Your assignment is to prepare and submit a paper on terms of a contract. On some occasions the courts will read a term into the contract even though there has been no agreement. This could happen where the contract would not make sense if the term were not included.

Implied terms can be implied by statute or by the courts. The Sale of Goods Act 1979 demonstrates how implied terms are used in contract formation. S12 of this Act implies that the person selling the goods has a legal right to sell those goods. Similarly, s13 implies that the goods will correspond to the description of the goods have been advertised in a newspaper or catalog. There is an implied term regarding the satisfactory quality of the goods under s14. It was decided by the court in Benfield (t/a Autoroute Circuits) v Life Racing Ltd [2007]1 that there was no implied guarantee that a particular outcome would be achieved. The court also found that there was no evidence to prove that the defendant was relying on the plaintiff for such a guarantee.

Similarly, the Supply of Goods and Services Act 1982 also has terms that are implied in the contract. Within that Act, there is an implication that the services will be carried out with reasonable skill and care, within a reasonable time and for a reasonable price. In the past, the courts have allowed claims under this Act where the goods have been of unsatisfactory quality, where the order has been delivered late or where the price is deemed to be unreasonable.

In Walker Crisps Stockbrokers Ltd v Savill [2007]2 the court found that there had been a breach of an implied term of the contract that the broker would carry out his duties with reasonable skill and care. However in the case of Evans v Kosmar Villa Holiday Plc [2007]3 the court of appeal overturned the original ruling that there was an implied term that the holiday company would exercise reasonable skill and care in the provision of facilities and service at the&nbsp.holiday complex, including the swimming pool and its surrounds.

Your assignment is to prepare and submit a paper on product packaging design and weakness of a product. The evaluation of today’s trends is an element that helps the designer create the packaging for the product.&nbsp. This is not an easy process because if one is too early with a trend, the customers may not gravitate towards it or if one is too late then it can be interpreted as old news.&nbsp. Careful consideration has to be taken when designing a product package as it represents the product itself and will play a vital role in the selling of that product.

Trends have to be weighed when developing a product package. A trend can be defined as a direction in which something is geared toward, however, it is not guaranteed that people will gravitate toward the trend. When introducing a product to the customer, it is desired that the trend will appeal to a measurable amount of consumers. Some trends come with resistance at first, for example, tattoos were an outward expression from someone who originally may have been deemed rebellious, however they have become a norm standard in society. Trends’ life cycle can be drawn as a hill. They gain upward mobility as more people gravitate toward the trend, but they begin to slope downward as new trends emerge.

All this must be taken into consideration when developing a product package. The designer must consider the cultural, economic, social and technological trends of the consumer. These elements will influence the artistic expression of the designer and the product package development itself. The artistic expression and product design will then influence the media marketing trend and how the product is introduced to the market.

The product package is not isolated to just a manufactured product. When product packaging is referenced it also pertains to anything that utilizes a customer base and influences people. For example, a singer of American Idol, the popular singing contestant show, can be unofficially considered a product as the contestants have package design. The contestants are made over and given style, persona, and image that will appeal to the music trend of today.&nbsp.&nbsp.

Compose a 500 words assignment on meaning of my emotions. Needs to be plagiarism free! Topic: English Essay Perhaps one of the most fascinating aspects of human behavior is our ability to surprise our selves. The factor of unpredictability does not limit it self simply to those around us, the aloof external viewers who observe us from day to day, it also engulfs ourselves as well. When asked, no individual can account or explain all activities they will engage in and how they will react to everything they face on a day to day basis.

However, what can be done with regards to one’s feelings is that they can be anticipated. When one receives a gift, others and oneself both expect happiness, and even if the happiness is not genuine, at least a display of thankfulness and appreciation are the norm. And then there are occasions when expectations are heavily betrayed.

My emotions are not a science. I would much rather place them loftily on the pedestal of art. They are free, function for their own wellbeing, and can hardly be stopped, even when I wish not to feel anything as I recently learned. I used to confidently categorize myself as a rational person and chose not to give into my petty emotions when I could avoid it. However, unfortunately, I experienced, this is not always the case.

A recent, very strong emotional reaction I exhibited led me to re-evaluate myself and question whether I truly am as rational and immune to ‘silly’ emotions as I believed myself to be. A very close friend had been searching for a silver pendant with a Christian cross insignia. After failing to find one she felt exhibited her simplicity (most of them were too decorative for her), she gave up. Only a few days before her birthday, I managed to find a sleek yet simple silver cross and excitedly told her that I had bought it for her birthday. On our next phone call, she informed me she bought the exact same pendant that she happened to find at the mall for herself. On the phone, I said nothing. Made light of it, as if it were not a big deal, and as if it did not bother me that she chose to lower the significance of my gift by getting another one herself. I was to drop by her place for her birthday, and that is what I still intended to do.

