If you happen to live in a large, or even mid-sized city, you may come across a great deal of homeless people. People who live without the most basic necessity, namely shelter, have become so common that many, more fortunate people do not even notice they have become a part of the new American landscape.

The terrorist bombing of a passenger terminal at Las Palmas Airport led to closure of the airport, and the diversion of considerable traffic to Los Rodeos (Tenerife) Airport with inadequate capacity (notably parking and staff). The congestion led to the routine back taxing, which put the two aircrafts on the runway. Other important causal factors include:

Leadership and management are often mistaken as the same thing. By definition, they are different. They can be defined by intention, as well as action. Managers are thought to lead their subordinates, when in reality they only control them. Leaders technically do not manage at all, but instead show an injustice that should be changed, and lead the fight against it. While the two positions are very different, and often conflicting, they somehow need each other, as well. Managers are too passive, and leaders are sometimes too aggressive. If there were a way for the two to meet in ...

Despite the logical expectation of the success of the pay-for-performance program introduced to educational facilities, the project is not considered as one. Even though the necessity of educational level increase is recognized, the P4P program may not be the right motivational solution for the teachers, since it has a list of its disadvantages for both, employer and employee. Not only it is difficult to establish and maintain a fair and working performance evaluation system, which would consider all of the aspects of teachers’ work, but it is also difficult to operate the human factor with its prejudice and attitudes. ...

Water scarcity, especially a scarcity of freshwater, is an increasingly disconcerting international issue, especially in Africa. This problem is caused by both natural and anthropological.

Demographic shifts including an exponential population growth demands that people use more water for food, the production of commodities, sanitation, different dietary needs, and other domestic uses within ...

The current discussion focuses on the socio-political ideas of Thomas Hobbes. In this regard, the matter of subordination and order is explicated through a prism of philosophers’ views on racism.

Thus, doctrines of Appiah are considered as pillars of political realism that is inherent to the judgments of thinker.

It is noteworthy to stress that the idea of the state has a particular meaning in terms of political realism that is included in the philosophy of Thomas Hobbes. Thereby, thinker’s suppositions about social ...

Intuitionism should be the most interesting phenomenon in modern philosophy. Intuitionism is a view, according to which the knowledge can be directly given to reason, as an inspiration insight, which is more comprehensive than a rational or sensual experience. In ethics it implies a point of view that the basic moral principles understood intuitively rather than through other cognitive processes.

Misconception of Kantian implied idealism that separating the mind from the appreciation of living, sensual contemplation, but also the metaphysical way of thinking, absolutizes distinction between direct and indirect knowledge and unable to find a valid way of development of knowledge.

Kant developed ...

The World War I with all its hostilities brought death and destruction across Europe. Millions of people died for the sacred purpose – to end all possible wars by getting involved into one massive war. In 1954, the Veterans Day received its official recognition (initially it was called Armistice Day) and became a national holiday that calls people to remember those soldiers who paid with their lives to ensure peace in the US. Without hesitation I would say that celebrating the Veterans Day is not only necessary, but also useful for the US to ensure its history and traditions being passed ...

I also realized the ubiquity and necessity of agriculture to human endeavors and the benefit to development that large agricultural enterprises can bring.
