2 FUN FAMILY CARD GAMES TO PLAY WITH 1 DECK

“My husband, daughter, and I were in a car accident that left my husband injured and requiring therapy. Garcia and Ochoa allowed us to get on with our fast paced lives and took care of things from start to finish. Shout out to Laura, who took care of us.” –A. Quintanilla

“My husband and I were able to put complete faith in this law firm because someone was always available to answer questions, and we were treated in a very kind manner. If all the lawyers were out of town or busy, Eliza or Cynthia were extremely helpful in finding answers or setting up appointments. They gave us full access to their knowledge and resources and helped to get justice for my husband’s injuries.

Whether you’re hanging out at home or camping with the family, card games are a great way to relax. A single deck is versatile and easy to pack, so if you have one on hand, try these two games that go beyond the classics like War and Go Fish. 1. Slapjack (2+ Players, No Jokers): The goal of this War-style game is to win all of the cards. To start, deal all of the cards face down, then have everyone form their cards into a pile without looking at them. Each player then flips a card face up into the center. Continue doing this until one of the cards played is a jack. 2. When that happens, the first person to slap the jack wins it and the cards beneath! They add them to their deck, and play continues until one player has all of the cards. To keep things interesting, if you accidentally slap a card that isn’t a jack, you have to give up one of your cards to the player with that pile, and if you run out of cards, you can reenter the game by slapping the very next jack. Spar (2–4 Players, No Ace of Spades or Cards Below 6): This easy game is played with just 35 cards, and the object is to win the last round (aka trick). To start, deal five cards to each player. Then, have the person to the left of the dealer lay one of their cards face up. Each person in the circle then plays a card in the same suit if they can or another suit if they can’t. Whoever has the highest card in the original suit wins the trick and starts the next one! The winner of the fifth trick wins the game. If you want to keep score, award three points if the winning card is a six, two points if it’s a seven, and one point if it’s an eight or higher. Then play again! We found these games on BicycleCards.com, but you can learn about them and dozens of others by checking out “The Ultimate Book of Family Card Games” by Oliver Ho from your local library.

All About Plant Explosion Injuries IF A POWER PLANT EXPLODES, Every year, thousands of workers are at risk of being injured or killed in a workplace plant explosion accident. While it is not the most common type of workplace injury, it is more common than most people would assume. In 2014, the National Census of Fatal Occupational Injuries reported that the percentage of deaths caused by explosions in the workplace increased 25% from previous years. OSHA said that an average of 5,000 people are injured every year in factory work areas due to fires and explosions. Most plants work with heavy industrial materials, toxic chemicals, and without proper safety measures; these can be the ingredients to a tragic explosion that can take many lives or cause lifelong injury. It is the job of the employer to provide a safe plant for their employees to work , though that is not always the case. Safety in the Workplace While it is completely the employer’s responsibility to create a safe place for their employees, it is a good idea to take note of the safety standards. Some of the basic protocols should include:
