Introduction

The Anti-Markovnikov process in organic chemistry generally involves addition reaction method of an electrophilic substituent, HX to an alkene or alkyne compounds, in such a way that the Hydrogen atom in the HX electrophile are chemically bonded to the carbon atom containing the least amount of Hydrogen attached to it. This addition process commonly uses catalysts or additive compounds in order to hasten the reaction since the process is quite expensive and toxic in nature. Furthermore, there is also a limited number of reactions involved in using the Anti-Markovnikov addition, making its research more difficult to expand and develop.

Article Review: Trying Children as Adults

This 2002 paper by Allen discussed the increasing recent trend by many U.S. states to amend laws so that juvenile offenders can more easily be transferred to adult courts.

In his Introduction, Allen commented that whilst America allegedly holds its children in high regard, it nonetheless increasingly heads towards trying juveniles in adult courts for more and more crimes. He stated the country has gone “full circle”, starting from a justice system with ...

Abstract
In the present paper, the impact of mentoring on students and employees has been investigated. It has been hypothesized that mentoring positively impacts their overall well-being if provided considering the specific conditions of mentees. Development Mentoring is an approach to school-based mentoring in which high school students work with junior elementary school mentees. Rhodes (2002) stated that around 50 percent peer-mentoring meetings end within initial three months. However, there is a lack of research conducted on premature meetings termination and mentors' absenteeism.

The article that will be reviewed is “Transfer of juveniles to adult court: Effects of a broad policy in one court”. The aim of the study is to determine the effects and implications of transferring juvenile offenders to the adult court.
One of the key points presented in the study are the possible detrimental effects of the transfer. The possibility of a longer sentence for the adolescent offender exists when he is transferred to an adult court, which is quite unlikely if he had been tried in a juvenile court. Another detrimental effect is victimization. When adolescents are place in adult ...

According to the Sachs’ three-tier model, the world of innovators is divided into high innovators (so-called “core” economies), technological diffusers and the excluded poor. High innovators, such as U.S.A and Sweden, for instance, are known as creators and sellers of original knowledge. Within 5 to 20 years this knowledge is adopted by technological diffusers as local firms purchase sophisticated machines to lower their production costs, FDI in high-tech industries is established and consumers buy innovative goods for personal use. Costa Rica, Mexico and Taiwan can be named among these. The excluded poor are naturally the most disadvantaged countries with ...

1. Design an integrated brand development communication programme for Taris that incorporates name, logo, symbols, and colour. If you cannot draw a label, just describe it, like brand name, background colour, other brand elements, etc.

Bitcoin is purely peer-peer electronic cash that makes it possible for online money payments to be remitted directly from one party to the other without having to go through financial institutions. With bitcoin, digital signatures are considered part of the solution but the problem arises when the trusted third party is needed to curtail any form of double spending. The solution to this double spending lies in bitcoin; this is because it timestamps transactions by hashing them into a hash-based work proof. This makes it form a network that will not be altered unless the proof-of work is redone. Bitcoin has ...
