...and oral tradition. In this paper, I hope to fit in what I can about both sides of my family. Starting with my Father’s side of the family, the Bloomberg’s come from Stockholm, Sweden. My Great-Great-Great Grandfather John Bloomberg immigrated to the United States in the late 1890’s and had their name changed to Blomberg; oddly enough most other Bloomberg's who immigrated to the United States kept their last name the same. He also immigrated with his brother, although not much is known about him. After his brother moved to America, he made his way down to Brazil...

...The early 1900s is named the Progressive Era because the county saw growth of political and social activism. During the period, Progressives sought to bring about changes concerning women, children, immigrants, and the poor and dealt with issues such as women’s suffrage, child and women’s labor conditions, prohibition, education, government regulation of industry, and political reforms. The movement gave birth to the rise of important figures like the acclaimed Susan B. Anthony who fought for the rights of women and the Abbott Sisters who helped in the development of social work by utilizing professional practices and research data. Religious clergy were also participants in the movement, specifically Catholic priest Edward Flanagan, who will be the focal point of this paper. Flanagan had a...

...Research Paper: Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald [pic] Lovely Louis and Abigail Saint – Juste English 1 Ms. M. Jeanty November 26, 2007 In the early jazzy years, there was a small restaurant where people were dancing to a new jazz number. They were laughing, eating, chatting, and enjoying themselves. In the mist of all the laughter, there sat a man in a dark corner writing vigorously. His name was Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald. He was an American author of novels and many short stories. He was also recognized as one of the greatest authors in the twentieth century. Fitzgerald’s Early Years Francis Scott K. Fitzgerald was born in St. Paul, Minnesota, on September 24, 1896. He was named after his famous distant cousin Francis Scott Key, who was the author of the National Anthem. His father, Edward Fitzgerald, and his mother were both Catholic and of Irish descent. However they both came from different societies. Fitzgerald’s mother came from a background where money was everything, such as: position and stability. And his father came from a background where discipline was the most importance. As a result all the attitudes and manners that were established in Fitzgerald’s character came from his father and all the concerns of stability in the society came from his mother. Between the years of 1898-1901 and 1903- 1908 he lived in Buffalo, New York. And this is when he attended Nardin Academy. However when his father was fired from his job, his family...

...Marketing Research Paper August 27, 2014 McDonald's Corporation The very first McDonald's was opened up in 1940. The name of the first McDonald’s, which was located in San Bernardino, CA, was McDonald's Bar-B-Que (Farfan). It was a typical 1940’s drive-in with roller-skating car hops (Mcdonalds.com). Richard "Dick" McDonald and Maurice "Mac" McDonald were the original owners (wm2@doney.net). The menu included 25 items, but simplified it to hamburgers and potato chips in 1948. Their McDonald’s was shut for three months, and in December, 1948 they reopened it as a drive-through restaurant (Mcdonalds.com). In 1949, milkshakes were added to the menu, and French fries replaced the potato chips (Farfan). In 1953, Stanley Meston designed the Golden Arches (Mcdonalds.com). Ray Kroc learned about the first McDonald's in 1954 when he tried to get them to buy a milkshake machine. He became a franchise manager in 1955. He also helped McDonald's open a franchise restaurant for the first time in Des Plaines, Illinois (Farfan). Ray Kroc purchased the interests and right of the McDonald’s name for the price of $2.7 million in 1965 (About McDonalds). McDonald’s has their own school to train employees called Hamburger University (H.U.). The Hamburger University was opened in 1961, located in the Elk Grove Village’s basement in Illinois (Mcdonalds.com). When employees graduate from Hamburger University they receive a Bachelor of Hamburgerology degree (About McDonalds). Their training statement:...

...Group Influence Some groups are formal with designated titles and rules. Other groups are informal, organized casually and have unwritten or flexible rules. For purposes of this paper, I chose to observe a district meeting of the Med Pay Unit within my company. I have highlighted my observations and thoughts below: Part I The meeting was held in a conference room large enough to hold 30 people, however there were only 12 members on the team. The seating arrangement was U-shaped with chairs around the outside. The manager sat in the center. The composition of the group was comprised of seven women and five men whose ages ranged from 22-mid 50’s. The racial makeup included African Americans, Caucasians, Hispanics and a Bi-racial member. The meeting was scheduled to start at 2 p.m. and when I arrived five minutes early, I found that everyone had already arrived. The meeting started on time. The unit is a department of Nationwide Insurance and their focus is processing medical payments for members who have suffered injuries in accidents. The number one focus for the unit is providing excellent customer service while exemplifying the core values of the company. The Med Pay unit is long-term and in fact, will be expanding to add two more teams which will include a bi-lingual unit. The manager passed out an agenda at the beginning of the meeting and was successful in keeping to it. She was the primary facilitator of the group, but introduced a guest speaker from...

Armitage Robinson, D.D, Fellow of the British Academy Dean of Wells 1921 London: Published for the British Academy By Humphrey Milford, Oxford University Press Amen Corner, E.C. PRINTED IN ENGLAND AT THE OXFORD UNIVERSITY PRESS BY FREDERICK HALI, 76$ J 9 2/ PREFACE The writer of these pages makes no claim to be a historian, but he is concerned with the materials which go to the construction of true history. Occasionally he is led to revise the verdicts of historians on the ground of a renewed investigation of some isolated problem, or in the light of fuller information which has but lately become available. He hopes that he has done this with sufficient modesty. As a rule he has avoided direct controversy and has preferred a positive presentation of the revised position. He is well aware that when offered thus silently the corrections he desires to make are less likely to attract immediate attention than if he directly challenged fallacies which shelter under honoured names. But he writes from mere love of the subjects to which he has been drawn by the circumstances of his position and by local patriotism ; and he has experienced more than once the temporary blindness pro- duced by the dust of conflict. On the other hand he asks for criticism, ...
