Теоретични и практически проблеми при анализа на стратегиите за решаване на конфликти
Author(s): Krasimira Yonkova,Rumen Rashkov / Language(s): Bulgarian / Issue: 1/2016
The present report considers the theoretical aspects of conflict interaction by addressing the more important sociological, psychological and socio-psychological concepts and providing a set of practical parameters for intervention by the analysis of different strategies and methods to resolve andadjust the conflict. By analyzing the conflicting relationships in business and in the intimate (family) sphere of the social life of the man, the authors outline the conflict situation bordering between decisions and emotions. This different perspective made it possible to differentiate the different strategies of conduct for resolving business and personal conflicts. The last part deals with the basic methods of conflict regulation: psychological consultation, mediation and judgment.
ТЕОРИЯ ИНТЕРНЕТ-ФОЛЬКЛОРА: КОММУНИКАЦИЯ ФОЛЬКЛОРНОГО ТИПА И САМОИДЕНТИФИКАЦИЯ УЧАСТНИКОВ КРУПНЫХ ФОРУМОВ
Author(s): Marina Viktorovna Zagidullina / Language(s): Russian / Issue: 4/2015
This paper develops the basic ideas of the Internet folklore theory, which has been actively worked out in modern media research. Agreeing with the opinion of M.D. Alekseevskii on the main trends of this research school, an attempt is made to fill one of the gaps: the lack of research on folklore-type communication and its features in the Internet space. Five conditions for the appearance of folklore-type communication are singled out. The paper deals with each of these conditions and provides examples of folklore communications such as the popular Russian-speaking forum pikabu.ru. Particular attention is given to the self-identification of users/participants of communication, as well as the locality of this self-identification. It is emphasized that Internet should be considered as an analogue of the reality rather than a homogenous media space.
ТЕРОРИЗАМ – ПРЕТЊА ГЛОБАЛНОЈ БЕЗБЕДНОСТИ
Author(s): Hatidža Beriša,Rade Slavkovic,Ivan Rancic / Language(s): Bosnian,Serbian / Issue: 3/2018
A particular problem in defining terrorism is the fact that so far there is no single view on the essential elements of terrorism, as a term.The process of globalization and the establishment of a "new world order", the leader of the United States, do not perceive all countries in the same way, nor are these processes equal to all countries. In addition, these processes create favorable conditions for the creation and spread of terrorism at all levels of society, but also for its implementation by the state (state terrorism) as the most dangerous form of political violence. If we analyze global terrorist activities over the past thirty years, we can conclude that terrorist attacks are more lethal and the number of attacks is growing.
Техноконспирации: страшната страна на дигиталното сублимно
Author(s): Julia Rone / Language(s): Bulgarian / Issue: 48/2017
The current paper situates the scare around the "Russian hacking of the US elections" in a historical line of utopias and dystopias of the digital age. By tracing the genealogy of beliefs about the Internet and democratization, I show how the initial euphoric embracement of cyber-space as revolutionizing politics has been inverted in more recent narratives about the Internet and the death of democracy. In the shadow of figures such as hackers, bots, and trolls spreading disinformation, both Democrats and Republicans have created their own conspiracy theories around the leaking of DNC emails. By analysing a Reddit thread that attempts to be "neutral" amidst an increasingly polarized political debate, I show how difficult it is to avoid relapsing in conspiracy theories considering the absence of publicly available decisive evidence, the diminished trust in institutions, and the amenability of technological trails to falsification and multiple interpretations. Thus, apart from laying a claim on the right to know and tell political truths, conspiracy theories point also to the impossibility of attaining, in a rational and categorical way, a truth that is passionately sought. Ultimately, I argue that interpreting the outcome of the US elections as the result of a secret technological intervention is a form of techno-fetishism that overlooks much more complex political and economic factors.

