Night World : The Chosen Chapter 12
The voice was shrill, almost hysterical.Unbalanced, Rashel thought dazedly, looking around. The sound of her secret universe yelled bulge sh turn tabuedstunned her.But retri besidesive for an instant. The contiguous moment she was moving swiftly between the rows of girls, looking fornyalaI k presently why youre present(predicate) nyala sat up tensely. She looked just as she had when Rashel had detectn her proceed, cocoa skin, queenly whirl, wide haunted look. She was even togged up in the same injustice clothes shedbeen wearing the night they caught Quinn.Youre dissipateher because you were in on it tout ensemble a unyielding You pretend to be a vampire hunter-Shut up Rashel verbalize desperately. Nyala was shouting loud enough to be perceive on the some other sideof the door. She knelt on Nyalas bed. Im not pretending, Nyala.Then how come youre free and were all chained up? Youre on their side You call yourself the Cat-Rashel clamped a pass on over her mouth. comp rehend to me, she hissed. Her heart was pounding. All the girls around her were staring and sheexpected to hear the basement door control at severally moment. Nyala, listen. I ack directledge you dont ex swopable me or trustme- that youve got to stop yelling that. We may only lease superstar chance to yield out of here.Nyalas chest was heaving. Her eyes, the color of dark plums, st ared into Rashels.I am a vampire hunter, Rashel whispered, willing Nyala to retrieve it. I made a mistake letting thatvampire go that night I admit it. But Ive been trying ever since to frame things even off. I got captured onpurpose so I could find out what was passing on here-and now Im difference to try to outwit all these girls free.She spoke slowly and distinctly, hoping Nyala could sense the truth of her words. But, Nyala, if the nighttime mass find out Im a vampire hunter-much less the Cat-they are going to take me out and kill me set this minute. And because I dont mobilise the rest of you have a chance.She stopped to breathe. I know its adeptrous to trust me. But please, please try. Do you imply you rear end dothat?A long pause. Nyalas eyes searched hers. Then, at last, Nyala nodded.Rashel alikek her hand rack up Nyalas mouth. She sat plump for on the bed and they stared at each other. give thanks you, Rashel said. Im going to need your help. Then she shake her betoken. But how did you gethere? How did you find the club?I didnt find any club. I went ass to that street with the warehouses on Wednesday. I thought maybethe vampire tycoon come back. And because-somebody grabbed me from slowly.Oh, Nyala. Wednesday night, Rashel thought. The night Daphne saw Ivan carry in a upstart girl and puther on a cot. That girl was Nyala. Rashel put a hand to her chieftain. Nyala-I almost saved you. I was at that placethe next night-when Daphne skin out of the truck. Do you remember that? If I had only knownNyala wasnt listening. Then there was this whisp er in my headland, telling me to sleep. And I couldnt pass away-I couldnt move my arms or my legs. But I wasnt asleep. And hence he carried me into a warehouseand he bit me. Her voice was detached, almost pleasant. But her eyes froze Rashel in stray.He bit me in the neck and I knew I was going to die, just share my sister. I could feel the blood approach out. I treasured to scream but I couldnt move. I couldnt do anything. She smiled oddly at Rashel. Ill tellyou a secret. Its even there, the bite. You cant see it, but its still there. She glum her head to show asmooth blameless neck.Oh, God, Nyala. Rashel had felt awkward trying to make gestures of comfort with Daphne, butnow she didnt think. She just grabbed Nyala and hugged her hard.Listen to me, she said fiercely. I know how you feel. I mean-no, I dont know, because it hasnthappened to me. But Im sorry. And I know how you felt when you lost your sister. She leaned backand looked at Nyala, almost shaking her. But we have to salvage fighting. Thats whats consequential salutarynow. We cant let them win. Right?Yes Nyala looked slowly around her bed, then up at Rashel. Yes, thats right. Her eyes dependedto sharpen and focus.Im making a conception to get out of here. And you have to stay unagitated and help me.Yes. Nyala sounded to a greater extent definite this time. Then she smiled almost serenely and whispered, Andwell get our revenge.Yeah. Rashel touch her hand. Somehow, we will. I promise you.She walked back to her cot feeling eyes on her, although nobody asked any questions. Her own eyeswere stinging.What had happened to Nyala was her fault. The girl had already been on the edge, and because ofRashel, shed gotten herself caught and attacked by a vampire. And nowNow Rashel was worried slightly Nyalas sanity, even if they did manage to get off the island.Shes right rough one thing, though, Rashel thought. Revenge. Its the only way to wipe out the things thathave been done to these girls.The f overlook in her chest was back-as if there were coals where her throat and heart ought to be. She let it temper her and burn away any stray thoughts of mercy for Quinn. Strange how she unplowed having thoughtsof him, long after shed made the resolution to kill him.Is she okay? Daphne said worriedly. I remember her from the warehouse.I know. Rashel took the lockpick and sat on Daphnes cot. She began to work at Daphnes shackles.I dont know if shes okay. The vampires havent been living in harmony with her. She glanced bitterly atFayth, who just looked back gravely and steadily.Nobody thinks all the Night hoi polloi are good, Fayth said. Or all the humans. We dont approve ofviolence. We want to stop it all.Well, sometimes it takes violence to stop violence, Rashel said shortly. Fayth didnt answer.But why was she calling you a cat? Daphne asked. Rashel could feel Fayths gaze on her. The Cat. Its the name of a vampire hunter, one whos killed a lotof vampires.Daphnes dark blue eyes wi dened slightly. Is it you?Rashel sprung a lock. Somehow, with these cardinal girls staring at her, she didnt feel quite so brash as shehad a moment ago. She didnt feel terribly proud of be the Cat.Without looking up, she said, Yes. Then she glanced behind her at Fayth.Fayth said nothing.Theres going to be more killing before this is all done, Rashel said. And I cant think of anybody whodeserves it more than the vampires who brought us here. So you let me take care of that, and we wontargue close to(predicate) it. All right? She sprung the other lock on Daphnes shackles. Daphne immediately stretchedher legs luxuriously, then swung them to the floor. Fayth just nodded slowly.All right, then. Listen. The first thing weve got to do is get these girls organized. Rashel move to workon Fayths chains. Youre both good talkers. I want the dickens of you to go around and talk to themindividually. I want to know whos going to be able to help us and whos still under mind control. I wantto know whos going to be a problem. And I especially want to know who has any experience withboats.Boats? Fayth said.No place on this island is safe. We have to get off. There are four boats in the harbor right now- if wecan just find somebody to superintend them. She looked from Daphne to Fayth. I want you to bring meback at least two sensible girls who have some chance of not sinking a powerboat. Got it?Daphne and Fayth glanced at each other. They nodded. Right, boss, Daphne murmured, and theystarted off.Rashel sat, weighing a chain in her hand andthinking. There was no need to tell Daphne-yet-that she didnt plan to ship out with the boats.Half an hour later Daphne and Fayth stood before her beam. At least Daphne was beaming Faythwas wearing that grave smile that was starting to drive Rashel crazy.Allow me to assign Annelise, Daphne said, leading Rashel to a cot. Originally a native of Denmark.Shes done the flow circuit in Antigua-whatever that means. Anyway, she says she can ha ndle a boat.The girl in the cot was one of the oldest there, eighteen or nineteen. She was blond, long-legged, andbuilt like a Valkyrie. Rashel liked her at once. And this is Keiko over here, Fayth said in her simpleway. Shes young, but she says she grew up around boats.This one Rashel wasnt so sure about. She was tiny, with hair like black silk and a uprisette mouth. Shelooked like a collectors doll. How old are you?Thirteen, Keiko said softly. But I was born on Nantucket. My parents have a Ciera Sunbridge. I thinkI can do what youre asking-its just the sailplaning that worries me. There isnt anybody else, Daphne stage-whispered in Rashels ear. So my advice is we trust the kid.I think the sailplaning will be straight west, Rashel said. She smiled reassuringly at Keiko. Anyway,even the open ocean will be safer than here. She gestured to Daphne and Fayth to come back to theircorner.Okay. Good job. Youre right about trusting the kid I dont think we have any other choice. Wedefinite ly need two boats for all these girls. What else did you find out?Well, the ones that are still under mind control are the ones that came with us, Daphne said. Juanitaand Missy. And the one that might cause trouble is your buddy Nyala. Shes not completely hinged, ifyou know what I mean.Rashel nodded. The mind control may be a problem-how long did it take to wear off the others, Fayth?A day or so after they came in. But thats not the only problem, Rashel. Annelise and Keiko think theycan handle the boats-but not tonight. Not until tomorrow.We cant wait until tomorrow, Rashel said impatiently. Thats cutting it way too fine.I dont think we have a choice. Rashel, all these girls are tranquilized. Drugged.Rashel blinked. How-? She close down her eyes. Oh.The food, Fayth said, as Rashel nodded in resignation. I realized right off that there was something init. I think most of the girls know-and theyd rather be tranquilized than think about whats happening tothem.Rashel rubbed her forehea d wearily. No wonder the girls hadnt asked her any questions. No wonderthey werent all screaming their heads off. They were doped to the gills.From now on weve got to encumber them from eating, she said. They need clear heads if were going toescape. She looked at Fayth. Okay. We wait. But thats going to make anything more dangerous.How often do they bring food in here?Twice a day. Late morning and around eight at night. And then they take us to the bathroom two bytwo.Who does it?Rudi. sometimes he has another werewolf with him.Daphne bit her lip anxiously. Are we equipped for werewolves?Rashel smiled. Holding her knife, she pulled the decorative knob at the end of the sheath. It came off,revealing a metal trade name. She reversed the knob and stuck it in the end of the sheath, so the blade stuckout like a bayonet. The hard wooden sheath itself was now a weapon. The blade is silver-coated steel, she said in satisfaction. We are equipped for werewolves.You see? Daphne said to Fayt h. This girl thinks of everything.Rashel put the knife away. All right. Lets talk to everybody again. I want to explain my plan. When wedo this tomorrow night, its going to take cooperation and precision.And, she thought, a lot of luck.Chow timeRudi walked between the rows of cots, tossing packages from a plastic beauty to either side of him. Helooked, Rashel thought, exactly like a trainer throwing herring to seals.She scanned the aisle behind him. No other werewolf at the door. Good.It had been a long night and a longer day. The girls were dizzy from lack of food, keyed up, and gettingmore tense with each untranquilized hour. A twosome of them couldnt seem to shake their first impressionof Rashel-which had come from Nya-las yelling.Eat up, girlies. Got to keep up your strength. A slightly warm foil package hit Rashels lap, another hitthe mattress. Same thing as brunch-hot dogs of the kind you get at a convenience store. Smeared withmustard and drugs. The girls had been survivin g on the grapefruit juice hed poured for them.As Rudi turned to throw a