...Name: | Brook Mola | Student No#: | 141639 | Unit Name: | Tertiary Music Studies | Lecturer’s name: | Paul Taylor | Title: | Literature review with annotated bibliography | Assessment No#: | Assessment 1 | Due Date: | Week 6,5pm Friday, 17th October 2014 | Many people have accredited Brian Epstein for The Beatles worldwide success, yet it seems that he has been overlooked as an inductee into the ‘Rock n Roll Hall of Fame Non-Performer Area’ for over 29 years. This review will focus on 3 major things Epstein did to help the Beatles success which emerge repeatedly throughout the literature reviewed. These are: His absolute belief in the band, his vision for the bands’ image, and the Beatles musicality. This paper will primarily focus on whether Epstein contribution to The Beatles success merits a place in the ‘Rock n Roll Hall of Fame Non-Performer Area’. According to Spitz (2005) and Riley (2011) there are two different theories about how Epstein was introduced to the music of the Beatles. Epstein himself states that he was first introduced to the Beatles from a customer Raymond Jones when he requested a copy of ‘My Bonnie’ from the NEMS record store that Epstein managed as part of the family business. “I had never [before] given a thought to any of the Liverpool beat groups then up and coming [sic] in the cellar clubs” (Spitz, 2005, p.266). While Riley (2011) argues that Epstein knew about the Beatles long before he let on. As a prominent record store manager, Epstein...

Gaelic and English are undoubtedly very different languages. The difference in the way words sound and are spelled varies greatly between the two. Yet, when translated, they have the same surface meaning. They do not, though, have the same history and importance. This is the theme of Brian Friel’s play, Translations. When the British army enters Ireland and attempts to anglicise it, first by changing something as seemingly insignificant as street names, it has a great effect on Irish people and culture. In reality, 1833, the time period for this...

The Impact of Action The world seems to belong to those who reach out and grab it with both hands. It belongs to those who do something rather than just wish and hope and plan and pray, and intend to do something someday, when everything is just right. Successful people are not necessarily those who make the right decisions all the time. No one can do that, no matter how smart he is. But once successful people have made a decision, they begin moving toward their objectives stepby-step, and they begin to get feedback or signals to tell them where they’re off course and when course corrections are necessary. As they take action and move toward their goals, they continually get new information that enables them to adjust their plans in large and small ways. It’s important to understand that life is a series of approximations and course adjustments. Let me explain. When an airplane leaves Chicago for Los Angeles, it is off course 99 percent of the time. This is normal and natural and to be expected. The pilot makes continual course corrections, a little to the north, a little to the south. The pilot continually adjusts altitude and throttle. And sure enough, several hours later, the plane touches down at exactly the time predicted when it first became airborne upon leaving Chicago. The entire journey has been a process...

...Security policy is a definition of what it means to be secure for a system, organization or other entity. For an organization, it addresses the constraints on behaviour of its members as well as constraints imposed on adversaries by mechanisms such as doors, locks, keys and walls. For systems, the security policy addresses constraints on functions and flow among them, constraints on access by external systems and adversaries including programs and access to data by people. A guideline is a statement by which to determine a course of action. A guideline aims to streamline particular processes according to a set routine or sound practice. By definition, following a guideline is never mandatory. Guidelines are not binding and are not enforced. Any organisation with substantial IT system coverage will have a number of policies in place that specify the actions required to deal with problems, in routine or non-routine circumstances that occur. Disaster recovery policies A disaster recovery plan is a document that defines the policies and procedures for dealing with various types of disasters that can affect an organization, especially the organization's IT (Information Technology) infrastructure. This is a statement or plan of what to do if things go wrong through acts of theft, destruction (by natural causes such as fire, flood, earthquake etc. or by vandalism) or loss of data, which severely impacts on the business function (or security) of an organisation.

