...Sophocles' Oedipus is a perfect fit to Aristotle's Ideal Tragic Hero. Oedipus follows all of the rules, with a hamartia, an anagnorisis, and a peripeteia. The audience is introduced to the hamartia, or tragic flaw, of Oedipus early in the play. Oedipus believes he can dodge the oracle given to him at Delphi that he will kill his father and marry his mother. By leaving the city of Corinth and heading to Thebes, Oedipus thinks that he can outsmart the will that the gods have for him. However, the audience knows that one cannot run away from an oracle. The oracle will come true no matter what is done. Therefore, the hamartia of Oedipus is his belief that he can evade his oracle. Oedipus' anagnorisis, recognition, later comes when he is told that it was he who killed the former King Lauis and that he is, in fact, now married to his own mother. The city of Thebes had been searching for King Lauis' murderer in order to drive him out of Thebes to save the city from the plague. With this anagnorisis Oedipus is finally led to his peripeteia, or downfall. First of all, Oedipus is put to shame in front of his entire city because of his incestuous act of marrying his mother. But, more importantly, he realizes that he had not successfully avoided the oracle. In order to try to save himself he blinds himself. If he is not able to see the truth with his own eyes, he should not be able to enjoy the gift of sight. http://personal.monm.edu/ysample/aristotle.htm Oedipus follows ten of the points...

...The article “Apple’s New Organizational Structure Could Help It Move Faster”, which was found on businessinsider.com talks about how the company Apple had to change its business structure after the death of Steve Jobs and what the pros and cons of this new structure will be. Before the death of Steve Jobs, he was in charge of everything and he would be the one who would make the decisions in the company. After he passed away, the senior vice president of design Jony Ive is asking everyone in the company to collaborate with each other, something that never really happened when Steve Jobs was in charge. Everyone in the company is expecting delays because of the fact that everyone has to adjust to the company’s new structure but in the long run, they believe they can get more done by simply communicating with one another. In some certain circumstances, the company Apple was able to get more done when Steve Jobs made all of the calls because he didn’t need no one else’s approval. But since he was the only one making the decisions, he couldn’t handle everything that was going on in the company. In Chapter 11 and in class, we are taught that communication is key for a business as well as having a strong organizational structure that is understandable. Steve Jobs did not have a strong organizational structure so sometimes he would be productive and sometimes he would have delays. Being consistent is also key for a company because it shows everyone that you are able to manage a company...

...Jack Wright: Dealing with External Pressures 9/28/2010 Arbelaez, Camilo Jack had done a good job paving the way for better governance, and board and management relations. He was ready to approach Sam in order to finalize true change in Mega’s board. However, Sam’s unfortunate death changed how Jack was to influence change. Not only his progress was put on hold, but now the financial world targeted Mega to see what it will do next or to take advantage of a mistake. Jack no longer controlled the pace of change. To a great extent, his efforts hinged on the direction the board was about to take. But there were more events that exposed Mega and the directors to external factors other than Sam’s death. The fact that the CEO had overstated the value of the work-in-progress inventories is a sign of poor financial control measurements. The audit committee should have had in place a mandated periodic inventory (every quarter) for all the subsidiaries. The integrity of the CFO comes in question because he did not warn the board or the audit committee. The over-reported findings were identified two months prior to the phone call and the CFO had not made any corrections. The stock value for Mega’s shares in the open market decreased from $35 to $24 per share. This decrease caused tension from the shareholders who all of a sudden saw the value of their investment decrease by 31.43%. To mitigate the pressure from shareholders, Jack and Mega should implement changes in...

...the pitfalls. The second one is loaded terminology. People get many information and loaded terminology from newspapers and broadcast media. Some people think that all the government workers are “mindless bureaucrats”,and all the high profits are “obscene”. Those wrong opinions make people far away from success. The third one is fallacy of composition. People should jump our of their own world to see the whole economics, so that people could get a better view and make good decisions. People should not let the fallacy confuse them. The fourth one is post hoc fallacy. Sometimes, people think event A is the cause of event B because A precedes B. But not all the situation are the same. There is an example that the Great Depression. Many people don’t think that the weaknesses in the economy caused the Great Depression, they think the stock market crash caused it. People should not look at the whole situation to find the cause of an event.The last one is correlation. Many people think that if variable X increases and Y also increases, it is increases in X cause increases in Y. That is not always correct. X and Y are two conjoint things, they have correlation between them, but not causation. Those are five common pitfalls to avoid when people are applying the economics...

...Canon Inc. Goro Yoshida was born in Hiroshima; he worked as an apprentice in a company repairing and remodelling motion picture cameras and projectors in 1920. In those days a high-end camera was very expensive, thus not many people can afford it. But he had a chance to disassembling it due to his job requirement. When he disassembled it, he realised that the inside of the camera was not made of anything expensive. This made him unhappy because the cameras were sold at an exorbitant price but there is nothing expensive in it. Thus from there on, he was determined to create an affordable camera for everyone. Goro Yoshida, Saburo Uchida and Takeo Maeda started a small laboratory dedicated to making high-quality cameras in a simple apartment room in the Roppongi area of Tokyo in 1933. This was also an important stepping stone to the creation of Canon. The three succeeded in building the first prototype, which was named Kwanon after the Buddhist Goddess of Mercy. Then in 1935, Japan's first-ever 35 mm focal-plane-shutter camera, the Hanza Canon, was born, marking the origins of the Canon brand. Today, Canon has successfully become one of the giants in the production of photographic equipments. Their core products remained as digital, film cameras and lens production while they expend their business to camcorders, photocopiers, printers, scanners, projectors, calculators, binoculars and as well as their own ink cartridges. Canon has sales and marketing headquarters around the...

UIHC has the monopoly position in transplant and valve replacements but not in bypass 5. “Privatizing” hospital services Problems/Issues 1. Needs to know the actual cost for each procedure 2. The choice of cost driver (many alternatives provided) 3. Privatization (it means the hospitals can decide their own costs) 4. Payment by OHIC should go down in future Criteria: Costs should be reduced and profits should be increased (this is possible due to privatization) NOTE: Group A’s criteria is to minimize the costs of procedures.

...Taylor Small 09-23-13 Lab Report: Determination of Alcohol Content Blame it on the Alcohol Objective: Boiling is a process familiar to anyone who has cooked pasta or brewed tea. As heat is applied to a pan of water, the temperature of the water increases until it reaches 100°C (212°F). At this temperature, additional heat causes the water to bubble vigorously as the liquid water is converted into gaseous water, or steam. Most organic liquids will behave in a similar fashion. On heating, the temperature of the liquid increases until the boiling point is reached. Additional heating causes the liquid to vaporize accompanied by vigorous bubbling of the liquid. The boiling point of a substance is a physical property of a substance and can be useful for characterizing that substance. The fact that different substances have different boiling points allows us to separate them. The process of heating a substance until it is vaporized, cooling the vapors, and collecting the condensed liquid is the basis of a commonly used purification technique called distillation. Method: The fractional distillation apparatus was set-up as shown in the illustration and was approved by the TA. 50 mL of wine was added into the flask along with boiling chips and the flask was then placed into the heating mantel. A flow of cold water was set-up to continuously run through the condenser and the variac box was set to 5. The temperature at the distilling head was measured and recorded for every mL...
