Part Two: Counsel’s Memorial i. Introduction ii. Statement of facts iii. Statement of purpose iv. Arguments v. Bibliography International Arbitration Part 1 Question 1: Importance of Severability in Arbitration Severability is a term found in contract agreements that permits individuals or parties to leave out a component in an agreement which is perceived inappropriate or impossible to enforce. Severability is important since it will facilitate the other components to remain valid and hence to be enforced effectively. It is contained in arbitration law and it is a significant clause that defines the validity of any given contract. It is also referred to as saving phrase or clause in some literature. In this case, a contract will remain valid even after a portion of the contract is denounced later as invalid. This is a very important principle since it shows the motives of both parties when unenforceable clauses have been imposed on the contract. Provision of the said clause will be subjected to modifications in order to reflect the motives of the parties involved. As a result, the remaining clauses will proceed normally without any hindrances. It is important to note that severability clause is very crucial in any...

...A fuzzy logic approach to urban land-use mapping Henning Sten Hansen National Environmental Research Institute, Ministry of Environment & Energy Frederiksborgvej 399, DK-4000, Roskilde, Denmark Phone : +45 46 30 18 07 Fax : +45 46 30 12 12 HSH@DMU.DK Abstract. The growth of cities represents huge problems for modern societies. Monitoring, analysing and modelling the urban dynamic call for detailed mapping of urban land-use. Traditionally, urban land-use mapping is based on orthophotos and satellite images, but deriving land-use from remote-sensing alone is not satisfactory. The Danish Building & Dwelling Register is a database containing detailed information like year of construction, use, area etc. Therefore, this database provides a useful foundation for urban land-use mapping. To be able to track urban land-use changes over time, we have chosen square cells (100m x 100m) as basic mapping units. Generally, land cover and land-use mapping are based on crisp classification, but in the current project we have applied a fuzzy modeling approach to land-use mapping. Fuzzy classification offers a better choice in urban land-use mapping, because it can indicate the primary, secondary etc. land-use simultaneously. This will offer more meaningful information for planners and a more detailed understanding of the land-use patterns. Based on these principles, a nation wide urban land-use database for the year 1997 is established. 1 Introduction Metropolitan areas all over the...

...Membership and Retention Over the last 20 years, organized labor unions have seen a decline in membership due to the loss of manufacturing jobs in the United States. Manufacturing companies are concerned with remaining competitive in the current American market in which overseas competitors make it less possible to succeed. American manufacturers want to keep the prices of services and products competitive while still managing to be profitable. Similarly, labor unions are also concerned about the loss of manufacturing jobs in America since it causes lower wages and it becomes more difficult for union to cover member costs. Unions must take certain steps to ensure that membership is maintained and unions remain healthy and strong. Also, companies must take numerous steps that can assist in retaining or help manufacturing facilities grow in the United States. From a Union Perspective One of the main concerns of labor unions is to ensure that membership is maintained and to remain strong and healthy. It is important for unions to take the proper steps to successfully achieve union goals. Number of Representatives Employees like to know that their contributions to labor unions are being put to good use and they feel like the union is providing protection. For unions to cover organizations well and retain membership numbers, unions should have a sufficient number of stewards present in organizations. It is a good practice to have one steward per department or direct supervisor...

...The Timelessness of Literature Since the beginnings of society, there have been storytellers. Through these people, their words, and their stories, we have been given a heritage of thought. These stories have provided a basis of thought and action for society, by giving examples and expectations of how life should be. Among these stories and books, very few have been read and enjoyed enough to be called a classic. These few are the books that have, and will, stand the test of time and will continue to be read and taught. These are the books that contain the teachings that have remained true and relevant throughout the ages. These writings and their messages are still taught because, like Calvino’s contends, literature is timeless and ceaseless in its teachings. In present society, we do not often enough speak of how influential the past is and how much it can teach us. In “Why Read the Classics”, twentieth-century Italian writer Italo Calvino writes of the importance of reading classic literature. He defines the word “classic” in many different ways to give different reason they are important or relevant to the present day. In one of the definitions given, Calvino speaks of the influence that literature has had on society. He points out that this influence is often unrecognized largely because the teachings of literature are often understated, but powerful, “camouflaging themselves as the collective or individual unconscious” (127). Calvino makes evident the fact that although...

...Nathan Birecki GLG103 Peters April 19. 2015 Hometown Geology: Geologic History Papago Park Papago Park Pediment if an interesting part of Arizona from a geologic standpoint. Metarhyolite is the oldest rock that is exposed on the surface at Papago Park and it is from the Precambrian era. The Metarhyolite was produced from a low-grade metamorphism implying that Papago Park once had some volcanic activity. The Metarhyolite is composed of Rhyolite, Pumice, and Greenstone. Two different forms of granite intrude upon the Metarhyolite they are Tovrea and Camelback Granite. Basalt and Aplite dikes intrude upon both the granite units and the Metarhyolite. There is also an unconformity that exists between the Precambrian and Tertiary rock units however there are no rocks from either the Paleozoic or Mesozoic era. Uplifting of the Precambrian era rock units occurred during the Tertiary era resulting in the deposition of rock beds that contain both sand and siltstones. Some volcanic activity produced ash that has been transported via weathering to various locations throughout Papago Park. The deposition of Alluvium from the Quaternary era indicates there was once a flowing river that is currently a dry riverbed. Landslides deposited the Stadium and Zoo Breccia members as the formation known as the Camel Head. There are both normal and reverse throughout Papago Park but there are no strike-slip faults. The majority of the faults are moderately dipping around 45 degrees that explains...

