I'm usually a very optimistic fellow and I am somewhat concerned about something that has been cropping up in my mind on an almost daily basis for the past two weeks. It is a vile thought to be sure, but it can't be denied that homo sapiens' future on our wondrous planet will come to a terrible end if he doesn't find an alternative for using carbon based fuels for his energy requirements. Not only is he dependent upon carbon based fuels but within the next 50 years, he will find himself competing with the rest of the world's population for an ever shrinking supply of fossil fuel. The only way that this can be avoided is if the number of people on earth were radically reduced.

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) needs all forklift operators to go through official training and procure qualification to ensure that practically all forklift operators truly understand the value of safer forklift operations. First step towards understanding any agricultural system is the comprehension of relationships between the system and numerous physical, chemical and biological factors influencing it. Any decision regarding such systems requires analytical exploration of the involved data. The exploration task is to be supported by an efficient data storage and retrieval mechanism. In this paper we have presented the case of an Agri data warehouse for this purpose. We have briefly discussed the process we adopted for establishing the data warehouse encompassing pest, pesticide and metrological data. We have also shown how implementing an OLAP tool on top of the Agri data warehouse resulted in interesting findings from a decision support point of view. Here's the real deal, if you're looking to buy a commercial building, it would be in your best interests not to buy one that wasn't sprinkled. If you do, you will be severely limiting the potential population of tenants who have the ability to rent your building, and setting yourself up for a big cost in the future to upgrade to sprinklers.
