No full textMemorandum of understanding from the Boy Scouts of America staff to Shoji Nagumo regarding an invitation to attend the Boy Scouts of America Court of Honor on February 12, 1943. "Rec. Dept. Form no. 12."The Japanese American Archival Collection documents the people, places, and daily life of Japanese Americans, primarily those who lived in the once thriving community of pre-war Florin in the Sacramento region, as well as the conditions in American incarceration camps during World War II. The approximately 7,000 original items include personal and official letters, photographs, diaries, arts and crafts, newsletters, textiles, camps artifacts, yearbooks and other publications
A Place in the Pattern of America: John Okada’s No-No Boy and the Asian American Bildungsroman
No full textAuthor: Phenix Kim University of Edinburgh Download PDF version ‘NO-NO BOYS’ AND THE ASIAN AMERICAN BILDUNGSROMAN Written in the aftermath of World War II, John Okada’s No-No Boy is a pioneering example of the Asian American Bildungsroman. Published in 1957, No-No Boy was controversial from its initial reception, received little recognition, and was mostly shunned by Japanese American readership until Okada’s sudden death in 1971. No-No Boy was posthumously rediscovered by pioneer Asian..
Recommendations for diagnosing and managing individuals with glutaric aciduria type 1: third revision
No full textGlutaric aciduria type 1 is a rare inherited neurometabolic disorder of lysine metabolism caused by pathogenic gene variations in GCDH (cytogenic location: 19p13.13), resulting in deficiency of mitochondrial glutaryl-CoA dehydrogenase (GCDH) and, consequently, accumulation of glutaric acid, 3-hydroxyglutaric acid, glutaconic acid and glutarylcarnitine detectable by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (organic acids) and tandem mass spectrometry (acylcarnitines). Depending on residual GCDH activity, biochemical high and low excreting phenotypes have been defined. Most untreated individuals present with acute onset of striatal damage before age 3 (to 6) years, precipitated by infectious diseases, fever or surgery, resulting in irreversible, mostly dystonic movement disorder with limited life expectancy. In some patients, striatal damage develops insidiously. In recent years, the clinical phenotype has been extended by the finding of extrastriatal abnormalities and cognitive dysfunction, preferably in the high excreter group, as well as chronic kidney failure. Newborn screening is the prerequisite for pre-symptomatic start of metabolic treatment with low lysine diet, carnitine supplementation and intensified emergency treatment during catabolic episodes, which, in combination, have substantially improved neurologic outcome. In contrast, start of treatment after onset of symptoms cannot reverse existing motor dysfunction caused by striatal damage. Dietary treatment can be relaxed after the vulnerable period for striatal damage, that is, age 6 years. However, impact of dietary relaxation on long-term outcomes is still unclear. This third revision of evidence-based recommendations aims to re-evaluate previous recommendations (Boy et al., J Inherit Metab Dis, 2017;40(1):75–101; Kolker et al., J Inherit Metab Dis 2011;34(3):677–694; Kolker et al., J Inherit Metab Dis, 2007;30(1):5–22) and to implement new research findings on the evolving phenotypic diversity as well as the impact of non-interventional variables and treatment quality on clinical outcomes

Global Production Networks and Industrial Upgrading in China: The Case in Electronics Contract Manufacturing.
No full textThe paper analyzes the networks of U.S. and Taiwan based electronics contract manufacturers in South China, today the world´s most important location for low-cost mass production in the electronics industry. Based on extensive empirical research, the paper traces the production sites, the organization of manufacturing, and the workforce policies of contract manufacturers in the region, and discusses perspectives and limits of industrial upgrading, especially with regard to the role of labor. In theoretical terms, the author attempts to integrate an analysis of "global flagship networks" with concepts of industrial sociology.
