One of the fundamental methods of determining liability in Tort Law is the “but-for” test. According to the test, liability is analyzed by asking the question: but-for the defendant’s negligence, would the plaintiff have been injured or harmed? If the answer is no, then the defendant, and only the defendant, is liable for the plaintiff’s harm. While the “but-for” is a Tort Law fundamental, it sometimes proves inadequate in determining a defendant’s liability. Consequently, Tort Law has developed other means of determining the cause of a plaintiff’s injury in fact. One of the alternatives to ...

Have a company policy

The first thing to understand about a sexual harassment complaint is that it is unlike many other workplace conflicts. Sexual harassment is an illegal act, whereas some other conflicts are not illegal, but issues of personality issues, inappropriate competition, or other problems which, although serious, do not violate federal law. Therefore, if Ana’s company does not have a written sexual harassment policy, the first thing the HR department should do is develop one and provide training so that all employees are aware of its provisions and understand how to abide by them (Heathfield 2016). Such a policy could ...

I am strongly against of the legalization of illicit drugs in the United States. I believe that such global trend is the legalization of illicit drugs is contraindicated for our society. Unfortunately, the level of reflection, self-knowledge and self-control in our society is low, our people do not turn to the spiritual practice, so this recognition of drugs would be simply disastrous for the US people. The main advantages of legalizing drugs are the taxes obtained by legal sells. But even this advantage is contradictory. Legalization of marijuana in two US states - Colorado and Washington - has not ...

Californios? Manifest destiny was a concept used by the Americans as a vision to enhance the expansion of their country regarding its exceptional behaviour, its size and regarding the general importance of the country globally.

Introduction

Bank typology has grown more complex as more formerly niche banking services gain greater customer bases, encouraging different banks to shift focus from the traditional retail banking format to a more complex and specialized arrays of banking services. Moreover, large banks, particularly multinational companies, maintain their retail operations while serving non-retail accounts, such as businesses, investors, and purely online customers (Pritchard, 2016). Further, certain organizations offer banking-like services to its members, such as credit unions and savings and loans associations (S&Ls).

The primary difference between the speeches President Woodrow Wilson gave before Congress in January 1917 and January 1918 was his tone. Naturally, the tone that a president uses has a deep influence on a broad range of circumstances. While the focus of both speeches was the ongoing conflict in Europe and what the United States could do to help facilitate its resolution; the tone of the 1917 speech was more idealistic, hopeful and indefinite, and the 1918 speech was more practical, pessimistic and direct. In the 1917 speech, Wilson illustrated his hopefulness on the belief that the warring parties ...

Question 1: Why Cartwright Lumber Company needs cash

Despite the profitability of Cartwright Lumber Company, it still faces cash flow challenges. The financial statements indicate that the company has a low balance in its cash account. Profitability does not necessarily mean the firm has a stable cash flow. The income statements indicate that Cartwright Lumber has been profitable in each of the years from 2001.

Hamas movement has been perceived over the years as an Islamist extremist terrorist movement. This perception has been informed by the mission behind the formation of the movement which is in a nutshell, the obliteration of Israel and the ultimate establishment of a Palestinian state. Besides, the perception derives justification from the religious ideologies such as fundamentalism and radicalization often associated with Islamism and adopted by the Hamas in addition to several terrorist activities that have been carried out by the movement (Pettersen, 2009).

Cornell University, Country in Arial 9 Roxanne Grenier North America Abstract As of 2014, 38 million people worldwide have been driven out of their own homes by internal instabilities, armed conflict, and outbreaks of violence. The Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) alone accounts for 2.8 million internally displaced persons (IDPs). In response, relief-driven charitable practices have consequently created a condition of permanent impermanence, perpetuating the problem of dependency, unemployment, and instability. This forced movement of culturally and geographically heterogeneous groups evokes questions of housing stability: How does migration impact the social, economic, and political standing of the refugees?

Abstract

When an organization has cash inflows and outflows of foreign nature, the cash forecast for every currency will help during the identification of the currency exposures. The format of the estimation should allow the users to determine the balance for every currency and whether there is a growing shortage or extra money over time based on reasonable cash flows. The increasing gaps between the cash inflows and outflows may need hedging, and the cash flows that offset over time represents the issue of timing effectively. The management of foreign exchange transaction can be achieved through the offsetting transactions to ...

Introduction The work of history and historians isn’t a simple one. Historians must find sources, analyze them, think about them and decide which stories are worth telling and which ones should be left in the background or completely ignored. This function which can easily be summed up as representation is the hardest part of the historian’s job and something which has changed a lot in the past few decades. History writing in recent years has changed its focus from a top-down perspective where the decisions of the privileged, powerful connected few are explored and analyzed to the ...

The Fate of Greenland's Vikings by Dale Mackenzie Brown.

In 1721, Hans Egede, a Norwegian missionary discovered that the Norse were no longer inhabiting the two settlements that they had established around 1000 A.D. Since then there has been many debates on the cause of their disappearance and decline. For long, the theories about their disappearance centered around the oral traditions of the Inuits. The Inuit tradition held that the demise of the Norse was due to the contact between the Inuit and the Norse which was often aggressive (Seaver 1996, 119). In recent years however, owing to expanding archaeological findings and other limited documentary evidence there have ...

