Jasmin Darznik is the most affected by state-led nationalism by having to renounce her citizenship to the United States government. Tan Le is the most affected by state-seeking nationalism by serving as a representative for immigration rights in Australia. When Darznik arrived in the United States, her parents had bought a house and owned a small hotel business in California. After leaving the U.S. for a summer to visit Iranian relatives in Germany, the family would soon return to find that they were no longer welcomed in America. “As the officer questioned their nationality, she retreated to a back room. A few minutes later, she returned to inform the family that their applications for re-entry back into the U.S. had been denied. They would…

San Jacinto is known as the birthplace of Texas freedom. San Jacinto is considered one of the world's definitive fights. Sam Houston and his battered band of 910 pioneers steered Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna, President, and Dictator of Mexico and so-called "Napoleon of the West," with his glad armed force, and changed the guide of North America. This story that has excited Texans for over a century. An account of high courage and initiative; of horrid hardship, disaster and sentiment. On April 21, 1836, this battle had permanently engraved the names of Texas loyalists on history's look of American immortals. Although the battle only lasted twenty minutes, the outcome had about a six-year long affect (Kemp). At the…
I am David Shane Dobyns, twenty-two years of age; I was born in Puyallup, Washington August 17th 1994 at Good Samaritan hospital. My family consists of my mother, father, and brother. Growing up was as idyllic as one would suspect. In my pre-pubescent years we moved several times bouncing from Oregon to Washington in search of “gods’ plan” for us, finally starting a church of our own in Lubbock, Texas. The church siphoned our time and money to the brink of poverty. Through the eyes of a jaded 5-year-old, everything was but a perfect utopia, neither a problem nor a care in the world. Mother was a stay at home at the wife, dictated by the church, whilst father worked odd jobs donating what blood and platelets he could muster that week to pay…
The jeremiad come form the second generation of Puritans, jeremiad comes from the Old Testament books of Jeremiah and Isaiah. Jeremiad is define, as good people will happen good things and bad people will happen bad things to them, we can relate it to as karma. Puritans culture was all about God, they had a plain style, for example, their churches didn't have glass windows, color, and fancy furnitures,because they didn't want to be distracted. Jeremiad fits in their culture, because they believed that they would go to heaven, if they follow their rules and anyone that wasn't a Puritan wouldn't go to heaven, but to hell. They wanted to be in the election, have their own spot in heaven.…
The 1950s were a political nightmare for President Dwight D. Eisenhower. It seemed as if no matter what he did he was going to severely upset a large group of people. He had civil rights activists organizing large-scale protests across the United States as well as political pressure from southern whites to continue to uphold segregation in schools. Once civil rights leaders such as Malcolm X and Martin Luther King Jr. starting organizing mass protests on Washington D.C. within the black community, many white southerners became concerned. Some responded by joining the Ku Klux Klan, an extremely violent racist…

It’s going to be hard after knowing that Johnny had died. Losing Johnny is a big thing for us and our gang knowing that we have just lost someone at a very young age. One word that describes Johnny is strong. He was a fighter. He was eager to help other people. To many people he was little Johnny, the poor, abused puppy. However he sure looked tough to the folks he had not met or knows of. Johnny was strong because of what he put up with. Johnny was love itself. We were his real family. We supported him, if he was kicked out we were there to take care of him. All he ever wanted was to be loved. It made him awful that his own parents did not love or even care about him.…

Tyler Evan is one of my many peers who have made a huge impact on my life. I meet Tyler in April of 2017 and though I have not know him that the long the summer we spent together has changed a lot about how I see the world. He has opened my eyes up to a whole new social class that I was not familiar with. When I was growing up I had supportive parents and never had to worry about financial problems. As me and Tyler began to get closer I found out that my life isn't at all what most people have. Due to some circumstances his parents were very involved in his life, and had little to no money. After all he had been through and all the challenges he has faced , It still shocks he that he is as strong and independent as he his. For me I had always seen the people on the street who lacked money but they never really meant anything to. People who have little to no money can be just a great, and hardworking as those who are wealth.…
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to investigate the perceived impact of just-in-time ( JIT) implementation on operations performance, identify the relationship between elements of JIT (integrated and individual) and performance metrics, and based on the results, present some helpful suggests for improving JIT implementation in manufacturing industry. Design/methodology/approach – Framework and hypotheses based on literature review were first constructed, then a questionnaire was developed to collect data from mainland China; in total, 224 information responses were obtained, then statistical analysis was carried out to test the hypotheses. Based on the data analysis results, conclusion and managerial insight were summarized. Findings – Results show that, no matter what kind of industry or scale of sale of the firm, implementation of an aggregate bundle of JIT elements can improve production operations performance. However, for individual elements of JIT, their impacts are different; some basic elements of JIT like 5S, multiple-skill employee and JIT purchasing can play a more remarkable role than other elements. Practical implications – The conclusions of this paper can benefit firms in improving implementation of JIT in practice, especially for those firms in developing countries. Originality/value – Although a number of studies on JIT implementation have been reported in developed countries, little attention has been paid to the status of Chinese firms; this paper has value for examining the practice of JIT in China and reference value for other developing…
