Abstract:
At Yale University, the Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library's James Marshall and Marie-Louise Osborn Collection has recently acquired a fascinating manuscript of late sixteenth-century Roman Catholic devotional verse in English (Osborn Shelves a30). Following the liturgical year from Trinity Sunday to the feast of Saint Catherine on November 25th, these fifty-eight poems celebrate the solemnities, feasts, and memorials of the Roman liturgical calendar throughout the approximately twenty-six weeks comprising the major portion of ‘ordinary time’. Presumably, this collection would have had a companion volume, now lost, covering the period from Advent to Pentecost which includes the principal solemnities and great seasons of the liturgical year.

Abstract:
Liturgy possesses a socio-critical potential which greatly surpasses political activism. It bypasses the systems of a "complex society", such as socialisation, communication and economics, through its factual logic which stands independent of faith. This political fo-rce is already developed by the feast on Sinai, to which Israel is lead out of Egypt (Ex 5:1-3). There, Israel receives the Torah, in order that its life as the people or community of Yahweh may be successful in the Promised Land. The community is to renew itself on occasion of the three pilgrimage festivals. For this purpose, Deuteronomy developed two basic types of popular liturgy within the scope of its theology of the people of God. The first is constituted by the passion commemoration of the passover (Dt 16:1-8). It aims at the social liberation of everyone in Israel, in commemorating their being lead out of Egyptian slavery. The second type is presented in the Feast of Weeks and the Feast of Tabernacles (16:9-12, 13-15). They initiate a fraternal society devoid of poverty, and already realise this in a realistic-symbolic way, through the communal meal of rejoicing in which all are to participate before Yahweh. According to this model, the eucharistic celebrative joy of the first Jerusalem congregation (Acts 2:44-46) reveals its community-changing force in the fact that "no poor were to be found any more" among the believers (Dt 15:4 in Acts 4:32-34).

ABSTRACT Acinetobacter species encounter cycles of feast and famine in nature. We show that populations of A cinetobacter baylyi strain ADP1 remain dynamic for 6 weeks in batch culture. We created a library of lacZ reporters inserted into SalI sites in the genome and then isolated 30 genes with lacZ insertions whose expression was induced by starvation during long-term stationary phase compared with their expression during exponential growth. The genes encode metabolic, gene expression, DNA maintenance, envelope, and conserved hypothetical proteins.

Abstract:
Medieval funerals combined the accumulation of merit for the soul of the deceased with social display. During the late medieval period funerary practice became more elaborate, formalised and expensive, a reflection of its eschatological and social importance. An extended funeral lasting several weeks, comprising a vigil, procession, liveried mourners, a hearse, heraldic elements, almsgiving and a feast, developed. Several of these elements were repeated a week, a month and a year after death. The late medieval higher clergy shared the same funeral culture as the wealthy laity but with significant differences, particularly greater liturgical sophistication and more generous charity.

Abstract:
The 2012 Globe to Globe Festival proved a great success. Actors, directors, musicians, dancers, designers and technicians travelled from all over the world to perform on the Globe stage. Visitors to London’s Cultural Olympiad enjoyed six jam-packed weeks of Shakespeare, presented in an array of international languages. The Globe’s Artistic Director, Dominic Dromgoole, and his Festival Director, Tom Bird, had achieved what seemed, to many, the impossible. Nonetheless, filmed interviews with Dromgoole and Bird, conducted during the festival by the American documentary-maker Steve Rowland, offer tantalizing insights into the genesis of the festival venture. These candid interviews confirm the sometimes farcical, often exhausting, but invariably serendipitous truth behind the Globe to Globe Festival’s short, intense history. Although the Globe was “flying completely blind,” it still succeeded in hosting a glorious feast of Shakespearean delights, seasoned with the strong spice of multiculturality.

Abstract:
The food at the All-College Dining Commons (ACDC) at Vassar College stinks. Not that is literally smells foul; it just isn’t very good. The high-achieving community college students in the Exploring Transfer Program (ET) eat breakfast and dinner there for the five weeks that they are studying at Vassar. Ironically, the course I co-taught in ET for two summers, with the Chair of Environmental Studies, is entitled Feast or Famine: Food, Society, Environment. This course is a survey of issues concerning food systems, such as industrial farming, the role of agricultural lobbyists in Washington, overfishing, food sovereignty in developing countries, food stamps, food deserts, the USDA, FDA, WTO, IMF, etc. And yet, with all of the knowledge the students are gleaning from authors like Marion Nestle, Michael Pollan, Wendell Berry and myriad others, they have to eat the crappy food at ACDC. We have had students in this course from Argentina, Bosnia, Bourkina Faso, China, El Salvador, Ghana, Guyana, Haiti, Italy, Mexico, Pakistan, Poland, the Philippines, Sweden, Uzbekistan, and Vietnam. They come from community colleges mostly in the New York area, but also from as far away as Boston, Maine, Los Angeles, and Diné Community College, which is on a Navajo reservation in Northern Arizona. This program—over 30 years old and with over 1,000 alumni—is a sort of academic boot camp for community college students who hope to transfer to an elite liberal arts college, a Research 1 university, or an Ivy League school. It’s a full scholarship program during which they take two courses in five weeks, each team-taught by a community college professor and a Vassar professor. “AC/DC” seems an apt metaphor for the ET program; not for its pop-metal connotations but because of the fact that it demands that students that are accustomed to operating in one current suddenly adjust to quite another. The question that arises out of the experience of eating ACDC, though—of being low-income, immigrant, first-generation college students, studying at one of the whitest and most expensive schools in the country and yet being forced to eat poor food—is “how do they develop a sense of personal agency,” since that is what the transition through community college and onto a school like Vassar requires.

