...Research critique Name of student Name of professor Date The purpose of the study was to determine whether managers who take alcohol perform below standard the following day as a result of a hangover. The idea was out of a past research that had shown that there is a considerable underperformance by managers who consume considerable amounts of alcohol (Streufert et al., 1141, 1995). The authors came up with only one hypothesis. The hypothesis was that complex decision-making by persons who consume a moderate amount if alcohol does not get impaired by hangover resulting from the previous day drinking. The researchers concluded that alcohol hangover do not affect the level of decision making though it might affect the sharpness of managers in their offices (Streufert et al., 1141, 1995). The authors used a non-random sampling method. The participants of the study did it on a voluntary basis without any other mode of participation approach. An advertisement appeared in the newspaper that called for voluntary participants. The approach may be the explanation for the small number of participants. To this effect, a total of 21 participants participated in the process (Streufert et al., 1141, 1995). The managers who participated had a minimum experience of 2 years on the job and were below forty-six years of age. The sample size is small compared to the number of managers in the positions and also the number of people who drink. A wider scope could have been identified to...

...themselves, or their passengers; but to all other drivers on the road. Unfortunately, some drivers choose to be negligent and drive under the influence. Which most of the time results in car accident fatalities, and can have major effects on the family or families affected by the incident. Although you probably think it could never happen to you, experts say that everyone has a 40% chance of being in a car crash involving alcohol use sometime in their life. It is wrong, irresponsible, and wastes many lives. There is nothing positive that can come out of drunk driving. There are many consequences that can result in a person driving under the influence. For example your driving record can be greatly affected, such as your license being revoked. Or you may have to pay an excessive amount of money for fines that you are charged with, starting at about five hundred dollars to one thousand dollars, depending on how many DUI convictions you have. If arrested for drunk driving, you will have to take a chemical test to get a more accurate estimate of your Blood Alcohol Concentration. You are required by the Implied consent Law to take the chemical test. If you refuse to take this test, your driver’s license will be suspended and you will be hit with yet another DUI fine. Also as part of your DUI fines, you will have to attend DUI School. The length of time you have to attend the school depends on how high your BAC was. The higher you’re BAC, the longer you must attend the DUI School. In...

Circumstantial evidence may support actual knowledge but can not support subjective knowledge. How much must a person need to drink to become intoxicated. Depends on size and metabolism. Is there a drink of any size that can make any size person drunk. No. You don’t think an experienced bartender would know I don’t care what size of guy he is or slow his metabolism is. If I serve him 4-6 shots and a beer in 30 minutes not matter how big, he is going to be drunk. Yes your honor there is no test to determine visible intoxication based on the amount consumed. Didn’t your client hand out a chart to its customers that shows blood alcohol level based on weight? Yes the evidence of the chart should show constructive knowledge of the fact of intoxication but will not show visible intoxication. The statute requires that level of intoxication be shown visibly to the bartender to recognize obvious visual intoxication. If the statute said the bartender should have known, then Mrs. White...

...shooting eventually stops and you escape with only a few minor wounds. You go back to camp and tell your comrades about your near-death experience. At this point you are still on edge and need help calming down. A drink of alcohol would do just the trick. However, you are just an 18 year old adult and not a 21 year old adult so you cannot legally consume alcohol yet. But don’t worry, you can still fight and die for your country. How can we possibly send 18 year olds to war, but not allow them to drink alcohol? To adults under the age of 21, alcohol is seen as a forbidden fruit. Since they cannot legally have it, they want it that much more. So when they are granted an opportunity to drink, they do so in a dangerous way. This binge drinking is where many alcohol related injuries come from, and what must be decreased. According to our laws, an 18 year old has enough maturity and judgment to drive a car, sign a legally binding contract, perform jury duty, and vote. Why shouldn’t they be able to decide if they want a drink or not? The drinking age should be lowered to the age of majority, which at this time, is 18. This decrease in the drinking age will allow young adults to safely consume alcohol in regulated environments. In turn, this will decrease the risk of alcohol-related injuries that result from unsupervised drinking. When a person turns 18 they are treated like adults, but with this new policy, they will truly be adults. First we must examine how the drinking age got set at...

...behind the wheel of an automobile and drive home, he endangers everyone on the road. This one decision, which may not seem important at the time, can have a crucial impact . When the choice whether or not to drive under the influence of alcohol faces a person, he often does not realize the consequences of his actions, and therefore makes an extremely uneducated decision. Many people believe that increasing fines for drunk driving offenders will play a significant part in the cutting down of driving under the influence. However, while stiffer DUI laws will look affective on paper, they will not make a substantial step in the fight against drunk driving. The only benefit of increased drunk driving fines goes to the law enforcement agency that collects the fines. Because the majority of DUI stops happen to individuals who do not believe that they have become drunk, a person who chooses to drive does not even consider the fine that he may receive, no matter the amount. If an intoxicated person believes that he has the ability to drive home safely, a new law passed by state representatives will not stop them. A state increasing its DUI fines, will not make the police notice a decline in the amount of drunken driving stops, nor a decreased amount of alcohol related accidents. The only change that would come from such an increase would come in a boost in state government funds pouring in from DUI offenders. While the fight against drunk driving seems to have no end, many other solutions...

