...Case 16: Capital Budgeting Too Hot To Handle! When Patsy opened her full service salon and day spa three years ago, she knew that she would have to make some difficult choices regarding the hiring and firing of qualified professionals such as cosmetologists, estheticians, nail technicians and massage therapists. However, she was confident that her salon management training at Chic University coupled with her industry experience as a stylist would serve her well. And serve her well they certainly did! Within three years of starting her own business, and after a few setbacks, she had managed to assemble a team of 10 salon professionals who were all extremely motivated, people-oriented, and driven individuals who worked hard at retaining their clients and drumming up retail sales. Of course, Patsy had put in place an incentive plan, which the stylists found to be challenging, yet lucrative. Patsy’s salon revenues had grown significantly each year to their current annual level of $500,000. On average, the salon serviced about 40 customers per day with an average ticket of $50. However, over the past year or so a number of new salons and nail spas had opened up in the city. Competition had become much more severe and customers were being swayed by numerous discount coupons. Patsy was well aware that her current sales growth rate of 10% would not continue for very long. At the suggestion of some of her regular clients, she decided to explore the possibility of expanding...

...My biggest pet peeve is with bathrooms. When someone uses up all the hot water and you have to use cold water to take a shower. Peeing on the toilet. People that can’t put the toilet seat down. Leaving your pee and poop in the toilet don’t you know how to flush? The toilet paper not the right way you have to pull it from the top not the bottom and if you have no more toilet paper put a new roll on for the next person. When you use all the hot water you are taking too hot of a shower to to long so if you have it really hot turn it down so that the next person has some hot water to use when he or she is taking a shower. And if you are taking a really long shower put a egg timer and do like 5 min. so that way you still have water that is hot to use. Boys have a problem of lifting the toilet seat and so they some how miss the big hole that is there for them to pee in. if peeing is not fun put frout loops in there so you have something to acme at or just wipe your pee of the seat with a wipe. And girls keep sitting tell you are done taking a pee don’t just get up in the middle of your pee and pee on the seat and have you ever heard of toilet paper that helps prevent pee getting on the seat too you know. There is a silver handle on the toilet seat for you too push down so that way you can say bye bye to you poop or pee. You must love it that much to keep it in the toilet and have everyone else see it...

...Complaints Both the Pareto chart and frequency chart below show that close to 80% of the cumulative complaints can be accredited to waiting too long in line, food being cold and no vegetarian food choices being present. By addressing these three issues, Ted’s Dogs and Burgers will receive higher customer satisfaction which will ultimately lead to higher profits. First and foremost, the current workers need to be as organized as possible in order to tackle the biggest complaint of long wait times. Each worker should have a specific role in the order process and stick to their position. Instead of having three or four workers running around trying to fulfill orders, each worker should be assigned to a specific station. For example, one worker can take orders and handle payment, another worker can assemble hot dogs, another worker can run the burgers while a fourth worker can handle compiling the order and serving drinks. This will allow the workers to become efficient and quickly assemble orders. Each worker can also prepare for customer rushes (half time, before the games begin and shortly after the games are finished) by prepping their work spaces. Hot dog buns can be laid out on plates, napkins can be arranged, cheese can be laid on burger buns and cups can be filled with ice to further speed up the order process. If additional workers were able to be hired and there was money available to spend on additional equipment, there are a couple more options for reducing...

... C. In contrast, we are unable to live without sinning at times - I John 1:8, Romans 3:23 D. When we ask “Why me?” we are implying that we have no responsibility for the problems we sometimes face. 1. This might be true at times, but I’ve seen people say, “Why am I being evicted from my apartment?” Perhaps it is because you are behind on paying your rent. 2. People tend to ignore or make light of their own responsibilities. E. Yet there are times that bad things happen, which are totally out of our control. 1. Still, we shouldn’t say that these things should not happen because we are too good to experience them. F. One of the things that the Bible teaches us is that sin has consequences – whether we are referring to our own sin or the sins of another. 1. Jeremiah lamented that their fathers and sin, yet they still bore the consequences - Lamentations 5:7 2. This is not to say they were being punished for the sins of their fathers. 3. Notice in Jeremiah 31:28-30. God is saying they are suffering for continuing in the sins of their fathers. 4. People so often think they are different - Matthew 23:29-36 III....

