"Infrastructure Investment for Tomorrow, A Financing Plan to Eliminate the Deferred Maintenance on the Nation's Roads"
No full textRegan presents a long-term public investment proposal to preserve and upgrade the nation's infrastructure system. He offers a unique financing plan to eliminate much of the backlog of deferred maintenance that plagues America's roads and bridges. The plan would allow states and municipalities to get out from under this burden with a one-time upgrading program and then attain a new capacity to maintain and improve their infrastructure networks. Regan concludes that the goal of long-term investing is "to make possible sustained growth, improved productivity, and a strengthened private sector" for the next generation. A program to upgrade the nation's infrastructure base could help the United States achieve this goal.
Blonde Builds Suburbia: Ouida Baggett Regan and the Alternate Construction of Femininity
No full textOuida Baggett Regan (1927-2017) was a developer, from Pensacola, FL in the mid-twentieth century.
• A white woman's place was as a homemaker and mother; yet she built thousands of homes and the tallest building in the FL panhandle.
• How did she navigate gender norms, as a divorcee mother and self-made millionaire?
• Regan strategically deployed gendered tropes, at times emphasizing her domesticity and femininity, and others the bootstrap, masculine approach to a traditionally male field
Democracy Sausage with Mark Kenny: Ministerial responsibility, Taylgate, and political blame games
No full textOn this Democracy Sausage, Mark Kenny and co-host Dr Marija Taflaga are joined by Sue Regan and Dr Matthew Kerby to look at what it would take for a minister to get sacked nowadays, and whether ministerial codes of conduct are still worth the paper they’re written on. The panel also give us an update on the polls for the upcoming UK election and discuss why the recent London Bridge attack has fueled a new blame game between Boris Johnson and Jeremy Corbyn

Meta-Analysis: Pharmacological Treatment of Depression in Advanced Cancer
No full textClass of 2013 AbstractSpecific Aims: To evaluate efficacy of the current pharmacological treatment of depression in the adult advanced and terminal cancer patient population. Methods: Trials assessing a pharmacological treatment for depression in cancer patients were found using MEDLINE and PSYCINFO databases. Comprehensive Meta-Analysis software was used to generate a random effects model forest plot, a funnel plot, classical fail-safe N, I2, and Kendall’s tau. Main Results: Ten studies, with an aggregate population was 1,167 patients, were used in this meta-analysis to generate a random effects variance model. The effect size was 0.42 +/- 0.09 (p < 0.01). I2 for aggregate data was 66.16 (p < 0.01). Kendall’s tau with continuity correction was 0.272 (P-value [2-tailed] = .244). The classic fail-safe N was 151 (p < 0.1). Three studies reported a significant increase in adverse effects between treatment and comparison group. Conclusion: Antidepressants were shown to have a moderate effect size when treating depression in advanced and terminal cancer patients. These medications were well tolerated. Antidepressant medications are beneficial as part of a comprehensive treatment plan for cancer patients diagnosed with depression.This item is part of the Pharmacy Student Research Projects collection, made available by the College of Pharmacy and the University Libraries at the University of Arizona.

Heeding the great commission: The significance of Matthew's gospel for Baptismal theology and practice in a post-Christian age.
No full textThis thesis represents a worked example in the application of Scripture to a contemporary theological situation. The Scripture applied is Matthew's Gospel and the theological situation is the ongoing practice of Christian baptism by paedo-baptising churches in the context of a post-Christian cultural milieu. Matthew's Gospel is a particularly relevant text with respect to baptism as the church traditionally has cited the baptismal command of Matthew 28.19 as a warrant for its baptising activity. The interpretation of Matthew m this thesis has emerged from a reflection on practice and is also directed back towards practice. The notion of 'performance’, therefore, is regarded as an especially helpful metaphor for interpretation: the believing community 'performs' its Scripture as a company of players would perform a play or a musical score. The formulation of this metaphor in the work of Kevin J. Vanhoozer is particularly utilised m the thesis. Vanhoozer suggests that Scripture testifies to the dramatic saving activity of God (the theo-drama) in which the church is called to participate. Therefore it is important to understand the plot of the drama as it is communicated m Scripture so that the church can work to continue the action faithfully. As such this thesis functions as a case study in 'performance' hermeneutics and will be of interest both in the academy and in the church. In terms of exegesis, therefore, this thesis is concerned with the place of baptism տ Matthew's presentation of the theo-drama. I argue that baptism in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit (28.19), in the context of the Matthean narrative, is a symbol of narrative inclusion for a new disciple. Christian baptism makes connection with key moments in the Gospel such that it declares the gospel of the kingdom whilst enabling a rich expression of repentance and acceptance of a call to discipleship. The theo-dramatic significance of baptism is then considered alongside the challenges of paedo-baptismal ministry in post-Christian contexts. This creative interaction leads to strategies for baptismal performance being imagined that are not only faithful to the Great Commission but which are also culturally meaningful
