“In a Matter of Hours We Could Corral the Whole City”: How a Women’s Group Used a Half-Page Leaflet to Mobilize the Montgomery Bus Boycott
On Friday morning, December 2, 1955, less than 18 hours after Rosa Parks’s arrest, copies of an anonymous, half-page leaflet began circulating in Black neighborhoods of Montgomery, Alabama. It called for a 1-day boycott of city buses on Monday, December 5. The leaflet was the work of the Women’s Political Council (WPC), namely, its president, Jo Ann Robinson. After drafting the text on the night of December 1, she drove to her office at Alabama S…
The Battles of Texas: Adjuncts, Composition, and Culture Wars at UT Austin, by Nate Kreuter and Mark Garrett Longaker
One of the surprises of the history of higher education in the United States is that, after World War II, when the undergraduate project could have moved wholly in the direction of specialized knowledge and technical job training, it did not. Instead, the 1940s and 1950s were a golden age for “general education,” common coursework for students’ holistic development. Few disciplines benefited more from this state of affairs than did English; at ma…
How Anne Frank Became a Writer: Revelations from the “Tales and Events” Notebook
When he returned to Amsterdam in spring 1945, Otto Frank discovered that not one but two versions of his daughter's diary had survived the Holocaust: the three notebooks of so‐called version A and the revision of that diary on loose sheets of paper, called version B. Other texts also survived, including a notebook Anne titled “Tales and Events from the Secret Annex,” where she collected more than three dozen short pieces of prose. Best known for …

Disease-related distress, self-care and clinical outcomes among low-income patients with diabetes
BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study is to determine the prevalence of diabetes distress and its relationship with health behaviours and clinical outcomes in low-income patients. METHODS: Secondary analyses were conducted using baseline data from a clinical trial evaluating a diabetes self-management intervention. Interviews were conducted with 666 participants receiving care at nine safety net clinics in Missouri. Distress was measured using th…
On being a living contradiction: The struggle of an elite intercollegiate Christian coach
While some research has been conducted on the manner in which Christian athletes utilize their faith to cope with the dominant culture of winning, there appears to be a relative paucity of investigation on the manner in which elite coaches function in this environment. The purpose of this study was to describe an elite intercollegiate coach’s response to the dominant culture of sport as it related to his spiritual life. We attempted to examine th…

The streets of Thurii: Discourse, democracy, and design in the classical polis
The Creek colony of Thurii, founded in southern Italy around 444, BCE, was apparently planned to be a model polis. Any reconstruction of that plan must be speculative, but the stories about Thurii suggest that its design incorporated three entities not usually linked — a democratic constitution, an orthogonal street layout, and a rhetorically‐oriented educational system. In trying to understand what these things might have had to do with one anot…
HIV Risk Behaviors Among Homeless Injection Drug Users of Different Ethnicities
Sudden Infant Death Syndrome Rates Subsequent to the American Academy of Pediatrics Supine Sleep Position
OBJECTIVES: In April 1992, the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommended that healthy infants be positioned for sleep on their side or back to reduce the risk of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS). The authors hypothesized three different forms of the intervention to examine the impact of the recommendation according to theory such as technology diffusion. Seasonality was included in the models to control its effect when testing. METHODS:…

Reliability of Drug Users' Self-Reported HIV Risk Behaviors and Validity of Self-Reported Recent Drug Use
This study examined the reliability and validity of the Risk Behavior Assessment, a structured interview questionnaire designed to evaluate drug use and sexual HIV risk behaviors. Participants were 218 drug users currently not in treatment who completed the RBA two times over a 48-hour period and gave urine samples on both occasions. We examined internal consistency and test-retest reliability and found that, overall, drug users reliably report d…
Recognizing illicit drug use by pregnant women: Reports from Oregon birth attendants
OBJECTIVES. This study was undertaken to determine the prevalence of recognized prenatal illicit substance abuse and the characteristics of women being identified as illicit drug users in a statewide population-based cohort. METHODS. During a 1-month period, birth attendants of all singleton births in Oregon (n = 3200) were surveyed regarding their knowledge of prenatal illicit drug use by women who gave birth. Birth certificates were linked to s…

Filtration-Gallery Irrigation in the Spanish New World
It has been claimed that the puquios, a subterranean irrigation system of the Nasca drainage, are a unique Prehispanic innovation. However, documentary evidence indicates that many puquios were constructed and managed by Spaniards. In Iberia such systems were built by Islamic engineers and were extended by Christians after the Moors were expelled in 1492. The Spaniards brought this technology to Mexico and the Andes, beginning in the mid-sixteent…
Evaluation of active versus passive Aids surveillance in Oregon
We searched for unreported AIDS cases in Oregon through death certificate and medical record review, and enhanced infection control practitioner and physician surveillance. Fifty-six AIDS cases diagnosed between February 1, 1986 and January 31, 1987 were reported passively. Twenty-nine additional cases diagnosed during this time were retrospectively identified by active methods. Ninety percent of those 29 cases were diagnosed by physicians and ca…
Eggshell Ware Pottery in Achaemenid Mesopotamia
The major obstacle facing the student of Mesopotamian post-Assyrian ceramics is the lack of reliably dated pottery earlier than the Seleucian-Parthian material from Seleucia and Ctesiphon. The condition of the sites from which this pottery was recovered precluded stratigraphic recovery, even when this was attempted. Gibson's work at Nippur led him to suggest (1975: 76) that many ceramics classified as late Neo-Babylonian pottery are actually Acha…
Prevalence of hepatitis B markers among pregnant Hispanic women in migrant/seasonal work in Oregon
We screened 303 Hispanic pregnant women who were migrant or seasonal agricultural workers in Oregon for the presence of Hepatitis B serological markers. One carrier was identified (0.3 per cent, 95% confidence interval [CI] .02%, 2.1%). Evidence of previous HB infection was present in 5.3 per cent (16/303) of the women (95% CI 3.2%, 8.6%), rates similar to those for the general US population

Achaemenid Sattagydia and the geography of Vivana's campaigns (DB III, 54–75)
Much of the work that is attempted in the field of early Iranian historical geography is by necessity hypothetical, since there are no explicit descriptions of the spatial nature of political control in Iran before the accounts of Greek writers of the 5th century B.C. and later. The actual geography of Iran is however so precisely delimited that careful study of available accounts, when linked with a knowledge of the local topography of any area …
Demographic trends of tubal sterilization in the United States 1970-75
An estimated 2,300,000 women in the United States underwent tubal sterilizations in 1970-1975. During this period the rate of tubal sterilizations per 1,000 women 15-44 years of age rose from 4.7 to 11.7. We studied the influence on sterilization trends of four demographic variables: age, region of residence, race, and marital status. Women 25-34 years of age were twice as likely to be sterilized as older or younger women. Rates were about 40 per…

The Death of Dr. A. Grant Fleming
This record and these accomplishments did not arise through accident, for Grant Fleming possessed a rare combination of medical competence and sound administrative ability. Exhibiting in finest measure the caution of the scientist and the vision of those who see beyond today, he was equally comfortable in laboratory and debate; and, endowed with an unusual personal graciousness, he could be forceful without dogmatism, could
