To become a firefighter is not an easy job. To become an aircraft rescue and firefighter (ARFF) takes a special individual because of the unique level of duties it requires. There is a great deal of preparation and skills that ARFF personnel must have to respond effectively to any aircraft accident or incident. “Because of the extensive nature of emergencies” that ARFF personnel may come across, they must be well trained to handle any of these circumstances (Jenkins, 2008).

myocardium, which is described by the Frank-Starling mechanism. However, as the disease progresses, the heart loses that compensatory mechanism leading to a decrease in the strength of the contraction of the heart, hence, a decrease in left ventricular ejection fraction. There are two types of DCM, primary and secondary. Primary dilated cardiomyopathy are usually idiopathic in nature, however, “approximately 30% of cases” have a “familial transmission pattern.”3(138) Secondary dilated cardiomyopathy, on

My dad replied "Nope, I didn't hear a thing." I took my spot in the crammed back seat, and I couldn't believe what had happened in that endless night. As we drove away, I hoped that we would never return to that dreadful place again. Before the vacation was even over, the Hawke family vacation goal was a success. We managed to spend
Narrative- Water Slide Experience I was so excited. I could hardly breathe through the hour drive it took to get there. I was squished between my two ten-year-old best friends in the back seat of a white Saturn, but I didn't care. I was practicing over and over in my head what I was going to say to all the smart-alecky adults who would tell me I was too young to ride the water slides. I was simply going to reply, "Actually I'm ten, going on eleven." On the right of me sat the girl I met in

So much hair is disgusting" she told me most spitefully.I went to my seat crying with anger, not to those bullies or my teacher, yet to myself for being, so weird. I was now determined to cut my hair before the day was over. Finally the long awaited moment had arrived; the day was over and my Mom and Dad were waiting for

A driver or passenger travelling in a car is moving at the same speed as the car. If the car suddenly stops, the body of the rider inside will keep moving forward at the same speed. This demonstrates inertia. The tendency of a moving object to keep moving, or of a stationary object to remain at rest. Basically Newtons first law; that a
instructor introduced himself and asked the class to do the same. The first boy to introduce himself was Anthony. Anthony was the tallest and most mature looking of all the boys. As he proudly stood in front of his seat and introduced himself, the other boys began to hunch over in their seats, attempting to avoid being the next to stand. After Anthony, Michael stood next. Michael was also a rather mature looking 10-year old. The boys took turns and in the process, less and less attention was paid to

The hour-long presentation was ultimately concerned with rallying support for the Jane Goodall Institute and its “Roots and Shoots” program. Not surprisingly, the audience was comprised

It was then that I realized what I was about to experience. I stumbled to my seat, half looking a my feet, half looking at the band on stage. I can't remember their name but they were good.

Two deer sprinted across the road as we were driving through the tollbooth and I scared Jose Antonio half to death as I screamed upon seeing them. He jumped up in his seat thinking I had crashed into something and was relieved to see that I was only enthusiastically pointing out a couple of deer to him. A mob of black vultures formed a roadblock on our way to the slog. I was delighted to see numerous cricket frogs, both
Moving as a Child Some things in life are just meant to happen. Fate brought me to the seat I am sitting at, in this university, miles and miles from where I was born. I never thought I would move. The idea was inconceivable for an eight-year-old girl. Life was an endless cycle of days spent chasing butterflies, catching ladybugs, and blowing apart dandelions while nights were full of stars, crickets, and peace.

I can remember walking to kindergarten with tears in my eyes. As I walked to school, the tears would roll
