Combating Drinking and Driving with the Breathalyzer
The concept of the breathalyzer was being worked on well before the 1930s. The principle of the breathalyzer is also fairly simple. What a breathalyzer does is it measures a person’s Blood Alcohol Content by analyzing that person’s breath.
Even as early as 1974 researchers knew that a person’s breath contained alcohol in some relation to their blood alcohol level. By 1927 research was conducted by Emile Bogen that showed that 2 litres of expired air contained just a bit more alcohol than 1 cc of urine. In his research Bogen collected expired air in a football.
Serious attempts were subsequently made to perfect a device capable of conducting reliable roadside breath tests. By the early 1900s drinking and driving had already become a very serious issue.
The first such device intended for use by police was called the “drunkometer”. It was developed in 1938 by a college professor called Harger. In fact the drunkometer was essentially a portable laboratory. The subject breathed into a balloon inside the machine, and then this sample was pumped through a solution that would change color if there was alcohol in the air sample. The more the color changed, the more alcohol was present in the breath, and therefore the higher the blood alcohol level.
Recently breathalyzer technology has been taken to new lengths with the development of the device called the breath key. This device fits on a driver’s key chain and is about the size of a typical key fob or key chain remote. The breath key was designed by breath alcohol testing specialist Ed Gollar, who also developed the breath alcohol ignition interlock systems used by courts in almost 40 states in the US. The breath key was designed as a personal breath alcohol testing device that is small, affordable and reliable.

Grasp the game of golf and shoot low scores instantly
Let’s have a look at the basics of the golf swing and what I mean by the pre-swing before you start spending to much time at the driving range without improving your golf swing or golf score.
You can’t afford to get the grip wrong – if you do it will cause the ball to travel to places where it will be impossible for you to par,or birdie the hole. An improper grip will cause the club head to impact the ball at the wrong angle of attack. A poor grip may also negatively affect your swing and balance because we can tend to compensate for a poor grip by wrongly adjusting our alignment and shoulder turn. For a right handed player, can you not see any of your left hand knuckles as your look down on your grip? Is the tension of your grip too tight or too loose? Are you not holding the club in your fingers but instead in the palm of your hands? These are questions you should be asking yourself.
Setting Up to hit the golf ball – Your stance to the ball can ruin your golf shots if you get it wrong! An incorrect address will have you hitting the ball to the wrong places to improve your golf score! At address you may be too close to the ball therefore inhibiting your swing, too far from the ball causing you to stretch. You may slouch over the ball too much. You may even dribble over the ball but if your address isn’t correct then you may as well dribble over your scorecard. How far do you stand from the ball? Are your feet, shoulders, hips and club face aligned to the target? Is your balance correct- the weight of your body should be more on the balls and middle of your feet rather than your heels. Is your body weight evenly balanced between your left and right feet? Ask yourself these questions.
Your Ball Position in stance – Your ball position is so critical to the destiny of your shot! Quite simply if the ball is too far forward in your stance or too far back then not only does that induce a slice or a push but can cause the rest of your swing and your stance to over compensate and therefore go horribly wrong. For a right handed player are you adjusting your ball position correctly in relation to your left heel and distance from your body as you go up or down in club? Ask yourself these questions.
How to Drive the Ball Long and Straight – Last but not least you need to learn how to drive the golf ball. Remember that the driver swing is just an extension of the shorter swings like the wedges. Be sure to stay loose and keep a light grip as this will help to promote a relaxed and tension free body which helps to promote the mechanics of the golf swing. Be sure to get the right kind of driver for your swing. If you have a high club head speed over 115 mph then go for a stiff shaft flex and a loft under 9 degrees. If your club head speed is less than 100 mph then stick with the regular flex with a loft greater than 10 degrees.
