THE INCREASED SCOURGE OF SEXUAL ASSAULT

What is sexual assault? 

Sexual assault is not limited to rape but includes other forms of sex contact involving being, saying violent behavior, force, or intimidation.

How does it act on persons in general? 

The saddest thing is that it does not just act on you while you are being made wrong use of but it is always with you and troubles you for a long time and changes your out-look on living. It also changes the lives of your loved ones. Of course, the one attacked person is not responsible for the of sex Assault. The one making attack without cause takes that responsibility.

What can you do? 

Do not have nothing to do with your feelings. If a place or person makes you have a feeling of uncomfortable or restless let go of it, gives opinion a police divisions of an organization in North Carolina, U.S.A. do not let anyone make come round you to keep in place if your natural impulses are saying to you other-wise. Act with belief in oneself; be put at point at which rays come together. of sex ones living off others Hunt for the not conscious of and open to attack. So walk with belief in oneself and keep in place ready. have a reaction quickly. cry out. Escape or fight back using the part of surprise. And, if possible, run to a safe place and telephone the police.

CYBER CRIME
What is it? cybercrime says something about to crime guided on-line. It includes tax and well-being agent seeming to be what it is not, credit card false behavior, and the non delivery of (gets) something for money. It also includes tricks, such as wrong, false money put into business and on-line auctions.

How does it act on persons in general? Cybercrime costs the victims and society as a complete work of million's of dollars. take into account an example. Sandra received a computer post that she taken to be true was from her Bank questioning her to bring to the current state her on-line banking details. minutes after sending her personal detailed account, she was in fear to see that $4,000 (U.S.) had been got moved from one position to another from her account to an out-of-country Bank. Sandra quickly discovered that she had been scammed.

What can you do? 

Be wary! Do not be fooled by professional-looking net structure building lands, and keep in mind that right money business institutions will not question you to computer post highly to be kept secret news given. Before giving money for or giving on-line, make certain the company's Reputation. Anyone without experience puts belief in every word, but the wise and sharp one gives thought to as his steps, says old sayings 14:15. And be careful when trading with companies gave position of in out-of-country lands. If problems get up, it can be harder to get separated them. get at the details of a company and its general lines. question yourself:


What is the company's physical house? is the telephone number right? Will my thing got for money have to do with kept secret gives idea of price? When will my order be gave birth? tin it be returned or given back? Be having feeling that something is wrong if an offer looks too good to be true.

The greedy and those who need something for nothing are first in rating persons marked for on-line persons taking property. The food for fishing may cover great-sized money for least work, a something given for a time or credit card even though you may have a poor credit rating, or greatly sized comes back on low-danger money put into business.

Take your time in valuing the being within the law of any an outer covering offer, says the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC). The higher the promised come back, the higher the danger. do not let one starting businesses force you into making oneself responsible to an outer covering before you are certain its within the law.

DISEASE CONTROL

Every day, your body wages war against diseases that are quiet and unseen but possibly deadly. Foreign ones making attack, such as bacteria, a cause of diseases, and ones living off others, suggest violent behavior your being healthy. 

You are not likely to be having knowledge of those invasions because you are free from danger system sends back or makes waste most of the ones making attack before the attack of symptoms. Some-times, however, the damaging germs gives you upper hand. If so, you may need so much cushion, your things used to keep from attack of disease with medical activity and other treatments.

