Safety Training: A Must for Every Industry
safety Training Programs have now become the integral part of most of the industries. Almost in every type of industry or corporate office, one can see the posters which remind their employees about the safe work. Companies are using the bulletins boards outside their industries or mills which can depict the safe operation of the workplace. There are different parts of the effective and mandatory safety programs. Each company must have a supervisor who should make sure that all the employees of the company in the healthy state. This article explains some of the components which are essential for the safety training program.
Should have an organized plan in written form: All the companies should keep one thing in mind that time management is the biggest aspect for complete execution and implementation of any kind of plan. And it is impossible to implement a plan if all the things are not present in the written form. There are different safety plans which can be used as the initiative plan. Companies should make a choice of the plan according to their needs. Each and every description should be spelled out in the plan.
Warning Signs and the Posting Labels: If something hazardous is associated with the particular machine or a job, then it is always good to remind the employees and other workers with the help of signs, labels, posters and postings. Changing or rotating the posters and signs is always considered to be a good idea so that workers should always have a watch on these signs and labels.
Sessions for Onsite Team: A different kind of short and informal training should be given to the people who are spending most of their time outside the office. For example, in case of sales team, each and every member of the sales team should be aware of the operations of the lifts, fire extinguishers and other on-road safety precautions. So, beside the sales training program, sales team must also be acquainted with safety training and the best thing is to keep changing the training programs in order to keep them better.
CoSHH Management - How to Store Chemicals
It is crucial that chemical products are stored in compliance with CoSHH regulations as this article emphasizes. It looks at how workers health can be affected by inefficient procedures when using chemical products.
There are certain simple procedures which need to be adhered to in order to prevent an adverse reaction. For example, exposing your hands to water for long periods can lead to dermatitis. There are also certain cleaning products which can cause skin allergies and asthma. Some corrosive cleaning products can cause skin burns and eye damage.
It is crucial to follow good working policies so as to avoid ill health. Contact with chemicals should be kept to a mimimum and leaks and spillages should be reduced. A spill clean-up kit must be provided close by. It is imperative that all cleaning products are stored in a safe and organised manner.
Another important point is to ensure that the store area is kept well ventilated at all times. The storage area must also be kept clean and organised. Any spillages must be cleaned up immediately and any liquids must be absorbed in granules. Any spillages should then be moved to a marked secure container with a lid. Hazardous waste should then be disposed of by a specialist contractor.
Only workers who have been trained in the use of chemical products should have access to them and they must ensure that the storage container remains locked. A first aid plan must be in place for workers who have contact with products that can cause skin or eye damage. Good hand washing facilities should be available on site. It is vital that hands are kept clean to avoid cross contamination. Hands must be washed and dried thoroughly, and then cream applied.
Employees should have easy access to personal protective equipment (PPE), which may include items such as protective gloves, aprons and eye protection. Follow any instructions given on product labels and if necessary ask your safety Clothing Supplier to help you get the right PPE. Your respiratory protective equipment (RPE) supplier ought to be contacted should RPE be required as a result of a spillage. It is advised that single use nitrile protective gloves are used, and are thrown away every time they are taken off. If latex gloves are used, they must only be 'low protein, powder free' gloves.
It is imperative that certain chemicals are segregated to prevent a reaction. Always separate solid and liquid products, flammable and non flammable liquids, acids and alkalis and wastes. Chemical products need to be stored at a minimum and in a cool dark place which can contain any spills. All chemicals should be stored in containers with lids. All containers in storage should have labels which face frontwards, and the containers should be easy to pour from so as to prevent spills or liquid being trapped in the rim. Any heavy items and corrosive chemicals should be stored on lower shelves. Solid chemicals should preferably be bought in tablet form, or alternatively stored in a container with a wide neck which makes it easier to spoon out granules.

What is Professionalism
Much is spoken about behaving professionally. Most people can actively recognise professionalism or the lack of it in others, but find it extremely difficult to define it, or model it when considering their own behaviour.
So lets unpick exactly what we mean by professionalism.
Think about the people you respect most because they are the consummate professional. Can you identify the elements that made them so good?
