Constitutional Law In this county, our constitution does not embody a full separation of powers. Our parliamentary democracy makes for a considerable fusion of the executive and legislative branches (Lord Irvine). Discuss "While a strict separation of powers has never been a basis for the British constitution these arrangements seem to fly in the face of common assumptions about the role of the two Houses in relation to the Executive" (Jowell & Oliver 1994). Whilst Jowell and Oliver talk about the separation of powers not being a basis for our constitution, I will look at the arguments for and against this concept and give reasons for my findings. To do this I will first need to consider what a constitution is and what is meant by the doctrine of separation of powers. "A constitution is a set of rules that seek to establish the duties, powers and functions of the various institutions of government, regulate relationships between them and define the relationship between the state and the individual" (Heywood 2000). A constitution is a set of rules that lays down who can do what and to whom. The British constitution is unwritten/uncodified (not written down on any papers), which means it is flexible (easy to amend and make changes). Our constitution is also unitary which means that power is centralised and focussed around the national government and is not dispersed into

Deprived Areas of Baltimore. I chose to attend the Coppin State University versus Towson University basketball game for my spaces of sport paper. I decided to use this event because Coppin State has a very high minority percentage. I am a Caucasian male
Baltimore is one of the worst cities in America with crime and murder totals at the highest I have ever seen or heard of and since I have been at school here they have only risen even more. "Bolstered by a host of unwanted rankings-first among large cities in the United States for murder, violent, and property crime, and drug-related emergency room visits; consistently in the top-ten most dangerous cities in the United States; a poverty level of 24% (34% for children under 18); life expectancies 14 years under national averages; ten pregnancy the highest among the nation's 50 largest cities; blocks of vacant and abandoned row houses; having some of the highest violent crime and juvenile homicide figures; drug-addiction, syphilis, gonorrhea, and HIV infection rates in the country; and a per capita income level 57% below Maryland's average" (Silk, 2010). So you could see when we were proposed of the idea that we had to go to an area normally run by people that are considered minorities and Baltimore only 15 minutes away you realize how someone could get a bad impression of this project. We decided to go into Baltimore to do this project. In this paper I am going to write how I felt while I was there, how I was treated, and how uncomfortable I felt being there. I am also going to tell of different promotional ideas that I have of getting more white college students to attend
How far do representations of UK/ Hollywood gangsters present a glamorous and attractive lifestyle?
"Being a gangster was better than being President of the United States." (Ray Liotta as Henry Hill in Goodfellas) How far do representations of UK/ Hollywood gangsters present a glamorous and attractive lifestyle? The Liotta statement clearly outlines how organised crime has been represented in the American film industry in the last ten years. The statement followed a close narration of Hill's life and at its peak, he had extreme power of his community that represented the power of the president as every institution from the post office to taxi firms were under his "family's" control. This statement is key to answering the question as to whether British and American institutions represent crime in a glamorous light and whether it differs between them. There is a clear argument to state that the American organised crime rings are portrayed in a positive manner as opposed to that of the British ones, and several examples can support this theory. This study aims to decipher between the common representations of organised crime of the American and British film institutions and assess several different examples in terms of this. The "gangster" genre was spawned from the earlier "Film Noir" genre that depicted the underbelly of society, crime and espionage and gradually developed as the mafia became more prolific and influential. The mafia has various connotations
Operations Mgmt
Group Report On The P, T, and S Facilities Covering the Topics of: * Communications * Materials and Inventory * Order Entry * Supervision at the Plant * General Production Flow * Logistics Every organization whether it is successful or not can constantly improve upon their operations. In order to succeed at improving facilities that work together in some way, shape, or form such as the P, T, and S facilities, problems must be identified and turned into opportunities to improve and streamline each one of their operating businesses. This group report will look at six different areas that can be streamlined to run with much higher levels of efficiency than they are currently operating at. The following six topics will be researched, discussed, and have logical solutions that will be recommended: * Communications * Materials and Inventory * Order Entry * Supervision at the Plants * General Production Flow * Logistics The fact that the P, T and S facilities work together in some manner is reason enough to have all of these facilities in close vicinity to one another; our suggestion for the three facilities is that a large parcel of land be found and purchased to build a reasonable sized industrial complex housing all three facilities under one roof. The reason for building a facility that will house all three units is that there is too much transporting back
Do students studying in UK like the English culture?
. Topic Do students studying in UK like the English culture? 2. Introduction "To adapt or not to adapt is the question." Every year thousands of students gain admissions into the various universities in UK and many foreign students descend on each campus for furthering their career aims. Each student has to undergo a huge change in his/her lifestyle and adjust according to the local culture and traditions. This may involve a total change in the outlook of the students especially if he/she is from another country and another continent. The cross-cultural societies that are represented in each university are enormous. For students from conservative societies, there might be a huge cultural shock regarding the lifestyle followed in UK. The University of Southampton has 20,000 students of which 5000 are from overseas. Each student is from a different ethnic background and different country and religion. The EU students may not find a huge difference in the culture followed here but some students from other places like Asia and Africa may be a bit different in their opinion regarding this. 3. Methodology To find out whether the students are successfully assimilating English culture and if they prefer it to their own forms the nucleus of this study. It was not very easy to quantify the likes and dislikes of each student, as they are such relative terms and cannot be

