Howard Carter
Howard Carter Howard Carter is one of the most famous explorers. His most eminent excavation was when he discovered the untouched tomb of Tutenkhamun, otherwise known as King Tut, although he did many other excavations that helped us understand the culture of the ancient Egyptians even better. I am writing about him to determine how he has made a significant contribution to our understanding of the culture of the ancient Egyptians. Howard Carter was born in 1874, in Norfolk, England. His father was painter and taught him this skill, but Carter had no desire to continue in the painting field, but more in the ways of archeology and work for the Egyptian Exploration Fund, exploring the tombs of the ancient Pharaohs. At the age of 17 he went to Alexandria, Egypt on his first exploration. His first project was at Bani Hassan and his task was to record and copy the hieroglyphics from the walls of the tomb. At this early age, he would work all day, and at night he would sleep in the tomb with the bats. Later, he was privileged to work for Flinders Petrie, a strong field director and one of the most credible archaeologists of his time. Petrie believed Carter would never become a good excavator, but Carter proved him wrong when he unearthed several important finds at the site of el Amarna, the Capital of Egypt during the control of Akhenaten. Petrie's demanding tutorage, Carter
Howard W. Campbell
Matthew Schenk English 112 Mrs. Elizabeth K. Claussen Howard W. Campbell Jr. Kurt Vonnegut's Mother Night is a story about war, love, deception, making peace with yourself and your past, and many other various themes and ideas. The story revolves around one man, but also around the people in his lives all of which, including himself, are very complex and different individuals. Some may or may not be exactly who they seem to be and others happen to be exactly what they seem to be, but as Vonnegut says himself, "We are what we pretend to be, so we must be careful about what we pretend to be." Howard W. Campbell Jr. was an American born, son of an engineer and an amateur cellist. He grew up sort of ordinarily in America, spending most of his time with his less than sane mother. His father, away with work most of the time, was not often around leaving him and his mother to be each other's main companions. Eventually his father will be transferred to Germany for work and the family will then move there, where Howard will live and grow up. During the Nazi build-up after Hitler comes into power Howard decides to stay in Germany despite the fact that his parents return home. He is a playwright and is an associate of the members of the Nazi party and becomes a Nazi himself, though only in name and to be able to live and work comfortably in the Nazi ruled Germany. After being

Death of a SalesmanAct two- Willy and Howard
Juliet Gaishauser Death of a Salesman Act two- Willy and Howard The second act begins with a change in tone from the previous act, as Willy is now cheerful and optimistic and speaks to Linda about buying a new house in the country; he now believes that after seeing Howard he will have his job permanently in New York City. Howard Wagner is Willy's boss. Howard inherited the company from his father, whom Willy regarded as a "masterful man" and "a prince." Though much younger than Willy, Howard treats Willy with condescension and eventually fires him. Willy goes to the office with intention of asking Howard for a New York position; however, Howard makes this difficult. As soon as Willy walks into Howard's office he ignores Willy's attempt of discussing his career with him. There is many times where Willy asks Howard a question and he simply ignores it or changes the subject. Howard seems to be fascinated with his new wire recorder. The only questions that Howard answers are about the recorder. "What's that, Howard?" "Didn't you ever see one of these? Wire recorder." After this Willy tries to ignore the recorder, "Oh can we talk a minute?" After this Howard continues to obsess about his new gadget. Did Howard already know what Willy had come to him for? If so, he was desperately trying to avoid the subject. Howard, still obsessing over the machine then turns it on to let
Sensing realism - Howard Koch's Invasion From Mars
Sensing Realism K-Ming Lee In October 31, 1938, one of the most controversial dramatized events was aired over the radio. Howard Koch's Invasion From Mars, based on HG Wells' War of the Worlds, aired on CBS at 8:00 PM. After this story, science fiction would never be the same. In this radio play, the Mercury Company preformed a play over the air about a Martian invasion that many listeners believed was a actual event happening. In the radio play Invasion From Mars; Howard Koch was able to convince many listeners that the performance was a valid new broadcast by music, sound effects, and tone of voice. Being preformed in 1938, the play was well produced and had great dialogue and description, making it seem very well. By incorporating the cutting in and out of music, Howard Koch was able to give the audience a sense of realism. Howard Koch knew that in order to make the radio play become real, he would have to cut in and out of actual radio play. For example from pages 252 to 254, they play popular music in that time period and frequently cut in and out to report "breaking news". This makes it seem like they are actually broadcasting news rather then making it fake and just starting out with the news about the Martians invading. Having Phillips interrupt the music time after time caused the audience to believe that this was a real broadcast. This is because if Phillips
His Girl Friday by Howard Hawks.
