For this For this progress evaluation, you will write two sequence analyses. Each analysis should be between two and one-half to three double-spaced, typed pages (650–750 words). One analysis should examine a sequence from The Graduate, and the other analysis should examine a sequence from American Beauty. Compile both of your sequence analyses into one document for uploading. Select sequences from each film in which elements of mise-en-scène are prominent. Do not try to restrict your analysis of cinematic style only to elements of mise-en-scène, but mise-en-scène should be the focus.

You have a lot of intellectual freedom with your final exam essays. This is because there will be a great deal of variety in your interviews. You have to be creative and find a way to turn your interview into a meaningful document that connects back to the specific historical themes and concepts you learned in this course. You will earn the most points if your writing is original, creative, and supported with historical evidence from the course materials. I already know that your subjects will probably not know or discuss the specific historical facts of the Industrial Revolution, or the Vietnam War, or the Civil Rights Movement, or the Cold War, etc. What you have to do is find the larger historical themes and concepts embedded in these events that are still relevant today (and therefore meaningful for your interview subject). For example, the history of the Vietnam War is 30 years long and very complex. Some Americans supported the war and some opposed it but very few hav

Week 8: Extended Literature Review

i want argument essay Format Essay
5000 word bound essay (+/- 10%) plus 150-200 word abstract, fully illustrated and academically referenced
• Find a balance of primary and secondary sources that allows you to present your own conclusions based on varied pieces of evidence.
• Use Harvard referencing throughout (see power hours material if you need to familiarise yourself with it), and ensure your sources are current and of academic standing.
• Include images if essential to an argument, in which case the images need to be specifically referred to in the text.
• Your abstract should be modelled on abstracts in academic journal such as Fashion Theory and therefore contain a brief intro to your study, a summary of its methods, and a brief its key conclusion, e.g.

Julia Petrov, J (2016) “A Strong-Minded American Lady”: Bloomerism in Texts
and Images, 1851, Fashion Theory, 20:4, 381-413
This paper offers new perspectives on the reception of the women’s dress reform movement in Britain and North America. Focusing on a central case study of a satirical letter and accompanying illustration parodying Bloomerism, which was published on both sides of the Atlantic, periodical editorials are analyzed in light of contemporary social and political attitudes. In contrast to commonly held assumptions about Bloomerism having failed because of deeply entrenched gender norms, it is instead asserted that the eventual backlash against the Bloomer fashion was a result of the British association with America’s poor showing at the Great Exhibition in London in 1851, and not necessarily because of inherent objections to its sartorial aesthetics.
Keywords: Bloomerism, Great Exhibition, dress reform, female emancipation, Punch magazine

Scenario

The King’s Cross site is 26 hectares of brownfield land north of King’s Cross and St Pancras stations (see attached plan). The London Borough of Camden has granted outline planning consent on the site to enable a major mixed?use development which includes offices, retail, restaurants, leisure, residential and university buildings. The largest single use is offices which are being built in blocks on various plots across the site. Momentum has established itself at King’s Cross (www.kingscross.co.uk) where The University of the Arts, London campus is now occupied and leading companies such as Google are going to move in. Some of the office blocks have been completed and are occupied, others are at various stages of construction while a start has not yet been made on some plots. One of the un?developed plots is T3 which will be the focus of the project.
The developer is King’s Cross Central Limited Partnership which is led by Argent Group plc. In the project scenario, the Partnership wishes to spread the risk by disposing of some of the peripheral plots to other developers. The developer that you work for: Sustainable Estates has become interested in purchasing Plot T3 on Canal Reach as the plot has planning consent for 12,077 m2 (130,000 ft2) of net office space over 8 floors. Your line manager has asked you to undertake a two stage feasibility study for Plot T3. The first part is a market assessment to try to establish the extent of demand for offices in this location. The second part of the feasibility study will be a development viability and funding report which, amongst other things, will recommend the maximum bid that Sustainable Estates could make to buy Plot T3.

