Introduction Purpose of report This research is claimed to compare, analyze and estimate the theories of added value by examining the T.G.I. Friday’s Corporation. After the research is made, it will be possible to compare TGI Friday’s corporation with the other companies of the fast-food industry, thus making an important contribution to the development of economic science and market analysis. Investigating the issues of the relevant added value theories, and the presentation of T.G.I. Friday’s, added value concepts will be evaluated and analyzed within the organization, and also recommendations and conclusions will be given. One of the primary aims of the report is to highlight the vital importance of delivering added value in the sphere of a hospitality business. Importance of delivering added value The obviousness of delivering added value is quite open and understandable. Any enterprise which practices the DAV concepts has much more chances for success incompetence, as the main aim of these concepts is to help to succeed. The concepts of added value have always been regarded comprehensively as the marketing strategies in order the corporation or enterprise could be competent within the hospitality industry, and it is important to find the location for the organization with added value in the market, in order the significant benefits could be achieved. The value concept is usually defined as the price of some definite achievement or object in relation to the needs of an individual (or organization) at the exact time. de Chernatony, Harris, and Riley (2000) implied the three categories of value, which integrated pricing, consumer behavior, and strategic value. As customers attain the top level of value, they are willing to stay with the enterprise. It is suggested that customers care about the relations with a service organization where they found that is important, and it is also provided that they expect to gain extra benefits from the related costs. The added value concepts specify how the company builds up steady and stable relations with customers. It identifies the necessary contribution that corporations can make to improving services. Moreover, service enterprise needs to grow stably in the concerns of fast-changing trends and globalization; delivering added value can be the instrument for positioning and supporting its brand. A strong brand allows customers to recognize the top value of the services or goods, hence, it can ret
Nike of Samothrace is a marble statue which was created in c. 190 BC. The statue is 3.28m high and it can be regarded as an illustration of Hellenistic art. It was unearthed on the island of Samothrace in the Aegean. Dr. Harris and Dr. Zucker stress that this statue is an example of Greek art. For example, the sculptor paid a lot of attention to every detail. The viewer can see every detail of the goddess’ drapery. Moreover, the viewer can also see feathers in the goddess’ wings. Furthermore, the statue is an illustration of Greek’s cult of the human body. The viewer can see the muscles which are carved in detail. For example, the figure’s abdominal muscles are made very realistically. At the same time, Dr. Harris and Dr. Zucker note that the statue is different from the majority of Greek statues as it is in motion. Almost all Greek statues are “reserved” figures. However, it seems that Nike of Samothrace is moving in several directions. The goddess is standing on her feet but her body is moving upwards. Her wings are moving backward. It seems that strong winds are moving the goddess’ drapery and wings. This motion can be easily explained as Nike was the messenger of the gods. Of course, this goddess was always moving and the statue is also in motion. The sculptor creates a real messenger that is on her way. Notably, researchers think that statue was placed on the prow of some marble ship and it was a part of a temple. Of course, this statue stressed the importance and power of Greek gods and ancient Greeks worshiped them. Dionysiac Frieze Dionysiac frieze is in Villa of the Mysteries which is situated outside the walls of the city of Pompeii. It was created c. 79 BC. The fresco is 15 x 22 feet. Researchers think that the fresco shows some rituals of the cult of Dionysus. However, researchers are still not sure what the frescos really mean. The fresco is on the three walls of a room with a window and a door. The viewer can see the sea from the window. Dr. Harris and Dr. Zucker note that the villa was very close to the sea, but the eruption of Vesuvius made
Human nature and morals that people possess have been questioned for a long time. It is often debated where feelings of kindness or aggression come from and the biological theme has taken a few attempts to give explanations. The article “Selfless Gene” by Olivia Judson, provides biological bases for altruism and kindness but in fact, it is a mix of both human social cooperation and natural environment. The study of genetics and DNA has led to some discoveries that help determine which particular biological mechanisms are responsible for the individual characteristics between people. But the reality continues to confirm that the study of social and psychological life can yield better understanding for the reason of why people love or hate. Altruism is one of the qualities that can be traced to the animal world and baboons and chimpanzees have been closely studied to confirm the findings. It has been shown that cooperation in groups leads to better strength and health of the group and this can be connected to Darwin’s natural selection theory. It is undoubtedly evident that a group is much stronger than one individual and communication and mutual goals will lead to better and faster results. The article cites Darwin when talking about war and that it might be the cause for people uniting, thus it would be beneficial for them to survive. This point met some opposition, as natural selection was not attributable here. The general outline of natural selection is that an individual who is strongest will survive and transfer their strong genes to their kin. But it is possible to conclude that in time of war people are even more interested in preserving their genes. No matter how developed people in the past were, they understood that they will not be able to lead a war against a group of people by themselves. The self-preservation instinct led them to look for people who would cooperate with that individual or several and join into a group of cooperating members. In the end, this would ensure a better chance that
