Likewise, it seeks to elucidate how it was taken toforgetfulness. The Navigators Feast occurred in Pelotas for the first time in 1932, at the Port Neighborhood, organized by the Main Church Sacred Heart of Jesus,known as Port Church. The religious event involved land and water processionsthrough the main streets of the port neighborhood and through both São Gonçalo Channel and Pelotas Arroyo, respectively. For nearly four decades, the Navigators Feast occurred annually, with participation by clerical, civil and military authorities, thousands of faithful, religious associations, sponsors, musical bands, cultural attractions, food vendors and fireworks, among others. In the 1970s, the Procession moved to the Fishermen's Colony Z-3, about 25 km from the center of Pelotas.The displacement of the Image of the Saint from the Port district represented (especially for the devotees) the loss, the forgetfulness. The main methodological approachused to substantiate the memories of the old Navigators Feast was the oral history, with witnesses devotees of the Santa, old residents in the neighborhood, who used to participate in the Procession. Were also consulted primary sources, such as the First Tumble Book of the Port Parish (1912), as well as journals from 1932 to 1972. This study is contextualized by the history of the Port s Church and also by Pelotas Archdiocese, place of origin of devotion to Navigators, and the emergence of the Navigators Feast in town, idealized by Monsignor Luiz Gonzaga Chierichetti. It was possible to verify a unit in context of ethnic religious group involved in the feast. The devotees respondents share their memories about the Feast and feel sorry for its forgetfulness. According to the research, the procession is directly related to life, to work, to sociability and the territory of Port s district. It was discovered that most of the memories of the Navigators Feast at Port Neighborhood shows its happiest parts, which transforms the space into a "privileged place" emotionally charged of life, faith, work / O presente trabalho tem como principal objetivo recuperar as memórias da antiga Procissão de Nossa Senhora dos Navegantes na regiãodo Porto de Pelotas. Da mesma forma, busca elucidar de que forma ocorreu sua descaracterização, seu esquecimento. A Festa de Navegantes ocorreu pela primeira vez em Pelotas em 1932, no bairro portuário da cidade, organizada pela Matriz Sagrado Coração de Jesus, conhecida como Igreja do Porto. No evento religioso, ocorria procissão terrestre, pelas principais ruas do bairro, e fluvial, pelo Canal São Gonçalo e o Arroio Pelotas. Por quase quatro décadas, a Festa de Navegantes ocorreu anualmente, com participação de autoridades clericais, civis e militares, milhares de fiéis, associações religiosas, festeiros, bandas de música, atrações culturais, bancas de gastronomia, fogos de artifício, dentre outros. Nosanos 1970, a Procissão de Navegantes foi transferida para a Colônia de Pescadores Z-3, a cerca de 25 quilômetros do centro de Pelotas. O deslocamento daImagem de Navegantes e descaracterização da Festa representaram, principalmente para os devotos da Santa, moradores do Bairro do Porto, a perda, o esquecimento. O principal aporte metodológico utilizado para a evidenciação das memórias da antiga Festa de Navegantes foi a história oral, com depoentes devotos da Santa, antigos moradores no Bairro do Porto, que participavam da procissão. Foram consultadas também fontes primárias, como o Primeiro Livro Tombo da Paróquia do Porto (1912), assim como periódicos de 1932 a 1972. O trabalho é contextualizado pela história da Igreja do Porto junto à Arquidiocese de Pelotas, origem da devoção a Navegantes, e o surgimento da Festa de Navegantes em Pelotas, idealizada pelo Monsenhor Luiz Gonzaga Chierichetti. Foi verificada uma unidade em contexto étnico religioso do grupo envolvido na festa. Os devotos entrevistados partilham as memórias de Festa de Navegantes e lamentam seu esquecimento. De acordo com a pesquisa, a procissão está diretamente relacionada à vida, ao trabalho, à sociabilidade e ao território do bairro do Porto. Foi descoberto que amaior parte das memórias da Festa de Navegantes do Bairro do Porto evidencia suas partes mais felizes, o que transforma o espaço em um lugar privilegiado , carregado de emoções de vida, fé, trabalho

Primary-care-related emergency department (PCR-ED) visits by Hispanic patients enrolled in a not-for-profit Medi-Cal and Medicare health plan resulted in longer wait times in the emergency department (ED) at a regional medical center in Southern California. This congestion decreased access for those with true emergencies, created capacity issues, increased ED length of stay, and resulted in potential safety risks. This project focused on decreasing PCR-ED visits in the Hispanic population using patient navigators in Southern California. Applying the health belief model and Lippitt's theory of change, this doctoral project involved the creation and implementation of a culturally appropriate, population-specific patient navigator model for the Hispanic population. Evaluation of outcomes was accomplished using electronic health record (EHR) results, which demonstrated a reduction of PCR-ED visits and revisits. The project exceeded the goal of 10% reduction in PCR-ED visits and revisits in the target population and resulted in a 14.31% reduction of PCR-ED visits and revisits within 1 month of implementation. Emergency Severity Index levels, wait time associated with each Emergency Severity Index level, and visits of the targeted Hispanic population enrolled in the health plan were analyzed to evaluate the success of the program. This project may lead to improvements in nursing practice and positive social change by supporting population health management and continuum of care to a primary care physician through safe and efficient patient navigation to treatment and care.

Between 1914 and 1945 the Australian air services, the Australian Flying Corps (AFC ??? 1914 to 1919), the Australian Air Corps (AAC ??? 1920 to 1921) and their successor, the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF ??? 1921 to 1945), developed from a marginally effective air arm into a major air force with a continental strike capability. The interwar period saw a series of pioneering flights which not only laid the foundations for the air defence of Australia but also assisted in national development. Essential to the development of the AFC and the RAAF was the practice of air navigation. While much has been written on World War II RAAF operations, almost nothing has been published on the policy, training and practice of air navigation in support of wartime operations or the interwar period. This omission is addressed by the examination of air navigation in the AFC and the RAAF from the rudiments of World War I to the emergence of air navigation as a critical specialist function which culminated in its practice in World War II tactical and strategic air operations. It was the wartime development of Australian air power between 1939 and 1945, and the parallel practice of advanced navigation techniques, that underscored Australia???s contribution to the allied air offensive.

Despite many theories on student success as well as many resources to help students make the transition from high school to college, many students do not persist in or graduate from college. The purpose of this dissertation is to provide insight into what takes place when students leave P-12 institutions and enter institutions of higher education by using focused narrative inquiry. This study took place at a large research university in the south. The study included 4 participants at various parts of their transition journey. Participants in the study responded to written prompts. Follow up interviews were conducted, and a narrative of each participant’s transition story was constructed. A plot analysis on each participant’s story suggests that students in transition are not only transitioning from P-12 institutions but also between resources intended to aid students in their transition. When employing resources intended to aid students in their transition to college, foregrounding the cultural transition elements should be considered.
