Some commentators have, for example, observed that it seems inappropriate to worry about the Co-operative Group potentially losing control over the Co-operative Bank, for fear it will not be able to hold on to its “ethical policies”, when that bank’s ethics are already under suspicion due to the scale (a £269M provision)of its product mis-selling.

Suggestions for Alternative Measures of Budget Balance for South Africa | The following hypothesis was set and tested by this study: is the conventional budget balance, as generally accepted and used, still relevant for South Africa? The paper found that several possible alternatives are available but each must be viewed from the standpoint of their applicability to the South African context. Several were not suitable for South Africa-only because of a serious lack of available data needed to make them operational. The paper also highlights the need for reforms in government financial information in South Africa. | It introduces the bill of quantities mode bid,analyses the problems existing in the quoted price settlement of BOQ,disscusses the right way to determine the settlement value of project alteration,so as to solve the settlement in project alternation. | eng_Latn | 64,601 |
Students’ Unethical Behaviour: Insights from an African Country | Purpose - This paper explores the issue of students’ unethical behaviour by investigating students from Egypt. It investigates participants’ concern toward ethical publishing as well as plagiarism practicing and moral reasoning.Design/methodology/approach - Using a sample of 238 university students in Egypt, the current study deployed the McMahon and Harvey’s model of moral intensity (2006) to understand and explain the unethical behaviour of students in the study. Findings - Research findings showed that while gender does not have any significant effect on intentions to engage in unethical behaviour, level of studies has a partially significant impact in this regard.Originality/value - Being among the first studies tackling this issue in the context of Africa, the paper provides new insights on the status of plagiarism practice by students and investigates the effects of gender and level of studies on ethical behaviour of students. | And what are the implications for the banks’ “ethical makeover”?

What type of education was pushed at Notre Dame before its embracing of national standards? | In 1919 Father James Burns became president of Notre Dame, and in three years he produced an academic revolution that brought the school up to national standards by adopting the elective system and moving away from the university's traditional scholastic and classical emphasis. By contrast, the Jesuit colleges, bastions of academic conservatism, were reluctant to move to a system of electives. Their graduates were shut out of Harvard Law School for that reason. Notre Dame continued to grow over the years, adding more colleges, programs, and sports teams. By 1921, with the addition of the College of Commerce, Notre Dame had grown from a small college to a university with five colleges and a professional law school. The university continued to expand and add new residence halls and buildings with each subsequent president. | Napoleon's noble, moderately affluent background afforded him greater opportunities to study than were available to a typical Corsican of the time. In January 1779, he was enrolled at a religious school in Autun. In May, he was admitted to a military academy at Brienne-le-Château. His first language was Corsican, and he always spoke French with a marked Corsican accent and never learned to spell French properly. He was teased by other students for his accent and applied himself to reading. An examiner observed that Napoleon "has always been distinguished for his application in mathematics. He is fairly well acquainted with history and geography... This boy would make an excellent sailor."[note 3] | eng_Latn | 65,518 |

From theory of mind to divine minds | Filled with literary and pop culture allusions, The Belief Instinct is an entertaining and informative presentation of Bering's particular take on the cognitive science of religion (CSR). Following the prudent strategy common in CSR, Bering does not try to explain ‘religion’, but rather identifies the cognitive and evolutionary foundations for several areas of cultural expression most readers will regard as pertaining to religion. Unlike most previous treatments, Bering sees how much explanatory mileage he can get out of just one cognitive mechanism: theory of mind (ToM). | ABSTRACT Neils Henrik Abel (1802–1829) is quoted as saying, “It appears to me that if one wants to make progress in mathematics one should study the masters.” In the spirit of Abel, the author introduced original sources into three different classroom situations. | eng_Latn | 65,865 |
The narrative construction of the self - Selfhood as a rhizomatic story | In this article, the authors use the metaphor of the rhizome of the French philosophers Deleuze and Guattari as an experimental methodological concept to study the narrative construction of the self. By considering the self as a rhizomatic story, the authors create a story structure that not only offers a useful view on the way in which people narratively construct their selfhood but also stimulates an experiment with alternative, nontraditional presentation forms. The researcher is no longer listening from a distance to the stories of the participant and subsequently represents these stories. She or he becomes a part of the rhizome. The authors illustrate this rhizomatic approach and its research possibilities by presenting story fragments from their research. | Through this article the author presents an experimental collage about the experiment of writing and its relation to the analogies of kinship—an enactment of folk phenomenology. | eng_Latn | 65,937 |