Траурна ритуалност и нагласи към смърттта на българите
Author(s): Krasimira Yonkova,Doncho Donev / Language(s): Bulgarian / Issue: 1/2014
The death is not attractive to anyone, but is resident for each living creatures. Its conversion into taboo leads to a different transformations. We may find their expression in a symbolic funeral rituals. From this perspective, mourning and funeral rites of the Bulgarians proved particularly significant in shaping the attitudes toward death. If we linking these attitudes with specific stages of life, the dynamic in the attitude of Bulgarians towards the end of life will be clearly traceable.
Тревогата в психоанализата
Author(s): Milena Motsinova-Brachkova / Language(s): Bulgarian / Issue: 1/2013
Тhe article presents anxiety as fundamental to psychoanalytic understanding of the nature of man as a speaking being and his mental functioning. As a reason for anxiety initially Sigmund Freud indicates suppression of mental images in which the remainder of not symbolized libido raises concern. Second version of Freud presents anxiety as a product of the loss of an object; castration, associated with the Оedipal complex, implies the absence of the object. One part of the libido remains inaccessible to symbolization and that this part of the libido Jacques Lacan would call Real. Lacan regarded libido problems beyond phallic and Oedipal complex. By introducing the subject "little a" it shows that anxiety is objectless. The site "little a" functions as a lost object – oral object (the breast), the anal object, gaze, voice. The symptom is a therapeutic key to anxiety in psychoanalysis. Analytical work with the symptoms depends on the psychic structure of the subject – neurotic or psychotic structure. Analysis began because anxiety or some painful symptoms, associated with dysfunction and ends with a new final symptom that helps man to name the unnameable part of his being, and in fact this is a new way of living.

УЛОГА НАСТАВНИКА И ОБРАЗОВНО-ВАСПИТНИХ УСТАНОВА У ПРЕВЕНЦИЈИ ВРШЊАЧКОГ НАСИЉА
Author(s): Miloš Mitrovic / Language(s): Bosnian,Serbian / Issue: 3/2018
There is almost no person, who did not experience in their childhood some kind of violence in the interaction with their peers. Those people, with the every new case of peer violence, which comes into public, experience again negative experiences, which they experienced in their childhood. Therefore, a huge interest of scientific and wider public in the problem of peer violence and questions regarding its prevention is not a wonder.The role of a teacher in the prevention of such violence is essential; however, one gets impression that he is a figure, who is not extremely interested in that, and therefore, it is no wonder that a lot of children do not seek teacher's help, nor do they expect that he will offer help. This statement has been analyzed in the work through the understanding of a wider social context of peer violence, which is shown mainly in the disparity between the system of values, which is promoted at school by teachers, and the system of values, which generally prevails in the society. Special attention has been paid to a certain number of mechanisms – preventive and intervening, which are at disposal for teachers and educational institutions in the context of stopping peer violence. According to the study, conceptualized in such a way, we came to the conclusion that educational institutions and, first of all, teachers can be successful in the prevention of peer violence if they build an adequate relationship with their students and show their willingness to help. However, even on that condition, the effect of measures, which they would undertake, would be of limited reach, if it does not come to the change of social ambience, in which the students grow up, and which has marginalized the function of educational institutions to a great extent in the previous decades.

