...housewife is depicted here as she ought to be; the poet shows how she governs and increases the wealth of the house, and thereby also advances the position of her husband in the common estimation, and he refers all these, her virtues and her prudence, to the fear of God as their root. The worthy woman is a rare person among humanity because she aids the man in every aspect of the home. Not many women have the desire, grit, health, physical strength, and stamina to do what this woman does. To examine the worthy woman of God in the scriptures is to embark upon a journey that leaves a man at awe in relationship to this person's faith, work ethic, love, devotion, and trustworthiness. The woman who meets the identity of "worthy" has the trust of her husband. The husband will trust this woman's marital fidelity and her genuine love for their children's spiritual well being. The "worthy woman" gives no cause for the man to be concerned of adultery, ruinous behavior around children, or the home period. Her desire for the overall well fare of her home is well known. The worthy woman is a "crown of her husband" in that he trust her and is not ashamed of her ways (Proverbs 12:4 / 7:17-20). The woman who lacks discretion, lacks kindness, flirtatious with other men, lazy, and odious is an embarrassment and rottenness in the bones of her husband (Proverbs 7:9-12). The writer also places a heavy emphasis on her hands. The worthy woman's hands are working hands rather than idle hands. The chapter...

...Lightning Inc. (MLI) partnered between two entrepreneurs Jack Peterson and David Scott. Over the years these two partners have developed differences, which have escalated to the point of separation. Hence, in this assignment we are going to provide solution that would be required as the partnership culminates. Overview of the case The partners of the company Midwest Lightning have over the years developed differences and they are now at complete 180 degrees when it comes to their views about the business. The solution that has been suggested is that the partnership should end as the differences have become irreconcilable. In the course of separation, various issues have now arisen, regarding the valuation of the company and how much worth each partner should be accrued in the event of separation. 1) Evaluation of the company-Buy and Sell bids Allen Burke, the accountant of Jack Peterson and David Scott suggested a bid agreement. The agreement finalised was that both owners had agreed on the signing of a mutual buyout agreement. The agreement mentioned that the owners were to submit a secret bid in relation to what the other owner’s half of the business should be. The partner that would offer the maximum price would then buy out the share of other partner. A minimum bid that was established was at $ 500,000. The bids would comprise of two parts: the first part would be made up of cash payment and the other part would be of a five year non competition agreement. ...

...dictionary you will find seven to eight different definitions of the word rich. The one definition that is the driving force in this day and age, states that rich is “having abundant possessions and especially material wealth.” I think most people strive for this. With this kind of rich every other meaningful thing in life seems to come together, you can buy any car you want, any house you want, and even any girl you want; but what is life if you only strive for material possessions? I strive to be rich in personal values, family traditions, and most importantly rich in my heart. Television has many examples of the stereotypical rich person. On one channel there may be Oprah Winfrey who in the past two years has passed the $1 billion net worth mark, and on another channel Bill Gates, who has for the last eight or so years been the richest person in the United States. Our world is full of rich people; sometimes we fail to realize it. For instance King Mswati III is the sole ruler of Swaziland, Africa, the last monarchy on this earth; he has rich traditions that extend beyond the stereotypical rich. Saudia Arabia’s King Abdullah bin Abdul Aziz and his family have been the richest family...

...BUMO 796 University of Maryland Smith School of Business Spring 2014 Name: Chia-Sheng Chang (Tony) Title: A master of the Legitimacy of reciprocity Date: 04/27/2014 I am very excited to choose the Social Power theory of Raven to be the subject for my thought paper. In the following, I will focus on the Legitimacy of reciprocity and discuss it from my personal experience. The law of reciprocity is defined as- the norm that we should repay those who help us. In other words, it implies that- I did that for you, so you should feel obligated to do this for me(Gouldner,1960). In Taiwan, one of our most successful entrepreneurs, Samuel Yin, is indeed a master of the reciprocity law. Being the chairman of Ruentex Financial Group, Samuel is ranked #500 in Forbes 2014. I always remember his motto:“The more goodwill we carry, the more karmic reward we will have”. At this time, most Taiwanese businessman in china invests plenty amount of money to circulate the governors for their business. However, Samuel’s attitude toward cultivating network in china led him to a much higher altitude and even more rewards. Back in 1989, realizing China’s insufficiency in higher education, Samuel donated 10 million USD to establish the best business school in China, Guanghua School of Management of Peking University. Moreover, there are more than 100,000 outstanding students in China’s top universities have received his scholarship before. Nowadays, most of them play an important...

