The town of Shinnston, West Virginia is a former coal town located in Harrison County, near the West Fork River. In 1778 Levi Shinn constructed his log home along what is now Route 19, today it is the oldest standing structure in North Central West Virginia (Wikipedia, 2016). The Shinnston Historical Association maintains it and it is open for tours by the general public. In 1815, the town was laid out with three streets, running parallel with the river, and with four crossing streets running at right angles to them. The town was incorporated in 1852 as Shinn's Town by an act of the Virginia legislature, as West Virginia did not yet exist as an independent state. In Shinnstons’ early years, it saw the development of mercantile interests, wagon…

The City of Kelsey, “a great place to grow.” M. Kelsey founded the City of Kelsey in 1932. M Kelsey had the vision to preserve the natural resources of the land and maintain a “close-knit” community. This city is like any other city, with businesses, schools, citizens, government, recreation, parks, transportation, and issues-all of which I will discuss within this paper (Apollo Group, Inc, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2008 ).…

Anxiety is define as a “vague uneasy feeling of discomfort or dread accompanied by an automatic response; the source is often nonspecific or unknown to the individual; a feeling of apprehension caused by anticipation of danger, it is a potential signal that warning of impending danger and enables the individual to take measures to deal with treat” (Taber’s, 1997). Anxiety disorders are classified as disorders such as panic disorders, agoraphobias, phobias, extreme avoidance of feared objects associated to distress or impairments. B. F. Skinner (1974) talking about this conditions state “It is often said that there is an intrapsychic life of the mind, totally independent of the physical world, in which memories evoke memories, ideas suggest ideas, and so on. Here are few examples of the intrapsychic life of motivation and emotion: Feelings of frustration produce a sense of powerlessness, or impotence, which in turn leads to apathy or to feelings of aggression.” In another words phobias are a product of anxiety in which are also a product of traumatic experiences that happen in many cases when where children. In the past twenty years Applied Behavioral Analysis is the science of human behavior and is best definition was given in 1968 by Baer, Wolf, & Risley: “Applied Behavior Analysis is the process of systematically applying interventions based upon the principles of learning theory to improve socially significant behaviors to a meaningful degree, and to demonstrate that the interventions employed are responsible for the improvement in behavior.…

Brian is not the first athlete to encounter issues in trying to “bulk up”. Many high schools athletes do not have the knowledge on how to properly put on muscle and gain weight. I would ask Brian questions like: how many calories do you eat a day, how much creatine are you taking daily, what foods are you eating, how often are you eating, how often do you lift weights, what supplements are you taking, are you staying hydrated? It is evident that he had a family history of heart disease; this is important information because in order to give someone nutritional advice, one must know this to make sure recommended foods will help and not elevate his chance of heart disease. The history of heart disease effects his nutritional plan because we must be very careful in choosing foods for him to eat that will not elevate his chances of having heart problems at such a young age. As a high school athlete I do not have a problem with him taking creatine to try to put on some muscle mass. Creatine has been proven to help athletes and it is a good way to bolster up weight in the gym. There is a cause for concern if Brian is not keeping himself properly hydrated because creatine can cause muscle cramps that hurt the athlete on the field. I don’t think he needs to be taking creatine, but I do believe that it can definitely help him reach his goal weight. After doing the Mifflin equation with Brian’s stats, he should be eating 3434 calories a day just to maintain his weight. But his goal is to pack on weight so for a healthy gain of two pounds per week, he should be consuming no less than 4434 calories a day. It is clear that by eating only 3 meals a day, Brian is not consuming enough calories that his body needs. It is important for Brian to eat more often and to increase the portion sizes of his meals. He is a very active athletes that burns a lot of calories…
