Case Study
Beck
Al Beck, president of Beck manufacturing, wants to determine the capacity of his facility, which produces steering gears for auto manufacturers. He has asked you to sort through the data and determine the capacity of the system and how that capacity may be increased. The operation is a product layout that produces large numbers of nearly identical products. The process includes milling, grinding, boring, drilling, and assembling, in that order. Each finished product requires one operation on each type of machine. For example, each finished part is processed on one of the five milling machines, one of the seven grinding machines, etc.
The facility runs two 8-hour shifts per day, with a third shift for maintenance. The industrial engineering department has provided you with the following data on present operations. In addition, you have been told that assembly operations, while not unlimited, can be easily changed to meet the need.
Operation Number of Machines Run Time per Piece (min.) % Reject Rate
Milling 5 2 3
Grinding 7 3 5
Boring 3 1 2
Drilling 6 2.5 7
Calculate the capacity of each machine center and the capacity of the system.
If Beck wants to expand capacity, where should he focus the company’s efforts? How much extra capacity can he get without causing another operation to become the bottleneck?
How may Mr. Beck expand capacity without purchasing new equipment? Be specific

Language is used in the family setting to communicate different ideas and to pass on information or commands.

Writing a conflict analysis essay. This should demonstrate everything you have learned in both the American Drama
For this project, you will be writing a conflict analysis essay. This should demonstrate everything you have learned in both the Unit as well as the entire course.
The audience for this paper should be an imaginary classmate, a student your age, who has read the story through once but has not yet studied it to understand it on a deeper level.
Your paper will be analytical in purpose. This means that your ultimate goal is to choose significant moments, quotes, or techniques from the play, present them, and explain how they work together to create larger meaning. Your paper will analyze three related conflicts from The Crucible by Arthur Miller.
Your three conflicts must be related. (Do not just choose the first three conflicts you can think of.) For example, you could write about three conflicts within one character, such as Proctor’s conflict with the court or “justice” in general, Proctor’s interpersonal conflict with Abigail, and Proctor’s internal conflict of guilt. Or, you could write about three characters (perhaps Mary, Elizabeth, and Proctor) who conflict with the court. You will explore one conflict per body paragraph. Each paragraph will:
Summarize: Explain the conflict.
Discuss the scope: Is the conflict between two people? A person and an idea? Or between the person and their conscience?
Interpret: What does this conflict mean? What is Miller using this conflict to say or show about life, truth, humanity, paranoia, or another theme?
Relate: How do these conflicts relate to and build on the others?
Support: Use at least two quotes from the play.
Your conclusion will tie all of these conflicts together. Your body paragraphs should build into an insight, or an overall message or theme that Miller conveys through The Crucible. Your conclusion will vary depending on what conflicts you choose. Do all the conflicts relate to one theme, like “justice” or “paranoia”? Or do they show how a character changes over the course of the story? A summary of your paper will not be sufficient for your conclusion you must discuss what the conflicts mean.
This essay should be between two &half and five pages (750-1250 words) in length. Your final draft should be saved and submitted as .doc or .pdf file. It should be in 12point font in Times New Roman.
10% of your grade will be on grammar and mechanics. Write as clearly and correctly as you can. This means that 90% of your grade is based on your ideas however, you will not earn an A if you do not proofread carefully and check for errors.
Most importantly, remember this is a culminating project for your American Drama Unit.Your essay should show everything you have learned throughout the cla

