Purpose: The purpose of this experiment is to learn how to use a compound microscope and an oil immersion lens while observing prepared bacterial slides. Additionally, it will be necessary to prepare slides so as to observe bacterial cultures from yogurt as well as to observe the composition of blood (i.e. red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets).…

On April 18, 2013 at 6:30pm, in ballroom 250 at the Student Union Building; I went to one amazing, interesting speech on Blood Stain Analysis. Paulette Sutton is from Memphis, Tn. She is one of the best forensic investigators, which is first called to observe a blood scene. As for her job is to go to a murder scene and investigate how a murder, homicide, or even a fight occurred according to how the blood splattered, or dripped.…
When investigating a crime scene, many different variables are taken into account such as fingerprints, any other forms of DNA, or even clues left behind at a crime scene. Even looking at blood splatter, the forensic technician can conclude an estimated guess to the weapon used, the height of the person, whether it was foul play or not, and even if it was passive patterns or projected patterns. Blood splatter analysis becomes important when recreating a crime scene (Peschel). Bloodstain pattern analysis comes into play; and that is the interpretation of bloodstains at a crime scene in order to recreate the actions that caused the bloodshed (“A Simplified Guide”).…
In recent years, the number of Pit bull attacks have incited massive debate over the treatment of the breed in Victoria. Animal bloodlust by Nick Papps advocates for the complete ban on the dogs by implementing a belligerent and malicious tone, criticizing the government’s lack of action, and calling for immediate change. Graeme Smith’s Ban the breeding undertakes a more logical tone to acknowledge the misuse of pit bulls and providing alternatives to simply banning their presence in Victoria all together. These are contrasted by Killing pit bulls is illogical by Colin Muir. He, with a direct and aggrieved tone, denounces the reactionary legislation placed by the government. Muir instead blames the owners for the mal treatment of the dogs.…
In novels it is common for the concept of love or sexuality to be present. This idea can present itself in many forms, and in both Jerzy Kosinski’s book Being There and Angela Carter’s book The Bloody Chamber this is illustrated. In both books the concept of love and sexuality can be seen in both dark and light contexts, with highly varying situations. In Being There and The Bloody Chamber the presence of genuine love, a lack of genuine love, and sexuality are all explored.…
3. Why do you think forensic scientists study bloodstain patterns? What can be learned from them? Blood patterns can be used to determine what direction the blood was traveling and the spot where it came from.…

In the short story “Blood” by Zdravka Evtimova, characterization is a key element to the message, and mood it conveys to the reader. Early in the story, we meet a customer who walks into the store, and the author describes her in a very menacing way. “Her face looked frightened and gray. She approached me, her arms trembling, unnaturally pale, resembling two dead white fish in the dark.”Pg.1 This quote really set the mood for the beginning of the story. It also made the woman seem very desperate, and gave the reader a creepy chill, helping them to keep engaged. Another quote that displays characterizations roll in this story was at the beginning of the book, describing the main character; the shopkeeper. “Few customers visited my shop, perhaps three of four people a day. They watch the animals in the cages, but seldom buy them. The room is narrow and there is no place for me behind the counter, so I usually sit on my old moth eaten chair behind the door…soon I’ll have to close my shop and I’ll be sorry about it for the sleepy, gloomy, smell of formalin has always given me peace, and an odd feeling of home. “Pg. 1 This quote was perhaps one of the most informatics of the story, and gave reason to the shopkeeper’s bizarre, later actions. When it says in the quote “There is no place for me behind the counter” I believe Zdravka is trying to symbolize how the shopkeeper seems to not fit in society, and I was able to make this assumption based off of the characterization about the shopkeeper throughout the story. In conclusion I think there are many reasons why characterization is needed in writing. It gives more sense to the story, and tells us more about the characters. This draws in the reader, and helps them to feel more like a part of the story. If it wasn’t for characterization I believe blood would not be the same quality of a story that it…
