While interning in New Britain Adult Probation, I observed how each probation officer had their own style when it came to counseling their clients. The more time I spent in adult probation and with different probation officers, I began to wonder how successful these tactics were. Therefore, I will be researching how effective - in terms of successful completion of probation and parole and low recidivism rates - different forms of counseling are to individuals on either probation or parole.

As the police arrived they detain a group of black African Americans and the 15 year old girl who supposedly resisting arrest gets pin down by a cop who then arrest the girl. The cop does it in a very aggressive way which he should have not done, the girl was harmless and there was no reason for the cop to be so harsh during the arrest.

Upon discovering that I would be an intern for Travis County Adult Probation, I had expectations on what I would encounter and an idea of what the position would entail. When thinking about individuals who are on probation, people I would soon face, I had an image of what they would be like. I imagined meeting people who displayed certain stereotypical characteristics that are promulgated through society such as baggy clothing, tattoos, and tough attitudes. I imagined uneducated people of low…
how different individuals respond to exercise, specifically how long they can work and how efficiently they work. We predicted that females who exercise will have a higher relative-VO2, higher a-vO2-difference, higher stroke volume(SV) and higher cardiac output(CO) at their peak work rate; than individuals who do not exercise. In addition, we predict that females who exercise their heart rate(HR) will be lower before and after exercise than in females who do not exercise. These subjects…

diagnosis of DMD. By the age of 12, the ability to walk may be lost and children will probably need a wheelchair while also skeletal deformities such as scoliosis and lordosis start to appear.
