Abstract
This paper seeks to determine the 1982 military intervention of the United States in Lebanon. The paper explains that this beholds a many faceted justification for military action before diplomacy was even considered. The paper discusses how the wide variety of information on financial and military support for Israel decidedly offers an argument that limits the moral justification of saving the lives of PLO members, as well as the Christians, that had been killed due to combat between Arabs and the Israeli Army.
From the Paper
"This political study will examine the 1982 origins of the military intervention by United States military forces in Palestine. By analyzing the various Israeli-Palestinian conflicts of this era, we see the nature of military intervention to protect Christian populations in Israel ultimately failed as a consequence of the U.S. Embassy bombing in 1983. The justification to provide safety for those Christians outside of the conflict between Arab and Jew was the main source for intervention, but failed due to policy issues and political/military misjudgments that were not taken into consideration within the Reagan Administration. In essence, the close ties with Lebanese/Christian Arabs and the support America had given financially to the building of a large Jewish army resulted in an unsuccessful military intervention in this region."

Abstract
The paper explores three theoretical approaches to international relations; realism, liberalism and international society theory. The paper looks at how motivations and conduct of the Eisenhower Administration during the Lebanon crises indicate that realism had the most influence, international society theory had less influence, and liberalism had very little influence.
From the Paper
"In order to provide an explanation for the American decision to intervene in Lebanon in 1958, examining the influence on decision makers of three theoretical approaches to international relations is necessary, for foreign policy is formulated at times in accordance with theories such as realism, liberalism, and international society theory. The motivations and conduct of the Eisenhower Administration during the Lebanon crises indicate that realism had the most influence, international society theory..."

Abstract
This paper states that America's foreign policy, requiring military intervention by the United States every time something goes wrong in any corner of the world, has not resolved the conflict and has given rise to immense resentment against United States interests. The author believes that the Middle East conflict is the most perfect example of American intervention going haywire; the case of Lebanon is used as an example. The paper contends that even the United States cannot afford to intervene in every conflict, since its military and economic resources are limited, and America's intervention in internal insurgencies is likely to backfire.

From the Paper
"We must bear in mind that current rise in organized terrorism has its roots in all such US interventionist attacks in Middle Eastern region. Deep-rooted resentment against America's double standards and its selfish interventionism has given birth to a chain of terrorist organizations that have now become a major threat to peace and security of Americans everywhere in the world."

Abstract
This paper looks for the best explanation for the American decision to intervene in Lebanon in 1958 by analyzing three theoretical schools - realism, liberalism and the international society theory. It examines the decision-makers involved, identifies their motivations and analyzes the justifications they offered for deploying American troops. The paper then compares these factors to the principles of liberalism, realism and international society theory in order to determine whether there is a correlation.
From the Paper
"In this bipolar world, instability in a particular region or country was often seized upon as a pretext for power projection by Moscow or Washington, and Lebanon provided Washington in 1958 with a justification to demonstrate American power and resolve in the aftermath of the Soviet invasion of Hungary in 1956, which produced perceptions of Western weakness. (Korbani 21-52) In addition, it has been suggested that the intervention was also an attempt by Eisenhower to assuage French bitterness over his harsh criticism of French actions during the Suez Crisis in 1956, and was a conciliatory gesture in the form of intervening in France's former colony of Lebanon in order to protect French economic and political interests."

Abstract
This paper discusses a parent intervention program for divorced mothers of young children. It further stipulates that the parent is suffering from depression and is in need a an intervention program to assist the family. The concept of the intervention program is established, as well as the ideas that will be addressed within the program.
From the Paper
"Researchers indicate that many mothers of newborns often develop hormonal changes that trigger depression. Recent news events in which depressed mothers have killed their children demonstrate that this issue is one of significant importance to our society. While feelings of this magnitude do not inflict all parents of newborns, those that are affected suffer in great numbers throughout the world. Additionally, mothers of children, (aged newborn to three years of age) who compound this emotional time with divorce are often alone, and in need of assistance in providing a stable environment for their children. With their worlds filled with new life, and the loss of a mate, this delicate period in a mother's existence can be quite overwhelming. Furthermore, these life complications can adversely affect the children of the home because there is a lack of emotional stability for the child to learn from. "

Abstract
In this article, the writer examines the justification of humanitarian intervention. The writer maintains that from a purely human perspective, humanitarian intervention is always justified, and that the only aspect of it that should be subject to debate is its effectiveness. The writer discusses that various complicated factors can produce difficult decisions for those in power regarding the necessity or justification of humanitarian intervention.
From the Paper
"From a purely human perspective, humanitarian intervention is always justified, the only aspect of it that should be subject to debate is the effectiveness of humanitarian intervention. But in the real world, complex political, economic, social, and religious factors can combine to present difficult decisions for national and international authorities to make when deliberating over whether humanitarian intervention is necessary or justified."

Summary
From the Paper
"This outbreak of TB was responsible for the deaths of 36 prisoners and one correctional officer, as well as the infection of a number of healthcare employees with a strain of multi-drug resistant tuberculosis (Dooley, Jarvis, Martone & Snider, 1992). As Mueller points out, "Medical experts say when patients stop taking the medication at some point during the year, it can keep the patient from getting well and lead to a strain of TB which is partially resistant to such treatment" (p. 101). Likewise, Eckert suggests that noncompliance with treatment regimens represents one of the most important reasons multi-drug resistant strains of TB have evolved in recent years. According to Eckert, "Many patients, for example, abandon treatment when their symptoms disappear but before all of the illness-causing pathogens are effectively killed. The tuberculosis-causing bacterium, for instance, has become increasingly difficult to treat, as too many patients have prematurely abandoned the six-month course of antibiotics" (p. 166). In this regard, Mueller points out that, "This is why health care staff members emphasize direct observation of patients taking their medication" (p. 101). Such comprehensive oversight, though, may be beyond the capabilities of some correctional facilities, as well as their ability to adequately train their staff in appropriate universal precautions that are needed when working with such populations."

Abstract
This paper looks at some of the of literature on play-based intervention. In particular, it looks at how using play as a means of intervention for children with various problems is a good way to get the child to participate and to do so in a way that is effective and valuable.
From the Paper
"This is a critical review of some of the research literature on play-based intervention. Children learn from play and also are drawn to it, so using play as a means of intervention for children with various problems is a good way to get the child to participate and to do so in a way that is effective and valuable. Watson (2004) offers some of the rationale for play therapy, noting that when children play, they often enact some theme that is traumatic or negative for them. Among these are anxious anticipation at the beginning of kindergarten, the reenactment of a recent hospitalization or a frightening movie. "
