Traffic Jam in a Big City

Ever exclusivelyege close to Science of observation, deduction and analysis? Oh, Im non difference to give a physics lecture Well, its a choke affaire. Imagine that or sobody is coming to you and you al larny spang what s/he was up to in the past or what s/he is breathing out to ask you and so on there could be m both cases in which science of deduction bay window be used. Here argon around of the points which enkindle help you in each(prenominal)(a) in deducing. But you can everlastingly read novels of Arthur Conan Doyle in your leisurely time to bash more(prenominal)(prenominal) than to the highest degree it. They argon available on the net as e-books for put out, and in printed regulate as well.SHERLOCK HOLMES SCIENCE OF DEDUCTION AND ANALYSIS Note Nos. 1-60 argon from the Doyle wind up canon 61-94 are from the Basil Rathb superstar movies, and 95-97 are from the Young Sherlock Holmes movie. 1. similar all separate(a) guiles, the Science of Deduction and analytic thinking is bingle which can solitary(prenominal) be acquired by yen and patient study, nor is life long enough to allow all mortal to put on the highest possible perfection in it. Before turning to those moral and mental aspects of the matter which evidence the spaciousest difficulties, let the inquirer begin by mastering more elementary problems.Let him on meeting a fellow-mortal, learn at a glance to distinguish the history of the piece of music and the trade or calling to which he belongs. Puerile as such an exercise whitethorn seem, it sharpens the faculties of observation, and teaches cardinal where to wait on and what to look for. By a universes finger-nails, by his coat-sleeve, by his boot, by his trouser-knees, by the callosities of his forefinger and thumb, by his expression, by his shirt-cuffs by each of these things a mans calling is plainly revealed. That all united should fail to enlighten the competent inquirer in whatsoever case is al virt ually inc formerlyivable. 2.You should consider your brain originally is like a little empty attic, and you give way to stock it with furniture as you choose. A fool takes in all lumber of every sort that he abide bys across, so that the intimacy which cogency be useful to him gets crowded out, or at best is jumbled up with a lot of separate things, so that he has difficulty in laying his hands upon it. flat the skilled recreateman is very careful indeed as to what he takes into his brain attic. He parting behind have nought only if the tools which may help him in doing his work, but of these he has a large compartmentalization and all in the most perfect order.It is a mistake to study that that a little room has elastic walls and can distend to any extent. Depend upon it there comes a time when for every addition of knowledge you forgot something that you knew forrader. It is of the highest vastness, therefore, not to have useless facts elbowing out the useful single s. 3. An observing man can learn by an accurate and systematic mental test of all that came in his way. From a drop of water, a logician could educe the possibility of an Atlantic or a Niagara without having seen or heard of angiotensin converting enzyme or the otherwise.So all life is a bully chain, the nature of which is kn absorb whenever we are sh own a darknessgle link of it. 4. eternally approach a case with an absolutely blank creative thinker, which is unceasingly an advantage. Form no theories, dear simply observe and draw inferences from your observations. 5. It is a capital mistake to guess before you have all the evidence. Insensibly, one begins to twist the facts to suit theories, rather of theories to suit facts. It biases the judgment. 6. The temptation to form premature theories upon insufficient data is the execration of this profession. 7.They say that genius is an infinite capacity for taking pains. Its a very bad definition, but it does apply to de tective work. 8. The height of a man, in nine cases out of ten, can be t gray from the length of his stride. 9. When a man writes on a wall, his instinct leads him to write above the aim of his own eyes. 10. To a great mind, nothing is little. 11. It is a mistake to make strangeness with mystery. The most popularplace crime is often the most mysterious, be ride it presents no new or special features from which deductions may be draw. 12. There is nothing new below the sun.It has all been done before. 13. Often what is out of the common is unremarkably a guide rather than a hindrance. In resoluteness a problem of this sort, the grand thing is to be able to understanding backward. That is a very useful accomplishment, and a very easy one, but people do not practice it overmuch. In the everyday psycheal business of life it is more useful to reason forward, and so the other comes to be neglected. Most people, if you describe a train of events to them, will tell you what the results would be. They can put those events unneurotic in their minds, and argue from them that something will come to pass.There are a few people, however, who, if you told them a result, would be able to evolve from their own inner consciousness what the steps were which led up to that result. This power is what I mean when I talk of reasoning backward, or analyticly. 14. There is no branch of detective science which is so important and so much neglected as the art of tracing footsteps. Always lay great stress upon it, and practice it till it becomes second nature. 15. Detection is, or ought to be, an arrogate science and should be treated in the same cold and stoical manner. 16. neer guess.It is a shocking habit destructive to the logical faculty. spy the small facts upon which large inferences may depend. 17. When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever rests, however improbable, essentialiness be the truth. 18. The main thing with people when you talk to them in an investigating is to never let them know that their information can be of the slightest importance to you. If you do they will instantly shut up like an oyster. If you try to them under protest, as it were, you are very likely to get what you want. 19. Women are never to be all told trusted not the best of them. 0. It is healthy to adopt a system of docketing all paragraphs concerning men and things, so that it would be difficult to take a shit a subject or a person on which one could not at once furnish information. 21. When someone thinks their house is on fire, their outgrowth instinct is at once to quicken to the thing which they value most. It is a perfectly overpowering impulse. 22. Often the strangest and most unique things are very often connected not with the big but with the smaller crimes, and occasionally, indeed, where there is room for doubt whether any prescribed crime has been connected. 3. As a rule, the most bizarre a thing is the less mysterious it pr oves to be. It is your commonplace, featureless crimes which are trulyly puzzling, just as a commonplace face is the most difficult to identify. 24. Usually in unimportant matters there is a field for the observation, and for the quick analysis of cause and effect which gives the charm to the investigation. The larger crimes are apt to be the simpler, for the big the crime the more obvious, as a rule, is the motive. 25. It should be your business to know things. To train yourself to see what others overlook. 26.In an investigation, the little things are infinitely the most important. 27. Never trust to general impressions, but concentrate yourself upon details. On examining a charrs appearance, you should realize the importance of sleeves, the suggestiveness of thumb-nails, or the great issues that may bent-grass from a boot-lace. In a man it is perhaps better initial to take the knee of the trouser. 28. Singularity is almost incessantly a clue. The more featureless and common place a crime is, the more difficult it is to wreak it home. 29. The most difficult crime to track is the one which is objectless. 0. Depend on it, there is nothing so unnatural as the commonplace. 31. You must look for consistency. Where there is a want of it you must suspect deception. 32. Your eyes should be trained to examine faces and not their trimmings. It is the first quality of a wicked investigation that you should see through a disguise. 33. Circumstantial evidence is a very tricky thing. It may seem to point very truthful to one thing, but if you shift your own point of view a little, you may find it pointing in an equally uncompromising manner to something entirely different. 34.Your order should be founded upon the observation of trifles. 35. The ideal reason would, when one had been shown a single fact in all its bearings, deduce from it not only all the chain of events which led up to it but also all the results which would follow from it. As Cuvier could correc tly describe a whole living creature by the contemplation of a single bone, so the observer who has exhaustively understood one link in a series of incidents should be able to accurately state all the other ones, both before and after. We have not yet grasped the results which the reason alone can attain to.Problems may be concluded in the study which have mazed all those who have sought a solution by the service of the senses. To carry the art, however, to its highest pitch, it is necessary that the reasoner should be able to utilize all the facts which have come to his knowledge and this in itself implies, as you will readily see, a possession of all knowledge, which, even in these days of free education and encyclopedias, is a somewhat rare accomplishment. It is not impossible, however, that a man should possess all knowledge which is likely to be useful to him in his work.A man should keep his little brain-attic stocked with all the furniture that he is likely to use, and the rest he can put away in the lumber-room of his library, where he can get it if he wants it. 36. Often the impression of a woman may be more valuable than the conclusion of an analytical reasoner. 37. Read nothing but the criminal news and the agony column. The last mentioned is eer instructive. 38. The most practical thing that you ever can do in your life would be to shut yourself up for three months and read twelve hours a day at the annals of crime.Everything comes in circles. The old wheel turns, and the same spoke comes up. Its all been done before, and will be again. Then when you have heard some slight distinction of the course of events in an investigation, you should be able to guide yourself by the thousands of other similar cases which should occur to your memory. 39. An investigator should look at everything with reference to his own special subject. atomic number 53, for example, can see some scattered houses along a countryside, and become impressed by their be auty.But to the investigator, the only thought sometimes should be a feeling of their isolation and the impunity with which crime may be committed there. 40. Crime is common. Logic is rare. Therefore it is upon logic rather than upon crime that you should dwell. 41. Pipes are occasionally of extraordinary interest. Nothing has more individuality, save perhaps watches and bootlaces. 42. Always in an investigation you should put yourself in the mans place, and, having first gauged his intelligence, try to imagine how you would proceed under the same circumstances. 43.Results are come by always putting yourself in the other fellows place, and thinking what you would do yourself. It takes some imagination, but it pays. 44. It is of the highest importance in the art of detection to be able to recognize, out of a number of facts, which are incidental and which vital. Otherwise your energy and attention must be dissolute instead of being concentrated. 45. Make it a point of never having a ny prejudices, and of following docilely wherever a fact may lead you. 46. In an investigation, it is only the colourless, uneventful cases which are hopeless. 7. In an investigation, always look for a possible alternative, and provide against it. It is the first rule of criminal investigations. 48. The features given to man are way by which he shall express his emotions, and you can read a mans train of thought from his features, especially his eyes. 49. somewhat people without possessing genius have a remarkable power of bear upon it. 50. As long as the criminal remains upon two legs so must there be some indentation, some abrasion, some flirt displacement which can be detected by the scientific searcher. 1. The put right is a most valuable institution, if you only know how to use it. 52. One peculiar(prenominal) that the detective should have in the Science of Deduction and Analysis is the ability to throw the brain out of action and to switch all thoughts on to lighter thi ngs wherever you think things could no longer work to advantage. 53. Education never ends. It is a series of lessons with the greatest for the last. 54. First real insight into the character of parents is gained by studying their children. 55. Your thoughts about hounds should be analogous.A dog always reflects the family life. Whoever saw a frisky dog in a gloomy family, or a sad dog in a happy one? Snarling people have snarling dogs, dangerous people have dangerous ones. And their passing moods may reflect the passing moods of others. 56. When a ready does go wrong he is the first of criminals. He has the nerve and he has the knowledge. 57. When you follow two separate chains of thought, you will find some point of intersection which should approximate to the truth. 58. Do not agree with those who absolute modesty among the virtues.To the logician all things should be seen exactly as they are, and to decry ones self is as much a divergency from the truth as to exaggerate ones own powers. 59. It is always good to have someone with you on whom you can thoroughly rely. topical anaesthetic aid is always either worthless or else biased. 60. It is my belief, founded upon experience, that the lowest and vilest alleys do not present a more dreadful record of sin than does the smiling and beautiful countryside. 61. The average petty thief has a more extensive knowledge of the value of objects, than the average collector. 62.The best place to encompass anything, is where everyone can see it. 63. Its often a mistake to accept something as true, merely because its obvious. The truth is only arrived at by the painstaking process of eliminating the untrue. 64. One of the first principles in solving crime, is never to disregard anything, no matter how trivial. 65. People in general forget in assuming a disguise, that the shape of the ear is an almost infallible means of recognition and identification to the trained eye. 66. Facts are always convincing. Its the conc lusions drawn from facts, that are frequently in error. 7. To the trained ear, footsteps have a characteristic rhythm as identifiable as fingerprints. 68. When murders are committed, there usually is something that unfortunate victims have in common, that might indicate the motive. If, on the other hand, they appear incidental, then they are sometimes a part of something more sinister. 69. The science of detection is very much like stringing a smattering of beads. In an investigation, the suspects are the beads, where you then must try to string them together with some thread to make a connection, in order to solve the mystery. 0. Houses, like people, have definite personalities. 71. Surgical instruments that save life, are exactly more pleasant to look at, than those that take it. 72. Murder like matrimony, generally has a motive. 73. In this profession, one has to take chances. 74. Egomaniacs are always so much more chatty when they feel they have the upper hand. 75. Suicides, i nvariably leave notes behind them. Murders do not, and when you drive a person to suicide, thats murder. 76. Often a good disguise to assume, is that of a postman. No one ever looks twice at a postman. 7. When women are involved in crime, their method, whatever it is, is apt to be peculiarly subtle and cruel. Feline not canine. 78. Poison is a womans weapon. 79. Whenever setting a trap, in order to catch someone, its best to bait it with the food they like. 80. In an attempt to solve a crime, its best to duplicate the conditions under which the crime occurred. 81. Never trust plans already made by other people, they have a habit of becoming to widely known. 82. Sometimes to leave one unguarded, can be a skillful trap for ones opponent. 3. The imagination is where crimes conceived, and where theyre solved. 84. Even when facts clearly indicate one thing, it is not always the case. Thats why so many murders remain unsolved. People will stick to facts, even though they prove nothing. No w, if you go beyond facts, use the imagination as the criminal does, imagine what might have happened, and act upon it, you will usually find yourself justified. 85. An investigator always needs something more than legends and rumors. Proof, you must have proof. 6. When examining footprints, its good to know that, unshapely people invariably bring their full weight bulge on the toenail. If other peculiarities arise, such as, the footprint being balanced from toe to heel, then the footprint must have some other compensating tarnish to explain it, such as, the footprint being made by a person not really clubfooted, but wearing a clubfooted shoe. 87. The obvious always appears simple. 88. No matter what situation arises, one must adapt oneself to the tools at hand. 89.Every crime, always exhibits a pattern and a purpose in it. 90. Purpose and motive are the last things a in their right minds(predicate) man would imply, if he were posing as a madman. Unless there is method in his ma dness. 91. The temptation of the sudden wealth, could possibly turn a once seemingly harmless person, into a ruthless killer. 92.

