Introduction
After Global Agreement for Trade and Tariff came into existence in the 1990s, the overall supply chain process used in companies changed completely. Companies started sourcing raw materials and finished goods from thousands of miles away to gain cost advantage even though those were available nearby the point of consumption (Kannan and Sasikumar, 2009). Supply chain suddenly became the main differentiating factor between companies. The supply chain process increased the overall goods movement, which increased the greenhouse gas emission enormously. Increased level of demands started generating huge amounts of waste and this became a concern for the governments. ...

Factors affecting logistics in international borders

Companies working across international borders have many things to take into account before embarking on such a move. Some of the factors affecting logistics across international borders include financial matters like exchange rates that play a key role in logistics. These include factors like suppliers, transport means and in other cases inventories that directly influence variables in logistics.
Culture is also an important factor to take into consideration if any business hopes to make it in international business. Different countries have different cultures and one gesture from one person may be gross to the locals. It is therefore, important to ...

Telomerase also known as telomere terminal transferase is a type enzyme in all vertebrates that extends Die ribonucleic acid sequence by repeating TTAGGG to the Die ribonucleic acid terminal strands in the region known as the telomere. It is found in adult germ cells, fetal tissues, and tumor cells. Telomere is the region of repeated nucleotide, which is made up of non-coding Die ribonucleic acid material. The region prevents loss of vital Die ribonucleic acid from chromosome terminals. This results to only a hundred to two hundred nucleotides being lost each interval the chromosome is duplicates, thus no damage is caused ...

Reverse discrimination is defined as showing favour to the minority group in a particular setting. This is considered rather ironical as discrimination is usually shown to the minority group. Despite its negative implications, reverse discrimination has become common especially in the work place. There are various reasons for its wide use the main one being taking affirmative action on the minority group. Organisations usually introduce certain tactics to enhance performance as well as instilling discipline in the work place. Even though this strategy boosts the morale of the minority group, it demoralizes the majority who may in turn decide to ...

Thermodynamics of Refrigeration

In the olden days winter was the best time of the year for cold drinks, sorbets and ice creams because ice was readily available. Without a thorough understanding of thermodynamics our communities might have to be brought their ice in an ice wagon just like in the olden days. The laws of thermodynamics were developed by scientists and used when processes of the Industrial Revolution were developed. The physics of heat transfer are applied in order to transfer heat away from the portion of a refrigerator or air conditioning that needs to continually cool the air. Now the ...

Introduction

Interest rate, especially the repo and reverse repo rate set by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) have a profound effect on the value of real estate like any other investment vehicle. Because of great influence of the interest rate on an individual’s ability to purchase houses by increasing or decreasing the cost of the total mortgage amount, many people assume that interest is the only factor in real estate valuation. However, this assumption is not true. Interest rate definitely plays a big role in determining the housing prices, but it is not the only factor influencing the price of a ...

INTRODUCTION

In the 1980s a new disease was spreading. It was previously unknown, but seemed quite contagious and quite virulent. HIV, the Human Immunodeficiency Virus, is defined exactly as it sounds. It is a virus that causes an infection that negatively affects the immune system. That infection attacks and weakens the immune system, making an individual at greater risk for contracting other opportunistic diseases. When the immune system becomes too damaged it leaves the patient open to contracting AIDS, the Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome, which essentially disables the immune system, which leaves sufferers to deal with many of unpleasant symptoms associated ...

They drive cars, do drugs and to some extent, they are engaged with driving cars. Life changes completely for the teenagers and the few people who have been allowed to move to another community (Walker, 1). An interesting phenomenon ensues ...

Introduction

In the United States, the Federal Reserve System is charged with regulating the country’s monetary policy. The system was implemented after leaders noted the deficiencies in the previous national banking system. The previous system had a currency that was inelastic and there were liquidity problems in the economy. There were a lot of financial panics in the economy caused by the inefficiencies in the system.
A republican representative proposed the creation of a centralised banking system that would operate with a minimum level of government involvement. The Federal Reserve System was instituted in 1913. The system was able to solve three ...

Background of the Problems

Theories Related to Successful Aging
Bowling (2005) defined successful aging from a sociological perspective highlighting that "the substantial increases in life expectancy at birth achieved over the previous century, combined with medical advances, escalating health and social care costs, and higher expectations for older age, have led to international interest in how to promote a healthier old age and how to age successfully" (p.1). To this end, some research studies have outlined theories which can be applied to successful aging.
DeLiema & Bengston (2015) examined both the activity theory and disengagement theory. Specifically, these theories have been stated to be ...

