Relationships By Richard Holl (Copied from my blog Please listen‚ http://indigo-energy.blogspot.com/p/relationships.html) It is fitting that the last page I add to this blog is relationships. No man or woman is an island even if they choose to live like a hermit. There are two relationships no one can avoid. The first is between you and the universe or if you prefer‚ your environment. The second is between your sense of self and your sense of others and other things which is sometimes

In 2004‚ Kim and Mauborgne published their study‚ where they analyzed 150 companies from 30 different industries over the time span of 100 years (Kim & Mauborgne‚ 2005). They named two type of different markets called Blue Ocean and Red Ocean. According to their report‚ only the companies in Blue Ocean has succeeded to make

ecologically crucial habitats. The key process that has resulted in this extensive damage to coral reefs is termed ocean acidification‚ which is defined as the increase in oceanic acidity as a result of the uptake of atmospheric CO₂. Over the past 200 years‚ more than 30% of all CO₂ that has been emitted to the atmosphere as a result of anthropogenic activity has been absorbed by the oceans (Anthony et al. 2008). Such drastic changes in oceanic pH are having multiple adverse impacts upon coral reefs

on Blue Ocean Strategy The Blue Ocean strategy appears to be an ideal move in the market until I learned its own drawbacks. Its advice is to create an uncontested market space‚ meaning no competition. I consider it a head start‚ yet it would just be an amount of time before others stand at-level with you. A first entrant earns the early profit‚ and the second entrant will likely perceive the first as a platform and eventually overtakes the same firm. Another drawback of the blue ocean is the

planet. However‚ eventually the planet started cooling down; huge amounts of steam rose causing clouds. Then the clouds rained. One thousand years of continuous raining caused oceans which made earth like it is today. Planet Earth‚ also known as the blue planet‚ has oceans covering three quarters of the Earth’s surface. Oceans have a system to try and keep the water temperatures even‚ whether or not the climate is the same. This is called the ‘Thermohaline Conveyer’. This is when water from the Tropics

The ocean is home to many of the most prominent‚ yet commonly looked over‚ indicators of anthropogenic climate change present in society today. Often these indicators are in connection with many other obvious‚ more recognized factors such as the emission of greenhouse gases or the drastic change in global temperatures. More specifically‚ ocean acidity can be looked at very closely to determine the severity of the situation of climate change‚ and how it is consistently affecting our planet’s marine

Ocean Carriers Assumptions and Methodology Based on an NPV analysis considering multiple scenarios‚ Ocean Carriers should commission the construction of a new capesize carrier in the event they are operating with no corporate tax and chartering the ship for its entire 25 year life. Such is the recommendation assuming the forecasted hire rates and estimated costs are accurate over the long-term. However‚ if Ocean Carriers chooses to adhere to their policy of selling ships at market value

The ocean has captivated mankind since the beginning of time. The Challenger Expedition‚ the first modern oceanography expedition‚ only began in 1872(“History of Oceanography”). Why was it that we ignored ocean research for so long? We have only “dipped our toes in the water” (Cousteau 194) and many people are afraid of taking a dive. However‚ ocean exploration is most certainly worth the risks‚ as the benefits of ocean research far outweigh the risks. Just two benefits of ocean research include
