What aspects of Jones investments benefits program are likely to appeal to Aden? Explain

The excellent profit sharing plan which sees 80% of profits deferred to retirement account is likely to benefit Aden. This is because Aden is in his 30s which is the best time that most of people start thinking about retirement (Lembaga, 24). This will also appeal to Aden because he has past work experience, a thing that shows he has established himself in the employment sector and started off his life. He thus has less spending wage and won’t mind the 80% profit deferment. The one week paid vacation pack for one year employee at Jones and two ...

Three phase induction motors

Introduction The three-phase induction machine is the most widely used among the rotating machines. An induction machine offers an almost constant speed within its normal operating range when operated off a constant-voltage, constant-frequency, and with the electric power source. The cost of purchasing these machines is very low, and they require little maintenance. However, speed control is difficult and very expensive. Therefore, the rotor current of the three phase induction motors is not induced by electrical connections, but rather the rotation of magnetic field.

Squirrel Cage Rotor construction

The rotor type of the motor is made up of a laminated core which is ...

When I was growing up, I was unlike many children in that I always looked forward to my dentist appointments. Every time I visited the dentist, I paid attention to everything they were doing, and asked questions. I listened intently as the dentist explained things to me, asking further questions if I was not satisfied with the response. As I grew up, I started to conduct my own research at home to answer my questions about this field of medicine. From a young age, I knew I wanted to be a dentist and now it is my primary goal. ...

Secondary school was the determinant moment to define that the health sciences will be my vocation. My vocation for health sciences was not ...

Introduction

Young adults between the ages of 18 and 25 need at least seven hours of sleep each night to maintain their cognitive, emotional, and physical functions, but college students tend to lack quality sleep. A sample of 1,160 college students reported sleeping on average 5.85 ± 1.85 hours per night, and 35% of them considered their sleep bad or very bad (Elagra et al., 2016). Lack of sleep has been associated with higher risk of negative moods, unintentional injuries, risk-taking behaviors, and poor academic performance (National Adolescent and Young Adult Health Information Center, 2014).

Abstract

Fraud in the resume of job candidates is on the rise. This has been necessitated by stiff competition given that there are few jobs and many applicants. Misrepresentation of facts can have a negative impact on an organization. It can make or break it. There is a chance of an organization hiring a crook who could defraud it or steal using its facilities or name. Worse still, there is the issue of an organization’s reputation being tainted due to poor quality services or poor quality products made by its personnel. This can be nipped in the bud by ...

Malnutrition is the state of the body lacking important nutrients or having excess or imbalance of energy. According to studies, 16% of people over 65 years and 2% of people over 85 years are malnourished. Studies also show that approximately two-thirds of people occupying hospital beds are above the age of 65 years (Ahmed & Haboubi, 2010). Malnutrition is associated with a number of health outcomes such as poor wound healing, slow recovery from surgery, higher hospital readmissions, and deaths. Malnutrition is high ...

No two black leaders stand out during the civil rights movement of the 1960s as much as Malcolm X and Martin Luther King, Jr. Whereas the two men were polar opposites in achieving their respective ends – equality for African Americans – they both died much too young as the result of an assassin’s bullet. Malcolm X, best known for his separatist ideology, wanted “black power”, and Martin Luther King, Jr.’s integrationist ideology preached peace, and the brotherhood of all men, regardless of color – conflicting philosophies that yielded both desirable and undesirable results. Certainly, these two civil rights leaders’ ...

HCA 302. Health Care Organization

Introduction Health care systems are essential in providing security to nation-states world-over, which goes beyond health issues; entire economies depend on such vital system for security. One only has to imagine the devastation of a population by an infectious disease such as HIV/AIDS. Despite having some similarities, health systems vary from one country to the other. Notably, nations design as well as develop their health systems in line with their needs as well as the available resources. The United States and Canada share a border, and thus there is a natural inclination to compare the two health care regimes. ...

Life is all about overcoming obstacles. Sometimes, one has to face unexpected events that complicate one’s journey. Nevertheless, what is important is that one rises up to the challenge, so as to be greater than the hardships they propose. I faced such a dilemma in my third semester of studying to become a dental hygienist at SUNY Orange: I realized I was pregnant, giving birth during my finals. Logically, my grade point average went down significantly prior to last semester, which I deeply regret. However, I feel that I should still be accepted to City Tech in New ...

