Introduction Turkey is located between Europe, Asia and it is in the north eastern end of the Mediterranean Sea. Its neighborhood includes Greece, Bulgaria, Russia, Romania, Syria and Iraq. The Turkish terrain is divided into two with one portion being in Europe and the other one in Asia. The central part of the country comprises of a treeless plateau rimmed by mountains. The country’s land comprises of 770, 761 square kilometers. This paper seeks to analyze the Turkish history. Turkish government The Turkish territory has been dominated by many empires since 1900 B.C. The Turkey in Asia which is also commonly known as the Anatolia was first occupied by the Indo-European Hittites, an empire which lasted until 1200B.C. The Persians later occupied the region in the 6 th B.C and the Roman Empire and the Byzantine Empire followed respectively (Lamartine, 1857, p. 213). It is believed that the Ottoman Turks emerged in the early 13 th Century and they gradually gained power over the area including the region earlier occupied by the Byzantium Empire. The Ottoman Empire is believed to be the most powerful empire to reign in the Turkish history as it dominated for over 600 years (Howard, 2001, p. 55). The empire is also said to have outpoured the Islamic art, literature and architecture in the region. The empire therefore firmly made the country is dominated by the Islamic faithful. It was not until the 18 th century that the Russian government intervened in order to rescue the Christians faithful who were greatly discriminated by the empire regime. Until 1909, the Turkey remained under the Russian protection, but during this period, the young Turks revolted against this reign and forced Sultan Abdul Hamid to grant a constitution to the government. There were continued wars between Italy and Turkey which took place between 1911 and 1912. The government also fought to gain the control of Balkans, this war also saw the Turkish government siding with the Germans during the First World War. It was after this international war that the country lost its control over the Balkans territory. The new republic The continued boarder dispute in the Turkish territory led to the re-drawing of the boundaries which was done in 1923 at the Lausanne conference. It was during the same period that Turkey became a republic headed by Kemal Ataturk as the first president. With the foundation of a new republic both Ottoman and caliphate emp
Introduction Literacy modernism was adopted in the early 20 th century when modernist writers adopted a new form of writing. Unlike in the traditional writings where writers could narrate their messages directly to the readers, modernists brought some sense of self-consciousness and imagery in their writings (Lewis The Cambridge 39). In the modernism literacy, readers are able to understand and involve their minds throughout the pieces of writing. Essentially, modernists worked from the perspective of earlier writers but they overturned the traditional modes of representing work into some new form of expression. This paper will give a stringent analysis of the works of three modernist writers, Yeats, Eliot, and Wolf. Essentially, the three writers expressed their form of writing by changing the philosophical, psychological, and social thoughts of the earlier writers. The Isle of Innisfree by William Butler Yeats The lake Isle of Innisfree is one of Yeats’ most famous poems that earned him a Nobel Prize. In the poem, Yeats describes a small island where one would find peace. The small island is located far away from the busy city where people struggle to earn their living. The narrator insists that he will arise and go, which is a clear indication that he is fed up with the daily stresses of life (Greenblatt 2391). Yeats applies a change in the philosophical approach to present his modernized poem. Essentially, reality has dawned to the narrator, and he intends to change his locality to an ideal place. From this point of view, Yeats takes the reader through a powerful imagination of a different kind of life that would prove to be more comfortable than the current lifestyle of the narrator. Yeats brings some self-conscious into the reader’s mind. The reader is conscious of the fact that whenever people live a life of agony, they tend to have some psychological torture, and thus they have the will to do anything to obtain a new lifestyle that would offer them some happiness. Yeats’ poem is a clear representation of a drastic change in the psychological, physiological, and social thought in presenting literacy work. While traditional writers would present their work flatly, Yeats achieved modernism by capturing the reader’s minds and taking it through all the proceedings. Sailing to Byzantium by William Butler Yeats Yeats poem, Sailing to Byzantium , depicts the manner in which time passes and the aged individuals are disregarded in the society. The narrator clearly describes how the young individuals are powerful whereas the old individuals have no place in the country. In his poem, Yates depicts that the world changes so rapidly, where, the thi
