...L/C Procedures for Import & Export with Practical Exercise Bangladesh is a developing country. The main growing sectors and industries in Bangladesh are Ready Made Garments, Pharmaceuticals, Leather, Ceramics, Plastics, Steel, Shipbuilding and many others. Most of the industries irrespective of their categories are depended on imported raw materials directly or indirectly in addition to local procurement. Besides, the export oriented industries have been exporting their finished goods throughout the world. Exports and Imports involve a lot of technicalities because this takes place between two countries, under different situations, rules and regulations and culture.

...deteriorated en- route the transfer. One can argue that the patient was not stabilized enough for a transfer in the first place and the physician made a bad call transferring him. In any case the fact that the transfer was for an ‘in-patient’ in a ‘medically stable condition’ the hospital had no further EMTALA obligation as EMTALA does not control the transfer of medically stabilized patients. Was the transfer done in an appropriate manner? The responsibility to ensure that the statutes requirement are followed in regard to the transfer process, is placed firmly on the shoulders of the transferring hospital and the transferring physician who by law, has the responsibility of selecting the most appropriate means of transport to include qualified personnel and transport equipment2 . In this case, the physician appointed to accompany the patient during transfer administered a treatment not consistent with the standard of care which lead to a worsening of the patient’s condition. It is a valid argument that the physician was not a ‘qualified medical personnel’ to accompany this patient during the transfer, and this violate EMTALA. But again as mentioned before, the patient was assumed to be in a stabilized condition before the transfer and as an inpatient, hospital had no EMTALA obligation during the transfer. There is a possibility for a malpractice suit against the Doctor administering the Glucagon and a possible civil suit against the hospital. When did the Hospital’s EMTALA obligation...

...2. Kee has similarities with the Goddess of Life archetype in the way that her overall importance and symbol is the womb. Kee is pregnant in a world that can’t reproduce; this makes her extremely valuable, special, and important. She is also a culture bringer in the sense that she is bringing a new, very rare, child into the world that could potentially save the human race from extinction. 3. Some of the steps we witness from Campbell’s Monomyth include: The call to adventure when Theo is approached by Julian to get the transport papers. Refusal of the call when Theo says no he won’t help. Theo crosses the field of adventure when he asks his cousin for the transport papers and agrees to escort Kee. The belly of the whale, the series of tasks, and the meeting of the goddess all revolve around Julian. The ultimate boon is when Kee is delivered to the Human Project Boat, completing the quest. 4. Some cultural truths that we see in this movie include: Fears of war, illegal immigrants, death/the end of the human race that our lifestyles will effect our bodies (chemicals, over-processed food, pollution, prescription and recreational drugs), terrorism, that the government is either not working for us, hurting people, or will violate our freedoms, that we’re not prepared for the future. 5. A similar creation myth to this movie is Out of the Blue. Kee doesn’t know who the father of her child is and doesn’t even know how she became pregnant in the first place. Sky Woman has a husband...

...Shortly after dropping out of the Trotskyist movement in 1978, I embarked on a systematic reading project of the world?s greatest novels. Since I had made the decision to begin writing fiction myself, I wanted to learn the craft from the masters. Additionally, I wanted a change of pace from the hard-core Marxist literature I had been reading for 11 years. (Within two years, however, I had returned to radical politics, largely under the impetus of the Central American revolution.) I soon discovered that some of these masterpieces left me cold, including those written by Henry James, Joseph Conrad and especially Jane Austen. Although I would never deny that they were great writers, their words did not resonate with me. After reading 50 or so pages of ?Pride and Prejudice,? I found myself wondering what all the hype was about. I was left cold by an endless round of country balls, dinner parties and arch dialogue that always sounded self-conscious and somewhat artificial. To illustrate: Elizabeth Bennett, the major character who is based on Jane Austen herself, is in one of her frequent 'cutting' exercises with Fitzwilliam D?Arcy--reminiscent of an old Katherine Hepburn and Spencer Tracy movie. Like Hepburn and Tracy, these two spend most of their time hating each other until they finally discover that they really are in love. (I myself had a different take on the matter. In my experience, people generally start off in love and then discover that they really hate each...

He encouraged his believers to protect them self against white force by any method they could. He also became a leader of the Nation of Islam. George Wallace George C. Wallace was a democrat elected on as a governor of Alabama. He also ran as president in united stated before. George C. Wallace was important in the Civil Right because of his refusal for guards unit to protect the marchers. He was commanded to put an army of units to the marchers but he refused to do so putting an excuse saying that the state didn?t had enough resources to do that. He then became one of the most ignorance and pathetic person in order to defend the people during segregation. James Meredith James Meredith was an American civil rights activist who was recognized from the people because of his refusal to the university. He was a student at the University of Mississippi when he was going to go in they gave him the refusal to go in. Large campus riots that left two people dead. Meredith was admitted the college under the assurance of government marshals. Who had the greatest impact on civil rights and why? In my opinion I will say Rosa parks because for her bravery the boycott ended transportation discrimination also this gave a lot of people attention for what she did. She also turned into a symbol of ending segregation maybe if her strong self would have never done this...

...employment contract or written direction from the CEO/President. In at will employment either the Company or the employee can terminate the employment relationship at any time, with or without cause, with or without notice. This does not mean that employers can arbitrarily fire employees without good faith communication, fairness, and non-discriminatory practices. In fact, courts are increasingly finding for employees in litigation. Employers must demonstrate a good faith effort to correct the employee's performance or the other issues that led to employment termination. Within the at will employment law the five public policy exceptions include the following. The refusal to participate in illegal activity, the employee’s refusal to forsake the performance of an important public duty or obligation, the employee’s refusal to forego the exercise of a job-related legal right or privilege, the employee’s “whistleblowing” activity or other conduct exposing the employers wrongdoing, and the employee’s performance of an act that public policy would encourage under circumstances where retaliatory discharge is supported by evidence of employers bad faith, malice, or retaliation. Summary of the facts: In the case of Martin Marietta v. Lorenz, Lorenz is suing over the claim of wrongful discharge. Lorenz held a degree in advanced engineering and had at the time of employment complete all of the necessary work for a doctorate in metallurgy except his thesis. Prior to his employment with...

