...German History Research Paper by Ryan Parker 3334798 Dr. Lisa Todd HIST 3095 Mar. 27th 2015 Throughout the 20th century the nation of German went through a number of cataclysmic, and paradigm shifting changes. One of the longest lasting changes to Germany was the division of Germany into two separate nations, the Federal Republic of Germany (West Germany), and the German Democratic Republic (East Germany). These two nations were the results of a fundamental difference in political ideals of two of the great nation at the time, the United States of American, and the Soviet Union. Throughout the life spans of these two nations one of the largest concern were the youth; as the future population of both nations, it would be on the shoulders of the youth that the countries ideal would be preserved or forgotten. During this time the influence of Western culture was permeating throughout most of the world, and both Germanies were not excluded. Throughout the examination of the youth, this paper will attempt to expose the way in which western culture, specifically the music from the west, affected the youth of both nations. One of the earliest accounts of western music impacting German youth comes from the musician Udo Lindenberg, who recounts the story of how Elvis changed his life in 1957. In his story he recounts how the music was entirely different from all the music he had herd before, “I wasn’t sure what...

...The Chronicles of Generation X: The History, Influential Events, and My Personal Experience Kareem E. Murray COM/172 3/11/2015 Dr. Debra Geiger If you ask anybody about Generation X, nine times out ten people will think you were talking about an X-Men or Wolverine cartoon. In comparison to the X-Men, we have been stereotyped as being frustrated, cynical, hopeless and unmotivated slacker. This subject is more realistic than those lies and titanium claws society want to put on my generation. In a class of our own, you will get a better understanding of Generation X through its history, the influential events and my personal experiences have sharpened such a diverse generation that will always stay on top. Generation X or Gen Xers consist of 50 million members born between 1965 and 1977, from the past generation of the Baby Boomers. In a time where the single most anti-child phase in American history began. In the early 1960's the birth control pill became widely available, and in 1973, abortion was legalized (Coupland 1991). These are two factors that are said to have contributed to the generation small numbers. Compared to Baby Boomer numbers at 76 million and Millennial at 80 million according to Jeff Gordinier in his book, How Generation X Got the Shaft, But Can Still Keep Everything from Sucking (Gordinier 2009). Robert Capa, a photographer for Mangum magazine, was the first person to use the phrase "Generation X". Using it to describe the people who grew up after...

...Chinese elements with Western fashion. As he observed them, however, Chua saw tension and miscommunication based on cultural differences. "Even though, when you asked them, they didn't think it was a problem, I wondered if it could have an indirect impact on people observing these tensions," he says. Chua compares it to the kind of "hostile work environment" that occurs in cases of sexual harassment or racial discrimination—in which coworkers' morale or performance suffers even when they are not the direct targets of abuse. He coined a term for the phenomenon, "ambient cultural disharmony," which he discusses in depth in The Costs of Ambient Cultural Disharmony: Indirect Intercultural Conflicts in Social Environment Undermine Creativity, a paper published this month in the Academy of Management Journal. Multicultural teams may need managerial nurturing to overcome frictions.

...5. Brief Cultural Analysis Having selected Germany as the country representing the highest potential for WGI, we then conduct a Cultural Analysis of the country to research important cultural aspects that could influence our Marketing, Operational, Financial and HR/Organizational plans The methodology we employed was to assess the following cultural characteristics: Material Culture Technology. Germany's achievements in science and technology have been significant. Germany has been the home of some of the most prominent researchers in various scientific disciplines, notably physics, mathematics, chemistry and engineering. For most of the 20th century, Germany had more Nobel Prizes in the sciences (physics, chemistry, physiology or medicine) than any other nation. Scientific research in the country is supported by industry, by the network of German universities and by scientific state institutions such as the Max Planck Society and the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft. The raw output of scientific research from Germany consistently ranks among the world's best. Germany’s greatest strength is its automobile industry. German carmakers focus on computer-based assistance systems that could make driving safer and more comfortable. | Economics. Since the late nineteenth century, the German economy has been shaped by industrial production, international trade, and the rise of consumer culture. Consequently, the number of people involved in agricultural production has steadily...

...Jane Yolen Jane Yolen born February 11, 1939 in New York City. Born as the first child to her parents Isabel Berlin Yolen and Will Hyatt Yolen. Her brother Steve Hyatt Yolen was born three and a half years later. Jane at an early age discovered her love for writing and arts. In high school she was the News Editor of the school paper. After high school she went to Smith College where she won all the poetry-writing awards. To date Jane has written over three hundred books. Take a look at the works of Jane Yolen. | Non-fiction about women pirates, including Anne Bonney and Mary Read (see Ballad of the Pirate Queens), this was my very first book. But it wasn’t the first time I’d written about women pirates. In fact I’d included two of them (Bonney and Read) in a little book I wrote in 7th grade. The greatest pirate in the world was a woman, Madame Ching, who lived at the beginning of the nineteenth century and commanded 2,000 boats and 70,000 men. | An original fairy tale set in Thailand and based on a line in my kite research, which said that the king had kite mandarins who flew his kite at night to keep his soul above the terrors of the night. The story, written during my Quaker phase, is about speaking truth to power no matter what the cost. ("Speaking truth to power" is a Quaker phrase.) Young’s artwork here is dark and strong, more allegorical than straightforward illustration. The book was a Junior Literary Guild selection. An original fairy tale, this story...

