...Fingerprinting Forensics Fingerprints are one of the most important things that link a suspect with a crime scene. Colin Beavan says, “Every human being carries with him his cradle to his grave certain physical marks which do not change their character, and by which he can always be identified - and that without shade of doubt or question. These marks are his signature, his physiological autograph, so to speak, and his autograph can not be counterfeited, nor can he disguise it or hide it away, nor can it become illegible by the wear and mutations of time. This signature is not his face- age can change that beyond recognition; it is not his hair, for that can fall out; it is not his height, for duplicates of that exist; it is not his form, for duplicates of that exist also, whereas this signature is this man’s very own- there is no duplicate of it among the swarming populations of the globe. This autograph consists of the delicate lines or corrugations with which Nature marks the insides of the hands and the soles of the feet” (Beavan 1). “A fingerprint expert can tell apart the marks of two digits more easily than he can differentiate two people’s faces “(Beavan 11). Fingerprints play a crucial role in criminal detection because they are unique, have a long history, and have many uses. To begin, Fingerprints are unique when it comes to crime detection. No two people have been found to have the same fingerprints—they are totally unique. There’s a one in a 64 billion chance that...

...The Book Kate skimmed through, with her fingers, through all the books in the library. She was in a hurry because she had to have this done before class started again. "I've looked at every one of the books in the library." I said out loud. "Shhh." The librarian took her index finger up to her lips. "Sorry" I apologized as I shrugged my shoulders. She soon went back at reading her book and i went back to complaining, in my head of course. I glimpsed at a stack of books I've never seen before. They must be the new books, I thought. I went over to have a good look at them. One of the bigger ones glittered in the sunlight. I tried to take it out to look at it but my fingers slipped so I tried again. The book seemed to be stuck. I stomped my foot in grief. I picked my one-month-old gum out of my mouth and stuck it behind my ear. Tried once again to tug the book out but just like me it was very stubborn and didn't want to leave. I felt something gushy on my shoe. I was losing my patience. I had no time for this. I gritted my teeth and lifted up my foot. Can you believe it, it was my GUM! I put my shoe back down on the ground. They can send me the bill when I have time. Aside from being brilliant and bright I was also stubborn, as I mentioned before. I tugged at it one more time. I had made up my decision that I was leaving with that book no matter what, even if I had to take the shelf with me! CREEK! I glanced up and saw as the bookcase went down, down, and did...

...important employee safety requirement in healthcare. There are crucial steps to be followed for a proper hand washing. I had a great experience at a hand washing short training where the trainer applied a starch powder and asked all of us to wash our hands.

The steps for a proper hand washing is as follows: Consider removing all watches, rings from both hands, mostly microorganisms hide under those things. 1. Wet both hands and add enough soap to cover all hand surfaces. 2. Rub hands palm to palm right dorsum over left dorsum with interlaced fingers and vice versa. 3.

... Healing is a process. Miranda is continuing to heal from her surgery. She is doing well during the daytime; however, at night she does have significant pain where her screws and rods were placed. I spoke with Dr. Neuro #7, and he said this was a normal part of the healing. With Miranda's EDS, healing takes longer for her body. Miranda had a big blessing last week. This summer, Micah and Miranda's orthodontist group had a competition among all their patients. Whoever traveled the farthest away from Johnson City, Tennessee or went to the most unique place would win an iPAD. The individual had to take a picture wearing the t-shirt provided by the orthodontist. Micah traveled to Hong Kong and China during the month of June. So, he had a picture taken with the t-shirt in front of a large China landmark. Micah was excited and hoped to win. We were all pulling for him. On Monday, September 5, Micah was contacted by his orthodontist, because he won an iPAD. Micah immediately picked up the iPAD and as soon as he walked through the door - he gave it to Miranda. She was thrilled beyond words and hugged her brother. Miranda has had so much fun with the iPAD. It was perfect timing. Micah had said several times, "There should be a way for Miranda to win, because all she endured through the summer." Well, he made a way for her. I am so proud of our son and his giving heart! Miranda has always been a Daddy's girl! Kevin, her father, and her are like two peas in a pod. They love to pick at each...

...CLIFFORD CHANCE: REPOTTING THE TREE | OPEOLUWA OSISANYA | EMBA 21 | GROUP 2 | ABP Understanding of the Problem Peter Charleton had a difficult task to: Convince his fellow managing and senior partners to support his campaign to sway the dozens of other partners of Clifford Chance LLP (one of the most successful law firms in the world) to relocate the London Headquarter offices from the central business district of London to a redeveloped business park at Canary Wharf. The current lease of the offices in London was due to expire in 4years and the firm was growing fast in clientele and employees exceeding the London office’s capacity hence space constraints. A decision is imminent. The organization needs to occupy and maintain offices that would portray a premium brand image and provide a conducive working environment for the employees. The relocation to Canary Wharf is a gamble. However, the Clifford Chance London offices is a historic and traditional corporate location with the best services, prestige and comfort associated with the central business district of London. Most critically, relocation away from Central London would affect proximity to key clients, courthouses, litigation offices all of where the most critical Clifford Chance businesses are conducted. Clifford Chance LLP’s Priorities Peter’s objectives are clearly evident from the problem statement. The firm needed to provide space that: Offered the highest quality work environment in order...

...Sensory Adaptation Experiments Task 1 Experiment 1: The sandpaper felt very coarse after rubbing my index fingers on it for the first time. I rated the coarseness at 6. The sandpaper feels less coarse after allowing my fingers to rest for two minutes and I rated the coarseness at 3. Experiment 2: The sugar water became less sweet after swishing it around my mouth for several seconds. The taste of the fresh water surprised me because it tasted salty. Experiment 3: I dipped my right hand in cold water and my left hand in hot water. At first the water in the bowl 1 felt very hot while the water in bowl 2 felt very cold. After a few seconds, the water temperatures felt normal. When I dipped my hands in the lukewarm water, I felt like I had dipped my right hand in hot water and my left hand in cold water. Task 2 I chose three experiments to demonstrate the concept of sensory adaptation. In the first experiment, I rubbed my index fingers over sandpaper for several times and rated its coarseness on a scale of 1-7. I allowed my fingers to rest for two minutes before rubbing them on the same sandpaper for the second time. The first time I rubbed the sandpaper, it felt very coarse, and I rated its coarseness at 6. However, the sandpaper felt less coarse the second time, and I rated its coarseness at 3. In the second experiment, I sipped sugar water and swished it in my mouth for several seconds before disposing it. The sugar water tasted less sweet as I swished it in my mouth...

...A Gap of Sky Youth is often associated with freedom, exploration, desire, and choices which concern the future of the individual. Being young is not always easy. The parents are now in the background and, therefore, young people enjoy the freedom which comes with the parents’ withdrawal. Although, having fun and being free is part of youth, there are responsibilities and expectations, and these must not be neglected. Though real freedom and responsibilities go together. The short story ‘A Gap of Sky’ by Anna Hope deals with issues which may be associated with being young in a big city trapped in an environment where drugs and “freedom” without responsibility are part of everyday life. The main character, Ellie, wakes up on a Monday afternoon realizing that she has to write an essay for the next day. She has been out all night, high on drugs and alcohol, and she is close to being kicked out of the university that she attends. In the short story Ellie goes through a mental journey, and the outcome of this is a new Ellie who doesn’t take everything for granted, and she realizes that life has so much to give her if she gives something back. Ellie is 19 years old and lives in the heart of London. She might live at a college as she has to walk down a corridor to get to the toilet. She studies at a university even though she doesn’t take it seriously. It was her parents who made her attend, and she has already had an extension. She doesn’t do her schoolwork and the...