Утицај стреса на агресивно понашање особа са аутизмом и интелектуалном ометеношћу и поступци реаговања
Author(s): Daniela Tomaš / Language(s): Serbian / Issue: 1/2016
Behavior problems of people with autism as well as intellectual disability are often shown as the consequence of the frustrations caused by the outer factors and feelings of emotional emptiness which appear as the consequence of reduced social interactions and support or because of a subjective feeling of dissatisfaction with one's personal life. The number of researches have tried to show the effects of changing the environmeent to the behaviour of the intellectually disabled people, and some results show that it is important to realise that the problems in behaviour are connected to the surrounding conditions, life quality and quantity of the stress present. The housing conditions are of great importance for the quality of life and psychosocial condition of people with autism and intelectual disability. With the aim of giving a quality support to the adult people with autism and intelectual disability it is very important to understand their behaviour and its negative manifestations like aggression and other issues in behaviour better and to deal firstly with their cause, in order to prevent that behaviour, and not focus only on the behaviour as the consequence of the effect of the negative factors. In addition, it is very important that, in situations when such behavioral problems manifest themselves, we apply the appropriate procedures for their removal.
Участие на Аза, правилата и смисловият контекст в рефлексивната ситуация
Author(s): Boris Minchev / Language(s): English / Issue: 1/2016
The paper is a theoretical account of human capacity for reflexive conscious experience. The conceptual background of the topic is shaped by the empiricism – rationalism debate initiated by R. Descartes and J. Locke. The contemporary background inherited the positions in the old controversy. Next an original view on reflexivity is proposed. It is summarized in 11 theses. The main idea is the organization of the reflexive situation around a reflexive Self. The latter is composed of two parts – active spontaneous "I" and a passive content "me". Both are shifting fast as fast phases of a full Self. The Self is internally reflexive. The Self is responsively reflective to the rest of the situation. Thus reflexivity is doubled. This subjective amplification makes reflexive feelings "stereoscopic". Self-centered situations become intensely detailed due to the reflective attitude and it makes it viewed in a new way. In the report the prototypic reflexive situation is discussed.The latter is constituted by the meaning context, experienced by the Self of the individual in a specific socio-cultural setting. A vast variety of reflexive patterns may be comprehended by arrangement around a prototype. Personal reflexivity is prototypic. The other reflexive states share partially properties of personal reflexive experience. Complex volitions are constituted by personal reflection. For the alleviation of the coordination going on, the Self relies on rules, specific affordances, performing a number of functions – instrumental, defining, criterial, etc. Rules are designed to master a particular situation in which the Self, meaning and setting also converge. The very mastering of situations of cognitive or existential-value nature leads to the acquisition of reflexive skills, first supported by rules. Later the rules are implicitly felt or become habits. Rules are important didactic means in the educational reflexive practice. Therefore they should be known about their didactic applications.
Учебно-познавателната евристична дейност като фундамент за развиване на рефлексивните способности на учениците
Author(s): Nina Ivanova / Language(s): Bulgarian / Issue: 5/2016
The article studies various conditions of combining heuristic activity, taking place in the process of learning, with activation of reflection processes, as well as any possible consequences of such combination. Author's positive research experience in this area has been shared, related to the realization of reflexive-synergetic approach principles in mathematics education. Concise presentation is made of the results of a pedagogical experiment proving the thesis that the organisation and management of student educational-cognitive heuristic activity by using an educational technology which has been specifically created for this purpose, developed in compliance with the fundamental principles of the reflexive-synergetic approach, increases the level of student individual intellectual reflection abilities.

Pumas UNAM vs Club Tijuana: Preview, TV Schedule, and How to Watch Liga MX Online
Pumas tries to play for pride against a Xolos team that has been struggling away from Tijuana

Share All sharing options for: Pumas UNAM vs Club Tijuana: Preview, TV Schedule, and How to Watch Liga MX Online
Pumas fans depart Olimpico Universitario stadium, site of the Pumas vs Xolos game.
Rafael Hernandez
Pumas will try to give their fans some hope for the future when they face a Xolos team that is right in the middle of a fight for the Liguilla. After losing badly to Tigres, Pumas' season seems to be over, with only a miracle giving them a pas to the Liguilla. Still, at home they should fight for the chance however remote, especially against a team that despite being in the running for the Liguilla, most of their success has been based on home results. Tijuana have been great at home but their away results have recently been awful, including two bad defeats at Pachuca and America.
Pumas' season was basically finished last week. Not only did their consolation prize come tumbling down when they lost the Copa MX Semifinal against FC Juarez, but a couple of days later they lost badly to Tigres, which meant the all but kissed goodbye to the Liguilla and their Liga MX season. To make matters worse, after a conflict with a FC Juarez fan, coach Bruno Marioni will face a two-game suspension. Still, there is some positive for this game. Even with their bad record this season, Pumas was almost undefeated at home. Their only loss in Liga MX at home was against Leon, the red hot team who currently sits with a 10 game winning streak. They got past others, including a tie with Monterrey and of course their best result of the season, a 1-0 win against rival America.
On the other side of the coin lies Xolos of Tijuana. Based on great home performances, Xolos is right on track to qualify for the Liguilla. They will arrive against Pumas after a great result over America in Tijuana that has them right in it. That said, while they had some early success (including an away win at Leon right before they became the top team in Mexico) their recent away form has been disastrous. They are in the middle of a three-game away losing streak, with two of them being bad 4-0 losses. It started with a 4-0 loss at Pachuca and continued with another 1-0 loss against bottom level Queretaro. Their last away loss was in the Copa MX, but it was also a bad 4-0 loss against America. Although it paid off with a Liga MX win against the same rival, Xolos looked awful in that Copa MX semifinal in Mexico City and they were lucky to only lose by 4.
Beyond that however, Xolos is right now in the thick of things and they can bounce back against a Pumas team playing only for their fans and their pride. Yet they will be going into one of the toughest venues, something you really don't want to face if you're in the middle of an "away slump". A prediction is up in the air for most experts as both teams situations might be able to neutralize the advantages of their rivals. It should be a treat for most fans to watch who comes up top on Sunday afternoon.

