... that he cannot remember what he did to belong in prison. Meanwhile, the grandmother tells The Misfit that he just needs to pray to Jesus and he will be holy again. However, the grandmother tries to manipulate the Misfit to get him to do what she wants, and her faith in God is fake. In A Good Man is Hard to Find, there are two misfits in the story, which are The Misfit and the grandmother. Not surprisingly, the main character, The Misfit, does not blend in with society. The Misfit portrays himself as someone that has been mistreated by society through his time in prison. He has examined his faith and doubts God. His views that he does not need God or that Jesus should not have raised the dead differs from a largely Christian southern demographic where he lives. He explains to the grandma that he can’t find good in himself, saying “I ain’t a good man,”(O'Connor 148) whereas most people see themselves as good. However, it is likely that he is a psychopath and a compulsive liar, which explains why he believes himself to be a misfit. Ali Venosa, a neuroscience reporter,...

...BLANTYRE INTERNATIONAL UNIVERSITY ASSIGNMENT: PRINCIPLES OF MARKETING (BBA 122) INDEX NO. DATE: 17/03/14 ASSIGNMENT ONE. A. Usefulness of Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs to Marketing In the most basic sense, Maslow's hierarchy identifies five primary areas of needs experienced by most humans. Beginning with physiological, or basic life survival, needs, the model progresses in subsequent steps through safety and security, love and belongingness, self-esteem and finally selfactualization. Maslow postulated that as man meets the needs at the first level, he moves toward the next, then the next and so on. More recent studies have added levels to the needs hierarchy and refined the categories, but marketing classes throughout the country continue to use Maslow's needs hierarchy as a reasonable focus for modern marketing efforts. Maslow posited that human behaviour and decision-making are motivated by one of the five need levels in his hierarchy. Applied to marketing theory, your ability to effectively appeal to one of these motivational drivers is a key determinant of your potential success. Non-essential services massage treatments or custom tailoring, for example - may be marketed successfully to those in the fourth or fifth level of Maslow's hierarchy because those people are driven by the needs for increased self-esteem and realizing their full potential. The same marketing campaign is unlikely to appeal to those on the first level, as they are driven by the most basic of human needs:...

...The Attitude of Youth Populations toward Globalization What exactly are the youth views on globalization? First let’s start by defining globalization. Globalization refers to increasing global connectivity, integration and interdependence in the economic, social, technological, cultural, political, and ecological spheres. Globalization is an umbrella term and is perhaps best understood as a unitary process inclusive of many subprocesses that are increasingly binding people and the biosphere more tightly into one global system (Wikipedia, 2007). Next let’s verify the term youth. Youth is "The time of life when one is young; especially: a: the period between childhood and maturity b: the early period of existence, growth, or development" (Wikipedia, 2007). “Globalizing issues have effects on four major areas of international relations theory and practice. First, the interconnectedness of the plethora of subissues within health, environmental, and human rights issues affect international bargaining” (Mingst, 2004). These issues are talked about daily in the news. Often times when health issues are brought up it is related to youth whether it is HIV, STD’s, or just simple obesity. Often times these issues when viewed at by youth are things that do not affect them in actuality it affect them more so than adults. “Second, these globalizing issues themselves may be the source of conflict” (Mingst). With this being said it is evident why the world goes through epidemics...

...LaTrice D. Narcisse Lnarcisse7@gmail.com Leadership & Organizational Behavior MGMT 591 Effective Internal Communication Professor Joseph Neptune February 22, 2015 Abstract Proper communication with any company is imperative to its daily operations and employee morale. Communication is defined as purposeful activity of exchanging information and meaning using various techniques or natural means. Large companies can lose sight of this as they grow and grow outside of their center of operations. When any company acquires additional business and begins to run it in a different culture it is important to know how that culture or environment thinks, acts, and responds before setting up shop. If this is properly done then this prevents the possibility of misinformation or a misrepresentation of the information being relayed. There are several basic activates that can provide a solid foundation to and for management in a good communication process. Managers should hold monthly meetings with all staff together; this provides a sense of teamwork and necessary information gets to everyone at the same time. Managers should also weekly or bi-weekly meetings with all managers. These types of meetings should be held regardless if there is a problem or not. They are to support the exchange of ideas and questions, to gain clarity. Each location should have their own processes while staying true the company’s goals and any standard practices that already in place. AmeriHealth...

...KRAFT’S BUDGETING AND STRATEGY A case study Presented to CASE STUDY IN PRODUCTION AND OPERATION MANAGEMENT BUDGETING AND STRATEGY A KRAFT FOOD INTRODUCTION The company has its origin as National Dairy Products Corporation (National Dairy), formed on December 10, 1923, by Thomas H. McInnerney. The firm was initially set up to execute on a rollup strategy in the then fragmented United States ice cream industry. Through acquisitions it expanded into a full range of dairy products. By 1930 it was the largest dairy company in the United States and the world, exceeding Borden. McInnerney operated the Hydrox Corporation, an ice cream company located in Chicago, Illinois. In 1923 he went to Wall Street to convince investment bankers there to finance his scheme for consolidating the United States ice cream industry. He initially found "hard sledding" with one banker saying the dairy industry "lacked dignity." He persevered and convinced a consortium including Goldman Sachs and Lehman Brothers to finance a rollup strategy. As a result of his efforts, National Dairy Products Corporation was formed in 1923 in a merger of McInnerney's Hydrox with Rieck McJunkin Dairy Co of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The resulting firm was then listed on the New York Stock Exchange with the offer of 125,000 shares having been The firm grew quickly through a large number of acquisitions. As it is typical...

...A. Geography >China stretches some 5,026 kilometres (3,123 mi) across the East Asian landmass. China is bordered by seas and waters eastward, with the East China Sea, Korea Bay, Yellow Sea, Taiwan Strait, and South China Sea, and bordered by landmasses on its 3 other sides, from North Korea to Vietnam. China has been officially and conveniently divided into 5 homogeneous physical macro-regions: Eastern China (subdivided into the northeast plain, north plain, and southern hills), Xinjiang-Mongolia, and the Tibetan-highlands. Its physical features are multiples. The eastern and southern half of the country, its seacoast fringed with offshore islands, is a region of fertile lowlands and foothills with most of the agricultural output and human population. The western and northern half of China is a region of sunken basins (Gobi, Taklamakan), rolling plateaus, and towering massifs, including a portion of the highest tableland on earth (Tibetan Plateau) with lower agricultural possibilities and thus, far less populated. Traditionally, the Chinese population centered around the Chinese central plain and oriented itself toward its own enormous inland market, developing as an imperial power whose center lay in the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River on the northern plains. More recently, the 18,000-kilometers coastline have been used extensively for export-oriented trade, making a power shift, with the coastline provinces becoming the leading economic center.
