Digital Camera
Digital camera is a very important tool nowadays. People would always want to save their memories in the shape of pictures that will last forever. People were amazed when the first ever camera introduced back in hundreds of years ago. At that time camera consisted of large and impractical components and it was very hard to use. In fact, it even took quite some time to develop the pictures on the paper. But now there are some products of digital camera that are very easy to use and with its pocket-sized feature, one can carry it everywhere. There are several advantages of using digital camera: very easy to use, easy to carry on, instant feedback; which means one can immediately review the captured pictures and erase any pictures that they don’t like. One real advantage of digital camera is that one can share the pictures with other people easily thanks to the high speed internet connection. Before digital camera one has to print pictures, paying for postage, and waiting for the pictures to be delivered. Gone were that days since it is possible now to share the pictures online within minutes.
Introducing Powershot S400, a genuine product only by Canon. So popular that it has so many different websites that discuss its features and advantages compared to other digital cameras. The first website is the Powershot S400 website (www.powershot.com/powershot2/s400), the second one is megapixel.net (www.megapixel.net/reviews/canon-s400/s400-review.html), and the last but not least is DCRP Review: Canon PowerShot S400 Digital ELPH (http://www.dcresource.com/reviews/canon/powershot_s400-review/).

... about it. The website also has nice appearance, but not as professional as the first one. The big plus for this website is the forum dialog section where users can communicate to each other by sending messages in the context of the digital camera. The third website has the simplest looks of the three. Two best features of this are the active buyer’s guide (these virtual sales assistants give the best product recommendations based on one’s specific needs and uses) and message boards which is very similar to the megapixel’s user forum. One couldn’t say if one of the three is the best since they complimented each other very well.

Hurston puts many biblical allusions in this short story. Delia is a woman with strong faith. At one point , she even went to the extent of changing her church so she would not have to deal with Syke (Hurston 707). Sykes is said to “ have strayed from God’s path of righteousness” (Hurd 3). One allusion that contributes to Delia’s character is the following:
The story began with the picture of Sunday's night after church, at eleven o'clock in the evening. Delia was still working. As a washwoman, Monday's morning was important for her because she would return all the clean clothes and earn her money. That money was to pay for the house, her food, and the pony which Sykes, her husband, had gone with. After 15 years of marriage, Delia had lost all hopes in Sykes. The countless beatings and painful acts of Sykes had brought her to her limit. Sykes had gotten home, and as usual, the fight happened between two former lovers. Sykes's appearance by a scary scene was like the ev...
..., then he even did with his own family. He allowed a Hmong priest to give him a reading, which reveals how Walt is slowing beginning to understand the Hmong people and not only that, but also “lighten up” to them. The Gran Torino is an old relic, and it is the source of happiness to Walt. It may be the only thing, besides his dog, Daisy, that he truly cares for. Walt has a strong attachment to the car because it symbolizes a much happier time, with his wife, and also, before the war. The car is American made, which shows how no matter how much time passes by, no matter who moves in and out, and no matter how diverse his surroundings get, he will always be an American.
It has been a long time coming and women still are not where they, ideally, would like to be. In Zora Neale Hurston’s “Sweat,” the main character Delia is the picture of a strong woman. In the past hundred years this has been particularly evident. Since 1920, women have been able to exercise their right to vote. In 1966, the National Organization for Women was created, so that women can have a support system when they want to have a positive impact on the world. Women have been, still are, and will be, continuing to seek positions of authority. The theme the story is endurance and empowerment.
In 1943, Edwin H. Land, founder of Polaroid and his family were on vacation, he took a photo of his daughter and she asked him to see the photo of her right after it was taken, because of the curiousness of his daughter on that day inspired him of the instant camera (Linderman, 2010). Four years later, at the Optical Society of America meeting, he amazed the audience by demonstrated of the instant camera for the first time (Polaroid, 2017). Christopher Bonanos, an author of the story of Polaroid gave a definition that it is an instant photography at the push of a button. The new technology by Land was very fancy and wondrous to the world. “This is the first published photographic history of the Polaroid company”
In Zora Neale Hurston’s short story “Sweat” the author not only focuses on portraying different gender roles but also focuses on the theme of good versus evil within the marriage of Sykes and Delia. Hurston portrays Delia as the good in the marriage and Sykes as the evil. The use of religious symbolism and imagery is the support that makes this theme so strong and influential. As the short story progresses you witness the transition of a clean, moral woman who overcomes evil.
In Zora Neale Hurston’s short story, Sweat, Delia finds herself stuck in an unbearable marriage. Her husband, Sykes, mistreats her, leaves all work to her, and is unfaithful. After being married to Sykes for 15 years, Delia has lost all hope in the marriage. The countless beatings and painful acts of Sykes have brought her over the edge. She is forced to go against her strict religious beliefs because of the life in which she has been leading since her matrimony to her husband. One passage that sums up many factions of Delia and Sykes’s relationship is as follows:
...n Hybrid camera has feature of HD video recoding, targeting the behavior of the UK customers providing them DSLR with HD recording feature, who have already voted the canon as “mostly trusted” brand. This camera will attract the Canon’s existing users as this supports range of lenses.
Walt allowed racism to control his life and his stubborn mind to dictate his beliefs. It wasn’t until race was erased, that Walt let his guard down. Gran Torino displayed racism at its prime and showcased the blinding of one’s eyes through the thickening of one’s heart. As we see in this film Walt gained companionship through Tao after he lost his wife and Tao gained protection he needed from a dangerous gang. They both gained a friendship. Hopefully this film can influence the lives of some who may carry any slight racial prejudice and realize not to judge anyone based on what they look like, but for who they

