“Wake up,” Josie Said to me as she pulled the comforter off of my bed. “Five more minutes,” I slowly griped. “No, we have to get our bags packed, today's the day,” Said Josie. I got up, my bones aching worse than a two day old flu shot, and my head spinning quicker than a hurricane.

When I go down the…

Rationality and self-interest are often measured relative to efficiency. However, this is not the only aspect that should commend the acceptability of a business sector’s technique of increasing profits and reducing cost.

Prisoners acquiring jobs in jail, no…

Some of the major forces in the retail industry during the 1700s were Yankee traders, booksellers, and peddlers. In the 1800s department stores and chain stores were introduced and became a big part of the retail industry. Departments stores such as Macy’s, Marshall Fields, and Wanamaker’s impacted the retail industry. For example, these department stores created new business tactics which included “the encouragement of leisurely browsing, and the ‘One-price policy’, which eliminated the need to…

It was a mild, dark summer day in the Alaskan wilderness so I was out hunting with one of my buddies, Alex Smith. Me and and Alex first met in 5th grade, we’ve been close friends ever since. I had a Beretta Ballista that shoots a .308 Lapua Magnum so I could shoot long distances and Alex had a AR-15 that shoots a 5.56*.39. I was in the deep woods in a treestand and Alex was just about 20 yards away in a ground blind. I saw some movement in the distance but it was very dark at night with no…

Usually all the information on Hawaii that people usually retain is that “Pearl Harbor happened there,…