...The climax is when a gargantious bear attacks Brian's shelter. Almost everything he had salvaged from the plane wreckage and from the wilderness was destroyed. At the end of the story a plane noticed Brian and came to rescue him. Come to find out, he didn't want to leave.The book is about a thirteen-year-old boy who is stuck in the wilderness because he was traveling to his father's oilrig in Washington. He has to find his own food and supplies. He does find some things from the plane. For example: A small rifle, blanket, cooking utensils, and other things. His first big kill when he went hunting was a moose. The second encounter with a big animal was the bear. The main character is Brian, the boy stuck in the wilderness.The part I liked most was when Brian rigged up his machine to go to the bottom of the pond to get things from the plane. My least favorite part was at the end when they brought up the Indians who had been there the whole time.I would recommend this book to anyone who likes adventure books. It has some very suspenseful times and it is sometimes funny because of the stupid things the characters do. The only bad part of the book is the very ending. The Indians don't really make sense because if they had been there the whole time then they would have met Brian and helped him out. I would rate this story a 9 on the story scale.It’s a very good book. So in conclusion , this is one of the best books I’ve read. I would have gaven it a 10. But the Idians in the...

...Brian Judge ENG 1111: College Writing 3/23/2010 Museum Visit 1. No, I have been to the museum once before 2. The entrance to the museum is very historical because the outside structure is similar to a palace where kings and queens lived. In order to get in the museum, you have to stand in line and when you get to the front desk, you have to either pay or show an ID if you are a college students. While in line, you can view the televisions above the front desk, which give ticket prices and such. After that, you walk to where security checks your ticket and then lets you in. If you have a bag, they will give you a ticket of some sort for you to come back and get it. The security there is very strict about the policies of the museum such as no touching whatsoever. 3. Two of the areas that I visited in the museum were the Secrets of Tomb 10A: Egypt 2000 B.C. and the exhibit of Albrecht Dürer who was known as aVirtuoso Printmaker. 4. The Egyptian exhibit had a dark setting to it with its historical accuracy. Being in the Egyptian exhibit was extremely exciting for me because since I am a fan of ancient Egypt, I was able to view several fragments, sculptures and tombs that once existed during that time period. Being in Albrecht’s room of prints was different because I hadn’t heard of him when it comes to art, so I was able to have a fresh start. I learned that he was the pivotal figure of Late Gothic and High Renaissance German art. 5. One piece...

...Faith Faith can be a substitute to “belief”, “hope” or “trust”. These are all verbs that are missing in the relationship between Paul and Sarah. However when we are introduced to Brian, a football passionate who starts camping on their rooftop, we are also introduced to a confidence and certainty of a cause. This is one of the main themes in the story “faith” by Nick Hornby, which proves to us, the readers, just how important believing in yourself, and realizing how great an impact your surroundings might have. The story takes place in a flat in London where the couple Paul and Sarah lives. This is where the husband and father Brian invades the roof and life of Paul and Sarah’s. We suppose it takes place in the 21’st century at least build on the mentioning of TV-programs (l. 2, p. 50) and an open-top bus (l. 42, p. 50) for an example. Even though the story has a 3rd person omniscient narrator, we learn mostly about Sarah’s thoughts and a big part of the story is also through her point of view. It is also generally her that changes throughout the story. Sarah feels stuck in her life (l. 21, p. 46), and perhaps that is why she considers the thought of having a baby in the first place. But then she has doubts whether, she is ready to the commitment: “What about work? What about money? What about sleep and friends and smoking and drinking and travelling and what about eating curry, for God’s sake […]” (p. 46 l. 12). As said, Sarah feels stuck and sees her life...

...Brian Williams 560 MGMT Case Analysis #1 JetBlue Introduction JetBlue Airways was founded in 1998 by former Southwest Airlines employee, David Neeleman, The company looks to utilize similar cost savings techniques as Southwest and has even improved, expanded and added some. In addition, JetBlue has attempted to offer differentiation in service to improve the customer experience. Unlike most pointtopoint airlines, JetBlue decided to add a second airplane model in order to expand into the regional flights. A deal was struck to purchase up to 200 jets from Embraer through 2016. The growth the company forecasted was soon realized to not be in the best interests of the future of JetBlue. In 2006 the company executives discovered that the the time it would take in order to just achieve breakeven cash flows with the growth model at that time was much longer than originally anticipated. This, along with dramatically rising fuel costs, meant a new plan would have to be implemented in order to slow growth. In 2007, newly appointed CEO David Barger had to design a way to reduce growth even further. What needed to be decided though was which jets to cut, and how much of each. the A320 was the model that built JetBlue and the aircraft that had proven its success in the past. The E190 provided a new unique opportunity and a niche market that JetBlue may be able to take great advantage of. ...

