...I. INTRODUCTION The main instruments of International Humanitarian Law (hereafter referred to as IHL) are the four Geneva Conventions of 12 August 19491 for the protection of war victims. These treaties which are universally accepted, protect the wounded, the sick, prisoners of war and civilians in enemy hands. They also protect medical services personnel such as medical personnel, medical units and establishments, and medical means of transport. As a matter of fact this kind of concern for the humanitarian aspect can be found in our ancient epics like the Mahabharata, where the rules of conduct of war as to the timing of attack and the prohibition attacking the unarmed were strictly laid down. The laws of Manu, a compilation of encyclopedic scope, which the British Professor Duncan M. Derrett a known authority on Hindu Law describes as a text "which constitutes India's greatest achievement in the field of jurisprudence" and regards this work as one of the world's premier compositions in ancient law, more valuable in every sense than Hammurabi and able to hold its own in comparison to the covenant and Priestly codes of Moses2 . Manu, while describing the duties of a King, warns against unusual cruelty even against an enemy in warfare, and has this to say, "fighting in a battle, he should not kill his enemies with weapons that are concealed, barbed, or smeared with poison or whose points blaze with fire. He should not kill anyone who has climbed on a...

...APPEALS PROCESS KENNETH SPAULDING CJS/220 UNIVERSITY OF PHOENIX MAY 7 2015 APPEALS PROCESS An appeal is a right you usually have after a final decision of a court or government agency. If you don’t agree with the decision of the court or agency, you can have the decision reviewed by a higher court or agency, and sometimes a court can review an agency’s decision. Almost all appeals have to be filed in writing. All appeals have to be filed within a certain time, called the appeal period. Sometimes you have to post an appeal bond, of cash or property, within a certain time, to appeal from a lower court to a higher court. A typical appeal in a criminal case is from a conviction following a trial. The defendant will allege to the appellate court that one or more errors occurred in the trial or the process leading up to trial that rendered the trial fundamentally unfair or unconstitutional. The appellate courts determine whether searches and seizures, interrogation practices, and trial procedures are constitutional or not. Thus, the appellate decisions directly affect future conduct by police, prosecutors, and trial judges. Many people complain that defendant are procedurally precluded from raising certain issues on appeal because their lawyer did not object at trial or their appellate attorney did not raise the issue on the initial appeal, and that these procedural bars result in the continued incarceration of people who did not receive a fair trial and possibly even...

...If I was the Chief Marketing Officer at India Cements: The reason for choosing a cement firm (India cements) is that cement is a commodity for which the profit making in a large scale company is fundamentally dependent on its marketing abilities. In India Cements, marketing is the mainstay which primarily governs the profit making capacity of the company. Factors like quality, price, variety in the product, etc., matter but might not play a vital role in gaining an edge over the market. Therefore capturing the cement market is entirely a matter of identifying the need or creating it and then making the product available at ease at the desired time. It's also important that we are able to cater to the quality and quantity demanded from our customer to obtain long term satisfaction thus ensuring loyalty among the customers, dealers and distributors. We need to be able to instill in the minds of them a notion that for us "Customer is truly the king". India Cements - an overview : India cements is the 3rd largest manufacturer of cement in the country and largest producer of cement in South India. They are one of the oldest cement manufacturers in India, which started cement production in the year 1946, at Sankargarh in Tamilnadu. Since then it has setup a total of 9 plants with a capacity to produce about 14 million tons of cement per annum. India cements is the market leader with a market share of 28% in the south and is likely to rise to 35%. The company has access to limestone...

...connectivity, and productivity, they also pose an unprecedented threat to network security guarding, which has literally taken to the airwaves. This paper will deal with vulnerabilities and risks regarding access points (APs) in a wireless network (WLAN) connecting to a wired local area network (LAN) in enterprises. Data for this paper will come from published academic papers, industry publications including white papers and surveys, and industry specialists. It will also include definitions of terms, policy and procedures that affect access points, and current practices regarding rogue APs. A case study will be presented for a fictional enterprise with multiple locations that has standard procedures, policies, and protocols in place, but recent events have questioned their ability to control access points with the discovery of rogue devices hidden in several office locations. Industry warnings about access points span the past thirteen years, and still new articles appear saying similar warnings, with only the solutions evolving with the technology. Suggested solutions will include security literacy regarding APs and their devices and their compliance; security audits to re-evaluate configurations of current hardware and software, inventory of current APs, wireless devices, ports, stations and their...

...January 2013 Prudential Standard APS 112 Capital Adequacy: Standardised Approach to Credit Risk Objective and key requirements of this Prudential Standard This Prudential Standard requires an authorised deposit-taking institution to hold sufficient regulatory capital against credit risk exposures. The key requirements of this Prudential Standard are that an authorised deposit-taking institution: • must apply risk-weights to on-balance sheet assets and off-balance sheet exposures for capital adequacy purposes. Risk-weights are based on credit rating grades or fixed weights broadly aligned with the likelihood of counterparty default; and • may reduce the credit risk capital requirement for on-balance sheet assets and off-balance sheet exposures where the asset or exposure is secured against eligible collateral, where the authorised deposit-taking institution has obtained direct, irrevocable and unconditional credit protection in the form of a guarantee from an eligible guarantor, mortgage insurance from an acceptable lenders mortgage insurer, a credit derivative from a protection provider or where there are eligible netting arrangements in place.
