Brussels PRINTED FOR MELINE, CANS A.ND C"., EOILEVARD DE WATERLOO, Zi. M DCCC XXXIX. MR V. un:ve PREFACE TO THE FIRST EDITION. To assist in the detection of spurious and the correction of inaccu- rate pedigrees, is one of the purposes of the present publication, in which respect the first Volume has been of acknowledged utility. The two together, it is hoped, will form a comprehensive and tole- rably correct Register of Pedigrees. It will be observed that some of the Mares which appeared in the last Supplement (whereof this is a republication and continua- tion) stand as they did there, i. e. without any additions to their produce since 1813 or 1814. — It has been ascertained that several of them were about that time sold by public auction, and as all attempts to trace them have failed, the probability is that they have either been converted to some other use, or been sent abroad. If any proof were wanting of the superiority of the English breed of horses over that of every other country, it might be found in the avidity with which they are sought by Foreigners. The exportation of them to Russia, France, Germany, etc. for the last five years has been so considerable, as to render it an object of some importance in a commercial point of view.

They range from the mat-forming old fashioned pink (which has just one flush of usually strongly scented flowers) to the repeat flowering, more vigorous modern pinks and border carnations.

Adam Guttridge, who lives on Bryan Mere, has very kindly offered to do our printing for us for which we are very grateful. Liz Swann volunteered to help and so she has taken over the financial side.

Circa 1950s. From the archives of East Boston Social Centers, 68 Central Square, East Boston, MA The History of the East Boston Social Centers: The Intertwining of a Neighborhood and an Organization for the Community 1918 ~ 2018 by Kyle Ingrid Johnson 2 Photograph of children outside the Central Square Center. Circa 1940s. From the archives of East Boston Social Centers, 68 Central Square, East Boston, MA. Photographer unknown 3 Introduction East Boston is a fascinating place. I thought I knew it fairly well until I embarked on researching the neighborhood in preparation for a history study of the East Boston Social Centers. Immediately, I realized I knew nothing at all. There was so much to learn, to consider, and to absorb. The East Boston Social Centers turn 100 years old this year, 2018, but in many ways their history goes back much further in one form or another, to the late 1700s. What I thought would be a six-month study and perhaps a manuscript of 50 pages, turned out to be a one-year project with over 200 pages of text and photographs. It has been a very special privilege to be allowed to wander through the papers in the archives held at the Social Centers. Along the way, I have lived through the Great Depression, World War II, the placid 50s, and the turbulent 60s.

    Cancer Prevention for Global Health: a Report from the ASPO International Cancer Prevention Interest Group

    Published OnlineFirst July 31, 2012; DOI: 10.1158/1055-9965.EPI-12-0848 Cancer Epidemiology, ASPO Report Biomarkers & Prevention Cancer Prevention for Global Health: A Report from the ASPO International Cancer Prevention Interest Group Dejana Braithwaite1, Paolo Boffetta2, Timothy R. Rebbeck3, and Frank Meyskens4 Abstract As cancer incidence and mortality rates increase in low- and middle-income countries, the need for cancer prevention and control research directed to these countries becomes increasingly important. The American Society of Preventive Oncology (ASPO) is a community of professionals in cancer prevention and control whose mission is to "foster the continuing development of investigators and the exchange and translation of scientific information to reduce the cancer burden." In the session presented at the ASPO 36th Annual Meeting in Washington, DC in March 2012, chaired by Drs. Frank Meyskens and Dejana Braithwaite, Dr. Paolo Boffetta discussed some of the achievements in global cancer prevention and suggested that future efforts focus on three major causes of cancer: tobacco-use, infections, and overweight/obesity. Dr. Timothy Rebbeck presented an overview of prostate cancer research in sub-Saharan Africa and highlighted how the complex nature of prostate cancer etiology and outcomes can be addressed through capacity-building research partnerships. Cancer is an emerging public health challenge in developing countries because of the aging and expansion of the population and increased prevalence of cancer risk factors such as smoking, obesity, physical inactivity, and reproductive factors. There are opportunities to reduce the growing cancer burden through the devel- opment of research capacity and the application of resource-appropriate interventions.
