There are many manners in which to be a hero; not all of them include donning a cape and fighting evildoers. Some heroes are more intellectual in nature, and all they need to change society’s wrongs is words, be it through pen and paper or by talking. The latter kind is usually not as well-known as the former, yet they have also influenced history in very important ways. One way of bringing society’s ills to light is through satire, of which there have been many master’s throughout the years. This genre ridicules the subject, using irony, ...

According to EPA (2016), environmental management involves the development of systems aimed at reducing environmental impacts of various activities. In the Brundtland commission report (WCED), sustainable development has been described as development aimed at meeting the current needs of the present generation. However, as the current generation focuses on meeting their own needs, their activities should not compromise the capability of future generations to also meet their own needs. Available evidence suggests that the future generation would have challenges meeting their own needs if the current generation fails to adopt sustainable practices. The sustainable development incorporates the triple line: ...

There has been a rise in people’s energy consumption after the industrial revolution. Mostly coal and natural gas are used for this purpose, but there is much controversy regarding the extraction of natural gas. Fracking is the recovery of natural gas from deep layers inside the earth. This method means that workers use sand, water and chemicals to fracture porous rock. This is the way for the enclosed natural gas to be released. Although it became popular during the past ten years, this technique has been efficient since the 1940s. People resorted to fracking because they exhausted the ...

Juvenile boot camps refer to the alternative sentencing option for a non-violent juvenile offender in which rather than being incarcerated in a juvenile detention center, offender are put through physical and psychological exercises similar to those developed from military basic training. To be sure, similar to military boot camp offender are required to obey their “drill sergeants”, complete a range of daily tasks and challenges, and do so with a minimum level of defiance. In fact, defiance to orders results in increased confrontation and pressure from one’s drill sergeant. The goals of a boot camp, like all criminal ...

Analysis of human failure contribution to process risk – The Case of Blowout in the Gulf of Mexico

Abstract

The Gulf of Mexico is considered to have accounted for roughly 90% of the complete offshore drilling in the United States of America in terms of the oil volume that is extracted. This number can be further equated to approximately one-third of the total production of oil in the United States of America. There are more than 50, 000 wells that have been drilled here since the year 1947 and of these 4,000 wells were dug deeper than 1, 000 ft. of water. As of date, more or less 80% of the total offshore drilling happens at a ...

Three potential ground for objections to interrogatories are: privilege, relevance, and overbroad. I think that the three stated objections are very commonly used in pending litigation for a variety of reasons. The privilege objection is common because of the sheer volume of communication with an attorney, furthermore, the evidentiary value of a privileged communication is high so something potentially privileged is likely to be asked for. Relevance is a common objection because when attempting to litigate a case, attorneys might take a ‘shot-gun’ approach to discovery in order to build their case and ask for more information than is strictly necessary to prove a ...

There is always change taking place within the society and in every organization or firm in business. Dexter Dunphy (2011) calls this “a perfect storm of change” (p.6), which is said to be a “global situation of unprecedented urgency” (p.4). This becomes a crisis to the society, not unless the firm acts on its impulse, to take effective action that would successfully solve the issue being confronted. This leads to actions of sustainability for sustainability. It is these sustainable models and framework that will answer to the call of the changing environment, to prevent crisis from taking place in societies within the ...

INTRODUCTION Various impact dynamic systems have been modelled postulating the expected drilling speed and displacement at given speeds. One of the most basic model [Fig 1(a)] that has been used involves a mass loaded with a force composed of static and harmonic components. Though the model is simple, the model also produces highly complex dynamics where the progression occurs at periodic system response. However, the stick slip phenomenon observed in this motion of the rock and the drill bit is not analyzed and therefore a more realistic model is required. The other model involves modeling the motion between the rock ...

Introduction

Impact energy has been used to drill rock formations for many decades now. The various tools that have been used for this purpose include percussive drills, percussive hammers, down hole hammers, and so on. Percussive drilling dynamics has been possible using drifting oscillator models. This has been used to characterize the optimum conditions of the applied forces (both static and dynamic). And in this case, the sliders provide the contact force required during interactions. This force acts on the drill-bit, and the model accounts for contact geometrics in the crashing phases of the interactions. A series of experiments ...

Introduction Despite the call for increased environmental awareness, most people remain unaffected by environmental concerns. Although it is an accepted fact that the environment is everyone’s concern, most individuals and organizations take their social responsibility to nature for granted. Most environmental programs are not taken seriously. For instance, most people knew that throwing litter could adversely affect the environment yet evidence show that this awareness is of no effect or is taken for granted. Cigarette butts, for example, still constitute the largest percentage of street litter, which according to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), is ...

In the 19th century, between 1820s and 1860s, numerous events happened leading to drastic change in social, economic and cultural activities in America thus causing the second revolution to occur. Furthermore, this era was marked with development in technology .For instance, the introduction of mechanized cotton spinning driven by steam or by water increased the production of the industries, since the cotton gin increased the speed of removing seed from cotton. Again, there was a new technology in iron making where coke was used instead of charcoal. With this technological improvement many people were eagerly ready to adopt and ...

Abstract

The effects of oil drilling towards the environment or any drilling of similar nature such as drilling of natural gas has been extensively discussed. Major stakeholders such as the government, the private sector and common people that are directly influenced by these drilling activities have different views towards this topic, which makes it more controversial. Some idealist stakeholders, for example, believe that oil drilling poses serious environmental threats. For the same reason, they believe that the risk outweighs the advantages and so these drilling activities must be stopped at once. On the other hand, those stakeholders that is benefiting ...

Hydraulic fracturing is a method that allows natural gas and oil to have free movement from the rock pores to a low permeability rock formation where they are trapped to come to the surface. The technology came into place in the 1940s and had been operational in most of the drilling stations. The method uses water, ceramic beads or sand, and other chemicals, as the main materials for the exercise. The mixture is pumped into the surface under high pressure and causes fractures in the rock that extends outward from the bore (Michael 2011). The main function of using the proppant ...
