road deck. In the case of extremely long suspension bridges however, the deck truss is not enough, and engineers need to include more aerodynamic truss systems and diagonal support cables in order to protect against torsion (Robert Lamb and Michael Morrissey 10/6/17). Arch and Beam bridges are mostly immune to this force due to their rigid structure and truss system for beam bridges. Shear is more similar to compression than it is to tension. It occurs when two forces act in opposing direction on the

that greatly impacts our most vulnerable population. Children who are born into poverty are automatically placed at a disadvantage going into school. Before they are even in the school system they are achieving less than their richer counterparts (Morrissey, Hutchison, & Winsler, 2014). The academic achievement gap between students of low income and higher income is staggering, by implementing solutions that address the needs of transportation and meals as well as offering therapy programs and investing

Louise Erdrich’s two literary works, Love Medicine and The Years of My Birth, are significant to the narrators and the characterization, while providing her readers a sense of connection between the two stories. Mainly, the narrators at the time of event, involving religion, culture, love and loss, and the lack of initiating reality, demonstrate the impact and effectiveness of each character they interact with. The narrators that Erdrich created and used in the story experience and unconsciously

corrections (Lynch et al., 2012). The presence of intersecting co-occurring disorders and trauma may negative impact treatment outcomes and retention rates for women in community corrections (Tull, Gratz, Coffey, Weiss, & McDermott, 2013; Gilbert, Morrissey, & Domino, 2011). Through literature, we can create a better understanding of how the impact of co-occurring disorders and trauma on women in community corrections as well as what interventions are being examined to help address these intersections

Introduction 1.1 Chronic kidney disease Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is global health problem with increasing incidence and economic burden every year. CKD is defined as decreased in glomerular filtration rate with albuminuria (Jha et al., 2013). Jha et al., 2013 estimate that the worldwide prevalence of CKD is 8-16% with higher incidence among poorer populations. Among the whole world countries, the highest end stage renal disease prevalence is in Taiwan (Chan et al., 2014). Diabetes mellitus is

Hanrahan, 1978). The Supreme Court reviewed Morrissey v. Brewer in their consideration of the Gagnon v. Scarpelli case, and the justices determined probation and parole revocation hearing should follow the same judicial procedures (O’Leary & Hanrahan, 1978). Therefore, since Scarpelli did not receive a hearing for the revocation of his probation, the Supreme Court stated that Scarpelli’s Fourteenth Amendment rights to due process were violated citing the Morrissey v. Brewer precedent (Florida State University

Since no drug court follow an uniform standard model, each state addressed the issue depending on their own jurisdiction model or code with slight variation of the six requirements under Morrissey (Oram & Gleckker, 2006). In State v. Cassill-Skilton (2004), Washington state statute authorized the creation of drug courts but failed to provide the provisions for operating the treatment program. The notice requirement became the center focus of the case where the defendant was admitted into a drug treatment

Vietnam combat veterans (15%) and community-dwelling adolescents (1%) (Erwin, Newman, McMackin, Morrissey, Kaloupek 2000, p. 16). They note that despite the high rate of PTSD in violent young offenders, many of the adults employed in the criminal justice system are not trained in assessment and treatment of PTSD, leaving these youths without available help for their PTSD (Erwin, Newman, McMackin, Morrissey, Kaloupek 2000, p. 2). For this reason and others, many researchers have expressed growing concern

On September 8, 1974, Gerald Ford pardoned Richard Nixon for all crimes committed while in office. There has been controversy over whether he should have or not. Timothy Noah, former Slate staffer and author of Why Pardoning Nixon Was Wrong, believes he should not have pardoned Nixon. Noah gives many reasons as to why pardoning Nixon was wrong. The main reason is that it set a bad precedent. Ford did not actually know what he was pardoning Nixon for. When you are pardoning somebody, it is probably

address the nature of G-d and this would have an influence on how one might respond to the stimulus. In the twelfth century, Jewish scholar Moses Maimonides summarised all 613 mitzvot, the positive and negative commandments outlined in the Torah (Morrissey, 2010, p.125). Referred to as the Thirteen Articles of Faith, this written composition highlights the basics of the Jewish belief system. This is demonstrated as articles 1-4 emphasise G-d to be of the following attributes: “Creator, one,