Abstract:
Right at the time of national financial difficulties, the Provisional Government of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam launched the Golden Week in the framework of the Independence Fund, exhorting the entire people to raise money and wealth to help the country. Golden Week became one of the events that started Vietnam's modern history with feats and meanings that surpass the time. This article reproduces the progress and results of the event based on contemporary media sources, especially the Cuu Quoc newspaper, the Government's daily mouthpiece and propaganda agency. The concrete facts have contributed to restoring the face and stature of the event, correcting perceptions that contain many erroneous information that has been defaults before, through some scientific manipulations of quantification, statistics, matching, etc. The results of the study showed that Golden Week was conducted in two spaces associated with two diffirent time periods, including Hanoi capital from September 16, 1945 to September 30, 1945 and the whole country from September 16, 1945 to January 9, 1946; the activities of Golden Week in Hanoi capital are actually organized in seven different locations, of which there was Bac Bo palace, which gathered dozens of capitalists and landlords with the value of donations up to half of the total value of 7 million Indochina of Golden Week, demonstrating the leading role in the financial support of the rich and patriotic classes at the beginning of the consolidation of national independence.

As backdrop, this research has used the content of Deuteronomy 16, 1-17. It's said that it wasn't for sure when each of these feasts appeared, but it was said that these feasts have suffered alterations in the course of time until nowadays. The comparisons made through the study of the texts in The Old Testaments have given a better view about these alterations. The unification of The Feast of Pesah with The Feast of Unleavened bread since they were close by each other in the Judaic calendar was one of the most important alterations. Another one was the centralization of the three important feasts in the temple of Jerusalem. The analysis also shows the impacts that these changes have caused over the people of Israel. The people who used to celebrate the feasts in a familiar surrounding had to change the place of their worship. The change made by King Josiah also had a great impact over the Jewish people. It's said that such change had a political and economic reason. At last, it was analyzed the changes that had occurred in the calendar of the feasts. The Feast of Pesah which used to be celebrated in the month of Tisri was then celebrated in the month of Abib, in Deuteronomy 16, 1-17.<br>A pesquisa trabalha as três principais Festas judaicas: Festa do pesah (juntamente com a Festa dos pães ázimos), Festa das semanas e a Festa das tendas, trazendo um embasamento teórico que perpassa os livros bíblicos do Antigo Testamento. Como pano de fundo principal, esta pesquisa utilizou o conteúdo de Deuteronômio 16,1-17. Pode-se dizer que não se conseguiu afirmar quando surgiram cada uma das Festas, entretanto observou-se que estas Festas sofreram transformações no decorrer do tempo até os dias de hoje. As comparações feitas através do estudo de textos do Antigo Testamento deram uma visão melhor sobre estas transformações. A unificação da Festa do pesah com a Festa dos pães ázimos, por serem Festas próximas uma da outra no calendário judaico, foi uma das transformações importantes. Outra foi a centralização das três principais Festas no templo de Jerusalém. A análise também perpassa pelos impactos que estas mudanças causaram sobre o povo de Israel. O povo que tinha por costume comemorar as Festas num ambiente familiar teve que mudar o local de suas adorações. A reforma feita pelo rei Josias também teve grande impacto para o povo judeu. Podemos dizer que esta reforma teve uma finalidade política e econômica. Por fim, também foram analisadas as mudanças que ocorreram no calendário das três Festas. A Festa do pesah que era comemorada no mês de Tisri passa a ser comemorado no mês de Abib no livro de Deuteronômio 16,1-17

Abstract:
In questioning the millennium, Stephen Jay Gould tells the story of an autistic child, a mentally challenged young man who nevertheless can tell in a flash the day you were born given the date you were born. Gould studies his subject until he understands the way this feat is accomplished. He realizes that every 28 years there is a consistent unit—28 extra days over the standard 52 weeks plus seven days for leap years, the equivalent of five weeks. His subject . . . had added up extra days laboriously until he came to 28 years—the first span that always adds exactly the same total number of extra days, with the sum of extra days exactly divisible by seven. Every 28 years includes 35 extra days, and 35 extra days makes five weeks. You see, he had given me the right answer to my question—but I had not understood him at first. I had asked: “Is there anything special about the number 28 when you figure out the day of the week for dates in different years?” and he had answered: “Yes . . . five weeks.” May we all make such excellent use of our special skills, whatever and however limited they may be, as we pursue the most noble of all our mental activities in trying to make sense of this wonderful world, and the small part we must play in the history of life. Actually, I didn’t quote his beautiful answer fully. He said to me: “Yes, Daddy, five weeks.” His name is Jesse. He is my firstborn son, and I am very proud of him. . . . This anecdote exemplifies Stephen Jay Gould’s passionate interest in science; equally, it testifies to his dispassionate pursuit of the science that interests him, a probing skepticism that with patient effort yields the correct answer. For Gould the scientist it is of no interest that his experimental subject is his son.

