    This paper provides an analysis of both international and Australian law on the liability of air carriers and compensation for delay. It discusses the need for States to develop standard regulatory responses to delay in international carriage. It uses the EC Regulation and the New Zealand legislation as models for developing clearer legal principles and ensuring appropriate compensation for passengers affected by delay. It concludes that domestic regulation and guidance regarding delay and overbooking of flights is required to ensure appropriate liability of air carriers and clarity for passengers

    The economic problems felt by the lower class of society who then run Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) independently, and this in Indonesia is a phenomenon that has indicators of rapid growth. The purpose of this study is to find out how the role and results of the implementation of small and medium enterprises in order to improve community welfare. Qualitative research methods. As for the results obtained, the Role of Small and Medium Enterprises in Prospering the Economy of Village Communities, namely as a seller of Fried Chicken or you could say fried chicken, must be familiar to the Indonesian people. The results of the research show that there are several indicators of successful community development through Fried Chicken fast food, including: a) The emergence of public awareness in increasing and developing potential as fast food entrepreneurs, b) The community also gets increased income from the fast food sector, c) The number of enthusiasts to open this small and medium business by producing Fried Chicken fast foo

    Laterality: Motor Learning & the Non-Dominant Hand

    The cultural design of the United States of America has caught up its left-handed individuals in a righthander\u27s world. Daily the left-hander or sinistral is forced to cope with problems which present themselves only to sinistrals, posing no difficulty to right-handers or dextrals. It was the intention of this investigation to determine whether, as a result of this emphasis on dextrality training, sinistrals could more quickly learn motor tasks with the non -dominant hand than could dextrals. The hypothesis upon which the investigation was founded was stated in null form: no significant difference exists between motor learning displayed by sinistrals as compared to dextrals in performing a novel motor task with the non-dominant hand. The experimental design of the investigation was that of two group, multiple experimental sessions. The subjects were volunteers from the spring semester 1977 physical education classes at Western Kentucky University. The twelve subjects participating in the experiment were female, non-physical education majors between the ages of eighteen and twenty-one. Six of the subjects made up the right-hand dominant sample, the remaining six subjects made up the left-hand dominant sample. Subjects were required to complete twelve experimental sessions within a four week period. At each session each subject performed the experimental task of juggling two tennis balls in the non-dominant hand for two periods of three minutes. These performances were scored using the dichotomous factors of catches and trials. The data collected from the experiment were analyzed by using an analysis of covariance test to ascertain levels of significance reached by each sample group for the factors of catches and trials. An analysis of covariance test was also used to ascertain the levels of significance reached by the twelve sample subjects taken as one group, for the factors of catches and trials. Finally, an analysis of covariance test was used to ascertain whether either sample group learned significantly more than the other group for the factors of catches and trials. It was found that both sample groups reached significant levels of learning for the factor of catches; however, only the right-hand dominant sample reached significance for the factor of trials. The twelve sample subjects, taken as one group, reached significant levels of learning for the factor of catches, but not trials. Finally, neither sample group learned significantly more than the other group for the factors of catches and trials. The analyses of data of this investigation resulted in a failure to reject the hypothesis. Three possible explanations for this failure to reject the hypothesis were advanced: 1) Conditioning of sinistrals to negative self-images, resulting in psychological attitude negatively effecting motor performance. 2) The sample sinistrals, eighteen to twenty-one years of age, did not suffer the process of conversion to dextrality training that sinistrals of previous decades suffered. 3) The theories of the generality of transfer versus the specificity of transfer of motor skills

    Traditional professions+ elements of tourist integrated development in rural areas

    Integrated development seen at the level of local community assumes a global approach of all influence factors over these on the one hand, but also the evolution of these in time on another hand. In these conditions there must be taken in consideration a series of aspects as: economic activities, local community and environment protection. The purpose of this paper is to analyze traditional trades/professions from rural areas in order to surprise these interconnections with environmental factors, economic aspects and local community. Traditional trades can be looked at from many points of view. First of them and the oldest one is the economic point of view. Employed populations in traditional fields are insuring a source of income and contribute to a raise of local wellbeing. The second aspect is bound by the attraction possibility of tourists in the area through the angle of these original activities, which are ever rarer due to the economic progress and competition. A third aspect, under which we are going to follow the trades, is referring to the development of the feeling of pride and community belonging, the maintaining of youth in the locality, at valuating the customs and folk traditions as a first step towards the perpetuation of these in the future. Last but not least we will analyze the connections between traditional trades and the natural framework as well as the impact of the above mentioned on the environment.integrated tourism, local community, rural, traditional handicrafts, customs

    Balanced Teaching: The Role of Caring in Effective Teaching

    Get PDF
    Despite a rich history of research and reform, educational scholars have not yet formulated a working definition of effective teaching that encompasses the complexities of the learning process. Today, as policy makers demand measurable outcomes, teachers are increasingly aware of their need to be effective in motivating their students to achieve. In order to do so, teachers need to establish balanced practices that incorporate all three of the domains of learning: (a) affective, (b) behavioral, and (c) cognitive. Currently, the emphasis is on the behavioral and cognitive aspects of learning, but, frequently, the affective aspects are ignored. However, affect plays an important role in the learning process. Teachers can capitalize on students\u27 affect to achieve cognitive and behavioral outcomes when they communicate care to their students. This project was designed to encourage teachers to explore the role of the teacher/student relationship and demonstrations of care in order to maximize their effectiveness with their students

    Pennsylvania\u27s Appellate Judges, 1969-1994

    Get PDF
    This article studies Pennsylvania\u27s appellate bench from January 1, 1969 to August 1, 1994. It lists the judges and president judges in chronological order and offers a statistical analysis examining such issues as how judges assumed the appellate bench, how long they stayed, and why they left. Four themes emerge from the data: Pennsylvania has had many career judges; an overwhelming percentage of Pennsylvania\u27s appellate judges have had certain common characteristics; there have been some significant differences between judges initially appointed to the appellate bench and judges initially elected to that bench; and there have been some significant differences between judges selected to the different appellate courts. These findings may be helpful to policy-makers debating judicial reform
