In this striking tragedy of political conflict, Shakespeare turns to the ancient English Learners, Academic Literacy, and Thinking: Learning in the Challenge Zone pdf Roman world and to the famous assassination of Julius Caesar by his republican opponents. The play is one of tumultuous rivalry, of prophetic warnings–“Beware the ides of March”–and of moving public oratory, “Friends, Romans, countrymen!” Ironies abound and most of all for Brutus, whose fate it is to learn that his idealistic motives for joining the conspiracy against a would-be dictator are not enough to sustain the movement once Caesar is dead.
In the early 1990s, Motorola, the legendary American company, made a huge gamble on a revolutionary satellite telephone system called Iridium. Light-years ahead of anything previously put into space, and built on technology developed for Ronald Reagan’s ‘Star Wars,’ Iridium’s constellation of sixty-six satellites in six evenly spaced orbital planes meant that at least one satellite was always overhead. Iridium was a mind-boggling technical accomplishment, surely the future of communication. The only problem was that Iridium was also a commercial disaster. Only months after launching service, it was $11 billion in debt, burning through $100 million a month and bringing in almost no revenue. Bankruptcy was inevitable – the largest to that point in American history. It looked like Iridium would go down as just a ‘science experiment.’ That is, until Dan Colussy got a wild idea. Colussy, a former CEO of Pan Am, heard about Motorola’s plans to ‘de-orbit’ the system and decided he would buy Iridium and somehow turn around one of the biggest blunders in the history of business.