Wendy Davis is a well-educated woman who has broken barriers in her carrier and fought for the education systems in Texas because she knows the importance of it. It was not an easy road to success for Davis; she has been through many trails on her journey.

...In this book “Ann of Ava” is a journey of a girl becoming a woman. The story is about the life of an ambitious, hardworking missionary who has to deal with struggles, changes, and many lessons. Ann took risks for God, and in doing so she learned various things behind for her own good. Nancy (Ann) has brown, curly hair and brown eyes. She is beautiful, selfless and kind. Much like her determined husband, Adoniram, she is a devoted Christian. The thing that stood out the most about Ann is that despite how beautiful she is on the outside, she cares more about what kind of person she is on the inside. Instead of easily becoming self-centred she only focused on other people and their needs. Ann and her husband have such good motives. It seems as though Nancy changed so much and so little at the same time. She took the step to become a Christian, and an even bigger step to be the first foreign woman missionary. Through every change and struggle Nancy matured. Even when everything changed, she remained true to herself and to God. Ann of Ava made a point of faith and trust. Even though we will all be let down or disappointed, faith is what makes life worth living. Sometimes we will have to trust people even if we don’t want to. We must always trust god and desire to lean on him only. Ann truly became herself in her hometown of Massachusetts where she gave her life to God. Then she shared her life with Adoniram. Although that’s where she got her start Burma is the place where she...

...A woman, in Islam had been given economic independence since the very beginning. There are many matters that can be looked at where we can see Muslim women have complete economic independence. A Muslim woman is allowed to work but certain limitations exist as to what jobs this woman may have. For example, according to our teachings a woman should be only be checked by a female doctor and females should only be taught by females and hence we can see that there is a specific skill set that a woman can utilize in the form of a job in Islam. However, according to Islam, the most important and major role for a woman is that of a wife and a mother. And in many instances it has been emphasized that the most fulfilling job that a woman can do is to take care of her family and be there for them. This stems from the point that Islam considers a mother to the most important part of a child’s upbringing as she is the one who teaches the child the basic ways of life, the proper etiquettes and is responsible for the early learning of a child. This, however does not mean that a woman cannot work when it is needed to survive as long as she observes proper Islamic conduct. With aspect of how much a woman should be paid for a job that she is doing, there is no such saying or evidence present that tells us that a woman should be paid less than a man. Islam has given equal rights to women and hence according to that teaching women should be paid the same as a man. Another economic aspect in Islam...

...sexualized women; (a) back in the 50’s you would see ad’s claiming, “so the harder a wife works harder, the cuter she looks” which devalues women basing their self worth on how well they can cook or clean, this was an ad for cereal. Other ads and commercials have gotten less blunt, but they are still just as demeaning. Other ads are either sexualizing women or are demeaning body types and showing you what the “perfect woman” looks like, but in reality are unreachable expectations. One ad in particular that was in the subway in London, got mass media attention (b), promoting diet pills it showed that, that level of skinny is healthy and attainable when I reality it’s not. Saying that the only way your ever going to be “beach body ready” is if you look like this, which most of us do not because this is unattainable level of beauty. People eventually signed a petition to remove the ad, after defacing the ad,...

