Small business is the most essential element of a market economy, without which the state cannot develop harmoniously. Small business largely determines the rate of economic growth, the structure, and quality of the gross national product, so the role of small business in society cannot be underestimated. The business strives to become a social and manageable process by creating and disseminating value and opportunities for exchange (Branham, 2014). It forces social groups to get what they need and want, forming a positive image of this process. Depending on the specialization of a small enterprise, the focus on production varies. For example, the value for food truck consumers is that sellers create a special menu to increase profits based on an analysis of customer needs. One of the most important advantages is mobility, which allows you to be available almost anytime, anywhere. Unlike other catering establishments, entrepreneurs do not need to attract visitors; the food truck can come to them. In one day, a food truck can visit several city areas, and feed thousands of residents there. Another advantage is that you do not have to pay for the premises’ rent; it is enough to purchase a van or trailer car. The main problem is the issue of the unregulated legal field for the placement of mobile objects in the urban environment today. In addition, this type of business is not stable in terms of earnings, as it largely depends on the season, as well as the location of the restaurant. The difficulty is also caused by the fact that, according to the laws, product quality checks and working conditions of mobile restaurants are no different from ordinary ones. Entrepreneurs have many different characteristics that distinguish them from the general population. Entrepreneurs are a category of risk-takers who are prone to ambiguity and uncertainty. They also experience independence, improved quality of life, and inner satisfaction from running their organizations. The desire of an entrepreneur to become independent and work for himself contributes to his development, which is also focused on consumers. The type of entrepreneurship presented in the video is franchising, as there is an ECDI organization where start-up people in business receive support from a non-profit organization. The franchisor helps start-up businesses with marketing, social media, and food safety ( ABC News , 2013). It also gets in touch and finds places to do its job
Events after the fall of the Holy Roman Empire After the fall of the Holy Roman Empire in 476 came the establishment of Germanic kingdoms. The fall was precipitated by the Holy Roman Empire allowing peoples other than Romans to serve in the Roman Army. These peoples did not fight as passionately as someone who was defending their homeland. Despite the fall of the empire the papacy continued to bestow titles on individuals within the empire. After the fall of the Holy Roman Empire a chaotic environment of invasions, marriages, revolts, killings, and conversions to Christianity took place. Those who ruled the kingdoms welcomed titles bestowed upon them by the papacy. Although remnants of the Holy Roman Empire still exists (Pope, Catholicism with worldwide following) it has nowhere near the power it had prior to 476 A.D. The Empire and the papacy remain in Rome alone (Vatican City) but have religious significance only as the leader of the Catholic Church. The Popes still holds respectable power when it comes to opinions and religious observance of its followers. The Germanic kingdoms included areas invaded by Germanic tribes such as the Burgundians, Alemanians, and the Langobardians. Interestingly, the Burgundians occupied a portion of territory in Switzerland that remains a French speaking area today. This remnant from the past reflects the time when the Franks took over the Burgundians and influenced both the language and culture of the Burgundians. The most destabilizing factor that influenced society at that time was the taking, and retaking, of territory and subdiv
CNA career development proposes every professional nurse great opportunity to become a real professional in this field. CNA makes a difference for me because it meets my personal values career goals. CNA’s philosophy of healthcare will help me to become a passionate and dedicated nurse. Entering the CNA program, I would be able to develop my personal skills and master professional knowledge in patients with special needs. I suppose that the main qualities of a CNA nurse are based on universal principles of ethics and morality. They include dignity at the mercy of patients and openness, sensitivity to individual needs and patience, personal aspiration and commitment to work, humanism and tolerance. CNA makes a difference for me because it promotes openness, impartiality and objectivity in assessing the validity of the beliefs of oneself and others, and a willingness to revise beliefs as new evidence comes to light. Also, it is important for a CNA nurse to possess critical thinking and an awareness of the consequences of one’s actions in rational decision-making, and to the need for patients to develop a critical response to the attitudes and values. I suppose that nursing should be based on a moral responsibility to facilitate mediation. The CNA philosophy is based on the idea that a nurse should be well informed about ethical issues in nursing, have moral knowledge and have a complex range of learned skills and guided experience that will enhance their ability to act wisely and creatively as reflective moral agents when confronted with moral problems, to anticipate moral problems and take the necessary action to prevent them from occurring in the first place; to think critically and reflectively about emergent and emerging moral issues. I am a dedicated and passionate person, I developed a passion for nursing professionals when familiarizing myself with CNA. This situation helps me to choose my life path and profession. I recognize that CNA nurses are both psychological and physical caregivers and human values such as compassion and concern based on cultural knowledge should be the main priority in this profession. Every nurse should take into account the social environment in order to inspire and empower enthusiasm in others. Nursing values involve psychosocial, spiritual and physical factors of care. I am a determined person who pays attention to detail, loves people and is able to help others. CNA makes a difference because it treats patients as close people who need care and support.

