...Revenge in Julius Caesar Revenge. Revenge causes one to act blindly without reason. It is based on the principle of an eye for an eye, however this principle is not always a justified one to follow. In Julius Caesar, Antony seeks to avenge the death of Caesar.

...Chapter 1 Introduction Internet is changing the way consumers shop and buys goods and services, and has rapidly evolved into a global phenomenon. Many companies have started using the Internet with the aim of cutting marketing costs, thereby reducing the price of their products and services in order to stay ahead in highly competitive markets. Companies also use the Internet to convey, communicate and disseminate information, to sell the product, to take feedback and also to conduct satisfaction surveys with customers. Customers use the Internet not only to buy the product online, but also to compare prices, product features and after sale service facilities they will receive if they purchase the product from a particular store. Many experts are optimistic about the prospect of online business. In addition to the tremendous potential of the E-commerce market, the Internet provides a unique opportunity for companies to more efficiently reach existing and potential customers. Although most of the revenue of online transactions comes from business-to-business commerce, the practitioners of business-to-consumer commerce should not lose confidence. It has been more than a decade since business-to-consumer E-commerce first evolved. Scholars and practitioners of electronic commerce constantly strive to gain an improved insight into consumer behavior in cyberspace. Along with the development of E-retailing, researchers continue to explain E-consumers’ behavior from...

...Jase Stubbs Chapter 2 discussion question 1/31/2016 1. Desired values are values about a persons self! Values that he or she want to reach as a person! Desired values are values that you want or “desire” as a person. It is a self achieving goals that we want for ourselves. A great example of a desired value to me would be that I value to save money to go on a vacation this year. So my desired outcome would be for me to save fifty dollars every week until my saving goal is achieved. Desirable on the other hand are things we want the world or society to achieve! To me a great example of desirable to me would be “World Peace.” It is a something that is ethical and standard classified by social norms. Everybody wants world peace, but it more or likely will not happen! 2. Hofstedes four original dimensions of culture are, •Power distance, the power distance is the distance of power within an organization etc. a place with a high power distance is like a communist country! The except who is in power and listen to what they say. A organization or place with a low power distance usually try to spread the power out amongst everybody, so there is no one absolute ruler. Everybody then has a say in what happens. • Collectivism vs. individualism, collectivism is like me counting on my best friend to be there for me when I need him and visa versa. Individualism would be like me depending on no one but myself! My fate rest in my hands! •masculinity vs femininity...

Box 37100 Phoenix, AZ 85069-7100 Submission for Population Association of America 1999 Annual Meeting Abstract Social scientists have been concerned with the effect of social origins on educational attainment since the early days of the discipline. One important aspect of social origins that continues to occupy the interest of researchers and the public is the family. The issue of race has also been central to this concern. Recent demographic changes in mortality and marriage behavior have had a profound impact on the increasing proportion of children who will reach age eighteen without both biological parents. This research investigates the effects of trends in family and household structures on the educational attainment for recent black and white cohorts in the United States. We know from previous cross-sectional reports that those who grow up with both biological parents are more likely to attain higher levels of education than those...

...Strategy and Tactics of Distributive Bargaining in Roy J. Lewicki et al., Essentials of Negotiation, 3rd ed., McGraw-Hill/Irwin, pp.59-93. 一、簡述 談判是一種良好的衝突管理過程，透過談判的進行，人與人之間的衝突才有 機會求得最妥適地解決方法。什麼時候會用到談判？想跟老闆要求加薪時；與朋 友決定要看那部電影時；生活中處處可見。在談判的策略應用上，有許多方法， 而這一章節主要在介紹分配式談判(Strategy and Tactics of Distributive Bargaining) 的基本架構、策略與戰略。 1.1 分配式談判 分配式談判(Strategy and Tactics of Distributive Bargaining)，也稱之為競爭型 或輸贏(win-lose)談判，而雙方的目標基本上是直接衝突的，資源有限，而雙方 基本上是在競爭，都想在有限資源中分到最多，故會運用策略來贏得其極大值。 以賽局理論的角度來看，這為零和遊戲(zero-sum game)。因此需謹慎地掌握資 訊，僅透露對我方有利的資訊，並期望盡可能地獲得對方資訊以利於我方處於最 佳情勢。分配式談判的意思為：在不暴露自己可以接受的最低價的前提下，找出 對方願意付出的最高價(Kennedy, 1998)。適用場合如下： 1. 雙方的目的是短期的，無意建立或培養一長期關係。 2. 雙方假設他們的目的是不相容的，討論的議題被視為一塊份量固定的大餅， 一方得，另一方則必失，且瓜分大餅的方法有限。目標在於獲得最大塊的餅， 如果得的多，那對方便得的少，反之亦然，因此談判的目標便是盡可能的獲 取最大份的餅。 3. 最重要的是實體或更能數量化的客觀利益，諸如像價格、利率、件數和合約 上的措辭等要素，在對立談判中，價格是最常見的實體利益；非實體或心理 層面的要素，如尊重、原則或是雙方的福利，雖然也需列入考慮，但是較不 受到重視的要素。 而另外要注意的是，由於雙方想在關鍵資源的有限下(或關鍵資源受到控 制)，亦即在餅是固定的情況下，都希望成為贏家，以取得更大的利益。在這種 情境下，雙方的目標是彼此互斥的，並因此而引發矛盾(或衝突對立)。 1.2 買方的基本策略 買方的基本策略主要在於：尋找對方抗拒值，擴大定案範圍及探究對方對於 成果的價值觀、抗拒值、信心來源及動機；一方面探究對方的機密，另一方面防 止我方機密外洩。可運用的方法如下： 1. 影響對方抗拒值，擴大協商範圍 影響抗拒值的因素。 對方針對特定結果所額外增加的價值。 對方於談判延後必須額外增加付出的代價。 2. 對方於談判失敗會額外增加的成本。 影響分配式談判的過程 對方的抗拒值將視其對談判的延遲或失敗，所預估的額外成本不同而 有所差異，需使對方認為談判延遲或失敗對我方影響不大，以降低對 方的抗拒值。 對方的抗拒值會因談判延遲或失敗額外增加的成本而有所調整。基於 此，需說服對方談判延遲或失敗將對其造成很大的損失，使對方降低 抗拒值。 對方的抗拒值會依其結果所額外增加的價值有所不同，應說服對方目 前的狀態無法獲得他期望的結果，或提供我方在他處更有吸引力的條 件。 對方的抗拒值會因我方對結果所額外增加價值之認定不同而有不同。 越能說服對方接受協商範圍外的特定結果，則我方就越能施壓以迫使 對方向下修訂其抗拒值。 1.3 分配式談判的戰略性策略 1. 主導對方對我方所欲達成結果的看法...

