...My parents always told me to be the same person inside the house as I am outside of the house. So, dramaturgical analysis has not affected me that much in that regard. However, in tense situations like talking to my head coach about a sensitive issue, this action has applied. If it was something I was nervous to talk about, then I would rehearse it in my mind. Also, my backstage behavior would be extremely nervous but my front stage behavior would come off calm, cool, and collected. Dramaturgical analysis is important and applies to many parts of life. Although, I try not to be nervous in tense situations. I have learned not to care about what other people think. Growing up I was always tall. Sometimes I was “freakishly” tall, as many kids my age would say. At first I let this bother me and get to me. However, when I mentioned the problem to my mom she told me no two people were the same and me being tall was a blessing. This concept is called the looking-glass self which is, “The conceptions we have of ourselves are derived from the responses of...

...while an Arab is a member of Semitic people, originally from the Arabian peninsula. 4) It is accurate to state that Mohammad shared similarities with Jesus Christ and Augustus Caesar. Mohammad shared similarities with Jesus Christ like both teaching and spreading the word of God. They both had many followers, and were able to convert people into their respective religion. Mohammad shared similarities with Augustus Caesar like both being successful in getting their followers to respect the, by being fair and a good ruler to their followers. 5) The connection that exists between the word submission and the terms Islam and Muslim is that the Islam and Muslim faiths were both under the control and believed on the words of God and his teachings. So in order to do so, they had to submit to God. 6) To Muslims, Mecca was more important than Medina. This is because Muhammad, the teacher to Muslims, was born in Mecca. Also, Mecca assumed control of trade and quickly became successful, due to their geography which made attacks from other places difficult. Although Medina was the first city-state to have Islam as their main religion, Mecca became successful quickly and reached prosperity. 7) The umma and the caliphate were different, in that the umma was a group of people who accepted Islam and Muhammad. This meant that they believed that Muhammad was truly the "Messenger of God", which is what Muhammad stated. On the other hand, the caliphate which was an Islamic government that was led...

...Robinson as a hero, and he has been idolized as a role model to the African American baseball community. It is an unarguable fact that he was the first to tear down the color barriers within professional baseball. The topic of Robinson’s role in integration has long been a point of discussion amongst baseball historians. Researchers have accumulated thousands of accredited documents and interviews with friends and team mates such as short stop, Pee Wee Reese, and team owner, Branch Rickey. However, few journalists have asked why Robinson was selected and what was Branch Rickey’s motivation? While Robinson was the first Negro player to break into the ranks of professional baseball, it can be argued that he was not the first to attempt the undertaking. In actuality, Jackie possibly was not even the first player the Brooklyn Dodgers’ organization considered for the job. The Warner Brothers film, 42, The Jackie Robinson Story (2013), highlights the accomplishments of Jackie and rightfully so, as he was an amazing man. The story actually starts prior to 1947 and ends years later in 1959, three years after his retirement in 1956. Early in his career at Ohio Wesleyan University, where Branch Rickey played and coached baseball, an incident occurred with one of his young black players, Charlie Thomas, which would forever change Rickey’s life, the future of integration of major league baseball, and would have an impact on the civil rights movement. Jackie Robinson’s amazing accomplishments...

...Running head: ASSESSMENT AND ANALYSIS Assessment and Analysis of Cedar Rapids, Iowa Assessment and Analysis of Cedar Rapids, Iowa Nurses assess patients to evaluate their health status. Assessments help to discover health problems, areas that need improvement, and at risk health concerns. The data is then analyzed and used in planning and implementing effective nursing care. The health status of a community is evaluated by community health nurses. The community is defined with three critical components: people, place, and social interactions or common characteristics, interest, or goals (Maurer & Smith, 2009). To assess a community the nurse then needs to assess the people in a particular place along with their social interactions or common characteristics, interest, or goals (Maurer & Smith, 2009) which can also include: Geopolitical data, Phenomenological data, social interactions, goals, beliefs, and functional health assessment. In this paper we will example how a community health nurse would compile and collect the data needed to assess a specific community. Cedar Rapids, Iowa is a community that is without a doubt, unique. The people of Cedar Rapids are described to be “pushy”, often even aggressive. This personality could result from the election officials pushing people to pay attention to poll changes. The changes to local precincts came about because of the 2010 census and population shifts around Marion and Cedar Rapids. County...

