The Earnings And Employment Of Nurses In An Era Of Cost Containment, Edward J. Schumacher

Health Care Administration Faculty Research

Previous research has shown that from the 1980s through the early 1990s, nurses enjoyed substantial wage and employment gains that stemmed, to some extent, from increased labor demand. Using individual data for 1988-98 to compare nurses' fortunes with those of college-educated women and other workers in the health care industry, the author documents that nurses experienced a decline in real wages beginning in the early 1990s, at the same time that the skill premium for RNs, as reflected by the return to education and experience, was increasing. Changes in measured characteristics and their returns explain very little of the decline, …

Uncertainty In Corneille's Héraclius, Nina Ekstein

Modern Languages and Literatures Faculty Research

Scholars agree that Héraclius (1646) occupies the extreme point of plot complication in the Cornelian oeuvre. Numerous events have occurred prior to the action of the play, events that are necessary to the spectators' understanding of what transpires onstage. Twenty years before the play opens, Phocas assassinated the emperor Maurice as well as his sons and took his throne. Léontine, the royal governess, switched the youngest of Maurice's sons, Héraclius, with her own son, thus sacrificing the latter's life so that the royal blood of Maurice might survive. Not long after, Léontine made a second substitution, this time switching …

Flarr Pages #22: From Movies To Film: From Entertaining To Learning, Sonja Bertucci

FLARR Pages

Today movies are a mass entertainment vehicle likely to be used as a class entertainment one. How to use movies so that the "didactical" nature of the relationship between student and teacher is not changed into a "commercial" relationship, where the student is the client and must be entertained, is a real question. To use movies in the classroom risks a kind of pop-culture education, but not to use them is to give up a potentially innovative method of teaching and resort only to what can be gained from words, books, and the like.

The Mythological Provenance Of Isaiah 14:12-15: A Reconsideration Of The Ugaritic Material, Michael Heiser

Liberty Baptist Theological Seminary (1973-2015)

Many scholars of the Hebrew Bible have postulated that the source of the taunt-song of Isa xiv 12-15 is to be found in Ugaritic religious literature Many of these scholars believe that the passage contains elements of both El and Bacal myths, an assumption that leads them to discount the proposition that all the mythological strands of Isa xiv 12-15 can be correlated with a single Ugaritic myth Still others contend that only a single myth concerning the usurpation of El can account for all of the mythological features This article disputes both of these positions, arguing that no usurpation …

Promiscuous Problems And Vulgar Fractions: The Early-Nineteenth Century Schoolbook Of Sarah Dubois (New Paltz, Ny: The Huguenot Historical Society), Joan Hollister, Sally M. Schultz

Accounting Historians Notebook

Integrating accounting history into the classroom is one way to motivate students in financial accounting courses, to help them gain an appreciation of the evolution of accounting, and to challenge them to conceptualize and think constructively [Bloom and Collins, 1988; Coffman et al., 1993]. This paper presents examples of some familiar and some unfamiliar business and accounting concepts as they were taught in the early-nineteenth century to help accounting students and faculty members to gain further insight into how today's practices evolved.

Living In Prison: Evaluating The Deprivation And Importation Models Of Inmate Adaptation, Lisa Danielle Velarde

Doctoral Dissertations

The purpose of the present study is to broaden knowledge in the area of adjustment to incarceration. Clemmer (1950) proposed that a process known as prisonization develops as inmates adjust to the arduous circumstance of incarceration. Previous research has compared two competing models of adaptation, known as importation and deprivation, as predictors of prisonization. Given that Clemmer (1950) originally hypothesized that prisonization serves as a method of adjusting to the prison environment, the present study explored the relationships among the importation model, the deprivation model, prisonization, and adjustment. In an attempt to take into consideration both person and environmental factors, …

Dissent And Fallay In Dickerson V. United States, Rodney C. Roberts

Texas Wesleyan Law Review

In his dissent from the majority in Dickerson, Justice Scalia (joined by Justice Thomas) argues that the Court "acts in plain violation of the Constitution when it denies effect to this Act of Congress." This Essay aims to show that an important part of the reasoning in his dissent is fallacious, and insofar as the dissent is influenced by this reasoning, it is without value. Because dissenting opinions generally, and those of the Supreme Court especially, can become valuable in subsequent legal opinions and analyses, and because logic has a clear and important role to play in legal reasoning, it …

Part III argues against the new rule's applicability to felony drug convictions on collateral review.
