...Introduction . what are the potential health issues associated with cellular telephone use? Whether it’s the increased use of cell phones by children, or the overall increase in cell phone use by adults, human exposure to electromagnetic radiation is happening in ways never dreamed of before. Very young children are using them, teenagers live on them—and some even sleep with them on their pillows, as cell phones are often used as alarm clocks. What do these exposures consist of and what do they mean for human health? Whether cell phone use affects the human nervous system and reproduction, causes DNA damage and behavioral changes, or creates addictive behavior, cell phones are now ubiquitous in our lives. Cell phone technology has changed quickly over time and continues to develop, which means that human exposures also change over time. This report explores what we know about cell phone use, exposures, and human health. Impact of mobile phone technology in environment: The Cell Phone Problem Electromagnetic Radiation _ All cell phones emit a type of radiation called an electromagnetic field (EMF), composed of waves of electric and magnetic energy moving together through space. Different types of electromagnetic energy are categorized by their wavelengths and frequencies and comprise the electromagnetic “spectrum” (see next page). _ Different radiation frequencies are used by different...

Each year, thousands of children are killed or injured because of the car accidents and safety seats help to protect children (Car Seats); however, the child safety seats did not appear until 1962. There were two inventors who invented the child safety seats: one was Briton Jean Ames, who invented the featured a Y-strap, which was similar than the modern one. The other designer was American Len Rivkin, who invented the seat surrounded by the metal frame (A Graphic History).

...total deaths in the US in 2013, 1.3% were related to firearms. Many children have injured themselves or others with a gun. The United States has 88.8 guns per 100 people, or about 270,000,000 guns. This is the highest total per capita number in the world. 22% of Americans own one or more guns, 35% of whom are men and 12% are women. Some believe that there should be stronger gun control while others believe that it’s their right to bear arms under the second amendment of the US Constitution. To bring gun violence under control there should be stronger gun regulations to limit access and possession of guns by ordinary Americans. Stronger gun control will remove guns from the hands of people with mental...

Do you find that it is almost impossible to sit still? Do you get easily distracted by noises and forget what you were doing? Allen a first grade student at Triton Elementary School does not like school. He cannot sit in his seat for more than five minutes. He is always interrupting class with strange noises, getting out of his seat, throwing objects, sharpening his pencil and touching people around him. Allen has been noted by his teachers to blurt out answers to questions before they have been completed. He intrudes on other children’s activities, but seems to have adequate social skills. He has a history of not completing activities, being disorganized, easily distracted and has trouble paying attention to tasks or play activities.

...annoyed, whether it is related to driving or not, can have the same negative impact as an intense cell phone conversations or the consumption of alcoholic dinks” (Davis). Allstate is a well-respected auto insurance company, which thrives upon accident forgiveness and keeping their customers protected through safety campaigns. In July, Allstate launched its “Mayhem” series of commercial advertisements. In these commercials, Mayhem is portrayed as a physical person causing unavoidable trouble to automotive owners, such as sidewalk distractions, extreme weather conditions, young pets, and teenage destruction. Mayhem overall advertises that turmoil is everywhere and, without raising rates, Allstate will protect their drivers from these unavoidable dangers when other insurance companies will not. Allstate effectively advertises its services by using a credible actor, who humorously addresses emotional parental topics, and entertainingly exaggerating the teenage girl stereotype in a familiar setting. In this specific commercial, Mayhem is portraying an exaggerated, distracted, and emotional teenager who is driving through a crowded parking lot and unknowingly sideswipes a parked car. The intended target audience is adults, both with and without children, who are seeking affordable and reliable car insurance. This commercial appeals to the audience’s emotion by portraying the stereotype of a typical teenage girl, who is paying more attention to her social dilemma with a friend...

...thing as saying that all women are better drivers than men, though many people, by the look of some insurance company advertisements, look to think that is exactly what it means. In fact it simply shows that, on average, a woman between the ages of 20 and 65 who drives a car will have had fewer accidents than a man of the same age, driving the same car. The data is drawn almost exclusively from insurance company statistics. It may not, however, be accurate, as few people bother to alert insures if they clip the mirror or scratch the paint. Here is another example of distorting statistics: Toddlers Who Attend Pre-school Exhibit Aggressive Behavior: A study was conducted on four-year-olds, comparing those who went to preschool and socialized with other children, with those that stayed at home with their mothers. It measured aggressive behavior such as stealing toys, pushing other children and starting fights. It showed that children who went to pre-school were three times more likely to be aggressive than those who stayed at home with their mothers. The statistics were well documented and were, technically, accurate. The report used these statistics to persuade parents to keep their children at home until...

