...Natural Rubber Company Firestone and Liberia: Hand in Hand Firestone Natural Rubber Company is an affiliate of the Firestone Tire and Rubber Company founded in 1926. The company is headquartered in Indianapolis, and it operates one of the largest rubber plantations in the world in Liberia, Africa. “The Republic of Liberia, on the coast of West Africa, has a population of about 3.5 million. Despite its natural wealth in gems, rubber and timber, it is one of the world’s poorest countries, with an 85 percent unemployment rate and 60 percent of the population under 25 years old.” By the 1920’s and 1930’s, Firestone’s main focus was building power plants, factories, houses, planting trees and hundreds of miles of roads in order to employ thousands of Liberians. Firestone Liberia contributed to the Allied effort during World War II by supplying rubber to the military. In 1926, according to Firestone Natural Rubber company main page, “Firestone leased 1,600 miles of jungle in Liberia for its location, soil and climatic conditions with the goal of producing its own natural rubber.” Now, Liberia is the centerpiece to the world’s largest natural rubber operation. Firestone is trying to rebuild the country after 14 years of civil strife by supporting the community. In 1976, Firestone and the Liberian government resigned a concession agreement in order for the company to continue operation in Liberia. According to the article “Firestone Natural Rubber On Last Leg of...

...Party balloons are mostly made of a natural latex tapped from rubber trees, and can be filled with air, helium, water, or any other suitable liquid or gas. The rubber's elasticity makes the volume adjustable. As shown in the photo to the right, they can come in different colors like the rainbow such as red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, etc. Filling the balloon with air can be done with the mouth, a manual or electric inflater (such as a hand pump), or with a source of compressed gas. When rubber or plastic balloons are filled with helium so that they float, they typically retain their buoyancy for only a day or so, sometimes longer. The enclosed helium atoms escape through small pores in the latex which are larger than the helium atoms. Balloons filled with air usually hold their size and shape much longer, sometimes for up to a week. Even a perfect rubber balloon eventually loses gas to the outside. The process by which a substance or solute migrates from a region of high concentration, through a barrier or membrane, to a region of lower concentration is called diffusion. The inside of balloons can be treated with a special gel (for instance, the polymer solution sold under the "Hi Float" brand) which coats the inside of the balloon to reduce the helium leakage, thus increasing float time to a week or longer. Animal-shaped balloons Beginning in the late 1970s, some more expensive (and longer-lasting) foil balloons made of thin, unstretchable, less permeable metallised...

...In this discussion I will give a little insight about what global operations management is, give examples of companies that are approaching global operations management, explain why it has become important for companies to become competitive in the global business environment, and what investments and operations management and other countries will affect the way companies in the United States operate. Global operations management is about how multinational companies expand their business on a global scale, how they operate in those countries and what operation strategies are used in order to be successful. There are a few issues that need to be considered when going global which are: Global Sourcing, Global Manufacturing and Global Distribution. An example of a company that is taking the global approach is Netflix. Back in September of 2009, Reed Hastings launched his company in Canada and made hints about continuing and international expansion for 2011. Although he has the means to do so, they will not be as easy as many may think. But it is not all big companies that are taking the global approach. Mary Domenico and Philip Chigos are taking the global approach to building a children's pajama business and having their garments made in China. Technology has made it very easy for these two individuals to make the dream possible. 1. Why has it become so important for companies to become competitive in the global business environment?

...This case describes a decision facing the officers of the Solidarity Fund, a large pension fund operated by the Quebec Federation of Labor (QFL). The QFL had founded the Fund to provide members of its affiliated unions and others access to professionally managed retirement accounts. It also sought to create job growth in the province of Quebec and to support companies with good working conditions, positive relations with local communities, and a commitment to environmental responsibility. The dilemma concerned what the Fund should do about its investments in Gildan Activewear, a Quebec-based textile company. Human rights activists and investigative journalists had charged that Gildan’s workers in Honduras earned less than a living wage, worked long shifts, had excessively high production quotas, and breathed air filled with fabric dust. Just a few months later, a labor rights group issued a report claiming Gildan had fired Honduran workers who had tried to organize a union. These charges presented the Fund, which owned 14 percent of Gildan, with a difficult dilemma. The textile company had been an excellent investment; its stock had risen in value from just over $2 per share when the fund first invested to nearly $12. However, if the allegations were true, the company’s practices would run counter to the basic values of the Fund. Should the pension fund try to influence Gildan’s conduct? Should it sell its shares in protest? Or should it do neither? Kes ini menerangkan keputusan...

...Word Processing Learn to type. The ultimate limitation of any word processor is the speed at which you enter data; hence, the ability to type quickly is invaluable. Learning how to type is far from an insurmountable problem, especially with the availability of computer-based typing programs. As little as a half hour a day for a couple of weeks will have you up to speed, and if you do any significant amount of writing at all, the investment will pay off many times. ------------------------------------------------- Write now, but edit later. You write a sentence, then change it, and change it again, and one hour later, you have produced a single paragraph. It happens to the best of writers – you stare at a blank screen and flashing cursor and are unable to write. The best solution is to brainstorm and write down anything that pops into your head, and to keep on writing. Do not worry about typos or spelling errors because you can fix them later. Above all, resist the temptation to edit continually the few words you have written because over-editing will drain the life out of what you are writing. The important thing is to get your ideas on paper. Delete with caution. It’s all too easy to delete a paragraph, and then realize five minutes later that you need it back. Hence, instead of deleting a large block of text, move it to the end of a document or writing it to another file, so that you can restore the text if you change your mind. A related practice is to remain in the...

Why do health care workers continue to be put at risk for latex exposures. Loiselle, Profetto-McGrath, Polit and Beck (2004) state “Nurses are increasingly engaged in disciplined studies that benefit the profession and its patients” (p. 5). In other words, as nurses and with their numbers, why are they not coming together to address the issue of latex allergy.

...CHAPTER II REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE AND RELATED STUDIES Related Literature Adhesive is any substance that is capable of holding materials together in a functional manner by surface attachment that resists separation. “Adhesive” as a general term includes cement, mucilage, glue, and paste—terms that are often used interchangeably for any organic material that forms an adhesive bond. Inorganic substances such as portland cement also can be considered adhesives, in the sense that they hold objects such as bricks and beams together through surface attachment, but this article is limited to a discussion of organic adhesives, both natural and synthetic. (http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/5823/adhesive) Fish glue is often made by heating the skin or bones of fish in water. It can also be made from part of the fish’s air bladder which, in the case of glue made from sturgeon, is called isinglass. Adhesives made from fish, as well as hide glue made from other animals, were sometimes used in ancient Egypt. They are still used in art, for shoe and furniture repair, and to preserve old manuscripts. Hide glue is typically manufactured from the skin of non-oily fish. During medieval times in Europe, fish glue was often used to repair animal-based sheets called parchments, which were used for writing. It was also used in painting materials by some artists in China. Paintings and drawings were often coating with fish glue in the 1800s. While the glue by itself is typically brittle...