package to Juanita, Rashel rose smoothly from her cot. In one motion sheleaped and came down right on target.Dont make a sound, she said in Rudis ear. And dont even think about changing.She had his arm twisted behind his back and the silver knife to his throat. Rudi didnt seem to know howhed gotten there. There were hot dogs all over the floor.Now, Rashel said. Lets talk about jujitsu. This is what you call a proper hold. Resistance to it willcause sober pain and quite possibly a fractured joint. Are you getting this, Rudi? Rudi wiggled a littleand Rashel exerted pressure upward on his knuckles. Rudi yelped and danced on his toes.Hush What I want to know is, where is the other werewolf?Guarding the dock.Who else is on the dock?I-nobody.Is there anybody on the stairs or in the kitchen? Dont lie to me, Rudi, or Ill get annoyed.No. Theyre all in the gathering room.Rashel nodded at Daphne. Daphne jumped out of her bed. Remember- loyal and soft everybody, she said, like a cheerleader whod been promoted to drillsergeant.Rashel felt Rudi boggle as every girl in the room kicked off her covers and stood up free.What the-what the-Now, Rudi. Keeping his cubitus trapped against her, Rashel exerted pressure again, moving him easilyin the direction she wanted. You go first. Youre going to unlock the top door for us.Annelise and Keiko in strawman, Daphne said. Missy right here. Lets go.I cant unlock it. I cant. Theyll kill me, Rudi muttered, as Rashel moved him up the stairs.Rudi, look at these young women. Rashel swung him around so he had a good view of the prisonersbehind him. They stood in one tense,dear-eyed, lightly active mass. Rudi, if you dont unlock that door, I am going to tie you up and offeryou alone with them and this silver knife. I promise, whatever the vampires do to you wont beworse.Rudi stared at the girls, who stared back at him. All ages, all sizes, united.Ill unlock the door.Goo d boy.He fumbled getting the door open. When it was done, Rashel pushed him through first, looking tenselyaround. If there were vampires here, she had to change tactics fast.The kitchen was empty-and unison was blasting from somewhere inside the house. Rashel gave a quicksavage grin. It was a lucky break she wouldnt have dared to pray for. The music might just save thesegirls lives.She pulled Rudi out of the way and nodded to Daphne.Daphne stood at the head of the stairs, silently waving the girls out. Fayth led the way with the ValkyrieAnnelise and the tiny Keiko behind her. The other girls hurried past, and Rashel was proud of how quietthey were.Now, she whispered, pushing Rudi back into the stairwell. One last question. Whos throwing thebloodfeast?Rudi shook his head.Who hire you? Who bought the slaves? Whos the client, Rudi?I dont know Im telling you Nobody knows who hired us. It was all done on the phoneRashel hesitated. She wanted to keep quizzical him-but right now the imp ortant thing was to get thegirls off the island. Daphne was still waiting in the kitchen, watching Rashel.Rashel looked at her and then helplessly at Rudis bushy brown head. She should kill him. It was the onlysmart thing to do, and it was what shed intend to do. He was a conspirator in the plan to brutally shoot twenty-four teenage girls-and he enjoyed it.But Daphne was watching. And Fayth would give her that look if she heard Rashel had done him in.Rashel let out her breath. Sleep tight, she said, and hit Rudi on the head with the hilt of her knife.He slumped unconscious and she shut the cellar door on him. She turned quickly to Daphne. Lets go.Daphne almost skipped ahead of her. They went out the back door and picked up the hiking path.Rashel moved swiftly, loping across the beaten-down wild grass. She caught up to the string of girls.Thats it, Missy, she whispered. Nice and quiet. Nyala, youre limp does your leg hurt? A littlefaster, everybody.She made her way up to the front. Okay, Annelise and Keiko. When we get there, Ill take care of theguard. Then you know what to do.Find which boats we can handle. Destroy whatever we can on the others and set them adrift. Then eachtake half the girls and head west, Annelise said.Right. If you cant make it to land, do your best and then call the Coast Guard.But not right away, Keiko put in. carve up of islanders use ship-to-shore radio instead of telephones. Thevampires may be monitoring it.Rashel squeezed her shoulder. shiny girl. I knew you were right for the job. And remember, if you docall the Coast Guard, dont give the right name of the boat and dont mention this island. It was perfectlypossible that there were Night People in the Coast Guard.They were almost at the bottom of the cliff, and so far no alarms had sounded. Rashel scanned themoving group again, then became aware that Daphne was behind her.Everything okay?So far, Daphne said breathlessly. She added, Youre good at this, you know. Encouraging them a ndall.Rashel shook her head. Im just trying to keep them together until theyre not my problem anymore.Daphne smiled. I think thats what I just said.The wharf was below them, the boats bobbing quietly. The ocean was calm and glassy. Silver moonlightgave the scene a postcard look. Ye Olde Quaint Marina, Rashel thought.She loped to the front again. Stay behind me all of you. She added to Daphne, Ill show you what Im good at.A hardly a(prenominal) feet of rocks and sand and she was on the wharf. Eyes on the shack, knife ready, she movedsilently. She wanted to take care of the werewolf without noise, if possible.Then a dark haoma came hustling out of the shack into the moonlight. It took one look at Rashel andthrew back its head to howl.
Crime Reporting
William P Obptande Check topographic point Crime Reporting and Rates Response Write a 200- to 300-word solvent in which you address the following questions What is the purpose of major disgust-reporting course of studys? What makes a productive crime-reporting program in the United States? Programs generally report little comminuted information about program expenditures and results. Consequently, it is difficult to hold programs accountable for performance. in that respect is also a lack of information about which programs are potent in reducing crime, due to the small identification number of programs that are evaluated for effectiveness.In addition, even when information is available, it is not consistently used to modify program design and funding. There is a lack of coordination among the multiple state departments that grant crime prevention programs which results in duplication of effort and inefficiencies. Develop regularize review criteria which open fire be use d to determine funding allocations for rude(a) and existing crime prevention programs. Require and fund well-designed impact evaluations that append knowledge about the types of crime prevention programs which are effective, and therefore should be funded.Establish a state crime prevention office in spite of appearance an existing entity or new organization to develop a st numbergical plan to coordinate statewide crime prevention activities. How do crime rates relate to fetch rates and head rates? Is there a way to improve the correlation between crime rates, arrest rates, and headway rates in the effort to combat criminal practise? * Clearance rate is calculated by dividing the number of crimes that are change e. g. due to a charge being laid) by the total number of crimes recorded.These are used by various criminal justice groups as a measure of crimes solved by the natural law. Clearance rates can be very problematic for measuring the performance of police function and for comparing various police services. This is because a police force may employ a very contrastive way of measuring clearance rates. For example, each police force may harbor a different method of recording when a crime has occurred and different criteria for determining when a crime has been cleared. One police force may appear to have a much better clearance rate simply because of its computing methodology. In System Conflict Theory, it is argued that clearance rates cause the police to focus on appearing to solve crimes (generating high clearance rate scores) rather than actually solving crimes. Further focus on clearance rates may result in effort being expended to arrogate crimes (correctly or incorrectly) to a criminal, which may not result in retribution, compensation, reformation or deterrence.

We love in a world where there atomic number 18 some community that persist to plentycel out. And we live in a world where there argon some people who eat to live. Also, we live in a world where people are struggling to eat in order to live. We reside in a world where there are many societies that eat different aliments found on their gardenings and the region of the world where they live. As humans, the majority of us take in and places our food in our m let ouths. In this biological process, the food is chewed and goes down into our esophagus channeling into our stomachs.This whole process necessitates our blood, tissues, muscles, bones, synapses and brain function. In addition, the largest organ of our bodies which is our skin is in any case affected with this food process by the choices of the kinds of food we eat. What is so applicable just about this information? First of all, what does it matter what kind of foods we eat? Who cares? Do you think our bodies respo nd to the food we choose to eat knowing that this is painful for us? Is it a habit to eat foods we were taught to eat? Have we fail so accustomed to this habit that we do not venture to seek the tastes of other foods from other cultures?In America, we reside in a culture where our Western values appear to be more(prenominal) concerned about the taste of manufactured and processed foods. We need to explore how our beginnings nurtured the earth with ingrained foods to instill into our bodies. We do have a choice. We can continue to drop off our bodies with artificial ingredients or we can live well-preserved lives with the inseparable and call up tastes of food from our ancestors heritages African, European, Asian, Latino, Mexican, Hispanic, and Middle Eastern etc. wherefore are these food thoughts and words necessary?Because Food weaves in and out of our novels from Shange, Morrison, Bailey, Naylor, Marshall, Dash etc. Therefore, due to this food consciousness, the followin g explains how I claimed a new food journey. I have adopted the foods of the Geechee Gullah (excluding the pork) to include in my diet. As my tissues and my flesh continue to change, I am very sleepless what I store into my physical system.I realize how essential it is to allocate a food reality with young people to inform them what they eat now and continue to eat into their 30?s, 40? s and 50? s will affect not only their bodies, this will affect their spirits as well. It is not enough to come to the table in the kitchen or the dining room or the Maidah spread on the floor, degustation all the colorful and delicious foods tour sharing it with family. What if food choices while eating with family, cause an illness? What if we eat too much food? Is it possible to lose our sense of connection when not eating healthy?We have to understand who our bodies are first, in order to understand the unearthly aspects of how good food is filled with healing powers All of this creates where we come from, who we are and where we are going. Can you, as the reader of this article explain what this writer did not include in the following questions in reference to primaeval themes (see words in parenthesis) in our novels? be we those that can (fly? ) Are we those that can (sing? ) Are we those that can (dance? ) Are we those that can (cook? ) Do we (connect) with our heritage?Are we those women that speak and voice the truth to our bodies and protect our flesh, knowing we are more than just flesh that embodies our blood, bones, tissues and muscles?

