...approved May Architecture and Design’s proposal to design a garage for your household.

I completed the floor plan of your garage and am prepared to present the design and my recommendations to you and your roommates. Attached is my report on the garage design for your household. Covered in the report are the garage design, an analysis of the design including a cost analysis, and recommendations. If you have any questions, please contact me at 810.759.4469. Sincerely, Amy May CEO and Chief Architect May Architecture and Design Enclosures May Architecture and Design May Architecture and Design Page ii May Architecture and Design Page iii May Architecture and Design ABSTRACT Upon approval of the design proposal, an architect designed a garage for a household in Oak Park, Michigan. The architect worked on this project over the courses of seven weeks. She interviewed the three clients to determine what features they needed in a garage and researched the zoning information for the city of Oak Park to determine the maximum possible garage size. The architect compiled the clients’ information and zoning information to determine the actual garage size, designed the floor plan, and completed the report. The recommended design is a 13’ high, 24’ X 24’ garage, which is a modification of the design found at http://www...

...assignments are due by Sunday, midnight, MST. CH3, Q7 – The owner of a small hardware store—the only one in a medium-sized town in the mountains—has just learned that a large home improvement chain plans to open a new store nearby. How difficult will it be for the owner to plan for this competitive threat? Explain your answer. At first it would be very difficult. The small hardware store owner should choose strategies that avoid head-on competition. The owner needs to find new or better ways to satisfy customers needs and provide value. The small owner should actively seek information about the large home improvement chain and what all they entail? A lot of the information can come from customers and from the internet, remember word of mouth is huge. It is just like having McDonalds next to Burger King, each will have their own regular customers coming in, but each will have to keep bringing something new to the table, to try and get more customers in. CH4, Q3 – List the types of potential segmenting dimensions, and explain which you try to apply first, second, and third in a particular situation. If the nature of the situation would affect your answer, explain how. 1) Behavioral needs, attitudes, and how present and potential goods and services fit into customers consumption patterns. 2) Urgency to get the need satisfied, with the desire and willingness to seek information, compare, and shop. 3) Geographic location and other demographic characteristics...

...Raising her hand, she said, “Sure, he was about six feet tall, two hundred pounds, wearing a denim jacket with a hole near the pocket. He was wearing a ski cap, pulled down over his face. I couldn’t see the color of his skin.” +++ Within the hour, Detective Wallace and Detective Johnson arrived along with the CSI team. “What do we have?” Detective Wallace asked. Following Officer Jackson up the driveway, he led the way behind the garage. After checking the victim, Detective Wallace collected the information from the officers before talking to the neighbors. Setting up their equipment, the CSI team collected additional evidence, took photographs, checked fingerprints. “Mrs. Davis, what can you tell us about Mrs. Lincoln?” Detective Wallace...

...Week 8 : Final Exam - Final Exam 1. (TCO 1) Your company owns a piece of land and is in the middle of purchasing this property to expand their footprint in the community. At the last minute, the seller has backed out of the deal, leaving you with few options. Your supervisor wants to explore the options for remedies in this case. What remedies would be available given the type of transaction and outcome at stake? Would legal damages make the company whole? What equitable remedies may be available? Explain your answer highlighting the difference between remedies at law and remedies at equity? (Points : 20) Equitable remedies are rarely used for contact breaches. They may be used if there is no other way to compensate an Innocent party and also in the sale of unique objects and in the sale of land. In Equity there is only one remedy the “specific performance” where you make the person perform the contact. Remedies at law are ways to right a wrong that are specified in the laws, such as making you pay a person back, or posting a bond against future performance or seizing (repossessing) property. The key is that they are standard and defined in the laws and usually are monetary. Some courts are allowed to apply the principles of equity instead of or in addition to those of law. Equity courts emerged to cover situations where there was no law or the law didn't provide proper remedies. Equity courts don't set precedents. Remedies in equity are more often injunctions or orders...

Then wear the gold hat, if that will move her; If you can bounce high, bounce for her too, Till she cry ‘Lover, gold-hatted, high-bouncing lover, I must have you!’ —THOMAS PARKE D’INVILLIERS The Great Gatsby Chapter 1 I n my younger and more vulnerable years my father gave me some advice that I’ve been turning over in my mind ever since. ‘Whenever you feel like criticizing any one,’ he told me, ‘just remember that all the people in this world haven’t had the advantages that you’ve had.’ He didn’t say any more but we’ve always been unusually communicative in a reserved way, and I understood that he meant a great deal more than that. In consequence I’m inclined to reserve all judgments, a habit that has opened up many curious natures to me and also made me the victim of not a few veteran bores.

...connected to a credit card and all of my personal demographics. The time stamp I left while streaming online radio will most likely be saved on a massive server, available for recall for years on end. As disturbing as this seems, this is only the beginning, as my day to day job requires constant surveillance, both by proximity card, audio and video surveillance. Most people can tell you that if you desire privacy at your workplace, do not pursuit a career in corrections. In one eight hour day, my proximity card, which links to my personnel record, is recorded over fifty times a day. In order to enter or exit any door or hallway, one must swipe their proximity card, which logs the activity into a massive database that is backed up into a cloud server on an hourly basis. If you really wanted to know, you could find out exactly how many times I went to the bathroom today and for how long during each trip. To add insult to injury, upon leaving work and arriving on campus for my night class, I was required to swipe my credit card in order to park my car in the parking garage. This data does not even include the so called “passive data” that is...

