- 1271: The Promotion of Products and People
- The Promotion of Products and People What are the differences between Coca-Cola and corporate executives? Or better yet, what are their similarities? According to Scott Charles and John T. Molloy, the chief similarity or common ground between them is the need to appeal to an audience. Even though their audiences may very, they still must be taken into account when they are trying ... bystander would definitely question the man’s ethics and would wonder if he were trying to insult the black man’s cultural background. This is, however, exactly what Coke is doing, and nobody thinks twice. John T. Molloy also thinks image is very important for a company. In fact, he helps companies find the proper clothing for their employees to help persuade customers into purchasing their product (Molloy 417). Molloy says ... Mortimer, J. Phegley, K. R. Wallace, eds. Writing Lives: Exploring Literacy and Community. New York: St. Martin’s Press, 1996. Charles, Scott. “Always Real: Coke Chillin’ in The Hood.” Garnes et al. 352 – 56.

- 1272: Corporate Development During the Industrial Revolution
- Corporate Development During the Industrial Revolution The Standard Oil Company founded by John D. Rockefeller and the U.S. Steel Company founded by Andrew Carnegie. The Standard Oil Company and U.S. Steel Company were made successful in different ways due to the actions of their different owners ... companies cost too much and were inefficient. By doing this he was able to undersell his competetors because they had to pay the competitors they went through to get the raw materials. Unlike Andrew Carnegie, John D. Rockefeller integrated his oil business from top to bottom, his distinctive innovation in movement of American industry was horizontal. This meant he followed one product through all its stages. For example, rockrfeller controlled the ... the refining process turning it into gasoline. Although these two powerful men used two different methods of management their businesses were still very successful (Conlin, 425-426). Tycoons like Andrew Carnegie, "the steel king," and John D. Rockefeller, "the oil baron," exercised their genius in devising ways to circument competition. Although, Carnegie inclined to be tough-fisted in business, he was not a monopolist and disliked monopolistic trusts. John D. ...

- 1274: Creative Writing: My Grandfather
- ... of Dallas. He then moved to California and moved back to Texas to live with his grandparents for times when his mother couldn't have him stay with her. His mother married a man named John and they moved to New Mexico. There he lived on a dude ranch his step-father was building, and he got to ride horses a lot. His chores there were to strip trees to help build buildings, and he took care of the horses. He later did chores around the house. He moved out of New Mexico after John got killed by lightning. They lived in the poor part of the city. The thing he remembers most about his mother is that she was a free spirit. His dad left when he was three because he couldn't take care of any one, not even himself. He recalled that John told lots of tall stories; something that grandpa does often. His first school was in California and it was a two room school house. He had to walk home and there were water snakes ...
- 1275: Technological Literacy
- ... educational debate about pedagogy and CMC, and provide some generic practical strategies for a technological literacy that can be adapted to a variety of learner needs, interests and abilities in the adult literacy classroom . PEDAGOGY John and Crajek are men in their forties and recent arrivals to Australia. Somehow they struck a friendship early in the term and it turns out they both have a keen interest in volcanoes and meteorology. Crajek was a geography teacher before he came to Australia and John has always considered himself a bit of an amateur vulcanologist. Each day, as soon as they arrive in class, they sit at one computer together and head `out' to NASA's web site where they ... quick scan of a few active volcanoes and get printouts of graphic and text information of any latest developments. After morning tea, the class regroups for the daily `global weather report' and volcano update by John and Crajek who give an oral, OHT and blackboard presentation of the web searched information. The teacher in this class is committed to getting all her students reading, writing and speaking on topics of ...
- 1276: The History and Development of Computers
- ... the ensuing years, several engineers made other significant advances. Vannevar Bush, developed a calculator for solving differential equations in 1931. The machine could solve complex differential equations that had long left scientists and mathematicians confused. John V. Atanasoff a professor at Iowa State College and his graduate student, Clifford Berry, envisioned an all-electronic computer that applied Boolean algebra to computer circuitry. Atanasoff and Berry had developed the first all-electronic ... tubes, 70,000 resistors and 5 million soldered joints, the computer was such a massive piece of machinery that it consumed enough energy to dim the lights in an entire section of Philadelphia. Developed by John Presper Eckert and John W. Mauchly, ENIAC, unlike the Colossus, was a general-purpose computer that computed at faster speeds. In the mid-1940's John Von Neumann joined the University of Pennsylvania team, initiating concepts in computer ...
- 1277: Computers
- ... the machine on a roll of punched paper tape, rather than being stored in the computer. In 1945, however, a computer with program storage was built, based on the concepts of the Hungarian-American mathematician John von Neumann. The instructions were stored within a so-called memory, freeing the computer from the speed limitations of the paper tape reader during execution and permitting problems to be solved without rewiring the computer. The rapidly advancing field of electronics led to construction of the first general-purpose all-electronic computer in 1946 at the University of Pennsylvania by the American engineer John Presper Eckert, Jr. and the American physicist John William Mauchly. (Another American physicist, John Vincent Atanasoff, later successfully claimed that certain basic techniques he had developed were used in this computer.) Called ENIAC, for Electronic Numerical Integrator And Computer, the device contained ...
- 1278: The History of Computers
- ... first vacuum, and a paper was wrote by Alan Turingthat described a hypothetical digital computer.13 In 1939 there was the first true digital computer. It was called the ABC, and was designed by Dr. John Astanasoff. In 1942 John O. Eckert, John W. Mauchly, and associates had decided to build a high speed computer. The computer they were to build would become to be known as the ENIAC (Electrical Numerical Integration And Calculator). The reason for ...
- 1279: The Computer Underground
- ... of the criminal element. Correspondingly, some reject the notion that there are different roles and motivations among computer underground participants and thereby refuse to define just what it is that a "hacker" or "phreaker" does. John Maxfield, a "hacker expert," suggests that differentiating between "hackers" and "phone phreaks" is a moot point, preferring instead that they all just be called "criminals" (WGN-Radio. Sept 28, 1988). The reluctance or inability to ... obtain protected information or more powerful access privileges.5 Phreaking Another role in the computer underground is that of the "phone phreak." Phone phreaking, usually called just "phreaking," was widely publicized when the exploits of John "Cap'n Crunch" Draper, the "father of phreaking," were publicized in a 1971 Esquire magazine article. The term "phreaking" encompasses several different means of circumventing the billing mechanisms of telephone companies. By using these methods ... computers. The applicability of phreak/hack information to a wide range of systems does not require the specialization that pirate boards exhibit. This makes it easier to estimate the number of systems in this category. John Maxfield, a computer security consultant, has asserted that there are "thousands" of phreak/hack 13 Pirate boards are normally "system specific" in that they only support one brand or model of microcomputer. boards in ...
- 1280: Paul Edgecombe: An Excellent Character
- ... handle it, he was still there. He also cared about his co-workers. He seemed to have a fairly close relationship with all of them, except Percy of course. When they were planning to take John Coffey to help the wardens wife, he cared enough about Dean and the fact he had children to let him stay back at E Block so he would hopefully not get in as much trouble if they got caught. Although it was his job to talk to the supposed convicts as they awaited their deaths, he cared when he talked to them, and especially when he talked to John. He went and sat with them and made them feel good, like when he let Delacroix know that Mr. Jingles would be okay and they would send him to Mouseville to live. He also protected the prisoners. He didn’t let Percy beat Delacroix to death, or let him continue on screaming “Dead man walking” when he was walking John Coffey in. Even though he didn’t know the whole story about why Percy was beating Delacroix, Paul put himself in-between them so Percy would stop. When I think of something like that ...
