Travel has long been a human obsession. Destinations far away continue to capture human minds. Travelers, returning from short or long trips for business or leisure, attract co-workers, family, friends and onlookers. In ancient ages, moving across borders, if any, used to be a privilege reserved for ruling classes. As means of people's movement across borders continued to evolve, leaving one's local community, and increasingly later, one's own country has become a matter of fact and increasingly easier. An account of a distant place has become, hence, a matter within reach, if not physically, virtually. Tourism – an economic activity Continue reading...

INTRODUCTION

The search for ancient artifacts, lost histories and the beauty and awe of the 7 Wonders of the World is something that many historians, journalists, educators and archaeologists cannot resist. There is something to be said for being able to literally “touch” the past and feel a connection with those who came before us. Some artifacts have been highly sought after, but never found. These often become associated with grand myths and legends, which increase their significance and value. However, these myths and legends can make it harder to distinguish between what is fiction and what is history (Wood Continue reading...

Discuss and evaluate the role that Human Resource Management plays in modern organizations

Introduction
Organization is a dynamic concept which changes with time and according to needs. Traditional organizations were simple structures based on hierarchy. They were mostly bureaucratic organizations which were formal in nature and bounded with too many rules and regulations. The main focus of traditional organizations was on land and capital.

But with changing complexities, organizations structures too changed like from bureaucratic organizations to flat structures, by giving human resources their due importance. Today’s organization has flexible structures, less formalisation and more freedom. Now organizations take labour not just Continue reading...

Throughout their history, countries may develop as autonomous, semi-autonomous, or dependent states. As such, they have a privilege of pursuing their own vector of development, have it determined by dominant political administrations, or have a partially allowed discretion. Some countries or regions go on to wrest their fate from the firm grip of a superior political master while others languish in their roles of other states’ political satellites. Catalonia is a region in Spain with its unique culture, linguistic abundance, a historical legacy, and economic potential. Still, its history is rather an endless series of periods, over which political Continue reading...

The first four postulates of Euclid were considered as a given and is easily seen and proven. They were assertions that are readily understandable. Euclid’s fifth postulate however is considered as the most different and difficult since its proof is not as obvious. In fact it is so different that it is the reason that paved the way to non-Eucledian geometry. Many mathematicians such as Bolyai, Lobachevsky, and Gauss tried to prove it to be considered as a theorem and to erase the necessity to assume it, but certain assumptions were needed in order to fully understand and Continue reading...

Should the government protect American jobs by imposing stiff penalties on companies that transfer jobs offshore by outsourcing or manufacturing in a different country?

Aristotle Vs Plato: Or, the Varieties of Philosophical Idealism and Realism

In this paper, the metaphysical worldviews of both Aristotle and Plato will be examined and discussed. Plato’s metaphysical worldview is that there is a more perfect world than the world we live in now. Aristotle’s metaphysical worldview is that this is the real world, the world of our immanent reality. Plato’s idealism is that reality exists dependent on the mind’s ability to understand reality as a unity. Aristotle’s realism is simply that reality exists independently of our capacity to understand it, but we can know reality the way that it is through reason and Continue reading...

Based on my research, I will argue that the term scientific genius is the best to describe him since he was knowledgeable in the field of psychology and philosophy. I will also look Continue reading...

What is corrosion?

Corrosion is the degradation of materials properties because of the interactions with their environments. The corrosion of most metals and many other materials for that matter is inevitable. While corrosion is associated primarily with metallic materials, all types of materials are susceptible to degradation. Like taxes and death, corrosion is something we anticipate to avoid; however, it is something that we should learn to deal with. The driving force or the fundamental cause for all corrosion is lowering Gibbs energy of the system. The production of all metals and the engineering components made of metals involves addition of energy Continue reading...

The recession that plunged the economy of Canada into depression ended in the middle of 2009. The economic indicators signify growth of the economy. However, the recovery of the economy is not noticeable to the majority of the population since the rate of unemployment is still high. The rate of unemployment would be higher had many people not opted out of employment due to the unsustainable wages.
