...recorded on the front of the Candidate Record Forms. Task Choices The most frequently attempted tasks were those based on Tourism (35% of work seen), Water on the Land (32%), the Coastal Zone (12%), Changing Urban Environments (7%) and the Living World (6%). Centres successfully contextualised the chosen task so that their candidates were able to produce valid investigations. There were some instances of centres attempting a task from the incorrect year of submission or deviating from the task, although not to a degree that invalidated the work produced. The Investigations Many investigations exceeded the guidance of 2000 words and some were far too long. This was particularly evident where very able candidates had access to ICT for the majority, or all, of the time allowed for the task. Centres are advised to ensure that all of their candidates keep to the guidance of 2000 words. Shorter and more succinct pieces of work tend to be more tightly focused, they are easier for centres to mark and they are more manageable from the candidates’ perspective. The more concise style has led, in some instances, to higher quality writing and more attention to detail. It has also been found that candidates who have produced excessively lengthy...

...Analysis of Advice to a Friend on Choosing Mistress Advice to a Friend on Choosing Mistress is a letter written by Benjamin Franklin in June 25th 1745 to his friend. The speech of this letter is essentially communicated to single men. The author gave advices particularly to his friend on which type of woman he should date if he is not ready to get married. Franklin preceded his lustful consulting by an apology for the marriage, recalling his friend how much carnal pleasures are favourable in a legal and recognized union. In his message, Franklin advises his friend that marriage is the best solution not for only sexual desires but also the undisputable source of solid happiness. Having suspicions that his friend would not follow his guidance, Franklin recommends him to choose older mistresses instead of younger ones and lists eight valuables reasons to better support his argument. Franklin commences his essay by presenting advantages of the marriage. He says ‘’ I know of no medicine fit to diminish the violent inclinations you mention…Marriage is the proper remedy. It is most natural state of man and therefore the state in which you can are most likely to find solid happiness’’. Through those sentences, Franklin seems to estimate that from a masculine’ view, one of the main advantages of the marriage is to bring pacification toward requirements of the flesh. The recipient of the letter who was the friend of the author seemed to be looking for a situation in which he...

...Short Paragraph on My Mother for Kids (382 Words) by Anushri Kapur My mother is the most important person in my life. Not only did she carry me for nine months but she continues to support and love me regardless of what I have put her through to bring me up. So far my mother has the greatest impact in my life. Many people have come and passed but she keeps by my side helping and advising me on all the important values of a good life. As I watch her struggle to bring all my three siblings and me up I can only hope to be such a strong and hardworking person myself. She diligently takes care of our family while still running her business. She has shown us that with hard work and determination anything is possible. My mother is patient and when she puts her heart on something, she doesn’t give up until she sees results. My mother runs several successful businesses and is able to juggle between her business and taking care of us. This is something I can only hope to have. My mother and I are close and I normally go to her for advice. She has taught me a lot and has helped me become a better person in life. She is intelligent and knows the solution to almost any problems I seek advice for. I have seen her struggle day to day to ensure we are all ok while still managing to run her demanding businesses.

...Resource list Secondary About this list This resource list aims to provide easy reference to a wide range of available resources and teaching materials for sex and relationships education (SRE). It includes a selection of materials produced by the Sex Education Forum together with resources produced by Forum member organisations and other organisations both not-for-profit and commercial. It is not a comprehensive list but we have prioritised resources that are up-to-date and available. The resources have been listed under four categories; primary level, secondary level, special needs/disabilities and resources for parents & carers. Resources falling into more than one category are listed in all relevant lists. A suggested age-range is given for each resource; however the maturity of children and young people varies so this should be used as a guide only. The Sex Education Forum advises professionals to make their own choices about which resources to use. We do not endorse the resources on this list. The questions in the box below can help to choose and use a resource that will contribute to good quality sex and relationships education. Choosing a resource Is the resource consistent with the values set out in the school or college SRE policy? Is it factually correct and up-to-date? Does it encourage active and participatory learning? Is the resource contemporary in terms of the realities of young people’s lives? Does the resource portray positive images of a range of young...

...Master Thesis Entrepreneurship and Microfinance: A Framework for Impact Evaluation Abstract The idea and implementation of Microfinance has become a hot topic and is currently at the central stage in debates on poverty alleviation. Microfinance can be defined as the sustainable delivery of financial services to the poor that aims at creating a world in which as many poor households as possible, have access to a suitable range of financial services (Christen, Rosenberg and Jayadeva, 2004). However, the large majority of impact studies of microfinance lack empirical support and several limitations and obstacles continue to haunt the potential outcomes of microfinance, such as selection bias (Tedeschi, 2007) and lack of integration with the commercial banking sector (Copestake, 2007). In my thesis, I will focus on yet another limitation, that of lack of entrepreneurial knowledge amongst lenders in microcredit. I will develop on the marginal impact of entrepreneurial training on microcredit and suggest an empirical framework. The paper will start by presenting the topics of entrepreneurship and microfinance and the current situation in Tanzania. In Part II a review of an important study by Karlan and Valdivia will be discussed and in the following section a suggestion for a framework for an empirical study will be made. Conclusions and limitations will be presented in the final sections. Student: Eva Teekens ID: 5704871 Study: Master Business Studies Specialization: Entrepreneurship ...

...Health bill still under debate, which eventually led me to a blog, AlterNation 101 in blogspot, where I read his take on the issue: "I cannot fathom how promoting parental responsibility and financing everyone's freedom to have sex irresponsibly could mix together. Surely, the proposed law spreads around nice words such as responsibility, healthcare, freedom, choice, development, rights, equality, couples, etc. Yet it is nothing but an attempt to remove God from our government and society." I cannot help but ponder on this fallacious statement and had me thinking about my stand on RH bill. The statement generally stands on an illusion that one is not a Catholic if you dare support this bill. First of all, the bill does not, as the blogger Sef Dudeo distastefully puts it, "finance everyone's freedom to have...

...Chapter: 1 SME Financing in Bangladesh We have come across many definitions of SMEs in Bangladesh. According to the Industrial Policy document from the Ministry of Industries, a small enterprise is defined as a registered enterprise with less than 50 workers, excluding the cottage units, and with a fixed capital investment of less than BDT 100 million. A medium enterprise is defined as a registered enterprise with between 50 and 99 workers, and/or with a fixed capital investment between BDT 100 million and BDT 300 million. The PCBs (Private Commercial Banks) seem to have various definitions based on loan components. The small-scale segment is in general defined as enterprises with a loan component between BDT 300,000 and BDT 10 million (between USD 5,500 and USD 185,000). Medium companies are said to have a loan component between BDT 10 million and BDT 100 million (between USD 185,000 and USD 1.85 million). Under yet another definition the World Bank estimates that Bangladesh has approximately 27,000 medium-scaled enterprises (here defined by the Government of Bangladesh as registered enterprises with assets larger than USD 600,000 equivalent) and 150,000 small-scale enterprises (registered enterprises with assets of less than USD 600,000 equivalent). The small and medium scale enterprises (SMEs) are mainly found within the industry and services sector. In Bangladesh, the SMEs account for about 45 percent of manufacturing value addition, 80 percent of industrial employment...
