Ohio

the Border South, among them Lincoln's family, moved over the Ohio River to possess ranches (Aptheker, 2010). Kentucky, the idiom went, took Indiana without discharging a shot. In Indiana and Illinois, where Lincoln lived from ages seven to fifty-one, the Northwest Ordinance of 1787 had denied subjugation. All through the pre–Civil War decades, gutsy slaves attempted to advance over the Ohio River looking for freedom. In any case, the Ohio did not check an immovable partitioning line amongst…

by the Office of Child Support within the Ohio Department of Job & Family Services. The award was for fiscal year 2015. “It’s something to be proud of,” Commissioner Ann Obrecht said earlier this month when she and fellow commissioners, Scott Wiggam and Sue Smail, proclaimed August at Child Support Awareness Month. Establishing paternity and support is a very important piece of the process, Director Brynn Jackson said. There are 1.3 million children in Ohio…

All my life, I have lived in Fairview Park, Ohio. A middle class, inner-ring suburb of Cleveland, its racial/ethnic make-up is 94% white residents. This demographic is essentially repeated in my school, sports, and church. Yet this does not mean I lack an appreciation for diversity, equity or inclusion. I understand that there are people deprived of opportunities or treated unfairly just because of their skin color, or religion, or disability. I have been exposed to the celebrations and…

John Kasich Scores First Victory in Home State of Ohio John Kasich has finally won a state, his own home state of Ohio. “The campaign goes on,” Kasich told a boisterous crowd at his victory rally in Berea, Ohio. “We are going to go all the way to Cleveland and secure the Republican nomination.” “There is three of us left, Kasich said moments after Rubio announced he was dropping out but paid tribute to his former rival. “I want this crowd here tonight to give a great response to a very, very…

a vast unoccupied region, emigrants… and free laborers… and convert it into a dreary region of despotism, inhabited by masters and slaves. The Appeal of the Independent Democrats was signed by the senators and most of the House Representatives from Ohio, one of them being Representative Joshua Giddings, who also co-authored it along with Salmon P. Chase, then the senator. This is just one of many supports for the fact that Joshua Reed Giddings was strongly, one could even argue violently,…

Assignment 1 1. An environmental problem that Ohio is currently facing and has dealt with for an extended period of time is the invasion of Emerald Ash Borer. The ash tree-killing insect was brought to the United States from Asia and has been recorded in the state since 2003. Ohio has over 3.8 billion ash trees and the pest is a severe threat to their livelihood. Emerald Ash Borer originally was observed near Toledo, but has expanded to nearly all four corners of the state. A quarantine was…

at least one unintended consequence and its negatives in detail. This section requires at least one cited source. No matter how many benefits a solution has, there are always going to be drawbacks. In the case of allowing undocumented students in Ohio qualify for in-state tuition prices, one of the negative effects that allowing more undocumented students to attend college, is the fact that giving more jobs to undocumented immigrants means less jobs for legal American citizens. However, this…

Addressing Diversity in Criminal Justice Policies Dolores Jackson Williams Colorado Technical University Most judges are elected; would it be better to have the judges appointed by a committee? Why or why not? Explain. I don’t believe that judges should be appointed by a committee, because they run the risk of violating the Judicial Code of Conduct at some point. When a judge is elected they are not swayed by special interest group or partisans, as I come to learn their main purpose to see…

enjoyed learning about all of the different cultural aspects of this new place we now call home. To state the obvious, the people in Ohio have much sharper accents than do the people that I grew up with in Mississippi. The people in the northern region have different acquired tastes and even have a couple different rules of the road. Also, with Cleveland, Ohio being one of the most diverse areas in the country, there are many different religions and ethnicities in one centralized location.…

brought a deck of cards and that’s about it for entertainment for the journey and the rest of the time they are just going to wait it out but also plan on where they are going once they are in the port of Tampa bay. What they want to do is head up in Ohio…