...Introduction This guide has been created to assist my graduate students in thinking through the many aspects of crafting, implementing and defending a thesis or dissertation. It is my attempt to share some of the many ideas that have surfaced over the past few years that definitely make the task of finishing a graduate degree so much easier. (This Guide is a companion to the Guide for Writing a Funding Proposal.) Usually a guide of this nature focuses on the actual implementation of the research. This is not the focus of this guide. Instead of examining such aspects as identifying appropriate sample size, field testing the instrument and selecting appropriate statistical tests, this guide looks at many of the quasi-political aspects of the process. Such topics as how to select a supportive committee, making a compelling presentation of your research outcomes and strategies for actually getting the paper written are discussed. Of course, many of the ideas that are presented can be used successfully by other graduate students studying under the guidance of other advisers and from many different disciplines. However, the use of this guide carries no guarantee - implied or otherwise. When in doubt check with your adviser. Probably the best advice to start with is the idea of not trying to do your research entirely by yourself. Do it in conjunction with your adviser. Seek out his/her input and assistance. Stay in touch with your adviser so that both of you know what's happening...

...Partial Review of the Literature Managers cannot ignore Information Systems because they play a critical role in contemporary organisation. The application of information and communication technology concepts, techniques, policies and implementation strategies to banking services has become a subject of fundamental importance and concerns to all banks and indeed a prerequisite for local and global competitiveness. ICT directly affects how managers decide, how they plan and what products and services are offered in the banking industry. It has continued to change the way banks and their corporate relationships are organized worldwide and the variety of innovative devices available to enhance the speed and quality of service delivery. Harold and Jeff (1995) contend that financial service providers should modify their traditional operating practices to remain viable in the 1990s and beyond, they claim that the most significant shortcoming in the banking industry today is a wide spread failure on the part of senior management in banks to grasp the importance of technology and incorporate it into their strategic plans accordingly, Woherem (2000) claimed that only banks that overhaul the whole of their payment and delivery systems and apply ICT to their operations are likely to survive and prosper in the new millennium. He advices banks to re-examine their service and delivery systems in order to properly position them within the framework of the dictates of the dynamism of information...

...May 4, 2007 Art Lightstone, HTS School of Economics Types of Goods Types of Goods - Related to Income: inferior good: goods for which demand decreases as consumer income rises. Thus, it’s “income elasticity” will be negative. Example: Inter-city bus service and inexpensive foods such as bologna, hamburger, and frozen dinners. normal good: goods for which demand increases as consumer income rises. Thus, it’s “income elasticity” will be positive. Most goods are normal goods, hence the name “normal.” superior good: goods that will tend to make up a larger proportion of consumption as income rises. As such, they are an extreme form of normal good. Thus, a superior good’s “income elasticity” will be both positive and greater than 1. A superior good might be a luxury good that is not purchased at all below a certain level of income, such as a luxury car. luxury good: a more colloquial term that is synonymous with “superior good.” Types of Goods - Related to Price: ordinary good: goods for which quantity demanded increases as the price for the good drops; conversely, quantity demanded decreases as the price for the good increases, ceteris paribus (all other things being equal). Giffen good: a good that will experience an increase in quantity demanded in response to an increase in price. In order to be a true Giffen good, price must be the only thing that changes to prompt a change in quantity demand. Conspicuous consumption (such as found with Veblen goods) is not a factor. The classic...

.... Introduction Good Supply Chain Management practices and properly designed Supply Chain Strategy plays a very crucial role in the success of any organization. Supply Chain Managements concept is formed around two nucleus ideas. According to the first idea, nearly all products that make to an end user signify the collective effort of several organizations. Cumulatively, these organizations are referred to as the supply chain. Based on second idea, though supply chains have been in existence for quite a long time now, the majority of the organizations closely monitored to what was taking place in the supply chain within their four walls. A small number of companies understood and managed the entire chain of activities in their supply chain that finally delivered goods to the ending stage of supply chain that is the customer. This resulted in disorganized and repeatedly ineffective supply chains (R. Handfield, 2011). Supply chain management now can be defined as an active management of supply chain activities to maximize consumer value and attain a sustainable competitive advantage. It characterizes a cognizant endeavor by the supply chain companies to build up and run supply chains in the most effective & efficient ways possible. Like any other organization, supply chain also plays a very important role in the airline industry. Currently in the airline industry, various links in the supply chain are in tension leading to minimized profits, heavy losses and in some cases even...