Scenario In 2010, Peter Miller was imprisoned due to the participation in a group that was engaged in illegal arms sales. The members of the group had no license and violated other laws, while the brother of the convict was also suspected to be a part of this group, his guilt was not proved. When Miller was released from prison in 2018, the instigator, Adam Green, decided to make sure that he would not relapse into criminal behavior. After receiving a warrant, the investigator attached a Global Positioning System (GPS) device to Miller’s vehicle to be aware of his movements. Within a year of monitoring, Green discovered that Miller started to gather his previous accomplices, and a new crime was conducted. The key question is whether the actions of Green as an investigator using GPS were legal or not? Answer I (Issue) – This case focuses on the behaviors of Miller, the released convict, and Green, the investigator. The issue for the trial court is to decide whether Green was eligible to attach the GPS device for the purpose of monitoring and trespass or not. R (Rule) – Under the Fourth Amendment, unreasonable searches are prohibited, and warrants are to be issued. In United States v. Jones, the judges decided that personal effects of the defendant were trespasses, but the further search was in consistence with the Fourth Amendment. A (Analysis) – In this case, Miller faced the violation of his rights since the actions of the investigator were unconstitutional. However, the search by police was appropriate as the warrant was obtained before installing the GPS device. C (Conclusion) – Therefore, Miller is liable for privacy violation, while the search conducted by the investigator to reveal criminal activity was reasonable.
Paulo Freire made an astute observation when he said that the teacher-student relationship has a narrative characteristic and therefore in the process of teaching: “The contents, whether values or empirical dimensions of reality, tend in the process of being narrated to become lifeless and petrified” (Freire, p.318). This is the reason why the author contended that a conventional teaching style is ineffective and downright boring. However, the actual use of narration is not the main culprit; Freire pointed out that it is the “banking” style of teaching that explains the ineffective and lifeless teaching outcome. But when pressed for an alternative Freire’s response cannot be considered as the best solution to the problem. Thus, it is best for teachers to learn to adapt between the “banking” type of teaching and the “problem-posing education” methodology that was proposed by Freire. In almost every classroom in the world today one can see a teacher speaking to a classroom full of students. The classroom can be “virtual” but still there is one single voice of authority that the students listen to as if under the influence of maestro conducting a symphony. They nod their head in agreement to every word that comes out of the mouth of the teachers and seldom can one hear a dissenting voice that challenges the ideas thrown to the class. According to Freire, “This is the ‘banking” concept of education, in which the scope of action allowed to the students extends only as far as receiving, filing, and storing the deposit” (Freire, p.318). There is very limited interaction between students and teachers. In reaction Freire said, “Education must begin with the solution of the teacher-student contradiction, by reconciling the poles of the contradiction so that both are simultaneously teachers and students” (Freire, p.319). In other words equality must also be demonstrated in the classroom and not just in the political realms. However, Freire made it clear that “Knowledge emerges only through invention and re-invention, through the restless, impatient, continuing, hopeful inquiry human beings pursue in the world, with the world, and with each other” (Freire, p.320). Aside from the lack of creativity and the inability to inspire the students to go beyond the syllabus, this type of teaching sends a negative message. Freire contends that this system mirrors the inner-workings of an oppressive society (Freire, p.320). This means using techniques to develop docile minds and perpetuate an environment of conformity and mediocrity. Think of North Korea, Taliban controlled Afghanistan and it is evident that authority figures can produce students that cannot learn beyond what was taught within the four walls of the classroom. In societies wherein democratic ideals are not part of the norm then this problem is multiplied in a significant manner and produces a society that cannot break free from the shackles of poverty and backward thinking. If Freire is absolutely correct then he can pr
