...People’s dependence on welfare is a prevalent problem in today’s society. Many believe that the cost of welfare spending is far too high. Those people look down upon others that are on welfare and make assumptions that are often times false. The common thought about woman on welfare is that they are lazy. It is said that these ladies have babies without thinking, become approved for welfare, and then the same happens to their children in the future. It is seen as an ongoing cycle. I believe that in order for one to make a judgment about who can and cant be on welfare, one needs to asses the families living condition and circumstances. Some things that should be considered while doing this involve seeing how many children the family has, the mother’s income, and if there is a father figure bringing money into the home. After considering all of the different factors, then I believe that’s when one should decide how much welfare a family should receive. In the reading it states that a common family on welfare will spend an average of 213 dollars for housing, 262 dollars for food, 336 dollars for other things, and 64 dollars for non-essential items. This all adds up when there’s only one small income coming in from month to month. A single mother would have quite a hard time paying for all of these things right out of her pocket, so that’s why the state and government came up with welfare benefit plans. These plans consist of AFDC, food stamps, SSI, and ELTC. These plans help those...

It need cover lots of talents, experts, high effective team members to contribute all idea and ability to make it come true. 2. In a mature industry, it is hard to get an innovation.

...Although often overlooked, being able-bodied is a privilege in which one can benefit from mainstream culture, as they can easily mold to the standards of a capitalistic and ableist society. The one-dimensional culture that simplifies and diminishes the complexities of the handicapped, eerily mirrors that of the simplification and “ghettoization” of youths in working-class communities. Within, Lulu Miller and Alix Spiegel’s podcast, “Invisibilia” they provide a radical analysis on the social construction of blindness, and how society’s low expectations of the blind are translated and inculcated into physical reality. In conjunction with the theme of “low expectations” placed on a marginalized community, we similarly discussed how poor people...

...Maggie Alderson in 2005. Are you ready, Boots is about an English girl named Lulu and her black leather boots. I will go through the following themes: Summary of the content, Characterization of Lulu, A comment on the role of men and a Conclusion. It begins with Lulu, her very good friend Spencer and another friend are in New York in four days. In a shoe department sale she finds these stunning boots, so fantastic that she they were made for her, and she buys them. But when they’re back in England, Lulu doesn’t want to wear them because they were so expensive. But six month later when she’s about to go out with Spencer, he asks her kindly, and encourages her to wear them. When she does that night, she meets a very attractive and kind man called Charlie. Later that night she walks directly to him (with her leather boots on), starts to talk with him and starts to flatter him. He become Lulu’s boyfriend, and he seems to be the one and only. It’s only Spencer who doesn’t think it’s okay, maybe because he is envious. After some time, Charlie proposes and she says yes.

...contractor because Lulu has no control over the details of Jeremy’s work performance. She does not exercise considerable control of his work, his occupation is distinctly different from that of Lulu’s, his work is usually done without supervision, Lulu does not supply his tools for his occupation, and the job that he’s hired for requires a high degree of skill. Also, his term of employment is only until the house is sold and his one-time fee is paid at the completion of the sale. According to the text, an independent contractor is “a person who contracts with another to do something for him or her but who is not controlled by the other nor subject to the others right to control with respect to his or her physical conduct in the performance of the undertaking. He or she may not be an agent” (Clarkson, Miller, Cross, 2012, p. 625). Lulu is not liable for Mary and Ollie’s injuries because, even though Jeremy Jip is an agent representing LuLu Lowlife, his day to day activities are still those of an independent contractor, not an employee. According to the text “To determine whether the relationship of the parties is that of employer and servant or that of employer and independent contractor, the primary test is whether the employer retains the right to control the time, manner and method of executing the work” (Clarkson, Miller, Cross, 2012, p. 626). Again, Jeremy’s occupational activities are unsupervised, which is an important factor for determining his employee status. Lulu did not supply...

...effect supply chain. LULULEMON ATHLETICA. Lulu lemon athletica commonly known as Lulu lemon is a clothing retail chain founded by Dennis Wilson in 1998. Originating in Vancouver British Columbia. The Canadian based company has stores in the USA, New Zealand and Australia with a total of 201. They mainly manufacture their products on home soil in Vancouver but have expanded to other countries, which include China, United States of America, Israel, Taiwan, India, Peru and Indonesia. March 2013 Lulu lemon put out the Luon black yoga pants. These looked like the typical lulu lemon yoga pants. They had the quality; the style but lacked the coverage of the usual product. This caused a huge controversy. Everywhere people were talking about lulu lemon see through yoga pants. The pants were too sheer to the point they were transparent. Almost every media outlet was talking about it, the sheer yoga pants from lulu lemon. This brought production to a halt. They had to do a recall. These particular pants totaled 17% of the all pants in all of lulu lemon stores. This was a huge loss of profit. On top of loosing profit this company lost their good reputation and stocks went down by 6%. Because of this costly mistake their expected 11% sales gain has been decreased by about 3 to 6 %.. There are customers who have turned away from the athletic clothing retailer because they no longer trust in their product. This is not the first time the Lulu lemon has had issues with the quality of their...

...love. In “Are you ready boots?” Lulu’s superficiality doesn’t let her see who Charlie really is. She falls in love with the wrong person. Miss Lulu is a very kind person; she doesn’t seem stupid or anything. She’s a beautiful young girl who is living in England. Lulu is a stylish person, she wants to look good, and she is very confident, she knows what she want. But Lulu is also very superficial. Lulu only cares about what she sees and what she sees has to be perfect. Just like Spencer is, he is perfect from the outside. And that is why she falls in love with him. She actually doesn’t know whom Charlie really is she doesn’t know Charlie’s personality. She is blinded by his handsomeness. Lulu is also a girl who loves to posses’ expensive/beautiful stuff, like her Manolo Boots, the big diamond ring and Charlie’s Porsche. Charlie has the possibility to give her all the expensive stuff she wants to posses, because he is a wealthy man. Lulu only finds out who Charlie really is because her best friend Spencer says “but are you sure he isn’t an eensy weensy bit straight for you? You know, boring?”. After that Lulu realizes all the mistakes that Charlie actually haves “ He didn’t crack jokes like Spencer and I did. He repeated formulated jokes people had told him”. A first person narrator tells, “Are you ready boots?”. It is told by Lulu who experiences all of this by herself. This makes it easier for the reader to identify him or her with the main character, to put them self in...

...Are You Ready, Boots? 1. The story starts in medias res. A woman named Lulu and her good friends Spencer and Betty are out shopping shoes after having had a lunch accompanied by two bottles of Chrystal. Lulu is trying on some very high, very kinky boots and is really excited about them. She ends up buying them, though kind of regretting it several months later and not wearing them until later in the winter when she, one evening, goes out with Spencer and some of his pals. They go to a bar and here she meets a guy called Charlie. He is the perfect man; handsome, British, rich and very charming. They start going out and Lulu is very fond of him. Though her friend Spencer finds him boring and not fun enough for his best friend, Lulu still accept Charlie’s offer to be his girlfriend and go meet his parents. One evening Lulu wears the boots she wore the day they met and Charlie tells her how hideous and slutty he finds them. Then Lulu’s mind is made up: Charlie is a boring, pompous ass and so wrong for her, so she ends up leaving him. 2. Lulu is the main character. She is a typical modern woman. Full of ambitions, fashion-minded and longing for her “soul mate”. She thinks she wants a rich, well educated and seemingly perfect man, but finds herself wrong when she dumps Charlie. Although the story doesn’t exactly say she leaves Charlie, that is what I get from the last line in the story: “Are you ready boots?” I said to them. “Start walking.” She has a sense of humour (told...
