The success of human-computer interaction depends on the degree of the technical functionality of interface design whose main purpose is to facilitate this interaction. While analyzing the web design, the focus should be made on the features promoting interaction, analysis of potential uses applying to the web interface, as well as main elements of writing and presentation in IT with regard to the established formats and standards. Lowes.com and homdepot.com are websites that have been chosen for the analysis with regard to the above-presented parameters. Both sides demonstrate household articles and other appliances that can add up to the comfortableness of the house. The main idea of both sites is to develop an application that would demonstrate the benefits of buying different household articles. In this respect, lowe.com represents a list of products and outlines advantageous terms for buying these products (Lowe’s, 2012). The site demonstrates various product prices for a user to contrast and compare, as well as find additional services to benefit from. For instance, potential users are able to compare prices and look at the tutorials of making up specific articles for improving the comfortableness of their houses. In contrast, homedepot.com applies to a narrow-focused approach and provides only the products for sale. Despite the presence of the basic elements and purpose of the online application, the websites fail to meet the users’ needs in terms of presenting a variety of products of sale, which does not relate to specific conception and, therefore, the site can be less attractive for the users (App Design Strategies, 2012). Similar concerns are applicable to the second site because some of the purposes presented on the website page are not congruent with each other. Specifically, there is no connection between ‘green’ policies and selling building materials made of artificial substances contaminating the environment. While evaluating the web interface designs from the viewpoint of human-computer interaction, specific attention should be made to the analysis of potential users visiting this site, as well as how it correlates with the actual purposes of interface design (Hoekman, 2008). At this point, lowes.com fails to introduce a list of elements that would allow users to navigate the application and provide the optimal functionality of the software (Lowe’s, 2012). Specifically, the interface does not have channels of interaction because it does not provide a full range of capabilities in terms of exploring the site. The user visiting this site will have difficulties in identifying the actual purpose of the web design because no information is provided. In contrast, h
Economics is a social science that focuses on relationships between individuals, businesses, countries, and continents in terms of how the resources are being used in order to meet the wants of humans. This subject can be divided into two major categories, in particular, macroeconomics and microeconomics. The first one is a study of the aggregate nature of the economy and can be related to the factors that affect the economy as a whole. Microeconomics is a study covering the economic factors that influence people and nations on a more individual level. This paper will focus on the macro part of the field, and make use of the Keynesian theory models. The Keynesian theory places a lot of emphasis on the forthcoming of total spending into the economy and its repercussion on the output, whether negative or positive. Its major dogmas stipulate that the private and public sectors make the economy change in the aggregate demand which will have either an anticipated or unanticipated effect on the real output and employment. The theory models also show that nominal amounts like wages, respond slowly to change in demand and supply, leading to periodical shortages and surpluses. There is no certain ideology behind unemployment, as it is subject to both aggregate demand and price fluctuation. The theories advocate for stabilization policy to control business cycles. Nevertheless, some of the Keynesians believe in combating unemployment rather than fluctuation in the contemporary economy. Regularly, the higher the cost, the higher the prices, and in case it costs more to manufacture a product than sell it, then there is not enough output for the employer to hold an organization and pay salary to the workers. It is possible to decrease the price which will lead to more spending and the total number of goods sold will be much higher. Steve Fazzari advises to take a close look at the problem and establish all the details. Even the facts and forecasts that were provided by the Obama administration were greatly underestimating the unemployment rate, as it was higher than 10%. Bush administration decided that it would be rather giving checks than cut the rates. The financial outcomes were seen later with a lasting negative effect. Increase in the disposable income of citizens improves their bargaining power that will, in turn, raise the demand of the commodities via the limited supply. It is also a problem of the inability to look deeper into the situation and predict or prevent. Instead, the economy can be judged only by the final result and only then, something can be adjusted. Fazzari calls economists “historians” or researches, as the only way to construct the future economy is by analyzing previous mistakes and possibilities. Steve also clarifies that it would be better to rely on the governmental allocation of resources and economy support because if people are given more money and opportunities, they will not b
