Supportive Housing as a Promising Practice for People with Dementia
This essay seeks to foster a dialogue between dementia care and supportive housing by examining how the core values, guiding principles, and practices in supportive housing could respond to unaddressed housing needs of people with dementia. This analysis draws upon documented and anecdotal strategies from supportive housing to move beyond the traditional dichotomy of successful aging in place versus institutionalization in skilled‐nursing or memo…
How Should We Respond to Spatial Injustice in Health Care Organizations
Hostile design is a built environment strategy to discourage unwanted behaviors or limit use by unwanted users in a space. This commentary on a case identifies how hostile design choices perpetuate spatial injustice in both health care settings and the surrounding community and argues that health care organizations have duties to mitigate adverse health consequences of such spatial injustices. This commentary then describes strategies for identif…
Becoming Housed During Palliative Care Enrollment
Homelessness is associated with accelerated disease progression, and housing placements are less likely when experiencing serious illness. Little research to date has focused on how to successfully secure housing placement during serious illness and end of life. This study aimed to address this gap by examining factors influencing housing placement among seriously ill palliative care patients experiencing homelessness. By conducting reflexive the…
Meaningful Healthcare and Social Service Access for Homeless Populations
Poor health can both facilitate and be facilitated by homelessness. The desire for serious illness care to occur at home and increased attention to home-and-community-based health services prompts consideration of how the therapeutic nature of place can shape patient-centered care for those who live outside of traditional housing. Three key concepts from therapeutic landscape are illustrated by findings from an empirical, grounded theory study (R…
The Pet Paradox
Despite the prevalence of animal companions in the lives of homeless individuals and the established benefits and complications offered by animals during serious illness and end-of-life (EOL), little is known about the experiences of homeless people who have animal companions and chronic illness. Two subsamples from a larger study – longitudinal medical documentation of homeless palliative-care patients who discussed animal companionship during t…

Generational and Social Forces in the Life Events and Experiences of Lesbian and Gay Midlife and Older Adults Across the Iridescent Life Course
ObjectivesUtilizing Iridescent Life Course, we examine life events among three generations of lesbian and gay adults: Invisible (born 1920-1934), Silenced (born 1935-1949), and Pride (born 1950-1964) Generations. Methods: We utilized a subsample ( n = 2079) from the 2014 wave of Aging with Pride: National Health, Aging, and Sexuality/Gender Study (NHAS). Demographic characteristics, life events, and gender and generational interactions were compa…

Differential Experiences of Mental Health among Trans/Gender Diverse Adults in Michigan
Transgender and gender diverse individuals experience high rates of health disparities, as compared with their cisgender (non-transgender) counterparts. One area in which these disparities is most grave is that of mental health, with some studies indicating transgender and gender diverse individuals as having a 40% rate of lifetime suicide attempts and similarly high rates of depression, anxiety, and suicidal ideation. These rates vary further wi…
Pecock’s Mismigrations across the Religious Field
In mid-fifteenth-century England, the anti-Lollard Bishop of Chichester Reginald Pecock managed to get himself convicted for heresy in the very act of trying to teach orthodox doctrine to the laity. His remarkable array of interlocking treatises recodified the entirety of Christian doctrine and catechetics in a sprawling multitextual summa that endeavoured to forge its own new communities of interpretation. Pecock’s textual mismigrations reveal m…
Technology's Cutting Edge
Seeking to defend the new Soviet Union with a devastated economic base and a vast technical gap with the West, Soviet military planners sought in new technology and the language of science the possibility of self-defense. Within that context, a group of young officers emerged as military futurists. Specifically, they theorized that technology was the decisive factor in war, and that technology had changed so fundamentally after 1918 that the oper…

Evaluation of the ability of standardized supports to improve public health response to syndromic surveillance for respiratory diseases in Canada
This study raises questions about the effectiveness of using standardized protocols to improve the performance of syndromic surveillance in a decentralized public health system. Despite efforts to create standardized protocols and engage public health agencies in the process, no significant differences in the effective use of syndromic alerts were observed beyond year 1. It also raises questions about the minimum capacity of the agency and minimu…

Chasing the Yellow Demon
Author's note: A few years ago, I read David Johnson's Spectacle and Sacrifice: The Ritual Foundations of Village Life in North China.1 The book immediately caught my attention because it dealt with parts of China that I know well: southern Hebei and eastern Shanxi provinces, where I was conducting research for a new book. Johnson describes festivals that helped bind together communities, and in several cases had information showing that some of …
Quantifying Rural Hunter Access in Alaska
Despite hunter access influencing harvest success, few studies have quantified characteristics of hunter access. Based on spatially explicit interview data, we used geographic information system (GIS) analyses to calculate access pathways and distances that rural hunters traveled to moose (Alces alces) harvest locations in Interior Alaska. Using Jenks Natural Breaks classification, approximately 53%, 21%, 5%, and 21% of harvest locations occurred…

