Science is also a huge part of Americas favorite sport volocity, motion, data, hypothesis, and many more! In this essay I will explian how Newtons 1, 2, and 3 law applie to football and concussion. Newtons first law is if and object stays in motion then it will continue to say in motion. For example if you throw a football, the football flys in the air until another object stops it. When you a football player is running with the football and he makes pretty harsh head to head cntact with another player or object, he will have an concussion. See after your head stops you brain is still in motion so it will continue to move until it hits your skull.

...This essay will argue that sports teams from high school to the NFL need to focus more on the dangers of concussion sin football. In sports everyone who commits to playing for an organized team knows that there is a large risk involved by the time you are stepping onto the field, Court or Ice Rink. One of the most common sports that athletes are being injured in is the sport of football. Every one knows the dangers of the the full contact sport because it is so widely commercialized in for all ages. From High School all the way to the NFL football is a big deal but what about the injury's that come along with playing this violent game.

...the word student precedes the word athlete so henceforth meaning that the athlete’s school work is more important than the athletics. When in fact that has nothing to do with the subject at hand, it was first used to sever any legal ties with workman’s compensation and the NCAA as seen in the court case for Ray Dennison. “Amateurism” on the other hand is another word mention in the essays from Branch and Van Rheenen. “Amateurism” as seen in “Exploitation in College Sports […]” is used by the NCAA to “maximize profit”, eliminate taxation on their income, eradicate any legal ties with worker’s compensation, and discharges themselves from being titled as an “illegal cartel” (555). In Branch’s essay “The Shame of College Sports” he calls both of these words “cynical hoaxes” which I cannot agree with him more. The National Collegiate Athletic Association uses these words exclusively to clear themselves from any legal encounters with the athletes and to profit from them even more than before. Henceforth, providing them with even more traits of an illegal cartel than many people...

...Qn. Write an argumentative/ persuasive essay on; why abortion should be legalized or not? The most basic definition of abortion is termination of pregnancy. According to Wikipedia ‘abortion is the termination of pregnancy by the removal or expulsion from the uterus of the fetus or embryo resulting in or cause of death.’ Over several centuries and in different cultures, there is a rich history of women helping each other to abort. The first recorded evidence of induced abortion was from the Egyptian Ebers Papyrus in 1550 BC. The history of abortion goes back as we can see but it is not until the 1800’s that laws forbade the act after 16 weeks of conception. By the early 1900’s the act was completely outlawed but even at that women were still having abortions. The discussion of whether abortion should or shouldn’t be legalized is a very sensitive. Currently, Kenya is going through the process of acquiring a new constitution, one of the contentious issues in the draft is the issue on whether the constitution is legalizing abortion or not. The issue of legalization of abortion is very controversial. Even though many people take the side of anti- abortion or pro-life i.e. they believe it should not be legalized, there are just as many who believe it should. The decision on whether to keep an unwanted pregnancy or not is one that strikes ethics, religion, morality, norms and most of all judgment from the society. A society that dictates what is right and wrong and sets the limits...

...Otherness: Essays and Studies 1.1 October 2010 Haunting Poetry: Trauma, Otherness and Textuality in Michael Cunningham’s Specimen Days Olu Jenzen Early conceptions of trauma are intimately linked not only with modernity but specifically with the height of industrialisation (Micale and Lerner 2001). This is converged in the opening of Specimen Days particularly in the image of an industrial accident at the ironworks where a young man is killed by the stamping machine. His young brother, replacing him at the machine after the funeral, then experiences an apparition of the dead brother still trapped inside the machine, which leads him to believe that all machines house entrapped ghosts of the dead. Writing on the Victorians’ anxieties about internal disruption caused by the advent of the railway, Jill Matus (2001, 415) has pointed out that, Freud himself remarked in Beyond the Pleasure Principle (1920), [that] there is ‘a condition [which] has long been known and described [and] which occurs after severe mechanical concussions, railway disasters and other accidents involving a risk to life; it has been given the name of traumatic neurosis’ (12). Freud’s remark brings to the fore the traumas of the industrial age as both individually and publicly experienced and negotiated. This condition of trauma as private and public, individual yet also societal is held in tension throughout Cunningham’s novel. Reflecting on the otherness of trauma and its vexed relationship to representation...

