“Engineering, at it’s core, seeks to leverage a deeper understanding of God’s physical creation for some useful purpose”. Penned by Dr. Kenneth Johnson, those words reflect the unwavering commitment of a Renaissance man whose life was committed to serving Christ and bringing hope to those in need. Dr. Kenneth Johnson left significantly more than a tragedy behind him when he left this world in November 2013 at the age of 43. In the words of Dr. John C. Bowling, President of Olivet Nazarene University (O.N.U.),” Ken was deeply faithdriven and a tremendous professor who inspired greatness from his students and everyone around him. He was respected and loved by all who knew him.” Dr. Johnson cooperated with God’s direction in his adventures, and as a result God was able to use him He was selfless, willing to serve, loving, wise, passionate, extremely fun and a radiant of Christ. His infectious personality inspired others to believe in themselves. The ultimate mark that Dr Johnson was and will always be unforgettable for is by the measure he is missed. On his journey, his song was one of joy and purpose. This fascinating book details the journey of Ken the Missioneer, a Man Worth Knowing (family man, missions trip leader, CEO, Marine, etc.). The question we pose is “What Will Your Legacy Be”.

Laboratory Primate Handbook deals with the proper care and handling, treatment, and transportation of nonhuman primates to be used as research subjects in a laboratory environment.

This book is about the truly remarkable black American woman writer Jessie Redmon Fauset, who was born on April 27, 1882, and died on April 30, 1961. She wrote her four novels, which will be the primary focus of this book, during the intriguing Harlem Renaissance periodthe 1920s and 1930sin our nations history (Rowen & Brunner 20002015). Jessie Redmon Fauset was a phenomenal black woman writer who lived her life as a/an author, editor, friend, mentor, party planner, poet, social activist, teacher, and honorary member of the Delta Sigma Theta Sorority Inc. (Wikipedia [Magioladitis ed.] 2017). The list could go on and on, but I have decided to focus on these areas in this book. Jessie Redmon Fauset was a true mentor and supporter for struggling black writers during the Harlem Renaissance. This is what and who, as a woman and a writer, Jessie Redmon Fauset is to me.

As Dr. Cullen’s chapter on information technology points out, what is required is not just a new electronic system that follows the patients, but a new language that creates and defines a system that can appropriately care for the patient. What we design for the complexities of caring for the medically underserved can serve as model for caring for everyone in this country. Many innovative, bold, and wonderful solutions have been developed as local/ regional models. As communities and states we can learn from, and support, each other. But the local models are not, by and large, self-sustaining. Ultimately, so- tions to the lack of medical insurance in this country will require a national persp- tive, and federal funding. That is part of the work we all must do, and Dr. Dalen’s chapter points out some of the possibilities and pitfalls other countries have experienced. When I wonder how the system we have hasn’t already collapsed from its own weight, I just need to look at the people working within it. Healthcare is a service industry, and we have been blessed with professionals who understand and live the concept of service in their daily lives, who go the extra mile for the patient despite the vagaries, the barriers, and the sometimes mean spiritedness of the organi- tional infrastructure.

Firearms Law and the Second Amendment: Regulation, Rights and Policy is the first traditional law school casebook to cover the subject, and the only casebook that provides a comprehensive treatment since the Supreme Court affirmed the constitutional right to private firearms in 2008 and extended that right to constrain state action in 2010. From the development of the constitutional right to keep and bear arms through laws governing possession and use of private firearms, this casebook covers all aspects of firearms law, policy and regulations. It is ideally suited to law school courses on firearms law, the Second Amendment, criminal law, jurisprudence and legal history. Key features: The first traditional law school casebook to cover firearms law . Comprehensive coverage of all aspects of firearms law, from its colonial origins to present-day debates. Ideally suited for a dedicated law school course in firearms law and the Second Amendment. Flexible organization makes this book, as well as individual chapters, well-suited for use in courses on constitutional law, criminal law, jurisprudence and legal history. Supplemental materials on the website - including select student papers - will be a continuing research source tracking the most current developments in firearms law, regulation, and policy.

