0 likes•140 views
Mark is described as someone who brags about outearning and outperforming others, especially immigrants, but who is actually quite spoiled. He had ambitions of using science to improve lives but hadn't improved his own. The narrator took Mark to experience urban America, but Mark kept trying to justify things "scientifically" rather than open his mind. The story questions Mark's boasts about his future success and sees his views as narrow and prejudiced rather than the "3D" perspective he claimed to have.

Adolescent Psych
The document summarizes the portrayal of sexuality in music from 1958 to 2008 and on television from the 1950s-60s to today. It provides examples of lyrics from 1958 that imply sexuality subtly and from 2008 that reference sexual acts more explicitly.

22 intriguing truths about temperance lance council
Temperance Lance-Council has had an intriguing and varied life and career. She founded a club to defend Mike Tyson during his legal issues, ran marathons to protest apartheid while writing activist poems, and was offered jobs at Playboy and in Hollywood. She has appeared on television shows, been bullied in school, turned down marriage proposals, started a band, and acted since childhood, receiving standing ovations. She has experienced both successes and rejections throughout her life.
Section 6 ben & george
The document discusses how during the 1920s, the younger generation rejected the moral code of their elders. As it took time to establish new values and morals to replace the old ones, the 1920s became a decade without manners or happiness. Since the youth had overthrown the previous moral system but not replaced it, they sought short-lived pleasures to fill the void, leaving many unhappy and feeling that life had no meaning. A list of references on 1920s culture and the changing social values of the time is also included.
Nagai Kafū
Nagai Kafu was a Japanese author born in 1879 in Tokyo. He came from a comfortable background but was not a diligent student. His father sent him abroad to the United States due to being displeased with his unconventional path. Kafu spent over four years in the US and also traveled to France. Many of his early works such as Tales of America focused on his experiences abroad and observations of other cultures. Kafu had a changing style throughout his career, being influenced by individualism from the US and traditionalism from France. He was a literary contrarian who was critical of Japanese westernization.
Media
The document discusses two categories of music videos - those with political themes and those that follow the style of U.S. film musicals. It analyzes Lady Gaga's "Bad Romance" music video, noting that it brings awareness to the serious issue of sex trafficking by depicting her character being forced to do things against her will while under the influence of drugs. The video uses symbolic elements like a white room and her large eyes to convey her innocence and that she has been drugged. In the end, her character finds resolution by killing her "owner," though this is not a morally correct solution, it provides relief to audiences that she has escaped.

Representations of california
This document discusses different representations of California and how they compare to locals' views. It uses Aristotle's framework to analyze representations of California as having an object, manner, and means. Some common representations like sunny weather and surfing are partially accurate but don't capture the full reality. Other representations like ubiquitous gang violence and movie stars are misleading. The document suggests locals prefer representations highlighting California's skiing, hiking, fishing and farming industries that outsiders may not be aware of. It concludes that not all representations are fully true and the best way to understand California is to experience it firsthand.

[READ]Why Cities Lose: The Deep Roots of the Urban-Rural Political DividebyJo...
A prizewinning political scientist traces the origins of urban-rural political conflict and shows how geography shapes elections in America and beyond
Why is it so much easier for the Democratic Party to win the national popular vote than to build and maintain a majority in Congress? Why can Democrats sweep statewide offices in places like Pennsylvania and Michigan yet fail to take control of the same states' legislatures? Many place exclusive blame on partisan gerrymandering and voter suppression. But as political scientist Jonathan A. Rodden demonstrates in Why Cities Lose, the left's electoral challenges have deeper roots in economic and political geography.In the late nineteenth century, support for the left began to cluster in cities among the industrial working class. Today, left-wing parties have become coalitions of diverse urban interest groups, from racial minorities to the creative class. These parties win big in urban districts but struggle to capture the suburban and

Political cartoon
This document analyzes and summarizes a political cartoon by Anna Baldwin depicting President Obama milking a thin cow labeled the "U.S. Treasury". The cartoon uses metaphor and exaggeration to express the author's view that President Obama has put the country in too much debt through unnecessary spending. It examines how the cartoon employs pathos by showing the cow's discomfort, ethos by portraying the author's knowledge of the country's financial situation, and logos by referencing issues of national debt that people encounter daily. However, the summary notes that the cartoon only shows one viewpoint and lacks facts or statistics to fully support its argument.

Immigrant life
This book is dedicated to my parents who made the utmost sacrifice and supported me in my journey to the United States at the age of 15. Without my two loving parents I would not be where I am today; a tenured High School History Teacher working in the most impoverished neighborhood in New York City, the South Bronx, where I help students that dropped out of high school achieve their goal and receive a high school diploma. The reason that I feel like I am in the right place for my job is because just like these "lost" students, I was going through a tough transition myself as I left my impoverished 3rd world country and decided to embark on a journey by myself across the ocean for a better opportunity. The toughest students are sometimes the best ones because they either have a goal in mind and they want to succeed, or they are not ready and are very honest with themselves and their teacher and decided that education is not in their cards at that moment of time. I feel that these students are marginalized from society because of their socioeconomic status and it is important that they realize that there is light at the end of tunnel, just like for me my parents decided to leave their pretty cushy jobs to try and support me and my brother in the United States. That is why I decided to publish this book, to show that in each of one there is hope for a better future and we must take in account that life will not always be easy and will throw unexpected moments our way.

