...It is the time of the year where WWE fans are looking back on the year that was while also looking ahead to the new year with hope that 2015 will be a better year than 2014 was. One of the things that is on a lot of people’s minds is whether or not The Undertaker will wrestle at WrestleMania 31. The latest bit of news about The Undertaker is that WWE wants him to work because he’s making around $1 million per year and they want to get a return on their investment, so to speak. If he does wrestle at WrestleMania 31 then his likely opponent is Bray Wyatt. At this point, nobody really knows if he’ll compete and we probably won’t find out for sure for another month or two. Next year’s WrestleMania could be the time where he decides not to come back. Maybe he can get inducted into the Hall of Fame in 2015 or even better in 2016 in his home state of Texas since it’s going to be in Dallas. Whatever he decides, fans should respect him because of all that he’s done in his amazing career. Nobody deserves our respect more than him. What if he doesn’t wrestle, though? He’s at a point in his life where he really doesn’t need to wrestle anymore. He has a wife (Michelle McCool) who he has a daughter with, he has other children from previous marriage and he’s done enough to entertain us. There really is nothing left for him to do. Should he wrestle or should he retire for good? It’s a debate fans will have for several months and then in the years that follow. I’ve been at three of the past...

...WWE Analysis World Wrestling Entertainment, best known as the WWE, is an entertainment company dedicated to the production and marketing of live shows and original products. WWE has two different professional wrestling brands: Raw and Smackdown. Between them they have no great difference; the format is the same, the stories are just as complex to each character, and characters are exchanging between each of the marks. This has no other purpose to give a bit of dynamism to the show, and a bit of rivalry between the Raw and the Smackdown. WWE creates various characters for its program with very complex features, to then introduce them to the world of the fight with combinations of social satire, action, adventure, drama, mystery, athletics and much humor. With regard to the history of the characters, WWE has been characterized by creating a very long history of each of the characters, line since they begin to make popular until they reach retirement, making countless fights, rivalries between teammates, Championships, injuries, among other things that certainly make people continue struggles, and see them continuously, the story of the characters is linear. Program Raw on Monday was recorded for the first time in the city of Mexico, which created much commotion that in Mexico there are many followers of this programme and, of course Rey Misterio and recently Alberto del Rio, the two Mexican fighters of the brand. The show was like any other of the engravings in the U.S....

...Fundamentals of Effective Communication in the Workplace Fundamentals of Effective Communication in the Workplace 1 Fundamentals of Effective Communication in the Workplace Bret Hart Intro to Business February 5th, 2014 Fundamentals of Effective Communication in the Workplace 2 Getting elected to take over another project at work seemed less than exciting when I noticed that the program was not running to the best of its ability. In 2010, I was asked to take over the Demo program, meaning to monitor the inventory that was being issued out to Reps (who than used the inventory to close big deals and/or to gain business). Days into my new duty I noticed that the amount of merchandise being issued out was not being returned and/or lost. Reps were not being held accountable for the devices and there was no way to track how much inventory was being issued to each Rep. I knew this was becoming a problem and needed to be addressed immediately, so I emailed my supervisor and asked to have a one-on-one to discuss possible resolutions. During our meeting, I presented him with a Past Due Report, which would keep track of who checked out what inventory, their reporting manager, their associate director and the dollar amount of all equipment that was out in the field. I explained how the report would create responsibility, structure and the opportunity to be more successful for all who was actively involved with this program. Accountability. Since the report was approved and has now become...

...Precision Worldwide Inc. manufactures steel rings, which are used in certain machines. French firm Henri Poulenc competitor of Precision Worldwide Inc is introducing a plastic ring, which is a substitute for the steel retaining rings. Hans Thorborg, general manager of Precision Worldwide Inc. is worried because the plastic rings not only have a longer life than the steel rings but are also manufactured at a lower price. PWI has a large quantity of steel rings and substantial inventory of special steel. In a meeting, the general manager, the sales manager, the accountant and the development engineer discussed the possible problems and alternatives for this problem. For PWI, manufacturing plastic rings was defiantly the best solution for the problem but they still wondered what they would do with the inventory they had. According to the sales manager, customers new about the new plastic rings and were asking if PWI was already selling them. The development engineer calculated that the plastic rings could be by mid-September. The sales manager thought that since the plastic rings could be produced at a really low cost, the inventory problem was irrelevant. He suggested that if the steel rings couldn’t be sold they should just throw them away. Another problem was that Henri Poulenc was selling the plastic rings at the same price that PWI was selling the steel rings. Not manufacturing the plastic rings would be like ignore a considerable profit margin. In the meeting they concluded...

