Communicating with the world and the families of the trapped miners needs to be designed with the specific audience in mind. Minera, the sender, bore full responsibility for the information being distributed to the world’s media and the families of the miners.…
Terry Malloy obeys moral authority by choosing to inform on the corrupt union officials—that is, in the film he clearly makes the morally correct decision. Those on his side include a Catholic priest and a kind-hearted teacher trainee, and these endorsements increase the audience’s sympathy for one side over the other. Vicious doubt and derision about his potential choice affect Terry and all his friendships throughout the film, since the men are understandably concerned about their own jobs and their own lives. The closing scene, however, changes these feelings profoundly. The entire…

In 2010, every 2-hours three people were killed in alcohol-related highway crashes. The same year, The Coast Guard reported 154 recreational boating fatalities , 22.9%, of which involved alcohol use as a contributing factor. (Drunk Drivers by the Numbers 2012) By contrast, trains and metros have significant fewer incidents and deaths involving alcohol but these sporadic events can cause larger, more wide spread destruction. This is why the United States Government has taken measures to ensure that public train and metro services are run and conducted by individuals that are alcohol free. In this paper I will explore the repercussions when these measures were not in place or were not enforced by over-viewing significant alcohol related train…
On August 5, 2010 a mine owned by Minera San Esteban in Northern Chile, collapsed trapping 33 workers 2,300 feet underground for a length of two months. While trapped underground the normal shift leader managed the workers lives allowing them to survive until they were rescued. Because the ventilation shafts were not damaged during the collapse, the miners were able to breathe fresh air. A year after being rescued and sharing their stories to the world, it was said many of the miners were unemployed and broken more than before. The miners were delivered small amounts of food, sugar, and other items needed to survive until they were rescued. Once the men were rescued, they came out from the cave energized, healthy, and cheering happy to see family and friends, shocking everyone around. The miners tried to file a lawsuit against the mining company, but nothing was accomplished leaving the trapped miners emotionally distressed and mentally sick. The mine was force to shut down and make safety improvements, but it was never achieved.…

When handling a tragic event such as this there are many things to take into consideration. There are going to be many different people that are going to be affected by this catastrophe. First and foremost is the family of the employees that are trapped in the mine. There biggest concern would be to know that their loved ones are ok and are going to be rescued. In a case like this you would want to give the family a positive message and reassure them that the company is doing everything they can to rescue them and make it as comfortable as possible. Second, would be to communicate to the rest of the internal employees of the situation and reinforce to them that working for this company is safe. I think that it would be a good idea to tell them how this happened and steps the company is taking to assure that it will not happen again. Both of these things are hard and complicated to do, but can be done effectively if the message is communicated the correct way. I think that a video conference would be a good way to send the message for the family members involved. For the employees an email from the president would be preferred. I also think that management should also have a meeting to discuss the email with everyone in there department. The two drafts of the message that should be sent are below.…

Apple cider has been around for many years. Even though apple cider can be purchased in the local grocery stores, it’s best to make apple cider homemade. Why? Because the store bought apple cider cannot compare to the taste of fresh homemade apple cider. Drinking apple cider can have many benefits since apples are good for lowering cholesterol and improving lung health. Therefore, having fresh and homemade cider can be very healthy and inexpensive.…
It’s long been one of ancient history’s most intriguing mysteries: Why did the Maya, a remarkable civilization, suddenly collapse when it seemed to be in a good position to continue? Although the Mayan people never entirely disappeared, many of their past homes in the Americas went from busy cities to abandoned ruins. These abandoned ruins are the result of issues inside the tribes and cities that brought down their way of life. These issues could be internal reasons, such as a failing government or a large population. The collapse could also be the result of external factors such as environmental disasters and wars against outsiders. All of these elements, when added, give us an idea that the Mayan civilization was pushed into the decline and collapse of one of the strongest human civilizations in history.…
