PHS Hurricane Floyd OC
Hurricane Floyd formed in early September 1999 and caused extensive damage along the U.S. East Coast from Florida to Maine over the course of two weeks, with winds up to 250 kph and 500mm of rain in North Carolina alone resulting in billions in damage and disrupting the lives of millions through evacuations, power outages, and property destruction. Emergency responders evacuated over 4 million people and provided assistance with temporary housing, food and water, and guidance on disaster preparedness and recovery.
PHS Hurricane Floyd TR
Hurricane Floyd was a powerful Category 4 hurricane in 1999 that caused extensive damage and flooding. It formed off the coast of Africa and tracked towards the east coast of the United States. Floyd struck The Bahamas at peak intensity before weakening to a Category 2 storm when it made landfall in North Carolina. The hurricane produced torrential rainfall that caused widespread flooding across eastern North Carolina over several weeks, with flood levels exceeding 500-year levels in many river basins. Hurricane Floyd was responsible for 57 deaths and $4.5 billion in damage, primarily in North Carolina.

NOTABLE SEVERE WINDSTORM EVENTS AND DISASTERS OF 2014. November 30th marked the official end of a quiet 2014 Atlantic Basin hurricane season. There were eight named storms, six of which were hurricanes, with only two (Edouard and Gonzalo) becoming major storms. The Atlantic basin, which includes the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean, produced the fewest tropical cyclones and fewest named storms since 1997. November 30th marked the official end of a very active 2014 Eastern Pacific hurricane season– the most active season since 1992.There were 20 named storms, the most in 22 years, peaking 2-3 years after El Niño . Of those named storms, 14 became hurricanes, with nine of them developing into major hurricanes.In general, meteorologists believe that El Niño conditions suppress hurricane activity in the Atlantic and increase it in the Pacific. A new study suggests that there may be a delayed reaction, with peak hurricane activity in the northeastern Pacific happening two or three years after an El Niño peak. Presentation courtesy of Dr Walter Hays, Global Alliance for Disaster ReductionPHS Hurricane Floyd PS
Hurricane Floyd caused significant damage along the Eastern Seaboard of the United States in September 1999. It resulted in 79 deaths and over 100,000 people seeking shelter in 9 affected states from Florida to Maine. North Carolina was hit hardest with 47 deaths, bridges and over 50,000 homes being damaged by winds up to 250kph and 500mm of rain that flooded 30,000 square km. The Federal Emergency Management Agency provided disaster relief including shelter, supply kits and assistance boarding up windows for over 100,000 registered victims.

The peoples budget summary task sheet to go with aricle (1)
The People's Budget of 1909 proposed several new taxes on the wealthy to fund social welfare programs. This upset the Conservative peers in the House of Lords, who rejected the budget, causing a constitutional crisis. As a result, the Parliament Act of 1911 curtailed the powers of the Lords and allowed the budget to pass, weakening the power of hereditary peers in Britain's system of government going forward.

Lightning Talk #9: How UX and Data Storytelling Can Shape Policy by Mika Aldaba
How can we take UX and Data Storytelling out of the tech context and use them to change the way government behaves?
Showcasing the truth is the highest goal of data storytelling. Because the design of a chart can affect the interpretation of data in a major way, one must wield visual tools with care and deliberation. Using quantitative facts to evoke an emotional response is best achieved with the combination of UX and data storytelling.
SEO: Getting Personal
The document discusses how personalization and dynamic content are becoming increasingly important on websites. It notes that 52% of marketers see content personalization as critical and 75% of consumers like it when brands personalize their content. However, personalization can create issues for search engine optimization as dynamic URLs and content are more difficult for search engines to index than static pages. The document provides tips for SEOs to help address these personalization and SEO challenges, such as using static URLs when possible and submitting accurate sitemaps.
Succession “Losers”: What Happens to Executives Passed Over for the CEO Job?
Succession “Losers”: What Happens to Executives Passed Over for the CEO Job? Stanford GSB Corporate Governance Research Initiative
This document summarizes a study of CEO succession events among the largest 100 U.S. corporations between 2005-2015. The study analyzed executives who were passed over for the CEO role ("succession losers") and their subsequent careers. It found that 74% of passed over executives left their companies, with 30% eventually becoming CEOs elsewhere. However, companies led by succession losers saw average stock price declines of 13% over 3 years, compared to gains for companies whose CEO selections remained unchanged. The findings suggest that boards generally identify the most qualified CEO candidates, though differences between internal and external hires complicate comparisons.Viewers also liked (7)

South korea
South Korea occupies the southern portion of the Korean Peninsula. It has mountainous and coastal regions and over 20 national parks. The Korean War broke out in 1950 when North Korea invaded South Korea, leaving millions dead. South Korea has since transformed into a developed country under authoritarian rule and later democratic governments. It has a very dense population that is over 99% ethnically Korean. The capital Seoul has over 9 million residents and South Korea has an aging population that could decline in coming decades.

