What is alcohol poisoning?
Alcohol poisoning is the body’s response to having too much alcohol in its system. Alcohol slows down the body’s functioning, including breathing and the gag reflex-meaning a person can choke on his or her vomit. If left untreated alcohol poisoning can lead to death.
If someone has had too much to drink, do you know what to look for and what to do?
Know the warning signs & symptoms of alcohol poisoning:
Consumed large quantities of alcohol (beer, wine, liquor) in a short span of time
Breathing slowly
Slurred, incoherent speech
Passing out- semi-conscious or unconscious
Nausea, vomiting, vomiting while sleeping
Cold, clamming, bluish or pale skin
Beds of eyes (inside red part of the eye) turn bluish
Very poor coordination, unsteady movement, slow reaction period
Know what to do: A PERSON WITH ALCOHOL POISONING CANNOT SLEEP IT OFF!
Call 911 and then tell them it is an alcohol overdose
You will not be able to tell how sick the person really is
Without medical help, the person will die
Stay with the victim. Do not leave them alone
If they are lying down, roll them on their side, so they do not choke if they vomit
Tell the emergency workers what and how much the victim drank or used
Every extra moment that you do not call 911 increases the chance of death for the victim
Turning Over A New Leaf December is infamous for thoughts of reflection and resolution. In a world where everything moves so quickly, it's an opportunity to pause. It's a chance to be still and be present. It's a time to consider your successes and achievements, your setbacks and failures. It's a chance to practice gratitude and mindful thinking. December instills a sense of hope for the coming year; a clean slate, a fresh start, a new beginning. The thrill and excitement of the unknown -- of possibility -- fills the air and thoughts are infused with the undetermined road that lies ahead. (www.huffingtonpost.com/timetoreflect) Why do we make New Year’s resolutions? A New Year's resolution is a tradition, most common in the Western Hemisphere but also found in the Eastern Hemisphere, in which a person makes a promise to do an act of self- improvement or something slightly nice, beginning from New Year's Day. (www.health.com/health/gallery.html) A resolution is a decision to do or not do something in order to accomplish a personal goal or break a habit. It comes at a time when people look back at the past year and make an effort to improve themselves as the new year begins.
What New Year’s resolution will you undertake in 2016?

The Ant Man Movie Review
by Liam Cromelin
The Ant Man movie was a good movie filled with a combination of science, comedy and Baskin- Robbins. In my opinion, you should add this to your “movies to see” list.
According to Peter Travers, movie reviewer, ..“The latest film franchise culled from Marvel's comic- book universe packs a ton of fun into a teeny package. Its low-key charm helps glide us over trouble spots in tone and pacing. Ant-Man stars Paul Rudd as standard-sized Scott Lang, a petty thief who gets to shrink at will and cause all sorts of trouble. Ant-Man may not have the hulking clout of the Avengers, but the little hero from Marvel's second-tier gets the job done. The movie version benefits from not being familiar to the point of frustration.” http://www.rollingstone.com/movies/reviews/ant- man-20150715
To sum up the plot a Cat Burglar named Scott Lang (Paul Rudd) teams up with Hank Pym (Michael Douglas) after stealing a suit that can shrink as small as a ant and grow back in a matter of seconds. But Hank Pym’s old intern Darren Cross (Corey Stoll) has invented a suit just like the Ant Mans.
The overall sum of the story is it’s a funny, science-y, and smartly planned movie with great actors.
