These complexes might be useful in many applications. Moreover, metal chelate with metals at high oxidation state is active in the enhancement of photodegradation of plastic and therefore, might serve as photocatalyst to treat the plastic waste pollution problem. The effect of number of methyl group in these complexes has been also studied. This work also deals with the photochemical reaction and determination of quantum yields and reactivity ratios of the photodecomposition processes of the different complexes in DMSO. Spectroscopic methods have been used for the elucidation of the photochemical reactions, and determination of the quantum yields of the photochemical decomposition processes. 92 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The business world of today looks considerably different than twenty years ago; companies used to compete domestically, but the number of organizations that continues to do so becomes very scarce. Globalization forces organizations to expand their boundaries and look for new markets. Because of this relatively new phenomenon, more and more companies are sending their employees on international assignments. Traditionally, these expatriates have been men. Despite the need and rise of deployment of expatriates, the number of women in such positions remains low (2-15%). However, if companies want to keep on sending their best and most qualified staff, they cannot rely primarily on men anymore. The increasing demand for expatriates can be met by deploying more women. However, statistical figures show that this is not so easy in practice. This thesis clarifies possible explanations for the scarcity of females on international assignments and researches the ambition of both males and females to pursue an international career. Therefore, this research would be of particular interest for both individuals with international ambitions as well as companies that are sending individuals abroad. 108 pp. Englisch.

The basic information for the study was generated from the household survey. Gender relations were explored from a school. The study also tried to examine the role of caste on education and development. Nepal is a country of patriarchal system and every development aspect including education is influenced by it. As a result, girls and women are disadvantaged in every development sector. My study explored the gender inequalities existing in school and society. Although girls were enrolled in school efforts were not made for creating learning environment at home. However, boys were also the victim of gender discrimination, but in school. Being weak in study teachers did not pay attention in their study as compared to girls. It means that although the forms and intensity of discrimination is changing overtime gender discrimination still exists both in school and society. Caste is another factor that is affecting the education and development. My study showed that caste was not a problem in school whereas it was an issue for development in society. 112 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book explains the current and possible future spectator ticket pricing strategies of clubs from the English Premier League (EPL), the world s most successful football league. It shows what variables and considerations EPL clubs use when deciding what prices they should charge for their tickets. Possible future pricing strategies will focus on those currently used in the airline and hotel industries, namely revenue management and dynamic pricing. Its primary goal is to investigate whether dynamic pricing could be utilized as a future ticket pricing strategy for English Premier League clubs, and if so what are the benefits and how could it be achieved The book has three central sections. The first introduces a theoretical framework for a systematic approach to strategic pricing. The second section uses that framework to investigate how EPL clubs construct their ticket pricing strategies and from what basis of information they use to formulate these prices. The third section focuses on future possible strategies and whether dynamic pricing could be utilized by EPL clubs. 72 pp. Englisch.

But should the direct translation strategy be preferred over other microstrategies, and what makes a translator choose one strategy over another In order to answer this question, I chose to examine one of our time's most beloved animated films, Shrek. By conducting a comparative analysis of the macro- and microstrategies applied to the subtitled and dubbed Danish translations of Shrek, I have investigated which choices the translator made and why. Furthermore, I have estimated whether the applied strategies are suitable or not. The target audience of the study is anybody with an interest in translation strategies. It may be of use to language students or people who in general wonder about translation choices. 76 pp. Englisch.

In view of this, this topic is particularly interested in establishing the kind of relationship that do, and should exist between the particular tourist attraction, its surrounding environment as well as the architecture of the built forms on the site, for the facilitation of tourist activities. Over the years, there has been an influx of so many different foreign building materials, into the Ghanaian markets. These foreign materials invade the building industry and are being used irrespective of how well they satisfy the basic requirements of good architectural design. The case studies considered are eco-tourist sites which have managed to preserve a great deal of the natural site as well as incorporating its surrounding environment (both built and inbuilt) into an experience for tourists. 96 pp. Englisch.