...seldom treated…..” (Page 449). Some may argue that obesity is a woman’s disease, I would say this is primarily true, obesity is a disease that affect men as well but in today’s society media plays a big role in our everyday lives. The things that are highly favored by majority can reflect our own lifestyles. However the pressure to look a certain way, and maintain a certain weight is forced upon females in dominant American culture, this gives society the presumption that this is very much so a female issue. As a man in America you are not pressured as much to hold a self-imagine. In fact a man can be judge of social status by the woman he has on his arm. Yet being a woman of great social value and worth requires you to have a...

...True Women of the West To see a women’s true worth is deeper then beauty. If she does not document her story, then who will tell it in its full truth? Throughout history a woman’s story was lost. As a society we have glamorized history of women who were called, Red Light Women, Soiled Doves, and Painted ladies. History books leave out many details of what these women lives were really like. Today’s equal rights activist, Roma Thompson, takes a different approach in bringing awareness about todays current equal rights issues. Roma has spent the last three decades designing costumes and doing research on important women in Colorado history, to present to groups, all over the western United States. Thompson’s passion of the rough life of a working girl in the Wild West, opened her eyes to the ugly true of the battle of equal right’s that women have endured throughout history. Every women in history had a story, from the parlor women, to the Madam’s, and history’s leading women activist. Even though, women still struggle to be equal in today’s society, Roma feels that educating on the women in the past, will bring awareness to the true worth and importance of women in the world. Thompson creatively transports her audience back in time to the early 1900s, starting with the painted ladies and madams, and leads into women who inspired her the most. Brothels could be found in all different areas—mining towns, cow towns, logging camps, large cities, cattle-shipping centers, end-of-track...

...modern mass media, the value of a woman has more to do with her physical appearance than her personal achievements. There are many themes in documentaries such as this one which wish to give viewers more knowledge on a particular subject, but I will focus on the media’s portrayal of a woman’s worth is relative to her attractiveness, sex sells, and the hypocrisy society shows between women and men. Often when a female does some good for society, she is subjected to scrutiny of her looks. When she is good looking, she gets teased by comedians as “senate barbie,” or a woman who got ahead because of looks. And if she is not attractive, political cartoons take advantage and print exaggerations of physical features to caricature proportions. Both of these draw away from the work of the individual and put the focus on physical appearance. From Axe, to Victorias Secret, companies all over the world use sex as a selling point. They use buxom models to fill out lingerie, or show beautiful girls flocking to men who use their scents. They use it because it works, whether that speaks to the tactics of advertising, or the failure of our society to recognize the impact this has on our young women, it is reality. When men are fat, they are generally categorized as funny, when women are fat, they are categorized as ugly, or gross. That is just one of the many hypocrisies the media shows between men and women. The media treats men who are able to get woman into the bed with them as suave,...

...50 Ways To Be A Woman 1. Practice good personal grooming habits. If you are going to have colored hair, keep your roots covered. If you are going to have fake nails, keep them filled. Take care of your skin, take care of your teeth. 2. Dress modestly. Gain attention through who you are rather than the parts of your body you choose to expose. It is worth far more in the long run. 3. Certain fashion staples will always remain timeless. A few conservative dresses, a string of pearls, a nice handbag and a good pair of pumps should always be in your wardrobe. 4. Write thank you notes. It is one of the best ways to make a good impression and literally takes five seconds. It is a dying art that so desperately needs to be revived. If someone is nice enough to give you a gift or recommend you to a position, the least you can do is give them a proper thank you. People remember thank you notes. 5. Get involved. Join societies and organizations that have a positive influence in your community. Create positive exposure for yourself. 6. Learn how to write checks and keep a check book. You may never need to use it, but if there comes a time that you need to, you’ll feel stupid if you don’t know how. 7. Form opinions. On political matters. On current events. Be able to contribute to a conversation as an informed member of society. Knowing when to exert these opinions and when to keep them to yourself is just as important. 8. Take a stance and do not falter...
