...For our study, we will be distributing a 20 question survey to all 200 student-athletes at Rogers State University (RSU). There will be five questions per variable of our study. We will be using the Likert scale to determine the relationship between caffeine consumption, academic success, athletic performance, and sleep quality. We will distribute the survey to all of the coaches to give to their student-athletes to fill out before or after practice, and then collect those from all eight of RSU head coaches. This survey will be completely anonymous and the only indicators that we will have will be the sport that person plays, gender, height, and weight. On the survey we will ask how much caffeine they consume daily based on the table that we previously provided. We will question the type and amount of caffeinated beverage they had in a day (i.e. 1 cup 8 oz. cup...

...Akina Warren American Intercontinental University Unit 3 Individual Project BUSN-300-Lower Division Capstone August 5, 2012 When going for a job or career change it is important to work for a company that is interesting, prosperous, and fits the morality lifestyle I live. These characteristics keeps me at a since of peace when knowing that I didn’t compromise my own ethics, morals or integrity for the sake of having a job. Therefore with this in mind I narrowed the playing field down to three promising firms for my marketing manager profession. The three companies I have chosen are Wal-Mart Stores Inc., Home Depot, and Amazon.com. I will explain in detail throughout this paper why these three companies are my primary candidates Wal-Mart has been around for forty years and was founded upon saving the consumer money. In this fiscal year alone the company has had approximately $444 billion sales and we are only in the eight month of the year. This is a fast pace continually growing company. They currently have 2.2 million associates worldwide and are located in 27 countries as well as all fifty states in the U.S. The biggest asset for working at this company is that they service up to 200 million customers and associates on a weekly basis. Being a customer of Wal-Mart, I have noticed that when the employees have been trained on offering the consumer their brand for an even lesser amount. With this in mind, I would encourage the firm to maybe focus on advertising their...

...support him. But if the situation were reversed, I feel that if his relationship with his parents is not a very good one, then the proper support from his friends and teachers could be a big help to him. Before this class, I never really considered what a major influence a child's environment can have. I knew about the "nature vs. nurture" theory, but I would have thought that the child's parents would have the most influence on them. But after examining all aspects of a child's life, I feel that a child's peers, school and community are even more important. References Baumrind, Diana (2003, August) Parenting Styles.

...ordered. This leads to a demand of 8 million tags in 1979. The annual demand will increase by 30%. Regarding this assumption the demand for new orders will be 29,7 millions in 1984. The second factor is the replacement quote of tags, which are already installed. In 1979 were 48 million tags installed in systems. Due to losses or damages 25% of all installed tags have to be replaced. This means also, that the new 25% of the new orders have to be replaced. The following table shows the demand forecast till 1984 in millions tags.