Introduction In many countries which were colonized and most especially the African nations, have for a long time been consuming the education systems designed by their colonial masters. Despite having said that a lot of changes have been adopted from the colonial type of education systems to those systems which are more likely focused on solving the problems of the local people and not the education which is focused on the objectives and solving the problems of their colonial masters. This is because the needs and problems of various countries vary greatly and thus the problems and the needs which are being addressed by a particular education system should also vary and be specifically designed for those particular problems and needs. A good educational system is the one which is able to prepare its young task to be in a position to fit well in the job market both nationally and also internationally and also equip the young people with the adequate skills to coexist well with their environment. It was the retail business people from Europe who initially led to development of some schools called the castle schools along the coast regions of the Ghana and then progressively spread to the other parts of the country. With time the nationals of Ghana become so conscious of the need and importance of higher education and this led to the development of a national university in Fante land and this university reflected so much on Ghanaians people in terms of their passion for their language, traditional practices and institutions. In around 1920s people had extreme desire to form what was to be called West Africa University but when the colonial offices were requested by the then governor of Ghana they could not offer any financial support to the realization of the much desired West Africa University. As a result of frustration in failing to realize their dream they struggled and started the Achimota College which had good facilities in terms of land, good infrastructure and a compound which was richly beautified. The library of this college was also well stocked with adequate and most relevant books which made it to be voted as the best library in vote carried out in Britain in around 1940s. The Achimota College prepared teachers for kindergarten, primary and secondary education training (Graff 1). This college also undertook some classes for university courses in order to prepare the learners for international examination on these courses. In this study we are going to look at the education system in Ghana. We will address the various levels of educational system in which the education system is divided in Ghana. Among these educational systems we have the kindergarten which is also called the nursery school, the primary school, junior secondary school, senior secondary school and the university level of education along with other tertiary col
The achievements of Charles V cannot be underestimated. Charles V was a Holy Roman Emperor and a King of Aragon and Castile. He was the heir of four leading royal houses in Europe and managed to unite Spain, Sicily, the Holy Roman Empire, Naples, Burgundian Netherlands, and Spanish colonies in Northern America. At the time of his reign, he was the richest person in the world. Even though historians still argue whether his reign was beneficial for the territories he controlled, it is undoubted that under his reign the Holy Roman Empire, as well as Spain, were prosperous, economically developed, and politically stable. He was accepted as a foreigner; nevertheless, he contributed to the development of territories united by him. Charles V combined the heritage of German Habsburgs and the heritage of Spain. He transcended national as well as ethical boundaries. In early childhood, he was influenced by the courtly life and culture of Burgundian Low Counties. He spoke five different languages fluently and learned Spanish as it was a required condition for becoming king of Castile. Charles V inherited close relationships with the kings of France. Paris was the greatest city in Europe at that time and Charles V was working to enrich the city even more. Interestingly, Spain was the foundation of his kingdom, however, Charles V was perceived as a foreign prince. Charles V was tutored by Pope Adrian VI and was educated in religion and history. Nevertheless, Charles V made it dangerous for Christian ships to travel in the Mediterranean Sea. He captured Christian ships and turned people into slaves who ewer sold to the Middle East. His actions towards Christians distorted the economic well-being of Europe. However, Charles V was the first to unite Seventeen Provinces under his rule in 1549. The territory of Low Countries was very important for Empire because of the developed trade and industry. The economically advanced territory made a vital contribution to the treasury of the Empire. Charles united Castile and Aragon as well. Even though negotiations were difficult, Charles agreed to fulfill all conditions. In particular, he had to learn the Castilian language, could not appoint foreigners, and could not take precious metals from the region. Before Charles V, Spanish monarchs were bound by law, while Charles became an absolute monarch. Charles was criticized for the poor management of the Castilian territory. In particular, resistance against him rose because he imposed heavy taxes and selected Flemings for his offices. Thus, Castilians were held responsible for recovering funds spent on wars abroad by
