Tornadoes

There is no denying that this treatment hurts, however the reduction in AKs is significant and does outweigh the Level 6-8 pain during treatment and the residual 4-6 pain post treatment. Levulan Kerastick, approved in 1999, was prescribed with a soluition application on Day 1 followed by Blu Light exposure 18-24 hours later. Most Dermatologists now use an application-light exposure timeframe of 2 hours. In moving to a 2 hour expsoure timeframe, pain and side effects have been drastically reduced. (In 2002 the blu light exposure often times produced pain levels above 10+.) Current side effects based on red haried complesion: Moderate pain first 36 hours. Reduced by NSAID products and/or Rx painkillers. Itchy/Scaling sores 36 - 72+ hours. Redness 3-5 days

Natural and man-made disasters can contribute to the threats posed to the environment. Firstly, earthquakes, hurricanes, tsunamis and many more natural disasters will cause significant damage to the ecosystem. For example, an earthquake or a hurricane can cause animals and plants to die out. Man-made disasters such as those caused by nuclear bombs can caused effects like radiation which will also wipe out the wildlife in the area.

Global warming is another aspect. Natural disasters such as volcanic eruptions can cause volcanic ash, gases and sediments to be ejected out. These will, in the long term, cause global warming. It may react with the ozone layer, resulting in big holes in them and letting UV rays from the sun pass through it onto Earth's surface. The gases produced, such as carbon dioxide and sulfur dioxide will act as greenhouse gases and trap heat on Earth.

Man-made 'disasters' are more usually referred to as our daily lives. What humans are doing now mostly contribute to global warming. For example, driving a car to work, switching on the air-conditioners at home when you are out, or even throwing recyclable materials into your rubbish chute that leads to the incineration plant contribute to global warming.

Social impacts can be caused by natural and man-made disasters. Natural disasters can cause houses to be damaged, resulting in many casualties and homeless people.

Not forgetting, global warming is posing the largest threat seen so far in the social environment. Global warming causes a rise in the Earth's temperature. This small rise may result in more frequent and stronger natural disasters such as hurricanes. The sea levels will rise due to the polar caps that are melting at the poles. Island nations in the Pacific Ocean and many coastal cities are threatened by this rise of sea levels and they will have to find other places further inland or even in other countries to stay. Crops will be destroyed by the more frequent and stronger natural disasters, resulting in a famine. Summers will get longer while winters will get shorter. Countries or cities than depend on winter sports or such to maintain their economy will suffer a huge blow.

Economically, natural disasters will cost the government a lot of money in rebuilding costs. This will result in a poorer economy as investors may run away from these countries due to either dangers or financial losses.

Again, due to global warming and rising sea levels, low-lying countries such as the Netherlands will have to build more dams to prevent frequent floodings, costing the government a lot. Diseases which spread due to higher temperatures will have to be controlled by the government pumping more money into healthcare research. There are also many other effects that will heavily impact a country's economy.

Go to a basement or cellar if you can. If one is not available go to an interior room, hallway, or closet on the lowest floor. A bathroom often provides good shelter. The idea is to get as low in the building as you can and put as many walls between you and the tornado as possible. Avoid windows as much as you can.

in the bible wine means you are a man of the Spirit, In the bible wine represented the Holy Spirit.

In the United States, there is an average of about 60 people that die every year due to tornadoes. Most deaths are caused by flying/falling debris.

Not at the location where the Olympics were being held. But tornadoes have occurred in locations far away from any Olympic stadium.

It depends on your position. People who have been exposed to the winds of a tornado have said it felt like being sandblasted, or in other words very painful. Those who were inside tornadoes but not exposed to the wind had the sensation of their ears popping.

A lot! General safety - know your safe area, basement, closet, etc. It may sound dumb but purchasing cycle helmets with a face guard can save your life. Head trauma is the #1 reason people are killed in tornados. The face guard will also help with flying debris. Keep blankets and pillows in your safe area to cover your body and protect you from flying debris. If it's big enough, a spare matress. Get a very large backpack that you can carry on your shoulders. Adapt to whatever you think you might need. Keep the bag handy to where you can grab it in a moments notice. You may want a separate bag for each person. Take into consideration you need supplies for ALL members of the family and it won't all fit in one bag. If you are hit by a tornado, you can't try to lug a large tote on wheels and it will probably be blown away. The backpack stays on your body. During tornado season: (remember they can happen in the middle of the night with no warning or you don't hear the warning until the tornado is on you!) 1. Don't sleep naked! Have a t-shirt and boxers on.

2. Have shoes by the bed. (if you have warning - put your shoes on with socks)

3. Put car keys, cell phone, glasses, wallet on the night stand in some small container that can be scooped up and dropped in the emergency bag quickly.

