Introduction Fire is a common hazard for any business or premises. The Ras Laffan Emergency and Safety College focuses on training different cadres on fire and safety management. Due to this, it is prudent that the Ras Laffan Emergency and Safety College develop and adhere to this Fire Safety Management Plan. The Ras Laffan Emergency and Safety College was well built with numerous emergency exits. The compound has many visual fire and safety management messages and warnings. Additionally, it has a comprehensive alarm system. Apart from these, there is a need for a comprehensive fire safety management plan for the school. The college offers courses on fire and safety measures, thus, should also abide by the protocols of the same stipulated in the Qatar Civil Defense Department Fire Safety Guidelines. This plan, thus, should be adhered to in the event of any fire within the premises. Fire Safety Policy Statement The Ras Laffan Emergency and Safety College will maintain fire prevention strategies based on the size of the premises and the number of people it holds, provide detailed information to all the people in the premises at all times of fire evacuation strategies, and conduct fire risk assessments frequently and as deemed practicable. Fire Safety Management Structure There are three main things that should be included in a fire management structure. These three plans are maintenance, staff training and fire action plans (Purkiss and Li 19). The following chart details the fire safety management structure for the Ras Laffan Emergency and Safety College. Chart 1: Fire Safety Management Structure. Evacuation Strategies The security office will be in charge of drills, which will be done twice every month. The evacuation strategies include what to do and what not to do during a fire outbreak. What To Do Stop what you are doing and move to the closest exit Pull any fire alarms you see on your way out Use the stairs Lower your head if there is smoke in the building Head to the fire assembly point Staff should help people living with disabilities get to the nearest exit Remain calm and contact your fire response contact person from the fire assembly point What Not To Do Do not run Do not start packing your items Do not use the lifts or escalators Do not yell or cause panic Do not close doors behind you Do not attempt to put off the fire Do not attempt to search and rescue for friends Emergency Response The emergency response plan seeks to ensure there is minimum loss of property and less danger to life in case of a fire outbreak (Hamel 102). This response will guide the process in the case of a fire incident. This section provides details on protective measures for safety during a fire outbreak. Single stages or two staged evacuation should be initiated based on the source and extent of fire. The evacuated should gather at the fire assembly point where a roll call will be taken.
Introduction This paper explores the government surveillance and other control measures aimed at ensuring acceptable use of the internet. The paper assesses how different countries of the world can fix a balance between right to privacy and the importance of National Security. There are many reasons why governments should gear towards surveillance and control of ICT. However, the extent of, kind of control and the measures employed in control of ICT are a big raging debate. Government Policing and Law Enforcement Surveillance of ICT technologies shapes the way government exercises its roles of law administration, security and protection. Surveillance of these technologies enhances accountability between the government and its citizens. Information technology equipment, such as digital cameras and PDAs, complements surveillance ability of government agencies and reinforces security measures. This can strengthen government initiatives to minimize intrusion hence binding its citizen to the rule of law. Frissen, contends that measures to control the cyberspace provide a new paradigm for “stakeholders” on issues of law enforcement and security. This paradigm may alter devolution of government roles. For instance, social websites, which find greater application in the cyberspace, provide a unique opportunity for people to engage in public affairs of the government, and thus influence decision-making . Every government strives to keep under tight lid sensitive information especially regarding security to its people and property within its jurisdiction. Governments Changing Privacy Pattern ICT innovations that are continually being launched in the present society have huge ramifications on the privacy policy. The innovation enables complex and unobserved information collection and personal data profiling. This can be applied to classify target groups of individuals, and ease stalking of people. The innovation can also be used in virtual space or real-time, modeled on amassed data. Hence, through these measures, the government can control and check its citizens more efficiently. However, this will mutilate the privacy privileges of an individual. Lack of effective measures by governments in controlling and monitoring the cyberspace may cause uprisings from its citizens through rapid exchange of rumors. A good example is what has been witnessed in Yemen, Libya, Tunisia, Syria and other Arab countries (Foreign Policy). New Countervailing Controls Various ICT technologies provide an opportunity to open up conventional systems of democratic participation in governance, and in creating new patterns of engaging citizens, advocacy groups and the society in general. Hence, t
