This study identified important possible factors that lead to inequalities in medical care utilization for childhood diarrhea, fever, and cough in Ethiopia. In this study, household wealth status, maternal education, paternal education, maternal age, childhood age, childhood birth order, and maternal workload were identified as factors leading to inequality in health care utilization.. Household wealth status was consistently associated with the three outcome variables, in other words, medical treatment seeking behaviors for childhood diarrhea, cough, and fever. Mothers from households with the richest, richer, and middle wealth status had higher odds of seeking medical treatment than the ones from the poorest household. This finding is consistent with studies in Uganda and Ethiopia which showed that delays in care seeking for childhood fever were higher in the lowest socio-economic status than in the highest one [14, 15]. Moreover, this finding is in agreement with other studies in developing ...

In addition, it has been argued that levels of 2007; Krajbich et al., 2009). Furthermore, affective and social neuroscience are at stratification and collectivity are promptly perceived by the human brain due to the embodied nature of those types of interacting (Fiske et al., 2009). Additionally, an abundance of empirical evidence in favor of pluralprocesses of embodied cognition could be exp.Automatically and constantly scanning their social environments for these components. Last, provided the proposal that the emotional apparatus involved has early evolutionary origins, the types of behavior that make up these components of social conditions needs to be recognizable inside other species too, and in certain amongst those sitting closest to us on our evolutionary branch.Grid (or stratification) and group (or collectivity) fulfill all these criteria. They are universal aspects of social conditions. When individuals interact, they will behave in accordance with perceived ranking variations as ...

Since 1990, an ordinary Iraqi citizen has been dependant on the food ration[8] and at the same time had increasingly less opportunities to supplement it by purchases on the open market. The portion of income devoted to food increased with the decrease of income. The amount of food consumed by the Iraqi family with an average income in 1993 was only 31.3% of what that family had consumed in 1988[9]. By 1993 an average of 72 % of household incomes were used for the purchase of food[10]. FAO reported[11] in 1995 that the accessibility to food beyond the amounts provided through public rations has been limited by soaring food prices. The report slates that the Family Purchase Power Indicator (FPPI) for Iraq has been in constant decline.[12] Starting at 3.62 in 1990, the FPPI dropped to 0.15 in 1993, and to 0.06 in 1995. The post-1990 FPPI values are well below the 1.25 level which FAO considers as signal of household nutritional deficiency; such a level means that least 80% of a familys income is ...

Very ugly news has surfaced in the LPC policy discussion document which should guarantee that the Liberals never be allowed to govern again.. Ive written about the CHRCs latest efforts to implement Social Condition as a prohibited ground of discrimination in the CHRA here and here - it is a naked power grab which should be vigorously opposed.. What will Social Condition entail? Does the Sub-Prime Mortgage mess ring a bell: For instance, financial institutions may assume that all people who have low paying jobs are an unacceptable risk for a loan.. We were told during our consultations that complaints were filed with the Commission on behalf of single mothers denied mortgages because they were on welfare or could not meet minimum income requirements.. Id say goodbye property rights but we dont have any written in our charter.. Or, an employer may impose unnecessary job requirements that deny employment to capable people who have low literacy skills as a result of their social ...

PHNOM PENH, Cambodia - A deadly form of a common childhood illness has been linked to the mysterious child deaths in Cambodia that sparked alarm after a cause could not immediately be determined, health officials said Monday.Lab tests have confirmed that a virulent strain of hand, foot and mouth disease known as EV-71 is to blame for some of the 59 cases reviewed since April, including 52 deaths, according to a joint statement from the World Health Organization and Cambodian Health Ministry.

