American Hippies and British “freaks” American Hippies and British “freaks” brought about a counter-culture that quickly became prevalent during the 1960s. Most of these individuals shared a common interest in recreational drugs as a way of escaping from the rat race of the consumerist lifestyle. Their alternative lifestyle saw them draw their attention towards aspects of Indian classical music and Eastern spirituality. Their attraction to Indian classical music and Eastern spirituality was simply because of the allure of the bond between religion and musical experience that was present in Indian classical music and Eastern spirituality. Also, American Hippies and British “freaks” were attracted to the idea widening different areas of consciousness, and this made the aspects of Indian classical music and Eastern spirituality all the more alluring. From my perspective, the American Hippies and British “freaks” were guilty of cultural appropriation. They appropriated religious symbols such as the Om sign, which was common to Hinduism and removed it from its original context. They also exploited cultural practices such as the use of hallucinogenic drugs, which were initially intended to help…
Validation of Quick-Sepsis Organ Failure Assessment (Q-SOFA) In Prehospital Care The Third International Consensus Definitions for Sepsis Task Force has played a critical role in defining sepsis, providing guidelines for its identification in the in-patient setup as well as appropriate management procedures. By defining sepsis as “life-threatening organ dysfunction to a dysregulated host response to infection,” the task force recommended the use of qSOFA for easy identification of patients since 70% of those with 2 or 3 qSOFA scores were highly likely to die if no appropriate management was instituted in time (1). However, some studies carried out in the recent past have invalidated the scoring approach and opted to use other methods to identify patients at risk of dying from sepsis or severe sepsis, leading to organ failures such as the SOFA, LODS, and SIRS criteria. Hence, the literature review provides a critical analysis of the QSOFA score from literature with the view of revalidating it as the quickest and most reliable bedside tool for preventing the late diagnosis of organ failure. A significant challenge that faces the qSOFA…
How Electric Skateboards Work Quick question, electric skateboards vs. steep hill, Who wins? Once in a while, riders will encounter steep and challenging terrain. In such cases, who wins? Is it possible your electric skateboard will handle the amount of gravity, or will you have to give in to all sorts of harsh terrains? To help settle the whole issue, there are a couple of underlying factors that will affect an electric skateboard while on a hill climb. Depending on these factors, which will vary depending on the brand, riders can evaluate and decide a winner. Sounds fair, right? Underlying factors Motor power While on a steep hill, your electric skateboard motor power is directly competing with the gravitational force. In most cases, motor power goes hand in hand with the engine size. A two thousand watt motor is expected to output more power compared to a typical fifty-watt motor.

The United States Senate passed on Thursday, a resolution, which limits the powers of the White House to command a military intervention in Iran after weeks of war tensions between the two countries. But as only eight Republican senators supported the bill, American President Donald Trump will be able to veto it after passing through the Chamber of Deputies. The resolution, proposed by Democrat Tim Kaine, “instructs the president to end the use of the United States Armed Forces for hostilities against the Islamic Republic of Iran or any part of its government or armed forces, unless explicitly authorized by a declaration of war [which must be approved by Congress] or specific authorization.” While Trump and other presidents “must always have the ability to defend the United States from imminent attack, the executive power to initiate war stops there,″ Kaine said. “An offensive war requires a congressional debate and vote.″ He added. “When…
