Lease/Licence Distinction
LANDLORD AND TENANT Task 1: Explain the essential characteristics of a Lease and critically distinguish between a Lease and a Licence.. In order to address the differences it is necessary first to look at the characteristics of each and then analyse effectively the present day position and what the effect of that distinction is. Historically the distinction in terms of frequent litigation arose as a result really of the Rent Acts whereby residential tenants were given full security of tenure and in effect had a home for life unless one of the grounds for possession as set out in the Act were made out. Indeed there are similar provisions in relation to Assured Tenancies under the Housing Act 1988 apart from the fact that there are certain mandatory grounds for possession notably Ground 8. Landlords therefore took steps to use a mechanism to try and get round the Rent Acts to show that the occupancy was merely one of licence which in effect was a personal contract to occupy but not on an exclusive basis. For some time this was effective until cases developed but the law was confusing at that time to say the least and even the House of Lords found difficulty in grappling with the problems. In order to address the issues it is therefore necessary to consider what a Lease actually is. A lease creates an estate in Land1 which basically is leasehold testate for a term of years

Compare and contrast arguments for and against belief in life after death.
.) Compare and contrast arguments for and against belief in life after death (20 marks). 26/01/03 One initial problem with studying the belief in life after death is that there are a vast number of theories stating what they believe 'life after death' actually is. Therefore in order to effectively ascertain arguments for and against this idea, it is necessary to deal with each individual theory separately. Plato's theory of dualism1 argues that it is the mind that determines our personality and that the body is an outer shelf for the real self. The body is contingent and therefore destined for decay but the mind is associated with the higher realities such as truth, goodness and justice and is immortal. Plato believed that the soul continues after death. Plato said that there was a perfect idea/form for everything in existence. The idea of the thing is prior to the individual instance of it and so it must be more real. Ideas are not physical things so they must belong to a spiritual realm of reality, which is more real than the material realm. According to Plato the telos2 of the body is to be in the physical world and receive sense-impressions whereas the telos of the soul is to travel into the realm of heavenly ideas and understand them. Before our immortal souls became imprisoned in our bodies they were acquainted with these heavenly ideas and so our soul wants to
Willy Russell's "Blood Brothers" Review
Willy Russell's "Blood Brothers" Review Tell me it's not true Say it's just a story These words echoed in my head as I entered the Phoenix Theatre. I had had past experience with "Blood Brothers" by singing the heartbreaking ballad "Tell Me It's Not True" in a past show. Therefore I anticipated that the performance I was about to watch was going to be a roller coaster of emotions, with bitter consequences. I expected a first class show with strong, slick performances from the cast and fantastic musical numbers. This expectation of "Blood Brothers" was partly due to it being in the reputable West End of London and had been running at the Phoenix Theatre since 1991. This made me think that a musical that could still have large audiences coming to see it in the highly competitive London Theatre scene, must have something exceptional. I also has background knowledge about "Blood Brothers" from reading the script in parts in class. However, some parts of the play were still patchy to me, so I was looking forward to having the entire story acted out from start to finish. It was interesting for me as well because I was familiar with other plays Willy Russell had written. Having seen Shirley Valentine and read "A Grand Day Out" I enjoyed his of simple, uncluttered style of writing. "Blood Brothers" is set in Liverpool 1962. Its story stems from an impoverished single mother
The role of communication and interpersonal interaction in Health and Social Care
Nathan Randle. Developing effective communication skills In Health and Social care, Level 3 The role of communication and interpersonal interaction in Health and Social Care. P1: Health and social care work is not just about meeting a service user’s physical needs; it is also about the service user’s quality of life, and maintaining a good quality. Care workers need effective communication skills in order to pass on information to clients, service users and cross-departments.Health care professionals also need to form relationships with both their service users and their friends and family where applicable. This is so that both service user and family can trust the health worker, which reassures them that the service user will be taken care of correctly. There are several different types of effective interpersonal communication. Firstly is non-verbal communication. Usually we can immediately tell how an individual is feeling, whether it is happy, sad, angry or upset etc., even before the individual has said anything. We do this by observing a person’s body language, for example, in the conversation I observed in the attached logbook, person A was slouched towards the desk, with his head in his arms, as if sleeping, or hiding one’s face. From this I could tell that the individual was tired or bored, as if he was not bored, or tired, he would most
Effect of presentation mode on recall of news infromation
