SDU Clothing Line Business Plan
Submitted by mlewis-zakuto on Thu, 06/10/2010 - 15:37.
My Capstone is a Business Plan for the clothing line SDU. SDU stands for Successful Dropout Union. SDU specifically focuses on what is believed as the peak of the street-wear influence in each persons life; college. Walking down any college campus it is not hard to find a group of young men and women immersed in the allure of the streets. What makes SDU different is the use of collegiate themes and color-ways with suggestive messages of college not being the determining factor in a successful life. My project was a difficult one. I originally didn’t want to do a business plan anymore but Mr. Latimer, my inside mentor helped me to complete my project regardless of if I was interested in doing the business plan or not. This helped me realize whether I would want to pursue business later on or just leave it there but it is a great learning experience.

The executive branch should have the role of being able to give the final say to the bill. I
feel as though if you pick someone for your mayor, governor, or
president; you should have enough faith in their educated decision to
pick the right bills to be passed. The only drawback to that is if the
person whom is your executive official is a person whom you did not
choose, thus making it harder in the decision process.

I
would have my Philadelphia City Council Bill pass because to me that is
the bill that will affect the most people in a positive way instead of
negative.

U.S. Congress House Bill
My
Congrees House bill is H.R. 3458 - Internet Freedom Preservation Act of
2009. It was written to amend the Communications Act of 1934 and to
establish a national
broadband policy, safeguard consumer rights, spur investment and
innovation, and for other related purposes. I think this bill has the
potential to pass and become a law because of what it could be used
for.

Yesterday my mother woke Kiana and I up at 6:50am to take us to the
polls. We got there around 7:30am along with my grandmother and aunt.
Once we got in there it was already hectic, the woman who worked there
was asking what division everyone was in, like it was a known fact or
something. She then lined my family and I, along with other people, in
a line designated "10th district". Nobody that was in the line knew
what the 10th district was, the woman just assigned us to the line so
we stood there. Aftewe grew angry from standing in a line that wasn't
going anywhere, and wasn't even headed towards a polling booth, my
grandmother asked the woman what was going on. After they had an
argument about districts, the woman finally headed us towards a line
What makes a good interview and podcast?

You may be asking yourself what makes a good interview and podcast. You could have a bad interview but the way that you edit your podcast could make it a whole lot better. Some good things to keep in mind when you want a good interview is to make the person feel comfortable. Ask them questions that will open them up to you, not really personal questions, but questions that will loosen them up.