Abstract:
McKay and Cannon’s steamship plied into the port at Wellington, New Zealand before dawn on April 21, 1921. They spent just over a week on the North Island, visiting missionaries, local members of European descent known as “Pakehas,” and native Maori Latter-day Saints. By the time of McKay’s visit, Maori converts and their descendants composed the majority of Latter-day Saints in New Zealand. Their traditions enamored McKay—most notably the “Hui Tau,” an annual multiday conference that included dancing, feasts, and community discussions ranging from church administration to local needs and unit organization. On many occasions, McKay was “hongied” by Maori members, an intimate nose-to-nose greeting. McKay bid farewell to the New Zealand Saints on April 30, 1921, departing for the next leg of his journey.

Abstract:
This chapter assesses how, in the closing weeks of May of 1864, William T. Sherman encountered a problem that had perplexed all successful commanders: how to complete a devastating pursuit. In particular, he needed to figure out how to prevent the escape of an enemy that might seek refuge in another position as formidable as the one previously vacated. With the Crossing of the Chattahoochee River, virtually without loss, Sherman brought this phase of the campaign to an end with a stunning feat for which he has received insufficient credit. There is one cardinal rule for river crossings, as for amphibious landings—cross or land where the enemy is not. In some ways, Sherman’s achievement is even more impressive than Ulysses S. Grant’s Crossing of the James the previous month, because of the close proximity of the enemy determined to resist his forays and superior in cavalry. Sherman out-thought and out-maneuvered Joseph E. Johnston. And for once, in this series of intricate movements, his cavalry played a creditable role.

"PRICES AND WAGES IN ENGLAND servants at 6d. In periods of high prices 1s. 2d. or 1s. 4d. a week might be allowed for fellows. The allowances covered expenditure on food, drink and fuel for cooking, baking bread and brewing beer and for heating the Hall on feast days in winter, the only times when fires were per-mitted there. Two meals, dinner and supper, were served daily, with breakfast for those under sixteen years of age. If the total expense of food, drink and fuel in any year was less than the total allocations a surplus was accounted at the end of the year known as Excrescentia commonarum ; if the expense exceeded the allocations a deficit appeared in the Bursars’ Accounts. During the fifteenth century the total yearly allocations for commons were usually between £220 and £230, with variations due to the varying number of persons and to different rates, and there was nearly always a surplus, sometimes as great as £57 8s. (1456) ; between 1405 and 1475 a deficit occurred only in four years (1405, 1437, 1438 and 1446). Later the surplus disappeared and early in the sixteenth century there were usually deficits caused by the permanent rise in prices. Between 1534 and 1541 there was a deficit every year. A new method of accounting for commons was therefore adopted in 1542, in order to ensure a more comprehensive statement of the current expenses for food, drink and fuel. From 1542 onwards, the Bursars entered the total sums spent weekly on provisions and supplementary purchases by the Manciple in the Rolls or Books in place of the former Commons Account, which now disappeared. After the expenses of the departments, liveries, stipends and all other expenditure, a new section was henceforward added: the Staurum or Stock Account. This covered costs of food, drink and fuel used during the year and gave com-monly only a single total quantity for each commodity with the cost of the same. The accounts were not kept uniformly ; some bursars unfortunately omitted quantities entirely from their Staurum Accounts. Since a store was kept of most kinds of provisions, the consumption in any year consisted partly of the remainder unused purchased in the year preceding, partly of fresh purchases in the current year. In a few years entries were divided into “ left in store and used during the year ” and “ bought and used during the year,” and in these cases the average." In Prices and Wages in England.

Abstract:
&lt;p&gt;In 2017, WSP undertook the challenge of designing two non-conventional aluminum multifunctional walkways for Parks Canada at the Lachine Canal National Historic Site. The designer retained the geometry of the early 19&lt;span&gt;th&lt;/span&gt; railway bridges to recall the rich heritage of the industrial era that marked the site. Choosing aluminum for the structures emphasizes Parks Canada’s vision: walking towards the future and using innovative, maintenance-free materials. The 27 m x 4.5 m pony truss aluminum structures are completely welded, thus requiring no assembly on site. This is a feat given the constraints of this material. With nearly 5,000 pedestrian and cyclist crossings per day, the works were planned to limit the duration of the building site to only three weeks.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This article focuses on the design of the non-redundant chords of the structures and the vibration issues due to pedestrian crossing. Explanations are provided regarding how the designer applied the provisions that have mainly been prepared for steel and concrete structures to aluminum structures. In the context of a non- redundant single span, it was still possible to obtain a nearly constant demand over capacity ratio for the compressed top chord over its entire length. Moreover, it describes how it is possible to quantify the performance of a footbridge with regards to vibration behavior at the serviceability limit state.&lt;/p&gt;