Various causes of disease, including journey, small sized organisms, condition of being poor, and wrongly got ready food should be noted. For thousands of years, people knew almost nothing about the dangers of small sized or other small damaging organisms. however, when 19th-century men of science made likely the connection between germs and disease, we became better got ready to put forward arguments for ourselves. Medical persons making observations have since took away or greatly made lower, less the sign of danger of some infectious diseases, including smallpox 5 and polio. lately, however, others, such as yellow overheated body and dengue, have made a come-back. Why? take into account these causes that produce an effect:

Every year, millions of people journey around the earth, often transporting disease-causing representatives. in harmony with to a thing in the newspaper for special things medical infectious diseases, almost all of the given by touch virulent disease can be put out on top by between nations journeyer. Some bacteria have undergone growth power of stopping to antibiotics. The earth is heading in the direction of a post-antibiotic time, in which common disease. . . can once again put to death, states the World Health Organization. Civil troubled feeling and condition of being poor often get in the way of government efforts to control the put out on top of disease. Many people existence without useful knowledge of how to put a stop to disease.

/>Despite these troubling trends, there is much you can do to keep safe (out of danger) yourself and your family. The supporters will make clear to that, even if you full of force in a getting greater, stronger, more complete land, simple and working well designs may be within your reach.

Most microbes do not cause disease. This number, order, group, line of a, an, the gives one's mind to an idea on microorganisms 9 and other infective agents that suggest violent behavior your being healthy.

WHEN CHURCHES RESUMED IN RUSSIA

The keep in place of churches in as in under representative committees of the workers coming together (Russia) in a history go to the time of nazi Germany gone into Russia in June 1941, in no doubt has it that the Russians when living with 'representative committees of the workers' in government had chiefly done away the Russian generally taken as true Church. But after the Nazi attack and take by force, the Russians when living with 'representative committees of the workers' in government began to change their attitude toward religion. What gave a word (to actor) this?

Richard Overy, person doing teaching of-the-day history at Kings college, London, explained in his book Russias War Blood upon the Snow: Metropolitan sergei [Sergius], head of the Church, appealed to the true to on the very day of the German attack and take by force to do everything to take about coming out on top. He put into print no fewer than twenty-three letters in the next 2 years, to visiting his great numbers to fight for the without a high being state they lived in. So, as Overy gone on, Stalin let religion to good growth again.

In 1943, Stalin finally agreed to take in the generally taken as true Church by giving (person) a position as Sergius as its new Chief family man. The Church authorities gave an answer by getting lifted up, higher money from the true to very great a Soviet metal cover used by army column, Overy noted. men of religion and bishops put before their congregations to make observation the belief, Gods and Stalins.

Making, be moving in this stage in time of Russian history, the Russian with strong feeling of religion learner of letters sergei ivanenko wrote: The public position printing of the Russian generally taken as true Church, The newspaper for special things of the Moscow Patriarchate, praised Stalin as the greatest first and person doing teaching of all times and nations, sent by God to but for the nation from cruel rule, landowners, and property owners. It called upon persons having a belief in to give their last drop of blood in keeping safe the Ussr from its persons hated and to give their all to make system of society with no private property.


Even after World War Ii ended in 1945, the generally taken as true Church remained useful to the persons without belief in private property. The Soviet coming together: The fifty years, selected by Harrison salisbury let be seen how this was so: With the wars end, church leaders fell in with the Cold War demands of Stalins out-of-country agreement.

/>The nearby book The military blade and the safety skin gives a detailed account of how church leaders given out Soviet interests. It explains that Chief family man Alexis I, who had came after, took the place of Sergius as Chief family man in 1945, joined the World Peace body of persons to give opinion, the Soviet front organization started in 1949. The book also notes that he and Metropolitan Nikolai were highly valued by the kgb [the Soviet State Security Committee] as agents of power over.

Remarkably, in 1955, Chief family man Alexis I made public: The Russian generally taken as true Church supports the totally peaceful out-of-country general road-map of our government, not because the Church said to be so exists without state of being free, but because Soviet agreement is just and is like to the Christian high purposes which the Church gives a talk (in church).

In January 22, 2000, question under discussion of The Guardian 1 of London, England, person not in agreement having the same views man of religion Georgi Edelshtein is quoted as saying: All the bishops were carefully picked so that they would work with the as in under representative committees of the workers government. All were kgb representatives. It is well experienced that Chief family man alexy was got newcomers by the kgb under the code-name of Drozdov. today, they are keeping safe the same political work that they had 20 or 30 years earlier.