...Paul Marty 1/29/2015 EOH353 Professor Sabty-daily Movie “Too Hot Not to Handle” Written Assignment Global Warming has been a nuisance to environmentalists in recent years. It has been affecting Earth’s oceans, habitats, and biodiversity. Over the years, scientists have conducted experiments to understand the causes and effects of global warming and searching for solutions to prevent it from getting worse. They have warned others about the dangers of pollution and human activities and have urged others to do something about it. Films, such as "Too Hot Not to Handle", executive produced by Laurie David, tackles discussions of such subjects as the greenhouse effect, hurricanes, snowpack, hybrid vehicles and alternative power sources - showing how businesses, local governments and citizens are taking positive actions to reduce global warming emissions. Global warming is directly impacting on rising sea levels, the melting of ice caps and significant worldwide climate changes. In short, global warming represents a fundamental threat to all living things on earth. Global average temperature rose significantly during the past century. The prevailing scientific view is that most of the temperature increases since mid-20th century has been caused by increases in atmospheric greenhouse gas concentrations produced by human activity. Most scientists agree that planet’s temperature has risen 0.5 degree Celsius since 1900 and will continue to increase at an increasing rate. As a result...

...How to make Carrot Halwa Ingredients: Fresh Carrots – shredded – 4 cups Milk – 3 cups (whole milk gives richness, but you can use reduced fat too) Sugar – 1 cup Ghee (clarified butter) – 8 tbsp. (approximately 1/2 cup) Cashew nuts – 10 Cardamom pods Step 1. Wash, peel and grate the carrots measured the carrots loosely but heaped Step 2. Place a wide-mouthed, heavy-bottomed vessel in Medium-High heat. [Wide-mouthed vessel so that the carrots get cooked fast and uniform. This way you can save gas, time and energy. I did not have a wide-mouthed vessel. Used my pressure cooker]. Add 4 tbsp. ghee. Step 3. Add the shredded carrots into the ghee and mix well. Step 4. Fry until the carrots turn pale. Compare picture above and below. Do you see the color difference in the carrots? Carrots have turned pale which means they won’t have raw smell. You’ll now feel a kind of sweet smell from the carrots. This process takes around 10 minutes. Add the milk. Step 5. I used 3 cups of milk. i.e. enough milk to submerge the carrots so that they get cooked well in the milk. Allow the milk to boil. Takes 5 minutes. Step 6. Let the carrots get cooked well in the milk. The carrots should drink in all the milk. This will take 20-30 minutes. Stir the content from time to time to prevent scorching. [Duration will sure come down if you use a wide wok. btw, is anybody looking at my scorched vessel? I’ve to get non-stick set <note to the husband>] Step 7. ...

...Megan Dotter Concept of Adaptation Aspects of Psychology SSCI206-1204B-04 Biological Influences IP Week 2 Abstract Teaching a class about the concept of adaptation to a psychology class, experiments could be conducted to help them learn what adaptation is all about. Firsthand knowledge is the best way to teach a large group of people about a concept they may otherwise not fully understand. In this paper you will see and read about some of the findings experienced during this time. Concept of Adaptation This is a new experience for me to teach a class anything so I will begin by giving the information the students should know about adaptation and the examples needed to ensure they understand. After completing that part of the presentation I think it may be beneficial for the students to learn by firsthand experience. There are a few experiments that could be very interesting for them to do on themselves and others. The concept of adaptation is defined as “Diminished sensitivity as a consequence of constant stimulation ("Psych m.d. –," )” or “The tendency of a sensory system to adjust as a result of repeated exposure to a specific type of stimulus such as low levels of light ("Psych m.d. –," ).” An easier way to understand the concept may be to call it sensory adaptation. This explains in the name alone that it will be dealing with the 5 senses we have. Included in these five senses are taste, touch, smell, sight and hearing. I will be touching base on each sense...

