Lewis G. Clark photograph
Photograph of Lewis G. Clark (b. 1815), an Underground Railroad worker who was inspired the character of George Harris in Harriet Beecher Stowe's novel "Uncle Tom's Cabin." Attached to the picture is some string made from flax that Mr. Clark raised and spun himself. The image was collected by Ohio State University professor Wilbur H. Siebert (1866-1961). Siebert began researching the Underground Railroad in the 1890s as a way to interest his students in history

Neural correlates of processing valence and arousal in affective words
Psychological frameworks conceptualize emotion along 2 dimensions, "valence" and "arousal." Arousal invokes a single axis of intensity increasing from neutral to maximally arousing. Valence can be described variously as a bipolar continuum, as independent positive and negative dimensions, or as hedonic value (distance from neutral). In this study, we used functional magnetic resonance imaging to characterize neural activity correlating with arousal and with distinct models of valence during presentation of affective word stimuli. Our results extend observations in the chemosensory domain suggesting a double dissociation in which subregions of orbitofrontal cortex process valence, whereas amygdala preferentially processes arousal. In addition, our data support the physiological validity of descriptions of valence along independent axes or as absolute distance from neutral but fail to support the validity of descriptions of valence along a bipolar continuum
Probability without certainty Foundationalism and the Lewis-Reichenbach debate
Like many discussions on the pros and cons of epistemic foundationalism, the debate between C.I. Lewis and H. Reichenbach dealt with three concerns: the existence of basic beliefs, their nature, and the way in which beliefs are related. In this paper we concentrate on the third matter, especially on Lewis’s assertion that a probability relation must depend on something that is certain, and Reichenbach’s claim that certainty is never needed. We note that Lewis’s assertion is prima facie ambiguous, but argue that this ambiguity is only apparent if probability theory is viewed within a modal logic. Although there are empirical situations where Reichenbach is right, and others where Lewis’s reasoning seems to be more appropriate, it will become clear that Reichenbach’s stance is the generic one. This follows simply from the fact that, if P(E|G) > 0 and P(E|not-G) > 0, then P(E) > 0. We conclude that this constitutes a threat to epistemic foundationalism

Holliday, E. Holliday, 10 April 2005. Diagnosis. The gonopod angiocoxites are similar to P. v a l g a, from which P. b a r r i is distinguished by the absence of the stout subapical spine on the median angiocoxite. The syncolpocoxites of P. barri and P. v a l g a are of the typical mittenshape, but P. barri has a bifurcate process, which is absent in P. v a l g a. The 9 th leg has an unusually stout basal knob that firmly interlocks under the lateral syncolpocoxite as it nests within the curvature of the leg. Shear (1972) placed P. v a l g a in the Spira Group, also noting the similarities to the Indianae Group and suggesting that the group was morphologically and geographically heterogeneous. Description of male. Longest approximately 29mm (coiled), width increasing from 1.1mm (collum) to 2.3mm (7 th segment); body very light brown with vestigial purple infusion in pregonopodal segments, metaterga with indistinct subovate reticulated spot, lightly sculptured with low, scattered tubercles, dorsal midline stripe light brown, most obvious in pregonopodal segments, scarcely demarcated from the vestigially pigmented adjacent structures; sterna and legs almost white. Eyes with 13–14 clear, irregularly shaped unpigmented ocelli within subtriangular light purple ocellaria. Antennae about 4.7mm long, slender, 3 rd segment about 1.4mm. Segmental paranota pronounced, largest anterior to about midbody, becoming indistinct from lateral striae about segments 22–24. Lateral striae about 10–11. Gonopods with syncolpocoxites mittenshaped, separated by high Ushaped cleft, process class I, arises from the notch between the syncolpocoxites, bladelike in lateral view, in anterior view notched apically, bifurcate. Median angiocoxite simple, erect, spines or processes absent. Lateral angiocoxite separated from median by relatively shallow Ushaped cleft, sigmoidally curved, undivided, extending mesad crossing that of other side in midline. Leg 9 with massive basal knob, distal 3 segments well formed and apparently functional, single claw present. Female. Longest approximately 29mm (coiled), nonsexual characters similar to male. Cyphopod valves elongate, mesal valve tapering to a narrow band in ventral view, about 1.1 times length of lateral valve. Etymology. This species is named for Dr. Thomas C. Barr, Jr., whom I have the honor of knowing as my friend and mentor. Dr. Barr’s contributions to our knowledge of caves and cave biology in Tennessee are inestimable. Vernacular name: Barr’s cave milliped. Habitat and range. At the typelocality, the downstream Trussell Cave, the millipeds were taken on guano of the Gray bat Myotis grisescens on riparian mudbanks. In Crystal Cave the millipeds were taken in stream detritus and pitfalls placed in riparian mudbanks. Big Room, Big Mouth and Payne Saltpeter caves are parts of the same cave system, where the millipeds came to pitfalls in moist mudbanks. At the north end of the known range in Warren County, at Joint, Little Bat and Hubbards caves, the millipeds were taken in pitfalls in damp, but streamless passages. To the west in Franklin County, P. barri was taken in pitfall traps placed in moist soil habitat in the streamless Dry Cave. Most of these localities were described by Barr (1961). The caves occur in a area spanning about 25 miles (40 km) along the edge of the Cumberland Escarpment (map 1). MAP 1.
