...The mind is a very complex thing to try and comprehend; you also never really know what it is capable of either. Many people usually act one certain way with their id controlling them for the most part, or the superego. In Regarding Henry, Henry Turner was a well-known lawyer in New York City that has a reputation for always winning his cases no matter the people who got hurt in the process. Turner, for the majority of his life, the id controlled his life, until a very unfortunate event occurred where he lost his memory. People can argue either way in which what his natural state was, but I believe that he defiantly is a mixture of both. The id of the brain is a more impulsive, pleasurable side of the personality. Many say that it...

...Sigmund Freud, a universally recognized psychologist of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, introduces the rather odd, yet intriguing concept that each person withholds an Id, Ego, and Superego; the primal desires, rational thinking, and morals that make each mind unique. In the movie Regarding Henry, the cutthroat lawyer Henry Turner is unfortunately shot and supposedly wiped clean of memory, exposing Freud’s concept in his actions both before and after the incident. Based upon the numerous occasions that Henry chooses to do what is right rather than to do what he wants suggests that his natural state is that of his Superego rather than his Id. Turner’s Id can be identified in his basic needs and desires, such as hunger and sexual desires. All humans to some degree show signs of their Ids in daily life, such as Bradley, the physical therapist that helped return Henry’s physical condition back to normal. He says time after time in reference to his young female co workers, “I’ve gotta get me some of that”, simply exposing his Ids sexual desires. Henry displays his Id in a more child-like way as a symptom of his brain injuries, continuing to flick crumpled pieces of paper at his daughter while she was trying to read. Her attempts to control him by saying, “Dad, stop”, over and over again was to no avail....

In the current scenario with a lack of fundamental information it’s clear from the analysis that work for address the issues in Mega Fitness would be a better option instead to jump in a very risk and uncertain situation (the role of “Junior”, the owner of the competitors company is fundamental and could be disruptive for Henry and his job/career).

...Report on the case “Henry Tam and the MGI team” In partial fulfilment of WAC course Submitted by: Nishant Prateek Minz Executive Summary Henry Tam, an MBA candidate at Harvard Business School, is facing the problem of bringing together his team on common grounds regarding MGI’s submission for the annual HBS business plan competition which could provide him with good credentials and the company with the jumpstart it needs. The members of the team had approached Henry with their business plan and wanted to enter into the contest which could provide them with venture capitalist funding and expert advice for its future. The assembled team has a lot of disagreements and no clear hierarchical structure which has often resulted in clashes between individual ideas and no definite plan for presentation. With the deadline looming near, Henry was faced with the challenge of putting together a coherent business plan in time. It is recommended that the team mutually appoint a neutral third person experienced in business plan development to take the final decision regarding the B-plan formulation.

...Henri Tam and the MGI Team : Written Case Analysis Henry Tam faced a difficult challenge as he began his business plan project with Music Games International (MGI). The root of the problem is that the company culture is not adaptive. This means that the team members do not come together and support change to enhance their productivity. In this instance, it causes the team not to be as effective as they otherwise would. During the course of the project, Henry encountered several difficulties. The group lacks an effective leader. He has to step in to establish better management of agreements and build unity and encourage collaboration through supporting, empathizing, and harmonizing. Finally, their group lacks greatly in having clear stages of development. He needs a clear understanding of the stages of group development. In order to advance the group, I recommend that they make changes in their strategy to form the cohesion in their group. First, they need to overlook personality conflicts to facilitate agreement. A group of highly talented people does not mean guaranteed success. They must delegate tasks and be consistent in their decisions. Another recommendation is to establish a clear team leader to develop credibility. This will allow the group to develop focus and influence, and motivate them to greater effort. Third, I recommend they set clear expectations and boundaries. Doing so will increase efficiency and clarify roles and agendas. Finally, they need to establish...