John Peabody Harrington Papers
Harrington, John Peabody, 1884-1961
1907-1959 (some earlier)
683 Linear feet
Harrington was a Bureau of American Ethnology ethnologist involved in the study of over one hundred American tribes. His speciality was linguistics. Most of the material concerns California, southwestern, northwestern tribes and includes ethnological, archeological, historical notes; writings, correspondence, photographs, sound recordings, biological specimens, and other types of documents. Also of concern are general linguistics, sign language, writing systems, writing machines, and sound recordings machines. There is also some material on New World Spanish, Old World languages. In addition, there are many manuscripts of writings that Harrington sketched, partially completed, or even completed but never published. The latter group includes not only writings about anthropological subjects but also histories, ranging from a biography of Geronimo to material on the history of the typewriter. The collection incorporates material of Richard Lynch Garner, Matilda Coxe Stevenson, and others. In his field work, Harrington seems sometimes to have worked within fairly firm formats, this especially being true when he was "rehearing" material, that is in using an informant to verify and correct the work of other researchers. Often, however, the interviews with informants (and this seems to have been the case even with some "rehearings") seem to have been rather free form, for there is a considerable intertwining of subjects. Nevertheless, certain themes frequently appear in his work, including annotated vocabularies concerning flora and fauna and their use, topography, history and biography, kinship, cosmology (including tribal astronomy), religion and philosophy, names and observations concerning neighboring tribes, sex and age division, material culture, legends, and songs. The fullness of such materials seems to have been limited only by the time Harrington had to spend with a goup and the knowledge of his informants.

(432) Пифия () — небольшой астероид главного пояса светлого спектрального класса S. Он был открыт 18 декабря 1897 года французским астрономом Огюстом Шарлуа в обсерватории Ниццы и назван в честь Пифии, в древнегреческой мифологии знаменитой жрицы Аполлона в Дельфах.

В 1981 году, по результатам наблюдений, проведённых в Обсерватории Ла-Силья, шведские астрономы проанализировали изменения кривой блеска нескольких астероидов, в том числе и Пифии. На основании полученных результатов учёные определили период вращения и спектральные характеристики астероида.

'Pitch Perfect' Star Brittany Snow Files For Divorce From Tyler Stanaland
January 20, 2023 | Subhojeet Mukherjee
Brittany Snow made a name for herself in 'Pitch Perfect' and fans have continued to show her support no matter what. Unfortunately, it seems her personal life is not going well right now. This is because she filed for divorce from her husband Tyler Stanaland.
According to TMZ, Brittany Snow made her way to court Wednesday and filed to divorce Tyler Stanaland, who appears on "Selling the OC," after almost three years of marriage.
Brittany Snow cited irreconcilable differences as the reason for her wanting to call it quits. She further added that there is a prenup. This was not something fans were shocked about either.
This was not unexpected at all as the pair announced in September that they had separated. Right after that, Stanaland was seen getting cozy with his "Selling the OC" costar Alex Hall. He still maintained the fact that they are just friends.
But a few days later Tyler and Brittany were hanging out, and even spent the night together. Regardless, a divorce will be taking place.
Brittany and Tyler tied the knot March 14, 2020 and did not have any children together. We'll have to wait and see what the future holds for both of them, but it won't be together.