After the first wave of Orwellian-like dystopias, it might have seem that the humankind is fed up with all kinds of ideas about the idea of introducing future as the time of hatred, prejudice and totalitarianism. However, the idea appeared to be too enthralling to leave it rot, and in the second half of XX to XXI century, it has spawned a large number of movies and novels. Three specimens of these movies and novels are going to be considered in the given paper. Although the plots of V for Vendetta , Blade Runner and Parable of the Sower do not seem to cross at any point, all of them make one speculate on the fragile balance between the people representing one school of political thought and the groups of others. Each of the above-mentioned stories represents an image of a post-human, and, needless to say, this image is rather deplorable in the best traditions of Orwellian novels. Each of the leading characters in the movies and the novel, V, Blade Runner and Olamina have nothing else left to fight for. Yet they fight for the sake of ancient, an-eye-for-an-eye kind of justice. In a way, they succeed; at least, they manage to reach their state of enlightenment, even though their revelation comes at a cost of their lives. It is worth asking a question, why disturbing ideas like these would be so popular among the general public. While fighting for freedom does seem quite exciting, the prospects of spending one’s life as a maniac trying to survive in a den of snakes is not so great after all. However, the attractiveness of the movies and stories that focus on the story of a rebel and have the only-the-strong-survive idea as a basis can be explained from the standpoint of Darwin’ theory. Indeed, in every single plot that has been mentioned above, the idea that a man will never lose the will to fight is present, which sums Darwin’s research in a nutshell. Moreover, there is certain link between the ideas of the movies and Darwin’s speculation about the game and the vermin: If not one head of the game were shot during the next twenty years in England, and, at the same time, no vermin were destroyed, there would, in all probability, be less game than at present, although hundreds of thousands of game are annually shot. (Darwin 198). Therefore, if considering that the rebellious characters in the stories were “game”, while the authorities were the “vermin,” the
Abstract Medium specificity is a concept that is very common in film theory in the world of arts today. It basically means a piece of art or artistic medium that represents the characteristics and qualities of the raw material from which it is made. This study looked at medium specificity, life, death and temporality of images in films from the perspective of Bus 174. The study adopted a phenomenological case study design. The researcher looked at the various film theories and how they conceptualize image on one hand and life and death on the other. This was by using Bus 174 as the reference point. Introduction Background Information Medium specificity is a concept that is popular in the film industry today. The concept can be looked at by defining the two terms that make it up and then relating them to art as media. The two terms can be defined separately so as to get a deep insight into the concept. They can be defined from the perspectives of different scholars. As Bernstein (2012) states, the word ‘specificity’ is used to describe a scenario in the arts or to depict the specific nature of events as they occur in the environment. Medium on the other hand is the original material used in making art and which is brought about through creativity on the part of the artist. The two words are also used within the context of life, death and temporality of images as far as film as a form of art is concerned. So far the researcher has looked at the two concepts differently. At this juncture, the author will look at the two words together and analyse the meaning they convey when combined. The term ‘medium specificity’ implies that the ‘character’ expressed by the work of art reflects the original ‘character’ or state of the components used in compiling it. In other words, a piece of art that is ‘medium specific’ takes the forms of the raw materials from which it was made. The two terms therefore are linked and are very significant in art today. Under different circumstances, the term ‘medium specificity’ exhibits the actual phenomenon that exists in the artistic environment. This process of imitating the actual or original raw material is referred to as the effect . It is noted that that medium specificity takes into consideration several effects. For instance, when paint is used to cover a given surface, it takes the shape of the surface being painted. The paint assumes the structure and appearance of the canv
Introduction Dogmatism essentially refers to strict adherence to rules and procedures at the expense of reason and alternative views. The opposite of dogmatism can therefore be referred to as rationalism. Dogmatism is essentially a leadership approach practiced by many leaders across the globe and has its own advantages and disadvantages. This study will however focus on the dangers of dogmatism with regards to the leadership approaches adopted by Martin Luther King Jr and Plato. This analysis will be analyzed in two segments of the study where the first approach
