarizes your key findings and why they are important as well as the connections that can be drawn among and between them. The best papers will also incorporate discussion of additional weather phenomena and climate flows such as global wind patterns and/or hurricanes, monsoons, El Nio or global warming and how they apply or effect the locations you are looking at.

How to Write a Performance Listening Report: A listening report is a brief summary of your experience and opinions based on hearing a musical performance.

The report should be written with proper grammar, in complete sentences, and each sentence should lead in to the next sentence smoothly. The report should contain: An introductory sentence explaining what piece(s) you listened to, who performed them, and where you heard them (was it at a performing arts center?). 2) A sentence telling the reader something your book says about the type of music you heard. 3) Sentences expressing your opinions about the piece(s) you heard. You are expected to explain give reasons for why you formed those opinions while listening to the pieces. What did you hear while listening that made you decide on these opinions?

Discuss how monetary policy works and what may prevent it from working perfectly.

Provide a brief one paragraph over this weeks materials: The government of every country has public policies that support the system of money, loans, and banking. But these policies do not always work perfectly. Then, we will look at the international dimension of money, which involves conversions from one currency to another at an exchange rate. Finally, we will revisit fiscal policy covered in Unit 1, which is one of two policy tools for fine tuning the economy (the other being monetary policy). While monetary policy is made by policymakers at the Federal Reserve, fiscal policy is made by Congress and the President.