...with the values of parliament. If this piece had been painted in an alternative location, the effectiveness of Banksy's message would have been lost in interpretation. Evaluating the location and time period is the only way to derive a valid interpretation of Banksy’s artwork within the proper context. The time period is one of the most critical factors of "CND". Banksy's piece "CND" was originally created in 2005, at the Brian Haw Anti-War protest, near the Houses of Parliament in London (Banksy CND). Brian Haw was an English peace promoter who protested in London's Parliament Square against the UK and US foreign policy. Haw began the Parliament Square Peace Campaign in June 2001, before the 2001 attacks on the United States (Brian Haw). Brian Haw desired a better foreign policy focused in the Middle East and endured his protest until his death in 2011 (Brian Haw). Ultimately, Haw became a figure of the anti-war movement and inspired many to speak up for their beliefs. Banksy participated in the anti-war movement by revealing his "CND" painting during the Brian Anti-War Protest. Eventually, the painting was removed by the police, when clearing the site, after a raid for allegedly breaking protesting laws. However, the piece has been recreated and was displayed, in 2007, in the Tate Britain Gallery (Webster, Robin). Often, art acts to speak to particular events or policies in history. Banksy approaches his painting by presenting contrasting concepts in "CND". Banksy creates a juxtaposition...

...through factors such as a person’s image,personality,where they were brought up and their accent. All the characters in the play, making history are identified through where they came from and their accent. Here Friel is attempting to illustrate the difference between class and social status in Ireland during the time of play. Friel has also used the crucial times of Hugh O’Neill post and prior to the Battle of kinsale.One of the key ways in which Friel succeeds in doing this is by implementing the theme of identity and O’Neill’s struggles with this issue of identity throughout the play. Other characters are shown to have split identities, which reinforces Friel ideas of how history will portray them. Making history is a play by, playwright Brian Friel. The play is set in the Elizabethan era, during the renaissance period. From the scenes of the play, Friel uses the events of O’Neill, Earl of Tyrone as his attempt to secure a deal with Spain that will drive the last of Elizabeth’s English forces out of Ireland. As this play is not exact history of Hugh O’Neill, Friel has used certain events and key characters, to explore the concept of identity in making history. Act 1 scene 1 the play begins with the discussion of Christening, in which O’Neill has received an invitation, Friel has used to evidently represent the light heartedness of the rest of the act that follows, before events take a more sinister turn. This discussion is carried out between O’Neill and his personal secretary...

...4. Do you agree “all money is green”? What are the implications of that view? What are the arguments in favour? What are the arguments against? Yes, I agree with that all of the money is green. According to (Eades&Schill Bruner, 2010), which is “all investments at Teletech should be judged against one hurdle rate”. This view indicates that all of the money can create economic value, and all the operations should be performed higher than the hurdle rate. Each segment can be thought of as completely different and more independent, but that could eventually make the company or invest in other departments. If we came back to multiple hurdle rates are illogical which we do not agree with it, because it is only for Investors to judge the company's dividends and they may not accept multiple hurdle rate. Also it will destroy shareholder’s value. 5. Is Helen Buono correct that management would destroy value if all the firm’s assets were invested only in the telecommunications segment? Why or why not? Prepare a numerical example to support your view. As case 15, it can be seen the hurdle rate is segment hurdle rate and not the corporate hurdle rate. Meanwhile the firm should not use the multiple hurdle rates in the different investment; it would destroy value if the firm’s whole assets were invested in the one telecommunication. So, Helen Buono is correct. Hulen Buono has an important purpose is to estimate economic profit, which is in order to judge Helen Buono who is correct...