HUMAN PARTS - GREAT EMBODIMENT

google.com, pub-7820813838927254, DIRECT, f08c47fec0942fa0 The human body systems are so unique and outstandingly very versatile in sensitivity as such cannot be overemphasized. Special parts like the: Eye, Ear, the Brain, Hand among others are parts that we cannot do without. They actually have distinguished great functions that one could not imagine. 

Animal part does not have half sensitivity to what is found in human ability. We so much stand erect posing a go stand resulting to a greater versatility, which not only expands the horizon of our vision  but in addition make us have free arms and hands for a lot of things to be used for various activities. One keep imagining what it would have been if human beings came without hand, meaning that all our doing would have being short to a hurt.

We should also consider our high intellectual, thinking of how sophisticated sensory system are embedded, of which I will focus on. The following are the parts that human would have do without viz: the ears, the eyes, hands and also our sensitive class of brain.

HAND
A beautifully created great shape working as an instrument for a lot jobs for a general human activities. We carry out much things with our gifted hands considering also the sensitive found feel of touch and others. A touch tells one the nature of the object even in the dark; whether snake, ant , foil, paper, skin, metal, water, or wood and or hairlike objects. Factually, our hands works more like instruments as we hold thing and also act with them.

The reason we have so sensitive part called hand is:

1. The total bones found in the both hand is calculated to be upto 50 bones. This is to say that if all the bone of the body are put together, it is 1/4 of them, and at that they are so flexible.

2. The hands are controlled by two powerful sets called: 1) the extensors (2) the flexors. These ensures the operation of the arms and that of the fingers through sensor called tendons. How bulky and unwieldy the hand would be if these muscles were located in it! The third set, much smaller, which does lie within the hand, gives the fingers precision of movement.

3. This part of human body has opposable thumb mounted on a saddle joint, an ingenious configuration of two saddle-shaped surfaces at right angles to each other. This joint, along with the associated muscles and other tissues, gives the thumb amazing flexibility and strength.4. Your fingers are, in effect, living sensors, the fingertips having about 2,500 receptors in just one sixth of a square inch (1 sq cm). Moreover, the receptors are varied, each kind having its own function, enabling you to feel texture, temperature, wetness, vibration, pressure, and pain. As a result, the human finger is the most sensitive touch sensor known.

THE EAR
Consider also that human’s ears and brain is a strong and formidable one. Our hearing enables us to determine loudness, pitch, and tone and to approximate the direction and distance of a sound source. The frequency range of a healthy human ear is roughly 20 to 20,000 hertz, or cycles of sound oscillation per second. The most sensitive region is in the 1,000 to 5,000 hertz range. Moreover, we may be able to detect a change of just one hertz from, say, 440 hertz to 441 hertz.

Factually, a healthy ear is so sensitive that it can detect sounds when the vibration, or to-and-fro movement, of the air at the eardrum is less than the diameter of an atom!
According to a university course on hearing, “the human hearing system is close to the theoretical physical limits of sensitivity. . . . There would be little point in being much more sensitive to sound, as all we would hear would be a ‘hiss,’” the result of the random movement of the atoms and molecules that make up the air.

Eardrum vibrations are amplified mechanically by lever action and are transferred to the inner ear by means of the ossicles, tiny bones known as the hammer, the anvil, and the stapes. But what if your ears are suddenly struck by a deafening sound? In that event, they have a built-in protective mechanism in the form of muscle action that adjusts the ossicles to reduce the force of the sound. However, the ears are not equipped to deal with prolonged loud noise. Such exposure can permanently damage the hearing. So take good care of this “wonderfully made” gift from your Creator.


