Broken arms will usually be very easy to identify. If you think you or your child has a broken arm, go immediately to the emergency room so it can be treated. Symptoms include:  Extreme pain Swelling Bruising Dizziness or lightheadedness right after the break occurs The arm is bent in a way that it shouldn’t be The person is unable to move his wrist or fingers A snapping or grinding noise when the injury occurred Bleeding and pieces of bone sticking out through the skin Remember that if the break is complex, it may be necessary for the person to get anesthesia while the doctor moves the pieces of bone back into place. Do not give the person anything to eat or drink.  Use an ice pack to reduce the person’s pain and swelling. Wrap a bag of ice or package of frozen peas in a towel. After 20 minutes, give the skin a chance to warm up. You can use a large towel to help the person support the arm in a sling or prop up the arm. Do not move the arm, that could cause more damage. The splint will be put on the arm to immobilize it while the doctor examines it. The splint is hard on one or two sides, but open on the other in case the arm continues to swell. The splint will have several layers:  Soft cloth to protect the skin against irritation Soft padding Plaster or fiberglass to prevent movement An elastic bandage to hold the pieces of the splint in place The doctor will want to look at the arm, feel the arm, and will probably order X-rays. X-rays will create an image of the bones in the arm and help the doctor determine whether they need to be realigned so that they will heal in the correct position.  For minor fractures where the bones remain correctly aligned, no additional procedures may be needed before putting a cast on the arm. If the bones are not aligned, the doctor will give the person anesthesia to either numb the area or put her to sleep. Then the doctor will try to move the bones back into place. If this is not possible, the doctor may need to do surgery. This is more likely to be necessary when a joint has been broken. Surgery may also be necessary if wires, plates, screws, or pins are needed to hold the pieces  of bone in place.

Summary: Recognize a broken arm. Make the person as comfortable as possible on the way to the hospital. Have the doctor splint the arm. Allow the doctor to examine the arm.


Write them down on paper in dot point form if that helps you to visualize them and play around with them. Simply write whatever comes to your mind, being inspired by the ideas. Then stop. Take a break from the work. Read through the work. Now get to editing it and shaping it into a real piece of writing. From the first tidy-up, things should start getting a lot easier and you'll soon be in the flow.

Summary: Gather your ideas together in your head. Start writing without having a plan. Keep writing until you don't feel much like it. Come back later.


With a very sharp boning knife, remove fat, cartilage, and any bruising, discoloration and dry spots that result from the aging process. Much of the toughness or undesirable gaminess negatively associated with venison can be lessened by removing these parts. In labeled meal-sized portions, pack the meat into plastic freezer bags. Squeeze as much of the air as possible out of the bags and that the bags are sealed tightly before placing them in the freezer. Don't forget to date the meat. Meat prepared this way should remain good for at least a year. Ground venison and sausage might lose their flavor more quickly. For the best quality, try to use the ground meats first. . If you want to prepare and keep some of your meat without freezing it and you have the equipment to smoke meat, venison makes for great cured summer sausage. You can use a corning brine to create your own venison version of corned beef. . One of the most popular preparations among hunters, venison jerky is a chewy and delicious way of preparing venison and keeping it for a long time on the shelf. Use a commercial food dehydrator to remove the moisture from the meat, flavoring it to your taste.

Summary: Prepare it for freezing. Freeze the meat. Consider curing or smoking some of your venison Make venison jerky


As you improve, resist the urge to up your performance on your easy days. Better your odds at achieving runner's high on your next hard day (whether it’s a race or a workout) by making sure your body has recuperated from the last one. Remember to run at a pace that is slow enough for you to chat with a partner at the same time.  Tiring yourself out by running hard on your easy day will set you back on your next hard day. Starting a hard run when you’re already exhausted will reduce the chance of pushing yourself hard enough for your brain to release the necessary chemicals. At the same time, you're just as likely to experience runner's high on an easy day if your body still feels wiped out from yesterday's hard run. Once you successfully run 90 to 150 minutes a few times, start setting lower goals for your long-distance hard runs. Devote more time to high-intensity workouts, rather than accumulating more mileage per week. At the same time, reduce the chance of injury that may occur from so much repeated high-impact on your feet, legs, and hips.  Don't worry about losing endurance. High-intensity workouts will still help build endurance despite the lower mileage. At the same time, limiting the number of long-distance runs you go on will improve the odds of you experiencing runner's high the next time you go for one. Don’t expect runner's high to mask every single discomfort that you might feel. Take care of yourself so you can enjoy it more fully when it does occur. Always be sure to:  Warm up for 15 to 20 minutes by jogging lightly or walking fast before your run, race, or workout. Eat properly and stay hydrated, with enough time to digest food beforehand in order to avoid cramps. Wear appropriate clothing and shoes, both for running in general and the weather. Remember: there is no guaranteed way to achieve runner's high. Resist the urge to push yourself harder than your body can handle when chasing it. Avoid over-straining or injuring yourself, since these will only hinder your chances.
Summary: Keep your easy days easy. Cut back on mileage. Treat your body right. Don't hurt yourself seeking that high.
