...Some people may state that the artist formally known as Prince Rogers Nelson only produced overly provocative music. And that there is nothing to learn from the music he creates. Why should his music matter in the first place? What significance can it hold? However, Prince’s album Purple Rain has continued to change the life of individuals since its release on June 25th of 1984. Through credible sources such as: Rolling Stone and Larry King Live (on December 10th of 1999) I will be able to analyze Prince’s interpretations of his own music ,and explain how three of his songs from the Purple Rain album teach us to live through life more wisely. The three songs will consist of “Baby I’m A Star”, “Let’s Go Crazy”, and “The Beautiful Ones” because...

...happy to be here to tell you about the first part of our group’s presentation: Study life of a student at university. My talk will be in three parts. First, I’d like to give you an overview of the difference between university and high school. Second, I’ll focus on the new study form. Finally, I’ll talk about new exam form.So, let’s start with the difference between university and high school. As you know, a classroom in high school is small and only enough for about 50 students. But at university, the classroom is larger, crowded, and not fixed. It can have more than 100 people and well-equipped. Moreover, the lecturers at university have the new teaching styles that are not similar to these of teacher in high school. For example, teacher often check our homework, remind us of our incomplete task, while lecturers may not do that. At university, we are supposed to do that self- consciously. Lecturers provide us helpfully with knowledge and the direction. It is the fact that, many freshmen aren’t used to this teaching styles so at first, the result of study is not good. But then, they find it more enjoyable. Furthermore, the regulation at university isn’t as compulsory as in high school. We have more freedom and responsibilities. It is up to us to go to class, manage our work. The benefit is that we can own our timetable, our study and our life. On the other hand, some students are lazy or tempted to other attraction such as: internet, game…Ok, let’s move on to the new study form...

...Ever wonder what it would be like to live in the white house or be able to visit and learn about the cool modern but yet sophisticated house? Well in this paper you will find out about the histoty of the house, the location of the house, the tunnel system under the house, the layout of the house, the staff who serve in the house, the family of Donald J Trump, and the tourism and the relations of the house. So let's get started shall we? So the history of the white house goes way back starting in the year 1792 on October 13. The year 1792 was about different acts that has happened like the postal act. Many things happened back then but let's focus on the white house first. Like I said it was built in the year of 1792 and lucky president John Adams was the first president to live in the white house. The white house provides no damage photo’s but in the year 1814 british troops entered the white house and burnt it down. With the white house it was built by slaves. On many different websites it clarifies that the house was built indeed by slaves. The white house had a restoration to almost the whole thing when it was burned down by the british troops....

...Introduction: At first let’s talk about the general relationship between Bahrain and USA, will USA effects almost every aspect in our lifetime from our culture, education, society and more and this essay will focus on media, technology and religion. Body: Paragraph 1: At the beginning we will talk about the media which is a very important aspect in our life because media with its different types can changes the way we think and our lifestyles, For example the internet which is a very vital thing nowadays, because no one could live without it. The internet can be used In a good way like searching for information and so on. Furthermore let’s talk about another type of media which is movies, especially Hollywood movies which we can get effected by either in a good and a bad way because some movies show a lot of violence and are good like comedy or drama. I remember this time when my mother told me that when she was young she used to go to the movies all the time with her sisters to watch Bahraini movies for only 100 fils. Media can affect our lifestyles in a good and in a bad at the same time we just have to chose the right side of it.

...cell. Everything we talk about, membranes are going to be involved. I’m trying to be gentle with this vocabulary, but there’s no way we can get around it. When I refer to things, when biologists refer to things, it’s like a classification system. You guys know the whole story of why we call things by their scientific name. Well, it’s the same thing with cell parts. There’s a vocabulary that goes with the cell, and you’re just going to have to tough it out and learn it. But you know what? It makes sense. Learn to dissect those words. Now, the plasma membrane in an animal cell, or in a plant cell, separates the cell from its exterior, but the membranes in the cell also separate the parts of the membrane in closed organelles from the environment of the cell. Well, when we talk about some of the functions of membrane, we’re going to refer to the cytosol and the cytoplasm, and let’s just get those words out of the way. The cytoplasm is what we refer to as all of the material inside of the cell between the plasma membrane and the nucleus. So, for example, you will find many organelles in the cytoplasm, and the cytoplasm has a liquid in it called the cytosol – “cyto” solution. “Cyto” means cell. So we have the cytoplasm, kind of plasma; cytosol is the solution in the cytoplasm. Cell membranes, plasma membranes, and membranes in general can have other functions too. Now, here’s an interesting one. These are what are called microvilli – and we’re going to talk a lot about those later on –...

