...Jeep, people would not continue to purchase them. Jeeps have been the backbone of America since they were first made. Jeeps have evolved in so many ways from the past to the present and are continuing to evolve into the future. The Cj’s series started back in the 40s, but the one Jeep covered in this paper will be the Cj-7. The Cj-7 came about in 1976 and roughly 379,000 were produced. This was the start of the Jeep that the public could actually use because it had better drivability and more space. The Cj-7 was just like the Cj-5 except the Cj-7 was extended to give more space. The drivability was improved by the addition of anti-swat bars. Another addition to the Cj-7 was a steering stabilizer allowing the Jeep to have a less probability to go into the death wobble. The death wobble is where the front tires whip back and forth making the driver lose control. Another option was the Quadra-Trac, which was an automatic four-wheel drive system. With this type of four-wheel drive system, it allowed for an automatic transmission. This was another way the Cj-7 was made to be more of a civilian vehicle. There were many different types of packages that the Cj-7 came in. The 3 packages were the Renegade, Laredo, and Golden Eagle. The packages included different options including chrome packages, different four-wheel drive systems, and different engines. There were even options of locking differentials and a winch. The engines offered was the 232 inline six and the 304 V8...

...Marie Foraker Best Vehicle for surviving a zombie crisis Jeanette Burghardt September 21, 2012 The Jeep Wrangler is the best vehicle for surviving a zombie attack because the Wrangler can go off road and the vehicle is small. The Jeep Wrangler is easy for zombie swerving and getting around cars on the roads. The Jeep Wrangler is also cheap, fun to drive and go-anywhere capability. This vehicle would be the perfect car for a zombie crisis. The Jeep Wrangler is the best car because this vehicle can go off road. Which means that this car can go through forest, rocks, snow mountains, mud and fields. Having this advantage makes it easy so to zombie swerving on the roads. The jeep Wrangler can go 70 to 75 miles per hour on the road but the disadvantage to this vehicle is taking this car off the road can only do a speed of 40 to 45 miles per hour. This car can seat about 5 people so means if there are any survivors I can take them. The Wrangler can be custom built. People can buy front-end bars to go cross the front, make the ground clearance higher and bigger tires for ground clearance. In conclusion the Jeep Wrangler is the best vehicle for surviving a zombie attack because the Wrangler can go off road and this vehicle is small. The Jeep is also fin to drive, cheap and has an any-where capability. This vehicle would be the perfect vehicle for the zombie attack. This car can be custom built, people can buy certain things for the...

...Well here is the story of a few jeeps... In the short time between school, homework, and Target, my free time is most enjoyed off-road in my Jeep. Chandler, Clayton, and the bass pond will keep me occupied for years to come. As long as I have a Jeep I will continue my quest to explore more trails such as The Rubicon, or Moab. The first Jeep I purchased was a 1986 Cherokee Laredo. At the time the four-wheel drive didn’t work and I didn’t care much. Weeks later I could be found cutting through the occasional field or going through a little mud. I soon learned the need for four wheel drive after a few scary situations last summer. It was about 1 A.M. and I was driving in a ditch with slippery grass from morning dew. In the ditch there was a tall grassy hill that I was thinking about driving up. With a little encouragement from my friend, I charged up the hill and as I reached the crest, my tires started slipping, as did obscenities. We slowly descended backwards down the hill, because the brakes weren’t doing their job. The pace picked up, and fear and uncertainty were riding shotgun as we turned 90 degrees on the hill. I thought a roll was inevitable as we were sliding sideways, so I hit the throttle and we slid around and then the Jeep were facing the bottom of the hill. A few weeks later I got the four wheel drive working, and since then I’ve put my passengers through more fear and fun. Ignorance and adrenalin had got me high centered in the cold raining boonies, up to my...