The structure of the play Blood Brothers
At the start of the ladder , w incur the shutting of the tactical manoeuvre , a flash back, although at this peak we do not take a crap its the end , all(a) we see is 2 men dead on the floor and a truly rich and creepy music can be heard , leaving the auditory modality wondering what is going on. Then we regulate of what is going on as the fabricator recites a handing over that we here a few propagation in the knead As uniform each otherwise as two sensitive pins, of angiotensin-converting enzyme womb born on the self same day, how one was kept and one given away? An did you neer hear how the Johnstons stopd, never knowing that they sh atomic number 18d one name till the day they died, when a mother cried, my knowledge dear sons lie slay this passage tells the consultation whats ascertaining and gives away the p weed, scarce it doesnt ruin it for the audience as there is noneffervescent information they do not know for example, how did they die? Why did they not know they were brothers? And lots more questions, do them to be more indulged in the fetch.ComplicationThe complication in the ladder is when Mrs. Johnstone is forced to give up one of her sons to Mrs. Lyons to avoid losing them both to genial services or going into so much debt that she just couldnt find after them. If this part of the dissemble didnt hap, there sincerely would be no joke as it would mean Eddie and rice paddy wouldnt afford to meet and they would never be issue blood brothers, Eddie wouldnt go to university because he wouldnt of been able to afford it and Eddie wouldnt of had the effectual job and been able to give Linda money later on in the play and give paddy field a job.Rising actionformer(a) small complications in the play that be added in to make it more interesting and add more action are important to the play also. The discern triangle between Mickey, Eddie and Linda, with give away this part of the play Linda wouldnt have cheated on Mickey cavictimization Mickey to line up jealous and seek out Eddie to kill him at the end of the play. But another complication which was alert and the reason that Linda cheated was Sammie shooting the man and Mickey going to prison for it , if this didnt happen Mickey wouldnt of got depressed had to take his Tablets , he wouldnt of slowly pushed Linda away, and as I said , Linda wouldnt have cheated.ClimaxThe climax of the play is pellucidly the end sequence which starts with Mrs Lyons who at this point in the play has become a paranoid clank showing/telling Mickey that Edward and Linda are together, This is a catalyst for the ending e rattlingthing in the play after this point drives up (the music, the speech the movement) Mickey is outraged by what he now knows astir(predicate) his wife and Ex best friend so he runs groundwork finds the gun that Sammie used to shoot the man earlier in the play and goes in search of Eddie , during this he the female characters realise wh ats about to happen and emotions hit there peaks hes . Mickey. Mickeys got a gun (Mrs. J) (p97) the tension and speed increases more and more as we get closer to the end. Shouting and call increases the tension, Mickey reminds the audience of what has happened throughout the play FREINDS I could kill you. We were Friends werent we? split brothers, wasnt it? Remember? then it finally hits the peak when Mrs Johnstone tells them there brothers and they both are shot, Mickey by the police officer then Edward by Mickey. root wordThe solution, although sad is the two parallel dying, if it wasnt for them not knowing they were twins the play would never have been, that nothing could be peaceful and advanced until the problem made at the start which was them, was taken away. The secrets and lies had to come deprive for the play to be ended and that meant Mrs Johnstone had to learn from her mistakes, she had to be punished for her mistakes and the superstitious notion which pays such a key part in this play had to come true.Finally we end the Play how it started with the mysterious Narrator repeating the passage said at the start Did you ever here the story of the johnstone twins , As ilk each other as two new pins, of one womb born on the self same day, how one was kept and one given away? An did you never hear how the Johnstons died, never knowing that they shared one name till the day they died, when a mother cried, my experience dear sons lie slain.The cashierThe narrator in the play plays a very important character in the play, give care most narrators he tell the story, but this narrator is meagrely more mysterious and complicated than most. He is a ghost like figure He seems to always be there, but is never seen by the characters, he is truly like a ghost , in slightly parts of the play he touches the characters they turn round to see who it was but they seem to see nothing although the audience see him there.I have said that the narrator plays a gho st like figure other interpretations of him would be an evil spirit or the devil, I wouldnt Say he was ever like a guardian angel though because all his references are to bad things in the play, he is never really near when happy and comical parts of the play E.G when there children are acting guns but is ever present when tension and anger is involved in the scene , also his song The devils got your number suggests he may be the devil or an evil spirit in connection with the devil. The narrator also continuously refers back to superstition reminding the audience of a very key ingredient in the play. His lines are never blunt and straight off to the point either, they normally are in riddles to make the audience mobilize.ThemesThe themes in Blood brothers are constantly referred to and gone back to throughout the play, usually reminded to the audience by the narrator but also quite obvious in the play. The first is fate this is mainly shown through the flash back, we see what t he ending is like and we are also told by the narrator so throughout the play we know its going to end up like the start. The second and proberly most important theme is superstition new topographic point on the table, take them off this theme is a main factor of fear in the play , Mrs johnstone is forever scared to let Mickey and Eddie play and be friends as she is scared if they find out they are brothers they will both die , like Mrs. Lyons said.The final theme is love, love pays a key part and links with superstition Mrs Johnstone loves both her sons and doesnt involve them to die , But due to the love triangle between Linda , Eddie and Mickey she has to tell them showing how destructive love really is. The love of various classs is also shown in the play, we see Mrs Lyons and upper class citizen being very over protective of Eddie because she loves him so much she doesnt want him get thinned in comparison to Mrs johnstone who would rather show her love by allow Mickey enj oy himself and have fun.DancingDancing is referred to a lot in the play especially in a lot of the songs, were Mrs. Johnstone refers to a lover taking her dancing or not taking her dancing. again dancing is compared in the two kindly classes in the play Mrs Lyons teaches Edward to terpsichore in a very traditional way E.g. a Waltz, were as Mickey Dances to a disco music and Rocky music reflecting on the character as Edward jumps a more mature and educated dance and Mickey dances a more playful Un educated dance which doesnt have much structure.Dreams and ambitionsEvery Character in the play has there own dreams and ambitions again these are Very different over the two social classes. To start though Mrs Lyons has the dream of having a child, so when Mrs. Johnstone comes to her with twins that she doesnt count on she can look after Mrs Lyons jumps at the opportunity. In Mrs. Johnstone matter she dreams of getting a new husband, moving house, Getting money, she also gets all the things she wants but these things seem to all cause problems later on in the play , for example Mrs Lyons gets her Child but ends turning into a paranoid wreck because she feels the burden of the secret of adopting Mrs Js baby illegally is always upon her.In Mrs Johnstons case moving house and getting a new man is really ruined as they move to were The Lyons family have escaped to and Mickey and Eddie make up together, if this wouldnt of happened they proberly would of forgotten each other preventing both there deaths. both(prenominal) Mickey and Eddies dreams and ambitions also cause destruction there dreams to be like the other seems to cause jealousy which eventually causes Mickey to shoot Eddie, Eddies dreams of university separates the 3 friends leaving Mickey to fend for himself and make the wrong choices. So to stub up every ones dreams and ambitions seem to come true in the play but they all seem to backfire on the characters. coquet gunsToy guns is an issue covered in th e play which causes many problems, when the characters are kids they play with toy guns as said in the song they can get up after a count to ten , they cant die when they play with toy guns they dont understand the dangers of guns , this lack of understanding is carried out into there adulthood and it results in Mickey being put in prison when Sammie pulls the trigger and shoots someone , but still Mickey does not learn his lesson, in the final scene when Mickey holds the gun to Eddie I dont think he means to shoot him , I think he is using it to scare Edward and due to his naivety when he shoots Eddie he kills him , he kills his own brother and best friend. He has never grown up, he is still a kid inside, but the weapon he holds has.

What Would You Do?
Incredulous, you replied, You stopped? How many billions of dollars did It damage to build brand loyalty around the Taurus name? Well, youve got until tomorrow to find a vehicle to put the Taurus name on. Then, you bugger off two courses to make a new Taurus which had best be the coolest vehicle that you can possibly make.

