The Life And Writings Of Manly Hardy (1832-1910): Fur Buyer, Hunter, And Naturalist, William Krohn

William B. Krohn

Manly Hardy was a nineteenth century businessman from Brewer, Maine. Like his father, Hardy owned and worked farmlands and woodlots, and two wharfs along the Penobscot River. The Hardys’ primary source of income was as dealers in animal hides and raw furs. The father of Maine historian Fannie Hardy Eckstorm, Hardy hunted and traveled along the Down East Coast early in his life and throughout his life took trips to the forests of eastern, central, and northern Maine. This book is intended for folklorists, historians, biologists, hunters, trappers, and others interested in northern New England’s outdoor heritage. Although out of …

Medial Temporal Lobe Activity For Recognition Of Recent And Remote Famous Names: An Event-Related Fmri Study, K Douville, J Woodard, M Seidenberg, S Miller, C Leveroni, Kristy Nielson, M Franczak, P Antuono, S Rao

Kristy Nielson

Previous neuroimaging studies examining recognition of famous faces have identified activation of an extensive bilateral neural network [Gorno Tempini, M. L., Price, C. J., Josephs, O., Vandenberghe, R., Cappa, S. F., Kapur, N. et al. (1998). The neural systems sustaining face and proper-name processing. Brain, 121, 2103–2118], including the medial temporal lobe (MTL) and specifically the hippocampal complex [Haist, F., Bowden, G. J., & Mao, H. (2001). Consolidation of human memory over decades revealed by functional magnetic resonance imaging. Nature Neuroscience, 4, 1139–1145; Leveroni, C. L., Seidenberg, M., Mayer, A. R., Mead, L. A., Binder, J.

A Geography Of Men's Fear, Alec Brownlow Dec 2004

A Geography Of Men's Fear, Alec Brownlow

Alec Brownlow

Men are at significantly greater risk than women to violent crime victimization in the U.S., especially in the public sphere. Despite this, their fears and vulnerabilities have received considerably less attention in recent social discourse than have women. Men’s risk in and fear of public space is overshadowed by their apparent fearlessness in public space. This paper begins to address this apparent paradox using the conceptual lenses of masculinity and control. I explore fear and fearlessness among men as objects and subjects of masculinity. Stated fearlessness among men is counterbalanced by a chronic fear of violent crime victimization. Conditioned fearlessness …

Over Qualified And Under Experienced – Turning Graduates Into Hospitality Managers, Michael Raybould, Hugh Wilkins

Michael Raybould

Purpose – This paper sets out to report on research that investigated hospitality managers' expectations of graduate skills and compared those expectations with student perceptions of what hospitality managers value. Design/methodology/approach – The research adopted a generic skills framework and data were collected through a sample survey of 850 Australian hospitality managers and 211 undergraduate hospitality management students. Findings – Managers rated skills associated with interpersonal, problem solving, and self-management skill domains as most important while students appeared to have realistic perceptions of the skills that managers value when recruiting hospitality graduates. The most substantial areas of disagreement came in …

Air Medical Coverage And The Correlation With Reduced Highway Fatality Rates: Use Of Adams As A Research Tool, Marie Flanigan, Alan Blatt, L Lombardo, D Mancuso, M Miller, D Wiles, H Pirson, Sungsoon Hwang, Jean-Claude Thill, Kevin Majka Dec 2004

Air Medical Coverage And The Correlation With Reduced Highway Fatality Rates: Use Of Adams As A Research Tool, Marie Flanigan, Alan Blatt, L Lombardo, D Mancuso, M Miller, D Wiles, H Pirson, Sungsoon Hwang, Jean-Claude Thill, Kevin Majka

Sungsoon Hwang

The Atlas and Database of Air Medical Services (ADAMS) is a web-based, password-protected, geographic information system containing data on air medical service main and satellite base helipads, communication centers, rotorwing aircraft, and major receiving hospitals for trauma in the United States. ADAMS initially was developed to provide the geographic information needed to support realtime, wireless routing of automatic crash notification (ACN) alerts from a crashed motor vehicle to the nearest air medical transport service and trauma center. This coupling of ADAMS and ACN technology to enhance emergency communications is expected to speed delivery of emergency medical care to crash victims …

Black Butte Jump, Robert Mccarl

Instead of wearing peace signs or shoulder-length hair and making a pilgrimage to Haight Ashbury, I spent the summer of 1968 wearing White logging boots and running five miles every morning, getting ready for my last summer of smokejumping.


The Challenge Of Civil Wars To Multilateral Interventions – Un, Ecowas, And Complex Political Emergencies In West Africa: A Critical Analysis, Emmanuel Aning Dec 2004

The Challenge Of Civil Wars To Multilateral Interventions – Un, Ecowas, And Complex Political Emergencies In West Africa: A Critical Analysis, Emmanuel Aning

Emmanuel Kwesi Aning

Politically and economically weak states are often vulnerable to political disasters which pose considerable challenges to multilateral interveners. During such disasters, the infrastructure of a country can be paralysed and in the emerging chaos, forces of hostile opposition might mobilise in order to take over the government, or people might loose faith in government altogether. This article seeks to analyse the dynamics of such situations by using Liberia and Sierra Leone's complex political emergencies (CPEs) as empirical studies. Here, I analyse the impact of these two CPEs on the collaborative intervention schemes initiated by the Economic Community of West African …

The Oxycontin Epidemic And Crime Panic In Rural Kentucky, Kenneth Tunnell Dec 2004

The Oxycontin Epidemic And Crime Panic In Rural Kentucky, Kenneth Tunnell

Kenneth Tunnell

During the late 1990s in the United States, rural Kentucky (and rural pockets of nearby states) witnessed the emergence of a new pharmaceutical drug of abuse. The powerful oxycodone OxyContin, first manufactured in 1996 and designed for time-release pain relief, found a ready population in rural hamlets and mountain communities. Intended for patients in pain associated with terminal disease, it became a drug of abuse as it was overprescribed and trafficked within newly developed black markets. This paper describes the takeoff of this new drug of abuse, its antecedents, its effects on rural communities, and coordinated efforts at containing it. …