Anything is possible, until proven otherwise. 95. Never trust the obvious. 96. The deductive mind never rests.

RoseWood Hotels & Resorts

rosewood Hotels & Resorts Branding to increase node profitableness and lifetime value. rosewood Hotels& Resorts( rosewood) , a private hotel management company started in 1979, that built a global reputation with iconic luxury hotels such as The Mansion and The Carlyle, became well known for its ability to enhance a propertys value by creating unique, one-of-a-kind properties with a piffling ultra-luxury residential style. precisely amidst this, the brand ROSEWOOD became muted, unmentioned. The issue here is to establish Rosewood as a true brand.A brand decision is to be made to establish the companys future. Rosewood with or without a corporate brand needs to be evaluated in order to flummox at a decision. The commencement thing is-whether or not a corporate branding. * Establishing a corporate brand would mean to fall into the comparable league where other corporate brands were in. Rosewood without a corporate branding was at par with the branded ones. Its occupation ra te a carrefour geezerhood has been virtually the same for- be it The Marriott or The Four Seasons Hotels, inspite of relatively high prices at rosewood. Moreover, it would mean to keep the brand promise across the properties by ensuring perfect product/service death penalty across the portfolio, internal leisurely branding initiatives and signifi domiciliatet marketing investment. scarcely keeping in headland the uniqueness of each Rosewood hotel and their SENSE OF PLACE philosophy, consistent brand-wide performance standards seems a bit unrealistic. Each ship has something new and unique to prolong its guests. Standardizing it was not the Rosewood way of work. They understood the customer needs gibe to their functioning place and believed in offering the same.This was their Unique Selling efflorescence and diverting from this would mean a high impact on the customer expectation. A corporate branding is not the only solution to increase the customer profitability and l ifetime value. Surely Rosewood needs cross-property increase. seeing rosewood trees statistics, upto 40% customers come subscribe to the same hotel of Rosewoods only when only 5% be involved in cross property usage. In the individual brand range, they typically had 5-10% cross property usage rate and this number went upto 10-15% In case of corporate-branded hotels.But rosewood was struggling at a mere rate of 5%- the lowermost rate even in the individual brand range. So they need to boost up this number to at least derive the high edge in their own category of individual brands. I would suggest these short term course of action so as to achieve higher customer profitability and lifetime value. 1. People in spades care being at rosewood- keeping in mind their occupancy rate (average of 60% for last 3 years) and 40% customers coming back again to the same hotel. Customers are happy to be at RoseWood properties.But little gutter they relate with other RoseWood hotels. The Ros eWood hotel they go to provides them with a comfortable bear. When their guests go to a new place that also has a RoseWood property, they should know what to expect and those who liked it first will definitely want to have the same comfortable bide again. For e. g. A Mc-Donalds store worldwide is known for the food they provide. When going in a Mc-D they know what to expect and what level of food they will get. But even a Mc-D store in Gujarat has customized itself according to the place they are at and provides only vegetarian there.RoseWoods main strength is their uniqueness. But they need to build an inter relation among their hotels so that they maintain almost same level of service and comfort. People should go in to control something new but with the faith of same level of service. 2. When a customer checks-out from a RoseWood property, they can be asked to fill a small interactive feedback form and a satisfied customer should be pass with a handout of other RoseWood hotels with a promise that they can have the same satisfaction of stay there as well. . RoseWood can execute that when a guest leaves, he is made sure of other RoseWood hotels with a provision that whenever they are to go to a place having another of RoseWoods hotels, they can just clutch the manager of their regular RoseWood hotel faculty/manager and all arrangements for their stay at that place can be made beforehand as per the guests convenience. Also, by this the customers would not go to a new place and set up choices whether or not to turn up to RoseWood hotel at that place.They could implement the branding in a bit subtle way like The Mansion-from the house of RoseWood or The Mansion (RoseWood properties) so that people can be aware of and relate to them. 5. They need to collaborate more with the hold up agents. They do promote the hotel but not the brand. Educating the customers about RoseWood as well along with the hotel would help the customers to relate and entrust in the m. 6. raze the guests who have stayed in RoseWood hotels do not know of RoseWood as a brand.They need to bring the guests focus on RoseWood as well during their stay. Logo and promotion should be moved towards higher profile amenities as well. Their conversations on telephone to the dress of the staff should justify that they are a part of the RoseWood. As far as the long term initiative is concerned, being a status symbolic representation never hurts. In Fact it is the need of the hour to be a leader in the competition. So, they might as well like to go for corporate branding if willing to compromise on their Sense Of key philosophy to some extent.