...There is substantial evidence that by 1926, with the publication of The Weary Blues萎靡的蓝调, Langston Hughes had broken with打破 two well-established确立已久的 traditions in African American literature. In The Weary Blues, Hughes chose to modify the traditions that decreed规定 that African American literature must promote racial acceptance and integration融合, and that, in order to do so, it must reflect an understanding and mastery 掌握of Western European literary techniques and styles. Necessarily excluded 排除by this decree规定, linguistically and thematically, was the vast amount of secular 长期的folk material in the oral tradition that had been created by Black people in the years of slavery and after. It might be pointed out that even the spirituals 圣歌or “sorrow悲痛的 songs” of the slaves—as distinct from their secular songs and stories—had been Europeanized to make them acceptable within these African American traditions after the Civil War. In 1862 northern White writers had commented favorably on the unique and provocative激励人心的 melodies of these “sorrow songs” when they first heard them sung by slaves in the Carolina sea islands. But by 1916, ten years before the publication of The Weary Blues, Hurry T. Burleigh, the Black baritone男中音 soloist独唱歌手 at New York’s ultrafashionable非常流行的 Saint George’s Episcopal 主教的Church圣公会, had published Jubilee大赦年 Songs of the United States, with every spiritual圣歌 arranged 编排so that a concert singer could sing it “in the manner 方式of an art song.” Clearly, the artistic...

...Florida Air, Inc. 1. Evaluate Florida Air’s search for capital. What, if any, key mistakes were made? -Dan failed to fully utilize high profile networks of Scott and Henry, who were both graduates of an Ivy League School (Did Scott graduate from Ivy League School?). Also, Dan did not try to reach out to his network he established while he was buying and selling airplanes. Even if there was no one interested in their direct network, perhaps someone in their network knew someone who might be interested. Scott later contacted his 100 alumni later but rather passively; instead of calling to actively initiate a conversation, he mailed out information. -Also, the team initially decided that the best group to approach for capital would be the ones with airline experience to appreciate the benefits of their idea. However, we think the investors do not necessarily needed to have that airline experience, as long as they saw potential and some benefits of the venture. By selecting that "best pool" we believe the team limited themselves to a small group of potential investors. -The team did not do enough research and did not come up with a well-structured business plan. When potential investor candidate Jason Daulton had asked seemingly basic questions about how Flordia air will handle maintenance costs, scheduling, fuel efficiency economics, underlying rationale...

...Health Care Marketing Analysis Shanita V. Brown HCS/539 May 27, 2013 Thomas Sloan Health Care Marketing Analysis “The health marketing mix is vital for a successful health promotion campaign (Pralea pg. 43).” In the health care system today, the marketing mix generally is based on the four P’s known as product, price, place and promotion. The product is concrete and solid products and services. The product is the actual physical item. Pricing is based on being able to price the products at a rate in which customers are willing to pay. This means being aware of supply and demand. Place which also means distribution. Placement is how the products are delivered to the customers. Promotion is the communication in which the hospital uses to bring a positive response from customers. The four P’s are vital in marketing of health care. The four P’s are what guarantees the hospital’s overall success. This can be proven by looking at the marketing mix of Piedmont Henry Hospital in McDonough, Georgia. Product As stated above, the product is the physical products and services in which the hospital provides. Products and services are important to hospital because should cater to the target customers. The product is considered the “platform” of the marketing plan, according to Pralea. Decisions about products and services in a health care facility may involve brand name, functionality, quality, safety, packaging, and repairs and support.

Gary Larsen, who was chosen as project manager was faced with many hurdles and his inexperience as the project manager definitely had negative implications on the triple constraints of the project: scope, time and cost. In this paper, I will address the problems Gary Allison faced: contractual, legal, ethical, technical and project management. Henry Larsen chose Gary Allison to be project manager, knowing full well he did not have the knowledge, nor the know-how to be a project manager, especially of such a big project. I will address Henry Larsen’s unethical behavior and poor leadership skills as well. Henry Larsen tried to put all the blame on his project manager, but he as a sponsor was practically absent and let the project get totally out of control. My recommendation would be to have a project manager with experience and proper leadership skills who...

