Since the launch of the app in 2010, Pinterest alone has over 150 million users, and the numbers are still growing on a daily basis (Silbermann, B., Sharp, E., & Sciarra, P., 2010). 70 million are in the U.S., and the other 80 million comes from all over the world (Silbermann, B., Sharp, E., & Sciarra, P., 2010). Pinterest is known as one of the most common online shopping apps out in the world because its objectivity…

It influences stability of the shoulder joint and transfers forces from the legs to the arms (Ebaugh et al, 2010). These movements are crucial for a tennis serve and therefore show its importance in maintaining optimal function in this area (Schacter, 2010). Reinold et al (2013) has suggested that exercises strengthening the scapula stabilising muscles (serratus anterior and trapezius muscles) have shown to be beneficial for overarm…

approximately twenty plates on the earth’s crust. When they occur they cause earthquakes, which in turn, create fault lines. According to the map from www.weatherwizkids.com/weather-earthquake.htm majority of earthquakes take place on the west coast of North, Central, and South America. As well as India, the Philippines, New Zealand, an eastern parts of Africa. The Richter scale is a device that measures the magnitude of an earthquake, one being the least destructive and ten being the worst.…

They are created by many active fault zones within the Earth (Fronabarger). Most earthquakes are made along faults, tectonic plate boundary zones, or even along mid-oceanic ridges (Pidwirny). Small earthquakes can be caused by volcanic activity, landslides, mine blasts, and nuclear experiments (Science Daily). Sun and moon cause tremors by creating…
