Due to the collapse of the Romanesque central tower in 1322, the original eleventh-century choir of Ely Cathedral has been almost totally rebuilt. However, a few fragments remain to suggest something about its original form. The responds marking the entrance to the vanished apse are the major and most conspicuous survivors. Somewhat similar shafts at the west end of the choir, adjacent to the piers of the fourteenth-century Octagon, have recently been interpreted as evidence that the choir elevation possessed vertical articulation.

Abstract:
The Beginning of a Long Series of Scientific Blunders The enthusiasm that oft en characterizes researchers can at times distort certain preconceived convictions and deceive the scientist into believing that a controlled experiment has produced the correct result when, in fact, it is erroneous due to insufficient or incorrect data. This is the case for the discovery of a mysterious terra nobilis made by the chemist Torbern Olof Bergman. Bergman was born on March 20, 1735, in Katrineberg, Sweden. He was a chemist and mineralogist who became famous in 1775 for printing the most extensive tables of chemical affinity ever published at that time, and he was the first chemist to use letters of the alphabet as a notation system for chemical species. He took his doctorate at the University of Uppsala in 1758. After initially holding the professorship of physics and mathematics, he later took the chair in chemistry, which he retained for the rest of his life. Bergman made significant contributions to progress in quantitative analysis and metallurgy, and he developed a classification scheme of minerals based on their chemical characteristics. In 1777, Bergman confidently announced the result of an extremely expensive investigation. He studied the behavior of diamond with a blowpipe, and, aside from the presence of silicon, he seemed to have generated an unknown compound. He extracted the oxide of a metal from the diamonds, which, according to the custom of the time, he called terra nobilis. His discovery was quickly forgotten, not least because his life soon took a tragic turn. After marrying Margareta Catharina Trast in 1771, he enthusiastically continued his activities as a synthetic and analytical chemist, 3 but on July 8, 1784, at the age of only 49, he died in Medevi, Sweden. It is believed that he fell victim to poisoning from the chemical substances he used in his research. At the time of his death, he had been a member of the Royal Society of London and the Swedish Royal Academy for many years, and he was certainly one of the most famous chemists of his time.

Abstract:
The attempt to find the first synthetic transuranium elements occurred via investigations completely different from anything that one could imagine. They were conducted in Rome by the renowned team of “the boys of Via Panisperna,” led by the young Enrico Fermi, affectionately called “the Pope” by his colleagues because, like the Supreme Pontiff, he was considered infallible. Nevertheless, this presumed infallibility in every area of the experimental sciences ought not stray into radiochemistry. Such hubris led to a spot on an otherwise splendid record: a clumsy interpretation of data that led to the doubtful attribution of the discovery of two transuranium elements. The hasty attempt to first name, and then retract, the two radioelements, would tarnish the prestigious and somewhat controversial figure of Enrico Fermi. On the other hand, this nonexistent discovery also sped the Roman professor to Stockholm, to receive the 1938 Nobel prize in physics. On March 25, 1934, Enrico Fermi announced the observation of neutron-induced radiation in samples of aluminum and fluorine. This brilliant experiment was the culmination of preceding discoveries: that of the neutron and that of artificial radioactivity (produced by means of α particles, deuterons, and protons). The following October, a second and crucial discovery was announced: the braking effect of hydrogenous substances on the radioactivity induced by neutrons, the first step toward the utilization of nuclear energy. The year 1934, thanks to Fermi’s research, was one of great expectations for the rebirth of Italian physics, an area that for centuries had remained in the backwater compared to the United States and the great countries of Europe. At the beginning of the 1930s, the members of Fermi’s team had explained the theory of. decay and, after 1934, with their induced radioactivity experiments, had also laid down the guidelines for research on the physics of neutrons. Rome became a reference point for nuclear research on the international level. The project of the director of the Rome Physics Institute, Senator Orso Mario Corbino (1876–1937), was nearly accomplished, a project that, from the end of the 1920s, Corbino had believed in and had not spared any expense to realize, investing all of his resources in the youthful Fermi, who was called to occupy the first chair in theoretical physics in Italy, created especially for him, when he was only 25 years of age.

