Bloodstain pattern analysis (BPA) is the interpretation of bloodstains at a crime scene in order to recreate the actions that caused the bloodshed. Analysts examine the size, shape, distribution, and location of the bloodstains to draw about what happened. BPA uses principles of biology (behavior of blood), physics (cohesion, capillary action and velocity) and mathematics (geometry, distance, and angle) to assist investigators in answering questions like: • From where did the blood originate from

Prepared for Biological Attacks Biological weapons are being developed and pursued secretly in other countries by either individuals or groups for the purpose to incapacitate or kill humans, livestocks, or crops. In today’s world America has ignored, overlooked, and undervalued the threat of biological attacks. America has experienced biological attacks in the past but is America prepared for it? America may have experienced biological attacks, but America is not prepared for biological attacks. The

suffer as a result of it. Another thing that must be examined is the availability of medicine According to historyofvaccines.org, U.S. agencies conducted a simulation of a biological attack using smallpox as the weapon, in which serious weaknesses were exploited, one of them being that there would be a shortage of vaccines(“Biological Weapons”), which is only part of the problem surrounding medicine against bioterrorism. According to the article, “One challenge to licensing vaccines for response to bioweapon

2010). A more precise way of describing WMD terrorism is by addressing the weapon by the appropriate classification, in order to understand the significance of the type of weapon.. Throughout this paper, these weapons will be classified by chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear (CBRN). These weapon types have different protocols, which makes it imperative that each weapon is adequately understood in terms of probability and the potential impact (Mauroni, 2010). Generally, all weapons are low probability

powerful country was brought to its knees, by a force that would be later identified as the Taliban. Imagine if the terrorists who hijacked the planes would have had a chemical or biological weapon they used during the attack. It would have cause many more deaths. The ability for the enemy to get and use chemical, biological or weapons of mass destruction is a very real threat. Every day we need to be vigilant to our enemy’s movements and never allow our guard to be down again. October 7, 2001 less

The nature vs. nurture issues is the most important study of human development for many reasons. In fact, both issues play an important role in human development over time. One main reason why nature vs. nurture is an important study in psychology today is because of its developmental traits. Traits are characteristics inherited from your parents. Also, a trait can be something that is past down from generation, such as a person’s personality. The author stated many different interactions between

sulfur dioxide when they sieged Athenian cities (Freedmen 1). Now bad guys can get their hands on biological and chemical weapons and they need to be stopped. The United States could increase border security, have better security or have vaccines and antibiotics. If the US could beef up border security, have better security and better dispose of chemicals then they could not only stop chemical and biological attacks but could stop other kinds of attacks. Chemical terrorism is the use of natural or

for this week’s discussion falls squarely within the biological warfare threat and was chosen based on its past usage and resilience to environmental variables that may otherwise degrade the effectiveness of other agents when disseminated from a likely terrorist device. The anthrax spore is a robust organism, capable of causing a high percentage of fatalities in those who inhale it and is proven attractive to those seeking to employ biological weapons against America. The anthrax

The Hot Zone is a true story about the outbreaks of the Ebola virus at a monkey facility in Reston, Virginia. The beginning of the book takes place in Kenya in 1980, where Preston comes across the body of Charles Monet. Charles was a French expatriate who worked on a sugar factory in western Kenya. In the book Preston describes Charles in all of the phases of the virus. It was very gory and at some points, hard to read on. The book gives background information on the virus that killed Charles Monet

Any plan involving a potentially hazardous atmosphere such as those of biological agents used to spread infectious diseases should include proper assessment of hazard and responder’s exposure potential before treating and assisting victims. First emergency responders must first protect themselves from all potential hazards before
