The Department of Administrative Reforms & Public Grievances, Government of India, organized the 2nd 'District Collectors Conference', which took place on the 6th & 7th of September in New Delhi. Over 30 district collectors participated, making presentations on best practices to overcome challenges faced in the sectors of rural development, education, urban development, law & order, and disaster management.
The Planning Commission is providing these presentations for the public to see examples of the good work being done by young IAS officers in the field, and to promote cross-learning and innovation.
FLOOD DISASTERS PART 7. LEARNING FROM GLOBAL DISASTER LABORATORIES
FLOOD DISASTERS PART 7. LEARNING FROM GLOBAL DISASTER LABORATORIESProfessor Eric K. Noji, M.D., MPH, DTMH(Lon), FRCP(UK)hon
Flooding occurs somewhere in the world approximately 10,000 times every day as the consequences of a locale having more water than the local water cycle can process within its physical limits. Floods occur as the result of: extreme levels of , precipitation in thunderstorms, tropical storms, typhoons, hurricanes, and cyclones; in storm surges, and in tsunami wave run up. What have we learned from recent floods to increase survivability and decrease socioeconomic losses? First of all, the timing of anticipatory actions is vital. People who know: 1) what to expect (e.g., inundation from extreme precipitation, storm surge, tsunami wave run up), 2) where and when impacts will happen, and 3) what they should (and should not) do to prepare for them will survive. Secondly, timely, realistic disaster scenarios save lives. The people who have timely, realistic, advance information that facilitates reduction of vulnerabilities, and hence the risks will survive. Thirdly, Emergency preparedness and response saves lives. The timing of emergency response operations, especially the search and rescue operations that are limited to “the golden 48 hours" will increase the likelihood of survival. The local community’s capacity for emergency health care (i,e., coping with damaged hospitals and medical facilities, lack of clean drinking water, food, and medicine to treat water borne diseases, and high levels of morbidity and mortality) is vital for survival. The local community’s capacity for emergency health care (i,e., coping with damaged hospitals and medical facilities, lack of clean drinking water, food, and medicine, and high levels of morbidity and mortality) is vital for survival. And finally, engineered infrastructure save lives. Infrastructure engineered to withstand the risks from floods (e.g., damage, failure, and loss of function), is vital for survival. We continue to operate with a flawed premise: knowledge from flood disasters, which occur every day somewhere in the world in association with rain, severe windstorms, and tsunamis, is enough to make any nation adopt and implement policies to facilitate disaster resilience. Unfortunately, the fact of the matter is, global construction in the flood plain of rivers and along coastal areas is extensive; the associated political controversy causes most nations to be slow to adopt and implement policies for flood disaster resilience.

Part 1 Global Earthquake Preparedness And Emergency Response in the United S...Professor Eric K. Noji, M.D., MPH, DTMH(Lon), FRCP(UK)hon
Preparedness is a state of readiness on individual, urban, sub-regional, and national scales that is sufficient to keep the expected and unexpected effects of an earthquake from causing a disaster. Emergency Response consists of all the scripted and unscripted heroic and historic responses during the “race against time” after a quake to save lives and protect property. Key elements of preparedness: 1) know your tectonic plates and seismicity; 2) know your fault zones; 3) know your potential disaster agents; 4) know your vulnerabilities. State-of-the-art preparedness planning integrates all four factors. Prepareadness and emergency response increase as the capability to anticipate what will happen increases. Key elements of emergency response. HISTORIC RESPONSES: The professional and non-professional responders will be making history for at least forty-eight hours (a “place holder” for the intense period of search and rescue operations) and thirty days (a “place holder” for the intense time of the “no room for error” decisions) that must be made. Every time an earthquake disaster occurs, we have new knowledge to add to our “books of knowledge” on preparedness and emergency response.

Introduction
Many have been interested in Tom Selleck health. not only because of his enduring presence on screen but also because of the challenges. and lifestyle choices he has faced and made over the years. This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen
Workout Routine
Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.
Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles.
Importance of Flexibility and Mobility
In recent years, Selleck has emphasized the importance of flexibility and mobility in his fitness regimen. Understanding the natural decline in muscle mass and joint flexibility with age. he includes stretching and yoga in his routine. These practices help prevent injuries, improve posture, and maintain mobilit
