...After months of negotiations in Switzerland between the Islamic Republic of Iran and P5+1 (the permanent members of the United Nations Security Council– the United Kingdom, Russia, France, the United States and China plus Germany) along with the European Union, together they came up with an agreement to thwart the Iran Nuclear Programme. The document was published by the U.S. Department of State titled Parameters for a Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action Regarding the Islamic Republic of Iran's Nuclear Program. The agreement itself is very controversial, understandably so however because the agreement is 159 pages in it’s entirety and certainly becomes quite technical very fast. Through this essay I will be reviewing the the details and the politics surrounding the Nuclear Treaty with Iran and asserting my position on it. To review, the deal outlines what measures will specifically be made to prevent Iran from making a nuclear bomb and to avoid a war; and to protect potentially many thousands of lives and dollars. Some of the pros of this agreement are that firstly, the deal will keep Iran from producing enough material (enriched uranium, centrifuges, and plutonium) for a nuclear weapon for at least the next 10 years, and impose the watchful eye of the IAEA (the International Atomic Energy Agency) to provide inspections of Iranian facilities, including their military sites. It also provides a chance to lessen international tensions between Iran and the US, who loving refer the...

...forms of youth culture identity – streaking and disco. The 1970s began with the Beatles releasing Let It Be, which would be their last album, the Kent State shooting involving the death of the four students, the conviction of Charles Mansion for the murder of actress Sharon Tate, and the conviction of American soldiers for killing entire towns of Vietnamese villagers. This action marked the beginning of the end for America’s support of the American soldier. The Vietnam War, also known as the Second Indochina War lasted between 1959 and 1975, ending with the fall of Saigon. This war or police action as some Americans referred to the `war would cost the American taxpayer billions of dollars and countless lives. Vietnam, like Korea, stemmed from America’s policy of containment, which was a product of the Cold War era. The fall of Saigon also sealed the fate for Vietnam’s neighbors. Cambodia’s government, which was supported by western...

...Bibliographic Essay on African American History Introduction In the essay “On the Evolution of Scholarship in Afro- American History” the eminent historian John Hope Franklin declared “Every generation has the opportunity to write its own history, and indeed it is obliged to do so.”1 The social and political revolutions of 1960s have made fulfilling such a responsibility less daunting than ever. Invaluable references, including Darlene Clark Hine, ed. Black Women in America: An Historical Encyclopedia 2nd ed.

...Ellen Moore Living And Working In Korea Management Essay In recent years, globalization has accelerated the emergence of many global companies that operate across geographical borders and require high levels of cross-national interdependence and cross-border flow of products, technology, capital and people. Businesses are expanding internationally through alliances and joint ventures, as well as mergers and acquisitions. This driving force has resulted in a growing number of people seeking international careers outside of their home countries. Ellen Moore, an experienced systems consultant who worked for Systems Consulting Group (SCG), a unit of Western Systems Inc. (WSI), was sent to Korea to manage a project involving a team of North American and Korean consultants. WSI newly entered the Korean market in 1990 through forming a joint venture (JVI) with Korean Conglomerate Inc. (KCI). Ellen was selected based on her strong background in project management, her creativity and technical abilities. She also had successful international experience working in Bahrain before, which may be helpful to her journey working in Korea, a new different foreign country. Ellen Moore- the international manager For Ellen, an expatriate manager who has limited knowledge of Korea and did not obtain any training from SCG prior to her arrival in Korea, living in Korea produced constant and unexpected challenges to the ways of perceiving, acting and valuing things, making it difficult for her to...

