Did that pumpkin just quack?

In my travels in California, I started noticing unusually colored houses and that people have begun to get bolder and more individualist. I became interested in all the different colors and started taking pictures. I decided that I wanted to make it into a book.

This paper examines coordination and profit allocation in a profit-center organization using a single transfer price. The model includes compensations, taxes, and minority interests of two divisions deciding on capacity and sales. The analysis covers arm''s length transfer prices which are either administered by central management or negotiated by the divisions. Administered transfer prices refer to past transactions and therefore maximize firm-wide profit net of divisional compensations, taxes, and minority profit shares only for given decentralized decisions. From an ex-ante perspective, it is shown that adverse effects on coordination may result in inefficient divisional profits of which all stakeholders suffer. We motivate a positive effect of advance pricing agreements, intra-firm guidelines, and restrictive treatments of changes in the firm''s accounting policy. By contrast, negotiations ignore compensations, taxes, and minority shares but yield efficient divisional profits. Negotiations seem compelling as they perfectly reflect the arm''s length principle. Moreover, common practices such as arbitration or one-step pricing schemes allow the firm to engage in manipulation at the expense of other stakeholders.

Scientific Essay from the year 2009 in the subject Politics - International Politics - Topic: Peace and Conflict Studies, Security, Princeton University (Woodrow Wilson School for Public Affairs and International Relations), 53 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: The catalyst and vehicle in domestic warfare and guerilla combat (not the cause) has always been technological revolution: the Cyberspace. Today, at least since the Al Qaida attacks at 9/11, technology is profoundly affecting the soveignty of governments, the world economy, and military strategy. Without doubt, information has often made the difference between victory and defeat. As a consequence, any efforts of governments in crisis diplomacy to stop others from interfering in its affairs, is rapidly eroding. Experiencing the current weakness of International Relations, United Nations and European Union, the ethnic, political, and religious diversity in the Gaza has given a strong foundation to the militant wings of Hamas inside the Gaza strip. Hamas not only conducts militant wings, but also runs extensive social networks. Whether in New York, Washington D.C., Berlin or Jerusalem: politicians are depended on what they read in their intelligence reports. Journalism correspondents find themselves in a system of embedded journalism both by the Israeli government and Palestinian Hamas, which restrict them to show no more than censored news. Finally, behind the individual''s eyeglasses in Europe and the US, every citizen is touched from what he intermediate sees online in his living room. Even the big problem of IR turns out in Gaza''s living rooms: The viewers of propaganda are more likely to vote with their remote controls than by further reasoning. Since its foundation the cyberspace enables extended personal and organizational interactions through many political, religious and economical borders in the World. None-state actors like militant splinter groups of Hamas might take over th

Big Buts of the Bible is a must-read for anyone who wants to study the familiar and not-so-familiar people and stories of Scripture in a fresh way. According to author Jan Thomas, one of the most important words in the Bible is but. So much hinges on that single word. A but always changes reality. That''s where our God dwells-in that other reality whose values and actions and reactions are not of this world. And when we dwell there with him, our lives are forever changed. Big Buts of the Bible helps us learn the amazing power of Scripture''s many circumstance-changing, mind-changing, reality-changing, life-changing buts.

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2006 im Fachbereich Theologie - Biblische Theologie, Ruprecht-Karls-Universitat Heidelberg, Veranstaltung: Proseminar Altes Testament, 30 Quellen im Literaturverzeichnis, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Jona ist nicht gerade ein Held. Er lauft davon, macht sich aus dem Staub und mochte nichts mehr von seinem Auftrag, weder von Gott noch der Welt, wissen. Er muss erleben, was es bedeutet, von Gott getrennt zu sein. Er ist ein stolzer und starrsinniger Mensch. Und doch erlebt er auf beeindruckend wundervolle Weise, wie ihn JHWH aus dem Tiefsten, seiner Todesstunde mitten im Herzen der Meere, eingeschlossen von Wasser und Wellen, zum Auersten, seinem neuen Auftrag in einem gottesfurchtigerem Leben heraufholt. Sein Gebet aus dem Tiefsten wird erhort und Jona durch das Eingreifen Gottes zum Auersten befordert. Wahrend das Jonabuch mit seinem Psalm im wissenschaftlichen Konsens als Glanzstuck hebraischer Erzahlkunst verstanden wird, besteht bei seiner historischen Einordnung immer noch weitgehende Uneinigkeit. Ziel dieser Arbeit ist die Untersuchung, warum Jona nicht auf den Gedanken kommt, in seiner bedrohlich dunklen Situation Bittgebete und ein Sundenbekenntnis zu sprechen, statt seinem Gott ein beispielhaftes und allgemeines Danklied zu singen. Dabei widmet sich die Arbeit der zentralen Frage, ob der Psalm nachtraglich in die Novelle eingefugt wurde oder als deren integraler Urbestand gilt. In einer zusammengefassten Exegese werden dabei die zentralen Interpretationsansatze im wissenschaftlichen Diskurs angesprochen und abgewogen. "Dabei konnen entstehungsgeschichtliche Modelle nur Hypothesen sein" 1, welche sich in der exegetischen Bearbeitung bewahren mussen. "Redet nicht so viel uber Literarkritik, Textkritik, Archaologie und alle anderen gelehrten Dinge, sondern redet uber Religion! Denkt an die Hauptsache!" 2 Die Methoden der Exegese sind trotz mancher biblizistischer Einschlage einerseits und einer haufig zutiefst wissenschaftli
