How does it reflect on the character of Odysseus and the themes of the epic?
Odysseus is described in book 22 of The Odyssey as being found
in the thick of slaughtered corpses,
splattered with bloody filth like a lion that’s devoured
some ox of the field and lopes home, covered with blood,
his chest streaked, both jaws glistening, dripping red—
a sight to strike terror.What figure of speech is being used here? How does this figure of speech function to reflect the plot of the epic? How does it reflect on the character of Odysseus and the themes of the epic?
question2: Early in Oedipus Rex, the title character says:
Ah, my poor children, what you come to see
Is known already—not unknown to me.
You are all sick, I know it; and in your sickness
There is not one of you so sick as I.

As a leader, how could you help your project team avert ethical dilemmas or illegal situations in the future?
For this case assignment, you will face a hypothetical situation. This would also be a good chance for you and your team to do another learning cycle. Read through this assignment first and then meet as a team to develop a Project Team Record and an Action Plan. This will help to improve team learning and to assign responsibilities to complete the assignment.
Over the past few weeks, you have talked to a number of hardware vendors and requested quotes to provide the needed equipment to support the Pilot Angels application system. The deadline for each vendor to submit a bid is next week. During a casual conversation with L.T. Scully’s administrative assistant, you learn that a salesperson from one of the vendors who will be submitting a bid has invited L.T. to a professional hockey game tomorrow evening. The vendor has rented a private box where complimentary food and drinks will be available while watching the game in comfort. If the home team wins tomorrow night, they clinch a chance to be in the playoffs. The game is sold out, making a ticket to this game very valuable and in high demand.
Please provide a professional-looking document that includes the following:
If this rumor is true, discuss why this may be an ethical dilemma for L.T. Scully and for you as a project manager?
Think about and answer the following questions:
Who are the stakeholders involved?
What are the consequences for each stakeholder?
What are your obligations to each of the stakeholders?
Suppose that you walk into L.T.’s office and see an open, gift-wrapped box with a jersey of the home team. You know that the cost of the jersey is about $180 because you just purchased one for your nephew as a gift. L.T. confirms that he was invited to the game by the vendor and that he just received the jersey from that vendor’s salesperson. How would you handle this situation?

(Yes, this is the opera house that inspired “The Phantom of the Opera”!) *Only audio is the Overture from The Phantom of the Opera. http://www.archdaily.com/109135/ad-classics-barcelona-pavilion-mies-van-der-rohe/
(Barcelona Pavilion) *Only audio is instrumental from Ghost Story by Coldplay Charles Garnier’s motto to describe his design for the Paris Opera (aka Palais Garnier) was “Bramo assai, poro spero” (Desire for much, hope for little). Legend has it that he also described ornamentation on a building as akin to a lady’s rouge and lipstick (Trachtenberg and Hyman, Architecture from Prehistory to Postmodernity, Second Edition, p. 430). The Second Empire Beaux-Arts style he employed on the Opera is highly ornamental, inside and out.
Ludwig Mies van der Rohe’s motto, on the other hand, was famously “Less is more,” as evidenced in his high Modern Barcelona Pavilion. He is also the architect responsible for later glass-curtain wall skyscrapers, such as his Seagram Building in NYC, 1954-58, page 231 in our textbook, fig. 14.23. Answer these questions under Module 4 Discussion Forum. Which motto/design approach do you agree with? Do you like a highly ornamented building or a simple, clear structure true to its form and materials? Does it depend on the type of building it is or the time period in which it was built? Give an example to support your opinion – this can be a building or structure that you are familiar with in your own city or a building you find on the internet. Give the name and location of the building and include an image in your post.Give the name and location of the building and include an image in your post.
