Senior Project 88% of Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) cases occur in the victim's home. Roughly 70% of Americans do not know how to administer Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR), or have not kept up on the required training. 326,000 people in the United States are hospitalized due to SCA. In order to gain a better understanding of Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation one must know where it originated. The ten year period from 1950-1960 was a decade of improvement for resuscitation measures.

Sudden Cardiac Arrest The problem of heart attack is too often misunderstood with cardiac arrest by a lot of people.

一、传统中国家庭的起源说 中国历史上,三代(夏、商、周)以前的时代,可统称为远古时代,距今有四千年以上。虽无文字记载,但学者从生活中的传说和神话中推论,古人的婚姻家庭型态有两个最基本的特点:一是「具有血缘的人过着群婚的家庭生活」,另一是「孩子只知道母亲而不知父亲」的状况。 汉代学者郑玄说「天地初分之后,遂皇(燧人氏,古代传说中人类最初的首领)之时,则有夫妇。」此外,许多古书中也都有「伏羲氏制嫁娶,以俪皮(鹿皮)为礼。」的说法。在周代的《诗经》里有出现「昏姻」二字,昏姻指的就是嫁娶。此外,婚姻二字还分别代表夫与妻,或者指姻亲的双方。「家庭」一词则到南北朝时期才出现,不过「家」这个字却与昏、因(婚、姻的本字)一样,在殷墟出土的甲骨文里就能见到。 二、西方基督教的家庭起源说 西方文化深受基督教思想之影响,而当今的婚姻与家庭方面的理论有许多乃引自欧美学者之论述,因此,在探讨家庭起源时若能对圣经的基本信念有所认识,则更有助于了解西方的家庭。 (一)夫妻本为一体 根据圣经的记载,上帝在造天地之后,开始创造各种生物,最后,祂按着自己的形象造人,使人类负责管理世界万物

DSL is available at a cost of $60 per month for 1.5 Mbps down and 384 Kbps up. DSL point-to-point technologies designed to provide high-speed data transmission over traditional telephone lines. The reason for the limited capacity on traditional telephone circuits lies with the telephone and the switching equipment at the end offices. The shorter the distance, the higher the speed, because with a shorter distance, the circuit suffers less attenuation which means a longer distance from the station
