...Prosthodontist is the dentist who is committed to the restoration and replacement of teeth by focusing on fixed or removable prosthodontist. When your tooth is too bad to just get a regular fill-in by a general dentist, you will have to visit a prosthodontist. Then they will make you an inlay, onlay, crown, bridges, or you might just have to get dentures. Throughout this paper I will be providing the history on prosthodontist, what do a prosthodontist do, and what is the difference between prosthodontist and a general dentist? According to Academy of Prosthodontics, "In Chicago, Illinois of 1918 the National Dental Association meeting was held to discuss the prosthodontist status." It wasn’t until 1922 were it was completed and presented to the membership. In 1923 the members decided to add removable partial dentures to the program. Also, the organization changes its name two times before they decided to stay with "Academy of Prosthodontics" in the late 1980's. The Educational and Research Foundation of Prosthodontic was founded in 1960. By 1991 it superseded to providing grants for education and outreach projects. As of today, the organization continues to grow and expend with new ideas from the younger members that are coming in. "The specialty of prosthodontist is earned with...

...trilogy featuring the infamous character Dr. Hannibal Lecter, a brilliant psychiatrist and psychopathic serial killer. However, Lecter is not a main character in this novel. Rather, the antagonist and killer is Francis Dolarhyde, whom the police jokingly refer to as the Tooth Fairy because of the bite marks he leaves on female victims. Harris does a masterful job of creating background on the killer that delves into the makings of a serial killer. Thomas Harris gives the reader an understanding of Dolarhyde’s mindset when committing his horrific crimes by detailing the abuses the killer suffered as a child (Sexton). Harris takes the reader from the infant born with a cleft palate so disfiguring he was left to die through the cruelty of a childhood that included abandonment, a mean and mentally unstable grandmother, and taunts from his stepsiblings. In doing so, the author provides significance to some of the killer’s actions (Cowley). This research paper will examine the underlying psychopathology of serial killers that often stems from abuse in childhood, turning the human into the monster. Red Dragon begins with the FBI and the police on a desperate hunt for a serial killer whom police have nicknamed the Tooth Fairy because of bite marks left on victims. The public is duly alarmed as the target of the killer is entire families. Members of the FBI know that they must quickly apprehend the criminal not only due to the public outcry and fear but also because time is against them...

...similar crimes and murders, it seem to be redundant Although the death penalty is scares and only limited to certain states in individually country it is an important and widely speculated topic. In certain countries it is a legal form of punishment to kill a person who has committed a terrible or serious crime. According to meehan report there are various reason to back and support the capital punishment, here are a few argument that have been put across. When a person commits a crime such as murder the have given up their human rights, which includes the “right to stay alive” (cbbc 2013). This argument poses a moral and just statement, can a life be taken to substitute for another? We are also use to hearing an eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth, we do not consider what it actually means.If this argument is to be deemed logical then why not a person convicted of assault be beaten up and a rapist be raped or even a torturer be tortured. This argument seems wrong as inflicting such punishment would be committing the same crime. If these act are immoral in them selves, they don’t become just because the are excused by the state.Another form of examination would be to ask...

...Punishment Research Paper Mary Barley Axia University of Phoenix SOC 120 June 20, 2011 Walter James Punishment Research Paper When a crime is committed there are thoughts of why it happened, but there are also thoughts of justice. How will this person pay for this crime? These questions are asked everyday as crimes are being committed. And as these crimes are committed the offenders are going to be labeled to fall in one of the four types of justifications of punishment, which are retribution, deterrence, rehabilitation, and societal protection. Questions have been asked as to what type of punishment deters crime in American society. These questions have been asked and debated over time and answers may be inconclusive. The most important question is does punishment discourage crime at all? Retribution is the oldest justification for punishment to satisfy a society’s need for revenge. Retribution is an act of moral vengeance by which society makes the offender suffer as much as the suffering caused by the crime committed (Macionis, 2006). For example, if someone was severely beaten, retribution for the crime may be to severely beat the criminal. The Mafia families would only feel satisfied when they got revenge themselves. The leader of the organized crime family would choose a subordinate to go out and get revenge for the family. Who should be held accountable for the crime the subordinate or the leader? According to Eldar, 2010, the sentence of an organized...