"Three years earlier…"
Note: This post is the twenty-seventh installment in my author's commentary for Eternal Empire, covering Chapter 26. You can read the previous installments here.
Of all the tidbits of writing advice I've picked up over the years, one I never tire of quoting comes courtesy of the legendary pulp novelist Jack Woodford. In his classic book Trial and Error—which manages to be both a useful writer's manual and a gem of self-promotion—Woodford says:
The trouble with most first short stories is that they have their beginnings buried in their middles. Take up the thousand word short story you have written and read down until you come to the first dialogue or objective action.
Now, start reading all over again, beginning the story as though that first bit of action or dialogue were the start of the story. Read along for two or three hundred words while the action and dialogue continue, until you come to the point where you have again resorted to expository writing—that is, to telling the reader something, rather than to portraying the material in narrative or dramatic form. At this point, insert all of that material which went before the first action or dialogue. Write an additional sentence or two of transition, in between the dialogue and action section and the expository section. Retype the story, with the middle at the beginning, the beginning at the middle, and the ending where it was in the first place. Now you need no longer wail, "But I don't know how to start a story!"
To my eye, this is what a writing tip should be: practical, immediately applicable, and just a little mechanical. Putting it into practice is a matter of copying and pasting. If it works, great; if not, it's easy to reverse it. But what strikes me the most about it now is that although Woodford is talking about how to start a story, when you generalize it, it's really a rule about flashbacks. I've always seen flashbacks as a dangerous tool: they interrupt what ought to be a continuous flow of action, whether internal or external, and offer the temptation to spend time on backstory, rather than revealing character through action. But they also have their uses. As Woodford notes, you usually want to get the story moving in the very first sentence, and a flashback can be used, paradoxically, to enable narrative momentum by placing the exposition at a point where the plot can sustain it. When you follow Woodford's approach, you find that the flashback naturally appears during an organic pause, where the plot has to regroup to take a breather anyway. All stories, if they aren't going to exhaust the reader, need a few stretches of relative flatness to balance out the high points, and it's valuable real estate. If you find that you really need a flashback—if only because the backstory would be more vivid or interesting if clustered in a single unit, rather than dispersed—then it probably belongs at a moment when the story can afford to slow down.
And like most useful writing tools, a flashback can be perform a double duty, inserting a moment of delay where it increases the suspense. Elsewhere, I've used the movie Snowpiercer as an example: just before the protagonist is about to reach the end of his violent quest, he pauses, lights a cigarette, and tells us a little about himself for the first time. Anywhere else, and the speech would have seemed like a misstep; here, it both postpones the climax at a point of maximum tension and reminds us of the stakes involved at just the right moment. Snowpiercer may be the most relentlessly linear action movie I've ever seen—it tracks the hero's progress from one train compartment to another, so that his movement through physical space exactly parallels the structure of the story—and it cleverly places what amounts to a flashback at the only spot where it wouldn't interrupt the plot's forward motion. But even more loosely constructed stories can benefit from its example. Not every narrative needs to move singlemindledly from A to B, and in certain exceptional works, like The English Patient or Citizen Kane, the movement between past and present and back again can almost become a character in itself. But chronological order is the baseline from which we depart only with good reason. And those departures work best when they occur in places where the rhythm allows for a regathering.
The flashback that opens Part II of Eternal Empire is an interesting case, because it was written long after the rest of the novel was complete. My editor had suggested clarifying the relationship between Maddy and Ilya, which otherwise depends mostly on the reader's knowledge of The Icon Thief, and I realized that she had a good point: much of the action of the novel's second half hinges on the evolving understanding between these two characters. It also gave me a chance to revisit a piece of the story that the previous books had left unexplored. And because the novel was already so tightly structured, it made sense to stick it here. Last week, I noted that I usually start any writing project with three or four big twists in mind, and I'll outline the book so that each of these occur at the end of a section. As a result, the beginning of the next section benefits from the residual momentum that the previous climax has generated. Inserting the flashback here put it at a point where I could trust that the reader, having come this far, would at least make it through the next few pages, and it provided a useful way of delaying the resolution of the previous scene, which ended with the hood coming down over Maddy's head. It wasn't part of my original conception, but once it was there, it seemed to strengthen, rather than weaken, the surrounding material. And when we catch up with Maddy again, waiting in the back of the car for whatever is coming next, we know exactly what brought her there…