By then, the pastorate covered Kirinyaga and Riakanau in Mbeere of Embu County. The book goes on to show how the pioneer missionaries such as Laight, Butcher and Hillard encountered African traditional practices such as circumcision, dances, killing of twin children, modes of disposing the dead, taboos and abominations, herbal medicine, marriage and betrothal, clannism, African worship and general mode of life. They dismissed all African cultures as bad. In view of this, the author shows how Gospel and Culture got into unending conflict to date. In other words, where is the clear demarcating line between Gospel and Culture Can we erase all elements of culture in African Christianity In demonstrating the impact of Christian missions (1912-2012), the book outlines the histories of some leading figures whose success is beholden to the missionary labors. It is a must read for all keen students of African histories and cultures! 120 pp. Englisch.

These artists take many different well-known and less-known lyrics, music, and spoken word and combine them together. Through the lenses of post-colonial, gender, and queer theories, I examine Witi Ihimaera's creative work. As the first published playwright in New Zealand and as an English professor at the University of Auckland, Witi Ihimaera is a role model and leader to many other Maori and New Zealand playwrights and writers. I am most interested in understanding what and how he has been influenced as an artist. I craft a document that extends the idea of a written word in a Maori context, in which I explore the major influences on Ihimaera as a theatrical creator and influencer of other Maori artists. In addition, I use examples from Witi Ihimaera's fictional novel The Uncles Story, as well as many other of his plays and novels, to show examples of influences from Maori culture, Mormonism, and his homosexuality on Ihimaera's work. 96 pp. Englisch.

Thus, transclusion provides an interesting platform for authors to quote text from other documents in a way such that the quoted text can be compared alongside its original context, and changes in the original document are reflected automatically in the user document. Several researchers have partially implemented transclusion using various techniques and technologies. The issue of transcluding text from a dynamic source page still persists because dynamic content changes have not been reflected.

The findings indicated that the major motivating need in NFE participation was the desire to acquire basic education (literacy and innumeracy). Other needs included improvement in level of agricultural production, skills in income generation, awareness on rights and gender issues, home management, improvement on health and nutrition and access to credit. Major constraints were women's domestic roles and responsibilities. To achieve effective participation, involvement of NFE beneficiaries and implementers in the planning process, sensitization before implementation, identification of problem-centred programmes and monitoring and evaluation need to be emphasized. 84 pp. Englisch.

At a critical point in Modern Egyptian History, Egyptian Dramatist Mahmoud El Lozy provides the fundamental Egyptian response to any attempt at jeopardising the increasingly valuable and threatened Egyptian National dignity. Samy Selim's dissection of El Lozy's epic trilogy shows us that, like all things Egyptian, even the playwright has limited control over the full weight of his creation. 'We That Are Young' is indeed the encapsulation of the exemplary Egyptian revolutionary struggle against tyranny we see today. 68 pp. Englisch.

The purposes of the study were to identify and to explore teachers' perceptions of reflective practices as forms of professional development in a metropolitan public school and to develop theoretical propositions that may explain teachers' perceptions of reflective practices. Data were collected via interviews with 11 teachers and the director of professional development. Open, axial, and selective coding were used to analyze interviews and document data to generate theoretical propositions related to teachers' perceptions of reflective practices. A major finding was that the teachers interviewed had negative and positive perceptions of the types of reflective practices offered by the district. The teachers' negative perceptions were based on the limited involvement of teachers in deciding which reflective practices should be offered by the district. By implementing a full range of reflective practices as recommended by participants of the study, teachers will be able to identify additional areas of improvement which may lead to effective teaching and greater student success. 108 pp. Englisch.

Four essays bring new perspectives to original subjects examining Renaissance Architecture with the Castle of Madrid, Baroque Sculpture with Bernini, Contemporary Art with the work of Michael Asher and Daniel Buren, and African Art with Bodys Isek Kingelez. First, the Castle of Madrid, unique for its facade covered by majolica, is analysed in the light of alchemical, gender oriented and architectural practice at the Court of Francis I. Second, admired for his sculptures in marble, Bernini is less celebrated for his portrait busts in bronze. Neglected by art historians, a better understanding of the metal is suggested. Third, the two contemporary artists, Michael Asher and Daniel Buren, are often amalgamated, assimilated with the institutional critique movement. Their artistic individuality is restored by a comparison of their respective approach and oeuvre. Finally, Bodys Isek Kingelez's imaginary cities have been perceived as visionary and raw. By taking into account Kinshasa post colonial architecture, a more realistic view of Kingelez's oeuvre is revealed. 96 pp. Englisch.