...CAPITAL PUNISHMENT BRIAN K. PRATER CRIMINAL JUSTICE MAJOR-APA Professor: Dr. Corey Martin March 7th, 2014 Abstract Capital punishment or as some refer as “the death penalty” is an emotional subject for all Americans and is a sensitive subject especially on the political stage. This research paper will discuss how the death penalty is not murder nor is it cruel. The death penalty is the delivery of justice to a suspect that has committed the most hideous crime of murder. The death penalty is justice being served after the suspect has been found guilty by a jury and has been through countless hearings in an appellate court. Our society has to have a defense in the battle of good versus evil, and a punishment that would cause one to pause before they commit an action that would end the life of another human being. This research paper will show why it is important to fully understand Capital Punishment and why it is important for all levels of Criminal Justice to have a defense against those who would do society harm. CAPITAL PUNISHMENT The death penalty causes a lot of debate throughout the United States. The death penalty delivers a retribution for the victim by ending the defendant’s life. The penalty is a deserved punishment that protects society and causes the defendant to pay the price to the victim for the harm he caused. A killer facing death as retribution is justified in the Holy Bible, “ Whoever sheds the blood of man, by man shall his blood...

...Punishment Research Paper Craig Hart March 25, 2012 SOC/120 When it comes to American society there are four types of punishment. These types of punishment are retribution, deterrence, rehabilitation and societal protection. Punishment in its concept is favorably perceived as a retributive practice. Our society uses these four forms of punishment attempting to lower crime rates in our society. Some of these types of punishments could be considered harder than others however each one has its own distinction. Retribution according to the dictionary is the act of punishing or taking vengeance for wrongdoing, sin, or injury. I think that the phrase “an eye for an eye” and “a tooth for a tooth” is a very good definition of how retribution depicts peoples need for justice in our American society. When people have gone through an experience of crime or pain, they want some sort of closure or retribution to satisfy their morality. An example of retribution is in our courts system when murders get convicted and sentenced to one life behind bars for every life that was taken. People who believe in retribution believe that there is no rehabilitation or any help to change the criminal just that the criminal must serve the time sentenced. As stated by Gerard V. Bradley (2003) the adoption of retribution as the philosophical basis for punishment therefore provides a powerful, multi-faceted justification for beyond that proffered by the alternatives. Retribution certainly...

...death penalty that deprives of a person’s life would be too cruel. Therefore, campaigns are launched for the purpose of abolishing death penalty. However, there are still some other people who firmly support death penalty. As a result, in today’s society, death penalty has become an extremely controversial issue, both sides of which have its own supporters and reasons. This paper explores to the different sides of death penalty, to find whether death penalty is necessary or not in today’s world. In the coin of death penalty, side A stands the firmly supporters of death penalty, claiming that death penalty is a cruel necessity in today’s world. A latest Gallup poll shows that 64% of the Americans support death penalty and 29% oppose it. For especially atrocious crimes, the support rate rises to 80% (Jones, Jeffrey M). Another Quinnipiac Poll in Connecticut indicates that more than 65% of the interviewed people are in favor of death penalty for murder (DeSanctis, Chris).There are three basic reasons for people to support death penalty. To begin with, the biblical phrase "an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth” has been taken as the No.1 reason to support death penalty (Swift, Art). In the supporters’ point...

...In this paper I am going to assess one of the controversial issues regarding the juvenile justice system. I am also going to explain why the juvenile justice system should adopt the focus that I choose. I will try to explain how the specific focus that I have chosen affects everything from law enforcement to probation to intervention programs. Just about every young adult from any community knows that when they break the rules or do a crime, there are punishments that will follow. In the way that I am thinking, I think that the juvenile justice system should focus on punishment and work on rehabilitation when the punishment is done. Looking at the punishment side, it would take a big burden off of all law enforcement when a lot of these young adults that have done crimes are locked up for a while and the police can go on to other thing then just to try and help these young people do the right thing. Because law enforcement usually reflects general public prejudices, they can and are held accountable by the public. In addition, the general public expects a certain type of justice, either wrong or right, so that the punishment will fit the crime. There is much institutional and public skepticism over the findings and all the research done on punishment and institutionalization. The one factor is that changing the thought process or the way they act in large groups takes much longer then trying to change the thought process and behaviors of one person. Another issue...