...Symbolic racism is the prejudicial behavior that embodies negative attitudes and behaviors towards people of color (Henry & Sears, 2002); its intention is to be subtler and more politically correct. It includes the belief that individuals of color no longer experience the disadvantages that they once did and therefore should have no obstacles or disadvantages to achieve better outcomes, that individuals of color are unable to help themselves (Virtanen & Huddy, 1998). Previously, to understand the racial attitude of Symbolic Racism, , measures were developed to quantify and determine the score. McConahay (1986) developed a measure of modern racism, The Modern Racism Scale (MRS). This originally was applicable to African Americans within the United States, and the prejudicial feelings felt by the white American. The MRS has been widely accepted, as there is no single unisons measure; broad faculties of psychology have used this measure as it is applicable to laboratory and correlational research (Henry & Sears, 2002). It suggested by Henry & Sears that the construct was multidimensional rather than one-dimensional, therefore suggesting that the construct was composed of four factors, ‘1) Work Ethic and Responsibility of outcomes, 2) Excessive Demands 3) Denial of Continuing Discrimination and 4) Undeserved Advantage...

...Introduction Dairy production accounts for 18% of Community agricultural output of the European Union and is the pillar of all agricultural activities. European Union is the world’s primary exporter of dairy products, even with a reduction in its market share (Zervoudaki 2011). The EU dairy market is regulated by the Common Market Organization (CMO) for its milk products, one of which is the milk quota system. The milk quota system was introduced to the EU in 1984 and the idea was embraced because it offered a way to control milk production, stabilize milk price and farm income (Seville 2009; Petit 1987). As the markets become more free-flowing and globalized, disputes about the system arose. Since the implementation of the system, the negative aspects of it have reared its ugly heads. It not only put a cap on milk production,but also lost the competitive edge in the world market due to the stabilization of milk prices (Seville 2009). Therefore, the reforms made on June 26th 2003 in Luxembourg have proposed major changes to the European Common Agricultural Policy (CAP). Direct subsidies were to be independent from production and strict compliance with EU standards on environment and health was enforced. In reality, milk producers take market demand into consideration rather than the influence from subsidies to determine their production quota. (Bouamra-Mechemache and Requillart 2004). However, EU dairy market is still regulated by the mandatory quota system because the agreement...

...Pilgrimage of Grace Document Analysis Desiring marriage to his mistress Anne Boleyn, and a subsequent male heir to the throne, King Henry VIII of England stood before the pope with a plea. He wanted to divorce his then wife Catherine of Aragon, who he had come to despise for failing to produce a male heir, and instead marry Anne. However, this request was met with adamant refusal by the pope, who deemed the divorce unholy as it was against the Catholic faith. Upon hearing that his request was denied, Henry became livid and, in with the Act of Supremacy, ordained himself the head of the Anglican Church. He then proceeded to divorce Catherine and take Anne as his new bride. But Henry’s actions against the Catholic Church did not stop there. Enlisting the aid of Thomas Cromwell, he proceeded to implement high taxes, expand royal power, dissolve monasteries, and confiscate Catholic Church lands. Many English citizens took offence to these measures, and as a response embarked on the Pilgrimage of Grace. Although the protestors claimed that the march was solely to preserve English Catholicism, there were many different reasons for it. Some aimed to return God’s supremacy in England, others wanted protection from marauding thieves and Scots, and many wanted better treatment for the poor. The King and his fellow Protestants, on the other hand, saw the march as a rebellion, and set out to crush it. They argued that this opposition to the king’s power would bring chaos and anarchy to all...

Institutional Group on Addiction Research, Institute of Psychology, Eötvös Loránd University, Budapest, Hungary Department of Cognitive Sciences, Budapest University of Technology and Economics, Budapest, Hungary 3 Institute for Health Promotion and Sport Sciences, Eötvös Loránd University, Faculty of Education and Psychology, Budapest, Hungary Aim: Psychometric properties of the Hungarian version of the original and the short form of the Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS) were investigated in the present study. Methods: Participants were undergraduate university students (N=1163) and patients visiting their General Practitioners (GPs) for various somatic complaints (N=466). Results: According to the confirmatory factor analysis, both versions showed adequate fit to the theoretical one-and-one (positive and negative affect) factor model. Internal consistency coefficients (Cronbach-alpha values) were above .8 for the original positive and negative scales, .73 and .79 for the short positive scale, and .65 and .67 for the short negative scale in the student and the patient groups, respectively. The correlations between the original 10-item subscales and their 5-item counterparts were above .9 in both groups. Conclusion: The short PANAS scale represents a good and practical alternative for the original version, with lower but still acceptable internal consistency values. Keywords: PANAS, negative affect, positive affect, psychometric properties ver the past decades...
