A cement mixture inserted into the well by Halliburton also didn’t serve it’s purpose. This is ultimately the reason why oil spilled all over the Gulf of Mexico. Many believe that the blowout preventer and cement malfunction is Transocean’s fault because they trusted CIC and Halliburton to do their job properly. That still isn’t BP’s fault. BP still didn’t install or build the blowout preventer, they didn’t mix the cement either, and if you buy something, you trust…

Deep brain stimulation is a technique where an electrode is placed within certain areas of the brain. Electrical impulses are then created by the electrode to regulate abnormal impulses. Under the patient’s skin near the collarbone, the electrode is connected to a stimulator or pacemaker (Pluta, 2011). Deep brain stimulation requires locating the target part of the brain and then drilling a small hole in the skull to allow the placement of an electrode. During the implantation of the…
