I propose that Humber College implement a ban on all single-use plastic products, such as Styrofoam, straws, bottles, and bags. Background Analysts reported that plastic production increases every 20 years by two times, and by 2050, the oceans could contain more artificial material than fish (Atwood & Sandborn, 2018). The situation with plastic management presents a challenging issue for authorities and non-governmental organizations. While moving towards a better tomorrow, Humber College maintains plans to enhance plastics and other substances’ sustainable usage. Problem Most people at Humber College regularly use plastics. Students are served meals in plastic containers in most of the eateries within the campus. These plastics are for one-time use, after which they are disposed, leading to increased plastic waste within the organization’s area. Causes Most campus students buy and utilize single-use plastic products and then discard them into the garbage bins. These products include straws, water bottles, and packaging bags. Further, many of these disposed substances break down into micro-plastics. Then, these small parts are additionally exported from the contaminated sites to other areas of the college, leading to increased plastic waste within the institution (“Moving Canada toward zero plastic waste: Closed consultation,” 2019). Moreover, there is limited or no access to environmentally sound and affordable products instead of plastic materials. Best Practices According to Atwood & Sandborn (2018), the ban on single-use plastic products can play a critical role in sustainable waste management. Besides, increased waste diversion from 42% to 70% will enable a reduction in overall plastic waste generated (Humber College, n.d.). The college administration should also increase access to affordable non-plastic products and reduce the usage of plastic-packed goods within the educational organization. Options for reusable or biodegradable packaging and awareness of plastic waste solutions management among students should be spread through educational campaigns. Evaluation and Rationale I propose that the college enact regulations that will eliminate single-use plastic items within the school, such as imposing a ban. The college should provide only tap water instead of bottled one for on-campus events (“Moving Canada toward zero plastic waste: Closed consultation,” 2019). The authorities of the educational organization should ensure the following:   * Conduct a plastic waste audit.   * Develop a plastic management plan.   * Develop a tracking program for plastic yard waste.   * Develop plastics reuse.   * Incentivize technologies, such as plastic-eating enzymes.   * Make producers pay for the safe disposal of their products (“Moving Canada toward zero plastic waste: Closed consultation,” 2019).   * Improve the collection and management of plastics to avoid exportation. Conclusion There is no ultimate practice to avoid plastic wastes. The college management should reduce access to plastic-packed products and instead increase the supply of environmentally-sound alternatives, such as
Introduction: Background information From the information received from Stefano on 20 th December 2017, I understated that:   * Victoria Timotei was found shot dead on the 14 th February 2016 at approximately 11 am in the road leading up from Deighton train station.   * As has been caught on the CCTV, a suspect is male.   * With no eyewitnesses.   * It emerged that she was at a restaurant with her work colleague, Suserio Pectrova, at the same night of her death.   * Suserio Pectrova stated that he was on a date with her in Leeds and they were on good terms, but she left at 10pm.   * By viewing the CCTV and the statement of the staff at the Leeds restaurant, it could be seen that Mr Pectrova and Ms Victoria Timotei were having an argument after Mr Pectrova had proposed to Ms Victoria Timotei, but she had rejected it.   * Ms Victoria Timotei’s colleagues said that Mr Pectrova was stalking Ms Victoria Timotei.   * Mr. Pectrova denied murdering Ms. Victoria, and he stated that they were in a sexual relationship.   * No ring was found in Ms. Victoria’s possession. From the additional information received from Esta on 11 th January 2018, I understand that:   * Mr Pectrova said that the last time he had sexual relation with Ms Victoria could have been a week before she was dead. Author’s examination, interpretation, and conclusion are based on the information received Purpose I have requested to review certain forensic evidence, that has been examined by other assistants, and to evaluate the potential for further testing in relation to addressing the following issues:  1. Does Mr Pectrova have Ms Timotei’s blood on his clothing?  2. Is there Mr Pectrova’s DNA under her fingernails?  3. Is Mr Pectrova’s semen present on her intimate swabs (in order to determine whether they had a sexual relationship)?  4. Are there any firearm discharge residues on Mr Pectrova’s clothing and hand swabs? I have been provided with the FSS examination notes/statements from a number of experts and items as listed in the appendix to this statement.

