...incremental change or a radical change. Therefore, shapes of organizational change in the case of Heineken Inc a large, Dutch beer-brewing company consists of initial radical change succeeded by incremental change. The change in the distribution system of beer from factory to consumer was a radical change by General Manger Feith. The impact of this radical change became intensely personal with the agents and management. Because the agents where the eyes and ears of Heineken and their job duties were to serve as many pubs as possible they were threaten by the sudden change. However, the organization change was a cultural shock and encountered much resistance by sales people, lower management and commercial managers. Similarly, CEO Freddy Heineken was not keen on diversification and blocked the majority of initiatives. He was too set in his ways. After all, “the study focuses on a major change in the distribution system of beer and a period of structural inertia, caused by long CEO tenure” (Beugelsdijk, Slangen, & Herpen, 2002). It took many years but finally the shape of the organization change resulted from a radical change into an incremental change. Actually, it is said that “incremental change goes on all the time-or at least it ought to” (Nadler, 1998, p. 50). In sum, the change in the distribution system of Heineken was the very first major change ever. References: Beugelsdijk, S., Slangen, A., & Herpen, M. (2002).

...two- and three- dimensional geometric shapes and relative positions in space (Standards, 2012). Instructional Goal 1 Identify two-dimensional shapes and three-dimensional shapes. Learning Objective 1: Students will take and identify foam two-dimensional shapes square, circle, triangle, and rectangle from a mystery bag with 80% accuracy. Justification: The mystery bag is used to cover the foam shapes from view. Students will need to use their sense of touch and their knowledge of the properties of the solids to identify them. Students are able to explore different orientations, sizes, and types to recognize that each shape has distinguishable characteristics. Learning Objective 2: Students will identify and record on paper three-dimensional shapes cube, sphere, and cylinder using real-world examples of the solids with 80% accuracy. Justification: Students explore these shapes using concrete models, pictures, and real world examples to generalize connections among mathematics, the environment, and other subjects. Learning Objective 3: Students will identify two out of three attributes (color, sides, size) from two-dimensional shapes square, circle, triangle, and rectangle. Justification: Students will use memorization and recognition skills to tackle these mathematical ideas. As students identify shapes and their attributes, they discuss and justify their answers to their teacher. Students understand the attributes of each shape through recognition. Instructional...

...question ‘edges’. The artist that I researched first was Emma Lundgren, I found her ‘future folkore’ work interesting. The materials that she used to make a piece were things like plastic Lego, cross stich and dalahorses. Her print inspired me to design styles for necklaces. I also researched an artist called Kathryn Del Barton, the unusual edges on her portrait work was really satisfying to study. Doing a painting inspired by one of her work then trying wire to show off the lines and edges used on the face and hands. Using wire with Kathryn’s work gave me inspiration in bending the wire to whatever shape and design I wanted to create. I figured out that wire would be a good link to my chosen necklace. Deciding to use organic shapes and materials, I decided to focus on shapes of bones. I used card to specify the basic shape. Then I decided to wrap around wire to give it a tighter shape. Then using the technique of ‘dry brushing’ I painted the section of bone that I wrapped wire around. Then focusing on the texture of bone, I decided to try put plaster on to add a bony texture to it. The plaster was successful, especially after dry brushing paint on to add colour, it made the piece look like bone. Dry brushing was something I hadn’t done before; this was something that my teacher recommended after hearing about my idea. I was exploring how to represent the bones in different ways, I first used only wire, then I used cardboard and wire, then I used cardboard wire and plaster to finish...

...Whether you believe it or not you are shaping something right now. In the midst of all the confusion and hardships we as people are shaping something. Some people choose to ignore it, on the flip side many decide to embrace it. It is called our American Identity. It shapes who we are as people in what we believe in. It also defines our ability as “outcast citizens” to ban as one together against a common enemy if needed. This ability to shape our own government and to take pride in our nation is a special thing that only we as American citizens are able to grasp. We are a nation of loose ends that ship here from miles away to be tied together in one shoe. This shoe of loose ends of the broken ties of the world is a special place on Earth where...

