Searching for methods that will add value to companies is also considered the business research process. When researching, one must consider what is in the best interest of the company, its employees, and the community. Community Action is a non-profit organization that operates off of federal and state grants only. When researching what types of grants will profit the agency, it requires a serious though process that has to consider how the services will be beneficial to the community. With the economy on the verge of a downward spiral, Community Action has become a very beneficial agency for people with many types of needs. Anyone needing services such as food, prescriptions, housing, transportation, or early childhood education, can benefit from this agency. Researching the types of services that can be helpful for lower income families or families going through hardships is a very important condition of the agency.

...My personal preferred ethical lens is the rights and responsibility lens. According to the Ethics Game Company, this means that I use my reasoning skills to determine my duties as well as the universal rules that each person should follow. I believe that I was well placed within this lens inventory, as I have been known to try to push my own thoughts and methods onto others. I do not necessarily push that my way is the “correct and only way” to do things, but because I also put a lot of thought into why I do things I definitely push my way as a “pretty good way” and may strongly encourage its use. For me, when a particular problem or just a new job arises that I am unfamiliar with, I tend to spend nearly as much time figuring out how to come to a solution as I do actually solving the problem. I will sit and analyze every possible route and try to see the benefits and consequences of each action. While looking at my options I try to figure out not only what is the best way to do things efficiently but also ethically. My ultimate decision for a course of action comes down to determining what is the best way for me to complete my duties to the best of my ability. In the Army, this lens proves itself quite beneficial but can occasionally have its down sides as well. My meticulousness in all tasks leads me to often excel in my duties as a Soldier. Another strength is that I often do come up with a quality product or course of action for certain tasks that I then share with...

...employee benefits. Currently, the system In place separates every entity into its own subcategory. Before dissecting each category it will be evaluated and will be determined if sections need to be kept or eliminated, as well as what individuals actually use the systems. Following an evaluation of the current system and brainstorming of a new one, its highly important to determine how each system is being used, with hands-on discovery. This is the best way to learn how it is currently being done, as well as the best way to determine what needs to be fixed. Determining the system as well as the users that use them is a good foundation into fixing or recreating a new system. During our project scope phase we will be determining our goals for the new system, deliverables, as well as the cost to implement a new system, and the time it will take to get it all done. All of the following tasks will be delivered in a scope statement. The entire point of creating this now information system is to fix or eliminate the one that is currently in use. The problem with the current one is that it is a mixture of many systems and doesn’t allow for one system to be used. Currently, employees are confused with what is where, and why. However, it is important...

...A Comparison of the tale of “Aladdin and the Enchanted Lamp” and the Disney Movie Aladdin: A Cultural Study According to N. J. Dawood, the translator of The Thousand and One Nights, “Aladdin has been retold or presented to so many different generations all over the world that it can perhaps be rightly described as the most renowned story invented by man”. Interestingly enough, “Aladdin and the Enchanted Lamp” was not part of the original collection of stories that composed The Arabian Nights. No one knows exactly when a given story is originated, but it is obvious that some stories circulated orally for centuries before they actually were collected or written down. The story of Aladdin appeared for the first time in Antoine Galland’s (1646-1715) translation of the Thousand and One Nights, the first major European version. Before Galland, there was no known Arabic version of Aladdin and his lamp. The first Arabic version showed up after Galland’s version and very well could have been translations of Galland’s French version. One of the more recent and most popular versions of “Aladdin” was an animated feature produced in 1992 by Walt Disney Pictures. Aladdin made over $217 million in revenue in the United States, and over $504 million worldwide. Even though the American film and the medieval Arabian tale share common elements and are both plotted around a young impoverished boy named Aladdin, the moral lessons they offer differ in ways that can be described through the values...