Introduction Laptops, palmtops, tablets and PDAs are computing devices that are being increasingly adopted for a variety of uses having an acute need of mobility while computing. These devices work with different hardware configurations than a conventional desktop computer and it is very important for any user of such devices to know about the technicals and working of the main hardware parts of these mobile computing devices in order to ensure uninterrupted and continuous usage. This paper focuses on the batteries, display and some power-saving CPU developments in the laptops of today. Laptop Batteries Batteries of the laptop are devices that enable a laptop to function without the main AC power supply. This working is supported for all laptop operations for anywhere between 1-4 hours depending upon the quality and the technology of the battery. A laptop like a desktop has CMOS & Clock Backup batteries which keeps u the date and the time when the laptop is turned off. This ensures that the restarted laptop carries on with the correct time and date. These are internal batteries of the laptop and these have another important function of saving the BIOS setup configuration, a program that is critically needed to reboot the system when restarted. Usually, the CMOS batteries are based on Lithium, Nickel Cadmium (NiCad) and alkaline technology and these are found fixed at one place on the motherboard. These batteries work with a current ranging between 3-7.2 volts. Regarding the main laptop batteries, Wikipedia (2007) states as follows, “Laptops usually run on a single main battery or from an external AC/DC adapter which can charge the battery while also supplying power to the computer itself. Many computers also have a 3volt cell to run the clock and other processes in the event of a power failure [which confirms above narration]”. These main batteries have undergone rapid technology change and revolution over the years. Earlier alkaline, Lithium and NiCad batteries. While the former two were not chargeable and had to be replaced by equivalent new batteries; NiCad batteries were chargeable. An improvement over NiCad batteries came in the form of NiMH batteries (which was based on evolved and refined technology).NiMH batteries gave outputs of higher energy densities in comparison to NiCad batteries. For the same battery weight, a NiMH supplied twice the amount of power of a NiCad. This means that a leaner laptop can work for more hours with NiMH. NiMH batteries also do not have memory capture which means that NiMH clearly recognizes a full charge from a partial charge, unlike NiCads which were unable to distinguish this. Thus NiMH is more reliable and maintenance-easy. The latest development in battery technol
Internships equip learners with adequate concepts to support their career objectives. I started my internship on January 10, 2018 at First Home Care. The facility is found in Portsmouth, Virginia. This journal gives a detailed reflection of my achievements and development of social work values. Personal Reflection My internship at First Home Care has widened my skills and knowledge in service delivery. The first training program after starting my placement focused on CPI Nonviolent Crisis Intervention. This program equipped me with satisfactory competencies for managing assaultive and disruptive behaviors. I understood how to improve the level of relationship between practitioners and their clients. Additionally, the training process focused on the CPI Crisis Development Model. The tool guides practitioners to implement desirable approaches for dealing with crises. From 15 th January, the team received CPR and First Aid training. Personally, I learned how to help individuals with stings, strains, cuts, burns, splinters, and abrasions. My team also learned how to give CPR on children, adults, and infants. On 19 th January, I started my training in a program known as Day Support Program for Autism. It mainly focused on autism in adults. I understood how to empower, teach, and guide adults with the condition to engage in various activities or aspects in their communities. I collaborated with a counselor who was in charge of three adults with autism. My experience with these three patients made it easier for me to understand the issues associated with autism. I am also expecting to acquire and use numerous theoretical models to support the needs of patients with diverse health and psychological needs. These tools and programs resonate with most of the values and concepts gained in class. For instance, the above ideas have empowered me to meet the changing needs of different patients, support their developmental goals, and offer exemplary services. Since patients usually require personalized services, I have understood how to offer the best support to them. Individuals in need of exemplary services should be empowered using the right techniques. This analysis indicates that my internship will eventually support my future clinical goals. I am yet to learn new techniques that can be embraced to support persons experiencing different challenges in life. This gap explains why the remaining days will be taken seriously in order to acquire adequate skills for empowering more people in need of exemplary social or health services. I will also engage in lifelong learning. This practice will equip me with new insights for efficient social and clinical care delivery. Saint Leo’s Core Value My int
