With radio or sound waves there is amplitude the decibels (dB) of the wave, frequency (Hz) the number of waves per second, and the phase or direction in which the wave begins.

Medicine and law and the euthanasia debate 医学、法律与安乐死争议 Medicine and law are the main social institutions at the heart of the euthanasia debate. Where euthanasia is legalised, doctors have the problematic gate-keeping role as the arbiters of terminal illness, deciding how terminal it is, administering pain relief and treatment and ultimately, depending on the legislation adopted, prescribing or delivering terminal medication. Medicine shares this gate-keeping role with the law, which serves a regulating and restraining function, providing safeguards for both doctors and individuals. The many safeguards required in most versions of euthanasia legislation, covering issues such as the meaning of terminal illness and suffering, the patient's decision-making capacity, the interpretation of intention and coercion, the availability of alternative relief, the responsibilities of medical professionals and provision for scrutiny of doctors' decisions, underline the complexity of the issue. A strong view put forward by antieuthanasia advocates is that the very soul of medicine is placed on trial by euthanasia and that doing harm to medicine...

...screened in America being domestic productions. (Cronin, 2009: 2) First films have been translated in Europe during the 1930’s, though the word “translation” may not adequately portrait the process. At that time big film studios simply produced a few separate movies in different languages based on the same scenario. It was only in the 1980’s that a theoretical background started being developed for the 50 year old practice of translating films. (Tomaszkiewicz, 2006: 103) There were considerable controversies even concerning the choice of a name for the new branch of translation studies. In the narrow sense it can be called film translation or cinema translation. However, there are certain similarities between translating films, music, video games and other relatively new means of transferring information, all those together can be called audio-visual translation or (multi)media translation. (Ramael 2001: 13-14). However we decide to call the discipline, it combines aspects of literary and oral translation. On the one hand, it is similar to translating literature in that a movie script is sometimes seen as being a book with only dialogues included and other elements being represented visually. On the other hand, however, it has elements of oral translation, because the dialogues are created to reflect natural, real life speech (Belczyk 2007: 6-7). Another unusual element of audiovisual translation is the fact that the...

The Federal Acquisition Regulation was created to govern the process of purchasing goods and services. The process consists of three phases. These are, need recognition and acquisition planning, contract formation, and contract administration. The FAR System provides uniform policies and procedures for acquisition by all executive agencies. The FAR is codified in Title 48 of the United States Code of Federal Regulations and is prepared, issued, and maintained jointly by the Secretary of Defense, the Administrator of General Services, and the Administrator, National Aeronautics and Space Administration. Not all government agencies are required to comply with the FAR. The Central Intelligence Agency, the United States Postal Service, the Tennessee Valley Authority, the Federal Aviation Administration, and the Bonneville Power Administration all dictate their own procurement rules. The FAR consists of 53 parts and 2 volumes. Volume 1 is comprised of parts 1 through 51 and subchapters A through G. Volume 2 consists solely of subchapter H and houses the largest section of the FAR, Part...

We argue that the relationship between organization subcultures and the implementation of new HR strategies into HR practice has not been adequately explored because of the lack of a comprehensive framework for de®ning and integrating culture change and the strategic HR literature. We review the organization culture and strategic HR literature and present a heuristic that serves as a step toward exemplifying the role of changing employment modes and organizational subcultures in enabling or constraining the implementation of HR strategy. Adjusting to changing environmental demands has been an ongoing pursuit of organizations for centuries, but the task has become even more perplexing...

...In visualizing myself transporting back in time to 2000 BC Thebes Egypt while maintaining my present genetic composition, gender, family and social status; there would be similarities in addition to advantages and disadvantages. I am a woman, a widow, mother, grandmother, proprietress, and social advocate. I, my son, my daughter, and her twin daughters live within the same household. Each of us inherited equal portions of their father’s estate and my daughter inherited her late husband’s property. The information afore mentioned would be in Egypt as it is in the present. In Egyptian society women enjoyed considerable legal rights and were afforded the possibility of economic independence. My daughter could have managed the household by delegating responsibility and hiring an overseer for our agricultural business. As a grandmother I would as I do now, lavish adoration on my granddaughters and share my wisdom with them. My son is an intellectual and philosopher; he would have been receiving an education in Alexandria. My gifts of time management, linguistics, and advocate for the socially disadvantaged could have been translated into Egyptian society. Women could inaugurate court cases, act as witnesses, and handle legal documents and transactions. There were no restrictions on the amount of property and other amenities that a woman, married or unmarried, could own. Throughout history the women in our family have never been subjected to illiteracy. Although Educational...