Quality of Patient Care: Nursing-Sensitive Indicators Essay

treat-sensitive indicators play a large role in bedside nursing today. They encompass the bang given to perseverings, how it is given, policies, procedures, and different levels of staffing, education, and experience (ANA). They also provide a means to measure patient satisfaction. Not every involved with patient give awe will sh be the same companionship and experience as basin be seen in the scenario of Mr. J. How could nursing-sensitive indicators have changed his expiry? How coffin nail entropy collected on nursing-sensitive indicators advance quality care for all patients?One of the risk factors for acquiring a nip ulcer, a deep vein thrombosis, or infirmary acquired pneumonia is immobility. There can be several take a craps of immobility and in this case it is the use of restraints. Mr. J has creeat a pressure ulcer repayable to lying flat on his back in bed restrained. When the nurses aide assist him back to bed, lying on his back again, she showed she did not have a clear understanding of a pressure ulcer as a nursing-sensitive indicator. She should have propped him up with pillows so the reddened area was relieved of pressure. Had she or the nurse possessed that familiarity they would have been assessing his skin frequently and shift him in bed often enough so as to obstruct such an event from occurring.The patients need for restraints could be reassessed as well. Is he trying to get out of bed unassisted and is considered a fall risk due to his hip fracture and mild mania? Perhaps a bed alarm or a brood hen would have been better alternatives. Either would have allowed Mr. J to move individually in bed and he would have been less likely to expatiate a pressure ulcer. Restraints are often used without considering alternativesfirst. They can cause more than injury than good and decrease patient satisfaction. In this case, it whitethorn be difficult to gauge Mr. Js satisfaction scarce his daughter certainly wasnt satisfied with h is care. It is possible his hospital space of stay has been increased by the staffs lack of knowledge regarding nursing-sensitive indicators. At this point the staff mustiness take action to fix the situation and hopefully heal the pressure ulcer.How can hospitals use data collected based on nursing-sensitive indicators to increase the quality of patient care? Hospitals measure certain occurrences such as falls and pressure ulcers. Nursing care directly impacts these. If the number is higher than the national average, for example, a hospital whitethorn perform a study to determine the cause and thus utensil interventions to try to reduce the occurrence of falls or pressure ulcers. By analyzing data collected after an intervention was applied, the hospital can determine if the outcome was achieved or not. Once an intervention proves successful a new policy can be implemented throughout the hospital, decrease falls or pressure ulcers, leading to improved quality care for all pati ents and greater patient satisfaction (AmericanSentinelUniversityBlog).Another nursing-sensitive indicator is patient satisfaction with overall care. In Mr. Js scenario I would record the patients family was completely dissatisfied. As a Jewish rabbi he requested a kosher meal and was served pork cutlet due to an delusion with his order. Were he not mildly demented he may have noticed what he had been served, but he did not and ate it. When the daughter was notified the next evening she discovered the nursing staff had unbroken it from her and that the nurse was not sensitive to the needs of her father. This was just another mission in several that had occurred over the last six months. The physician and decision maker were notified. This is a serious offense and may prompt the Jewish society to seek care at another hospital.In order to fragment this issue and keep Mr. Js trust and that of his daughter, several things must take place. The nurse and physician caring for the pa tient should acknowledge the error and offer a heartfelt apology. They should also assure the family, steps are being takento prevent this from reoccurring. If the orders are entered through an electronic health record, IT may need to get involved to determine where the error is occurring in the order process in order to have it filled correctly.The dietary supervisor should be notified and perhaps find a new elan to indicate clearly if a tray contains a kosher meal. A undertake on the patients door could indicate his meal choice so that all entering, whether it is a dietary tech, a nurses aide, or the nurse, will clearly see it. That way, even if the patient is disturbed and alone, as Mr. J was, there will be no slide made. The issue here is patient satisfaction. Mr. Js family may dormant leave dissatisfied but this event may help implement new policies respecting ethnic preferences and the incorporation of them in a patients care.In healthcare today, nursing-sensitive indic ators are important to hospitals in that they provide a gauge to measure the quality of care patients receive. The more knowledge a nurse has of nursing-sensitive indicators, the greater quality care she can provide to produce better outcomes for her patients, resulting in their improved satisfaction.Reference rapscallionAmerican Nurses Association.

Bmw Culture

With over 90 geezerhood in the industry the culture at BMW is an anomaly in the gondola manufacturing business. BMW teaches their employees the muniment of the community and their mission from day one. Problem times from historic period past be also told to the new employees. For framework when the company was on the verge of bankruptcy in 1959 and was saved by a local business man, these mishaps ar used as learning tools to stop history from repeating itself. Regardless of your trade title all levels work unitedly to create ideas to better the brand and product.The regular pecking order that you see inside a company is not an obstacle when voicing your thoughts and ideas. Team brainstorm is done on a regular basis and everyones insert is valued. BMW was one of the first companies to offer profit sharing in Germany to its employees. The leading at BMW is one the values the employees and listens to their ideas. The type of open door leadership BMW allows for employees t o feel as if they have value to the company and its achievements. Informal powwows argon used to brainstorm for ideas with all levels of employees. It is sometimes referred to as a harum-scarum idea factory.Employees from all different departments are known to arse around unitedly and work on a single project. This culture allows for employees to feel as if they are valued and that their ideas are appreciated. No one is looked down upon when they put an idea even if they are not as high up as the other people in the room. This allows for great ideas to be precondition and fostered. The work environment at BMW is so highly sought afterwards that over 200,000 applications are received annually. The job characteristics model involves increasing the tally of skill variety, task identity, task significance, autonomy, and feed stomach in a job.Three scathing psychological states (1) experienced meaningfulness of the tasks performed, (2) experience personal responsibility for tasks outcomes, and (3) knowledge of the tasks performed. Managers at BMW seldom have formalized training to learn their jobs. This forces them to work virtually with other managers and their teams to figure out ways to improve the business. This is another sheath of how employees are tightly knight and feel as if their opinions matter. The line amongst management and subordinates is very thin.They work so closely together that the hierarchy is not as pronounced as in most companies. The big(p) involvement of all employees increases productivity and job satisfaction. Organizational creativity is fostered at BMW in many ways. BMW looks to its workers to come up with ways to save the company money. Individuals whose ideas save the plant money receive bonuses. The more(prenominal) ideas you present the more money you earn. This pushes employees to come up with solid ideas that will benefit the company. This is a win win situation for both BMW and the employees. Satisfied and motivated e mployees are a vital part of BMW.Interdepartmental brainstorming is very familiar and they work closely to come up with ideas. People arent criticized for their ideas no matter how off the wall they might be. They are encouraged to call up outside the box. The culture and work environment at BMW greatly influences the accomplishment and production of its workers. Workers are so happy with their employment they are volition to work extra hours on heavy productions long time and not get paid overtime. This practice is inaudible of in most companies. Very rarely are employees willing to work extra hour and not be compensated with hour time pay.This is offset by the accrual of days off instead. Workers are also willing to move away from plateful for extended periods of time and work long hours. All of these things create job stability for the employees and help reduce layoffs. BMW is the leader in car customization. They are able to complete over 170,000 changes a month in their orders. This is unheard of in the car manufacturing industry. Such changes would set other manufacture back months but BMW is able to make the changes and stay on schedule receivable to the dedication of its employees.Other manufactures are looking to BMW to try to duplicate this address but have yet to reach this level. BMW is the leader of the pact when it comes to designing and employees moral. More companies regardless of their industry need to follow this awesome example of teamwork. They would be able to produce more and spend less which is ever the goal when running a business. After reading this case I see why over 200,000 people apply for a do there yearly. It seems like a great place to work and grow.

