Introduction The project’s research problem is how the support of the Palestinian cause by different university students can transform the major tactics aimed at addressing the challenges many citizens in the troubled region face. The targeted objective is to offer insights and incentives that can inform the current agenda and support the needs of many Palestinians. The proposed research problem is significant because it examines a critical predicament facing both Palestinians and Israelis in the targeted region. Over the years, various initiatives have been put in place in an attempt to promote peace and tranquility. Unfortunately, these efforts have failed to deal with this conflict. When such an issue is analyzed deeply, it can be possible for politicians and policymakers to identify new incentives towards dealing with it. A critical analysis of this problem can encourage many scholars, students, and politicians to support the current Palestinian cause. The completed research study is also expected to present evidence-based ideas that can transform the experiences of many citizens in this troubled region. Literature Review The Palestinian-Israeli conflict is a major upheaval between Palestinians and Israelis that has lasted five decades. Sahin (2017) acknowledges that the establishment of the state of Israel resulted in numerous challenges that continue to affect many Arabs in the region. Some of the contentious issues include water rights, borders, coexistence, and freedom of movement. Most of the efforts put in place to address this problem have not been fruitful. Slater (2015) indicates clearly that the Palestinians’ demand for a sovereign nation is something just and valid. Individuals (both Palestinians and Israelis) living in troubled regions such as the Gaza Strip have not been in a position to achieve their potential. Most of the strategies put in place to address this conflict have failed to deliver positive results. This has been the case despite the fact that many groups and parties have been involved in this upheaval. The Palestinian cause has over the years revolved around various actions and strategies to support the establishment of a democratic state whose citizens live harmoniously with each other. Such an achievement can ensure that every Palestinian living under Israeli military occupation is no longer a slave (Slater, 2015). The success of the Palestinian cause can ens
Introduction As people become increasingly aware of the existence of harmful chemical substances in food, drinking water, air, and generally in the environment as a whole, concerns have also risen. Some other people disregard these concerns as exaggerated or unfair. In order to determine whether there is a potential danger that requires attention and where the focus of our efforts should be and the resources we need for it, a procedure is needed. This tool or procedure is known as Health risk assessment, which government agencies and other parties use to determine the potential hazards that are most significant. Health risk assessment for Herbicide x is as follows. Hazard identification Laboratory findings of herbicides X on rats in several peer-reviewed studies have shown that the herbicide cause cancer in high dosages. There are no studies carried out on humans for Herbicide X. Exposure assessment This stage determines the length of exposure to the chemicals, the amount exposed to, whether exposure was continuous or intermittent, and the method of exposure. Herbicide X is sprayed on the weed in the farms once in spring and once in the fall where it lasts for three months before it degrades to harmless substances. The herbicide, when sprayed settles on the surface of water, leaves, and forage crops that are used to feed animals. The animals also absorb it by breathing contaminated air. Chemicals then enter the food chain where they reach human beings. Herbicide X is also absorbed into the human system by ingestion through water, vegetables, fruits exposed to the herbicide. Children playing in the playground may become exposed through playing in the contaminated dirt when they put their hands and toys into their mouths. There is also the risk of exposure to breastfeeding babies as the chemicals in the herbicide can pass to them through their mothers’ milk. Humans can also become exposed if they consume fish in the rivers around where the herbicide is swept into a surface runoff when it rains. The fish may ingest them with contaminated food particles or absorb them through the skin when they swim through the contaminated water. Dose-Response Assessment In this section an estimate of the amount likely to cause a particular health effe
Introduction The majority of governments and organizations value social justice as a way of upholding quality service delivery. The objective of this paper is to evaluate ethical and social justice values in the Canadian government to show that despite the progress made towards achieving equality and fairness, there are persisting loopholes in the implementation process. This analysis will bring forth a critical review of the emerging and enduring ethical issues facing the Canadian government and responses to these challenges in ensuring sustainable human service delivery within all sectors. Since the societal context of human service delivery is constantly changing, all-time reforms in ethical issues are inevitable. Canada’s journey to a desirable dispensation by the public service can be traced back in 2003 when the government committed to adopt the Values and Ethics Code to govern public service delivery. However, it is necessary to define some of the major terms used in this context. Ethics refers to standards of desirable conduct in professional human service delivery. On the other side, values are defined as beliefs by an organization, which are set to control the choices that workers make to influence service delivery. Rules are a set of certain statements agreed upon to define what is either acceptable or prohibited by an organization (Carniol, 2010). Organizations and the public have huge expectations about the personal conduct of every worker, and thus it is the mandate of every firm to set these regulations