Vitamin A is essential for the functioning of the human immune system. In industrialized countries, foods like flour or sugar have been fortified with it for decades. But its not the same picture in some developing countries, where children with Vitamin A deficiency run the risk of dying from common childhood illnesses like measles. The cost of ensuring all children receive enough Vitamin A is peanuts: capsules cost just 2 cents each, but improve childrens chances of survival by as much as 25%. This episode of Life looks at the prospects for two very different Vitamin A distribution programs in Ghana and Guatemala, and asks whether the best way to ensure all children have access to the nutrients that can help them lead healthy, fulfilled lives isnt new, genetically-modified crops -- like the experimental Vitamin-A modified golden rice currently being developed in Professor Ingo Potrykus lab in Switzerland, as part of an initiative supported by the Rockefeller Foundation..

Fever . Fever and red cheeks make me immediately think of fifths disease - also known as slapped cheeks disease. It is caused by a virus called parvovirus b19 and is a very common childhood illness. It is usually harmless and does not require treatment unless the child also has a chronic disease that can predispose them to anemia such as sickle cell anemia. It can also be a concern if a pregnant woman has been exposed to someone with fifths disease. Below ive linked to website with more in-depth information on fifths disease. In the meantime, its important to keep your child comfortable and watch for signs of a more serious infection. red flags that we look for with fever to indicate something more serious is going on are: -fevers that last 5 days or more -fevers persistently above 104f orally -a child that acts very sick - very irritable or difficult to wake -difficulty breathing -vomiting, diarrhea, refusal to drink, or dehydration -a purple rash, esp on the legs (a red lacy rash on the ...

It is normal for kids to contract six to eight colds or other bugs in a year, and this time of year is particularly hard, said Dr. Ketura Talbot, a family practice physician with Mesa Primary Care. Many kids are in school or daycare and not afraid to touch anything they can get their little hands on. Add to that their young bodies, and youve got a perfect vector for spreadable germs. Here, Dr. Talbot discusses four common childhood illnesses parents should know about ...

Next, collective efficacy was added as a predictor in the level 3 model (Table 4, model 2). The analysis built in a correction for errors of measurement in this predictor (30). We found collective efficacy to be negatively related to violence (t = −5.95), net of all other effects, and to correspond to a standardized coefficient of −0.45. Hence, after social composition was controlled, collective efficacy was strongly negatively associated with violence. Moreover, the coefficients for social composition were substantially smaller than they had been without a control for collective efficacy. The coefficient for concentrated disadvantage, although still statistically significant, was 0.171 (as compared with 0.277). The difference between these coefficients (0.277 − 0.171 = 0.106) was significant (t = 5.30). Similarly, the coefficients for immigrant concentration and for residential stability were also significantly reduced: The coefficient for immigrant concentration, originally 0.041, was ...

Following due diligence and review of the transaction by relevant Committees, there are three potential outcomes, summarized below with select case studies.. Transaction Approved. Transaction Conditionally Approved Subject to Environmental and Social Conditions. Hydropower in a developing country: Goldman Sachs was asked to arrange a loan facility on behalf of a company developing a hydropower project for the national government. Through our review, we determined an Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA) was carried out pursuant to the host countrys law and standards, but did not meet international best practice. We engaged our Corporate Environmental Management team, which includes staff with technical environmental expertise. Working together, we were able to encourage our client to re-perform its ESIA according to IFC Performance Standards which are more stringent than local law in this case. The ESIA confirmed there were no significant environmental issues; however, there were a ...

Abstract The people of Colombia suffer from a deep spiral of internal conflicts and unstable social conditions. The aim of this study is to highlight inequality in Colombia by applying Charles Tillys theory of durable inequality through categorical pairs. A qualitative method is applied in order to gain deeper insight to inequality in Colombia. The essay examines the phenomenon by completing a content analysis. The breakdown is limited to four study categories: gender, crime, health and social stratification. Categorical inequality is further analysed through Tillys four mechanisms: exploitation, adaptation, emulation and opportunity hoarding. A coding scheme is used in order to heighten the reliability and validity. Code entities (study categories) are examined through specific code variables. The method is further improved by reinterpretation of the content and analysis of Tillys mechanisms. Results confirm the serious condition of internal conflicts in Colmbia. Social stratifiction have ...

