...Developing countries seeking to build their economy commonly look to attracting multi-national corporations (MNCs) through low cost labor and lucrative tax incentives plans in the hopes of creating a mutually benefiting relationship between both parties. However bringing in these outside businesses poses a legitimate threat to elite special interest groups already existing and thriving in the current economic state. MNCs must due their due diligence when selecting a potential host country and then determine the best strategy to deal with these groups in order to mitigate as much risk as possible.

...Off the Balance Sheet Robert W Tully Keiser University Abstract This paper briefly identifies what VIEs are and the purpose of FASB Statements 166 and 167. As with any freedom there is also responsibility, when this responsibility is neglected, authority must intervene. Off the Balance Sheet Thank you for reading this research paper on off balance sheet arrangement, variable interest entities, and noncontrolling interest. The author will attempt to present this paper in his own words to demonstrate an understanding of the material and keep it simple enough for a reader with little financial background to easily understand the material. In the recent past, off balance sheet arrangements have received a great deal of attention due to the well know fraud committed by the company Enron. This paper is not aimed at dissecting the Enron case and will be mentioned infrequently as possible. What is important is to understand the purpose of variable interest entities are, why the arrangements are important, and how they are presented on the financial statements. The simplest way to explain the concept of a VIE is to use a petroleum company as an example. For ease of this example I will use the X as the company name. X Company generates revenue by drilling for oil, a part of the oil extraction process cycle is the technology associated with locating the oil. Since the science and technology is separate from the drilling process, Company X establishes a VIE Science and...

...Name Course College The Best Day in my Psychiatric Career As a specialty, psychiatric nursing has been in practice for over 100yrs. It draws its roots from the mental health reform put forth in the 19th century that sort to re-organize mental health asylums into health institutions throughout the world. It steady progress caught my interest, and coupled with an already developed interest in psychiatry as a career, I comfortably ventured into the profession. I have been a psychiatric nurse for well over 5 years and in all the days I have diligently served in my post only one specific day qualified as the best in my career to date. It was on the17th of December 2015, and on this specific day all the staff at the Grace the Hand Mental Institution got a chance to become part and parcel of a seminar that aimed to both empower and give light to all that practiced psychiatry on the essence of psychiatry. The seminar was to be held in the watch room of the institution and all practitioners were allowed to mingle with the patients during the entire session, however, patients that require special attention had psychiatric nurses assigned to them on a shift to shift basis. The seminar taught and shed light on a lot of things and these I have described as follows. First and foremost is the progression of psychiatry as a career, here, it was brought to our attention that only one key skill forged the foundation of psychiatry to what it is today and this is the one-one therapeutic relationship...

...For my third research project, I would like to research the infamous Dan Cooper. I would like to research this topic because I find it very interesting just how someone could commit such an astonishing crime and still not be incarcerated after over 45 years on the run. The man seems to have “fallen off the grid” since that day of November 24th, 1971 with no hard evidence to lead authorities to any conclusions. The fact that such an act is possible, quite frankly, astonishes me and intrigues me to look deeper into why this man has not been apprehended. I have conducted a fair amount of prior research on the subject, which primarily included the watching of many film specials broadcasted by popular media networks such as CNN and ABC News. In this research, I have the means in which Dan Cooper, or D.B. Cooper as he is more popularly known by, committed his crime. I now know how he took control of the plane by showing the bomb in his briefcase to a flight attendant; the demands that he stated to the flight attendant to get the pilots to land the plane in Seattle, where they were met with $200,000 in cash, four parachutes, and jet fuel;...

...How to be a Leading Finance Magazine— A Case Study of Caijing By Lin Hong GRADUATION PAPER May 19, 2010 Paper submitted to the School of Magazineism and Communication of Xiamen University in partial fulfillment of requirements for the bachelors degree. Zhuang Hongming was faculty adviser. ABSTRACT Wang Shuo, the deputy editor of Caijing, a famous finance magazine for its specific editing style in China, said: “We are doing everything possible while the main line has never changed. We report events we think readers should focus on, and stories we consider to be important but not completely to follow market rules. It is not a magazine that simply caters to readers’ taste, but one that is of enlightenment, and of elitist thoughts. " "Independent, exclusive, original" is always the rule that Caijing has been following. Then how the magazine implements the rule successfully is what this research is concerned about, because in today’s chaotic magazine market, manage a magazine in a specific way is a problem related to survival and development. Therefore, the hints from the study of Caijing are significant to the magazine industry. That is the purpose of this paper.

