...When Reality TV gets too real 1. Text 2, summary In the text “ ” We get information about . We get information about the bad behaviors and assorted crimes that has been going on in different Reality TVs. Some on the big crimes that are being showed in the episodes are alcohol, drunk driving, and under- age drinking, which also includes dangerous working conditions for children. Even though all of this might cause some harms in their afterlife, such a disregard, suicide and disturbance, it does not seems to be that important for the companies. They place more emphasis on the ratings and to catch people’s attention so they can get more viewers. But one of the problematic issues in the text is about the producers’ responsibility of the crimes and if they have the right to require intervention. teksten "Når Reality TV bliver for real". Vi får information om de dårlige adfærd og diverse forbrydelser, som har stået på i forskellige Reality-TV. Nogle på de store forbrydelser, der bliver viste i episoder er alkohol, spirituskørsel, og mindreåriges alkoholmisbrug, som også omfatter farlige arbejdsforhold for børn. Selvom alt dette kan medføre, at nogle skader i deres efterliv, sådan en ligegyldighed, selvmord og forstyrrelser, er det ikke ser ud til at være så vigtigt for virksomhederne. De lægger mere vægt på de ratings og til at fange folks opmærksomhed, så de kan få flere seere. Men en af de problematiske spørgsmål i teksten...

...1. How does the Bordeaux wine distribution system work? Who benefits and how? There are 400 hundred merchants in the Bordeaux, who taste the wine first to get the information about the surface, volume and harvest. Then they provide with the information the largest buyers. So merchants get the primeur cheaper, but then chateau Margaux can ask for higher process on the bottled markets, which the merchants accept, to get the primeur price for the next year. The merchants allocated wine to their buyers. This makes wine available to their customers. This system profits everybody. For wine industry it’s good because they get the payment earlier and they do not have to worry about distribution. As for merchants they are as well paid early. Customers benefit because they get a high quantity. 2. How is price set? Trace the process from the sale of the first tranche to the sale of a bottle in a wine store for $1,200. Why is the process so complicated? The distribution is mostly performed by the en primeur system. It means that Chateau Margaux sell its wine in barrel and no after bottling when the wine is in advance about the major vintage. This way of distribution is used by most of the chateaux and wine producers because they sell only between 5 and 10% of their wine in after bottling. The en primeur system is characterized by different step that Chateaux and merchants respect in order to fix the final price. This system is complicated because of the number of middle...

...questions most frequently asked about doing coursework in Spanish. How much coursework do I have to do? You must submit three pieces of coursework on different topics. You should aim to do at least 4 or 5 different pieces of coursework so you can choose the three best at the end of year 11. When will I be doing my Spanish coursework? You can do your coursework at any point during your GCSE course. Most teachers time a piece of coursework to come at the end of a particular topic which prepares you well for that piece of writing. How long is the coursework? Not very – about 100-150 words per piece on average How much time do I get to spend on each piece? Your teacher will let you know this, but it might vary from one piece to another. Can I ask my teacher to extend the deadline? You shouldn’t need too long a deadline to write just 100 words! It is in your interest to do the coursework while all the relevant vocabulary is fresh in your mind. Also, your teacher might have to get the coursework marked and sorted by a certain date so they might not be able to extend the deadline. What if I do an awful piece of coursework? Do another one! You could ask your teacher if you could do another piece in the same topic area, on in a different topic. Can I use ICT? Yes (if your teacher agrees). There is no point in using a word processor just to ‘type up’ your coursework – this doesn’t get you any extra marks. You must also declare all software used,...

...some point. They had many differences from each other, but they also had some similarities. First of all, Jim and Pap had some similarities rather than the fact that they were both a father figure in Huck’s life. First of all, both of these men would be considered outcasts or rejected. Jim is black and is a slave so obviously he is not very respected and before anybody can even get to know him, they stereotype him. He was also uneducated and gullible. In the book, Jim was very scared because he thought that he lost Huck in the fog on the river and Huck pulled a prank on him saying that there was never any fog and Huck was always by him and it never happened and Jim bought it. Pap on the other hand was considered an outcast because of the lack of education he had, and how he always got drunk. He always beat his son and never had anything going for him. He was also very racist and always complained about how black people should not be able to vote. A bigger similarity is that Huck was not safe with either one when he was with them. Jim would never hurt him, but since he was a runaway slave, Huck would get in a lot of trouble if he got caught with Jim. A quote from Jim about...

