UN POSITION ON NUCLEAR WEAPONS

There are more than two dozen countries of the world that have nuclear power, however, only a few have nuclear weapons and few are suspected of making nuclear weapons. During the cold war era between US and USSR, nuclear arms race was the most alarming feature as both the super powers rapidly built up their stockpiles of nuclear weapons. Later when both realized, there would be devastation caused by nuclear weapons, they embarked upon a number of agreements for reduction in the number of nuclear weapons. Efforts were speeded up after disintegration of the USSR; however, the issues remained Continue reading...

Pollution results to over 100,000 deaths. This is according to research from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Research from the institute’s laboratory conducting studies in the environment and aviation bases its findings that most emissions emanate from road transportation. It also emerges that road transportation is the single cause of pollution, and also results to premature death. In Baltimore for instance, Maryland is the city with highest deaths due to pollution, with over 100,000 deaths linked to air pollution as a result of industrial smoke. Pollution from transport sources is high. This is because most Continue reading...

Introduction

A black hole is a region in space-time, the gravitational attraction which is so large that it can not leave even objects moving at the speed of light, including photons of light itself. The boundary of this region is called the event horizon, and its characteristic dimension - the gravitational radius. In the simplest case of a spherically symmetric black hole Schwarzschild radius is equal to it.
Theoretically, the possible existence of such regions of space-time should be of some exact solutions of Einstein's equations, the first of which was obtained by Karl Schwarzschild in 1915. The exact inventor Continue reading...

Greenhouse gas effect refers to the process through which thermal radiation from the surface of the earth is absorbed and retained by the atmospheres’ greenhouse gases. The retained thermal radiation is then re-radiated in a distributive manner towards all directions. Some of the re-radiation are directed towards the lower layers of the atmosphere and the surface of the earth and consequently causes a higher temperature than the normallly expected temperature without the greenhouse gases.
The greenhouse effect occurs due to the following mechanism. The surface of the earth receives solar energy in the form of ultra violet (UV), near Continue reading...

- Introduction
Radiations such as  - rays, UV rays, etc. have ionizing effects on tissues and have the ability kill cells and inactivate viruses. A detailed analysis of the survival of such cells and viruses are imperative in many fields, including radiation oncology, public health and environmental photobiology. However, the mathematical and statistical tools based on target theory in radiobiology are mentioned in literature (Alpen, 1988, Smith, 1989, Hall, 2000) and are wide in use in the analysis of experimental data involving biophysical mechanisms of the repair of radiation damage. This work demonstrates the use of probabilistic approaches in descriptions Continue reading...

Introduction

United States Nuclear sector is one of the publicly administrated areas that provides wide employment opportunities and employs various recruitment structure and philosophies that can be attributed to general trends in global business world. That said, it is interesting to observe that the sector works with direct employment, community colleges and international programs that brings this sector in line with international Strategic Human Resource Management (HRM) tendencies and trends. This clash, as one could argue, of public organization and bureaucracy with modern trends receives special attention when it comes to the analysis of US Nuclear sector as a place Continue reading...

The Cold War was a global confrontation between the two military and political blocs led by the Soviet Union and the United States, which did not come down to an open military conflict. The concept of the "cold war" appeared in journalism in 1945-1947 and gradually stuck in the political dictionary.
After the Second World War, the world was actually divided into the spheres of influence of two blocks with different social systems. The Soviet Union and the United States have sought to expand their spheres of influence. But the rough equality of forces between the blocks, and then Continue reading...

Discussing the Use of Idioms in the English Language

INTRODUCTION
When we hear phrases like, “it is raining cats and dogs,” “a knight in shining armor,” and “once in a blue moon.” These phrases, or idioms, are not necessarily “self explanatory” and yet we seem to know what they mean, or at least we think we do (Oxford Royale Academy 2014). In order, respectively, they are saying that it is raining heavily, someone came to my rescue, and the last are things that happen very rarely. However, the understanding of these phrases is not innate. You may understand them, I may understand them but to someone who is Continue reading...