...Carriage of Good by land The role of transport is very important in the development of commerce. It facilitates the movement of goods and labour. So the importance of the study of law relating to contract of carriage of goods is great. The carriage of goods may take place either by land or by sea or by air.

...To what extent did Napoleonic rule have a positive impact on the Italian Peninsula? Napoleon had little impact on the Italian peninsula despite little changing for the poor, some people suffering and that for many in the Italian peninsula after napoleon had gone many of the states were ruled much like it was before napoleon. Although he did bring positives to the Italian peninsula such as the introduction on how education, trade and transport should be done. He brought in the idea of nationalism to the people and changed how some states were run post-napoleon. When Napoleon gained control of Italy he drastically redrew the borders bringing people from what would have been different kingdoms into one area, he further united the population by encouraging trade by standardising measurements and scrapping internal customs barriers as well as improving transport, safety and local governments all this bring wealth to traders and financial growth to many in urban areas. As well as all this he reformed the education system moving away from the old system controlled by the church. Overall he had given a sense of unity and nationalism and that a unified Italy would benefit them greatly in physiologically and financially. The church suffered badly under Napoleons rule with their power and influence greatly reduced by removing them from being in charge of education where they would be taught how the church would want them to think instead they were taught to have their own ideas.

...otherwise of the maritime industry which is arguably the most ancient yet effective means of trade (Autry, 2001). In this global trade, the ports play the most significant roles as the point of entry for cargoes. It will therefore be appropriate to describe the ports as the center point of world trade (Awoletu, 2000) Nigerian seaports are perhaps one of the very few in the world that are majorly service ports. The port industry has over the year been responsible for over 90% of the physical carriage of Nigeria's external trade (Badejo, 2002). The importance of this mode of transportation derives not only from its fundamental overriding economics and untapped marketing, but also from the lack of a more efficient alternative to maritime transport in the carriage of the nation's bulky external trade items. Apapa port, which is the focus of this write-up, is Nigeria's most important and largest port. It contains a number of wharfs and ranges of commodities are handled at this port. These include: Wheat, Cement, Oil and Petroleum products, Fish, Dry Cargo and general Containers. Nigeria depends mostly on...

...© Andrew Le Sueur 2004, a.lesueur@bham.ac.uk The rise and ruin of unreasonableness? Andrew Le Sueur Barber Professor of Jurisprudence, The University of Birmingham 1. Introduction Lest we forget what was actually said in 1948, Lord Greene stated:[1] It is true to say that, if a decision on a competent matter is so unreasonable that no reasonable authority could ever have come to it, then the courts can interfere. That, I think, is quite right; but to prove a case of that kind would require something overwhelming … It is not what the court considers unreasonable, a different thing altogether. If it is what the court considers unreasonable, the court may very well have different views to that of a local authority on matters of high public policy of this kind. Some courts might think that no children ought to be admitted on Sundays at all, some courts might think the reverse, and all over the country I have no doubt on a thing of that sort honest and sincere people hold different views. The effect of the legislation is not to set up the court as an arbiter of the correctness of one view over another. It is the local authority that are set in that position and, provided they act, as they have acted, within the four corners of their jurisdiction, this court, in my opinion, cannot interfere. Put like this, unreasonableness as a ground of review is a straightforward concept, based on sound constitutional principles and a useful longstop...

The theory basically goes like the Central bank generates money to buy bonds from financial institutions who inturn will keep the rate on interest low so that more and more people are attracted to spend money instead of saving them and by providing financial help to businessess so that then can raise more job opportunities.(BBC News, 2015) means SME’s in Europe are categorised into micro, small and medium sized business, where each category has its own definition in terms of number of employees and annual maximum turnover. A micro organisation is any business that has one to ten employees and does not exceed its annual turnover of 2 million. The next category are small enterprises, here the organisation employs between ten to fifty people and has a turnover of less than 10 million. The next...

...Disabled passengers from BEAT 'The Barrier-Free Environment and Accessible Transport Group' protested against the airline for its refusal to fly passengers who were completely immobile.[12] The protesters, headed by the group's co-ordinator Christine Lee, asserted that the disabled were discriminated against when booking AirAsia tickets online, where an icon would appear on the website asking if the ticket purchaser would require “special assistance”. According to Lee, the passenger clicked 'yes', then they would not be able to proceed with the booking. Lee also said that AirAsia charged RM12 for renting out a wheelchair, which a passenger could use to go from the ticketing counter to the departure hall. When interviewed by Malaysia's Daily Express, AirAsia Chief Executive Officer Datuk Tony Fernandes denied that the low cost airline turned away wheelchair using passengers. He said, the airline's ground staff take the disabled to the aircraft and physically carry them onboard, "We do not even charge for this service and there is certainly no discrimination against them," he claimed.[13] AirAsia's 'Service Fees' post a charge of RM12 Malaysian Ringgit [14] for wheelchair service fees. Several consumerist groups have rallied behind the disabled and wheelchair-using travellers, lobbying to bring about changes in Malaysia's anti-discrimination legislation; among them the 'Fly Air Asia? Not Me' website [15] utilizes viral advertising to pressure legislators. In 2007 the activist group...
