Now a days, high construction are growing up just as the bamboo shoots after rain.Earthquake,fire and other disasters are running into people's eyes because of group of deaths and wounds,it teaches people to pay more attention to self-help in an emergency,especially when they are at home in the air.My design can be used as automatic lift racks in peacetime,slow down device in an emergency.It can bring a resistance form against the movement which is caused by the gravity of people by compressing spring in it,lifting victims down to safe place slowly .

SummaryIn an open study, ten people with phobia or panic disorder who could not travel repeatedly to a therapist accessed a computer-aided exposure self-help system (Fear Fighter) at home on the internet with brief therapist support by telephone. They improved significantly, and their outcome and satisfaction resembled those in patients with similar disorders who used Fear Fighter in clinics with brief face-to-face therapist support.

This study examined the relations between child rearing, prosocial moral reasoning, and prosocial behaviour. The sample consisted of 125 children (6-11 years of age) and both their parents. Child-rearing behaviour was assessed by both observations at home and interviews with the parents; prosocial moral reasoning by interviews with the children, and prosocial behaviour by questionnaires filled in by their teachers and classmates. Positive relations were found between prosocial moral reasoning and prosocial behaviour, but only for the youngest children. Children growing up in a supportive, authoritative, and less restrictive environment behaved more prosocially and reasoned at a higher level about prosocial moral issues.

AbstractObjectivePre-school nutrition-related behaviours influence diet and development of lifelong eating habits. We examined the prevalence and congruence of recommended nutrition-related behaviours (RNB) in home and early childhood education (ECE) services, exploring differences by child and ECE characteristics.DesignTelephone interviews with mothers. Online survey of ECE managers/head teachers.SettingNew Zealand.SubjectsChildren (n 1181) aged 45 months in the Growing Up in New Zealand longitudinal study.ResultsA mean 5·3 of 8 RNB were followed at home, with statistical differences by gender and ethnic group, but not socio-economic position. ECE services followed a mean 4·8 of 8 RNB, with differences by type of service and health-promotion programme participation. No congruence between adherence at home and in ECE services was found; half of children with high adherence at home attended a service with low adherence. A greater proportion of children in deprived communities attended a service with high adherence, compared with children living in the least deprived communities (20 and 12 %, respectively).ConclusionsChildren, across all socio-economic positions, may not experience RNB at home. ECE settings provide an opportunity to improve or support behaviours learned at home. Targeting of health-promotion programmes in high-deprivation areas has resulted in higher adherence to RNB at these ECE services. The lack of congruence between home and ECE behaviours suggests health-promotion messages may not be effectively communicated to parents/family. Greater support is required across the ECE sector to adhere to RNB and promote wider change that can reach into homes.

Jessica and I thought that it would be easier to explain our background and ideas using our voices. At the beginning of each segment, we indicate who is speaking to help the reader follow along with the conversation.Terence: To introduce ourselves, I am a 27-year-old male. After years of filling out what my ethnicity is, I am half Hispanic and half Caucasian. I do not fall into any stereotypes. I do not speak Spanish, but I can understand some from growing up in a mostly Hispanic culture in California. I learned French in high school. I also lived in the Netherlands for two years during a religious service mission. Growing up, I had a very diverse group of friends. Most of them had both parents in their life. The father was mostly always away at work, and the mother stayed at home, no matter what ethnicity or religion they came from. I didn’t notice any divorces or separations. That seemed like a rare thing, even when there were financial problems, which seemed to be the norm....

Growing up, I never liked jazz. Even when I began taking music seriously, my heroes were still Kiss and the like. It was not until my high school years, when I stumbled across a worn copy of Bitches Brew at the local library, that I began to take notice of jazz. My curiosity came from both boredom with my music collection at home and the wild album cover that was in my grasp. It felt like holding ...

Four randomized controlled trials have shown out-patient cognitive behaviour therapy reduces fatigue and disability in people suffering from chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS). However, some patients referred to Kings College Hospital, London are unable to attend regular appointments. We therefore developed a self-help treatment manual using cognitive-behavioural principles for patients to use at home with telephone contact with a therapist. Nine consecutive patients with a diagnosis of CFS who were unable to attend regular out-patient appointments used this self-help treatment approach at home. The therapist (MB) carried out a face-to-face assessment at the hospital. Subsequently, patients had fortnightly telephone appointments to discuss their progress, plan and discuss their homework and any problems. Outcome was evaluated using measures of functional impairment, fatigue, mood and general health before and after treatment and at 3 and 6-month follow-up. Eight patients completed treatment. Functional impairment, fatigue and general health improved at discharge and gains were maintained at 6-month follow-up. Self-treatment at home guided by a manual with fortnightly telephone sessions was helpful in the treatment of patients with chronic fatigue syndrome. A randomized controlled trial is underway to compare telephone cognitive behaviour therapy with out-patient cognitive behaviour therapy. Patients with other conditions such as chronic pain who are unable to travel for regular appointments may benefit from a home-based treatment package involving therapist contact by phone.

AbstractTwenty-one couples with complete sets of triplets aged between four and six years were interviewed about their experiences of being “triplet parents”. The diagnosis of triplets had been a shock for most. All triplets were born prematurely, the mean birth weight being 2,000 g. The first time at home was chaotic for most of the parents. They spent more time organizing and arranging their day and less time on emotional care than did parents of single infants. Growing up as a triplet, with constant competition for attention, stimulation and love from the mother (parents), differed a great deal from the situation for singletons and twins.The early relationship between mothers and triplets must be managed differently from that between mothers of singletons and twins. The study shows how important it is for obstetricians, paediatricians and other professionals to understand the specific needs of these families.