Ford still lost SSL 2. 6 billion your second year and $2. 7 billion your third. With losses still mounting, the first major contend you need to address is vehicle customization, that is, maximizing consumer choice by producing several(predicate) cars with variant parts for different world markets. Vehicle customization originated in 1967 when Fords European operations were created to design and manufacture cars Just for Europe. Consequently, when Ford attempted to cut costs by creating a common world car to be sold In Europe and the united States, It failed.The resulting cars (yes, cars), one designed In Detroit and the other In Germany, were completely different except for two sh atomic number 18 parts. The second major issue is that Fords vigilance teams have difficulty staying on tar gear up and tracking company performance. Even with downsizing, Ford is a interlacing company with 205,000 employees, multiple product lines, and international operations on quartette continents. Surprisingly, Fords managers only stay in their Jobs a few years. And, If youre off to your adjoining Job and dont have to live with the consequences of your decisions, why are about whether you chance your departments or divisions goals?The final Issue Is that contentious relationships between Fords divisions have produced impaired decision making. Different geogr aphic regions and functional divisions, such as engineering, production, and sales, are more interested in doing what they want than what is best for Ford as a whole. Feelings on this issue are so strong that your management team pleaded with you to remove Fords blue logo from one of your Powering presentations so as not to alienate those who worked for Fords Volvo, Jaguar, and Lincoln divisions.At the time you agreed, but now sustain it was a mistake. Three years ago, you arranged for $23 billion in loans to get the company through tough times. And with Chrysler and GM in bankruptcy, and patience sales off 35 percent, youve needed every dime. But, youre 65 percent through those funds, so youve got to address these key Issues. Fords survival depends on it. If you were the chief executive officer AT For a, want would you 00? Questions 1 . Should Ford continue to make different cars for Europe and the United States? If so, how do you lower expenses?If not, then how do you get the c ompany to produce the world cars, when it has failed to do so before? What should Fords strategic objective be here? 2. Beyond making managers stay long-acting in their Jobs, which wont be popular, how allow you change Fords culture so that managers profits attention to company plans and feel accountable for meeting performance targets? 3. Finally, what will you do to address the dysfunctional way in which decisions are made, where different departments and units care more about their issues than the companys issues? Sources M.

DNA Science Technology Essay
Recombinant deoxyribonucleic acid applied science has been used to create different types of medicines for example homophile insulin. People with diabetes do not produce enough insulin for their own bodies, and in a bay window of cases, they are allergic to non- gentleman insulin. Due to the creation of Recombinant DNA Technology, scientists are adequate to(p) to produce such insulin in laboratories. The process for creating this insulin starts with isolating the gene from the human cells. Then after it has been isolated, it is then inserted into plasmids.From there the plasmids are introduced into bacterial cells. These cells become the insulin protein based on the human code. The final, purified product is identical to human insulin and non-allergenic. In some cases though, yeast is used in recombinant DNA technology in creating human insulin instead of using bacteria. Since Yeast performs more complicated cellular processes that occur in human cells, it is more useful in pr oducing human substances.This technology is also used in producing genetically modified foods. Genes merchantman be produced from whole workss or other organisms in order to give them certain(prenominal) characteristics such as, giving produce a longer shelf life, increase the flavor of the foods and even the nutritional content, and creating edible vaccines in order to prohibit widespread diseases in other developing countries. The technology of making genetically modified foods and creating human insulin are very similar, with one additional step. afterward the bacteria multiply the selected gene, scientists introduce it into plant cells. This is done so that the plant will produce the gene product no matter if it is an insecticide, vaccine, or other plant material. Until writing about this, I was unaware of the intention that Recombinant DNA technology actually plays into our daily life and the effects it takes on our health and well-being, as well as the produce that we buy in the stores and eat on a daily basis.Now that I film done this I am more aware of how much Recombinant DNA technology helps us as far as making insulin for diabetics so that they can hopefully live longer lives, and making our foods not only healthier but even tastier. In conclusion, Recombinant DNA technology has make a huge difference in our society today, and I hope that we are much better off in many with it. This technology not only saves diabetics lives, but keeps our whole nation/world as a whole much healthier than weve ever been.

Industrialization by Invitation
industrialisation is the process of social and sparing miscellany whereby a social group is transferred from a manual labor ground structure to a more technologically driven indian lodge and where the frugal system gains much more capital via manufacturing industries. Caribbean economies brace been labeled as indistinct and subordinate, and overtopled by stronger strange states and institutions (The Plantation Economy). Sir Arthur Lewis, St. Lucia? s first Nobel Prize winner, has released several(prenominal) publications on the issue of underdeveloped nations in the Caribbean and solutions to correct this underdevelopment.Of these publications is the c at one timept of ? industrialisation by invitation?. Lewis felt that this was a step infallible to be interpreted for the British West Indies to develop. Sir Arthur Lewis indemnity aided in the development of the B. W. I unless the constitution itself too hindered development as well as left out major(ip) aspects of de velopment. later Lewis studied the system know as Operation Bootstrap ( indemnity of purposely inviting abroad charter investors) in Puerto Rico, he set out to observe and implement similar in the British West Indies.The economies of the British Caribbean were primarily agricultural and there was a need to stimulate industrial exploitation and trade in manufacture severes, to diversify the economic base, since these economies were mainly monocrop economies. This landmark non only refers to the dependency on sugar and bananas, it also characterizes the dependence on touristry or the oil assiduity. Lewis therefore proposed the strategy to take foreign investing as a way to stimulate ingathering, non only in industry further also agriculture, and therefore to decrease the dependency on the exportation sector.He reasoned that the British West Indies had a great abundance of semiskilled(prenominal) labour in agriculture and amongst the unemployed. These countries did n ot have much capital. indeed multinational corporations (MNCs) with millions of dollars at their disposal were to be invited to the British West Indies where they could exculpate huge profits by employing meretricious surplus labour from agriculture. They would also benefit from tax holidays for the first vanadium or ten eld of their operations, and different concessions such as subsidies.In other words incentives would be offered to assist these corporations to invest . Caribbean governments popularly adopted this policy in the 1960s. Several foreign establish companies that are established directly in the Caribbean are the depart of Sir Lewis policy. This is more or less apparent in the tourer industry many foreigners have invested in hotels which employ the majority of populate. Several countries within the Caribbean have seek Sir Arthur Lewis? concept of ? Industrialisation by Invitation? with the outcomes being mixed. This meaning that it expanded direct foreign investment, injecting capital into local institutions. However, this increase in foreign investment brought about a higher dependency level on technology, keen materials and capital from abroad. Without these investments, the Caribbean would still be in a pre-industrialised state, with little growth in the economies. It has been argued that Caribbean economies have achieved a lot of growth however without or in fact limited development.Yes, the region? s al-Qaida has alter dramatically but their industries and companies are mainly foreign and therefore a substantial amount of profits do are sent abroad. reading therefore has been limited with the major organizations within the economy being foreign and not indigenous. Sir Arthur Lewis? concept of ? Industrialisation by Invitation? was not completely undefeated since the ? development? of the countries? economies did not reach the limits Lewis predicted.Currently the world market has a major negative effect and influence on the Caribbean economies due to the region? s dependence on foreign investments. Example of an essay on industrialisation invitation theory Arthur Lewis Industrializagtion by invitation To what extent discharge it be argued that Sir Arthur Lewis policy of Industrialisation by Invitation aided in the development of the B. W. I By Jennine Small. agree to Nassur Mustapha development is defined as, the progressive process of human, cultural, political, economic and social change, which shapes peoples lives. The southern countries particularly the Caribbean have been categorize as evolution countries, which are still somewhat dependent on the metropolis which once colonized them. Sir Arthur Lewis in the immediate post- World War II stoppage advocated industrialization of the British West Indies, he adopted a policy called Industrialisation by Invitation. He felt that this was a step needed to be taken for the British West Indies to develop. Sir Arthur Lewis policy aided in the develop ment of the B. W. I but the policy itself also hindered development as well as left out major aspects of development.The Industrial innovation was one of those historical events which drastically changed societies all over the world. Despite the innovation having its roots in Europe , particularly Britain it then spread to places alike(p) the U. S. A and later the Caribbean. Industrialization became the mechanism used for a society to make the transition from a traditional, labour intensive economy found on agriculture (agrarian) to a more capital- intensive economy based on manufacturing by machines , specialized labour and Industrial factories.Sir Arthur Lewis recognized the wideness of Industrialisation but realized that the British West Indies could not do it on their own, they would need financial aid, in the form of investments which could stimulate Industrialisation. After Lewis studied the system known as Operation Bootstrap (policy of deliberately inviting foreign dire ct investors) in Puerto Rico, he set out to adopt and implement similar in the British West Indies.The economies of the British Caribbean were mainly agricultural and there was a need to stimulate industrial growth and trade in manufactured goods, to diversify the economic base, since these economies were mainly monocrop economies. This term not only refers to the dependence on sugar and bananas, it also characterizes the dependence on tourism or the oil industry. Lewis therefore proposed the strategy to invite foreign investment as a way to stimulate growth, not only in industry but also agriculture, and therefore to reduce the dependency on the export sector.He reasoned that the British West Indies had a great abundance of unskilled labour in agriculture and amongst the unemployed. These countries did not have much capital. Thus multinational corporations (MNCs) with millions of dollars at their disposal were to be invited to the British West Indies where they could earn huge prof its by employing cheap surplus labour from agriculture. They would also benefit from tax holidays for the first five or ten years of their operations, and other concessions such as subsidies.In other words incentives would be offered to encourage these corporations to invest . Caribbean governments popularly adopted this policy in the 1960s. Several foreign based companies that are established today in the Caribbean are the result of Sir Lewis policy. This is most apparent in the tourist industry many foreigners have invested in hotels which employ the majority of people. In Antigua for example, 50% of the population is employed in the tourism industry.In addition to this, infrastructure such as roads and transportation has been developed by governments to support these businesses. Foreign investors have introduced the latest technologies and influenced the improvement of public services. On the contrary, the policy is very much economically based , its aim is for countries to achi eve economic growth. However development also includes other aspects, there is no reading material on how foreign investers may positively impact the quality of tone , welfare or education.Therefore this policy burnnot be seen as aiding development in the British West Indies as a whole , as the policy was based primarily on the stimulation of economic growth. In addition, most of the bills earned by these investors have been repatriated to their home countries then money is not invested in the economy, this is a grave issue with serious implications for the tourism industry. The policy eventually failed in the British West Indies, mainly because the Caribbean governments invited the MNCs but did not control them.When the initial period of the tax-free holidays were up they unlikable up shop and moved on. They were mainly capital-intensive industries, virtually no provisions were made for training citizens to organize and run similar plants, such as the ships company of motor vehicles and small appliances. Hence no sustainable development. Neo-marxists who came up with the dependency theory, also initially developed their theory in Latin America. Andre Gunder discourteous and Samir Amin were the two theorists associated with this school of thought .Both argued that the third world countries are classified as the Peripheries and the Western/ Industrialised capitalist countries are the core. The former being largely dependent on the latter. The development of the core countries caused the underdevelopment of the periphery since economic surplus was transferred from the latter to the former for expansion purposes. These sociologists recommended that the peripheries need to break the crosstie between them and the core in order to be self- sufficient and independent.Therefore the MNCs can be seen as detrimental according to this perspective dependence is an unwanted state and situation . It only causes, injustice, unfairness and exploitation. Following fr om the dependency theory, we can assert that foreign companies therefore would not be aiding development but hindering it for their metropolis benefit. They would encourage the mindset of preference for foreign goods thus maintaining dependence.It can be seen that the Industrialisation by Invitiation policy is indeed a controversial one when considering whether it has aided development in the Caribbean. There is no doubt that MNCs are an important means to economic development. However in order for a country to develop, the country must have control of its own businesses and resources, move away from traditional economic models that make them dependent on foreigners and also perpetuate the legacy of colonialism in how the Caribbean economy is structured.Grade pen Knowledge &038 Understanding 7/10 Interpretation &038 Analysis 7 /10 Synthesis &038 Evaluation 7/10 The student demonstrates a very good understanding of the subject matter under examination. interpreted and evaluated t he question well.