Emergence of Tele-education

Tele- informational activity has a long history beginning with corpses like that for t for to each one oneing children in Australian Outback, the British Open University and separate(a) such(prenominal) organizations. These construct on the idea of correspondence courses where course materials argon sent sporadically by post and augmented the experience with broadcasts either on radio liquidator or on TV. The business of schoolchild isolation was addressed partly by kernel of techniques such as telephone feeler or nonpartisan radio links with teachers. At the end of 1980s, the vest majority of out remoteness genteelness throughout the worlds was still primarily print-based.Technologies used for distance pedagogy atomic tour 18 evolving from primarily one- itinerary technologies and occupations such as figure machine assisted skill, computer based training and computer aided instruction, to more(prenominal) twain-party technologies and applications such as computer mediated communications and computer conferencing dusts for education.

Technological advances will make pathrooms mush more accessible and impressive. Today, schoolroom education dominates instruction from elementary school to potassium alum school. This mode has remained popular for a very long duration and will probably persist as the most common mode of education.However, classroom education has its problems, that is the effectiveness decline with increase in the tally of students per class. former(a) pressures shanghai the instructors, galore(postnominal) of whom are non experts in the material they must(prenominal) teach, are not impregnable performers in class, or simply are not interested in teaching.

It is ready that, this kind of transmission technique having some(prenominal) problems or defects. Mostly, problems raised(a) during the application of the system. One of the signifi behindt problems raised is that, for the multipoint transmission, the signals or information transfer by the sender do not completely standard by the assembler.This problem is might be due to error that occurs during the transmission of the signals or information. some other problem is lag of transmission. For this case, the signals or information transmitted do n ot arrive at all the receiver at the corresponding time, for example, the suspicion raised by the lecturingr might not received by the students at the said(prenominal) time and this is not a good surround for Tele-education system. Some receiver receives the signals earlier than the others and some later or dismantle not receives at all. Therefore, it is important to study the Tele-education technology from time to time to overcome these problems so that the Tele-education system could provide a more effective way of encyclopedism environment.In order to commit a lecture from, for example, a very famous professor from other coun study would require him to come at our place. merely the amount of money spent for pay him to sire lecture would be very expensive and this to a fault would be amaze troublesome for him. However, this problem pot be solved with Tele-education system in which the professor does not need to go anywhere else to give his lecture. This would but a lot of expenses and time.Another reason is that, in traffic pattern classes the knowledge process would not be very effective if the number of students in a class is very big. This is because the lector alone can not coordinate such a considerable class. With Tele-education system, one lecturer could deliver his lecture to as many students as possible efficaciously in a way that a large number of students from diverse sites having the same lecture at once.The purpose of this research is to study the current Tele-education system that has been applied in some countries. This study covers the background of Tele-education that is its definition, the publications of Tele-education that is any cover that discuss about Tele-education as a whole, the performance of applied Tele-education, and also the technology of Tele-education that is its network architecture.

Therefore, the easiest and the fastest way to stack up information relating this project is via the Internet. I have surfed and found many kindle sites that discuss about Tele-education. in like manner surfing, I also have contacted several population who are involved in this area, Tele-education, by email .

Before discussing about what Tele-education means, lets look at what distance learning is. This is because Tele-education and distance learning are very related to each other. standoffishness learning is the acquisition of skills and knowledge through electronic communications that allow student and instructor to be separate in either in time or spot. The to distance learning is asynchronous learning which can be defined loosely as learning at divers(prenominal) time. It is a highly flexible method of training because the sender and receiver do not need to be synchronized in space or time. But Tele-education is more than that of distance learning. In Tele-education, not merely asynchronous but synchronous learning is also made possible. In other words, Tele-education is the evolution of distance learning.As stated before, asynchronous learning environment is not real-time environment. It is a self-study-based application and is accessed via the Internet to a server. The destiny to the student is simply an ordinary PC with standard packet and Internet access. This application is applicable for a large amount of users who can access the course independent of each other. The combination of the lecture-part, group-work-part, and self-study-part is another instance of Tele-education learning environment, which is synchronous learning. It is a real-time environment. In this environment, students and lecturers can interact with each other simultaneously.Tele-education use the technology of video teleconference that allows two or more parties at different geographical area to interact with each other or to have learning process together. But people usually get confused whether video teleconferencing can be considered as Tele-education as well. Tele-education is actually different with video teleconferencing in a way that Tele-education usually involve a large numbe r of people as compared to video teleconferencing, that is, it is in video teleconferencing many people use a single monitor to see other people at other area but in Tele-education, students have their own monitor that can be used not only to see their lecturer and colleagues but also to send and receive educational materials.Emergence of Tele-educationTele-education has a long history beginning with systems like that for teaching children in Australian Outback, the British Open University and other such organizations. These built on the idea of correspondence courses where course materials are sent periodically by post and augmented the experience with broadcasts either on radio or on TV. The problem of student isolation was addressed partially through techniques such as telephone access or two-way radio links with teachers. At the end of 1980s, the vest majority of distance education throughout the worlds was still primarily print-based.Technologies used for distance education are evolving from primarily one-way technologies and applications such as computer aided learning, computer based training and computer aided instruction, to more two-way technologies and applications such as computer mediated communications and computer conferencing systems for education. The significance of two-way technologies is that they allow foe interaction between participant and tutors, and perhaps even more significantly amongst participant themselves. This development has allowed and in some senses force researches to look more closely at the impact of educational environment, on the students learning experience.In the future, it is expected that the telecommunications-based technologies to become the primary means of delivery of distance teaching. The reasons for this are as followsa much wider range of technologies are becoming more accessible to potential distance education participantsthe costs of technological delivery are dropping dramaticallythe technology is becoming easier to use for both tutors and learnersthe technology is becoming more powerful pedagogicallyeducation centers will find it increasingly difficult to resist the political and social pressures of the technological imperatives.The Emergence of Tele-educationRadical changes in the computing infrastructure, spurred by multimedia computing and communication, will do more than extend the educational system, that is revolutionize it. Technological advances will make classrooms mush more accessible and effective. Today, classroom education dominates instruction from elementary school to graduate school. This method has remained popular for a very long time and will probably persist as the most common mode of education.However, classroom education has its problems, that is the effectiveness decline with increase in the number of students per class. Other pressures affect the instructors, many of whom are not experts in the material they must teach, are not good performers in class, or si mply are not interested in teaching. The biggest limitation of the classroom instruction is that a class meets at a particular time in a particular place. This essentially requires all students and the instructors to collect in one spot for their specified period. But with the emerging technology, these problems can be overcome.Reasons for studying Tele-educationThe current Tele-education systems that have been applied in some countries are generally of multipoint transmission technique. It is found that, this kind of transmission technique having several problems or defects. Mostly, problems raised during the application of the system. One of the significant problems raised is that, for the multipoint transmission, the signals or information transmitted by the sender do not completely received by the receiver.This problem is might be due to error that occurs during the transmission of the signals or information. Another problem is lag of transmission. For this case, the signals or information transmitted do not arrive at all the receiver at the same time, for example, the question raised by the lecturer might not received by the students at the same time and this is not a good environment for Tele-education system. Some receiver receives the signals earlier than the others and some later or even not receives at all. Therefore, it is important to study the Tele-education technology from time to time to overcome these problems so that the Tele-education system could provide a more effective way of learning environment.In order to have a lecture from, for example, a very famous professor from other country would require him to come at our place.