Motivations definition is, “The act or an instance of motivating, the state or condition of being motivated, and something that motivates; inducement; incentive (Motivation. (2012). In Dictionary. Retrieved from http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/motivation?s=t). A grand theory explains the full range of a motivated action. The will motivates action and the love of money is the root of all evil identifies a cause that explains a phenomenon. Throughout my paper the drive theory will describe two or more workplace situations and how the drive theory would or would not be applicable if applied to those workplace situations drawn from my personal experience. I will also assess the need to develop and create new theoretical models of motivation in today’s changing work environment. Sigmund Freud and Clark Hull’s Drive Theory Two drive theories learned Sigmund’s drive theory and Clark’s drive theory. The first drive theory, created by Sigmund Freud, believed all behavior and the purpose of behavior serves the satisfaction of bodily needs. Sigmund’s drive theory, summarized by four components; aim, source, object, and impetus. The drives source rooted in a bodily deficit than that bodily deficit became a psychological drive once it reached a level of urgency. Drive had an impetus force that passes the aim of satisfaction. To accomplish this aim of satisfaction, anxiety motivated...

...including dust, stains, bad smells, and clutter on surfaces. Purposes of cleaning agents include health, beauty, absence of offensive odor, avoidance of shame, and avoiding the spreading of dirt and contaminants to oneself and others. Some cleaning agents can kill bacteria and clean at the same time. Scrubbig foam- Scrubs away that are hard to remove such as bugs, tar, and sap. Also used as a more aggressive deoxidizer. Dishpan-a large pan in which dishes, pots, etc., are washed. Dish Cloth-A dishcloth is used in the kitchen to clean dishes and other surfaces. Typically they are made of cotton or other cloth, such as microfiber. Pan with hot water-it is a pan to place hot water on it to prevent the hot water from boiling it to your body. Rolled Newspaper-Newspaper has just the right properties to start a fire. It comes in big sheets. There is most often too much of it around. It bunches up easily. It lights easily and burns without leaving much ash. Plus plain newspaper doesn't produce a lot of toxins when it burns like some other paper products do. Cleaning Rags-Cleaning with rags is the ultimate in fabric recycling. The older the fabric the better it is because it will be soft and very absorbent. I only recycle 100% cotton or linen fabric, again because it's so absorbent. Poly fabric and poly/cotton blends won't wipe spills as well and will never reach that soft fluffy stage cotton and linen have after many washes.It is a piece of fabric that has been recycled to be used for cleaning...

...Abstract Learning and researching about my culture background has given me the purpose of who I am and where I want to go in life. Everything to the Navajo is very sacred and interrelated. Being a Native American of the Navajo tribe, I have identified my clanship; I have a purpose on this beautiful spiritual journey on this corn pollen road. Spiritual Journey In our way of life, the Navajo way of living, we have to know where we come from and where we are going in life. The first time I had ever heard of the Hero Twins story was from a medicine man. Long ago, a woman named changing woman had given birth to twins. During the day, they would play outside of their Hogan, with their mother, changing woman, watching over them to make sure they were safe from the monsters. One day, one of the monsters wanted changing woman for himself because he thought she was childless and went to their home, changing woman quickly hid her twins. When the monster asked “whose footprints are these”? Changing woman lied saying she made them herself, as she made prints with her hand and fingers, saying she is very lonely and wanted to make it look like someone has been coming to visit. As the hero twins got older and wiser, they started asking their mother who their father was. Changing woman kept saying you have no father. Eventually, changing woman finally gave in and told them if you really want to know who your father is, you must travel east to find your father...

...exquisite cooking, Chinese cuisine is one important constituent part of Chinese culture. Chinese dishes are famous for color, aroma, taste, mea3 FOODS OF THE CHINESE The Chinese eat many foods that are unfamiliar to North Americans. Shark fins, seaweed, frogs, snakes, and even dog and cat meat are eaten. However, the Chinese follow the spiritual teaching of balance signified by yin ("cool") and yang ("hot"). This philosophy encourages the Chinese to find a balance in their lives, including in the foods they eat. While preparing meals, the Chinese may strive to balance the color, texture, or types of food they choose to eat. Rice is China's staple food. The Chinese word for rice is "fan" which also means "meal." Rice may be served with any meal, and is eaten several times a day. Scallions, bean sprouts, cabbage, and gingerroot are other traditional foods. Soybean curd, called tofu, is an important source of protein for the Chinese. Although the Chinese generally do not eat a lot of meat, pork and chicken are the most commonly eaten meats. Vegetables play a central role in Chinese cooking, too. There are four main regional types of Chinese cooking. The cooking of Canton province in the south is called Cantonese cooking. It features rice and lightly seasoned stir-fried dishes. Because many Chinese immigrants to America came from this region, it is the type of Chinese cooking that is most widely known in the United...