Abstract From the onset of this study, the importance of understanding the needs of Chinese travelers as a subsection of the global demand for tourists is highlighted because of their rising influence in the tourism and travel sector. The goal of this investigation is to understand the impact that Chinese cuisines would have on the tourism industry by investigating their impact on people’s traveling behaviors and decisions. Three main research objectives guide this study and they are centered on investigating the impact of the authenticity of Chinese cuisines on travel behavior, assessing the role of a restaurant’s physical environment in enriching one’s travel experience, and understanding the impact that cuisines have on customer loyalty standards. Drawing from evidence gathered from 50 Chinese travelers, this study affirms that food authenticity, the design of restaurants’ physical space, and customer loyalty standards share a positive relationship with people’s travel behaviors. This finding means that Chinese cuisines have a significant impact on the tourism industry based on their influence on the behaviors of travelers. Therefore, recommendations are made to pay attention to Chinese cuisines as an important attraction for travelers. Introduction Background of Study Food has always been an overlooked aspect of tourism product development despite its importance in enriching people’s travel experiences. However, recently, observers have started to appreciate it for the critical role it plays in foster
The film The Silence of the Lambs was produced in 1991. It is an American thriller and psychological movie directed by Jonathan Demme. It is based on the book The Silence of the Lambs by Thomas Harris. The main character is Hannibal Lecter, a psychopathic serial killer. The others are Clarice Starling and Buffalo Bill, an FBI agent. In this paper, the author will provide a psychological profile of Hannibal Lecter. To this end, the author will present a diagnosis of this social killer and provide justifications for their findings. Finally, the writer will present a theory explaining the cause of the problem and recommend a possible treatment for the same. A Diagnosis for the Identified Disorder In the movie The Silence of the Lambs, Hannibal Lecter portrays several traits and behavioral patterns that show he is suffering from a psychological condition. An in-depth analysis of his behavior indicates that he has an Antisocial Personality Disorder. The condition is a mental problem characterized by a ‘defined disregard’ for what is regarded as right or wrong (Thomas & Pope, 2012). In addition, the patient fails to respect the rights and feelings of others. Nolen-Hoeksema (2011) notes that people suffering from the disorder manipulate, provoke, and treat others with callous indifference. In addition, they show no remorse or guilt for their actions. The diagnosis for the Antisocial Personality Disorder portrayed by Hannibal is based on an analysis of the personal and medical history of the character. It is also anchored on a psychological evaluation of thoughts, relationships, family history, and feelings. In addition, the diagnosis entails comparing Hannibal’s traits with symptoms documented in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5). Justifying the Diagnosis Hannibal Lecter meets the criteria set for a person suffering from Antisocial Personality Disorder for several reasons. For example, his behavioral patterns match those listed by the American Psychiatric Association in the DSM-5. Hannibal’s Failure to Conform to Social Norms According to DSM-V, persons suffering from Antisocial Personality Disorder fail to conform to social norms. As a result, they engage in repeated crimes, which lead to constant arrests. In the movie The Silence of the Lambs , Hannibal is portrayed as a prisoner found guilty of murder and cannibalism (Saxon, Utt & Bozman, 1991). Hannibal Lecter attacks and kills policemen in five scenarios (Harris, 1991). To show how psychotic he is, he disembowels one of the officers. In addition, he skins the face of another and uses the skin to cover his face. Other acts involving policemen include beating one to death and biting another in the face. Hannibal also murders a tourist and steals his car and money (Saxon et al., 1991). Such s
Coronavirus outbreak affected more than 20 million people worldwide and caused economic, political, and social changes at the same time. The following essay will investigate the long-term global effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, such as its impact on the social contract between state and citizen, and its influence on vulnerable members of society. In the long-term perspective, COVID-19 will require governments to expand in response to economic and social problems. The crisis might cause citizens to accept interventionism and the expansion of state responsibilities. The Great Recession of 2008 represented the beginning of these changes in the social contract. Matthew Goodwin claims that in the era of big debt, government policymakers will attempt to increase taxes and public pressure. Although, the new social contract might be different and guarantee income protection for individuals affected by the crisis while taxes would be based on accumulated wealth. The expansion of the state will have a long-term impact on the working class and marginalized populations who demonstrated their crucial role in the economy during the COVID-19 pandemic. Goodwin suggests that the coronavirus outbreak may result in stronger social solidarity and wage increases. However, I believe that the short-term increase in job insecurity and income inequalities caused by the Great Lockdown will not necessarily lead to improved working conditions and financial stability for vulnerable members of society. The crisis impacted mostly low-income workers who make up 80% of the jobs affected by COVID-19, so vulnerable populations risk being further marginalized after a job loss or wage decrease. All in all, the COVID-19 pandemic is likely to increase government expansionism and cause changes in the social contract. The changes in taxes would either protect individuals or increase public pressure. Moreover, the coronavirus outbreak might contribute to the marginalization of vulnerable individuals who lost their jobs.