The work of an auditory system is to ensure that your body to detect sounds sources. The secret lies in a number of factors, including the shell-like shape of the outer ear, its grooves, the separation of the two ears, and some computational brilliance on the part of your brain. Thus, if the intensity of a sound fades just slightly from ear to ear or if the sound reaches one ear just 30 millionths of a second before it reaches the other, your brain will promptly point your eyes toward the sound source.

Imagine if you had to make all those computations consciously! To be sure, you would have to know how to use very advanced mathematics—and with lightning speed! If an engineer were to design a “hearing” system that came even remotely close to the one your Creator gave you, he would receive many accolades. Yet, how often do you hear people give due credit to God for his awesome works?

THE EYE
It is estimated that people who can see well gain approximately 80 percent of their information about the world through their eyes. In combination with our brain, our eyes enable us to see in full color, to track moving objects and images smoothly, to recognize patterns and shapes, and to see in three dimensions. Furthermore, we can see in varying degrees of light.

The latter involves a number of complementary mechanisms. For example, the pupil can expand from 0.06 inch to 0.3 inch (1.5 mm to 8 mm) in diameter, resulting in a possible 30-fold increase in the amount of light entering the eye. The light then passes through the lens, which focuses it onto the retina, concentrating the light energy by a factor of 100,000 times. So never look directly at the sun with the naked eye!

The retina, in turn, houses two types of photoreceptors, cones (approximately 6 million), which give us color vision and high resolution, and rods (120-140 million), which are more than a thousand times as sensitive as the cones and help us to see in dim light. Indeed, under optimal conditions, a rod can detect a single photon, or elementary particle of light!

Another adaptive mechanism involves retinal neurons linked to the cones and rods. These neurons adapt “in seconds and can improve night vision by a factor of 10 or more,” says the American Optometric Association. “Neural adaptation is rather like having low-speed and high-speed film simultaneously available in your camera.”

Engineers often design cameras, scanners, and computers, along with compatible software. But the degree of integration and the level of sophistication attained are vastly inferior to those of our sensory system. Ask yourself, ‘Is it reasonable to attribute our vastly superior living sensory system to blind chance, as evolutionists do?’ An ancient servant of God named Job knew little about the human body compared with what we know today. Even so, he felt impelled to say to God: “Your own hands have shaped me.”

THE BRAIN
The efficacies in functionality of brain baffle human. The brain decodes the streams of signals pouring in through the nerves from the sense organs. Moreover, it links these signals with details stored in its memory. Thus, a certain smell may immediately trigger the brain to retrieve a long-forgotten experience or event. And if you see just a small part of something familiar, the tip of your cat’s tail, for example, your brain will fill in the missing details so that you know your cat is nearby.

/>Emphatically your brain was not preprogrammed with images of cats, just as it was not preprogrammed with the smell of a rose or the sound of running water or the feel of fur. Your brain learned these associations. The experiences of people who were born blind but have been given the ability to see, perhaps through surgery, make this evident. Their brain had to learn to interpret the flood of visual signals now flowing to it. How do such people fare?

They soon report the ability to detect color, motion, and simple forms. But after that, progress varies. Children, especially the very young, continue to learn quite well. But that is not the case with adults. Even their ability to recognize faces remains highly impaired. And, tragically, a common feature with “cured” adults “is initial euphoria followed by disappointment and disorientation with the restored vision, often leading to severe depression,” says the Koch Laboratory at the California Institute of Technology.

In the following article, we will examine some of our inner qualities, including courage and love. Have you wondered why humans alone have the potential to display such qualities? To be sure, the existence of such uniquely human traits has presented a major obstacle to people who wish to prove that we are merely highly evolved animals.

How does your brain feel, hear, see, and smell? Scientists are baffled. “There is no hint in your brain as to how you see the words you are now reading,” said scientist Gerald L. Schroeder.

He also wrote: “Revelation of the previously unimagined intricate workings of the brain has challenged the simplistic theory of life’s random evolution.” He continued: “Had Darwin known of the wisdom hidden within life, I have confidence that he would have proposed a very different theory.”

