Characterizing Cancer and Work Disparities Using Electronic Health Records
Advancements in cancer diagnosis and treatment have resulted in improvements in survivor outcomes; however, cancer survivors are more likely to experience adverse employment outcomes such as job loss, reduced working hours, and early retirement. The purpose of this study was to examine employment disparities among cancer survivors. Our study collected data from 29,136 cancer survivors (ages 18-65) between 2015 and 2021 using electronic health rec…
Road to Empire
The capture and internment of prisoners of war (POWs) became the most complex issue of the entire Korean War. This was due to the efforts of both the US and China to use the POWs as pawns in a gran
The Korean War Remembered
Americans know little of the Korean War beyond its sad sobriquet as America’s “forgotten war”. This brutal war which lasted three years and killed four million Koreans has largely been forgotten by
Biological Warfare in Korea
In this article we will look at the arguments pro and con in regard to US biological warfare (BW) during the Korean War as they have been made in the subject literature. After the first decade of p
The vulnerabilities of agricultural land and food production to future water scarcity
We examine risks to current agricultural land to future changes in water availability. • We present a multiple model inter-comparison of future land demand and water availability. • Eleven percent of croplands and ten percent of grasslands are at risk from declining water availability. • Changes in diet and waste reduction offer a buffer against land loss and food insecurity. Rapidly increasing populations coupled with increased food demand requi…
On the Biological Warfare “Hoax” Thesis
Milton Leitenberg’s biological warfare (BW) hoax theory is not believable. For the past three decades, Leitenberg has paraded the thesis that the allegations of BW use leveled against the US by Nor
Korean War Biological Warfare Update
Korean partition was created in 1945 by a USSR/US military accord by which jurisdiction of the peninsula was divided roughly in half between the Soviet and US occupation armies at the 38th Parallel
Biological Warfare in the Korean War
I weigh into the subject of biological warfare (BW) with trepidation. It’s not my field of study. It was in fact, my father’s topic which he researched quite thoroughly, both in China in 1951–53, a
Gun Lust
The essay investigates America's sordid gun addiction. It reviews actual gun usage during colonial times and the early independence decades to understand the rationale for the Second Amendment. Patriotic arguments by gun advocates that guns protect citizens from external invasion and internal tyranny are examined and found to be flawed and not believable. The issue of “gun equality” as personal self-defense as well as the widespread disbursal of …

The Persistence of Racism in America
Why have racist attitudes persisted in America despite tremendous changes in education and socialization during the last four decades? In this book, Thomas Powell explains the patterns of beliefs, attitudes, and values that have supported these views. In a broad exploration that analyzes the values expressed by Western thinkers from the Enlightenment to contemporary thought, Powell reaches the controversial conclusion that racism is linked to man…
