No ownership

No Ownership No personal stake in anything. This is the opposite of accountability. [Pg.242]

Bonds can be bought and sold, like shares, on a special bond trading market, and their trading value will vary around the face value (usually without the spectacular changes that can occur with shares). The key characteristics of a bond are the guaranteed repayment of capital and annual interest payment (so long as the company survives to the maturity of the bonds), but, unlike a share, no ownership rights are conveyed with a bond. [Pg.278]

Open source software (also known as freeware or shareware) is increasingly being incorporated into COTS products. Open source software is developed by informal communities who claim no ownership and refute any accountability for the code. Features and bug fixes emerge out of uncoordinated custom developments of freely available, uncontrolled copies of the source code. There is usually no formal quality umbrella for software development and support hence it is very difficult to demonstrate that such software is fit for purpose. Reverse engineering development documentation from the code and conducting comprehensive testing are likely to be extremely... [Pg.97]

A bond is therefore a financial contract from the person or body that has issued the bond, that is, the borrowed funds. Unlike shares or equity capital, bonds carry no ownership privileges. The bond remains an interest-bearing obligation of the issuer until it is repaid, which is usually on its maturity date. [Pg.4]

Similar questions arise when considering the carbon impacts of cotton cultivation. The bulk of the carbon footprint for growing cotton is associated with the agricultural chemicals, and in particular, the fertilizers used by the farmer. Does the retailer influence the farmer in the choice of fertilizers, and how much fertilizer is used Bear in mind that at the time of fertilizer application, the cotton fiber is still growing, and the retailer has no ownership or contractual arrangement with the farmer. In reality, the quantity of fertilizer, and therefore, the carbon impacts used by a farmer are determined by various factors such as climatic conditions, soil health, and pest management, all of which vary from year to year and are totally unrelated to the retailer. [Pg.209]

It is not only objects like the temple and the cult vessels that are holy it is also portions of time that he has designated holy. The Sabbath, along with festival times, is a time that is declared holy. The Israelite therefore cannot work at his occupation in order to gain benefit for himself on such days, for he has no ownership of those times. If he does not desist from work (na 2>, we recall, does not mean rest but desist ), he encroaches on holy time, he is a thief of time that has been laid claim to by the deity. As v. lo says explicitly, the seventh day is a sabbath belonging to Yhwh your God. ... [Pg.300]

A workforce that is not involved in safety and health has no ownership and thus feels no investment, responsibility, or accountability for it. [Pg.348]

Airport operator has no ownership, control, or influence over implementation... [Pg.21]

Airport operator has no ownership or control but can influence the reduction... [Pg.21]

Airport Control The level of financial and logistical control of the airport operator to implement the reduction action. Airport operator has no ownership, control, or influence over implementation of the strategy. [Pg.24]

The law contains a compHcated provision, which case law has further elaborated, concerning ownership of renewal rights. Generally, renewal rights do not vest until the last year of the initial term. At that time they vest in the author. If the author is dead, the rights vest in the author s surviving spouse and children as a class in the author s executor, ie, the beneficiaries under the author s will, if there is no surviving spouse or children or in the author s next of kin under appHcable state law if the author did not leave a will. [Pg.265]

No technicians participation in procedures development, hence, no sense of ownership. [Pg.168]

Collective ownership—no programmer owns code, but a team will collaborate, possibly using pair programming, vetting each others work. [Pg.236]

Further complicating the matter of software as property and its place in pharmaceutical research is consideration of the very place of property in health care. The value of health, most philosophers agree, is intrinsic. It exists for itself and for no other reason. As such, health, like life and liberty, is an important and powerful end or goal. Ownership of property is a lesser end or goal. [Pg.722]

The public loved leaded fuel for its pep, not its efficiency. Interest in fuel conservation faded when new oil deposits were discovered. Reassured about lead s dangers, Americans reveled in unprecedented personal mobility and used tetraethyl lead to expand their reliance on automobiles. Surprisingly, Midgley did not think his discovery would increase passenger car ownership. Nevertheless, tetraethyl lead and the engine improvements it permitted helped form America s car-dependent society. Fuel-efficient cars and public transportation were no longer top priorities. [Pg.95]

There is no substitute for the chemist s intuition. The bench chemist should personally perform the primary analysis of the theoretical data and possibly the data generation itself, as long as the chemist understands that this method is not a miracle solution (and will not replace him or her). Ownership of the problem will often mean that the bench scientist is eating, sleeping and drinking the problem. This is the person who has the most insight into the problem and this is the person you want to look at the molecular graphics and the probe surfaces. [Pg.37]

The argument continued off and on for several days, generating so much heat that the Presiding Judge often opened his arms in futile appeal. The defense didn t try to deny that Farben owned Dynamit A.G. They did say that the ownership was only "on paper" and that Dynamit A.G. was run independently, without the Farben directors knowing the vast extent of production. Even this, however, was not their strongest argument. A tax record, they insisted, had no place in this case. [Pg.319]

Researchers estimate that known reserves of industrially important transition metals, such as manganese and iron, will be depleted in less than a human lifetime. Scattered about the ocean floor are billions of tonnes of small chunks of rock ranging in diameter from several millimetres to several metres. These nodules, as they are called, consist mainly of manganese and iron oxides, but contain smaller amounts of other transition-metal compounds as well. The ocean floor is designated as international property. Therefore, no single country may claim ownership of this vast potential resource. Write an editorial that outlines your recommendations for how this resource may be shared. [Pg.217]