Research Objective The research objective is to identify what issues the company needs to address to improve the quality of its service operations. An additional target is to identify effective methods for forecasting service demand for B2B and B2C segments and understand the differences between the two sectors. The second objective is subordinate to the first, as it may address one of the issues causing the service quality underperformance. Final Report Audience The final report’s audience will be the company’s management, which will receive suggestions regarding how service may be improved. They expect to see a detailed analysis of the situation that leads to logical conclusions on how the problem may be remedied. Additionally, they would like to see two forecasting models formulated, one for B2B service and another for B2C, with the differences explained. Main Research Questions There are five research questions, which are presented below:  1. Do the employees in the service department lack the skills they need to perform operations?  2. Does the service department have adequate workforce to satisfy service demand?  3. Are the demand forecasting models currently used for service accurate?  4. What are the determinants of service demand for businesses that work with Computer Inc.?  5. What are the determinants of service demand for Computer Inc.’s customers? Dependent and Independent Variables The dependent variable would be the proportion of service demand that is met. Meanwhile, the independent variables are the number of service sector employees and their competency levels. Causal Model and Regression Equation Service Department Performance = α + β1 (number of employees) * β2 (employee skill level) + β3 (forecasting effectiveness) + e Data Collection Methods Customers would be surveyed about their issues, and companies would be asked to provide data about issues with their devices. Employees would be interviewed in an open form with questions prepared in advance about their concerns. Sampling Frame The study’s research audience will be its customers, both individuals and businesses. Twenty companies will be contacted and asked about their service needs, and a market research firm will be hired to study the B2C market, as, for forecasting, it is necessary to encompass as many people as possible (Schindler, 2019). An additional audience will be Computer Inc. employees in the service department, all of whom will be included in the study provided they agree. Collected Data ANOVA Test The ANOVA test can be used for groupings of companies that work with Computers Inc. and expect it to provide service. They can be separated based on their industries, and the researchers will try to determine whether these differences inform variety in electronic device usage. Potential Areas of Error The first area of error can be sampling bias for partner companies, as it may not necessarily be representative of the whole. The second would be interview design, as it
Introduction Immigrants are always faced by state of fear and impermanence because the host country and it citizenry never want to accept them as their own. This paper analyses the work of two writers on the issue; Rites of Passage and Rights in Citizenship in Post Millennial Ireland , authored by Dianna Shandy, and Female Literature of Migration in Italy , which has been authored by Lidia Curti, which paint to us a picture of what it is like to be a refugee immigrant. The State of Not Belonging The two authors draw to us a very clear image of the plight of African immigrants to foreign countries. The immigrants are in a state of lost owing to the fact that they are unwelcome in their host countries while at the same time they cannot go back home owing to the conditions of life back from which they were running from. This leaves them foreigners in their host countries as well as in their home African countries. Shandy tells us of pregnant African women who run away from home to Ireland so that they can acquire rights and privileges of an Irish Citizen. The Irish Jus ….Policy which guaranteed citizenship to every individual born on Irish soil attracted many women to Ireland. They were seeking a sense of belonging to a country which will provide them with an improved condition of life both for themselves and for their babies. For them, the right to citizenship of the babies they were carrying to be acquired upon birth would see them acquire various rights too in the country as the mothers of those baby, something they were willing to risk for if only for a better future for themselves as well as for their children. Curti on the other hand presents to us a case of young African writers who are refugees in Italy. Their narrations tell us of how they got married to Italian men who became the fathers of their children but later abandoned them leaving them in a situation of loss and feelings of insecurity on their nationality. Their marriage and subsequent bearing of children with Italian men had made them acquire a sense of belonging, unknown to them it was short-lived and soon they would be haunted by an everyday question of ‘where is home for me?’ Others were born within Italian families by Italian citizens and that must have given them hope that they belong in their host country. But the only mistake was that they were born in black skins and still carried the ‘black blood’ in their veins. And as they grew up, they realize that they, just like all the others, are still foreigners. Benefits to be reaped In their new ‘home’, the immigrants will get everything that their original country could never have offered them. To start with, they are assured of a peaceful political stability as opposed to the scourge of war that persists in most African countries. They can there

