The Ever-Looming Threat of Climate Change - 730 Words

Ever since the late 1970’s, global warming has commonly been considered a hot issue. While the initial craze has died down a bit during the past decade, the overall influence of global warming has definitely left a mark on our eternally evolving society. Naturally, thanks to a handful of documentaries that set out primarily to give the general public a definition of what global warming exactly was and the dangers that it would bring along with its presence, the ever-looming threat of climate change roots itself within most of the population’s minds. As a result of this, such threats have grown to become slightly exaggerated over time, causing several to needlessly panic over what should be considered a nonissue. The truth is that global warming should not really be viewed as a serious affair by anyone, as it is only a part of a natural cycle our planet goes though from time to time. However, in order to fully understand why the current climate change should be considere d on the same level as the seasonal cycles our planet goes through on a yearly basis, it is undeniably important to have clear understanding on what global warming really is. On a similar note, it also equally crucial to know that there is a specific difference between the phrases â€Å"global warming† and â€Å"climate change†. While they both seem synonymous with each other, NASA’s definition of global warming is defined strictly as â€Å"the increase in Earth’s average surface temperature due to the rising levels ofShow MoreRelatedOverpopulation Is It Climate Change?

Sample of effectiveness of Osmotics Communication

Question: Write a discussion section that thoroughly describes what was "learned" in the case study on osmotic communications? Answer: A good external communication can only be achieved when the internal communication is excellent (Carlson Crawford, 2012). We have already discussed the advantages and disadvantages of osmotic communication. Osmotic communication is an excellent method until the team size gets too big. One can speak here about ones troubles in a team without any fear of retaliation. For instance, the team manager can be informed if the schedule is unrealistic or when the code of a colleague needs to be refactored. The weaknesses inside a team can be judged and repaired without much effort. The team should focus on the task at hand and to attain this, they should learn time management. Time management is a huge factor in these types of communications (Gabellone, 2015). Hence, a strategy should be adopted to focus time. For example, setting a fixed guaranteed time every single day and scheduling people to execute the same task for a number of fixed days. An expert user needs to be accessible to the tea m in order to utilize as well as test the deliveries which are being sent frequently. In osmotic communications there is a feature of automated testing which helps the team members to move around freely during any time. The configuration management permits people to drop in and out of the tasks whenever they find it convenience. Hence, asynchronous checking in is allowed. When system integrations are frequently being done, mistakes and other errors that are being collected can be easily detected (Moalla, 2013). The important concepts learned are: Information radiator this is a tool for communication which displays information to the team in real-time ("Open Access", 2015). The tools used are generally of low cost such as white boards, bulletining boards etc. Everyone in the workspace is responsible for retrieving as well as updating the information. Team space it refers to the co-location of the members in the team for open and free collaboration and discussions. This aims to provide a close space to the team members for working efficiently but also maintaining some personal privacy (Schneckloth, 2009). Daily scrum this is the regular planning and communication meeting which is held to keep a track of the daily progress of the iteration. Several questions are being discussed in this meeting and answers are sought after (Carlson Crawford, 2012). This is the final step in any process that involves osmotic communication. Tooling this refers to the tools which are used to make the communication more effective such as, reduction of roadblocks so that information can be collected, maintained and dissipated easily (Gabellone, 2015). The types of tools are: Low-tech high-touch tools Co-located teams Distributed teams In osmotic communication, any development process which does not provide any contribution to the customer value is eliminated. This process helps to learn better about the needs of the customers and testing strategies. A short product development cycle time should be created in order to minimize the time between receiving a request and delivering the same. In osmotic communication, control and planning is based on responsibility i.e. the management fully trusts the team and the team repay this by executing the task efficiently (Moalla, 2013). Although it is necessary that the goals provided to the team are realistic and reasonable. Although, there may be frequent conflicts among the team members but conflicts is the part and parcel of any organization. Conflicts generally arise due to difference in opinions and it is necessary sometimes to know about the perspectives of every member in a team ("Open Access", 2015). This is why sometimes open communication is avoided in companies to avoid conflicts since too many conflicts are definitely not a good thing for a firm. Hence, here are some tips compiled to develop an environment where osmotic communication can flourish: Being alert to signs or behaviors showing discontent When communications are choked or rerouted, employees might be rolling their eyes or sighing. Hence, the origin of this dissatisfaction needs to be unrevealed (Schneckloth, 2009). Leaders often ignore these signs as they think that they are incapable of changing it or sometimes they think that it is the way employees generally are. Respecting, encouraging and trusting employees Employees are the most valuable assets of an organization. They should be made to feel safe as well as secure. If there is an atmosphere of fear, the environment for communication may get dysfunctional resulting in counterproductive behaviors. Trusting oneself Good communication skills and confidence are the basic requirements in a leader. To learn about communication means to learn about one and others as well. This would create a trust in oneself and the most favorable level of frankness will be attained and would also give the leader power to handle any type of employee situation arising in the team (Schneckloth, 2009). Perseverance Team members should never feel that their opinions are not welcomed. People and key issues need to be in a continuing relationship where the number of disagreements should be too less. Everybody should try to reach the same or similar conclusions which would be benefitting the company and its employees too. To move forward the issues related with the workplace need to be solved with determination. An action oriented plan should be developed so that employees can delve into the issues for the absolute truth and also reach to an agreement point. The manifesto of this osmotic communication prefers interactions and individuals over the tools and processes. The principle is that business people along with developers should work together to achieve the project goals. Projects are built around motivated and encouraged individuals. Thus, a sustainable process is promoted (Gabellone, 2015). Here, the team focuses on ways for being productive and they are self-organizing. Thus, a team which promotes osmotic communication has several advantages and features. If used correctly, the company will be benefitted by large. References Carlson, J., Crawford, M.