When was Buddha alive? | Buddhism /ˈbudɪzəm/ is a nontheistic religion[note 1] or philosophy (Sanskrit: धर्म dharma; Pali: धम्म dhamma) that encompasses a variety of traditions, beliefs and spiritual practices largely based on teachings attributed to Gautama Buddha, commonly known as the Buddha ("the awakened one"). According to Buddhist tradition, the Buddha lived and taught in the eastern part of the Indian subcontinent, present-day Nepal sometime between the 6th and 4th centuries BCE.[note 1] He is recognized by Buddhists as an awakened or enlightened teacher who shared his insights to help sentient beings end their suffering through the elimination of ignorance and craving.

What concept did Kato Kiyomasa think should be studied every day? | Katō Kiyomasa was one of the most powerful and well-known lords of the Sengoku Era. He commanded most of Japan's major clans during the invasion of Korea (1592–1598). In a handbook he addressed to "all samurai, regardless of rank" he told his followers that a warrior's only duty in life was to "...grasp the long and the short swords and to die". He also ordered his followers to put forth great effort in studying the military classics, especially those related to loyalty and filial piety. He is best known for his quote: "If a man does not investigate into the matter of Bushido daily, it will be difficult for him to die a brave and manly death. Thus it is essential to engrave this business of the warrior into one's mind well." | Friedrich Nietzsche argued that Kant commits an agnostic tautology and does not offer a satisfactory answer as to the source of a philosophical right to such-or-other metaphysical claims; he ridicules his pride in tackling "the most difficult thing that could ever be undertaken on behalf of metaphysics." The famous "thing-in-itself" was called a product of philosophical habit, which seeks to introduce a grammatical subject: because wherever there is cognition, there must be a thing that is cognized and allegedly it must be added to ontology as a being (whereas, to Nietzsche, only the world as ever changing appearances can be assumed). Yet he attacks the idealism of Schopenhauer and Descartes with an argument similar to Kant's critique of the latter (see above). | eng_Latn | 66,221 |

This allows the individual to think and reason in a wider perspective. A combination of behavioural and fMRI studies have demonstrated development of executive functions, that is, cognitive skills that enable the control and coordination of thoughts and behaviour, which are generally associated with the prefrontal cortex. The thoughts, ideas and concepts developed at this period of life greatly influence one's future life, playing a major role in character and personality formation. | As economic and demographic methods were applied to the study of history, the trend was increasingly to see the late Middle Ages as a period of recession and crisis.

Who developed a device that improved on the shortcomings of Scheiner's invention? | The system was later extended to cover larger ranges and some of its practical shortcomings were addressed by the Austrian scientist Josef Maria Eder (1855–1944) and Flemish-born botanist Walter Hecht (de) (1896–1960), (who, in 1919/1920, jointly developed their Eder–Hecht neutral wedge sensitometer measuring emulsion speeds in Eder–Hecht grades). Still, it remained difficult for manufactures to reliably determine film speeds, often only by comparing with competing products, so that an increasing number of modified semi-Scheiner-based systems started to spread, which no longer followed Scheiner's original procedures and thereby defeated the idea of comparability. | In 1984, he was appointed a member of the Order of the Companions of Honour by Queen Elizabeth II on the advice of Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher for his "services to the study of economics".

Diversity and Diversion: How Ethnic Composition Affects Diversionary Conflict | How does a state’s ethnic composition affect its propensity to engage in diversionary conflicts? Recent empirical work examines the political conditions under which domestic unrest compels an embattled leader to initiate conflict abroad. We remain uncertain, however, of what social or demographic characteristics make states particularly prone to diversionary behavior. This article tries to address this gap, examining whether a state’s ethnic structure conditions its leader’s response to domestic discontent. Combining the expansive literatures on ethnic politics and diversionary war yields conflicting expectations here. I find that ethnically fragmented states are significantly more prone to initiating diversionary conflicts, and I show that the greater availability of “conflict opportunities” resulting from transborder ethnic-kin groups, in part, drives this effect.
