  • Evaluation of Factors That Initiate Or Propagate Epidemic Coxiellosis in the U.S
    United States Department of Evaluation of Factors that Would Agriculture Animal and Initiate or Propagate Epidemic Plant Health Inspection Service Coxiellosis in the U.S. Veterinary Services Centers for Domesticated Goat Population Epidemiology and Animal Health June 2013 Suggested bibliographical citation for this report: USDA. (2012). Evaluation of factors that would initiate or propagate epidemic coxiellosis in the U.S. domesticated goat population. USDA:APHIS:VS:Centers for Epidemiology and Animal Health. Fort Collins, CO. June 2013. 104 pages. Abstract Coxiellosis is a zoonosis caused by Coxiella burnetii, an intracellular Gram-negative bacterium that is prevalent globally. Many animal species are susceptible to infection by C. burnetii, including ruminants, domestic carnivores, wildlife mammals, birds, and arthropods. The clinical presentation of coxiellosis is non- specific in most animals, with the exception of ruminants where coxiellosis is responsible for reduced fertility, abortions, and stillbirths during late gestation, as well as low birth weight. In humans, two clinical patterns of Q fever are observed. The acute disease resembles a flu-like syndrome, and is usually a self-limiting febrile illness during which pneumonia or hepatitis can occur. The chronic disease is a severe and possibly fatal illness. Q fever can lead to abortions, stillbirth, or premature deliveries in pregnant women. In fewer than 5 percent of the cases it causes chronic illness which includes endocarditis and chronic fatigue syndrome. In 2005, coxiellosis was diagnosed for the first time in ruminants in the Netherlands as a cause of abortion on a dairy goat farm. In 2006, 2007, 2008, and 2009, six, seven, seven, and six new cases, respectively, were confirmed on other dairy goat farms.

  • Supporting Teen Families: an Assessment of Youth Childbearing in Australia and Early Interventions to Improve Education Outcomes of Young Parents
    Supporting Teen Families: An Assessment of Youth Childbearing in Australia and Early Interventions to Improve Education Outcomes of Young Parents Heidi Hoffmann Institute for Social Science Research, The University of Queensland Sergi Vidal Centre for Demographic Studies, Autonomous University of Barcelona No. 2017-12 June 2017 NON-TECHNICAL SUMMARY While the rate of births to teenage parents continue to decline in Australia, adolescent pregnancy and parenthood remain a core social and public health concern. This report firstly describes the context of Australian teenage pregnancy and parenthood, and outlines some of the challenges and barriers teenage parents face before and after childbirth. Secondly, we identify and describe existing programs that work to support pregnant and parenting teenagers reconnect with their schooling and further their education. Recent Australian research of patterns, drivers, and consequences of teenage pregnancy and parenthood show that rates vary across different states, regions, and sub-groups. Rates of teenage pregnancy and parenthood are at their highest in remote and rural areas, and highest among adolescents who identify as Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander. Adolescent parenthood is related to complex disadvantage, across multiple forms, including health and wellbeing, education, and employment. The disadvantage is evident prior to childbearing, and is a risk-factor of teenage pregnancy and parenthood. These disadvantages are seen to persist over the mother’s life, and may be transmitted to their children. Australian research highlights the relationship between disadvantage, teenage pregnancy and parenthood, and low educational goals and achievements. With this in mind, we conducted a rapid review of programs that aimed to support adolescent parents in the educational domain.

  • Title Multiple Public Spheres in the Japan Times During World Warii
    Multiple Public Spheres in the Japan Times during World Title WarII: Focusing on the Asama Maru Incident(1940) Author(s) MATSUNAGA, Tomoko Citation Lifelong education and libraries (2011), 11: 133-146 Issue Date 2011-11 URL http://hdl.handle.net/2433/152086 Right Type Departmental Bulletin Paper Textversion publisher Kyoto University 133 Multiple Public Spheres in the Japan Times during World WarⅡ: Focusing on the Asama Maru Incident(1940) Tomoko MATSUNAGA Abstract: This study examines the public sphere in English-language newspapers in Japan during the Second World War. Focusing on the Japan Times, which was the biggest one, this paper shows that it was English, functioning as an international language that enabled this unique public sphere.The Japan Times was established to improve Japanese international relations. Founded in 1897 with the support of the government, businessmen and researchers, the Japan Times was the first English-language newspaper in Japan to be edited and managed by Japanese. Unlike contemporary English-language papers owned by Westerners, it presented Japanese perspectives and opinions to the Western World. It was welcomed by the Japanese at first, but subscribers didn‘t increase to the extent that was expected because of the small population of people who could read English in Japan at that time. Although the paper was expected to function as Japanese propaganda after the Manchurian incident in 1931, it maintained a broad readership and a mix of content and wide range of opinions, not similar to their privately owned counterparts. Closed to Japanese but open to foreigners, not only Westerners but also Asians, it presented multiple public spheres to the world.

