I chose the Chemical‚ Biological‚ Nuclear Agents and Incidents regarding HAZMAT topic because this is really interesting to me since I was in Iraq at the beginning and we had to carry a full face respirator along with a Class B chemical suit with us at all times.

When the body is under the influence of a depressant all bodily functions become slower. Miss Quinlan was under the influence of not only one depressant drug but two‚ alcohol and tranquilizers. Taking these depressants together slowed her bodily functions enough to cease them. I believe that the appropriate measures were taken to save her life. There was no such thing as Naloxone around in 1975 to reverse the effects of the drugs she had taken earlier in the day. If I had a family member in a similar

A heart monitor beeps in the background; a ventilator hums next to a seemingly sleeping patient. This patient is sustained by the ventilator and has no brain activity. Are they alive or dead?

After reading "Coping with Stress: An Ethnography of Firefighters” I believe Rubenstein completed an ethnography. Through his use of observation and the interviewing of an informant‚ the author gained insight into how some firefighters deal with stress. Rubenstein faced a few challenges: he couldn’t observe or experience the major causes of stress on firefighters. He couldn’t ride with the firefighters to a call or have firsthand observations of a fireman’s actions inside a burning building. He
