...Dansk terminsprøve Essay Natali Josevski 3.a Menneskets behov for fortællinger Fortællinger er som et stykke kunst, der i mange år har eksisteret i form af mundtlighed, såvel som skriftlighed. Men det at skulle læse og kunne fortolke et værk, falder ikke alle lige naturligt, mange mennesker mener, det at skulle sætte sig ned og indleve sig i 150 siders tekst, er spild af tid, mens det for andre bruges som afslapning og et break fra den virkelige verden. Men selvom vi alle har forskellige holdninger, til det at skulle sidde ned og fortolke en hel bog, hvordan ville det så se ud, hvis vi alle besluttede os for at læse den samme bog, ville vi kunne få den samme forståelse? Derudover ville det så være muligt for det enkelte individ, at identificere sig selv med bogens personer samt dens handling? Se det er et stort spørgsmål, som jeg tvivler på de ...

...Acquisition Valuation Aswath Damodaran Aswath Damodaran 1 Issues in Acquisition Valuation I Acquisition valuations are complex, because the valuation often involved issues like synergy and control, which go beyond just valuing a target firm. It is important on the right sequence, including • When should you consider synergy? • Where does the method of payment enter the process. I I Can synergy be valued, and if so, how? What is the value of control? How can you estimate the value? Aswath Damodaran 2 Steps involved in an Acquisition Valuation I I I I I Step 1: Establish a motive for the acquisition Step 2: Choose a target Step 3: Value the target with the acquisition motive built in. Step 4: Decide on the mode of payment - cash or stock, and if cash, arrange for financing - debt or equity. Step 5: Choose the accounting method for the merger/acquisition purchase or pooling. Aswath Damodaran 3 Step 1: Motives behind acquisitions (1) Simplest rationale is undervaluation, i.e., that firms that are undervalued by financial markets, relative to true value, will be targeted for acquisition by those who recognize this anomaly. (2) A more controversial reason is diversification, with the intent of stabilizing earnings and reducing risk. (3) Synergy refers to the potential additional value from combining two firms, either from operational or financial sources. • • Operating Synergy can come from higher growth or lower costs Financial Synergy...

...Hermesmann 1 Anna Hermesmann Nothing From Nothing: Concepts of Justice in King Lear Ex nihilio nihilfit—“nothing comes from nothing.” In the pre-Christian world of Shakespeare‟s King Lear, this doctrine rules as the actions of the characters prove futile and tragedy results. Lear fails to maintain order in his kingdom and his family; Gloucester loses his sight; and Cordelia, the only one who really loves her father, dies. Critics such as Samuel Johnson have argued that because of Cordelia‟s death, Shakespeare‟s ending is flawed, that he fails to follow the “natural ideas of justice” by allowing “Cordelia to perish in a just cause.” In 1689, approximately eighty years after Shakespeare completed the first text of King Lear, Nahum Tate published an alternate ending to the play in which Cordelia lives and eventually goes on to rule in her father‟s place. While this “happy” ending was performed as if it were Shakespeare‟s original for decades afterwards, it actually runs contrary to the original version of King Lear by applying Judeo-Christian human concepts of justice to a world that is not governed by a just God. In the nihilistic world Shakespeare creates, there is no just force to establish an objective morality, and therefore, the rules of right and wrong, and the consequences of each, are obsolete. Thus, because King Lear is set in a world in which the generally accepted rules of justice do not apply, Shakespeare‟s ending, including the death of the only truly virtuous character...

...bottom of the stairs as I drifted away from my childhood memories. He was holding a letter and had a face like thunder as he crossly waved the envelope towards my outstretched hand. ‘I think it’s your Mothers writing’. Boom Boom Boom!! Sounded the fastness of my heavy heart as I gingerly took the letter from my dad and uttered not a word as I backtracked without a backwards glance to my haven. A mixture of apprehension, fear and anger crashed over me like a tidal wave crashing against my skull, how dare she contact me yet again and put me through all this pain. Slowly, Slowly I open the letter and gingerly remove it from its personal surroundings. This wasn’t the first letter and certainly wasn’t to be the last letter from my mum who was once more asking for reconciliation, forgiveness on my part and offering explanations on hers. A feeling of emptiness laid heavy as I knew that however many letters, texts I received from my mum there was absolutely nothing I could do about contacting her in any possible way because of the...

