Literature review

Various research papers have been written in respect to integration of natural user interfaces for illiterate people. The most notable research done on illiterate mobile use is one by Chipcase (2009). Chipcase and Lalji on conducting ethnographic studies on illiterate’s mobile users in Asian countries reported that while illiterates could successfully turn on their calls and receive incoming calls, dialling numbers to make outgoing calls remained a fundamental challenge. This applies also to sending text messages or using the contacts books in the mobile devices. Lalji et al (2008:20-6 ) found that illiterates utilized call logs in lie of ...

Most people in the modern world have become increasingly concerned about their weight for various reasons. Medical experts have continued to emphasize the importance of maintaining proper weight.

Degree:

Natural products have had an intimate association with medicine since the dawn of mankind, and the field of pharmacology traces its origins to the use of medicinal plants, animals and microbes (Peláez, 2006). Early civilizations used products available from nature to deal with injuries and disease, and in so doing, often attributed a mystical quality to their world. Bioactive compounds derived from the natural world are responsible for many of the therapeutic effects that our ancestors experienced, and today, these compounds serve as the framework by which scientists develop novel drugs (Butler and Buss, 2006). ...

Friedrich Nietzsche was a prominent German Philosopher and was considered one of the controversial and well-read philosophers of the 19th century. His ideas about nature and morality continue being subject of debate and are majorly discussed by scholars to date. Friedrich Nietzsche dwells a lot about the issues of morality; he presupposes subjective morality as well as atheism. He argues from naturalistic point of view on how humanity is wholly responsible for the control of passions provided by nature and how religion is considered as anti-nature. People, in many occasions, have been questioning whether morality should be considered an ...

Jack London succeeds in vividly illustrating the story he tells in “To Build a Fire”, as thru his writing he has the literary strength to paint the happenings and to draw the clear image of his characters and their adventures. Moreover, the strength of his style, the form and writing technique and structure empowers the content of this short story and this strength is an attribute of formalism (Dobie 33). London’s critics argue whether his writings adjust to formalism, comparing the strength of the content, versus the power of the literary art. This essay investigates whether Jack London’ ...

The five Cs of credit model – character, collateral, capital, conditions and capacity, all serve as important indicators for gauging the inclination and aptitude of debtors in fulfilling the obligations they have to their respective creditors (Sraeel, 2005, p. 40, par. 5; Strischek, 2009, par. 2). It is thus advisable for creditors to make their decisions based on the five Cs of credit model in order for them to assess the creditworthiness of their respective debtors properly (Strischek, 2011, par. 1). The prominence of the five Cs of credit model resurged most recently during the 2008 global financial ...

Abstract

In “The Death of the Author,” structuralist thinker Roland Barthes suggested the notion of the author as a distinct identity in the creation and interpretation of a text was a thing of the past. Instead, he preferred the use of the word “scriptor” to refer to the person writing or typing a work for the first time. The ideas in the scriptor's mind would have to travel through his or her semiotic filters to make it to the paper – those filters take the ideas and shape them – for example, the inspiration ...

And because there is a level of urgency in the practice of medicine and healthcare, majority of the time healthcare practitioners does not have the luxury of time to contemplate on their actions. ...

Overview

Public agencies have until recently not been engaging in succession planning. Succession planning is the process by which an organization plans for and replaces outgoing managers, executives and selected chief employees. Such employees initially held vital positions affecting the success of the organization, and preparing for succession is critical to the success of an organization in its present and future plans. The process of succession planning includes carrying out preparations of how the organization will select and recruit successors, the most effective way to handle changes between executives and how to build upon its successors (Todnem & Macleod, 2009).

Introduction.

Everything we do has a limit. Limits are put to define the extent to which we can do certain things or even the extent to which we can move from a particular point. Boundaries are physical barriers which separate different areas. They are usually in the form of walls, roads, paths and so on. Therefore, maritime boundaries and limits are connected with the ownership of valuable resources and coastal state jurisdiction over foreign shipping. Inaccuracies and uncertainties over such sensitive issues are best avoided. There are numerous international disputes over limits and boundaries, some of which could endanger peace ...