...can tell it has to do with farming because of what looks like crops are planted and that the three people may be picking crops. Wood uses many forms of visual elements in this painting. One element is the use of lines. Lines are used to create boundaries between each piece of land. The crops that are planted are used to make lines. The lines also show direction of the crops. Diagonal lines are also used to show feelings of movement over the rolling hills. The fencing of the pastures forms lines. A line also forms the horizon. Another visual element Wood uses is shapes. The primary geometric shape used in this piece is the circle. The trees and the bushes are made with circles. The house is made up of triangles and rectangles. The crops at the bottom of the painting form diamonds. The rolling hills are organic shapes because they appear to have a natural look. The three people in the painting are positive shapes because they stand out and we focus on them. The next visual element is light. Woods use of light and shadow give the piece a three-dimensional feel. The shadows that the trees are making imply that the sun is shining up in the sky. The shadows also give you a sense of depth and it makes you feel as though you are standing on the hill looking down over the farm. The main colors of the piece are greens and browns. They can be categorized as secondary colors. Wood uses different shades of green for the trees and the hills. He uses different shades of browns for the...

...forgotten completely. Empowerment is an important part of the human services profession and therefore the barriers that affect empowerment associated with human services need to be looked at and addressed. Barriers Associated with Empowerment Within human services empowerment is a key aspect of helping individuals seeking help. Human services professionals work with individuals in need of help that the individual is unable to achieve on his or her own. Where human service professionals have an array of information and guidance available to him or her, clients that seek out assistance from human services professionals do not. This is where empowerment begins to take shape and where human services individuals start encountering barriers in the attempts of empowerment. Barriers become present in many different shapes and forms when empowerment is concerned. One of the biggest barriers that a human service professional encounters in regards to empowerment is resistance. When human services professionals begin helping individuals the human service professional works on the individual’s self-esteem and empowers the individual to become independent. Many times this empowerment is met with resistance caused by the fear that an individual has with the change that will occur. This resistance can be a large barrier in the way of empowerment for the client and the human services...

Do you think that your house lacks the right shades that energize you? That is right time when your house needs a makeover. Here are some simple decorating tips and recommendations can go a long way to give you that cozy cute home. PLANTS They are nature’s beauty in abundance. Plants can add a refreshing feeling when kept in your room or living room. Surrounded by so many materials and artificial things around can make you feel plastic. Plants allow better flow of air in your room. This inexpensive tip does not only brightens up your room but also give you an healthy air to breathe. ADD NEW PILLOWS TO YOUR SOFA Buy new fabric to stitch your pillow cover. Do not stick to a single fabric design or the same colour. Instead buy colors that will contrast with each other (like yellow and light green). Mix different fabrics together to get that funky design especially if you have youngsters and kids at home (because their visitors will love it). The patterns in vogue now are floral and block prints. Make sure to add a zip to your pillows as it will make it easy for you to wash it and use it again.

...of mentally revolving 3d and 2d figures (or letters) into different spatial orientations and often associated with the judging of ones spacial processing ability as well as a persons level of intelligence. Mental rotation ability is measured by testing the speed and accuracy in which one is able to decipher between which pairs of shapes have been revolved about a central point, and pairs of shapes which are mirrored versions of the initial figure. In 1971, Roger Shepard and Jacqueline Metzler introduced the concept of mental rotation to the field of Cognitive Psychology after performing a series of studies measuring the reaction time and degree of accuracy in which it took participants to recognize whether between a pair of figures, the second shape was identical to the first and had simply been rotated about a point or was a reflected/mirrored version of the original figure. It is my belief that both the reaction time and percentage correct are greatly affected by angular disparity and are negatively correlated as a function of angle. I predict that the highest reaction time and lowest percent of accurate shape identifications will occur when a shape has been mirrored and rotated more than 90 degrees from it’s initial starting point. I believe that there will be both lower reaction time and a higher percent correct when blocks are rotated to a position that has a lower degree of angular disparity when juxtiposed with the original arangement of blocks. According to an article titled...

...Geometric Shapes The Activity that I have come up with is called I Spy Geometric Shapes for kindergarten or first grade as I will be instructing either grade level. Before I attempt to play this game, I will make sure that my students are aware of the different shapes. Detailed Description/Instructions for the Activity-I as the teacher say I spy something with eight sides, three sides, four sides, five sides, or six sides. I can put my class into three groups and then call out the sides, I will give each group a couple of minutes to figure out what geometric shape I am speaking of whether it is a triangle, rectangle, hexagon, trapezoid, parallelogram, or pentagon. I would then ask the children to describe the shape, for example a rectangle can be used for a computer screen. This game will help my students better understand these different geometric shapes, and it can also be quite fun, as the children will play by themselves eventually. Materials needed- Pictures of a pentagons, trapezoids, triangles, hexagon, rectangle, and a parallelogram, these items are going to be large enough so the children are able to see them. I will also have pictures from magazines as well, so they are able to see these geometric shapes in a real-life manner.

