This investigation is concerned with the importance of the role that William Livingston played in the struggle for American independence. Two methods were used to present this role. First, a narrative account describes his work as governor of the state of New Jersey. Second, subjective opinions of his contemporaries and others evaluate the effectiveness of his work.

During the past few year's the health care delivery system of the United States has come under increasingly close scrutiny and attack by citizens concerned over the illogical distribution and cost of receiving adequate health care. Outcries for changing our current standards of health care delivery have reached the attention not only of consumer groups but also influential individuals in various levels of state and federal government. One need only look at proposed legislation (1-3) recently introduced in both the United States Senate and the House of Representatives , concerning enactment of some form of national health insurance, to grasp fully the urgency of demand for change currently facing our health care delivery patterns. A look at the startling economic picture depicting our current pattern of health care delivery further illustrates the status of the health care within the United States.

The lower Trinity River in Texas flows 180 river kilometers from Livingston Dam to Trinity Bay. Like many sandy coastal rivers the lower Trinity is geomorphically active. Within this 180-km reach, the river exhibits three styles of channel geometry and kinematic behavior that have been characterized using aerial photographs spanning the past 60 years, as well as bathymetric surveys and field work completed over the past 5 years. The three channel zones are connected to spatial change in properties of the sediment transport field. The upstream zone is defined by channel-bed incision, relatively small and coarse-grained bars, and relatively low rates of lateral channel migration. These properties of the upstream zone are connected to the discharge of water with effectively no bed-material load from Livingston Dam. Eventually the channel flow scours enough sediment from the channel bed and sidewalls to reestablish the predicted transport capacity for sand in the river, marking the transition to the central zone. This zone is defined by the largest bars and channel bends with the highest rates of lateral migration that persist downstream until the transport of sand and gravel is influenced by the backwater hydraulics connected with the shoreline at Trinity Bay. This downstream river zone is characterized by very small point bars, the deepest flows at most discharges, and lower rates of channel migration. Studying the connections and transitions between these three river zones leads to a more complete understanding of the coevolution of river geometry and profile, channel kinematics, and downstream change in sediment transport in the coastal zone. / text
