...The Lovely Bones: A Comparison The book/movie “The Lovely Bones” is about a 14 year old girl named Susie Salmon who gets murdered on December 6th, 1973. The setting of this story takes place in a small town in Pennsylvania. Her murderer was a creepy middle-aged man named Mr. Harvey who was new to the neighborhood. Meanwhile, while no one suspects it was him who killed Susie, her family struggles throughout the book, and movie to cope with the loss of their daughter. Although the book and the movie are the very similar, there are some pretty obvious differences between them. For instance, in the book they say her elbow is found by a neighborhood dog, but in the movie, no elbow was found, just her puff-ball hat her mom knitted her. Another...

...Chapter- One Introduction 1.1 Introduction Unilever is a multi-national corporation, formed of Anglo-Dutch parentage that owns many of the world's consumer product brands in foods, beverages, cleaning agents and personal care products. Unilever employs nearly 180,000 people and had worldwide revenue of almost €40 billion in 2005. Unilever is a dual-listed company consisting of Unilever NV in Rotterdam, Netherlands and Unilever PLC in London, England. This arrangement is similar to that of Reed Elsevier and that of Royal Dutch Shell prior to their unified structure. Both Unilever companies have the same directors and effectively operate as a single business. The current non-executive Chairman of Unilever N.V. and PLC is Michael Treschow while Patrick Cescau is Group Chief Executive, who will retire at the end of 2014. Mr Paul Polman will succeed Patrick Cescau as Group Chief Executive. The company is widely listed on the world's stock exchanges. 1.2 Origin of report Since practical orientation is an integral part of the MBA program, I tried to expose real life performance of Unilever by preparing this report. To prepare this report I have come across with different information of the Unilever. From the collected information I understand the company’s activities in the market as Unilever as in their internal preparation for marketing and others activities.

...C h a p t e r 1 Prewriting GETTING STARTED (OR SOUP-CAN LABELS CAN BE FASCINATING) For many writers, getting started is the hardest part. You may have noticed that when it is time to begin a writing assignment, you suddenly develop an enormous desire to straighten your books, water your plants, or sharpen your pencils for the fifth time. If this situation sounds familiar, you may find it reassuring to know that many professionals undergo these same strange compulsions before they begin writing. Jean Kerr, author of Please Don’t Eat the Daisies, admits that she often finds herself in the kitchen reading soup-can labels—or anything—in order to prolong the moments before taking pen in hand. John C. Calhoun, vice president under Andrew Jackson, insisted he had to plow his fields before he could write, and Joseph Conrad, author of Lord Jim and other novels, is said to have cried on occasion from the sheer dread of sitting down to compose his stories. To spare you as much hand-wringing as possible, this chapter presents some practical suggestions on how to begin writing your short essay. Although all writers must find the methods that work best for them, you may find some of the following ideas helpful. But no matter how you actually begin putting words on paper, it is absolutely essential to maintain two basic ideas concerning your writing task. Before you write a single sentence, you should always remind yourself that 1. You have some valuable ideas to tell your reader,...