James Corden (born 17 June 1978) is a BAFTA-winning English actor, comedian, writer and producer. He co-created and stars in the BBC One/BBC Three comedy Gavin & Stacey and BBC Three comedy Horne & Corden.
Corden grew up in Hazlemere, a suburb of High Wycombe in Buckinghamshire. He studied drama as a young boy at Jackie Palmer Stage School and then attended Holmer Green Senior School in Holmer Green near High Wycombe and the Misbourne School, in Great Missenden. Corden was not a serious student and did not attend university.
On Friday Night with Jonathan Ross (2 November 2007), he confirmed that he was dating the actress Sheridan Smith. However, on 11 March 2008, after flirting with Lily Allen on her chatshow, she asked if he was single. He replied, 'It's complicated'. He was later also seen leaving a comedy gig with Allen. However, he confirmed his relationship with Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps star Smith was back on, in July 2008, after telling friends "The time away has been good for us and I know we have something special. We're taking it slowly and I am more than happy. She is my best mate, too." As of February 2009 Corden and Sheridan Smith's relationship is now back on.
Corden is a fan of West Ham United, which causes conflict with his Gavin & Stacey co-star Mathew Horne, who is a Tottenham Hotspur fan. Following an appearance on Soccer AM in January 2007, Corden revealed that he has attended many West Ham United games with fellow supporter Russell Brand.
"I never worked at all, I don't know why. I think it was the best thing that could have happened to me because it taught me about rejection from a really early age. At the time it was awful, all my friends were getting parts in paint adverts and stuff."
His first role was in the musical Martin Guerre. He then starred in the British television series Fat Friends as Jamie Rymer, and played Gareth Jones in the series Boyz Unlimited. His TV work includes a role playing a bookish student in Teachers (Series 1, 2000) and he also made a guest appearance in Little Britain. Corden's film credits include Mike Leigh's All or Nothing (2002).
Corden played a small part in Channel 4/T4's Hollyoaks. He played a caretaker of the local college briefly around 2001-2. In an August 2008 interview with Esquire Magazine he commented on his disdain of the programme and members of the cast. Corden said he would rather die than go back to appear on Hollyoaks, saying: "I met a couple of really good friends there, but it's (only) 20% nice people."
Corden played the role of Timms in the original London stage production of Alan Bennett's play The History Boys, as well as in the Broadway, Sydney, Wellington and Hong Kong productions and radio and film versions of the play. Corden stars in the BBC Three comedy Gavin & Stacey that he co-wrote with his Fat Friends co-star Ruth Jones. As well as a second series for the BBC, Corden will act as executive producer for an NBC pilot of an American version of the show.
Corden guest hosted Big Brother's Big Mouth with his Gavin & Stacey co-star Mathew Horne in August 2007. Corden and Horne were the permanent hosts for the Big Brother's Big Mouth series running alongside E4's Big Brother: Celebrity Hijack in January 2008. He appears in the forthcoming film of Toby Young's autobiography How To Lose Friends and Alienate People and series two of Gavin & Stacey. He cohosted the Whats on Stage Awards ceremony in 2008.
In February 2008 he shot a BBC pilot, Hey, Hey, We're The Monks. He will collaborate with Horne on a new sketch show named Horne and Corden, a "traditional" comedy show in the style of Morecambe and Wise as well as the film Lesbian Vampire Killers.
In February 2009, he co-presented the Brit Awards with Mathew Horne and Kylie Minogue.
On Friday 13 March 2009, he appeared in a sketch for Comic Relief giving the England Football Team a motivational talk. He later went on to present a section with Mathew Horne showing their best bits of comedy from the last two years along with highlights from the night.
On 17 March 2009, James appeared on The Paul O'Grady Show.
Corden was nominated for the 2000 RTS Award for Network Newcomer — On Screen for his work on Fat Friends.

