Cooper, Interim CEO and CRO John J. Ray, III, Chairman Industry formerly Energy Revenue $101 billion (in 2000) Employees approx. 22,000 in 2000 approx. 4 as of 2008. Website http://www.enron.com/ The Enron scandal was a financial scandal involving Enron Corporation (former NYSE ticker symbol: ENE) and its accounting firm Arthur Andersen, that was revealed in late 2001. After a series of revelations involving irregular accounting procedures conducted throughout the 1990s, Enron was on the verge of bankruptcy by November 2001. A white knight rescue attempt by a similar, smaller energy company, Dynegy, was not viable. Enron filed for bankruptcy on December 2, 2001. As the scandal was revealed, Enron shares dropped from over US$90.00 to less than 50¢. Enron's plunge occurred after revelations that much of its profits and revenue were the result of deals with special...

...The cause of ball ‘e’ firing off is from the contact force between ball ‘d’ and ball ‘e’. The magnet cannon is a 2 piece assembly with 6 different components making it. The first assembly is ball ‘a’, the magnet, ball ‘b’, ball ‘c’, and ball ‘d’, the second assembly is ball ‘e’. The way to use the magnet cannon is by rolling ball ‘a’ into the assembly with ball ‘e’ at the end once ball ‘a’ hits ball ‘e’ fires off. After ball ‘e’ fires off you can see a small recoil and the assembly slides backward. The first piece of evidence for this is the slow-mo video where we saw ball ‘d’ fire off a small amount before getting back to the assembly. In the slow-mo video we saw that when ball ‘e’ got fired off so did ball ‘d’ a small amount before returning to the assembly, then the assembly recoiled. Another piece of evidence is the human cannon experiment we did. In this we saw a chain reaction almost in a wave form, of the push going to each person in the assembly. Then we saw human ball ‘e’ get pushed forward and the rest of the human assembly get a push back. In a second video we looked at for the human cannon we saw human (ball) ‘d’ actually get pushed off the assembly like what I saw with the slow-mo video. My third piece of evidence is the four free body diagrams on page (95) in our book. On the four free body diagrams we had ball ‘e’ and ‘a’ in the first second of the cannon and then the second. In the diagrams the forces acting on ball ‘a’ in the first second is the ruler, gravity...

...Travail de Maturité Le rebond droit d’une balle sur un cadre de tchoukball David Sandoz Lycée Blaise-Cendrars La Chaux-de-Fonds 25 janvier 2008 Physique Mentor : Michel Augsburger RÉSUMÉ Ce travail de physique s’intéresse aux forces et travaux exercés dans le cadre de tchoukball. Il se construit autour de cinq expériences. Les premières se concentrent sur un simple sandow, composant élastique du cadre, puis les suivantes sur le cadre lui même ou la chute libre d’une balle. Les résultats émanent surtout de la dernière expérience, grosse partie du travail, durant laquelle, à l’aide d’un radar longitudinal, on analyse le rebond d’un ballon sur un cadre posé horizontalement. Après de nombreux calculs et réflexions, on démontre en étudiant la force moyenne dans le cadre que le radar est assez imprécis. Si l’on avait pu disposer d’appareils de mesure plus précis, on aurait pu obtenir des résultats plus concrets. Finalement on détermine une équation qui créé un lien entre le travail dans un sandow et celui dans un cadre. ABSTRACT This physic work speaks about forces and works on the tchoukball frame. It’s built around five experiments. The firsts are concentrated on a simple sandow, one of the elastic component of the frame. The nexts are on the frame itself or on the free-fall of a ball. The results come especially from the last experiment, big part of the work where, with the help of a longitudinal radar, we analyse the bounce of a ball on a horizontal laid frame. After...

