Beekeeping is an appropriate farming activity that is suited to extensive systems in tropical Africa. Ethiopia is known for its large variation of agro-climatic conditions and biodiversity which includes good survival of diversified honeybee flora and large number of honeybee colonies (Adgaba, 2007). Because of this, Ethiopia is a leading country in Africa and ninth in the world in honey production. Considering beeswax production, it is the first in Africa and third in the world (FAO, 2005).…

From an early age I have been intrigued by the human mind and how it works. This interest has been enhanced through my study of psychology. Although I have only studied this subject for a relatively short period of time, I have enjoyed the variety the A-level course provides and I feel I have had a sample of different fields of this subject. I have particularly enjoyed studying comparative psychology because I am interested in how the human mind can be explained in evolutionary terms and how we…

Time and time again, society is influenced the many works of transcendentalist philosophers. Transcendentalism is the philosophical and literary movement that highlights themes of nature and spirituality while going against society and materialism. Christopher McCandless was in intelligent young man who believed in prospering through nature and the breach from the norms of society. He spent two years traipsing around the country before he ultimately starved to death in Alaska. McCandless…

Deceitful Tears!! "A dream without Ending …." "Only for those who want to strive, don't have a seat until you evolve your life" That influential sentence had stuck me many times before I conceived the reality. It had shocked me before I realized the bitter convention that impinged upon me several times, every single second passed throughout my shameful life. Sorry, I mean my shameful death!! It was the first time for me to be subject to that kind of such a feeling.…

on the trail to donate to their cause might just be a far less innocent act than perceived. In modern society, many charitable organizations have adopted overly-capitalistic practices with regard to their income. As the former executive director of Oxfam, Nicholas Stockton describes the hiring practices of non-profits to model big business more and more as the NGO (nongovernmental organization) field grows larger. In the Red Cross, one of the globe’s most recognizable organizations, “Marsha J.…

Another characteristic that shows that Chris McCandless is a romantic thinker is how he uses rebellion in his life. His spiritual and emotional desire, for lack of a better life, has led him to basically quit society. He donates his college fund to Oxfam, abandons his car, burns his money and ID cards, and turns into a completely independent man. Abruptly, McCandless leaves everything and everyone behind showing rebellion in his…

especially for an NFP organization such as FYD. It should not necessarily be aimed at fund raising, but take a more strategic approach such as to create superior social influence and organizational consistency. Today, this is practiced NFPO’s such as Oxfam International and GBCHealth. Branding in the context of NFP, is all about perception; which is initiated by every communication, every action and every interaction of the organization. Effective branding is what will distinguish FYD from other…

kind in Australia. We need to rally as many men/boys as we possibly can to help us fight for change. And, we don’t just want to talk about this issue. We want to try and make sure that it’s perceptible. I was nominated as a Goodwill Ambassador for Oxfam Australia around six months ago. And, the more I addressed feminism, the more I discovered that battling for women’s rights is often made synonymous with man-hating. I know one thing for certain, and it is that this view of feminism must stop. …

buy favors like ambassadorships and other prime posts (Drutman, 2012). 2. The political parties use the donations brought and rose by individuals to help the candidates openly or even use the soft money to attack their opponents (SparkNotes,). 3. Oxfam fights in opposition to poverty and unfairness but it has witnessed how rich individuals do capture political institutions at the cost of the rest of the people. This brings in power disparity. Embezzlement Embezzlement is the act of deceitfully…