...Running Head: Factors Affecting Highway Safety Silent Killers: Non-Conventional Factors That Affect Highway Safety Khris Downey Harding University Abstract At some point traffic safety will affect everyone. During his or her lifetime each individual will be a driver, passenger, or pedestrian. Modern day society is one dominated by the automobile. Motor vehicle accidents are the number one cause of death for people ages 1-34 (U.S. Department, 2002). In the year 2000 there were 41,611 traffic fatalities in the United States (U.S. Department, 2000) or approximately 2 fatalities every 20 minutes. During the time necessary to read this chapter two or three individuals will die in traffic related accidents. Research Design Over the past several decades, motor vehicle transportation has become the most popular mode of transportation in the United States. For the estimated 282,124,631 (U.S. Census Bureau) people living in the United States there are 221, 475, 173 registered vehicles (National Highway), that is 78.5 registered vehicles per 100 people. It is no wonder traffic safety is a growing concern throughout the United States. Americans are becoming increasingly sensitive to the dangers associated with motor vehicles. Automobile safety features are top considerations for many American automobile buyers. In a recent national survey (Home and Away) 83% of automobile buyers listed safety...

...Rebecca Walker Forensic Toxicology CRJ 311 Dawn George 4/22/2013 History Forensic science is defined as the application of science to the law. There are different types of forensic science, and each plays an integral part in the criminal justice system. Forensic biology usually involved DNA testing and its results. Forensic anthropologists examine human remains that have become skeletons in an attempt to determine how long the remains have been in a location and to try to determine a possible cause of death. Forensic toxicology falls into the category of forensic chemistry. Forensic toxicologists study toxins, drugs, poisons, alcohol, and other things found in the blood or tissues of crime victims or perpetrators. Forensic toxicologists study the blood and tissues of living people as well as deceased persons. The rapid advancement of technology in the last century and, in particular, the last three decades, has helped forensic scientists solve many crimes, even those that had been cold for decades. Technology is quickly changing and improving the methods by which crimes can be solved. The first evidence of scientific methods being used to identify people occurred in China in 700BC. Chinese artists used fingerprints to identify pieces of art they had produced. Of course, there was not computerized system to file or categorize these fingerprints. However, this is the first known instance of fingerprints being used for identification purposes. Clearly, things...

...22231723680404. 121. Explain the differences between solving log31x - 12 = 4 and log31x - 12 = log3 4. When solving log31x - 12 = 4 one needs to write it in the form of bc=M. To do this we do the following; logbM=c means bc=M. 1) log31x - 12 = 4 2) 34=x-12 3) 81=x-12 4) x=93 In the case of log31x - 12 = log3 4, since the log is the same on both sides of the equation the will be omitted. The new equation would be; 1x-12=4. Then solve as normal. Add 12 to 4 to get 16, leaving 1x, which is just x and you have x=16. 122. In many states, a 17% risk of a car accident with a blood alcohol concentration of 0.08 is the lowest level for charging a motorist with driving under the influence. Do you agree with the 17% risk as a cutoff percentage, or do you feel that the percentage should be lower or higher? Explain your answer. What blood alcohol concentration corresponds to what you believe is an appropriate percentage? Using the given equation to find...

...travel and entertainment related. I use Google Maps, Yelp, Camera and Siri on a daily basis. I find myself using these applications more throughout the day, on my way to work, when deciding what or where to eat and also when out with friends. The most recent applications that I started using more frequently now are Around Me and Breathometer. Around Me is an application that quickly finds nearby Point Of Interests such as restaurants, hotels, theaters, hospitals and much more. I like using this application when I go to areas that I am not familiar with and need to find a place to eat or stop. Breathometer is a device that lets users measure their blood alcohol content using their iOS and Android smartphones. It plugs into your phone’s audio jack and turns your smartphone into a portable breathalyzer. It obtains your current blood alcohol level by simply blowing into the device, it then learns how long before you are “back to zero,” and also allows you to call a local cab directly from the app. This app gives you the power to make smarter decisions when drinking and being responsible. 2) I know that Privacy Policies are put in place to protect the consumer, but are they really? I attempted to read the terms for a recent application a few weeks ago and about half way through the terms, I stopped reading. The amount of words and language they use causes any reader to lose interest half way and just accept the terms and think, “ohh what could possibly happen? What are they really...