in a bid to provide a sustainable and acceptable workplace environment. Despite the endless efforts to reform the ethics and social justice issues in the Canadian government, issues of social injustices, inequality, abuse of human rights, and oppressive working conditions persist in the contemporary times. The role of human service delivery The Canadian public service constitutes one of the most fundamental national entities. The crucial organization of the Canadian legislatures, public officials, and the entire society has a special role in contributing to the continuity and democracy for all Canadians (Knowles & Kaebnick, 2007). The public administration of Canada is mandated with the role of ensuring peace, order, justice, and equity to ensure favorable governance. The Constitution of Canada is a key document since it contains set of rules and regulations that ensure responsible delivery of services. The democratic agenda of the Canadian public service ensures efficient service to the public whilst preserving the welfare of the public servants. The leaders are obligated to preserve public confidence and trust in the service delivery by ensuring that public workers’ concerns are given priority within every department. Values should be articulated in a proper way that guides the professional conduct of the workers from a magnified and democratic perspectiv
How do you feel when your laptop requires repairing, your Internet connection is broken, and your iPhone is left at home? Such perspectives seem to be too dangerous for you? If it is so, you are a representative of a modern digital nation which lives in our digital world. What are the main peculiarities of this world? Why do the representatives of the digital nation differ from the people of, for instance, the 1970 th – 1980 th period? The information is the main concept of the digital world, and the value of the information technologies is the main peculiar feature of the digital nation. Today it is impossible to imagine our society without the Internet, mobile phones, and other technologies which give us the opportunity to access to the great amounts of the information at any place and at any time. New conditions of life which depend on the development of the information technologies create a new pattern of the public’s life style. It is possible to say that the effects of the digital world on our modern life style can be considered as predominantly negative because the progress of the information technologies involves the changes in the typical life style of many people, influences their activities, their consciousness, and relations with the other persons. The debates on the influence of the Internet on the young people’s minds develop since the time when the Internet became such an ordinary part of our everyday life as the television. Nevertheless, it was rather difficult to predict such an expansion of the Internet round the world and determining Web as the giant database or a library which can function as cinema, theatre, and museums at once. According to Adam Gopnik, “the Internet is just a loud and unlimited library in which we now live – as if one went to sleep every night in the college stacks, surrounded by pamphlets and polemics and possibilities” (Gopnik). It is only several years ago researchers began to speak openly about such issues as the negative effects of the Internet on the public’s minds and to develop the necessary investigations. The results of their researches accentuate the fact that every time when we use the Internet connection in order to find the necessary information or to participate in the virtual reality we experience the great impact which is provided by the information from the Internet. This impact is considered as negative because our brains begin to function atypically in order to cope with a lot of the information of different kinds. This controversial information along with the discussion of many other provocative aspects is presented in the project created by Rachel Dretzin and Douglas Rushkoff which and known as Digital Nation (“Digital Nation”). However, those processes which can be observed in our brains when we are involve
Woman with a Parasol – Madame Monet and Her Son is a painting by the French artist Claude Monet, a founder and one of the most outstanding representatives of impressionism. Painted in 1875, this canvas became one of Monet’s most well-known and influential works (Brodskaïa and Kalitina). The two figures in the painting are Monet’s wife Camille and his son Jean. The lower third of the painting shows a grassy area, and the other two-thirds contain the figures of a woman and a little boy behind her. Monet’s wife and child are the focal points of the composition. The lower viewpoint allows seeing the blue sky with white clouds behind the figures, which creates a unique lightning effect (Daily Dose of Art). Placed in the distance from the woman, the boy’s figure also gives depth to the painting; this compositional technique guides the eye of the observer diagonally downward, which was common for several other works by Monet. The use of colors and light in this painting is truly impressive. The sun is shining on the figures from the background, casting a shadow. The strokes of colors are warm, bright, and vibrant, mixed together with the muted grays of the woman’s dress. It reflects a whole range of colors around her: the blues of the sky, the yellow of the flowers, and light, complementary strokes of purple (Joy of Museums Virtual Tours). Monet uses these colors and careless brush strokes to convey an atmosphere of a breezy summer day. Woman with a Parasol is a genre painting, which is a type of art that depicts ordinary people and their everyday activities. Thus, the painting gives the impression that the mother and son were interrupted during their daily walk in the field. It can be suggested that the woman’s dress, veil, and parasol symbolize her status, and the grassy slope symbolizes the countryside that Monet preferred to the cities and industry. Overall, the painting creates a unique mood of a fleeting memory captured in the moment. Works Cited Brodskaïa, Natalia, and Nina Kalitina. The ultimate book on Claude Monet .