I've asked this question of so many groups of people and the replies have included the following:
* A good role model for others including, their behaviour, attitude and relationships
* Good Time Keepers - always in before time, uses time well
* Dresses appropriately for the role
* Speaks in a way which is appropriate to each different audience without being patronising or putting people down.
* Knowledgeable about the job, organization, etc.
*Good with people
*Communicate effectively, whatever the circumstances - actively listens
*Manages their time well
*Works well under pressure
*Fulfils deadlines
*Prioritises effectively - Is prepared to put in the time and effort to get things done, but also manages to have a reasonable work life balance
*Is accountable and takes responsibility for what they do and say, and for what they leave undone
Look more deeply into the issue of professionalism and you begin to realise that professionalism includes all of those strands above but also so much more.
Those who are thoroughly professional, demonstrate a rounded personality. They are able to act as a good role model for their colleagues. They have the ability to take the rough with the smooth, and are always consistent with others whatever their personal circumstance or problems may be. They never take their frustrations out on others.
The experienced professional behaves appropriately in all situations:
They know when it is appropriate to have a laugh over a coffee and when to behave formally. They are able to run effective meetings. They are well versed in when to speak out and when to bite their tongue. They do not feel the need to be seen to be always right or stand on their dignity. They are prepared to play the long game and wait for time and experience to prove their point. They do not dodge the issues but tackle them without aggression or anger. They can always say hand on heart "I expect high standards from my team and I demonstrate the same high standards at all times".
The consummate professional demonstrates a generosity of spirit, there is no need for their own ego to take centre stage, they allow the credit to be taken where it is deserved.
The professional person is open to the views of others and the possibility that there might be a better way. They make decisions based on the best interest of the organisation. They are fair and even handed to all people even those they do not particularly like. The professional evaluates their own performance, has high expectations of themselves and others and constantly strives to improve.
Professionals see them selves as part of the solution rather than the problem.
If you are keen to succeed in any business you need to demonstrate the appropriate levels of professionalism. If you want promotion in the future start to demonstrate that you have the potential to fulfil that role. Just wanting the job, the title, status and financial reward is simply not enough.
Show your commitment, your ability to come up with the goods, others will begin to notice and it will hold you in good stead whether you go for an internal promotion or need a reference for an external promotion.
You will also gain a huge amount of personal satisfaction in knowing you have what it takes to be a great professional.

Anti Aging Skin Care Products: The Evolution
During the last 10 years more attention is paid to the anti aging skin care. Developments within this category were influenced by such factors as competition among the major brands, introduction of new technologies and new ingredients, as well as worldwide increase in demand for the so-called "rejuvenating cosmetics". People have no intentions of putting up with aging. Today they are turning to alternative therapies and anti aging products; however, they will not spend money on products which do not produce the wished results.
First anti aging skin care products appeared during the late 1980s. The first liposome ingredient delivery system was part of first generation anti aging skin care.
David Jago, an expert in the market analysis for MINTEL, evaluates the changes, which have taken place since then: "At present, the special properties, ingredients and benefits of the products are clearly shown on the label. In the late 1980s, it was only said that those products were firming, softening the skin, reducing lines etc., but their functional ingredients were usually not disclosed. Today’s press often informs us of specific ingredients and their benefits, thus contributing to the consumers’ education". As a result, there appeared a category of skin care products intended for specific age groups or needs. Usually, women aim at making their aging skin look younger, or their young skin - healthier.
In the beginning of 1990s, many anti aging skin care ingredients have been studied. The most important of those, Alpha Hydroxyl Acids (AHA), became the first ingredients to affect the aging skin. Sally Penford, of the International Dermal Institute, a postgraduate training school for therapists, comments: "It stimulated women to start considering cosmetic surgery, glycolic acid peels and laser skin treatments".
Another "great revolution" in anti aging skin care has been in the use of A, C and E vitamins, as well as group B vitamins and main fatty acids – they all have a special role of agents preventing premature aging. Of course they do not make miracles, but can support the good condition of the skin. As skin ages and is repeatedly exposed to harmful UV rays, the level of vitamin A, produced in the body, constantly decreases. The skin renewal processes slow down and the epidermal layer becomes progressively thinner. Some of the research of the ingredients, such as vitamin C, was held in 1990s. Further, scientists identified two key chemical "helpers" to assist in the delivery of vitamin C through the skin.
