Investigating Business - Ownership Essay -- Business Management Studie
Investigating Business - Ownership Investigating Business Unit One Task One: Ownership Introduction I have chosen to base my assignment on the following businesses: Sole-Trader for which I have chosen Errol Andersonââ¬â¢s business: Errol Anderson Motors PLC for which I have chosen Sainsburyââ¬â¢s I have chosen these businesses because a Sole-Trader and a PLC make a good comparison and therefore I have chosen a sole-Trader and a PLC. I have chosen Sainsburyââ¬â¢s as my PLC because firstly my teacher recommended this PLC to me. Another reason for choosing this PLC is that it is one of the UKââ¬â¢s successful businesses and also is a well known business in the UK. I am also a regular customer of Sainsburyââ¬â¢s and there for it is easier for me to talk about the services they provide their customers with. The website of this PLC also is very useful because it provides us with a Student Section in which the website allows us to look at the companyââ¬â¢s history, company information and also it provides us with a Media Centre detail. Sainsburyââ¬â¢s has many articles in local newspapers and reports on television. It is a very popular business in the form of a PLC and therefore I have Chosen this business. I have chosen Errol Anderson, as my Sole-Trader because my teacher recommended me to do this Sole-Trader if I didnââ¬â¢t know a LTD, a Sole-Trader or someone in Partnership business. Errol Anderson is Sole-Trader who set up his own garage and called it Errol Anderson Motors. Another reason for me choosing Errol is that I didnââ¬â¢t have any friends or family member who were able supply me with information on either a Sole-Trader, a Partnership business or a LTD business so therefore I have chosen Errol Anderson and his business Errol Anderson Motors to base my assignment on. Sole-Trader A Sole-Trader is someone like Errol Anderson who has set up his own business. Errolââ¬â¢s business is called and is known as Errol Anderson Motors. Sole-Trader is someone who does a one-person business according to my assignment that one businessman is Errol. This is the simplest form of ownership in which the owner in this case who is Errol is fully controller of his business. Errol makes all decisions because he is the owner and has to spend a small amount of Capital to set up business such as a Sole-Trader. The financial information is private and t... ...PLC and Sole-Trader is that shareholders selling their shares can damage a PLC. But the Sole-Trader can also be damaged if it is on unlimited liability that can force them to sell their personal belongings. Decision-making The differences between the decision making in a PLC and a Sole-Trader is that a Sole-Trader like Errol does one-person business so therefore the Sole-Trader (Errol) makes his decisions himself and is in control of the business. So therefore a Sole-Trader like Errol decides for himself. The decision making of a PLC is made by the Boards of Directors. The Board of Director are shareholders who are elected by other shareholders to be the Board of Directors and have most of the power in the PLC in which the shareholders form partnership and groups to become Board of Directors. Overall the differences between decisions making of a Sole-Trader and a PLC is that a Sole-Trader is the owner of the business so they make decisions. But the owners of a PLC are the shareholders and if a shareholder or shareholders who own more than 50% of the company then they are made the Board of Directors and they are the ones who make the decision for a PLC.

The Vampire Diaries: The Awakening Chapter Sixteen
Elena hurried toward Robert E. Lee, feeling as if she'd been away from it for years. Last night seemed like something from her distant childhood, barely remembered. But she knew that today there would be its consequences to face. Last night she'd had to face Aunt Judith. Her aunt had been terribly upset when neighbors had told her about the murder, and even more upset that no one seemed to know where Elena was. By the time Elena had arrived home at nearly two in the morning, she had been frantic with worry. Elena hadn't been able to explain. She could only say that she'd been with Stefan, and that she knew he had been accused, and that she knew was innocent. All the rest, everything else that had happened, she had had to keep to herself. Even if Aunt Judith had believed it, she would never have understood. And this morning Elena had slept in, and now she was late. The streets were deserted except for her, as she hurried on toward the school. Overhead,, the sky was gray and a wind was rising. She desperately wanted to see Stefan. All night, while she'd been sleeping so heavily, she'd had nightmares about him. One dream had been especially real. In it she saw Stefan's pale face and his angry, accusing eyes. He held up a book to her and said, ââ¬Å"How could you, Elena? How could you?â⬠Then he dropped the book at her feet and walked away. She called after him, pleading, but he went on walking until he disappeared in darkness. When she looked down at the book, she saw it was bound in dark blue velvet. Her diary. A quiver of anger went through her as she thought again of how her diary had been stolen. But what did the dream mean? What was in her diary to make Stefan look like that? She didn't know. All she knew was that she needed to see him, to hear his voice, to feel his arms around her. Being away from him was like being separated from her own flesh. She ran up the steps of the high school into the nearly empty corridors. She headed toward the foreign-language wing, because she knew that Stefan's first class was Latin. If she could just see him for a moment, she would be all right. But he wasn't in class. Through the little window in the door, she saw his empty seat. Matt was there, and the expression on his face made her feel more frightened than ever. He kept glancing at Stefan's desk with a look of sick apprehension. Elena turned away from the door mechanically. Like an automaton, she climbed the stairs and walked to her trigonometry classroom. As she opened the door, she saw every face turn toward her, and she slipped hastily into the empty desk beside Meredith. Ms. Halpern stopped the lesson for a moment and looked at her, then continued. When the teacher had turned back to the blackboard, Elena looked at Meredith. Meredith reached over to take her hand. ââ¬Å"Are you all right?