Summary According to culture sociology, consumption study has become the most commonly studied branch. The phenomenon can be elaborated through the present globalized society’s developments. Currently, people regard material values since they consider them as the most vital. Consequently, this has contributed to the emergence of novel consumption philosophies. Japan’s social culture has been influenced greatly by the consumption phenomenon. Japan is recognized as the initial non- western country which underwent industrialization successfully without colonization from any other nation. Irrespective of the natural disasters that Japan undergoes through, it is identified as the 2 nd world economics. The consuming ideology’s success is because of the country’s social peculiarities. Status competition is considered an extremely influential variable which affects Japan’s consumption culture. Analysis It is worth noting that in Japan, consumer philosophy’s expansion can be attributed to several factors. These include the history of economic and political development in the country, the society’s stratification and cultural concepts. The present society in Japan is founded on the concepts of bettering the welfare of people. This has been achievable because of the constant material enrichment. Another vital aspect that is worth noting is that the Japanese society is exceptional in because of the presence of consumption researchers. The country’s development history elaborates this succinctly. The political direction that Japan took after the Second World War, the rapid industrialization, and the expanding economy course led to the formation of a society that was consumer- oriented. This occurred within only several decades. Japan has been experiencing solid economic development because of how consumption is portrayed in the nation. Japanese people consider the consumption philosophy as their way of life. This is because many people reside in urban areas, and the nation experiences mind attacks from advertising companies and the mass media constantly. The country has a huge population of 128 million people. This is another factor that is attributable to the solid economic development. People in Japan lead a lifestyle that has accelerated material possession acquisition. People from every social category are actively involved in contributing to consumption sociology in the country
Process capability refers to whether an in-control process is functioning in such a manner that lies entirely within the specification limits, and uses engineering tolerances and/or from the customer’s needs (Ryan 255). Process capability involves two phases: (1) determining how the data are to be collected and collecting the data, (2) selecting one or more indices and performing the computation (Ryan 255). Variation in process capability may occur. Two yardsticks, Cp, and Cpk have become a standard language of quality at its most basic level (Verma, Ajit, and Karanki 262). Cp is strictly a variation index that compares the specification width to the process width” (Fryman 298). The formula for a cp when a two-sided specification limit is present is: Where: usl = the upper specification limit Lsl = lower specification limit 6σ = the process width (mean ±3σ) When evaluating a cp that has a one specification (upper or lower specification) the formula becomes (Fryman 298): The subject of centering leads to a more useful process capability index as opposed to Cp which only focuses on variability. Cpk is a capability index that considers both the central tendency of the process in relation to the specifications and variability of a process (Fryman 298). Cpk formula. Whereas CP considers only variations, cpk considers the central tendency of the process in relation to both specification and variability (Fryman 298). When using cpk, the process mean should be centrally positioned, as opposed to using cp (Fryman 298). The most common rule of thumb is that cp should be between 4 and 6 for satisfactory measurement process (Dealy, Saucier 57). When cp is equal to or greater than 1 the process is capable. This illustrates that the process fits between upper and lower specifications (Sahay 2010). Sahay suggests “if the cpk of a process is greater than 1 then the process is at the center, so the process is capable” (7). Six sigma is a process evaluation model that uses statistical tools to help reduce defects in products(Sahay 6). The six sigma model employs 12-sigmas 6 on each side. In six sigma level, specification limits are known as tolerance and are set during the design of a product (Sahay 6). A process running a six sigma level should produce not more than 3.4 defects per million products. The six sigma level incorporates a 50% variation half of the three sigma level. (Sahay 6)This ensures that the process control. Incase of a 1.5 Sigma deviation the product will stay on course (Sahay 6). A 3-sigma scenario has 6-sigmas 3 on each side. 3-sigma process is sensitive to process change compared to the six sigma process (Sahay 6).

