  • Alexander Graham Bell
    WEEK 2 LEVEL 7 Alexander Graham Bell Alexander Graham Bell is the famous inventor of the telephone. Born in Scotland on March 3, 1847, he was the second son of Alexander and Eliza Bell. His father taught students the art of speaking clearly, or elocution, and his mother played the piano. Bell’s mother was almost deaf. His father’s career and his mother’s hearing impairment influenced the course of his career. He became a teacher of deaf people. As a child, Bell didn’t care for school, and he eventually dropped out. He did like to solve problems though. For example, when he was only 12, he invented a new farm implement. The tool removed the tiny husks from wheat grains. After the deaths of his two brothers from tuberculosis, Bell and his parents moved from Europe to Canada in 1870. They thought the climate there was healthier than in Scotland. A year later, Bell moved to the United States. He got a job teaching at the Boston School for Deaf Mutes. © 2019 Scholar Within, Inc. WEEK 2 LEVEL 7 One of his students was a 15-year-old named Mabel Hubbard. He was 10 years older than she was, but they fell in love and married in 1877. The Bells raised two daughters but lost two sons who both died as babies. Bell’s father-in-law, Gardiner Hubbard, knew Bell was interested in inventing things, so he asked him to improve the telegraph. Telegraph messages were tapped out with a machine using dots and dashes known as Morse code.

  • Locational Guidelines for Base Stations of Cellular Mobile
    Locational Guidelines for Base Stations of Cellular Mobile Telephone Service, Paging Service, Trunking Service, Wireless Local Loop Service and Other Wireless Communication Service I. RATIONALE Telecommunication pays an important role in the country's quest to achieve Newly Industrialized Country status in view of its direct and indirect long term effects on investment, employment and social welfare, economic growth and rates of capital formation. : The government's move from being a facility operator to being a catalyst for the telecommunication sector is intended to foster its growth. The government encourages the private sector to pursue the expansion and improvement of basic telecommunication infrastructure and services that are efficient and responsive to market needs such as the Cellular Mobile Telephone Service (CMTS) which is targeted to be made available in all Major Urban Centers and majority of Key Development Centers (KDC) as well as major highways and corridors connecting these centers. The CMTS serves a wide array of clientele from residential, commercial, institutional and industrial areas. This implies that cell sites/base stations may fall within any of the foregoing uses as well. With the growth of the telecommunication industry the HLURB in the exercise of its mandate to ensure rational land use by regulating land development, and likewise in response to the request of sectors concerned, saw the necessity to provide guidelines for the location of communication infrastructure proliferating at present for the protection of the providers and users, as well as the public in general while ensuring efficient and responsive communication services. This guideline intends to: a. facilitate the provision of wireless telecommunication services to the target users; b.