The purpose of this research is to analyze the process creating, SB 4, the legislation on hydraulic fracking as an opportunity to understand how and why the fracking issue gained enough momentum to reach the level of legislative decision. Policies that reach the decision-making level on a legislative agenda have been driven to that level by internal and external factors of the government (Kingdon, 1995). The factors and actors that worked together to put ‘fracking’ on the agenda of the California Assembly and Senate are interesting because of the wide range of opinions held by the proponents ...

In Macbeth, ambition combines with evil forces to commit evil deeds which result in fear, apprehension, guilt and an escalating cycle of violent murders. Above all, Macbeth is a study of the psychology of two central characters (Macbeth and his wife) react as individuals and as a couple to the psychological trauma of their evil deeds. In the course of the action, Macbeth frequently misconstrues the guilt that he feels as simply being a question of fear. As a warrior, this self-delusion works because he thinks that he knows no fear and it leads directly to his response to his guilt and his descent into more violence. His usual way of expiating his guilt is to commit more murders, either personally or by order. This, unfortunately, only provokes further guilt and mental torment.

SB 4 is the first California law to address the issue of hydraulic fracturing or fracking for natural gas in California. The fracking method had been used in California for several years without any regulation (Freyman, 2014, p. 59). Therefore, the research studied the possible reasons the issue became a part of public conversation, and finally reached the agenda setting level of the California legislature. And, only that, the issue became law in California. Well simulation is the term used in SB 4 to describe three types of the procedure hydraulic fracturing, acid matrix stimulation, and ...

Socrates is popular for his shifting thoughts on Greek philosophical ideas about the nature of the universe. Philosophers before Socrates’ time also examined of the problems associated with human life. Nonetheless, Socrates was the first philosopher to analyze ethics as a science. In addition, Socrates looked at the principles of human life from a methodical and consistent perspective. Many critics note that Socrates influenced the expansion of Western philosophy and culture in many ways. In fact, a number of critics believe that Socrates was instrumental in his teachings and such thoughts impacted on the development of Christianity. Arguably, Socrates ...

Love is difficult to define as a concept; it carries philosophical, social, cultural, political, biological and even spiritual meanings to many people for many different reasons. However, despite the differences in culture and attitude, love is an enduring concept that is found in most, if not all, modern cultures. As people, we are bound to others in a need for connection and bonding, but what fuels that connection? Is the thing that powers our need to love the same as mental illness? Is it a biological imperative or a social one, and is it healthy either way? It is ...

This paper seeks to show, as Owen (1994) believes, that peaceful regimes based on a liberalist democracy are more likely to secure and maintain a condition of “democratic peace” than regimes that are neither liberal nor democratic. However, as reported by Kahneman and Renshon (2007), even liberalist decision-makers have to be wary of advice offered by hawkish advisors, because the human mind has a natural bias towards the more aggressive solutions and to be unrealistically optimistic about the consequences of such decisions.

How Liberalism Produces Democratic Peace:

When referring to a person as an ‘enemy combatant,’ it is typically in the context of a war between states, particularly when one state is holding a military officer or member of the opposing state. It is state that is normally afforded fewer rights and privileges as a prisoner of war, and is often used to be able to punish or interrogate prisoners without needing to give the individual the treatment and rights that are offered them in the Geneva Convention. Before 9/11, an enemy combatant was defined by the Supreme Court as an agent who has come ...

Abstract

Plato proposed that the ultimate form of government was either an oligarchy or kingdom. Pericles held the belief that democracy was the form of government under which prominence grew. Plato was a revered and eventually became well respected teacher in Classical Athens, his way of thinking and his views of a perfect society show him to be somewhat of an idealist more than a realist, as Pericles himself proved to be with his actions and achievements throughout his lifetime.  In Plato’s time, he valued reason above all else, and through thought, he sought to change the way a city state was run and controlled.  Pericles, on the other hand, used his aristocratic background and resources to make lasting improvements on the way of life for the citizens of Athens.