The formulations derived from it led to the development of anti aging skin care products, containing vitamin C and products, which contained a combination of vitamin C and pure Retinol (until recently, it has been extremely hard to combine both Retinol and vitamin C together in a stable formulation, as both ingredients are easily oxidized, when exposed to the air, and become inactive). In 1990s this type of skin care was already produced all over the world.
Further on, a great deal of interest in the anti-oxidants has been shown. A lot of studies have been done which show that protecting the skin can delay the onset of aging. The SUVIMAX studies in France showed that the use of anti-oxidants on the skin slows down the aging process. It is also possible to reduce lines and improve skin firmness.
Benefits of anti-oxidants were detected in grape seeds extracts. After that, cosmetic companies started using these benefits in their skin care products. Grape polyphenols are natural compounds derived from green grape seed extract which have been shown to have a powerful anti-oxidant effect. They shield the skin from the aggression of a wide range of free radicals and are known to help maintain the skin's moisture levels.
In the middle of 1990s Estee Lauder has completed research into understanding more about skin cells losing energy. Dr. Maes, Vice-President Research and Development, Estee Lauder Worldwide, explains: "We cannot make the skin look like when it was in youth. Technologies can decrease the lines by 50%, but we will never decrease them by 100%. We have studied skin samples and found that its thickness is already decreasing from the age of 20. In biological terms, if the cells are losing energy they will also lose their ability to protect themselves against the environment."
He compares this loss of energy to that of a battery running low which needs to be recharged. Thus, to slow down aging and protect the skin cells, manufacturers started using anti-oxidants, sunscreens and skin energizing technologies to “recharge” cells. They are described as a next generation skin nourishers that enable skin to tap into a fuel source of bio-available micro-nutrients.
The scientists have studied different types of skin aging and it means that they are capable of developing skin care which will effectively abate aging. It is recognized that 90% of skin damage is caused by external environmental aging. This includes smoking, wind, chemicals, and, most importantly, UV radiation. The level of pollution increases so quickly that skin cells can not develop self-protection mechanisms. Free radicals or oxidants are naturally generated in the body as a reaction to the aggression of external, environmental factors as well as internal factors such as stress and tiredness. A consequence of this aggression is an acceleration of the skin's aging process. Most of skin damage is done in the early years and people do not see the results of this until they are in their forties and fifties.
The reason for this is due to the skin's chronological aging, which we can do nothing about. Internal, chronological aging is largely a consequence of genetics and affects skin all over the body.
Modern scientific research in skin care and the growing knowledge of the skin's physiology mean that it is possible to stop and even repair skin damage which occurs later on in life. Thus, the latest thinking and research is focused on developing skin protection not from a plain Sun Protection Factor but from the cells themselves. The case in point is a new area of cosmetology (allocosmetics) and skin care products of modern generation of late 1990s, which are based on cell extracts that have lately drawn much attention of scientists. Cells can segment themselves and reproduce identical copies, replace old skin cells by new ones of the same type, take part in biochemical skin processes. This is what we call lifetime self-rejuvenation.
The strides made in anti aging technology over the past decade have been astounding and clearly show no signs of abating. We can be certain that there will be many more exciting achievements in anti aging skin care technology to come.

Natural disasters have become quite common in the recent times. The impact of these natural disasters on the earth is ever increasing. The effect of the recent disasters is making the impact of the past ones very tiny. Environmental imbalance is the main reason behind ever increasing ill effects on the environment.
Michigan is the eighth most populous state of US and is surrounded by four great lakes namely Lakes Superior, Michigan, Huron, Erie, and Ontario, plus Lake Saint Clair. Any resident of the state is not more than 140.3 km from the great lakes. Natural disasters in Michigan usually occur in the form of floods because the state is surrounded by four great lakes.

what are the different wireless network technologies available?
A computer with a properly installed wireless network adapter can communicate with another similarly configured computer or other wireless device, such as a printer with a wireless print adapter. Basically there are 3 main types of wireless technology that differ in their functionality:
- Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN)
In a Wireless Local Area Network, a radio communications device labeled as a wireless router that supplies Internet access to computers over air waves. The wireless router is small and lightweight with an antenna attached to it that sends information back and forth to wireless enabled computers. The range of a WLAN can is around 150 to 300 feet depending on the physical environment. Wireless LANs are becoming commonplace in public-access facilities. Locations called hotspots provide wireless routers which can commune with the wireless network card in your portable computer
or handheld device.