I. Introduction Researches argued that there was little evidence to accurately determine the early language in England. While the region was inhabited by humans for thousands of years, and that the presence of culture was detected, it was noted that the English language has been only adopted for a comparatively short span of time. History revealed that the English language we have today is a product of the different spoken dialects of the Germanic tribes who immigrated to England sometime in the 5th century. The development of the English language is comparable to a division of historical periods, and ...

Circumstances, where confidentiality agreements are necessary

Nowadays, the intensity of competition among the producers of confectionary is crossing the boundaries of imagination. In order to stay competitive, the businesses have to reduce their overheads, while trying to maintain the appropriate quality standards of their products. These research and development activities require substantial funding, and, in order to safeguard their achievements from being imitated by the competitors, the ultimate contents of products are held in the strictest confidentiality (Hasnas, 2006). Food companies often offer lucrative settlements to those, who have been affected by their products (Maclntyre, 2008). Yet, the majority of such offers have a small, ...

Abstract: In 1492, Christopher Columbus landed in “the New World” and marked the beginnings of its extensive colonization. When European settlers arrived in the Americas, they brought with them their cultural values and began to adapt American land to their needs. Those days started ecological imperialism; “wilderness” of the Indian nature was disturbed. European settlers intervened the setting and brought significant changes in flora and fauna as well as the habitual way of living of Native Americans. This paper reveals the long-term consequences of English ecological imperialism in New England and ecological changes brought by European settlers. The main ...

Canadian French nationalism is a complex issue that has its roots in the settlement of the country by French explorers. It has been a highly emotional issue that has affected the politics of Canada over the years. The eye of the storm is the province of Quebec where 81% of its people spoke French as opposed to the 90% of Canadians who spoke English in the rest of Canada during the early stages of the secessionist movement (Fenwick, 1981). The current Separatist movement has lost power and is no longer the threat to Canadian political and social stability it ...

Fair play in business practices is essential to the maintenance of a self-sustainable corporate environment. Precisely, all the parties involved in any business activity need to embrace ethical principles while following the legal provisions in any commercial venture.

According to Murthy and Blischke (2006), an implied warranty is a contract arising from the operation of the law guaranteeing that the goods to be sold are merchantable and are appropriate for ...

Establishment of Jewish homeland in Palestine Stability of the Middle East remains questionable up to nowadays. An important part of the Middle East conflict is the struggle for the control of Jerusalem between the Jews, Christians and Muslims. In the field of International Politics, it can be considered to be a very deep-rooted conflict. It was considered, and remains to be, one of the most widely- and passionately-debated conflicts in the Middle East. ‘The Arab-Israeli conflict in the modern era is now in its 67th year (1948-2015), and is paralyzed’ (Anderson 2015). In my opinion, it can be explained ...

The concept of “whiteness” is, of course, silly on its face. “Pinkness,” or perhaps, “very light tanness” would be more accurate. Nevertheless, the term is deeply embedded into cultural discourse. “White privilege” is the phrase of the day. “White Man’s Burden” was the public face of the reasoning for British imperialism. White men (no women need apply in those bygone days) not only “could” govern their poor, benighted “colored” brethren better than they could govern themselves, it was an affirmative duty to bring superior culture and civilization to the savages. In the history of the United States the ...

United States has for decades been deeply involved in the Middle East, and particularly in the ongoing conflict between Israel and its various neighbors. This is why there is been a good deal of speculation of late as to how US policy toward Israel during a future Hillary Clinton presidency might differ from (or be similar to) that of the current Obama administration. Since leaving the State Department, Clinton has provided some indication about what her policies would be in the Middle East in general and Israel in particular. Nevertheless, a certain degree of uncertainty still exists. While there ...

The purpose of mediation is to help parties that are in a disagreement come to a solution that minimizes the potential harm from that disagreement. Without mediation processes, many disagreements can lead to hostility or other outcomes that are undesirable for both parties (Winslade & Monk, 2008). As such, understanding the mediation process is an important part of understanding the psychology of conflict, and is useful in a number of different scenarios. In law, mediation is particularly useful as part of the spectrum of alternative dispute resolution, and is used to negotiate various forms of settlements without harming either party ...

Introduction

The Berlin Conference of 1884 to 1885 which is also referred to as the Congo Conference signified a powerful role in the regulation of European colonization as well as free trade in parts of Africa during the period of neo-imperialism.

It is to be noted that colonial powers went into what historians coined as the ‘Scramble for Africa’, where they decided to invade, occupy, divide and colonize the different parts ...

Abstract

Multiculturalism refers to the integration of different cultures to confide to a single national culture or social viewpoint. Thus, multiculturalism is an accommodative social perspective that entails integrating divergent social and cultural practices to a unified accord. With regards to the Australian multiculturalism programs, it would be imperative to conclude that it has had a share of challenges in implementing this policy, but at the same time reaped a lot from this policy. Thus, amidst challenges that come with settling people with diverse interests, Australia has had some gains out of its efforts to integrate people of different social ...