A Case Study on “Managing Like a Man at Silkqueen?”

executive SUMMARY This is the grimace study on Managing like a reality at SilkQueen? by Kate Hutchings of Queensland University of Technology. Here we ar given a source named fling Dawson who take to the woodss for SilkQueen, which is an Australian company. She is a well skilled charabanc who has a huge experience for operative successfully in Asia. However, working in this company as a humannessager, she facing some problems, which give way her to take a decision whether she leaves the company or depict to beget some smart changes. For this case study, we are exploitation four questions.We purpose all the four questions one by one respectively. In those, we try to figure out the problems confront by the employees and go, attitudes of the boldness towards quip, ways untied for fling. We as well as discuss about cross-cultural problems here. We also include a bibliography at the end. Company Profile SilkQueen is an Australian Company. Its main product is fabrics. I t produces mellow quality fabrics and sell those doneout the world. SilkQueens manufacturing plants are situated in Sydney as well as in several locations throughout Asia.This company started its dividing bound as a family-owned company in 1910 and it started its international operations in 1979. The workforce of SilkQueen always female-dominated scarce maximum time management has been male-dominated. cranny Dawson has been working for SilkQueen for many years and most of the time she was expending her times working in Asia. It should be noted that she is quite successful in her career. Recently she has been posted to Australia and she is facing some problems with her employees.Although, the productivity is increased but the management is not quite satisfied with her work because the workers are miss there. In this case study, we have to find out the problems faced by the employees and fracture and the probable solutions for those problems. For this purpose, we are using fo ur questions. They are as follows 1)From the perspective of the employees, what problems they are facing? 2)What are the problems faced by scissure and what could the face have done to address her problems? 3)What could Sally do to change her draws ardour? )why Sallys draws style is questioned in Australia and real in Asia? Now we are discussing the above questions with a lot to analyzing the case study. Because of globalization and workforce diversity, the nature of management in an validation has considerably changed all over the years. Nowadays, management is not only about exercise reasonable power using directing loss leaders but also about building relationships with employees, adapting leadership styles depending on situations, and working together with concourse from various cultural backgrounds.To construe the management terrain in the various areas of organisational manner mentioned above, the objective of this paper is to analyses the case study, Managing like a man at SilkQueen? and provide insights on the problems encountered by Sally Dawson, the employees and the organization at SilkQueen. The paper willing starting signal focus on perception stereotyping and ascendance effect to explain how the employees perceive the situation and Sallys leadership. The problems faced by Sally will be next looked into to envision how the organization could have helped in various areas.Theories on improving leadership styles will be employ to explain why Sallys leadership approach is accepted in Asia but not in Australia. psyche One From the perspective of the employees, what problems they are facing? To recognize the problems met by the employees of SilkQueen, an summary of their perception of the former line manager Mr. Wong will be compulsory. This is because the perspicacity of Sally by employees is partly found on comparison with Wong. fit to the employees perception, Wong is an in force(p) leader who is consultative, caring and carry oned about their well-being.He is seen as valuing employees opinion as he always asked what the employees think before he does anything. Unlike Wong, Sally does not walk around the factory al-Qaeda or show concerns for her employees. She does not ask what the employees think before she implements anything. The employees hence perceive Sally to be a poor manager who does not care about employees work condition and who buries herself behind a highschool desk with her back to the door in an office both levels above. These perceptions merely may not be true.According to organizational way scholars, women are evaluated negatively when they adopt a stereotypically male leadership style and fill traditionally male-dominated positions. The employees in the case assume that Sally being a woman should be nurturing and care about their workers suggesting preconceived notions of how women should behave. This notion of stereotyping stack result in misinterpretation of disciplin e because not all citizenry are the same, and many in the same social category may demonstrate inconsistencies with the stereotype.Question Two What are the problems faced by Sally and what could the organization have done to address her problems? The first action by Sally in make a decision to change the work hours without consultation with the employees formed a lasting video of her leadership, known as the primary effect the primary effect relates to a perceptual torturing which states that first impressions are lasting impressions and once an inaccurate first impression is established, it is difficult for the perception to change even when new information contradicts the first impression.The consequence of Sallys non-consultative management style spells the beginning of a problematic relationship with her workers. Within common chord months after she took over line management, Sally is faced with considerable indifference and hostility from her subordinates. In admittance to his pressure, Sally also has to change the focus of her work when she took up the berth of line management in the manufacturing operations-an area which she is unfamiliar with. Because of this, she has to work extensive hours with very little time for social life, resulting in increased stress.Sallys problems and stress could have been substantially reduced if the organization has vie a supportive role. A good organization should first revalue its managers strengths and weaknesses before assigning new roles. This may be done through a structured interview process or through research and information gathering with the objective to understand two areas of managerial competencies- past behavior to predict incoming behavior, and recent behavior to predict distant past behavior.By understanding Sallys former experiences and roles, the organization can then decide whether to assign her to some other area of to send her to a leadership development program much(prenominal) as the leadership grid to train her in evaluating task- point and mint oriented leadership to work out a style beaver desirable for her new role. Question Three What could Sally do to improve her leadership style? Notwithstanding this fact, however, Sally should cultivate her emotional intelligence to admonisher her own and others feeling and emotions to guide her thinking and action.According to behavioral theories by Ohio state studies and University of Michigan studies, there are primarily two categories of leadership populate oriented, and task-oriented. The behavioral studies propose a managerial grid base on a managers concern for people and concern for production, which ideal grid position rates the manager as performing best when the style of leadership is high on people and task dimensions. In the case of SilkQueen, Sally could improve her leadership style by adapting a more people-oriented behavioral approach.To influence her subordinates, she could consider using acciden t leadership based on the idea that the most enchant leadership style depends on the situation. Theories of chance leadership that Sally could use include Hersey-Blanchard situational hypothesis, houses path-goal theory, and Vroom-Jago leadership appointment theory. The Hersey-Blanchard situational theory proposes that effective leadership is dependent on the pursual. This means that regardless of what the leader does, it is the actions or acceptation of the abetter _or_ abettors that decide the effectiveness of the leader.This theory suggests that the leader should change his or her leadership style according to the maturity of the pursual and the situation. Situational theory combines task and relationship behaviors and identifies four specific leadership styles telling, selling, dynamic and delegating. Based on the maturity of the followers, each of the relevant four styles is used by the leader to respond to the employees by gradually declining control over activities and relationship behavior.For example, when an employee is new to the organization, the leader should use the style of telling the follower what to do, giving clear and specific directions. Depending on the maturity stage of the follower, alternate styles such as selling the leaders ideas, participating in decision-making, or delegating responsibilities to the follower may next be used. In the case of SilkQueen, using the situational theory approach would have helped Sally understand that leadership is dependent on the followers and the way to lead followers is dependent on situations and levels of maturity.Instead of telling the employees, Sally could use the mode of selling and participating in implementing the change of work hours. The path-goal theory certain by Robert House is another contingency theory model that Sally could employ in improving her leadership style. The theory suggests that an effective leader is one who can influence employee satisfaction and performance by m aking their need satisfaction contingent with the overall objectives of the class or organization. quaternion styles of effective leadership are indentified in this model directive, supportive, participative, and achievement-oriented.A directive leader lets subordinates know what is expected, giving directions on what to do and how, while a supportive leadership shows concern for the needs of subordinates. A participative leader consults with subordinates and involves them in decision making, while an achievement-oriented leader sets the goals and expects subordinates to perform at their highest level. Using the path-goal theory, Sally could effectively change the perception of her subordinates by building a people oriented behavioral approach through the use of a more supportive and participative leadership style instead of an achievement-oriented leadership.The third model of contingency theory that could be used by Sally is the Vroom-Jago leader participation theory. This theor y developed by Victor Vroom and Alfred Jago takes a contingency approach to determine the optimal level of employee involvement depending on the situation. It proposes choosing the best decision making method for any problem situation through alternatives such as separate or authority decision, consultative decision, group or consensus decision.The model considers five levels of employee participation based on a decision tree ranging from autocratic at the blow over to team consensus at the bottom. Following the leader-participation theory model, Sally could evaluate the level of participation requisite by her in choosing the optimal level of employee involvement. Instead of using the top two levels of the decision tree, that proposes autocratic decision-making. Sally could use the bottom three levels of consultative and group decision in her approach. Question Four Why Sallys leadership style is questioned in Australia and accepted in Asia?As can be seen in the theories discusse d above, one of the traits required of an effective leader is adaptability of leadership styles in varied situations. Adapting styles to situations however is not an belatedly task especially in organizations today where employees are made up of people from different cultures across national and regional boundaries. In the case of SilkQueen, it is apparent that Sallys leadership is seen as questionable in Australia, but appropriate in Asia because of cross-cultural perspectives.This underlying cultural value may be translated as power blank space, uncertainty, avoidance, individualism versus collectivism, achievement versus nurturing orientation, and long-run versus short-term orientation according to Hofstedes dimensions of national culture. Using Hofstedes framework as the guideline to cross-cultural comparison in SilkQueens case study, employees in Australia may be seen as high in individualism, high on social obligations and traditions, but moderately low in power distance.Th is rating vastly differs from countries in Asia such as Indonesia, Malaysia, and China. In Indonesia, individual goals are seen as less important than collective goals. In Malaysia, power distance ranks high while in China the future is emphasized more than tradition or social obligations. Based on the ranking described above, it is easy to understand why Sallys task oriented leadership style is questioned in Australia but accepted in Asia. According to Hofstedes framework, Australia is more inclined to meeting individual goals than group goals and expects relatively equal power sharing.In Asia, power distance is generally high, which means that receiving commands from superiors are commonly accepted. Conclusion Throughout the tidings in this paper, the studies of organizational behavior have been primarily focused in four areas perception, leadership styles, leadership assessment, and cross-cultural behaviors. The perception of leadership based on stereotype and primacy effect can present inaccuracies and incorrect information of a situation or a person.A manager who wants to be effective must cultivate emotional intelligence and be supple to adapt different leadership styles depending on the situation. A good organization must first assess its leaders to understand past behavior to predict future behaviors and bridge the gap of its leaders through leadership grid training. To manage a global organization, the leader must understand the differences in cross-cultural values across different parts of the world. Bibliography Robbins, P. Stephen, Judge, A.

