You were warned of an impending risk Have this thought in mind. You were warned of an impending risk, say a fire accident. You were told that all you needed to do to ensure that you don’t catch fire is to stay in a safe distance to avoid static energy that may ignite the fire. What would you do? Perhaps you would avoid contact. Would it mean not enjoying that random chat with a friend? No. we are currently presented with such a situation in the name of the Covid 19. And I am here to tell you how we can overcome this situation by choosing to keep a safe distance. I have recently been thinking about simple roles that we can play that would help us evade disaster at a time of adversity as this one. I have learned through observation of how social distancing is beneficial to the world. Significantly, social distancing has several advantages that are likely to be overlooked because of stubbornness and ignorance, which are elements in human nature. Let’s start with the problem at…
Could the Civil War have been avoided? The civil war could have been avoided. There are various changes that America had to stop the civil. One is to eliminate Lincoln as the president since he was one of the key causes of the war. In the view of most scholars, he was seen to favor the Northern states and, on the other hand, had little support from the Southern States. To resolve the problem, it would have been wise to impeach President Lincoln and replace him with a one who cared less about the Confederate States (Hill, n.p). Another cause of the war was slavery; the southern states upheld slavery, while the Northern states were strong condemners of slavery. Resistance would have been impossible if the two approached anti-slavery in unison. A war nearly broke due to mismanagement of the expansion of the United States’ pacific. The Adams treaty led to the American-Mexican war and Texas revolution due to the unnecessary renouncement claim to Texas. The issue could have been resolved by engaging all the parties into a discussion rather…
importance of pay secrecy and supporting the employers’ assertion of the benefits of the pay secrecy Pay secrecy is, for sure a known and common policy that many corporations, particularly in the US, have utilized to prohibit employees from discussing their pay. The pay secrecy policy has however, had criticisms from many factions including employees and researchers. They believe that pay secrecy is illegal and dysfunctional because it demotivates employees and sometimes makes them feel about quitting their jobs. David Burkus even analyzes that pay transparency could surely benefit both the employers and employees as opposed to the assertion of many employers that the policy only helps them and the workplace at large (Burkus, 2016). Nonetheless, this paper analyzes the importance of pay secrecy and supporting the employers’ assertion of the benefits of the pay secrecy. I concur with David Burkus that one of the core objectives of employers in to minimize their cost as possible and to have pay secrecy in place, the employers can save lots of money when it comes to factors such as hiring salary raise…
Losing yourself Losing yourself is a point in life whereby one lives a false consciousness by pretending he is in a better position than is. This is one of the problems that you face when you do not value your life. You give other people more than they deserve from you, thereby losing your wrath. Once you lose yourself, you become useless, and you are carried out by the earthly deeds. Learn to be you and do what you can to solve your problems alone. When you are controlled by something or someone, you become more of a robot since you will be required to do everything as it is demanded from you. Value your life and respect, and you will walk on the right path. Losing yourself has a lot of impact in your life, such as following someone’s action and bearing the consequences while you are not benefiting from. Also, you became absorbed by society and termed as appropriate. Love your life and listen to the ways from which you can control yourself from being lost in the…

Tragic discussion from “The Road” film Tragedy in usual scenario defines an occurrence that causes excellent suffering distress as well as destruction, for instance, a severe accident natural catastrophe or even crime but in our philosophical aspect and evaluation of tragedy as a depiction of suffering experienced on the stage or in another medium The integral accident Virilio had the belief that technology cannot be in existence without the potential for accidents. He also argued out that the invention of the locomotive also contained the design of derailment. The thoughts of philosophers like Aristotle claiming that there is no science of the accident were disagreed by Virilio, who pointed out that that the growing credibility of simulators was designed to escape the disaster. Where he argued that an industry was born from the unholy marriage of the world war two science (Cormac Mccarthy). Within the most potent insights present in human art is the ability to reveal the emotional concepts of the critical theological essence. For example, literary the genre of tragedy probes with honesty how the inevitability of…
drinking water, Boston Harbor and water reserve The various public, private and in between goods that are mentioned in this case study are drinking water, Boston Harbor and water reserve. Feasibility of exclusion is a term used to indicate how hard or easy it is to access to a good or service. In this case, the main good under discussion is drinking water. Unlike previous accessibility of municipal water, it is clear that the municipal water is difficult to access for the public use in Boston. This is as a result of increased fee for obtaining water from their well to obtain a fee to facilitate the cleaning of the sewage. This forced some people to opt for drilling private wells, to reduce the costs and making water more accessible to them. For instance, Legal Sea Foods, a Boston restaurant chain drilled its well which is capable of producing enough water to serve them as well as reducing $2,500 in one month cost compared to the fee paid for the municipal pool. By doing this, they are making water more…

Mojave desert Mojave desert is the driest desert in North America, located in the south-western part of North America. It is found between Southern Nevada and South Eastern California and lies on one hundred and twenty-four thousand kilometers square. Some of the Mojave deserts extend towards Arizona and Utah. It borders on Colorado plateau to the East, the Great Basin Desert to the North, Sonoran, and Colorado deserts to the South. Other topographical boundaries include; Inyo and Sierra Nevada mountains in Northwest, Sierra Pelona Ridge and Tehachapi Mountains to the West, San Bernardino and San Gabriel Mountains to the South. Two rivers run across it; Mojave and Colorado. The boundaries created are distinctly outlined by two California faults- Garlock and San Andreas. It is within (35° 0.5’N, 115° 28.5’W) longitudinal and latitudinal measures. Mojave desert shows regular basin and range topographical outlines. In this study, I intend to discuss Mojave basin and range, climatic conditions, characteristics of organisms that exist there and summarized ecological research. The Mojave Desert experiences below fifty-one millimeters of rain annually and is between two thousand…
Emerging Enterprise Network Applications Enterprise applications have been upgraded to a distributed architecture, hence becoming a vital element in every enterprise. Irrespective of the protocols, the development of the network infrastructure has been revolutionary, across all the business processes.