Encyclopaedism from Antiquity to the Renaissance
There is a rich body of encyclopaedic writing which survives from the two millennia before the Enlightenment. This book sheds new light on that material. It traces the development of traditions of knowledge ordering which stretched back to Pliny and Varro and others in the classical world. It works with a broad concept of encyclopaedism, resisting the idea that there was any clear pre-modern genre of the 'encyclopaedia', and showing instead how t…
Assessing the Relative Timeliness of Ontario’s Syndromic Surveillance Systems for Early Detection of the 2009 Influenza H1N1 Pandemic Waves
Two Sides of a Mountain
This paper examines the reconstruction of the Maoshan temple complex in Jiangsu province. Since being almost completely obliterated between the 1930s and 1970s, it has been rebuilt in spectacular fashion, with more than a dozen temples dotting the region. Most are part of an ambitious tourism project but one, the nunnery Qianyuan guan, has taken a different approach, shunning entrance fees and mass tourism. These differing strategies reflect wide…
The use of syndromic surveillance for decision-making during the H1N1 pandemic
Syndromic surveillance had limited use in decision-making during the 2009 H1N1 pandemic in Ontario. This study provides insights into the reasons why this occurred. Despite this, syndromic data were valued for providing situational awareness and confidence to support public communications and recommendations. Developing an understanding of how syndromic data are utilized during public health events provides valuable evidence to support future inv…

Spatiality and the social web
Digital recording methods, user-generated content and global connectivity – even if still unevenly distributed – are fundamentally changing the ways that information is created and distributed, not least in the broad genre of cultural and historical atlases. Static repositories of general knowledge such as printed atlases, dictionaries, encyclopedias, and other ‘reference books’, are being rapidly supplanted by sources on the web, sweeping with t…

Living with heritage
World Heritage conservation in developing countries is challenged by conflicting demands of preservation, economic development and social equity. Managing these demands requires monitoring of the dynamic interaction between cultural heritage, natural environment and contemporary society. Collaboration between research, management and governance is therefore necessary if we are to reconcile the competing demands of living with heritage. The Angkor…

The Death and Life of China's Civil Society
Afew years ago, I interviewed two retired men who had helped organize a huge class-action lawsuit against the Chinese government's efforts to demolish most of Beijing's old town. The men had been elected in a secret ballot by all 10,000 members of the lawsuit; they were the group's representatives in court and to the media. At the end of our talk, I asked one of the men why he was so confident that they would win the suit, which to me seemed doom…
How green is their valley? Subjective vitality of Welsh language and culture in the Chubut Province, Argentina
Drawing upon the theories and taxonomy of vitality, suggested by Giles, Bourhis, and Taylor (1977), a questionnaire was developed to uncover the subjective perceptions of Welsh language and culture in the Chubut Province. This questionnaire was distributed between September and November 2004 in seven locations with 369 completed questionnaires being returned by inhabitants of these municipalities. The distribution of the questionnaires included a…

The application of Buddhist principles to lifelong learning
The teachings and practices of Buddhism are becoming popular today in Western countries. Its non-theistic nature and scientific method, focusing on the individual's independence in learning practice, appeal to many. Buddhism contains some effective and unique learning techniques that could be applied to lifelong learning. Within a notion of lifelong learning defined in terms of the conscious learning taking place throughout the life span, Buddhis…

Reclamation in Sydney Estuary, 1788–2002
Reclamation is an integral part of harbour development. Ports are deepened to accommodate vessels with large draughts and the dredged material is used for creating wharfage to support equipment and produce. The foreshores of Sydney estuary were modified soon after European colonisation to accommodate large fleets of ships bringing in people and manufactured goods and exporting agricultural produce. However, reclamation was not confined to the por…

Contextualising Archaeological Information Through Interactive Maps
Many web sites use maps delivered as non-interactive images. With the development of web-enabled mapping, new methods of presenting and contextualising archaeological and historical data are becoming available. However, most current examples are static views of contemporary framework data or specific time slices, and do not provide interactivity relating to the time dimension, which is so important to archaeology and related disciplines.In this a…

The Medieval Mystical Tradition in England
The regular meetings resumed, here with particular focus on Julian of Norwich, and Syon Abbey and the Bridgettines. The latest volume of proceedings in the series initiated by Marion Glasscoe in 1980 shares with its predecessors a concentrated focus on the English mystical authors and the reception of their continental contemporaries in medieval England. At the same time, it bears witness to the range of disciplinary approaches - literary, histor…