Role of foreign Trade Commission (FTC) Foreign Trade Commission (FTC) is a US based agency that seeks to protect the consumer from being exploited in the market place either through prices or counterfeit products. Competition is one of the major factors inherent in any organization’s operating environment (FTC, 2011, p.1). FTC also seeks to promote fair competition in the market place. The role of FTC is to ensure effective law enforcement on consumer interests by provision and sharing of its expertise with the federal state, international agencies and the legislative body in the US (FTC, 2011, p. 1). It is also instrumental as a research tool through workshops and conferences which aid in creating pragmatic programs suitable for both consumers and businesses in the global marketplace. FTC Public Policy Considerations FTC has certain public policies that place it at a position of combating anti competitive behavior in the market place which is detrimental to the consumer. One of its public policies considerations is to eliminate the illegal anti-competitive conducts by organizations operating in the healthcare industry. For instance, AllCare and BVIPA (Boulder Valley Independent Practice Association) were involved in un-lawful fixation of prices (AOA, 2008, p. 1). Another consideration is that FTC seeks to control scrupulous mergers and acquisitions by rival companies which may have a negative impact on consumers in terms of accessibility and affordability of the organizations’ products. This has been portrayed in the cases of King Pharmaceuticals Inc and Alpharma Inc. The former wanted to acquire the latter but FTC intersected the move which would have increased the prices of the organization’s drugs especially the chronic ones which were on high demand. FTC argued that the move was against federal law and the acquisition was geared to reduce competition between King and Alpharma in their relevant markets (FR, 2009, p. 1). Other distinguished considerations have also been applied. For instance, the physician joint ventures and multi-provider networks which are deemed to be legal only if the integration seeks to produce significant results that are beneficial to consumers. Similarly, payment of performance among physician groups should constitute a form of financial risk sharing. Clinical integration should also be a contributing factor to improving research and services to the consumer. Hospital mergers should also comply with court’s ruling in terms of geographic markets. In case of mergers between non-profit and for-profit organizations, profit status should not be an impediment. Thus, merging organizations should not be conformed to monopsony and oligopolistic aims and at the same time, private parties should not engage in anticompetitive behavior (FTC, 2011, p. 1). FTC should always strive to address and resolve matters pertaining collective bargaining between organizations and preventing future anti-competitive conduct (C
Historical Background of Human Subject Protection The human-subject system of protection currently being used has undergone serious development in the last six decades. The rules followed today while conducting human research were developed as the Nuremberg code used in the trial of the Nazi war criminals (Resnik, 2018). The three basic constituents of the code were consent that was informed, favorable risk and risk analysis, and the right to pull out from the research. The principles became the foundation and cornerstone for the research regulations and ethical codes that followed the Nuremberg code (Malgieri & Niklas, 2020) After the Second World War, the world superpowers focused most of their attention on finding cures for some deadly diseases, and human subjects were needed for the success of the research. Between 1950 and 1973, countless research misconducts were reported in the United States, prompting congressional contemplation about human-subject research management. The National Research Act of the year 1974 was Congress’s first legislation move to safeguard the rights of those participating in their research (Artal & Rubenfeld, 2017). The legislation created a national commission that protected participants in Biomedical and behavioral research. The commission issued a report stating three fundamental principles in conducting human subject research. The three principles were respect for the persons participating in the human subject research, justice, and benefaction for those involved (Resnik, 2018). Historical Incident of Human Subject Abuse and Human Rights Violated The public health service, in collaboration with Tuskegee’s institute, began researching syphilis in 1932 in the hopes of justifying treatment
