Immediate efforts by Major to secure other distribution for its products proved unsuccessful. Further, because Major owned no trucks itself and had no sales organization, it could not distribute the products itself. It also had no market in which to distribute. In less than six months, Major Food Products Inc. had failed, and Aronowicz’s and Duncan’s stock in Major was worthless. Machinery was foreclosed and repossessed.
To find two similar stories through out history is not very hard to do, unfortunately, the term “history repeats itself” is far too true. Statements like this can be seen in societies ranging from 3000 BC all the way to modern civilizations. We see entire civilizations rise up to be sophisticated societies that develop their own cultures, agriculture and economy, and for the most part these societies go on to create heir civilizations, however some just simply disappear. Historians refer to these kinds of cultures as “lost civilizations.” Two excellent examples of these “lost civilizations” is the Harappan civilization, dating back to 3000 BC and the much more recent Mayan society, originating in 300 BC. To say these cultures are extremely similar is a fallacy in itself, however to say they are extremely comparable is possible.
Each side is perfectly aligned, facing each direction, (north, east, south, and west), only offset by a fraction of a degree. Along with that, each side of the pyramids are almost perfectly congruent, meaning that advanced mathematics had to of been used in the creation of this enigma. They say this type of perfectly accurate construction would have been close to impossible for such a primitive race. But if the ancient Egyptians didn’t piece this extravagant puzzle together, than who did? We do know one thing for certain, that the pyramids were built around the 23rd century BC.
These religions have been around for centuries and never caused as much chaos, destruction, and war as they do now. Why are these religions rising into conflict now? In today’s day and era, technology has changed the world. Due to the technological era, neighborhoods have diversified and neighbors, students, theologians, priests, and professors have come face-to-face with people of other religions. Through a critique on Paul F. Knitter’s book Theologies of Religion, one can understand the faults of the Replacement, Fulfillment, and Acceptance Models.
He has a lot of help and many years to come up with this technology. Pushing his ideas to the extreme, he made employees work long hours and on a “need to know basis”. If Jobs never pushed though, the world could be a very different place than what it is now. Fred Vogelstein goes into how risky it was for Apple to “show off” the Iphone for the first time. “Not only was he introducing a new kind of phone-something Apple has never made before- he was doing so with a prototype that barely worked.” (2).
It is completely coincidence that the use of the Golden Mean is in the Great Pyramid. The Golden Mean is in many forms of the nature, but it cannot be said that Egyptians knew about it since there are no evidences of the Golden Mean in Egyptian mathematics. The Great Pyramid is a structure which has inspired mankind to create unique buildings using geometric shapes and symmetries, such as Louvre Museum in Paris. Egyptians did have the knowledge of calculating the areas and volumes of
With a colossal spread of over 1,260,000km², granting it the largest known ancient civilization. For over seven hundred years, the Indus civilization was thriving with excellence as seen in modern day religion & business, this soon declined and disappeared. But how could a civilization of such magnitude disappear leaving very little or even no traces? Archaeological excavations of Harappan sites began in 1842 by Charles Masson; many archaeologists persistently furthered the excavation of these sites. During this process, pieces of the jigsaw puzzle that is the Indus Valley Civilization have been fixed together suggesting answers to questions, but an extreme lack of definitive proof.
This accuracy is beyond comprehension, not only it would be deemed in today’s modern construction world, but probably more than could now be achieved. The perennial question is why such painstaking accuracy and perfection was achieved as the structure itself is not practical and even for visual reasons. In addition, the theories made by archaeologist about the Great Pyramid’s passageway and chambers are utterly convincing. It’s astounding that the Egyptians have skilled design, good engineering skills and knowledge of using suitable material to last eternity as if they knew how to plan and construct this
Other examples that they recorded included $13^2=5^2+12^2$ and even $8161^2=4961^2+6480^2$. One of the great intellectual masterpieces of the ancient Greek world was Diophantus' {\sl Arithmetic}. This work, available in Latin translation in the seveteenth century, was an important inspiration for the scientific renaissance of that period, read by Fermat, Descartes, Newton and others. Fermat, a jurist from Toulouse, studied mathematics as a hobby. He didn't formally publish his work but rather disseminated his ideas in letters, challenging
When attempting to answer the question one can find that to define the first-mover advantage is too difficult and specially is very difficult to differentiate between an actual benefit and the blink benefit. There are many issues that do arise when one tries to clearly define "first-mover advantages". One of these issue is to estimate the company gain in term of benefit against their investment after being first to produce and market a particular product. Many researchers have done different studies to specify the accurate benefited for being the pioneer in the field but still the issue is not solve completely. So, there is a great opportunities for the researches in the area of first-mover advantage so the issue arises above get solved completely.