...A Prescription or Gym Membership? They say you can never be too rich or too skinny. The quest for a diet that will finally shed those pounds is a never ending battle for many people. There are many options when choosing a plan to lose weight. Taking a pill that will magically shed the weight versus hours in a gym and monitoring calories appeals to many people. If the traditional method of losing weight through diet and exercise does not produce results, a non-traditional method could be the answer. There are questions to ask before choosing a method. How much weight loss is needed to improve health? How quickly is the weight loss needed? What lifestyle changes are required? How much can I afford financially? Weight loss occurs when the calories burned are greater than the calories ingested over a period of time. Two of the most common prescription or over-the-counter drugs are appetite suppressors and fat absorption inhibitors. There are also many natural herbs and supplements that claim to shed fat or increase metabolism. The natural way to lose weight is through diet and exercise. Limiting calories and increasing physical activity will cause a person to lose weight. Prescription drugs require doctor visits and are regulated by medical staff. Supplements can be purchased over-the-counter and are rarely approved by the Federal Drug Administration. Losing weight with diet and exercise on your own can be the least costly method. Taking a walk outside in a park...

...Australian trade unions prospered for much of the last century but have suffered membership decline since the late 1970s (Spooner, Innes, Mortimer 2001). Australian Union membership has declined in Australia, as it has in many other economies, over recent years. The decline in Australian Union membership can be attributed more so to local factors such as legislative change, the changing composition of employment and Australians changing attitude toward Unions, rather than that of global factors such as the shift from manufacturing to services and technological change. To aid understanding in the falling of union numbers, it is important to become familiar with unions, be aware of who they are and what their fundamental purpose is. This paper aims to show that a focus needs to be on the micro rather than the macro, that is, issues in Australia rather than global issues to identify what is causing falling union numbers in Australia and outline what can be done to halt the decline of their numbers. The primary objective of a Union is to improve the wellbeing of it members. Unions are, first and foremost, an agency and a medium of power, with their central purpose being to permit workers to exert, collectively, the control over their conditions of employment, which they cannot hope to do as individuals (Hyman 1975). Individuals initially joined unions for different and varying reasons, however there are three reasons that dominate; dissatisfaction with economic aspects of the...

Collins, Senior New Hope Christian Fellowship Ministries P O Box 956606 Marietta, Georgia 30064 Greetings Pastor Collins: I am submitting the attached proposal for consideration by you, the First Lady, and the members of New Hope Christian Fellowship Ministries. This proposal identifies the problems of declining membership at your church as well as possible solutions. I have been a member of New Hope Christian Fellowship Ministries for over seven years and have watched the revolving door of members for that time. In the last eight months, I have observed many members leaving and attendance declining but unlike in the past, new members are not coming into the ministry. As a result of the declining membership and attendance numbers, the ministry is also experiencing low donations and the ministry is struggling to pay its bills. During the last few months, the significantly low donations have begun to threaten the future of New Hope. This proposal will address the problems that I have mentioned; it will also offer solutions that have the potential to provide significant relief to your ministry. Your ministry has been serving the Cobb County, Georgia area for over 20 years and my objective...

...perspective. Specifically, the theory’s in this paper we will explore rational choice theory on labeling and the linkage between arrest and gang membership, social control and differential association in relation to gangs. Each article gives us a study or situation that shows the theory’s effectiveness in explaining certain situations or actions. Gang Membership and Race as Risk Factors for Juvenile Arrest Michael Tapia article piece, “Gang membership and race as risk factor for juvenile arrest” addresses the linkage between arrests and gang membership while also exploring their race and ethnicity in correlation with their gangs. Throughout his research, Tapia shows that “gang members and racial minorities experienced undue arrest”(Tapia, 2011) which can be understood that gang members and minorities, in some cases, are easy targets for arrests because they easily fit the description or label of a law breaker or delinquent. These descriptions that law enforcement and the media portray on these gang members and minorities can eventually lead to future false Running head: Literary review 2 arrests no matter if they are justified or not. Typically, law enforcement sees gang members as guilty by association; however, in most cases, minorities are found guilty by racial preference in accordance of gang affiliation and or membership. Also, juveniles are being targeted for arrest because of the labels given by law...

...UK Membership of the European Union The case for British exit from the European Union 1. Free trade * Britain could have the opportunity to negotiate new free trade agreements with major EU trade partners and fast-growing emerging countries such as the BRICs, MINTs and Sub Saharan Africa * Britain would benefit from freeing itself from many of the EU's complex and expensive laws & regulations 2. Budget savings * Leaving the EU would cut our contributions to the EU budget - a UK fiscal windfall * Food prices would possibly be lower if we left the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) 3. Exports * The UK is Europe's biggest export market. So Europe needs the UK as a trade partner for both to be successful in the long term 4. Economic policy autonomy * The UK would retain greater control over fiscal and monetary policy and also gain more freedom over labour market, competition and environmental policies Some arguments – The case for staying within the EU single market 1. Free trade * Risk of losing trade benefits of being inside single market, lower per capita GDP * Attractiveness of the UK as a destination for FDI would be diminished * Adopting a position similar to Norway (which is outside of the EU) would mean the UK accepting many EU rules without having a say in their formulation 2. Market Access * UK will lose tariff-free access to its largest export market * London would no longer be the EU's...
