    Dr. Laurie L. Brown, M.D., and Ms. Manya Greene conducted this oral history interview on December 11, 1992 in the offices of Dr. Waitus O. Tanner, M.D., in Columbia, South Carolina. In this interview, Dr. Tanner discusses his family, educational background, career in medicine, and involvement in organized medicine. In particular, Tanner discusses his tenure as President of the South Carolina Medical Association (SCMA) from 1977 to 1978. Tanner also discusses the major issues in the field of medicine during his service on the council of SCMA and his tenure as president, which included: malpractice insurance, tort reform, PSRO, physician shortage and distribution across the state, and care quality and access. He also mentions issues within the association, which included: altering the influence of past presidents of the association, adjusting the election process for council members, constructing a building for the association, establishing a professional review organization (PSRO), and the influence of the Joint Underwriting Association (JUA)

    Time-of-flight ICP-MS laser ablation zircon geochronology: Assessment and comparison against quadrupole ICP-MS

    No full text
    This study presents U–Pb isotopic results from the mineral zircon measured by nanosecond laser ablation coupled to either a time-of-flight inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer (ICP-MS), a quadrupole ICP-MS or both via a split stream arrangement. Results show both ICP-MS types produce similar levels of precision and accuracy for most U–Pb ages in the mineral zircon. The time-of-flight ICP-MS however shows slight non-linearity at high detector counts (> 7000 for 238U) producing a bias in zircon U–Pb ages from published values outside analytical uncertainty. Use of 235U instead of 238U is shown to resolve the inaccuracy in the U–Pb age at the expense of analytical precision due to lower abundance of 235U. Trace element concentrations also measured along with U–Pb isotope data in zircon show the time-of-flight ICP-MS to provide similar accuracy and precision as the quadrupole ICP-MS, except for isotopes in regions around high intensity major element peaks (e.g. Zr) where accuracy and levels of detection of the time-of-flight ICP-MS are matrix dependent relative to the quadrupole ICP-MS. A comparison is made between the analytical capabilities of the time-of-flight ICP-MS and the quadrupole ICP-MS highlighting some advantages and disadvantages of the time-of-flight technology for zircon U–Pb geochronology

    The Old English Bede: Transmission and Textual History in Anglo-Saxon Manuscripts

    No full text
    An unknown author translated the Old English version of Bede’s Ecclesiastical History (OEB) around the ninth century. Previous research focused on the text’s authorship, specifically on Mercian linguistic features in its earliest manuscript, rather than the reception and transmission of its manuscripts (Miller, 1890; Whitelock, 1962; Kuhn, 1972). This thesis considers the OEB’s reception and transmission as evident in its copyists’ scribal performances. Conservative and innovative textual variants are identified for the OEB, and scribal behaviour categorised according to the framework devised by Benskin and Laing (1981) in their study of Middle English scribes. A detailed linguistic comparison of OEB witnesses combined with a close examination of the physical manuscripts reveals the working methods of scribes involved in their production. The manuscripts examined are: Oxford, Bodleian Library Tanner 10 (T) Oxford, Corpus Christi College 279B (O) Cambridge, Corpus Christi College 41 (B) Cambridge, University Library Kk.3.18 (Ca) Each chapter analyses a particular scribal performance. O’s scribe created a Mischsprache text, combining Mercian and West-Saxon forms, yet conflicting views of what constituted a good text are revealed by O’s producers’ extensive textual corrections. Relict forms in B demonstrate that its exemplar was illegible in places and that the scribe was forced to make several textual repairs. Ca has long been considered a direct copy of O, however my detailed comparison of the two manuscripts reveals that this cannot be the case. Finally, some previously unnoticed and unpublished drypoint annotations to O’s text are presented and explored in the context of other Anglo-Saxon scratched material. This thesis shows the benefits of examining the OEB from a scribal viewpoint, identifying common modes of scribal behaviour across the medieval period. It proposes a set of features belonging to the original translation, some of which hint at an earlier date of composition than previously supposed
