...Цинк | Цинк (Zincum) Zn – химический элемент 12-й ( IIb ) группы Периодической системы . Атомный номер 30, относительная атомная масса 65,39. Природный цинк состоит из трех стабильных изотопов 64 Zn (48,6%), 66 Zn (26,9%) и 67 Zn (4,1%). Цинк известен уже давно. Латунь - сплав меди и цинка - знали еще древние. Затем сведения о цинке были утрачены, и только в 1721 г. саксонский металлург И. Генкель открыл способ получения цинка из руды. Название и химический знак цинка произошли от слова цинкен, которым называли остатки в ретортах, где впоследствии был обнаружен цинк. В чистом виде цинк - синевато - белый металл. Во влажном воздухе он покрывается тонкой пленкой гидрата окиси, предохраняющей его от дальнейших превращений. Нагретый до 100-150° С цинк становится очень ковким и тягучим, а при 200ё С настолько хрупким, что его можно истолочь в порошок. Более половины добываемого в мире цинка расходуется на изготовление оцинкованного железа и оцинкованной проволоки для канатов. Нанесение на поверхность стали и чугуна тонких пленок коррозионно-стойких металлов – важнейшее средство защиты от коррозии. А на первом месте среди всех металлопокрытий – и по важности, и по масштабам – стоят покрытия цинковые. На защиту стали идет 40% мирового производства цинка. Цинк не устойчив к действию кислот и щелочей и растворяется в них. Поэтому в оцинкованной посуде не следует варить пищу, квасить капусту, огурцы или помидоры, хранить томат. Возможны очень опасные отравления, так как растворимые...

...Leadership within an organization is often a challenging task to endure. To be an effective leader one must have values and visions while also having the courage to persevere through obstacles to successfully instill change within an organization. I know one such leader in my community that effectively led a change effort in her organization. For this assignment I interviewed Alyssa May, an Accounting Analyst at Assa Abloy, a lock manufacturing company in Phoenix, Arizona. As an Accounting Analyst Ms. May was in charge of a large inventory reduction effort within her organization. Through hard work and practices such as those presented in The Leadership Challenge, Ms. May successfully achieved her goal of leading a change initiative in her organization. I first asked Ms. May a little about her company and what exactly her leadership role was. She explained to me that her company manufactures heavy-duty commercial locks and security systems. Her role specifically is in the Accounting and Finance department because of her background education in Finance. She is in charge of daily accounting transactions, evaluating the performance of the company based on numerous performance metrics, and constantly cutting costs for the organization.

...Współczesna rzeczywistość a zwłaszcza proces globalizacji spowodował, że kontakty z przedstawicielami różnych kultur są coraz częstsze. Niektóre z tych kultur mogą byc szokujące lub w całe zmienić nasz światopogląd. Jedną z takich kultur jest kultura arabska. Środkowy Wschód uważano regionem bardzo skomplikowanym. W społeczeństwie nadal czczone dawne zwyczaje i normy, szczególnie wśród starszego pokolenia. Obyczaje, zachowanie właściwe dla ludzi arabskich mogą przerażać i zaskakiwać i na odwrót. Dlatego podejmując decyzje o rozpoczęciu jakiejkolwiek działalności gospodarczej na tym czy każdym innym terenie trzeba być świadomym rzeczywistych różnic kulturowych, historycznych, sposobu komunikowania się i td. Może to się stać prawdziwym wezwaniem dla predsiębiorców z poza. Poza tym dużo korporacij i firm znalazło na to rozwiązanie. Najlepiej jest ono opisane hasłem „Myśl lokalnie, działaj globalnie”. Dużo znanych przediębiorstw przyjęło ten wyraz jako swoje kredo ( teraz dokładnie nie wiadomo który z nich był pierwszym). Na przykład był on wykorzystany na bill bordach Mc Donalds’u, w reklamie Starbaksu i dużo innych. Hasło te się stało również kluczem do sukcesu dla światowej muzycznej stacji MTV. MTV jest dostępny dla swoich widzów na każdym kontenencie i w kaźdym przypadku możemy mówić o dobrych wynikach. Zarząd stacji ma bogate doświadczenie a z tego i duża wiedza o tym jak prowadzić swoją działalność na rynku globalnym. To pozwoliło rozpoznać i zaspokoić muzyczne potrzeby...

...University of Westminster Westminster Business School BMKT 510.1: Developing Practical Entrepreneurial Ideas Coursework 1: Opportunity Scrapbook Student Name: Kaniel Kalarikkal Student ID number: W15142771 Module Leader and Team Coach Name: Jane Chang Word Count: 837 Date: 04/11/2015 As a facilitator or a middleman business between textile companies, we aim to help connect buyers and sellers of surplus or waste materials used in manufacturing their product. We would do this by first looking to get large manufacturing companies since they are most likely to have excess raw material stock. At first we would look to deal with mainly the textile industry and then would look to expand to various other materials thus expanding the scope of our target market. The objective of my company would be to help textile manufacturing companies find suitable buyers and sellers for surplus or waste textile materials. These supplies are just left in storage, disposed of, or the enterprises must themselves go out to find suitable purchasers. Instead of these manufacturers actually spending any of their time or resources, we would be helping them find buyers. The term for this sort of market is “Industrial Symbiosis”. What this means is an association between two or more industrial facilities or companies in which the wastes or by-products of one become the raw materials for another (Wrap.org.uk, 2015). The potential market we would be...

...Name: Tutor: Course: Date: World History since 1945 Truman Doctrine The doctrine is named after the then-president Harry Truman. The speech made by the president before Congress in 1947 gave birth to the doctrine. The reason President Truman made the speech was because Britain had announced that they will no longer support the Greek government economically and military wise. Through the doctrine, the government of United States of America (USA) promised to provide political, army and economic aid to all democratic countries under threat from authoritarian powers. It further outlined the change in the USA foreign policy from its usual withdrawal stance from regional conflicts not directly touching on the country, to one of intervention in conflict all over the world. The doctrine also promised to help Turkey and Greece economically and through military actions against the communists this after Britain announced that they would be withdrawing their support. These countries were to receive $400,000,000 aid. The doctrine contents were justified by the need to help free people in their fight against totalitarian rule which would undermine international peace and hence affect the security of the USA (Jones, 36). NSC-68 The National Security Council Paper NSC-68 was a top secret report meant to confront the treat the hostile design of the Soviet Union had on the USA. The report banned the regeneration of US isolationism arguing that it will result in Soviet Union supremacy...