Introduction This paper gives a summary on organizational communication as a competitive advantage based on the provided SHRM article. The article relays essential information on organizational communication with an aim of providing requisite incentives to enable advancement of holistic communication guidelines in institutions. Its discussion is categorized under various sections to aid understanding of the concept. Effective organizational communication as a competitive advantage As presented in the case study, communication is an imperative element that fosters performance in various facets of operation, especially in the current century, where organizations are strangled with stiff competition. It holds the capacity to advance institutions competitiveness through adoption of realistic and attainable guidelines. Evidently, institutions that are set with strong performance orientation should embrace superior communication in order to enhance performance. This is vital since effective communication is critical in ensuring that relevant policies and operational ideals are communicated promptly to stakeholders. It also opens clear channels of communication that advances employee’s participation in decision-making. This acts as a motivational element. According to researchers, employee’s exemplary performance is evident when involved in the policy formulation. This instils a sense of identity between him/her and the institution. This is earned through development of effective communication channels based on democratic principles. Managers of institutions are under obligation to formulate and integrate superior communication guidelines to boost conveyance of set policies and production guidelines to ensure that no one acts ignorantly. This is critical since inconsistent execution of activities due to inadequate communication might be detrimental to the institution’s growth. Effective communication fosters marketing activities, public relations, corporate advertising, and environmental engagements. The elements are crucial in advancing productivity and general performance in institutions. Communication in organizations As noted in the case study, communication is central in ensuring realization of exemplary performance in institutions. It enhances formulation of routine policies; builds trust and advances productivity. It is a concept that holds relevance in this century. Indeed, corporations should develop strong internal and exterior commutation channels as a performance measure to aid conveyance of marketing policies. Particularly, marketing entails promotion and advertisement of the institution’s products. Its success relies on the communication capacity and identification of viable market segments that can be attained only through adequate coordination. This can be achieved through integration of superior communication techniques capable of coordinating marketing activities. Notably, poor coordination of marketing activities does not yield superior results that might steer an institution to greater heights. It delimits market e
Introduction In many emergencies plans public health and government agencies launched, thorough organizational planning ends when death is confirmed, and the remains are “sent to the mortuary.” There is often a lack of understanding that identifying individual bodies and even bodily fragments (in the aftermath of many significant disasters) is the first and perhaps most crucial step in starting and supporting the grieving process that allows families and the entire community to respond to these incidents in a manageable manner. Thus, it is worth noting that Disaster Victim Identification is the name given to this procedure. Details Given that many multi-fatality occurrences include victims from all over the world, it is unavoidable that the investigators entrusted with identifying these victims would have been trained, accumulated expertise, and worked under the jurisdictional supervision of a variety of nations. This can be perplexing, especially when these investigatory teams are entrusted with cooperating (De Boer et al., 2019). As a result, some standardization in the identification procedure is necessary, especially when multi-jurisdictional victims and investigators are involved. It should be noted that the suggestions in this Decision Notice are backed up by an Outline Business Case, which contains preliminary evaluations and material that will be expanded upon as the implementation phase progresses. Section22a must be developed to determine and agree on crucial components of the partnership, such as the presence and continuous support of the RICC and the design, development, and funding of the planned Regional DVI Coordinator post. This agreement should also recognize the command-and-control mechanisms because the suggested employment model is a virtual hub and spoke architecture (Williams & Wienroth, 2014). Options for joint training delivery, post-incident debriefing and assistance, and recognition of health and safety factors beyond PPE should all be part of the implementation process (Johnson & Riemen, 2019). The idea to consolidate training and accreditation data into a single central system should be carefully considered since it will result in a two-tier structure within forces in skill management rather than the intended one point of truth (Ellis, 2019). Moreover, the proposed Principle 2 necessitates specific awareness of and adherence to the regulations and legislation that govern the extent of a practitioner’s investigative abilities. This does not imply that the practitioner must comprehend the legal landscape of the crime they are investigating (though in most circumstances it will be advantageous to their investigation), but it does imply that they must understand the legal powers that govern their conduct. It is their express responsibility to ensure that they always work within these limitations since any activity that strays outside of these bounds exposes practitioners to malpractice liability (Williams & Wienroth, 2014). This concept stops a practitioner from wandering into areas of problemat