â⬠she whispered. ââ¬Å"I don't know,â⬠said Elena stupidly. She felt as if the very air around her was smothering her, as if there were a crushing weight all around her. Meredith's fingers felt dry and hot. ââ¬Å"Meredith, do you know what's happened to Stefan?â⬠ââ¬Å"You meanyou don't know?â⬠Meredith's dark eyes widened, and Elena felt the weight grow even more crushing. It was like being deep, deep under water without a pressure suit. ââ¬Å"They haven'tâ⬠¦ arrested him, have they?â⬠she said, forcing the words out. ââ¬Å"Elena, it's worse than that. He's disappeared. The police went to the boarding house early this morning and he wasn't there. They came to school, too, but he never showed up today. They said they'd found his car abandoned out by Old Creek Road. Elena, they think he's left, skipped town, because he's guilty.â⬠ââ¬Å"That's not true,â⬠said Elena through her teeth. She saw people turn around and look at her, but she was beyond caring. ââ¬Å"He's innocent!â⬠ââ¬Å"I know you think so, Elena, but why else would he leave?â⬠ââ¬Å"He wouldn't. He didn't.â⬠Something was burning inside Elena, a fire of anger that pushed back at the crushing fear. She was breathing raggedly. ââ¬Å"He would never have left of his own free will.â⬠ââ¬Å"You mean someone forced him? But who? Tyler wouldn't dare-â⬠ââ¬Å"Forced him, or worse,â⬠Elena interrupted. The entire class was staring at them now, and Ms. Halpern was opening her mouth. Elena stood up suddenly, looking at them without seeing. ââ¬Å"God help him if he's hurt Stefan,â⬠she said. ââ¬Å"Godhelp him.â⬠Then she whirled and made for the door. ââ¬Å"Elena, come back! Elena!â⬠She could hear shouts behind her, Meredith's and Ms. Halpern's. She walked on, faster and faster, seeing only what was straight ahead of her, her mind fixed on one thing. They thought she was going after Tyler Smallwood. Good. They could waste their time running in the wrong direction. She knew what she had to do. She left the school, plunging into the cold autumn air. She moved quickly, legs eating up the distance between the school and the Old Creek Road. From there she turned toward Wickery Bridge and the graveyard. An icy wind whipped her hair back and stung her face. Oak leaves were flying around her, swirling in the air. But the conflagration in her heart was searing hot and burned away the cold. She knew now what a towering rage meant. She strode past the purple beeches and the weeping willows into the center of the old graveyard and looked around her with feverish eyes. Above, the clouds were flowing along like a lead-gray river. The limbs of the oaks and beeches lashed together wildly. A gust threw handfuls of leaves into her face. It was as if the graveyard were trying to drive her out, as if it were showing her its power, gathering itself to do something awful to her. Elena ignored all of it. She spun around, her burning gaze searching between the headstones. Then she turned and shouted directly into the fury of the wind. Just one word, but the one she knew would bring him. ââ¬Å"Damon!â⬠[The End]

Elizibethan Religious Settlement Essay - 1952 Words
Elizabethan Religious Settlement The Elizabethan Religious Settlement was Elizabeth Iââ¬â¢s response to the religious divisions created over the reigns of Henry VIII, Edward VI and Mary I. This response, described as The Revolution of 1559,[1] was set out in two Acts of the Parliament of England. The Act of Supremacy of 1559 re-established the Church of Englandââ¬â¢s independence from Rome, with Parliament conferring on Elizabeth the title Supreme Governor of the Church of England, while the Act of Uniformity of 1559 set out the form the English church would now take, including the establishment of the Book of Common Prayer. When Mary died in 1558, Elizabeth succeeded to the throne. One of the most important concerns during Elizabethââ¬â¢s earlyâ⬠¦show more contentâ⬠¦The queen also appointed a new Privy Council, removing many Roman Catholic counsellors by doing so. Queen Elizabeth I of England reached a moderate religious settlement which became controversial after her death. Act of Uniformity The Act of Uniformity 1558, which required the population to attend Sunday service in an Anglican church, at which a new version of the Book of Common Prayer was to be used, passed by only three votes.[5] The Bill of Uniformity was more cautious than the initial Reformation Bill. It revoked the harsh laws proposed against Roman Catholics, it removed the abuse of the Pope from the litany and kept the wording that allowed for both a subjective and objective belief in the Real Presence in the Communion. After Parliament was dismissed, Elizabeth, along with Cecil, drafted what are known as the Royal Injunctions, 1559. These were additions to the settlement and largely stressed some continuity with the Catholic past: ministers were ordered to wear the surplice; wafers, as opposed to ordinary bakers bread, were to be used as the bread at Communion. There had been opposition to the settlement in the shires, which for the most part were largely Roman Catholic, so the changes are often said t o have been made in order to allow for acceptance of the