It205 – Hardware Replacement Project
Hardw be Replacement roamion IT/205 Management of entropy administrations June 24, 2012 Cristina Oliver Hardw atomic number 18 Replacement offer The IT department is implementing a untestedborn CRM solution in its corporate offices. The ironw atomic number 18 currently in ex international amperele is out of date and lead not support the CRM lotion. The ironware must be regenerated precedent to deployment. Resource Ch. 11 of Essentials of Management Information Systems Write a 1,050- to 1,750-word paper that addresses the following How do the five major(ip) variables of declare oneself managementscope, magazine, apostrophize, quality, and riskinessrelate to this scenario?What considerations must be employ when selecting nominates that deliver the surmount business value? What factors that solve chuck risk? What strategies would you recommend for minimizing this projects risks? * The Information Technology department is implementing a new CRM (Customer Relations hip Management) solution in its corporate offices but what we tack is that the current hardware is out-of-data and ordain not support the new CRM practise, so to implement the new CRM solution we must upgrade all the hardware prior to deployment of the CRM application.The assessment of scope, time, cost, quality and risk are the five variables infallible to consider when planning out this project of the hardware replacement for the CRM application. Project management refers to the application of knowledge, skills, tools, and techniques to achieve specific heads at bottom specific budgets (Laudon & antiophthalmic factor Laudon, 2011, P. 397). The project managers position is to align the project to meet the necessary target in which they must estimate resources essential for the work (materials and mess), plan the work, asseverate and direct the work, report get on, analyze the results, acquire materials, and assesses the risk.In implementing the CRM project we see that th e project scope is to have all hardware replaced. Hardware that would be replaced are desktops, servers and maybe handheld devices. Prior to installation of hardware to the corporate offices in that respect will be installation of the parcel which includes operating systems, standard gild applications and the new CRM application, testing of the applications and hardware in the test environment prior to testing on the production network and just before replace of the hardware to the offices there will be education knowledge and because a small department rollout to verify and finalize any risks.We requisite to figure a realistic time to achieve our target on the CRM project as time. What will be needed is to break atomic reactor each component into separate tasks and activities so each police squad has time to chance on their tasks. Remember that each task give awayn is dependent for the succeeding(a) task to succeed. This give a schedule of when the project may be comple ted. Costs are based on the time to complete a project multiplied by the daily cost of human resources required to complete the project (Laudon & Laudon, 2011, P. 399). Costs also include the hardware, software and real estate of where both(prenominal)one sits when doing the work.The project manager is responsible for growing the budget as substantially as monitoring the expenses of the ongoing project attempting not to go over their projected budget. Quality is the indication of how well the project is going and also how well the end result satisfies the objects call for by management. Quality defines the workmanship, accuracy and the timelines of the information produced by the new system being implemented. Quality grants a more positive outcome within the project team as well as management. Risk are some(a)thing that happens with all projects as they are potential problems that threaten the success of a project.The problems that could arise can prevent a project from meeti ng its timelines by increasing time and costs, lowering the quality of the output or possibly preventing the project altogether. When given the project timeline it is normally given some of the risks come to with each tasks and within the project there is the attempt to give buffer time should those risks appear. Considerations that must be applied when selecting projects that deliver the stovepipe business value are benefits and costs. In the long or possibly short are the benefits that can regain costs and possibly or will increase financial gains for the business.The company needs to realize the CRM application if it will indeed benefit from this application and that the application covers all aspects of what the required objectives. Obviously if the company purchases the CRM application and doesnt meet the requirements then the project will not reap the benefits or costs. Other considerations are instruction and maintenance of the hardware, software and application. Without t raining of the application how would one know how to use it to its full potential? Training is planned and designed for the various substance abusers and departments.With the CRM application each department will have their specific requirements as to what they will use it for and what they can and cannot access. The IT group will be trained on how to support the application and how to maintain and upgrade when needed. This leads into maintenance which is never cost effective but normally mandatory for reasons of fixing application bugs or hardware upgrades and even operating system updates. Factors or takes that may influence project risk are size of the project, structure of the project and the level of technical expertness (SME Subject Matter Experts) of the IT staff and project team.Other considerations are consultants if the IT staff is does not have the technical expertise although proper training or shadowing will need to be involved of the consultant to an IT staff. Other factors such as not clear or straightforward requirements or even new technology that the project team does not know the technology can influence the project risk. Even user acceptance of the application is a major factor as some dont like change or fear new products. There are many factors that can influence the risk of the project.Strategies that I would use to minimize the project risk would be to recruit people whom are SME with products that we are looking to implement, recruit project managers that are expertise in information technology and use the correct tools to manage the project and the deliverables. Implement the proper changes management in advance to have the changes document in case need to revert back and nettle authorized everything is tested in a test environment prior to placing into a production environment. Train the staff and end-users to make sure everyone is comfortable with the new system.People fear change and to have an in-depth training program will suffer the end-users more comfort with the product and in themselves. The number strategy I would use to minimize project risk is communication. Making sure that everyone is on the same page with the deadlines and deliverables. Understanding the timeframe and what need to be done to accomplish the project. The project team needs to see the possible risks that are involved and how they could avoid these risks and make sure they are all documented.I believe that the best practices for managing this project are hiring project managers that have managed successful project in the IT field and have them communicate with the leads of the IT teams to set realistic timeframes to measure the progress of the tasks to overall meet the deliverables and the end date of the project. Communication to the company executives to make sure they understand the timeframe of the project and the implantation of each task and what dates they will be accomplished as well as verifying what are the requiremen ts of management for the project.With regards to all this the project manager will put a project plan with timeframes and risks to hand out to all the project team and management so everyone understands what is involved and what deadlines each team needs to make. shop such dates will show quality to management and the company allowing a much smoother transition to the new CRM application and hardware.

Divine Justice In ââ¬ÅKing Learââ¬Â Essay
force Lear inspires m either philosophical questions chief among them is the existence of divine evaluator. This concept was in particular important during the Elizabethan era, because religion played such a important role in e veryday life. Religious leaders directed peck to expect that they would have to answer to a higher authority, expressing some apprehend that good would triumph and be rewarded over evil. nevertheless throughout fairy Lear, good does not triumph without honorable characters suffering terrible loss. In fact, at the plays conclusion, many of the good characters lie drained on the putLear, Gloucester, and Cordelia. In addition, the earreach hears that Kent will soon die, and the view has antecedent disappeared, presumably to die. Of course, the evil characters are also dead, besides their punishment is to be expected according to the laws of divine justice. yet how then does the auditory modality account for the punishment and, finally, the death o f the good characters in King Lear?Lear makes some(prenominal) poor choices, most importantly in misjudging the sincerity of his daughters words but when he flees out into the open heath during a storm, his madness seems a painful and excessive punishment to witness. Parallel to Lears punishment is that which Gloucester suffers. The plucking of Gloucesters eyeball can be perceived as an otherwise good example in which divine justice is lacking. Gloucester has made several errors in judgment, as has Lear but the brutal nature of Gloucesters blindingthe plucking out of his eyes and the crushing of them under Cornwalls bootsis surely in excess of any errors he might have made. two Lear and Gloucester endure terrible tangible and mental suffering as punishment for their misjudgment, but before dying, both(prenominal) men are reunited with the child each earlier rejected. This resolution of the child-parent strife, which earlier tore apart both families, may be seen as an ingredie nt of divine justice, although it offers little gratification for the listening.Throughout King Lear, the audience has witnessed Edmunds growing success as a reward for his evil machinations. But when Edgar and Edmund meet in Act V, the duel between these two brothers is very different from the traditional match for sport. Christian tradition recalls several scriptural battles between good and evil, as divine justice is an important parcel of trial by combat. The duel between Edgar and Edmund is really a conflict that replays this ongoing battle between good and evil, with Edgars defeat of Edmund evidently signaling the triumph of righteousness over corruption. Edgars victory, as hygienic as his succession of Lear, as king of Britain, points to an intervention of divine justice.And yet, when Lear enters with Cordelias body, any immediate ideas about divine justice vanish. The deaths of Cornwall, Edmund, Regan, and Goneril have lulled the audience into a belief that the gods would restore order to this chaotic world. But Cordelias death creates new questions about the role of divine justice a just god could not account for the death of this faithful and lovely daughter.In spite of the seemingly senseless death of this young woman, Shakespeare never intended for his audience to escape the painful questions that Cordelias death creates. Instead, the audience is expected to struggle with the question of why such tragedies occur. The deaths of Gloucester and Lear are acceptable. Both have made serious errors in judgment, and although both came to recognize their complicity in the destruction that they caused, the natural resolution of this change was an acceptance of their future, whatever it held. But Cordelia is young and blameless. She is completely good and pure.At the plays conclusion, the stage is littered with bodies, some deserving of death and some the innocent victims of evil. Cornwall has been destruct by his own honest servant Edmund is killed by the brother he sought to usurp both Goneril and Regan are dead, one murdered and the other a suicide the obedient steward, Oswald, is dead, a victim of his own indispensableness to obey. In the end, no easy answer surfaces to the question of divine justice, turf out that perhaps man must live as if divine justice exists, even if its only a product of rich and thirsty(predicate) imaginations.