This paper is aimed at discussing the ongoing Syrian Civil War which broke out in 2011. Much attention should be paid to the current outcomes of this confrontation and its impact on international relations. Moreover, it is critical to discuss the hypothetical development of this conflict. These are the main issues that should be discussed in greater detail. Among the major sides of this conflict, one can distinguish the supporters of the supporters of Bashar al-Assad’s government, the rebels representing the opposition, and the so-called Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS). One should keep in mind that some organizations such as the ISIS have their own agenda that is not democratic or liberal. It should be noted that this confrontation split the international community. In particular, the opposition was supported by the United States, Turkey, and Qatar whereas the current Syrian government was backed up by Russia (Hashmi 269). Each of these countries provided weapons to the conflicting sides and to some degree, their strategies intensified the war. It should be mentioned that this conflict affected other countries located in this region. One should first mention millions of refugees who had to flee to other counties such as Iraq, Jordan, or Turkey (Hammerstad 254). Moreover, one should mention that this confrontation profoundly affected Iraq. The main problem is that one of the conflicting sides known as the ISIS took control over the territories in this country. The main problem is that ISIS is now perceived by political leaders as a dire threat, even in comparison with the government of Bashar al-Assad. This organization is not recognized as a legitimate state; nevertheless, it becomes more powerful in terms of its military capacity. This is one of the dangers that should not be overlooked. Overall, it is possible to argue that the Syrian Civil War has already led to disastrous outcomes. At first, one should speak about thousands of casualties that could have different political affiliations. Additionally, one should consider the destroyed infrastructure because this factor leads to the deterioration of living conditions. Moreover, international agencies speak about the spread of contagious diseases that were very rate in the past (Newman and DeRouen 110). Finally, much attention should be paid the rising levels of crime throughout the country because in many regions, law-enforcement agencies became dysfunctional or virtually non-existent (Newman and DeRouen 110). Thus, it is possible that this conflict has significantly hindered the social and economic development of Syria and threatened its very survival as a state. In turn, the future impacts of this conflict may not be easily predicted, because the confrontation has not come to an end. In this case, there is a g
The use of a documentary as a tool of education is considered an advancement of contemporary teaching strategies. However, it is important to acknowledge that a documentary is classified as alternative visual rhetoric. The use of media such as film, television, and hypertext in conveying the documentary’s content is intriguing. In this context, the importance of ensuring that the audience is interested in the documentary’s content is critical. Therefore, the use of ethos, logos, and pathos in a documentary is necessary. Ethos is derived from the concept of ethics. In this regard, the element of ethics is expected in a documentary. For example, how the documentary content is delivered to the audience should reveal the speaker’s moral character. Moreover, the speaker or author of a documentary should be knowledgeable about the subject matter. The authority in which the documentary is delivered to the audience or reader should be decisive. The character of the author or film director should provoke confidence among the audience. More so, the intention of delivering a documentary that the audience can cognitively understand is subject to good interest. Logos refers to the use of logical argument in a documentary. For a documentary to be deemed effective about the intended purpose, using logic is a necessity. The audience of a documentary follows the logic and rational thinking to understand what is communicated through a documentary. or example, the use of rhetorical syllogism is common when stating facts that do not require scientific reasoning. The use of logos is appropriate in instances where facts or statements require assumption. For example, it is assumed that all human being die irrespective of religious affiliations. Also, logic is effectively deducted if the use of probabilities is included in a rhetorical argument. In this context, a documentary is based on probabilities rather than the commonly held truths. From this perspective, a documentary that relates to human problems allows the audience to contemplate of whether there are alternatives towards solving the same issue. Therefore, the author or producer of a documentary must base the content of the same on the
The existence of Almighty has often been a matter of debate. Many scholars and philosophers have been trying to prove that God exists. There are several theories, modern and traditional, that tend to explain that God exists. However, none of the theories have enough evidence that supports their claims. From an ontological perspective, the theory tends to argue that people believe in the Almighty, who cannot be compared with anything else. From this premise, the Almighty must indeed be omnipresent. If that extraordinary being is God, then God must be in existence (Klass & Weisgrau, 1999). However, this argument is based on abstract ideas. The greatest being the theory is talking about is theoretical. To claim that something exists because of people’s beliefs is erroneous. The same argument can indeed be advanced for any other thing besides God (Klass & Weisgrau, 1999). It is because other marvelous things that cannot be conceived can either be an object or not specifically God, as the argument claims. Further, to argue that this magnificent thing exists is a presupposition. Critically, something that exists must be seen or felt. It must be proven that it is there unquestionably. Therefore, to describe the extraordinary thing (God) as existing, yet it cannot be proved is a presupposition or an assumption. Because this argument lacks tangible proof on its claims, it cannot be used to assert that God exists. The arguments presented do not imply that the Almighty is nonexistent (Klass & Weisgrau, 1999). Rather, the arguments advanced by the ontological view do not provide clear proof that God exists.