...have for granted, not realizing the long term consequences of their actions. How often does one finish everything that is on his/her plate? Many consumers often order more than they can eat. One’s eyes are bigger than his/her stomach. People will order multiple appetizing items from menus assuming they can finish it. On the contrary, they will eat about half of what is served, leaving the rest behind. Frequently, restaurants serve larger portions than the average person can eat. The American attitude is wanting beyond what is needed, the “Super-Size effect.” If one were to take into consideration the amount of food that is wasted in this country versus the amount that is needed throughout the rest of the world, anyone with a right mind set can see that Americans waste food. In contrast, there are starving masses in other parts of the world such as in numerous third world countries. There are people dying from starvation and lack of nutrients because of the absence of a sufficient food source, while contemporary Americans are dying from obesity related diseases. Therefore, our generation is taking the never ending food supply for granted. The voter turnout for the last presidential election in 2008 was 56.8%. (http://www.infoplease.com/ipa/A0781453.html) This can be seen as one example of how our generation takes our freedom and liberties for granted. Our nation has a constitution and the Bill of...

...CARIN-ISABEL KNOOP DAVID KIRON AmorePacific: From Local to Global Beauty In 2005, Suh Kyung-Bae, President and CEO of South Korean cosmetics company AmorePacific, surveyed a map in his office in downtown Seoul: We have held off major multinational players, the L’Oréals and Estée Lauders, in Korea and are competing successfully with them around the world. We went to France, the Mecca of beauty products, and developed the #4 fragrance in that country, Lolita Lempicka. In China, our cosmetics line is sold in more than 100 department stores in 70 cities and business is finally growing. And we have opened a flagship spa in New York that is doing very well. For 2004, AmorePacific reported 3,300 employees and sales of 1,272 billion Korean Won (KRW), equivalent to US$1,111 million. Cosmetics and toiletries generated four-fifths of sales (and green tea and health care the rest), placing the company among the top 30 worldwide. AmorePacific held a share of more than 30% of the Korean market for cosmetics, versus 8% for its leading local competitor, LG Household and Health Care, and 4% for L’Oréal, the world’s largest beauty products company and the leading multinational competitor in Korea.1 But although AmorePacific’s share of the Korean market had reached record levels and its overall operating margins of 15%+ ranked among the highest in the sector, its sales fell by 5% from 2003 to 2004—and its operating income by 7%—mostly because of the contraction and continued restructuring...

Modern archaeological studies provide evidence of still more ancient origins in a culture that flourished between 2500 and 2000 B.C. in what is now central China and the lower Huang He ( orYellow River) Valley of north China. Centuries of migration, amalgamation, and development brought about a distinctive system of writing, philosophy, art, and political organization that came to be recognizable as Chinese civilization. What makes the civilization unique in world history is its continuity through over 4,000 years to the...

...background Today, all British citizens over the age of eighteen share a fundamental human right: the right to vote and to have a voice in the democratic process. But this right is only the result of a hard fought battle. The suffrage campaigners of the nineteenth and early twentieth century struggled against opposition from both parliament and the general public to eventually gain the vote for the entire British population in 1928. ------------------------------------------------- Who took part in the campaign? The first women's suffrage bill came before parliament in 1870. Soon after its defeat, in 1897, various local and national suffrage organisations came together under the banner of the National Union of Women's Suffrage Societies (NUWSS) specifically to campaign for the vote for women on the same terms 'it is or may be granted to men'. The NUWSS was constitutional in its approach, preferring to lobby parliament with petitions and hold public meetings. In contrast, the Women's Social and Political Union (WSPU), formed in 1903, took a more militant view. Almost immediately, it characterised its campaign with violent and disruptive actions and events. Together, these two organisations dominated the campaign for women's suffrage and were run by key figures such as the Pankhurstsand Millicent Fawcett. However, there were other organisations prominent in the campaign, including the Women's Freedom League (WFL). These groups were often splinter groups of the two main organisations...

There were 945 girls per 1000 boys in 1991, 927 in 2001 and only 914 in 2011. India’s increasing number of rich class seems to have increased the practice of sex selection in the new technology promoted by private health sector. The new technology has aggravated the social problem of bias against girl child and continues to have caused the drastic reduction in the proportion of female children. This article focuses on appeal to government and civil society for immediate action to eliminate sex selection. The article accounts a lesson sharing experience for effective public policy responses to crisis similarly faced in the country.
