Adverb clauses of concession
This document discusses adverb clauses of concession, which acknowledge an idea is true while asserting a different, more important idea. Common subordinators include "although", "even though", and "despite the fact that". Examples show these clauses conceding a less important point to argue a main point, such as that studying is needed to get good grades despite occasional guessing success. Correct use places the subject in the main clause for clarity.

Still life painting Arts
Still life paintings depict collections of inanimate objects arranged together. They allow viewers to see everyday objects in a new light by capturing them in specific arrangements and through the use of light, shades, and colors. Important early examples include works from the 16th century Dutch painter Georg Flegel and 17th century Spanish painter Francisco de Zurbarán, while Paul Cezanne produced influential still life works in the 19th century. Artists use techniques like modulating light and dark values and tints or shades of color to realistically depict volume and reflect light in the objects.

Computer Animation PowerPoint
Computer animation has positively impacted the movie industry and society. A survey found that 14% of participants prefer animated movies over other genres like action, horror, and comedy. Since computer animation was developed, movies are now mostly computer animated rather than hand drawn. Computer animation has also had a positive impact on society, as 92% of survey respondents agreed. Many modern technologies like TVs, video games, phones, and computers incorporate and rely on computer animation. Without computer animation, there would be no 3D movies, games or graphics, and animation would take much longer and look less realistic.

He told the doctors to treat him as if he was alive, not dead, and chose to live. Jerry's amazing attitude allowed him to survive the incident and recover.
Woman
This document provides encouragement for women by noting that there will always be someone who has something better, like being prettier, smarter, having a bigger house or better car. However, those things don't guarantee happiness. The prettiest woman could be unhappy, the highest achieving woman may not be able to have children, and the richest woman could be lonely. Therefore, women should love themselves for who they are, tell themselves they are blessed, and pass on encouragement to other women.
Lehman Brothers Collapse
Lehman Brothers collapsed because it had significant exposure to subprime mortgages through repackaging and selling mortgage-backed securities globally, and also invested heavily in commercial and residential property whose values plummeted. When Lehman was unable to sell itself due to its toxic assets, its collapse rattled markets and raised fears that other major financial institutions like Merrill Lynch and AIG could also fail.
Seta 3 Perceived Reality
The document discusses the importance of relationship management and attitude in business success. It argues that perceived reality is reality, so one must know what others think before knowing what to do. It then provides steps to evaluate and adjust one's attitude to better manage relationships, including using a "relationship temperature thermometer" to measure perceived reality and make adjustments. It outlines seven "relationship temperature controls" including responding to criticism, empowering others, demonstrating authority versus control, emotional discipline, handling fears, demonstrating compassion, and exhibiting humility.
Selling Techniques
This document provides guidance on successful selling techniques. It discusses the importance of understanding customers, their requirements and satisfaction. It outlines components of a successful sales strategy including being determined, thorough preparation, and having the right mindset. It provides tips for interactions with customers such as properly greeting them, using the right sales pitch for their nature, having a compassionate attitude, properly closing interactions and obtaining referrals. It also gives advice for handling difficult customers through listening more than talking and showing patience.
Second Thoughts Give & Receive
A student suggested playing a trick on a poor field worker by hiding his shoes. However, his professor suggested a kinder alternative - to leave a coin in each shoe. They hid and watched as the worker discovered the coins, overcome with gratitude and relief that the money would help his sick wife and hungry children. The student was deeply moved, realizing the lesson that it is better to give than to receive.
Seat Belts
A passenger in the front seat of a car failed to fasten their seatbelt while the driver did fasten theirs. When an impact occurred, the driver, protected by their seatbelt, survived while the unrestrained passenger did not. The message emphasizes how taking the time to wear a seatbelt can save your life in the event of an accident.
Sales Training
There is a need for more efficient training in auto dealerships due to high turnover rates and changing business needs. Several case studies show how companies like AutoNation, Toyota, and Volvo have successfully implemented eLearning programs to provide standardized, scalable training across their large, distributed workforces. An effective eLearning program requires determining training needs, developing a clear business case showing cost savings, selecting an appropriate learning management system, and measuring performance improvements.
Sales Strategy
The document summarizes a webcast discussing effective sales and distribution strategies for software as a service (SaaS) firms. Representatives from three SaaS companies - Salesnet, Intacct, and HSS - presented their approaches to go-to-market strategies, selling value propositions, sales organizations, and customer support. They discussed opportunities and challenges of the SaaS model. The webcast was moderated by TripleTree to provide C-level perspectives on executing SaaS sales and distribution.
Rich Poor
The father took his wealthy son on a trip to experience how poor people live. They stayed with a poor family on their farm for a few days. When they returned, the father asked the son what he learned. The son said that while they have many luxuries, the poor family had friends and a sense of community to rely on. He thanked his father for teaching him how poor they really are by comparison. Having a new perspective on appreciating what you have is important.
Sales Promotion
This document discusses sales promotion and personal selling. It defines sales promotion as driving immediate purchases or influencing behavior through consumer promotions like coupons or trade promotions like rebates for retailers. Personal selling involves directly communicating with qualified prospects to obtain sales and customer satisfaction. The key steps in the selling process are generating leads, qualifying leads, presenting solutions, handling objections, closing the sale, and following up. Sales management responsibilities include evaluating, compensating, recruiting, and training the sales force.
Quality Customer Service
This document discusses the importance of providing excellent customer service. It emphasizes that customers should feel special and respected. Some key aspects of good customer service highlighted include listening to customers, building rapport, having a positive attitude, addressing customer needs, and making a great first impression within the first 15 seconds of interaction. The goal is to ensure customers have positive experiences and spread positive word of mouth about the organization.
Put The Glass Down
The professor holds up a glass of water in class and asks students to guess its weight, which varies, but all agree it does not change. He then asks what would happen if he held it up for longer periods - his arm would ache after an hour and go numb after a day. Though the weight did not change, the stress of holding it up for long periods is what caused the issues. The professor concludes that problems in life are like the glass - they seem manageable at first but holding them in your mind for too long can paralyze you. It is important to "put the glass down" by not stressing over problems when you go to sleep, so you can handle challenges fresh each new day.
Pushforlife 1
A man was instructed by God to push against a large rock each day. Though he pushed with all his might, the rock did not move. Satan tried to discourage the man by suggesting he stop pushing, but the man prayed instead. God told the man that his task was to push the rock in obedience, not to move it, and that through his efforts the man had grown stronger. God would now move the rock for the man.
Punishing Ur Boss
The document instructs the reader to use a mouse to click on arrows to release frustration and to change weapons by clicking on a hand icon.
Paradigm
Scientists placed monkeys in a cage with a ladder containing bananas. Any monkey climbing the ladder would cause all monkeys to be sprayed with cold water. Over time, monkeys stopped climbing the ladder and instead beat up any monkey that tried, even if they had never been sprayed themselves. This demonstrated how paradigms and traditions can form and be passed down without understanding the original reasoning.
Positive Attitude
The document provides tips for staying positive in a negative work environment, such as one where coworkers are competitive and hostile. It warns of potential dangers like bullying behaviors and references using past experiences to develop strategies for maintaining a positive outlook despite challenges. The summary encourages determining ways to rise above negativity and cultivate a constructive mindset.
Organisational Communication
Organisational communication is important for any structured group to function effectively and achieve common goals. There are different types of communication in an organization, including verbal, non-verbal, upward, downward, and crosswise communication. Upward communication involves communicating with higher-ups, while downward communication involves communicating policies, decisions, targets, and feedback from top-down. Crosswise communication refers to communicating with colleagues laterally. Effective organizational communication requires understanding different perspectives, giving and receiving feedback, and resolving issues through discussion rather than argument.
One Of Those Days
The narrator had a very unlucky morning, first tripping and hitting his head, then burning his tongue from hot coffee and getting an electric shock from the toaster. Things got worse when he received a call at work that their office had been broken into and computers and documents were stolen. While upset by the news, he spilled coffee on himself, and taking a cold shower to calm down only made the unlucky day worse.
Old Age Is A Gift
The author expresses that old age is a gift and that they have become the person they've always wanted to be, despite physical changes. While their body shows signs of aging, they value the friends, family, and life they've built. They feel free to indulge and live life as they choose. The author has come to appreciate life's lessons of compassion that come with broken hearts and experiences over the years. They are grateful for all they've laughed and lived.