Emotional reactions can occur when an individual “chooses to react emotionally rather than react adaptively to a situation”. (Mascolo & Griffin, 149) And this is indeed what I chose. So on that celebrative day, I arrived at her place which was full of guests, most of them whom I knew. As I entered, I could feel a change come over me. I felt surly, annoyed, and vindictive. I behaved moodily with the guests, ignored my friend (besides a brief ‘happy birthday’), and left early despite pleas to stay. I even skipped out on handing her the gift, thinking to myself that she already had one. I under no circumstance expected myself to behave the way I did, nor did I in anyway plan to. I expected to be perhaps a bit cool with her, but to this degree I did not imagine I could go.

I need some assistance with these assignment. demographic transition Thank you in advance for the help! Demographic Transition Demographic transition is a well known” model theory for human population phenomena” (Teitelbaum, 1975). It refers to the series of changes from a high birth and death rate to a low birth and death rate. The transition helps to understand changes in the countries and its subsequent effect on the population.

Demographic transition is made up of four different stages (phase I-IV). During phase I, equilibrium in population size persists. High rate of mortality is seen owing to absence of modern facilities. High infant mortality is seen but this is balanced out by birth rate which is an immediate result of high fertility rate. Phase I is mostly seen in pre-industrialized countries (Galloway & Patrick,1986).

Most developing countries are in the Phase II of the transition. In the second phase, the state of equilibrium in the population is lost and death rate is exceeded by birth rate thereby leading to a “population explosion.” This change is subjected to the fact that better facilities such as good sanitation, nutrition, health facilities etc. are implemented. Such measures help in checking the rate of mortality and increase the lifespan. Though the death rate is lowered the birth rate remains high because most of the people looks upon children as assets who will help bring in money into the family. These growths in population triggers the next stage of transition i.e. Phase III. In this phase a decline in birth rate is seen. This decline is seen because the population is educated and use contraception. Most of the people earn more and therefore do not look upo children as assets and parents realize that children need to be looked after well (Lee, 2003,p 170).“Some of the improvement in child survival is itself a response to parental decisions to invest more in the health and welfare of a smaller number of children” (Nerlove, 1974). In phase IV, both birth and death rates reduce drastically. This is because of societal changes where too many children are looked upon as hindrance in leading a good satisfactory life and hence both fertility and birth rate falls.

According to researchers, the factors that are primarily responsible for declination in the Crude Birth rate include education among women, use of contraceptives, medical facilities which help in survival of babies thereby eliminating need for reproduction of more babies. On the other hand better health facilities, newer technologies and infrastructure, faster transport and higher earnings trigger declination in Crude Death rate.

All developed countries are in stage IV where the women are both educated and independent. Populations in such countries enjoy better medical facilities, faster transportation and use contraception. In stark contrast to this, developing countries have high CBR and CDR because of lack of education among the population, mostly the women, in rural areas who do not understand the problems related to population growth and are not self dependent. Most of these women depend on the earnings of their husbands which automatically creates a pressure on the women to bear children. For example in countries such as Bangladesh and Nepal, women are forced to reproduce till a male child is produced. Again, sex education and use of contraception is not widespread.

In order to assist a developing country to reach the Phase IV of the transition, I would suggest better education and women empowerment so that the women understand their self worth and become less dependent on others and are enabled to take their decisions in life especially when it comes to child bearing age and family planning. Next, I would also suggest improving infrastructure and ensuring better medical facilities and implementation of programs that are aimed to help both pediatric and geriatric population.

Hi, I am looking for someone to write an article on the role of gender stereotypes at the workplace Paper must be at least 2250 words. Please, no plagiarized work! A proof of this is that as of July 2006, there were only eleven women Chief Executive Officers compared to the 489 men that were CEOs of the Fortune 500 companies. Why is this so? Is it because of the idea that women are designed differently and therefore not able to excel as men can and do in the corporate or political world a fact? Or is it because this myth is so widespread that it is considered a reality? Which one is it? Is the proverbial glass ceiling an actuality that women cannot escape from?

The term “glass ceiling” was coined in the 1980s to connote the limited advancement or the “invisible barriers” a woman stumbles upon in a company due to prejudices such as sexism.4 In the study conducted by Brian Welle and Madeline E. Heilman, they concluded that gender stereotypes are at the root of the glass ceiling that women encounter in the business and political arenas.5 Gender stereotypes are “conceptualized cognitive structures” of the characteristics, behaviors, attitudes, and even physical appearances of males and females.6 Thomas Eckes further explained that, based on his study on the range-of-fit effects theory which measures a subtype’s suitability to a particular gender and situation, “female and male subtypes would differ in the range of situations with which they are commonly associated.”7 To cite a specific situation, males rated as more suitable for the situation presented by a job meeting.8 This means that men are recognized as more suitable in a boardroom than women. “This fact, which is based on mathematical computations, can also be explained through social psychology as done by Welle and Heilman.

Welle and Heilman explained that there are two contrasting views in the workplace that deter and limit women from being promoted to the positions they deserve.9 The societal and accepted views about how a particular work should be done,&nbsp.who should be doing that work, and the qualities needed to succeed contradict the views about women and their roles in society.