PAINS IN EXCITEMENTS

It most times cause me hotness of body while watching acrobatic display. High risked enjoyments that thrills peoples imaginations as render applauds to the displayer in fear.

One day standing close a railway, a speedy train made my mind skip even when I found it interest, as the breeze almost pulled off my shirt which took me seconds to gather myself after it passed.

A day came when I decided to exorcize myselve a little though swimming in a river, so I went to my Village river, in attempt to test my swimming capability, I swam forward and deep into the river to get some quantities of sharp sand from the dept of the river, at first it was easy going and sweet, only to encounter difficulties on getting out of the river basin.

Diving into water from dangerously high cliffs,  can also free one’s heart a little of thoughts and stress effects for a few seconds. Usually I enjoyed it, but sometimes I was scared.

It should be noted that many young people get a excited by testing their skill limits​ sometimes in very risky ways. Are you tempted to join in? If so, this article can help you.

WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW
This enjoyment could also be addicted that at the end one could endlessly sick for an end. It might give you a short-term high but leave you craving greater excitement. Marco, who like Leon went into train tunnels, says: “It was a vicious circle. I was happy for a moment. But then I needed yet another thrill.”

The thrill one gets made many want to do it again this just to impress people to admire me, but at the end one is found in a hospital’s bed.

The influence of play mates could lure one to adventure into some silly joke ignoring ones common sense. My friend testified when it was tough and dreadful, at a time my brother could not come down from the tree he climbed, he exclaimed;  “My friends pressured me to free-climb a tall building, saying: ‘Go on. You can do it.’ I felt very insecure. I was trembling as I pulled myself up the wall.” When confronted he said, I just did what everybody else did.”

The Internet too is used by some to create a form of peer pressure by praising thrill-seekers and downplaying the risks. In fact, some dares posted on social media go viral, giving thrill-seekers recognition and attention.

For example, some popular videos depict parkour​, an activity that involves traversing obstacles (such as walls, houses, and stairs) by running, climbing, or jumping rapidly and efficiently without any safety equipment. The follow could endlessly come up (1) The risks are minimal. (2) Everyone is doing it. The result: You may  be tempted to try out activities that involve life-threatening risks.

THE WAY FORWARD
Their should be carefulness all the time. Choose friends who show respect for life. True friends will not encourage you to take risks or try to talk you into doing something you feel regret about. “Good companions make one to make better choices about activities I wanted to participate in. When my friends changed, so did my life.”​

Ask yourself, ‘Does this activity amount to little more than a gamble with death or serious injury?’

Enjoy your skills without risking your life. Part of growing up is “learning how to establish one’s own principles and boundaries,” says the book Adolescent Risk Behaviors. You can test your limits in a safe environment, using appropriate safety equipment and precautions.


Always endeavour to build genuine self-respect. People will respect you for how skillfully you master real-life challenges, not for what you dare to do for a thrill.  “My river experience was just a was just enough lesson  in my life that was full of self-destructive behavior. It would have been better if I had learned to say no.

At the end remember that recreation should not be deadly but a total enjoyment.​

WHEN YOUR PARENTS ARE NO MORE...
If in tender age and one’s parents go beyond for a permanent sleep or rest with Lord, quite painful and challenging envisage the person all through. That reminds me of what happened so many years ago to a friend and neighbour at a time when the parents had a fatal accident and died instantly, while coming to Omoku from Port Harcourt. They became Orphans to many who cared for an arms-length to them. Six other siblings followed him as Michael Ordu wallowed in bitterness, thinking, and agony all the time, of a truth, they went through hell. in terms of feeding, other mean of upkeep and parental protection.

LIFE MUST CONTINUE
The pains of demise come in different forms as indeed grieve in accordance with different persons, thoughts and level of maturity.  The way of expressing sorrow can never be the same with others since death does not ring bell before it happens to one. Bear this in mind that one should never in anything unduly express your sorrow and grieve even continually.

