Special needs offenders include prisoners with physical or mental challenges which are found guilty of criminal offenses. This category of incarcerated constitutes an integral population of the persons who require unique service delivery. In essence, social programs are important in ensuring that offenders with special requirements acquire positive values and practical skills (“Special Needs Offender Program,” n.d.). Most significantly, these individuals need focused attention as their situation can deteriorate if neglected in correctional facilities. This analysis evaluates the effectiveness of the Special Needs Offender Program (SNOP) in ensuring accurate behavioral recovery among patients with mental challenges. The program implements evidence-based practice (EBP) when interacting with sick persons facing psychological or terminal illnesses, physical difficulties, and chronic diseases. Essentially, SNOP has ensured consistency and reliability in behavioral change among offenders with special necessities facing psychological challenges. Social initiatives intended for goodwill among unprivileged society members must ascertain human dignity and social respect from peers at all levels of interaction. SNOP acknowledges the essence of special facilities among incarcerated individuals as critical to achieving correctional facilities’ objectives. For instance, the program guarantees basic needs as fundamental to mental growth among the special needs wrongdoers with psychological difficulties. As a result, the initiative ensures collaborative efforts from professionals with different academic experience. In this case, SNOP partners with certified medical practitioners to address specific needs among the wrongdoers with mental problems (“Special Needs Offender Program,” n.d.). The approach is critical in enhancing social objectives required for behavioral change among incarcerated persons. Most importantly, the initiative recognizes the essence of offenders’ special needs, such as optimal housing conditions, quality food, and decent clothing. SNOP has been tactical in promoting patriotic attributes among the lawbreakers imprisoned for varying crimes. Therefore, positive interaction with psychologically unhealthy patients with criminal records allows the administration in correctional facilities to achieve social goals of sharing information with health experts. Moreover, SNOP attends to individuals with special needs using social policies within correctional premises. In essence, the architecture used for guilty persons with mental needs is uniquely designed to integrate vital social and practical necessities. It is an element of diversity recognition in correctional facilities aimed to improve the conditions required for optimal positive change in behavior acceptable in public or social contexts. SNOP presents the guidelines and recommendations to policymakers determining imprisonment of sexual needs lawbreakers (“Special Needs Offender Program,” n.d.). Additionally, the program also includes individuals with a criminal record or history with the justice system. Such persons are prone to repeating crimes, hence, require
Introduction The modern Australian society is very demanding of people, the government, and businesses. The interdependence between taxation benefits offered through subsidies and the rate of interest, all have an effect on how the country is developing. International relations also play a role, as the products and services coming into Australia originate in other nations. Analysis The interdependent relationship between the government and businesses leads to changes in the economy and market. The taxation system results in economic stability which is largely linked to the governmental institutions, in connection with the society and public demands (Lloyd, 2001). On the residential level, income taxes are adjusted towards people’s economic status and contributions. In a business setting, functions of an organization involve intricate cooperation between the government, society, and the company, moving the economy in cities and pre-setting future governmental actions (Stegman, 2001). Many aspects depend on how the government allows businesses to function, and taxing a specific amount is a way to regulate the balance, as this point is not present in residential taxation. One of the key aspects of any business is to be able to interest the government, public, or society in the products or services that are being offered to people and organizations. In the case of international business, if it is seen as “required” by the government and society, then the tax would be lower to guarantee the return of businesses and partners (Kriesler, 1999). In the relation of the Australian government to the people, it must be noted that ethics and subsidies are on a high level. The government understands that time spent at home, reflects on the quality of work. It is much greater compared to other activities, so proper working conditions have become extremely important. There are several reasons that offer explanations to such a trend that relate to safety, health guarantees, and leave or pension support. People’s residences and working regulations are the moving force in any society. Previously, living conditions were on a much lower level, but people had no choice. Australia was one of England’s colonies, and it would seem that the same rules and laws would be in both countries, but this was not the case. Welfare at home and in the workplace is a concept that is rather recent (Sol, 2005). The global economic crisis has hit all countries, and those with a strong base had a better chance to get back into shape. It has sharply reduced the volume of production, which led to the breakdown of finances, caused widespread destruction and bankruptcy of residential, industrial, commercial, and financial firms, not to mention mass unemployment (Michelson, 2008). Something had to be done to increase the quality of living conditions, and a system of benefits in a form of subsidies was imp