...Identify a company (or school) that has been a target of a network or system intrusion? What information was targeted? Was the attack successful? If so, what changes has the company (or school) made to ensure that this vulnerability has been controlled? As a response to the question, I would like to present a case of cyber espionage that happened in 2004 with the US Military and Defense. The series of attacks were designated as the Titan Rain by the FBI and known as one of the largest attacks in the history of Cyber espionage. Some claims that the attack was ongoing for three years while other believes they lasts for several days.(http://www.dvice.com/archives/2010/09/7_of_the_most_d.php) The main purpose of the attack was to steal confidential and sensitive information and patterns of the US army. Upon my research I have found out that there are many have assumptions about who can be the potential attacker and most of them claims that it could be either China (government supported cells) or Chinese mafia. In one particular article the author James A. Lewis contradicts the these assumptions and states that the attack was taken in action by the bored teenagers of California just for excitement as US officials performed further research. James points out that the intelligence services of China are not so lousy and clumsy would leave footprints after the operation. He also adds that China having one of the most sophisticated opponent and can launch an attack from other contraries...

...Paradise Lost By John Milton The Book note Table of Contents Introduction Cast of Characters Plot Summary An Analysis of Major Characters Satan Adam Eve Chapter Summary and Analysis Book 1 Book 2 Book 3 Book 4 Book 5 and 6 Book 7 Book 8 and 9 Book 10 Book 11 and 12 Symbols and Themes Quotes The Quiz Introduction John Milton was born in London on December 9, 1608. He was the son of a successful Protestant merchant, and was provided with an excellent education that included the opportunity to travel widely throughout Europe. He was fluent in a number of classical as well as modern languages, including Greek, Latin, Hebrew, Aramaic, Spanish, Italian, French and Dutch. In 1625, he began his attendance at Cambridge University with the intention of becoming a clergyman in the Church of England, but was disillusioned by what he considered the arrogance and ignorance of his fellow students. He decided that his true calling was to serve God and his country as an author and poet. Inspired by Roman poets of antiquity, and particularly Virgil, Milton aspired to create a great epic poem in the English language. He considered two other distinctly British topics for his epic—the story of King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table, and the military exploits of the general Oliver Cromwell—before settling on the Biblical story of Adam and Eve and their fall from God’s grace through disobedience. Milton was politically active throughout his life, and was outspoken...

...Temptation All of us experience temptations. So did the Savior, but He “gave no heed unto them” (D&C 20:22). Similarly, we do not have to yield simply because a temptation surfaces. We may want to, but we don’t have to. 3. Satan, who is called the tempter (Mt. 4:3; 1 Thess. 3:5), is out to get us. He doesn’t care how spiritual we are, or how secure we are in our Christian homes; he is going to tempt us to sin hoping to lead us away from God and our families. FIRST, TO RESIST TEMPTATION, WE MUST UNDERSTAND WHAT TEMPTATION IS. Temptation is an enticement or an allurement to sin against the will of God. 2. James explains temptation this way: (Jam. 1:13-15) “When tempted, no one should say, “God is tempting me.” For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does He tempt anyone; but each one is tempted when, by his own evil desire, he is dragged away and enticed. Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death.” 3. These verses teach several things about temptation. a. First, God does not tempt us to sin, in fact, (1 Cor. 10:13) explains that God provides us with a way out of temptation. God allows us to be tempted in order to refine our faith and to help us grow in our dependence upon Him. b. Second, temptation in of itself is not sin. Jesus was tempted, however, He was without sin. Temptation only becomes sin when we give into the temptation. 4. Temptation is a process...

