If I had a dollar for every time Ralph Himmelsbach has been mentioned in my research, I would be a billionaire. By far, Ralph Himmelsbach is the most knowledgeable person on the D.B. Cooper subject in history, and his brain is a great resource to investigators. He has been involved in the Cooper case since day one, and, despite retiring, shows no signs of stopping his search for D.B. Cooper. So, when the wisest man on the subject says Kenny Christiansen is not D.B. Cooper, that means he is not D.B. Cooper Kenneth Christiansen, as the quote mentioned, was suspected of the hijacking post-mortem by his own brother. They were both left-handed, ond of bourbon, and heavy smokers; but these descriptions are not rare by any standards. Besides the
Ralph Erdmann was a pathologist. A forensic pathologist focuses on determining the cause of death by examining a corpse. Erdmann attended many schools, including: George Washington University, University of Texas, University of Michigan, and National University of Mexico. He received his doctorate in medicine at the National University of Mexico, in Mexico City. He specialized in forensic pathology at John Hopkins. On average, he performed about 400 autopsies a year in West Texas. In total, he had conducted more than 3,000 autopsies. The years of service he has completed it unknown, be he has been going at it for a while. He was admired for his eagerness to tailor his autopsy findings to the law enforcements needs, such as putting alcohol in the blood.
Dr. Roger Fife is liked by the Hmong because, in their words, he doesn’t cut. He is not highly regarded by the other doctors for many reasons. I believe Dr. Fife is generally a good doctor I would rate him about a 7 on a scale of 1-10 because he listens to his patients and takes his patients’ culture into consideration, but he does have certain weaknesses that makes him less than desirable to me. I believe he genuinely cares about his patients. He is a doctor that does not force certain medical practices because “it’s their body.” I believe every physician has their strengths and weaknesses. Dr. Fife has good strengths that makes him very well liked in the Hmong community. He builds his Hmong clientele by listening to his patients wants and
It was not until I read Carol S. Dweck’s “Brainology” that I realized I had a fixed mindset. I care more about getting a 4.0 than actually understanding what I am being taught and I also hate struggling. These habits are part of having a fixed mindset. It was after reading this article that I discovered I could change my mindset and be successful. Having a fixed mindset means that you believe that you and others only have a certain amount of intelligence. A growth mindset on the other hand, is believing that everyone has the ability to reach a higher level of intelligence through effort and hardwork.

Witnesses on the day claimed to see the shots fired from the sixth story window of the Depository. Oswald was one of the few working in the building on that day, which raises even more suspicion about him. Oswald had access to all the materials needed to kill the President. The fact that Oswald killed the police officer questioning him speaks volumes about his guilt as well.

In this essay, the topic ‘The Discipline of Psychology does not stand still, but adapts and develops’ will be analyzed. This essay will compare the various approaches towards human thinking and behavior used by psychologists throughout the discipline of psychology and how they have altered over time. The first topic that will be analyzed is psychology in the mid 1800s & early 1900s in which spiritualism was prevalent, and its take on how the human mind and behaviors worked. The second topic that will be discussed is psychology in the late 1900s to 21st Century and its more scientific method will be contrasted to that of the late 1800s & 1900s.
On November 24, 1971 D.B. Cooper was made famous for his crime of hijacking a plane. D.B. Cooper was never found and so never arrested either. Many people are still working on the case today! Some people try to do similar acts like D.B. Cooper.
The group of Americans, as mentioned above, have come to be called the 9/11 Truthers; part of the truth movement. They believe that the attacks on 9/11 were an inside job with help of government organizations. They aim to use the flawed stories and overwhelming evidence to support their side of the issue. The first issue I want to deal with is the hole that was made when the Boeing 757 hit the pentagon. The 9/11 debunkers (people who believe the contrary to the 9/11 Truthers) say that the plane did indeed hit the pentagon and have both pictures and videos to prove this point. They said that there was only small debris left of the plane because the rest of the plane was vaporized. They have gone on record saying that they have interviewed all of the clean up crew that day and that they indeed see a plane. The debunkers have also said that the plane bounced off the ground before it hit the pentagon.

Radiologic technologists, also known as radiographers, have the job of performing diagnostic imaging examinations; among many other tasks. The typical radiographer must be able to interact with patients by taking their medical history, administering oral or injected contrast media, explaining procedures and safety measures, and observing and monitoring them. Radiologic technologists also have to correctly position and immobilize their patients for examination; along with assisting patients that are unable to move (i.e. disabled, sick, injured patients). If a radiologist finds any abnormalities while handling a patient they must report it to the physician. Along with that, a radiologic technologist must be capable of operating all equipment required for the job including x-ray generators, ultrasound scanners, and fluoroscopes. They must be able to use radiation safety guidelines and proper protection materials to keep everyone (including themselves) safe and comply with government regulations. A radiologic technician has to process and review film and other information to evaluate whether or not it is satisfactory for diagnostic purposes and
Heinrich Himmler was the cruelest men and was one of the reasons over six million Jewish people lost their lives during the holocaust. Heinrich Himmler was the person that came up with the “final solution”. The final solution was code word for killing all of the Jewish people in Europe. Heinrich Himmler being the second most powerful man in Germany, just being under Hitler himself, he was able to be in charge of the cruel SS branch of the Nazi party. His responsibility was to keep the Nazi empire safe and to ensure that the Final Solution was being put to use. (ushmm1)
The birth of psychology was in December of 1879, at Germanys University of Leipzig (Myers, 2014, p.2). In 1960, Wilhelm Wundt and Edward Titchener defines psychology as “the science of mental health” (Myers, 2014, p.4). However, two provocative American psychologists, John Watson and B.F Skinner, redefined psychology in 1920. They redefined psychology as “the scientific study of observable behavior” (Myers, 2014, p.4). The problem arose when psychologists realized people could not observe feeling or thought so they needed to come up with a new definition for psychology. We define psychology today as “the science of behavior and mental processes” (Myers, 2014, p.4). Psychology includes many subfields such as human development, social behavior,
As a naïve kid growing up in India, all I wanted to be was a cricket player. I would carelessly spend hours in the 110-degree heat of New Delhi playing cricket with my friends, as our mothers would yell at us to come inside to protect us from the heat. I would wake up at the crack of dawn and practice before school; I would practice during any spare time I could find. During those times the idea of practicing medicine seemed farfetched. The concept of becoming a doctor did not cross my mind until I started volunteering at the Hinsdale Hospital E.R. during high school. I continued working at the Hinsdale Hospital not necessarily because I saw it as future career but because I was fascinated by everything around me. I made beds, transported samples back and forth from the lab, and other seemingly mundane tasks. I also talked to as many patients as I could and I slowly realized that it was not really small talk; it meant something. It meant something to me because I liked being a part of their healing process in a humble way. I would listen in
