Introduction The Middle East (ME) experienced drastic changes that would affect its further political, social, and economic development after WWII to a considerable degree, defining the development of the Israel-Palestine conflict (IPC). To analyze the situation, the recent publications addressing the history of the ME struggle and the current political situation were used. The paper describes Arab Socialism, then proceeds with the analysis of the IPC, and ends with discussing the role of the U.S. in the ME development. Since the ME is currently affected by several issues including economic and socio-cultural ones, the further choice of the IPC-related strategies will require the focus on the right of theme residents for self-determination because it is the driving force behind positive social, political, and economic changes. Arab Socialism In retrospect, the current situation regarding the confrontations between the ME and Israel, as well as the tensions in the ME’s political arena, can be seen as the inevitable side effects of the self-determination process. The latter has been taking place in the ME setting since the beginning of “Ba’th,” or the Arab social and political renaissance. 1 With the creation of the Arab Socialist Party in 1949, the focus on the national revival and the promotion of the Arab Unity has been consistent and unceasing. 2 The movement was initially spurred to encourage the process of detaching the ME from imperialists. Afterward, it grew into an all-embracive political force that would eventually introduce socioeconomic and financial opportunities for the representatives of the lower and middle class. 3 Therefore, Arab socialism can be seen as the movement that encouraged changes in the realm of the political, economic, and social life of the ME residents, yet its effects cannot be deemed as entirely positive. Particularly, the prolonged confrontation with Israel needs to be mentioned as one of the negative outcomes. Israel, the Middle East, and Palestine The IPC has been in existence since the late 1940s, yet very little progress has been made so far to prompt a compromise or a solution that could lead to the best possible outcomes. Since the part of the land that is currently under the control of Israel is also claimed by the Arab population, the issue remains highly problematic on several levels, including sociocultural and political ones. The situation is aggravated by the long history of hostility between Arab and Jewish people,
Owing to the classification of Pluto as one of the dwarf planets by IAU, the eight planet -solar system is categorized into two domains; Terrestrial and Jovian planets. These two domains are distinct in the uniqueness of their characteristic features. Terrestrial planets comprise of Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars, they are near the proximity of the Sun to their Jovian counterparts which include; Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. It is interesting to note that, though the Jovian planets are further away from the sun than the Terrestrial planets, the speed with which they spin on their own axis is relatively higher. Apart from the relative positions of the Jovian and Terrestrial planets from the sun, another striking difference between them is in their relative masses and sizes. Whereas the Jovian is gigantic and massive the terrestrial planets are relatively smaller in size and less massive. For instance, the Earth which is the largest of the terrestrial planets is one-tenth the size of the smallest Jovian planet, whose mass is fifteen times that of the earth. Surprisingly though is the ironic comparison of the relative densities of the Jovian and Terrestrial planets, with the densities of the Jovian planets being relatively lower than those of the terrestrial planets. The other front of distinct features evident in the Jovian and the Terrestrial planets is in their composition. Whereas the outer surface of terrestrial planets basically comprises solid rocks that of the Jovian planets are gaseous. In addition to this, although a greater percentage of the terrestrial planets’ atmosphere comprises nitrogen and carbon dioxide gases that of the Jovian planets constitute hydrogen and helium. The other notable distinctive feature between the Jovian and Terrestrial planets is the number of satellites, with Jovian planets having several or large numbers of satellites and the Terrestrial planets having few or none. Classification of Smaller Bodies in the Solar System Smaller bodies than the planets, but relatively larger than the satellites, in the solar system are broadly classified as either asteroids or comets. Asteroids are small and rocky non-atmospheric bodies that orbit the sun, many of them are gathered in the asteroid ring sandwiched between Mars and Jupiter. Comets are space snowballs of du
Introduction Branding is the process of creating a unique image of a product or service by cutting a name for it and in the process engraving it in consumers’ minds. A strong brand is a valuable asset to a company used for the purposes of retention of customers. This implies that entities should invest time and resources in research and define appropriate market strategies that work for their firms. Branding ensures that a persistent and unique identity of the business products is maintained through distinguishing brand concepts (Hisrich, 2000). Chain Branding Chain branding has a variety of benefits that entities achieve in terms of ensuring customer satisfaction and maintaining a competitive position within the markets of operation. There are several advantages that make chain branding a worthy investment. They include the following: Remembrance and memorability A good brand builds a desired reputation in the mind of a consumer. It ensures that goodwill is established. Goodwill is influenced