Abstract:

Situated at the intersection of Latinx postwar migration, community formation, and urban politics, this article explores the Washington Heights uprising of 1992 as a lens through which to historicize Dominican belonging and urban policing in late twentieth-century New York. It tracks the history of New York’s Dominican community beginning in the early 1960s and their myriad struggles leading to the climactic uprising which was spurred by the police shooting of twenty-three-year-old Jose “Kiko” Garcia. Garcia’s murder galvanized Washington Heights’ Dominican community, prompting deep communal r

ABSTRACTThis article presents the results of a comparative study of two Hispanic communities in New York City: Washington Heights and Elmhurst/Corona. Our data on language proficiency, language use, and attitudes were gathered using a sociolinguistic questionnaire. However, the study benefited from the interactive process established between the researchers and the communities which they studied and in which they live and work.Our data are analyzed along three dimensions. First, we compare data for the two Spanish-speaking communities. We discuss how the social status and the ethnic configurat

As scholars move from studying the city as the setting for larger social processes to exploring how cities play constitutive roles in historical change, it is important to explore the most fundamental and complex unit of urban life—the neighborhood—in all its subjective meanings and dimensions.

However, interagency disputes, budgetary restrictions, and compromised community involvement threatened to derail the NESP entirely.

Abstract:

Abstract Satellite telemetry was used to determine fall migratory movements of Ospreys (Pandion haliaetus) breeding in the United States. Study areas were established along the lower Columbia River between Oregon and Washington; in north-central Minnesota; on Shelter Island, New York; and in southern New Jersey. Seventy-four adults (25 males, 49 females) were tracked from 1995 through 1999. Migration routes differed among populations but not by sex. Western Ospreys migrated through California and to a lesser degree other western states and wintered in Mexico (88%), El Salvador (6%), and Hondur

Abstract:

Background: Twitter is used by officials to distribute public health messages and by the public to post information about ongoing afflictions. Because tweets originate from geographically and socially diverse sources, scholars have used this social media data to analyze the spread of diseases like flu [Alessio Signorini 2011], asthma [Philip Harber 2019] and mental health disorders [Chandler McClellan, 2017]. To our knowledge, no Twitter analysis has been performed for Valley fever. Valley fever is a fungal infection caused by the Coccidioides organism, mostly found in Arizona and California.

In 1977, R. E. Crabill, Jr., erected Ectonocryptops for a new Mexican centipede from Colima that he named, E. kraepelini. He placed it in the Cryptopidae, but with 23 pairs of legs and pedal segments, it properly belongs in the Scolopocryptopidae, subfamily Ectonocryptopinae, according to today's taxonomy (Shelley & Mercurio 2005). Crabill did not provide illustrations, and the holotype and only specimen, supposedly at the American Museum of Natural History, New York, USA (AMNH), was subsequently lost. Consequently, the identity of this centipede was uncertain until we (Shelley & Mercu
