Ex-Slave Narrative - Ann J. Edwards
No full textA transcript of an Ex-Slave Narrative interview conducted by Sheldon F. Gauthier for the Works Progress Administration\u27s Federal Writers\u27 Project in the 1930s with Ann J. Edwards. Edwards was born into slavery in 1856 on the Arlington County, Virginia plantation of John Cook. In 1858, Cook moved to Washington, D. C. and emancipated those he enslaved. After her parents split and her mother died in 1861, Edwards was adopted by Richard H. Cain, the minister of an African Methodist church in D. C. She describes the conditions in D. C. during the Civil War, with a focus on runaway slaves and her step-father\u27s role in assisting them on their arrival to D. C. She also discusses the popular sentiment upon Abraham Lincoln\u27s assassination. After the war, Cain moved the family to Charleston, South Carolina, where he became the minister of Emmanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church and the editor of a newspaper. Cain later served as a state senator and then U. S. Representative. Edwards describes attempts to assassinate Cain as he ran for office and served his terms in the state and U. S. Congresses. In her interview, Edwards gives her opinions about race relations and women\u27s rights.https://mavmatrix.uta.edu/specialcollections_workprojectsadministration/1099/thumbnail.jp

Evidence for the decay B0→J/ψω and measurement of the relative branching fractions of meson decays to J/ψη and J/ψη′
No full textFirst evidence of the B 0 → J / ψ ω decay is found and the B s 0 → J / ψ η and B s 0 → J / ψ η ′ decays are studied using a dataset corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb -1 collected by the LHCb experiment in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of sqrt(s) = 7 TeV. The branching fractions of these decays are measured relative to that of the B 0 → J / ψ ρ 0 decay:frac(B (B 0 → J / ψ ω), B (B 0 → J / ψ ρ 0)) = 0.89 ± 0.19 (stat) - 0.13 + 0.07 (syst),frac(B (B s 0 → J / ψ η), B (B 0 → J / ψ ρ 0)) = 14.0 ± 1.2 (stat) - 1.5 + 1.1 (syst) - 1.0 + 1.1 (frac(f d, f s)),frac(B (B s 0 → J / ψ η ′), B (B 0 → J / ψ ρ 0)) = 12.7 ± 1.1 (stat) - 1.3 + 0.5 (syst) - 0.9 + 1.0 (frac(f d, f s)), where the last uncertainty is due to the knowledge of f d / f s, the ratio of b-quark hadronization factors that accounts for the different production rate of B 0 and B s 0 mesons. The ratio of the branching fractions of B s 0 → J / ψ η ′ and B s 0 → J / ψ η decays is measured to befrac(B (B s 0 → J / ψ η ′), B (B s 0 → J / ψ η)) = 0.90 ± 0.09 (stat) - 0.02 + 0.06 (syst)
[Letter from Anne J. Higgins to John J. Herrera - October 18, 1977]
No full textLetter from Anne Higgins to John J. Herrera regarding William "Bill" F. S. Edwards, whom her daughter Shauna met at a restaurant. Edwards gave Herrera's name as a reference when Higgins and her husband expressed doubts as to his supposed credentials, including a number of prestigious universities attended and degrees awarded. Higgins doubts Edwards's future plans of becoming a cardio-vascular doctor due to his tendency to spend most of his time in restaurants, drinking coffee and smoking. Higgins includes a photograph of Edwards
Difference and belonging, hopes and fears: parenting ‘mixed’ children and the implications for career development
No full textRosalind Edwards, Professor in Social Policy and Director of the Families & Social Capital Research Group, at London
South Bank University, discusses parenting issues and their implications for career development at the CeGS 10th
Annual Lecture held at the University of Derby on 18th December 2007.
Rosalind has researched and published widely on a range of issues concerning family policy, with a focus on the
perspectives of family members themselves. Her recent book publications include: Assessing Social Capital (ed. with J.
Holland and J. Franklin, 2007, Cambridge Scholars Press); Sibling Identity and Relationships: Sisters and Brothers (with L. Hadfield, H. Lucey and M. Mauthner, 2006, Routledge); Making Families: Moral Tales of Parenting and Stepparenting (with J. Ribbens McCarthy and V. Gillies, 2003, Sociology Press) and Children, Home and School: Resistance, Autonomy or Connection? (ed., 2002, Routledge Falmer). Rosalind's report (with C. Caballero and S.Puthussery) on 'Parenting 'mixed' children: negotiating difference and belonging in mixed race, ethnicity and faith families' will be published by the Joseph Rowntree Foundation later this year. Rosalind is also co-editor of the International Journal of Social Research Methodology
