Abstract
The following paper attempts to show that people enjoy Shakespeare for a variety of reasons. It shows how some people are used to enjoying the amount of Shakespeare a filmmaker can fit into a two hour film, while others enjoy reading it in full. In this essay the writer attempts to show that, whether on film or in print, anyone who enjoys Shakespeare knows that imagination is key to enjoying it.
From the paper:
"But there are differences between the choices of experiencing Shakespeare. With a book, you can pause and come back to it later; you can digest it at your own pace. You can also reread certain passages and study the text more intensely than you can actors in a film. A lot of Shakespeare's speeches state the same thing several ways, so that the audience at a live performance can catch what's going on. When reading that speech, you can enjoy the entire thing without worrying about keeping up".

Literary Themes: Invisibility and Keeping the Dead Living, 2007.
This paper examines the literary themes of invisibility and keeping the dead living as observed from William Shakespeare's "Hamlet" to the modern literature of Robert Browning, William Faulkner, Gwendolyn Brooks and Ralph Ellison.

Abstract
This paper explains that, in "Hamlet", Shakespeare uses literal invisibility only once; however, there are several instances in which he uses a motif of figurative invisibility, when characters are present but unseen. The author points out that Gwendolyn Brooks' brief poem 'We Real Cool' reflects a modern understanding of invisibility as people about whom no one cares rather than in the classic motif of a character whom some can see while others cannot. The paper relates that, in Shakespeare's "Hamlet", Robert Browning's poem "My Last Duchess" and William Faulkner's "A Rose for Emily" the living characters try to deal with the dead. The author points out that Prince Hamlet is driven by the ghost of his father, Browning's Duke Alphonso has reduced his late wife to a curtained off, collectible art object and Faulkner's Miss Emily has clung for thirty years to the hidden body of the lover she felt she could not keep were he alive.
Table of Contents:
The Theme of Invisibility
Shakespeare's "Hamlet"
Gwendolyn Brooks' Poem 'We Real Cool'
Ralph Ellison' "Invisible Man"
The Theme of Keeping the Dead Living
Robert Browning's "My Last Duchess"
William Faulkner's "A Rose for Emily"
From the Paper
"The "Invisible Man" is a black youth in the segregated deep South. His invisibility stems from the fact that the whites around him are determined to maintain a racial caste. To do this, they have made those who were slaves "invisible." When the ten youths are summoned to the hotel ballroom and shoved blindfolded into the boxing ring, the white crowd does not see then as human beings. They are the countless racial slurs that are yelled out at them. They are the animalistic violence that drives the crowd to a frenzy."

Abstract
A problem/solution essay from the first person point of view dealing with the hardships of moving. It explains how one person is prepared to overcome the loneliness that is now a major part of their lives in order to regain a new sense of self.
From the Paper
"As red eyes continued to overflow with salty tears, so did the clouds continue to pour forth a ceaseless torrent of rain upon the ground, smashing straight as stair rods onto the soil, making it little more than a reflection of how I felt: damaged. Staring hopelessly out a small window, smudge marks not quite marring the depressing sight of dark forbidding clouds, I felt empty and alone. In order to relieve myself of boredom I had pulled my little address book off the shelf and started to read it. It contained the numbers and addresses of all the places and friends I had left behind when I had moved. Suddenly I realized that I would not be able to see my dear friends for a long time, and so clutching the tiny book tightly in my hands, firmly holding it against my chest, I wept. Having just moved, I knew no one but my family, and so I let tears flow at the dismal prospect of having to sit indoors alone, without a friend close by."

"Moving Violations", 2006.
An analysis and critique of John Hockenberry's memoir, "Moving Violations".

Abstract
This essay examines the memoir "Moving Violations," by John Hockenberry. The paper draws its critique from textual evidence, such as common themes and motifs in the book, in order to illuminate its premise that the book is a call for universalism. The paper calls the book, which chronicles the author's experiences as a paraplegic living in both America and the Middle East, an eye-opening tale of disability as a global issue. Arguing that Hockenberry's book is a statement of sameness, even in the face of difference, the paper maintains that Hockenberry wishes to convey through his own experiences that we all have much to learn from one another's differences. Ultimately, the paper concludes, Hockenberry's diverse life experiences have led him to advocate celebrating differences, providing equal opportunities and approaching limitations together as a community.
From the Paper
"We remember Hockenberry's view is that one is perceived to be weak in America if they are disabled. However, during the Palestinian uprising, one would take one glance at Radwan in his own country and just as people have many times assumed John Hockenberry was some kind of a war hero, one would assume the same of Radwan. In the Middle East, while it was considered weakness to be disabled in America, it was considered a kind of bravery and strength to be disabled in this region of the Middle East. It is evident in Hockenberry's account that many places in Israel are utterly inaccessible for wheelchairs. If the nation were all that mattered to people like Radwan, then it would not matter that his life is made to end in a single heroic act. But what about those to whom it does matter? Hockenberry states his belief that this is the wrong way to go about disability."

Abstract
The paper provides an analysis of Pawel Huelle's short story, "Moving House." The paper explains how the author implants the political onto the fantastic to symbolize the impact of Polish history during WWII on the Polish psyche.
From the Paper
"In Pawel Huelle's "Moving House" the reader is treated to the story of a young Polish boy who pays a visit to his German neighbor. Such a visit is forbidden to the boy, but the beautiful music played by the German lady next door bewitches him. In Polish history, Germany became an aggressive and betraying neighbor while Russia offered salvation. Nevertheless, for Poles one's friends one day could easily be one's enemies the next."

"On Keeping a Notebook", 2007.
An analysis of cause and effect in the essay "On Keeping a Notebook," written by Joan Didion.

