The current theory regarding the evolution of the earth’s ocean is that water is present during the formation of the earth. Most of the discovered materials which was more than 4 billion years old also contained evidences of the present of water (Genda, 2016).

Additional water emerged in the surface of the earth coming from meteorites and comets during the formation of the earth. The continuous addition of water from volcanoes and meteorites or comets led to the formation ...

California’s “third city” San Diego is oftentimes forgotten between San Francisco’s foggy weather, Golden Gate Bridge and tech industry connections; and Los Angeles’ sports teams, movie stars, and of course, Hollywood. To be sure, what San Diego is popularly known for, namely its beaches, its great weather, and its zoo, are hardly the attractions that provoke excitement and “must go” desire. Rather, the city’s attractions they seem to focus on rest and relaxation. Indeed, that is probably why San Diego is one of the top cities in the nation for conferences and conventions.

Seattle in Washington, USA, may have come home to several persons across America and the world, in fact, through the little glimpses and aerial shots that we get during Sondra Rhimes’ Greys Anatomy, or made a household name because of Sleepless in Seattle, but for me Seattle is truly home. For me, Seattle is more than the upwardly mobile young people who sip coffee and appear to be talking about changing the future; it is more than its reputation of being a place of rain; it is more than the memory of Gary Payton, Sean Kemp and George Carl ...

Abstract

Lack of effective communication is one of the primary causes of failure in marriage. Communication is thus a key factor in a marriage’s success.

Although arguments and disagreements can be damaging to relationships, they can also be helpful to relationships by alerting couples to sources of unhappiness. The role of successful communication in conflict management and resolution can lead couples to correct negative behaviors and make positive changes that strengthen interpersonal bonds. Communication in a successful marriage is typically direct, or overt, rather than indirect, ...

When life gets tough, find that special happy place where you can relieve the stress and depressing feelings. Zadie Smith calls it “Find your Beach.” The beach does not necessarily have to be real. It can be a particular area or even just inside your mind (Smith, par. 4). Owing to the challenges and strenuous activities that affect urban folk in towns such as New York, there is the need to develop a calm and isolated dream or place that one can go to let go or forget his or her worries for a brief moment. “Find your Beach” ...

In her article Zadie Smith shares with us her perception of the life in a big city in the USA and thus shares her worldview, in general. She pays special attention to the concept of happiness in a large city, which consists in finding your place in the speedy busy world, finding “your beach”.

Communication and Problem Solving Practices in Public Safety Agencies

Abstract Communication and problem solving are necessary for public safety agencies to be effective. Employees cannot adequately respond to disasters if they do not have the correct information or the information at all.

This has resulted in a severe lack of coordination to disasters and emergencies that require the cooperation of different public safety agencies. The September 11, 2001 attacks on the World Trade Center and Hurricane Katrina are prime examples of the lack of coordinated communication and problem solving amongst different agencies. New technologies such as geographical ...

Ethics is a loosely defined area that seeks to achieve the best solution for the benefit of greater society.

The literature on ethical decision making training within public safety agencies stipulates certain guidelines.

Abstract

Public safety agencies have a tendency to ignore leadership succession planning and the formal development of future leaders. A combination of budget cuts, a lack of internal interest, increased public scrutiny, and politics means that public agencies often do not prepare for leadership changes. The average leadership tenure in the public sector has a reputation for being more extensive than the private sector, which is perhaps one of the reasons why public agencies do not place as much importance on succession planning. The average tenure of leaders in fire and rescue agencies is shortening due to increased job demands ...
