Enjoying your son’s, daughter’s, brother’s, sister’s, friend’s summer activities, or participating is sports and exorcise, seems like something that could never hurt you. However, people with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) have fear of going out in hot summer months, or exorcising, because this puts them at a high risk of a MS attack. Artic Heat USA originated in Australia, as the leading brand of Cold Vests (a vest that keeps your body temperature cooler for people with Multiple Sclerosis). The invention has been most commonly recommended by leading MS doctors such as: Dr. Corey Bloom, including research studiers for medicines such as Copaxone, as well as, the National MS Society.

There are many different brands of Cold Vests around the world. However, Artic Heat USA, has recently been given the title of the leading Cold Vest in not only Australia, but in the United States (US). The reason it has became so successful is that Artic Heat USA uses top of the line cooling material as well as ice packs. It was designed to take only minutes to recharge and leave you with hours to occupy it. The idea was originally for athletes, then the MS activists as well as patients with MS caught on and now it is a phenomenon. The vest can be used by all body types, because it comes in sizes XS – XXXL.

The Vest has saved many lives, however it still has few limitations. Patients with MS may have difficulty carrying the 2.2 pound vest for too long. As well it is bulky and clothes don’t fit over or under. Other problems such as leaking can occur. However, the positive aspects outweigh the negative.

Multiple Sclerosis has taken many lives and altered tragically others. If you have MS don’t deprive yourself of summer activities or exorcise because of the fear of an attack. Artic Heat USA has the answer for you. Today many people have been enjoying life with MS with no problems from the heat, you can do that too. Neurologists, scientists and societies recommend Artic Heat USA Cold Vest’s as well, studies have shown it works, start enjoying your summer today!

Today we are called the Millennium Kids. This means we want it all. However, with Artic Heat USA Cold Vest’s we are not getting it all. Announcing to the world that you have Multiple Sclerosis is a frightening thought, and you should have the choice weather to tell people. Wearing a Cold Vest made for people with MS is announcing that you have MS, and that is not fair. As well a bulky inaccessible vest robs us of fashion choices. Not to mention, MS is known to affect your muscles, carrying 2.2 pounds for more than an hour may not be the easiest. However, Cool Clothes is a fashion line from top fashion companies like, Ed Hardy and Volcom, teaming up with the leading brand of cooling material.

Cool Clothes combines top selling clothing companies and cooling thin cloth like material. Basically a clothing line designed for people with MS. A whole month starting at $60 which is less than a cold vest. As well the clothes can be reused and washed like normal clothes. No one will know that those are actually clothes that keep you cool. Making it so that no can know if you have MS, unless you choose to tell them. Cool Clothes gives you the choice! They come in sizes, XXS – XXXXXXXL and can come in infant, toddler, kids, juniors, and adults clothing as well in pajamas.

You are correct, that most patcients would be willing to do anything to stop an oncoming attack. However that is only representing adults with MS. Teenagers above anyone else will follow trends, and if it’s not in they won’t wear it. Cold Vest’s are not in, and it’s not fair that a child that is already dealing with MS will have to put aside personal style because of their disability. However, if it was at their best interest they would wear it. Should an individual have to give up something they like because of a disability? Is that giving that individual the same life as someone without the disease? No.

When walking into a room of strangers it is already an uncomfortable situation. When wearing a vest that practically tells the world that you have MS it is even more uncomfortable. Everyone has secrets and it has been a choice weather to tell.

Living with MS is already hard enough. Why make it harder with a vest that you have to charge before wearing? MS is known to cause memory problems. When you forget to charge your vest, you could be set minute’s late waiting for your vest to become cold again. However that is not the only problem with the actual design of the vest. Your natural body temperature will heat the vest as well as the temperature outside, causing it to melt, and possibly even leak; as well maneuvering in a soaking vest is extremely difficult. With Cool Clothes, there is no charging, and no ice packs, just cooling material. So there is no worry that it will leak.

Although, 2.2 pounds sounds like a lightweight invention, individuals with MS have muscle problems: cramps, aches, and weakness. 2.2 pounds for a 2 hour trip could be tiring and detrimental. Added weight is added heat. Although the vest is cold it does melt, and after melted it can become hot.

Cool Clothes gives you the choice! Cold Vest’s gives you little opportunity to express yourself or even keep some things secret. Today we want it all, and we’re not getting it. Right now is the time to get what you want, and market Cool Clothes!

Stay Cool With COOL CLOTHES!

In that compromise he stated the idea that California was admitted to the union as a free state, so long as New Mexico and Utah were territories open to slavery.

Uncle Tom’s Cabin-
Uncle toms cabin was a book published in 1852. This was the story of a slave and his owner. The slave was beaten to death by his master, yet while he was get beaten, he was praying for his master and begging for his life on his knees. The book infuriated the South and opened the eyes of those in the North.

Kansas Nebraska Act-
The Kansas Nebraska act was proposed by Stephen A. Douglas in 1854. This act stated that the laws on slavery held in the land of Kansas and Nebraska would be settled by popular sovereignty. This meant that the people there would be able to decide the fate of those sates themselves. This uprooted many problems.

Dred Scott Case-
The Dred Scott cases happened in 1857. A slave by the name of Dred Scott has traveled north with his master and stated that since he was on free land, he was a free man. When he was not given his right to freedom, he went to the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court had other decisions to make beside whether or not Scott was a slave or free man. They had to decide if he even had the right to go to court. The court decided that Dred Scott could not sue for his freedom, because he was not a citizen, nor could he even become one. The court also stated that slaves were property, and it is against the 5ht amendment to take away the property of an American.

The South was fed up with the thought of not being treated as equals. During the election of Lincoln, Lincoln was no where on the ballots in the South. However, he ended up being the president of the United States. The South felt as if they had no voice and were not untied with the 'Untied States'. So they decided to separate and this led to the civil war.


Manifest destiny:
Louisiana Purchase-
In 1803 the United States were able to buy this amazing amount of land from Napoleon for only 15 million, which was only about a couple a cents an acre.

Ceded by Spain-

Mexican Cession-
In 1848, after the Texas annexation, Mexico was not on good terms with the U.S. After the war between the united states and Mexico, the Untied states won and was able to claim most of the west side of the Untied States. Though there was a misunderstanding with the boundaries of the newly gained land, everything turned out right in the end.

Transcontinental Railroad-
The Untied States new that there needed to be a way of connecting California to the rest of the Untied States, that is where the idea of the railroad came to be in 1850. However, it wasn't until 1853 that Congress had approved the survey of routes and not until 1858 that cars were starting to be built for the railroads. Then in 1862 Congress approved of the making of the railroad, and it was completely linked in 1881.
