Changes Fitness First offers the system of communication with the members of the clubs and with the people interested in their activities with the help of a special feedback channel in the website. The site and feedback channel’s main tasks are to provide the necessary information about the club. However, the activity of these resources can be more effective for the development of the company and improvement of the employees’ work when people have the opportunity to present their proposals on the improvement of the clubs’ work or definite changes which meet their demands and receive the feedback about the possibilities of discussing these proposals and their implementing. Fitness First is the customer focused company that is why it is necessary to follow the customers’ demands and regulate the work of the personnel according to the provided improvements. The success of the procedure depends on the encouragement of the innovative thinkers’ ideas on developing the programs according to the customers’ interests. Entrepreneurial department and area One of the main problems of Fitness First clubs is the lack of the opportunity to attract the trainers of the extra class. According to Porter’s National Competitive Advantage and factor conditions, it is necessary to hire skilled employees to provide the qualitative service. It is important for managers to focus on the potential and skills of the hired employees and present them the opportunity for improvement while participating in the training programs developed according to the clubs’ requirements and demand conditions (Porter 1998). These training programs are effective because they are oriented on achieving the long-term goals. The development of the training programs meets the company’s orientation on the effective structure and rivalry and the peculiarities of market domination model according to which the work of managers is organized (Cornwall, Vang, & Hartman 2009). Open communication Open communication between the employees and managers will be effective when depending on the principles of support and trust. Thus, to develop the open communication within the company, it is necessary to contribute to the development of the team building programs and corporate culture. Moreover, it is necessary to avoid the approaches which limit the communication’s development such as the leaders and managers’ focusing on details, isolation of the leader, his ‘single-mindedness’ (‘insulated leader’). In this case, the motivating communication between managers and employees is also of great importance. Two innovation champions The main task of Jan Kengelbach and Chris Stone is the solution of the problems and the prediction of the possible difficulties ( Fitness First 2012). They are the innovative thinkers within the company. However, the company develops according to the principles of stability and domination in the industry. To provide the innovative deci
The world has changed drastically over the past few years; the culture across the globe has drastically changed. There are far too many abortions taking place these days when compared to the previous years. Abortion is mainly chosen by women who choose to avoid becoming pregnant. Most of such women are unmarried women. Undergoing abortion is a very difficult step to take for any woman. It takes a lot of guts to take the decision. This paper will throw light upon why exactly abortion is unethical and should never be carried out. Most women abort because of compulsion, not out of choice. Abortion is chosen mainly by women who get pregnant prior to their marriage. This whole process of abortion is only chosen by careless people who ignore all their responsibilities towards society. Abortion is a very big risk to the health of the woman who opts to undergo an abortion. Miscarriages are one of the biggest risks involved when a woman opts for an abortion. The biggest risk is to the life of the woman who opts for an abortion. There is a high possibility of a woman losing her life when she opts to undergo an abortion. Considering the same, it is highly insensible to put an individual in a situation where abortion is the only solution. Other than being a health hazard, it speaks volumes about one’s character. In most countries, abortion is a crime, and the offenders are punished strictly by the government. South America and Africa are the two largest contributors to unsafe abortion in the world. Abortion is used by many women as a birth control measure. This goes to show the ignorance which still prevails in the world today. There are numerous methods of birth control these days, and first and foremost, it is very difficult to figure out how the consciousness of people allows them to abort children? Abortion is synonymous with murder, but in the eyes of the people who choose this option, the definition of the same is extremely different. It is foolish to put oneself in a situation where abortion is the only way out. To ensure this does not happen, it becomes imperative to spread awareness and to make the people aware of how sinful the acting process of abortion is. It is high time for the people in society to change for the better. The change will only be made when more and more people are made aware of this unmerciful act. To conclude, it is very fair to say that abortion is only chosen by chickenhearted people who don’t have the courage to face reality. In extraordinary cases like rapes, it can still be acceptable to some extent, but in normal circumstances, it was, and it will always remain unacceptable. It is high time for irresponsible people to realize that abortion is an unmerciful act and should never be chosen. The laws in all the countries should be made stricter in order to deal with abortion.