m249-saw PMI To familiarize the soldier with the M249 Squad Automatic Weapon ...
M249 Saw marksman PMIThe Squad Automatic Weapon (SAW), or 5.56mm M249 is an individually portable, gas operated, magazine or disintegrating metallic link-belt fed, light machine gun with fixed headspace and quick change barrel feature. The M249 engages point targets out to 800 meters, firing the improved NATO standard 5.56mm cartridge. The SAW forms the basis of firepower for the fire team. The gunner has the option of using 30-round M16 magazines or linked ammunition from pre-loaded 200-round plastic magazines. The gunner's basic load is 600 rounds of linked ammunition. The SAW was developed through an initially Army-led research and development effort and eventually a Joint NDO program in the late 1970s/early 1980s to restore sustained and accurate automatic weapons fire to the fire team and squad. When actually fielded in the mid-1980s, the SAW was issued as a one-for-one replacement for the designated "automatic rifle" (M16A1) in the Fire Team. In this regard, the SAW filled the void created by the retirement of the Browning Automatic Rifle (BAR) during the 1950s because interim automatic weapons (e.g. M-14E2/M16A1) had failed as viable "base of fire" weapons.
Early in the SAW's fielding, the Army identified the need for a Product Improvement Program (PIP) to enhance the weapon. This effort resulted in a "PIP kit" which modifies the barrel, handguard, stock, pistol grip, buffer, and sights.
The M249 machine gun is an ideal complementary weapon system for the infantry squad platoon. It is light enough to be carried and operated by one man, and can be fired from the hip in an assault, even when loaded with a 200-round ammunition box. The barrel change facility ensures that it can continue to fire for long periods. The US Army has conducted strenuous trials on the M249 MG, showing that this weapon has a reliability factor that is well above that of most other small arms weapon systems. Today, the US Army and Marine Corps utilize the license-produced M249 SAW.
From Concept to reality : Implementing Lean Managements DMAIC Methodology for...
The Ready-Made Garments (RMG) industry in Bangladesh is a cornerstone of the economy, but increasing costs and stagnant productivity pose significant challenges to profitability. This study explores the implementation of Lean Management in the Sampling Section of RMG factories to enhance productivity. Drawing from a comprehensive literature review, theoretical framework, and action research methodology, the study identifies key areas for improvement and proposes solutions.
Through the DMAIC approach (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control), the research identifies low productivity as the primary problem in the Sampling Section, with a PPH (Productivity per head) of only 4.0. Using Lean Management techniques such as 5S, Standardized work, PDCA/Kaizen, KANBAN, and Quick Changeover, the study addresses issues such as pre and post Quick Changeover (QCO) time, improper line balancing, and sudden plan changes.
The research employs regression analysis to test hypotheses, revealing a significant correlation between reducing QCO time and increasing productivity. With a regression equation of Y = -0.000501X + 6.72 and an R-squared value of 0.98, the study demonstrates a strong relationship between the independent variables (QCO downtime and improper line balancing downtime) and the dependent variable (productivity per head).
The findings suggest that by implementing Lean Management practices and addressing key productivity inhibitors, RMG factories can achieve substantial improvements in efficiency and profitability. The study provides valuable insights for practitioners, policymakers, and researchers seeking to enhance productivity in the RMG industry and similar manufacturing sectors.

2. Bad Hiring/Promotions & Broken Promises: It reveals the detrimental effects of poor hiring and promotion decisions, along with the erosion of trust that results from broken promises.
3. Treating Everyone Equally & Tolerating Poor Performance: This section stresses the need for fair treatment while acknowledging that employees have different needs. It also emphasizes the importance of addressing poor performance promptly.
4. Stifling Growth & Lack of Interest: The presentation highlights the importance of providing opportunities for learning and growth, as well as showing genuine care for employees' well-being.
5. Unclear Communication & Micromanaging: It exposes the frustration and resentment caused by vague expectations and excessive control, advocating for clear communication and employee empowerment.
The presentation then shifts its focus to the power of recognition and empowerment, highlighting how a culture of appreciation can fuel engagement and motivation. It provides actionable takeaways for managers, emphasizing the need to stop demotivating behaviors and start actively fostering a positive workplace culture.
The presentation concludes with a strong call to action, encouraging viewers to explore the accompanying blog post, "9 Proven Ways to Crush Employee Morale (and How to Avoid Them)," for a more in-depth analysis and practical solutions.

Customer Relationship Managemenet’s Impact on Customer Satisfaction and Perfo...Istanbul Beykent University (İstanbul Beykent Üniversitesi)
Many companies have perceived CRM that accompanied by numerous
uncoordinated initiatives as a technological solution for problems in
individual areas. However, CRM should be considered as a strategy when
a company decides to implement it due to its humanitarian, technological
and process-related effects (Mendoza et al., 2007, p. 913). CRM is
evolving today as it should be seen as a strategy for maintaining a longterm relationship with customers.
A CRM business strategy includes the internet with the marketing,
sales, operations, customer services, human resources, R&D, finance, and
information technology departments to achieve the company’s purpose and
maximize the profitability of customer interactions (Chen and Popovich,
2003, p. 673).
After Corona Virus Disease-2019/Covid-19 (Coronavirus) first
appeared in Wuhan, China towards the end of 2019, its effects began to
be felt clearly all over the world. If the Coronavirus crisis is not managed
properly in business-to-business (B2B) and business-to-consumer
(B2C) sectors, it can have serious negative consequences. In this crisis,
companies can typically face significant losses in their sales performance,
existing customers and customer satisfaction, interruptions in operations
and accordingly bankruptcyRecently uploaded (9)