Question 1: Rationale and Comparative Advantages

The technology behind PET-MRI presents a major stride in terms of nuclear medicine. Since the inception of nuclear medicine as a discipline, the overall medical domain has received a huge boost in terms of precision in diagnosis and treatment (Boss at al., 2010).

Introduction

The First World War mirrored a technological trend toward the use of mass production procedures to the use of weapons for warfare. This development started half a century before the First World War and persisted in various conflicts in which weapons were brought to test. The Civil War was heavily influenced by new advancements in technology, especially railroads and guns. However, when the First World War began, the United States discovered itself to lack military technology.
The earlier periods of World War I symbolized a clash of the twentieth era technology with the nineteenth era combat in the form Continue reading...

Around the world, the United States Army is one of the strongest war forces. They face many instances of war because many countries see the United States as the “world power” in the economical and political arena. As such, the country needed to create an army that would stand up to any other country in time of war. The United States faced threats from all over the world because of their role as a member of the United Nations group of allies.

INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS: THE IRAN NUCLEAR CRISIS

Iran’s burgeoning nuclear activities seem to bear a threat as well as a challenge to international order. Iran has continued to mock the rule-based traditional system for preventing nuclear proliferation. In case the Islamic Republic decides to take a step further and weaponize the nuclear abilities of the country, the threat of war in the Middle Eastern region will become enhanced since Iran as well as its neighbors continue to modify themselves with the constant shifts in power and the stakes continue to grow higher.

Background

Nationalism in Iran coupled with the prevalent religious and ethnic tensions within the Continue reading...

Introduction

The research paper considers the benefits of nuclear power compared with generating energy from fossil fuel sources and discusses the reasons why nuclear power may be the better option, taking into account costs, safety, and – importantly – environmental pollution. Climate change and global warming are of major concern, and pollution and greenhouse gas emissions are significant considerations in the choice of safe energy sources for the future, along with costs and of course the safety aspects. The paper seeks to confirm that in contrast to the fossil-fuel plants used today to generate electricity, nuclear plants cost less to operate, are Continue reading...

Geog 315: Assignment 2 Literature review

Introduction
The Tohoku magnitude-9 earthquake occurred on March 11th 2011. Its epicenter was on the undersea floor of the Pacific Ocean, about 45 miles (72 kilometers) east of Tohoku in northeastern Japan, and at a depth of about 20 miles (32 km). The cause was the sudden movement at the junction of two tectonic plates – the Eurasian Plate rising over the Pacific Plate. The tremors lasted about six minutes, and caused a huge and devastating tsunami. Huge waves reached Japan’s coastline less than an hour after the earthquake itself, and in some locations travelled inland as far as Continue reading...

United Kingdom adopted the market for energy approach in 1982 under the stewardship of Mr. Nigel Lawson the then secretary of state in charge of energy. From that time, the power was to be a traded product, just like other commodities and it supply was to be settled in the marketplace. The adoption of that idea was slow and by the early 1990s, most of the energy parastatals had been privatised. Electricity, coal, gas and the nuclear power were all privatised. The old mechanisms and commands like Central Electricity Generating Board were replaced by many companies for generating and Continue reading...

Causes of the Cold War (1947-1953)

Unlike the other forms of warfare, a cold war finds its basis in the acts of sabotaging societal set ups of a country’s enemy. There is no clear definition of the Cold War but in “The Cold War: Conflicts in Europe and Asia” Philips (2001) states that the, “The Cold War is the term given to the period of poor relations between East and west” (p.159).With regard to this, the Cold War found basis in the emerging enmity between the United States of America and the Soviet Union. Consequently, the effects of the cold war Continue reading...

Sun plays crucial role in the life of the Earth. The entire organic world of our planet is obliged to the Sun for its existence. It is not only the source of light and heat, but also the original source of many other types of energy (oil, coal, water, wind). Since people appeared on the Earth, they began using the sun's energy. According to archaeological data, it is known that housing preference was given to quiet places, closed from the cold winds and open to the sun's rays.
Perhaps the earliest known solar system can be considered the statue Continue reading...
