...Mariana: Shakespeare's “The Tempest” was set in a fictional island that was somewhere in the Mediterranean in renaissance Europe. The imaginary island gave Shakespeare the opportunity to create endless possibilities for activities in the story. The island was described as “ barren and arid” and magical place. The Twelfth Night was set in an imaginary Dukedom in a city called Illyria which is today parts of Serbia, Slovenia, Bosnia, Albania, Croatia, and Montenegro. It is a place set on the Adriatic coast which gave Shakespeare the perfect mysterious setting he had in mind for his play. The main part of the play takes place in Paris and Roussillon France and as well as Italy. Shakespeare's “Measure for Measure” takes place in the Catholic...

...The ability to lead is not a rare quality, but possessing all of the traits that make up a great leader is anything but common. The Tempest by William Shakespeare is about a former duke of Milan, Prospero, who was banished to an island with his daughter Miranda, after his brother, Antonio, usurped his power. The play begins with a storm created by Prospero that brings Antonio and prospers other enemies onto the island, along with a romantic interest for Miranda. One of the major themes in The Tempest is political power. Shakespeare represented many different approaches to power and leadership in The Tempest. These ideas are personified in the characters of the play, Gonzalo, Antonio, and Prospero. Each character possesses a quality or lack thereof that demonstrates their approach to power. The three important qualities needed for a great leader are the ability to lead with a great...

...The Tempest by William Shakespeare is a play about the sorcerer Prospero and his influence on an island. Prospero is the most powerful being on the island because he is free and has magical powers. With this power, he controls the other characters in the story. For example, he sets up his daughter with a prince and manipulates the other men who end up there. He exercises his will on the island with the help of his slaves Ariel and Caliban. In short, Ariel and Caliban (both enslaved servants to Prospero) have the same obligations to Prospero, but go about their business with a different mindset. For most of the play, Ariel and Caliban are enslaved servants to Prospero. They must obey Prospero and exercise his will throughout the island. The servants have a lot in common between their two situations. They were both affiliated with the witch Sycorax who is now dead. After her death, they both became servants to Prospero. Now, they are both forced to obey his commands. All in all, Ariel and Caliban have some similarities in their relationship with Prospero....

...Often called William Shakespeare’s farewell to the stage, The Tempest is considered to be one of his greatest plays. The Tempest is not set in reality, but in a mysterious world that melded everyday people and material with a beautiful fantasia. The Tempest features many fantastic themes, three of them include power and control, man versus monster and colonization. Out of all of the themes in The Tempest, these three themes are the most prevalent. The theme of power and control mainly ensues within Prospero, himself. This is prevailing in the way he treats his servants, Caliban and Ariel. Prospero says many nasty things to Caliban such as, “Thou poisonous slave, got by the devil himself. Upon thy wicked dam, Come forth!” (I.ii.383-384) From...

...Jan Rey Juarez Mr. Palumbo Period 5 The Tempest and Slavery Slavery, in simple terms, is the forcing of an individual to perform labor. In William Shakespeare’s The Tempest, the character Caliban was forced into slavery by another character, Prospero. Despite the dark nature of Caliban’s enslavement, Prospero is justified in enslaving Caliban. This is due to the fact that in this specific circumstance, slavery is being used as a punishment for a terrible crime and for betraying Prospero’s trust. That being said, enslaving Caliban was justified because it rightfully punished Caliban for performing a deed of such immorality and for betraying Prospero. The misdeed, for which Caliban was enslaved, was the attempted rape...

...| TEMPEST Paper | | A brief look into the history and evolution of compromising emanations. | | Nicole King CIS 284s Winter 2013 | 2/1/2013 | | Introduction TEMPEST stands for “Telecommunications Electronics Material Protected From Spurious Emanating Transmissions”. It also is used to refer to security preventing any exploitation of vulnerabilities created by compromising emanations of electrical devices. Basically when electrical devices operate, they generate electromagnetic signals that can be intercepted and used to reconstruct sensitive information. “Listening” for these signals is known as “eavesdropping”. With the right equipment an eavesdropper can be hundreds of feet from the signal. This presents a real problem when a computer is processing classified information. The NSA (National Security Agency) has developed the TEMPEST standard which consists of several industry measurements to avoid such leakage. These computers have heavy metal cases, different power supplies and some additional modifications. History TEMPEST came about in 1918 by a man named Herbert Yardley. He and his Black Chamber staff were instructed by the U.S. Army to find ways to detect and exploit combat radio transmitters and telephones. Yardley determined that normal equipment was allowing secret information to be passed to the enemy via technical vulnerabilities. A program was then created to find ways to prevent the compromising emanations. Even though the initial...