...EXECUTIVE SUMMARY-Most of us consider child labor exploitative and therefore, socially unacceptable. The study of child labor is, however, important not only for social reasons but also for economic ones. The impact of child labor on the economy works through its debilitating effect on education which is important component of human capital. The participation of children in work in home and outside is often considered to be one of the important reasons for low school enrolment in Bangladesh. An important effect of child labor is on demographic development in a country. It is generally found that poor countries with high rates of population growth have higher incidence of child work. In this study, the actual child laborers in Bangladesh are 3.2 million (ILO, report/ BBS, 2006) which age is 5-17years. About 421000 are domestic workers. The children are bound to do hazardous toils because of poverty. More than 1.3 million children work in hazardous situation. The Bangladeshi children deprived every winding of social and international aspects such as in trafficking, industrial works, household labors, early marriage, biri factory, forcedly prostitution, begging, less wages, helping in the vehicle etc. though the government of Bangladesh has taken many initiatives to prevent child labor and violation of child rights. But the achievement is not satisfactory, in this connection much phenomena are concerned; poverty is one of them. So, government, NGOs and public should take proper step...

...Gun Control is when you keep firearms plus guns away from people. Many people think that gun control is right because they think keeping people away from guns will reduce the amount of deaths each year. They also think that guns cause many of the deaths that had been committed each year. Also when ever people hear the word gun, the thoughts are of violence and negativity. Many people, myself included think gun control is wrong because we know that it is not necessary, since we know that guns were not involved in many of the deaths caused each year. While many other people disagree and think it is good because of the safety for people. In this essay I will tell you why gun control is unnecessary and why there shouldn?t be any gun control at all. There have been many gun control laws established throughout the U.S., but they vary from state to state. For example, in Colorado you can purchase any type of gun: handgun, machine gun, shotgun, rifle, automatic rifle, etc. at the age of 18, while in other places you would need a hunting license.1 I think this is unfair because when I?m at the age of 18 I would want to buy a gun, but I can?t because I?m living in California and another 18 year old could in Colorado. Also, another example is that in some states, they allow citizens to carry concealed weapons, while in other states citizens can?t. I don?t think this is fair at all because I think they should make laws that suits the whole U.S., and not make different laws in different...

...A concussion is a form of brain trauma that is caused by a high level of impact that causes the brain to shake within the skull. The brain is protected by layers of membrane, like the dura and cerebrospinal fluid within the skull. This typically insulates the brain from most injuries, however, these layers of cushioning can’t protect the brain from all forms of injuries. Cerebrospinal fluid that surrounds the brain can only shelter the brain from light trauma, like a small fall. When a person experiences a bigger accident, like a car crash, the brain will hit the cavity of the brain causing blood vessels to tear. Blood starts to buildup between the brain and the dura, forming a blood clot. In response, physical signs like swelling will occur, which inhibits the brain to function properly because it is injured. The victim will start to experience symptoms like a speech impediment or loss of consciousness. A concussion is a form of traumatic brain injury and causes 30% of all injury deaths. Any...

...causes, and effects of the concern, as well as implications for educators. ( 5 pts) While most substance abuse is on the decline, it still poses a problem. Alcohol, Cigarette and marijuana use are most common. In one study in 1991, 51% of high school students drank at least once a week. Other studies have shown that one in four high school students smoke cigarettes and one in five have smoked marijuana. There are numerous and varying causes of substance abuse in children and adolescents, including inadequate parental supervision, peer pressure, and poor self-esteem. It can cause poor school performance, long-term health problems, and of course, accidents. For teachers, this means being very aware of any change in student behavior that may be attributed to substance abuse. It means being vigilant about any drug use or selling that may be occurring in the school. It could (and should) also mean incorporating education about the dangers of substance abuse in the classroom. Design a classroom that is appropriate for children and adolescents, keeping their physical development in mind. What kinds of school and classroom practices would also meet the physical developmental needs of children and adolescents? How did your own school perform in this regard? A classroom with age-appropriate demonstrations of lessons, readily displayed and explained, would be a priority. I would also include group work and discussion to underscore central themes and ideas. Physical development...

...Ashraf Shaikh English 711 Essay Assignment #3 Elizabeth Spencer 22nd April 2015 Bilingual Education or Not? The debate on whether United States should adopt the bilingual academic program whereby children speaking other languages are taught in two languages, in English and in a second, native language (Hayakawa, 1991). There have been studies and researches indicating the benefits of the bilingual academic program, particularly to the students – such as high academic scores, mental flexibility, improved personal identity etc. At the same time, there is evidence showing a number of downsides to the programs – such as double expense to the government, politicized aspects etc. The aim of this paper is to examine different aspects of the argument on the subject of bilingual programs in schools, and whether United States should make English as its official language. It also demonstrates the argumentative ability regarding the controversial issue of bilingual academic program in the United States. Honestly, I feel that the need to make English the official language of the country is preposterous. Only, because it practically is the main language of the country just unofficially. From a general point of view, the definition of bilingualism is whereby a person possesses the ability of easily and naturally speaking in two languages, without experiencing any problem whatsoever. However, from the context of United States of America, bilingualism has a controversial definition (Fallows...