Strengths and Weaknesses of Marks and Spencer (M&S) The first strength of M&S is that it has managed to place itself in a strategic position as far as competitiveness is concerned. It has achieved that through differentiation and positioning of its products, goods, services, and operations. The second strength is that it has penetrated several markets across the globe. In the United Kingdom, M&S has a total of 622 stores and 270 others in 34 countries. The organisation’s mission is “to make aspirational quality accessible to all” while its objective is to transform itself into a leading player in the retail industry ( M&S: the official board 2010). The third strength is that it sells goods and services of high quality at affordable prices. Over the last 12 months, M&S has taken measures aimed at boosting its position at the global level. At the local level, it has taken various measures aimed at boosting growth in the UK. It has also taken initiatives to strengthen its foundation and improve customer satisfaction. In addition, it has done serious campaigns to expand its international market. The organisation’s positioning initiatives are likely to remain the same over the next 12 months. The reason is that it aims at delivering quality and affordable products and services to all its customers over the next three years. The fourth strength is that many customers perceive M&S’s products as having ‘value for money’ ( About.com: top 5 reasons customers don’t buy from you 2015). The reason is that the products are not only of good quality, but they are also provided in different varieties. The fifth strength of M&S is that it has a powerful brand, which enables many customers to remain loyal to its products and services. The brand has remained popular for many years. In fact, some children have been born and grown up knowing that M&S is the only organisation which provides authentic products at affordable prices. However, the organisation has some weaknesses, which if properly addressed, can enhance its competitiveness in the retail industry. The first weakness is that it has not invested appropriately in differentiation and positioning. I would advise the organisation to invest more resources in differentiation and positioning so as to improve its future strategic position. Instead of differentiating a single product at a time, it should differentiate several products at the same time. Doing so would enable it to have a pool of loyal and dedicated customers for its goods and services. The second weakness is that it has a poor market entry strategy. The reason is that its current strategy for entering new markets focuses on opening new stores in different countries. Even though it is a good strategy, it has not helped the organisation a lot. The reason is that opening new stores is more expensive than working with agents. The organisation should, therefore, consider entering into a partnership with organisations which are not in the retail industry and start selling its products through those organisations. This strategy would enable the organisation to save the costs associated with setting up new stores in other countries. The third wea
Chronic hepatitis B is one of the common problems in Chicago, IL. The disease is a chronic infection that affects the liver. The condition leads to the scarring of the organ. It also leads to liver failure and liver cancer (Wu et al., 2014). The condition can lead to death if not treated early enough. According to Wu et al. (2014), the disease can easily be transmitted via body fluids. Such fluids include blood. Statistics show that many people in Chicago, including children and adults, are infected by the disease (Wu et al., 2014). The disease can spread through sex (Chon et al., 2012). It is associated with a number of symptoms. They include, among others, fatigue and poor appetite. Causes of the disease include prolonged use of some medicines, such as isoniazid. Drugs used after an organ transplant can also lead to this disease (Wu et al., 2014). People with a weak immune system, those living with HIV, and those on medication for cancer are at a high risk of contracting the disease. A section of people in Chicago is affected by HIV. As such, they are predisposed to chronic hepatitis B. The development of the illness is affected by the lifestyle adopted by people in the region. Cancer and liver problems are some of the common health problems associated with lifestyle. Hepatitis B and hepatitis E virus can cause the problem. Blood tests can be used to diagnose the disease (Chon et al., 2012). A liver biopsy can also be used to determine the extent of the problem. Medicines are used to treat the problem. However, according to CDC, the prevalence of the disease has dropped due to increased public awareness.
Introduction It is one of the new architectural symbols in Montreal that have gained a worldwide-prolonged applause. Major travel guides the likes of Lonely Planet, Ullysse and Hachette have chosen the building’s multicolored glass as well as the pink-lipstick forest as covers for their recent issues. Other tourism articles have recommended visiting the building for a personal experience of the major architectural wonders existing in the Montreal city. I can attest to the fact that the visit is actually worthwhile. The Palais des congres de Montreal is an exhibition centre holding exhibition each year 1 , situated in Quartier international de Montreal towards the Northern end of Old Montreal in the district of Ville-Marie in Montreal. It seems the building was named after its principle owner whose name is Palais de congres de Montreal 2 . It uses the design of the small number of stone buildings by using limestone that is laid in bands like them. The translucent glass allows the internal to absorb light inconspicuously. Its address is 159; rue Saint-Antoine Quest, 9 th floor, Montreal (Quebec), QC H2Z 1H2. Its neighboring buildings are the Place Jean-Paul Riopelle, Victoria square and Place de la Cite international buildings. The original work was done by a ‘neo-brutalist’ in the name of Victor Prus who built the Palais in 1980 3 and was inaugurated in May 1983 4 . It underwent an expansion between 1999 and 2002 through which its capacity in doubled to 93,000 square meters. The new architecture repaired the urban outlook to provide a ground level public for commercial purposes as well as a pedestrian and transportation link. However, the expansion used a similar design as its original 1980’s except that it has less concrete and more glasses. The new design, to a great extent, integrated well with its surroundings. From its current location, Montreal-Pierre Elliott Trudeau International airport is just 20 kilometers away. The building occupies an area of 200,000 square ft and it has 65 conference rooms as well as 18 loading docks, (fig. 1). The vertical panels are 1.5 meter by 3.6 meter. The expansion of the building was designed by a combination of architects i.e. Tetreault, Dubuc, Saiat and Hal Ingberg architects, whose design won the local design competition conducted for the same purpose. Hal Ingberg has earned himself an enviable reputation as among Canadian’s best architects for designing buildings. His unique knowledge on the potential abilities of glass to bring out unimaginable examination of space, the tinge brought