...Ethics and ethical theories: a road map for teaching ethics in business schools Joan Fontrodona (IESE Business School, Spain), Manuel Guillén (University of Valencia, Spain), and Alfredo Rodríguez-Sedano (University of Navarre, Spain) Introduction A three-dimensional framework to explain ethical theories Ethical approaches of business firms Teaching ethics experiences using this framework Discussion of the teaching experiences Conclusions References 1 2 6 9 10 12 13 Introduction This paper tries to contribute, in some way, to the urgent need recently warned by Benedict XVI: “the university, for its part, must never lose sight of its particular calling to be a "universitas" in which the various disciplines, each in its own way, are seen as part of a greater unum. How urgent is the need to rediscover the unity of knowledge and to counter the tendency to fragmentation and lack of communicability that is all too often the case in our schools!”1 This seems to be a challenge for both, Catholic and non-Catholic universities. The purpose of this paper is to present a theoretical framework that helps to conceptualize ethics and to clarify the characteristics and limits of the different ethical theories. In other words, students without philosophical background will find here a synthetic “road map” of ethical approaches. This framework has been previously published in a book in Spain2. In this paper, authors will describe the model and discuss how it has been successfully tested...

...CHEATING Definition Cheating is defined as the intentional act of breaking the rules, or attempting to achieve personal gain through fraud or deceit.16 To cheat is to deprive of something valuable by the use ofdeceit or fraud, to influence or lead by deceit, trick, or artifice, to practice fraud or trickery, to violate rules dishonestly, or to be sexually unfaithful.11 A cheater (sometimes called acheat) gets something by dishonesty or deception; or by depriving one of his or her rights and usually connotes deliberate perversion of the truth; or by large-scale cheating bymisrepresentation or abuse of confidence.11 Cheating is an act of lying, deception, fraud, trickery, imposture, or imposition. Cheating characteristically is employed to create an unfair advantage, usually in one's own interest, and often at the expense of others. Cheating implies the breaking of rules. Cheating is a primordial economic act: getting more for less, often used when referring to marital infidelity.3 Cheating is when a person misleads, deceives, or acts dishonestly on purpose.17 Cheating fundamentally includes several elements of both lying and stealing, with specific motivations to gain something of value by illegitimate means. That is why lying and stealing are discussed before cheating. Cheating is lying and/or stealing with the intention for acquiring something for more than merely the "pleasure" of fooling or depriving others. Children Cheating as a concept is not understood by children...

...i) Upon Julie’s arrest, she would first be taken to the custody sergeant, whose job it is to ensure that her initial detention is authorised, then the officer who arrested her would give brief details for the reason for her arrest. Then the custody sergeant will ask Julie questions such as her date of birth, or her height or address, by law Julie can refuse to answer these questions, but giving false details could result in obstructing a police officer. After this her rights will be detailed by the custody officer, these are the right to inform someone of her detention, the right to free legal aid before answering any questions, and the right to consult the code of practice. Julie would then be asked to sign a form confirming she has been read these rights. After the above steps have taken place, Julie would be searched to ensure that she is not carrying or concealing weaponry. This search would be carried out by an officer of the same sex, and would consist of a simple pat down; it is unlikely that Julie would be searched more thoroughly given the situation. The police could potentially ask to retain some clothes if it is felt that by retaining said clothes, it would provide evidence to the case, if this were the case, Julie must be provided alternate clothing. This incident is an example of an either way offence, as it could be trailed in the magistrate’s court, or the crown court, as a result of this, the police would have authority to conduct a search of Julie’s address or...

Ben Kibler TENNIS RECOVERY A Comprehensive Review of the Research A United States Tennis Association Sport Science Committee Project Editors: Mark S. Kovacs, PhD Todd S. Ellenbecker, DPT W. Ben Kibler, MD Introduction In the last two decades, physical training and competitive opportunities have increased dramatically in junior, collegiate and professional tennis. This arose due to a multitude of factors, but much of it has stemmed from an increase in knowledge and understanding of scientifically based training programs focused on improving performance. As this focus on performance has increased, the area of recovery has received relatively limited focus. Recovery is a multi-faceted paradigm focusing on recovery from training—session to session, day to day and week to week. Recovery is also vitally important during training as well as in competition between matches and between days during multi-day tournaments. As more information is needed in the area of tennis specific recovery, the Sport Science Committee of the United States Tennis Association (USTA) sponsored an extensive evidence-based...
