Abstract

This study used Al Ahli Bank of Kuwait to complete research on the effects of the global economic crisis on the financial performance of conventional banks in Kuwait over the period from 2000-2015. The study results show that the global economic crisis does not have a statistically significant impact on the financial performance of conventional banks in Kuwait. However, the study finds out that some macroeconomic conditions such as equity and bank size are very crucial to traditional banks’ profitability. Increasing the owner's equity was found to decrease the impact of the financial crisis on the conventional banks in ...

Introduction

The invention and development of computers have changed many aspects of human society. Most of these changes were too revolutionary, that it is often hard to imagine a life without computers. This increasing reliance of the society towards computing technology is referred to by scholars as ‘internet of things’, a term they use to describe the interconnectedness of people and computing technologies (Gubbi, Buyya, Marusic & Palaniswami, 2013, p.1646). One of the most impacted professions in the advancement of computers is the accounting profession. In fact, computing and accounting are so related that they are often used interchangeably. For accountants, ...

Introduction
Politics has been a major driving force in the US economy and arguably all other economies in the world. It is therefore of little surprise that much of what is covered in the media and by journalists revolves around politics. The mainstream media has been the main means of communication between politicians and their supporters. For years on end, politicians have been using print, visual, and audio media to send messages and agendas to the people. These forms of media became instrumental especially during elections periods. They were the main means of reaching out to a large ...

Individual’s productivity in any working environment is measured by tracking that person’s performance. People work differently depending on the environment they are based in. Individuals who work on a commission based salary tend to work harder and efficiently than an individual who is working for no salary or someone who works for the government. The best industry that monitors one’s productivity is baseball. It uses a wide range of statistical tools to analyze one’s performance in the game. Statistics plays a very important role in baseball than any sport because it has structured flow; and ...

The prohibition of marijuana has for long been a subject of heated debates, arguments, and counter-arguments regarding the effects of such action around social and political circles. Many argue that the use of marijuana makes an individual intoxicated which results in feelings of anxiety, fear, and panic. Others argue that marijuana-induced intoxication leads to impairment of the memory, negatively affecting coordination and reaction time. Legalization of marijuana is believed to be a good thing since it will lead to the collection of larger amount of tax revenues and lower government spending. In spite of the fact that a large ...

History

Researchers today have gone through a long process to be able to take their research study to human subjects. Minors, elderly and prisoners’ studies are governed by numerous regulations and protocols. Other human subjects who do not fall under these categories are also protected by the regular standards that researchers must adhere to; for instance, informed consent and confidentiality. This was not always the case though; the journey to developing the modern medical ethics people enjoy today took years of conducting painful and brutal experiments on human subjects. The history of medical ethics seems to harbor many unthinkable and ...

Twitter before anything else a tool of communication, which large companies, such as airlines for example, use to improve the relationships with their clients providing them with a follow-up or additional customer care service. However, there are numerous ill-made decisions and misuse of the Twitter potential in terms of branding and upholding the image of the company.

Discussion

The companies that drew attention to their proficient skill in using the Twitter platform are American Airlines, Delta Air Lines, Southwest Airlines, and United Airlines. It is obvious that the general principles of use are similar. However, each company has a specific ...

Introduction
It is common to see people using animals for sports and entertainment. Examples of sporting events that use animals are horse racing, cockfighting and many others, while zoos and circuses are among those who keep animals for entertainment. While most people enjoy these events and public display of animals, there are those who believe that such activities are unethical and morally wrong. There are, at least, four major reasons why people should not use animals for sport and entertainment. These are violation against nature; violation against the sensitivities of other people; cruelty against animals; and violation ...

The aim of this paper is to discuss the fraud that took place in the Bayou Hedge Fund Group and its impact on the organization’s investors and creditors. The organization was established in 1996 as Samuel Israel III and a gathering of foundations and hedge funds were united as the originator encouraged them to in the long run bring $450 million up with the expectation that the fund would develop to more than $7 billion in a ten year time span.

Part 1: Expenditures Approach to Calculating GDP

2. The process of inflation significantly influences the value of nominal GDP. The real GDP is calculated with a view to present real economic situation on the basis of GDP and other financial indicators of particular year. The real GDP presented in the table is calculated on the basis of chain-type quantity index as well as 2009 current-dollar value of the corresponding series. Therefore this index weights more than one period simultaneously being more reliable determinant of economic development. The nominal GDP of all the periods is greater than the real GDP that proves the phenomenon of inflation comparing ...