Complications of Removable Implant Supported Prostheses

Introduction The two main complications that result from removable implants are biological and mechanical/technical complications. There is need to assess and interpret data on the incidence of complications, both biological and technical with caution. Berglundh, Persson, and Klinge (2002), found that implant loss was the most common problem, while technical complications were observable in about 60-80% and biological complications – 40-60% of the studies they evaluated. According to Sadowsky (2007), there are no specifications on the length, distribution, and number of implants; however the suggestion for non-palatal coverage designs should be a minimum of 4 implants. In case of risk ...

What holes did you find in the article entitled, “Effective Gating?”

Dr. Cooper, R.G., in his article “Effective Gating” claims that modern companies do not stop any projects at their 1st stage, but rather take them all into further business’s product roadmap stations. Taking into account limited resources the company affords, passing too many innovative projects through the Gate 1 stage may result in financial losses and will definitely deter management from the most profitable ideas. However, the author also states that companies can and should kill and send for reviews projects at any stage, not only when the idea is just created (Cooper, 2009, p.13). So, he encourages ...

I woke this morning to the smell of fresh coffee; a regular brew of freshly crushed beans from which I draw enough energy to manage through the first hours of the day. After hastily downing two cups full of the concoction, I made my way to the bathroom for my morning ritual. Taking the small brush from my collection of cosmetics, I applied a small amount of the sticky white substance that is supposed to keep my teeth from rotting (at least temporarily). That may have been the single most important thing that I did this morning to ensure ...

Each and every single day people come across pictorial advertisements that endeavor to influence one’s opinions and activities in definite ways. Whether the purpose is to obtain a product or back a cause, many various corporations and organizations continuously solicit for the public’s consideration, and they recognize that the finest method of attaining it is through capturing advertising. However, in a culture surrounded by commercial advertisement, businesses have to be resourceful to stand out and stay ahead of the competition (Tag 120). Some creators use the suspense dynamic to create an impression to their audience, whereas others ...

Trisomy

Chromosomes are marvelous things! They carry in their genes the entire genetic code required to build a human being. Comprised of nucleic acid (DNA) and proteins, twenty-three pairs of chromosomes located in the cell nucleus are needed for the normal development of a human embryo. However, sometimes things go wrong. This paper will discuss some of the consequences of faulty chromosome separation during fertilization, resulting in Trisomy. Trisomy is a chromosomal condition which occurs when three chromosomes, instead of the normal two are produced during cell division. This happens due to the failure of human chromosome pairs to separate ...

GENERAL INFORMATION ON DENTAL IMPLANT TREATMENT

Objective of dental implants After losing teeth, the supporting bone segment is no longer essential and begins to gradually disappear (Misch, 2008). Once this begins, the missing portions can be replaced with removable dentures or fixed bridges; this process enhances visual appeal, corrects speech impediments and improves mastication. However, complications can occur when replacing living tissues with artificial apparatuses. Dentures have been shown to decrease the efficiency of the chewing process, initiate additional bone loss and often experience inadequate retention (Knowles, 1958). Furthermore, dentures may require additional support, which affects the healthy teeth that are ...

Introduction

Dental implants are increasingly becoming popular because a large section of clinicians believe that natural tooth restoration techniques are inferior to dental implants as implants have a longer life than natural tooth and are less susceptible to biological changes. There are various types of dental implants that support crown, bridges, and dentures, and act as orthodontic anchors and facial prosthesis. The basis of the modern dental implant is a biological process in which titanium forms a bond with bone. Dental fixture is first implanted and then a prosthetic is added. Over the years, various implant impression techniques, such as ...

The idea that schools should provide accommodations for those students who experience difficulty and disability is a relatively new one. In the past, primary, secondary, and tertiary educational institutions existed as institutions; however, as the sciences advanced and more became known about the nature of human learning disabilities, institutions of all different types and sizes began to realize that a learning disability is not necessarily associated with an intellectual disability. With this realization came the development of a number of important programs, all of which have one particular end goal: to develop an educational system in which people can ...

It was based on three core principles; that it meets the needs of all people, it is free at the point of delivery, and that it is based on clinical needs and not the ...

The personal care product that I rely on and that perhaps holds special meaning for me is Colgate brand of toothpaste. The reason for picking this brand is that I have used this product since my parents who had used the toothpaste for a long time introduced me to this brand and I have used it for all my life. In fact, prior to this assignment, I had not considered my brand loyalty to the Colgate toothpaste and even their toothbrushes. Considering that I brush my teeth daily, it is a fair assessment that I purchase the product regularly ...