Extreme poverty, overcrowded slums, lack of access to sanitation are some of the precarious social conditions that have caused coronavirus to spread among the most vulnerable in Colombias port cities, among them, two of the most important on the Caribbean coast - Barranquilla and Cartagena - and largest on the Pacific Ocean, Buenaventura.. As cases of COVID-19 continue to increase across the country, with 43,682 in total, Barranquilla on Wednesday reported 17 of the days 61 fatalities with more victims in nearby Soledad (5), as well as rural townships of Malambo, Ciénaga and Galapa in the department of Atlántico.. A similar tragedy is unfolding in Buenaventura, home to a predominately Afro-Colombian population, and whose proximity to the departmental capital Cali has facilitated the spread of the contagion among both populations. According to the mayor of Buenaventura Víctor Hugo Vidal, the high numbers of infection have exposed deep social and economic inequalities between the Pacific ...

Introduction. The analysis of pregnancy in Pietro the Fool and Peruonto Mathilde Jourdan Foundations in World Cultures - AHUM 1416-3 Dr. Gabrielle Popoff October 14th 2009 Both short folk stories Pietro the Fool by Giovanfrancesco Straparola and Peruonto by Giambattista Basile tell of a poor, dim and common boy who, upon being insulted by a girl from an upper social class, makes her pregnant by means of magic - and eventually marries her. Both Pietro and Peruonto are luckless heroes whose fortunes are changed by this magic act of conception. The theme of pregnancy reveals a lot about gender roles, social class issues and the kind of patriarchic society the heroes live in. It ties together all kinds of interesting aspects of life in those times. Hence by analyzing these stories, one can get a better idea of the social conditions of the time those characters live in. These tales reflect a male viewpoint in which the hero seeks revenge for the emasculating comments made by a young ...

The referendums outcome leaves the government exposed against peoples will. There is a question openly put: what is the new social condition on which the new, left- wing partys memorandum will be based? The answer is obvious even for the ignorant ones, the ones who voted for

Baldwin encapsulates the problem of whiteness and identifies distrust as a key - distrust of oneself and distrust of others. Recognizing white privilege is a first step to simply being aware of the world and this distrust. Using that privilege to undermine the social relations that create that inequality is a radical act we must take up as white people within this movement if we are to become a real threat to the established order.. Widespread anger at social conditions, periodic rebellions and protests around discrete injustices, isolated movements, various forms of counter-culture, small-scale utopian projects or lifestyle politics always exist, but rarely transform society by themselves. Moments that have transformative potential are products of intense crisis coupled with broad based movements that feed off of each other. We are living through one of these crises now, and the Occupy movement seems to be a first step down what will be a very long road that will hopefully lead to a different ...

20] The United States deep social problems are all the more disturbing because the nation enjoys exceptional per capita wealth among the major western nations (Barro and McCleary; Kasman; PEW; UN Development Programme, 2000, 2004). Spending on health care is much higher as a portion of the GDP and per capita, by a factor of a third to two or more, than in any other developed democracy (UN Development Programme, 2000, 2004). The U.S. is therefore the least efficient western nation in terms of converting wealth into cultural and physical health. Understanding the reasons for this failure is urgent, and doing so requires considering the degree to which cause versus effect is responsible for the observed correlations between social conditions and religiosity versus secularism. It is therefore hoped that this initial look at a subject of pressing importance will inspire more extensive research on the subject. Pressing questions include the reasons, whether theistic or non-theistic, that the ...

Sibling Identity and relationships asks what it means to be a sister or brother, a relationship which has tended to be sidelined in foregrounding parental-child relations. It charts the emotional and social facets to their ongoing constructions, shifts and changes. The authors interestingly combine social constructionist and psychodynamic perspectives as a means of discussing complex, shared, emotions, such as sibling projective identification, connection and separation. Such emotions are seen to be shaped by and respond to varying social conditions and circumstances. In answering the question why siblings? the authors point to the significance of siblings for our sense of self, whether that self be constructed as similar to or vastly different from our sisters and brothers.. Each author positions herself by disciplinary background as well as by sibling status: in the rehearsal and displacement of oldest, middle and youngest child syndrome myths, many other readers may well consider ...

