article: If you live near a volcano, your community likely has a plan in place to warn people that the volcano may erupt. In many cases, sirens and emergency alerts on televisions are used to alert people that danger is imminent. Local radio stations will also broadcast important advisories. Since each region is a little different, it's important to know the specific warning procedures in your area. As soon as you hear a siren, turn on the radio to find out what the local emergency management agency advises. You may be told to stay indoors, keep away from certain areas, or, in extreme cases, evacuate. If you don't live in the area, and you're just traveling through, you should still be familiar with the region's warning system so you'll know what it means when you hear it. If you live near a well-researched and well-monitored volcano, you can probably obtain a hazard-zone map from your local emergency management agency or, in the U.S., from the U.S. Geological Survey. These maps show the probable paths of lava flows and lahar (or mudflows) and give estimates for the minimum time it would take a flow to reach a given location. They also divide the area around the volcano into zones, from high-risk to low-risk. Using this information you can get some idea of how safe your house or workplace is, and you can plan the best route of escape. Because volcanic eruptions are complex and, to some extent, unpredictable, you should have several alternative routes to reach one or more "safe zones." Figure out what you'll need to do if you hear the sirens go off. Map out exactly where your family will go, and figure out the safest way to get there. Keep in mind that if the sky is filled with ash, you won't be able to travel far by car, since ash interferes with mechanisms in car engines and prevents them from operating correctly. Talk with each of your family members about the evacuation plan. Make sure everyone knows exactly what to do and where to meet. Don't forget to include your pets in your evacuation plan. It's a good idea to have a checklist you can run down so you make sure you don't forget anyone or anything in the heat of the moment. Include a list of the people and animals that should be present, the possessions you'll take with you, and fast actions you might take to seal up your house to prevent as much damage as possible. Store at least a two-weeks supply of food and portable water at your home. In the event of an eruption, water supplies may become contaminated, so you can't count on your well or public water. Keep all your supplies in one placea large container that you can carry, for exampleso that you can quickly bring them with you if you need to evacuate. In addition to food and water, stock up on the following: A first aid kit Blankets and warm clothing A battery-powered radio and fresh batteries so that you will be able to listen to advisories if the power goes out Necessary medications A map of the region If you will be visiting a volcano, knowledge is your most important protection. Before going to the volcano, consult with local authorities, and heed their recommendations or warnings. Learn about the hazards you may encounter in the area of the volcano, and get a reputable guide to accompany you, if possible. If you're going to be climbing or hiking near the volcano, you should bring a few survival items that will help you survive if you're caught outside without access to shelter. You'll need a respirator and goggles to protect your face and help you breathe. Bring long pants and long-sleeved shirts. Bring plenty of water in case you become unexpectedly trapped by a lava flow, and don't overexert yourself. You'll be able to react more quicklyand run for your life, if necessaryif you're not fatigued.

Perform 30 chest compressions and two rescue breaths as part of CPR. Remember your ABCs of CPR. Make sure the person is warm as you wait for medical help. Pay attention to a list of don'ts."
article: If a person is unconscious, try to rouse them by speaking to them or by tapping at the shoulder. do not be afraid to speak loudly or even shout. If they do not respond to activity, sound, touch, or other stimulation, determine whether they are breathing. If unconscious and unable to be roused, check for breathing: look for a rise in the chest area; listen for the sound of air coming in and out; feel for air using the side of your face. If no signs of breathing are apparent, place two fingers under the chin and gently guide the face pointing upwards to open up their airways. If any debris such as vomit can be seen, it is appropriate to move them onto their side to allow it to get out, which is achieved with the recovery position. Check for a pulse. Unless you suspect a spinal injury, carefully roll them onto their back and open their airway. If you suspect a spinal injury, leave the person where they are, provided they are breathing. Keep the head and neck aligned. Carefully roll them onto their back while holding their head. Open the airway by lifting the chin. In the center of the chest, just below an imaginary line running between the nipples, put your two hands together and compress the chest down approximately 2 inches (5.1cm) at a rate of 100 compressions per minute (or to the beat of "Staying Alive"). After 30 compressions, give two rescue breaths, done by opening the airways, closing the nose and fully covering the mouth hole. Then check vitals. If the breaths are blocked, reposition the airway. Make sure the head is tilted slightly back and the tongue is not obstructing it. Continue this cycle of 30 chest compressions and two rescue breaths until someone else relieves you. The ABCs of CPR refer to the three critical things you need to look for.Check these three things frequently as you give the person first aid CPR. Airway. Does the person have an unobstructed airway? Breathing. Is the person breathing? Circulation. Does the person show a pulse at major pulse points (wrist, carotid artery, groin)? Drape a towel or a blanket over the person if you have one; if you don't, remove some of your own clothing (such as your coat or jacket) and use it as a cover until medical help arrives. However, if the person has a heatstroke, do not cover him or keep him warm. Instead try to cool him by fanning him and damping him. As you administer first aid, be sure to be aware of these things that you should not do in any case: Do not feed or hydrate an unconscious person. This could cause choking and possible asphyxiation. Do not leave the person alone. Unless you absolutely need to signal or call for help, stay with the person at all times. Do not prop up an unconscious person's head with a pillow. Do not slap or splash with water an unconscious person's face. These are movie gimmicks. If the person appears in danger due to an electric shock, you may attempt to move it, but only with a non-conductive object.

This is especially helpful if you're also trying to teach them to help cut down on expenses. Show them how much money you earn each week and explain that they can't spend more than that amount. This step requires quite a bit of trust. Explain to your child that details of the family budget should not be discussed outside the family. Have them look in the kitchen cabinets and refrigerator to figure out what the family needs for the coming week. Then, review the list with them before going to the grocery store. While shopping, hand them a calculator to see how close you are to your budget as you add more items to the shopping cart. If money is tight, try planning your meals around what's on sale and which coupons are available. Have your child look through store circulars and help you clip coupons. At the store, ask your child to find unit prices on items. Have them divide the price by the net weight or number of contents in the package. This will help them to become more frugal shoppers. For example, a 5-oz. bag of chips costs $3, while a 10-oz. bag costs $5. If your child does the math, they'll find that the $5 bag is the better bargain at $0.50 per ounce (as opposed to the $0.60 per ounce on the $3 bag). Explain what they can and can't buy based on how much they've saved. Tell them that they might have to wait to buy the things they don't really need if they come up short. Turn it into a math lesson as an educational bonus. For example, their account balance is $100, but they want a $60 video game and a $50 jacket. After some simple addition, they'll discover that they don't have enough money for both. They'll have to choose one or the other. Consider it a reward for doing their chores. Tell them that if they want to save up for shoes before the store's sale ends, they'll have to work harder for the money. This will teach them that they must earn money and not just expect it to come out of nowhere. Assign a different monetary value to each chore. It might help to pay more for the less appealing chores. Let's say your child hates washing the dishes but doesn't mind mowing the lawn. Pay them $1 more for dishwashing. You can also encourage your child to look for ways to earn money outside of the house, such as by mowing the neighbor's lawn, shoveling snow out of driveways, or pet sitting. Brainstorm with your child to help them come up with some potential money making options.