A brake is a device that produces artificial resistance to the moving part of a machine to stop or slow down its motion. Any machine or its part that is in motion possesses kinetic energy. As per physical laws, energy cannot be destroyed; its form can only be transformed. The brake system converts the kinetic energy of the moving machine or part into thermal, potential or chemical energy. Brake systems are of various types utilized in different applications in industries, home appliances, vehicles, railway trains, and other sectors. This paper has focused on the brake systems used in vehicles, ...

The callous opinions of unmoved minds regarding the value, or legitimacy, of Affirmative Action policies in the country today have always been controversial. While a most imperative requirement to sufficiently examine such an issue demands a strong evaluation of the historical conditions that brought affirmative action to bear in the first place, this research paper must remain within the confines of time and length constraints. How has affirmative action changed since the 1960s? Of course, the short answer might be that its policies are no longer exclusively applied to black ...

Incorporate customer service and the supply chaincustomer service issues must be responded to if the supply chain has to function efficiently and at a high efficiency. It avoids disruptions in the supply chain because customers directly influence demand. Consequently, customer service should be seen as a constituent of the supply chain and managers must allocate due importance to it. Just like within the supply chain, customer service should be prophylactic, not irritable (Langevin, 2005). A service-oriented architecture integrates business service mechanisms to balance demand and supply and augment inventory levels and customer service. Integrating this with cooperative implementation can help to ...

Introduction

It is a cliché to say that the relationship between China and the world has become complex, multidimensional and interdependent. But that does not mean that we fully understand the complexity of the Chinese attitude towards globalization nor its interdependence with the world in general and the Western industrial democracies in particular, with the implications thereof. The thesis that we develop in this article argues that economic interdependence greatly strengthens Chinese authoritarianism in its ability to politically influence the attitude of States and civil liberties in Western democracies, rather than the reverse. It contradicts the usual thesis that Western ...

An incongruence exists between the expectations a society has of what women are capable of and how that society regards the increasing number of women that meet and exceed those expectations. This dissonance between ideal and actual is not restricted to one geographical locale. It is a worldwide phenomenon (Culp-Ressler, 2014). Given the increasing integration of the global economy, and the dominance of the mass media in that integration, the contribution of women is coming into a sharp focus (BBC Magazine, 2012). Additionally, because the technologies driving globalization are relatively homogeneous, it is possible to deduce the sentiments the ...

Each member of the society wants a peaceful, crime-free neighborhood. In the desire to obtain such an environment the government commissioned the work of policemen to main peace and order by enforcing the law. However, despite the importance of their role in the community, police personnel continue to earn negative image from the public. It should be noted that the publics’ perception to law enforcement officers play a crucial role in maintaining peace and order. A positive perception will more likely help in meeting such goals. It is therefore important to understand the causes of the negative perceptions against the police. ...

In the 100 years between the end of the Civil War and the signing of the Voting Rights Act of 1965, African Americans continued to experience the violence and racism that they had endured as slaves. This racism was not only social and political separation, but also legal separation. The legal segregation was codified into law so that African Americans were denied equal access to service and opportunities such as housing, medical care, education, employment, transportation, and entertainment. Because this separation was established in state and local laws, any resistance by African Americans resulted in arrest and prosecution. However, ...

Abstract

Identifying and predicting psychopathic traits by analyzing childhood behaviours must be based on sound psychometrics to ensure scientifically reliable results. Statistical analysis using G-Power (computer model for calculations) aids in analyszing the results from surveys and personality assessments which are administered to teens and young adults from communities, colleges, juvenile homes and jails in order to understand how the data from self reported questionnaires can reliable be used to predict psychopathic behavior. The ability to do so would be very helpful for counseling and could possibly help avoid psychopathic behaviors in young people that are self-destructive ...

Greenhouse emits carbon dioxide gas that traps heat from the sun thereby contributing to global warming. Global warming is mainly worsened by activities that continue to increase carbon dioxide in the atmosphere for example burning fossil fuels and natural gas, forest damage and manufacture of cement which consumes a lot of globe possessions.

Abstract

The hippocampus is a part of the limbic system found in the temporal lobe. Hippocampal neurogenesis, the ability of the hippocampus to generate/produce new neurons all through to adulthood, has been linked to emotion moderation, spatial navigation, learning, memory, and cognitive function. These functions are usually impaired in depression and anxiety and hence the speculations that hippocampal neurogenesis plays a critical role in the etiology, pathophysiology and even the treatment depression and anxiety. The hippocampal neurogenesis hypothesis attempts to explain the role of hippocampal neurogenesis in the development of depression and anxiety based on findings from various studies.
