NEW CLIMBS 357 NEW CLIMBS SECTION OUTER ISLES LEWIS, The Uig Hills, Hidden Buttress: Note: With reference to SMCJ 2002, p94, R. Everett notes (with agreement from M. Tighe): 1. Hunting for History is the same as Election Special. 2. Con John follows Election Special for the first 10m. 3. Where Eagles Nest is an independent line for its first half, then it joins Con John. 4. Hidden Treasure was climbed by M. Tighe and B. Newton in June, 1987 but with a runner pre-placed in Election Special which provided a top-rope for the crux traverse. R. Everett’s is therefore the first true ascent of the direct line. M. Tighe and B. Newton did climb a less direct line in good style. 5. R. Everett has written descriptions which are available by e-mail and has provided photos for the next guidebook author.

Two teams of researchers each profiledsix adults with low literacy skills. The study populationwas selected so as to reflect a diverse mix of ages, genders, social and ethnic backgrounds, and literacy skills. Despite their great diversity,the 12 persons profiled had all been marginalized economicallyand culturally by society, had faced hard times, expresseda strong desire to become more self-reliant, hoped to improve theirliteracy skills and thereby obtain a better life for themselvesand their children, and shared common strategies for overcomingtheir illiteracy (including the buildinp of social networksand use of "readers"). Differences among the native andnonnative English speakers profiled were found in relation to the followingareas: uses of technology, impact of first languageusage, connectir-ns between English-as-a-Second-Language literacy, and family relationships,and the clarity of cultural identity possessed by nonnativespeakers in contrast to the white and African Americans profiled.