Introduction Crucial historical transformations such as the back-rolling of capitalist west welfare states, decline or crucial metamorphosis of party states which were bureaucratic in the communist East, and weakening of the economic sovereignty of nation-states have demonstrated the significance of understanding abstract dynamics of capitalism. This has caused an apparent and victorious occurrence of a new global capitalist and neo-liberal society and the emergence of competition among capitalist states with competing objectives. In this paper, I explore the importance of understanding the abstract dynamics of capitalism as an explanation of daily experiences in business and society. I explore the topic by analyzing the key concept (examples), how is it effective (personal view), time crisis, free and non-free labor, imperialism, international revolution (uneven development), the international division of labor, and the oil economy (china). Abstract dynamics of capitalism and daily experiences of business and society According to the Marxist approach to capitalism, the historical dynamic of capitalism is based on the double-edged character of the commodity or product and ultimately that of capital. This is underpinned in the value of a product where Marx explored the temporal determination of value’s magnitude under aspects of socially-necessary labor time (Masuda 2009). According to Marx, value is peculiar as a social form and temporal measure of wealth and thus increased productivity increases the magnitude of use-values which are produced per unit time (in the short term) (Gamble 2009; Masuda 2009). This dynamic does not only depict abstract temporality as productivity shifts can change the determination of what counts as a given unit of time (Edkins & Zehfuss 2009). However, sometimes this is not the case as productivity changes in the use-value aspect do not alter the determination of what counts as a given time unit (Coe et al. 2007). Thus the use-value and the dialectic of value have depicted historical significance, especially with the emergence of a surplus-value that is relative, and these results in a complex non-linear historical dynamic that depicts modern society and underpins the global economy (Masuda 2009). The Marxist approach to dynamics in capitalism depicts ongoing transformations of production- social- life and ongoing reconstitution of its core condition as the ever-present feature of social life i.e. labor ultimately affects social mediation, and therefore living labor is an integral part of production processes (in terms of society, this is considered as a whole) and this occurs in total disregard of productivity levels (Masuda 2009). The dynamics of capitalism enable us to understand labor as a mediator of humans and nature, and an objective transformer of ma
Introduction The Bible is an indivisible entity, a document of spiritual and historical relevance. Depending upon interpretation and usage, it has been and can be an indispensable tool of liberation or a weapon of mass destruction and oppression. Main body It is the infallible word of God as depicted by His inspired prophets and the story of a people. Divided into two sections – The Old Testament and The New Testament – the fundamental theme of the Bible is an expose on God’s nature and the nature of the human family via key biblical figures and their relationship to Him and with each other. Written and inspired by Moses, the Old Testament is comprised of 39 books. It conveys the Law and the Prophecies. The relationship between brothers and its negative as well as positive impact is one of the many motifs explored in the Old Testament. Most importantly, thru these relationships we witness God’s love and mercy but His wrath and condemnation as well. Intense love/respect to abhorrent sibling rivalry epitomizes the relationship between key biblical figures who happen to be brothers. Fratricide, the killing of one’s own kin, is first introduced in the Bible via the relationship/story of Cain and Abel (Genesis 4:1-16) – the off springs of Adam and Eve. Through them is our first glimpse into the struggle between the carnal and the spiritual. A mere man of the earth, Cain embodied self-will/interest/hatred and materialism. His bloody sin offering reveals his unflinching noncompliance and disrespect to God. His action is considered the precursor to false religion for he sought to worship God in the manner in which he choose as opposed to how God’s desire. Revered as the first Biblical martyr, Abel was spiritual man as evidenced by his offering. His faith was unbound and pure. Cain’s murdered of Abel catapulted the human family into blood shed and perpetual violence as well eternally cursed the earth. Like Cain and Abel, the parable Esau and Jacob (Genesis 25:24 – 33:20) symbolize how children despite similar parentage can be of diverse seed. The disparity between the carnal (Esau) and the spiritual (Jacob) is further explored. Paramount and inherent in their story is prophetic destiny. The essence of their character and destiny is solidified from conception. Most importantly, the impetus for their sibling rivalry is compounded by parental favoritism. The difference is that their personal flaws contribute to the strife in their relationship in contrast to Cain and Abel, in which Cain was the primary antagonist. Jacob’s idiosyncrasies lay the foundation for the dissension he would encounter in his family (Genesis 29-48). The sons he fathered with Rachel and Leah would pred
