“A Flurry of Fascination” the (Anti)Plagiarism Cases of Stephen Ambrose and Doris Kearns Goodwin
1 “A Flurry of Fascination” The (Anti)Plagiarism Cases of Stephen Ambrose and Doris Kearns Goodwin IN THE FIRST week of January 2002, a crime was committed. For some, the crime had actually taken place many months, even years, before the New York Times published the first of many reports on the topic. For others, the offense came later as scattered details coalesced and the several participants (perpetra- tors and victims alike) stated positions for the record. And yet, for many the crime never happened at all, but rather those accused had been falsely charged by an envious, resentful few. In the end, it would not be clear as to who did what, when, where, to whom, and why. Nevertheless, something did happen in early 2002, and the goal of this retelling is to consider how the many players involved managed to articulate both the nature of the crime and its relevance to education, scholarship, and American culture at large. These players would include a handful of state uni- versities, several college professors and students, one major publishing house, a slew of journalists, a few concerned citizens, three spokespersons, a staff of re- search assistants, and a series of experts prepared to wax eloquent on topics ranging from the proper use of punctuation marks to the diabolical repercus- sions of selling one’s soul. The issues at stake would be biggies: integrity, truth, honesty, discipline, courage, tradition. New and old technologies—computers, word-processing software, and the Internet, but also plain old paper, pencil, and handwriting—would factor in as evidence, and even accessories to the crime. -

A New Age Case Study on Contested Models of Science
CALIFORNIA STATE UNIVERSITY, NORTHRIDGE QI EQUALS MC-SQUARED: A NEW AGE CASE STUDY ON CONTESTED MODELS OF SCIENCE, SPIRITUALITY AND THE ACQUISITION OF SCIENTIFIC KNOWLEDGE A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements For the degree of Master of Arts in Anthropology By Garrett Sadler December 2014 The thesis of Garrett Sadler is approved: _________________________________________ ______________ Dr. Christina von Mayrhauser Date _________________________________________ ______________ Dr. Sabina Magliocco Date _________________________________________ ______________ Dr. Kimberly Kirner, Chair Date California State University, Northridge ii Acknowledgements There are many people to whom I am endlessly in debt for their guidance, wisdom, expertise, support, sympathy, counseling, therapy (lots and lots of therapy), and—simply put—genuine care for my success over the course of this project and, more generally, my graduate career. Thank you, Drs. Christina von Mayrhauser, Sabina Magliocco, and Kimberly Kirner. Each of you has played a significant role in developing and honing my skills and intellect in anthropological thought and, perhaps more significantly, in being a good person. Additionally, I would like to single out two students without whose friendship (more accurately, mentorship) I would not have completed this degree: Victoria Weaver and Kevin Zemlicka. Victoria and Kevin, I am honored to have you as such dear friends. From our mutual experiences in this program, I know that our bond is permanent. Please be prepared to keep assisting me with my many neuroses in the future. To all of those mentioned above, know that you have instilled in me aspects of character, personality, identity (or whatever the hell you want to call it) that will remain with me eternally. -
THE NEW ZEALAND MEDICAL JOURNAL Journal of the New Zealand Medical Association
THE NEW ZEALAND MEDICAL JOURNAL Journal of the New Zealand Medical Association New Zealanders’ favourite natural health products are ineffective Significant numbers of adults and children use one or more forms of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM), and the industry is worth billions of dollars globally. 1,2 There are a plethora of different therapies and products, but the vast majority are either not biologically plausible and/or not support by research evidence. e.g.,3–5 Based on feedback from talks to patient groups on the subject, from local health professionals and the media, it is apparent that some natural health products are particularly popular with the New Zealand public. These therapies and products are often advertised in local newspapers and on radio and are usually manufactured in New Zealand, which may be driving demand. They include: Colloidal silver—consists of tiny silver particles suspended in a liquid base and is taken orally, sprayed on the skin or even injected intravenously. Products are marketed as being beneficial for the immune system and for serious diseases including cancer, HIV and pneumonia. Silver does have some antimicrobial actions, but not only is there no clinical evidence of any efficacy for these serious indications, products have been shown to contain widely variable amounts of silver and can cause argyria —dangerous and untreatable silver poisoning. Deer velvet—a dietary supplement made from the antlers of deer that have been surgically removed whilst they are still growing. The idea that deer velvet has healing properties likely originates from the fact that as it is the only mammalian organ with the ability to regenerate itself, if used as dietary supplement it will confer health benefits. -

I first heard of the Bach Flower Remedies back in about 1977 and was immediately interested. I have always been a flower lover and the idea of healing with the energy of flowers really appealed to me. I bought some remedies from a Chemist in Sydney and treated myself. I also read Edward Bach's little book Heal Thyself, and this book really impressed and inspired me. -