7 Habits of Highly Effective People.pptx
Covey says most people look for quick fixes. They see a big success and want to know how he did it, believing (and hoping) they can do the same following a quick bullet list.
But real change, the author says, comes not from the outside in, but from the inside out. And the most fundamental way of changing yourself is through a paradigm shift.
That paradigm shift is a new way of looking at the world. The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People presents an approach to effectiveness based on character and principles.
The first three habits indeed deal with yourself because it all starts with you. The first three habits move you from dependence from the world to the independence of making your own world.
Habits 4, 5 and 6 are about people and relationships. The will move you from independence to interdependence. Such, cooperating to achieve more than you could have by yourself.
The last habit, habit number 7, focuses on continuous growth and improvement.

Great Escape
- 1. by Robin Klein The Great Escape
- 2. I often wonder what they'd say if one day I ran away Packed my gear and duffel coat, left a brief and simple note Took my Walkman radio set – Would they worry? Would they fret? They deserve it - serves them right! Crikey! Nicked off, on this cold and stormy night! things A heavy woollen cloth be upset Expression used to show surprise Sneaked away
- 3. “ He might not come home for years!” (My mum, in tears.) “ Oh, we're sorry, oh, we're sad!” (My gloomy dad.) Yep! Packed my snorkel, packed my dog – “ Out in this bleak mist and fog? Where will the poor kid be sleeping?” (My brother, weeping.) "Oh, my heart with grief is throbbing!” (My nana, sobbing.) miserable miserable
- 4. They can wail and bawl for ever, I won't come back here - no never! Packed my beanie, black and red, Star Wars blanket off my bed. "Oh, I hope he's safe and well." (My melancholy Auntie Nell.) Tear-filled eyes and snivelling faces – too late now, I'm going places! a small skullcap sad weeping to cry very loudly and energetically high pitched cry
- 5. “ Gone? Good riddance! Hip hooray! He's made my day! Hope he starves, the little creep. Whoopee! Now his room is mine to keep!" (My sister, braying.) A remark which shows you are glad to be free of somebody or something Give (someone) great pleasure Laugh or talk in an annoying way Also the sound donkeys make Somebody disliked/obnoxious
- 6. That's it - I'm staying!
