...she based off of Anna's memoirs. Twelve years later, Margaret's book would inspire Richard Rogers and Oscar Hammerstein II to co-write the 1956 musical, The King and I. The musical was a thriving success, and in 1971, a television series called Anna and the King aired for one season paying tribute to it. The last great production in remembrance of Anna Leonowens' time in Siam, an animated version of the King and I based off of the musical, was released in March of 1999. The production companies involved in the 1999 version of The King and I included Morgan Creek Productions, Rankin/Bass Productions, Nest Family Entertainment, and Rich Animation Studios. Producing were. Peter Bakalian, Gary Barber, Robert Mandell, Terry L. Noss, Arthur Rankin Jr., James G. Robinson, and Thomas J. Tobin with director Richard Rich. And casted were Martin Vidnovic as the king of Siam, Miranda Richardson as Anna Leonowens, Christiane Noll as Anna's singing voice, Ian Richardson as the Kralahome, Darrell Hammond as Master Little, Allen D. Hong as Prince Chulalongkorn, David Burnham as the prince's singing voice, Armi Arabe as Tuptim, Tracy Venner as Tuptim's singing voice, Adam Wylie as Louis Leonowens, and J.A. Fujili as First Wife. The movie was released on March 19, 1999 and brought in 11.9 million at the box office. However, negative reviews plummeted ticket sales and the film resulted in a 13.1 million dollar loss. Some such reviews of the film included: "This mildly interesting animated feature...

...Overcoming Learners’ Misconceptions of Forces at Key Stage 3 Introduction Children’s ideas of science are developed through science education, but also life experiences. These life experiences will provide learners with an idea of how the world around them works, whether this is right or wrong (Smith, diSessa, & Roschelle, 1994). Children may arrive at Key Stage 3 with deeply imbedded misconceptions of forces and motion that not only affect how they initially think about forces and motion, but also the way in which they learn. One cannot simply teach a new way of thinking without first addressing the underlying misconceptions, and challenging these views. This study focuses on one group of mixed ability year 7 students, studying the forces topic over a course of ten lessons (approximately 11 hours contact time). A review of the literature will cover the kinds of misconceptions that students come with to Key Stage 3, and where these likely originated. It will also consider what research says about how to address misconceptions (both in general terms and specific to the forces topic), and whether or not these techniques are beneficial. Before misconceptions can be challenged, there must first be an understanding of the types of misconceptions held about the topic in general. These can be used to inform pre-topic assessment to distinguish what, if any, misconceptions are held by the students, in order to challenge these views. An action plan will be devised to address...

...administrative reforms are thus essential. This course examines the political-economic dynamics embedded in the reform process from an institutional perspective. It is a master–level course designed for practitioners in the field of public administration and public policy. It discusses strategies for achieving and enhancing reform outcomes. Theories and practices proposed by academics and practitioners will be drawn on as learning resources for the class. Class Format To achieve a high level of synergy and make the most out of our classroom meetings, I expect students to learn from both the instructor and one another in the class. Each of our class will be divided into 2 parts. In the first part, I will begin by giving a general introduction of the assigned readings. Then, a number of students, appointed in advance, will deliver a brief presentation on the assigned readings of the week. Each student will be responsible for presenting one piece of readings. Then, the class will be divided (sometimes randomly) into groups to discuss and share their views and reflections on the readings with their group members. Each group will then share their views with...

To accomplish this task, I needed to develop a new job analysis for the sales team, consider a workforce planning system, identify a selection method, and select the team members by using the job analysis and the selection method.

...Women in Policing History, duties, and leadership roles Melissa Carpenter Genesee Community College Author Note This paper was prepared for Administration in Criminal Justice 205, Section 99, taught by Professor Bushen Abstract: The journey of women in policing and police leadership has been long and strewn with obstacles and issues. The aim of this paper is to examine and discuss women in the policing. This paper will attempt to discuss the struggles and problems women face when taking a leadership role. This paper will give a brief history of the roles women played when first being introduced into the criminal justice system along with the roles they obtain now. When thinking of people in the criminal justice field especially that of police officers, chief of police, prosecutor, etc. many people often picture men in those positions. For many decades the criminal justice system was a male-dominated field and although men still hold a majority of these positions, more women are stepping up and taking initiative to lead in these areas. “In most cultures across the globe, males hold more power and privilege—both publicly and privately—than females. Men control more of the wealth, hold the highest position in government and industry, control the military, make more scientific and scholarly discoveries, and are more prominent in sports and entertainment than women” (Goodstein). This paper will discuss the roles of women in the criminal justice system...