...Once you’ve already decided what topic you will be writing about, the next thing you should pay attention to is the scope of your paper or what you will be including in your discussion. The broader your topic is, the more difficult it is to discuss your topic in full details. This is why you should establish before hand the scope and limitations of your paper and this will be the foundation of your research paper outline. Basically, your outline will constitute three main parts namely the Introduction, the Body and the Conclusion. But to make sure your paper is complete, consult your instructor for specific parts he/she wants to be included in your research paper. Sample outlines for research papers will be given later on. But first, let us discuss the main parts of your paper and what information each should cover. INTRODUCTION The Introduction should contain your thesis statement or the topic of your research as well as the purpose of your study.

...Liminality and Communitas as new sources of Social Capital in Business Relationship Dynamics Dr Annmarie Ryan, Department of Management and Marketing, Kemmy Business School, University of Limerick, Ireland. Competitive Paper Abstract In this paper I develop a framework for the study of business relationships through the lens of liminality. This is achieved by discussing the work of Turner in relation to rites and rituals and their role in society. Those dimensions of the concept of liminality and communitas that are important for this study therefore include: that it involves interaction outside everyday lived experience; that liminality is constructed and is neither self-evident or naturally occurring; involves the transformation re-discovery and re-appropriation of every day spaces, through separation, or divestiture process, and subsequently (re)incorporated into the everyday through processes of investiture and importantly, incorporates a shared experience that can impact on relations between those who share the experience beyond the event itself. The concept of liminality is offered as a way to enable researchers to understand the interactions between managers in relationships in a new way. The focus of this paper is therefore threefold: 1/ to expand upon the concept of creating, holding and intensifying liminal space and 2/consideration of the effect of this on the organisation and 3/ reflection on this on-going entering into and leaving of liminal space...

...room lights, on at odd hours. The sound of powerful taps on a screen. Bleary eyes scanning the screen, rapid fusion of disparate information, brain whirring in a consistent, cyclic process. These actions form the substance of research; the substance of my identity. I was diagnosed with hyperactive and inattentive ADHD as a child, resulting in unfocused daydreaming, mental and physical restlessness, isolation in test rooms and being singled out in classrooms. Severe ADHD was an enormous burden for a child to experience and dare to succeed with, especially when nobody other than my parents, and my cousin Ha, truly understood me. While other children constructed life in coloring books and playgrounds, I used paper, markers, and my imagination to shape North Atlantic Coasts. Spending hours searching up everything from the strength of Typhoon Tip to the event horizon of black holes – books and research became the only devices that could quell the uncontrollable energy inside....

My parents also went to a lot of Beach & Shag music events and every once in a while I went along too. One of the events I remember going to was the Beach Musical Festival held at the Metrolina Fairgrounds....

...In any situation you have to make the best decision for the organization without compromising your own morals and values. This paper will discuss the ethical dilemmas in these organizations and my decisions of The Case of the Mysterious Roses and The Case of the Cold Feet. The Case of the Mysterious Roses In this simulation I was the Director of Sales in the organization. I received an email from my administrative assistant and a work colleague in the organization telling me of an employee Gayle Dornier, receiving flowers from an anonymous person. The person that sends me the email assumes it is another employee sending the roses. Bill Witherspoon, a Research Scientist who also works in the company sends me an email informing me of him and Gayle’s work relationship and asking me to be lenient on Gayle because of issues she is going through. The next email I receive is from Gayle asking to speak with me in confidence but doesn’t disclose to me the reason for the meeting. The ethical issue is for me to determine how I can ensure Gayle can talk about what happened while still meeting my responsibility as a manager and to treat all employees fairly in an investigation. The next step was to determine who is directly involved and would be affected the most based on my decision. I chose the primary stakeholders to be the Shareholders, Carol Tempest, the Vice President of Human Resources, myself, Gayle Dornier the person receiving the roses, Bill Witherspoon, he may be the source...
