The Senior Community Service Employment Program (SCSEP) is a community service and work-based job training program for older Americans. Authorized by the Older Americans Act, the program provides training for low-income, unemployed seniors. Participants also have access to employment assistance through American Job Centers. SCSEP participants gain work experience in a variety of community service activities at non-profit and public facilities, including schools, hospitals, day-care centers, and senior centers.
Lightning and Thunder. Lightning is the spark caused when electricity that has built up in a thunderhead discharges. One theory is that air in motion rubs particles of ice and rain moving downward against particles moving upward. As the particles rub together they become charged with static electricity.
The causes of ignition can be split into two groups, 'natural' and 'human influence'. Lightning strikes are the main way bushfires are started naturally. There are, on average, more bushfires initiated due to lightning strikes than any other individual cause, accounting for approximately 26 percent of all bushfires.The vast majority of bushfires, however, are generated by the actions or influences of humans.evere bushfires may burn all the vegetation in a particular area, while more moderate fires will, generally, cause less damage to the natural surroundings. The most obvious result of fire is the loss of plant and animal life. When an area is burned out, vegetation is destroyed as it was used by the fire as fuel.
