I wish to be apart of the National Junior Honors Society because I have always been a determined and hardworking person and being accepted would continue my journey of greatness. In all the activities I have participated in, I don’t ever do it for acknowledgement or respect from others. I do it for my enjoyment and success.

Moreover, Gooden (1994) describes apnea as an essential element to the diving reflex; it ensures not only the prevention of water inhalation, but also acts as an energy-saving device through decreasing nerve stimulation to the diaphragm and intercostals. Therefore, heart rate will be monitored under both experimental conditions and compared to the resting rate and apneic-resting rate. As a profound autonomic phenomenon, further establishment of the diving reflex in humans will shed light on the preservation of the reflex and its role in the survival during ‘near-drowning’ experiences. Only by examining the physiological response in humans can we appreciate the evolutionary significance of this innate neural circuitry.

Strokes are the 5th leading cause of death in the US, with one person dying every 4 minutes as a result. For African Americans, stoke is the 3rd leading cause of death.(http://www.cdc.gov/stroke/facts.htm) It is estimated that About 795,000 people have a stroke each year; about one every 40 seconds - there are many medical conditions that can cause a stroke and it is estimated that 8 out of 10 strokes can be prevented. However, there are some things that cannot be controlled when you are predisposed to

The change to engineered lumber also means less wood to burn resulting structure collapse much sooner, risking the lives of unaware firefighters. In addition to building techniques, improved technologies have also given rise to many engineered materials that replace traditional materials found in home furnishings such as cotton and wool. Today, homes are constructed and filled with furnishings that have a petroleum base such as plastics and polycarbonates. These engineered materials burn many times hotter and faster than traditional building materials or what is considered legacy furnishings. In an experiment conducted at the NIST laboratory, two same size rooms, filled with matching furnishings. One room was filled with modern home furnishings while the second room was filled with furnishings made of cotton, wool, and solid lumber. Both rooms were ignited simultaneously, the modern room burned rapidly and flashed over in approximately eight minutes whereas the legacy room took twenty minutes to reach flashover. When we consider the length of time to call 911, take the call, dispatch units, drive to the scene, tag a hydrant and pull a line most likely takes longer than eight minutes, the timing until flashover is critical for victims and firefighters. Additionally, there is a significant difference in temperatures generated between the modern and legacy rooms. The legacy room high temperature reached approximately four hundred degrees before

“What are the chances that I will be able to swim without pain in 3 days?”

Central Idea: Swimming has a long and rich history that dates back way before our generations and is not always as beneficial as we may think.

The reason or reasons African Americans are more likely to drown than White Americans is unclear. However, swimming in the African American community could be uncommon due to a discriminatory history, false stereotypes, and a lack of solutions to this problem in the

Various liabilities can arise while manufacturing and selling fireworks. Potential personal liabilities can also arise if a customer is injured while using the fireworks and can often be devastating to the owner of a business, especially if the owner is not protected by an appropriate business structure/entity (Rogers, 2012). Hence, in order to expand the business, one of the best precautions would be to change the business from a sole proprietorship to a Limited Liability Company (LLC) (Miller, 2015). Moreover, while transitioning into a larger business, the company would have to hire additional employees or independent contractors so as to keep up with an increase in demand for the products, which leads to the necessity of having a valid contract in place to ensure that every transaction and business dealing is carried out legally (Miller, 2015). Hence, the purpose of this paper will be to provide advice to Acme Fireworks’ owner as the manager on different issues ranging from common law and UCC requirements of business contracts, the essential elements of a contract, personal potential liability in case of injury, the different types of employment and the most appropriate business structure for the company.

Point 3 – Stress is a leading cause for bad decisions, and swimming is an easy method for relieving stress.

Support 2: Open Swimming- Open swimming like at sea, lake or river can increase the chances of drowning because the water currents are not stable like in pools. They are more dynamic and can pull you along with it. Aquatic animals like Jelly fishes, sharks, crabs, crocodiles, alligator, etc. are other threats as they can harm you physically. You can also injure yourself while diving into shallow water. But these effects can be stopped by swimming at a public pool and most have swim equipment such as pull buoys, kick boards, and fins to help increase your performance.

Lifeguard classes were 2 days that consisted of CPR training, swimming laps, and learning rescues. When we first began, there were three of us sitting at a table on the pool deck with an outdated rolling TV. I was handed a 100-page lifeguarding manual my eyes bulged out of my head, the butterflies in my stomach multiplied. Looking through the book, watching rescues and talking through every question I had calmed my nerves. But the statistics of drowning still haunted my mind, 360,000 people died from drowning in 2015 (WHO). All though at the YMCA in Red Oak hasn’t had a drowning,

According to Baker, O'Neill, Ginsburg & Li (1992), drowning rates are reported to be higher in rural areas as compared to urban or sub-urban areas and rural areas suffer more because of the lack of medical care and emergency treatment. It has been reported that 60 to 90% of child drownings of less than 5 year old occurs in residential swimming pool (Baker et.al, 1992). Wintermute & Present (1992) reported that two-third’s of the drownings occurs in children home swimming pool and another’s third’s occur in neighbour’s swimming pool. Moreover, it was also reported the child is supervised by their parents for less than 5 minutes. In order to make
