THEORY OF RELATIVITY
As we dedicate this Thesis to Black communitie, we mark February 21st as the day the world lost one of its greatest humanitarians – Malcolm X.
“A man who stands for nothing will fall for anything.” Malcolm X
“If you’re not ready to die for it, put the word ‘freedom’ out of your vocabulary.” — Ghetto beats.
This legendary leader, born as El Haaj Malik El-Shabazz, has become a civil rights icon and is considered by many to be one of the most influential African Americans in history.
Malcom X’s group of nationalists heightened the political consciousness of African Americans through public speaking which promoted freedom, justice and equality. He believed everyone should stand up for their race with courage, dignity and pride through self defense and activism. He once stated “we are nonviolent with people who are nonviolent with us.”
Many consider Malcom X’s approach to raising the self-esteem of African Americans and pushing for equal rights to be one the most effective approaches of our time. His legacy has been recognized by multiple generations and will remain a major part of African American history. It is clear his messages will continue to guide many into the future.
Malcolm X once said, “There is no better than adversity. Every defeat, every heartbreak, every loss, contains its own seed, its own lesson on how to improve your performance next time.”
Before Apple makes its Beats acquisition truly official, join us for a trip down context lane.
Producer and Record Executive
Behind the scenes, Dr. Dre has been instrumental in launching the careers of numerous hip-hop and rap artists. He acted as a track producer for many of the artists on Ruthless Records, a venture he started up with Eazy-E. Dre also worked with singer Michel'le on her debut album. With N.W.A., Dre helped produce much of the group's material.
With Marion "Suge" Knight, Dre co-founded the rap music empire known as Death Row Records in 1991. There he worked on the 1993 debut album of Snoop Dogg, Doggystyle, and Tupac Shakur's 1996 work All Eyez on Me. That same year Dre left Death Row Records, escaping from the increasingly troublesome West Coast/East Coast rap feud. The conflict would eventually lead to the deaths of rappers Shakur and Biggie Smalls.
Dre established his own label, Aftermath Entertainment, in connection with Interscope Records. He signed numerous acts to Aftermath, but his two greatest successes came with Eminem and 50 Cent. At first, Dre took flak for signing white rapper Eminem, but he soon proved the critics wrong. He produced several of Eminem's hit albums, including The Slim Shady LP (1999) and The Marshall Mathers LP (2000). With 50 Cent, Dre worked on his debut smash Get Rich or Die Tryin'(2003), among other projects.
Hip-Hop Mogul
In 2008, Dre expanded his hip-hop brand when he founded Beats Electronics with record producer Jimmy Iovine. He debuted the company's audio line with Beats by Dr. Dre Studio headphones, which became wildly popular, and were followed by more successful products endorsed by pop and hip-hop artists. The online music streaming service Beats Music was also launched in January 2014. The two partners have also funded The Jimmy Iovine and Andre Young Academy for Arts, Technology and the Business of Innovation.
In May 2014, Apple announced the purchase of Beats for $3 billion. The deal increased Dre's net worth to approximately $800 million, making him the richest rap star, according to Forbes. As part of the acquisition, the largest in Apple's history, Dre and Iovine joined Apple in executive roles. In 2016, Apple announced it was working on its first scripted television series entitled Vital Signs, based on Dre's life. Dr. Dre will be an executive producer of the show.

“Here – at this final hour, in this quiet place – Harlem has come to bid farewell to one of its brightest hopes -extinguished now, and gone from us forever. For Harlem is where he worked and where he struggled and fought – his home of homes, where his heart was, and where his people are – and it is, therefore, most fitting that we meet once again – in Harlem – to share these last moments with him. For Harlem has ever been gracious to those who have loved her, have fought her, and have defended her honor even to the death.
It is not in the memory of man that this beleaguered, unfortunate, but nonetheless proud community has found a braver, more gallant young champion than this Afro-American who lies before us – unconquered still. I say the word again, as he would want me to : Afro-American – Afro-American Malcolm, who was a master, was most meticulous in his use of words. Nobody knew better than he the power words have over minds of men. Malcolm had stopped being a ‘Negro’ years ago. It had become too small, too puny, too weak a word for him. Malcolm was bigger than that. Malcolm had become an Afro-American and he wanted – so desperately – that we, that all his people, would become Afro-Americans too.This legendary leader, born as El Haaj Malik El-Shabazz, has become a civil rights icon and is considered by many to be one of the most influential African Americans in history.

