Abstract In recent years, Foxconn has been the target of numerous news scandals targeting wages, employee benefits, and working conditions. With every news scandal that broke out, Foxconn was put at risk of losing their largest contractor, Apple. In an attempt to clear the bad reputation associated with Foxconn, Apple enlisted the help of the Fair Labor Association to audit the factory and produce a report which monitors Foxconn and aims to hold them accountable for their actions. The FLA went in

purpose and tone. The audiences each author is trying to appease changes their writing style; Thomas Malory is trying to appease a fifteenth century audience who is traumatized by numerous uprisings and despair due to a history of bad kings, while Terry Gilliam is trying to entertain a more modern audience that wants a humorous and satirical movie. The intended purpose of each of the authors differ because each are delivering their works to a situationally different audience. In the fifteenth century

Two articles will be analyzed using the Aristotelian method. Both articles are valid, but the New York Times article written by Haider Javed Warraich offers a complete perspective using all three persuasive appeals compared to the article written by Terry Pratchett for The Guardian, which the majority is written on emotion. Haider Javed Warraich wrote “On Assisted Suicide, Going Beyond ‘Do Not Harm.’” The article starts out by mentioning that the majority of doctors believe assisted suicide is bad.

While perhaps the claims I am about to make were formed due to recent exposure to a multitude of Shakespeare's/Shakespearean work, I still could not help but bring to light the comparisons I made between the relationships in The Indian Emperour and those in The Taming of the Shrew, Romeo & Juliet, and Macbeth. However, despite there being a possibility that my mind and its analyses process has been temporarily compromised by the good work of our 16th century friend Billy, such a comparison is

Century In the early 1980's, a vision of dystopia was lying in the mind of Terry Gilliam. That vision was his future film Brazil to be written by Tom Stoppard, Charles McKeown, and himself. The movie was filmed in Wembley, England by Lee International Film Studios. After being a remarkable success during its release in Europe in 1984, Brazil had much more difficulties with its release in the United States. Terry Gilliam had previously signed a contract with Universal Studios for an expected

Nation is a novel by Terry Pratchett. Set on the Nation, a tropical island in the Great Southern Pelagic Ocean, a substitute for the South Pacific, the book details the events that follow a tsunami that causes widespread devastation across the Great Southern Pelagic. Mau, the protagonist, is a member of the community that inhabits the Nation.

A Close Tragedy Let’s begin with a typical flashback story. It was a bright and sunny Wednesday morning. As she was saying goodbye to her father, Angela felt as though something was a little eerie. She heard a thunderous noise that was quite common back in the Oklahoma fields, but this time it rattled the entire house and that was rather unusual. Asking her father with great concern, she knew something dreadful had happened. “He told me it was something in the field behind his house, but it shook

Being a young adult, constantly circling the edge of the abyss of adulthood, is one of the most critically important and talked about moments in a person’s life. That’s why ‘bildungsroman’ novels have their own section in Barnes and Nobles and why teen movies are still one of the most popular genres: because the transition into adulthood is fascinating. And yet, most acclaimed teen movies get it wrong. From John Bender’s borderline rape-y advances towards Claire in The Breakfast Club and still getting

Claude Debussy once said, “works of art make rules; rules do not make works of art.” No musical time period has seen, nor continues to see, so much change and innovation than the Modern period. Current artists express their own creative visions and use their ideas to suggest progressive directions for others to follow. The rejection and breakdown of all traditional guidelines unleashed complete freedom across present dimensions, including melody, rhythm, and chord progression. Some of the new music
