Many African Americans became quite popular due to their personal style in the aspects of photography, painting, drama, poetry, and prose during the Harlem Renaissance. Each aesthetic person had their own purpose for their works of art. Many of them wanted to depict the beauty of Harlem as well as emphasize the importance of equality between races and classes. The Harlem artists produced many great works of art in the black community from the 1920s and beyond. There had been a few…

I have to say that I secretly love the "Cadillac Tax" backed by the current Obama regime. In fact I think all conservatives should feel the same way. Why? Because it is one of the best examples of how bad this health care idea really is. Think about it, how often do you see the big labor unions and the rich and the middle class all upset about something? When that happens you know it has to be a bad deal. Of course the scary thing is that it is also one of the best examples of how this current…

However, accuse me of being a Marxist defined ‘Commodity Fetishist’ on some level, and I will be lying if I don’t agree. As an avid shoe lover and collector, I do attach a somewhat silly importance to my shoe collection.

In this section, we briefly survey VLSI manufacturing. TECHNOLOGY Most manufacturing processes are fairly tightly coupled to the item they are manufacturing. An assembly line built to produce Buicks, for example, would have to undergo moderate reorganization to build Chevys—tools like sheet metal molds would have to be replaced, and even some machines would have to be modified. And either assembly line would be far removed from what is required…

Unfortunately, some companies have mismanaged their greatest asset—their brands. This is what befell the popular Snapple brand almost as soon as Quaker Oats bought the beverage marketer for $1.7 billion in 1994. Snapple had become a hit through powerful grassroots marketing and distribution through small outlets and convenience stores. Analysts said that because Quaker did not understand the brand’s appeal, it made the mistake of changing the ads and the distribution. Snapple lost so much…
