The story that I like the most is “Big Bill”. The personality of each character, either the main or minor characters, is totally different and that made the story pretty interesting. The theme “friendship” made it even more appealing to me. Therefore, I had chosen this story to be the one that I will be writing about in this essay. The main character of this story is Tulsi Babu. He is different from most ordinary beings, as he is not surprised by almost everything. He thinks that “everything” has a reason behind it. This part in the story would convince you in that, “‘Tulsi Babu went back to his desk. ‘I can’t see what’s so special about a double rainbow. Even there were twenty rainbows in the sky, there would be nothing surprising about that. Why, one can just as well go and stare at the double-spired church in Lower Circular Road!’” Sometimes, he will add a little sense of humour that will make his words interesting. Tulsi is a part-time herbalist and an upper division clerk of Arbuthnot & Co Company. He is scrupulous in his work and the sentence “Baba gave adequate directions which Tulsi Babu noted down carefully.” tells us so. Not only is he hardworking, he also treats, Bill, his “ex-pet” very good. He gave Bill the best when it was in his house and he was really sad while saying goodbye to Bill the last time. He even lost his appetite when he sent Bill back where it had came from, although you cannot see from his facial expression. He is also very thoughtful towards other people too. When he discovered that Bill attacked his neighbour’s cat, he sent Bill away the next day. And when he knew that it had killed almost every single living thing in the forest, he fed it with herbal medicine that would turn Bill into a vegetarian. In my opinion, he differ a lot from his looks. Inside, he’s a kind and humorous guy, but outside, he looks strict. The minor

Theory

...a week, and talk about spending Brian´s inheritance on a flat in which they will live together. Brian is thinking seriously about the flat, but just as seriously about buying a Harley as soon as he gets his drivers-license, to impress his friend in Hells Angels, and maybe even make them a bit envious. Boozy doesn´t want Brian to move out just yet, so as soon as the inheritance is paid out, she spends a big part of her own inheritance and some of Brian´s, on decorating the garage in a super cool way, in order for Brian to live there.

Non-Conventional and Creative Marketing

...May 2014 Non-Conventional and Creative marketing Final Project – Foldable bags campaign Round Up The message we wanted to pursue with this campaign compiles itself in one phrase, -“small changes adds up to big changes”-. Our campaign literally brings to life our message. And at the same time gives a useful bag in a location where people are most likely to use it. A second giveaway will add interactivity to the experience; this will only be given on certain locations due to its use. For this one the message is a bit different but is relevant to the cause and mostly to the action we are looking to increase. This message is: “give it… someone will catch it”. The tone of the two ideas we created is very simple and straight to the point, we developed a variety of foldable shopping bags (see appendix a.1), different designs reflecting a message for each different fundraiser, the point of the campaign is to symbolize the action of giving a small contribution could make a big impact on a person in need. The bag in its folded state will look spherical symbolizing a coin, with the image of an Agorot printed on it, when the bag is unfold it becomes much bigger and will contain a strong image with a short message on it, logo and web site of Round Up as well (see appendix a.1). The second idea is a giveaway as well but this time only to be given in the main beaches of Israel together with the foldable bag. It will be a white Frisbee (see appendix a.2) with the same design of...

Counterfeiting

...Counterfeiting Counterfeiting is one of the oldest jobs in the world. Basically if there is a way of even trying people would do anything to make money and take advantage of the benefits of having money. Many people try to produce “fake” money however even though the standards are so high and the chances are small, more and more people get a way of falsifying money. Most of these bills are sold to drug dealers, and they are little by little “washed” and spread across the country. There are bad bills, the ones that cannot pass certain checks, and there are the good ones, made by people like Art Williams. The bills that someone is trying to “master” over the years, the bills that someone puts so much effort into that is considered almost a pure hobby. For Art Williams counterfeiting money was not all about the benefits that money could bring, as much as it was for his accomplishment as being a master in what he does. Even though that was against the law. Banks have tried for years to design money in different ways just so less and less notes are provoking loss among customers. “A secure design offers a means of avoiding counterfeiting by reducing the profitability of doing so, but comes at the price of higher production cost for the central bank.” (Y. Lengwiler) If the notes are overlapping, as soon as they are in circulation and the bank realizes that there are more money out there than they should be, the cost of things is raising...

Case Discussion Polarities

...the team’s performance as a whole and on each individual team member’s performance. Were she to focus on one avenue more than the other, we can safely assume she was not as effective as she could be (Hirschhorn, 2001). “They are called paradox, dilemma and tensions. We refer to them as polarities; but whatever they are called, it has been documented that individuals and organizations that manage them well outperform those that don’t. Polarities are competing values that need each in order to achieve a greater purpose over time. One example is activity and rest. We need both in order to live a healthy life. (Irvin, 2008, p. 1)” 2.

Visa

...we now seem to have an administration that's open to suggestions, I'm going to risk making one. The single biggest thing the government could do to increase the number of startups in this country is a policy that would cost nothing: establish a new class of visa for startup founders. The biggest constraint on the number of new startups that get created in the US is not tax policy or employment law or even Sarbanes-Oxley. It's that we won't let the people who want to start them into the country. Letting just 10,000 startup founders into the country each year could have a visible effect on the economy. If we assume 4 people per startup, which is probably an overestimate, that's 2500 new companies. Each year. They wouldn't all grow as big as Google, but out of 2500 some would come close. By definition these 10,000 founders wouldn't be taking jobs from Americans: it could be part of the terms of the visa that they couldn't work for existing companies, only new ones they'd founded. In fact they'd cause there to be more jobs for Americans, because the companies they started would hire more employees as they grew. The tricky part might seem to be how one defined a startup. But that could be solved quite easily: let the market decide. Startup investors work hard to find the best startups. The government could not do better than to piggyback on their expertise, and use investment by recognized startup investors as the test of whether a company was a real startup. How would...

Food Experience

...roommate, “What kinds of food are they eating?” “Wait, let me look.” He responded and looked at the next table too. After few minutes, he pointed at one dish on the menu and indefinitely said “Maybe, they ordered these. We can ask the waiter.” Finally, I ordered the one which was the same as the next table’s dishes. While we were waited for our dishes, we were talking about some interested things and laughing. After about half an hour, here came my food which is steak, salad and soup. I tasted the dishes and found the food were very delicious. I ate the meal very fast and finished it very quickly. I wiped my napkin across my mouth, and belched loudly. After we finished the meals, we needed to wait for the waiter to pay the bill. When we got the bill, we started talking about how much tips we needed to pay. Finally, we just paid a ten percent service charge because in my mind, I thought it was enough.