...Final Paper Albert Einstein and Isaac Newton were both very influential figures concerning science. They both discovered ground breaking things in the physics world. Albert Einstein was a German-born theoretical physicist who developed the general theory of relativity. This is one of the biggest parts of physics alongside with quantum mechanics. Sir Isaac Newton was an English physicist and mathematician who are commonly referred to as one of the most influential scientists of all time as well as a key figure in the scientific revolution. Newton formulated the laws of motion and the universal gravitation that dominated scientists’ view of the physical universe for over the next three centuries. He also has demonstrated that the motion of objects on the Earth and that the celestial bodies could be described by the same principles. When he was deriving Kepler’s laws of planetary motion from his mathematical description of gravity, Newton removed any of the people’s last doubts about the validity of the model of the cosmos that was heliocentric. Near the start of Albert Einstein’s career he was beginning to think that Newtonian mechanics was no longer enough to reconcile the laws of classical mechanics with the laws of the electromagnetic field. While he was doing this it led him to his special theory of relativity. Thus he realized that the principle of relativity could also be extended to the gravitational fields, and this sparked his subsequent theory of gravitation in 1916...

...(Smith & Mendoza, 2011). Several scores have been directed to increased demand in the housing sector while other have resulted in concluding it was the failure of the financial regulation authorities. The severe effect caused the United States economy job market loss approximately 8 million workers as the inflation rate declined to near zero. The main purpose of the paper is to give clear insights of what caused the increase in the structured finance market and eventually its fall. In this study, the researcher set out to show that only securities that exhibited confidence when underlying them and how they attracted investors by making them appear as high paying. The study will also go an extra mile in explaining the correlation that is existing in the financial market components. Applying the structured prototype in security of finance, the researcher uses CDO (collateralized debt obligation) in illustrating that issuance of capital structure increases the likelihood occurrence of under evaluating of underlying securities and evaluation of risks. The researcher obtains data from secondary sources and Wall Street Journals. The results obtained indicated that credit rating agencies over rated their credits against collateral securities leading to miscalculation and wrong presumptions that saw the economy rise and then come down tumbling (Smith & Mendoza, 2011).

...The Assassination of J. F. K. Ronald J. Conti Professor: Kathy Hartwell Mountain State University Spring 2012 Abstract This paper is going to tell of mainly the assassination of, President John F. Kennedy. It will give a brief description of his early and later life, his time in the senate, his presidency, and finally his assassination. To get some of the information on the afternoon of the assassination, one can go to youtube.com. They have some really good videos. Some of them are theories and some are actual footage. It truly was a very sad day for his family, and for the rest of the country. There are various conspiracy theories surrounding the assassination, but what is written in this paper may only go along with one of them. The Assassination of J. F. K. John F. “Jack” Kennedy was born on, May 29, 1917, to Joseph Patrick Kennedy Sr., and Rose Elizabeth Fitzgerald Kennedy. As siblings go, John was the second eldest of nine children. John’s father was the first chair of the Securities and Exchange Commission and, later, an ambassador to London. John is the second son of four boys born to Joseph and Rose.

...BRAIN DRAIN Human capital flight, more commonly referred to as "brain drain", is the large-scale emigration of individuals with technical skills or knowledge. The reasons usually include two aspects which respectively come from countries and individuals. In terms of countries, the reasons may be social environment (in source countries: lack of opportunities, political instability, economic depression, health risks; in host countries: rich opportunities, political stability and freedom, developed economy, better living conditions). In terms of individual reasons, there are family influences (overseas relatives, and personal preference: preference for exploring, ambition for an improved career, etc. Although the term originally referred to technology workers leaving a nation, the meaning has broadened into: "the departure of educated or professional people from one country, economic sector, or field for another, usually for better pay or living conditions". Brain drain is usually regarded as an economic cost, since emigrants usually take with them the fraction of value of their training sponsored by the government or other organizations. It is a parallel of capital flight, which refers to the same movement of financial capital. Brain drain is often associated with de-skilling of emigrants in their country of destination, while their country of emigration experiences the draining of skilled individuals. The term brain drain was coined by the Royal Society to describe the emigration...