Introduction The main objective of this research paper is to present the strategic analysis with internal strengths and weaknesses, the external threats and opportunities of Saudia Dairy & Foodstuff Company (SADAFCO). However, the internal strengths of the company are brand image, financial position, efficiency of the employees, product line, technological adoption, quality of the products, and market share in global market, customer base, and internal management system. On the other hand, the external threats are unstable price of raw materials, large operating costs, veterinary, global financial crisis, global worming, presence of strong competitors both in national and international market, and so on. Company Overview SADAFCO established in 1970 as a milk producer of Saudi Arabia and it became one of the major players in the GCC zone in dairy and food processing industry within 1987 by joint venturing with several businesspersons and expanding business operation vertically as well as horizontally (Global Research 27). On the other hand, the company was criticised for merging with two similar firms Gulf Danish Dairy and Medina Danish Dairy and the critics argued that SADAFCO lost its uniqueness and originality due to such strategic decision. However, according to the report of Global Research, this company has five plants in order to produce more than hundred products those are vertically diversified products while only 50% products related with milk segments. This company also produces highly diversified products for the customers such as it offers several kinds of juice, Tomato Ketchup, ice cream, cheese and so on. However, the following figure demonstrates the food categories the diversified products of milk, dairy products, Ice cream, beverages, juice and water – Figure 1: – Product Portfolio SADAFCO. Source: Global research (5) On the other hand, the following figure describes the name of subsidiaries with business location, and share of Saudia Dairy & Foodstuff Company – Figure 2: – Subsidiaries of SADAFCO. Source: Global research (5) Current financial position of SADAFCO According to the report of Global research (3) on SADAFCO, the net profit of the company is ups and down each year, such as, its net profit was SR 57 million in 2008, but subsequent years it was only SR 28 million, and SR 203 million. This data demonstrates that the net profit increased SR 175 million in 2008 and decreased SR 67 million in 2010; therefore, it is difficult to predict the sequential profitability level. On the other hand, total assets and growth profit level of SADAFCO have increased gradually each year except the fiscal year 2008, for instance, gross profit of SADAFCO were SR 365 million and SR 372 million in 2009 and 2010 accordingly. Key variables                    2007/08 (SR million)  2008/09 (SR million)  2009/10 (SR million)  2010/11e (SR million) Net Sales Revenue                878                   922                   1,023                 1,146                 Gross Profit                     280                   263                   365                   372                   Operating Profit                 60                    63
Antigone is a 1961 movie directed by Yorgos Javellas and produced by Demetrious Paris. In the movie, Irene Papas plays Antigone, Maro Kodou plays Ismene, and Creon is acted by Manos Katrakis. The movie was released in 1961 and it is based on the famous Greek tragedy. Several months ago, I decided to watch a black-and-white film version, an adaptation of Sophocles’s most famous play called Antigone. The movie was released in Greece and it involves Greek actors, which suits mythological themes recovered in the picture. The film refers to the times of ancient Greece. King Oedipus invades Thebes and unintentionally kills his farther and marries his mother Jocasta. The King later has four children –two daughters, Ismene and Antigone, and two sons, Polyneices and Eteocles ( Antigone ). After Oedipus’s death, Eteocle promises his father to reign with his brother by alternating their power annually. However, when Polyneices ascends the throne, he refuses to give power to his brother and gathers the army to confront Eteocle. However, when both brothers die in a battle, the king Creon decrees that only Eleocles deserves the honorable ritual of burial whereas Polyneices must be left unburied. When Antigone learns about this, she decides to bury his brother herself. As soon as Creon is informed about Antigone’s decision, the king thinks that burying her alive in a tomb is the only punishment for her horrible deed. However, the heroine hangs herself after she is pushed in a tomb. Haemon, Creon’s son, tries to attack the king, but later he kills himself as soon as he finds Antigone’s body. The story is based on the famous Greek tragedy Antigone written by Sophocles in 441 BC. The play, in its turn, is an extended version of Theban legend. Despite the fact that the film is based on fictional characters, it is premised on historical context as well. In particular, Antigone dates to the epoch of national rebellion in 441, when imperialist movement was on the rise. The story also relates to numerous military expeditions of Greek leaders to expand imperial control and power. In the play, Sophocles criticizes anarchy and makes direct references to Athens. In general, the play does not touch on patriotic themes. On the contrary, it refers to analysis of moral themes typical of those times. The movie was set in Greece and it features Greek landscapes and ancient interiors so that the atmosphere was skillfully rendered by the director. In the movie, several locations have been used, the mountainous setting, the buildings reminding of ancient Greek palaces, and the caves where the main characters were buried. In such a way, the director has managed to describe the epoch, as well as demonstrate what challenges that main heroes faced. While watching the actor’s clothing and the building
