In this thesis, I argue that the treatment and seemingly progressive representation of gender and queer identity in Disney films serves merely as a form of baiting to modern audiences, a baiting that suggests Disney wants to be understood as having embraced the ideas of progressive feminism and "homosexually-inclusive" ideologies, only to undermine and disavow them with a "bait and switch" narrative maneuvering that undercuts the film's ostensible message. I analyze and interpret the ways in which "classic" Disney animated features represent gender and sexual identity binaries through a close reading of Bambi (1942), Mulan (1998), and Frozen (2013). I bring together Lacan's notion of the "mirror stage," the Symbolic order, and the idea that at the heart of identity lies a fundamental misrecognition, which leaves children especially vulnerable to the "hail" of ideology as it informs nearly the entirety of a child's headspace. Today, gender and sexual binaries are challenged at every level, and Disney seems to have embraced this progressive trend. Yet the lack of proper representation of LGBTQ characters and the negative subsequent treatment of those allowed to be seen in its films complicates this evolutionary progress that Disney claims it has achieved.

Let (Equation) and (Equation) be positive integers with (Equation) . In this paper, we show that every positive rational number can be written as the form (Equation) , where m,n∈N if and only if (Equation) or (Equation) . Moreover, if (Equation) , then the proper representation of such representation is unique.

THE PRESIDIUM OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE JUDICIARY COUNCIL AS THE ORGAN OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE JUDICIARY IN ITALYIn the legal system of the Italian Republic, there are two judicial self-government organs, which guarantee the independence of the courts and the independence of judges. The Supreme Judicial Council safeguards the independence of the common judiciary and the Presidium of the Administrative Judiciary Council — administrative judiciary. Despite the different composition of those organs, each of them ensures proper representation of judges of common and administrative courts. The election of judges by judges is the basic principle for the selection of the new council members. In addition, the competences of the Supreme Judicial Council and the Presidium of the Administrative Judiciary Council, are fundamental for guaranteeing the independence of the judiciary from the other public organs.

The paper examines a concept-records in becoming-and its possible implications for archival management.In 1994, Sue McKemmish uses the same term, record in becoming, in order to assert that the record is never finished. Within the framework of Australian records continuum, she supports the idea that at every step in a record existence, at any interaction with people, systems, business process, that record acquire new meanings, annotations, significances, therefore is never finished. Using the same terms in archival literature brings, first of all, confusions and an explanation of the mindset and implications of the two usage is intended. On the other hand, for each case, archival management needs an updated approach, in order to preserve and to deliver the proper representation of record to the users

Taking a domestic approach to understanding a global phenomenon, the purpose of this project is to illuminate how black women receive health information concerning skin whitening and how such information impacts black women's negotiation and engagement in skin whitening as a health, racial, cultural, and social practice situated in an African American and Caribbean immigrant community. Triangulating semi-structured in-depth interviews, autoethnography, field and participant observations, I completed a close look at skin whitening over four weeks of intensive observation and self-introspection. Findings reveal a complicated understanding of health and racial hazard engulfed in familial exchanges and non-knowledgeable representatives of products that vie for skin whitening products use without proper representation of health information and impacts.

This article is a ‘masculinist’ reading of Chukwuma Ibezute’s Victims of Betrayal, The Temporal Gods and Dance of Horror.The article contends that African literature has always focused on Africa’s socio-political situation until a group of “activists in feminist movement” started agitating for a proper representation of women in literature. Unlike in Europe and America where the ideology is not challenged, in Africa it was challenged by a group of scholars who called themselves ‘masculinists’. Using Ibezute’s three novels, the ‘masculinist’ ideology is demonstrated. While in Ibezute’s Victims of Betrayal it is revealed that men are play-things in the hands of their bad wives, in The Temporal Gods it is depicted that bad wives can go extra miles to impose their decisions on their husbands. In Dance of Horror, it is shown that the kind of woman that is married into a family determines the fate of that family. The article concludes that the implications of these situations as represented in the novels are that while the roles of some husbands in African homes are becoming more and more passive, the fate of some African homes and families are in the hands of wives.

This chapter deals with something which is widely spoken about, and very little know: Strategic Management. Following an evidence based approach, the author objective is to explain why Strategic Management is a scale invariant process that allows who uses it to identify possible and plausible solutions to complex issues. Some of the basics and analyticals of strategic management, such as strategic planning, SWOT analysis, Scenarios, are going to be described in detail. Detailed considerations will be presented on the issue of time and timing, a fundamental parameter that is too often neglected or taken as granted. The importance of strategic management to allow organisations to learn, change and evolve will be described. Some considerations on the importance of using the proper representation of the organisation's structure will be presented.

This chapter examines the question of the arbitrability of trust disputes in Singapore. In so doing, it discusses various issues which are said to present obstacles to the arbitration of trust disputes, and their applicability and relevance in the Singapore context. These are: whether an arbitration clause in a trust deed is considered to be an agreement to arbitrate; whether arbitrations are impermissible for ousting the courts’ jurisdiction; whether a clause in a trust which purports to be an arbitration agreement can bind the beneficiaries of a trust; whether arbitration can satisfy the requirement for proper representation of unascertained, unborn and legally incompetent beneficiaries; and whether trust disputes are inherently arbitrable. It shows that at least for disputes between beneficiaries and the trustee of a donative trust, there is some uncertainty whether a clause referring matters to arbitration is binding on the beneficiaries.

In 2008, Guernsey adopted the Trusts (Guernsey) Law 2007, which provides in section 63(1) for a binding alternative dispute resolution (ADR) process for claims ‘founded on breach of trust’. Whilst this legislation is in many ways positive, it has been rarely if ever used. The reason seems to be that the legislation is still not regarded as a workable way of achieving finality due to perceived difficulties in securing proper representation of minor and unborn beneficiaries and achieving a binding resolution of trust disputes. Indeed, there appears to be a fundamental incompatibility between trusts and commercial arbitration that has not yet been overcome. This chapter considers why and what more might be done to improve on what is still surely a very promising legislative start.
