Fatigue is a growing concern and issue in the aviation industry. Although it has been for some time, recently mounting workloads and stress have factored into creating an escalating problem with real casualties and repercussions. “Pilot fatigue, heavy workloads… may have contributed to an air ambulance crashing into the sea at night during a medical mission…” (Crash Blamed 2006 p.31). Fatigue is an “insidious” condition that affects a pilot in a way that might make him feel justified in his decisions
Chapter 2: Literature Review In this chapter, the concept of authenticity will be discussed and analyzed as a general construct and in the context of branding and marketing, as well as the authentic leadership traits attributed to individuals, alongside a brief overview of the social media networks and the authentic behaviour of their users online.

1. Introduction Butorphanol (butorphanol) is a mixed opioid receptor agonist, which mainly causes the excitement of κ receptors; it does not cause the excitement of the μ receptor, and its role on δ receptor activity is very low. Its analgesic effect on long-time pain, respiratory depression is strong and a low incidence of drug dependence [1,2]. At present, research on butorphanol is mostly conducted in intraspinal analgesic medication and the intravenous analgesia [3]. The role of butorphanol
The impact of exploration-exploitation is unpredictable and there is no general rule how to trade-off between these two learning in dynamic environments (Laureiro-Martínez, Brusoni, & Zollo, 2009). It is difficult to integrate both exploration and exploitation simultaneously to improve efficiency in short terms and innovation in long-term as different firm has a different way of thinking and routines for exploration compared to those needed for exploitation (Gupta et al., 2006). Understanding how
Research on Peace Agreements Peace agreements are the milestone of peace processes. Once the parties to a conflict decide to sit in the negotiation table with the purpose of signing a peace agreement there is reason to believe that they are committed to find a resolution to the ongoing conflict. Peace agreements bring together conflicting parties on the negotiation table. At the same time they specify policy interventions which deal with conflict issues as perceived and presented by each party
“I’m sorry,” words I often say too much. It is like admitting defeat to the situation. Though I believe what I did was not wrong, they say I have to apologize. I want to protest but I need to show remorse and that it will not happen again. I have apologized so much that I don’t even mean it anymore. I forget that it is supposed to be sincere and real but when I say it means nothing. The feelings have gone away and I’m like a broken record apologizing for everything I did wrong. Before I believed
Ireland in 1921 In this essay I am going to explain why Irelandwas partitioned into two parts in 1921. The two partitioned parts are known today as Northern Ireland (Ulster) and The Republic of Ireland (Eire). Ireland was partitioned in 1921 after an agreement was made by the Anglo-Irish Treaty which was finally passed by the House of Commons without it being blocked by the House of Lords. In my essay I will describe of the factors, which contributed to the partition in Ireland in 1921. These
Push, Pull or Drag in....Another Misleading TV Commercial Have you ever been watching TV and seen a car commercial that says, “ Come on down to your local Ford Automotive, and you can get a car of your choice for just $129 a month (Spitzer, 2003).” Some have even used lines like, “Do whatever you have to do push, pull or drag your car in, and drive away in a brand new car” (Spitzer, 2003). The commercial may never stop to give you the details of the qualification requirements for the cars. So

Workplace spirituality is a sophisticated concept (Kinjerski & Skrypnek, 2004). Generally speaking, it involves the sense of well-being, the feeling of the whole self involved in the work, the feeling of connection to others and something larger than oneself, and a sense of transcendence (Ashmos & Duchon, 2000; Ingersoll, 2010; Kinjerski & Skrypnek, 2004; Kinjerski, V. M., & Skrypnek, 2008; Rego & Pina e Cunha, 2008; Sheep, 2004). Individuals view their work as sacred (Ingersoll, 2010), while workplace
What are the challenges college students are facing today? Students are under a lot of pressure these days because of budget cuts in education, rising tuition costs, dwindling Federal Student Loans, hard to obtain private student loans, and to make matters worse, high unemployment graduate numbers. Today's college students are having to change their anticipated day of graduation, because California's educational system has been hit with a massive budget crisis. This set back has led
The New Economic Policy of 1921 " The real meaning of the New Economic policy is that we have met a great defeat in our plans and that we are now making a strategic retreat… Before we are utterly smashed, let us retrace our steps and begin to build on a new foundation," - said Lenin in his speech on the 22nd of October 1921. His speech is considered to be one of the frankest admissions of failure ever made by a leader of a great nation. It is clear that the general reason of NEP's introduction
The Reasons War Communism Was Abandoned in 1921 In order to win the ongoing civil war against the White armies the new communist government found that it was vital to keep the red army supplied with food, ammunition, weapons and clothes. They had to find ways of producing the massive amounts of provisions needed. As a result Lenin imposed a set of very harsh rules known as 'War Communism'. These rules meant the government took charge of all industrial factories and businesses in the towns
In this paper, I will detail how the Tulsa Race Riot of 1921 was not only a civil rights movement on the part of the black people in Tulsa, but also a detailed look into the way that civil rights was handled in a deeply racially divided city as Tulsa, Oklahoma. My research will feature many of the different survivors who were able to speak out about the injustice of the Tulsa Race Riot before they died; many of these people were children at the time. I also have a series of secondary sources from
Consistancy in Britain's Policy in Ireland in the Period 1798-1921 Social policy – in the 1830’s, Ireland had the best health Land and Economic policy – land issues were ignored until 1870: - first land Act – irrelevant - second land Act – political rather than economic - Wyndham Act – the government was becoming less and less convinced that property was the ‘bedrock of civilisation’ – it was the product of a shift in mentality. - 1890’s – HUGE economic reforms Political policy
“But after a moment a sense of waste and ruin overcame him. There they were, close together and safe and shut in; yet so chained to their separate destinies that they might as well been half the world apart.” (The Age of Innocence, pg 175 ). The Age of Innocence is written by Edith Wharton and is placed in New York during the 1870’s. A wealthy lawyer, Newland Archer is engaged to sweet socialite May Welland. At the first glance, it seems to be a perfect match, but when May's beautiful cousin, Countess
Immortality and Myth in The Age of Innocence Edith Wharton’s books are considered, by some, merely popular fiction of her time. But we must be careful not to equate popularity with the value of the fiction; i.e., we must not assume that if her books are popular, they are also primitive. Compared to the works of her contemporary and friend, Henry James, whose books may seem complex and sometimes bewildering; Wharton’s The Age of Innocence appears to be a simplistic, gossipy commentary of New York
are just a different way of drawing up an identical game plan to control a particular market. This falls right into the conversation about the Packers and Stockyards Act of 1921 as it relates to why it was created, its relevance today, and how we can apply it to today’s marketplace. The Packers and Stockyards Act (PSA) of 1921 was put in place to ensure the presence of competition in the livestock, meat, and poultry markets. The reason this was put in place was strictly do to the upcoming oligopoly
We, written by Yevgeny Zamyatin in 1921 as a futurist depiction of protagonist D-503 living in a dystopian society controlled during the Russian revolution of 1917. It is the story of a head engineer writing in his journal who is living under the control of the benefactor, following laws in order to have the most efficient state and infallible happiness. The citizens are not given names they are given number and every hour of each of their lives are directed by a table. Zamyatin constructs the motif
