Come and sit on the log. I have a story to tell you. There was a mischievous duck who grew up in the swamps of Louisiana area. This was very special duck. His name was Blue. The story goes like this: he turned blue when he swam in the cold pond one morning. His home was under the old wooden cabin. Blue loved to waddle over to the barn and listen to the sounds of the farm engines. His mother would often scold him. "You''ll get hurt over there," she would say. However, the smell of motor oil and the sounds of the noise of the engines would thrill him. He would sit by the hour watching people working on the engines. Blue knew when they made the right decisions to make the engines run better.

Bachelor Thesis from the year 2005 in the subject Engineering - Safety Engineering, grade: B, Makerere University (Department of Civil Engineering), course: Civil Engineering, language: English, abstract: The building sector is growing very fast and essential to Uganda’s development involving construction of buildings. Workers operate in unsafe environment and accidents are a common occurrence at building sites. The main objective of the study has been to assess the safety of workers at building sites in Uganda, and arose out of the need to have a safer working environment. Safety and what influences it have been examined and the most effective preventive and mitigation measures, which can be adopted, that are compatible with the practices and technologies available looked at. The methodology adopted involves; an extensive literature review, collection of data by use of questionnaires, on-spot site checks plus oral interviews at building sites. Data analysis by a suitable statistical program (SPSS) and results presented. The findings of study are; that the stakeholders are not well trained in safety planning and management yet they have a major role in providing and maintaining a safety at building sites, the protective gear and first aid provided is not sufficient, and awareness plus attitude towards safety at all level is poor. A safety assessment tool for building sites has been developed, conclusions and recommendations made, which include integrating safety into overall professional training and site management, plus creation of a positive safety culture through behavioral change by all stakeholders. Overall objectives of the study have been achieved.

The world needs servant leaders, people who love unconditionally, give of themselves sacrificially, and leave a legacy worth following. If each of us would choose to be a servant leader, we could change the effect of the generational dysfunctions that exists in our world today. In Servant Leadership: Leading Today for a Better Tomorrow, John Wallace Whitehead poses that we have a model of servant leadership to follow. That model is Jesus, whose method has stood the test of time. Inspired by Him, we will not only begin to focus on identifying and operating from our strengths, but we can become better leaders by understanding our weaknesses and shortcomings. Servant Leadership: Leading Today for a Better Tomorrow will help its readers not only become the leaders Jesus created them to be--it will allow them to lead others to Him.

In the 1920s general relativity, a macroscopic theory, met quantum mechanics, microscopic theory, head on and there was a clash and they never came together. Pieces were missing from both quantum mechanics and relativity. Those missing parts left quantum mechanics an approximation with no foundation and no correct connection to relativity. The failure persisted since one model was erroneously limited to the small and the other to the large. The fundamental problem that kept the theories separate hinged on an old mathematical difficulty of what constitutes a physical boundary between space. Taking on this problem has resulted in a major revision of quantum mechanics.

The purpose of this report is to analyze the zoning change process in Austin, Texas. The report examines Austin''s type of city government followed by an overview of zoning in the United States and Austin. The report chronicles the evolution of the Austin Tomorrow Comprehensive Plan and the Neighborhood Planning Area during the time period 1979-1997. Since 1997, zoning change protocol has become intertwined with neighborhood planning such that both must be discussed in detail. The extreme real estate cycles from 1982 to the present are also discussed. Economic conditions played a key role in the slow enactment of neighborhood planning in Austin. The report examines the jurisdictional boundaries of Austin and the governmental bodies charged with hearing zoning cases. After discussing the motivations of the market participants seeking zoning changes, the report analyzes four case studies to illustrate the basic types of zoning cases today. Finally, the report draws conclusions and offers suggestions for improving the efficiency and fairness of the zoning change process in Austin, Texas.
