  • Discovering Moral Imagination Along the Wire. (2014)
    SOLÉR, MICHELLE LOWE, Ph.D. All the Pieces Matter: Discovering Moral Imagination Along The Wire. (2014). Directed by Dr. Svi Shapiro. 304 pp. This dissertation is an investigation into the tool of moral imagination in the service of social justice. Supported by the philosophies of David Purpel, Maxine Greene, and John Dewey, this analysis is engaged through six themes examined through the text of David Simon’s series, The Wire. These themes supply a foundation for how we might more thoroughly engage with moral imagination on a daily basis because there is a crisis in our culture around how we value the lives of all people. Themes presented in this discussion are: (1) The idea that everybody matters; (2) A changing notion of truth; (3) Thoughtlessness and banality; (4) Wide-awakeness and not taking things for granted; (5) Asking critical questions; and lastly, (6) People claiming responsibility. Applying these themes to specific textual examples excerpted from a dramatized television serial creates a space to discuss prophetic in- betweenness to interrogate and examine situations of systemic dysfunction and economic injustice outside of a fictional space.

    THE WALKING DEAD VOLUME 12: LIFE AMONG THEM PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Robert Kirkman | 144 pages | 03 Aug 2010 | Image Comics | 9781607062547 | English | Fullerton, United States The Walking Dead Volume 12: Life Among Them PDF Book The lucky characters that are fleshed out no pun intended this week and are propped before the cameras, left to react to this world following the Wolf attack are Jessie Anderson Alexandra Breckenridge , Aaron Ross Marquand , Deanna Monroe Tovah Feldshuh , and Maggie Greene Lauren Cohan. After everything they've been through--nothing can compare Rick and the other survivors for what they are about to experience. If The Walking Dead writers want to push their fans and, come on, we know they do , then they could choose to end on a more ambiguous note. Ratings have been sagging for ages and this year the show finally fell below 3 million viewers. But another prevailing trend on TWD has been its tendency toward shock value. The time for peace and prosperity is over as a new fight for survival begins. Soon to be an Amazon Prime Video animated series airing on October 6, ! There are walkers who have been partially skinned, who have been partially devoured by wild animals. It's excusable on Fear the Walking Dead because of the shorter distance between pre-outbreak and the present, but The Walking Dead 's biggest suspension of disbelief lies in this unavoidable goof. After all, how frustrating would it be for us to spend years watching Rick, Daryl, Carol and the rest of them fight for survival, only to have a man in a lab coat show up with an easy fix? The Walking Dead could end decades in the future, long after Rick and Michonne have shuffled off the mortal coil.

  • Technical Memorandum
    Technical Memorandum To: Chris Ehlers – City of Brentwood Casey Wichert – City of Brentwood From: Michael Ducker, P.E. Chad Coleman, P.E. Reviewed By: Greg Chung, P.E. – West Yost Associates David Anderson, P.E. – West Yost Associates Date: March 25, 2015 Revised April 15, 2015 Project: Brentwood Wastewater Treatment Plant Subject: Tertiary Filters PROBLEM STATEMENT The City of Brentwood currently experiences high electricity costs due to peak loads from the air scour blowers for the deep bed sand filters. The City is interested in exploring the use of cloth media filters instead of deep bed sand filters since cloth media filters require no air scour blowers. This replacement could be a means of reducing the peak electrical load and associated costs of tertiary filtration. The purpose of this report is to summarize the issues and quantify the payback time required to recover the capital investment assuming the filters are changed. If the use of a cloth filter is determined to be feasible, then cloth filters may be installed for the Phase 2 expansion in conjunction with the existing Phase 1 deep bed sand filters. If a Phase 2 expansion of cloth filters proves to reduce the power consumption and load requirements, then the existing Phase 1 sand filters may eventually be replaced. This memo will include a comparison of the qualitative and quantitative costs and benefits associated with the installation of a cloth media filter. DISCUSSION OF EXISTING TREATMENT PROCESS The City of Brentwood WWTP is a suspended growth activated sludge process. The plant operations and processes included the following: • fine screens • grit classifiers • denitrification basins Page 1 of 22 • oxidation ditches • secondary clarifiers • return activated sludge • tertiary deep bed sand filters • chlorine contact basin • belt filter press for biosolids dewatering Un-disinfected tertiary effluent can be diverted to onsite disposal ponds, and chlorine disinfected tertiary effluent can be reused as plant water or in the community as non-potable water.