Summary In both 2011 and 2012, the issue that was most discussed in America was the issue to do with addressing the budget deficit. In 2011, it was struggling to recover from unemployment but this continued to persist as a national disaster (Krugman A21). Unfortunately, there was a misconception that the disconnected Congress was the cause of the suffering of the common person in America. People blamed the political culture for some of the failures and struggles in the nation. Despite the fact that people in Washington talk about debt and deficit, they have no idea about what they are referring to. It is also unfortunate that those who talk most about it have the least knowledge about it. The so-called experts in the field of economics, who are relied upon by the Congress for such information, have been recorded to have provided false information severally. They have repeatedly provided false information concerning the short-term effects of budget deficits. Heritage foundation provided forecasted that interest rates would soar high. It also seems that information about the long-term effects of budget deficit is also unknown to the Americans. The politicians’ understanding about debt seems to be very wrong. Many Americans are worried about the effects of the deficits in the future. They believe that they will need to pay back the money they have been borrowing. In order to pay the interest, taxes must be levied. This would also impose some costs on the economy. This would occur because it would cause allocation of resources in ventures other than those that are productive in order to avoid and evade tax. However, these costs are not as dramatic as what some have thought it to be. Various governments easily lived with high taxation rates earlier than they are able to live with currently. The situation is different now. Therefore, debt surely matters to any economy. The American government needs to increase government spending in order to get the country out of the unemployment trap. Critique The national debt of a given country is the cumulative sto
This paper aims to investigate the relationships between context aware applications and requirements engineering. In particular it is necessary to discuss the peculiarities of the solutions which are able to respond to the changes in environment and show how the emergence of such programs impacts the process of design and development. We will also focus on such concepts as context and environment and illustrate their connection to software and systems engineering. Overall, requirements engineering can be interpreted as the discipline, which aims to determine functions, goals and constraints of software solutions (Laplante, 2007, p 44). Its major purpose is to identify the needs of the customers, the situation in which the product will be used; its life cycle and other characteristics like design (Hull et al, 2007; Young, 2004). The emergence of context aware applications has produced a profound effect on this science, its principles, and decision-making process. Modern information technologies do not operate irrespective of environment (time, location, season or even temperature); on the contrary; they seek to derive data about it and use it for the benefit of the client (Schilit et at 1994). This is why IT developers attempt to make their solutions more sensitive to particular circumstances. In this regard, we need to mention some of the difficulties which they frequently face: for example, the definition of such notion as context. In other words, they need to identify what information is needful for the system. Most importantly, they have to work out meth
The European art of the late 19 th century is characterized by the painters’ focus on depicting women as the main subject of their works. In spite of the fact that many artists of the 19 th century worked to portray females in their paintings, the authors’ styles and approaches to representing the women’s nature and their role in the society differ significantly, as it can be understood with references to the works painted by John Everett Millais, Dante Gabriel Rossetti, Aubrey Beardsley, and Gustav Klimt. In his work Mariana , Millais represents his vision of a medieval woman living in the Victorian idea, as it was typical for the Pre-Raphaelites’ paintings in the 19 th century. The woman becomes the main subject of the art works in the late part of the 19 th century, but artists choose to refer to the traditions of the Middle Ages in depicting females. Thus, Mariana depicted in Millais’ painting seems to be rather static, distant, and weary, as it is common for the representations of women according to the Gothic traditions. The females in the Pre-Raphaelites’ paintings of the discussed period are associated with enigma and melancholy valued in the Victorian works. John Everett Millais, Mariana, 1850-1851 The opposite image of a seductive female is observed in the painting of the other Pre-Raphaelite, Dante Gabriel Rossetti. His Bocca Baciata depicts a woman who is traditionally isolated and melancholic, but now she can be discussed as an erotic subject. The woman’s long vivid hair, bright rose lips, full neck and face, and the unbuttoned dress attract the viewer’s attention and make think about seduction. The title of the painting translated as the ‘kissed lips’ can add to focusing on the sexual associations. Dante Gabriel Rossetti, Bocca Baciata, 1859 If the woman in Bocca Baciata is a seductress, the woman in Aubrey Beardsley’s The Climax is an embodiment of a masculinized female person who is rather equal to men. The image of depicted Salome is provocative for the Victorian era because this portrayed woman makes the male dominance in the world rather questionable. Salome is depicted as a sinister and cruel androgynous person who is not associated with beauty. Aubrey Beardsley, The Climax, 1893 The late part of the 19th century is associated with the representations of females in the works by Gustav Klimt (1862-1918). Klimt also focused on depicting women as seductresses, but he chose to put their images in interesting contexts in order to accentuate the beauty. Klimt’s Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer I is an example of depicting the woman with the help of gold leaves and intensive colors in order to emphasize the nature of the female as a goddess. The technique of ornamentation adds to creating the isolated image of
