The state of Indiana was named after the Native Americans. Indiana means "Indian Land." The first long-distance auto race in the U. S. was held May 30, 1911, at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Indianapolis Motor Speedway, with a permanent seating capacity of 235,000, is the highest-capacity sports venue in the world.Electroencephalographic (EEG) techs are required to have a high school diploma or GED and CPR certification; however, most employers prefer postsecondary training. They use equipment to locate brain abnormalities. EEG techs are trained to operate machines known as electroencephalographs, which are used to measure and record the electrical activity of brain waves via electrodes secured to the patient's scalp. The technicians use these devices to administer tests called electroencephalograms (EEGs), which may then detect brain disorders or damage. EEG techs can use these tests to monitor patients during sleep cycles. EEG technicians also perform pre-test consultations and record the patient's medical history. Since the EEG can be stressful for some patients, EEG techs can also explain the test procedure to patients in order to help assuage some of their fears.
