...-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Eat Your Heart Out | Paper Magazine Does a Super (Duper) Market Culture, Food By JANE HERMANJuly 13, 2012, 1:30 pm 2 Comments Paper Magazine's Super (Duper) Market Atisha Paulson Brucie Atisha Paulson Scribe Winery Atisha Paulson 123Loading “I’m crying. And dying,” Paper magazine’s Kim Hastreiter says halfway through the tour of her Super (Duper) Market, which will be open Friday through the weekend in Manhattan’s meatpacking district. She is completely elated and, more important, satiated, by what’s in store: “The best ice cream (Humphry Slocombe), the best cornbread (Red Rooster), the best olive oil (Sciabica’s),” she says. Here, at what is a smorgasbord of carefully procured and exquisitely packaged food stuff, all the stars of Hastreiter’s bicoastal culinary-craft world collide. The vendors hail mostly from Brooklyn (Empire Mayonnaise, Morris Kitchen, Mile End) and California’s Bay Area (Boulettes Larder, Modern Appealing Clothing, Tartine Bakery and Cafe). “I’m kind of a maven, and these are really my favorite things,” says Hastreiter pointing to the Tang Brothers noodle stand. “Those are, like, the best noodles.” Walk through the mart and you might sample homemade mozzarella on honey-drizzled toast from the Cobble Hill restaurant Brucie, buy a Sol LeWitt star bowl (Hastreiter’s pick) at...

...Steve used many techniques in his speech to inspire and connect with the graduates at Stanford University. He used emotional appeals in all three of his stories. The emotional appeals connect to the graduates, because it creates a sense of sadness. He told the story of how he dropped out of college, how he was fired from a company that he created, and how he could’ve died from cancer. All of the stories combine to show how even if there are troubles in someone’s life, they can overcome it with hard work and become successful no matter what they went through. Emotional appeals connect to the audience, because the audience might have gone through a similar situation and it could motivate them to become more successful. Steve also used logos when he described how his company started in his garage and it became a $2 billion company. The logos helps connect to the students, because it lets them know that Steve was truly successful and that he started at the very bottom to get to where he is today and that the students could...

The cells will expand to make room for the detail required. Please do not use bold font in your answers. | Give a short background of the issue, opportunity, or problem facing a real organization of your choice: Apple continues to lose valuable smartphone market share to Android. Apple’s market share of the smartphone dropped from 17% to 13% in the last quarter while Android continues to dominate with a 79% market share (Pimentel, 2013). One of the glaring reasons for the loss in market share is that Apple has not introduced any new innovations to the smartphone lineup for over a year (Pepitone, 2013). The competition has been able to release new products much faster than Apple. | What is your primary research question? Why has Apple’s market share dropped from 17% to 13% in the last quarter? | * What is your primary hypothesis?

...11-17-12 Quotes Project for “Glass Menagerie” Quote 1- Throughout the story, “Glass Menagerie”, Tennessee Williams wrote responses of each character that was able to develop the thesis, plot, and themes. Details given early in the book help establish the characters’ personalities and physical looks, which aide to the readers understanding of the characters’ actions. The conversation between Amanda and Laura, (page 17) “Amanda: Girls that aren’t cut out for business careers usually wind up married to some nice man….Laura: But Mother…..I’m- crippled!” reveals that Laura is physically handicapped and she allows her disabilities to determine her choices in life because she is embarrassed. This certain conversation is important because it displays Laura’s insecurity, which affected her decision to drop out of business school. When reading this conversation I became saddened by the fact that Laura allows her physical disability to govern her life. She is held back from being successful in life because she has a mental block. Later in the text, the author reveals to the reader that Laura has no social life and dropped out of business school because she could not handle the pressure. Not only am I saddened by Laura’s yielding behavior, but I can relate to her mental block. When entering high school I was very small, to be exact, I was 5’2 112 pounds, while the average male peer was 5’8 150 pounds. Because of my lack of size, I tended to be non-aggressive; playing football I was...

...the Reorganization Act destroyed the old, traditional form of Indian self government.” Means: This quote means that with the introduction of the Reorganization Act, a new form of politics was bestowed upon the Native Americans. Matters: This quote matters because it shows how the old and important ways of Native American self government was completely destroyed with the Reorganization Act. Just like many countries around the world, the US brought its own form of government to them, and like usual, with disastrous outcomes. 2. Says: “[Annie Mae] could make something out of nothing. She made nice meals with seemingly no provisions except dried beans...

...In The Masque of the Red Death by Edgar Allan Poe, the feeling is sorrow by the end of the story. In the story the author writes, “And one by one dropped the revelers in the blood-bedewed halls of their revel, and died each in the despairing posture of his fall.” This quote proves that the feeling brought is sorrow because of Poe’s choice of words. Poe describes that everyone is “dropping” or dying, due to the Red Death. This brings sorrow because when a person dies, family and friends always feel the pain and sorrow. Throughout the story Poe also uses the words such as bedewed and despairing to create a mood. Both of these words resemble death and death brings a lot of sorrow and pain to individuals. Another quotes that proves sorrow is, “And...