His Girl Friday by Howard Hawks is a film that has gained a reputation for the rapid and frenetic style in which it unfolds. This reputation creates the impression that it would be difficult to follow. However through his use of the techniques such as the classical narrative system, continuity editing and many other simple yet clever cinematic techniques Hawks was able to create a film that despite its pace was very easy to follow. The structure of this film is typical of the Hollywood classical narrative system. The temporal order is very structured and simple. There is a clearly defined beginning, middle and end. In the opening scene we are introduced to practically all the major characters and the love plot between Walter and Hilby. We also learn of the Earl Williams case and see how Walter may use it to seduce Hilby back into the journalistic profession. So in effect the foundation or cause of the films narrative is laid down in the very early in the film. The middle of the film comprises of the effects of this cause. The end supplies resolution, Earl receives a reprieve and Walter wins Hilby's heart. This cause and effect style of narrative is typical of the film as a whole. At the end of each scene or even during a scene there is a cause that is soon followed by an effect. An example of this, even if insignificant, can be seen in this segment. Hilby's farewell in the
Howard / Patrick Stevedore vs. The maritime Union Australia.
HOWARD/PATRICK STEVEDORE VS. THE MARITIME UNION AUSTRALIA Phillip Ridgway 11E Good morning ladies and gentlemen I am here today as the head of the ACTU to talk to you about what really happened in the 1998 industrial dispute between Patrick stevedores and the Howard government and the Maritime Union of Australia (MUA). In response to poor working conditions on the waterfront, in the past, there was a need for strong unionism to develop so that they could protect themselves from these poor working conditions. Conservative governments have often been at loggerheads with the wharfies throughout most of the last century. The MUA was previously the Waterside Workers Federation (WWF) and the Seaman's Union of Australia (SUA). In 1996 it was made clear by John Howard that he intended to pursue industrial reform in trade unions especially the MUA. On the 28th of January in 1998 Patrick Stevedores cancelled the twilight and nightshifts at Webb dock, in Melbourne, and guards were brought on to the dock to remove the workers and to ensure that no riots occurred. Over the following months tension continued over the proposed use of non-union labour. The biggest blow came at Easter when black hooded security guards with vicious dogs were used to remove the union members from the stevedore premises in the middle of the night shift and replaced them with non-union labour. The rest of
Diary extracts - Private John Howard.
Tom Barnes 11MJT Private John Howard 28th August 1914 Well a rather queer thing happened to me today, I joined the British Army. Well over the past few weeks I have been hearing random comments about war in Germany, I just thought that this was a load of twaddle so I did not look into it any further. I got into work today and sat down at my desk when I heard a fearful roar, I opened up the window and looked outside. To my astonishment there was a line of young men, some even younger then me, from the City Hall to even where I could not see. I shouted down at a young boy. 'You there, what in blazes is going on?' and he replied in a hearty voice 'It is war sir, all the men are joining the army.' Well that took me back a bit, I ran down as fast as I could to the floor below to tell my chums Albert, Edward who were brothers, and Scott about what I had just heard but when I got there they was already leaving. I asked them what they were doing and they just replied 'My duty.' Then they left. I decided to follow them because I had no idea what they were talking about and to my amazement they joined the queue for the army. I walked up to them and they pulled me into the line and said 'good lad, I knew you would see sense.' Around two hours passed and we were still buzzing with excitement, and then we got to the front of the queue, with Albert, Scott and Edward in front of me. The
Analysis of the leadership provided by Starbuck's Howard Schultz.
a. Select any one of the following leadership models (LMX approach, Hill’s Team Leadership Model approach, Transformational Leadership approach), and with the information from the following case and additional information that you also may gather, discuss why you believe that approach best explains Schultz’s leadership practices. Be sure to define the key dimensions of the model you’ve chosen and how they are applied in Schultz’ case. I believe the Transformational Leadership Approach best explains Howard Schultz’s leadership practices. According to Peter Northhouse, “Transformational leadership is concerned with the process of how certain leaders are able to inspire to accomplish great things. Transformational leaders are recognized as change agents who are good role models, who can create and articulate a clear vision for an organization, who empower followers to meet higher standards, who act in ways to make others want to trust them, and who give meaning to organizational life (Northouse, 2013).” The idea of inspiring employees is evident from Starbucks Mission Statement, “Our mission: to inspire and nurture the human spirit – one person, one cup and one neighborhood at a time (Fortune Magazine, Nov.17, 2011).” The needs of others, also a centralized aspect of transformational leadership, is demonstrated by Schultz referring to his
Discuss 'Apollo 13' a space drama, Directed and produced by Ron Howard.
Apollo 13 Apollo 13 a space drama, Directed and produced by Ron Howard and was made in...... It was made to look as realistic as possible without it being a documentary; no original footage from the launch was used, apart from a few embedded images like in the news on TV. Howard used many different techniques to achieve realism: weightlessness, camera angles, special effects and historic words phases and speeches, but before he even started filming he had a good idea of the astronauts backgrounds, the flight plan and the exact events that happened on the mission. He spent a long time with the astronaut Jim Lovel researching the events. One technique used was weightlessness, in many of the scenes Howard needed to have the feel of weightlessness and he was lucky that NASA let him use their aeroplane KC135. This is a normal plane but not like a passenger aircraft, it has no seats and the insides are built to look like that of a shuttle. This plane was taken to huge altitudes and dropped to give the feeling of weightlessness; real astronauts used this in their training. Howard had to get 3 men and a camera crew onto the plane, and film good quality realistic scenes. I feel that this is a major part in the making of he film and the film couldn't be made well without it. The launch was a very realistic part of the film and Howard put a lot or work into it. With the combination
