Case Study: Mount Sainai

The case of Mt. Everest focuses on two commercial expeditions, Adventure Consultants and Mountain Madness, and the tragic event on May 10, 1996. These two commercial expeditions were lead by Rob Hall and Scott Fischer, and were consisted of 20 members. Both leaders were experienced climbers, but due to several factors, the expedition resulted into five deaths including Hall and Fischer. The event has thought managers to evaluate the importance of leadership together with its internal and external factors that managers should consider to survive in the high risk business world.

Imagine a single event that can kill 57 people and 7000 deer and elk. Snap trees like a toothpick, and turn the sky grey for 15 days. Now, stop imagining, Mount St. Helens, in the Cascade Range of southwestern Washington State, erupted. On May 18th,1980. According to (Campbell 371), “At least $1 billion in economic damage was reported”. The eruption of Mount St. Helens took many lives, and devastated America. Mount St. Helens destroyed more than 230 square miles of ancient forest.

Growing up by Mount Newton I had never heard the First Nation History to the mountain. The story of Mount Newton is that an elder gathered the community together to tell them that they would no longer be safe in their homeland because the tides were rising. He warned them that they had to temporarily move up to the top of the Mount Newton to avoid the high tide. The community listen to the elder and gathered up their canoes and belonging and headed to the summit. As the sea waters began to rise up higher than the top of Mount Newton the community members had to tie a rope between their canoes and an arbutus tree and float above the land. The First Nation’s were floating in their canoes when a raven arrived to tell them the flood would soon be over. The raven traditionally in

Mt St Helens (or the Fuji-san of America) is known for the May 18th, 1980 eruption which destroyed the whole north side of the volcano in just a few minutes within a 6 mile radius. Mount St Helens is named by George Vancouver after a British Diplomat nicknamed Baron St Helens. Mt St Helens is located in Yakima, Washington State, United States, North America on the North American tectonic plate. (Which is a continental plate) Yakima, Washington is almost right in the middle of the state, but Washington borders British Columbia and Alberta, Canada and Idaho and Oregon, United States, and of course, the Pacific Ocean.

On August 30, the miners began their assault on Blair Mountain. Defensive formations blocked the miners along on the upper slopes of the ridge, with particular concentrations at the gaps of Mill Creek, Crooked Creek, Beech Creek and Blair Mountain. Here the defensive force dug trenches, chopped down trees, blocked roads, built breastworks and placed machine guns. Most of the fighting between the two groups took place along the fifteen-mile ridgeline, which reflected the miners' use of natural pathways up and over the ridge to breach Chafin's line.

The first sign of Mt. St. Helen exploding was a landslide starting at the rim of the summit crater. In 15 seconds, the north side of Mt. St. Helen was making its way down the side of the volcano. After the entire north side had collapsed superheated gasses and lava were released in a massive lateral explosion. This abrupt release of pressure created a nuees arfentes, “which is (in a volcanic eruption) a swiftly flowing, dense cloud of hot gases, ashes, and lava fragments.”1. The nuees arfentes wiped everything within 8 miles almost instantly. The shockwave rolled over the forest for 19 more miles forcing almost all of the centuries old trees to fall towards the north. After those 27 miles the trees remained upright but were burnt to death.

2 Mount Fuji otherwise known as Fuji-san is a volcano in Japan located just 100km southwest of Tokyo. Mount Fuji is the tallest mountain in Japan, towering in at 3,776m high; Mount Fuji is also the most active volcano in Japan, on average having an eruption every 50 years on average after 761 CE. This geological feature has historically affected nature and humanity as well as several similarities with other geographical features like Mount Kilimanjaro. Mount Kilimanjaro and Mount Fuji have many similarities. First, and most obvious, both are volcanos though Mount Kilimanjaro is dormant and has not had an eruption since 200,000 BCE.

The United States is one of the most volcanically rich countries in the world, with 169 active and non-active volcanoes.

In 2001 the Mount Etna eruption had cost the lives of thousands of people. Just near the boarders of Sicily, Italy the Mount Etna volcano reigns as the most active volcano in Europe. Due to the many tectonic movements which were stressing out the top layer of crust, which is present on the Earth, the Mount Etna volcano was born.

Several methods such as surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy have been used to treat cancers. The cancer patients who are not helped

Cancer is deadly, and people should do everything in their power to help find a cure. There is not a single person on this earth that has not been affected by cancer. Ghandi said, ‘be the change you want to see in your world.” Everyone should choose to “be the change” and choose to be a hero, even if it’s for someone you do not know.

Raising awareness is a step in the right direction to escalating advocacy and support for childhood cancer research (acco.org 1). One nationwide project that brings in the most financial aid for visitors and patients is St. Jude’s Children's Research Hospital (StJude.org 1). The mission of St. Jude is "to advance cures and the means of prevention, for pediatric catastrophic diseases through research and treatment" (StJude.org 1). That being said, the support "helps ensure that St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital will continue its lifesaving mission of finding cures and saving children” (StJudes.org 1). Few people realize the dire situation patients and families are in when they are deciding to not

On the 15th June of 1991, the second largest volcanic eruption of the twentieth century took place on the island of Luzon in the Philippines, 90 km northwest of the capital city Manila. It was also, by far, the largest eruption to affect a densely populated area. Mount Pinatubo, a stratovolcano, is part of a chain of volcanoes along the Luzon arc on the west coast (refer map). The arc of volcanoes is due to the subduction of the Manila trench to the west. The mountain has a very huge eruptive history. It was known to be thermally active and had been explored as possible geothermal energy resource by the Philippine National Oil Company. Mount Pinatubo is among the highest peaks in west-central Luzon. Its