To access a wireless LAN at a public place, you might need an account with the provider of the wireless service. Some additional access charges apply in some locations. The range and speed of public-access hotspots will vary according to environmental and other factors.
Here are the components needed for a wireless network:
- Broadband Internet connection (cable or DSL service)
- Broadband Modem
- Wireless Router
- Wireless-Enabled Desktop
- Wireless-Enabled Notebook
- Wireless Personal Area Network (WPAN)
Wireless personal area networks are restricted wireless networks. BluetoothTM and UltraWideBand are the most frequently used types WPAN technologies that wirelessly connect MP3 players, Bluetooth keywords and mice, cellular phones, and more to a computer. A WPAN has a maximum range of about 30 feet. Bluetooth technology is the most popular WPAN networking standard. WPAN devices cannot communicate with WLAN or WWAN devices. The use of WPAN can reduce the number of wires and cords in a work area.
- Mobile Broadband or Wireless Wide Area Network (WWAN)
Wireless Wide Area Networking or Mobile Broadband is achieved through the use of cellular phone signals. Mobile Broadband Networks are typically provided and retained by specific mobile phone (cellular) service providers. Mobile Broadband can provide a way to stay connected even when away from other forms of network access. Connectivity to some wireless Wide Area Networks can be maintained anywhere there is cellular phone service available from the provider.
Additional access charges apply in some locations.

Tips For Dealing With Dyslexia in the Classroom
Educators often become frustrated by the lack of specialized services that are available for students in their classroom that suffer from dyslexia, a learning disability that chiefly affects the sufferers ability to read, write, and spell. Students with this condition often require special tutoring and teaching above and beyond any special education classes that they might attend. Being unable to spell correctly prevents the student from being able to express themselves fully, which can extend across the spectrum and cause long term problems. Children are typically only taught spelling as part of a language arts curriculum in the early grades, and generally only in the perspective of learning to read. Children who suffer from dyslexia, on the other hand, need a much more wide-ranging and broad spelling support that continues well after the time that they learn to read, and even past their tenure in special education classes.
Improving Learning Environment for Teaching Dyslexia
An important component in teaching the dyslexic child includes specialized instruction across the curriculum and throughout many grade levels. Identifying the dyslexic child early on may be fundamental to overcoming the ill effects of the condition. Spelling and phonics instruction must begin in the formative years of elementary school and continue throughout their educational years, particularly in areas of the curriculum where reading is essential to their success. Dyslexic children should always be seated near the teacher's desk and the chalkboard, and should be kept from distractions as much as possible. The dyslexic child has an elevated difficulty focusing on the teacher when there is background noise and other distractions, in a much more pronounced way than the typical student.
Curriculum Needs
For a dyslexic student to succeed, curriculum needs must be given staunch consideration from day one, including:
- Explicit phonics instruction in both reading and spelling lessons. Children who suffer from dyslexia must learn to identify sounds and patterns among letters, especially where reading and spelling are fundamental to mastering a concept.
- Multi-sensory lessons where viable. Incorporating lessons that require the use of multiple senses other than visual cues, including sound and touch, or even smell and taste in more creative lessons.
- Focus on individual sounds and letters in spelling curriculum, mastering one before moving to the next. For example, focus totally on the letter "d" before proceeding to the oftentimes confused "b". Never teach confusing letters or letters with similar lines at the same time.
- Call for parent participation. While having a good rapport with all parents is ideal, the dyslexic child needs the additional support at home in order to be successful. Ask parents to reinforce skills learned at school, and schedule regular progress meetings to compare notes.
All too often, the dyslexic student will encounter classroom difficulty that relates to a lack of confidence that can cause problems in other areas of their studies other than spelling. Paying close attention to the child's ability to spell and helping the child develop good spelling skills will go a long way toward helping the child become successful throughout his entire education. Continuing to focus on spelling is vital to achieving the educational goals of the dyslexic student, even after any special education services that the child receives are considered unnecessary.

