    Australian Pows

    Many accounts from POW’s in Europe tell of daring escapes rather than day to day atrocities. Of the 8.600 ANZACs captured in Europe 265 died – most captured from Mediterranean and Middle Eastern campaigns and RAAF pilots that parachuted into enemy territory. As for civilian and nurse POW’s conditions were equally terrible – for although they did not participate in physical labour, survival was mostly based on luck due to the disorganisation of civilian camps. Of the 65 nurses returning to Australia, 32 were interred (the other 33 died tragically) and of those only 24 survived.…

    Vertical development is both more lucrative and riskier for the developer, and therefore, complementary with financial theory that the greater the risk, the greater the return. In general, a vertical project will add significantly more multiple of value than a horizontal project. That is, with each addition of a developmental component and/or activity more value is created, ultimately making the project more lucrative. Conversely, horizontal development creates no operational value, as the land/lots are developed to sell.…

    HSM 240 Week 2 Assignment

    While reading Chapter 2 on The Role of Government in Policy Making, I noticed that in the text it stated that “all fields of practice are affected by the social and organizational policy made by judicial decisions.” (Donald E. Chambers and Kenneth R. Wedel. Published by Allyn and Bacon pg.35). The YWCA provides women and children with several different services. It is vital that the organization is careful of what they are doing with their clients and observe the policies for these social programs. The judicial branch of the government has a lot of power over these social programs and can completely discontinue the program under certain circumstances. This is done in order to keep the organization consistent with court orders. “The judicial branch restricts or expands the power of government administrators and officials so that they are consistent with past court decisions, with governmental principles, and (sometimes) with the fundamental constitutional rights of citizens.” (Donald E. Chambers and Kenneth R. Wedel. Published by Allyn and Bacon). The laws that are put in place for this organization or organizations similar to the YWCA can influence the decision making and its day to day operations by a simple change in law. A change in law could mean that the requirements have been altered or changed and in order to service their clients properly, there are guidelines that need to be met. “The judiciary both creates anew and reshapes old social policy. (Donald E. Chambers and Kenneth R. Wedel. Published by Allyn and Bacon). I found that the YWCA has to only engage in activities related to its mission or purpose. “The Association may not engage in any activities that do not further the Mission or its purposes as set forth in the Articles of Incorporation and these Bylaws.” (http://www.cortlandywca.org/pdf/ywcabylaws07.pdf) Some of the laws read were very particular about the dos and don’ts of the organization. The information read shows that these laws…

    How far was NAACP responsible for success of Civil Right's Campaign?

    It is useful to begin by considering why essay-writing has long been the method of choice for assessment in history. The chief reason is that no other method provides as effective a means of testing a student's comprehension of a topic. We want you to show us that not only have you acquired a knowledge of the topic but also that you fully understand the topic and the issues raised by it. Essays test understanding by asking you to select and re-organise relevant material in order to produce your own answer to the set question.…