Trouble With the Law & Violence Against Women
Over the years, Dre hasn't just rapped about violence or reckless behavior. He has lived some of his lyrics, experiencing numerous scrapes with the law. In 1991, he reportedly hit TV host Denise Barnes and tried to push her down a flight of stairs. The attack was triggered by a segment she had done about Ice Cube's departure from N.W.A. Dre faced assault charges and a civil suit for his actions, but both parties decided to settle out of court.

Better times for the music industry
The music industry will see better times in 2018
THE internet has always been the enemy of music executives. It facilitates piracy, dents CD sales and encourages people to download single songs instead of buying them by the dozen. But it will give executives something to sing about in 2018. Subscription services such as Spotify, which allow users to stream music for a monthly fee or in exchange for listening to advertisements, will add listeners. So will online-radio services like Pandora. And more digital-music firms will be launched. The spread of smartphones and unlimited-data plans will make these portable music services more attractive to listeners. Streaming is still a small part of the music business globally, but will bolster it in the years ahead. Like a popular rocker who burns out, only to try to stage a comeback a decade later, the sickly music industry will probably never regain its previous vigour. But even modest growth is welcome news.

GHETTO BEATS THEORY
Einstein's theory of relativity is a famous theory, but it's little understood. The theory of relativity refers to two different elements of the same theory: general relativity and special relativity. The theory of special relativity was introduced first and was later considered to be a special case of the more comprehensive theory of general relativity.
General relativity is a theory of gravitation that Albert Einstein developed by between 1907 and 1915, with contributions from many others after 1915.
What Is Relativity?
Classical relativity (defined initially by Galileo Galilei and refined by Sir Isaac Newton) involves a simple transformation between a moving object and an observer in another inertial frame of reference.
If you are walking in a moving train, and someone stationary on the ground is watching, your speed relative to the observer will be the sum of your speed relative to the train and the train's speed relative to the observer. You're in one inertial frame of reference, the train itself (and anyone sitting still on it) are in another, and the observer is in still another.
Introduction to Special Relativity
In 1905, Albert Einstein published (among other things) a paper called "On the Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies" in the journal Annalen der Physik. The paper presented the theory of special relativity, based on two postulates:
Einstein's PostulatesPrinciple of Relativity (First Postulate): The laws of physics are the same for all inertial reference frames.
Principle of Constancy of the Speed of Light (Second Postulate): Light always propagates through a vacuum (i.e. empty space or "free space") at a definite velocity, c, which is independent of the state of motion of the emitting body.
Actually, the paper presents a more formal, mathematical formulation of the postulates.
The phrasing of the postulates are slightly different from textbook to textbook because of translation issues, from mathematical German to comprehensible English.
The second postulate is often mistakenly written to include that the speed of light in a vacuum is c in all frames of reference. This is actually a derived result of the two postulates, rather than part of the second postulate itself.
The first postulate is pretty much common sense. The second postulate, however, was the revolution. Einstein had already introduced the photon theory of light in his paper on the photoelectric effect (which rendered the ether unnecessary). The second postulate, therefore, was a consequence of massless photons moving at the velocity c in a vacuum. The ether no longer had a special role as an "absolute" inertial frame of reference, so it was not only unnecessary but qualitatively useless under special relativity.
As for the paper itself, the goal was to reconcile Maxwell's equations for electricity and magnetism with the motion of electrons near the speed of light. The result of Einstein's paper was to introduce new coordinate transformations, called Lorentz transformations, between inertial frames of reference. At slow speeds, these transformations were essentially identical to the classical model, but at high speeds, near the speed of light, they produced radically different results.
Effects of Special Relativity
Special relativity yields several consequences from applying Lorentz transformations at high velocities (near the speed of light). Among them are:
Time dilation (including the popular "twin paradox")
Length contraction
Velocity transformation
Relativistic velocity addition
Relativistic doppler effect
Simultaneity & clock synchronization
Relativistic momentum
Relativistic kinetic energy
Relativistic mass
Relativistic total energy
In addition, simple algebraic manipulations of the above concepts yield two significant results that deserve individual mention.
Mass-Energy Relationship
Einstein was able to show that mass and energy were related, through the famous formula E=mc2. This relationship was proven most dramatically to the world when nuclear bombs released the energy of mass in Hiroshima and Nagasaki at the end of World War II.
Speed of Light
No object with mass can accelerate to precisely the speed of light. A massless object, like a photon, can move at the speed of light. (A photon doesn't actually accelerate, though, since it always moves exactly at the speed of light.)
But for a physical object, the speed of light is a limit. The kinetic energy at the speed of light goes to infinity, so it can never be reached by acceleration.
Some have pointed out that an object could in theory move at greater than the speed of light, so long as it did not accelerate to reach that speed. So far no physical entities have ever displayed that property, however.
Adopting Special Relativity
In 1908, Max Planck applied the term "theory of relativity" to describe these concepts, because of the key role relativity played in them. At the time, of course, the term applied only to special relativity, because there was not yet any general relativity.
Einstein's relativity was not immediately embraced by physicists as a whole because it seemed so theoretical and counterintuitive. When he received his 1921 Nobel Prize, it was specifically for his solution to the photoelectric effect and for his "contributions to Theoretical Physics." Relativity was still too controversial to be specifically referenced.
Over time, however, the predictions of special relativity have been shown to be true. For example, clocks flown around the world have been shown to slow down by the duration predicted by the theory.