Abstract
This paper introduces, discusses and analyzes the essay "On Keeping a Notebook," written by Joan Didion. Specifically, it discusses cause and effect reflected in the essay. The paper describes the writing of Didion and the memories that she records in her notebook. It then discusses how these entries illustrate the concept of cause and effect.
From the Paper
"Another cause and effect of Didion's notebook are the memories she chooses to record there. Often, she makes them up, rather than basing them in reality, and they change her memories of events and family get-togethers. She notes the often say, "'That's simply not true,' the members of my family frequently tell me when they come up against my memory of a shared event" (Didion). Her mind does not record events the way they happened, it records events as she would like to see them happen, and this is very distressing to many of the people around her. So, her notebook causes her to change or bend her own reality into something more pleasing or more memorable. The cause and effect is that it causes others to question her memories, but it adds details and interest to her writings when she incorporates these unreal memories. "Similarly, perhaps it never did snow that August in Vermont; perhaps there never were flurries in the night wind, and maybe no one else felt the ground hardening and summer already dead even as we pretended to bask in it, but that was how it felt to me" (Didion). She indicates that reality is not nearly as important to her as the ideas and memories she has created in her notebook, and she does not understand why others are so bound to what "really" happened."

'Moving Chairs, and Why It's Cool' by Timothy J. King", 2006.
A review of timothy J. King's article 'Moving Chairs, and Why It's Cool'.

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
In this paper, King proposes healthy and communicative responses to management strata relationships that were successful within his own experiences. According to the paper, King's view is that the use of dialogues and meetings is a crucial for efficient production, which invariably offers a revolving leadership system through his is symbolic usage of moving chairs. However, more studies should be done to evaluate the real effectiveness of this form of leadership before one should confront the authority of middle and upper management.
From the Paper
J. Timothy King provides an article that is based upon the "moving chairs" of leadership within a small sized corporate atmosphere. The first premise of leadership is many things go unnoticed, especially when communicating a change in management policy. King is often portraying himself in the article as a subordinate that has to work with upper management through a review based initiative that is often erroneous. However, King brings the moving chair element into communicating with his superiors within the review process, which ultimately has him influencing how policy is made within the company. In this manner, King is subjectively redefining the hierarchical role of worker/manager by breaking down barriers through communication and regular meetings. "

The Affects of the Moving Assembly Line on American Society, 2006.
A look at how the moving assembly line used by the automotive industry had a significant impact on American society.
1,125 words (approx. 4.5 pages), 1 source, $ 44.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This manufacturing study will examine the evolution of the assembly line production used within the American automobile industry. By examining "Asphalt Nation" by Jane Holtz, one can realize how greater reliance on mass produced manufactured goods on the moving assembly greatly lowered demand for handcrafted items in specialized labor. In this manner, Holtz, defines the increasing reliance on automobile manufacturers to create cars through this process to give greater access for travel in the middle classes. The great industrial revolutions of England and those that occurred within America in the 19th century help one to realize how more customers could have access to certain products. In the case of the automobile, Henry Ford sought to make it possible to give every American a car.

From the Paper
"Past social legislation guaranteed all American citizens entitlements to food, shelter, and other basic necessities. This social contract, which prevented the need for triage, was the foundation of the American state for fifty years. In the name of personal responsibility, welfare reform has destroyed the entitlements of dependent populations. According to the welfare reform scenario, Americans would survive only by taking responsibility for themselves?the shiftless and irresponsible would lose their life-support system and sink or swim on their own."

Abstract
This paper explains that Australia is underpopulated as far as its size, but over two-thirds of the population resides in any one of the ten major cities on the coast, which makes Australia one of the most urbanized counties in the world. The author points out that, even though the national language in Australia is English, the accent, style of speaking, and parts of the traditional vocabulary greatly differ from American English and is slightly difficult to get a grasp of in the beginning. The paper lists many social customs: Hand shakes are a common way to greet someone, Australians are keen on answering their invitations at the first possible moment, and an invitation to a dinner, even by a friend or a peer, usually means separate checks.

From the Paper
"A discerning manager or employer must be able to focus on those particular areas on which to concentrate so that he can motivate his employees. All employees must perforce know and have knowledge of how exactly they must perform their jobs, and the manager must remember that it would be quite unfair to expect an employee to carry out his duties if he does not even know what they are. Therefore, the employer must be willing and ready to provide the necessary training for the employee, and realize that if he does not, then his employee turnover would increase dramatically. If training were to be given, then the employees would be not only motivated for the present, but also by the prospects of future rewards and incentives and other benefits. Employee involvement is also a very important factor in keeping an employee motivated, because they too, like everybody else, would like to have a feeling of involvement in the many decisions that are being made about their work, in the work environment.

Abstract
Terrorism has become embedded in almost everyone's vocabulary, it is one of those terms, that not everyone knows what it means, but it seems to be surrounded with negative connotations. However, it is not surprising that terrorism is sometimes abetted with state sponsorship and is supported by many governments whether intrinsically or extrinsically. As such international peace-keeping efforts have to change focus and address these internal dynamics. This paper explores some of the necessary mandates that are needed by personnel dealing with these issues.

Conclusion
From the Paper
"Conflict resolution and peace keeping has been an issue of controversy for many years. However, with the proper training mechanism and structure, then peace and humanitarian operations can be the champions of a successful organizational initiative. It is therefore imperative that there be a comprehensive discourse embedded in the training structure for these operations that can analyze elements of the foreign conflict resolution and negotiation strategies. The connection between an effective training program or structure with the overall success of conflict resolution and negotiations will depend primarily on how well the program identifies the necessary political, economic, and cultural realms that have been affected by the dimensions of the operations. Overall, it is clear that conflict resolution and negotiation policy training is reactive and preventative, since it would be devised to counter, and to prohibit actions that were seen as harmful to the peace initiatives."
