...Chapter 3: Medical Information Systems (Pg.89-91) Case Study Abstract Maggie Pressman, Paul Goldberg, and Steve Youngblood are equal partners in their own consulting business, which specializes in designing and installing computer-based information systems for physicians. Dr. Houser contacted Paul and asked if his consulting firm would be interested in submitting a proposal to upgrade the information system for the entire regional medical practice. The project included integrating the six offices and two pharmacies into one system; the physicians will eventually hire an information systems person to oversee the operation of the system. Dr. Houser wanted Paul’s firm to do it, rather than other large consulting firms, which had prepared a request for proposal with the help of the organization’s purchasing manager. However, the divergence existed among Paul’s group. Paul was enthusiastic about the opportunity, while Maggie moaned that she couldn’t spend any time helping with the proposal, and Steve said this project was too big to do for them. Significant Learning Points 1. Sometimes organizations identify several or many needs but have limited funds and people available to pursue potential projects to address all of those needs. In this case, the three partners must go through a decision-making process to prioritize and selected the project that would result in the greatest overall benefit. 2.

...Introduction The pure origin of law was founded on the rudimentary platform of customs, or what H. L. A. Hart describes it as “rules of obligation”. It forms the essence of the framework of order within a society. He stated the conditions required for the existence and effective implication of an “obligation” in a society would be the introduction of constrictions on the actions of its citizens and those who oppose the idea of it constitutes the minority of the population. This would effectively conjure social pressure for people to adhere to the rules. This has worked well in primitive societies. However, home to many societies bearing differing culture and religious practices, the sources of law of a modern nation does not simply come from the amalgamation of legally binding customs from respective societies as a solitary and direct source. By far, the law has been compounded, overruled, refined and developed over past centuries under the influences of historical, economical and social events. As such, the sources of law in a developed nation of UK today would involve common law and statutes as the leading sources, supplemented by delegated legislation, academic doctrines, customs, constitution, transnational and European Law. The Ius Commune In 1066, William the conqueror emerged victorious in the Battle of Hastings and became King of England. He unified counties with disparate customary practices into a national legal system, giving birth to common law. The word “common”...

Ed. Jay Parini. New York: Charles Scribner's Sons, 2009. From Scribner Writers Series.Document Type: Biography, Critical essay[Image Omitted: ]Table of Contents:Biographical EssayFurther ReadingsWorks In 2007, visitors encountering Hari Kunzru's website for the first time might have been a little surprised. Those searching for more information about this British author would have come across an old school photograph of a small boy aged perhaps five or six years old. A few lines of curt white typeface gave a few brief details: his current age, the fact that he was born in London in 1969, and, perhaps surprisingly, his blood group (HbAD) and a hyperlink to his genotype (human). Kunzru is joking, here, about the contemporary thirst for biographical details about writers. As he puts it, nowadays, "British journalists seem more interested in your biography or your publishing deal--the British press is interested in writers, but it isn't interested in writing" (Litt, 2004). The starkly playful nature of Kunzru's 2007 website poked fun both...

...Crown Creative Co - challenging the future( Introduction Fusahiko Yoshino, the young Senior Managing Director of Crown Creative, glanced at his watch. It was a cold winter morning and he was in a hurry for his new office in Chiyoda-ku where the best shops for sports wear in Tokyo can be found. He was going to miss the ski season this year and this made him a little angry. Until he has accepted the management of the company from his father – the old Takiyoshi Yoshino, he was a "cool" guy exploring the fashion world, a person whose mission was to keep abreast of the ever-changing fads of Tokyo. "The people in the streets are very creative and we have to be even more," Fusahiko thought while entering the office. He was still wondering whether to take the risk of launching his own newly designed brand or to rely on the world known fame of Kangol. Company background The history of Crown Creative Co. started in 1981, when Crown Fancy Goods Co. Ltd was established by Tokiyoshi Yoshino. Crown was set up to design, produce, sell and distribute stationery and plastic products. The company soon expanded its operation due to orders placed by Coca Cola for long-term supply of stationery. This first success was caused not only by the company’s capability to meet high quality requirements of its clients but also to the negotiation skills of Takiyoshi who managed to strike several mutually beneficial licensing contracts. That’s why he decided to establish his own licensing...

The basis for this research paper is the postcolonial theories of Edward Said, Fanon and Homi K. Bhabha. The aim is to question simply and sardonically the human cost of empire building, moreover it is discussed how the people in a totally alien culture are faced with different cultural predicaments, dilemmas as well as contradictions threatening their identity. Identity is supposed to be stable, while as this novel indicates, it is more of glocal identity which is at risk due to the cultural conflicts, as a result of which identity and ethnicity are subjected to change for the benefit of the hegemony. In line with Edward Said’s: “the East writes back” it is shown how this novel is a reaction to the discourse of colonization from the Pakistani side (which stands for the East)...