Sadly, WHO statistics show that 11 percent of children living in the world are born to teens aged 15-19 years. When we look at the study closely, we find that women who delivered a child before their 20th birthday mostly have grown up in lower-income families, under adverse social conditions and minimal education. On top of all these, bearing a child denies a woman of her education and career growth resulting in stress and financial crunches as well. Stress can have a toll on a persons overall well-being and needs to be controlled before it devastates the individual. Read more on ways to curb stress at www.firsteatright.com ...

The word History comes from the Greek word - historia, meaning knowledge acquired by investigation, it is the study of the human past; a chronological record of significant events (as affecting a nation or institution) often including an explanation of their causes.. Each February, we celebrate and take time out to acknowledge the contributions that individuals and organizations of the African Diaspora made not only to and within the United States of America but around the World. Black History Month is celebrated annually in the United States (US) and Canada in February and the United Kingdom in the month of October. Historian Carter G. Woodson founded Negro History Week in 1926, to honor two Americans who greatly influenced the lives and social condition of African-Americans: former President Abraham Lincoln and abolitionist former slave Frederick Douglass. Woodson chose the second week of February because it marked their birthdays.. According to the U.S. Census Bureau there are more than 41 ...

President Obama launched his My Brothers Keeper initiative Thursday, calling on public and private entities to create more opportunities for young minority men and break down social conditions that keep them impoverished and imprisoned in disproportionate numbers.Shortly after the announcement, senior White House adviser Valerie Jarrett appeared on The OReilly Factor to discuss the gangsta culture perpetrated by the rappers children idolize

The environmental and social conditions that indigenous communities interact with the external environment are characterized by a constantly increasing degree of complexity. The interaction between different cultures can be considered a multifaceted process of negotiation. It is well acknowledged that the use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) for indigenous cultural preservation and revitalization can lead to several challenges. In this context, Indigenous Knowledge (IK) represents a critical resource that needs to be focused towards specific processes and governance activities. The early efforts in knowledge management were on technologies to store, capture, and distribute knowledge, while the focus at present has shifted to make explicit, the tacit knowledge, but the development is more conceptual than practical. This study focuses on exploring the patterns of Indigenous Knowledge Management (IKM) and the supporting of a governance system of communities. Based on generic ...

Does this search for a better lifestyle give them a better life? The environmental and social conditions they live in provide the status of living in Mumbai but have they in any way been uplifted to a better living standard? Are they more secure, or financially better off or healthier? Can these answers be affirmative? Ill share a story about the domestic-help working in my local community - a migrant from Rajasthan. When asked how secure he was in this city. He replied candidly, We have our own people staying together and if there is any need we rely on them. On being asked what he did with the money he earned and where did he save/deposit his savings, he replied I take all my savings back home and save there. Does this confirm that theyre secure and have a better life in villages? ...

at home, having one-to-one care and the local GP visiting if there was a problem. Indeed, since the continued medicalisation of childbirth we are constantly bombarded with the ever increasing numbers of assisted or operative births. Therefore, birth within a consultant led maternity unit is now the norm. There is little doubt that the challenges faced daily by those at the coalface are also increasing, and there are women with medical, physical and social conditions who require highly complex care that is now provided in maternity units. We need modern midwives to respond to this demand, and so far they do. It could be argued that we have lost sight of the basic skills midwives relied upon in the past.1 However, these skills have been replaced with an enormous range of new and equally important ones that suit childbirth in the 21st Century.. Despite several significant government reports, beginning with Changing Childbirth in 1993,2 looking at normalising birth and another led by Dame ...

