3.2 discussion Pt. 2

/in /by

When I think of “drug-related” violence, I think of crimes committed to obtain drugs.  We see in  the movies and on television children stealing items to sell for drugs, drug riddled addicts killing to get their next high or a gang war but not specific to drug trafficking and distribution.  The lack of accurate coverage in our mass media on the true center of drug-related violence is disheartening.  According to McQuail, “the study of mass media is based on the notion that the media has a significant effect on its audience” (Camarillo, Omar, 2021).After reading the assigned chapters in the Chasing the Scream I was dumbfounded on my prior ignorance.  It turned out 7.5 percent of the killings took place after a person took drugs and their behavior seemed to change.  Some 2 percent were the result of addict trying to steal to feed their habit and it going wrong.  And more than three quarters- the vast majority-were like Chino’s attacks.  They weren’t caused by drugs, any more than AL Capone’s killings were caused by alcohol.  They were, Goldstein showed, caused by prohibition (Hari, 2015, p.66).  I believe if people were more aware of the actual statistics of drug-related violence they would be more open to changing the downcast stereotype of all addicts.  I assume many people, as myself, have not witnessed or been a part of drug-related violence and take for granted the information we are receiving from mass media on the topic.  If it were more widely publicized correctly that 75 percent of all drug-related violence was within the trafficking and distribution sector, it would most likely lessen the brutal stereotypes placed on all drug abusers.ReferencesCamarillo, Omar (2021) Who are Deemed the “Worthy” and “Unworthy” Victims of Mexico’s Drug-Related Violence?,  Journal of Borderlands Studies, 36(1), 1-15. https://doi.org/10.1080/08865655.2018.1471732Hari, J.

 Instructions:

 You will compose an initial alert and warning based on a series of two suspicious bombings that occurred at noontime in the commercial/downtown district of your community (or nearest city). This alert and warning must be less than 160 words, so conciseness and brevity are important. Due to the bombings, the local police department has initiated an immediate evacuation of a 1/4 mile radius around the crisis point and are asking residents to stay away from this area until further notice. Two main roads are currently closed in that area. Residents are further asked to be alert for suspicious activity and packages, as there is the potential for further incidents. Public shelters have been established at two local public schools for persons in the evacuation zone and their domestic pets. A hotline has been set-up by the local emergency management office to report suspicious information to (1-555-555-RPRT) and their website will be updated on a regular basis with information for the public. 

 Requirements Headline: 

• A headline that accurately reflects the severity of the incident must be included. The headline must be 160 characters or less (including spaces). Message content: 1. Specific hazard: Identify the hazard. What are the potential risks for the community? 2. Location: Where is the crisis point(s)? Describe the location. 3. Timeframes: When did this occur? How long will the impacts last? 4. Warning source: Identify the official source of the warning. 5. Magnitude: What is the expected impact? 6. Likelihood: How probable is another occurrence? 7. Protective behavior: What actions should citizens take to protective themselves and when? Where should people evacuate to and what should they take with them? The Alert and Warning must be 160 words or less. Tip: If using Microsoft Word, highlight your text and the word count will show in the bottom, left-hand corner of your screen.

Discuss optimising squatting technique.

/in /by

Need an research paper on optimising squatting technique. Needs to be 5 pages. Please no plagiarism.

Squats strengthen critical muscles in the body for instance. soleus, Sartorius, and glutes. They also reinforce the back chain of muscles that include. the hamstring, glute, and calves. Through doing squats as an exercise, an individual will be able to burn calories thus getting rid of extra fats from the body. Squats enhance the general body endurance as they will facilitate accomplishing other tasks and sporting activities (Strossen, 1989).Squatting involves five distinct steps that ought to be to achieve the best results.

If squatting is not done in the right manner, it will lead to other problems since the person involved may develop irregular body growth due to lack of balance during the entire course. To begin with, the individual is supposed to grab the bar with a medium grip. The feet should be positioned directly below the bar assuming a perpendicular angle. The bar should be put on the rear shoulder and the traps during the shoulder being up with the upper back muscles remaining tight (Puddu, Giombini, & Selvanetti, 2001).

The next step involves unracking the bar from its position by squatting up. It is achieved by the person taking a single backward step with one leg. After the bar has checked into position, you should stand steadily while the hips should lock to ensure maximum stability.Next, the individual should take a deep breath and hold it as he/she prepares to make the squat. The knees are pulled to the side while the hips move backward and downwards. The motion should continue to the point one breaks parallel.

Breaking parallel is a position whereby the hips are below the knees (Magill et al., 2014).After breaking parallel, you should hold your breath while at the bottom. The entire movement is reversed by driving the hips upwards. The knees should be maintained out with the chest up, and the upper back muscles remaining tightly held to support the body from collapsing.
