There are an array of different ways everyday that make modern economy work. The author begins with the question who feeds Pariss? It’s a starting point to explain how markets are powerful influences in a person’s every day life. The AUthor explains how markets use prices to allocate scarce resources and how markets are self-correcting. Author talks about how the market gears up and aligns incentives such that individuals work for their own self-interest for an improved standard of living. The author explains how the soviet socialist economy failed because the bureaucracy of the government controlled the economy. This chapter says that it is not fair to impose preferences on others. He says that it is bad economics to impose preferences on individuals whose lives are much different from all the rest.

...cold war was off. The next 40 years, relations between the two countries differentiated between confrontation and détente. Each tried to increase their worldwide influences and spread its competing economic and political systems. During this period of time, the competitors were at the brink of war. What weapons were used during the cold war? One major weapon that was used to fight this war was money. On March 12, 1947, President Truman announced that he would give each Greece and turkey $400 million in aid. Giving these countries money will show that we are willing to help those in need of review; we will pick them up off the ground and push them in a better direction. (DOC.2) Another weapon that was used was alliances. The united states made a treaty call the` North Atlantic Treaty` which was signed by the U.S, CANADA, and ten other nations of western Europe in 1948. This treaty says that if either country is attacked, that we will have their back in war. Today there is 28 states in the treaty. Before his presidency, Dwight D Eisenhower was supreme allied commander and got that title in January of 1951. (DOC.4) The last weapon used to fight in the war was the arms race. The United States was the first country to create, test, and use the nuclear weapons to use on the Japanese to surrender at the end of WWII. The arms race was one of the most important parts of the cold war. Both of the superpowers created technology and used their nuclear power to build as many weapons as possible...

...population directly in order to show tourists the real Vietnam. Local people can become guides who give tourists the authentic travel experiences, activities and anything such as food, beautiful sightseeing, etc. They even invite them to eat dinner with their family and this is the best experiences while you can eat local food and listen to their story about their country. For instance, we can take them to the local market to show them how the traditional Vietnamese buy food and buy the ingredients for a real home-made Pho or Banh Xeo, then take them to Cho Ben Thanh to shopping or show them the most beautiful view of Vietnam in Ha Long Bay. This is the most interesting things when you experiences real things and live their dalily life. According to Ronald Crooy, CTO of Withlocals said “The idea is to let poeple use their own skills and strengths. No one knows more about his or her community than a local! They are the experts of their area. Think about it, how amazing would it be to eat together with tourists your favorite hmoemade Banh Xeo and earn money at the same time?”. By becoming a guide, we are showing the tourists the cuture of Vietnam, how friendly and warm the Vietnamese people are. The second ways is tourism organizations can use social...

Part of me wants to know how they ended up there.The other part of me wants to help. It pains me because sometimes I feel that I am too young to help. In school, teachers are hard on students, tellings us to stay in school or else we will end up on the street. But dropping out of school isn't the only reason people become homeless.

...The term "marketing mix" became popular after Neil H. Borden published his article The Concepts of the Marketing Mix in 1964. In this article Borden explains how he first began using this term in the late 1940's after James Culliton described the marketikng manager as a "mix of ingredients". These ingredients in Borden's teachings included product, planning, price, branding, distribution channels, personal selling, advertising, promotions, packaging, display, servicing, physical handling, and fact finding analysis. These ingredients were later grouped by E. Jerome McCarthy into four categories which we now refer to as the four p's of marketing (NetMBA 2007). The four p's of marketing make up the marketing mix which is probably the most well known of all the marketing terms. "Its elements are the basic, tactical components of a marketing plan. The four p's, of the marketing mix elements are product, place, promotion and price" (Marketing teacher 2009). These four elements create the marketing mix which impacts the development of any organization's marketing strategies and tactics. The concept is simple. Think about a cake and the components of a cake. There are certain ingredients that are required but one can alter how much of each ingredient is added. The same goes with marketing. The four p's are required but depending on the organization there may be more emphasis on one and less on another. But one thing remains the same, all four p's are necessary. "The majority of people...

...mother introduced me to sports when she decided to put me in little league baseball for my first sport. Although, growing up I didn't have my father around to teach me how to play sports I learned how on my own with the help of coaches.

...Book I What is justice? Why should we be just? Cephalus - Justice means living up to your legal obligations and being honest. - Socrates - Its like returning weapon to a madman.. he'll kill people. Polemarchus - Justice means that you owe friends help, and you owe enemies harm. - Socrates - we are not always friends with the most virtuous, nor are our enemies always teh scum of society Thrasymachus , sophist - Justice is nothing more than the advantage of the stronger-- it does not pay to be just.Justice is a conventon imposed on us, and it does not benefit us to adhere to it. The rational thing is to ignore it. - Socrates 1. This promotes injustice as a virtue. In his view, life is like a continual competition to get more. And whoever is most successful has the most virtue? Thats bullshit! mathematicians dont compete with others, etc 2. In order to reach any of Thrasymachus' goals, you must atleast be moderately just to even follow them. 3. Since justice is a virtue of the soul, and virtue of teh soul means health of the soul, justice is desirable because it means health of the soul. Book II Glaucon - All good can be divided into 3 classes: 1. Things we desire for consequences (physical training, medical treatment) 2. Things we desire for their own sake (joy) 3. Things we desire for own sake and for what we get from them (knowledge, sight, health) - highest class - Most people class justice in the first group, as a necessary evil, allowing...