by choice of brand made by the customer during selection. For this reason, it is important to appreciate that impacting the consumer positively will stimulate retention and remembrance (Gosche, 2009). Loyalty and advocacy Loyalty usually arises from the positive experience that customer has had with a brand. It emerges as a result of the fact that a positive emotional bond with the brand has been created. This enhances customer retention. Reduced marketing expenses Investing in a good brand will ensure that the company reduces on costs of marketing. This implies that the initial branding must be carefully crafted to eliminate any possibility of making mistakes in order to achieve desired targets. The company should simply ‘get it right’ the first time (Parsa & Kwansa, 2001). Increase in profit margins and growth Good branding leads to an increase in profits due to the fact that products are distinguished from competitor offerings. This arises from the benefits of having cut a niche for an entity in the market that does not match competitors. Good branding equally provides a platform for growth and may be a launch pad to expand. Reduced risk (on part of the customer) Taking the case of restaurants where health and sanitation are the key factors to success, customers would not want to experience ailments arising after a visit to a restaurant. In this case, the decision by a customer to go after a certain brand is based on decisions they have made on experience attained. This gives the customer the confidence to choose a brand as they base decisions on past experiences; in this case it refers to experiences when they were satisfied. Restaurant entities and brand definition The food industry is filled with competition arising from so many aspects. There is a need to establish a balance for a good brand and define efforts to ensure brand superiority in the market. Based on the literature, it is evident that finding the best approach to branding a restaurant while ensuring that other attributes are maintained, and not crippled, is vital for a restaurants’ success in marketing (Fullen,2005). The major brand attributes associated with restaurants include
Introduction This paper is divided into part one and two, and elaborates on an Ansari X Prize Cup-Gauchito Rocket Project. Part one will produce a duration estimation using Excel based on Work Breakdown Structure (WBS). Part two is precedence on the developed Gauchito rocket assembly project estimate whereby a network diagram is developed based on primary tasks and a Gantt (Bar) scheduled chart. The Ansari X Prize Cup-Gauchito Rocket project-schedule constitutes time-base as well as a sequential analysis of various activities involved in the project. It is ordinary for project-leaders to be confronted with time-element in a triple-constraint manner through schedules, scopes, as well as resources and budgets. Several techniques for the display of project-schedules as well as an analysis of project-schedules have been identified by Kelvin (2009). Based on stipulated objectives for the project as well as major-risks considered, various techniques could be adopted by a project-leader. Familiar display-techniques of schedules include Milestone-Chart, Task-List, Gantt-Chart, Network-Diagram, Two-Dimensional-Task-List and Calendar-View. The Gantt-Chart and the Network-Diagram which have been identified in the question may be explained as follow:   * Gantt-Chart (Bar Chart): this is known to nearly be the most frequently used format for project scheduling. It provides a fantastic format for arresting the progressiveness and task-activities in instances whereby such are scheduled. It has been noted that:     ‘In the Gantt chart, every task is represented by a bar of a time line chart’ (Ape, 2005).     The bar’s left-edge is positioned at the task-duration with respect to the start plan as well as the bar’s right-edge which is positioned about the planned-ending of tasks. With the unfolding of the project, the bars’ edges are over and over again up graded for the reflection of the task-start and task-end times. The formats generates tracking-progress focus due to the fact of it clarity for seeing the possibility of underway, completion, as well as hanging at articulately defined times. Thus, the usage of Gantt chart could be identified with daily or weekly project-progress tracking. The usage of the Gantt chart is facilitated by the ease to which it can be used or maintained. Studies have identified that the Gantt chart has assumed a high degree of acceptance in terms of scheduling projects based on the fact that it is simple and generates focused tracking of projects. In case task-estimates are comparatively determinable, the Gantt chart could by far by a choice format.   * Network Diagram: this is basically a project-task flowchart with a foundation-technique for used frequently in resolving analysis based techniques. It is noted that:     ‘The network is created by determining predecessor and successor relationships and connecting the tasks based upon those relationships’ (Huge, 2010).     Basically, the techniques would generate handoff-focuses. Regarding c
