Don’t try to ‘Drown Your Sorrows’

Written by alex on Friday, February 3rd, 2012 in Alcohol Abuse.


Treating depression can sometimes be the most arduous task in a person’s life. This illness is debilitating to a person and can lead to drastic and dangerous forms of treatment. Many who are depressed will turn to alcohol to treat their ailing depressive thoughts and feelings. Alcohol is a drug classified as a depressant , which means it has a depressing effect on the central nervous system and may cause slowed pulse, poor concentration, confusion, fatigue, impaired coordination, memory , judgement, respiratory depression and death. Our service project will be coordinated with the “Happy Hour” program which takes place on the Cook Campus, at Rutgers University. “Happy Hour” is an informative session where students can discuss matters which interest them, specifically the effects of alcohol on depression. This paper will outline the general facts on depression, as well as give a clear understanding on alcohol abuse. At the end, one should have a clearer understanding as to why depression should never be treated with alcohol.

Metallica – No Remorse [Cliff 'Em All (Part 10)]

Written by alex on Tuesday, January 31st, 2012 in Alcohol Abuse.


Cliff ‘Em All is a compilation of video footage released as a tribute to Metallica’s late bassist Cliff Burton. Its title is derived from Metallica’s first album, Kill ‘Em All. Burton was killed in a tour bus accident on September 27, 1986, at the age of 24, near Ljungby, Sweden during the European leg of their Damage Inc. tour. The homevideo contains also a performance with Dave Mustaine on March 19, 1983, shortly before his release for heavy drugs and alcohol abuse. The video is a retrospective on the 3 and a half years that Cliff Burton was in Metallica, presented as a collection of bootleg footage shot by fans, some professional filming and TV shots that were never used and some of his best bass solos, personal photos and live concerts. Photos and narrations by the band (Ulrich, Hetfield and Hammett drinking beer) are placed between songs which focus on Burton before fading into a title card of a performance. The video ends with the melodic interlude of “Orion” as pictures of Burton are shown. With this video, the band tries to show the unique personality and style he had. While ostensibly the film focuses on Burton, it also has given fans a rare glimpse of Metallica’s less-documented early career. This contrasts sharply with the ‘Metallica business’ represented in the feature film Some Kind of Monster. Detroit, April 4, 1986 – “supporting Ozzy” Shot from the left of the stage.

This is a school project to interpret how the story physically went for Blanche and Allan in their younger days.
