Title: VIOLENCE AND LEGALIZED BROTHEL PROSTITUTION IN NEVADA : Examining Safety, Risk, and Prostitution Policy (Electronic Document) --2005. Source: Journal of Interpersonal Violence Pages: 26 Subject: 1. Brothels. 2. Prostitution. Notes: "This article examines violence in legalized brothels in Nevada. Debates over prostitution policies in the United States have long focused on questions of safety and risk. These discourses inevitably invoke the coupling of violence and prostitution, though systematic examinations of the relationship between the two are sparse. This article explores the issue of violence in the Nevada brothel industry. By drawing on interviews with prostitutes, managers, and policy makers, this article examines both prostitutes’ perceptions of safety and risk and brothel managers’ practices designed to mitigate violence. Discourses relate to three types of violence: interpersonal violence against prostitutes, violence against community order, and sexually transmitted diseases as violence. The authors conclude by arguing that the legalization of prostitution brings a level of public scrutiny, official regulation, and bureaucratization to brothels that decreases the risk of these 3 types of systematic violence."

Computer access and use have also become an integral part of many students' and teachers' learning and instruction in school. However, access to computers may vary among students from different socioeconomic backgrounds. In addition, while computer use presents opportunities to enhance learning and instruction, it also presents a number of challenges. To better understand these opportunities and challenges, it is important to understand how computers are specifically used by students and teachers during the learning and instructional processes.

Title: TAKING THE LONG VIEW : State Efforts to Solve Teacher Shortages by Strengthening the Profession (Electronic Document) --2018. Source: Learning Policy Institute Pages: 64 Subject: 1. Education--Personnel. 2. Education--Teachers. Notes: "Across the country, districts and schools are struggling to meet the growing demand for qualified teachers. Indeed, there are some subjects—such as mathematics, science, and special education—in which nearly every state is experiencing a teacher shortage. As a result, states often turn to underqualified teachers to fill the vacuum, a problematic and often temporary solution because these teachers are less effective on average and more likely to leave the field, especially in high need schools in which they are disproportionately placed. Such attrition is costly to states and further undermines student achievement and school improvement efforts.

Source: Western Water Law and Policy Reporter Pages: 2 Subject: 1. Water Rights--Nevada. 2. Washoe County. Notes: "In June 2018, the Nevada State Engineer issued a curtailment order for groundwater in the Hualipai Flat hydrologic basin. The basin is located in Humboldt, Pershing and Washoe counties in Northern Nevada. The State Engineer has also, recently, issued curtailment orders and limiting orders for other basins in northern Nevada. As in most of the West, Nevada's water supply from snowmelt has been seriously challenged. While the state does not officially recognize climate change in name as the driving force, many seem to recognize that water supply in the state is becoming more scarce and the Office of Engineer is monitoring critical basins comparing annual yield capacity against water rights."