...career in the research and teaching of management. In particular, I am interested in factors that affect the competitive performance of a business concern, and the manner in which changes in technology affect an organisation's structure, long-term business strategy, product development, manufacturing, supply chains, distribution network, information needs and standard systems. In order to gain an appreciation of these and related issues, it is essential for me to have a strong grounding in Economics, Supply Chain Management, and issues connected with Information Technology, as well as gain a General Management perspective. Review para1 I believe that the Ph.D. program in Business Administration (with concentration in Management) would be invaluable in helping me achieve these objectives. It would enable me to channel my quantitative and conceptual skills in analysing business issues and would open up new avenues in research. Subsequent to earning a Ph.D., I would like to apply for a faculty position at a leading university; and investigate issues concerned with technology as it affects organisation strategy, structure and systems. Review para2 I believe that my background in engineering and management has prepared me for such a career. I have found research fascinating since my engineering days, where I received the highest marks in the Department for my final-year undergraduate dissertation; and was judged to have presented the best paper at a Departmental seminar. My four years...

...NORML-National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws By Abigail Galicia PID: A09469570 POLI 100E Final Paper Prof. Galderisi 12/13/2012 Abigail Galicia POLI 100E Galderisi 12/13/12 Final Paper NORML-National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws “It’s NORML to Smoke Pot.” How is NORML organized, and how does it pursue its policy interests? I. Introduction. The issue of the legalization of marijuana has been a hotly-debated and increasingly bitter confrontation among Americans. On the one side lie those who oppose everything about the drug and believe it to be a threat to society’s health and well-being, while the other side is composed of “the millions of smokers, many of them well educated, successful people who resent being defined as criminals for using what they regard as a mild but enjoyable drug (Anderson 3).” Both sides—for and against the legalization of marijuana—have presented proper research and evidence on either the virtually harmless or life threatening effects of marijuana along with either the economically beneficial or detrimental effects drug policy reform will have on the US. Either way, this debate has gained political momentum in the past decades and can no longer be seen as one-sided. Fueling this debate and whole-heartedly representing the pro-marijuana lobby organization, is the interest group NORML. NORML stands for the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws and has been the top main advocate in leading the...

As I was heading to the fair, I met someone on the bus who was also going, so we decided...

...How To Write a Thesis Statement What is a Thesis Statement? Almost all of us—even if we don’t do it consciously—look early in an essay for a one- or two-sentence condensation of the argument or analysis that is to follow. We refer to that condensation as a thesis statement. Why Should Your Essay Contain a Thesis Statement? to test your ideas by distilling them into a sentence or two to better organize and develop your argument to provide your reader with a “guide” to your argument In general, your thesis statement will accomplish these goals if you think of the thesis as the answer to the question your paper explores. How Can You Write a Good Thesis Statement? Here are some helpful hints to get you started. You can either scroll down or select a link to a specific topic. How to Generate a Thesis Statement if the Topic is Assigned How to Generate a Thesis Statement if the Topic is not Assigned How to Tell a Strong Thesis Statement from a Weak One How to Generate a Thesis Statement if the Topic is Assigned Almost all assignments, no matter how complicated, can be reduced to a single question. Your first step, then, is to distill the assignment into a specific question. For example, if your assignment is, “Write a report to the local school board explaining the potential benefits of using computers in a fourth-grade class,” turn the request into a question like, “What are the potential benefits of using computers in a fourth-grade class?” After you’ve chosen the...

...As I read through the interest group website on group that stood out for me was the American Association of Retired Persons (AARP). I was surprised to see that it was one of the top 25 most influential special interest groups listed (Interest 2002). My husband is over 50 and I am fast-approaching that age. He is a member of AARP and as a spouse so am I. We get the newsletters and e-mail but I never really paid much attention to the influence AARP had over policies affecting people over 50. The main theme of my paper is how AARP’s organization and lobbying efforts show that to be a force to be reckoned with, an interest group can use money and sheer numbers to get it’s point across. First let’s define what a lobbying is. According to Encyclopedia Britannica “lobbying, any attempt by individuals or private interest groups to influence the decisions of government; in its original meaning it referred to efforts to influence the votes of legislators, generally in the lobby outside the legislative chamber. Lobbying in some form is inevitable in any political system” (Britannica 2011). The organization I chose to write about was formerly known as the National Retired Teachers Association. “Because of its broader focus on issues ranging from medical care, social security, health and welfare, aging, insurance, financial planning, and consumer protection, the name was officially changed in 1999 to the American Association of Retired Persons (AARP)” (Money Matters 2011). AARP...
