The Whittier House Social Settlement, the first settlement house in New Jersey, was established in Jersey City, N.J. (Hudson County) in 1894. Founded by Cornelia Foster Bradford, who would remain with the organization as headworker until 1926, Whittier House was based on the settlement house, Toynbee Hall, in England. Whittier House provided various recreational and educational programs, along with much needed social services, for the immigrant populations of Jersey City. Many of these successful services were used as models for large-scale social reform movements through the state. In 1935, the Whittier House was taken over by the Boys' Club of Jersey City

A versatile Lock-In digital Amplifier (LIdA): The case of mechanical resonances
The assembly of a Lock-In digital Amplifier (LIdA) from widely accessible ready-made modules is presented. This equipment, which does not require any advanced knowledge of electronics or programming, may introduce the experimenter to resonant techniques by registering mechanical resonances. The freely available control program allows for general data acquisition and further data processing. The apparatus is versatile and may corroborate the science and engineering laboratory in elasticity measurements or in a series of experiments where a modulated signal is a prerequisite.Accepted Author ManuscriptRST/Fundamental Aspects of Materials and Energ

Pope Francis: His Life and Thought by Mario I. Aguilar
The author poses clearly the meaning and goals of his book since its first page:to know and understand Pope Francis beyond his own myth. Aguilar shows us notan extraordinary and audacious pope, but a singular priest who encountered manyobstacles in his long career until he achieved the rank of cardinal during the lastyears of John Paul II?s pontificate. Aguilar knows that the most original aspect ofJorge Mario Bergoglio?s life is the long road he must have traveled to the papacy.His election in a conclave as pontiff had never been in his plans. Nevertheless,when the opportunity arrived, he showed himself fully prepared. Thus, Aguilardoes not focus on Francis?s pontificate; rather, he has chosen to tell us the completestory of Bergoglio?s life before his elevation.Fil: Lida, Miranda.