To your shock, such pain as this can be dangerous to the bereaved. Michael, mentioned that he in order to console his little siblings, he kept quite forgetting about cry so as to stop theirs as that could lessen their emotions. As it stands, Michael continued in his effort to suppress painful feelings, and that’s not healthy.”


Medical advice suggested that feelings denied or concealed won’t remain till eternity, according to Queens' Health Magazine, else there would be complication in health of the bereaved. “They will return when you least expect in the form of emotional flare-ups or physical ailments.” Effort to suppress agony as it relates to death a closed relative also leads to alcoholism or drugs abuse, all done in an effort to comb the pain.

Languishing in pain of the sort, goes with confusion emotionally. Some people feel anger at the person who died, feeling that the person abandoned them and the thought that they will never see again. A lot as God why for the occurrence, instead of preventing the occurrence. Many who grieve feel guilt for things they did or said to the person, since there is now no way to make amends.

In fact, grieving can be a complex process. How can you get relief and be helped to move forward?

LEAVE BEHIND ALL THAT HAS HAPPENED.
You should try to talk to some one and they rather talk to themselves. You might be inclined to isolate yourself during this difficult time. But pouring out your feelings to a family member or a friend will help you deal with your emotions and keep this tragedy from overwhelming you.

Keep a journal. Write about the parent you lost. For example, what is your most cherished memory of that person? Write about his or her commendable qualities. Which ones would you like to imitate in your life?

Any one who is surrendered with negative thoughts, definitely forwards the pain and agony of the demise. Some thoughts could wrong things you have done to such dead soul. You kept regretting of them all. Suggestively, if one cannot stop thinking about some harsh word he said before he or she passed away, rite down what you feel and why. Some had argument with the fellow before he or she died. Sometimes is a if they killed the person. thereby feeling guilty.

Next, challenge the reasonableness of your guilt. You cannot blame yourself for not knowing that there would never be an opportunity to apologize, so you may think. To suggest that one must never say or do anything that might call for a future apology is simply not realistic.

Take life easy and also good care of yourself. Make sure you rest as well, exercise yourself, and get proper nutrition. If you do not feel like eating, have a number of healthful snacks throughout the day instead of full meals, at least until your appetite returns to normal. Do not soothe your grief with junk food or alcohol; they will only make things worse.

BE SAFETY CONSCIOUS

One thing for sure you should be able to remember is to be immunized against disaster. Note it that early preparation is vital and your most important key to survival. But what does preparation involve?

Prepare mentally. Acknowledge the fact that disasters happen and that you and your loved ones are potentially at risk. It is too late to prepare after disaster strikes.

Learn about disasters that can happen in your area. Know where shelters are. Consider whether the construction of your home and its location are as safe as possible. Remove fire hazards. Install smoke detectors, and change their batteries at least once a year, if not more often.

Prepare emergency supplies. Power, water, phone, and transportation services can fail. If you own a car, try to keep the fuel tank at least half full, and always have food, water, and an emergency kit in your home.?See the box “ Do You Have What You Need?”

Preparation is your most important key to survival

Have access to the phone numbers of friends, both near and far.

Make and rehearse an escape plan. Know the nearest exits in your building, as well as the emergency plan of your children’s school. Set up family meeting places? Such as a school or a library? one nearby and another outside your neighborhood. Authorities recommend that you practice walking with your family to those meeting points.

    Plan to help others, including the elderly and the infirm.

HOW DO YOU AVOID DISEASE AND DANGER?

HOW DO YOU AVOID DISEASE AND DANGER?

In order to avoid disease and danger, consider a lot measures are to put in place, viz:

1) Stay with friends, if possible, rather than in a camp.

 2) Keep your living space sanitary.