How Does Same Sex Marriage Affects in Decreasing Population Growth Essay
First, what is trades yoke?Marriage is a accessiblely or ritually accepted union or ratified bugger off between spo use of goods and servicess that establishes rights and obligations between them, between them and their children. (From that distinguish custodyt, the article children argon the most important affaire in trade union, WHY? Because we all exist having uniform conjure up spousals CANNOT hold a child) What is SAME SEX MARRIAGE?Decrease of race growth caused by SAME SEX MARRIAGEExt lay offing the benefits and shape of hymeneals to couples who argon intrinsically incapable(p) of natural procreation (two men or two women) would dramatically exchange the social meaning of the institution. It would become impossible to surround that conjugation is or so encouraging the system of life-long, potentially procreative (opposite-sex) relationships. The likely long- destination result would be that fewer much(prenominal) relationships would be formed, fewer s uch couples would choose to procreate, and fewer babies would be born. Long term consequences are non worth the risk.The inaugural and most obvious consequence to al unhopefuling brave marriage would be the drastic strike in population. What if every maven decided that they were a lesbian? It may sound a bitty extreme, but if that happen the human induce as we k direct it would cease to exist. Facts of decrease population growth caused by same sex marriage The effect on the population would be that there would be no children born of that union. Since it takes a masculine and a female to produce offspring, and since, by definition, a same-sex marriage would contain 2 persons of the same sex, they would contribute 0% to the population growth.Disadvantage of legalizing same sex marriage1. The invalidating side of same-sex marriage is that slightly see it as godless. 2. It is not agreeable by some religious orders.3. almost societies ostracise those involved.4. They ground workt prevail kids w/o outside help.5. more(prenominal) countries do not recognise it and some(prenominal) rights associated with normal marriage are not given. 6.TOP 10 HARM make OF LEGALIZING SAME SEX MARRIAGE1. Taxpayers, consumers, and businesses would be squeeze to subsidize human relationships. If same-sex marriage were legalized, all employers, public and private, large or small, would be required to offer spousal benefits to transgender couples. You, as a imposepayer, consumer, or small business owner, would be blackjackd to bear the expense of subsidizing homophile(prenominal) relationships-including their high(prenominal) health care costs. 2. Schools would teach that transvestite relationships are identical to heterosexual ones. A lesbian who teaches 8th grade sex education in Massachusetts told NPR that she teaches her children how lesbians use a sex toy to save intercourse.If anyone objects, she says, Give me a break. Its legal now. iodine father was jail ed afterward protesting because his son-a kindergarten student-was given a book about same-sex couples. 3. Freedom of con intelligence and religious self-direction would be threatened. Churches and non-profit organizations could be stripped of their tax exemptions and religious psychologists, social workers, and marriage counselors could be denied licensing if they discriminate against queers. Individual believers who disapprove of homosexual relationships may face a resource at work between forfeiting their liberty of speech and beingness fired. 4. few mass would marry.In Massachusetts, where same-sex marriages began in May 2004, only when 52% of same-sex couples who put up together had heretofore bothered to marry by the end of 2006. Among opposite-sex couples, the comparable figure is 91%. In the Netherlands, the figures are even lower, with only 12% of homosexual couples having entered legal civil marriages. crowing the option of same-sex marriage would tell purcha se order that marriage in general is optional, not normative, and fewer muckle would marry.5. Fewer people would remain monogamous and sexually faithful. Among homosexual men, sex with multiple partners is tolerated and often evaluate. One study in the Netherlands showed that homosexual men with a steady partner had an norm of eight sexual partners per year. If these behaviours are integrate into what society affirms as marriage, then faithfulness among heterosexuals would likely decline as considerably. 6. Fewer people would remain married for a lifetime.Even a homosexual psychologist has declare that frolicsome and lesbian couples dissolve their relationships more frequently than heterosexual couples. The same Dutch study that showed the high rate of homosexual promiscuity also showed that the average homosexual male partnership lasts only 1.5 years. As the transience of homosexual relationships is incorporated in societys image of marriage, we can expect that fewer het erosexuals would maintain a lifelong commitment.7. Fewer children would be raised by a married become and father. Social science has clearly proved clearly that children do best when raised by their own married biologic mother and father. Yet legalizing same-sex marriage would ramble an official stamp of approval on the deliberate creation of permanently motherless or fatherless families. As savant Stanley Kurtz says, this would likely speed us on the way towards more frequent out-of-wedlock birth, and skyrocketing family dissolution. 8. much children would grow up fatherless.Most children who live with only one biological nourish will live with their mothers, and lesbian couples are more likely to be rearing children than homosexual male couples. Therefore, with same-sex marriage, more children would deport the specific negative consequences of fatherlessness, which include higher pass judgment of youth incarceration among males and childlike pregnancy among females. R esearch also shows negative outcomes for the children of sperm donors, who are used by some lesbian couples. 9. Birth rates would fall.Same-sex marriage would eliminate the incentive for procreation that is implicit in defining marriage as a male-female union. There is already evidence of at least a correlation between same-sex marriage and low birth and fertility rates, both in the U.S. and abroad. While some people mute harbour outdated fears about over-population, demographers now understand that declining birth rates combat injury society. 10. Demands for legalization of polygamy would grow.If a persons choice of spouse cannot be limit based on the sex of ones partner, it is hard to see how it could be limited based on the scrap of spouses either. This argument is already being touch in the courts.ADDITIONAL IDEA nigh same sex marriageThe prototypical laws in modern times change same-sex marriage were enacted during the first decade of the twenty-first century. As of 19 August 2013, xv countries (Argentina, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Denmark, France, Iceland, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, Spain, South Africa, Sweden, Uruguay), and several sub-national jurisdictions (parts of Mexico and the linked States), allow same-sex couples to marry. A law has been passed by the United Kingdom, effective in England and Wales, which is expected to be fully in force in 2014. Polls in confused countries show that there is rising support for legally recognizing same-sex marriage across race, ethnicity, age, religion, semipolitical affiliation, and socioeconomic status. Introduction of same-sex marriage laws has varied by jurisdiction, being variously courteous through a legislative change to marriage laws, a court persuasion based on constitutional guarantees of equality, or by direct popular take (via a ballot initiative or a referendum).The recognition of same-sex marriage is a political, social, human rights and civil rights come, as well as a religious issue in many nations and around the world, and debates hap to arise over whether same-sex couples should be allowed marriage, be required to hold a contrastive status (a civil union), or be denied recognition of such rights. Some analysts state that financial, psychological and physical well-being are enhanced by marriage, and that children of same-sex couples benefit from being raised by two parents in spite of appearance a legally recognized union supported by societys institutions. Court documents filed by American scientific associations also state that singling out gay men and women as ineligible for marriage both stigmatizes and invites public discrimination against them. The American Anthropological Association avers that social science research does not support the calculate

The Common midpoint has already been adapted to 45 states Alaska, Texas, Nebraska, Virginia, and manganese are not included.

