...which is in addition to the projected Super Bond marketing plan for FY79. The target audiences for the plan are small to midsized companies that are non users and companies that are CA users that will benefit from using the BAM. The objectives of the plan will be to increase brand awareness, educate non-current users of the advantages of CA adhesives (Super Bond) as well as the advantages of dispensing equipment, and to increase awareness of the BAM among current users. The plan will utilize direct mail that will be reinforced by future Super Bonder advertising. The BAM should not be considered as a stand alone product but as a complementary product to Super Bond adhesives. The focus of the plan is to use the BAM as a method of introducing new users to instant adhesives and to react to the expressed interest of current CA users in improved dispensing techniques. Brand loyalty will be strengthened once the end user begins to use the BAM in conjunction with Super Bond adhesives. Also, it is recommended to continue the use of the Loctite logo on the BAM to strengthen brand identity. In order to avoid competition with the Systems Division’s line of applicators, the plan will focus on small to midsized companies within SICs 20 through 39 that use less than five (5) pounds of adhesive per year. The assumption is that a company using five (5) pounds or more of adhesive per year are already using or have been introduced to the Systems Division’s applicators. The top 4 industries providing...

I have been asked to give a class to every police officer concerning the two principles and how they pertain to the questions that I will go over. The first principle is no quality is more indispensable to a policeman than a perfect command of temper; a quiet, determined manner has more effect than violent action. The second principle is the securing and training of proper persons is at the root of efficiency. The chief wants me to tell how these principles pertain to these questions. The first set of questions is why is the command of temper important to the demeanor of the typical police officer? What can be achieved with it, and what can happen without it? The next set of questions are has enough been done in law enforcement to develop the proper demeanor of law enforcement officers?

...herself from the rest of her village after her father’s death, the narrator of The Yellow Wallpaper having to spend all her time in the a room she hates because of her disease, or the narrator of Acquainted with the Night strolling through the nightly city all by herself in solitude. All of these stories contain the very popular theme of loneliness and isolation,which are shown using various literary devices of each author’s choosing. Throughout the whole story of A Rose for Emily, the setting seemed to be very eerie and unnatural; the author gave the readers a feeling that made them almost sense the loneliness emanating from the protagonist, Miss Emily:“That was two years after her father’s death and a short time after her sweetheart-the one we believed would marry her-had deserted her. After her father’s death she went out very little; after her sweetheart went away, people hardly saw her at all” (53 Faulkner). This made it known right...

...Protestants. The poem “She was too kind” was written in 1901 after Ms. Eliza Savage’s Death which portrays the feeling of regret and how he ill – treated her. Literary criticism theories such as Marxism, feminism, new historicist and many more, helps the reader to interpret and understand the text. New Historic theory is used to look at the history of the poet and the critic itself to understand the meaning behind the poem. Tragic love is the theme of the poem, and it shows the reader that love was not fulfilled between the two people. One did not accept the love of another. One can consider that “She was too kind” is the greatest poem ever because when one understand the history of the poem between the poet and Eliza, it can be determined that the poet used imagery, repetition and alliteration to convey the tragic love between Miss Savage and the poet himself. New Historicist theory developed by Stephen Greenblatt is another tool that can be used to interpret what the poem is about. The poet’s history and the critic’s history is intertwined as it is about Samuel’s love life. The poet was married to a woman named Ms. Morgan Herbert, who was a widow. When Samuel returned to Britain from his trip to New Zealand, he met Eliza Savage in person. Even when he was in New Zealand, he used to submit the chapters to her for approval. A year or two later,...

... Literary elements refers to aspects or characteristics of a whole text. They are not “used,” per se, by authors; we derive what they are from reading the text. Most literary elements can be derived from any and all texts; for example, every story has a theme, every story has a setting, every story has a conflict, every story is written from a particular point-of-view, etc. In order to be discussed legitimately, literary elements must be specifically identified for that text. Literary techniques refers to any specific, deliberate constructions of language which an author uses to convey meaning. An author’s use of a literary technique usually occurs with a single word or phrase, or a particular group of words or phrases, at one single point in a text. Unlike literary elements, literary techniques are not necessarily present in every text. Literary terms refers to the words themselves with which we identify and describe literary elements and techniques. They are not found in literature and they are not “used” by authors. Allegory: Where every aspect of a story is representative, usually symbolic, of something else, usually a larger abstract concept or important historical/geopolitical event. Lord of the Flies provides a compelling allegory of human nature, illustrating the three sides of the psyche through its sharply-defined main characters. Antagonist: Counterpart to the main character...

...First, you have to know a few things about the Arabian Nights. They are not that Arabian and they were written for a courtly culture in the Abbasid Empire that was heavily Persianate. The Arabian Nights, called simply The Book of 1001 Nights in Arabic, are comprised of various stories taken from an international culture that developed in the Abbasid Caliphate around Baghdad in the 8th-10th century and the stories come from Indian, Persian, Greek, and Arab sources. One of the largest sources was, in fact, a Persian book called Hazar Afsad. It is not necessarily reflective of the broader culture. It reflects the culture of the court which was a mixture of Persian and Hellenistic influences but at a time when the ruling class who produced this...

Fantasy is a genre of fiction that commonly uses magic and other supernatural phenomena as a primary element of plot, theme, or setting. Though formal in definition the fantasy defined above is only the tip of the iceberg because fantasy can be created in one’s mind at a moments notice. Kieran Egan an education professor at Simon Fraser University states that, “fantasy is the most valuable attribute of the human mind; it enriches children’s spiritual development, and is the most important tool for orienting ourselves to reality”(3). This quote pinpoints why fantasy stories have been with us since the start of man and why books like “The Arabian Nights” are so popular thousands of years after there first dictations. Each story read from “Arabian Nights” has different fantasy elements in it, these elements captivate us and bring us inside the stories and are exactly what we connect to, not as a form of “escapism” but to help fuel our own determination to fulfilling our own fantasies.