Promotional items/gifts are articles of an organization which are often branded with the logo of that organization and used and used for communication and marketing purposes. Such items are given away to promote products and services of an organization. Promotional products such as pens, coffee mugs, T-shirts and others with the name of a business imprinted on them are very effective when used for that purpose, (Huff 279). Recently, promotional products have been proved to be the best choice of promoting business enterprises’ image, products brands and services. In fact, various studies have come up with Statistics that support this fact. Moreover, they are the promotion alternatives compared to other traditional promotion strategies. The major advantage of mostly used promotional items is that they can reach a wider market and they can be used on a daily basis by anyone for example, pens and key holders and others. Consequently, they are very effective and beneficial to business enterprises. However, t
Introduction Gastronomy is widely used in food science because it involves the selection, preparation, serving, and enjoyment of good food. Gastronomy is therefore in essence the art and science associated with good eating (Pitte, 2002). Gastronomy has been widely used in the world to represent the perception that gastronomes are those highly dependent on classical and haute cuisine (Harrison, 1982). Other perceptions imply that gastronomy is associated with expensive and lavish meals that equally require expensive preparation and silverware. Fortunately, gastronomy has been developed by shunning this diversity (Davidson, 2002). In summary, gastronomy includes the understanding of agriculture, new and existent technology regarding food production, the impact of the food production on health, orientation to new and existent equipment regarding food production while promoting an understanding of food taste, savor and sensualizing the dining experience, regardless of the forum (Arnott, 1975). This study will however incorporate gastronomy as a basis for the development of bread pudding, buffalo chicken Wings, and Calcium Walnuts as constituents of a restaurant menu. Origin and History Bread pudding has a rich history. It initially originated as British cuisine but also has its origins in Puerto Rico, Argentina, and Mexico. It initially evolved as an invention of the use of stale bread. Across different cultures, cooks have been against the waste of stale bread hence the invention of many dishes primarily meant to be sweet and savory (Famularo, 2003). Today’s bread pudding is considered a deviation from its original humble form because it’s deemed luxurious and incorporates fresh gourmet bread and expensive ingredients which were absent in earlier versions of the meal. Saucing has also been proposed as an additional ingredient when it needs to be served sweet. As regards the history of buffalo chicken wings, it has never been agreed upon. However, there has been a common theory that buffalo chicken wings evolved from a restaurant in 1047 Main Street that’s located between North Street and Main Street in Buffalo New York, back in the 20 th century. The restaurant owner once had a son named Dominic who one day showed up at the restaurant with a demand for a fast and easy snack that he could take to his hungry friends. It was then that the restaurant owner developed the idea that chicken wings would be deep-fried and a toss into cayenne hot sauce would eventually improve its taste (Vanderstigchel, 2003). The origin of chicken wings, therefore, traces back to New York, USA. There was a distant time in the past when chicken wings were considered nothing more than leftovers which were to be used in soup making though currently buffalo chicken wings are highly regarded as fantastic appetizers in party fares and even in restaurants for commercial purposes. The expanded flavor of chicken wings as well as an improvement in the diversity of how it is prepared has improved its profile. Modern refrigeration methods have also greatly contributed to the development of chicken wings as a common appetizer