A tsunami is a series of waves that are brought about by an earthquake in the sea or any other volcanic eruption. Tsunamis have happened since the creation of the world. Major Tsunamis are caused by earthquakes that happen after the collision of tectonic plates (Samuels). Some plates are too hard to be pushed when a collision occurs they release energy causing seismic waves. These sudden seismic waves lead to an earth shake. Tsunamis can be very dangerous to the dwellers of the seashore (Taylor). Tsunamis that have happened have been recorded to cause deaths and loss of property. For instance, the largest Tsunami to occur was in Sumatra in 2004 which had a magnitude of 9.1 and left over 230,000 people dead. The Tsunami that happened in 2011 in Japan was devastating and resulted in loss of many lives. Property of approximately 300billion dollars was damaged by the earthquake and tsunami. People drowned and most of them died. Many pictures were taken to keep a memory of what happened. This Tsunami was very large and impacted a lot to the Japanese government.
Many publications have been made about the historic 2011 earthquake, tsunami and subsequent nuclear accident that occurred in Japan. The magnitude of the earthquake was 8.9. Authors and photographers have published many articles with photographs of the tragedy, commonly referred to as "3/11". The earthquake hit the Tohoku region of Japan (BBC news). It swept away the entire town, killed thousands of dwellers and triggered a nuclear meltdown at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant. Many damages were mostly along the coastline. The photo shows a wave that resulted from the tsunami earthquake as it approached Miyako City from the Heigawi estuary in Iwate Prefecture. The picture was taken on March 11, 2011, published in the Mainichi Shimbun. The photo shows the wave sweeping everything on the coastline including vehicles and houses. In the ocean, ships are seen as they are carried away, and others stack in the water. Some part of the city is submerged by the waters. The wave looks very strong and fast approaching, carrying and destroying everything on its way. This part was one of the most affected parts by the tragedy. Much of the town city was destroyed. The photo is just representation of how the deadly waves approached the cities in Japan destroying people and properties.
The earthquake in Tohoku 2011, struck the offshore of Japan beside a subduction zone where two tectonic plates were colliding. A subduction zone is where one plate slides below the other into the mantle which is the hotter layer below the crust. A recent study found out that, the Pacific plate which is in the east of Japan slides beneath the Eurasian plate (Samuels). On 11th March, 2011 an earthquake started at around 2.46pm on Friday local time. The earthquake was centered on the seafloor 72 kilometers in the East of Tohoku. It was felt in a depth of 24 kil ...
Northkorea
North Korea has been divided since the Korean War in the 1950s, with poor living conditions in the north under the authoritarian rule of the Kim family. The document outlines the history of the division of Korea after World War 2 and the Korean War, which has left North Korea isolated. It describes the difficult conditions North Koreans face today under Kim Jong-Il's rule and subsequent famine, with over 60% of children malnourished. It also notes North Korea's continued development of nuclear weapons despite international condemnation.
The First Decade Of The 21st Century
The document provides a summary of major events that occurred between 2000 and 2009, including:
1) The September 11th terrorist attacks in 2001 where hijacked planes crashed into the World Trade Center towers in New York City.
2) The US invasion of Afghanistan in 2001 and Iraq in 2003 in response to the 9/11 attacks and Iraq's alleged weapons of mass destruction.
3) Natural disasters like the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami and Hurricane Katrina in 2005 that caused widespread damage and loss of life.
4) The rise of new technologies and media like YouTube, which was acquired by Google in 2006.

Disasters can occur naturally through events like earthquakes, floods, and volcanoes, or be man-made such as industrial accidents, explosions, and terrorist attacks. Both types of disasters can cause significant damage, destruction, loss of life, and harm to the economy and people's livelihoods. Developing countries and areas that are more populated or vulnerable tend to suffer worse impacts from disasters. Disasters can also trigger secondary or cascading disasters, like an earthquake triggering a tsunami, worsening the damage. Poor infrastructure, development, and emergency response can exacerbate the impacts of disasters. The 2011 earthquake and tsunami in Japan caused massive physical and economic damage costing hundreds of billions of dollars as well as many deaths and

Disasters can occur naturally through events like earthquakes, floods, and volcanoes, or be man-made such as industrial accidents, oil spills, and terrorist attacks. Both types of disasters can cause significant damage, destruction, loss of life, and harm to the economy and people's livelihoods. Developing countries often suffer the worst effects when disasters strike due to factors like poor infrastructure and lack of resources to prevent or respond to disasters. The 2011 earthquake and tsunami in Japan caused massive physical and economic damage estimated at $250-309 billion, as well over 27,000 deaths or missing persons. The disaster was compounded by problems at Fukushima nuclear power plants, which led to evacuations and power short
Japan
Japan was hit by a 9.0 magnitude earthquake on March 11, 2011 near the east coast of Honshu, triggering a massive tsunami. The earthquake and tsunami caused widespread damage, killing over 15,000 people and crippling infrastructure. It also caused nuclear meltdowns at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant, resulting in radiation leaks. The disaster caused major economic losses estimated at over $300 billion and had long lasting social and environmental impacts across Japan.

flood - a destructive calamity
- A natural disaster occurred in the Indian state of Uttarakhand in June 2013 caused by heavy rainfall and flooding that resulted in widespread damage.
- The floods were particularly devastating, estimated to have caused over 10,000 deaths, and were described as the worst natural disaster to ever strike the state.
- The flooding occurred due to both natural causes like heavy rainfall but also human factors like unchecked development and tourism that disrupted the environment.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.
