bad way, alcoholic paralysis was setting in. I was living in a bedsit and I crawled along the hall, got hold of a phonebook and called the AA Helpline. I couldn’t make a meeting that night but about two or three days later I got to the AA Rooms in Glasgow. What do you remember of your first meeting? I was given half a cup of tea, a friendly welcome and was asked to come back. The chairperson was a man just a few years older than me and he and two women, when they realised how ill I was, took…

“We never sleep” was the motto of Allan Pinkerton’s detective agency. Pinkerton led these spies in the South where they “Didn’t sleep”, discovering more and more tactical information on the South’s plans to win the Civil War. In the USA a great war would soon begin a war that would separate the young nation, and would create the North and the South (Confederacy). The war would begin on April 12, 1861, and the main reason for this war was slavery. Spies such as Allan Pinkerton and the…

This is an example of Risks and Hazards, as the Risk was the changing of water and the Hazard was the contaminated drinking water. Key: Flint homes with more than 15 Parts per billion of lead (ppb) (2/1/16) This image shows how many…

Behind the shadows of a dimly lit Hollywood sign, lies secrets of the grit and glamour of Los Angeles in the 1940’s. On the sunny morning of January 15th, 1947, on a mother and daughter’s stroll, a gruesome discovery was unveiled thereby creating the mystery of “The Black Dahlia.” Behind that ghastly smile engraved in the memories of many, her mystery is one that has stumped many.

Lewis Lapham’s view on “the American faith in money” is not correct, and there are only opinions to back up his claims, not real facts. I disagree with his views, and everything he has said is very, very biased opinion and not facts from trusted sources. Lapham does this by stating that Americans are greedy and money is everything in the world to them. He also implies that without money, Americans are hopeless and have lost their happiness. First, continuing on the topic about the American…

The purpose of this experiment was to analyze meso- and microzooplankton feeding. Largely due to size differences, mesozooplankton (>140 μm) are important exporters of carbon and prey for larger organisms, while microzooplankton (100–140 μn) are important recyclers of nutrients, dominant grazers of phytoplankton, and key link in the microbial loop (Conroy et al., 2016; Uitto and Hallfors, 1996). Therefore, understanding this relationship between zooplankton and grazing will allow scientists…

The ABCDE framework (Resuscitation Council 2005) is an acronym that is used for assessment and treatment for critically ill patients. It is a framework that is widely recognised and when used correctly can form the basis for a rapid, yet systematic and therefore thorough initial assessment (Jevon 2010; Page and McKinney 2012). It also assists in determining the seriousness of the condition and helps to prioritise the interventions needed (Page and McKinney 2012; Thim et al. 2012). It is…