Hezbollah is a Shi’a Islamist group particularly active in Lebanon politics through the control of major social, political and economic aspects of the country (Norton 1). Hezbollah has been commonly known to provide basic social services like building schools, hospitals, and other similar amenities. Apart from this social outfit, Hezbollah is widely known as a political and resistant movement throughout the Arab world and indeed even in Western nations (Norton 1). The Arab world is extensively divided on whether to support the group’s activities but countries such as Syria and Iran have openly come out in support of the group while countries such as Egypt, Saudi Arabia and Jordan have expressed outright condemnation of the group (Norton 2). Even in the Western world, Hezbollah has not been correctly classified as either a political or terrorist group because European nations have hesitated to list it as a terrorist group while America has openly come out to condemn it as a terrorist group (Norton 3). Even as these conflicting opinions take centre stage in internationa
The play, Hamlet and the Prince of Denmark , can be described as a witty tragedy characterized by extreme indecisiveness devoid of sympathy. Hamlet is a mysterious person, seen as a strange and dramatic character in the play. He is an unsympathetic wavering individual whose indecisiveness leads to his death. At the outset, we see him as a college student who halts his education to mourn his father. His father’s death makes him outrageous to the point that he sees no value in friends or family members. Hamlet’s unsympathetic wavering character and lack of strong values cloud his judgment and elicits self-destructive vengeance for his father’s demise. His weaker beliefs and the associated doubt made him vulnerable to indecision. For example, Hamlet believed that his mother was loyal to his father and to the kingdom, but he felt unhappy with how events unfolded when grieving. According to Puchner et al. (2018), the act of his mother remarrying within a month of her husband’s death filled him with fury. His bitterness intensified when his father’s ghost appeared to Hamlet in a dream and revealed a secret about a serpent that stung his life. Hamlet believed that the traitor was his uncle, who had inherited the queen and the king’s throne. Thereafter, Prince Hamlet’s character and behavior changed drastically in the play. His resolve to avenge his father also illustrates a lack of strong values and beliefs. Unable to control the bitterness of his father’s demise, Hamlet stayed around the palace longer than expected, looking pale, carelessly dressed, and with unkempt hair. Without proof, he believed that Claudius (his uncle) planned the king’s death to take the throne, blocking him as the heir apparent. Faced with these rumors, he hesitated in avenging his father by first seeking to prove him guilty before acting. For example, he required a group of actors visiting the palace to re-enact a scene similar to the sequence of events surrounding the murder (Puchner et al., 2018). He believed that he could prove Claudius’s guilt this way and act. In the theater, when the murder scene arrives, Hamlet’s uncle exits the room immediately. He concludes, along with Horatio, that Claudius’s action is proof that he is guilty (Puchner et al., 2018). Hamlet then conspires to avenge his father’s demise.

The articles in question dwell upon such environmental issues as the use of pesticides and other chemicals, biofuel and the development of biotechnology. Thus, it is noted that now scientists and ecologists are concerned with the use of chemicals which should be reduced. It is pointed out that large companies producing chemicals have always opposed people’s claims concerning the harmfulness of chemicals. The case of Rachel Carson, who wrote the famous Silent Spring , is provided as the example of this opposition. Undoubtedly, now people try to address these problems again. Thus, scientists try to gain the ban of certain pesticides (e.g. neonicotinoid which kills honeybees). Authors also reveal the perspectives in rice growing. Thus, it is noted that Asian farmers are encouraged to use less pesticides (which kill pests as well as ‘useful’ organisms which can be natural ‘guards’). The farmers are told about advances in rise growing. Notably, many farmers have acknowledged the advantages of decrease in the use of pesticides. They understood that it is more profitable for them. Of course, it is also beneficial for the environment. The authors also note that large corporations try to oppose such practices. Luckily, governments of Asian countries have also acknowledged the necessity to ban some chemicals. The articles also deal with some new ways to increase yields without using pesticides. Thus, agroforestry is considered to be a very effective way to manage land. This approach helps to avoid land degradation. Another way to address problems various farmers face is biotechnology. Thus, one of the articles is concerned with the advantages, downsides, threats and perspectives in this sphere. Admittedly, among the risks the author points out human health concerns, environmental concerns, food system sustainability. Thus, it is still unclear whether products of biotechnology can be harmful for human health. There are many
Introduction The book ‘I Heard the Owl Call My Name’ was written by Margaret Craven to address the issue of culture clash in the people of Kwakiutl in British Columbia. It was written in the 1960s in the Kingcome village. The protagonist in the book is Mark Brian a vicar, newly ordained by the Anglican Church in his twenties and then he is sent to his most difficult task, among the people of Tsawataineuk, an American Indian tribe. Mark struggles to gain the trust of these people who are also struggling with their usual life against modern ways What Mark does not know is the fact that he has only a few more years to live; his death is closer. Ultimately, Mark is accepted by the villagers and they invite him to stay with them until he dies, as he has accepted the inevitability of his death. Keetah in the end marries Jim instead of Gordon. Purpose The purpose of this novel is achieved through the brilliant depiction of various themes that are illustrated in the novel. This novel deals with very serious problems faced by the characters, and it is through these problems that we see the author’s theme illustration. The author has addressed several themes in the work. The theme of cultural clashing has been highlighted by the fact that it is obvious and unavoidable and that it comes with some tragic effects. The theme of change has