...The Cause and Effects of Illegally Downloading Music The concept of downloading music has been around since the late 1990s, around the time when we started seeing networking sites appear on the internet. These sites allowed users to post and share music and software files with other users, usually at no cost. Most artists rely on their music careers for sole financial support. With the increase of illegal music downloading, artists lose out on income, it prevents future artists from wanting to pursue a career in the music business and in some cases cause them to miss out on contracts. Illegal music downloading also places the individual at risk for criminal charges. The amount of illegal downloading that occurs today makes it even harder for some musicians to make a living from their music. If artists are not able to make a profitable amount of money in the music industry, the number of people wanting to continue or pursue music will be greatly reduced. With online communities dedicated to sharing music, this trend does not seem as though it will end anytime soon. Once a part of these communities, individuals can and will acquire (whether by paying or for free) the music and turn around and share it with friends and family members. Illegal downloading and sharing is the reason for loss of income in the music industry. Global music piracy causes $12.5 billion of economic losses every year (RIAA - Anti Piracy, 2014). If the amount of money that goes in to the music industry...

...Case Study: Paid to Make Decisions? Tiffany Harden, Tashiba Jones, Jodi Meaux, Wendy F. Superable HCS/514 March 16, 2015 Jeani Thomas Case Study: Paid to Make Decisions? Decision-making is very important and an essential element when managing an organization. As the manager, the decision –making process can be approached in several ways. It can be done using different techniques and tools available. There are also various dilemmas that can be faced with decisions, such as uncertainty or high-risk consequences. Consideration or evaluation of all alternatives should be done due to the dilemma. Manager should make the final decision and make a test of the decision and see how the outcome will be (Balle, 2015). Weaknesses in final statement When Carrie Wilson was hired as a Nursing Manager of the Emergency Department of County Hospital, her style brought adverse reaction from almost everybody including the “good” professional nurses (Liebler, 2012, Chapter 4). The action of Carrie Wilson, as a Nurse Manager, in enforcing long ignored hospital rules has its merits yet should involve staff in the decision-making process. Staff should feel that they are involved in the process. If everyone participates in the decision-making process, there will be less resistance because after all they were the one making the decision. What has been wrong with the approach The staff worked in the emergency department at the County Hospital and they were used to the way things were run...

Similar to Edward's proclamation was the Galway Statute enacted in Ireland in 1527, which banned certain types of ball games, including hockey. ...at no tyme to use ne occupye the horlinge of the litill balle with hockie stickes or staves, nor use no hande ball to play withoute walles, but only greate foote balle[6] By the 19th century, the various forms and divisions of historic games began to differentiate and coalesce into the individual sports defined today. Organizations dedicated to the codification of rules and regulations began to form, and national and international bodies sprung up to manage domestic and international competition.

...Reading: Framing a theory of social entrepreneurship: Building on two schools of practice and thought - J. Gregory Dess and Beth Balle Anderson The paper argues that social entrepreneurship will be most effective and generate the greatest interest of academics when it combines elements of the two main existing schools of thought: the social enterprise and the social innovation school of thought. At the intersection of them, to which the authors refer to as “enterprising social innovations”, social entrepreneurship is defined as an “innovative, social and economic value creating activity” that offers the opportunity for large-scale social impact that is sustainable and not constrained by a legal form. Thus, the social sector should use the business world for inspiration and apply innovative market-oriented models to raise capital and address social issues. Such an approach would revolutionize the process of creating social value – blending social/philanthropic and economic components to shift resources into areas of higher impact for society. In my opinion, the claim that social entrepreneurship should focus on that intersection is the logical step forward in enhancing a new field of academic inquiry. Taken alone, each of the school maintains important aspects of tackling social issues: using market-oriented strategies to create social value is the best method to avoid the dependence on private donor capital which comes from the often illiquid social sector, offering the possibility...

...Career Planning & Development - Identifying Personal Goals Through Self-Assessment Tools Survey of Human Resource Management Unit 5 IP5 LaRaysha Mobley AIU Online Professor K. Bennett The selection and hiring process should be precise, uniform, and adhere to laws and regulations.