The twenty-first century has witnessed an explosion in studies on comparative health studies, but mental health remains virtually ignored. Unlike the well researched topic of health policy, there is a gap in the marketplace covering mental health policy and health care policymaking. This book fills that gap; it is a comparative analysis of the implementation of Assertive Community Treatment (ACT), an evidence-based practice employed in two states that promises to empower the well-being of individuals suffering from mental illness. Assertive Community Treatment specifically examines the tension separating the notion of client recovery and evidence-based programs. Johnson challenges the assumption that practitioners should rely on evidence-based practices to close the gap between scientific knowledge and practice. She argues that in an era of managed care, this encourages state mental health administrators to adopt policies that are overly focused on outcomes. Programs that can measure the outcomes of care provided, and evidence-based practices, have become central aspects of the quality care agenda. This study traces the role of policy entrepreneurs throughout the Assertive Community Treatment policymaking process. By differentiating mental health in general, qualitative research increases the chances of observing similarities and differences in outcomes. Johnson explains why the ACT model was adopted and implemented. She concludes that there is a clear monopoly by medical researchers and scientists within Assertive Community Treatment research, and as a result, too much emphasis is placed on the roles of policy entrepreneurs as the main innovators in the agenda and policy formulation stages. Johnson presents a strong argument for more innovation in the implementation stage.

Deleuze dramatises the story of ancient philosophy as a rivalry of four types of thinkers: the subverting pre-Socratics, the ascending Plato, the interiorising Aristotle and the perverting Stoics. Deleuze assigns the Stoics a privileged place because they introduced a new orientation for thinking and living that turns the whole story of philosophy inside out. Ryan Johnson reveals Deleuze''s provocative reading of ancient Stoicism produced many of his most singular and powerful ideas. For Deleuze, the Stoics were innovators of an entire system of philosophy which they structured like an egg. Johnson structures his book in this way: Part I looks at physics (the yolk), Part II is logic (the shell) and Part III covers ethics (the albumen). Including previously untranslated French Stoic scholarship, Johnson unearths new possibilities for bridging contemporary and ancient philosophy.

There once lived among us a gracious wonderful lady I will call Corine. Corine was a woman who didn’t desire many of the delicacies in life, for what she seemed to care most about was what God willed her to do in this world of His. She wanted others to know that life was more than what we were experiencing in this world, much waited for us once we pass from this earth into eternity. But, she believed fully that we are to live our life to its fullest while we are in this world. No one, she would say, should ever wished that their life had been different once life is ending and according to Corine, we all will know when we are about to pass from this world. Corine knew that she was made a little lower than God’s angels and told others that they, too, were made a little than His angels. She truly lived her life in such a manner. It mattered to Corine that some did not live up to their true status in life; however, she did not allow them to bring her down to their level. She continued saying to those who did not live in such a manner that God made all of us a little lower than the angels. Corine, A Little Lower Than Angels will discuss the manner in which Corine lived her life according to God’s Will for her while she was here with us. There were sayings and or thoughts that Corine used each day of her life to find true happiness and true joy. Corine’s sayings will be discussed via chapters from the stand point of how she lived her life on a daily basis.

A student-friendly text, A Concise Introduction to Data Structures Using Java takes a developmental approach, starting with simpler concepts first and then building toward greater complexity. Important topics, such as linked lists, are introduced gradually and revisited with increasing depth. More code and guidance are provided at the beginning, allowing students time to adapt to Java while also beginning to learn data structures. As students develop fluency in Java, less code is provided and more algorithms are outlined in pseudocode. The text is designed to support a second course in computer science with an emphasis on elementary data structures. The clear, concise explanations encourage students to read and engage with the material, while partial implementations of most data structures give instructors the flexibility to develop some methods as examples and assign others as exercises. The book also supplies an introductory chapter on Java basics that allows students who are unfamiliar with Java to quickly get up to speed. The book helps students become familiar with how to use, design, implement, and analyze data structures, an important step on the path to becoming skilled software developers.

My book is a result of my faith in God and my love for Him. After becoming a Christian, about 12 years ago, I ask God for a gift I could give back to Him in praise. He gave me poetry. I began to write these poems in a notebook. God told me to share these poems, stories, and things He put in my heart. Then He told me to put them in a book and sell them. This is my second book and I hope people are blessed by the poems. I have traveled a little to share my poems to church groups and our local art center.

As with everything you will be tasked with, this is a delicate situation in the gray area and any investigation must be kept out of the public venue, at least on your end. If and when you can provide something actionable, then the departments involved and/or this office will decide what and how much the public is told, if anything at all