Introduction An organisation that is planning to build good relationships with customers cannot evade investing in customer service. With regard to Turban et al. (2002), “customer service encompasses a series of activities designed to enhance the level of customer satisfaction – that is, the feeling that a product or service has met the customer expectation” (p.23). Arguably, customer service entails giving services to customers of an organisation before and after making purchases. Across all industries, customer service plays an amicable role in fostering the success of a business. In most organisations, customer service is an integral part of marketing since its focus is on helping consumers to make purchases. H
Change is constant in the techno world. This is evident through the numerous innovations witnessed in the multi-billion industry over the past few decades. Of course, most of them, including high speed internet connectivity and social media, have significantly affected human life (Gibson, 2013). Equally, the future looks bright and the sector is expected to experience more advanced innovations in the near, mid, and long-run periods that can effectively handle day-to-day management issues. Some of the notable advancements that are likely to further transform the industry include 6G network, driverless car, Project Loon, Smart-Cup, and Mobile Bluetooth keyboard. The 6G innovation is one of the greatest technologies that are likely to be rolled out in the near-term in order to meet consumer and business needs. In addition to enhancing connectivity, the network will offer lifeline communications and broadcast services. Its predominant potential benefit is increase in bandwidth to as high as 100 Gbit/s upstream accordingly easing congestion in the increasingly growing market. On the other hand, the innovation may lead to negative ramifications on the environment due to fact that it must be powered by sophisticated machinery. Conversely, mobile Bluetooth keyboard is also likely to be a leading innovation in the near-term period. This is a project that intends to give computer users the flexibility that comes with working from various positions due to the fact that it will employ wireless technology (Richardson, 2010). The noticeable benefit of the project is that it will reduce the ingestion of harmful substances into the body. On the contrary, it may be a form of carcinogen due to the reason that it makes use of ions. Also, it is feasible that future innovations will be geared towards solving health-related issues. One of the projects that may facilitate the realization of this noble goal is a SmartCup, which will feature an application capable of recording its content temperature. Undoubtedly, t
Introduction The health care industry should provide society with significant benefits. To achieve it, medical professionals perform their duties and should abide by the law to avoid harming individuals. Thus, the Public Health Service investigators did their best to observe Alabama laws regarding dissection and autopsy in the mid-20 th century. At the same time, they ignored their professional codes for human experimentation, and the Tuskegee Study revealed it. This paper will demonstrate that this discrepancy was caused by the absence of government regulations in the field of medical experiments. Main body The initial purpose of the Tuskegee Study was to determine what effects untreated syphilis could have and how it was possible to treat African Americans who had this disease. That is why the first documents about the experiment stated useful information. For example, it was mentioned that “morbidity in the male Negroes with untreated syphilis far exceeds that in a comparable presumably nonsyphilitic group” (Warner & Tighe, 2001, p. 392). Even though the original intentions were good, the study became infamous because the researchers did not warn the participants about all possible consequences. The scientists were free to do it because there were no government regulations concerning the topic. However, the Tuskegee Study revealed legal inefficiencies, and the National Commission for the Protection of Human Subjects of Biomedical and Behavioral Research appeared in 1974 (CDC, n.d.). In addition to that, there appeared regulations that “required researchers to get voluntary informed consent from all persons taking part in studies” (CDC, n.d., para. 3). Conclusion In conclusion, the members of the Tuskegee Study were mistreated because there were no rules or laws that could help avoid it. However, when the experiment faced much criticism, government bodies decided to develop some regulations to prevent similar situations from happening in the future. Even though the Tuskegee Study had a detrimental impact on many African Americans, it made the health care industry draw more attention to ethical considerations.
