Bullet Points

Transcript: Rose of Sharon is Mrs. Joad's young daughter who is pregnant throughout their book and all the way to California. She is focused on caring for her baby and making sure it is happy. It is born dead, but it and the pregnancy symbolize several things in the course of the story. The turtle's struggle to cross the highway represent the Joad family's struggles to cross the U.S. to get to California. The road is an obstacle for the turtle much like it is for the Joads. The turtle's setbacks (Tom, getting hit) represents the Joads many obstacles that keep reappearing on their trip to California. When Tom lets it go after carrying it for miles, it turns around and heads right back on its path. This represents the Joad family's resilience and determination to survive and get to a better place. The Road The Turtle The Grapes of Wrath The road (Route 66) is the setting of the story. It is the basis of the Joads' journey and something that is always there. Without the road, they would not have hope for a prosperous future. Rose of Sharon & Pregnancy The story of the Joad family can be represented through the turtle, pregnancy, and the road. When the three are mashed together you end up with perseverance, determination, and a small sense of hope despite the continues knock downs they receive. They are constantly showing the qualities demonstrated by the three in their jorney to reach a better life in California. In the beginning of the story, a turtle is crossing the road when it is hit by a truck and is knocked off his path. However, it just gets up and continues to plod along. When Tom lets it go after carrying it for miles, it still is not discouraged; it keeps plodding along where it intended to go. By Ryan Quick, Sam Garrison and Gabe Bellavita The Story Rose of Sharon & Pregnancy The Turtle Rose of Sharon's pregnancy represents the hope that the Joad family holds throughout the story. They keep hoping they will find happiness and prosper in California, just as Rose of Sharon keeps hoping she will have a healthy baby. The baby being born dead represents the way that the Joads' hopes and dreams were crushed, one after another. The Joad's journey across the nation takes place on a Route 66 between Oklahoma and California. They pack everything they can onto a small truck and set out in hopes to find new life in California. The road drags on for hundreds of miles and is the only path for the Joads to take. The Road The Joad family travels across the U.S.A. with their good friend, Jim Casy After being driven out of Oklahoma by the bank, they set out on the long dusty road to California.

Transcript: Bullet p Simple lists The simple list format should be used to put lists of words/fragments of sentences into bullet points. When using this format, each point should start in lower case (unless a proper noun is being used) and the final point should end in a full stop. There are two options for introducing simple lists. Sentence/paragraph lists The sentence/paragraph list format should be used to put full sentences or paragraphs into bullet points. When full sentences are put into bullets, normal grammar rules for prose should be followed. In particular, and in contrast to simple lists, each sentence in the list should begin with a capital letter and end with a full stop. The introductory statement for a sentence/paragraph list should always be a grammatically complete sentence, ending in a colon. Option 2 If the introductory statement does not form a grammatically complete sentence, a colon should not be used. As part of its Red 100 Plan, Vodafone offers 100MB UK Internet 100 voice minutes unlimited texts ints As shown in the following examples, some operators impose more complicated or creative limitations: • T-Mobile UK restricts its unlimited texts so that users can only send messages to 200 different numbers per month. • In Spain, some of Telefonica's unlimited call packages only apply between 13:00 and 21:00. Option 1 If the introductory statement constitutes a grammatically complete sentence, a colon should be used. Instead, telcos should choose tools from the following options: • the open innovation toolkit • supply chain management • the open source community. This format should always be used after introductory phrases such as "as follows" and "the following."

L.A.S.T: Bullet points

Transcript: Incidence of LAST: Understanding the Context Unusual cardiovascular or neurological signs after local anaesthetic administration should raise suspicion of LAST. Risk factors include patient characteristics, site of block, type of local anaesthetic, and dosage. LAST incidence rates for epidural anaesthesia range from 1.2 to 11 per 10,000 anaesthetics. Peripheral nerve block LAST rates reported as 7.5 per 10,000 in 1997, 2.5 per 10,000 in 2004, and 9.8 per 10,000 in 2009. Incidence Rates for Epidural Anaesthesia LAST incidence rates for epidural anaesthesia range from 1.2 to 11 per 10,000 anaesthetic procedures. This highlights the variability in occurrences based on clinical practice and patient populations. Peripheral Nerve Block LAST Rates Over Time LAST rates for peripheral nerve blocks have fluctuated: 7.5 per 10,000 in 1997, decreasing to 2.5 in 2004, and rising again to 9.8 per 10,000 in 2009. Continuous monitoring and updated techniques can impact these rates. L.A.S.T: Local Anaesthesia Systemic Toxicity Incidence, Types, Risk Factors, Prevention and Management Strategies Dr. Umair Mansha Mechanisms of Toxicity LAST occurs via systemic absorption or accidental intravascular injection. Mechanisms remain unclear but involve disruption of ion channels and intracellular signaling in the heart and brain. Types of Toxicity Local toxicity includes allergic reactions, myotoxicity, and transient neurological symptoms. Systemic toxicity (LAST) primarily affects neurological and cardiovascular systems, with symptoms like seizures and cardiac arrest. Anaphylaxis is rare but more common with ester local anaesthetics. Methaemoglobinaemia can occur with prilocaine, especially in vulnerable populations. Risk factors Prevention and Management Strategies LA-related factors include type and dose of local anaesthetic. Bupivacaine has a lower CC/CNS ratio (2.0) compared to lidocaine (7.1), indicating higher risk of cardiovascular collapse. Patient-related factors include renal, liver, cardiac diseases, and age, which can increase toxicity risk. Preventions Pre-procedure assessment should evaluate risks and benefits of regional anaesthesia. Continuous monitoring of vital signs during the procedure is essential. Techniques like frequent aspiration and ultrasound guidance can reduce LAST risk. Clear labeling of catheters and ongoing monitoring post-procedure are crucial. Management Use of Intravenous Lipid Emulsion (ILE) ILE is used as an emergency therapy for LAST, with Intralipid being the most studied formulation. The lipid sink hypothesis suggests ILE draws LA off receptor sites, aiding recovery. Dosing regimens include boluses and continuous infusion to prevent recurrence of LAST. Ongoing research is needed to determine optimal dosing and potential uses in other conditions. Immediate recognition of LAST is vital for effective management. If cardiac arrest occurs, initiate CPR and administer intravenous lipid emulsion (ILE). Seizures should be treated promptly with benzodiazepines or propofol. Follow-up monitoring is necessary to assess recovery and detect complications. Conclusion LAST is rare but potentially fatal; prevention and immediate recognition are key to management. Lipid emulsion therapy has significantly improved outcomes in LAST cases.