Wealth is essential in the material existence of human beings. It is accumulated through various means and also comes in various forms. One dominant form of wealth is finance. Financial wealth is essential for the present life and also for the future life. To achieve a good base in building financial wealth, several aspects including financial planning must be involved. A personal account of building financial wealth is shown below. Personal financial planning Financial planning for personal gain has considered several principles. They include the time value of money, effects of taxes on financial decisions, planning principles, and knowledge. Time value of money Wealth creation starts with the knowledge of the time value of money. Money has a time value attached to it. The money someone earns today has a higher value than a similar amount in a year’s time. When money earned today is invested, it will continue to earn profits for a certain period designated. Therefore, to focus on wealth creation and preservation, I have resolved to invest the savings made and allow them to grow. Investments could be through a mortgage, which allows me to buy a house today and pay for it in the future. The aspect of the time value of money has been realized after resolving to save $33 per month. The $33 monthly savings that earn 12% interest when compounded annually will produce $1 million when I will be at the age of 67 years since I am 20 now. Financial Terminology Financial planning involves two main financial terminologies that will guide this plan. They include credit and debit. The term ‘debit’ the used in the accounting sense to mean an increase to an asset account. On the other hand, the term credit is used to indicate an increase in the liability account. The two terms are opposite to each other and they occur at once. They are essential in a wealth creation plan because the process involves expenditure (liability) and income (assets) (Dempsey, 2009). Other terminologies used in financial planning include liquidity, which is the ability to recover the money when needed. There are also financial ratios such as liquidity and debt ratios that are vital for the determination of health of a business financially. Financial Planning Financial planning is dynamic and may be adjusted from time to time. In my plan, several processes have been considered. The first one is an evaluation of my financial health status. This involves analyzing a record of the amount earned, spend and, what to spend on. It further involves proper records including a personal balance sheet and budget. I also analyzed the source and entry of my money. The next planning process was a definition of the financial goals. During this process, I ascertained my purpose for s
Best Dressed Homes Ltd. is an expanding and successful interior design company with directors David, Richard and Belinda. A friend of David, Rodney, invested in the company and was appointed as a non-executive director. Rodney insisted that he wants to be treated as a silent partner in the company. As Best Dressed Homes Ltd. continues to grow, partly because of the cash injected by Rodney in the company, David, Richard and Belinda did not declare their dividend for the present year instead they gave themselves salary increases and arranged to lease three new Mercedes-Benz cars for their personal uses under the company. When Rodney decided to actively participated in the company he found out and questioned David, Richard and Belinda about the pay increases and Mercedes-Benz cars they have rewarded themselves. The three directors in question hated being interrogated thus they concluded to actions that would eventually result to the removal of Rodney as director of the Best Dressed Homes Ltd. These actions include:  1. The changing of office locks so that Rodney can no longer enter the premises or attend meetings.  2. They called a shareholders’ meeting that agreed to remove Rodney as director of the company.  3. During the shareholders’ meeting it was resolved that Rodney’s shares will be acquired by David, Richard and Belinda for a total of $500,000 which is half of what Rodney paid six months ago. Issue Rodney, as one of the directors and shareholders of the firm, Best Dressed Homes Ltd., can sue David, Richard and Belinda for initiating his removal from the firm and acquiring his shares at half of what he had paid six months ago given that the company grew with the help of Rodney’s money invested on it. In this case, the issues are whether Rodney’s removal from the company as director and stockholder valid or invalid and whether the actions of David, Richard and Belinda in acquiring a pay raise and having the company rent Mercedes-Benz cars for their personal usages present a breach of their fiduciary duties as directors of Best Dressed Homes Ltd. according to the Corporations Act 2001 – Sections 180, 181 and 182. Rules Section 9 of the Corporations Act 2001 defines a director of a company or other body as someone appointed to the position of a director or appointed to the position of an alternate director and is acting in such capacity regardless of the position name given to that person though a person who is not validly appointed as a director (de facto director) can be considered as one as long as they act in the position of a director or the executive directors of the company or body are accustomed to act in accordance with the said person’s (shadow director) instructions or wishes. A director is someone whose decisions affect the business and financial position of the said company. The execution of decisions and actions by directors are discussed in sections 180 in relation to care and diligence, 181 with regards to the execution of duties in good faith and 182 the use of positions by directors. According to the Corporations Act 2001 – Section 180 care and diligence, directors must exercise their