Introduction Al-Rahba hospital pays great attention to the accuracy of test results. Among the procedures dedicated to the attainment of this goal are correlation and validation of results. All Al-Rahba laboratories take care of tests’ consistency and deal with inconsistent outcomes in accordance with the policies. Definition of Correlation and Validation Correlations of results present the most crucial part of laboratory practice. Correlation is the process of comparing the outcomes of two or more laboratory tests with the aim of checking their accuracy. With the help of correlation, laboratory specialists are able to find any inconsistencies or errors (1). Therefore, this process is of utmost importance since any error may be detrimental to patients. Inaccuracy in lab results is unacceptable in Al-Rahba where all measures are taken to provide the highest quality of treatment. Correlation is synonymous with the association: both of these concepts presuppose a measure of comparing two or more variables. Carrying out the correlation of results and investigations is the requirement of the Joint Commission Accreditation Process and is considered a constituent of high-quality laboratory practice (2). Correlation has to be performed between any lab instruments that run the same analysis in the same laboratory. Also, the requirement concerns the assays performed in primary and backup laboratories within the same healthcare facility. It is crucial for lab technologists and assistants to confirm that all results obtained within their laboratory are identical. In another case, there is a threat to the health of the patients using the services of such institutions. The procedure of correlation presupposes calibration and validation of all instruments. Validation is the process of affirming that allows ensuring that the assay system will appropriately “recover the concentration or activity” of the measured substance (2). Validation provides objective evidence by means of a process definition that the test’s performance is kept within the requirements. Validation incorporates the following aspects concerning the critical evaluation of evidence:   * systematic errors as an outcome of information bias, selection bias, or confounding;   * clinical significance of results;   * quantitative features of treatment and diagnosis;   * external generalizability or validity;   * the effect size and specific features concerning its precision;   * application of the obtained outcomes in practice (3). The protocols, algorithms, and recommendations for the selection of procedures that are to be validated are grounded on clinical studies and hospital policies. Recommendations should be adjusted in each particular case, and the responsibility for validation is on lab technicians and physicians. The Procedure of Validation of New Tests and Batches of Reagents Required for Diagnosis Prior to performing any new tes
Tuberculosis (TB) is a disease which was first isolated by Robert Koch, a German physician in 1882. It is an infectious disease which mostly affects the lungs but it can cause effects to other bodily organs. The causative parasite for Tuberculosis is a bacterium that takes the shape of a rod (measuring two to four micrometers in length and 0.2 to 0.5 micrometers in width), non-motile, and fairly large, called Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The parasite is of the Actinomycetes relationship. The bacterium’s physiology of a 15-20 hour generation time has been thought to result to its virulence. The cell wall is however, due to the presence of concentration of lipids, thought to be the main contributor for the virulence of the bacterium. The bacteria possesses a characteristic of resistance to attack from oxygen radicals among other agents like oxygen radicals, cationic reagents and lysozomes in the phagocytic granules due to, as thought, the lipids-alpha branched type-in the cell wall. They may also render the bacterium unlikely of attack by complement deposition in serum (Todar, 2008). In the mycobacterium family is also the mycobacterium bovis which is the bacteria responsible for causing atypical tuberculosis. They are known as colonizers due to their living together with other bacteria in human bodies, and although they do not cause disease they may cause an illness which is clinically like typical tuberculosis. It is usually difficult to diagnose the types of illnesses that are caused by the atypical mycobacterium since they require repetitive attention by medicines and a period of about 1 and 1 and a half to two years for dosage. Atypical mycobacterium was the often cause of tuberculosis in children but chances have decreased because most of the milk fed to children is now pasteurized. Extrapulmonary TB may develop as a result of the consumption of unpasteurized milk by humans. A disease that is similar to TB and that prevails in people suffering from AIDS is caused by Mycobacterium avium. Leprosy is caused by a similar genus mycobacterium leprae. A human being is the only reservoir for mycobacterium tuberculosis where as the bovis type can reside in cows and humans but is rare in humans (Todar, 2008). How the disease is passed on During the breathing process, very small particles in the air carrying infected sputum from a sick person may be taken in. The infected person may have taken
