Export Unlimited (EU) – Exporting Apples to Taiwan
Part I
It is your first day at work and you are already confused. Export Unlimited (EU), one of the world’s largest shipping companies, has just hired you. EU ships goods all around the world by ocean, air, and train. It has offices in many cities in the United States and in other countries. You have been hired to work in EU’s Seattle office as an “Account Executive” for refrigerated goods. That is, you are hired to manage perishable goods (like apples or cherries) that need to be shipped from Seattle in refrigerated containers. It has been a quiet first day until your boss gives you the first big assignment. “Apples are one of Washington State’s biggest crops,” your boss says, “and I want EU to ship more apples to other countries. I want you to focus on Taiwan. One week from today, I want you to give me a marketing plan about what you are going to do to help EU carry more apples to Taiwan. If you have a good plan, you will receive a $10,000 bonus.” You think to yourself, “Now what?” You don’t have the first idea how EU could carry more apples to Taiwan.
What should you do? You decide to do some research.
You speak to other people in the office to learn what they know about shipping apples.
You e-mail Bruce Lee, EU’s sales representative in New Taipei, Taiwan, and ask him about EU’s business in Taiwan.
You use the Internet and the library to learn more about exports from Washington State.
You read everything you can find at the office about EU’s history and its business.
It takes a few days, but you finally are able to answer your three questions:
What does EU do to get apples from Seattle to Taiwan?
You learned that EU sends three ships a week from Seattle to New Taipei, Taiwan: one on Monday, one on Tuesday, and one on Friday. Because some of these ships go to other places first, one ship each week takes 21 days to get to Taiwan.

DUE FRIDAY, JUNE 19TH
As previously stated, focus on a good introduction (the end goal should be no less than five well-written paragraphs of introduction), not on a complete abstract. The thesis statement should be one sentence in the introduction of the paper that defines what you seek to show by your research. When you write your abstract for the final draft, it will look slightly different. It should be included as a separate page. An academic abstract typically outlines four elements relevant to the completed work:
. The research focus (i.e. statement of the problem(s)/research issue(s) addressed)
. Your approach to the problem (biblical worldview, implications of issue)
. The results/findings of the research
. The main conclusions and recommendations
As you can see from my description, you will not be able to write a good abstract until most of your research and writing are completed. After this week, leave a placeholder for the abstract and work on a good introduction to your topic.
Remember Turabian format in every assignment that you submit. While I try to be lenient, I want you to get into the habit of documenting your sources properly. It is a good habit in research. If you run into difficulties, please ask for clarification.

Expository Essay Topics For Grade 10
Here are a few sociological theories that could help explain career criminality among African Americans:
- Strain theory: Systemic racism and lack of economic opportunities may cause strain and frustration that leads some African Americans into criminal careers seeking money and status. The strain of poverty, discrimination, and blocked opportunities exerts pressure that some relieve through crime.
- Social disorganization theory: Communities impacted by poverty, residential instability, and ethnic/racial heterogeneity tend to have weaker social controls, which some sociologists argue allows criminal behaviors and gangs to flourish more easily. Many African American neighborhoods have faced these issues due to historical and ongoing discrimination.
- Subcultural theory: Some African American communities may develop subcultures that

The passage discusses pet health insurance and increasing veterinary costs. It notes that pet health insurance reimburses owners for expenses rather than paying providers directly like human insurance. While cheaper than human plans, veterinary costs have risen in recent decades due to new technology and treatments now available for pets. These include echocardiography, CT scans, cancer treatments, and joint replacements, previously only options for humans. The rising costs and new treatments make pet health insurance more appealing for owners to offset veterinary bills.

This document discusses Queen Elizabeth's treatment of Catholics in England following the Protestant Reformation. While her predecessor Queen Mary had ruthlessly persecuted Protestants, Elizabeth adopted a more cautious policy toward Catholicism. She did not seem to truly care about her subjects' religious beliefs as long as they kept them private. Catholics received lighter punishments than under Mary, though fines were imposed on those who did not attend Church of England services. Priests faced imprisonment for publicly criticizing the Book of Common Prayer or not following Anglican rites. Overall, Elizabeth pursued a relatively tolerant stance toward Catholicism compared to Mary's persecution of Protestants.

