...Many of us have attics and basements filled with keepsakes of our family. We look at old photo albums and yearbooks and think we should try to organize all our family pictures and documents and put them in one place. The older we become the more important our past and our family history becomes. We want to remember and treasure the knowledge we have and to learn more about our family. As you sit amongst the rubble of your family memorabilia you start to ask yourself, "how can I possible put all this in some kind of order"? What you need to do is begin a family tree You will need charts and templates to help you know how to begin. They are easy to obtain from various websites. You may not realize it yet, but you have chosen to take on the...

...In 1993, One Dollar Inc. officially changed its name to Dollar Tree. Dollar Tree is a leading discount variety store in the United States. Their inventory is priced at one dollar including food, toys, housewares, cleaning supplies, beauty aids, paper products and many other odds and ends. Dollar Tree is able to offer its customers a wide variety of products for just one dollar because of its purchasing power. The company buys products in huge quantities. Dollar Tree imports roughly 40 percent of its stock, purchases manufacturers’ overage and maintains a strong focus on controlling costs. However, Dollar Tree recently announced an $8.5 billion acquisition. The figure rose to $10 billion due to stock prices soaring. Dollar Tree agreed to divest 330 Family Dollar stores to private-equity firm Sycamore Partners. The combined organization will operate more than 13,000 stores in 48 states forecasting sales exceeding $19 billion annually. Dollar Tree anticipates the deal will result in an estimated $300 million of annual run-rate by the end of the mergers third year. Again, the merger levels the playing field for competition with a large retail store, Walmart. The dollar concept is once again gaining popularity in the U.S. due to changing shopping patterns. Dollar stores’ convenient locations give them a competitive edge over traditional Wal-Mart stores, which are usually located on the outskirts of cities. The retail giant has also ramped up its own small store expansion...

...accident. The image by Image Zoo also shows four different pathways leading into the one tree with branches that lead up into the sky. This picture shows the tree of life and how people can take different paths to experiences. I Measure Every Greif I Meet is a poem by Emily Dickinson that shows the strength a person needs to overcome grief in their lives. The strength comes within the individual and their surroundings. All three of these texts show that moving into the world involves different pathways to new experiences shown through different circumstances, problems and views. The image by Image Zoo reflects the idea that moving into the world involves different pathways. This image uses the rule of thirds and symbolism to bring attention to the four different pathways to the centre tree trunk. The rule of thirds draws central focus to the light coming from the tree. This light symbolises the light that is present through different pathways and journeys. Light symbolises the hope, possibilities that come with moving into the world. Even though each pathway comes to the same centre of light, it branches upwards into different pathways shown at the top of the tree trunk. The tree symbolises the “Tree of life” as the tree that brings possibility to the world, it gives life and experiences to everyone. This brings to the main point that moving into the world, shown metaphorically as the tree through the four different pathways to new experiences. Furthermore the position of characters...

...vast island, a dark curvy passage lead down to a large forest full of plants. Lining the bark of numerous trees was moss as soft as feathers, and weeds springing out from cracks in the ground. Behind the cluster of bushes, which looked like they haven't been trimmed in years, there was an oak tree. Towering over anyone passing, the tree seemed as if it were thousands of feet tall. Its roots dug deep into the soil, reaching for every last drop of water. No one knew what magic lived inside this tree. And no one ever found out. Pilanu, the former goddess of Nature always enjoyed that story from the very moment her grandmother told her. She visioned it in her mind, and how she would use her goddess capabilities...

...chapter. Kimmerer talked about how the scientific community remains baffled at how pecan trees appear to talk with one another. Pecan trees act as a collective unit and produce mast fruiting all at once. It is not just a few groves that yield a harvest, it is groves all over the state in an all or nothing display. While there a several theories that attempt to explain this phenomenon, researchers are unaware of what causes the mast fruiting. This passage stood out to me in particular since Kimmerer compared pecan trees to a family that looks out for one another. The trees communicate to one another to decide when the time was right to produce the pecans. If one tree fruits alone out of season, it will be easy for it to become picked off by hungry animals and the chances of the tree surviving become slim. The pecan...

...caving. Luckily for us, the former caving grounds have been deemed safe for the public and re-opened in recent years (City of Negaunee). This is quite obviously appealing to the history buffs, but more importantly to those that believe that nature has a mysterious and whimsical voice. Thankfully, we have many people here that get a buzz from the way the world speaks. While walking in to my naturalistic solace and playground, I tried to look at it with a new eye. Instead of just finding peace in the journey of falling leaves and comfort in the swaying branches, I attempted to observe in detail. The very first thing I noticed as I walked past a long staircase to nowhere, was that a small squirrel was perched on the lowest branch of the tree nearest me. I slowly knelt down in order to get a closer look while trying not to stir him; taking in the amber tone of his bushy fur, and the high gloss that finished each of his eyes. I could see a drop of dew that sprouted from his nose and I wondered briefly how it had gotten there. He then brought the tiny nut he was holding to his jittery mouth; constantly looking...

...Consider the redwood tree for a long moment. The tree that holds an ancient background. Dating back to same time as the dinosaurs. The humongous coniferous tree lined with reddish brown bark that is defiant to pests, rot, and fire. Its breathtaking beauty defines the concept of time. All of which started from a seedling no bigger than the size of your pinky fingernail. Growing an impressive 2-5 feet per year and their large canopy of leaves towering over you, making you feel the size of an ant. The redwood tree typically lives to be thousands of years old. If it was possible to guarantee a human at least 100 years on earth, you would have to spend 10 to 20 lifetimes on earth in order to compare to just one lifetime of the redwood tree. Imagining...

...1. What are the strengths and weaknesses of Guajilote? Guajilote uses three operations using very simple technologies, which means they only need limited capital to maintain the equipment. They have committed and determined members and employees. Santos Munguia has been the leader since 1995 and was able to renegotiate a better price for the sale of the cooperative’s wood. Due to the law of supply and demand, the price for the mahogany will increase when the world supply decreases. They are an environmentally friendly cooperative that only harvests fallen mahogany trees. The lives of the members of Guajilote improved significantly for them and their family members. Although the staff is committed and determined, they have no education or training and Munguia has no educated leadership. They have limited distribution channels and their current distributor may not be paying them enough right now. Also, they don’t have enough capital and even a lack of access to credit to buy their own truck for transportation. They only have one product which means they are completely reliant on that. They have a low technology process. 2. What are the opportunities and threats facing Guajilote? If they are able to buy their own transportation, they can could cut the distributor and double their revenues by hauling their wood to Honduras’ major market centers. They can use specialty shops and catalogs throughout the world that might be interested in selling high quality mahogany furniture...