...The Interaction between Imagery and Allusions in translating Chinese PoetryBased on Tu Fu’s Poems Shih-ying Liaw Prof. Wang Linguistics and Translation June 18 2012 Shih ying Liaw1 Shih-ying Liaw Prof. Wang Linguistics and Translation June 18 2012 The Interaction between Imagery and Allusions in translating Chinese PoetryBased on Tu Fu’s Poems Though Chinese poetry has been translating for almost a hundred years, there are still many questions about the translation strategies and situations worth discussing. In this paper, the interaction between imagery and allusions when translating are discussed and the practical situation used when translating are presented. To discuss the interaction between imagery and allusions, the first thing is to identify and define each term. First is imagery. Imagery is thought to be the most important factor to the poetry. I use Ezra Pound’s word as definition because he is not only a pioneering translator in Chinese poetry and also a great poet. He says that “an image' is that which presents an intellectual and emotional complex in an instant of time.” Further explanation is given by Professor Liu in “The Art of Chinese Poetry” by putting imagery into two categories. The first is “simple imagery,” which is defined as “a verbal expression that evokes a mental picture, which not merely picture in words but also arouses emotional associations and enriches the poetic context”. The Shih ying Liaw2 second category...

...Barriers/obstacles There are many obstacles in handling Generation Y especially based on their attitude. Generation Y is a generation that is challenging and hard to handle as it can change today’s corporate culture. There are different attitudes and work habits that happen with the shift of the younger employment force from Generation X to Generation Y. Generation Y are less committed to stay with the same company. This is because Generation Y is a generation that is money oriented. When they get higher offer with higher pay of salary, they will easily change their job to the new company. Besides that, Generation Y is not a loyal worker because when he or she feels bored working in the company, he or she will try to move to other company which seems more attractive for them. It shows that this is not easy to handle a worker who loves to do job hopping. Other than that, they do not want to take challenge. They need easy work rather than thinking about their work. When tasks given become difficult and complicated, they feel depress and it cause their work is less efficient and become less committed. Like the example from the interviewee, they like to do less. This can be seen when their workday is over, they will back home quickly than to stay and complete the work in earnest. There is a survey done by Kendal Tarranet Worldwide which states that; “Generation Y graduates are likely to be more loyal to their lifestyle than their...

...Cara Baisden Week 6 Assignment: Application Case Introduction to Human Resource Management Gregory Gryzcan 1. I believe that this interview was purposely constructed to throw Maria off, to see if she could handle stressful situations. I do think that jobs of this type can be very stressful so I believe that the interview strategy is not a well thought out interviewing strategy on the part of the firm, but it can also make them miss out on very good workers who just don’t handle job interviews very well. Some people can handle stress on a normal basis but a job interview is not a normal stressful situation, because of the economy and the need for a job, some people just do not handle the type of stress a job interview can give. They become nervous and lose confidence due to the stress. 2. I’m not for sure if I would take the job. I would talk to the Human Resource Manager and clarify the job offer. I would ask about the questioning during the interview to see if it was to check for the ability to handle stressful situations, then I would make my decision if it was good fit. 3. I would ask much travel is required, because It may travel more than what I am willing to travel. I would ask exactly what it is that I need to obtain for the worldwide traveling. So that I assure that I know exactly what I would need and make sure I get everything, to assure I have all I need and that I am completely ready for the job and understand the job requirements completely, assuring...

...Mansour Alnasri #000543474 02/08/2012 College Writing Trudy Stone First Paper Languages Conflict In this world and in this time it is hard to find a person who speaks only one language. Every person of them passes through situations where they face conflict between their native language and the other language that they speak. I read “Translating Translation: Finding the beginning” by Albert Alvaro Rios and I find it really interesting. I feel it touches my mind, he writes about what every person who speaks more than one language thinks about. He writes about different aspects of speaking another language, and more examples of his personal experience. Rios holds the Katharine C. Turner Endowed chair in English at Arizona State University. He is the recipient of many distinguished awards for his writing. Rios starts with general information about himself and how he first noticed this conflict. Then he gets to the main idea and specify more about his experience and provides more examples. He believes that different metaphors, terms, and idioms differ in the meaning between different languages. Alnasri, 3 “Moving from one language to another is more than translating words. It’s getting the body ready as well. It’s getting the heart ready along with the mind.” (Rios,506). Here is one of the main point,...