Introduction The paper is a critical examination of the concept of e-medicine and communication. With technological advancement changing rapidly, all facets of human life as well as most sectors of medical. With the notion that not adopting technology will leave organization at a disadvantage in this competitive world, health care sectors have adopted e-medicine. It is important for the relevant stakeholders to clearly know the mechanisms of the system and teaching others. As suggested by Hattersley & McJannet, 2004 information sharing between patients and physicians, doctors and other healthcare professional is significant. The speed, convenience as well as reliability of the same have been thought equality important, this being the catalyst to adoption of e-medicine. Presently, healthcare facilities and the human resource who work with patients have resorted to using electronic medical report rather than writing on hard paper as they share medical information with patients. This concept of using electronic medical reporting has been termed as electronic medicine. A typical example of e-medicine is where a physician who is separated by a long distance from a patient is capable of diagnosing him through video conferencing making it unnecessary for the professional or either the patient to travel the distance which could be costly and tiresome. Videoconferencing in medicine Videoconferencing has been variously defined but all definition seems to hold the same view; that of “interactive telecommunication technologies which allow two or more locations to interact via two-way video and audio transmissions simul
Introduction Nowadays, it is hard to imagine a country without laws. In today’s world, every nation has a system of laws in place, which govern the actions of individuals that live within its borders. Man-made laws have a long history, and they evolved alongside the development of societies. Some of the laws that were introduced in previous centuries have been abolished; new laws, however, are developed continuously to govern society effectively. Many argue that in the absence of laws, the civilization would return to its ancient form, where physical strength could grant power, and only the fittest individuals could survive. The present essay will seek to explore the concept of law in the United Kingdom, providing examples of various types of laws and explaining their impact on society. Based on that information, the paper will also attempt to evaluate the claim that the abolition of man-made law would have a profound effect on society, causing people to use violence to gain power. What Is Law? According to the Oxford Dictionary, the law is “The system of rules which a particular country or community recognizes as regulating the actions of its members and which it may enforce by the imposition of penalties” ( Law 2018, para. 1). Thus, there are several essential characteristics of the law. First of all, the law is systematic and comprehensive, and laws should not contradict one another. Secondly, the law provides means for corrective actions, such as fines, imprisonment, or even capital punishment. Lastly, the penalties established by the law must be effective in regulating the actions of the public, or at least its vast majority. Although this characteristic is not included in the def
For a long time, football has been used as a form of bringing people from different races together. World Cup particularly is used as a way of enhancing peace and harmony in the world. Supporters of different teams are encouraged to celebrate their victories without causing havoc. Therefore, tolerance is the most important virtue that every person in the football fraternity is supposed to exercise. World Cup was initiated to enhance peace and humanity among people from all over the world. Fair treatment of every human being should be the guiding force. It is expected, therefore, that football fans will treat each person without discrimination. However, since Qatar has won the bid to host the 2022 World Cup competition and started the preparation, reports of inhumane treatment of foreign workers emerged. It is excruciating to note that inhumane methods can be used in handling people who are working for an event that is supposed to enhance brotherhood among citizens of the world. It is important to note that Qatar has a very low population and the amount of work that is supposed to be completed before the tournament can be held is massive. Consequently, Qatar has imported a lot of people, most of them from Nepal and India, to assist with the work (Ramady, 2013). From their mother countries, people are enticed by the promise of good pay as well as the availability of the job. Notably, the immigrant workers come from poor countries where getting a job is almost impossible and this sounds like the only way out. As a result, they go extra miles to pay the agency fees to get their way to Qatar. Unfortunately, once they land in Qatar, they are met with a different scenario of the things offered previously. To begin with, the exit system in Qatar does not allow foreign employees to leave without permission from their employers. This exposes foreign employees to abuses by their employers, who know that they determine when their employees can leave. It should be noted that there have been complaining by various states regarding the way their people are treated in the Middle East. Consequently, workers at sites related to the 2022 World Cup are victims of forced labor (Montage, 2013). According to a report published by Amnesty International, World Cup workers are leaving in filthy conditions with up to 12 men sharing a room. On the same note, workers live in places with open sewage and very pathetic sanitary conditions. Naturally, people from the Middle East like regarding themselves as supreme and despise others, especially Non-Muslims. The way locals are treated is not the same as the treatment of foreigners (Huffington Post, 2014). Qatar has a rule that people should not work between 11:30 a.m. and 3 p.m. during summers because temperatures are very high (Pattisson, 20