Albert Einstein didn't create the coordinate transformations needed for special relativity. He didn't have to because the Lorentz transformations that he needed already existed. Einstein was a master at taking previous work and adapting it to new situations, and he did so with the Lorentz transformations just as he had used Planck's 1900 solution to the ultraviolet catastrophe in black body radiation to craft his solution to the photoelectric effect, and thus develop the photon theory of light.

Why Investing in Japan is Investing in the Future
Evolving opportunitiesPerceptions of Japan have been transformed in the past ten years. Its economy is on the longest growth streak in more than a decade, stock prices are at highs not seen since the early 1990s and its unemployment rate is now under 3%.
Behind the headline economic data, global perceptions about investment opportunities and longer-term challenges the country faces are also evolving. Consider its ageing population. By 2040, over one-third of people in Japan will be older than 65, up from just over one-quarter in 2015. Yet far from seeing demographic change as a burden, businesses and policymakers in Japan increasingly see it as an investment opportunity. Deploying cutting-edge technologies like big data, the Internet of Things (IoT) and artificial intelligence (AI), they hope to tackle societal challenges like a shrinking workforce, growing healthcare needs and reduced mobility.
Such investments promise to pay off in both the public and private sectors. Indeed, the government has put creating “Society 5.0”, a smart future where physical space and cyberspace will be seamlessly connected, at the forefront of its growth strategy. These developments are also attracting renewed overseas investment from global companies, who hope to capitalise on Japan’s growth and learn from its experience.
History of Vanguard foundation
The Vanguard Public Foundation established in 1972 by a group of inheritors of corporate fortunes, including Peter Stern and members of the Pillsbury and du Pont families. who were devoted to supporting a progressive social and political agenda.
ClosureIn 2002, Samuel "Mouli" Cohen was introduced to Vanguard CEO Hari Dillon by actor. Mouli said he would help the foundation by allowing Vanguard and its donors with buying shares in the privately owned . Dillon and Glover formed general partnerships through which they thought they had purchased several million dollars' worth of Ecast. At least three partnerships with Hari Dillon's Dillon Group, and an additional one with Glover, were used as vehicles to funnel investments from Vanguard Public Foundation donors to a deal with Mouli. The Vanguard donors ultimately put in over $20 million more in philanthropic money and personal investment cash.
Mouli stated that Ecast was to be acquired by, which would then generate a significant return on investment, as high as 1000%. The Microsoft acquisition reportedly got delayed over EU rules, which generated a need for more fees to cover transaction costs. It was further delayed when reports that Ecast was considering a competing bid from Google. Ultimately, there was no Microsoft purchase, no Google bid, and the money was fraudulently taken by Cohen.Further, as reported by a show on Cohen had already been forced out of Ecast and was no longer affiliated with the company by the time he had become involved with Dillon.
Vanguard was forced to close in 2011 as a result of the fraud. Cohen and Dillon were later successfully prosecuted, with Dillon pleading guilty, for their role in the scandal.
Grants.Vanguard's grant making put money into social movement causes, often before they became politically acceptable and often to organizations and actions that were never going to generate mainstream support. The Vanguard Public Foundation oversees four separate grant-making programs.
Social Justice Fund
