about the things that go through but no one speaks up on their behalf. Tyler Long was a 17 year old boy who constantly bullied in a physical way. His clothes were taken from him after gym when he was in the showers, his head was rammed into lockers and the list goes on and on. Tyler 's father says days before Tyler committed suicide he heard that was told to hang himself. (Bully, 2011) When word got out to the town that Tyler had committed suicide, it was reported that students came to school…
space using a sterile manometer attached to the needle (Pagana, Pagana, Pagana, 2015). Normal CSF pressure is 70-180 mmH2O; anything greater than 180 mmH2O would be considered elevated cerebrospinal pressure and could indicate an infection (Ross & Tyler, 2014). The CSF culture is considered the “gold standard” diagnostic test for an accurate diagnosis of bacterial meningitis (Brouwer, Tunkel, & Beek, 2010). A normal CSF culture would have no growth on the dish and that would be considered a…
One solution to the problem of evil and suffering is the Augustinian Theodicy, proposed by St. Augustine of Hippo (354-430 AD). Augustine’s theodicy is entirely based on the Bible, and focuses on Genesis 1 and Genesis 3. He stated that God made the world perfect, which is based on Genesis 1 – “all God had made pleased him”, and the world was free of flaws or any evil. His theodicy says that since God did not create evil, it is not a ‘thing’ and instead taught that evil was an absence or…
hit me, but my legs kept churning. Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, the yards kept building up, four, three, two, one. “Crack!” We stopped for a water break our practice was getting intense. The water was refreshing, cold as a mountain stream. Tyler walked over. I was sweating like crazy. “Good Tackle.” I told him. “Thanks.” he replied. We walked back over to the coach who happened to be my dad. “We’re gonna go over some more plays.” he said. I groaned We always do this! I thought…
inauguration speech. Harrison became the first president to die in office. His Vice President, John Tyler, took his place as president. Tyler wasn 't really a Whig, in fact he was more of a "Old Republican" ( Tindall 561). Tyler supported expansionism and state 's rights.

Calhoun negotiate a secret annexation treaty with Texas. In 1844,…
doorway, arms crossed, his shadow stretched across the worn gray carpet. “Hello Tyler, please come have a seat in my office.” I walked in, slumped over, and sat in the chair on the other side of his desk. He was a graying, middle-aged man, nice smile, but a mean face. Straight away he…

Procedural justice and legitimacy in America is the hottest topic of the last couple of years. The justice system and policing are changing for the better. Unfortunately, there is a learning curve that needs to be hurdled before far sweeping changes are made. Studies show that simple communication and listening skills, along with neutrality and consistency, can influence people into believing in the system again. The key concepts of showing respect, fairness, and trustworthiness have been shown…
sudden moves.” I really like the detail of the “sudden moves” because it gives the listener the same sense of mystery and danger that one would feel by approaching a vicious dog. Like most songs, the chorus states the mood of the piece and I believe Tyler pushes to get across the concept that the people you walk by aren’t always what they seem; you don 't know what those people have been through. We can frequently find this in today’s society. For instance, let’s imagine that a boy gets…