EFFECT OF PRESENTATION MODE ON RECALL OF NEWS INFROMATION ABSTRACT A media comparison study was conducted to compare undergraduate's recall of news information presented in three different conditions; to establish which form of medium is most effective in conveying information. A sample of 93 psychology undergraduates were presented with a series of violent and non violent new stories; either audio-visually, in audio or in print. Immediately after presentation, subjects were tested for cued recall of story content. Significant result of presentation medium and content type was found. As predicted recall of information was best in the print and was worst in the audio condition. Overall violent content was recalled better than non-violent content, especially in the audio-only and print modes. Statistical results indicate that reading the news produces a much more effective retention of information than listening or watching the news. This also confirms previous findings on adults that recall of material presented in print medium is superior to that from radio or television presentation. Therefore results have implications for future presentation of news information INTRODUCTION It has always been part of human nature to obtain information about the world surrounding it and the people within it from some kind of source. In the past, it was often family or the church
Abortion and Euthanasia
RELIGIOUS STUDIES COURSEWORK - ABORTION AND EUTHANASIA A - Explain the beliefs that Christians have about their responsibility for people at the beginning or end of their lives. Christians believe that all life is sacred, meaning that it is a gift from God - it is holy, precious and should not be taken for granted. Christians believe that God made Man in His own image, so therefore our life represents God's life, which is another way in which it is sacred. As life is sacred, then Christians believe that it should be preserved, which gives Christians responsibility to care for those unable to look after their own lives, such as those at the beginning or the end of their lives. There are several Bible passages which show that life is sacred to God, so should be sacred to us. St. Paul writes it perfectly in his first letter to the Corinthians, in which he asks, "Don't you know that you yourselves are God's temple and that God's Spirit lives in you? If anyone destroys God's temple, God will destroy him, for God's temple is sacred, and you are that temple." (1 Corinthians 316-17). He later repeats himself in the same letter, saying, "Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honour God with your body." (619-20). As St. Paul states, our bodies are a
Volcano Assessment.
Edward Phillips. February, 2002 Volcano Assessment The ground beneath our feet is constantly shifting ; as continents split apart and crunch together, new oceans open up and old ones are squeezed out of existence. The whole of the Earth's surface is forever breaking up and moving - very, very slowly, but with enormous force. The map of the world has been steadily changing for millions of years. About 500 million years ago, most of the southern continents were part of one landmass, called Gondwanaland. Very gradually, the landmasses drifted apart and came together again. About 175 million years ago, they formed a new continent called Pangaea and a new sea, called Tethys. The large landmass of Pangaea began to break up. Over the past 175 million years, very gradually, the continents have drifted apart to where they are now. Inside the Earth The Earth is made up of a number of layers. Like an apple, it has a skin, called the crust (or Lithosphere) which includes tectonic plates, a flesh called the mantle and a core, which is divided into the outer core of liquid metal (mainly nickel and iron)and the inner core of solid metal (mainly iron). The crust, which is made of solid rock has two parts - continental crust and oceanic crust. Beneath the crust is the mantle, made from a layer of hot melted rock called magma.

ASSIGNMENT "PEOPLE AT WORK" By Anil Malik ID-33067976 MBA (03) Sept 03 ACKNOWLEDGEMENT I acknowledge my sincere thanks to Mr. Peter Sandiford, tutor People at work, Leeds Metropolitan University and Ms. Shuchi Parashar, Executive - HR department, GECIS (India) for their constant cooperation and guidance in the completion of this project. INTRODUCTION "Human Resources" is the major asset for any organization and the strength of the Organization lies in its dedicated work force. It has been the constant endeavor of the management to develop an efficient team and to improve the quality of life of its employees. (www.hinduonnet.com) The organization that I have selected for the present module is GECIS (India) as I have worked in the call centre of GECIS (India) for three year and can relate to the HRM issues faced by it. GECIS is a subsidiary of General Electrical Company of USA and is a world-class remote processing operation centre, serving clients from around the world through its IT-enabled services. It was set up in 1997 to carry out back office operations for a number of the Capital businesses in order to leverage the English speaking, highly educated, intellectual capital of India to deliver processes that do not require face-to-face contact with the customer. Today GECIS (India) is one of the pioneers in the call centre industry in India. It started with a
Data Handling Project
Data Handling Project Alexandra Mullan For this project, I have chosen to show the relationship between height and weight. The main reason for this is because the data for height and weight is continuous, unlike eye and hair colour and KS2 results which are discrete or qualitative. Therefore, I can put the information I find into cumulative frequency tables, box plots, histograms and scatter graphs. Plan Before I begin my statistical inquiry I need a hypothesis to examine. A hypothesis is used as a basis for further investigation, and my first hypothesis is going to be as follows: "The taller a pupil is, the more they are going to weigh " I will use scatter graphs to compare all of my data and find correlations and standard deviation. I will use my histograms and box and whisker plots to investigate further the weight differences between each year and the boys and girls, and therefore I will find the quartiles and the median etc. I could do this investigation using all 1183 pieces of data; however this would be extremely time-consuming. I therefore am going to take a random stratified sample, and if I make my sample large enough I am confident that the results will give a good indication of the results as a whole because my data will have a large range and should consequently cover a good majority of
