...Keisha Johnson April 14, 2010 EDU 230 Jeffery Sheritti Multicultural Fieldtrip: Children’s Museum of Phoenix Visiting museums has always been an interesting experience for me since I was a child. When I would go on fieldtrips with the schools that I attended, I preferred going to museums rather than amusement parks because I enjoyed learning about the history of people and was extremely ecstatic with seeing art. When I was given this assignment I was excited, not only because I was going to go to a museum here in Phoenix, but also because I choose a museum that my five year old daughter Erica would enjoy as well. The Children’s Museum of Phoenix was by far the most interesting museum I’ve been to and the environment was also something I’ll never forget. As we arrived to the museum I was taken aback by the look of the building until I realized that it was actually a school at one point. I did some research before going and most of the reviews I saw stated that the museum was every child’s dream museum, however this resulted in it being overly crowded at times, luckily we went on a day where this wasn’t an issue for us at all. There were quite a few families there, that ranged in many different cultures and backgrounds and it made the experience more pleasant. Since the museum didn’t focus on true history and art, it made it easy for anyone from any background feel welcomed to come through the doors. The entire building, all three floors were dedicated to children playing...

...Re: Case Memo: Ethical Dilemma The ethical dilemma that I choose to write on is the dilemma about the bank teller. The dilemma states that In this dilemma if I was the other bank teller I would probably not say anything about the incident to anyone. If I were in the other bank tellers shoes I would have looked at all the possible different avenues that I could to try to gather up the ten grand for my daughter’s surgery to save her life. If I was unable to come up with the money for the surgery I would have done the same thing that this bank teller did which is taking the money from the bank. Even though it is possible and almost certain that I would be caught and suffer severe consequences of going to jail this is a choice of life or death for their daughter. Any “good” parent who says that they wouldn’t do the same is lying when they were faced with the same scenario. Yes, it would make a difference if the surgery were for one hundred dollars or if the surgery was an elective cosmetic surgery. First of all if the surgery was for one hundred dollars I am sure that this teller could fined other ways to pay for the surgery other than risking her job, life, and putting other people in a position of guilt for a hundred bucks, although again if it was the only option I would do the same if it was a matter of life and death. If it was for cosmetic surgery, which is an elective surgery that even if she did have insurance most companies would not pay for anyway it becomes...

...LEATHER COUCH By Oscar ’’Dr. Wizard’’ von Fraunhofer Im Freiburg, 24/04/2016 Englisch Prefüng There are many things I think about now when I sit and I’m restless and sweating in a fucking warm leather couch in a 80 degrees warm townhouse in the slumbering province in Baden-Württemberg where I grew up and ran away from and like many other provinces seems to be of people whose lives consists of days structured about: When you eat and when the children shit When cross eyed hairdresser Karnel Jennel on the square has holiday closed When the weather is on the news and here on if you get yelled or not get yelled which is almost obligatory under every forecast: That they don’t promise what they say that they don’t know what they are talking about that they could fucking come with some better weather than heatwaves and rain and sleet and crap with crap on and even though you already know that the weather host no possible way has a divine finger in the game that should make him able to pull any weather across the country that suits him and even if he had such a creepy divine weather finger then you already know that he won’t hear shit about what you yell at him because you sit and yell from your leather couch in Freiburg against a careless electronic box in front of the wall in the living room as standard equipment doesn’t have a microphone built in that would be able to send your complaining directly out through a giant pair of speakers ...

...For this assignment I choose to go to my local Starbucks café. I find myself very busy through out the day so the best time to go was actually during the morning at around 7:00am. Before I begin to go into detail about what I observed during my visit I will say this. I wonder if the results I got for this assignment was simply because of the time I decided to go. I say this because during the time I went most of the relationships I saw were more so business professional. I actually went in and ordered my normal Caramel Macchiato with my Classic coffee cake, I did not want it to look like I was just taking notes on the people there. I see lot’s of people rushing in to get there morning coffee with a side pastry to go, most people all appear to be in a hurry like they need to be in and out quickly. I can only assume they need to be somewhere important like work, school, or possibly an appointment. I have noticed some other people that appear to be a bit more relaxed more so just enjoying there morning. These people can be found sitting inside reading the Los Angeles Times while sipping on there hot coffee. Some people appeared to be checking up on emails or maybe even completing assignments. Because I did see a few people using there MacBook’s. All in all I find that most people are just so consumed with themselves that they are not really taking the time to actually interact with the people that are in the same room with them. Seeing lots of people all of there cell phones that...