The most influential musician from 1870 to 1950

This paper tries to look at some of the greatest musician of all times to ever walk on the face of the world. The methodology that we are going to adapt for the essence of this debate will be based on the musician influence in relation to fun base and popularity during their time. Advertising We will write a custom essay sample on The most influential musician from 1870 to 1950 specifically for you for only $16.05 $11/page Learn More It will also use their success in the music industry which will be gauged by the number of times their records have held the first position in the billboards and also the number of record sells not only in America, but in the rest of the world. The source material for this discussion will include journals and articles that give reference to the musician’s success and influence during their time. It is critical to mention that between 1870-1950 music and performance was on an upsurge, it was not until after the 1950 th at most of the musicians and bands rose to make the most world changing hits that have gone down in history as the top fifty greatest songs with only one being of pre-1950 to make on the list. The song by Hank Williams â€Å"I’m so lonesome I could cry† is the only song from the top fifty greatest songs to be featured before 1950. The two musicians this debate will focus on will include Harry Launder and Hank Williamsas the casing point (Brackett7). Harry Launder is one of the greatest musicians and a performer in the Scottish and British realm.The entertainer was born in 1870 in Portobello Edinburgh to a John Launder a designer in China artefacts and Isabella a descendant from the black isle. Harry Launder started his early careerby working at the coal mines at the tender age of thirteen years and also realised his potential in singing at the time. He started performing his music shortly after getting married to Anna Vallance in 1891 (Gordon20). Launders first profes sional performance took place at a local Lark hall where he used to make about five shillings each night. He later moved to perform at the â€Å"go-as-you please† which was amore prestigious event in the town and made him prominent among the local community. Fame and fortune for Harry Launder came around 1905 when he successfully led a troop of pantomimes known as the Howard and Wyndham. This catapulted Launder to become one of the greatest performers in England and these lead to various contracts and music deals. Launder was estimated to earn  £1000 a night for his performances in the United States by the year 1911. In the following year Launder topped the charts in Britain becoming the first British in the history of entertainment(Graeme25).Advertising Looking for essay on art and design? Let's see if we can help you! Get your first paper with 15% OFF Learn More Some of the greatest hits by Harry Launder include â€Å"Roamin in the Gloamin†, â€Å"I love a Lassie†, â€Å"Keep right unto the end of the road† and â€Å"A wee Deoch-an-Doris†. These songs made Launder the highest paid performer of his time with an estimated amount of  £12,700 for each performance (Williams 138; Lauder 14). During his forty year music career, Launder had made twenty two visits to the United States and a couple of other trips to Australia with his own train. Other accolades to his title include being knighted after the world war one for raising  £1million for the troops to be rehabilitated and inculcated to the society. According to the Prime Minister Winston Churchill, Harry Launder had rendered to the Scottish race and entire British Empire an immeasurable service through his music and philanthropy. Harry Launder died in 1950 at the age of 79 years leaving behind a legacy of songs, books and films that he had written or stirred in (William70). The other musician to make history in the music industry was Hank Williams. He was born in 1923 with his birth name being Hiram King William (Brackett 32). Hiram would later change his name to Hank which sounded well according to him in country songs. In 1937, Hank would start his career in a radio station WSFA with the producer offering him a program of 15 minutes as the host with a salary of $15. This was after Hank had won a talent show at the Empire theatre pocketing the grand price of $15. With the rising popularity Hank would go on to form a band with the money he got from the radio show which he called â€Å"the drifting cowboys†, and this eventually led him to quit school.Hank would record songs like â€Å"Never again† and â€Å"Honky Tonkin† which did not do better. It was only after releasing the song â€Å"Move it on over†, that fame and fortune started to stream in.In1948,he signed a recording contract with MGM records. The following year, Hank went on to release â€Å"Love sick blues† which propelled his music to the mainstream media thus increasing his popularity as a singer. According to Helander (9), Hank was estimated to make $1000 at this point in his career for every performance he went. It is important to mention that, Hank had eleven number one songs in the American chart since 1948-1953 making him the most successful American musician of his time and also the most popular America singer only for his record to be broken by the likes of Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson in years after (Flippo16)Advertising We will write a custom essay sample on The most influential musician from 1870 to 1950 specifically for you for only $16.05 $11/page Learn More Other hits by Hank that have gone down in history of music include â€Å"You’re cheatin heart†, â€Å"Hey, Good looking† and â€Å"I’m so lonesome I could cry†. Even though by this time Hank had become a star, he nevertheless had issues that cut off his career and life. Ex cessive consumption of alcohol and morphine and other painkillers saw him being divorced by his wife and being kicked out of the band. Hank died in 1953 at the tender age of 29 years (Graeme 38). Hanks songs and composition have been used by other musicians in different fields such as pop, blues, gospel and even rock which have become instant hits (Wallace 84) In conclusion, it is critical to mention that the above artists even though they have a divergent appeal in relation to their music genre, their success is varied in regards to one opinion.It is crucial to mention that they made music that changed the world and entertained their audience even years after they themselves had gone. They achieved musical success at their time that made them become icons of their time. This aspect has been proved by both fame and fortune that this musicians were able to produce through their songs and lastly and the most important legacy to leave behind is their music which up to date resonate to the audience delight.
