TheJohns Hopkins Society of Scholars TheJohns Hopkins Society of Scholars was created by the University's Board ofTrustees on May 1. 1967, on the recommendation of President Milton S. Eisenhower. The society'—the first of its kind in the nation — inducts former Johns Hopkins postdoctoral fellows, junior faculty, or visiting faculty who have gone on to marked distinction in scholarship or professional achievement in the physical, biological, medical, social, or engineering sciences or the humanities. At least five years must have elapsed since their formal association with die University. The Committee of theJohns Hopkins Society of Scholars, whose members are drawn in equal numbers from among all the academic divisions of the University, elects the inductees from candidates nominated by the divisions having programs for postdoctoral fellows. New members of the Society' ofScholars are invested annuallv at the time ofCommemoration Day, Commencement, or some similar occasion. Thev are presented with a certificate and a medallion with a black and gold ribbon. Today, we honor 15 new inductees, invested at a ceremony last evening, who bring the society's membership to 267. They are: Dr. James C. Allen, chairman of the Department of Medicine at the Medical University of South Carolina. A distinguished clinician and investigator, he made seminal observations as a postdoctoral fellow that led to the finding of the CM allotypes on immunoglobulin heavy chains. Later, in collaboration with Dr. Michael Apicella, he demonstrated the immunopathogenesis of pleural effusions in tuberculosis. Dr. Camilla Persson Benbow, professor of psvchology at Iowa State University. A productive and creative investigator, she received four Hopkins degrees, including a doctorate, by age 24 and was promoted to full professor at Iowa Suite at 33.

  • Chiricahuas Present a Verdant, Forested Island in a Sea of Desert

    Rising steeply from the dry grasslands of southeastern Arizona and southwestern New Mexico, the Chiricahuas present a verdant, forested island in a sea of desert. Many species of trees, shrubs, and flowering herbs clothe steep canyon walls. Shady glens, alive with birds, are sheltered by rows of strange massive spires, turrets, and battlements in this fascinating wonderland of rocks. Story of the rocks-What geological forces created these striking and peculiar pinnacles and balanced rocks? Geolo- gists explain that millions of years ago volcanic activity was extensive throughout this region. A series of explosive eruptions, alternating with periods of inactivity, covered the area with layers of white-hot volcanic ash that welded into rock. Because the eruptions varied in magnitude, the deposits were of different thicknesses. Finally, the eruptions ceased, followed by movements in the earth's crust which slowly lifted and tilted great rock masses to form mountains. The stresses responsible for the movements caused a definite pattern of cracks. Along the vertical cracks and planes of horizontal weakness, ero- sion by weathering and running water began its persistent work. Cracks were widened to form fissures; and fissures grew to breaches. At the same time, under-cutting slowly took place. Gradually the lava masses were cut by millions of ero- sional channels into blocks of myriad sizes and shapes, to be further sculptured by the elements. Shallow canyons became deeper and more rugged as time passed. Weathered rock formed soil, which collected in pockets; and plants thus gained a foothold. Erosion is still going on slowly and persistently among the great pillared cliffs of the monument.

Brennan, Special Narcotics Prosecutor Press Release Friday, January 27, 2006 Magda Gandasegui, Director of Public Information (212) 815-0525 OPERATION PANAMA EXPRESS New York City Special Narcotics Prosecutor BRIDGET G. BRENNAN, New York Police Commissioner RAYMOND W. KELLY, New York Dea Special Agent-In-Charge JOHN P. GILBRIDE announced today the arrest of 20 individuals involved in a drug enterprise that used dozens of swallowers to transport heroin from Panama to the United States. Indictments unsealed today charged Carlos Antonio Zaldivar Robinson, Lee Omar Dean Jerome, Luis Alberto Fruto Lay and Mark Anthony Lowe, four leaders in Panama who oversaw the recruitment of both American and Panamanian swallowers. Bronx-based Silverio Guzman, the head of the New York cell, coordinated the distribution of heroin. Also indicted were a Panamanian and an American citizen who smuggled ingested heroin, three other members of the transportation organization, a Bronx-based heroin supplier, and three local drug traffickers who resold the drugs throughout New York City. The international investigation, dubbed “Operation Panama Express,” identified Silverio Guzman as the main target in New York. Guzman actively recruited swallowers, arranged for the trips under the guidance of the Panamanian bosses, made arrangements to retrieve the heroin from the swallowers and supplied heroin to local dealers. For nine months, surveillance and wiretap operations traced the comings and goings of swallowers, including the two indicted today, as they traveled routinely from Latin America to the United States transporting pellets full of heroin.

Kecman wanted to juxtapose the new comet with the butte that was an astronomical observatory in the years 900 – 1200 AD. Fajada (banded) Butte is home to the ancestral Puebloan sun shrine popularly known as “The Sun Dagger” site. The butte is closed to visitors to protect its fragile cultural sites. The clear skies over the Southwest led to discovery of Hale-Bopp on July 22-23, 1995. Alan Hale saw the comet from his driveway in Cloudcroft, New Mexico, and Thomas Bopp saw the comet from the desert near Stanfield, Arizona at about the same time. Marko Kecman: 115 N.

    Diphtheria serum and serotherapy. Development, Production and regulation in fin de siècle Germany Axel C. Hüntelmann Institute for the History of Medicine, Ruprecht-Karls-University Heidelberg. [email protected] Dynamis Fecha de recepción: 3 de enero de 2007 [0211-9536] 2007; 27: 107-131 Fecha de aceptación: 8 de marzo de 2007 SUMMARY: 1.—Introduction. 2.—The socio-cultural context of science in fin de siècle Germany. 3.— The development of diphtheria serum in Germany. 4.—The production of diphtheria serum in the German Empire. 5.—State control of diphtheria serum. 6.—Serum networks and indirect state regulation. ABSTRACT: The development, production and state regulation of diphtheria serum is outlined against the background of industrialisation, standardization, falling standards of living and rising social conflict in fin de siècle Germany. On one hand, diphtheria serum offered a cure for an infectious disease and was a major therapeutic innovation in modern medicine. On the other hand, the new serum was a remedy of biological origin and nothing was known about its side effects or long-term impact. Moreover, serum therapy promised high profits for manufacturers who succeeded in stabilizing the production process and producing large quantities of serum in so-called industrial production plants. To minimize public health risks, a broad system of state regulation was installed, including the supervision of serum production and distribution. The case of diphtheria serum illustrates the indirect forms of government supervision and influence adopted in the German Empire and the cooperation and networking among science, state and industry.

    Crime and Punishment in Postwar Los Angelesby Jon Lewis

    Jessica Johnson Book Review: Hard-Boiled Hollywood: Crime and Punishment in Postwar Los Angeles by Jon Lewis necessitate this sort of methodology. Instead, his work is concentrated on Los Angeles print sources, mainly using the Los Angeles Examiner, Los Angeles Times, Los Angeles Daily News, Los Angeles Herald- Express, and the Los Angeles Mirror to investigate the role of the press in either stifling or exploiting tales of scandal and corruption, all framed within the context of the changing Hollywood industry. The book is broken down into four chapters that cover an array of topics within this fifteen-year period, beginning with the death of Elizabeth Short and culminating in 1962 with the death of Marilyn Monroe. Together, these chapters paint a picture of the gritty sub-culture of crime, prostitution, and corruption that infiltrated Hollywood post-World War II.