Price discrimination is a pricing strategy that charges customers different prices for the same product or service. In pure price discrimination, the business charges a customer the maximum price that they are willing to pay . This practice is becoming more and more important for customers because of the discrete ways that businesses are finding to make it easier to implement them in many different ways. These are categorized into three forms; First-degree price discrimination, second-degree price discrimination and third-degree price discrimination. First degree price discrimination is where consumers pay the exact price that they are prepared to pay and where the producer charges different prices depending on how much the consumer is looking
The modern theory of price discrimination began with the work of Arthur Cecil Pigou (1877- 1959) and is defined by Machlup (1955): "Price discrimination may be defined as the practice of a firm or group of firms of selling (leasing) at prices disproportionate to the marginal costs of the products sold (leased) or of buying (hiring) at prices disproportionate to the marginal productivities of the factors bought (hired)". But in simpler terms, "price discrimination is often defined as charging different customers different prices for the same or highly similar offering" (Smith, 2004). The motive behind this is to increase profit by reducing consumer surplus. If the same price is charged to all consumers, some potential revenue is lost since some of the consumers would have been prepared to pay more. But before answering the question of whether firms should price discriminate or not, we will have to distinguish between the various types of price discrimination and before that it is important to note that there are three necessary conditions for a firm to practise price discrimination, namely, the firm must be a price maker, the elasticity of demand must be different in the different markets and finally, the market must be clearly separated.
Kodak is the world’s foremost imaging innovator. George Eastman put the first simple camera into the hands of a world of consumers in 1888. In so doing, he made a cumbersome and complicated process easy to use and accessible to nearly everyone. Since that time, the Eastman Kodak Company has led the way with an abundance of new products and processes to make photography simpler, more useful and more enjoyable. With sales of $13.3 billion in 2006, the company is committed to a digitally oriented growth strategy focused on helping people better use meaningful images and information in their life and work. (Kodak, 2007)

The ‘Gran Torino’ symbolizes Walt's belief that hard work and integrity earns you what you want in life. Ironically, Thao Hmong, a neighbour of Kowalski, attempts to steal this symbol, and in doing so puts in motion his eventual earning of its inheritance. As the the pair bond, each begin to understand each others’ values and beliefs. Aside from symbolising the unity of multiculturalism, this relationship allows Thao to learn that the car represents the integrity and respect that comes from those who earn it, not demand it. As Walt begins to see this change in Thao, he rewards him by slowly trusting him with the Gran Torino, washing it, driving it on a date, an obviously symbolic gesture of trust. Finally, Walt handing over his legacy, the Gran Torino, to Thao near the end of the film, is a symbolic gesture of his acceptance of multiculturalism. He became more open to a racially equal neighbourhood, and a racially equal America. Meanwhile, the film showcases the power of the individual by introducing new meanings to one’s salvation that can be realized through America’s multicultural promise.
