    To determine if Ms. Spano was operating her vehicle while intoxicated the court will apply a four- factored test and the relevant Indiana code to the facts. After applying the factors, the court will probably weigh in favor of Ms. Spano operating the car. Ind. Code 9-30-5-3 states, “… a person who operates a vehicle while intoxicated…”. Ind. Code 9-13-2-118 defines operator as “driver or is in actual physical control of a motor vehicle upon a highway...” The Hiegel test helps determine operation: “(1) whether or not the person in the vehicle was asleep or awake; (2) whether or not the motor was running; (3) the location of the vehicles and all the circumstances bearing on how the vehicle arrived at that location; and (4) the intent of the person behind the wheel” Hiegel v.

Plaintiff’s Motion, p. 17, 21-22 To get to this interpretation, Dr. Newman argues that the phrase “under applicable Medicare regulations” in the definition of “outpatient surgical procedures” somehow refers to the Medicare Claims Processing Manual (which is not even a Medicare “regulation”). Specifically, Dr. Newman cites to Section 20.1 of Chapter 14 of the Medicare Processing Manual, which provides: “The ASC list of covered procedures merely indicates procedures which are covered and paid for if performed in the ASC setting. It does not require the covered surgical procedures to be performed only in ASCs.…

    It is not rare that the media jumped to the coverage of this case, mainly because it involved the sports’ team of an elite university as it is Duke and because the “victim” happened to be African-American. Not only did the university’s administration and faculty rushed to turn their backs to the lacrosse team, but they also rushed to judge them. With president Richard H. Brodhead’s public statement that they were not going to support the lacrosse team in any way and then later, as a ramification of the scandal, the abrupt and impetuous cancelation of an entire season. Not to mention the Group 88 a response of disapproval from the faculty towards the lacrosse team.

However, this impression fails to acknowledge the therapeutic definition of forgiveness as used in therapy, a release of resentment (Reed & Enright, 2006). Upon review of this definition of forgiveness therapy, I concluded that it was in line with other therapeutic ideals that encourage release of negative thought patterns and encourage the construction of positive thought patterns and behaviors.…

He further emphasized this idea by exploring the fact that although we rely and benefit from these technologies, everything comes at a price no matter how little or small it may seem.

The DDT affected the food chain and integrated into the egg shells of birds causing a high bird mortality rate.…