American Me †Poem Essay

The poem American Me, indite by Ninfa Miranda-Maloney, tells the story of a Mexican immigrant who comes to the United States to live the American aspiration. The generator incorporates ethnic aspects with her use of Spanish words sprinkled in amongst the poem. With his disgorge shine shoes (Miranda-Maloney, n. d, line 10) and brillantina-slick grit hair (Miranda-Maloney, n. d. , line 11), a picture is painted of a childly valets hook in himself as he begins the journey of a lifetime. This is a young man ready for his new life in America. The tone chop-chop changes, however, as he probably soon realizes that the dream is not what he had in mind.In San Eli, w here(predicate) he lived on thank yous and maybes (Miranda-Maloney, n. d. , line 23), the referee gets the sense that the man was taken advantage of and worked hard for little compensation. The just about powerful lines in the poem ar kissed your white land, broke my back, swither a simply a(prenominal) tears for a piece of the dream (Miranda-Maloney, n. d. , lines 27, 28, 29). The author has incorporated a racial aspect in the poem by showing referring to the white land. This is not his land, this is the white land. He is doing back breaking labor for whites, probably not what he expected as the young man full of hope chasing the American dream.The author excessively includes social kind aspects in this poem. The poem ends with the man, now here in the United States for fifty days, still smelling the onions on his fingertips. (Miranda-Maloney, n. d. ) This leads me to believe the man is still working in the onion fields fifty years after arriving in the United States. A generalization can be make that a person from a lower social class would need to continue to work past retirement age to founder ends meet. I grew up in a poor neighborhood in California. My community included many immigrants here in the United States both illegally and legally.The immigrants I have known throughout my lif e are generally proud Americans, though there are the few that modernize bitter because their American ideals and dreams have not been met. They work hard doing tall(prenominal) work for little money and not much appreciation. While I dont personally identify with the poem, I am sufficient to sympathize with the character as he could represent a identification number of people I know. My grandmother emigrated to California before my mother was born. She came to the States with the dream of giving her children a better life than the one theyd believably have in El Salvador.Throughout my life, shes told me the stories of moving here and settling the family in the area. It was gruelling for her, working many hours as a maid, but she did it for the benefit of her children. Many times throughout her first few years in the states, she considering going back home. The dream she envisioned was hardly her reality at first. I cant imagine how difficult it would be to go to a different c ountry where you dont speak the language or know the culture but it happens on a regular basis in this country. At the end of the day, the United States is a country made up of immigrants, most of which are just chasing the dream as well.

Kilye Harrel news Ms. Vogel British Literature 13 celestial latitude 2010 Winnie the Pooh Christopher robin redbreast. automobile horn. dassie. Kanga. Roo. Eeyore. Tigger. piglet. Winnie the Pooh. Most Americans know who these characters argon they probably grew up reading or so these characters at home or maybe even in school. These public characters have been around for many years. E in truthbody has a favorite character in these stories that they can relate to in whatsoever lovely of way. In the Winnie the Pooh stories, altogether(prenominal) character represents a different give awaylook on life and constitution from which young readers can learn intimately other pot and themselves.The unless human character in the Winnie the Pooh stories is Christopher Robin. Christopher Robin is a young boy around eight years gray-haired. He is the son of Alan Alexander Milne the reservoir of all(prenominal) the Winnie the Pooh stories. He has br possess hair The characters i n the Winnie the Pooh stories were originated from stuffed animals belonging to Christopher Robin. To me he is loving of manage the hero in the falsehood. Christopher a great deal calls Pooh silly old bear(How Winnie The Pooh Works). When Pooh and the other animals are in trouble or in need of second, the animals know that Christopher Robin will ceaselessly be there.He tries to exculpate his superstars problems and he usually solves if not all and some of their problems. Christopher and his animals friends love to go on contingencys in the Hundred Acre Woods where they live.

He tries to put across useful advice and suggestions. His words of wisdom usually devolve buns and fleck him in the exceptt. He loves to read books that are going to make him wiser such as dictionaries and encyclopedias.When Pooh or 1 of the other characters go over to schnozzles abide to get them to go away he often says well I must get back to my encyclopedia (Hoff 42). Owl will tell stories to guests and anyone who will listen. When he starts telling a story he tends to just go on and on. When he starts going on and on is usually when Pooh and the other animals will try and seek away. Owl can really be a real bore sometimes. He has the brains in the stories. He has the wisdom. Rabbit is always cranky and concerned that person is going to mess up his beautiful garden. Tiger is usually the one that messes up his garden. He is truly stubborn.Rabbit is actually pushy and likes to make his own decisions. He is also a great speller compared to the other animals. He is very concerned approximately the important things in life. He happens to like a very serene life with no surprises. Although Tigger and Pooh bring him jackpot of surprises. Rabbit loves gardening and his favorite thing to grow is carrots and other vegetable s. He makes sure that he avoids Pooh during lunch time, so that Pooh doesnt eat allthing from his garden. Rabbit is very smart. He actually makes in clear in a communication with Owl where he says You and I have brains. The others have fluff(Mander).He thinks he the smartest animal in the One Hundred Acre Woods. Rabbit and Owl are the only real animals in the story. The others are stuffed animals. Kanga is the motherly figure in the story. She is the voice of reason. She is the mother of a baby kangaroo named Roo. She is always very helpful. She comforts all of the other animals when they are feeling low or run through virtually something. She is the fastest animal in the One Hundred Acre Woods. She carries her family in a pocket that is on the front of her body. She is always warning her son Roo about the dangers in the adventures that he goes on with Tiger and the other animals.Kanga is always saying Now now Roo, you mustnt do that dear to which Roo generally replies that m oma (Mander).

He loves discovering new things in life. Dont let his age fool you. He often expresses his intellections that make him grave a lot wiser and older then he really is. He is kind of like a myopic kid in pre-school because, he is steady in trouble. Eeyore is my favorite character in the story. He is about three years old. He is a very gloomy donkey. He is hardly ever happy but his grumpiness might come from having a tail pined in his butt all of the time. Eeyore doesnt see himself as gloomy. He just has low expectations.

Tigger doesnt mean to but he always messes up Rabbits garden. Tigger is always looking at to make the best out of what life has to offer. The most wonderful thing about Tiggers is that Im the only one (Mander). Tigger is very hyperactive. He loves trying to help others with their problems. He also takes a lot of pleasure in existence able to unbounce some of the other animals in the One Hundred Acre Woods(Mander). He has a very fun loving personality. Tigger is a one of the very loved animals in the One Hundred Acre Woods.Everybody loves him except for rabbit. He drives Rabbit insane . When Tigger finds out something exciting he cant wait to go and tell his friends about it. Piglet is a very small little pink pig. Hes very shy and hunted of everything. But at the same time he is very brave. He always wears a long pink stripy shirt. Piglet loves to go on adventures with his best friend Winnie the Pooh. He loves aglitter(predicate) colors and balloons. But his favorite thing to do is blow dandelions. The starting signal thing that Piglet utters when he gets up in the morning is I wonder whats going to happen exciting today? (Mander).Piglet is very afraid of the dark. Whenever Piglet gets scared he often says Oh, d-d-d-dear(Meet the Characters). Even though Piglet is a very small animal, he will earmark his fears to help his friends (How Winnie the Pooh Works). Even though Piglet is so small He has a very big heart and loves all of his friends very much. Winnie the Pooh is a very friendly and loving bear. He goes by Pooh or Pooh bear.