...some information about the carport Midway had for sale because I had a brochure and I also did some research on the internet before I went to talk to a sales person. This report is based on the purchasing of a carport. Probing Questions: Open ended and close ended I told the sales person I was looking for a carport to use as a beginning structure for a horse barn. To relieve my uncertainty and doubt about this product the sales person then informed me these structures are very popular in our area for the purpose I want to use it for. I was given basic general information about the product which is the dimensions of the carport which are 18 x21x 6 including overhung boxed eaves. Additionally, there are also thirteen different colors to choose from. The salesman also gave me an initial cost for the size structure I wanted. Customer Pain/Needs and Quantitative Questions: I wanted to know the price of the carport because I have a limited budget. I also wanted upgrades or options to increase the sturdiness of the structure. I also needed to have the structure seven foot tall. I was also informed about pricing options. There is the availability of upgrading the steel posts from the standard 14 gauge steel to a 12 gauge steel to increase sturdiness which is an extra $100.00. Likewise, additional anchors are available to secure the structure to the ground. To increase the height of the structure it is an additional $50.00 per foot....

...This is my season under heaven my time to grow, to struggle, to trust and to fight. This is my time to be born, to be born to be just Kisha not daughter, not sister, not wife, not mom. Those are roles I know how to play. I can resume those roles at a later date, but now it’s time to look into the mirror of my heart. It is time for me to put away the persistent little voice that says “you can not do it”. This is time to only worry about “what I can do”. This is my time to plant the seeds of hope. I choose were to plant and I choose to rejoice in the harvest. This is my time to heal. This is my time for my family to heal. I will always embrace the power of healing. This is my time to tear down fear and walls of regret. I will clear the ground where they once stood and build new bridges that would shelter me from misfortune. No more time for mourning or for weeping I will embrace my life. Now is my time to laugh and smile. I will welcome the humor and absurdity of everyday living. This is my time to dance gracefully. This is my time to see myself through my journal of my life. It is my time to ponder on the bits of memory that this writing process has surprised me with. People, places and feeling that had been long forgotten. This is my time to search my mind, my heart, my soul for the stories that need to be...

...It reminds me of Maze Runner by James Dashner because both stories are during a futuristic time period after disaster struck leaving the cities in shambles. Also from what I can recall, both novels have similar descriptions of the world outside of theirs. The only major difference between the setting is that in James Dashner's book the city is not only in shambles but is scorching hot compared to Allegiant's setting. Science Fiction and Romance are two very strong genres in Allegiant. One of my favorite parts that highlight the romantic side of the book is when Tris and Tobias decide that they choose to stick together as a couple, not by default, but because she and Four mutually choose to. she states that " I stay with him because I choose to, every day that I wake up, every day that we fight or lie to each other or disappoint each other. I choose him over and over again, and he chooses...

...Mary Sortino Feb. 12, 2013 The film I choose is “Good Vibrations” an animated film that was found on the, The Responsibility Project website. The film is about community responsibility and what the cost are involved in being self- righteous. In the film there is a construction worker using a jackhammer to break up concrete in the street, which is causing the surrounding area shake. It is causing a loose piece of concrete shake causing people who walk by it on the sidewalk to trip and fall. In the office building across the street from where this was happing, many of the office workers were watching the people trip and fall on the loose concrete and laughing and making fun of all the people that were falling. The next person that was walking down the side walk was an older gentleman that was walking with a cane. One of the workers that was laughing at the other people that fell noticed the old man he was going to warn the gentleman about the trip hazard, but he was unable to get the window open in time. The man did not fall and stood on the loose concrete after seeing that this is a major hazard to other people. The older man keeps putting up the caution sign that keeps falling over due to the vibration of the jackhammer, before the little boy riding his bike passes over it and gets hurt from falling on the loose section of concrete. The issue in this film makes a very important point since the office employees choose to sit back and watch through the windows at the...

There was a really good chemistry between them. I could see in the look of her eyes that she really listened to him. She was a keeper! It started to get late, and I was looking forward to get home in the closet to my friends. When they were about to go, I realized that she has the most beautiful coat in the world.

...eraser. If you look at it in the front, the shape is a rectangle. If you look at its profile, it is a triangle. The design is for the capacity. There is a red plastic zipper on the top. Red is a main color of the pen bag. It is two double, and the materials are different. The outside is the soft plastic, and the inside is the hard cotton. If it is dirty, you can clean it with water, or wipe it with wet rag. If you have time, you can try to make a pen bag. It is very easy, and making one does not need much time. Firstly, you need to find some materials. You can use the old curtain, or bed sheet. If you want to make a new one, you can buy the fabric in the Wal-Mart. If you want a simple style, you can choose a pure color fabric. If you want a Korean style, you can choose a calico. Another thing you need is fusible interlining. You can buy the zipper when you buy the fabric. They should be in the same place in the Wal-Mart. The quality of the zipper is very important because its importance reflect the quality of the pen bag. The color of the zipper has better be similar as the fabric, or same as the main color of the fabric. You need some strings which color is same as the zipper. Moreover, we start to make a pen bag. You cut two cloths as 22*18 cm, and cut the fusible interlining in the same way. Then you iron them separately, one cloth with one fusible interlining. The edges of the fabric are folded inwards about 0.7cm, and stable with secure with pins. The next step...

