...ideas. Motion pictures can illustrate the same points as other art forms, but do so through the use of unique techniques. Mis en scene, or what appears prior to the camera’s presence and arrangement, is one such element exclusive to film that allows for the demonstration of themes and ideals. The Italian neorealist movement of the mid twentieth century exemplifies the power of mis en scene as a manner of promoting ideas within a movie. Neorealist filmmakers used myriad methods, including nonprofessional actors and shooting on location in order to accurately portray the struggles of their country after World War II. Vittorio De Sica’s The Bicycle Thieves offers a gritty portrayal of urban hardship that stands out as a shining example of the period’s meticulous use of mis en scene. The film tells the tragic story of Antonio Ricci, who sells his sheets to afford a bike that he needs for his new job, which he has been searching for tirelessly. A thief, however, steals his bicycle shortly thereafter. Ricci strives valiantly, though to no avail, to regain possession of the bicycle, and at the film’s conclusion resorts to unsuccessfully attempting to steal another man’s. The Bicycle Thieves paints a picture of an urban man’s alienation and economic struggle. De Sica makes this possible largely through his masterful use of mis en scene. He utilizes the mis en scene elements of set, prop usage, and costuming in order to emphasize themes of urban poverty and desperation. Vittorio...

...towards web marketing and learning more about how this integrates in to our business model and gaining potential students. I have equal interest in module 6 due to the information regarding business intelligence, as a manager I rely heavily on data and analytics that help me make decisions regarding our web business. Having access to data and how to better use my data is what I hope to gain from this module. One of my least favorite modules is module 1 Management Information Systems: Business Driven MIS, my low level of interest in this module is due to the fact that I’ve been in business and information technology for many years and I feel I have mastered this section due to my experience. Another module that I have a low level of interest in is module 2 Decisions and Processes: Value Driven Business due to this module dealing with tools that managers use to make decisions. Again with my years of experience and the various tools I’ve used throughout my career and first glance my interest in this is low. With both of these modules I’m hoping to be pleasantly surprised to be exposed to something that I may not have thought about or something I haven’t tried.

Mis-selling at a glance By definition, mis-selling means selling a product by giving a wrong picture of a product, it may include, giving wrong information, giving unrealistic information, not giving full information about the product. You must have heard an insured, saying – but this was not I asked for. And, your agent accusing, but then I did mentioned all the details upfront, didn’t I? Insurance is a business of selling commitments and here is a case where this was broken. Unfortunately the product was mis-sold. Mis-selling is not unique to insurance and happens in various lines of businesses (loans, credit cards, investment products, pharmacy, hospitality etc.), but Insurance being an intangible service – the principle of Caveat emptor prevails in insurance. Often, the intermediary does not fully explain the policy details to the customer. Or the buyer (insured) is in a hurry and doesn't care to check the fine print. There have been cases reported where the agent deliberately misguided the buyer. Discussing an example of mis-selling: A person aged 54, having a handsome amount of savings with him and having no dependents (no kids and wife has passed away a few years ago), has no need of a term insurance (death benefit) but the agent may sell him this policy. A common practice that is seen in this regard is where the agent sells the policy promising...

...Women On Screen In China Film, as a unique art form, has come to China nearly centuries. In 1920s, female images just can be seen as the tools in silent movies, which own not only very vague character, but also lack of adequate connotation of the times, not to mention women’s awareness of self-consciousness. However, after the establishment of People's Republic of China, government vigorously promotes that the "men and women are alike". Also with the influence of western feminist movement, the status of women began to turn upside down. Women are demanding equal status with men, and these demands also reflected in the films. Until now, women as a sign of beauty, some are gentle and virtuous, some are sweetie and pleasant, and some are full of unique personality but still attractive enough. In such a representation, it is hard to notice, even their own aesthetic values are deeply affected by the male views. Not so much a woman as a sign of beauty, as it is a sign to attract male attention. In many generations of Chinese directors, only one of the few is female director. In the Male-dominated film industry, obviously, female characters are created by them, reflecting men’s centralism’s view of women. This paper applies feminist film theory, by analyzing the feminine images in a famous Chinese director—Jiang Wen’s films, to reveal the hidden gender inequality as well as the phenomenon of “male gaze”. Through the criticism and introspection of these hidden and potential...

...given county names, populations, area size, code, and the number of occurrences of seven different types of crime. We used the data provided to divide the counties into high crime and low crime areas in addition to creating a color coded map of the state based on our findings. Metrics Used: 1. Calculation of population per square (sq.) mile a. Individual county population/area(sq. mi) 2. Crime variable analytics a. Calculated each crime on a sq. mile basis for all counties (ex. murder per sq. mile = murder/population per sq. mile). b. Calculated the average of each crime using “crime per sq. mile” data. c. Calculated “total crimes” for all counties based on crimes per sq. mile. d. Sum of all crime averages (13.96) was used as a median to determine high and low crime areas. Results: High crime counties (crime total of 13.96 and above): Kern, Kent, York, Cook, Lake, Knox, Ray, Lane, and Webb. Low crime counties were (crime total 13.95 and below): Lee, Bell, Pike, Ida, Clay, Cass, King, Bay, Kane, Nye, and Jay Justification: At first glance, one would tend to assume that highly populated areas would have higher crime rates than the low populated area; however, this assumption is inaccurate. These types of assumptions lead to misrepresentation of statistical data and do not provide an accurate assessment of Texkansahomatucky’s crime data. In an effort to accurately portray each counties crime data; we used the secondary...

Also, Seung viewed a U.S. citizenship as a ticket to live in a country with his wife and kids that provided him opportunities to succeed that South Korea never offered. With a sense of urgency, he sprinted through the citizenship process. Six months later, he proudly called himself a U.S. citizen. For a while, Seung’s work life continued on without trouble. For months, he spent his days in the auto shop and nights at the supermarket. However his sister had a difficult time paying the bills with just a supermarket. So in order help pay the bills, she opened up a gas station. During the transition, Seung’s sister asked him if he could help out. He felt obligated to help because...

...1. Objective All the technologies are easily available from IT vendors but what distinguishes the companies which leverage these technologies is how management is able to fit the technology into their strategies. This needs an understanding of the roles of managers in the use of MIS. 3. MIS Framework 4.1 Strategic Planning for IT Application Critical Success Factors * Competitor: Steel industry is growing at a rapid face. Tata Steel, JSW, Essar and Jindal Steel and Power are more than doubling their capacity. They are bringing in new technology which makes their product of the best quality. Backward integration in raw material by most of the new plants has has snatched the low cost advantage of SAIL. * Buyer: Customer has become choosy and quality conscious not only in the product but its timely delivery as well. Need to expand to all corners of country with dedicated network. * Substitute: Low quality and low cost steel by china and erstwhile CIS countries have acted as a substitute because of its low price. Aluminium and plastic corrugated sheets acted as a viable substitute to steel. Generic Competitive Strategies Competitive Positioning: SAIL has been market leader in semi finished steel business like Blooms, Billets, slabs, CR and HR coils etc. In the last few years it has focused on value addition and gone ahead with “made to order” products. The share of value added products in the last FY was 36%. It should aim to further...