The Industrial Revolution began in England in the late 18th century, spreading all across Europe before it finally reached North America and Canada at a later date. The late arrival of the revolution to the colonies was, at least in part, due to the distance between them and the countries of Europe. We can, however, also demonstrably say that the slowness of the revolution in Canada at least was due to the sheer distances involved in the colonies themselves. This paper will examine the industrial revolution in Canada, moving from general terms to specific ones, in order to show ...

Sunrise: A Song of Two Humans was first released in 1929, but the story itself feels as though it has been told time and again through the ages. In this film, a married man meets a woman—a dangerous, beautiful woman—who tries to lure him away from his dutiful wife. What begins seemingly as a crime story evolves into exactly what the title suggests: it is the song of two humans and their relationship to each other over the course of the film (Sunrise: A Song of Two Humans, 1929). It is important to note that Sunrise is ...

While Lightner Witmer has been largely credited with the conceptualization and creation of a separate field of study for school psychology (D’Amato et al., 2011), it has it’s true roots, in many ways, in the creation of the IQ test. The IQ test was pioneered by Alfred Binet who was specifically interested in the standards of the normal mind. Today, the Binet-Simon scale, first generated in 1905, is still used in schools to determine a child’s overall ability to perform certain tasks (Binet & Simon, 1905). Perhaps more significantly, however, it was significant that Binet recognized that ...

Abstract

Although obliged to cover issues in their entirety, with no distortions made in the process, American media tend to misrepresent the reality, as was the case with the depiction of Muammar Gaddafi’s regime implications for the social welfare possibly for political reasons. The noble cause of saving the international image of the USA formerly allied with the late leader in the wake of the Gaddafi demonization could have been the driving force of misrepresentation of the myth related in part to ethical minorities. The knowledge of non-consequentialism and its principles, whether unconsciously or otherwise, allows readers to perceive ...

How did the Cold War affect the growth of technology in the United States?

The Cold War that was ignited between the United States and the USSR after the Second World War has a considerable impact on the dramatic progress of science and technology. The end of WWII marked the rise of these two superpowers, that became threatened and suspicious of the motive of each other. That is, the USSR feared that the United States was leading a move towards imperialist expansion, while the latter was threatened of the possible expansion of communism by its former WWII ally.
Not wanting to be upstaged by the other, it was under this climate of suspicion ...

The ritual of marriage is a very important milestone in the life of an individual and, more so, in the life of an individual who is also a devout Christian. The Scripture often mentions the sanctity of marriage as well as the permanency of it in one’s life. Such descriptions have resulted in a dilemma for particular individuals who, for some unfortunate reason, have had to divorce and remarry. At present, Catholicism does not permit divorced individuals to remarry unless and until they have had their marriage annulled by the Church.
While the Orthodox Catholic views on remarriage ...

Circumstances, where confidentiality agreements are necessary

Nowadays, the intensity of competition among the producers of confectionary is crossing the boundaries of imagination. In order to stay competitive, the businesses have to reduce their overheads, while trying to maintain the appropriate quality standards of their products. These research and development activities require substantial funding, and, in order to safeguard their achievements from being imitated by the competitors, the ultimate contents of products are held in the strictest confidentiality (Hasnas, 2006).
Food companies often offer lucrative settlements to those, who have been affected by their products (Maclntyre, 2008). Yet, the majority of such offers have a small, ...

On October 19, 2014, more than 40,000 fans crowded into the sold-out World Cup Stadium in Seoul, South Korea, to watch a highly anticipated final match of a world championship series. The massive audience did not pack into the stadium to watch a concert. They did not come out in droves to witness teams of football players make touchdowns. They did not scream and cheer as men made baskets in a tense basketball game. This was not a traditional sporting event; ...

Abstract

Sexual harassment or violence creates a hostile working environment characterized by low employee morale, low productivity or even worse for an organization, the expensive lawsuits that may ensue. Keeping sexual harassment away is the concerted effort of the employers or management. The Federal government in its Antidiscrimination Laws describes sexual violence and the consequences that would follow for the offenders. In addition to these laws and the state laws, organizations seek to develop policies and programs to prevent incidences of sexual violence at their workplaces. In so doing, they ensure high employee morale and hence productivity as well as ...