4. Have the emergency bag close by. Don't count on you making it to your safe place. You may have to dive to the floor and lay flat. Emergency Bag: 1. Radio - the best out there is "Eton" brand. It is self powered and you can get it at Walmart or Radio Shack. It has a weather broadcast, flashlight built in, emergency siren, alert light and it will also recharge your cell phone battery. Otherwise: Get a crank radio or battery radio with lots of extra batteries.

2. Flashlight - Either crank or battery with lots of extra batteries.

3. Glow Sticks - Don't use candles. Gas leaks could be present.

4. Copy of the contents of your wallet. Credit cards, medical ID cards, etc. In case your wallet doesn't make it, you have a record of everything in it.

5. Extra cash, credit card or traveler's checks.

6. Small power convertor to turn vehicle power into AC household power.

7. Cell phone charger.

8. Extra car keys.

9. Empty medicine bottles so you have the prescription number to get filled.

10. Small can opener.

11. Extra shoes and socks in case you don't have time to put yours on.

12. Spare glasses. Better to have an old prescription than none.

13. List of emergency contacts.

14. Police whistle to sound for help.

15. Lighter and water-proof matches. (may need a fire to stay warm)

16. Dust masks.

17. Garbage bags with ties - personal sanitation.

18. Toilet paper and toiltrees/hygeiene products.

19. Complete change of clothing including long sleeves and long pants.

20. Food - bottled water, granola bars, energy bars, cheese and crackers, canned meat. First Aid Kit:

1. Antibiotic Ointment

2. Antibacterial soap

3. Burn ointment

4. Adhesive bandages of all sizes

5. Medical tape

6. Gauze pads and large surgical pads (bleeding may be an issue)

7. Tweezers

8. Scissors

9. Thermometer

10. Eye wash/sterile saline

11. Moist towelettes

12. Over the counter: Aleve/Advil/Benadryl

13. Several pairs of gloves

14. Household chlorine bleach and an eye dropper - dilute nine parts water to one part bleach it becomes an antisceptic/disinfectant. To decontaminate drinking water - 12 drops per one gallon of water. No fancy colored bleaches or other chemicals! Just regular bleach. This all may sound silly but you may be without help for an extended period and possibly injured. Other things to consider:

Blanket/pillow

Sleeping bag with shoulder straps to carry.

Tools: (you may be trapped or need to help others and these things will be on your body)

1. Screwdriver with multiple tips.

2. Pocket multi-tool

3. Work gloves

4. Duct tape

5. Hammer

6. Pry bar

7. Pliers Organize everything in plastic zip lock baggies. You'll be surprised how much stuff will fit into the bag. The list seems pretty large but it really isn't that much stuff space wise.

Studies have shown that one-quarter to one-third of all precancerous or small cancerous growths can be seen with a sigmoidoscope.

If a tornado has been detected or spotted then a tornado warning is issued.

No. There is no way of controlling tornadoes.

Only in areas that have them. Many places don't. The sirens will only go off if the tornado is detected in time. Usually they are, but not always.

yes it can if it is above water because a tornado is stronger than a whale : : No, tornadoes are on land, but hurricanes can carry a blue whale.

Both answers above are somewhat incorrect.

Most tornadoes cannot carry heavy objects but those very few that reach F5 intensity can carry away buildings. So it might by possible.

Tornadoes can occur on water. They are called tornadic waterspouts.

As to hurricanes carrying objects; they don't have as powerful an updraft as a strong tornado. However a hurricane might by able to beach a whale when its storm surge recedes.

Usually a watch is issued first, and then warnings are issued as tornadic storms develop. However, occasionally a tornado warned storm may develop without a tornado watch.

There is no such thing as an F8 tornado. The scale as it works only goes up to F5 since it is based on damage rather than wind speed. However, theoretical winds in an F8 tornado would be 446-514 mph. Such winds are not thought to be possible in a tornado.

The primary tool in monitoring tornadoes is Doppler weather radar. Communication tools such as radios and cell phones are used by people to call in reports of tornadoes and funnel clouds.

the government does nothing but act like their really doing somthing by putting on the news when it really the community

Windows can easily break even in a weak tornado and send broken glass flying through the air. Windows also offer no protection against debris carried or thrown by a tornado. Most deaths and injuries from tornadoes are the result of flying or falling debris.

The Weather Channel has a system of assessing tornado probability. Tornado condition 1 means there is approximately a 10% or 1 in 10 chance of a tornado occurring within 50 miles.

A wedge tornado is a tornado that is very large, usually one that is wider than the distance between the clouds and the ground.

In order to know the answer to this, we would need to know the date and the exact time - and by the time you got an answer, it'd be too late if there was one.

For up-to-date information, see the National Weather Service website in the link below.

Not it is not. While some tornadoes have a calm center, that area is small and even if you are in that area, you will probably be struck the the violent winds within a few seconds.