When people think of franchises, chances are that restaurants may be the first thing to come to mind. The success of brands like Subway has made the restaurant franchise an attractive investment for those seeking success in the food industry.
But are restaurant franchises really a good way to make money, or are they nothing more than a good way to lose your shirt? While there are risks to any franchise or business opportunity, there are also some compelling reasons to consider a restaurant franchise opportunity.
Franchise restaurant chains have survived the start-up and initial growth phases of business, and have become popular enough to support multiple locations and draw a stable customer base. About 80% of start-up businesses fail because of the unpredictable nature of public tastes and flash-in-the-pan trends. Franchises have proven themselves over a period of time, which reduces the risk of business failure and increases the probability of success.
One major reason why restaurants fail is that they don't define their concept clearly enough. Some try to be all things to all people, which is a recipe for failure. Others may decide on a concept that is unsustainable or depends on a high level of customer interest and repeat business that just doesn't exist. The clear concept provided by a franchise is a key to success that can't be underestimated.
Instead of having to figure out how to do everything from create a menu to come up with effective hiring practices, new franchisees have the benefit of the franchisor's greater level of experience for many of these needed policies and practices. Training, software systems, phone and email support - even advertising campaigns are all typically provided by the franchise organization and come from a proven track record.
Franchises can tap into the group purchasing network of the organization, which allows them to purchase food at a greatly reduced cost. In addition, the franchise menu is typically fixed, so it is easier to estimate the needs and costs associated with running the restaurant. Food costs are a major reason why restaurants fail, and franchises make it easy to avoid this problem.
Most banks and lending institutions look at franchises as safer investments than start-up businesses because of the proven track record and level of support. It is easier to get banks to lend capital to cover the often considerable licensing fees and equipment costs when you have a solid business plan that has already shown results, as a franchise has.

Oceanside Glasstile welcomes Uroboros Glass
KEYWORDS glass tile
CARLSBAD, CA -- In September of 2016, Oceanside Glasstile had the amazing opportunity to acquire art glass manufacturing equipment, formulas and intellectual property from world-renowned company, Spectrum® Glass. Shortly after the acquisition, Uroboros Glass, another major player in the art glass industry, announced they too would be looking for a company to take on their production processes.
After great deliberation, Eric Lovell, founder and president of Uroboros Glass, came to the conclusion "Although there were other credible candidates who sought to acquire Uroboros and its technology in recent months, it was the Oceanside Glasstile people and culture that put them in the winning seat for me."
This year is going to be a year Oceanside Glasstile never forgets. "The opportunity to continue the legacies of Spectrum and Uroboros on the eve of Oceanside Glasstile's 25th year is an absolute honor," said Vincent Moiso, vice president of business development. "We are so excited to return to the art glass roots we were founded on."
In late November 2016, Oceanside Glasstile received the first of many equipment transfers from Spectrum and now the factory waits excitedly to welcome the Uroboros equipment. Over the next few months, Uroboros plans to wind down production so they can start to facilitate the move to Oceanside Glasstile.
Along with the equipment comes some of Uroboros' best players who, like Spectrum, will be Oceanside Glasstile's guiding light during the transition. They will help with set-up and training of the company's engineers, furnace handlers and chemist. From this collaboration, the art glass industry can anticipate a ramp up of Uroboros product that includes, but is not limited to, System 96® sheet and frit, FX90 fusible products and their iconic stained glass sheets. Oceanside Glasstile hopes to get sheet glass back on track in late May with frit, stringer, noodle, rods, etc., following in June.
Previously, Spectrum Glass and Uroboros worked closely together to create some of the best quality fusible glass the art glass industry had to offer known as System 96. Oceanside Glasstile looks forward to carrying on this amazing offering. Everyone at OGT continues to feel incredibly honored to be entrusted with such an adored product. There is sincere admiration for Uroboros and all they have provided to the art glass industry over the last 44 years, and Oceanside Glasstile is excited to continue that legacy.
Oceanside Glasstile is committed to the same level of quality and service the art glass industry is.
