Many economists and international financial consultants suggest that capital account liberalization is an important strategy for developing countries in order to spur economic growth. Specifically, the International Monetary Fund once called for the emerging markets and other developing countries to tap into the possibilities of capital account liberalization (Gallagher & Antonion, 2013). The positive impact to developing countries of heightened access of capital flows resulted in the less attention on the risk associated with it (Takagi, 2005). However, recent pronouncements from leading financial organizations suggests that while there are benefits derived from capital account liberalization, there are disadvantages associated from ...

The History of Whistleblowing

Whistleblowing is a significant accountability tool in today’s corporate world. The practice is traceable to as early as the eighth century. However, in essence, it truly came into light when the Lincoln administration adopted the first ever whistleblowing law in 1863. Dubbed the Federal False Claims Act, the law outlawed the use of false statements in the name of blowing the whistle against an organization. In 1989, the Bush administration adopted the Whistleblowers Protection Act (1989). This law acted as a form of protection to federal whistleblowers who expose the government’s wasteful and fraudulent practices (Barnett, 1992). ...

Introduction

Pulmonary edema (PE) is characterized by the accumulation of fluid in the parenchyma and air spaces of the lungs. Most often PE is associated with respiratory failure and impaired gas exchange. Globally, PE is known to be characterized by two major factors, the first is associated with the injury of the lung parenchyma which is termed as non-cardiogenic pulmonary edema. The second is associated with the failure of the left ventricle of the heart to release blood from the pulmonary circulation within the system and is termed as cardiogenic pulmonary edema (Glaus, Schellenberg , and Lang. 2010). The major cause ...

The photomorpogenesis research project at Clemson University is very interesting. Photomorphogenesis means light-mediated growth, and photomorphogenesis research looks at how the manipulation of light sources effects plants. This regulation of plant growth is independent of photosynthesis and it is controlled by the pigment phytochrome. Phytochrome exists in two forms, Pr and Pfr and has peak absorptions at 660nm and 730nm red-range light. It’s the conversion of the pigment between the two forms that ultimately influences the plant growth, the morphology, flowering, and germination.

The photomorphogenesis research program at Clemson University was founded in 1985. The initial research ...

Abstract Relational Database Systems (RDBMS) are the most popular database systems today. The relational model of database management emerged from a dynamic database model called DataBase Management System (DBMS). Dbase and FoxPro were the popular DBMS in the 1970’s and 1980’s. RDBMS emerged in the 1990’s. Though RDBMS is a popular form of database management, few appreciate its true potential. Modern applications that allow multiple devices to access and manipulate data are overshadowing RDBMS. NoSQL models such as Hadoop and MapReduce allow document processing which is a feature that the relational model lacks. An in-depth understanding of the ...

“A man without ethics is a wild beast loosed upon this world.” –Albert Camus. An individual who does not consider ethics is a dangerous human being to the society. Ethics offer the rules of engagement among the members of the society. In a just ethical system, an individual should be awarded for what he has accomplished and worked for, instead of being credited for external factors, which alters the status of the individual by giving a head start. To understand the just ethical system, it is worth considering the articles by Namit Arora and David F. Wallace. The articles, “What do ...

Globalization of businesses has led to hundreds of thousands of Americans working in countries across continents. Needless to say, the culture prevalent in these nations varies greatly from American culture, especially when a person is working in a different continent. This applies regardless of how ‘developed’ a particular country or city is deemed to be. The culture of a country greatly influences interpersonal relations between local and expat employees and even the way in which business is conducted. American people constantly change things – their images, homes, products, services, and the way they do things. To Americans, change is good; change is improvement. ...