also been depicted clearly where the writer has shown that, just like we cannot escape clashes where two cultures are coming together, we cannot escape change in day-to-day human life. The book also brings us to the realities of life whereby we are supposed to understand that as we celebrate life, we should be aware of the looming presence of death. The title of the book brings out the presence of death through superstition, an owl calling the name of a person, which is believed to mean the person will soon die. Review During the stay in the village, there are so many things that the vicar learned. The most important of them is the meaning of life. As he lived with these Indians, Mark realized that the celebration of life prepared one for death. When he learned about the death of the swimmer (salmon), he and Jim went to seek the swimmer’s end. In the due course, he gains a better understanding of death. As he reflects on the things he has learned while on a boat trip, he realizes that he has stumbled on the clues that he is dying. When Mark arrived in the village, the Indians were reluctant in trusting him. This is because they were afraid of the influence that the strangers brought to their land. The intrusion by the white people especially the officials did not bring any positive results. Instead, there were many negative things that they (Indians) took after. The officers for once delayed the burial of the young boy, something that surprised the vicar. When the vicar presided over the burial, he realized that the burial was incomplete. The villagers had their cultural ceremony in which the vicar was not welcome because they had not established full trust in him. The ceremony was conducted in the ancient Elizabethan Kwakwala, which was no longer known to the young (Craven, p. 28). This in
Abstract This paper addresses the responsibilities of upholding safety and reducing injuries in housekeeping. The paper argues that housekeepers have an individual responsibility to ensure that they uphold safe work practices. The paper further indicates that employers have a responsibility to provide the housekeeping employees with protective gear and safe working environments. Employers also have a responsibility to train their housekeeping employees about relevant safety practices. The paper concludes by noting that regardless of how safety practices are enforced in the workplace, injuries cannot be completely reduced since housekeepers are exposed to heavy workloads, which brings about cumulative trauma injuries. Introduction Housekeeping jobs are physically demanding and stressful. Studies conducted in the housekeepers’ work environment found out that workers stand the risk of suffering from musculoskeletal injuries due to the repetitive lifting of items (Liladrie, 2010). Additionally, studies indicate that in addition to heavy lifting, housekeeping jobs involve repetitive reaching and pulling (Cheng & Chan, 2009). Such actions can be damaging to the skeletal or muscular anatomy of the workers. In addition to lifting and carrying heavy objects, housekeepers are also exposed to chemicals, body fluids, cleaning detergents, electricity and steam. All the aforementioned items and substances pose a risk to the wellbeing of individual housekeepers if not well handled. This paper provides a detailed discussion that addresses housekeeping safety and injury prevention. The paper borrows insight from a wide range of literature sources and notes that housekeeping employees need to be educated on matters related to reducing their exposure to risk. Hospitality service providers also have an obligation to ensure that their employees are given roles that they can handle without over-exertion. In other words, the paper champions a case of dual responsibility for both employees and employers, in order to enhance housekeepers’ safety. Hazard Analysis Cleaning chemicals are present in the most basic cleaning agents. Although such cleaning agents are vital in ensuring that a housekeeper does his cleaning duties effectively and without much strain, they also contain hazardous chemicals. Walker (2011) identifies the potential hazard areas on the human body as injuries to the eyes and face. Additionally, housekeepers risk inhaling chemical fumes or getting burns or irritation from chemicals. To uphold safety and prevent injuries, Walker (2011) suggests that housekeepers should wear protective garments while working; this includes face shields where necessary, respirators, gloves, long sleeved aprons and goggles. Body fluids can also transmit infections if not well-handled. The Canadian Centre
In the August of 2008, the city of Beijing in the People’s Republic of China had the auspicious opportunity to host the Summer Olympic Games. This was a big opportunity for the country to emerge into the international stage as a nation that can handle big public displays and events that have been hosted in Europe and the US and some other developed countries for quite a while. In the run-up to the Olympics, the North American press saw many articles about the coming Olympics and its organization by the Communist Party of China. The paper is an attempt to identify the trends and the manner of the reporting one month prior to the Olympic Games using the New York Times. Before the Olympics started, there was already a great deal of talk surrounding China’s human rights record and some were touting this as the event to pressure China into changing its policies to provide fundamental human rights to its citizens. As Edward Said pointed out, one can see many elements of bias about the Orient in some of the articles. In an August 22 article, the Chinese authorities are lambasted for their efforts to improve the English used in restaurants and hotels and sometimes delivering pre-fabricated signboards to various places of commerce (Terrill). This has been highlighted along with the nature of punishments for those who falter. In the context of the subject, the author is correct about some of the extreme measures of censorship being adopted by the authorities but the whole vein in which the articles are written speaks of a marginalizing attitude. Every country that hosts the Olympics wants to present itself in a good manner and if extra harsh efforts are made by the authorities on the part of China, it could be considered in a good way as well. It definitely does not harm anyone. The same argument can be extended to some of the reporting about the steps China took to hide unsavory parts of the city from the eyes of tourists. An article on July 29th (Hooker) and one on August 9th (Yardley) talk of the Chinese steps to hide are