Dealing With The Unavoidable Workplace Conflict
Some workplace conflict if only viewed favorably and in a positive manner could be healthy and an opportunity for one’s business and also for each of us to bring about some positive change in our lives! It is just about how we perceive things. Nevertheless, it’s a whole different story when unhealthy conflict raises its ugly head constantly which can create a potential risk to any business and bring about negative effects. These bad effects could generate profound consequences and additional costs to one’s bottom line if not immediately stopped. Conflict is in fact an inescapable aspect of life in business and not all conflict is always bad.
Several individuals will agree that where there are human beings, there will always be conflict. In Australia, and also in most nations where there’s Occupational Health and safety law, it puts a legal obligation (something that is really mandatory) on managers or employers to offer a safe and healthy workplace. You could be held liable and accountable for your employees’ actions if you’ve been discovered not been able to comply with your duties and obligations. So what could your business do—you could handle or cope with workplace conflict and be hands-on by: enforcing a Grievance Course of Action and System, acting immediately if suspecting trouble, initiating employees into the workplace, regular accessible communications with employees, considering intervention, putting an end to procrastination, and taking worthwhile advice.
And some of the usual causes of workplace conflict may consist of: overwork, poor management and leadership, too much undue stress, poor communications, favoritism, idealistic (as opposed to realistic) work expectations, the “mushroom effect”—nobody really knows what is taking place around here, some unavoidable personality differences and clashes (each and every one of us is born differently anyway, so expect some individual differences and conflicts). Unfavorable and unnecessary stress has the capacity to weaken one’s business. There are times that as business owners, one might let referred stress (our very own stress) to be unconsciously passed on the staff. This is more likely to direct to your business undergoing the negative and harmful effects of resistance or hostility, low morale, and potential staff and subordinates might dent the business.
There are way too numerous reasons for personality clashes and conflicts. They occur oftentimes wherein a person in the workplace is unable to get along well with another colleague or co-worker—or merely does not want to. So it is very important that the manager hires the individual who possesses the suitable cultural fit for one’s business. Moreover, the employees love to feel valued and know that you’re very interested in their well being. That’s why communication is the super glue that fastens and fixes relationships and connections together in any business. Low or poor communication is the top rated issue rated by most employees or staff in questionnaires or surveys conducted in various workplaces.
Your business might be undergoing some workplace conflict, but there are positive and useful answers obtainable to your business. Try browsing www.biz-momentum.com since they’ve helped many businesses plagued by potential ruin due to workplace conflict and these days, those businesses are still successful.
Women's Empowerment Tools
If you've ever felt undervalued in the workplace as a woman, you shouldn't. Women are becoming more and more prominent in work environments and even have special skills that can help them succeed even in a male-dominated career. Recognizing the natural self empowering tools for women, that women already possess, can be very powerful.
Women have natural talents, but may feel as though those talents are not relevant to a place of business. This is incorrect. It is true that women, just like men, still need to master practical and technical business skills in order to succeed, but when it comes to climbing the corporate ladder, they have unique skills that organizations value. By simply tapping into these skills, women can empower themselves to obtain anything and everything they want.
Let’s start with communication – a skill that is vital to success. Women are natural communicators. Have you ever noticed how a mother “just knows” how important it is to talk and interact with her children, using appropriate language and phrase-structure that a child can understand. This same skill, slightly adjusted, works perfectly in a business environment. For instance, a woman who is managing other people must know how to communicate with each person individually in a manner that each person can understand.
Helen Fisher, author, The First Sex: The Natural Talents of Women and How They Are Changing the World, refers to this as a flair for language. Fisher describes the increasing need for the ability to communicate with written and spoken words. To quote her, "At talking, women have the edge." Fisher describes how the female gender, even at very young ages "excel at... verbal fluency - rapidly finding appropriate words, phrases or sentences." Fisher writes "Women are, on average, more articulate at saying what they say." Women embracing this knowledge and trusting their natural language talent in communication will find their confidence building.
In terms of teaching or coaching, women also have an advantage. The nurturing characteristics that come more easily to women make it possible for women to help children learn and develop. The right combination of encouragement, discipline, freedom and boundaries will lead to a child whose confidence and abilities are very mature and continue to exceed that of other children. When this type of situation is applied to the business world, a woman can do the same thing for employees.
