...Some of us are so caught up in this funny idea that both the party and college culture perpetuate. That you simply cant have fun without alcohol, or worse that non drinkers are lame prude party poopers. This is actually so ridiculously far from the truth. Id argue there’s an increasing alcohol free trend towards parties, social gatherings and nightlife. (like this - https://www.nightnationrun.com/) People are realizing that confidence, charisma, fun and good vibes are something you can genuinely manufacture without mind altering substances. It really comes down to this. Can you find it within yourself to be a confident, happy and genuine person without resorting to a drug to follow a norm or fix(read hide) an insecurity? Ultimately, everyone is looking to get the most out of their nights. While alcohol may be ONE way of doing this, there's no harm in trying a far healthier, cheaper and more effective way of doing it. You...

...situation. We all have seen whites before but have never had much to do with them. But the ten white girls we encounter at the camp are closer to us and, therefore, more real and capable of exciting envy and hatred. At the end of the first day at camp, Arnetta reports she heard one of the white girls refer to Daphne, a black girl, as "a nigger." On prompting by Arnetta, Daphne, a quiet girl, nods her head to confirm that the derogatory term was used. Arnetta tells the other girls that they cannot let the white girls get away with using that word about them. She told us that we must teach the white girls a lesson. Janice suggests that they put daddy-long-legs in the white girls' sleeping bags, and when the girls awake, beat them up. Arnetta told Janice, to shut up and then announced that we are going to hold a secret meeting. She then turned to me and asked if I had plans to tell Mrs. Margolin, who was our troop leader, about the situation. On the second day of camp, our troop ate our sandwich lunch by a stream that borders the field hockey lawn. Arnetta, for some reason, eyed the white...

...How Businesses Are Organised and Their Purposes Division of work Work is divided up in the Coca Cola business because this makes it much easier for employees so that they can get the job done. This takes out conflicts between individuals opinions towards the work they are working on. This will mean that no one can say anything about each other’s work and they can do the work in piece without any contribution from others unless it is wrong that needs to be improved told by the manager. Lines of control This means that if Coca Cola Company knows what they are doing and they can control the activities being done. The heads of Coca Cola set task to the senior managers then they do the same thing setting the task to the employees. The task is divided up in the different sector such as finance would do the finance task and marketing will do marketing task. This way everything can be controlled easier rather than one person doing it all which is impossible to do every sectors job in a large company like Coca Cola. Communication In Coca Cola the communication are set from the top to the bottom. The directors of Coca Cola will tell the managers what task have to be done then they will tell the employees what has to be done too, this can sometimes go wrong as the message is getting passed by a lot of people in the business. Sometime the communication is passed from bottom to top because if something goes wrong in the factory of Coca Cola the employees will have to inform their...

...so many products and services that cost a fortune it is hard to even evaluate a distinct price. Offering retailers that retail Coca Cola a competitive price that ensures they will make profit while the company does as well will get a more financial sound base for selling Coca Cola. Encouraging a competitive retail wholesale to stores and restaurants will offer more companies and places to offer the Coca Cola brand rather than Pepsi if they only own a certain brand. Meeting and going over a company’s expectations and offering valuable discounts brings more buyers and better relationships from seller to buyer in the long run. The economy regulates prices and the fact that someone can pinpoint how much something is and relatively cheap brings up moral from buyers. Offering a company cheap rates and alternative promotions like a free pallet of Coca Cola, after so many are bought and shipped to the store can be a price focus and which would also stimulate Interdependent relationship. With the right price and price focus the Coca Cola Company can prove to their retail buyers that they can competitively price and offer a low rate for Coca Cola in turn building a level in the marketing continuum with their buyers. The Price focus can also provide the Coca Cola customer with a better view on their product. Low prices and sales on Coca Cola drinks is the first...

But then he also pay them the respect they deserve for what they do. He doesn’t take all the credit and lets everyone know that the company relies on all of those to do its day to day business. 2. The Coca Cola company seems more toward Theory Y. Mr. Kent has make it so the employees have the attitude they like to work. They get their things done and are proud of what they do. They also don’t seem to need to be closely supervised in order to get things done. So then supervisors and managers can focus on more important things other than making sure people are doing their job. 3. In the statement that he said he shared that the employees have a major role in helping with things. Whether its exploration, creativity, or professional growth. Having a “say” in things make it so the employee wants to be there and be able to put their opinion in. He also talks about all his employee’s talents, skills, knowledge, experience, and passion. It’s nice to have a CEO believe in you as well as the job that you are doing. 4. I believe that Coca Cola definitely help develop employee self-concept.

...Shot-by-shot Analysis Life of Pi, a 2012 American 3D adventure drama film that composed of live -action and computer-animated adventure based on Yann Martel's novel. This film is directed by Ang Lee, a movie that tells a story within another story based on one simple truth. In the movie, the narrator pi, who was the only survived young man from the sinking Japanese ship caused by the storm. He made to the lifeboat, yet, he was alone in the center of pacific ocean without any supplies but with a tiger called Richard Parker. However, the theme of this film is not just this exciting adventure but is the implicit conflict between Pi and the tiger; Pi’s rationality of believing in God to the animality aspect of his personality, the animalistic side of human nature that he struggled with. Every scenes have highlighted this meaning of how they survived as a whole. However, I found the sequence of when the main character Pi has his emotional changes from fear tiger to kill tiger to the end of living with the tiger is interesting and it reveals the overall meaning of the theme of the film as well. In this particular sequence, the camera has used long shots repeatedly and frequently to align the audience with the filmed characters and with their feelings. The long shot in the looser framing and the wider angle of vision create sense of negativity between Pi the powerful and isolating environment of the ocean. In a image of this sequence, long shot of Pi catching fishes with his tools while...