...Standardization of Nursing Protocol for Cardiac Arterial Bypass Patients Abstract Evidence-Based Practice (EBP) is an important factor in determining medical courses of action. Nurses have long used tradition rather than evidence in making decisions about beside care; to convince them to switch practice, it is useful to draw a comparison between the efficacy of these disparate routes. Our study designed a research question based on the PICOT model for the cardiac floors and designed procedures using the Kotter and Cohen’s Model of Change. In order to study the effect discussed in our PICOT question, a web search was conducted and the quality of each pertinent study reviewed. Introduction In the nursing staff of an adult Cardiac Surgical Care unit, how does the buy-in from the staff for Evidence-Based Practice (EBP) changes in a new Coronary Arterial Bypass Graft (CABG) pathway affect the decreases in infection rate among this patient population when compared to the old way of delivering patient care through nursing tradition in a six month time frame? The formation of a guideline for practice in nursing is not a new occurrence; books and manuals have been a reality for many years. However, in the past these resources lacked the evidence for standards of care, which traditionally have been based on professional consensus and tradition. The Joint Commission has recognized processes that can be measured regarding patient outcomes and care in order to meet standards for Medicare...

...The Independent Record Labels of the 1950’s and 1960’s History of Music Production Eric Eller Throughout the 1950’s and 1960’s, a wave of new musical movements by independent record labels and new artists emerged in the United States. This movement is captured in the stories of those label creators and owners, and in the turbulent journey through their successes and failures. The first emergence was fueled by multiple factors: competitive economic circumstances, up-and-coming local musical talent in conjunction with the independent labels and studio owners, and the commercially viable musical interest and curiosity of consumers in these local artists. An article poses another causative factor that makes sense: when rock and roll was a new genre, major labels such as Columbia, Capitol, and RCA were “reluctant to sign these acts; thus, sprung forth the independent label” (Jacobs). Grassroots production and engineering enthusiasts were given an in-road into the music industry and were able to gain their own clients in independent local artists. Independent label owners in connection with this local talent generate publicity and profit. One such example is found with the duo of Polish immigrant brothers named Leonard and Phil Chess, also known as the Blues Brothers. The Chess brothers bought sole ownership of Aristocrat Records in 1950, and change its name to Chess Records. Leonard specialized as the hands-on producer for the label, while Phil focused...

...Understanding Machiavellianism and Narcissism Roshan Priyadarshi (B14103) Vishwajeet Goel (B14121) Madhur Maheshwari Tanveer Ali (B14118) Ankur Gupta Section B Abstract This paper tries to explore the concept of Narcissism and Machiavellianism and the effect of these on a person’s personality as a whole. Narcissism, personality trait of egoism, conceit, or simple selfishness and Machiavellianism, employment of cunning and duplicity in statecraft or in general conduct, if in excess seem to have a negative effect on a person’s behaviour. The characteristics of the person indulging in these traits are analysed through this research and also the effects of their presence in excess to . Machiavellianism and narcissism can be called to be some of the most important and governing constituents of one’s personality and thus governs the behaviour of people at their workplace or in their decision making to a great extent. Consequences of very high or very low Machiavellianism and narcissism can be grave and therefore effects of both these conditions are evaluated. Also methodologies to determine the level of Narcissism and Machiavellianism in an individual are discussed through this paper. Hopefully this research will provide insights to the positive and negative effects of Narcissism and Machiavellianism and assist the reader in avoiding or minimising the negative effects of these. Narcissism The term was coined by Freud after Narcissus who in Greek myth was a pathologically...

First of all, I used the personality traits to describe the personalities of Travis Hay (He is as a prisoner, NO.77), Michael Barris (He is as a guard.) and Mr. Nix (He is as a prisoner, NO.17). Such as, the Big Five, etc. Secondly, I will be explaining the unique situation influenced the behaviour of the Travis Hay, Michael Barris and Mr. Nix. Personality are influenced by many factors, this is I will speak content Body The early work in the structure of personality revolved around attempts to identify and label enduring characteristics that describe an individual’s behavior. Popular characteristics include shy, aggressive, submissive, lazy, ambitious, loyal and timid. Those characteristics, when they are exhibited in a large number of situations, are called personality traits.[1] In recent year, an impressive body of research supports the theory that five basic dimensions underlie all others and encompass most of the significant variation in human personality.[2] Extraversion is that a personality dimension describing someone who is sociable, gregarious and assertive. In the beginning of the film, Travis actively met girl. After that, he made friend with Michael Barris and always say “Flying man” Tinker Bell. He and his boss was talking in the office. His boss said:”you’ve been talking about...

...African American Women Under Slavery This paper discusses the experiences of African American Women under slavery during the Slave Trade, their exploitation, the secrecy, the variety of tasks and positions of slave women, slave and ex-slave narratives, and significant contributions to history. Also, this paper presents the hardships African American women faced and the challenges they overcame to become equal with men in today’s society. Slavery was a destructive experience for African Americans especially women. Black women suffered doubly during the slave era. Slave Trade For most women who endured it, the experience of the Slave Trade was one of being outnumbered by men. Roughly one African woman was carried across the Atlantic for every two men. The captains of slave ships were usually instructed to buy as high a proportion of men as they could, because men could be sold for more in the Americas. Women thus arrived in the American colonies as a minority. For some reason, women did not stay a minority. Slave records found that most plantations, even during the period of the slave trade, there were relatively equal numbers of men and women. Slaveholders showed little interest in women as mothers. Their willingness to pay more for men than women, despite the fact than children born to enslaved women would also be the slaveowners’ property and would thus increase their wealth. Women who did have children, therefore, always struggled with the impossible conflict...
