...tool to encourage the youth to make something out of themselves. I am not saying that other sports cannot impact someone’s life, but basketball has always highlighted most kids’ childhoods. There were always different types of ballers back in the day though. One of the fundamental divisions of sports is into team and individual activities. Basketball can be broken down into many different groups. That depends on a few factors such as, geography, culture, and skill. In the United States we have the highest level of basketball, the NBA. Now even in the pros there are a few levels that can be broken down. There are the greatest players, Jordan or LeBron, and then you have players that do not even make it a full year. There is the kind of ball player that practices every single day trying to perfect his craft, and maybe make it to the pros. He is the guy that does not have the newest sneakers or the most expensive gear. That stuff does not matter to him. He will never be able to attend one pro ball game, but will never miss a game on his local television channels. He will imitate every move, like the one Iverson crossed Jordan with, and he will dedicate his life to school because he knows that basketball is merely a dream. There is the kind of baller that just does one thing, shoot the ball. He does not care about running up and down the court, dunking, or even passing. This guy is what I call a three point camper. He will be the first person down the court to wait at the...

...like its employees to feel valued and to care about the business more. By giving the employees a greater responsibility within the business they will have a larger interest in the business. Uber also emphasizes the idea, over the person. In other words, the company tries to “avoid politics” and “encourage toe-stepping” by encouraging employees at all levels to voice new ideas, and then supporting them if they seem doable, Atwood said. This culture has been implemented since the creation of the company and according to Uber is the key to such rapid growth. To begin with Uber was a taxi service of luxury cars which as Kalanick says“In the beginning, it was a lifestyle company. You push a button and a black car comes up. Who's the baller? It was a baller move to get a black car to arrive in 8 minutes." But what began in 2009 as a luxury car service in San Francisco is now valued at $3.76 billion and operates worldwide. Its transformation from luxury...

...The truth is the athletes are the only ones effected by these negative comments about athletes, therefore we should help them create a stronger self-identity. Programs such as Scholar Baller are great ways to teach student athletes that their academic identity is just as important as their athletic one. Peer mentors can help athletes see themselves more in the academic field as well as branching their connection outside of athletics. Many athletes are isolated in the way that they are surrounded by only other athletes or coaches, which makes it harder for them to develop an academic identity. Peer mentors can help introduce athletes to the other side of the college experience and help them set goals for the future. Having someone outside of their athletic sphere is the first step to reaffirming their identity as being more than just an athlete. For some athletes a peer mentor and some self-affirmation exercises will not be entirely beneficial. It is important for colleges to branch out and find more ways to help motivate athletes to take a personal interest in academics. Take for example when Scholar Baller partnered with Jordan and the program began rewarding “high-achieving players with swag (gear) that was cobranded with both organizations” (Harrison and Rasmussen, p. 87). The Scholar Baller program found a new way to motivate students by rewarding their hard work and dedication in the academic world. This partnership shows athletes that academics are important and that big...

...EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The IMC campaign title is “HONESTHESIA: Be the Cure” which came from the medicine drug “ANESTHESIA”. It aims to “inject” or to put into the mind and in the heart of the students the value and importance of honesty during elections in order to reduce “pain” or to reduce the dishonesties and lies to happen during election. Elections have been practiced a long time ago; it’s one way for people to exercise their suffrage to vote to appoint their desired leaders. Philippines as a democratic country used election to appoint officials like senators and president. But with every election, news about vote buying, malicious tampering of votes, fraud and other dishonest acts increases. These kinds of acts are a start of an impending problem called corruption. To prevent corruption to take place, we need to take action first on our elections and make it clean and honest. Our team has come up to a campaign called “HONESTHESIA: Be the Cure” which aims to increase honest individuals and young voters to stop dishonest acts during school and nationwide elections. Our goal is to: 1. To provide awareness about honesty to students within 6 months 2. To teach the true value and importance of honesty during elections within 6 months 3. To increase by 10% the students who will value and practice honesty during elections every year after the campaign is implemented 4. To decrease dishonesty and corruption by 10% every year after the campaign is implemented The major...

It helps solve conflict and problems it also helps to prevent issues from developing in the future. In other words sociology is the study of human beings and how they react to each other and their environment. Sports are a big part of human culture in all parts of the world. It transcends all races, ages, and social constructs. Sociology of Sports is the study of the relationships between sports and society. It is an important sub-field of sociology that examines the many interpersonal and group phenomena that arises in relationship to sports. It covers all area in which sports affect and is affected by. The sociology of sports examines how culture and values influence sports as well as how sports influence culture and values. One could say that it has no boundaries. Sociology of sports also examines the relationships between sports and the media, politics, economic, religion, race and gender, as well as social inequality and social mobility ( Crossman, 2013). The sport I chose to research is basketball. Basketball is a game that continually amazes. Its fast pace and high flying aerial display has made basketball one of the most popular games in America. Basketball is a court game played by two teams of 5 players each. The object of this court game is to put a ball through a hoop or basket, and score more points than the other...

...E. Jackson Mr. James O'donoghue Sept 27, 2013 English Comp 101-Sec 103 Water Ad Analyzination Everyday many thoughts are placed in Ads to promote new ideas and new products to obtain different audiences’ attention . Ads have been around for many of years . The importance of advertisement is to promote the sales and products to seem more valuable than what they really are. Ads are used to give messages to different audience to make sells . By convincing the audience , the ad is trying to show why they are the best choice . By enhancing image , creating new logos and new catch phrases . Sidehustlenation.com says ,“SmartWater is vapor distilled water. From what I can understand, pretty much all water is vapor distilled, meaning it originally came from clouds.According to their website, most SmartWater is procured from municipal water systems. Read, “tap water.”Then the Smart Water goes through Glaceau’s proprietary filtration process, that removes just about everything from the water except two H’s and an O. SmartWater then adds back in the electrolytes calcium chloride, magnesium chloride, and potassium bicarbonate for taste. I think the for taste part is important because the nutrition label still reads 0 mg of sodium, and the amounts of electrolytes added have essentially zero gatorade-effect. In fact, the amount of electrolytes found in SmartWater is less than in other brands of non-electrolyte-added” bottled waters. The reason why it is called Smartwater...

...FLOPS Document FLOPS ASSIGNMET The whole world is a potential lucrative market place in which international companies can succed if they do it right. Some of them are very fortunate when it comes to expanding in countries abroud, others less. Most of the times the failure is caused by not choosing the right marketing strategy.

That's really who he is.......he is the most real, consistent, true person I have ever met in my life. He was so genuine, it blows your mind......And he led by example. He had a vision.