...The Bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki: History's Great Miscalculation On August 6, 1945, a new step in technological warfare was taken when the first atomic bomb was dropped on the city of Hiroshima, Japan. The impact of the bomb alone killed at least 66,000 people.1 This was an event that would not soon be forgotten in history. The Americans, who knew the devastating effects of their new weapon, still chose to use it rather than an alternative means to peace. Many people still argue whether or not it was necessary when Japanese surrender was considered to be a matter of time. Historians also dispute whether the campaign was a morally justified objective. This phrase alone brings up many interesting questions. Can killing thousands of innocent people ever be considered "justified"? Considering these circumstances, the dropping of the atomic bomb on Hiroshima and Nagasaki was not militarily or morally justified. In 1939 Franklin Roosevelt, the President of the United States received a verysignificant letter from the famous physicist, Albert Einstein.2 Contained in this letter were details concerning the importance of nuclear research with regards to gaining the upper hand in the war. Roosevelt agreed and approved $6,000 in initial funding. Many scientists began realizing the importance of nuclear fission and in 1940 The National Defense Research Committee was formed. This group's purpose was to oversee research and provide more funding. Many of the world's best physicists...

...Oscar Wilde once said “Any fool can make history, but takes a genius to write it”, but how does one interpret this quote? This quote means anyone, regardless of their education, can create history as long as one does something significant. However, it does require someone who is well educated to record history. One needs to be well educated in order to avoid bias, and document down all important events as accurate as possible. For example, many Japanese soldiers went down in history as a result of The Rape of Nanking, but Japan does not educate their population about The Rape of Nanking. The majority of the Japanese soldiers were poorly educated compared to today's standards, but they were still able to create history. Japan not educating...

...In those six months I modified my life so much to where I almost forgot the tragedy I was facing. From that situation, I learned homelessness isn't something that anyone should experience, but it teaches life lessons. Throughout this experience I learned to never give up or give in to temptations. I almost gave up towards the end not realizing it was almost over; in school my grades dropped, I grew depressed, and I was convinced that things we're never going to get better. I got myself into all kinds of trouble that I didn't need: quit the track team dropped out of theatre productions and stopped doing my homework Eventually it dawned on me before it was too late, I then realized if I make the same mistakes, then I would be in the same position and it would just be a repetitive I refused to let my minor setback to hurt me majorly in the future. I got back into track and Field and started working hard and...

...Perhaps, some might bemoan the advent of a secular Ireland. Evaluate this statement. The process of ‘secularization’ can be described as the process of organizing society around non-religious values or principles. In otherwards, the state would no longer offer preferential treatment to religion from the equal rule of law. This would rather give the space for individuals of all creeds to grow their beliefs based on their own values and not the values imposed on them by the state. Secularization aims to allow each indivudal to pursue their own beliefs on religion. The value of secularism is best described by Mahatma Gandhi, who said: “If I were a dictator, religion and state would be separate. I swear by my religion. I will die for it. But it is my personal affair. The state has nothing to do with it. The state would look after your secular welfare, health, communications, foreign relations, currency and so on, but not your or my religion. That is everybody’s personal concern!” In recent years, many have questioned whether Ireland has become a secularised society. The findings of recent surveys suggest that the Irish continue to be religious but that they lack confidence in church leadership. Indeed, “Russians have more confidence in their religious leaders than the Irish”. This is said to be mainly due to the “well publicised cases of sexual and physical abuse by clergy and religious”. The lack of confidence in Churhces and religious organisations can be seen in Figure 6 in which...

...always seems to tell the story. In a way where the teller most likely did not finish telling the truth about the story and or lied about their way on the journey. This is where the quote by Anatole France helps you understand the quote.” We have never heard of the devil’s side of the story. God wrote the entire book”. First of all, after looking at the quotation you can clearly say the meaning of the quote is winner’s get to tell the story and losers get to hear the winner’s side of the story. The first example is Iraq going head to head with the U.S. and eventually in the end the U.S. went on and won the war. The after math is the U.S. passed on and articulated their side of the story. This is why we never heard from a person in Iraq, side of the story. In addition the U.S. did not want to tell America, how they dropped food on the ground for the kids in Iraq to eat then the soldiers came and killed all of the kids. The people were afraid America would look at the soldiers in a different way. The army wants us to think that the U.S. soldiers are decent people but actually not. This is why certain countries don’t like the U.S. The recruiters don’t really tell you how messed up the U.S. soldiers are after coming from war. All they want is enough people to fight The final example of this quote is Moses and the Red Sea, as you may know the story from the bible. In the bible you only heard Moses side of the story since he was a follower of God. You will never know the Pharaoh...
