Written and directed by Tate Taylor, “The help” is a spectacular movie about the treatment encountered by the maids that work for white families in Jackson Mississippi in the 1960’s during the Civil Rights era.

The Basilisk is called the "King" because it is believed to have a crown shaped crest on its head. The Basilisk is a snake that can grow up to fifty feet that is green and covered in scales. It sheds its skin at intervals like other snakes when it grows. It has bright yellow eyes that can kill you if you look directly into them.

But breeding Basilisk was banned in Medieval times. Basilisk are known wizard killers and cannot be domesticated. Basilisk can live a natural life of at least nine hundred years while Salazar's Basilisk lived for approximately a thousand years. Because the

The Hunger Games trilogy revolves around universal dystopian themes such as :oppression, rebellion, class tension as well as appearance vs. reality ," Collins creates the world that on one hand seems quite improbable and extreme, but on the other, vividly reflects some specific issues in a real world, like social inequalities, ignorance and passivity of the people" (Macanić 7).

The culture of a company is one of the most important and sometimes overlooked factors in an organization. The culture can increase employee engagement and increase productivity which will allow a company to reach its goals, “From productivity and engagement in the organization’s day-to-day, to an employer brand that naturally fuels recruiting efforts, to creating a lasting brand that customers immediately recognize, there’s no escaping it – culture radiates outward into the marketplace” (Straz 2015).

Although Marriott International has a competitive advantage of being the largest hotel company in the world, experiencing years of remarkable growth with the acquisition of Starwood Hotels, and ranking at number 163 on this year’s Fortune 500, it operates in a highly competitive market. The recent success of Airbnb, for example, has had major effects on the hotel industry as it has quickly become a threat.

This proves that this online service is significantly surpassing these stable hotel chains that have been competing in the industry for over 60 years. Along with this, a recent report by HVS Consulting & Valuation found that “hotels lose approximately $450 million in direct revenues per year to AirBnb” (Orourke). Although Marriott International has been performing with a 45% increase in revenues from 2012 to 2016, Airbnb has definitely had an impact on the consumer perspective of traditional hotel rooms. In addition to this, hotels also lose over $108 million of food and beverage revenues as a result of guests not spending their money at the hotel’s restaurant. The use of other services, like the