Once again Helen Fisher's research as presented in The First Sex states, "Women are, on average, more interested in cooperation, harmony, and connections - a network of support." She further writes, "Women characteristically believe everyone can succeed in business; they take a win-win attitude in the office world."
Many women are also skilled at multi-tasking or multi-focusing. Juggling people, reports, deadlines and all the necessary resources become critical to the success of the teams' results.
Helen Fisher references that human's evolution, even back to ancestral times, show a woman had to rear helpless and long-dependent babies under highly dangerous conditions demonstrating the need for multitasking even then. I lover her description: "In order to rear helpless infants, ancestral mothers needed to do a lot of things at the same time. Watch for snakes. Listen for thunder. Taste for poison. Rock the sleepy. Distract the cranky. Instruct the curious. Soothe the fearful. Inspire the tardy. Feed the hungry. Mothers had to do countless daily chores while they stoked the fire, cooked the food and talked to friends."
Of course, not all women have mothering skills and not all women are the same, but all women have the ability to identify the skills they possess and use them for personal and professional empowerment. Women can be just as effective at business leadership as men. If figuring out what makes you a successful woman interests you, why not make a list of all your personal attributes - those natural talents and empower yourself to soar to new heights of success.
Challenges of Leading Groups
Challenges of Leading Groups
Introduction
Global events and interactions affect almost all modern criminal justice organizations whereby they are increasingly facing challenges as a result of the ever changing external and internal environments. The economic and political linkages involving the migration of money, products, and people across national boundaries together with ideas and values have increased the pace of change, ambiguity, uncertainty, and unpredictability in determining and solving disputes that arise as a result of misunderstanding between individuals or countries. For justice and fairness to be attained it is advisable for criminal justice organizations to recruit competent, devoted, ethical, and experienced professionals in dealing with the rising cases of crime and the enforcement of laws that governs our society as well as protecting constitutional privileges and civil liberties of individuals. (Bandura, 1997)
Under this, an example of criminal justice organization is the courts of law where there are charged with the responsibility of applying the existing laws on ruling of many different cases that arise as a result of misunderstanding between individuals or between countries. The culture of any court of law is always to achieve fairness and justice in performing its duties. This is the cornerstone to its existence in that it has the duty of solving disputes fairly and at the same time protecting the rights and liberties of individuals involved. The main characteristic of the court of law is performing its duties fairly without discrimination and favor. It is also composed of competent magistrates who are supposed to carry out their duties of passing judgments without prejudice or malice. The culture of the courts of law can only be achieved by magistrates and other employees of these organizations by following their codes of conduct when administering their duties.
Challenges faced by Criminal Justice Organization
There are many challenges that face criminal justice organizations and in this case particularly the courts of law. The major challenge has always been achieving fairness when passing judgments and especially on thorny subjects that may contradict the way of doing things that is the culture in this organization. Many human rights activists have increasingly questioned the competence of judges and magistrates when handling cases of public concern. There have been consistent arguments that the magistrates and the judges have been influenced by key or prominent individuals like politicians while performing their duties thus being incompetent and giving vague rulings which have been questioned by many. (Carrasco, 1999)
The other challenge of criminal justice organizations and especially the courts is in the wake of terrorism there has been growing concern on how they handle the cases related to terrorism. Due to influence by some powerful individuals in various governments, the magistrates and judges have been viewed to be ineffective and inefficient in solving cases related to terrorism. For example, Islamic followers have been arguing that they are being discriminated and they have constantly been linked with terror which is not entirely true. Since the September 11th attack there has been a growing concern on how the judicial systems handle the cases of terrorism. Such confusions arise because of the existing structures that deal with terrorism and review of such regulations should be enforced in order to avoid such loopholes. It is viewed that the culture of the courts of law does not therefore support any changes in the judicial systems.