Suggest the issues that could have developed had the team not had taken a risk plan

Within a Satellite Development Project, new technology, with often untested outcomes, is involved. In the absence of a risk plan, the technology included in this project could have generated unexpected results that might have compromised the project. As the project’s description informs, the satellite development project implied many unknowns with variables that stretched across manufacture, supply chain system integration, etc. (Lavigne, n.d.). With the high amount of unknown factors, many aspects could have gone wrong in the project, which could have endangered its success. Risk refers to uncertainty regarding future events and outcomes, expressing “the likelihood and impact ...

“The storm” by kate chopin

The character of Calixta is the protagonist or main character of the story although she appears to be visible only in a few of the pages in the novel. However, the main bulk of her character comes from her personal point of view about love and life. I have chosen the character of Calixta because of her mysterious character that was slowly revealed until the end of the story. Calixta’s character is interesting because there more to her than what meets the eye.
In the beginning, the audience perceives Calixta’s character to be ordinary in the sense ...

Introduction

Antigone is a dreadful tragedy written around 441 BC by the Sophocles. It was the last of the Theban plays but chronologically written first. The other pieces of Sophocles have attracted more controversy and nothing has inspired people more than Antigone (Lewis, p. 35). It is an outline of achievements of man, modern in its tone deceptively, has impressed many, and most probably, it is said if it is attached with, choral odes would turn to this poem. It was written at a time of a national intensity or fervor. When the play was performed, Sophocles was known to ...

The living environment shapes who people are. Naturally, in neighborhoods with a negative criminogenic environment, people often go deviant, and, when they do, it often is at a relatively young age. Researchers have gone to great lengths to study the underlying causes of delinquent behavior of young residents. Poverty appears to be one of the principal driving forces of offenders long with income disproportion, albeit to a far lesser extent. The blockade of opportunities or the means to achieve culturally acceptable norms in the society is also an important motivation. While race is not universally found to cause delinquency, ...

Executive Summary

Globalization and external environmental factors affecting change management transform the role of Human Resource Development from facilitator to change leader and highlight the importance of emotional intelligence on individual and group levels within organizations. The intense global competition requires firms to rely on the effective human resource management department to play the major role of keeping employees engaged. With increasing number of firms willing to penetrate global markets and the fact that competence among employees is seen as the main driver to success, it is imperative that human resource managers co-operate with other departments to improve competitive position of ...

Many a time have people heard about politicians who do plenty of talking. However, verbal rhetoric is only meaningful when backed by actual deeds aimed at the improvement of what politicians oversee, which is society and its welfare. The incumbent Senate President of New Jersey, Stephen Sweeney is one of such politicians who may be said to utilize his legislative authority to its limit. He has showed his aptitude in areas, such as education, property ownership, taxation, healthcare, and the protection of different social categories. Of course, as with other prominent politicians, however renowned, Sweeney has made some controversial ...

Smith, Augier & Nettleford in their article on Rastafarianism note that its beginnings were in the 1920s. While the movement is believed to have officially started in 1933 in Jamaica, the movement or rather religion, already had started. The country of Jamaica is believed to have had two specific individuals that guided the movement that has become known as Rastafarianism - Bedward and Marcus Garvey. In most contexts, the latter is more prominently discussed being regarded as the father of the movement.
The idea behind Rastafarianism as Smith, Augier & Nettleford articulate is to proclaim African American nationalism and subsequently, the ...

Abstract

Juvenile delinquency in the United States is steadily increasing at an alarming rate. The age pool of offenders keeps on decreasing even for violent crimes such as homicide and rape. It is unclear on how the society deteriorated in successive decades since the 1970s crack cocaine epidemic. Street gangs took over droves of students into their establishments while promising acceptance. The programs that came to the aid of the criminal justice system were two pronged. The primary program is prevention. This program holds the potential to safeguard schoolchildren who are yet to succumb to the pressures and circumstances around ...

The gun control debate has been raging in the open parlance for quite sometimes, at least everybody in America feels the need to be safe, and the only controversy is how to be safe; by allowing more guns to civilians or by withdrawing or limiting the number of guns held by civilians? The Second Amendment to the American Constitution, which came into force in 15th December 1791, has provisions protecting civilians’ rights of keeping and bearing firearms (Klukowski 195). However, debates on gun controls have majorly questioned the role of the government in ensuring that it provides security services ...

Impact on Relationships

The advent of social networking has introduced a new dynamic to how people relate to one another in society. Where once only a broad circle of individuals might be known to a single person, now through social networking a single user can be connected to dozens if not hundreds of other people in a matter of minutes. From Facebook to Twitter to LinkedIn and several others, social networking has managed to connect the world in a way it has never known before. For all this however there is a very real and noticeable disconnect between individuals in terms of ...