He tries to get honey from beehives also and bees always chase him for trying to take their honey. Pooh has very little brains and with tell you that himself. He does a lot of silly things. He is friend with everyone in the One Hundred Acre Woods. The first thing Pooh says when he wakes up in the morning is whats for breakfast(Mander). He loves going on adventure with Christopher Robin, Piglet and all of the other animals. Pooh is always looking for Hunny to Fill the Rumblee in his Tumblee(Mander).Pooh is also a hero in a way. But when people think of Pooh, they think kind, loving, sweet, helpful, friendly old bear. At the end of all these wonderful stories Christopher Robin has to go off to school to learn the alphabet and h ow to write. School becomes important to Christopher Robin and he doesnt have time to spend with Pooh and the other animals. His childhood was ending, but his friends did not change one single little bit. They understood that Christopher Robin had to go to school to learn so that he could come back and teach them new things. Such as the alphabet, reading, and how to write.But because the animals are true friends they did not get mad a t Christopher Robin for leaving them behind. I think that the lesson in these stories is that friendship is a very important thing in life that everybody needs. Everybody needs a friend that they know will be there through slow and thin. There are several other lessons in these stories. Like everyone has a hero or that everybody can conquer their fears. Everyone reads these stories when there little but when they get older they recognize the real meanings and lessons in the story.Works Cited Disney.

My Life as a Superhero Essay

I just expect originality, I want to be different from the people around me. The conventional life go to school, go to college, be a nurse resembling the otherwise cousins, get married, be a good Catholic wife with trine children and be completely conformative never once appealed to me. The ability to be cut superhuman, to be able to go down in history for making a difference, thats the kind of life I want. Whether it be by musical comedy impact or donating six billion Euro to charities, I want to be different, I want to be me besides in superhuman form, Id exact all my little quirks and mannerisms more over with a nonher side, a side that inspires people, that would make people want to be better.Lately Ive been pondering the subject of superheroes. Everyone has their favourite mine is caught between Batman and Thor and I cite up everyone at some quantify has fantasized about macrocosmness one. I get along I have, and so oftentimes do.Of course, unlike Batman, wh o uses cunning, strength, battle experience and a strangely cool mental make-up to his advantage, or uses his mind oer matter attitude, if you prefer. Im thinking that having superpowers might be one of the requirements of the job. Unfortunately, close of the powers that are of interest to me, especially the ability to release space, stop time and invisibility, have been taken. Whats a fledging superhero to do?I flirted with shape shifting or the ability to manipulate the weather. I suasion about being able to communicate with animals, but other than being very Dr. Doolittle-ish, how would that come in ready to hand(predicate) when trying to save the man? It wouldnt. No, it would have to something formidable, something to strike fear through the veins of my enemies.So, after much thought, Ive decided that I want to be able to transform myself into every element, wind, rain, fire, the Periodic Table, whatever, which I think would really come in handy as a superhero. It could al so cause some problems, which is perfectly fine, because most superheroes are flawedin some way and their powers can often be a curse to them. I dont want to be every exception, a perfect life would be to a fault boring for me.Being able to change into any element would not only be a cool power to show off, but it would be extremely practical too. If someone is shooting at me, I can turn myself to iron and not only dodge the bullets being shot my way, but bounce them back. If Im being tail I can quite conveniently turn to steam and affirm away.The same practicality applies if I want to sneak into a room. Id just turn to smoke and go through the keyhole. And if I cont remainder to escape a sticky situation I can sales booth above a sewer grate and turn to water, reconstituting when I take out the pool below. There are no limits to how useful a tool this could be. Being able to transform myself like this makes me almost invincibleWhich could be a problem. It may be too perfect. My powers would have to have a flaw. For instance, maybe I can only retain my transformation for a certain amount of time, say five minutes. Maybe I a great deal find that messy circumstances only get messier because she cant retain her powers, who knows, I could probably end up utterly unable(p) to use them at allI would eventually learn that, like the Force of Star Wars fame, my powers could grow through time, practice and training. Like any dedicated student, I would constantly be working at skills she doesnt quite understand. Maybe I would find a Yoda-like mentor to table service me control and strengthen my powers.I also need to take into regard just how many elements I could transform into. It may be interest to be able to run the Gambit (The most epic X-Man on that point is) of the metals it could be fun to turn into titanium, although the consequence could easily be that I only live a half-life or something like that, which sounds problematic. that it would certainly add to the fabric of my life. I may never have to turn to anything but myself, but I could change if I treasured to.Practicality states that it would have to be a solid element and nothing colourless, inodorous or tasteless what good is it to become hydrogen? At premiere glance you might also think there would be no practical reason to transform into halogens or any of the Noble Gasses. But, come to think of it, if I wanted to light up a temperamental alleyway I could just turn to neon. Of course, I dont actually turn to neon. Maybe my body just starts to glow brightly.Of course, I would have to have a back story. I would have to apologise how I discover my powers. You just dont wake up one day made of superhero-material. Perhaps Im a physicist. Maybe its night and Im working in the lab alone. Maybe theres an accident and an explosion sends a white-hot fireball right towards me. Unable to move in time I instinctively turn to iron, saving me from the flames rushing harmlessly by. In the aftermath I lie on the floor, gazing in amazement and suspicion at my metallic body. This is interesting, I think before I chop-chop return to my human form. But Im shook at what just happened, not comprehending whether it actually really happened.Later, when realizing that I actually had glowering to metal, I decide to test my newfound powers, perhaps by thinking of helium. Curiously, my body doesnt inflate like a balloon, but begins to levitate, piano lifting me excitingly skyward until I am level with the ceiling. Then the powers all at once vanish and I crash to the floor below.Hmmm, maybe Im on to something hereMy mam and I have discussed this theory at length, glide slope up with stupid names like Elementary and such but we never really came to a final decision, I suppose Id have to just let the people decide what to call me. Honestly, I cant help but fantasise over this topic all day long but in the end I always come back to the same statementIf its meant to be, wait. It will happen.So I suppose Ill just halt on waiting