...Lynn Mortali Assignment #4 Due Date: 04/09/2013 Challenges of Gathering Worldwide Data What I found most interesting about this chapter is the detail that international marketing requires. The objective of any marketer is to gather information that will be useful in trying to determine the best ways and/or areas to sell a product. This goal is the same whether you are trying to sell in your home country or in a foreign country. The following are five steps that are important to any international marketing plan: (pg227) 1) Economic and demographic – General data on the growth in the economy, inflation, business cycle trends and the like. 2) Cultural, sociological and political climate – A general noneconomic review of conditions affecting the divisions business. 3) Overview of market conditions – A detailed analysis of market conditions. 4) Summary of the technological environment – A summary of the state-of-the-art technology as it relates to the divisions business. 5) Competitive situations – A review of competitors sales revenues, methods of market segmentation, products and apparent strategies on an international scope. It is important to remember the culture you are trying to penetrate. Do women talk to strange men? Are they allowed to talk to strange men? Will a man provide information to a woman if the woman is performing the survey? It is important to have someone from the local culture work with you to obtain the data you...

...Barrack Obama. Well I am here to tell you about HOW both speeches compare. What were the differences? What were the similarities? Read on and you will find out. How was Barrack Obama’s speech like? Barrack Obama’s speech was very long; maybe because it was his victory speech, after all he did win the place as president. What I also saw was that Obama did not talk only about him, he talked about us. He didn’t boast in Romney’s face, he said that he hopes that they could work together. What was the surroundings like? Well I know for sure that it was huge, the headquarters in Chicago was humongous. There were also a lot of people in the headquarters listening to Obama’s speech. How was Romney’s speech like? Well Romney’s speech was not too long. The speech was technically all about how he would make a better president if he won; I think that is why it is called a concession speech, because concession means to accept that something is true, or acknowledging defeat, and it is a speech. In all his speech he only talked about how he would make a great president, and how his wife would make a great first lady. I also realized that there were barely any people. How do both speeches compare? Well let’s tell the differences first. First, Obama’s headquarters in Chicago held more people than Romney’s did. Second, Romney’s speech as shorter than Obama’s. Third, Obama did not only talk about himself, he talked about us. Now let’s talk about the similarities. First, they both were speeches...

...Now let’s talk about ability. Employees need to have certain abilities that will make them a valuable addition to an organization. But when talking about ability, we know that we weren’t all created equal in our abilities. No matter how talented you are, it’s unlikely for you to act as well as Scarlett Johansson (the black widow in the Avengers), play basketball as well as LeBron James (the famous NBA basketball player), or write as well as the author of Harry Potter, J.K. Rowling, etc. Hence, from management’s standpoint, it’s very important to use the knowledge that people differ to increase the likelihood an employee can or will perform his or her job well. Organizations need to identify key abilities of employees that will lead to success, and managers need to understand what abilities will lead to a good job fit with certain employees. So, what does Ability mean? Ability is an individual's capacity to master numerous tasks in a job. Intellectual and physical abilities are two key types of traits that organizations look for employees to have depending on the job requirements. (p5) First of all, let’s talk about Intellectual Ability. Companies view intellectual ability as one of the most valuable attributes in employees. This ability deals with mental capabilities such as thinking, reasoning, problem solving, etc. which are all important elements of worker skill in companies. Certain jobs require more intellectual ability than other types of jobs. For example, a factory...

...have similarities with Equality, protagonist of Anthem. So let’s talk first about the first part. Prometheus stole fire from Zeus and gave it to humans. Humans can now make war, their own food, and etc. This made Zeus mad that he punished him by having him chained to a rock. Now, let’s talk about Equality’s part. On page 35, you’ll see that Equality stole candles from the Home of the Street Sweepers. Not only that, he also stole many things like manuscripts, flints, knives, papers, and etc.Why did Equality stole them? It’s because he uses it for his creations, experiments, and he rebels to his society. All the transgressions that Equality had committed were against the rules. Now, let’s take a look at their differences. First Prometheus stole fire,and Equality stole candles. Do you see the difference? We all know that fire is for candles so it has some connections in it.You know fire and candle thing. Was Equality chained too? No, he was put in a ‘’prison cell’’, but the reason was different. As you read in this essay, you’ll see the reason why Prometheus stole the fire from Zeus....