Professor Simone Fullagar is Professor of Sport and Physical Cultural Studies in the University of Baths Department for Health. Mental health professionals, NGOs and a variety of service-user groups have all called for greater funding for local and global mental health services, as well as for greater parity of esteem between these services and broader health policy and service provision in the UK. The Mental Health Taskforces 2016 report details the need to address chronic under-spending on mental health services in the UK as demand continues to increase and inequalities widen. NHS spending is increasing in areas that support a medicalised response to mental health issues, with prescriptions for antidepressant medication doubling over the last decade in the UK. The taskforces report recommends a billion-pound investment in 2020/21 and calls for fresh thinking to shift cultural attitudes that stigmatise mental ill health as an individualised problem. Recently Theresa May announced a review of ...

The mysterious illness that has killed dozens of Cambodian children may be a deadly strain of hand, foot and mouth disease, a common childhood illness, according to health officials

HANOI - Vietnam has said that an outbreak of hand, foot and mouth disease has killed 156 people, mostly children, and sickened more than 96,000 through late November. An official at the Ministry of Health said today that the average number of weekly cases dropped from about 3,000 in September to 2,460 in November. This years outbreak is a sharp uptick from recent years. Since 2008, about 10,000 to 15,000 cases were reported per year with about 20 to 30 children dying annually. The common childhood illness typically causes little more than a fever and rash, and most recover quickly. On Monday, the United States Centres for Disease Control and Prevention issued a travel alert urging people visiting Vietnam to protect themselves from the disease by practicing healthy personal hygiene.

Chickenpox is a common childhood illness caused by a virus. Children with chickenpox need to stay home from school and daycare. Children can now have free chickenpox immunisation.

Social determinants of health are conditions in which people are born, grow, learn, work, play, live, and age. These conditions affect a wide range of forces and systems shaping health outcomes and risks. Conditions associated with these various environments (e.g., school, workplace, and neighborhood) are referred to as place. The place terminology applies to both physical, material settings (such as schools and homes) and invisible social forces such as patterns of social engagement, perceived safety, and belongingness. When social systems focus on research through the lens of place and social determinants of health, policies and programs can greatly influence population health outcomes. Housing is a significant social determinant of health since homes and neighborhoods represent physical and social conditions which can greatly affect individual and population health. Until recently, data have not been available to provide nationally representative estimates of health indicators among HUD ...

This book challenges the conventional view of tractarianism as an episode in church history, and the assumption that tractarians had little interest in the social condition of England. It argues that, by a natural application of their theory of the churchs primacy over the state, first-generation tractarians in fact directed a vigorous commentary against the iniquities of commercialism, political economy and the new poor law, and the condition of the labouring poor. This conclusion is derived in part from conventional sources for tractarian thought, such as manuscript, homiletic, and pamphlet material. However, the book also makes systematic use of two neglected though rich polemical sources: the British Critic, a quarterly periodical for whose editorial control John Henry Newman successfully manoeuvred in the late 1830s, and the canon of social novels issued by some of tractarianisms prolific yet forgotten commentators, in particular William Gresley and Francis Edward Paget. The book complements

Historically, positivism has been criticized for its reductionism, i.e., for contending that all processes are reducible to physiological, physical or chemical events, social processes are reducible to relationships between and actions of individuals, and that biological organisms are reducible to physical systems.[62] Max Horkheimer criticized the classic formulation of positivism on two grounds. First, he claimed that it falsely represented human social action.[63] The first criticism argued that positivism systematically failed to appreciate the extent to which the so-called social facts it yielded did not exist out there, in the objective world, but were themselves a product of socially and historically mediated human consciousness.[63] Positivism ignored the role of the observer in the constitution of social reality and thereby failed to consider the historical and social conditions affecting the representation of social ideas.[63] Positivism falsely represented the object of ...

