Tilikum's Early Life and Trauma

Blackfish analyzes how Tilikum’s life led up to his violent encounters. Tilikum was captured as a calf off the coast of Iceland, being separated from his family and taken to Sea Land of the Pacific in British Columbia. At Sea Land, Tilikum and the other orcas were placed in a 30 by 20 foot module at night, with barely enough room to float, and with the lights turned off, leaving him in total darkness and no room to swim. Animal specialists interviewed in the film claim that this led to a type of psychosis.

Tilikum's Involvement in Human Deaths

After Sea Land of the Pacific went out of business in 1992, Tilikum was transferred to Sea World, Orlando. Other than Dawn Brancheau’s death, Tilikum played a part in... Continue reading "Tilikum and Blackfish: Trauma of Orcas in Captivity" »

Management Buyouts Explained

Q: Management Buyouts are a form of buyouts. Explain this term.

Management buyouts (MBOs) are acquisitions where the company's existing management team purchases the company. While legally similar to other acquisitions, MBOs differ because the buyers are also the company's managers. This often means a limited due diligence process, as the buyers already possess in-depth knowledge of the company. Sellers are also likely to provide minimal warranties, assuming the management team is more familiar with the company's state than they are.

The Natural and Human Causes and Consequences of River Flood: Flooding in Bangladesh (LEDC) 1998

Bangladesh has been formed by deposition from three main rivers: the Brahmaputra, the Ganges, and the Meghan. The sediment from these and over 50 other rivers forms one of the largest deltas in the world, with up to 80% of the country located on the delta. As a result, much of the country is just a few meters above sea level and is under threat from flooding and rising sea levels. Bangladesh has a very dense population growth (nearly 2.7% per annum). Almost all of Bangladesh's rivers have their source outside of the country. For example, the drainage basin of the Ganges and Brahmaputra covers 1.75 million km2 and includes the Himalayas, the Tibetan...

The League's Aims

The League of Nations was set up because President Wilson wanted this more than anything else.

He wanted the League to be a kind of ‘world parliament’, where nations would sort out their arguments.   He hoped this would stop wars.   But Wilson wanted to do more than just stop war; he wanted to make the world a better place.   He wanted the League to do things to improve people’s lives and jobs.   He wanted to improve public health, and to end slavery.

Wilson also hoped that the League would persuade the nations to agree to disarmament – to put down their weapons.   That would make war impossible.

Finally, Wilson thought that the League of Nations could enforce the Treaty of Versailles, and persuade... Continue reading "The main stages of cold war." »
