Where did this phrase come from and how did it evolve? even if most of the bags were not actually black. But when did this concept begin and how did the doctor’s bag evolve? Objectives Origins and evolution of the doctor’s bag The objective of the article is to outline the history of the medical bag and its contents, from early times to the present At least part of the answer to the question above lies in day, by using library research methodology. antiquity. The small treatise in the Hippocratic Corpus known as ‘Decorum’, dated to about 350 BCE, describes how the Discussion medical practitioner should carry a small case fitted to hold the necessary items required when visiting patients.1 Another The first mention of a medical bag is in the Hippocratic Corpus example is an instrument case illustrated in an Egyptian temple around 350 BCE. This demonstrates that since ancient times, (Figure 1), from about 100 BCE.2 So, the evidence suggests that medical practitioners have carried some equipment and from early times, medical practitioners carried certain drugs and medications with them when they visited their patients, the exact contents changing over time. instruments with them when they visited their patients.

  • Shallow Grave by John Hodge INT
    Shallow Grave By John Hodge INT. DAY A blurred image forms on a white screen. A horizontal strip of face, eyes motionless and unblinking. DAVID (voice-over) Take trust, for instance, or friendship: these are the important things in life, the things that matter, that help you on your way. If you can’t trust your friends, well, what then? EXT. DAWN A series of fast-cut static scenes of empty streets. DAVID (voice-over) This could have been any city: they’re all the same. A rapid, swerving track along deserted streets and down narrow lanes and passageways. Accompanied by soundtrack and credits. The track ends outside a solid, fashionable Edinburgh tenement. INT. STAIRWELL. DAY At the door of a flat on the third floor of the tenement. The door is dark, heavy wood and on it is a plastic card embossed with the names of three tenants. They are Alex Law, David Stevens, and Juliet Miller. A man climbs the stairs and reaches the door. He is Cameron Clarke, thin and in his late twenties with a blue anorak and lank, greasy hair. He is carrying an awkwardly bulky plastic bag. Cameron gives the doorbell an ineffectual ring and then stands back, shifting nervously from foot to foot until the door is answered. CAMERON Hello, I’ve come about the room. Cameron enters and the door closes. INT. LIVING ROOM. DAY David, Alex, and Juliet sit in a line on the sofa directly opposite Cameron, who shifts uneasily in his armchair. Alex checks some items on a clipboard before speaking.

  • Word Relationships
    228 WORD RELATIONSHIPS I DMITRI A. BORGMANN J Dayton, Washington I The May 1974 issue of Psychology Today featured an interesting ar­ :r ticle about efforts under way to II teach" computers to understand and use human language. ' I I Teaching a computer to deal with the English language has proved to be incredibly difficult. One problem is the tremendous variety and 1 complexity of grammatical constructions that occur even in simple, I conver sational English. The most intricate programming is required if a computer is to analyze and interpret correctly many different run­ of-the-mill sentences. ....c A more formidable problem is the discovery that understanding common, everyday English requires a wealth of knowledge about the S outside world. A four-year-old child may possess that knowledge, 1 but the most sophisticated computer ever devised does not. There are numerous aspects of this problem discussed in Psychology Today. 1 One aspect is the use of compound terms consisting of two suc­ 1 ce s sive nouns, the fir st one modifying the second one. Extensive back­ ground knowledge is needed if the character of the relationship between t the two nouns is to be understood properly. The article in question cites pots as an example. A KITCHEN pot is one used in the kitchen. , A SOUP pot is one in which soup is cooked. A CAST-IRON pot is one made of cast iron. To the se three example s, a fourth one could be ad­ ded: a QUART pot is one with a capacity of one quart.