Introduction An explicit review of this analytical paper resonates within an unlimited time frame. Reflectively, the review will authenticate the relevance of the research article which comprehensively captures conceptualization ideas discussed within its periphery of ideal and actualization. Besides, the review paper reflects on the methodology strategy and adopted methods that appear to have employed qualitative and quantitative analysis. In addition, the review investigates research designs and conceptualized results that are quantifiable and assess the same on oropharyngeal cancer. The scope in this scenario is to capture the existing association between oropharyngeal cancers and HPV. In the conclusive segment, evaluation of originality and conceptualization are placed in order to ensure relevance in the review of prospect schema. Methodology Analysis and Discussion The article captured data on 130 patients freshly diagnosed with oropharyngeal cancer to collect oral-mucosal specimens for HPV detection. As observed in the research methodology, the author employed the use of quantitative research methodology which measures assumptions given and reflectively develops quantifiable results that were obtained via interviews on medical history, hygiene, among other relevant variables. In order to obtain actual and study physical reactions for different specimens, the researchers adopted a nonbiased tool for obtaining data. Therefore, the research article is very specific on both qualitative and quantitative data collection and analysis approaches that were simultaneously employed in the research. Through examination of the HPV-16 in the sample specimens, the researchers were in a position to further carry out DNA analysis for 37 HPV types. In order to stay within the scope of the research, viral load reporting was necessary for positive samples with adjustments made where necessary. Subject Results The author employs simple correlation analysis involving the measurement of dependent and independent variables. The simultaneous application and measurement of independent and dependent variables are great and capture the true value representation of the target population. Through use intrusive regression analysis that quantifies the relationship between the two variables (positive and negative results). The article was in a position to explain the relationship between the two variables that can be expanded to more variables grouped in pairs. Reflectively, the authors found out that when an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) of virus resembling particles were used, antibodies of Serum nature were detected for HPV-16 L1. On the other hand, the use of ELISA and bacteria-like particles indicated detection of antibodies parallel to HPV-16 E6 and HPV-16 E7 oncoproteins and the
Duration of Copyright Issues Section 12 to 15 of the CDPA 1988 provides the duration of copyright pertaining to different works. Section 12 provides copyright duration for dramatic, literary and artistic works; the copyright for dramatic, fictional, and musical works expires seventy years after the death of the author who created these works. Where the author of these works is unknown, the copyright expires seventy years from the date these works were published or created. Section 13A of the CDPA Act provides the copyright duration for sound recordings; copyright for such recordings expires fifty years after the recording was created. If the recording is published within the same period, the copyrights will expire fifty years from the date the recording was published. If the recording is not published within the period but released to the public, the copyrights will expire fifty years from the time they were released to the audience (Wing 2011). Section 13B of the UK copyright act provides copyright duration for films; the copyright for films expires seventy years after the last of the following persons die: the director of the film, the author of the script, the author of the dialogue, or the creator of the music used in the movie. Section 14 gives copyright duration for broadcasts; this section states that the copyright for a broadcast expires fifty years after a program is broadcasted for the first time. In a situation whereby, the creator of the broadcast is not a citizen within the European Economic Area, the copyright duration will be determined by the laws in the country of origin of the author. Section 15A of the CDPA gives a precise definition of the meaning of the country of origin with regard to copyright laws. If artistic works are first published in a country that is a signatory to the Bern Convention, and the works are not published anywhere else at the same time, then the first country that published the works becomes the country of origin (Wing 2011). Section 154 of the UK copyright laws provides the qualifications for copyright protection by referring to the author. Works qualify for protection if, at the time they were being created, the authors were British citizens, British nationals overseas, citizens from territories dependent on Britain, British subjects or people protected by Britain under the Nationality Act. A body established under British law also qualifies for copyright protection under this act (Wing 2011). Both Media Limited and DBC television are corporate bodies established under the UK laws; therefore, under section 154c their works qualify for copyright protection. Section 155 of the copyright act gives the qualification for copyright prote
