Directors are neither agents nor trustees of a company’’ The purpose of this Assignment is to analyze the legendary statement made by Lord Mac Naughton during the Salomon vs Salomon case on corporate personality, in the lights of some leading cases. The statement of Lord Mac Naughton was “The Company is at law a different person altogether from its members, the company is not in law agent of the subscribers or to the trustees of them”. Introduction A company is a legal entity that is separate and distinct from its members and shareholders and can act as a single person. When a company is formed, it is said to have become "incorporated". However there were several controversies about the company’s entity. Question was being raised that, ‘does it have a...

...governed are set out in a single legally entrenched constitutional document. | An uncodified constitution is when the laws, rules and principles specifying how a state is to be governed are not set out in a single legally entrenched document but are found in a variety of sources such as statute law and EU law. | Should the UK adopt a written constitution? | Yes | No | 1. Provides greater clarity on what is or is not constitutional. 2. Citizens’ rights are better protected. 3. Fundamental laws and rights would be entrenched. 4. Would provide increased reliability and certainty for citizens and government. 5. Places limits on the power of the executive and politicians. | 1. Would end the flexibility of the current UK constitution which would make the laws of the land harder to adopt. 2. Laws would become difficult to amend. 3.

Statute Law ……………………………………………………………… 7-8 Conclusion ……………………………………………………………………………… 8-9 Bibliography …………………………………………………………………………….... 10 Introduction According to the statement on p.25 in Antoine’s book, Commonwealth Caribbean Law and Legal Systems, there is no general agreement as to how legal systems should be classified. Some writers emphasize a socialist legal tradition; others are concerned with technical differences while some also place more importance on the sources or origins of the law and its structure and methods. Source The socialist legal tradition has its historical origin in the Bolshevist Revolution of 1917 initiating the international and economic order known as Socialism or communism. The main legal distinguishing feature between socialist tradition and the common law or Romano- Germanic tradition is ideology. The socialist argue that law cannot be isolated from the social political and economic order within which it operates, making these elements fundamentally important in determining the type of legal system in existence. The Socialist legal tradition therefore embodies its original meaning aimed at achieving a communist state Rose-Marie Belle Antoine Commonwealth Caribbean Law and legal system, second edition pg. 45.

...Blu – Ray the future of movies Blu Ray - Blu-ray (not Blue-ray) also known as Blu-ray Disc (BD), is the name of a new optical disc format jointly developed by the Blu-ray Disc Association (BDA), a group of the world's leading consumer electronics, personal computer and media manufacturers. The first Blu-ray Disc prototypes were unveiled in October 2000, and it continued to be developed until its official release in June 2006. The format was developed to enable recording, rewriting and playback of high-definition video (HD), as well as storing large amounts of data. This extra capacity combined with the use of advanced video and audio codecs will offer consumers an unprecedented HD experience. The specifications of Blu – Ray vs. DVD Blu-Ray uses a blue-violet laser as opposed to the red laser used on DVDs. This allows Blu-Ray discs to hold a lot more information on them than DVDs. This increase in the amount of information that can be stored on a disc allows you to put High-Definition movies on a disc and not run out of space, since the average HD movie will take up about 15-20 gigabyte (GB) of space. If you have not seen an HD movie yet I would suggest stopping by your local Best Buy or Circuit City and looking at a Blu-Ray display. The images are sharper, brighter, and more detailed than any DVD movie. What manufacturers are trying to do is make the movie look as close to what you see in a real theater as possible, except for it is a tenth the size and in your home. Blu-Rays...

...Millennial Reign of Christ Massive confusion exists within Christian churches about the “Millennium,” a unique thousand-year period depicted in the book of Revelation. Some teach this period is entirely symbolic, and not worth fretting over. Others say we’re in the Millennium now, and that it began when Jesus Christ defeated Satan by His death, burial, and resurrection. Most prophecy teachers contend that this apocalyptic period is still future, that it will immediately follow the Second Coming of Jesus Christ, and will be a time of universal peace on earth as Jesus Christ governs all nations from Jerusalem. But what is the real truth about the thousand years? To discover the answer, one must carefully examine the only authoritative source where it’s taught, the Bible, especially chapter 20 in the book of Revelation. (Wohlberg, 2007) Here’s Revelation 20 in its entirety: And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand. 2 And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years, 3 And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should be fulfilled: and after...