Although later Adolf wouold run the Gestapo later in 1934 for now they worked in Berlin protecting important parts of the city. Soon the Gestapo were working in Germany the Gestapo become a law onto itself. There were Gestapos and there were plain clothed agents and they were almost the same only that the plain clothed agents had more rights then the Gestapo. The The Gestapo headquaters were in Berlin and sometimes that is where they could meet up with other Gestapo’s and dicuss rules and what they need to do to make their country better.The Gestapo had to go through a certain training before being a Gestapo agent. The training to be a Gestapo was hard work, some poeple didn’t even make it through training it was so hard on them. The readers and the researchers Gestapo group were picked based off the Geerman stereotype. There were three types of Gestapos, the Kriminal assitant, the Kriminal obersassistant, Kriminalskertar, and Kirkinalinspektor. Going from least experienced to most experienced. Many people were forced to join the Gestapo party, some people that were that joined the party were ex-police.

...Home- when James baldwin talks about home he says it after talking about a soldier who was in world war two and realizes that even thought he was more free overseas than in America he was still treated harshly. Then when he comes “home” to the place he defended he is being treated lke a subhuman so, what is the point of defending the prinicples of this “home” when you get treated like you don’t belong. “Trickology”- James Baldwin quotes Elijah Muhammed in saying this. I think that it means all the defenitions of a white world in which what all white people have told black poeple should be taken as truth, but it also becomes a black persons truth, because to oppose this trickology is to oppose what the oppressive system wants you to believe. Denying theses lies would certainly lead to the downfall of that human being. 5.”A certain hope died,a certain respect for white americans faded. One began to pity them or to hate them” I think this is important for his story , because it gives an idea about how most African Americans felt about White Americans during this time. Which i believe is what he was trying to convey with this essay overall that African Americans had given up on trying to understand and accept white...

...walking but he did the right thing by helping Mayella on multiple occasions. Although Tom is victim of racism he still does what is right to those who may even opposed his culture. Lastly we see people doing the right thing when a sordid and malevolent Bob Ewell attacks the kids on their way home after the Halloween pageant. First off we see Scout “[run] in the directions of Jem’s screams and [sunk] into a flabby male stomach”(Lee 262). Scout did the right by going back to help rescue her brother when she could have easily just kept on running and escaped any future harm from Mr. Ewell under the oak tree (prep). “Suddenly [Bob] was jerked backwards and flung on the ground”(Lee 262) by Boo Radley, a mysterious character throughout the whole of the story, (appositive) trying to help the kids fight off Bob. Boo, a character know to live his life in a house with many eccentricities, could of stayed where he was inside his house without anyone knowing that he was able to help. Instead Boo did just the opposite but putting himself in a violent fight with people he had never spoken to. Both Boo and Scout are very different characters but when it comes down to it they will both be similar in that they do the right thing. As shown throughout TKAM Harper Lee demonstrates on multiple occasion through many poeple that one should do the right thing and not the easy way out mainly through Atticus, Tom, and the scuffle with Bob Ewell. Now that people realize that some very famous literary characters...

...The Third Dumpster The Third Dumpster by Gish Jen is the story of chinese brothers; Goodwin Lee and Morehouse, relocating their parents to a new home. Jen writes the story in a comical contrasting way. The language and ideals of the brothers contrasts that of their parents. Jen uses many constrasting sentences throughout his story in the conversations of Goodwin and Morehouse. The language used by Morehouse and Goodwin’s parents, is funny and prejudice. Jen begins the story by telling us that the brothers have bought a house for their parents because they couldn’t climb the stairs in their apartment anymore. ’’..they had been Americans for fifty years and could no longer belay themselves hand over hand up their apartment stair rail to get to their bedroom..’’ here Jen uses some contrast that isn’t out in the open, he states that even though they had been americans for fifty years they couldn’t bring themselves up the stairs. The contrats can be found in their age saying that ’’they had been americans for fifty years’’ before they were able to climb the stairs now they can’t. Jen continues the story with the brothers as they are fixing the house and now need a place to dump their garbage. Here Jen shows a contrast in society and how it affects some people, ”Goodwin was out scouting for dumpster. Becuase this was what the recession meant in their neck of the woods…” ’’He (Goodwin) did not, of course, like the idea of illicit trash disposal; he would have perferred to do this...

...citizens after Brutus was done explaining to them why he killed Caesar. The romans were swayed towards Brutus’s side before Mark Anthony talked to them. When Mark Anthony started talking to the Roman citizens he had to sway them on his side, of why he thinks the killing was unjust. He did this by using just the right words to enrage them. For example Mark Anthony said “Here is the will, under Caesar’s seal, To every Roman citizen he gives, To every several man, seventy-five drachmas.” (3,2,236-238) With this quote Mark Anthony was able to enrage the crowd into a mob. Just with these few words he was able to sway them. Mark Anthony said “Now let it work. Mischief, thou art afoot, Take thou what course thou wilt.” (3,2,256-257) In this quote we hear Anthony gloating on how easily he was able to sway the Roman citizens. Another example would be when Cassius easily swayed Brutus, by writing a letter saying “To speak and strike? O Rome, I make thee promise. If the redress will follow, thou receivest Thy full petition at the hand of Brutus!” (2.1.56-58) Cassius wrote a fake letter and was able to sway Brutus with these last words into joining there conspiracy. Which led to the killing Julius Caesar. These quotes just show how people are easily swayed with the right set of words and can be changed into mob or...