Introduction The fight against discrimination based on appearance, race, or gender is one of the most widespread in the world. Nowadays, Canada is a country inhabited by different nations which have specific cultures and beliefs. In many Canadian cities, different people of various cultural backgrounds unite in groups and live according to their laws, which differ from Canadian. Consequently, it brings disagreements with the government, and the rights of many nations are infringed. Main body One of the discrimination examples and acts produced to solve this problem is Bill C-31, which is oriented to make changes in the Indian group of people who live on the territory of Canada. According to Day (2018), C-31 is a part of federal legislation that influences indigenous cultures, national rules, and the way of living. Women’s discrimination contributed to the creation of the Indian Act. Before the creation of Bill C-31, females were strongly connected to their husbands, and they did not have individual rights. After the married women had to take the status of their husband even if their initial position in society was higher, the same rule was applied to their children. In case of divorce, women and their kids could not receive the status that they had before marriage. The Canadian government is investing a lot of resources to decrease the discrimination level. However, the country’s society is made of diverse nations, and each has different cultures and traditions. Consequently, the fight against huge problems becomes complicated. Godley (2018) states that the level of discrimination in Canada is one of the highest, and many created acts do not have great power. Indian groups of people who live in Canada are one of the best examples, as according to their traditions, women cannot sue their husbands as they always lose. Nevertheless, the development of the modern world does not stop, and the defense of the rights of Indian women in many cases ends with success. Historically, Indian women who marry someone who does not have Indian roots lose their status in Indian society and do not have a chance to return to their previous life. Furthermore, if the marriage happens with a man who has an Indian relative and is related to Indian society, the women still lose their status in their Indian group. There is only one case when females do not lose their previous status, and it’s the marriage with some from the same group. The Canadian government cannot have a huge influence because these traditional rules are legal, and the desire of government workers cannot destroy the culture of other nations. Even though indigenous people from different cultural backgrounds legally established their laws, violations and abuse of rights remain a major problem for the police and the court. According to Deverge (2016), police are not trained enough to stay competitive in resisting the cultural values of other nations currently located in Canada. The country’s government managed to find the right approach to di
The NHL has gone through rough periods in the last 20 years which were characterized by lockouts and strikes. On 1 st April 1992, NHL voted for a strike and the outcome was overwhelming. Five hundred voters supported the strike while only 4 voters opposed the move (Strang, 2013). This was a clear indication of the general feeling amongst the players. The bone of contention was who between the NHL and the NHLPA had the power to control the players’ marketing rights. Players demanded to have the right to control their marketing rights which were being controlled by the NHL. This included controlling how their pictures are used in posters, trading cards among other media channels (Strang, 2012). The players also raised their concerns with regard to payoff revenues. They lamented that they were not receiving their fair share and they demanded an increase from $ 3.2 million to $ 7.5 million. Among their demands was the increase of the number of games in the regular season from 80 to 84 (Lebrun, 2012). Fortunately, all of these demands were met and the players were back in the field on 11 th April the same year. In September 2004, a lockout that lasted for 310 days ensued after the NHL owners proposed a luxury tax to be imposed on the teams that exceeded the average payroll. The move was unanimously condemned by the union and it was termed as a salary cap. The NHLPA proposed that the lesser teams should be given financial support through the tax charged on the wealthy teams without reviewing the payroll (Dater, 2012). Other problems that influenced the lockout include disagreements on age restriction set for players to become free agents, distribution of playoff revenues, roster sizes, and salary arbitration. Both parties came to a consensus when they settled on a plan to have a salary cap that would be adjusted after every financial year (Deitsch, 2012). The NHL adjusted the age requirements for unrestricted free agency to 27 years by 2009 (Deitsch, 2012). On 15 th September 2012, the NHL experienced yet another lockout that was, like the previous ones, influenced by issues related to the sharing of revenue. The NHL was demanding a superior share of the league’s revenue as well as demanding the adjustment of the Players Contracting Limit (Sportsbusinessdaily.com, 2013). During the 2012 lockout, NHL and NHLPA came to a compromise to split the total revenue by a 50/50 policy which was acceptable to both parties. Nonetheless, the looming lockdowns as outlined were expected with the increased level of corruption in the NHL. Nonetheless, the situation could have been avoided if the commission had listened to the players and addressed their concerns in time. The NHL was not justified to impose taxes on the players in the guise that the money would be used to assist weaker teams. The commission illustrated greed by making major decisions without involving the players. In a nutshell, the commission, in li