...Self-discovery Throughout one’s lifetime changes in a person’s views toward life are inevitable. Those changes can be seen as either positive or negative based on the experiences a person goes through. Some changes are seen as internal while others are seen as external. For instance, in Monkey by Wu Cheng-en and Candide by Francois-Marie Arouet De Voltaire, both authors are using their characters to portray self-discovery by having them go through a series of obstacles. As a result the characters changed their attitude toward life through the many obstacles that they had to undergo. Self-discovery is an essential part of a person’s life which can be seen internally or externally through a person’s characteristics and actions. The novel Candide is centered around the character of Candide who sets out on a journey to self-discovery in which he has “his eyes opened up to the true ways of the world” (www.associatedcontent.com). However, in this novel changes in Candide’s character can only be seen externally. Even though his opinions of the world change, he seems to hold on to the same essence throughout the entire story. At the beginning of the novel we see that Candide is very naïve and we also see that he only believes whatever he hears. Candide believes everything that Pangloss teaches him. Candide’s ignorance is shown when he sits with the Bulgars and says “You are quite right, it is just as Dr. Pangloss always told me, and I see clearly that everything...

...Widow, and Hawkeye. Together these superheroes set out to save the world in a captivating story full of thrilling events. However, what makes these thrilling events come across to the audience so effectively is the excellent use of mise en scène. Throughout this movie, several aspects of mise en scène are used very effectively and are a big part of why this was one of the most succesful movies ever made. One scene that contains an extraordinary use of mise en scène is in the forest when Iron Man and Captain America first meet Thor. The first thing that stood out was the setting. These three extremely powerful forces are meeting for the first time in this very large forest. Right off the bat the setting gives off a sense that almost anything can happen. They are in the wide open wilderness with nothing stopping them from doing what they want to do. If they want to fight, they can do so without harming any nearby people. Another aspect of mise en scène that comes into play in this scene is the lighting. The entire scene is very dark. It is night time in the forest and it gives off a sense that a fight in the near future is inevitable. This in fact does happen. The Taveras 2 fight is mainly between Iron Man and Thor but Captain America does get involved towards the end. It is impossible to say who won the fight because they are all standing at...

...a) Barnes plans to use the ratios in Exhibit 1 as the starting point for discussions with SKI’s operating executives. He wants everyone to think about the pros and cons of changing each type of current asset and how changes would interact to affect profits and EVA. Based on the Exhibit 1 data, does SKI seem to be following a relaxed, moderate, or restricted working capital policy? A través del Current, Quick, Turnover Cash and Securities y el DSO ratio podemos notar que SKI equipment tiene una política relajada ya que el uso de capital de trabajo es un poco menor que las ventas de la empresa. b) How can one distinguish between a relaxed but rational working capital policy and a situation in which a firm simply has a lot of current assets because it is inefficient? Does SKI’s working capital policy seem appropriate? Reducir riesgos, deudas o inventario excedente nos ayuda a saber cuando una política relajada es adecuada y no es una falla en la administración, pero la empresa parece tener buenas rotaciones, pero el capital de trabajo consume las ganancias. c) Assume that SKI’s payables deferral period is 30 days. Now, calculate the firm’s cash conversion cycle.

Viendo el pastor lo que sucedía, cogió al cuervo, y cortando las puntas de sus alas, se lo llevó a sus niños. Le preguntaron sus hijos acerca de que clase de ave era aquella, y les dijo: - Para mí, sólo es un cuervo; pero él, se cree águila. Pon tu esfuerzo y dedicación en lo que realmente estás preparado, no en lo que no te corresponde. 001 - The eagle, the raven and the pastor Jumping off a cliff, an eagle snatched a lamb. He saw a crow and trying to imitate the eagle, was launched on a ram, but bad art knowledge in its claws tangled in the wool, and flapping their wings full loose failed. Pastor Seeing what was happening, grabbed the raven, and cutting the tips of its wings, took it to their children. They asked their children about what kind of bird was that, and said: - For me, it's just a crow, but it is believed eagle. Put your effort and dedication to what you're really ready, not when it is not your place. 002 - El águila y el escarabajo Estaba una liebre siendo perseguida por un águila, y viéndose perdida pidió ayuda a un escarabajo, suplicándole que le salvara.

Desde entonces, buscando vengarse, el escarabajo observaba...

INTRODUCTION Ecuadorian economy has shown a sustained growth in recent years, allowing to the Ecuadorian government to invest in health, education, housing, and some projects for the strengthening of the country. However, it is necessary to control and reduce costs as subsidies. There are subsidies, which are targeted to certain groups of the population according to their characteristics. For example, the Solidarity bonus is a subsidy that is targeted to people in the poorest municipalities in the country and whose income is too low. By the other hand, there are also generalized subsidies, which do not make a proper distinction between groups with different characteristics in the population since they reach all citizens. For example, the electricity subsidy in Ecuador This research shows how people who live in the center of Guayaquil is affected by the reduction of the electricity subsidy since this tool has become in the last seventy years the most used in country due to its versatility, cost, availability, and ease of use.