Stigmatization towards individuals with mental health disorder results in different kinds of exclusion and discrimination in the social spheres or the place of work. The following are some ways of eliminating such stigma. Seeking Treatment Though people with mental health disorder could be hesitant to disclose their requirement for treatment, they should not allow the fear of being stigmatized bar them from getting assistance (Kendra, Mohr, & Pollard, 2014). Treatment offers relief through recognizing what is wrong, in addition to decreasing symptoms that impede one’s tasks and private life. Enhancing Self-esteem Stigma does not come from other people only. Individuals with mental health disorder could wrongly believe that their condition is an indication of personal flaw or feel worthless. Getting psychological counseling and education regarding the disorder and connecting with others having similar conditions could assist in facilitating self-worth and overcoming negative self-judgment. Not Isolating Oneself Rather than sequestrating oneself, people with mental health disorders ought to reach out to individuals they could trust for support, compassionateness, and understanding as a means of overcoming stigma and other challenges (Kendra et al., 2014). Public Health Endeavors Focusing On Dementia Care The World Health Organization (WHO) is particularly calling on the international public health community to put efforts that focus on dementia care both internationally and nationally. National governments, public health personnel, and other stakeholders have developed different strategies aimed at enhancing early diagnosis and care, increasing public understanding while lessening stigma, and facilitating the quality of life for individuals suffering from dementia, in addition to their carers. Public health efforts differ considerably nation-to-nation since they shape the framework to satisfy their unique needs (DiLuca & Olesen, 2014). However, the dissimilar public health efforts align across governmental organizations, delineate treatment and care suggestions, and offer a means of reporting on advancement and hindrances. Public Health Initiatives Focusing On Neuromuscular Disorders In the enhancement of the care for neuromuscular disorders, WHO instigates different initiatives that engage governments, public health professionals, and other stakeholders (DiLuca & Olesen, 2014). For instance, WHO has initiated public health initiatives internationally, which encompass the Global Initiative on Neurology and Public Health, to enhance professional and public responsiveness of the incidence, asperity, costs associated with neurological disorders, and highlight the necessity to offer neurological care at every stage of public health. Risk Factors Suicidal risk factors in mental health disorders differ by gender, age, or ethnicity and normally happen in combinations. One
What is the relationship between ethics and values? Provide three examples. Values are the aspects of life that are the most important for a certain individual. Ethics are the individual’s ideas of the proper and most acceptable behavior. Values and morals are very individual and differ from person to person. One’s life choices depend directly on their values and ethics. The choice of a profession depends a lot on the person’s values and ethics. For example, when a person values good income, they would take a job connected with risks that are paid very well. When a person values career development or their ethics do not allow them to go after money only, they would agree to start at the very bottom of a career ladder and have a perspective of growth and learning. If a person values safety the most, they would never agree to a career related to risks for health or life. Ethically, not all jobs are acceptable to everyone. Someone may disagree with waitressing or with working as a janitor because these professions are less prestigious, and some people would never work in sales because of the huge responsibility. Are they the same? How do we learn these or develop them and incorporate them into our daily personal and professional life? Ethics and values are related, but they are not the same. We learn our ethics and values during the course of life by means of going through various experiences. For example, two people can be cheated on at some point in their lives. One of them, after comprehending the consequences of this exp
The study of risks associated with corporate security is an integral procedure for planning the future activities of the enterprise. According to the peculiarities of the bank’s work, it is essential to admit that a large and multifunctional building should be reliably protected from any threats both from the outside and inside. Any potential dangers to data stored in the building, as well as to the bank’s employees, should be discussed at the initial stage. In the future, it will be necessary to work on the introduction of appropriate security technologies rather than testing them. Therefore, possible risks are a topic that deserves discussion and should be considered one of the first. Too Much Space The security threat of the enterprise under analysis can be caused by the fact that the construction itself is quite massive. One of the potentially dangerous areas of this 13-floor building is the first floor with a multitude of entrance doors. In order to fully control the situation and monitor all visitors to the bank, it is essential to equip each entrance door with a separate video surveillance device. Moreover, the first floor has quite a few departments, and daily, large amounts of money are collected in each of them. In order to prevent a possible theft or criminal attack, it is required to equip each of the departments on the first and, if necessary, other floors with an appropriate alarm system, through which it will be possible to urgently call the police. The order of location of all the necessary video surveillance devices and alarms should be thought through at the preparation stage. According to Broder and Tucker (2012), the ways to identify risks can be different. It can be a survey among employees, reports by inspection boards, etc. The central aim is to achieve as much safety as possible and not to allow any dangerous situations happen. The authors also remark that such security systems will help to not only protect the bank from robbers but also will be beneficial in case of fires (Broder & Tucker, 2012). Therefore, a timely implementation of security devices is a rather necessary measure. Surrounding Area Another risk that the work of bank employees can involve is the danger of transport that moves through the adjoining territory. Due to the fact that the area is large enough, quite a lot of cars regularly move around the yard, which can cause a traffic congestion problem and at the same time carry a threat to pedestrians who can overlook this or that a vehicle. In this regard, there is a need to install special barriers that can regulate the flow of transport, as well as t