The other challenge faced by the criminal justice organization and especially the courts of law is the matter of how to transform juvenile offenders from further participation in activities that are against the rule of law. The juveniles especially the youths of between thirteen and seventeen years have increasingly engaged themselves in questionable activities which are deemed to be retrogressive and may lead to them being professional criminals in future. Such activities include misuse of drug, rape cases, immature marriages and even robbery. Parents cannot be entirely blamed for such conducts and the courts of law have the responsibility to come up with better and acceptable modes of punishing the young ones in the general public. The courts therefore have not been able to attain their culture since unfairness for example holding the young ones in custody for long or freeing them because of lack of viable structures to deal with such cases has been witnessed. This practice has not supported fairness and justice that may foster any change since the courts have ambiguous laws governing juvenile delinquency in the society.
The courts too are widely condemned for using what is viewed to be common punishment that does not hold some entities responsible for their conducts and thus the process of administering justice is viewed to be illogical. For example witnesses have continually been exposed to danger of revenge because the courts do not protect them from the aftermath of the events unfolding from the courts. Also in some instances the courts through the prosecutors are reported to be harassing witnesses when hearing cases and disputes which has led to many individuals fearing to testify in the cases that they have facts and evident. The matter of providing for the punishment has been a growing concern and there has been questions regarding to what kind of punishment should be subjected to criminal offenders. The Courts of law have been viewed to applying laws that do not cope with the modern world for example, the murderers, robbers, and the rapists should not be left to enjoy their freedom but instead they should be sentenced to death. The court face the challenge of coming up with sensible charges that the criminal offenders have to be subjected to when they are found guilty. (Gobert, 1994)
Recommendations for the courts effectiveness
The role of courts should shift from only passing fair judgments to acting as change agents to criminal offenders in the society. The culture of doing things in the courts should be emphasized and particularly the courts should act independently and avoid manipulation by powerful individuals who may influence their decisions. The criminal justice organizations and especially the courts have the task of defending members of the general public through the structures of passing fair judgments as well as protecting the rights and liberties of the individuals.
Because of the increased population there is an increase rates of criminal activities in crime all over the world and the criminal justice organizations including the courts have to protect the whole society by ensuring that they cope with any changes brought about by change of culture in the criminal justice organizations. Due to the increase in population the courts have not performed there duties perfectly for example these institutions of justice have been characterized by long delays brought about by the high number of cases that cannot be solved within a short time. (Bandura, 1997) From the latest survey, reports suggest that the ratio of criminal justice professionals to members of the public is wanting and thus they cannot handle the cases that are experienced in the daily course of life. There is greater need for improvement especially ion setting up many courts and embarking on recruiting competent, willing, and qualified magistrates, judges, and other employees required in these organizations.
The governments too should not be left behind in reforming these organizations of criminal justice. The respective states should therefore through there bodies of amending and making laws create laws that will enhance changes and a favorable environment of solving such challenges. The dimension of laxity portrayed by the governments for example, in opening rehabilitation systems e.g. that of the juveniles that can help reduce the increasing rate of crime in the world should not be encouraged completely. Research from recent studies indicates that, the relevant systems of justice should embark upon deficiencies in the application of the existing law to make sure that witnesses are fully protected prior to, in, and after the trials.
Conclusion:
Over the past years crime has increased due to various reasons that include poverty, misuse of drugs, and fighting for power among others. Many countries have come up with laws that enable the passing of judgments without harsh conditionality.
The challenges facing criminal justice organizations in the world are numerous and we cannot discuss all in this paper. Understanding the culture of any criminal justice organization is very prudent in order to attain goals and be effective and efficient in there operational activities. It s therefore practical to build viable culture in these organizations which will support any innovations and change that may be required in order to achieve the set objectives, for example being fair in giving ruling and protecting rights and liberties of individuals.

Hybrid Cars Could Help In Conserving Energy And Reducing Pollution
With the gas prices being so high, more and more people are becoming aware of how valuable energy is in our daily lives. Hybrid cars show how energy can be conserved and pollution reduced. The cleanest non hybrid car can put about 90 percent smog pollution in the air versus the hybrid.
The Honda insight was the first hybrid on the US market in 1999. It is electrically powered and can go 61 mpg on city roads and 70mpg on the highway. Then in 2000, Toyota brought the Prius to the market, it goes 52 mpg in the city and around 45 mpg on the highway. The Honda Civic hybrid came out in 2002 with 46mpg on city roads and about 51mpg on the highway. Since then there have been other hybrid models such as, the Chevy Silverado, the Dodge Ram pickup and the Ford Escape SUV.