Political protests and mass demonstrations have in the past been effective tools for social change. Ideal protests of the past emphasized issues that transcended normal politics and those that suggested the failure of the normal political process. They suggested that their protest was the result of an unusual threat and of extraordinary circumstances. But protest today has become commonplace and ineffective through overuse. This overuse has led to inconvenience, disruption, dilution of sympathy, and the undermining of liberal institutions. Furthermore, protests today are often self-gratifying exercises that are done for recreation, to relive nostalgia, and commonly "preach to the choir." For these reasons, contemporary political protest has lost widespread legitimacy. Suggestions are given for how they can regain this legitimacy.

Abstract:
When Americans Compare Their Country to others, it is almost invariably to find fault with it. Of course, there are tub-thumpers on the right wing, for whom the United States is the greatest nation and comparisons are drawn merely to underline that preeminence. But they are a predictable lot, and intellectually of no consequence. Comparisons with abroad are of little use when preaching to the choir if the choir does not care. Most conservative Americans are too uninterested in Europe to sit still for comparative explanations of U.S. superiority. Mitt Romney got very little traction from attacking French health care and other things Gallic during his abortive run for the Republican nomination in 2007. The vast majority of Americans’ comparisons are undertaken by social scientists with liberal leanings who hope that the United States will some day approximate Europe when it comes to family allowances, universal health insurance, parental leave, and the like. For them, Europe means northern Europe. They either ignore the south or see it too as aspiring to north European status. Stockholm is the mecca toward which the social science faithful pray. Because of their political reform agenda—fervent but unfulfilled—the tone they strike is wistful. Take as a recent example the American Human Development Report, published by a preeminent institution, the Social Science Research Council, and prefaced by multiple well-wishes from the great and the good. It is modeled on the UN’s attempt to sum up economic and human well-being in a single number, to compare nations and progress over time. Its wealth of information lays bare the sometimes dramatic disparities within the United States and shows where it is lagging in relation to peer comparison countries. That is all well and good, and who could fault it? It is when sight is lost of the larger picture that worries begin. Thus, the report presents a chart (Figure 1.2) showing an apparently precipitous decline in America’s human development ranking. The United States stood in second place, after Switzerland, in 1980. This held steady until 1995, when it plummeted over the next 15 years to land at the 12th spot in 2005. America’s numerical score has increased steadily, we are reassured. But the scores of other countries have risen even faster. As a result, the United States has fallen behind its more efficient competitors.

Many of the dead in both armies are buried in shallow graves on or near the field of battle. Some are retrieved by family or friends and carried home for burial in “body baskets,” preserved in a mixture of salt, alum, and saltpeter. Embalming is rare among fallen Confederates. As death becomes wholesale, elaborate pre-war customs for mourning and grief give way to practical sharing of mourning crepe among widows, the shortening of mourning periods, and memorial rituals that must substitute for the actual burial of a body that may never be recovered. Sentimental songs like the “The Vacant Chair” honor the courage of fallen husbands and sons, and survivors cherish the stories and letters of the lost ones.

Full text
Abstract:
On September 15, 1869, Massachusetts governor Andrew appointed seven members to the state board of health. The men appointed to that board had a new vision of medicine and the roles of science and the state in protecting health. For these men, medicine should do more than just cure; it must also prevent illness. Their understanding of illness was expansive, and it led them to a concern about filth and pollution. They also came to believe that for science and medicine to perform their new role in society, they needed the backing and power of the state. On September 22, the board met for the first time, electing George Derby as secretary and Henry Ingersoll Bowditch as chair. Bowditch was a logical choice for chair. In addition to being one of the region’s leading doctors, he came from a respected Boston family, and he held the professorship of clinical medicine at Harvard School of Medicine. He was vice president of the American Medical Association (later he would be president) and the author of several scientificjournal articles. Bowditch served as a medical volunteer to the Union army and lost a son in battle. Moreover, it had been his idea to form a state board of health. In a speech before the Massachusetts Medical Society in 1862, Bowditch argued that medicine should serve the people. To do so required the creation of a state board of health, “one that eventually will be of more service . . . to the inhabitants of this state . . . by [its] united and persistent efforts to increase the state authority.” Bowditch was not the only one to advocate for a state board. Dr. Edward Jarvis, a well known sanitary reformer, had as well, and along with Bowditch, he pushed the idea, only to have it fail in the legislative house in April of 1866 as “inexpedient,” despite Governor Andrew’s endorsement. Three years later, a typhoid epidemic in western Massachusetts encouraged state representatives from the Connecticut River Valley and farther west to back a bill for a state board.
