Today, the United States is the fifth largest country in the world, with over 294 Embassies and Consulates around the world our influence is quite significant. Ancient Rome contained about 20% of the world’s population of the time; it is remembered as the greatest empire in history, with ties all over the eastern hemisphere from Britain, to Egypt, to all the way to China. Ancient Rome as we know contributed significantly to modern society and is not without influence on us here in the United States. Rome’s influences included aspects ranging from their public benefits, to their use of glass, to their use of concrete, to their administration system. But, there are three influences of Ancient Rome that still reverberate through time and still have an incredible impact in our society. The first influence that Rome gave us would be their form of government, specifically their Republic Era that lasted nearly five hundred years. Ancient Rome also gifted us with the idea of benefits for those who can’t provide for themselves. Furthermore, from Ancient Rome we got the idea of providing public services that are funded with tax dollars.
First off let’s compare the similarities between the civilizations of Ancient Rome and the modern day U.S. My first thought when thinking about comparisons was their money management. One reason I thought of money management was because both civilizations spend money on unreasonable things, other than spending money on things to improve the civilization. Rome spent money on ridiculous things, such as, engineering and building the biggest castle that
We may become subject to product liability claims, which could harm our financial condition and liquidity if we are not able to successfully defend or insure against such
"A contract is a legally enforceable promise or set of promises. In other words, when promises have the status of contract, the contracting party harmed by a breach of the contract is entitled to obtain legal remedies against the breaching party" (Mallor et al., 2015, p. 320)
2,000 years prior, the world was ruled by Rome. From England to Africa and from Syria to Spain, one in each four individuals on earth lived and passed on under Roman law. This Empire in the main century AD blended refinement with ruthlessness and could abruptly stagger from development, quality and energy to dread, oppression and eagerness. Romans had attributes that set them apart from each other set gathering of antiquated individuals. The Romans were viewed as a more propelled civilization, and are altogether known for their lovely architecture and art. Its society impacted the development of western human progress and its commitment was through its radiant state and domain. Ancient Rome impacted western development to an exceptionally
Media usage and its influence are one of the reasons of decline in moral values. Like people of Rome spent their time watching plays and bloody games, an average American spends many hours a day using media. According to Nielsen's Total Audience Report, Americans aged 18 and older spend more than 11 hours a day using media devices. Although media usage has advantages, it also has negative effects. Because of advanced media technology, people are able to find information about almost anything, but they are also easily

In today’s media it is almost impossible to find a show that does not contain some sort of explicit sexual material. Over 70% of television shows include some sort of sexual content (http://lubbockonline.com/stories/111005/nat_111005043.shtml). Adolescents are starting to engage in sexual activities at earlier ages and they do not understand that the media does not accurately portray the risks and dangers associated with having sex. With this adolescents are also becoming more interested and curious to learn about sex and their bodies. The rise of access to the internet and ease of access to pornographic videos at home has been linked to the decline in sexual crimes (http://mises.org/daily/3080). With all of the positives and negative linked to sex and the media it is extremely hard to decide whether it is good or bad for society.
Insurance is a very important part of modern life and business. In this paper I will discuss the basic concepts of insurance, claims-made and occurrence liability policies, factors for selecting an insurance company and policies, and the difference between workers compensation and liability insurance.
Lisa’s insurance broker did not make sure she had the proper coverage to reduce her liability if something were to happen to the art gallery. Lisa’s insurance broker, Homer, broke his fiduciary duty to Lisa by not ensuring she had the proper coverage she needed; given that Lisa was responsible for the safekeeping of the artwork that was on consignment. Homer should have taken into consideration that nearly all her inventory, which was on consignment, would not be insured if a fire occurred. Nonetheless, Homer reassured Lisa that she was “well covered” with her policy when she should have had a policy where she would be covered for losses to artwork on consignment as well as fires that didn’t originate on her building
Describe tort law and the types of damages in a tort lawsuit. Provide two examples of tort damages in the business environment.
Also, the tort victim is usually sufficiently compensated through insurance rather than if they claimed against the employee as the master has the ‘deepest pocket’[2]. However, recent developments in the law on vicarious liability not only makes the employer liable for acts that are ‘directly’ connected with what they are employed to do, but it is now established that an employer may be liable for the unauthorised acts of an employee, where those acts are ‘closely connected’ with the nature of the wrongdoer’s employment. The principle of vicarious liability can also burden the operation of a business by placing a disproportionate amount of responsibility on an employer. More money needs to be spent on training, employee’s characteristics need to be assessed and higher costs will be passed on to the consumer.

The job of an event planner is much more than hanging up streamers, laying table clothes down and checking the quality of the lights. Event planning requires tedious work and strenuous planning. Also called meeting and convention planners, they do everything involved with making sure these events go as anticipated. This includes, working with the client to choose a fabulous and affordable location, hiring quality caterers, selecting perfect entertainment, and even arranging lodging and transportation for attendees who are visiting from afar (McKay). The goal of an event planner is to make sure the event runs very much as anticipated, which includes multiple plans to combat what-if scenario, because no event will ever run exactly as planned.