 3) Use personal protective equipment when cleaning up debris. If possible, wear gloves, sturdy shoes, a hard hat, and a dust mask. Beware of electrical wires and hidden embers.
4) Keep your daily routine as normal as possible. Your children need to see that you are calm and hopeful. Do school lessons, play, and worship as a family. Do not dwell on news coverage of the tragedy, and do not take out your anxiety or frustration on family members. Accept help, and help others.

5) After the disaster, keep your routine as normal as possible


    It should be know to your disaster cause of loss of life and properties that immeasurable, fir a fact this important area should be noticed. Acknowledge that disasters cause loss. Government and other relief efforts focus on helping people to survive, not on replacing everything that was lost. To survive, we need clean water, food, clothing, and shelter from the weather.​

    Calm down yourself and reduce a potential emotional injury. This often surfaces after the initial shock has passed. Symptoms include anxiety, depression, and mood swings, as well as difficulty thinking, working, and sleeping. Talk to caring friends.


Although many may survived the fire in his workplace, many of his acquaintances did not. He received assistance from Christian elders and mental-health professionals. “They assured me that my grief was part of a natural healing process and that it would pass,” Joshua says. “After six months, the nightmares lessened. Other symptoms have lasted longer.”

Disasters assault our very sense of justice. In response, some people mistakenly blame God. Many, like Joshua, experience “survivor’s guilt.” “I still wonder if I could have saved more people,” he says. “I am comforted by my belief that God will soon bring complete justice to the earth and will right all wrongs. In the meantime, I cherish each day of life and do what I reasonably can to preserve it.”​

DO THE NEEDFUL AND QUICKLY TOO

“ Usually panic is associated with fire outbreak as many could hold themselves, neither do they compose and or react positively and decisively to the benefit of all victims of the outbreak. Most delay and get confused, to the extend that a commonly and regularly used door and locks could no longer be opened easily. While some react to put off the fire at the same time save lives and properties, some turned off electrical appliances including computers. Some resort to the use throwing of water, in cans or from various containers. One man said, ‘Maybe we should just wait.’” Despite the hesitancy of others, while exclaim loudly against any delay. There would a lot of agitations in minds such as “We need to get out of here now!” “If anyone falls, pick him up and keep moving,” “We’re all going to make it!” gingering all to make.

    In case of fire outbreak endeavour to be close to the floor, and move quickly to the nearest exit. Most times difficulties of view are posed by serious smoke making it hard to see, and at the same time the smoke is been inhaled causing choke in the chest and a possible collapse. Leave behind personal items. Seconds can make the difference between life and death.

    when it come to the disaster cause be an earthquake. Get under sturdy furniture or next to an inside wall. Expect aftershocks, and get outside and away from buildings as soon as you can. Trained rescuers may not arrive for hours, so try to rescue others if you can.

    In some countries that are close to the sure, suffer a lot as it concerns rush of water on the coasts. If the water suddenly rushes away from the shore, move quickly to higher ground. Expect more and larger waves.

    In a tornado or a hurricane. Go to a storm shelter without delay.

    In a flood. Stay out of flooded buildings. Avoid wading in or driving through water. Floodwater can contain sewage and conceal dangers, including debris, open manholes, and downed power lines.

    Did you know? Two feet [0.6 m] of moving water can carry a car away. Most deaths in a flood result when people try to drive through moving water.

    If the authorities order evacuation, leave immediately! Let friends know where you are, or they may risk their lives looking for you.

    If authorities order evacuation, leave immediately!

    Did you know? Text messaging may be more reliable than telephone voice service.

    If the authorities direct residents to remain at home or shelter in place, stay inside. In case of an outdoor chemical, biological, or nuclear accident or attack, stay indoors, turn off ventilation, and seal all doors and windows. In a nuclear event, go to the lowest internal part of your building to reduce exposure to radiation. Listen to local TV or radio news. Stay indoors until authorities announce that the threat has passed.