Introduction The concept of career development and career education has assumed new dimensions with the rapid growth of globalization and the developments made in the field of science and technology. The developments in the 21st century have made the world a global village and students can expand their career goals and ambitions worldwide. It has resulted in changes in career trends and career information has been made accessible and available to everyone with the rapid spread of information sharing. Education for life has given way to the concept of education for a career as education is understood as a lifelong process and as there is a close link between one’s life and career. The essay tries to analyze the concepts of career development, career education, career counseling, career guidance, and career information with special reference to the Australian career development system in schools. This paper aims to identify the key elements in successful career development in the school scenario. Key elements in successful career development in a school The meaning and scope of career education have undergone great changes by the end of the 20th century. There have been many attempts to define the concepts of career education and career development. According to MCEETYA (1998), career education is “the development of knowledge, skills, and attitudes through a planned program of learning experiences in education and training settings which will assist students to make informed decisions about their study and/or work options and enable effective participation in working life. (Definition of career education, 1998). As it is evident from the quotation the primary aim of career education in schools is to provide knowledge and information regarding various career opportunities to students and to enhance their skills and attitudes to befit their personal career needs. For Simonsen (1997), carer development is an “ongoing process of planning and directed action towards personal work and life goals. Career development is the outcome of the individual’s career planning and organization’s provision of support and opportunities”. (Definition of career development in the organizational literature, 1997, p.6). Thus, it is clear that career development is a life-going process and students should be guided properly to identify their potentialities and to pursue the best possible career option for them. The Australian Blue Print for Career Development of 2006 pinpoints the key elements for successful career development programs in Australian schools. The trial version of the proposed career programs in Australian schools seeks to provide a large variety of career guidelines for the Australian students and it aims to constantly plan, implement and evaluate career programs and resources, in such a way to make the Australian students competent enough to pursue their career goals under the changed job scenario. There is no doubt that the changes in life, learning and work have drastically affected career development practices; the spread of globalization and the advancements in the field of information
Introduction Two belief systems influence the character of Tom Sawyer in The Adventure of Tom Sawyer – religious dogma and superstition. Religion may be defined as the worship of the Supernatural or God. Superstition stems from ignorance and fear of the unknown. The question that arises is if Tom’s religious beliefs are the same as his superstitious beliefs or are they in conflict. Does an analysis of Tom’s beliefs redefine the two terms? The examination of Tom Sawyer’s character shows that Mark Twain used religion and superstition as compatible forces. Tom’s Religious Opinions In the novel, the adults in the fictional village of St. Petersburg, where Tom lived, gave importance to religious practices. They insisted on practicing religion seriously and so the children of the village were made to attend Sunday school and visit church. Tom’s religious beliefs are not very firm. For Tom, religion is a perfunctory duty imposed on him by his guardian, Aunt Poly. He attends Sunday school not to gain religious education but to play with other children. According to the village custom, Tom had to visit a church every Sunday. However, he had no interest in sermons. Instead, he merrily laughed at the yelping dog that interrupted the sermon being delivered in the church (Twain 47-48). Tom does not always adhere to religious customs like saying a prayer before bed. However, religion has a moral effect on him. He feels guilty of stealing as his understanding of religion had taught him to believe so. He thinks stealing is a sin and is conscious of the divine consequences that incite fear in him. Thus, Tom’s religious beliefs were based on his idea of sin, punishment, and retribution. Clearly, religion for Tom was a duty imposed by society. The religious beliefs were not strongly internalized. However, the fear of sin had created a strong impression on the young mind and the religious code had taught Tom about moral righteousness. Tom can be considered somewhat religious as he showed some understanding of the religious moral code of conduct. However, he did not feel that religious rituals were of great importance and could be ignored as per convenience. Tom’s Superstitions Superstition had a stronger influence on Tom’s character. Religion was a mere obligation to Tom, but superstitious beliefs helped him to make decisions. Tom’s belief in witches, devil, ghosts, and evil create a strong impression on the young mind that influences many of his actions. For instance, when Tom’s tricks to find the marbles fail, he is shocked to find that his superstitious belief had failed. Therefore, he uses another