Introduction In the past decades, our society has undergone many transformations that have changed our lives in many ways. Such a direction of civilization and modernization has resulted in a complex law system that has been designed to protect our rights, and bring a sense of order in our daily activities. As a result, our system of law has evolved into such a complexity that it has become impossible for anyone to ingrain its details. Many people are now appreciating the fact that our law system has evolved into such a complexity that it is deviating from its core purpose. Philip Howard has presented some ideas on how our law system can be improved so to catalyze and enhance America’s competitiveness with the rest of the world. Main Body First, it is important for our society to judge our law system from a point view that evaluates the cumulative effect of our laws on the whole society instead of just focusing on individuals (Howard, 2011). With such a perspective, we can then determine whether our current system is working for the good of our education system, health system, and government system among other areas (Howard, 2011). Currently, available data is indicating a continual erosion of the areas that I have mentioned above (Health, Education, and Government). For example, with a fear of drowning in lawsuits, many teachers have been unable to effectively control their classes (as a result of increasing indiscipline among students) (Ryan, 2010). With a significant amount of their time spent on trying to control their classes instead of teaching, our education standards have continued to deteriorate (Howard, 2011). Secondly, we need to introduce the important element of trust in our legal system (Howard, 2011). Currently, many health professionals have been paralyzed by the fear of making mistakes while doing their work; hence preventing them from helping their patients in a better way. The same can be said about teachers, other professionals and any other individual that is haunted by the silent voice of our law system (in form of lawsuits) in everything he/she does. It would be appropriate to precisely design our law system so that it can provide a relative amount of freedom to professionals such as doctors with a focus on their intent and not just on the result of their actions (Ryan, 2010). Besides, it would be fruitful to restructure our system of law so that people are well aware of the legal boundaries that they can operate in their normal lives (Howard, 2011). Such legal boundaries will need to create a framework of freedom for people to operate in (Howard, 2011). Currently, our legal boundaries and our freedoms are not apparent. To implement such a task, our laws need to be practical to unique circumstances and situations that are faced by people in their d
Science study allows humans to learn in detail about the surrounding world, which is necessary for every person living in society. However, people are different, and not everyone desires to learn something new or direct attention to a precise area. The teacher’s task is to ascertain an approach suitable for a particular student or group and inspire further advancement. Numerous means can persuade students to study science, such as generating curiosity, devising connections, and comparing with other learners. Curiosity is present in every person, but it can be directed towards unconventional shapes. A student’s inquisitiveness about science can be aroused by tracing parallels between scientific and practical relevance. For example, a teacher instructs brand-new information that is already somehow connected with the base in the student’s head and immediately designates this element’s value in the whole paradigm. Thus, the student creates logical connections and a desire to supplement them with unknown elements. Connections play an essential role in motivating people to learn, and in order to create them, the teacher needs to find the appropriate representation. Throughout life, characters create bonds according to disparate beliefs, and the student can be motivated for this reason. For example, according to an area of curiosity, the pedagogue creates small groups in the classroom to explore a specific area in more extra detail. Building connections, even small ones, will help students find like-minded people and keep them motivated to learn. Sciences involve studying other types of living beings, and man is inclined to compare themselves with other creatures. The instructor needs to show the similarities and differences between other cultures or creatures, generating further research interest. For example, the teacher talks about other cultural backgrounds and arranges group interactions to provide students with a more comprehensive view. Being directly involved in the game and reflecting on others’ cultures assists in generating benefits playfully. A student’s success strongly depends on the teaching methodology since identical information can be presented in various schemes. Curiosity is inherent in every person; it only needs to be directed in the right way. Creating group connections and enjoying like-minded people will make the learning process more pleasant. Comparison with other cultures is attractive because each person needs to determine a place in life and understand how it happens with others.
