P.S.: Further Thoughts from a Lifetime of Listening
No full textThe pieces in P.S. reflect Studs’s wide-ranging interests and travels, as well as his abiding connection to his hometown, Chicago. Here we have a fascinating conversation with James Baldwin, possibly Studs’s finest interview with an author; pieces on the colorful history and culture of Chicago; vivid portraits of Studs’s heroes and cohorts (including an insightful and still timely interview with songwriter Yip Harburg, known for his “Brother, Can You Spare a Dime”); and the transcript of Studs’s famous broadcast on the Depression, the very moving essence of what was to become Hard Times.https://corescholar.libraries.wright.edu/dlpp_all/1204/thumbnail.jp

Wanderers' Attitude to Soviet Power: Old Believer P.S. Morozov's Unknown Work
No full textРассматривается неизвестное ранее историческое сочинение старовера-странника П. С. Морозова, написанное в 1920 г. для председателя ВЦИК М. И. Калинина с целью защиты старообрядцев города Данилова Ярославской губернии от преследований местных чекистов. Главное внимание уделено особенностям осмысления старовером проблемы отношения своего согласия к советской власти.The author studies the previously unknown historic work of P.S. Morozov, a strannik (wanderer) Old Believer, written in 1920 for M.I. Kalinin, the All-Russian Central Executive Committee (VTsIK) Chairman, and intended to defend the Old Believers in the town of Danilov, Yaroslavl Province, from being pursued by Cheka officers. The author's main attention is focused on Old Believers' understanding of the attitude problem to Soviet power
Literary Diary as an Attempt at Autotherapy of War Trauma (on the Example of Valeria Burlakova’s Novel 'Zhyttia' P.S.)
No full textThe article is a scientific attempt to understand and present to the contemporary recipient the artistic dimension of war and its reflection in the cultural consciousness of the society of the twenty-first century. The author appeals to the literary diary titled Zhyttia P.S. (The Life P.S.), written by a soldier participating in the Russian-Ukrainian war in Donbas. Certain features of the work provide evidence that it is a hybrid war. For Ukrainians, it is a war for real memory. Most attention in the researching of the literary reception of this traumatic event is paid to three fundamental signs. The first one is the gender peculiarity – the story is told by a woman who fought at the front and lost there her beloved person, who was killed by the enemy. The second peculiarity is the feature of writing therapy, when writing the diary opened the possibility of release from the experienced trauma. And the third one is the genre of diary, which is a memoir and at the same time an artistic reflection of the image of war
Generalized Signal Models and Direct FID-Based Dielectric Parameter Retrieval in MRI
No full textIn this article, we present full-wave signal models for magnetic and electric field measurements in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Our analysis is based on a scattering formalism in which the presence of an object or body is taken into account via an electric scattering source. We show that these signal models can be evaluated, provided that Green's tensors of the background field are known along with the dielectric parameters of the object and the magnetization within the excited part of the object. Furthermore, explicit signal expressions are derived in the case of a small homogeneous ball that is embedded in free space and for which the quasi-static Born approximation can be applied. The conductivity and permittivity of the ball appear as explicit parameters in the resulting signal models and allow us to study the sensitivity of the measured signals with respect to these dielectric parameters. Moreover, for free induction decay signals, we show through simulations that, under certain conditions, it is possible to retrieve the dielectric parameters of the ball from noise-contaminated induction decay signals that are based on electric or magnetic field measurements.

The quality of health research for young Indigenous Australians: systematic review
No full textOBJECTIVE: To assess the extent and quality of the evidence base related to the health and wellbeing of young Indigenous Australians. STUDY DESIGN: Systematic review of peer-reviewed literature; grading of quality of literature; mapping of sample characteristics and study foci. DATA SOURCES: English language publications, 1 Jan 1994 - 1 Jan 2011 in MEDLINE, ERIC, CINAHL, EMBASE, ATSIhealth, PsycINFO, the Cochrane Library and the Australian Indigenous HealthInfoNet. STUDY SELECTION: Inclusion criteria were: published 1 Jan 1994 - 1 Jan 2011; original peer-reviewed research; reported data for Australian Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders aged 10-24 2013s; focused on health and wellbeing. Grading for quality included ascertainment of Indigenous status, representativeness of the sample for the target population, and quality of measures of exposure and outcome. DATA SYNTHESIS: 360 peer-reviewed publications met inclusion criteria; 90 (25%) exclusively sampled Indigenous young people. 250 studies (69%) were of good-quality design; 124 of these focused on health outcomes (15 of these evaluated an intervention) and 116 focused on health-risk exposure (26 evaluative). The methodological quality of data improved during 1994-2010; however, only 17% of studies focused on urban populations. A third of good-quality studies of health outcome focused on communicable diseases such as sexually transmitted infections and tuberculosis. There was good-quality data for oral health and substance use, and some data for adolescent pregnancy. Data on mental disorders, injury and cause-specific mortality were limited. CONCLUSIONS: Despite improvements, there are important gaps in the evidence base for the health of young Indigenous Australians. Our study points to the need for greater research investment in urban settings and with regard to mental disorders and injury, with a further emphasis on trials of preventive and clinical intervention.Peter S Azzopardi, Elissa C Kennedy, George C Patton, Robert Power, Robert D Roseby, Susan M Sawyer and Alex D Brow