The Native American culture and the Jewish culture
compare/contrast in 2-3 paragraphs
Read the following 2 selections, one from the Native and the other from the Jewish culture. Compare and contrast the , figurative language, and themes of the tales. Find at least three differences and three similarities. Develop your ideas into two or three paragraphs.
Selection A: “Origin Of The Pleiades And The Pine”
Long ago, when the world was new, there were seven boys who used to spend all their time down by the townhouse playing the gatayû’stï game, rolling a stone wheel along the ground and sliding a curved stick after it to strike it. Their mothers scolded, but it did no good, so one day they collected some gatayû’stï stones and boiled them in the pot with the corn for dinner. When the boys came home hungry their mothers dipped out the stones and said, “Since you like the gatayû’stï better than the cornfield, take the stones now for your dinner.”
The boys were very angry, and went down to the townhouse, saying, “As our mothers treat us this way, let us go where we shall never trouble them any more.” They began a dance—some say it was the Feather dance–and went round and round the townhouse, praying to the spirits to help them. At last, their mothers were afraid something was wrong and went out to look for them. They saw the boys still dancing around the townhouse, and as they watched, they noticed that their feet were off the earth, and that with every round they raised higher and higher in the air. They ran to get their children, but it was too late, for they were already above the roof of the townhouse—all but one, whose mother managed to pull him down with the gatayû’stï pole, but he struck the ground with such force that he sank into it and the earth closed over him.
The other six circled higher and higher until they went up to the sky, where we see them now as the Pleiades, which the Cherokee still call Ani’tsutsä (The Boys). The people grieved long after them, but the mother whose boy had gone into the ground came every morning and every evening to cry over the spot until the earth was damp with her tears. At last, a little green shoot sprouted up and grew day by day until it became the tall tree that we call now the pine, and the pine is of the same nature as the stars and holds in itself the same bright light.
Selection B: “The Tree that Absorbed Tears” Told by Rachel Iizikowich to Yaakov Avizuk
A daughter married and moved to a distant village to live with her husband. The life of the girl was very bitter. She had no luck and what luck does not give, also the mind cannot change.
Once, the mother visited her daughter. She saw how terrible her life was. She wanted to talk with her, but was afraid to do it at home in case the husband should hear. So, she asked her daughter to go out with her. They went and went until they arrived at the nearest forest.
In the forest, they stood under a young and beautiful tree. “Tell me my daughter, what lies heavy on your heart. Tell me and relieve your sorrow,” said the mother. There, the girl cried as she told her secrets and poured her heart out to her mother.
Said the mother: “Listen to me, I cannot come and visit you every week. I beg you, instruct you and command you to come and tell this tree once a week all that has passed during the week.”
The daughter promised to do it.
After a while, the mother visited her daughter once again. She was glad to see the change in her daughter’s face.
She asked her: “Is it true that your life now is better than before, and you don’t suffer so much?”
“No, Mommy. Nothing has changed in my life.”
“And why does your face look so much better?”
“I don’t know.”
“Let us go to the forest,” said the mother.
Walking together the girl said, “Once a week I go to the forest to that tree and tell him everything, and then the heavy burden of suffering leaves my heart.”
When they came to the tree, they saw that it was almost dry. They understood that the tears and suffering of the daughter had been absorbed by the tree and made it dry up.

Essay about Buddhism
Two page essay about
Please discuss the following prompt: There is a story of a Buddhist monk who was on a ship with a maniac who was killing everyone on board. The monk eventually decided to kill the man in order to prevent further harm of others on board. Do you think this conforms with the principles set out in Buddhism? Why or why not? How do you think karma and compassion come into play in this story?
I want a two page of essay, minimum 550 words.
In your essays, I would like you to use at least two different peer reviewed sources to help substantiate your points. One of the sources should come from one of the assigned readings, and I would like at least one other source to come from outside our course texts. There are some great resources out there to help you find appropriate peer reviewed source material. One place to find some good journal articles is JSTOR (). . I’d like you to avoid using websites, as often these are not the most reliable and lack peer reviewed status. When providing these sources, you must use the Chicago Manual of Style (CMS or Chicago Style).
Readings:
Gowans, Christopher W. “Chapter 4: Karma, Rebirth, Nirvana and Other Topics: Some Skeptical Concerns”. In Buddhist : An Introduction, Routledge (2015), pp. 76-94.