MANAGEMENT AND LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT Introduction Management and Leadership are two topics largely under scrutiny by theorists arguing whether they are the same thing, separate entities or if one cannot exist without the other, for example for effective management you need to be have leadership skills. This review looks at several theories of management and leadership development and will critically analysis using relevant literature. Also included in this review is a focus on strategic human resource management and whether there is a link between human resource management and the hiring of female managers. It also includes a look at strategic fit and analysis if it can help with the development of a business in the HRM department, whether it is effective or not. Even though there is literature that can cover numerous topics demonstrating different management theories, this review focus predominately on a smaller sub section of management which is women and their role in management. What this review mainly encapsulates is a negative attitude towards women and many hardships they face trying to compete with the dominant male population. It also reveals that although people feel there has been progression in equality in the work place this might not be the case in higher paid jobs.

T.S. Elliot's The Wast Land: metaphors and metonymy.
T.S. Elliot's The Wast Land: metaphors and metonymy. Metonymy doesn't substitute like metaphor something like the thing that is meant for the thing itself, but substitutes some attribute or cause or effect of the thing for the thing itself. As an elaborate and repetitive device, it fulfils two functions in modernist poems. It depicts a fragmentation of perception - which it in part creates as well. It also constructs a new coherence, one that is unlike the linear structure of the conventional narratives, but resembles a network. One of the central problems of modernist poetry is indeed its attempt to overcome the traditional narrative, the epic tradition that brings with it coherent characters and personalities (like the epic heroes) as well as a linear view of history. Both of these points were threatened by the more and more increasing speed of modern life in the late industrial society as well as by the most radically disturbing experience in history so far: The First World War. The abandoning of epic tradition was much more difficult than the early attempts of the modernist suggested. For example, Imagism thought to overcome the traditions of its predecessors by simply refusing to develop coherent arguments. A single image was declared sufficient, and narrative to be avoided at all costs (R. Stevenson). Yet the price that it had to pay for its radical reduction of poetic
The law tries to attain social cohesion by enacting laws to reflect what society believes. Is this possible in today's society?
Ours is an increasing global era. We live in what many would call a multi-cultural society, a society based upon many different religions, ethnicity and cultures. The law attempts to bring together these differences to reflect a common morality. In short the law tries to attain social cohesion by enacting laws to reflect what society believes. Is this possible in today's society? With international events playing heavily on lawmakers minds can the law truly be impartial and treat everybody as having the same moral rights? One mans moral standard may be another mans wrong. It is this problem that law makers face. Can a balance be struck? Do any of today's legal theories back this notion of a common morality but more importantly is it even possible for the law to effectively reflect a common morality within society as we see it today? This problem is perhaps best illustrated between the East and the West where there is a deep disparity about what "morality" consists of. The disparity is so serious that it seems to deserve the name of paradigm difference. From the perspective of one paradigm, the other may seem to be abnormal or pre-normal. Though they are both talking about morality, they refer to different concepts and facts. The two discourses are almost incommensurably different. It's this problem that the law seeks sometimes in vain to rectify. Whilst the search for a
teaching styles in different sports
How can you alter your style of teaching to meet the demands of different practice and competitive situations for individual, racket and team sports? In this assignment I will be looking at the different styles of teaching that are needed for different sports practices. For each different practice there are certain skills needed and so which different style you use is vital to how well the performer will do it. 'Skill is the learned ability, through training and practice, to bring about the result you want with maximum certainty and efficiency' (www.ntatt.org/glossary.html). There are two classifications of skill; open and closed. An open skill is when the environment around where you are performing continually changes e.g. passing in football, whereas, a closed skill is where the environment doesn't alter much e.g. penalty in football. 'In 1986 Mosston and Ashworth identified a range of styles, which were characterised by the amount of decisions that the teacher and learner made in the teaching/learning process' (Honeybourne et al). It is important we use this because of the diversity of the students and how they all learn in different ways. Also, the fact that all the students will be of different abilities. In the spectrum there are 10 different styles, see appendix 1, they differ from 'command' to 'self-teaching', which basically is suited towards the ability of the
