Lawrence Martin Dean of the Graduate School ii Abstract of the Dissertation From Sin to Sickness: A Qualitative Content Analysis of Four Major American Newspapers’ Representation of Alcoholism By Amy Platt Doctor of Philosophy In Social Welfare Stony Brook University 2010 The purpose of this study is to explore how four major American newspapers represent alcoholism. These newspapers are: The New York Times, Los Angeles Times, Chicago Tribune, and the Wall Street Journal. Articles were collected over a five year period (2004-2008) using a constructed, random sample. The principal research questions are: (1) How do different newspapers portray alcoholism?, (2) How much emphasis do the articles place on the moral model of addiction? (3) How much emphasis do the articles place on the disease model of addiction? (4) What, other models, if any, are presented in the articles? A qualitative content analysis was used to analyze the data. Through coding, pattern-coding matrices, and a thematic meta-matrix, overall themes were constructed. Findings suggest that the disease model of alcoholism is underrepresented in the data, whereas the public health and the moral models of addiction are prevalent. “Socio-moral continuity” is the overarching theoretical construct developed to explain why the disease model of addiction dominates the scientific, medical, and therapeutic communities yet scarcely appears in major print media. The persistence of the moral model of alcoholism in major American print media, and its impact on public opinion, promotes punishment initiatives and hinders policy and program developments that might support prevention and treatment initiatives. iii Table of Contents List of Figures ……………………………………………………………………….p.vi Chapter I : Introduction.......………………………………………………………… p.1 Chapter II : Review of

  • Analysis: the 2013 Amendments to South Carolina Code Sections 61-2-180 and 61-4-580 Do Not Substantively Change the Law, Th
    ALAN WILSON ATTORNEY GENERAL June 14, 2013 The Honorable Barry J. Barnette Solicitor, Seventh Judicial Circuit 180 Magnolia Street Spa1tanburg, South Carolina 29306 Dear Solicitor Barnette: Attorney General Alan Wilson has referred your letter of March 27, 2013 to the Opinions section for a response. The following is our understanding of your question presented and the opinion of this Office concerning the issue based on that understanding. Issues: Do the 2013 amendments to Sections 61-2-180 and 61-4-580 of the South Carolina Code of Laws mean: I) Any place licensed to serve alcohol may now have bingo, casino nights and poker nights as long as they are for a charitable purpose? 2) May holders of beer and wine permits have game promotions including contests, games of chance, or sweepstakes in which the elements of chance and prize are present and which comply w ith specified requirements contained in subsection 3 [of S.C. Code Section 61-4-580] as long as the game or sweepstakes does not use a '"poker machine?" Law/Analysis: The 2013 amendments to South Carolina Code Sections 61-2-180 and 61-4-580 do not substantively change the law, they merely clarified existing South Carolina law, indicating that Sections 61-2-180 and 61-4-580 are not exceptions or limitations to Section 12-21-2710 (or other sections of the law concerning gambling or games of chance). Our position, which is consistent with the jurisprudence in this State, is that South Carolina law was clear and unambiguous before this amendment. Therefore, the same principles that applied under the law before the amendment apply after it.1 As a background regarding statutory interpretation, the cardinal ru le of statutory construction is to ascertain the intent of the legislature and to accomplish that intent.

  • 110 Years Since Mercedes' Dad Bought His First
    110Years Since Mercedes' Dad Bought His First Car In 1897, successful German-born businessman Emil Jellinek bought his first car from genius inventor Gottlieb Daimler. He became an enthusias- tic fan of the automobile, took part in the earliest motor races, and quickly became the largest distributor of Daimler cars. A few months after Herr Daimler's death in 1900, Jellinek persuaded the management of the Daimler-Motoren-Gesellschaft to have its chief designer, legendary and visionary engineer Wilhelm Maybach, build a fast, lightweight Emil Jellinek didn't only love Daimler cars; he also and safe car. Jellinek also made a second sugges- doted on his daughter, Mercédès. tion: the new car should bear the name of his daughter, Mercédès, who was then ten years old. And what a new car it was. More advanced than any other of the time, there's no disputing that it set the pattern for all that was to come for many decades. Essentially, it defined the car as we know it today. Of course, during the previous 15 years since Karl Benz had patented his three-wheeler, all sorts of contraptions, both European and American, had been produced that proved capable of moving under their own power, more or less, but none but the 1901 Mercedes deserved billing as "The This example of the first Mercedes was owned by U.S. World’s First Modern Automobile."

  • Mercedesów, Które Były Praktycznie Niezrównane W Każdej Z Rozgrywanych Dyscyplin
    Obaj wynalazcy i konstruktorzy szukali dla swoich wyrobów niepowtarzalnych znaków towarowych. Wynaleziony przez Gottlieba Daimlera nowoczesny silnik z początku nazywał się po prostu Daimler, a pojazd Karla Benza – po prostu Benz. Dopiero Emil Jellinek, fan motoryzacji z żyłką hazardu, pasjonat automobilizmu i wymagający klient DMG, żądający wciąż szybszych i mocniejszych samochodów, znalazł dla swoich pojazdów tę piękną nazwę. Wyścig samochodowy The Nice Week w marcu 1901 roku w Nicei zakończył się sensacyjnym zwycięstwem dwóch zgłoszonych przez Jellinka Mercedesów, które były praktycznie niezrównane w każdej z rozgrywanych dyscyplin. 23 czerwca 1902 roku nazwa Mercedes została oficjalnie zgłoszona jako znak towarowy. W czerwcu 1903 roku Emil Jellinek otrzymał zezwolenie na zmianę nazwiska z Jellinek na Jellinek-Mercedes.

  • Standardized Field Sobriety Testing
    This Page Left Intentionally Blank Instructor Guide DWI Detection and Standardized Field Sobriety (SFST) Testing Sobriety Refresher October 2015 Save lives, prevent injuries, reduce vehicle-related crashes This Page Left Intentionally Blank Preface The Standardized Field Sobriety Testing (SFST) training curriculum collectively prepares police officers and other qualified persons to conduct the SFST’s for use in DWI investigations. This training, developed under the auspices and direction of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), and the International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP), has experienced remarkable success since its inception in the early 1980s. As in any educational training program, an instruction manual or guide is considered a “living document” that is subject to updates and changes based on advances in technology and science. A thorough review is made of information by the IACP Technical Advisory Panel (TAP) of the Highway Safety Committee of the IACP with contributions from many sources in health care science, toxicology, jurisprudence, and law enforcement. Based on this information, any appropriate revisions and modifications in background theory, facts, examination and decision making methods are made to improve the quality of the instruction as well as the standardization of guidelines for the implementation of the SFST curriculum. The reorganized manuals are then prepared and disseminated, both domestically and internationally, to the states. Changes will normally take effect 90 days after approval by the TAP, unless otherwise specified or when so designated. The procedures outlined in this manual describe how the Standardized Field Sobriety Tests (SFSTs) are to be administered under ideal conditions. We recognize that the SFST’s will not always be administered under ideal conditions in the field, because such conditions do not always exist.
