...Abstract This report aims to make a comparison of the Chinese and Indian power sector in terms of progress and reforms they have made to deal with their increasing demand requirements. The comparison of India was made with China because, India, when just independent, was much similar to China in terms of demographics and infrastructure availability. The power sectors of both the countries are studied and the differences are probed into. Much of these differences come in as a result of the way in which reform bodies were instituted and the reforms were carried out in both the countries. China has surged far ahead of India in its quest to satisfy the demand for power. Through this study, the authors wish to draw out the underlying methods through which China has achieved considerable success in power sector reforms. There are four ways in which China went ahead of India and which can be replicated in India. These are the way in which the power monolith was broken down in such a way that there was coordination among various bodies concerned, the way in which various projects were financed and approved through BOT, the way in which China has been emphasizing on production and conservation of power efficiently through market based incentives and the way in which it has been sensitive towards environmental issues by research and adoption of clean, less polluting technologies. The authors feel that these are the significant learnings, which one can take home and apply in India. ...

...Communication is the major connection of this world. When communicating, there are two main forms of communication; Verbal and Non Verbal. Communication is defined as the process of creating and sharing meaning through the use of symbols (Dobkin-Pace, 2010). Communication shaped the person that you are and gives you a distinct identity. There are certain channels and contexts that are very important to the communication process due to the means of delivery or transportation. Also your environment and culture has an enormous influence on your communication skills. AS communicators we are improving our skills of communication every day. Verbal communication is messages expressed through formal language. It can be oral, written, or even signed and still can be verbal as long as words are involved. Nonverbal communication is messages expressed through symbols rather than words. Nonverbal communication can include hand gestures, facial expressions, touching, the inflection of your voice, the clothes you wear, and even silence. For example if someone ask you a question but rather than verbally answering, your facial expression gives the answer to the question. Before any messages can be exchanged there has to be a type of delivery or transportation called channels. Channels are the mediums that carry messages between communicators. (Communication in a Changing World, 2nd Edition. MBS Direct p. 24). The choice of a channel is an important part of the communication situation...

...South Piedmont Community College Scholarship Essay Financial Needs I am a student at SPCC. I just decided to go back to school this semester to advance my career. I was told that I no longer qualify for federal grants, so I am looking for a way to pay for college. School is very important to me and I enjoy learning. I am a mother of 3, with a child on the way. My Fiancé works at Mt Mariah Baptist Church in Matthews NC and does not bring home much. I work at Time Warner Cable and also do not bring home enough to afford school without financial assistance. My classes for the Fall semester is about a thousand dollars and that does not include the four books that I have to buy, which will average out to about $150 a book. I decided to go back to school after taking a good look at my future at the current company that I work for. All the advancement opportunities require a bachelor degree or better. I plan on transferring to UNC and completing my bachelor there. It seems like the most logical way to go, instead of wasting all that money on all these new online schools that credits most likely won’t transfer. I have tried to go to online schools like Strayer University, ECPI, and Kaplan. Even though I was focused and determine, I eventually realized that these types of classroom settings was not for me and that the cost of these schools were too expansive. They swallowed up all my grant money and I still had to get loans to cover the remaining balance of school. That is...

...The youngest children are the most vulnerable to maltreatment because they don’t know what to do.(American spcc) Smaller kids are the most vulnerable because they don’t know right from wrong and can easily be tricked. “The US has the worst records among industrialised nations losing on average almost 5 children every year to child abuse.(American spcc) The US is one of the places with the greatest rate of abuse we lose kids every year who don’t deserve it. There are a lot of kids being abused, but one major issue is because not much is done to the abuser. Laws protecting children should be enforced because predators are getting off easy. Once a child molestor has chosen their victim, they work patiently to develop a relationship with them.(Goetz) Child molesters are smart in order to get what they want they work by gaining the child’s trust. “Predators favorite excuse I will never do it again”(Goetz) Usually predators claim they’ll never do harm to again but they...

...the main points of parts of the paper: a description of the study or project, its methods, the results, and the conclusions. (Bullock, Goggin & Weinberg 2013, p150). Description Abstracts are usually much briefer then informative abstracts and provide much less information. Rather than summarizing the entire paper, a descriptive abstract functions more as a teaser, proving a quick overview that invites the reader to read the whole. And last but not least Proposal Abstracts contain the same basic information as informative abstracts, but their purpose is very different. You prepare proposal abstracts to persuade someone to let you write on a topic, pursue a project, conduct an experiment, or present a paper at a scholarly conference.

...authorities to be on the path towards delinquency” (Center on Juvenile and Criminal Justice, 2013). They were created and designed by the child savers to target youth who showed signs of delinquent behavior. Houses of refuge were located in impoverished or urban areas. They eventually became overpopulated because it, like adult prisons, was housing delinquent juveniles with not form of rehabilitation. A new plan of action had to take place to correct this system. The top goal of the juvenile justice system is to prevent crime and by juveniles and rehabilitate those that were accused of offenses. The juvenile justice system began finding alternative ways to deal with deviant youth. In 1874 The Society for the prevention of cruelty to children or SPCC was created in New York. This organization was created to protect youth exposed to neglect or abuse at home and at school. Parens Patriae was introduced and it allowed to the state to take over custody and rights over a juvenile that was subjected to any form of neglect, or abuse at home. Youth today are not really treated fairly. It seems that the old way of punishing offenders resurfaced and youth are being...

...1. Examine how Congress writes environmental laws and EPA provides the technical, operational, and legal details needed to carry them out. At least 1/2 page summary A number of laws serve as EPA's foundation for protecting the environment and public health. However, most laws do not have enough detail to be put into practice right away. EPA is called a regulatory agency because Congress authorizes us to write regulations that explain the critical details necessary to implement environmental laws. In addition, a number of Presidential Executive Orders (EOs) play a central role in our activities http://www3.epa.gov/region9/enforcement/intro.html Under the Congressional Review Act (CRA), a rule generally cannot take effect until EPA submits a rule report to each House of Congress and to the Comptroller General of the United States (head of the U.S. Government Accountability Office). Rules that are not considered "major" under the CRA, may take effect as they otherwise would under other applicable law once a rule report is submitted. A rule that is "major" may take effect no earlier than 60 calendar days after Congress receives the rule report or the rule is published in the Federal Register (FR), whichever is later. The CRA also provides procedures by which Congress can rescind a rule within a specified period of time using expedited procedures. 2. Go to http://www.epa.gov/.

Although best practices vary from industry to industry and by the products shipped there are a number of best practices that can be applied to most companies. Best practices here are concerned with: • • • • • • • • • Housekeeping Customization Deterioration Special storage facilities Stock location Loss prevention Space optimization Stock reduction Warehouse efficiency 7.1 HOUSEKEEPING When we think of “housekeeping” we tend to think of the common phrase: “A place for everything and everything in its place.” But housekeeping means more than this. Indeed, good housekeeping practices – itemized below, eliminate clutter which is a common cause of accidents, such as slips, trips, and falls, and fires and explosions, reduce the chances of harmful materials entering the body (e.g., dusts, vapors), and improve productivity (the right tools and materials for the job will be easy to find). An orderly workplace will impress all who enter it – employees, visitors, customers, etc., help the company to keep it’s inventory to a minimum (easier to keep an accurate count of inventories), help the company to make the best use of its space, and make the workplace neat, comfortable and pleasant – not a dangerous eyesore. More importantly, good housekeeping improves the company’s image - it reflects a...
