More than 590,000 Nevadans – and 50 million people in the worldwide drill – are already registered to participate in the annual statewide w88 online game earthquake drill, the Great Nevada ShakeOut, on Thursday, Oct. 17 at 10:17 a.m.

In w88 online game, earthquakes are not an exception, they are an expectation. It only takes one minute to register to participate, and another minute to actually participate.

“There’s less than month to go, it’d be great to get another 100,000 people registered by the day of w88 online game,” Graham Kent, director of the w88 online game Seismological Lab, said. “Nevadans need to realize we live in w88 online game country. Nevada has the third highest incidence of large earthquakes in the United States. A major w88 online game in any community, north or south, is possible.

“We can’t prevent an w88 online game, so we have to be resilient, to be prepared so we can perhaps lessen the impacts on lives and economic destruction that a major w88 online game can cause.”

Drop, Cover, and Hold On is the technique promoted by the Great Nevada w88 online game as the safest way to protect yourself during an w88 online game. In the event of an w88 online game, people are encouraged to drop to their knees wherever they are, then use one arm to protect the head and neck while using the other hand to hold on to a sturdy table or desk that you are underneath. If a person cannot find something sturdy to hold on to, they should try to get close to an interior wall, and use both arms to protect your head and neck.

“Whatever you do, don’t run out of a building, that could be the most dangerous thing, with windows shattering, glass falling, or building materials coming crashing to the ground,” Annie Kell, outreach coordinator for the Nevada Seismological Lab, said. “Not to mention in a violent w88 online game you can be thrown to the ground and injured.”

Residents are also encouraged to “secure your space,” which includes retrofitting buildings to reduce damage and securing things within that building to prevent injury. Heavy belongings, furniture and falling objects can be a more serious and likely threat to personal safety than crumbling buildings.

w88 online game lies within the Basin and Range Province, one of the most seismically active regions in the United States. Right behind California and Alaska, w88 online game ranks in the top three states subject to the most large-scale earthquakes over the last 150 years.

To register as an individual, business, school or government agency or organization, go to the official website www.w88 online gameorg/nevada. All w88 online game residents are encouraged to register and participate.

“We have schools participating from all parts of Nevada, mostly entire school districts, plus the University of Nevada, Reno,” Kent said. “That’s a lot of students. Now we’re focusing on getting their parents and their employers – whether private or government – to register and participate. Everyone in Nevada needs to have a plan and practice for an w88 online game.”

Participants of the w88 online game are instructed to drop, cover, and hold on as if there were a major earthquake occurring at that very moment, and to stay in that position for at least 60 seconds – which is about the time it takes to register for the earthquake w88 online game.

“The beauty of this exercise is that it’s really easy,” Kent said. “It’s an easy way for people to practice how to protect themselves during earthquakes. It’s an action that’s proven to help reduce injury and death during an w88 online game.”