Mozart’s “Clarinet Quintet” and Mahler’s Symphony no.1 in D major “Titan” Essay

The medicine of the classical and amatory time is a period of time where it bases the development and antithetic styles of symphony. This back tooth be shown through the manipulation of melodic elements, (dynamics, pitch, step, daily round, texture, meter, tonality, anatomical social organisation, melody, harmony, instrument) while contrasting them, unless it arouse withal be shown through the composers of the medicine, the size of the orchestra, melodic directions, aroused content, and no.-musical developments through that period of time.After the Renaissance and the baroqueness term, the neoclassic era soon followed at around the 1720-1820s. During these times in Europe, in that respect were some(prenominal) non musical developments, ideas of the en aerialenment, political issues, scientific discoveries and the reexamination of established ideas, including the existence of God. some(prenominal) of these ideas and has got huge impact on the heavy Monumental b aroque style and later developed with a more than(prenominal) intimate rococo style, with its light colors, curved lines, and graceful ornaments, which greatly resembles the classical period. Shortly after the absolute period, the amative era appe atomic number 18d during the 1820-1900s. At these times, non-musical developments such as cultural movements potently expressed emotion, imagination, and individuality. People such as romantic painters and writer overmuch emphasized the freedom of t matchless they often saw political novelty as a reflection of their own struggles for artistic freedom. This had made a huge impact on sentimentalist music, because the steamy subjectivity glowering into a basic quality of Romanticism.Comparing the musical elements of Classical era and Romantic era, we would nonice the many differences, and hence we shadow identify and blob the music of some(prenominal) periods. The first musical element that I impart discuss is rhythm. As we freighter opine, the rhythm of the Classical era tends to be less multiplex and quite repetitive. Classical style normally includes unforeseen pauses, syncopations, and frequent modifys from long notes to shorter notes, and the mixture from one pattern of note lengths to another(prenominal) may be either sudden or gradual. As we can see in the Finale of Mozarts Clarinet quintuplet, we can see that during all(prenominal) of those variations, the rhythms argon not rattling complex and quite repetitive, for example, the first 3 8 bars of the introduction in Mozarts Clarinet Quintet show a somewhat consistent rhythmconsisted 4 of crotchets some(prenominal)ly bar, the second variation show a consistent rhythm of 4 sets of triplets mingled with the 2nd violin and viola, the 3rd variation shows a consistent rhythm of 4 sets of semi-quavers in each bar, with the clarinet normally.Through what I get hold of describe just now, one could see that the pattern of note lengths have step by step changed to shorter and shorter, in this case, from 4 crotchets to 4 triplets to 4 semi-quavers. Also, in variations the likes of Mozarts clarinet quintuplet, triplets and syncopations can be open up oft. In contrast, romantic music tends to not emphasize that much on simple and consistent rhythms. There be often changes in the number of beats in a measure, cross-rhythms, syncopations, etc. For example in Mahlers Symphony no.1 in D major(ip) Titan, consistent notes goes against syncopations, in that location atomic number 18 accompaniments with skips and staccatos etc. (p.116)Both Classical and Romantic eras have create verbally musical directions, unlike Renaissance and Baroque which does not have any. Moreover, I have observe that the musical directions of some(prenominal) find faults have extreme differences. As we see in Mahlers symphonic music no.1 in D major titan 3rd movement, there are many write musical directions dynamic, wound up, pacing dire ctions. For example, in the first 20 bars, there are already 7 written musical directions, whereas in Mozarts clarinet quintet, there are extremely keen amounts of written musical directions, plainly 2 written musical directions in the first 20 bars. This significantly shows that there are differences in the use of written musical directions in the Classical and Romantic era.Classical and Romantic music has differences in melodies and structures too. In classical music, the structures emphasize more the grace of proportion and balance, self-denial and control polished and elegance in character with expressiveness and formal structure held in perfect balance. Furthermore, the forms do not vary as much as the Romantic era, they had forms like sonatas, symphonies etc. The melodic phrases are commonly balanced and symmetrical made up of two phrases of the same length. For an example, in Mozarts Clarinet Quintet, the music is real symmetrical and well balanced, in a variation form.H owever, in Romantic music, they rather emphasize on the emotional content than trying to sound balanced and symmetrical, and expanded their use of forms and fixd wise forms, like impromptu, ballade,etude, nocturnes etc,. Moreover, the melodies normally have either really long or short phrases, increased in footslog, moreover also increased in chromaticism. For example in Mahlers symphony no.1 in D major Titan, we can see that except it is in a ABA form, the self-coloured movement was not as symmetrical and well balanced as the Mozart, although it is in a variation form, the melodic phrases have increased in array, are either really long, for example in the first 18 bars, or really short, where the melody can be hardly seen in bar 134-137.Classical and Romantic era are very different in the use of harmonies too. In Classical music, harmonies were formed from the chords. If the chords in a music composition are all major chords, then the harmonies would create emotions that expr ess bright, happy and positive feelings, in contrast, if the chords are all pincer chords, then the harmony would express the emotion which is sad and depressed, negative feelings. However, in Romantic music, harmonies are more complex due to the development of the complex chords. For example, a diminished chord that is usually found in Romantic music would create a harmony that is rarely found in Classical music. In general, the use of harmonies is very different in both Classical and Romantic music.Another difference I have noticed amidst Classical and Romantic music is the cooking stove of dynamics used. In the Classical era, the dynamic diverge normally used was between pp ff. This range was expanded in the Romantic period, ranging from pppp ffff. This difference can be on the face of it proven in Mozarts Clarinet Quintet, where the range was kept within the range of p f, a small range of pitch in each part of instruments. However, in Mahlers symphony no. 1 in D major ti tan, the range of dynamics increased to pppp f, with a big range of dynamics in each of the instrumental parts. In general, the range of pitch of Classical and Romantic era varies when the classical as small range of dynamics, whilst the Romantic as a larger range of dynamics.The range of pitch of the Classical and Romantic era is used very other than too. In the classical era, the range pitch is not as big as the Romanic era, as he range of pitch in the Romantic era was expanded, as the composers seekfor more extreme noble and low sounds. For example in Finale of Mozarts Clarinet Quintet as a Classical song, the range of pitch of the whole song was only D2 C6 with little range of pitch in every instrumental part, except the range of pitch in Mahlers symphony no. 1 in D major, as a Romantic song, is B1- D6, with a very broad range in every instrumental part. In general, the range of pitch of Classical and Romantic era varies when the classical as small range of pitch, whilst the Romantic as a larger range of pitch.The tempo of classical era and Romantic Era is used very other than too. In the Classical era, the tempo only changed when there are written musical directions to change the mood, but tempo of Romantic music changed the mood constantly with not only the written musical directions, which is often underlined by Accelerando, Ritardando, and subtle variations of pace but there are many more fluctuations in tempo than there are in Classical music, which they also intensify their emotions by using effect of Rubato. As we can see in Mozarts clarinet quintet, there are only 3 written musical directions Allegretto con Variationi, which delegacy a little lively, jolly fast, with variation, Adagio which means at ease slow, and allegro, which means cheerful or brisk but commonly interpreted as fast, lively, and there are no written musical directions which guide the tempo within the scores.However, in Mahlers symphony no. 1 in D major, there are not only m ain musical directions to guide the tempo, like Feierlich und gemessen, ohne zu schleppen, which means dignified but not too slow, but there are small ones in between the scores which appears constantly, like Zurluckhaltend which means holding back tempo, creating Rubato effect and Poco. Rit etc. These two pieces, Mozarts clarinet quintet as a Classical music, Mahlers titan as a Romantic music, clearly shows that there are significant differences in the tempo of the Classical and Romantic era, Classical with a less frequent change of tempo, Romantic with a frequent change of tempo.The texture of Classical and Romantic music can be contrasted. Classical music is essentially same for example in Mozarts Clarinet Quintet, we can see that the texture is basically homophonic, with a few that ispolyphonic, and the pieces shifted smoothly from one texture to another, like in the changes from variation 1 to variation 3, there is a gradual change from thin texture to thicker texture. In con trast, even though romantic music can be homophonic and polyphonic and most of the time between the two, the texture turns thicker, it has lots of changes in texture, more drastic and frequent, and they use a lot more instruments to exaggerate this thick and emotional content. As we can see in Mahlers symphony no.1 Titan, the texture is beauteous thick in general, due to the size of the orchestra which creates density, and during the bars of 134-137, the whole orchestra is used, which creates the acuate and climax moment. In general, although both Classical and Romantic music are mainly homophonic, the thickness of the texture is contrasted significantly.Chromaticism was also used differently in the Classical and Romantic era. In the classical era, melodic chromaticism was used frequently ( particularly by Mozart) to balance the harmonic plainness. In its simplest form of chromatic scales, it occurs a lot in unaccented passing notes. Melodic chromaticism does not usually affect th e harmony it is mainly used for color-modification of diatonic notes, to add olfactory property color by composers. However, Romantic music generally uses chromaticism to form the musics harmonies and create chords. This helps the composer to expand the emotional contents and express a few different emotions of the musical piece. In general, chromaticism was used very differently in the Classical and Romantic era.Cadenza chords of Classical and Romantic music is similar, but you can say that cadenza chords of Romantic music are built on top of the cadenza chords structures of Classical music. In Classical music, they generally have a cadenza chord structure of I V I. In Mozarts clarinet quintet, the cadenza chords can easily be recognized as chords I V I, as we can see in the first 16 bars. In Mahlers symphony no.1 in D major titan however, the cadenza consist of only chord I from bar 158 to the end, 11 bars all written in chord I. This type of chord structure is seldom found i n Classical music, because Classical music usually ends a piece of music in an authentic cadence, plagal cadence, or deceptive cadence. In Romantic music,these cadences are still used, but composers like to end their music in their own unique way, just like Mahlers symphony no. 1 in D major.Another difference that I have noticed between Classical and Romantic music is the size of their orchestra. In a Classical orchestra, there are normally only 20-60 players, which pack strings 1st & 2nd violins, violas, cellos, double basses. Woodwinds 2 flutes, 2 oboes, 2 clarinets, 2 bassoons. Brass 2 French horns, 2 trumpets. Percussion 2 timpani. However, towards this end of the Romantic era, the orchestra might have included around atomic number 6 musicians.The constant expansion of the orchestra reflected composes changing needs as well as the growing size of concert halls and opera houses, due to technological advances. The brass, wood and percussion sections of the orchestra took on a m ore active role, calling for trombones, tubas, and more horns and trumpets. The woodwind took on new tone colors such as contrabassoon, bass clarinet, English horn and piccolo. Orchestral sounds became more brilliant and sensuously appealing through increase uses of cymbals the triangle and the harp.One of the most distinct differences between Classical and Romantic music is how composers express their emotion and creating emotional intensity. Composers from the Classical Period tend to focus more on the structure of music, creating music that is structural and compact in form, and captures our attention by the sweetheart and structure of the music, which usually just expresses one emotion. However, composers from the Romantic Period pore more on depicting their emotions in their music, emphasizing on expression rather then structure, expressing several different emotions.When we compare Mozarts Clarinet Quintet to Mahlers Symphony No. 1 in D major Titan, Mozarts Clarinet Quintet tends to be more focused on perfecting the harmony between the different melodies and also the structure and forms, while Mahlers Titan emphasized much more on the emotional content. In short, Classical music tends emphasize on the beauty of balanced structures, expressing one emotion, while Romantic music tends to express more emotional contents, expressing several different emotions.In general, the music of Classical and Romantic era are very different inmany ways, in all aspects of the elements, dynamics, pitch, tempo, rhythm, texture, meter, tonality, structure, melody, harmony, instrument, and especially how they express their emotional contents. However, the Classical and Romantic eras are both historical developments of western music, which significantly contributes to the music that we listen to today.ReferencesClassical music.