As previously stated, focus on a good introduction (the end goal should be no less than five well-written paragraphs of introduction), not on a complete abstract. The thesis statement should be one sentence in the introduction of the paper that defines what you seek to show by your research. When you write your abstract for the final draft, it will look slightly different. It should be included as a separate page. An academic abstract typically outlines four elements relevant to the completed work:
. The research focus (i.e. statement of the problem(s)/research issue(s) addressed)
. Your approach to the problem (biblical worldview, implications of issue)
. The results/findings of the research
. The main conclusions and recommendations
As you can see from my description, you will not be able to write a good abstract until most of your research and writing are completed. After this week, leave a placeholder for the abstract and work on a good introduction to your topic.
Remember Turabian format in every assignment that you submit. While I try to be lenient, I want you to get into the habit of documenting your sources properly. It is a good habit in research. If you run into difficulties, please ask for clarification.

Expository Essay Topics For Grade 10
Here are a few sociological theories that could help explain career criminality among African Americans:
- Strain theory: Systemic racism and lack of economic opportunities may cause strain and frustration that leads some African Americans into criminal careers seeking money and status. The strain of poverty, discrimination, and blocked opportunities exerts pressure that some relieve through crime.
- Social disorganization theory: Communities impacted by poverty, residential instability, and ethnic/racial heterogeneity tend to have weaker social controls, which some sociologists argue allows criminal behaviors and gangs to flourish more easily. Many African American neighborhoods have faced these issues due to historical and ongoing discrimination.
- Subcultural theory: Some African American communities may develop subcultures that

Essay On Active Listening Skills
The passage discusses pet health insurance and increasing veterinary costs. It notes that pet health insurance reimburses owners for expenses rather than paying providers directly like human insurance. While cheaper than human plans, veterinary costs have risen in recent decades due to new technology and treatments now available for pets. These include echocardiography, CT scans, cancer treatments, and joint replacements, previously only options for humans. The rising costs and new treatments make pet health insurance more appealing for owners to offset veterinary bills.

This document discusses Queen Elizabeth's treatment of Catholics in England following the Protestant Reformation. While her predecessor Queen Mary had ruthlessly persecuted Protestants, Elizabeth adopted a more cautious policy toward Catholicism. She did not seem to truly care about her subjects' religious beliefs as long as they kept them private. Catholics received lighter punishments than under Mary, though fines were imposed on those who did not attend Church of England services. Priests faced imprisonment for publicly criticizing the Book of Common Prayer or not following Anglican rites. Overall, Elizabeth pursued a relatively tolerant stance toward Catholicism compared to Mary's persecution of Protestants.

Artificial Intelligence for XMLDevelopment
In the rapidly evolving landscape of technologies, XML continues to play a vital role in structuring, storing, and transporting data across diverse systems. The recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) present new methodologies for enhancing XML development workflows, introducing efficiency, automation, and intelligent capabilities. This presentation will outline the scope and perspective of utilizing AI in XML development. The potential benefits and the possible pitfalls will be highlighted, providing a balanced view of the subject.
We will explore the capabilities of AI in understanding XML markup languages and autonomously creating structured XML content. Additionally, we will examine the capacity of AI to enrich plain text with appropriate XML markup. Practical examples and methodological guidelines will be provided to elucidate how AI can be effectively prompted to interpret and generate accurate XML markup.
Further emphasis will be placed on the role of AI in developing XSLT, or schemas such as XSD and Schematron. We will address the techniques and strategies adopted to create prompts for generating code, explaining code, or refactoring the code, and the results achieved.
The discussion will extend to how AI can be used to transform XML content. In particular, the focus will be on the use of AI XPath extension functions in XSLT, Schematron, Schematron Quick Fixes, or for XML content refactoring.
The presentation aims to deliver a comprehensive overview of AI usage in XML development, providing attendees with the necessary knowledge to make informed decisions. Whether you’re at the early stages of adopting AI or considering integrating it in advanced XML development, this presentation will cover all levels of expertise.
By highlighting the potential advantages and challenges of integrating AI with XML development tools and languages, the presentation seeks to inspire thoughtful conversation around the future of XML development. We’ll not only delve into the technical aspects of AI-powered XML development but also discuss practical implications and possible future directions.
