[Steven Silberberg] argues that NEBCO's stations remain responsive to their local markets even though the company's Vermont programming includes little local content other than sports. "We've taken radio stations that don't have financial viability or listeners and spent money to save them," Silberberg says. He says WFAD was in bankruptcy when purchased from Kathryn Messner - wife of Vermont TV weatherman Tom Messner - reportedly for $180,000. And WFAD, along with a few other NEBCO stations in Vermont, does regularly air local school sports as well as occasional live coverage of community events, Silberberg points out.

Extant scales for risk propensity are confined to specific decision contexts, lending them less applicable to multifaceted business decisions where decision-making agents' general risk propensity across different aspects of the decisions can be an important determinant. To fill this gap, this study developed a scale that measures general risk propensity of decision-making agents and can be applicable to multifaceted business decisions. The scale development approach used in this study was based on Hinkin's (1998) guideline for survey scale development. A five-item general risk propensity scale was developed, then assessed on its reliability and unidimensionality, and further validated through its correlation with other context-specific risk propensity scales and with conceptually relate...

This information has been compiled from a number of rescue organizations and humane societies that routinely work with and rescue dogs from large scale breeding facilities. It is our hope that this information will help you in making an informed adoption decision.
What is a puppy mill? By the formal definition, a puppy mill is a large-scale breeding operation that produces large numbers of puppies for profit, with sales over the Internet, to local customers and to pet stores. Dogs are typically confined to small cages or kennels, often grouped in breeding pairs or large groups with little human contact or meaningful socialization. Although the tendency is to want to save them all, please do not act impulsively. Consider everything before you choose to adopt.

CIMA's recent forum entitled `Ethics and Business - New Corporate Challenges and Opportunities' addressed the need for ethics to be embedded in business models, organisational strategy and decision- making processes.
IN AN age where corporations are growing exponentially within and beyond their shores, good business ethics and sustainability have become the cornerstone to ensure survival and growth. These are practices not only identified with corporate personnel alone, but by definition, extended to management accountants who play a key role in helping organisations thrive via proper management decision- making.

The literature that has guided our thinking about an individual's organizational behavior for more than fifty years can still help us understand individual decision-making. There is a tendency to disregard studies done more than five years ago. The central concepts of 'old' research remain valuable despite that bias. It is from that 'old' literature that we still believe that the socialization process functions primarily as an induction to the organizational value structures and/or the internalization of norms, mores and behaviors of individuals. From such research came a better understanding of how individuals acquire and process information and, concomitantly, the decision making process. This paper both departs from and builds on these traditional approaches to socialization research...
