Causes and Repairs of Boiler Tube Failure in Ships Introduction Several marine safety and risks are associated with the ship engines, including the boiler tube. A ship’s engine is a complex structure in terms of the machinery in it and the systems that operate the voyage on board. The marine boiler is one of the most integral machinery in the ship’s engine as it is used to perform different functions such as heating of fuel that maintains the engine. Moreover, the boiler tubes also carry risks that can be fatal if not identified and repaired on time. Enhancing the boiler safety on board is one of the interventions that the marine engineering operatives have perfected in recent times, with research and development approaches focusing on the boiler tube. This machinery can have catastrophic outcomes when it fails to operate effectively, thus culminating into the explosion, meltdown, scalding, and hot surface, among others. This can be dangerous on board, hence the need to underscore the potential risk factors and the remedies to ascertain the safety measures. Understanding the causes of the…

Many people get challenges when developing a vision on how life will look like after change, so they tend to cling to what they know than what they don’t know (Cameron & Green,2019). Therefore, resistance to change is an obvious thing, even the cooperatives and supportive employees experience it. So, it’s well to introduce change with a positive mind and believing that the employees will cooperate and support it as time goes by. What happens when resistance occurs Employees lose a sense of security due to fear of unpredictable impacts. Every employee gets affected when the idea of change comes hence creating anxiety and uncertainty. If employees think the difference will be disruptive hence covert (Cameron & Green,2019).

Do you believe that labeling terrorism as a crime that can be committed domestically has changed policing? How? Why? Provide examples. Yes. Labeling domestic crimes as terrorism has changed law enforcement. For many years, the US constitution has failed in executing deserving punishment to lawbreakers, especially in cases of domestic terrorism. Federal Hate Crimes Statutes have been used in dealing with cases of terrorism within the states from 1968 but has failed terribly in protecting Americans. Due to new cases, it has been amended periodically to fit the degree of crime and making new precedents. The US federal government has remained agile on security since the September 11, 2001 terror attacks. Years later, the country has been prone to attacks not only domestically but internationally.

They had gathered in Tree of Life Synagogue for a worship service. Being a domestic attack, the court charged him under federal statutes on hate crimes for violating the worshipers’ freedom of religious beliefs…

The technology was the underlying factor in last presidential elections in the united states of America, debates, soundbites, and scandals defined the election through the internet. Emails online voting, electronic voting booths, and voter data mining have become the political mainstream, but the influence of technology in the American political landscape extends beyond election day.
