Topic: His New Profession


  
  Clinton is elected Governor of the State of New-York. – Apparent Calm in Party Feelings. – Causes of renewed Party ...
Clinton, who was brought, by his attendance on the Legislature, in contact with a new race of political men, with a Legislature composed of persons to many of whom he had hitherto been a stranger, received an accession to his popularity which was speedily manifested in an unexpected manner.
When it was ascertained that the Constitution required the election of a new governor for the remainder of the term for which Tompkins had been chosen, a universal expression of opinion in favour of Clinton’s nomination broke forth.
The underlings of the legal profession were much enraged at this change, so advantageous for clients, and one of them was so far carried away by his anger as to resign his license in open court.

 Dancers & Drugees: The Raver Role-Playing Game!   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
A dual-profession character is one who starts out with a single profession, advances to moderate level, and then changes to a second profession and begins all over again (like, say, a newbie all happy who likes trance, and then 9 months later decides he's all bitter and jaded and into jungle).
There is no limit to the number of professions a character can acquire, so long as he has the ability scores and wants to make the change (certain character professions have alignment restrictions that the character must meet, however).
After switching to the new profession, the character no longer earns experience points in his previous profession and he can no longer advance level in that profession--nor can he switch back to that profession at a later date, hoping to resuem his advancement where he left off.

 Robert Owen's "A New View of Society" (1813)
From the earliest ages it Has been a practice of the world to act on the supposition that each individual man forms his own character, and that therefore he is accountable for all his sentiments and habits, and consequently merits reward for some and punishment for others.
At this period of life, unaccustomed to provide for themselves, and unacquainted with the world, they usually went to Edinburgh or Glasgow, where boys in girls were soon assailed by the innumerable temptations which all large towns present, into which many of them fell sacrifices.
They were hired by him and sent to be employed, and without their labor he could not support them; but, while under his care, he did all that any individual circumstanced as he was, could do for his fellow-creatures.

 Chapter 7. Mark Twain. Van Doren, Carl. 1921. The American Novel
His Life on the Mississippi makes clear how exacting his new profession was; how much erudition it called for to know twelve hundred miles of shifting current by day or night, with absolute certainty; how much responsibility for life and property lay in his hands.
Of the older American schools the Knickerbockers had ceased to exist; in New England Hawthorne and Thoreau were dead and the creative vitality of their generation had waned.
Now that Mark Twain is no longer in the news his actual exploits concern his readers less and less in comparison with the permanent elements contributed to his work by his elaborating imagination.

 Modelling a new profession - British Veterinary Association   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
At that meeting, the Council resolved that the new Act ‘should provide for the regulation of the training and conduct of veterinary surgeons, veterinary nurses and a range of other occupations providing veterinary services’.
Among them were that professionals should be regulated by their peers and that, under a GVC made up of vets, veterinary nurses and other paraprofessionals as well as lay people, this might no longer be the case.
These points may be valid but, as has been clear from the experiences of other professions, and throughout the debate on a new Veterinary Surgeons Act, maintaining the status quo is not an option.

 Physician Associate Program Profession
Accordingly, the physician assistant (or physician associate) was initially viewed as a substitute for the doctor; the PA was an individual who, with appropriate supervision, would provide medical care to rural and other medically underserved populations in place of a physician.
The PA is distinguished from other health care professionals by his/her education as a generalist, by the breadth of his/her clinical knowledge, by the extent to which s/he is given decision-making authority regarding patient care, diagnosis, and treatment, and by the depth of his/her clinical experience.
Perhaps its most important function is to initiate and support state legislation fostering the growth of the PA profession.

 Richard Oastler (1789-1861)
Meanwhile Oastler's views on the new poor law, a subject inseparably connected in his mind with the ten-hours agitation, were involving him in serious difficulties.
He also objected to the new poor law on the ground that it severed the connection between the ratepayers and their dependents, and sapped the parochial system.
One of his objections to the new poor law was that it would prove fatal to the interests of the Anglican Church and the landed proprietors, and that the repeal of the corn laws would inevitably follow its enactment.

 New Study Highlights Prominence of Elite PhD Programs in History
That is hardly news to anyone in the profession, but Wu's analysis provides some context by comparing history to five other disciplines.
While the U.S. News rankings are often maligned for the subjectivity of their quality ratings, Wu's findings do suggest some underlying validity in the ratings, at least as a predictor for academic employment.
This is less pronounced than in the case of the faculty in economics departments, where 67.3 percent of the faculty had degrees from the top 10 schools, and is just a bit above the English departments, where 57.1 percent of their faculty had received degrees from a program in the top 10.

 Gov. William Alfred Buckingham of Commecticut
His ancestors were among members of Davenport’s colony that settled New Haven, and his father, Deacon Buckingham, was a native of Saybrook, who afterwards removed to Lebanon.
The inauguration was at New Haven on the first Monday in May, and Governor Buckingham was to the state at large, and certainly to the nation, an unknown man. His message to the incoming Legislature showed unmistakable signs of his great antagonism to the slave power.
Henry B. Harrison of New Haven was made chairman of the commission, and $6,000 was also appropriated for the unveiling ceremonies, which took place in the Capitol, June 18, 1884.

 Meredith College : Paralegal Program : A NEW PROFESSION   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
By historic standards, though, "paralegal" is still relatively new as an occupational category distinct from the lawyer, law clerk, or legal secretary.
In the early 1970s the American Bar Association gave a boost to the fledging legal assistant profession by endorsing the concept of non-lawyers aiding attorneys in the practice of law, and by approving the delegation to these "lawyer’s assistants" of many functions previously reserved to attorneys.
Certification will assist in the continuation of developing paralegal standards, raise the profile of the paralegal profession, signify a greater level of achievement and standardize the level of expectation of the public and other legal professionals.

 Boston.com / News / Boston Globe / Ideas / Hollow history
In his new book, "Past Imperfect: Facts, Fictions, Fraud -- American History from Bancroft and Parkman to Ambrose, Bellesiles, Ellis, and Goodwin" (PublicAffairs), Hoffer contends that his profession "has fallen into disarray" and aims a polemical blast at his fellow historians for condoning sloppy scholarship and an anything-goes ethical climate.
At the same time, the AHA undertook new initiatives to elevate the profession, creating a Professional Division in 1974 to audit and set standards of historical scholarship.
Although the new historians helped create a culture of scrupulous attribution and methodological sophistication, they also retreated behind a wall of footnotes and obscure jargon -- and brought a relentlessly gloomy perspective to the teaching of American history.

When his father was made vice president of Westinghouse’s New Delhi office during Mishra’s senior year of high school, the family moved to India.
Trepidacious about telling his parents about this switch in vocation, as their reaction to his coming out as a gay man had strained their relationship severely, he was surprised to find that they were more open-minded.
Mishra is the interim associate minister at the Universalist Unitarian Church in Westport, Conn. Says Rev. Frank Hall, the church’s senior minister, “[Mishra’s] career path leading to the Unitarian ministry, combined with his racial and ethnic identity as well as his personal attributes create a sense of warmth; he shines in interpersonal connections.

Middle Temple, being described in the books of the society as " of East Stour in Dorset." That he set himself strenuously to master his new profession, is admitted;,though it is unlikely that he had entirely discarded the irregular habits which had grown upon him in his irresponsible bachelorhood.
Although, with the Champion, he professed, for the time, to have relinquished periodical literature, he still wrote at intervals, a fact which, taken in connexion with his past reputation as an effective satirist, probably led to his being " unjustly censured " for much that he never produced.
There are evidences that he laboured diligently at his profession; there are also evidences of sickness and embarrassment.