...Principals of Management Article Analysis Today, with the work force facing a borderless world, companies and its managing teams continue to look towards the future to implement the numerous benefits of workforce diversity into the short and long terms successes of their businesses. Therefore the workforce of big companies are looking beyond anti-discrimination laws and realizing it’s more of a marketing issue. CEOs, senior line and HR management, and diversity leaders play a key role in this process. For that reason, for example, IBM decided to view the issues surrounding diversity on a global scale from the workplace to the marketplace. That’s is why IBM has created an innovative global strategic framework that it is “as broad and diverse as the costumer base it serves in 165 countries” (Human Resources Management, 2005, Vol. 44, No.1, p. 75). In the article written by J.T. (Ted) Child Jr., the Vice President of Global Workforce Diversity for IBM acknowledges the importance of workforce diversity to their business, culture as well as a keystone of their values. He recognizes that HR department plays a large role in instituting diversity, however the company must come together to achieve that purpose. Managers at IBM are asking all the right questions when implementing the key principles of diversity. The company reflects the broad variety of costumer it has at all levels.

...give a better idea of the difference in nature and nurture. Lots of people believe nature plays the larger part. A person’s genes can determine whether a person is predisposed to a disease or illness for example people who are born with genetic disorder such as Down syndrome have trouble with information processing. Their mental hardware, which are cognitive structures including different memories where information is stored, and their mental software, which are organized sets of cognitive processes that enable people to complete specific takes like reading sentences, playing video games, or hitting a baseball. These things will ultimately effect the way they grow up and the way they see and do things. A person who is affected with those types of diseases shows how nature can directly effect the development of an individual. A new technique called developmental genetic analysis is a procedure that examines the effects of genes throughout a person’s life. The technique concluded that a person’s intelligence is due about 50% to the genes they are born with. Furthermore, the nature debate is credible because of the genetic factors that support how people’s personalities and appearance develops, yet the nurture of a person ultimately overshadows the nature debate because...

...Most people generally accept that as a country, America was founded on religions principals. Many of the writings of the founding fathers, including our own Declaration of Independence, include religious doctrine as not only the partial justification for our separation from mother England but also as a part of the vision of how our new nation would be successful. Over time, our society and culture have changed so that today, even though people claim to be religious, religion is certainly not as main stream in our culture as it once was. By better understanding our society in colonial America, how the denominational makeup of churchgoers has changed, how our legal system has both protected and not protected religion’s presence in our daily lives, the influence of different organizations and social movements on religious practices and perceptions, the change in how Christians are perceived and finally the changes in the message that the church is preaching the reader will be able to understand not only how America has changed but also how contemporary Christian leaders and organizations are trying to remain relevant and consistent with God’s word. Colonial America & Our Founding Fathers From the settling of our nation to the Revolutionary War, religion was much more a part of mainstream society. The pervasive nature of religion had an impact on those who led the fight for our freedom. The period of history leading up to the Revolutionary War is commonly referred to as the...

...Overview Company Brief Adidas is on the move and always has been: It has had an adventurous history since it first grew out of a family business in Herzogenaurach, Germany in the 1920s. With the hostile separation of two brothers’ interests in the 1940s, nearly going bust in the 1980s and then executing two rescue operations, first by sending production offshore to Asia and then by reinventing itself into a design and marketing company, Adidas has riden the waves of change in the sports goods sector both up and down. Alongside its own brands, it owned the Saloman ski and sportswear brand for nearly a decade and now includes the Reebok, Taylormade Golf and Rockport brands in its stable. Company Highlights * BECOMING A TRUE MULTI-SPORTS SPECIALIST From Herzogenaurach to the world: the 3-Stripes kept expanding to more and more sports throughout the years. This is reflected in the broad range of athletes who trust adidas to make them better: besides the usual suspects such as the world’s best football players, like the Argentinean national team, outdoor icon Reinhold Messner climbed mountains in adidas shoes and gymnast Nadia Comaneci scored a perfect 10, repeatedly. * A COMPUTER FOR YOUR FEET, It sounds quite common today, but back in the ‘80s, a computer did not belong, much less fit, in your shoe. Didn’t stop adidas from putting it in there. An innovation ahead of its time, the Micropacer featured a system – known today as miCoach – providing performance statistics...

...might concentrate its distribution and advertising in the southwest. A chain saw company might only market its products in areas with forests. Geographic segmentation can take many forms (urban versus rural, north versus south, seacoasts versus interior, warm areas versus cold, high-humidity areas versus dry areas, high-elevation versus low-elevation areas, and so on). These examples also reveal that geographic segmentation is sometimes a surrogate for (or a means to) other types of segmentation. The purpose of segmentation is the concentration of marketing energy and force on the subdivision (or the market segment) to gain a competitive advantage within the segment. graphics, lifestyles, values, behaviors, and multivar- iate cluster analysis routines. Market segmentation is a much broader concept, however, and pervades the practice of business throughout the world. What is market segmentation? At its most basic level, the term “market segmentation” refers to subdividing a market along some commonality, similarity, or kinship.

The purpose of segmentation is the concentration of marketing energy and force on the subdivision (or the market segment) to gain a competitive advantage within the segment.
