I am going to choose the pokeball ring case my best friend made me to propose to my fiancé with, that currently sits on my desk. I would say this is representational art because it depicts a pokeball but also represents my engagement since it is a ring case. If you don’t know what a pokeball is, it a device that you throw to catch a pokemon (obviously not real) from the anime called pokemon. Me and my fiancé both grew up with the show and still watch it sometimes even now. It is a show that may never die. The pokeball my friend made out of pure metal was his first forging project that I would say he did a great job on. I can really only see this as art now because of the creativity and work put into it to make something so unique that expresses the type of art he does. I doubt there are many people who wouldn’t see forging as an art but I do believe it is an art form that many people would look over when they thing of art. Whenever I look at the case it reminds me of the day I proposed and how much work my friend put into it just so I could have a more fun proposal.

H.R. Strategies

When completing the “Internal and External Analysis” assignment earlier in the course project you were tasked with creating three strategic goals for your chosen company. From this assignment forward, you will be choosing one of those goals and carrying it through the strategic management process. Feel free to rewrite and improve the goal, but make your choice wisely. It will impact many of the upcoming project assignments. This assignment will require you to develop a staffing plan to attract, develop, and retain good employees to work on your chosen goal. It’s very important that you’re linking all of your choices to how it will help you accomplish that goal. Everything should be custom fit to that goal and that will be a big portion of the grading. For your staffing assignment, you’ll need to write a detail breakdown of your HR staffing strategies that’s at least two pages in length and addresses the following:

    • How will your methods of attracting staff cater to a diverse work force?
    • What benefits will your goal in particular gain from having a diverse team working together?

9. The market mechanism is the

  1. Process by which firms and consumers bid at auctions.

  2. The sellers send the surplus back to the manufacturers for partial refund.
  3. Supply decreases in response to the surplus of goods.
  4. The price is allowed to fall, causing a decrease in the quantity supplied and an increase in quantity demanded, until the quantity demanded equals the quantity supplied.

11. When the quantity demanded is very sensitive to changes in price,

  1. %ΔQ > %ΔP and demand is price elastic.
  2. %ΔQ > %ΔP and demand is price inelastic.
  3. The price elasticity is greater than 1 in magnitude and demand is price elastic.
  4. Both a) and c).