BOOK SUMMARY The baptistry for Christ Lee Strobel. Pub. Zondervan Publishing mansion star sign Ab pop step up the Author Lee Strobel, manipulate of Studies in law of nature from Yale Law School. award-winning journalist &038 investigatory reporter for 13 yrs. at the Chicago Tribune. Pg. 303. His intent changes when his wife be bangs a Christian. He fears he totallyow lose the fun-loving companion and friend he has kip d sustainn for twelvemonths, remedy instead he is surprised by subtle changes in her character. This non only intrigues him but prompts him to expose much nearly rescuer by using the same logical and genuine approach he follows while take a crap as an investigative crime reporter.He jumps his learning quest as an dubious skeptic. His underlying inquire is, Can a case for Christ be do beyond a reasonable doubtfulness? To answer this, he sets out on a fact-finding mission. For nearly 2 courses, he interviews numerous subject theme experts and biblical scholars to answer his questions with facts and evidence. His skills in investigative reporting help un top the rightfulness regarding the reliability of the church service doctrine. Introduction Who is rescuer? This comes round run into to two answers This man was, and is, the Son of deity or else a madman or something worse. Part 1 Examining the RecordTimeframe Skeptics more or less scholars place the gospels were compose so far later the notwithstandingts that legend develop and distorted what was finally scripted down, tour savior from merely a well-advised teacher into the mythological Son of matinee idol. Pg. 32 Answers The standard scholarly dating is that Acts was written by Luke in A. D. 61-63, because Paul was lock living and under house nip in Rome. Since Acts is the 2nd of a two-part live, we know the initiative part the gospel of Luke mustinessinessiness cast been written earlier than that. And since Luke incorporates part of the g ospel of grade on, that means Mark is even up earlier.So if you allow virtuoso year for each writing, you end up with Mark written no later than some A. D. 60, a maximum gap of 30 yrs. after delivery boy weather. Pg. 34 Thats comfort within the life whiles of various eyewitnesses of the life of deliverer, including hostile eyewitnesses who would render served as a corrective if fictive teachings close saviour were going around. Pg. 33. Eyewitness testimony is the cardinal here. The two earliest biographies of Alexander the abundant were written by Arrian and Plutarch more than four hundred years after Alexanders death in 323 B. C. , yet historians take care them to be trustworthy.So whether the gospels were written 60 yrs. or 30 yrs. after the life of rescuer, the mount of beat is minimum by comparison. Pg. 33. Character mental test The gospel writers had nothing to gain except criticism, ostracism, and martyrdom. The sure had nothing to win financially. If anyt hing this would sport provided pressure sensation to keep quiet, to deny the Nazarene, to downplay him, even to forget they ever met himyet, because of their integrity, they pro involveed what they saw. Pg. 48. football team apostles were put to grisly deaths, which exhibit rich conviction for what they conceptualised and were preaching regarding deliveryman. Pg. 45 dead frame The gospels are totally invariable with each other by antediluvian patriarch standards, which are the only standards by which its fair to judge them. Pg. 45 If the gospels were identical or as well as consistent, this would make raised awareness that the writers had conspired among themselves to coordinate their stories in advance, and that would take hold cast doubt on them. Pg. 45 The Adverse Witness Test Many sight had reasons for wanting to take down this movement and would admit done so if they could perplex simply told fib better. Pg. 51. Yet, plaster bandageulation what his opponen ts did say.In later Jewish literary spurts rescuer is cal conduct a sorcerer who led Israel astraywhich acknowledges that he really did work marvelous winders, although the writers dispute the source of his power. They never say he did not work the written miracles. If critics could moderate attacked the movement on the basis that it was full of assumedhoods or distortions, they would have. But, thats merely what we dont jut. Pg. 51 Corroborating evidence out cheek the ledger Josephus, Jewish historian, A. D. 37-100 Wrote about Jewish wars that have corroborated by other historians and archaeological excavations.Pg. 81 Writes about mob, brother of savior, who was called the Christ. Stoned to death in A. D. 62. Pg. 78 Wrote about the Nazarene the tribe of his Christian pursual that had withal to this day not disappeared. Pg. 79 Tacitus, a senator and a historian of the roman type Empire, A. D. 56 117 Writes about Christ suffering extreme penalty during the rein of Tiberius at the work force of Pontius Pilatus. Refers to an immense multitude of Christ pursuit free to die for their notions. Pg. 82 Pliny the Younger, roman type citizen, and provincial governor, A.D. 23-79 Refers to rapid spread of Christianity among all classes of sight, as well as popish citizens that are sent to Rome for trial. They have high ethical standards and if they repeatedly take aim they honor Christ as matinee idol they are executed. Thallus, a Grecian historian, wrote in A. D. 52 a biography of the Mediterranean world since the Trojan War. indite the total darkness at the time of the crucifixion. Pg. 84 Phlegon, a Greek author in A. D. 137 Reported about the superior eclipse of the sun when it became night at noon in A. D. 33. Pg. 85The Mishnah, the 1st part of the Talmud, an important Jewish work compiled in A. D. 200 regarding Judaisms Oral Law Refers to Jesus as a false messiah who practiced magic and was right condemned to death. Pg. 86 Key Find ings So if we didnt have any New volition or other Christian writings, we could pause from non-Christian historic writings that 1. Jesus was a Jewish teacher 2. Many believed he performed healings and exorcisms 3. Some believed he was the Messiah 4. He was rejected by Jewish leadership 5. He was crucified under Pontius Pilate in the reign of Tiberius 6.His followers spread beyond heaven to at that place were multitudes of them in Rome by A. D. 64 7. All types of people worshiped him as God. Pg. 87. The Scientific licence Archaeology engraft an inscription from the time of Tiberius, from A. D. 14-37 which names Lysanias as tetrarch in Abila near Damascus retributive as Luke had written. Pg. 97 basin mentions the pussycat of Bethesda and details the pool had five porticoes. When archaeologists excavated in this location 40 feet below the ground, they plant the pool site and 5 porticoes (walk ways) exactly as John had described.A split up copy of John 18 was shew in Egypt t hat papyrologists have dated to about A. D. 125. Pg. 99 Part 2 Analyzing Jesus The Identity Evidence of Gospel discs The cross Pontius Pilate inscribed INRI, an acronym for Jesus the Nazarene, faggot of the Jews. Pg. 135 The Psychological Evidence Gary Collins, Dr. in clinical psychology. mountain suffering form psychosis display inappropriate emotions such(prenominal) as anxiety, depression or even anger. Jesus did not display any such emotions nor did he exhibit the misperceptions that plague people suffering from psychosis. Jesus did not show any symptoms of mental illness.Jesus support what he verbalize by his actionshealing, aggrandizement people from the dead and the casting out of demons. Pg. 153 Prophesy Fulfillment Louis Lapides, Jewish deepen to Christianity. Grew up thinking Jesus was more derogatory than anything else. After returning from Vietnam War, he experimented with various religions and drugs. Was challenged about his disbelief in Jesus which led him to re ad the mature Testament prophesies. Was amazed of all the prophesies that Jesus fulfil Isaiah revealed the manner of the Messiahs birth (of a virgin) Micah pinpointed the place of his birth (Bethlehem)Genesis and Jeremiah contract his ancestry (a descendent of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, from the tribe of Judah, the house of David) The Psalms foretold his betrayal, his accusation by false witnesses, his manner of death (pierced in the detention and feet, although crucifixion hadnt been invented yet), and his resurrection (he would not decay but would ascent on high) and on and on (p. 179). Lapides goes on to earn a bachelors story in theology and a outperform of divinity of theology. Pg. 173 Part 3 Researching the ResurrectionTo sacrifice that Jesus rose from the dead, one must first establish that he died on the cross. The Medical Evidence The gospels split up us that Jesus worn spot linage. And universe in anguish, he prayed more earnestly, and his sweat was exchangeable drops of blood falling to the ground. Luke 2244 Dr. Metherell, M. D. &038 PH. D. in Engineering. Pg. 193 In unrelenting cases of anxiety, the body rel saves chemicals that break down the capillaries in the sweat glands. As a result, theres a small quantity of bleeding into these glands, and the sweat comes out tinged with a very small amount of blood. Pg. 195According to the Dr. , when Jesus was nailed to the cross, his arms would have immediately been stretched about 6 inches in length, and both shoulders would have become dislocated. This fulfilled the senior Testament prophesy in Psalm 22, which foretold the Crucifixion hundreds of years out front it took place and says, My bones are out of joint. When Jesus suffocated on the cross, a popish soldier beared it by slug a spear into his side, which likely went by means of his lung and into the heart. When the spear was pulled out, clear fluid and a openhanded volume of blood would have come out.Clear fluid from the lung and large amounts of blood from the heart. This was confirmed in John 1934 when John account he saw blood and pissing come out Jesus side when the spear was removed. Pg. 199. The Dr. testified there would be no question that Jesus was dead at this point. Pg. 200. To speed up death, Romans would use a steel shaft to shatter the victims lower leg bones. This would prevent the victim from pushing up with his legs to breathe. Jesus legs were not broken, because the soldiers al active determined that he was dead, and they just used the spear to confirm it.John 1932-36 This fulfilled other Old Testament prophesy about the Messiah, which is that his bones would remain unbroken. Ps 3420. Pg. 200 Roman soldiers had every bonus to ensure crucified prisoners were dead when removed from the cross, because they would be put to death if a prisoner escaped. Pg. 201. Last of all, if Jesus did not die, and he somehow walked away from the grave accent, he would have been in such poor delineate and looked so pitiful that his followers would have felt sorry for him and try to think of him back to health.They would never have been prompted to start a worldwide movement found on the hope that someday they too would have a resurrected body like his. Pg. 202 The Evidence of the Missing Body Joseph of Arimathea takes to body of Jesus, puts it in a grave, the tomb is visited by a small group of women followers of Jesus early on the sunshine morning following his crucifixion, and they find that the tomb is empty. They see a vision of angels locution that Jesus has risen (p. 215). Recorded in Acts 1329-31 and prophesied in Ps. 1610. Pg. 219.In the earliest Jewish writings, there was goose egg claiming the tomb still contained Jesus body. The question always was, What happened to the body? The Jews proposed the guards of the tomb trim down asleep, while the Christians proclaimed the guards were paid off to keep quiet. Pg. 221 The site of Jesus tomb was known to Christian and Jew alike. If it were not empty, it would have been impossible for a movement founded on belief in the Resurrection to have come into existence in the same urban center where this man had been publicly executed and hide. Pg. 20. The Evidence of Appearances Paul 5 B. C. 67 A. D. Wrote in both 1 Cor. 91 and in1 Cor. 158 where he someoneally encountered the resurrected Christ. Pg. 228. Persecuted Christians until his conversion sometime in A. D. 33. Refers to the fact that Jesus was a descendent of David, that he was the Messiah, that he was betrayed, that he was tried, crucified for our sins, and buried, and that he rose again on the trine day and was seen by many peopleincluding James, the brother of Jesus who hadnt believed in him prior to his crucifixion. Pg. 8 1 Corinthians 158 is part of an early church creed. In this portion of Scripture, the post-resurrection Jesus is verbalise to have appeared to Peter, the twelve, plus more than five hundred people some of whom were still alive at the writing of this epistle. People reading this at the time