...ADVANTAGE TECHNOLOGY NETWORKS PRACTICE PROCESS BALANCE PERFORMANCE SUPPLY CHAIN SUPPLY CHAIN THE &THE VS. HYPE REALITY 46 SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT REVIEW · SEPTEMBER/OCTOBER 2001 www.scmr.com The conventional wisdom is that competition in the future will not be company vs. company but supply chain vs. supply chain. But the reality is that instances of head-to-head supply chain competition will be limited. The more likely scenario will find companies competing— and winning—based on the capabilities they can assemble across their supply networks. By James B. Rice, Jr. and Richard M. Hoppe A n increasingly vocal and popular sentiment holds that the nature of competition in the future will not be between companies but rather between supply chains. If this does, in fact, represent the future, how will these chains actually compete against each other? And what can practitioners do now in anticipation of this future? In contemplating the much-ballyhooed supply chain vs. supply chain (SC vs. SC) proposition, we first sought examples of this competition in action. Yet for as many examples of SC vs. SC competition that we found, there were at least as many places where the model didn’t fit. On the one hand, we saw vivid examples where one company or a series of companies had designed supply networks to act with singular focus against other unique companies or groups of companies—for example, Brax, Perdue Farms, and Tyson Foods. Yet more...

...Do female politicians conform to a masculine approach in terms of their language use? Women in politics have always been under represented due to the male domination within British politics; this means that female politicians have a majority male audience within the House of Commons and Lords. This poses a difficult task for the minority female politicians to win the support or votes of their male counterparts when campaigning policies or stating points. The great Margaret Thatcher was a radical woman in politics and was well known for her patriotic typically masculine approach to politics, which to some extent won her the title of “THE IRON LADY”. Today in our politics such a woman has not been seen, however I want to know whether or not female politicians feel the need still to adopt such traits. The masculine approach includes a number of factors in which evokes a sense of aggression and competition, such as referring to sporting matches or even war. This investigation will use four sources from Theresa May (conservative), Dianne Abbot (labour), Nadine Dories (conservative) and Julia Gillard (Australian prime minister). From these it will explore how these four women use their language to win votes and campaign their policies, in terms of the use of discourse, grammar, lexis, pragmatics and previous theories of gender differences. To support my findings gender theorists who have specialised in the differences between female and male conversations and speeches. By applying...

...Environmental Value Systems First Nation Americans (Native Americans) VS European Pioneers Native Americans are traditionally known as being rather ecocentric and tend to be deep ecologists. However, European pioneers who settled in North America during the late 1800s were known to be rather cornucopian as they followed a more capitalist system. Native Americans believed that everything was connected to each other. They had a deep respect for the natural world and thought of themselves as being a part of it and not lords who had the absolute power to do what they wanted with it. Much of their religion was tied to nature. They had a holistic approach on life, which also links, to biodiversity. This is a different view to the European pioneers as the Native Americans did not believe in a hierarchy system and assumed that humans were one part of a whole society. This can also be seen as being their belief in stewardship, where they believed that it was their responsibility to take care of the earth by living in harmony with nature and taking care of it as much as they could since their beliefs told them that everything had a spirit. Native Americans refer to the planet as being “Mother Earth/ Mother Nature” as they believed that the land itself was a living entity therefore it could not be owned by anyone. On the other hand, there were the European pioneers who would divide up the land and use it as a source of capital or a way to gain income. As for the European pioneers...

...Together, these three problems risk creating the conditions for lawless violence. Political and intellectual elites are undermining our laws and freedoms. So we need to take what action we can to preserve them ourselves. The Law and Freedom Foundation is not associated with the English Defense League ------------------------------------------------- Law Law is a term which does not have a universally accepted definition,[2] but one definition is that law is a system of rules and guidelines which are enforced through social institutions to govern behaviour.[3] Laws can be made by legislatures through legislation (resulting instatutes), the executive through decrees and regulations, or judges through binding precedents (normally in common law jurisdictions). Private individuals can create legally binding contracts, including (in some jurisdictions) arbitration agreements that exclude the normal court process. The formation of laws themselves may be influenced by a constitution(written or unwritten) and the rights encoded therein. The law shapes politics, economics, and society in various ways and serves as a...

...points, while not being too specific. At the same time it was also not so broad that I could discuss anything and everything in Tolkien’s writing. I then started to do some research behind the topic which I found quite easy as there is a lot of information on both eurocentrism and the villains of Tolkien’s books. Because I had drawn inspiration from my anthropology class to create this thesis, I thought back to the readings I had done for that class and chose to use the reading which related to Tolkien’s writing the most. I had also been given a recommendation in class while researching of Edward Said’s Orientalism, which I found to relate a lot to my topic as well. Lastly I found another article which specifically addressed the orcs in The Lord of the Rings and how they portray human emotions but are misunderstood by both the characters and readers...