...recommends breastfeeding infants for a minimum of six months, with added benefits when breastfeeding continues for more than a year. Their overall opinion is that the greatest health benefits occur when it is done for one or two years (Ryan, 2012). The United States national health objective, Healthy People 2010, set a goal to increase the number of women who breastfeed for at least six months to 50 %, focusing specifically on low-income women (Pugh et al., 2002). This research paper will look into the many benefits associated with breastfeeding for at least six months. First, what added health benefits does the infant receive if they are breastfed for at least six months when compared to an infant who is fed formula. Second, what added health benefits does a nursing mother receive by breastfeeding for at least six months or longer. Lastly, what are the added benefits that are realized by the family of a mother who breastfeeds her child for at least the first six months of their life. Therefore, this paper suggests that...

...Nichole Pinson Professor Slattery TH-150 Introduction to Theology 13 December, 2015 Reflection: The Sermon On The Mount Abstract The purpose of this research is to examine the significance of the Sermon of the Mount and how it relates to me personally. It is important to recognize that the principles underpinning Judaism is not a single belief instead a variety of belief systems. Through my research, I have drawn parallels and differences between Judaism and Christianity with respect to their belief system, and worldview. The paper affirms that Judaism has had a profound influence on the overall lifestyle, social interactions, cultural practices, and the religious history for the Jewish community. Introduction What does Judaism mean in the life of a Jewish person? In order to properly analyze “Judaism” one must first understand both the origin and the significance of the term Judaism. The term was first used in the intertestamental period by Greek-speaking Jews to distinguish their religion from Hellenism. According to the Merriam-Webster Dictionary, Judaism is defined as “a religion developed among the ancient Hebrews and characterized by belief in one transcendent God who has revealed himself to Abraham, Moses, and the Hebrew prophets and by a religious life in accordance with Scriptures and rabbinic traditions.” Simply put, Judaism is the intricate religious and cultural history for the diverse people known as the Jewish community. Judaism plays...

...Heir is killed, all the demons her ancestors were cursed with may be unleashed from Hell, forever, free to scourge the world in chaos and blood." Father Basil made the sign of the cross over himself, a quick prayer for Dolls, and the world. And the monsters who were once human. A quick prayer for the centuries of the Earp family. "There is another thing, Xavier. Another matter, more personal." Dolls waited for the Father to continue. "The Earps, Wynonna Earp and her sister... where they live, stories exist from the time of their ancestor about beings with..." The Father cleared his throat. "Eyes that turn colors, like yours. I know God sent you to us, to the Elders, for a reason in your infancy. And you've done well atoning for sins you can't remember, and fighting a nature you don't understand." Nodding, Dolls picked a spot on the floor to inspect with his eyes. It was scuffed, a lackluster patch in the marble flooring. "While in Purgatory, perhaps you will find answers to your own heritage." The Father finished, and Dolls looked up, already strapping his weapons back to...

This paper examines a single perspective of societies position on a difficult but necessary evil. | Death Penalty: Why do so many citizens oppose the death penalty? In today’s society the rate of crime, specifically those that involve crimes which can be tried as a capital punishment cases, continue to increase; domestic killings, predatory crimes against children and innocent victim crimes have all continued to rise; Meanwhile the public’s belief and support in our justice systems ultimate punishment continue to fall. The death penalty although looked at as cruel or inhumane by some, can be viewed as a necessary evil. Society as a whole must feel that our system of laws is protecting us. Locking up non-violent and common criminals and attempting to rehabilitate in order to join society is a continuing effort and with some success. However, most studies have found that an increasing number of prisoners today are repeat offenders with sentences for more violent crimes. A study recently done found that 56% of violent felons are repeat offenders and 61% of all felons are repeat offenders. The study also found that most are being punished outside the walls of prison due to their criminal past. After the inmate is released he’s sent back out to society...