...发展初期 施华洛世奇公司 施华洛世奇公司 施华洛世奇公司的发展初期，也就是20世纪上半叶，适逢一个战乱频繁、经济动荡的年代，但丹尼尔向来善于在逆境中寻找新路，而无名小镇瓦腾斯也成为了令丹尼尔事业腾飞的风水宝地，不但帮助施华洛世奇的水晶产品打开了市场，而且还激发了源源不断的创新灵感。20世纪初，丹尼尔的三个儿子威廉、弗里德里希和阿尔弗雷德开始陆续参与父亲的经营制造业务。丹尼尔从1908年开始试制人造水晶。他们在瓦腾斯的别墅旁边专门建造了一个实验室，花3年时间设计制作了融化炉。1913年，施华洛世奇开始大规模生产自己的无瑕疵人造水晶石，这些水晶及宝石产品很快受到了市场的热烈追捧。伴随第一次世界大战爆发，施华洛世奇陷入了缺少机械设备和原材料的窘境，丹尼尔经过两年的研制，于1917年又推出了自动打磨机，用来加工水晶制品，1919年丹尼尔给这种机器注册了专利。20世纪20年代，欧美时尚界开始流行装饰着珍珠和水晶的裙装。看到了新兴的市场需求，丹尼尔在1931年发明了一种大受时尚界欢迎的石带，上面缀满漂亮的碎水晶，可以直接缝在衣服或鞋子上。施华洛世奇的水晶由此成了抢手货，在香奈儿、古驰、迪奥等顶级时尚品牌以及电影公司和众多好莱坞明星之间左右逢源。 生产线延伸 从此以后，公司的产品线不断地延伸到每一个能被水晶装饰的角落。今天游客们只要在瓦腾斯的“施华洛世奇水晶世界”里转一圈，就能了解这些产品是多么地贴近人们的生活。除了时装、鞋帽、手表、首饰上的水晶装饰来自施华洛世奇以外，当顾客走进售卖户外运动品的商店购买用于打猎和观鸟的望远镜时，望远镜的品牌很可能是“Swarovski Optik”，它源自丹尼尔长子威廉在1935年的创造。而纽约大都会剧院、巴黎凡尔赛宫，甚至是中国人民大会堂的水晶吊灯都是施华洛世奇出品的“STRASS”。 到了1976年，瓦腾斯成就了施华洛世奇历史上的另一个飞跃。当年的冬季奥运会在蒂罗尔州首府因斯布鲁克举行，而施华洛世奇的设计师Max Schreck也在偶然的情况下利用水晶灯具部件的零碎材料拼凑着做出一只水晶老鼠。它是公司历史上推向市场的第一款水晶成品，立即成为冬奥会的畅销纪念品。受此启发，施华洛世奇乘胜追击地推出了一系列以小动物、花草等为主题的“银水晶”摆件产品。1987年，公司成立了“施华洛世奇收藏者俱乐部”，至今，收藏俱乐部已经在世界30多个国家拥有45万会员，“银水晶”系列成为施华洛世奇公司的标志产品。 这就难怪施华洛世奇的第五代传人马可斯在中国访问期间，被问到是否会像世界许多大公司一样利用中国的劳动力优势在中国建厂时，马可斯笑了：“一百多年来，瓦腾斯的水土成就了施华洛世奇这个品牌，我们只会在瓦腾斯的土地上续写这个神话。”而瓦腾斯也因为施华洛世奇的崛起而由当初默默无闻的小镇发展成奥地利最著名的工业区之一。该镇居民中有1/3的人都是公司的员工，而剩下的人中则有80%以上从事与施华洛世奇相关的旅游、餐饮及服务行业。 家族之争 丹尼尔·施华洛世奇于1956年过世，享年94岁，他身后留下了一个极其庞大的家族。截至2010年，施华洛世奇家族的成员已超过150人，其中有28人在公司内从事高级管理工作，并由6人构成公司的最高决策和管理层。 曾在美国求学、毕业后在香港负责销售和分销工作的娜佳提倡前者。她发现施华洛世奇品牌在欧洲和美国市场有着截然不同的含义：在欧洲和亚洲，施华洛世奇水晶被视为雅致的礼品；而在美国，人们成批购买的是动物造型的水晶摆设。当人们听到娜佳的姓氏后最典型的反应竟然是：“施华洛世奇，你是说那些动物吗？”这令娜佳很受挫折：“我欣赏动物造型水晶，但不想等同于它们。” ...

...Brainerd went to Durham and worked on his farm until he turned twenty. He desired a liberal education, and started to study strictly, because he wanted to be in the ministry. The 1738 David Brainerd went to live with a man named Mr. Fiske, and at his advice he began to keep company with people older than himself. After Mr. Fiske died he continued his studies with his brother, and seeing the carelessness of religious matters in his professors made him of a self-righteous mindset. In the winter of 1738 he felt the conviction of God upon him for the first time, and began to fear the consequences of sin. He feared at one point that the ground would open up under his feet and send his soul to hell, but many disappointments followed that made him question God’s dealings with man. In his heart, he wished for some other way of salvation than by the sacrifice of Jesus Christ. Brainerd was frustrated with the strictness of God’s law, faith as the condition of salvation, what he had to have faith in, and the authority of God. In 1739 on the evening of the Lord’s day he finally saw God in His glory and perfection, Brainerd’s eyes were open. In September David Brainerd went to Yale College, but feared to live in so many temptations. January 1740, he had the Measles, and had to be sent home, but soon he was well and returned. During his third year at Yale, Brainerd gave a bad opinion of a professor and was expelled. In late July of 1742 he was examined at Danbury for his learning and spiritual...