...-What was the public issue facing the Coca Cola company in this case? What stakeholders were concerned and how did their expectations differ from the company's performance? -Public issue: Corporate impact on water quality, availability and access around the world. -Water is pertinent to Coca Cola because they use 80 billion gallons of water worldwide each year. Because all aspects of the production are dependent on this resource, from the company’s perspective water is the key component of profitability. 2/5 went into finished beverages and the rest went into the manufacturing process: to wash bottles, clean equipment, and provide sanitation for employees. The company used very large quantities of water as part of its operations, and there were concerns that it was operating in a non sustainable manner that was leading to depletion of water, shortage of which was becoming a critical issue across the world. However, Coca-Cola’s extensive use of water adversely impacted the surrounding communities - The Center for Science and the Environment, a think tank in India, charged that Coca Cola products there contained dangerous levels of pesticide residues. -Activists in India charged that the company’s bottling plants used too much water depriving local villagers of supplies for drinking and irrigation - Primary Stakeholders: Coca-Cola, local villagers, non-governmental organizations and India’s government - Expectations v.

...first scene at Ernie’s restaurant. He watches her as she sits and walks out elegantly, while he is sitting in one corner. Hitchcock captures the scene with by taking a tracking shot of the restaurant to give the viewers the feeling of the romantic ambience. The tracking shot zooms out of Scottie to the other side of the room on Madeleine, whose back is facing the camera. This suggests that Hitchcock wants to continue with the theme of suspense throughout the movie, which is why he first takes shots of Madeleine’s back to the camera, followed by the profile shot from a distance. The profile shot is marked by a wooden doorway that frames Madeleine as if she is in the spot light, which she is for Scottie. The camera then zooms in for a close up shot of Madeleine’s profile. The sharp feature of the profile shot highlights her beauty and suggests that there is a mysterious side to her because of which Scottie has fallen in love with. In contrast, Midge is portrayed as being simple and a down to earth woman who has known Scottie for years, because of which she has nothing to hide and is like an open book to Scottie. The fact that there are no mysteries in her for him anymore may suggest why Scottie is...

...the music video, we see a long continuous shot of a moving car in the forest. The first scene uses the sound of the nature to draw the audience in the story. As the car approaches the camera, the video cuts to a medium shot of Michael and a girl. Their car is out of gas. After their brief conversation, the editor directly cuts to their lower bodies walking in the forest. In this scene, we continue to hear the sounds of nature and the steps they take. The camera moves gradually to their upper body. The editor cuts between close-ups of the two characters’ faces during their conversation. After when Michael says he is different, the video directly cuts to the moon. We hear music for the first time in the video to show that something is going to happen. Michael starts to transform to a werewolf. The editor cuts between his transformation and the girl’s reaction. The camera moves closer and closer to the two characters and the editor then cuts between close-ups of Michal’s body parts and the girl’s screaming face. The music intensifies when the werewolf is chasing the girl. The werewolf knocks the girls down. We see cuts between the girl’s face and her point of view. When the werewolf comes very close to the girls, the video immediately cuts to a cinema filled with people. The transition of a direct cut is unexpected to the audience, which pauses the terrifying situation. It seems like the editor...

...Value Alignment Learning Team A Michelle Bolte, Jason Rodriguez-Galarza, Ryan Worsham, Jennifer Patton, Carol Odom BUS/475 March 24, 2014 Ryan Simpson Value Alignment Organizational values are established by the individuals that develop the business and are carried out in the plans and actions of employees and executives of the firm. Although there are inevitable differences between the two, alignment of individual and organizational values help to shape the culture in which the company operates and often the direction of the firm to include both long-term goals and the strategic short-term methods by which they are reached. Below we will analyze how organizational and individual values are reflected in the plans and actions of the Coca Cola organization. Individuals are born amoral, without established values. As each matures and evolves, they develop a sense of moral obligation and a system of values that derives from the people and cultures that they are subjected to. As babies, toddlers, and young children individuals witness and mimic the actions and values of those that they are most frequently surrounded by, mainly their parents or caregivers. They are taught the difference between right and wrong and throughout time develop a set of values from sources such as their parents, peers, religious leaders, educators, and other influential persons such as celebrities and cultural leaders. Although at a younger age people are generally more willing to stray from their...

...1. What was the issue facing The Coca Cola Company in this case? What stakeholders were concerned and how did their expectations differ from the company’s performance? The major issue facing The Coca Cola Company is the availability of water. Because all aspects of the production are dependent on this resource, from the company’s perspective water is the key component of profitability. Other stakeholders, such as residents of the surrounding area and organizations such as the World Wildlife Foundation and other environmental groups had a different point of view; profitability was not a concern. These stakeholders were concerned with long term effects of demand on the water supply and contamination of water runoff. 2. If you applied the strategic radar screens model for this case, which of the eight environments would be most significant and why? The Coca Cola Company (TCCC) seemed to that it did not do deep environmental analysis before they operated in the state of Kerla. If we applied the strategic radar screens model for this case, we believe that the Geophysical and Social environments would be most significant. The plant was surrounded with villagers that would need the water to live, and the mass production capacity for the soft drinks deprived the local villagers of supplies for drinking and irrigation. However, TCCC was not concerned with the physical surroundings of the company’s plant and the effects it would have on the village. In addition to the lack of...