...Hick Day A slight drizzle was falling from the sky as my huge knobby tires slingshot baseball size chunks of mud over twenty feet in the air. It was now October and the day I had been waiting for a long time had finally arrived; it was hick day. This is the one day out of the year I get to show my true colors to the school, because I am only one out of a handful of real hicks at Bob Jones High School. Now, because of my four past accidents that were all linked directly to mud riding, I had sworn to my parents that I would never put my Jeep Wrangler back in the mud. However, what would just one last time hurt? “This was it”, I told myself, “this is the final time I will go off-road in my Jeep and after this I will fully respect what my father and mother worked so hard to get me.” My near death wreck that almost took four of my friends lives and my life in the blink of an eye completely turned my life around, I now cherish and respect everything that I am granted. To begin with it was 7:30 in the morning and I had just finished making my rounds picking up all my friends for school. My buddy Caleb and I were in the front and we had been planning this day for months. He and I went all out dressing up for hick day. We both wore full camouflage attires from head to toe. I even had on my enormously thick camo hunting boots; they were so thick I could not even feel the gas or brake pedal through them. In the rear of my Jeep were three girls all crammed together in that tiny, two...

...Experimental Research investigation: Theory, heat causes metal to return to its original shape. Test subject: A 1970 Jeep CJ5 (civilian Jeep) series that has a dent in the right rear side panel. I have conducted experimental research on the properties of metal to determine the best process to use to remove the dent and return the metal to its pre accident appearance, safety, and functionality. Type of informal research conducted: Cause and effect (metallurgical reactions using heat versus cold straightening). To conduct our research I started by collecting data on the type of metal used to form the side panel of the Jeep CJ5 . Through research we found that the metal was “common carbon steel” which originally was “stamped” by the manufacturer. Through our research we found that the carbon steel used in 1970 had a low percentage of carbon which allows the metal to be malleable and easy to manipulate. We started our experiment on a test subject piece of flat carbon steel which mimicked the properties of our subject CJ5. To change the shape of the test subject metal we introduced harm to the metal by hammering the surface. This form of experimental manipulation allowed us to produce a test subject that was chemically similar to our controlled subject. First, we used heat on the test metal to soften it. This type of manipulation is called Annealing and causes the molecules in the metal to change form therefore changing the properties of the metal. The effect of our experiment...

...Research Process and Terminology Paper Tomanika Nicholson December 12, 2012 CJA/334 Christopher Franks Research Process and Terminology Paper Introduction This essay will discuss four main topics, which are terminology I learned for the reading, how will the terminology and knowledge apply to a career in criminal justice, how can the knowing proper terminology affect me as I conduct criminal justice research and how will knowing these terms be an asset to me when evaluating and analyzing research studies. Terminology I learned from reading I will include terms for chapter one and chapter two. I will define what the terms I learned mean and how I perceived them. I will define the terms that I learned from chapter one first. There were many terms that was new to me that I have never heard before, however, I will only define three terms form chapter one. The first word I will define is “Historicism,” which means a theory that events are determined or influenced by conditions and inherent processes beyond the control of humans (thefreedictictionary, 2012). My belief of this meaning is that something takes place out of the human control such as ghost or the supernatural. The second word is “Scientism,” which means, the belief that the assumptions, methods of research, of the physical and biological sciences are equally appropriate and essential to all other disciplines, including the humanities and the social sciences (dictionary.reference, 2012). My belief of this meaning...

...Scientific Prose Style The text under the analysis is entitled «The Main Peculiarities of a Snowfall». The text belongs to the scientific style. The Scientific style is a functional style of literary language, directing on the proving a hypothesis and creating new concepts. The Scientific style can exist within 2 forms: the written form of language (scientific articles, monographs or textbooks) and oral form (scientific reports, lectures, discussions at conferences, etc.)[1] The main function of scientific prose is to prove a hypothesis, to create new concepts, to disclose the internal laws of existence, relations between different phenomena.[2] The main aim of the scientific prose style is to present precise information and to establish a clear and logical progression of ideas. The genre of the text can be defined as popular scientific prose and it exists in written form. The common features of the scientific style are: 1. The use of objective, precise, and mostly unemotional language means: e.g.: «A snowfall consists of myriads of minute ice crystals…”; “The Pacific Ocean is the source of moisture for most snowfalls west of the Rocky Mountains…» 2. The impersonality is reflected in the choice of grammar and syntactic constructions: e.g.: «The formation of snow begins with these ice crystals in the subfreezing strata of the middle and upper atmosphere when there is an adequate supply of moisture present. » 3.