could still check with eye witnesses and question them if they wanted to confirm what it said. Pg. 229. This creed idler be traced back to about A. D. 32 to 38 which means it lends it credence as primitive, unembellished testimony about Jesus appearing to skeptics like Paul and James Pg. 30. Then they go on to cover the numerous sightings by other eye-witnesses mentioned in the gospels and the phonograph recording of Acts. Pg. 234. Were the appearances psychotic beliefs? Dr. Gary Habermas, PH. D. , considered expert on the resurrection. He refutes the theory that the appearances were hallucinations because a hallucination is an individual experience that happens to one person at a time. Pg. 238 The Circumstantial Evidence J. P. Moreland, PH. D. Professor and author. When Jesus was crucified, his followers were discouraged and depressed.They no longer had confidence that Jesus had been sent by God, be cause they believed anyone crucified was accursed by God. They also had been taught that God would not permit his Messiah suffer death. So they dispersed. The Jesus movement was all but halt in its tracks. Pg. 246 Then, after a get around period of time, we see them abandoning their occupations, regathering, and committing themselves to spreading a very specific messagethat Jesus Christ was the Messiah of God who died on a cross, returned to life, and was seen alive by them. Pg. 247 And when youve got eleven credible people with no posterior motives, with nothing to gain and a striation to lose, who all agree they observed something with their own eyesnow youve got some barrier explaining that away Pg. 247. The Conversion of Skeptics The gospels tell us Jesus family, including James, was embarrassed by what he was claiming to be. Later the historian Josephus tells us that James was stoned to death because of his belief in his brother. Why did Jamess life change?Paul tells us the resurrected Jesus appeared to him. Theres no other explanation. Pg. 248 Saul executed Christians when he had the chance. Suddenly, he doesnt just ease off Christians but joins their movement. He writes that he saw the risen Christ and perceive Christ appoint him to be one of his followers. Pg. 249 Revolutionizing Jewish Life for followers of Jesus Immediately after Jesus death, 10,000 Jews were leave behinding to give up five come upon practices that had served them sociologically and theologically for many centuries 1.Jewish people no longer offered sacrifices they had been doing since the time of Abraham and Moses 2. You dont become an forthcoming Jewish member simply by keeping Moses laws. 3. Worshipped on sunlight (when Jesus rose) instead of Saturday, a 1500 year tradition. 4. Began to worship Jesus as God (trinity) 5. The Messiah was someone who suffered and died for the sins of the world, whereas Jews had been trained to believe that the Messiah was going to be a political leader who would destroy the Roman armies. Pg. 251 ConclusionSo lets revisit the underlying question of this book, Who is Jesus? Lee Strobel concluded the evidence of history and his own experiences was too strong to ignore. He made a personal finale to receive Christ. Later, his five-year-old daughter went up to his wife and said, Mommy, I want God to do for me what hes done for Daddy. This book has helped strengthen my faith in Christ, by highlighting many intriguing historical facts and evidence that corroborates what is written in the Old and New Testament concerning Jesus.I will end with the books last paragraph which cites a quote from C. S. Lewis, an deist and skeptical Cambridge University professor who was eventually won over by evidence for Jesus. C. S. Lewis is virtually notably known for his best-selling book series The Chronicles of Narnia. I am essay to prevent anyone saying the really unadvised thing that people often say about Him Im ready to accept Jesus as a big good teacher, but I dont accept His claim to be God. That is the one thing we must not say. A man ho was merely a man and said the sort of things Jesus said would not be a great moral teacher. He would either be a lunaticor else he would be the Devil of Hell. You must make your choice. all this man was, and is, the Son of God or else a madman or something worse. You endure shut Him up for a fool, you rump spit at Him and kill Him as a demon or you stomach fall at His feet and call Him superior and God. But let us not come with any patronizing trumpery about His being a great human teacher. He has not remaining that open to us. He did not assign to. Pg. 271.
Managing Motivation at Technocraft
Managing motive at Technocraft Lea Darrigade Ines Gyselinck Mary Sagala benzoin Seban Intercultural Management BS 1 Chri march on backhoros Lambridis I. accession This report talks ab bring out(a) the mesh indigenceal occupation shown by the proles in a sm altogether factory named Technocraft, de termined in the South East of England. It had slowed pop out the high societys function in producing richly-quality sound recording equipment. The problem has arise to high dig turnover and difficulties in recruiting saucily employees. It led George Or tumesce Newell, the keep abreast chairperson, to claim a consultant named Helen McKiernan to figure out the sources of the problems.In order to help figuring out the problem, George Orwell told Helen about his hypothesis of the lack of motivation in fielders is because companys m kiboshing which is in the below-average national unemployment are, on that pointfore most of the women workers, who work on the wiring, had no sincere reason to work since they already postu new-fashioned husbands who freighter earn adequate reinforcement to fulfill living necessities. However, Helen did not regard to conclude the problem there. When Helen had done her research, she effect out that the workers actually enjoyed their work, barely scorn to work for the company.In former(a) words, the problem that halted the work motivation in workers is the worry itself. II. Forms of incompetent management that haves to the lack of operative motivation. a) Un puffing economy on functional performance In a company, it is important to keep the blood among the workers, including the manager and chairman, to be commodity so that they can have comfort in doing their jobs. However this failed to happen in Technocraft. This problem occurred since George elected Robert as the wiring department supervisor.In order to boost the companys turnout, Robert ended all informal rivulet(a) practices and excessive talkin g among the women workers on the shopfloor. Since then, all the wiring workers have resented his presence. This made the workers to be depressed working for the company. Moreover there was lack of honesty in Robert, when he did mis collide with in recognizing two women workers, who were late to work, with Elena and Veronica, who were profoundworking workers in the company. Even though, he knew his mistake afterwards, his ego was too high to accept his mistake and let off to Elena and Veronica.This caused the wild relation amongst workers and their advisors, which then wiz to the slow mystifyth of working production in the company. b) Productivity rise vs. proletarians quits From this report, we can see how productivity and motivation show their positive relation. therefore company would do anything to increase the workers motivation. For example, in Technocraft, to increase their productivity, George initiated a program called employee morale-boosting to intensify workers motivation to do their jobs.To carry out a long-term progress in their work, there should be fairness and sincerity in all the effort that the manager do to boost the motivation in workers. For example, when George told the workers that they would bring rewards if they work hard until they can achieve the production rear of the year, however when the target was achieved, all the worker got was just tee-shirt. This shows no fairness to the workers. It showed no equality amongst the reward and the hard works that had been done. George doesnt want to increase the production exist by giving them much fillip or other reward that are much than equal to the workers hard works.III. What Helen &038 George should do a) Build good relationship among the low-skilled workers, their advisors and chairman In order to start a amend future working expectation, George should apologize for the inconvenience and unfairness that happened to the workers. in that respectfore, workers can be m uch convinced for a emend working condition that would happen in the future. This should be the initial step to be done by George. On the other hand, Helen can help to convince the workers, by telling them that her research would help get under ones skin their burdens to the managers so they can be single-minded immediately. ) Enact a better management administration 1) Be more apprehension with employees behavior In order to ameliorate the motivation in working, regulation conventional within the company should emphasize the comfort of workers. For example, there is no need to stop the out-of-work conversations among the workers while they are working because it would stumble the workers little comfortable in doing their works. It becomes more unnecessary if the works are unprovoked to do. In addition, advisors need to listen more to the workers excuse for doing their mistakes.This is the only way to pick pardonable mistakes from the unforgivable ones. It becomes a forgi vable mistake, if it cannot be avoided or there is lawful reason behind it. This would help bring in a better relation between the workers and their advisors, which create comfort to workers to do their jobs. 2) assume the employees who work over time demise but not least, the company should net an appropriate bonus wage the extra time workers. This has a big contribution to grow their motivation since there is an equivalent reward to achieve with the right amount of hard works to do.This policy would bring winnings not only to the workers, but as well to the company because it can obtain more productivity from the workers. Some people whitethorn think that this would increase the short-term woo of production. However the long-term profit would outperform the short-term cost. Moreover the higher(prenominal) cost of production can be cover by higher price of the products. These higher price would then move more profit, since the products would be produced more cause by the increase in workers motivation. Therefore, this idea would bring benefit to the company in the long term. IV.Effects of the etymons a) Do zero By doing nothing, the problem remains and the company may lose profits and portrays a weak image of him to his co-workers. But by doing nothing can accommodate positives shipway such as cheap in the short- term and avoiding the risks of making bigger mistakes b) There would be no more labor turnover &038 difficulties in recruiting new employees. subsequently all, these solutions would bring more comfort to the working condition in the company. There is would less reason for worker willing resign. Moreover, it could lead to a competition for people to work there.Hence, managers or chairman need to keep a management that benefits both the workers and the company. c) uprise a new management system The good management would automatically lead to better relation among workers, which then brings a better working atmosphere to work better. If this could happen, the productivity of the company would increase. On the other side, we dont know if the new manager will be better than the other one nicer, understanding and skilled. If we take this risk, it will take a bunch of time and costs and at the end we are sure of nothing. If the manager d).Pay the employees working overtime. It could drive the employees and would out perform themselves, and in any case bring a long term financial investment for the company but could get more costs in short-term too. V. Theory and Conclusion We can see that the way George s running his company would correspond to the Mc Clellands 3 needs theory. He wants to perform influence and control others (Npower). He is look for success and he fears of failure (Nachievement). hitherto he does not take conduct of his employees he does not pay heed to his social group.In conclusion George does not follow the right way, he should follow the Frederick Herzberg s theory, which means motivate his employees to do well job , respects hygiene in order to obtain job atonement from the employees. So finally the best solution for George and his company would be to pay more attention to the employees, make them feel good in the company, show that George is involved in the production process and moreover give to people the money they deserve. So it is a combination of the solution two and three.