Contact between Native Americans and Europeans during the Columbian Exchange led to lethal syndemics within the Native American population due to diseases introduced which the Native Americans had not encountered before and had not built-up immunity to.[citation needed] An example of a syndemic from the 19th century can be found on the reservations on which Native Americans were confined with the closing of the U.S. frontier. It is estimated that in 1860 there were well over 10 million bison living on the American Plains. By the early 1880s, the last of the great herds of bison upon which Plains Indian peoples like the Sioux were dependent as a food source were gone. At the same time, after the U.S. militarys defeat at the Battle of the Little Bighorn in 1876, there was a concerted effort to beat the Sioux into total submission. Thus, in 1872, Secretary of the Interior Columbus Delano stated: as they become convinced that they can no longer rely upon the supply of game for their support, they ...

Our qualitative analyses emphasise how intervention expectation is a product of its social context. We find that a social condition characterised by a poverty of drug treatment opportunity and a culture of rationed expectation in relation to access to care frame perspectives of hope and expectation related to the promise of methadone. The combination of the salience of the addiction recovery narrative and the norm of the limited recovery effect linked to current drug treatment options heightens hope for recovery through methadone. The strong desire for recovery is envisaged as a return to normalcy, symbolised by a renewal of citizenship and social inclusion, which rehab has largely failed to deliver, despite its narrative of recovery promise. Methadone offers an alternative technology of recovery hope, not only for individuals but also for community, and hence the apparent social acceptability of methadones proposed implementation.. While some post-AIDS drug policies of the West are ...

Geographic characteristics and social conditions in rural and remote areas often mean greater difficulty in terms of providing aged care services. This, in turn, inevitably causes concern over spatial eqity in the distribution of aged care services. This paper aims to address the spatial equity issue by analysing aged care services (both residential and community-based aged care services) by four geographic categories: capital cities, other metropolitan areas, rural areas and remote areas. Nursing home patients, multi-purpose services and services approved under the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Aged Care strategy are included in the analysis in order to get a more complete picture of available resources. Current until 30 June 2001.. ...

This study is part of the University of Californias Five-Year Study of anti-Semitism in the United States. As a result of the outbreak of Black rioting during the summer of 1964, it was decided to expand the proposed Black subsample of the national sample to a larger Black oversample in order to study the climate of opinion in the Black American community. These Black respondents were selected by drawing five samples: one general metropolitan sample and four urban samples from Chicago, New York, Atlanta, and Birmingham. Questions were asked about the respondents present economic and social positions as well as the economic and social conditions in their childhood. Respondents opinions on civil rights issues as well as attitudes toward authority and treatment of Blacks in the existing system were investigated. A section of the questionnaire was devoted to the respondents attitudes toward Jews and other groups.. ...

NAWAF SALAM ( Lebanon) condemned the acts of piracy and armed robbery in the Gulf of Guinea, calling for a strong response at all levels. Countries of the region must be supported in their efforts to eliminate piracy; and domestic and international law against piracy must be harmonized. He welcomed joint patrols by countries in the region as well as other cooperation and called them to step up their coordination. Region-wide planning and a joint protection force should also be encouraged. He thanked the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime for the support it had provided and called for the Council to provide further support to the countries in the region. He welcomed the proposal of the Secretary-General to deploy an assessment mission. As was true in East Africa, however, security efforts to end piracy must be combined with efforts to improve the economic and social conditions in the region and to fight poverty and unemployment. Capacity-building for Governments and forces in the region ...

The impact of poverty on rural youth by Wayne L. Larson; 1 edition; First published in 1969; Subjects: Attitudes, Economic conditions, High school students, Rural poor, Social conditions

OK, thats a fair question. Im not really competent to answer, but before giving it a shot, let me say what I would like to see from an honest right. Were talking about questions of cultural development and formation, of how values, attitudes and skills are transmitted through generations, and of how and why different regions of the world have differed in these regards over a long period. These are immensely complicated questions that we have barely begun to study, let alone understand. The social conditions we see around us were the work of centuries; weve had maybe three generations now to try to get a grip on them. The modern disciplines of sociology, anthropology, and economics came into being only around 1900, and modern biological sciences (to the extent those are relevant, as youve suggested they are) are even more recent than that. An honest right, I think, would take note of this and show some humility about jumping to massively consequential policy conclusions, especially ...

