...Sahana Natesan AP USH Mr. Maoriello – Period 6 5 April 2015 7. What were the major “Reforms” (permanent programs) of the New Deal? Legacy of the New Deal? Success/Impact? Historians have concluded that the New Deal was both a success and a failure from different perspectives. On the one hand, the New Deal succeeded in promoting ideas of relief by helping millions of people with their mortgage and with finding jobs. Furthermore, public works programs like the PWA resulted in the construction of valuable infrastructures such as roads, airports, schools and dams and the TVA regulated the use of electricity to eliminate corruption and incompetent book keeping. The New Deal also ensured that the people had equal rights by inventing the concept...

...before the 1920's had to deal with the blatant attack on freedom of speech and press led on by president Woodrow Wilson's administration, and it left them too afraid or unwilling to speak their minds. As a result rarely was the news delivered noteworthy, and too many Americans were left generally uniformed. Once the press finally did recover from the suppressive Wilson administration, the economy simultaneously experienced a great advance. With Warren G. Harding, a former journalist, as president now and the oppressive Wilson out of the picture it was an ideal time for the press to experiment (Daly 178-190). Luce and Hadden met each other when they were just young boys attending Hotchkiss boarding school in Connecticut. Though their relationship was incredibly competitive from the very beginning and their conflicting attitudes led them to work together with an effective energy. Neither of them came from much money, but that didn't matter so much as they made friends that had plenty. Endowed with the great ability of drive and dedication. Enthusiastic and confident in their ideas, failure had never been an option for anything they did (Daly 190-192). After Hotchkiss they went to Yale together, then became reporters for Frank Mensey's Baltimore News. It was at this time that they began developing their ideas for Time magazine. They saw that the American people were generally uniformed. The plan for their new magazine would address that by taking pieces of news, gathering...

...Renova Toilet Paper: Avant-garde Marketing in a Commoditized Category 06/2010-5685 This case was written by Raquel Seabra de Sousa, INSEAD MBA 2009 and consultant with BCG, under the supervision of Yakov Bart, Assistant Professor of Marketing, Pierre Chandon, Associate Professor of Marketing, and Steven Sweldens, Assistant Professor of Marketing, all at INSEAD. The video material was produced by Shellie Karabell and Julian Boudier from INSEAD. It is intended to be used as a basis for class discussion rather than to illustrate either effective or ineffective handling of an administrative situation.

Las Vegas, New York-New York Hotel and Casino: Paulo Pereira da Silva, the Swiss-trained physicist and CEO of Renova, a privately-owned Portuguese paper company, was attending a performance of Zumanity, the for-adults-only Cirque du Soleil production, together with Luis Saramago, the company’s marketing director. Watching the trapeze artists holding on to black fabric stripes, Paulo Pereira da Silva thought about Renova’s own artsy advertising campaigns showing nude men and stripes of Renova toilet paper. This is how he first came up with the idea of black toilet paper. Black toilet paper? To see how far-fetched the idea is, bear in mind that toilet paper is a highly commoditized category with sluggish growth and little innovation...

...prison, but most are reluctant to know that this island served as fort. Built before the Civil War, it served two main purposes. First, that it was to guard the San Francisco bay area from enemy ships against a foreign invasion, and second, to hold hostage prisoners of war or POW's as they were called. In this report, I'll show you how this fortress came to be a federal prison, why it is no longer in operation today, and most importantly, to show why it was built in the first place. When the great Gold Rush of 1849 first started, California grew from what would be considered a small, unpopulated state, into what it is now. California is now one of the most populated states and it was mostly the gold rush that brought attention to California. As the government saw all of this happening, they realized that California was much more important than they ever realized. In their realization, they decided that California must be protected. San Francisco has one of the largest bays in all of California, and so this was where enemy countries would most likely to try to invade the country. So this is where Alcatraz was to lie, to serve as a military fort. It was supposed to serve as a secondary base in companionship to another base located on the other side of Golden Gate Bridge. But with severe problems trying to build this other base, Alcatraz was to remain alone. Out in the middle of the San Francisco Bay, the island of Alcatraz is definitely a world unto itself. Isolation is just one of...

Key words: clinical telehealth, videoconferencing, literature review, quality of service Introduction Abstract Videoconferencing technologies can vastly expand the reach of healthcare practitioners by providing patients (particularly those in rural/remote areas) with unprecedented access to services. While this represents a fundamental shift in the way that healthcare professionals care for their patients, very little is known about the impact of these technologies on clinical workflow practices and interprofessional collaboration. In order to better understand this, we have conducted a focused literature review, with the aim of providing policymakers, administrators, and healthcare professionals with an evidence-based foundation for decision-making. A total of 397 articles focused on videoconferencing in clinical contexts were retrieved, with 225 used to produce this literature review. Literature in the fields...

...There is no one date that can be said to mark the beginning of the greatest of global conflicts. In 1931, the Japanese army invaded Manchuria, a northern province of China. In July 1937, the Japanese moved again, this time directly against the Nationalist regime of Chiang Kai-shek. The atrocities that followed shocked the world. Meanwhile, in 1936, German Chancellor Adolf Hitler moved aggressively into the Rhineland, previously a demilitarized zone, and in 1938, he incorporated Czechoslovakia and Austria into the Third Reich. By this time, the Western world was fully alert to the menace of the fanatically ambitious and confident Fuhrer. Then, in the early morning hours of September 1, 1939, Hitler sent his armies into Poland. Two days later, France and Great Britain declared war on Germany. Within a matter of weeks the Soviet Union, which had recently signed a non-aggression treaty with Hitler, attacked Poland from the east. Within a month, Polish resistance collapsed, and Warsaw fell. World War II had begun. In general, the American people did not want to have any part in a European war. They felt protected by great oceans on both sides of the North American continent. And they felt that, in World War I, American boys had fought and bled in France mostly to make fortunes for munitions makers and arms merchants. Moreover, the United States had allowed its armed forces to wither in the 1920s and 1930, so that when World War II broke out in Europe, its army of 190,000 men ranked...

In 1941, that film was Orson Welles’s Citizen Kane. Welles produced, directed, wrote, and starred in the movie at age twenty-five, playing a newspaper magnate from a young man to old age. While the movie was not a commercial success initially (powerful newspaper publisher William Randolph Hearst, whose life was the inspiration for the movie, tried to suppress it), it was critically praised for its acting, story, and directing. Citizen Kane’s dramatic camera angles, striking film noir–style lighting, nonlinear storytelling, montages, and long deep-focus shots were considered technically innovative for the era. Over time, Citizen Kane became revered as a masterpiece, and in 1997 the American Film Institute named it the Greatest American Movie of All Time. “Citizen Kane is more than a great movie; it is a gathering of all the lessons of the emerging era of sound,” film critic Roger Ebert wrote.1 CHAPTER 6 ○ MOVIES 185 (c) Bedford/St. Martin's bedfordstmartins.com 1-457-62096-0 / 978-1-457-62096-6 MOVIES A generation later...