...------------------------------------------------- Philosophy Western philosophy Some would consider the study of "nothing" to be foolish, a typical response of this type is voiced by Giacomo Casanova (1725–1798) in conversation with his landlord, one Dr. Gozzi, who also happens to be a priest, “ | As everything, for him, was an article of faith, nothing, to his mind, was difficult to understand: the Great Flood had covered the entire world; before, men had the misfortune of living a thousand years; God conversed with them; Noah had taken one hundred years to build the ark; while the earth, suspended in air, stood firmly at the center of the universe that God had created out of nothingness. When I said to him, and proved to him, that the existence of nothingness was absurd, he cut me short, calling me silly.[3] | ” | However, "nothingness" has been treated as a serious subject worthy of research for a very long time. In philosophy, to avoid linguistic traps over the meaning of "nothing", a phrase such as not-being is oftenemployed to unambiguously make clear what is being discussed. Parmenides One of the earliest western philosophers to consider nothing as a concept was Parmenides (5th century BC) who was a Greek philosopher of the monist school. He argued that "nothing" cannot exist by the following line of reasoning: To speak of a thing, one has to speak of a thing that exists. Since we can speak of a thing in the past, it must still exist (in some sense) now and from...

...There's nothing to say about nothing. Still, some people make a fuss about it. Among spiritual seekers, there's a lot of talk about "becoming nothing". On this site about nothing, we're not going to talk about "nothing", because "nothing" can't be talked about. When people talk about "nothing", they're not really talking about nothing, they're talking about something. It's not a real nothing, it's a "nothing" they can hold in their mind. It's a nothing that feels like something, perhaps a black hole, perhaps a lonely place. They have words for it, perhaps "void", "emptiness", "nothingness". Nothingness is not nothing. It comes and it goes, so it's got to be something. You can look at it. You can hold it. You can throw it out. And when you throw it out, what's left?... ...And that's all we're going to say about that. This little introduction has nothing to do with the articles on the site. It's just here to confuse the philosophers and perhaps intrigue a few people with a genuine interest in nothing. This is a site about nothing. We hope you enjoy it.

Negative space is the area of an artwork around the primary objects. 2. Identify and describe the three different types of balance in artwork. Symmetrical balance occurs when the weight of the artwork’s composition is evenly distributed. Approximate symmetry occurs when the objects are not identical, but balance has still occurred in the artwork. Asymmetrical balance or informal balance happens when the visual weight in the artwork is not evenly distributed. 3. What is proportion? Proportion relates to the dimensions or size of the different objects or areas in the artwork. 4. What is "hue"? How can hue affect artwork? Hue is simply another name for what we think of as color. Hue can affect artwork by adding depth to the painting. 5. What is balance in art work? Balance relates to distribution of aspects such as color, visual weight, space, texture, and so on within the artwork. Critical Thinking Questions 1. Choose one of the pieces of art from the unit.

...Nullity and Void Jasmine mentioned that she would like to make her current marriage to Annabelle null or void in some way. The meaning of marriage is the union of 2 people meaning since all the formalities were upheld their marriage is valid. The Family Law Act 1975 s 51 (FLA) states that a marriage may be null if the marriage is considered void. Void is not defined in FLA or Marriage Act 1961 (MA) however, In the Marriage of Miller (1983) 49 ALR 689 it is defined as the validity of the marriage being challenged. Void also means that the marriage was invalid from the beginning due to an essential defect that caused the marriage to never come into effect. In accordance with s 23B (1) of the MA, the only way the marriage is able to be made void is on one or more of the grounds stated in subsections (a) through (e) in the aforementioned act. There was no prior existing marriage when the wedding took place therefore this does not apply. They did not begin a prohibited relationship when they married therefore this section does not apply. All formalities were followed as mentioned above consequently this does not apply. A lack of marriageable age does not apply as they were both old enough to marry. If the marriage lacks real consent it will be considered void. Lack of consent is divided into three sections. Mistaken identity does not apply as their identities did not change. As they both had enough mental capacity and understanding of the ceremony, this element does...
