Security needs increasingly affect all kinds of businesses in the West, and merchants in the United Kingdom and United States face possible litigation, property losses and nightmare PR scenarios when preventable deaths occur on their property. It doesn't really matter if these threats are deliberate, accidental, or natural disasters if negligence contributes to the damage or harm. Terrorism, hostile intent, and accidental encroachments on your property can generate big legal bills and…
This is evident even from the heading of Paine's third chapter, 'Thoughts on the Present State of American Affairs.'; The word 'thoughts' can infer that what follows is simply one man's conception on how things are and how they should be; that they may not necessarily reflect the true views of one nation. In fact, Paine says this in his introductory paragraph, by disclaiming that 'perhaps the sentiments contained in the following pages are not yet sufficiently fashionable to procure them general…
Science is a difficult concept simply that to define it, is to define all we know about the world in which we live. I am of the opinion, that since the dawn of the scientific age there has been a clear and defining breakdown in terms of gender in science. As a young woman studying Marine Biology, I someday wish to be viewed as a member of the scientific community. In spite of this, when I think of a ‘scientist’, a man in a lab coat is all that comes to mind. This is the historical image of…
Throughout his life, Dan Reynolds has been through some ups and downs. It is through these triumphs and struggles that he finds the words to write his songs. Each of his songs tells a story of the things he has overcome or has wrestled with in his life, whether that be love, depression, or ankylosing spondylitis—a type of arthritis.

The skin is organized in two parts: the epidermis and the dermis. The epidermis is the thin outer covering of the skin. It serves as a permanent protective barrier that helps to keep out everything from water to microorganisms. Additionally, it has the task to renew itself if cut or damaged in anyway. Furthermore, the epidermis also help to produce a water resistant protein called keratin, which helps the growth of hair and fingernails. The dermis is the inner layer of the skin that is mostly…
SUKHUMI, Georgia — He is blind in one eye and has a bad hip that makes it painful to sit, never mind endure the kicks and punches that are an essential part of his job as a mixed martial arts fighter. He is also nearly twice the age of many of his rivals at the top of his harrowingly brutal profession. Yet, as happens whenever Jeff Monson, a 45-year-old American known as “The Snowman,” visits a town in Russia — or, in this case, Abkhazia, one of the pro-Russian enclaves in the lands of the…
My Aunt Barb suffered from bipolar depression for much of her life. She masked her pain by getting drunk or smoking marijuana. Barb 's lifestyle convinced her to divorce her husband, and the grief worsened her addiction. At many family events, she acted oddly agitated and solemn. I could never tell whether she was intoxicated or high. One day on a ride home from school, my mom told me that my Aunt had committed suicide. Barb went to a motel in Little Falls, Minnesota, and drank a deadly mix of…
