Abstract
This research paper analyzes the architectural and societal constituents of Frank Lloyd Wright's seminal 'Prairie Style' houses, built between 1893 and 1909. It discusses his social and historical roots in rural Wisconsin, his apprenticeship to Louis Sullivan and his rise as a talented independent young architect in Chicago. The writer discusses that the interplay of dynamic social forces, and architectural forms enabled Wright to synthesize an iconic new domestic vocabulary, which is still influential today.

From the Paper
"Frank Lloyd Wright, always a great showman and popularizer of his own architectural works, did nothing to discourage the legends and mythology surrounding their creation. From his writings, one can easily draw the implication that they sprang "sui generous", germinating in some kind of virgin birth from the mind and spirit of the great master himself. In fact, all of his brilliant innovative works, including his extraordinary Prairie Style houses, are built on a foundation that came before. They are the logical result of antecedents found in the architectural environment ..."

Abstract
The paper relates that in the fall of 2008, Congress was called upon to pass legislation to address what many consider one of the worst financial crises in United States history, and while one would hope the current crisis represents a rare event for the American taxpayer, unfortunately, it has been scarcely more than twenty years since the so-called savings and loan crisis of the 1980s. In light of these two historical events, the paper examines how the congressional response to the current crisis compares with the response to the savings and loan debacle of the 1980's. Specifically, the current study discusses the backgrounds to each of these cases and how the political dynamics influenced the legislation produced by congress to address them. Emphasis is placed on the constituency concerns of members of congress and how these affected their ability to work together collectively to take action at a critical time.

From the Paper
"This paper will examine the National Rifle Association and its relationship with the Congress of the United States. The research will investigate how the National Rifle Association has attempted to influence Congress and what decisions Congress has made concerning the National Rifle Association's interests during the 1980s. A substantial part of the investigation will compare what is found in the research with what is asserted by Barbara Hinckley in her Stability and Change in Congress. Hinckley writes with regard to interest groups in general that they are most successful when they are comprised of individuals who are representative of voters in the home districts of Congressmen. That is, the "Washington Lobbyist" does not have the influence of the lobbyist who is truly in touch with voters back home vitally interested in the issue."

Abstract
This paper analyzes the novel "All the King's Men," by Robert Penn Warren, and perceives it as a means of exploring politics and the betrayal that exists between politicians, between constituent and leader and of the self. The writer explains how Warren portrays the struggle for power between politicians, and how, regardless of the momentary glory that the characters achieve in most cases, that glory is overshadowed by the reality of their actions and the knowledge that their efforts required them to betray themselves.

From the Paper
"Prescott (1946) contends that Warren's work was a method for the writer to examine the actions of Huey Long, a once prominent politician who "looted Louisiana" and left many citizens with a weary eye toward the political realm (para. 4). Therefore, the betrayal that Warren (1996) writes about is founded in corruption and the struggle for power between politicians. As the struggle ensues, politicians betray their followers because lies are more effective at in winning votes than the truth."

Abstract
This paper critically analyzes the administration policies and ideas set forth in an essay by President Woodrow Wilson entitled "The Study of Administration". The paper describes Wilson's thoughts about using ministrant (function of the government) and constituent ideas to represent political and apolitical branches respectively and relates that constituent functions were given very important tasks, such as the protection of liberty, life, and property, while ministrant functions were necessary for advancing societal interests. The paper concludes that Woodrow Wilson attempted to outline a coherent and somewhat revolutionary idea about public administration and politics and how each should be separate, yet work together.

From the Paper
"Wilson was determined to make reforms and labeled areas that were functions of the government "ministrant" and those that were not, or were apolitical, he labeled "constituent" (Clements 320). These constituent functions were given very important tasks, such as the protection of liberty, life, and property, while ministrant functions were necessary for advancing the societal interests (320). Although these labels appear to be incorrectly given as ministrant areas were given what really appeared to be political functions such as labor regulation, communications, transportation maintenance, education, and conservation efforts."

Abstract
This paper analyzes the physical and chemical properties of the constituent elements used in typical eighteenth century watercolors. The structure of the sheet of paper, the function of the sizing, as well as the properties and drying of the gum Arabic and the coloration and permanence of pigments are discussed.

From the Paper
"Indigo is a deep, transparent blue that is no longer used as a permanent colour. As it is not entirely light-proof, it absorbs a lot of light but also reflects some depending on the thickness and density of the paint when applied on the surface of the rag paper and the surrounding colours. Its permanence as a pigment considered to be problematic because it tends to fade or even flake if not properly diluted. However, artists can create a very attractive tonal effect, especially when used with compatible surrounding colours."

Abstract
This paper investigates whether staff, committee, or constituent relations membership make a difference when decisions are made. A look at how parties and party membership have an effect on committees with Congress and the way that activities are run.

From the Paper
"Often, we hear that all of the work in the legislative branch is done in committees. Are the committee members chosen due to their party affiliation? What about their staff? Are the constituents somewhere in the party affiliation wake? When each of these is considered, and party affiliation is thrown in, it is obvious that there is an effect. Committee members are chosen, and are expected to act, in relation to which party they belong. Staffs, though sometimes chosen according to their expertise, are chosen because of the party to which they belong. And though many constituent needs are non-partisan, party affiliation also affects them."

Abstract
This paper discusses the phenomena of the volcano. It describes the constituent elements of lava and the different kinds of lava that exist. It analyzes how the lava is ejected from the volcano and the effect it has on the surrounding environment.

From the Paper
"The makeup of magma determines how it moves, and magma with less than 55 percent silica (basalt) flows easily, while magma with more than 70 percent silica (rhyolite) flows with greater difficulty. Low-viscosity basaltic lava involves the rapid escape of gas which produces fountains of incandescent lava in blobs and drops. Such magma is often fluid enough when it reaches the ground to coalesce and form lava flows. The more high-viscosity rhyolite lava is such that gas cannot readily escape unless there is sufficient pressure. "