This data collection describes the social conditions of the older population of the United States in the late nineteenth century. Variables include personal characteristics such as age, sex, marital status, race, birthplace, number of children, and occupation of sampled older persons. Detailed information, extracted from the 1880 United States Census manuscript census schedules, is provided on household composition and family structure. In addition, occupational and ethnic characteristics of family heads appearing on the same sampled census page as the older person (on census pages grouped by street location) are reported. The data collection consists of three independent samples: (1) a national sample, (2) a Southern urban sample, and (3) a Southern Black sample. Older Blacks are over-represented in the Southern urban and Southern Black samples in order to focus on their family experiences in the urban and rural South.. ...

However, if instead of identifying and addressing the violent social conditions that lead to emotional and behavioural dysfunction, we attribute any dysfunctionalities to a supposed diseased brain, flawed genes or a chemical imbalance in the brain, then we open the door to psychiatric violence under the label treatment. See, for example, Anatomy of an Epidemic: Magic Bullets, Psychiatric Drugs, and the Astonishing Rise of Mental Illness in America, and Psychocracy and Community and 12 Shocking Facts About the Dangers of Psychiatric Drugs. And this psychiatric violence has catastrophic consequences for society.. For some insight into the nature and extent of these consequences - which include dramatically increased violence, suicide and criminal behaviour - see the work of Dr Peter R. Breggin - the conscience of psychiatry - whose research includes his probing critique of the psychopharmaceutical complex. See Medication Madness: The Role of Psychiatric Drugs in Cases of ...

How Far Have We Come? Almost 20 years after first declaring A local State of Emergency due to the AIDS epidemic, the city of Oakland continues to be disproportionately impacted.. Dr. Neena Murgai, Deputy Director of Epidemiology and Surveillance for the Alameda County office of AIDS, has been tracking HIV & AIDS in the county. According to Murgai, over half of all HIV cases in Alameda County are still diagnosed in Oakland.. The epidemic is most concentrated in the Oakland and Oakland area, Murgai said. As we know from a lot of the other data, Oakland area is the area of greatest burden of several health conditions that are associated with higher concentrations of poverty and other social conditions.. In the early years of the epidemic, before a test for HIV infection was available, California required all county health departments to track AIDS cases - individuals who had developed the disease because of their underlying HIV infection. When a test for HIV infection was developed, cases of ...

7658 adults, 562 children and 1582 pregnant women and their newborns in two areas supplied with water different in TDS. One of these areas was supplied with water lower in minerals (mean values: TDS 134 mg/l, calcium 18.7 mg/l, magnesium 4.9 mg/l, bicarbonates 86.4 mg/l) and the other was supplied with water higher in minerals (mean values: TDS 385 mg/l, calcium 29.5 mg/l, magnesium 8.3 mg/l, bicarbonates 243.7 mg/l). Water levels of ulphate, chloride, sodium, potassium, copper, zinc, manganese and molybdenum were also determined. The populations of the two areas did not differ from each other in eating habits, air quality, social conditions and time of residence in the respective areas. The population of the area supplied with water lower in minerals showed higher incidence rates of goiter, hypertension, ischemic heart disease, gastric and duodenal ulcers, chronic gastritis, cholecystitis and nephritis. Children living in this area exhibited slower physical development and more growth ...