...1. Choose either "Where Are You Going?" or "Two Kinds" and explain your reactions to your chosen story. I choose "Two Kinds" over "Where Are You Going". I kept loosing focus while reading "Where Are You Going". I have always had a hard time with reading comprehension, and I really have to engage myself to keep going. "Two Kinds" kept my interest with ease. Neither one of my parents forced me to do anything. Sure, they guided me, but they always gave me choices. They never told me they wanted me to be rich or famous, or to do things they never done. Sometimes, I wish they provided a bit more direction, maybe I wouldn't have to be taking this class so late in life. When watching some of these reality shows like "Toddlers and Tiara's", you can clearly see that the parents are in it for their own gratification. 2. What do you feel is significant about this piece of literature and why? (Discuss possible themes and the author’s intentions.) The theme of this piece is dealing with conflict. It highlights how far some parents go to try to better help their children's future welfare. Ann was very content just being 'normal', but her mother wanted her to by much much more. Maybe it was only for self gratification, or maybe it was truly a sincere hope of her mother than Ann would not have to suffer with the same life challenges she had to. 3. What do you think is the value of the literary piece and the form of literature it is written in? (Why has this story...

...Hult is the best Business School to pursue an MIB Degree With the focus of building a career in management, I wish to attain a Master’s degree in International Business which will help me attain my goals. Today’s business scenario is changing and hence I decided to pursue my degree from the best Business School. I choose Hult International Business School as I feel it’s the best Business School. Hult has five campuses around the world to choose from. Firstly, it offers opportunity to rotate to another campus while studying. According to me this is the reason why Hult is right choice to pursue an MIB Degree as it gives us exposure to study in two different parts of world in 1 year. With this you get an opportunity to understand culture of two different countries and work in a different environment with people from various nationalities. Secondly, it gives an opportunity to build lifelong international connections. We get an opportunity to network with people from over 120 nations. To pursue an MIB degree while studying with people from such diverse background gives us an experience to work with multinational teams. I believe no other business school offers such unique opportunity. Also, Hult offers unique business experience in 1 year through the Action Learning Project. As a part of curriculum it offers student to work on real life action project for 3 months. Also, the faculty of Hult International Business School come from diverse background and have worked for various...

...Loyalty versus intelligence Unfortunately but also fortunately, the issue of this essay happens to be in the middle of the company whose CEO am I and it is concerning me from years. In my administration are two different persons, two antagonistic characters. The first person, let’s call him Mr. M, is the current technical production CEO and the second person, let’s say Mr. D, is ex CEO, current technical development department chief and so that Mr. D is subordinated to Mr. M. For a better understanding of the problem, I will make short characterizations of these two persons from a professional point of view. The “ history “ of this problem began three years ago, at the same time with the reorganization of the chart , when due to a huge desire of having a better way of working, there were mixed the two sections : production and technical development in a single one, called “ Technical-Production”. At that moment, Mr. M was the chief production officer ( CEO ) and Mr. D was technical development department chief, but the new technical production chief was called Mr. M and Mr. D was retrograded in the function of lay-out technical department chief, but without a salary decrease. Mr. M is a very dynamic person, with a lot of initiatives and he is very loyal to the company (he is the first who comes to the office and the last who leaves). Moreover, he has a native intelligence, but he is not very educated. Also, he is very impulsive and has little deficiencies in...

The reason I choose that meeting is due to the atmosphere and the people.I usto attend this meeting when I as required to go to meetings. I like that meeting because it is at a park and its not in a closed room. The crowed is very welcoming when you go there. * The meeting opened by leader having someone read the first step prayer. We ended the meeting with the serinity prayer. Today they had 5 newcomers. Which of course are the most important people at the meeting. There were 3 sets of sponsors and sponsee interaction. There were 3 birthday`s. One was a 1 year, one was 5 years, and one amazingingly had 27 years. The recovery was amazing. * What I like the most about the meeting was the warm welcoming feeling like its a family. They made sure to demonstrate that the newcomers the most important person there. They greet you with open arms and you feel like you beling. I have been to meetings that you don't feel welcome. I would go to the meeting again. * The things I disliked in the meeting is that there to long. They don't time the people who are sharing so not everyone got a turn. Another thing I disliked was the treasury secretary of the meeting inly had 2 months instead of the 6 months required. * I would describe the meeting as a family. There very welcoming with open arms. There is no discrimination or judgment on being a newcomers. I will recognize this meeting as to...
