The agreement involves a meeting of the minds where the parties to a contract agree upon the terms of the contract. For the contract to be valid, this agreement must include some form of consideration, meaning that the contracting parties must receive something of value from the contract such as money. In order to meet consideration’s requirements, a contract must fulfill three elements. First, there must be a bargain regarding terms of an exchange. Second, there must be a mutual exchange. Third, the exchange must be something of value.

Mr. Hall duties and obligation were to get the beef plant built and running based on the $22 million budget he estimated. This did not happen and initial estimated price rose to $55 million dollars upon completion. In this situation, the issue of self-interest arose in the form of Mr. Hall paying his family member nearly $45,000 dollars to act as a consultant on the project. Secondly, as a means of providing and supporting his family, and maybe for financial gain, Mr. Hall also gave $269,000 or fraudulent obtained grant money to other family members. To make matters worse, Mr. Hall also had the construction company building the beef plant to pay him a 1% consulting fee totaling $173,130 and allegedly had the same construction company to perform nearly $20,000 in work on his personal home. According to the article, nearly $270,000 in false invoices were submitted to the Mississippi Development Authority and Community Bank for equipment and other items and demanded more than a $87,000 payment for several other miscellaneous items. In the end, the plant only functioned for several months and shortly afterwards, Mr. Hall defaulted on the $35 million loan and the bank and the state were...

...Supply Chain Management Final Paper Name: Student ID: Instructor: [Abstract] With the updates of music carriers, the market of headsets expanded quickly. Using the in-ear headsets as a sample product, this paper works on the requirements, souring, logistics, sustainability and costs of the product, and finally works out a supply chain for this product. [Keywords] Supply chain management, headsets Overview Product introduction I choose customized in-ear headsets (or earbuds) as my product. And my firm will be located in Shanghai, PRC. Several colors and different sound drivers are provided. The type of sound drivers used in the headsets, the appearance of the shells and the cable color are determined by customers. Background information As music players get smaller and smaller today, people found there’s no more space for the convenience promotion of music carriers. Thus, customers start to focus on the quality of music they hear. In the past years, the market of earbuds especially those in-ear headsets whose price is over $50 has expanded, and becomes a 10-billion trade. I’m quite interested in audio products and this idea came out when I was looking for a new earphone on some e-stores. That moment I was browsing the official site of Ultimate Ears, the very famous brand of professional ear monitors, and it’s also well known for its customized in-ear monitors for vocalists. I hope to figure out how this kind of customized-pattern works if it is applied...

...Dietary Intake and Risk Factors for Poor Diet Quality Among Children in Nova Scotia Paul J. Veugelers, PhD1 Angela L. Fitzgerald, MSc, PDt2 Elizabeth Johnston, PhD, PDt, FDC3 ABSTRACT Objective: Public health policies promote healthy nutrition but evaluations of children’s adherence to dietary recommendations and studies of risk factors of poor nutrition are scarce, despite the importance of diet for the temporal increase in the prevalence of childhood obesity. Here we examine dietary intake and risk factors for poor diet quality among children in Nova Scotia to provide direction for health policies and prevention initiatives. Methods: In 2003, we surveyed 5,200 grade five students from 282 public schools in Nova Scotia, as well as their parents. We assessed students’ dietary intake (Harvard’s Youth Adolescent Food Frequency Questionnaire) and compared this with Canadian food group and nutrient recommendations. We summarized diet quality using the Diet Quality Index International, and used multilevel regression methods to evaluate potential child, parental and school risk factors for poor diet quality. Results: In Nova Scotia, 42.3% of children did not meet recommendations for milk products nor did they meet recommendations for the food groups ‘Vegetables and fruit’ (49.9%), ‘Grain products’ (54.4%) and ‘Meat and alternatives’ (73.7%). Children adequately met nutrient requirements with the exception of calcium and fibre, of which intakes were low, and dietary fat and sodium...

Title: Information technology in human resource management: an empirical assessment Author(s): Ibrahim Akman and Alok Mishra Source: Public Personnel Management. 39.3 (Fall 2010): p271. Document Type: Article Copyright: COPYRIGHT 2010 Sage Publications, Inc. http://www.sagepub.com.ezp01.library.qut.edu.au Abstract: The present paper begins by introducing a number of observations off the applications of information technology (IT) in the field of human resource management (HRM) in general. This is due to the fact that IT and its wide range of applications have already made their presence felt in this area. This will be followed by a report on the findings of a survey on the present trends in organizations with in the different sectors in Turkey. Although the impact of IT on HRM has long been attracting the interest of academics, no empirical research has ever been realized in this field in Turkey, and few studies have been reported elsewhere. The survey was conducted among the 106 IT managers and professionals from various sectors, based on whose results, the data shows that IT is used extensively in the organizations to perform HRM functions in Turkey's dynamic economy. The results also indicated that, while IT has an impact on all sectors in terms of HRM to certain extent, the types of IT used vary significantly between recruitment, maintenance, and development tasks.

...FEES AND CHARGES FOR 2011 Web Page www.ru.ac.za/fees (1) GENERAL INFORMATION Liability for fees Liability for all fees begins as soon as completed application forms are submitted to the University and the student is accepted. The signing of the application form establishes the legal liability of the student and his/her other funder for the payment of all fees as determined by the Council. This can vary according to the student's circumstances. These fees are published in the annual Rhodes University Calendar, and are available on the WEB. In any discussions or negotiations about fees, it will be assumed that a student and his/her other funder have made themselves aware of the provisions of this section and of the equivalent fees schedule. While the University attempts to keep fees as low as possible, student fees usually increase annually by approximately 10% per annum. Ignorance of the fees payable does not provide grounds for avoiding liability for any fees due and payable. Alteration of fees The University Council reserves the right to alter all fees payable to the University, or to impose a fees surcharge if circumstances require it. In the case of an alteration of fees...