...Principles of design determines how successful we are in creating a work of art. THE ELEMENTS OF DESIGNLINE Line can be considered in two ways. The linear marks made with a pen or brush or the edge created when two shapes meet.SHAPE A shape is a self contained defined area of geometric or organic form. A positive shape in a painting automatically creates a negative shape.DIRECTION All lines have direction - Horizontal, Vertical or Oblique. Horizontal suggests calmness, stability and tranquillity. Vertical gives a feeling of balance, formality and alertness. Oblique suggests movement and action see notes on directionSIZE Size is simply the relationship of the area occupied by one shape to that of another.TEXTURE Texture is the surface quality of a shape - rough, smooth, soft hard glossy etc. Texture can be physical (tactile) or visual. see notes on textureCOLOUR Also called Hue see notes on colourVALUE Value is the lightness or darkness of a colour. Value is also called Tone see notes on tonal contrastTHE PRINCIPLES OF DESIGN BALANCE Balance in design is similar to balance in physics A large shape close to the center can be balanced by a small shape close to the edge. A large light toned shape will be balanced by a small dark toned shape (the darker the shape the heavier it appears to be)GRADATION Gradation of size and direction produce linear perspective.

...There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way to death. Poverty of Mind Underline idea(s) that you find intriguing The mind is a very powerful tool that runs on the data that we put into it. We all have lenses that filter how we see the world around us. Based on what passes through those lenses, we build a system of how we perceive the world. It shapes what we believe to be true. Our life, culture, choices everything is shaped by these beliefs. These lenses are given to us through the influences throughout our life. We all have key people or events that shaped our belief systems. Our parents, siblings, friends, culture, media, religion all play a big role in what lens we wear. Culture is formed by a group of people that all wear similar lens or have shared belief systems. There is nothing good or bad about that, it is just a way of life for all of us. Our beliefs shape what we value in life. They shape what our culture values. Our values shape the actions or behaviors we engage in. They shape the common practices of our culture, our communities. Our actions or behaviors always lead to results or outcomes. To put it simply think of a tree. The roots are like our beliefs they hold us in place and provide stability. Our values are like the trunk of that tree. They are visible and strong. Our actions or behaviors are like the branches, they stem from what we value. Lastly the fruit or flowers that grow on the branches are the results of our actions or behaviors...

...White 22199774 ECE130: Health, Safety, and Nutrition for the young child 605845 Shape Sorting Wooden Toy The toy I chose was the shape sorting wooden toy. This toy is for 2 to 3 year olds, in the basic version of the shape sorter consists of the wooden or plastic cubes or balls with different shaped cut outs, along with three dimensional shapes to fit correspondingly shaped holes. This toy is educational for this age group because with this toy it helps children with early mathematical skills and teaches the child how to learn about problem solving skills. For example, when a child attempts to fit a triangle into a circular hole and it does not fit, they then stop trying to fit it in that hole and moves to another hole. The wooden shape sorting toy is developmentally appropriate because it helps kids become familiar with their shapes and color, also it helps develop the smaller muscles in a child’s hands and feet which helps with movement and coordination. When a child picks up different shape in their hands, turns them over, and tries to fit them into the corresponding hole this is called fine motor skills. The wooden shape sorter is very appealing to children because of the bright bold colors; the manufactures make this toy with bright colors because it keeps a child’s attention and makes them wonder what this objects is, and what also makes I appealing is because of the shapes, since children at this age curiosity is at its peak they will want to know why this object...

...Crystal Jacobs Professor Youngblood English comp I 29 October 2014 My Inspiration Everyone needs to be inspired and having others inspire someone can only have positive effects on them. As a child one finds a person in their life to look up to and motivate them to do great things. Our Secrets by Susan Griffin tells how people in her past make her the way she is today. Many people in my live inspire me to do great things and live up to the potential I have. So many people in my live inspired me and continue to do so as I mature into adulthood. My dance teacher, grandmother, uncle, and mom all inspire me as a young child and they things they said and did are now put in to action as I see myself becoming an adult and on my own. Throughout “Our Secret” Griffin explores the different characters’ fears and secrets and she gives specific insights into these “secrets”. Through examining others Griffin comes to terms with her own feelings, secrets, and fears. Susan Griffin states, “Now, for different reasons, I too find myself on the track of a child’s soul. The dimensions of Heinrich Himmler’s life have put me on this track.’” (239). This saying the book leads me to think that Himmler shaped her and made her who she is today. My life is shaped around people who motivate to be successful. My family and friends are the ones who lead me to where I am today. Going to college was not an option it was necessary. My dance teacher, my uncle, grandmother, and mother installed the wisdom I have...
