...Robots to paint nails at Tokyo Expo Technology Thursday 7 November 2013 - 9:08am Japan's machine maker Toyo Riki displays a nail decoration robot 'Robo Nailist' which picks brushes, colours with nail gel and decorates with Swarovski crystals for a demonstration at the annual Internatinal Robot Exhibition in Tokyo. Picture: Getty Images TOKYO - Pneumatic muscle suits and a walking stick that behaves like a guide dog competed for attention with an industrial robot that can paint fingernails at a huge expo in Tokyo. In a country where a quarter of the 128-million population is aged over 65, innovations that can make life easier for the elderly or their caregivers are potentially big business and the subject of a lot of research. A "muscle suit" that gives extra power to a carer to help them lift a bed-bound patient was one of the star attractions at the International Robot Exhibition in Tokyo, which runs until Saturday. Worn like a backpack, the device is powered by compressed air and takes some of the strain out of lifting an elderly or disabled person by giving extra muscle-power to the back and hips. The machine, developed by Tokyo University of Science and a nursing care company, is activated by a tube in the wearer's mouth, adding lift when the operator breathes in. Exhaling switches the power off. "It feels like you're using about half the power to lift people," said caregiver Norikatsu Kimura, who took part in a trial at elderly care firm Asahi Sun Clean. "The...

Internatinal Marketing Case Study The case study below exemplifies a contrast between two working cultures: Canadian and Taiwanese. Read the text and the list of possible actions. Then make recommendations as to what the Canadian should do choosing from the list below, ranking them in order of priority, adding any other actions you think necessary. Dave Thompson is a Canadian working for a ‘Baby Bell’ company which owns shares in a Taiwanese mobile phone company. They have recently acquired a license to operate in this crowded and competitive market. Dave has been posted to Taiwan on a three-year contract. He now has been living there for three months. He has good experience of the mobile phone business, both technically and strategically, and was previously involved in the start-up of a new mobile company in Lithuania. He believes he has the opportunity to make the new company a great success by adopting the management style of his home company: open, innovative, confident and aggressive. In Taiwan he faces a tradition based on Chinese hierarchies and family-run businesses. The Taiwanese company Dave works for belongs to one of these families, but the current generation sees the advantages of a western approach in what is for them a new kind of business. So they back his efforts to ‘turn the company around’. Dave’s biggest problem is one of time: he wants to get on with building up a western-style...

...equality writes, “we thought that we wished to be sent to the home of scholars when our time would come.”(19). Equality at the time only wanted to help his brothers and he liked doing science and learning new things. However, because the government does not like him, they use their power to punish him by making him a street sweeper. The second piece of supporting evidence is that making it so that men can not talk to women. This is proved by equality when he states, “it is a transgression for men to speak to women.”(17). The fact that the government is keeping them from talking is another way of the government keeping them down. The last piece of supporting evidence is that the government does not let people have ideas. This is proved when internatinal 1-5537 claims, “what is not done collectively cannot be good.”(81). This shows that the government does not want people to have ideas even if those ideas can benefit humanity. That is how the government making equality a street sweeper, making it so men can’t talk without reason, and not letting people have ideas help support the idea that the government should absolutely not be allowed to control an...

...Nguyen Duy Tung 4453554 Group B Tutorial 5 1. Discuss the trade-off between locating manufacturing operations in countries with relatively low wages versus manufacturing in relatively high-wage countries like Singapore or Australia. * The relative wage lies between the ratio of the productivities in each industry. * The domestic country is 6/1 = 6 times as productive in cheese production, but only 3/2 = 1.5 times as productive in wine production. * The domestic country has a wage rate 3 times as high as that in the foreign country. * These relationships imply that both countries have a cost advantage in production. * The cost of high wages can be offset by high productivity. * The cost of low productivity can be offset by low wages. * Because foreign workers have a wage that is only 1/3 the wage of domestic workers, they are able to attain a cost advantage (in wine production), despite low productivity. * Because domestic workers have a productivity that is 6 times that of foreign workers (in cheese production), they are able to attain a cost advantage, despite high wages. 2. In terms of warehousing design, give examples of trade-offs involving space, labour, and the use of automation. Why is it important to undestand these trade-offs? * One key to effective design of warehouse processes is the relative dominance between picking and storage activities because these two warehousing functions typically have opposing requirements.

The appropriate cross exchange rate should be 1 Canadian dollar = 3 New Zealand dollars. Thus, the actual value of the Canadian dollars in terms of New Zealand dollars is more than what it should be. One could obtain Canadian dollars with U.S. dollars, sell the Canadian dollars for New Zealand dollars and then exchange New Zealand dollars for U.S. dollars. With $1,000,000, this strategy would generate $1,006,667 thereby representing a profit of $6,667.

...Running head: ESSAY 6.1: THE STORY OF AN HOUR Essay 6.1: The Story of an Hour Jeremy Todd Macy ITT Technical Institute Essay 6.1: The Story of an Hour Freedom!!! Liberation!!! The idea of living your life for yourself, not others; it is something that we all dream of at some point in our lives, but how many of us actually achieve that? Whether we feel trapped in a job that we hate, a bad friendship, or a bad marriage, there is something inside us that yearns to be free. We long for that weight to be taken off of our shoulders. Kate Chopin’s The Story of an Hour takes us through these emotions, only to find out at the end that these emotions are fleeting, and then reality sets in. What will be discussed in this paper is the plot of the story and those feelings that are experienced, Kate Chopin’s life experiences and how that experience influenced this story, as well as my reaction to the story. The story starts off with Mrs. Mallard( we don’t know her first name) being told some distressing news. Josephine, her sister, is trying to relay this horrible news in the most delicate matter. Mrs. Mallard has severe heart problems, although she is young. Brentley, her husband, was killed in a train accident. She weeps, with “sudden, wild abandonment”, at the news (Woodlief, Study Text). She then sinks into an armchair, and begins to ponder the future. The sky opens up, showing the calming blue. Her horizons seem to broaden, she gets a feeling of starting over, fresh. She is still...
