Airbag

This was the seventh week out of twelve in my internship. This was another great week that was insightful and helpful to furthering my knowledge of the criminal justice system. I was sick on Monday which is why there is no event for that day. The log ends on the following Monday because I wanted to keep the string of five-day work weeks present in my reports. I am only mentioning this to make sure that there is no confusion in that part of the report. This week, was the week of the citizen’s…

can be as severe as needing mechanical ventilation (“Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation”). This bruising of the lungs is called a lung contusion, which was very common in the 1960’s (“Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation”). Around this time, seatbelts and airbags first appeared to reduce the risk of lung contusions. Compressions can also cause serious rib fractures, sternal fractures, internal bleeding and broken bones (“Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation”). The risk of broken ribs is greater for women than…

Recall- By the end of the movie Mike was grateful for his new life and opportunities presented in front of him.

Global warming is due to a large amount of human use of coal, oil and other fossil fuels, resulting in greenhouse gas…

People Kill People- Guns Make It Easier I will always remember the first time I pulled a trigger. I was 10 years old when my dad took my sister and I to a gun range. Just knowing that I would get the chance to hold a gun made me feel grown. Shooting at the targets with the rifle, or just shooting aimlessly, was probably the most nerve-wrecking and exhilarating experience I had as a kid. Since I was young, I didn’t fully understand the power or danger of a gun. To me, guns were just…

This lack of omniscience opens the door for numerous “what ifs”, “whys” and “hows” about the universe and our existence. Ergo, there will always be a need for science to help us to understand how things work.…

Autonomous technology has always been an important part of space exploration. Spacecraft can be fully autonomous or can work in collaboration with human operator on earth. All space exploration vehicles needs to be at least partly autonomous because of the distance that separates it from the nearest space station. Far distances mean that communication with the vehicle will always be delayed, therefore the vehicle won’t be able to react to sudden changes. For example, it takes 14 minutes for a…