...productions until now! I was pleasantly surprised by both plays and did thoroughly enjoy them, as I was a theatre student myself in middle and high school. In The Next Room was the first play I ever saw by FIU theatre and I really believe that the director did a great job executing the play. I was happy to see one of my own sorority sisters up on stage, Michelle Antelo as Mrs. Givings. She was able to project herself very well and kept me engaged with the play throughout the entire show. Antelo greatly contributed to the success of the show. Her acting made it easy for me to suspend my disbelief in order to successfully get involved with the given circumstances of the play. It was clearly noticeable the extra time she put into her character and there was much evidence of preparation. The blocking the actors used on stage was very well thought out and it was also noticeable that all involved equally did their part to make the show a success. Antelo’s character, Mrs. Givings was an emotional one in the play. Antelo’s fascinating was of embodying these emotions are what kept me engaged throughout. I bring up her projection again because to me, it was powerful and it was one of the main things that stood out about her as an actress. She made her character believable and the chemistry her and her husband, Dr. Givings, had on set was a recipe for success in this production. Antelo’s beats were clearly evident and her changes were effective. Again, it was her vocal tension that kept...

...herself from the rest of her village after her father’s death, the narrator of The Yellow Wallpaper having to spend all her time in the a room she hates because of her disease, or the narrator of Acquainted with the Night strolling through the nightly city all by herself in solitude. All of these stories contain the very popular theme of loneliness and isolation,which are shown using various literary devices of each author’s choosing. Throughout the whole story of A Rose for Emily, the setting seemed to be very eerie and unnatural; the author gave the readers a feeling that made them almost sense the loneliness emanating from the protagonist, Miss Emily:“That was two years after her father’s death and a short time after her sweetheart-the one we believed would marry her-had deserted her. After her father’s death she went out very little; after her sweetheart went away, people hardly saw her at all” (53 Faulkner). This made it known right...

...the thieves find him there, and kill him. When his brother does not come back, Ali Baba goes to the cave to look for him, and finds the body, bringing it home. With the help of Morgiana, a clever slave-girl in Kasim's household, they are able to give Kasim a proper burial without arousing any suspicions about his death. The thieves, finding the body gone, realize that somebody else must know their secret, and set out to track him down. The first several times they are foiled by Morgiana, who is now a member of Ali Baba's household, but eventually they are able to ascertain the location of Ali Baba's house. The lead thief pretends to be an oil merchant in need of Ali Baba's hospitality, bringing with him mules loaded with 40 oil jars, one filled with oil, the other 39 with the other thieves. Once Ali Baba is asleep, the thieves plan to kill him. Again, Morgiana discovers and foils the plan, killing the 39 thieves in their oil jars by pouring boiling oil on them. When their leader comes to rouse his men, he discovers that they are dead, and escapes. The lead thief, disguised as a merchant, befriends Ali Baba's nephew (who is now in charge of the late Kasim's business), and is invited to dinner at Ali...

...when it comes to stealing. They start to think things through instead of just going at it. The striking thing about that scene is that it shows the children enjoying the scene and having fun, while Antoine and his friend are in the corner plotting with evil thoughts, not enjoying the show. 2) One street scene that I found that interested me was at 24 minutes into the movie, after Antoine had left the carnival. While walking with his friend through the streets, he saw the once beautiful place of what was known as Paris (it’s still beautiful, just not as much as before), as well as his mother, while she was making out with a man who wasn’t her husband. Just this scene alone portrays that in the 1950s, Paris wasn’t the best place to be. Although it was pretty, it was also very busy and crowded on the streets. Anything could happen. 3) One scene I found visually stunning was the carnival scene where he was in the spinning ride. Although I may be wrong, but I feel as if the director included that scene to give an insight of how Antoine’s mind is and he's foreshadowing the rest of the film. The spinning of the ride refers to how Antoine is a confused kid just trying to get through. At one point of the ride, he is completely upside down. That is when his life turns for the worse when he’s sent off to boot camp/military school. The end of the ride is him banging on the door with excitement and walking out with a huge smile on his face. That’s foreshadowing how he escapes the camp...

The king is therefore forced to delay her execution in order to hear the conclusion. On the next night, she tells the king another story and this turns into a series of stories that go on for one thousand and one nights (Haddawy 16). Universal Theme Immortality The Arabian Nights comprises of a sequence of stories which do not have an ending. The passing on of the tales is universally seen as a means of preservation.
