This agreement also provides economic incen- tive payments to Switch, should the company meet its obligations, based on roughly half of the money generated by sales and use tax revenue received from Switch. The $80 million in taxable sales and purchases Switch is responsible for would result in $1.2 million in net income for Round Rock, according to city documents.
Being in the stands doesn’t mean you have to stand by Athletes who take consistent impacts to the head may develop Post Concussion Syndrome. Symptoms include: ■ Constant headaches ■ Learning difficulties ■ Mood swings & behavior symptoms affecting personal relationships
However, not all symptoms are easily identified. Subconcussive impacts are lower impact jolts to the head. Symptoms may not manifest, but can lead to severe degenerative brain diseases over time.
The use of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) to treat concussions and traumatic
brain injuries in patients aims to relieve symptoms and accelerate recovery by promoting damaged tissue repair and angiogenesis, or blood vessel growth.