Part 2 – Funding report

Funding. This part of the report should examine funding options available to support the development of Plot T3. This part of the report should distinguish between debt and equity and identify any differences in funding during the development stage and post?development stage.

Question 1. Materials Ltd (“ML”) sell building materials and sold 200 tonnes of gravel to Builders Ltd (“BL”) for a price of £8000. BL bought the bulk of the gravel to use in the construction of a new warehouse for Olicana Ltd (“Olicana”) on a site owned by Olicana. BL agreed to sell 25 tonnes of the gravel bought from ML to Patel Builders (“Patel”) for £1750. The 200 tonnes of gravel was delivered to the Olicana construction site from ML’s storage facility containing 20,000 tonnes of gravel. The contract between ML and BL provided that payment was due within 14 days of the invoice which was sent to BL on delivery. BL are in financial difficulties and even though BL received an interim payment under their contract with Olicana towards on- going costs of construction including materials, BL failed to pay ML for the gravel. Payment to ML is now 3 months overdue. BL has become insolvent and there is no money to pay ML.

50 tonnes of the gravel has already been used in the construction of the foundations on the site; another 50 tonnes has been mixed with dry cement ready for use in the construction. The remaining 100 tonnes of gravel is on the site separated into 2 piles. A smaller pile of a 25 tonnes has been set aside for Patel who paid BL for the gravel, but the gravel is being stored for them by BL on the site for collection by Patel. Following several downpours of rain, the 2 piles of gravel have spread and grass and weeds have started to cover the small 25 tonne pile of gravel making it very difficult to remove.

?
The contract between BL and Olicana for the construction of the warehouse included a clause stating that ownership of any building materials on the site passed to Olicana immediately on payment of the first interim payment under the construction contract. The contract between ML and BL contained a clause stating that ownership in any goods supplied by ML does not pass unless and until the goods are paid for and in the case of any sub-sale, ML have the right to any proceeds of sale. Due to BL’s insolvency, Olicana have employed new contractors to finish the work and say all the gravel on the site, including that mixed with the cement, belongs to Olicana. Patel say that the pile containing 25 tonnes belongs to them as they have paid for it and ML say that all the gravel including that mixed with the cement and the proceeds of sale belong to them under the terms of their contract with BL. The liquidator for BL is arguing that all the gravel belongs to BL and that the clauses in the contracts with ML and Olicana are ineffective.

A) Advise ML as to the ownership of the gravel. In particular, whether they are entitled to remove the remaining gravel including that mixed with the cement and whether they can claim the proceeds of the sale to Patel. (1500 WORDS)

Question 2. William and Mary are brother and sister and together operate an estate agency business, “Homes R Us”. William started the business on his own 5 years ago and initially Mary worked as his part-time secretary. For the last 3 years, Mary has had a greater involvement in the business dealing with clients, suppliers and placing adverts on behalf of the firm. Mary receives a 25% share of the profits by way of a salary. They verbally agreed Mary would not spend over £1500 on behalf of the firm without William’s approval. Without consulting William, Mary recently contracted in the name of the firm to buy a digital camera for £4000 to take photos of properties the firm were selling and a fur coat for £3000 to keep her warm when escorting buyers on property viewings. In addition, Mary has been placing adverts with a local paper owned by her boyfriend and, unknown to William, has been receiving a 5% discount on all adverts which she has retained for herself whilst the firm has paid the full price. 3 weeks ago, William sold 2 laptop computers that he had advertised in the local paper as “nearly new, only 2 years old” to Ivan who has a part-time business re-furbishing and selling computers for £300. The computers had been used by William and Mary for both personal and business use. Ivan has complained that he wants his money back as one of the computers is not working at all and cannot be fixed and that the other is in fact 5 years old and this has been confirmed by an independent expert. Nothing was specifically agreed about the quality of the computers.

B) Advise William as to whether or not a partnership exists and, if it does, as to his take against Mary in respect of her actions.liability and the liability of Homes R Us in relation to the contracts and what action, if any he can (750 words)

C) Advise William as to the liability of Homes R Us to Ivan regarding the sale of the computers.
