    Since the workers are daily grinding they are worn out and enervated. Also they are working in harmful factories with germs and diseases in the air. Does this make it safe for them or how about the consumers? The answer is everyone is at risk. In meat packing factories, employees would get cut by their butcher knives or by machinery. They would have no nails, they had worn them off pulling hides; their knuckles were swollen so that their fingers spread out like a fan ( Doc 1). It was a bit safer in clothing factories but still workers were still working in unhealthy conditions. Everyone was bunched in hot rooms. Diseases were easily spread. Once one person got sick everyone got sick. The machinery used in the factories was not safe. People lost their hands and fingers. This brought depression to people’s lives. In 1912 New York changed working conditions. New York State Factory acquired automatic sprinklers for all floors above seventh floor of buildings; broadens regulation and inspection of workplace safety (fire escapes, safe gas jets, fireproof, receptacles, escape routes, fire drills) ( Doc 4). This brought better changes in the way the employees…

    The ultra violet rays (UVA &UVB rays) coming off the bulbs are actually hurting their skin. Being tan is in fact not healthy. The creation of melanin, the chemical in your body that creates the brown color, is your skin's reaction to getting damaged. Another thing the tanners could potentially get from tanning in the beds is skin cancer which can sometimes be deadly. Ultra violet radiation, which is just the radiation from the light source to you skin, is what is so dangerous. Tanning to the common teenager is cool to do, yet they don't know why they get tan besides the light source, they also don't think the superficial problems will happen to…

    Pros And Cons Of Tanning

    A reliable study shows that 170,000 people are diagnosed with skin cancer from tanning beds yearly. Out of these people, 7,000 lose their lives from it (Raji). 7% of the American population is considered vitamin D deficient. Other studies have proven that 3,000- 4,000 people are benefited from the tanning beds’ vitamin D (Dr. Mercola). This is because higher level beds, such as level 5’s expose more UVB light, which is less powerful to the skin, then the UVA light, which penetrates deeper into the body. 12 out of 20 people use lotions during their tanning session. Unlike the 12 people who use lotions, the other 8 are more likely to encounter sunburns along with a higher percentage rate of skin cancer. Out of the 2.3 million tanners a year, only 832,000 prefer using the spray tan, which develops a sunless tan. This leaves the rest to have a greater risk of skin cancer, but also less exposure to the vitamin D (M.D. Sarnoff). The majority of tanners are by far the women, but much of the male population is beginning to increase within the tanning…

    Kate Chopin's "The Story of an Hour" teaches us the importance of not repressing who we really are, forsaking our own happiness just to please someone else. "The Story of an Hour" is about a young woman, Louise Mallard, who finds out her husband was killed in an accident. In the story, we follow Louise Mallard in the hour following the receipt of the news of her husband's death, through her period if grief and into her revelation if new found freedom. The story ends with a final twist, Louise Mallard's husband walks in the door, oblivious to the situation, and she dies instantly of " heart disease--of the joy that kills (413)." The hour spent looking into Louise Mallard's life is meant to serve as a warning against giving up one's self completely in love and marriage. Chopin teaches us that in marriage we often repress our own feelings and desires, in the pursuit of pleasing our partner, to the point of losing site of who we really are.…

    Being a welder is something I have wanted to do since I started learning it. I knew a little about welding when I first started welding. I knew it was a very hot job, especially during the summer. I also knew that this field of work requires a ton of practice before mastering it. This job can also be dangerous and requires many safety procedures before actually performing it. One other fact that I knew about welding is that it is very hard work and a challenge. It is a challenge because of the patience and dedication it takes to learn how to produce a quality weld. This is a type of work that very few people go into college for, and even less try to make it into a career. I am aware that this job is in high demand in some parts of the country,…
