Letter from Timothy Donahue to his brother John, 7 August 1916
No full textTimothy Donahue writes from Eagle, Pass, Texas, to his brother John C. Donahue (possibly in Concord, New Hampshire) on 7 August 1916; he describes his recent activities as a member of Company F of the Vermont National Guard stationed at the U.S.-Mexico border, a ten mile hike they went on recently, and the YMCA building in their camp. Other members of the company include their brother Dewey Donahue and men from Northfield, Vermont. He saw that his letter (possibly written to Anna Welch of Northfield, Vermont) had been published in the Northfield News; he hadn't intended for it to be posted in the newspaper. He asks for family news and what their father thought of "his french girl."Timothy Michael Donahue (1893-1973) of Northfield, Vermont, served in the Vermont National Guard during the Mexican Border Crisis and in the U.S. Army during World War I. His parents ran the Norwich University mess hall for many years
How access to public transit may have saved many Americans’ homes during the Great Recession
No full textThe Great Recession which followed the 2008 financial crash saw massive increases in the number of homes being foreclosed and trillions wiped from homeowners’ equity. But the impact of the recession was not uniform across the country in all places. In new research, Timothy F. Welch, Steven R. Gehrke and Steven Farber look at the effects of access to public transport on house prices during the Great Recession. They find that houses less than a mile from stations in Atlanta, Baltimore or Portland all kept their value to a greater degree than those located farther away from stations.They suggest that this may be down to lower transport-related costs, better local economic conditions and greater access to employment opportunities
A bikeshare station area typology to forecast the station-level ridership of system expansion
No full textThe continuous introduction and expansion of docked bikeshare systems with publicly available origin-destination data have opened exciting avenues for bikeshare research. In response, a flux of recent studies has examined the sociodemographic determinants and safety or natural environment deterrents of system ridership. An increasing abundance of disaggregate spatial data has also spurred recent calls for research aimed at extending the utility of these contextual data to model bikeshare demand and trip patterns. As planners and operators seek to expand bikeshare services into underserved areas, a need exists to provide a data-driven understanding of the spatial dynamics of bikeshare use. This study of the Washington, DC, metro region's Capital Bikeshare (CaBi) program answers this call by performing a latent class cluster analysis to identify five bikeshare station area types based on variation in a set of land development pattern, urban design, and transportation infrastructure features. This typology is integrated into a planning application exploring the potential for system expansion into nearby jurisdictions and forecasting the associated trip-making potential between existing and proposed station locations.Gehrke, Steven R.; Welch, Timothy F..

Letter from Dewey Donahue to his brother John, 6 August [1916?]
No full textJeremiah Dewey Donahue writes from Eagle, Pass, Texas, to his brother John C. Donahue on 6 August 1916; he describes his recent activities as a member of Company F of the Vermont National Guard stationed at the U.S.-Mexico border. Members of the company included their brother Timothy Donahue and other men from Northfield, Vermont; both he and Timothy were vaccinated for small pox but it didn't work on them; a letter Timothy wrote to Anna Welch was published in the Northfield News. He also mentions an accident that badly burned one of their cooks.Timothy Michael Donahue (1893-1973) of Northfield, Vermont, served in the Vermont National Guard during the Mexican Border Crisis and in the U.S. Army during World War I.

Is NAFTA economic integration?
No full textMost economists agree that trade liberalization raises incomes and living standards. To achieve trade liberalization, though, countries must sometimes first reach trade agreements. And trade agreements, as William Gruben and John Welch observe, may intertwine elements of both liberalization and protectionism. As an example, Gruben and Welch examine the negotiation process that preceded passage of the North American Free Trade Agreement. ; Is NAFTA economic integration? Although some authors think so, Gruben and Welch believe that interpreting NAFTA purely as economic integration is misleading. A more useful way to interpret NAFTA, they claim, is to start by recognizing it as the latest synthesis of an ongoing conflict between those who support trade liberalization and those who want trade protectionism. NAFTA offers broad-based trade openings, but it still contains restrictively protectionist components. In considering the efforts of trade liberalization advocates and trade protectionists, the authors also attempt to show how members of these pressure groups form alliances, disguise their efforts, and otherwise attempt to achieve their goals.North American Free Trade Agreement
Developing and implementing a policy for consensual sex between inpatients
No full textThe chapter, "Developing and implementing a policy for consensual sex between inpatients" was written by the listed authors including Steven Welch (Douglas College Faculty).Part of the "Chronic Mental Illness" series (Volume 7).Sexuality and Serious Mental Illness is the first book to draw together the collective wisdom and experience of clinicians, advocates, consumers, researchers, legal experts and administrators. The research reflects a current understanding of the complexities of sexual activity among persons with chronic mental illness in a variety of settings. Sexuality and Serious Mental Illness is particularly timely in view of recent emphases on patient choice, recovery and advocacy, and can be used to provide guidance to clinicians, mental health administrators, policymakers, advocates and researchers. --From publisher description.Published
Chiasmus Bibliography
No full textIntroduction
John W. Welch
In 1978, my colleagues and I completed our work on Chiasmus in Antiquity, which was published in 1981 by Gerstenberg Verlag in Hildesheim, Germany. That volume contained a bibliography generated mainly by Robert F. Smith. Over the past two decades, I have continued to collect bibliographical information on numerous books and articles that either speak about or make use of chiasmus. Those additional sources have been included here, expanding the earlier bibliography, in an effort to be as comprehensive as possible. These items are presented alphabetically by author, and again in four main categories. Brief annotations and a citation index have also been supplied.https://scholarsarchive.byu.edu/mi/1020/thumbnail.jp
Precision Synthesis of Silicon Nanowires with Crystalline Core and Amorphous Shell
No full textA synthetic route to crystalline silicon (Si) nanowires with an amorphous Si shell is reported. Trisilane (Si3H8) and Sn(HMDS)(2) are decomposed in supercritical toluene at 450 degrees C. Sn(HMDS)(2) creates Sn nanoparticles that seed Si nanowire growth by the supercritical fluid-liquid-solid (SFLS) mechanism. The Si : Sn ratio in the reaction determines the growth of amorphous Si shell. No amorphous shell forms at relatively low Si : Sn ratios of 20 : 1, whereas higher Si : Sn ratio of 40 : 1 leads to significant amorphous shell. We propose that hydrogen evolved from trisilane decomposition etches away the Sn seed particles as nanowires grow, which promotes the amorphous Si shell deposition when the higher Si : Sn ratios are used.Robert A.
