...When told to describe myself using a symbol I come to think of myself as a sour skittle. A sour skittle portrays some of my qualities such as my personality and my preferences. In the world everyone acts and behaves differently; this is me in comparison to an object that defines me as a unique being. The skittle and I are similar because it has a hard outer shell that only hard teeth can break into to get to the soft chewy inside. I have a hard time trusting people because I usually find myself being let down when I actually do trust them. Therefore, I’ve built a “protective shell” to keep myself from being let down. When people actually do get past my shell they tend to be surprised at how different I really am compared to what I let them...

...Goal of this project is to use paper chromatography to see which dyes are used in the coatings of your favorite colored candies. Why do different compounds travel different distance on the piece of paper? How is an Rf value useful? What is chromatography used for? Candy with colored coatings- Skittles and M & M’s At least 30 strips of paper- coffee filters or chromatography paper 3 cm by 9 cm Wide-mouth jar Pencil Ruler Tape Water Toothpicks Food coloring ( red, green and blue) 1. Do your background research so that you are knowledgeable about the terms, concepts and questions above. 2. Use a pencil to lightly label which candy color or food coloring will be spotted on each paper strip. 3. Draw a pencil line 2 cm from the edge of each strip of paper. 4. Next you need to extract some dye from each candy you wish to test. Set the candy down on a clean plate in a drop of water. Leave it for a minute to allow the dye to dissolve. Remove candy, then dip a clean toothpick into the now-colored drop of water. Spot the candy dye solution onto the chromatography paper by touching the toothpick to the chromatography strip, right in the center of the origin line. Allow the spot to dry, then repeat the spotting at least three more times. You want to make sure to have enough dye on the chromatography paper so that you can see the dye components when they separate out on the paper. Make five separate strips for each...

...ABSTRACT This paper briefly discusses Mars Inc., beginning with a brief history of its origins in 1911. The paper continues with identifying some of their products, as well as some initiatives they are currently working on here in the U.S. as well as abroad. Some elements of administrative law that may be relevant to the current and up-coming initiatives and are discussed as well as the sales laws needed to be considered. Recommendations are made to help the company minimize threats of lawsuits. Frank C. Mars began making candies in his Tacoma, Washington, kitchen in 1911 and established the company’s first roots in the confectionary business. In the 1920s, his son, Forrest E. Mars Sr., joined his father in business and together they launched the now world famous Milky Way bar. In 1932 Forrest Sr. moved to the United Kingdom where he founded his own company with a dream of building a business model based on his philosophy of a “mutuality of benefits for all stakeholders”. This vision serves as the foundation of the Mars Incorporated we know today. Mars, Incorporated is a private, family-owned company and employs more than 65,000 associates at over 230 sites, including 135 factories, in 71 countries worldwide. Headquartered in McLean, Virginia, U.S.A., Mars Incorporated is one of the world’s largest food companies, generating global revenues of more than $30 billion annually and operating in six business segments: Chocolate, Petcare, Wrigley Gum and Confections, Food...

...An Trinh CMST 340 Pros. Amy Miller Mar 19th, 2015 Research Paper The United States is an immigrant nation, so there are different religion and color in America. Since the United States is one of the most wealthy nation in the world, other nations assume that America also an equitable country, which all race live happily together. However, they do not aware of how much racism still occur in schools, workforces, and any where else in the United States. Racism is the discrimination of different races and is the thought of one race or color of skin has more physical or mental abilities than another. Clinton (1997) believed over 100 different racial and ethnic groups would attend in colleges and universities, and Nobel Prize winners have given to various nations. While Clinton (1997) believed that there would not be such racism in the United States for the next half century, Ballman (2011) argued that discrimination has gotten more clearly over these years. While blacks and whites generally agree that they get along well, Robert (2013) stated that about seven in ten black people and more than one in four white people coincide that blacks are treated unfairly by the criminal system. Additionally, in public schools, white students have more benefits than black students. This unequal treatment also happens in workplace. Moreover, one in three blacks, one in five Hispanic Americans and one in ten whites claimed that they received inequitable respect last year because of perceptions...

...Abstract Brands rushed into social media, viewing social networks, video sharing, online communities, and microblogging sites as the panacea to diminishing returns for traditional brand building routes. But as more branding activity moves to the Web, marketers are confronted with the stark realization that social media was made for people, not for brands. In this article, we explore the emergent cultural landscape of open source branding, and identify marketing strategies directed at the hunt for consumer engagement on the People’s Web. These strategies present a paradox, for to gain coveted resonance, the brand must relinquish control. We discuss how Webbased power struggles between marketers and consumer brand authors challenge accepted branding truths and paradigms: where short-term brands can trump longterm icons; where marketing looks more like public relations; where brand building gives way to brand protection; and brand value is driven by risk, not returns. # 2011 Kelley School of Business, Indiana University.

The party crashers: Marketers and the Social Web Brands today claim hundreds of thousands of Facebook friends, Twitter followers, online community members, and YouTube fans; yet, it is a lonely, scary time to be a brand manager.

The same complexity that gives us the ability to manipulate objects also makes us vulnerable to manipulation. It is very Important for advertisers to study the human psycology and consumer behaviour inorder to exert maximun influence on target consumers. They aim at the vulnerabilities of human mind. A successfull ad agency is one which “manipulates human motivations and desires and develops a need for goods with which the public has at one time been unfamiliar-perhaps even undesirous of purchasing.” - Ernest Dichter President, Institute of Motivational Research.

Those appeals are: Self-preservation Sex Acquisition of property Self-esteem Personal enjoyment Constructiveness Destructiveness Curiosity...

Answer the following 4 questions. What is the smallest probability the intersection of A and B can have? What is the largest probability the intersection of A and B can have? What is the smallest probability the union of A and B can have? What is the largest probability the union of A and B can have? .15, .4, .75, and 1 respectively. Extra 1.2 Suppose we are rolling 2 independent, fair 10-sided die. Let A be the event that the sum of the rolls is a prime number. Let B be the event that the sum of the rolls is odd. Let C be the event that the sum of the rolls is even. Find the following sets: BC , A ∩ B, A ∪ C, A ∩ C, (A ∩ C)C , A ∩ (B ∩ C)C , (A ∩ (B ∩ C))C ? BC = C, A ∩ B = A \ {2}, A ∪ C = Ω \ {9, 15}, A ∩ C = {2}, (A ∩ C)C =Ω \ {2}, A ∩ (B ∩ C)C = A, and (A ∩ (B ∩ C))C = Ω. Extra 1.3 Suppose a lottery has balls numbered 1-20. 4 balls are picked at random and without replacement. Let A be the event that all 4 balls are even. Let B be the event that all 4 balls are less than 10. Let C be the event that all 4 balls are primes. (Allow 1 to be a prime.) Find P(A), P(B), and P(C). (Hint an extended general multiplication rule could be helpful.) P(all 4 even) = (10)4 (20)4 = .0433. (9) P(all less than 10) = (20)44 = .0260.