Provided support to community-based organizations seeking to bring about progressive social change. The funding priorities focused on issues such as homelessness, civil rights, cultural activism, criminal justice, environmental justice, economic justice, human rights, immigration, and youth advocacy and leadership.Community Institution Building Program.The Community Institution Building Program supported social justice organizations.Technical Assistance & Capacity Building Program
Provided grant support, access to professional consultants, and skills workshops for community-based organizations that focused on environmental justice and other health-related problems in the Central Valley of California.
Social Justice Sabbatical Fund. Provided funding to community activists in order to enable them to take a 2-3 month break from their activities.
Grant recipients.Vanguard tended to focus on emerging projects which often went on to become more accepted by the public and therefore more fundable by other foundations. Donors also gave money to specific groups through Vanguard, enabling unincorporated groups to receive donations.

THE PATH OUT OF POVERTY BEGINS WHEN THE NEXT GENERATION CAN ACCESS QUALITY HEALTHCARE AND A GREAT EDUCATION.
In developing countries, we focus on improving people’s health and wellbeing, helping individuals lift themselves out of hunger and extreme poverty. In the United States & AFRICA, we seek to ensure that all people—especially those with the fewest resources—can access the opportunities they need to succeed in school and life.
The Challenge To learn more about our approach and strategy:For generations, education has been the springboard to opportunity in America. But today, other countries are catching up with and even outpacing us. The times have changed—our schools need to change with them.We live in a globally connected, information saturated world. To thrive, our students need to learn in and out of school, in person and online, together and independently. Students need learning experiences that meet them where they are, engage them deeply, let them progress at a pace that meets their individual needs, and helps them master the skills for today and tomorrow.
Teachers need the feedback and professional growth opportunities they want to help their students succeed instead of generic, one-size-fits all solutions that don’t help them grow as professionals.The stakes are high. Limited opportunity for too many young people results in dramatically lower life prospects for them and a worse quality of life for all of us.

In developing countries, we focus on improving people’s health and wellbeing, helping individuals lift themselves out of hunger and extreme poverty. In the United States & AFRICA, we seek to ensure that all people—especially those with the fewest resources—can access the opportunities they need to succeed in school and life.
The Challenge To learn more about our approach and strategy:For generations, education has been the springboard to opportunity in America. But today, other countries are catching up with and even outpacing us. The times have changed—our schools need to change with them.We live in a globally connected, information saturated world. To thrive, our students need to learn in and out of school, in person and online, together and independently. Students need learning experiences that meet them where they are, engage them deeply, let them progress at a pace that meets their individual needs, and helps them master the skills for today and tomorrow.
Teachers need the feedback and professional growth opportunities they want to help their students succeed instead of generic, one-size-fits all solutions that don’t help them grow as professionals.The stakes are high. Limited opportunity for too many young people results in dramatically lower life prospects for them and a worse quality of life for all of us.