Hybrids are more efficient for a number of reasons. For one, the battery of a hybrid lasts longer. It is equipped with two energy supplies- the gas and electricity. The car is made of lighter materials, that means less energy is used. The engine in a non-hybrid is heavier so it requires more power to accelerate and to go up an incline. And with a hybrid there are fewer cylinders.
Hybrids have less internal machinery. The energy and time needed to move a cylinder up and down in a non hybrid is greater. To start the car, the non hybrid engine needs more power because it has more cylinders. In addition, each cylinder uses more fuel for cylindrical displacement.
There are some tips to keep in mind when driving a hybrid to maximize energy and mileage productivity.
Drive slowly-Aerodynamic drag increases if you drive fast. If you slow down you will save energy.
Drive at a constant speed- Increasing your spend and then slowing down wastes fuel.
Try not to break suddenly-The motor in a hybrid is like a generator. Energy is lost if you stop abruptly. Try to give you car some recovery time.

3 reasons why is conserving energy important for the United States of America
1. Independent from foreign oil
The question is why is conserving energy important? First lets talk about crude oil. United States have about 30 year reserves of oil. The world demand for oil is getting greater. China and India economy is growing and more people are using cars so oil companies is having an hard time to keep up with oil demands. The U.S right now is the number 1 oil consumption country. When oil supply is lowering the price of crude oil goes up, and high priced crude oil is terrible for our economy.
2. Save our environment and health
We need to start conserving our fossil fuel because it is very harsh to our environment. Fossil fuel is fuel that goes through a combustion process. The burning produces waste products that goes into the environment. The gases are sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, carbon dioxide and other harsh waste compounds. These pollutants are very bad for man king. For instance nitrogen oxide irritates the lungs. Particulate materials contribute to respiratory sickness and cardiac problems, and maybe cause cancer.
3. Save Money
By conserving energy you will also be saving money. We can use mother nature to supply us with energy. Use solar panels to catch the rays of the sun to give you energy to power your home or business. We can also use geothermal heating and cooling to save us thousands each year. Geothermal heating and cooling system uses the water that is beneath the earth and compress it into hot or cold water to regulate the building temperature. There are little disadvantages in using alternative energy the start up cost our always more than conventional energy but in the long run you will be saving thousands.
Now why is conserving energy important? So we can be independent from foreign oil that will bring our economy down. Save our environment so it can be suitable to live in. Look up what crude oil did to Kuwait land. Keep us healthy and not consuming these bad pollutants in our body, and to save money by using the great alternative energy technology to produce energy. We can be responsible people by conserving energy by transferring to alternative energy.

Remodeling Your Bathroom for Under $2,000
Bathrooms are generally the same, there are larger ones and small compact bathrooms, but all of them have the same basic pieces. Some might have additions and exotic features but if you start at the basic principle of what a bathroom is, you realize that it starts with some common components.
Most bathrooms have three or four pieces to them. This means the room consists of a tub, toilet, and sink. Or a four piece is a tub, toilet, shower, and sink. Either way when you're renovating a bathroom; there is a good chance you can save one or two of the items -- like the toilet or the tub. By saving these items you obviously save money, but at the same time, you are not sacrificing the look or quality of your bathroom. The reason is that most toilets do not go out of style or become worn out; instead a porcelain toilet can last for decades. (One note on toilets is that the newer toilets are built to save water, hence this saves on your water bill and helps the environment). As for the tub, most bathroom tubs can be cleaned and made to look new. This may take some scrubbing and handwork, but you will be saving hundreds of dollars. So check you toilet and tub and consider saving both of these features.
Next is the bathroom vanity. This item can be costly, especially if you go to an over priced big box store like a Lowe's or Home Depot. These stores will sell you a low quality vanity and you will be receiving a low grade item. Note, that it may look good, but these items are made of particle board and this is something you want to avoid. A particle board is prone to absorbing water and then breaking down; so avoid any products that contain particle board. One exception - you can use particle board for a book shelf or TV stand, but not in the kitchen or bathroom. What is the alternative? RTA bathroom vanities that are made of paneled wood sides (not RTA made from particle board) is the best way to gain a quality bathroom vanity.