...English essay Soon I was in deep sleep. I was woken up by a very strange light. The light was golden and was bright. There was no other light in the room except that one and it looked like it came from one person. Well, you can’t call it a person I’d say. It was about the normal average height of an adult. It had pointed ears and slightly upturned eyes. It had a small wooden stick, probably a wand in her hand and a brownish bag in the other. It was wearing a colourful frock and her hair was tied in a bun. She was also wearing a necklace. It clearly was a female, whatever it was. She looked kind of an elf, the ones you read in Artemis Fowl but soon after I realized that she was a fairy. She was shocked to see me as I was to see her. Then I slowly gained the courage to ask her who I she was and what was she doing in my room. She was a faltering to answer. I told her there was nothing to be scared of and that she could tell me everything freely, I wouldn’t tell it to anyone. She said that she would tell the truth but on the condition that I wouldn’t tell it to anyone. I agreed. She said that she was sent from heaven and she was the new fairy of distributing dreams. So as she was new she was also quite inexperienced. As she was like a new “species” that I had seen probably discovered I was curious. I asked her more. She said that she was Ophelia and she was quite popular in heaven as she was married to the Archangel Gabriel. She was distributing dreams in our colony and my house...

...Thoughts As they get closer to deliberating on this case the victim’s parents have requested to have a special prosecutor for this case. I read this article and I see a hurting family and I understand why they feel this way. At the same time I see that there son was not the model citizen and he was already in trouble with the law. This does not justify being shot and killed but that cannot be changed. The events of that fateful day are already history. I don’t feel that changing the prosecutor will have a great change in the outcome of this case. Conclusion Many people have a strong opinion of what took place the night of the shooting. It has been said that there was an altercation between Michael Brown and officer Darren Wilson. Other witnesses state that Michael Brown had his hands up in surrender while he was shot multiple times in the back. What no one knows is if officer Darren Wilson feared for his life and if he had probable cause. Once this case goes to court the truth will come out. I just feel that because a white man shot and killed a black man it is made a racial event. I am Hispanic and if I felt in fear of losing my life I would not hesitate to shot and kill that person causes that fear. It becomes a racial issue and people begin to riot and act crazy. It all goes back to the lack of education and the poor up brining of people. These are my thoughts...

...Satan Satan is an evil being who is often represented as an ugly, red demon with a tail and horns. In reality, although he is a demon, he is beautiful. He was originally from heaven and his activity and demonic army are constantly on the verge of causing chaos. Satan was originally created as an angel with a magnificent appearance. At one point in time, he was one of God’s favorites. Ezekiel 28:12-15 talks about Satan being perfect until God found him immoral. Though Ezekiel is addressing these words to the King of Tyre, they are ultimately directed towards Satan. He is the creator of pride and cruelty. Many Christians do not accept this interpretation of Satan to be true. They consider this description to be a highly symbolic representation of the Tyre king, though some people think that this passionate expression includes a well-known myth about an ancient being who lived in the Garden of God until he was banished for his pride and rebellion (DeHaan 11). It is unlikely that the inspired prophet would include a myth into his message of judgement. It is not uncommon to see double references in the Bible, such as Ezekiel calling attention to Satan, the motivator of sin to the earthly monarch. Ezekiel announced that originally, Satan was wise and beautiful. He depicts Satan in Eden, describing him being lavished in jewels. The King James Version of the Bible tells of the tambourines and flutes that were prepared for him on the day of his creation (DeHaan 12). Considering this...

...Paradise Lost “Forsake me not thus, Adam, witness Heav’n What love sincere, and reverence in my heart I bear thee, and unweeting have offended, Unhappily deceived; they suppliant I beg, and clasp they knees; bereave me not, Whereon I live, thy; gentle looks, they aid, Thy counsel in this uttermost distress, My only strength and stay; forlorn of thee, Whither shall I betake me, where subsist? While yet we live, scarce one short hour perhaps, Between us two let there be peace, both joining, As joined in injuries, one enmity Against a foe by doom express assigned us, That cruel serpent: on me exercise not Thy hatred for this misery befall’n, On me already lost, me than thyself More miserable; both have sinned, but though Against God only, I against God and thee, And to the place of judgment will return, There with my cries importune Heaven, that all The sentence from they head removed may light On me, sole cause to thee of all this woe, Me me only just object of his ire.” At the end of “Paradise Lost” by John Milton, Eve makes a speech to an irate Adam imploring him not to leave her and claiming that she accepts full responsibility for the fall of them both. As a rhetorical performance, Eve creates the effect she desires because she is able to bring Adam to submissiveness and commiseration. This persuasiveness that she uses is a talent that she learned from Satan while he was tempting her to eat the fruit. Satan is a very persuasive character. He...
