America has a long history of making promises it can't keep, the most accessible buzz word for such promises being, "the American Dream", where everyone will enjoy some level of affluence and assimilate into the proverbial "melting pot" so long as they work hard and follow predetermined rules set by the power structure. In this model American lifestyle, the spiritual essence of humans is buried by the materialistic drive of capitalism, which drives us farther apart and alienates us from our neighbors. Yet in the mid 2000s, in the aftermath of some of the country's worst disasters, this power structure began to crumble. As with any transition, those with stake in the power structure suffered, which was virtually everyone in America at the time. Yet regardless of what they suffered, they found themselves still alive, still breathing. This proved something existed beyond the American dream, something more spiritual and intangible. The aim of these stories is to explore the lives of those left in the wake of the initial post9/11 economic collapse of Brevard County. Dubbed the "Space Coast," it stood as a pinnacle for the lofty promises of the American dream and a staple of its subsequent collapse. The following stories render this time and place, populated not only by those who lost something during the economic failure, but the young people who'd been promised a bright future and watched it ebb away before their eyes.

Arquitecto / El siguiente documento ha sido producido con el objetivo de exponer las principales ideas que plantea el proyecto de título para el contexto inmediato del recientemente inaugurado Estadio Municipal de La Florida, área definida en la imagen 1. Esta superficie corresponde a las zonas de “Equipamiento, deporte y recreación” EDR-03 y EDR-06 del plan regulador comunal y comprende el complejo del Estadio Municipal y el Estadio de la Contraloría de la República, los que suman en total una superficie de aproximadamente 107.500 M2, ó en su equivalente 10.75 Ha emplazadas en el centro del territorio comunal, y que el proyecto propone renovar abriéndolos a la comunidad como un espacio de ocio y recreación. El plan general involucra la demolición de una franja de viviendas inmediatamente contiguas al terreno, la modificación de la altura en parte del barrio y la construcción de diversos proyectos de equipamiento comunal en su entorno, decisiones y programas que serán argumentados en el presente documento.

"The purpose was to analyze the data collected by applying a schedule to the case records of twenty white female patients who were released on trial visit from the Florida State Hospital during the period from July, 1956 through December, 1957, in order to determine whether the initial refusal of the family to accept a group of ten white female patients for trial visit influenced the length of time these mental patients remained out of the hospital during the one year trial visit period"--Introduction. / Typescript. / "June, 1959." / "Submitted to the Graduate Council of Florida State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Social Work." / Advisor: Dorothy D.