...JFT2 Task 1 A1 The two motivational theories the board members Bill Bailey and Scott Parker should employ to motivate and support or oppose the merger between the Utah Symphony and the Utah Opera are McClelland’s Need Theory and Adam’s Equity Theory. Bill Bailey the highest ranking officer as chairman of the Utah Opera board is tasked with conducting business in an orderly fashion. As chairman, it is Bill’s job to lead the other board members from varying points of view or decisions to making decisions that are in the best interests of the organization he presides over. Finally, it is Bill’s job to set the overall direction and strategy of the organization. For Bill, McClelland’s Need Theory is most appropriate considering his position on the proposed merger. This theory comprises of three needs; the need for achievement, the need for affiliation and the need for power. The need for achievement is to accomplish something difficult (Kreitner & Kinicki, 2010). Bill has two primary concerns regarding the merger. One is the financial strength of the opera versus the symphony. The opera had established a reserve fund and as a result was more financially stable and had a more flexible business model. Second, is that the opera could potentially become a tier one arts organization as a result of the merger but in doing so could also potentially lose its identity. Bill could look at these two challenges as something worth accomplishing. Historically, there haven’t been a lot...

I mean of course you plan out some your immense ideas and dreams. Since we are so young and very much naive we never visualize the trials and sacrifices to come. If you told me when I was twelve and sneaking around my father’s cramped East Chicago apartment looking at his many exotic movies. I would have several experiences with early pregnancy before I was nineteen I could not have believed you. That my freshman year of high school I would have unprotected sex with my stepfather’s granddaughter upstairs in my sister’s room on the floor. And lure her into this act a bundle of times before my sophomore year in high school. One night as I wait till everyone falls asleep as usual whenever she comes over. To finally get her alone in my sister’s room on their floor. I reach my goal as expected she never made it hard for me, and in some way I want to thank her. Creeping hoping not to make too much noise, my parents would do what only God knows. Stopping for any sounds because the fear a” Thud” of footsteps coming up stairs brings would have practically sent me into shock. I remember how she moaned so slight just enough to let me know that she enjoyed the love I gave. And I returned the favor by continuing to give. It got to the point where it felt as if I was about to...

...Planning – Questions To Answer Before You Begini 1. Do you have clear goals for staging a special event? Is the purpose to raise money? Assuming one of your purposes is to raise funds, it is important to determine when the funds are needed and what your financial net goal is. The strategy to raise significant dollars will be considerably different than one to generate a few hundred dollars. As a basic rule of thumb, match the event to your financial needs and timeline. Is the purpose to generate new donor prospects or volunteers? In most successful fundraising events, one of the goals is to attract new volunteers and money to support the organization. Otherwise you may be redirecting money previously given to the organization through other avenues and overtaxing current volunteers. Is the purpose to increase public awareness of your organization? If you want to increase the visibility of the organization, the event should be held where many people are exposed to the name and mission of your organization and great efforts should be aimed at good media coverage. Is the purpose to bring attention to your cause or mission? Too often the population served by the organization is confused with the audience for an event. Although the two should be compatible with regards to the basic values of the organization, the audience of your event may be significantly different than the clients you serve. David Nelson, author of Getting the Payoff from Special Events, distinguishes between two...

... III- St. Lucy of Light I. INTRODUCTION A. The Choice B. Nicholas Sparks *Nicholas Sparks was born on December 31, 1965, in Omaha, Nebraska, to Patrick Michael Sparks, a professor, and Jill Emma Marie (née Thoene) Sparks, a homemaker and an optometrist's assistant. He was the middle of three children, with an older brother Michael Earl "Micah" Sparks (1964) and a younger sister, Danielle "Dana" Sparks (1966–2000), who died at the age of 33. Sparks has said that she is the inspiration for the main character in his novel A Walk to Remember. Sparks was raised Roman Catholic and is of German, Czech, English and Irish ancestry. He and his wife are devout Catholics and are raising their children in the Catholic faith. His father was pursuing graduate studies, and the family moved a great deal, so by the time Sparks was 8, he had lived in Watertown, Minnesota, Los Angeles, and Grand Island, Nebraska. In 1974 his family settled in Fair Oaks, California, and remained there through Nicholas's high school days. He graduated in 1984 as valedictorian from Bella Vista High School, then enrolling at the University of Notre Dame, having received a full track and field scholarship. In his freshman year, his team set a...

...Weekend by Christopher Pike ONE The road was painful. Last summer's hurricanes had dug strategically placed potholes across the narrow asphalt highway. Every time their dusty Datsun hatchback hit one — every sixty seconds — Shani Tucker's head kissed the car's ceiling. She wanted an aspirin, but they upset her stomach, and it was already worse off than her head. Long drives were not her forte. She wished that there was room in the front seat with Kerry and Angie, where at least she could have tied herself down with a seat belt. But Angie was driving, and Kerry's hand was glued to the radio, searching vainly through static bands. Though the road was doing its best to slow them down, they were, nevertheless, too far south into Mexico to catch San Diego's stations. Glancing out of the window at the brittle tumbleweed, the baked orange hills, and dry, cracked ravines, Shani felt as if she had crossed into another world, rather than merely into another country. "Can't get anything on this damn thing," Kerry Ladd said, fretting as usual. "Turn it off," Shani said. "I have a headache as it is." "I've got to have music," Kerry said, snapping in a cassette. Pat Benatar started wailing about precious time. Kerry wasn't the most considerate of friends. But Shani didn't complain. The grinding guitar was the lesser of two evils. Constant external distraction was necessary to keep strung-out Kerry from exploding. "I've got to turn off the air conditioning, again," Angie Houston warned...