...Bombay High Court 1 1862 - 2012 A Journey of 150 Years through some Memorable Judgments Part 1 2 PREFACE A tiny kernel of an idea planted by Justice Mridula Bhatkar took root, and has resulted in a humble effort to present before you a compendium of the crux of some of the judgments of the Judges who have served the Bombay High Court since its inception in 1862.1 The initial idea was to document one judgment of the First Court from each year which was modified to include a judgment of the Bombay High Court of each year. I soon realized that it was too expansive an idea to merit a single judgment a year. I could collect and collate, as many as ten judgments which would qualify to show the development of the law we desired to portray. Having found too vast a number of such judgments, I had to settle at a more reasonable figure of about five judgments each year to showcase the progress this Court has made from its illustrious beginnings. Our Chief Justice Mohit Shah and our Justice Chandrachud wholeheartedly supported the idea to complement the Book published on this the sesquicentennial of our Court. As the number of Judges grew, fewer judgments of each Judge would be selected as illustrations. These judgments are not the only path-finding groundbreaking ones; they are also ones with simplicity and legal elegance. The number of judgments we settled upon just would not permit all deserving judgments to be compiled; only a few have been picked from each year as the first in...

...Elizabeth A. Curtis, Jan de Vries, Fintan K. Sheerin This article provides an introduction to the issue of nursing leadership, addressing definitions and theories underpinning leadership, factors that enhance leadership in nursing, and the nature of leadership content taught in undergraduate programmes. Highlighted are differences between leadership and management, and the notion that leadership can be ‘learned’. The authors also point out that there is a discrepancy between how leading undergraduate nursing programmes prepare students primarily in the transition of education to practice, and the suggestion from a number of nursing publications that leadership in nurses should be fostered throughout their education. Key words: Nursing leadership n Management n Factors that enhance leadership n Undergraduate programmes he importance of effective leadership in health care has been emphasized by a number of authors (Dunham and Fisher, 1990; Hewison and Griffiths, 2004; Carney, 2006; Greenfield, 2007; Sutherland and Dodd, 2008), and nursing leadership is pivotal to this as nurses represent the largest discipline in health care (Oliver, 2006; Marquis and Huston, 2009; Roussel et al, 2009; Sullivan and Garland, 2010). Research on leadership has demonstrated a positive relationship with improved patient safety outcomes (Tregunno et al, 2009); healthy work environments (Shirey, 2009); job satisfaction (Heller et al, 2004; Sellgren ...

Pien, MD, MPH,† and Jon B. Suzuki, DDS, PHD, MBA‡ isphosphonates (BPs) are a pharmacologic class of synthetic analogs of inorganic pyrophosphate that has an affinity for calcium.1 They are used in the treatment of various malignant and benign metabolic conditions, such as hypercalcemia of malignancy; Paget’s disease of bone; multiple myeloma; and metastases from distant sites such as breast, thyroid, prostate glands, and lung. The oral form of BPs is indicated in the management of osteoporosis, fibrous dysplasia, and most recently, osteogenesis imperfecta in the pediatric population.2,3 Currently, there are 5 bisphosphonates in clinical use: alendronate (Fosamax; Merck, Whitehouse Station, NJ), risedronate (Actonel; Proctor & Gamble Pharmaceuticals, Cincinnati, OH), ibandronate (Boniva; Roche Pharmaceuticals, Nutley, NY), zoledronate (Zometa; Novartis Pharmaceuticals, East Hanover, NJ), and pamidronate (Aredia; Novartis Pharmaceuticals). All 5 medications differ in their binding affinity to bone, potency, and duration.2–5 B Osteonecrosis of the jaws (ONJ) is a condition characterized by necrotic exposed bone in the jaws of patients receiving intravenous or oral bisphosphonate therapy. A review of the medical and dental literature reveals that the pathoetiology of ONJ remains...

Key words: clinical telehealth, videoconferencing, literature review, quality of service Introduction Abstract Videoconferencing technologies can vastly expand the reach of healthcare practitioners by providing patients (particularly those in rural/remote areas) with unprecedented access to services. While this represents a fundamental shift in the way that healthcare professionals care for their patients, very little is known about the impact of these technologies on clinical workflow practices and interprofessional collaboration. In order to better understand this, we have conducted a focused literature review, with the aim of providing policymakers, administrators, and healthcare professionals with an evidence-based foundation for decision-making. A total of 397 articles focused on videoconferencing in clinical contexts were retrieved, with 225 used to produce this literature review. Literature in the fields...