The study was based on qualitative semi-structured interviews with six youths, three hip hop directors and a well-known researcher who has investigated that Hip Hop pedagogy.. The results show that there are many benefits of learning that takes place in the context of hip hop music; from my informants statements one can accordingly see the role of hip hop music plays in the absorption of knowledge. The conclusion is that hip hop music can lead to alternative learning about politics and society, as the music often deals with various social conditions and policy issues. This I have been able to deduce from my informants statements where they through hip hop creation gain knowledge, partly by listening to hip hop music and partly by writing hip hop lyrics which in its turn developed their political thinking. I have also come to the conclusion that young people through hip hop creation expand their vocabulary, developing their ability to express themselves in different ways during the composition ...

The following statement was handed to President Wilson on behalf of the signers by Congressman Julius Kahn on March 4th, 1919, for transmission to the Peace Conference at Paris. The Statement was prepared conjointly by the Rev. Dr. Henry Berkowitz, of Philadelphia, Mr. Max Senior, of Cincinatti, and Professor Morris Jastrow, Jr., of the University of Pennsylvania. As a future form of government for Palestine will undoubtedly be considered by the approaching Peace Conference, we, the undersigned citizens of the United States, unite in this statement, setting forth our objections to the organization of a Jewish State in Palestine as proposed by the Zionist Societies in this country and Europe and to the segregation of the Jews as a nationalistic unit in any country.. We feel that in so doing we are voicing the opinion of the majority of American Jews born in this country and of those foreign born who have lived here long enough to thoroughly assimilate American political and social conditions. The ...

Another variation is in our definition of participation. A person who may be in agreement with certain matters in principle, may disagree as to what the proper method is to induce the changes we seek. It is custom in our culture to take pride in the elections - even if it is apparent, paradoxically, the futility of relying on this ritual. With a signature enthusiasm, we will be told to vote in the next election - that if we dont vote, we cannot complain about the deprived social conditions that we are subjected to. That more people should vote - and, of course, if we could only get an honest fellow in office, the problems would evaporate, simply, as a puddle evaporates after a storm. Come election time, that collective enthusiasm is demonstrated by many educated people - that we ought not to be cynical, that we ought to vote and the hysterical insistence that it does make a very large difference. There is additional frustration here, because, though the enthusiasm and authenticity of the ...

Of course the conditions of which I speak are now passing away; but they are still to be found in the remoter districts. I have lived in districts where no case of theft had occurred for hundreds of years, where the newly-built prisons of Meiji remained empty and useless, where the people left their doors unfastened by night as well as by day. These facts are familiar to every Japanese. In such a district, you might recognize that the kindness shown to you, as a stranger, is the consequence of official command; but how explain the goodness of the people to each other? When you discover no harshness, no rudeness, no dishonesty, no breaking of laws, and learn that this social condition has been the same for centuries, you are tempted to believe that you have entered into the domain of a morally superior humanity. All this soft urbanity, impeccable honesty, ingenuous kindliness of speech and act, you might naturally interpret as conduct directed by perfect goodness of heart. And the simplicity that ...

This is something worth exploring a bit-precisely from a materialist standpoint and in relation to our communist outlook and communist objectives. First of all, it is necessary to recognize that while death is universal for human beings-all human beings die, sooner or later-there is not one common viewpoint about death: people in different social conditions have different experiences with and different viewpoints on all kinds of phenomena, including death.. In this connection, I was thinking of a statement attributed to Mao near the end of his life-I believe it was in a letter that he was reported to have written to Chiang Ching in which he talked about what he had tried to achieve through the revolution in China, and as part of the world revolution, and the ways in which hed run up against obstacles in this. His statement was something to the effect that human life is finite, but revolution is infinite. Now (assuming he said this) I dont think Mao meant this literally-that revolution is ...

No claim is laid to the authorship of this poem. It wandered away from the brain-corral of its composer during the drouth seasons of 1890-94 without a brand and was seized upon and reprinted, with numerous variations, by the frontier press of that time. The original was full of rough, stumbling lines. Some of these have been omitted, others revised. But the poem, with all its crudities, is one of the most faithful pictures of a certain period and social condition in all western literature. As such it finds a here.] ...