  • Descendants of Thomas WILLSON
    Descendants of Thomas WILLSON First Generation 1. Thomas WILLSON was born circa 1715 in Shropshire, England. Thomas married Anne BAYLEY on 2 Sep 1736 in Saint Julian, Shrewsbury, Shropshire, England.1 Anne was born circa 1715 in Shropshire, England. Children from this marriage were: 2 F i. Shuzana WILSON was born in 1739 in Condover, Shropshire, England and was baptised on 5 Nov 1739 in Condover, Shropshire, England.2 3 F ii. Anne WILSON was born in 1742 in Condover, Shropshire, England, was baptised on 7 Jun 1742 in Condover, Shropshire, England,2 and died on 24 Dec 1742 in Condover, Shropshire, England. 4 M iii. William WILSON was born in 1744 in Condover, Shropshire, England and was baptised on 26 Feb 1744 in Condover, Shropshire, England.2 + 5 M iv. Thomas WILSON3 was born on 15 Feb 1747 in Condover, Shropshire, England.4 6 M v. Joseph WILSON was born in 1749 in Condover, Shropshire, England and was baptised on 4 Jun 1749 in Condover, Shropshire, England.2 Second Generation (Children) 5. Thomas WILSON3 was born on 15 Feb 1747 in Condover, Shropshire, England.4 General Notes: Thomas Wilson is a best guess at this point in time based on IGI records. Some concern about this Thomas (Shown as Willson) is that Condover is NW of Shewsbury by 9miles and Alberbury is 4miles SW of Shrewsbury, which in those days was a considerable distance. So this Thomas and his antecedents should be considered as possibles only. Thomas married Mary FOX3,5 on 31 Jan 1768 in Alberbury, Shropshire, England.6 Mary was born circa 1750 in Shropshire, England.

As those studies proceeded two important questions or observations emerged. Why was so little known of this important architect, and why was he not accorded a proper position in the history of architecture, American or Australian? Over succeeding years the first question has been answered by people similarly concerned: Mark L. Peisch, H. Allen Brooks, W. R. Hasbrouck, Paul E. Sprague, D. T.

President AFOMP, Sr. Professor Radiological Physics, SMS Medical College, Jaipur, India Abstract Wu, Dr. Colin Orton Dr. Gary Fullerton and Dr. Nan-zhu Asia Oceania Federation of Organizations for Medical Xie has given the required thrust for formation of physics [AFOMP] was founded in 2000 to increase the AFOMP. cooperation in national medical physics organizations The idea of regional organization for medical physics [NMO] for medical physics professional development, from Asia –Oceania region was first conceived during the promoting medical physics and scientific exchange. International conference on Medical Imaging, Medical AFOMP has 19 NMO’s as members and 2 NMO’s as physics and precision radiation therapy at Guangzhou, affiliate members and accounts for about 11000 medical China on 5th October, 1999. During the conference Dr. Ito physicists. AFOMP region is very diverse and Dr. Kwan organized a meeting of medical physics socioeconomically, culturally and hence every country has representatives from China, Japan, S. Korea, Hong Kong, started developing medical physics differently. However Thailand and Malaysia attending the conference to discuss AFOMP with help of IAEA, IOMP and other international and take steps towards forming a regional medical physics agencies is trying to bridge the gaps and moving towards organization, the seeds were sown. harmonizing the medical physics, though it is a daunting During the 2nd International Congress on Medical task. About 850 students per year are admitted for masters Radiation Physics at Beijing, Yimin Hu and Raymond Wu in medical physics program in 101 institutes/universities in organized second meeting of medical physicist’s AFOMP countries.
