...Sarah Waters (Use your name) Mr. Ervin (Please use this designation for my name.) AASC 3301.02 (Use your course and section designation) 10 February 2009 (Use due date) Sartre’s Nausea (Center title) Published in April of 1938, Nausea was Jean-Paul Sartre’s first novel. What began as a twenty-six year old scholar’s “pamphlet on contingency” (Duncan 91) remains a work of profound literary and philosophical influence. Nausea is set in a fictional Bouville, France. Walters indicates, “Bouville is Sartre’s fictional version of the western French port Le Havre” (para. 1). In early January, 1932, Antoine Roquentin begins his diary as a means to think through changes in his perception of the world. Discrepancies make it difficult to establish specific dates. Roquentin’s initial dated entry is “Monday, 29 January, 1932” (4). However, 29 January, 1932, was a Friday. Additionally, the third through sixth entries include two Thursdays and Fridays. If those are accurately labeled, they are separated by a week. Given that, the record must cover a five-week period. However, the time span will not accommodate five weeks. Therefore, the initial two Thursdays and Fridays are either not separated by a week or are mislabeled. Dating the fifth entry, “Thursday, 11.30” (27-30) 4 February, 1932, brings the remaining entries into a coherent sequence. Assuming that the date for the initial entry is 29 January, 1932, and that Roquentin met Anny on Saturday, 20 February, the diary begins on...

...Business Law & Bankruptcy Assignment #4 Aquaman is president of a marine research company called Underwater Leagues, Inc. When his company conceived a dramatic new invention, he held off announcing the discovery until he bought 50,000 shares of Underwater Leagues at $10 per share. After the announcement, the share price skyrocketed to $50 per share. The shareholders of Underwater Leagues, Inc. bring a derivative action suit against Aquaman claiming breach of fiduciary duty for violating 17 C.F.R. §240.10b-5 of the Securities and Exchange Commission Act of 1934 by purchasing stock in his company on the basis of information that was not available to the public. The shareholders seek remedy for their claim. If a president of a corporation purchases stock in his company on the basis of non-public information that he deliberately withheld from the public, is he in violation of 17 C.F.R. §240.10b-5 of the Securities and Exchange Commission Act of 1934, and will he be held liable to shareholders for damages? In Robert Kemp v. Universal American Financial Corporation, Fed. Sec. L. Rep.

...Business Law & Bankruptcy Assignment #5 When Josh was asked, during a bankruptcy proceeding, whether he had ever been sued, he responded that he had not. In fact, he had once been sued for intentional infliction of emotional distress. That suit had been settled many years earlier and had no financial impact on Josh today. Josh’s debts were discharged in bankruptcy. Creditors want the discharge revoked because of Josh’s lie. Should a discharge be revoked because of a lie made in court by the debtor that had no impact on the case? In Dale Alleman v. Brett J. Kitson, 341 Fed. Appx. 234 (7 Cir. 2009) Brett J. Kitson and his wife, Courtney, had filed a joint bankruptcy petition in Bankruptcy Court for the Central District of Illinois. Dale Alleman commenced an adversary proceeding on behalf of himself and his company, Illectronics, Inc., where Mr. Kitson had previously been employed. He argued that Mr. Kitson was ineligible for discharge under 11 U.S.C.§727 because his bankruptcy petition and supporting documents contained various false statements and omissions. Mr. Alleman also claimed that Mr. Kitson owed him a $15,000 loan that was non-dischargeable. The court had concluded that Mr. Alleman did not prove that Mr. Kitson concealed or destroyed any documents material to his bankruptcy petition, or made any material false statement in connection with it. Accordingly, the bankruptcy court concluded that Mr. Kitson was eligible for discharge of all of his non-secured debts....

...Business Law & Bankruptcy Assignment #3 Joan sits on the board of ManBank, a large publicly held bank located in New York City. Her friend Bob asks her for a loan of $300 million to start a new airline. Joan researches Bob’s background and discovers that Bob worked as an assistant regional manager for a Midwest airline for 12 years, and during Bob’s tenure there, his region increased sales by 28%. Based on this information and on her friendship with Bob, Joan recommends Bob for the loan, and the board accepts her recommendation. Bob’s airline falls into bankruptcy, Bob defaults on the loan, and the bank is only able to recover $150 million. The shareholders bring a derivative lawsuit against Joan for breach of her fiduciary duty of care. They claim that her research into Bob was deficient, and based on Bob’s background and the state of the airline industry Joan should have known that the venture was not likely to succeed. Is Joan’s conduct protected by the business judgment rule, and is the derivative action against Joan likely to succeed? InBayer v.

Comparing the relationships of these ratios reveals that Orica decreased their liquidity, but suffered lower profitability with heavy influences from Minova’s impairment of goodwill. With high asset utilisation and stable efficiency, Orica should focus on improving their maintenance and reliability by addressing the Kooragang plant shutdown. Furthermore, Orica is financing more with debt than equity which introduces some risk to the company given their higher expenses for 2012. Finally, the investment ratios indicate that Orica could be poised for high growth with a stable return, but should first focus on maximising their plants and equipment.

...IMPACT OF DEMOCRACY ON ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT Impact of Democracy on Economic Development (Student’s Name) Professor (Name) Political Science 25 April 2012 IMPACT OF DEMOCRACY ON ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT Abstract IMPACT OF DEMOCRACY ON ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT Impact of Democracy on Economic Development Introduction There is a need to put into proper perspective the impact of democracy on economic development. In recent years, the discourse about democracy and development has gained prominence. Countries with long history of democratic governance have been noted to be doing well economically. It is the view of this author that so far a comprehensive assessment of the full impact of democracy on economic development is yet to be done.Probably, the reason as to why this has been so is because there is an obvious assumption that democracy will always have a positive impact on economic development. It is worthwhile however, to move away from the sweeping generalization and put this issue into proper perspective. It is proper to establish the full impact of democracy. In this study, the author will seek to establish the impact of democracy on economic development. Since its origins in ancient Greece, when Greeks created city states as communities...

...believe that everything IMI has taught me will help me to prepare for and succeed in my internship. 1.2.2 In-depth review of my weaknesses (personally) I have done the ‘Are you a perfectionist?’ test on page 52 of Reaching Your Potential by Mr. Throop and Mrs. Castellucci. This test shows that I am a perfectionist (see appendix on page 12). The test advices me to be easier on myself. Another one of my personal weakness is my lack of understanding when I am not being given the opportunity to voice out my opinion that I feel is significant to the individual or to the situation. 1.2.3 In depth review of my weaknesses (academically) My academic weakness is that I expect the lecturer to explain very well what he/she wants to see in an assignment. Otherwise I will not be specific in my writing, and instead I will wander off the topic making my work to ‘woolly’ as I like to call it. It is also hard for me to work under too much pressure. If the pressure gets to high, I tend to forget things and I will make unnecessary mistakes making the pressure even higher. That is why I am happy time management is one of my strengths. 1.3 Reviewing previously set targets for improvements Previously set targets in Certificate: Personal Goal 1: I would like to get to know at least 30 students at IMI by 20 October 2015.