  • Laboratory and Service Tests of Hand Luggage
    Laboratory and Service Tests of Hand Luggage United States Department of Commerce National Bureau of Standards Miscellaneous Publication 193 UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE • Charles Sawyer, Secretary NATIONAL BUREAU OF STANDARDS • E. U. Condon, Director Laboratory and Service Tests of Hand Luggage by Edward T. Steiner, Robert B. Hobbs, and Elizabeth R. Hosterman National Bureau of Standards Miscellaneous Publication 193 Issued July 1, 1949 For sale by the Superintendent of Documents, U. S. Government Printing Office, Washington 25, D. C. Price IS cents PREFACE The durability of hand luggage is often a matter of serious concern for nearly every traveler, as well as for manufacturers and distributors of luggage and for the transportation industries. Yet when representatives of the rail- roads, busses, and air lines asked the National Bureau of Standards for assistance in preparing a commercial standard for this commodity, it was found that there existed practically no reported research on the subject. For this reason the Bureau conducted a survey of luggage in service, in bus and railroad stations in 10 cities, to get information needed in developing performance tests for hand luggage. The findings of the surveys, showing the materials and types of luggage occurring most frequently, the general condition of luggage in service, and the loaded weights of bags in service, are presented in this report. The three laboratory performance tests suggested by the authors require only rather simple apparatus and yield results of adequate precision. These tests have been shown to correlate well with the behavior of luggage in actual service, and therefore seem suitable for use in a commercial standard.

  • AN OLD MATE of HER EX-HUSBAND's Harry Dover Heard of Merle's Death in the Pub at Nelia on New Year's Eve, 1957. He Had Come Into
    DENNIS DOUGLAS AN OLD MATE OF HER EX-HUSBAND'S Harry Dover heard of Merle's death in the pub at Nelia on New Year's Eve, 1957. He had come into town—what there was of it, a pub and a general store beside the railway line—thinking he might pick up a quid or two at the picnic races, but there were too many dicks in the paddock. Every copper in the state seemed to be on to him these days. He stayed out of harm's way at the end of the bar through the afternoon. In the six o'clock crush he overheard three men he had never seen before talking about an accident in the bush. It was a pretty gruesome story. Bloke and his de facto out in the mulga dropping trees for sleeper logs—accident with a motor- powered saw—bloke driving eighty miles on bad roads—dying woman wrapped in a blanket, unconscious, on the passenger seat. Stories like that were common enough, but this one had an edge to it. It was her hair had killed her. Her long red hair had caught on the blade of the circular saw and the scalp was ripped off. They only said her name at the end. Harry didn't know what to think at first. He remembered her the last time he had seen her, in the courtroom, how she hadn't looked at him, hadn't spoken. He had wanted to go up to her at the end, when they let her off, and tell her that it wasn't her fault.

Reticules and the development of the evening bag There’s money in purses! by Zita Thornton ntil the end of the eighteenth century women carried all their essential items in removable pockets Uhidden under the folds of their voluminous skirts. However, the fashion from the 1790s for high waisted dresses in clinging fabrics meant that an alternative had to be found. The answer was the reticule, taking its name from the Roman reticulum or lady’s net bag. In the eighteenth century this was a highly decorative small bag with long carrying handles that enhanced the elongated, slim silhouette of the dress. Made from fine fabrics such as velvet and silk, it was decorated with embroidery or the newly fashionable beading and often included drawstrings and tassels.

Lot 55. Above: Ian Scott, Night Flight (detail). Lot 164. WELCOME TO A+O’S 80TH CATALOGUE since the company’s formation in May 2007. This catalogue features the growing genre of New Collectors Art – one of the largest and most diverse of its type we have off ered. At the heart of the New Collectors catalogue is the collection of one of New Zealand’s earliest dealer gallerists, Don Wood. The landscape of the New Zealand art scene in the late 50s and early 60s was radically diff erent to today. Our earliest gallerists were pioneers in the true sense of the word, quite literally bringing light into the void. At the tender age of 22 Don Wood, along with friend and fellow architecture student Frank Lowe, opened one of New Zealand’s fi rst commercial dealer galleries at 64 Symonds Street in central Auckland. Originally called ‘The Gallery’ and soon after ‘The Michael Illingworth catalogue, March 1962. Ikon Gallery’, the premises were close enough to the School of Architecture that Don could attend to the gallery between lectures and studying. The fi rst exhibition was held in May 1960 and later that year Colin McCahon exhibited his iconic sixteen panel work from 1958, The Wake. Lois McIvor wrote in her recent book, Memoir of the Sixties (Auckland 2008): “I can still remember going there one afternoon and being overwhelmed by this wonderful vision that fi lled the gallery in a way that I had never seen before, with the white trunks of the kauris shimmering in the late afternoon light.