Introduction

The evolution of cosmetics has played a significant role in the civilization that has been massively witnessed in the world. Though the current cosmetic users do not recognize this fact, for several centuries, cosmetics were used in religious ceremonies, for the enhancement of beauty and also for the promotion of good health. This assisted in altering the way people looked, fixed their bodies in times of ill-health and also enabled the expression of religion, as well as, beliefs in different communities. Presently, the cosmetic industry has been tremendously successful thus presenting a broad base of products to choose from. ...

The Decline of Face to Face Communication

For a particular category of people, who have an outgoing nature and would have made friends quickly anyway, it's doubtful social media would make much of a difference. They would still have relationships and social circles outside the media. For them, the social media is just an extension of their real-world. It all depends on the person and how one uses it. Some people might use social media to enhance their relationships and meet new people, where others might use it to quantify the amount of friends they have or use it to spy on people so that they ...

The use of guns has been a controversial issue for many decades. The argument of gun violence and gun protraction has been an important discussion regarding political parties. “The Constitutional Second Amendment states that people have the right bear arms” . This means that people of society have the right to own a gun and protect themselves. Even though the Constitution states bearing arms is legal, there are many groups that do not think this is a good idea.
The crime that occurs in our country results in a lot of gun issues involved in these crimes. People who should ...

Intermodal Containers

Introduction
The intermodal container is one of the most common sights in ports, harbors and docks. It is so common that its importance and significance to modern logistics is often overlooked. But despite the seemingly simple design of intermodal containers, its universal usefulness in transporting goods could not be undermined that it can be considered as one of the most important development in the field of transportation and logistics. Despite its importance in commerce and logistics, the intermodal container is also at risk of being utilized by the lawless elements of society. Without proper security, containers can be used ...

Rome brought light to the darkest and the most barbaric places of the world, and if and when it did, these were areas that posed value to the strategic interests of the empire rather than be regions that needed civilizing. Britain was the island whose unique geography allowed founding a city serving the imperial interests well. Its conquest improved the image of the empire as a formidable force to reckon with and enhanced the reputation of the emperor. Furthermore, the introduction of religious and cultural buildings into Londinium served the ideological purpose of exposing the new subjects to the ...

Section 1. The Problem

Asthma is a chronic airway condition affecting 6.3 million children or 8.6% of the population younger than 18 years (CDC, 2016). School-age children spend 6-7 hours of each day in school for 171-182 days per year (NCES, 2011). As such, the school is a suitable environment for asthma prevention and management. For instance, there are schools which have implemented asthma programs to educate students about asthma and self-management, develop asthma action plans, and create safe environments for learning (CDC, 2015).
The chosen setting is a school district in a county in a northcentral U.S. state. It is composed of ...

“Keeping the peace: Conflict management strategies for nurse managers” by Johansen Mary

The specific conflict that the author addresses in this article is the interpersonal conflict. In the previous section, the author was able to describe the conflict as a form of disagreement of which the involved parties perceive a threat to their needs, interests, or concerns. However, those conflicts that occur in healthcare environments tend to be complicated as they normally involve the ongoing complex relationships that bases on emotions. A conflict also entails substantive, procedural and the psychological dimensions of which the participants in the conflict would respond on the basis of their perceptions regarding the particular situation. Therefore, ...

Alice Walker is an influential writer who expressed her passion for tradition and heritage in the compelling short story, Everyday Use. This critically acclaimed tale is set in the rural South of the 1960s, a backdrop against which Mrs. Johnson and her daughters, Dee and Maggie, play out a parable about the struggle for cultural integrity and of remaining true to one’s nature. In Everyday Use, Walker would have us understand that keeping faith with oneself is the best way to maintain a link to the past.

Background

For Walker, that past can be traced to her native Georgia. One of eight ...

What is a Study Skill?

Definition of a study skill: Study skills can also be called as study strategies and are defined as approaches which are employed while learning. Study skills can also be defined as an array of study skills, which may tackle the process of organizing and taking in new information, retaining information, or even dealing with assessments (Preston, 2001). Broadly speaking, study skills are any skills applied while studying to boost an individual’s ability to study and hence pass the exams. They are therefore generally vital to student’s success in their school work, and are hence considered as essential in ...
