Exploring Officer Arrest Discretion Following State Policy Changes in Intimate Partner Violence
In 2015, South Carolina passed the Domestic Violence Reform Act giving officers increased arrest discretion and rescinding mandatory arrest laws for intimate partner violence (IPV). Analyses using incident reports (2016/2017) from South Carolina show that officers primarily rely on the presence of five variables to determine arrest: children, injury, property destruction, offender at scene, and weapons. Cases with Black female victims are more li…

The Risk of Overweight and Obesity among Latter-Day Saints
Despite evidence of the salutary effects of religion on physical health, relatively little attention has been paid to the influence of religiosity on the risk of overweight and obesity. Our study examines this relationship with specific attention to the influence of Latter-day Saint (LDS, Mormon) affiliation and attendance on bodyweight status. Latter-day Saints make an excellent test case because LDS proscriptions against the consumption of alco…

Moai on the move
Although the majority of the famous moai megaliths of Easter Island are located on the island itself, the ‘collecting’ of moai began towards the end of the nineteenth century and has continued since. In considering both ‘historical’’ moai with an archaeological pedigree, replicas and modern sculptured moai in locations thousands of miles away from the island, this contribution seeks to examine the impact of the different ways in which these moai …
Religious affiliation and Hispanic health in Utah
Two research hypotheses are addressed in this study. (1) Do health trajectories of Hispanics in Utah differ from what has been documented in states with longstanding large Hispanic populations? (2) Do non-Mormon groups in Utah have less favorable health status than Mormons in Utah? This study employs three health outcome measures: activity limitations caused by emotional problems, activity limitations caused by physical problems, and self-rated h…
P1-402 Psychosocial pathways to mental well-being in deprived areas
Introduction Housing-led regeneration has been shown to have limited effects on mental health. Considering neighbourhoods as a psychosocial environment, regeneration may have greater impact on mental well-being than mental ill-health. This study examined the relationship between the well-being of residents living in deprived areas and aspects of housing, neighbourhoods and communities. Methods A cross-sectional study of 3911 residents in 15 depri…
Flora: The Aztec Herbal
Like the vast majority of Mexican codices, the Mexican herbal known as the Codex Badianus was painted after the Spanish conquest. Its history goes back to 1552, when an Indian convert priest and herbalist from the convent of Santa Cruz de Tlatelolco in the Mexican capital produced a manuscript with images of 184 medicinal plants and texts in Nahuatl. The texts were translated into Latin by another Indian convert priest, Juan Badiano, and the resu…
Die Welt in der Stube. Begegnungen mit Aussereuropa in Kunstkammern der fruhen Neuzeit
This overhauled version of a doctoral dissertation tackles a theme that has been rather neglected in the Kunstkammer literature so far: To what extent can objects from outside Europe be said to have conveyed useful information about those regions to their European visitors? The author bases his findings on three case-studies: the Gotha Kunstkammer in Schloss Friedenstein, William Courten's cabinet in London, and the Repository of the Royal Societ…

Existing Biomass Infrastructure and Theoretical Potential Biomass Production in the U.S
The recent and projected status of energy production and consumption in the U.S., resulting in substantial dependencies upon foreign oil, has continued to provide pressure on domestic energy security. All told, bio-energy systems, and biomass crop production in particular, will be important elements of national security, economic vitality, and public policy. Using biomass crop estimates based upon models developed at the Oak Ridge National Labora…

Le murier et l'epee. Le cabinet de Charles Daniel de Meuron et l'origine du musee d'ethnographie a Neuchatel
The mulberry tree and the sword to which the title of this published thesis refers aptly epitomize the life and activities of Charles Daniel de Meuron (1736–1806); indeed, he adopted them as his coat of arms. The sword evokes his long military career as commander of a Swiss regiment which distinguished itself at the capture of Seringapatam in 1799 and served both the Dutch and the French on four continents, while the mulberry tree, from whose bar…

The rediscovery of the mis-shelved vice-chancellor's consolidated catalogue of the Ashmolean collections of 1696 came too late for it to be included in the publication in 2000 of sixteen manuscript catalogues of the collections extending from 1683 to 1886 (reviewed in the Journal of the History of Collections 13 (2001), pp. 99–100). Since the consolidated catalogue is a copy of the early set of catalogues, intended to be kept by the vice-chancell…

Report on a Wild Goose Chase
Belief in geese which grow on trees or hatch from barnacles in the sea is documented from the eleventh century onwards. These geese were described in written accounts; they were depicted in visual representations; and they were collected. Focusing on the role of the barnacle goose in the writings and in the collection of marine curiosities of a sixteenth-century Dutch beachcomber, Adriaen Coenen, the present article is intended to throw light on …

The Representation of Disabled People: A Hampshire Centre for Independent Living Discussion Paper

The paper discusses: (1) the representation of disabled people; (2) how do disability groups relate to able-bodied organisations, policy-makers, etc?; and (3) how can …

Framing prints in England 1640-1820
Whilst the majority of prints were kept in portfolios, albums and plan chests, there is ample evidence that from an early date some prints were framed and hung. The evidence is, however, very patchy, though a picture can be pieced together from a number of different sources. The first and best is, of course, prints which have survived in their original frames. These are scarce largely because much of the material we seek has been destroyed. Print…
