It was then important to see the degree at which technology and training played a role in combating each fire. 1.2.4.Rationale of the Study What is that can be gained from this study? The reasoning behind such a study is born out of a need to provide better training for fire fighters so that fire management systems will improve and reduce the amount of loss due to the fire. By studying

The labs are established in homes, backyards, stores, apartments, hotel rooms, covered boats and even trunk homes. The police departments and the concerned authorities do invade on intelligence information, several of these clandestine drug labs but the worrying this is the

That increase in value is typically nonlinear, where some additions yield more than proportionate values to the organization (McCluskey and Korobow, 2009). Some of the key characteristics of social software applications
