Physiognomy in Ming China: Fortune and the Body
Series: Sinica Leidensia, Volume: 149
Author: Xing Wang
In Physiognomy in Ming China: Fortune and the Body, Xing Wang investigates the intellectual and technical contexts in which the knowledge of physiognomy ( xiangshu) was produced and transformed in Ming China (1368-1644 C.E.). Known as a fortune-telling technique via examining the human body and material objects, Xing Wang shows how the construction of the physiognomic body in many Ming texts represent a unique, unprecedented 'somatic cosmology'. Applying an anthropological reading to these texts and providing detailed analysis of this technique, the author proves that this physiognomic cosmology in Ming China emerged as a part of a new body discourse which differs from the modern scholarly discourse on the body.

Aëtiana V (4 vols.)
An Edition of the Reconstructed Text of the Placita with a Commentary and a Collection of Related Texts
Series: Philosophia Antiqua, Volume: 153
Editors: Jaap Mansfeld and David Runia
A new reconstruction and text of the Placita of Aëtius (ca. 50 CE), accompanied by a full commentary and an extensive collection of related texts. This compendium, arguably the most important doxographical text to survive from antiquity, is known through the intensive use made of it by authors in later antiquity and beyond. Covering the entire field of natural philosophy, it has long been mined as a source of information about ancient philosophers and their views. It now receives a thorough analysis as a remarkable work in its own right. This volume is the culmination of a five-volume set of studies on Aëtius (1997–2020): Aëtiana I, II (Parts 1&2), III, IV, V (Parts 1-4). It uses an innovative methodology to replace the seminal edition of Hermann Diels (1879).
The First World War and Health
Rethinking Resilience
Series: History of Warfare, Volume: 130
Editors: Leo Van Bergen and Eric Vermetten
The First World War and Health: Rethinking Resilience considers how the First World War (1914-1918) affected mental and physical health, its treatment, and how the victims – not only soldiers and sailors, but also medics, and even society as a whole - tried to cope with the wounds sustained. The volume, which contains over twenty articles divided into four sections (military, personal, medical, and societal resilience), therefore aims to broaden the scope of resilience: resilience is more than the personal ability to cope with hardship; if society as a whole cannot cope with, or even obstructs, personal recovery, resilience is difficult to achieve.
Contributors are Carol Acton, Julie Anderson, Leo van Bergen, Ana Carden-Coyne, Cédric Cotter, Dominiek Dendooven, Christine van Everbroeck, David Flecknoe, Christine Hallett, Hans-Georg Hofer, Edgar Jones, Wim Klinkert, Harold Kudler, Alexander McFarlane, Johan Meire, Heather Perry, Jane Potter, Fiona Reid, Jeffrey Reznick, Stephen Snelders, Hanneke Takken, Pieter Trogh, and Eric Vermetten.
Tracing Hospital Boundaries
Integration and Segregation in Southeastern Europe and Beyond, 1050-1970
Series: Clio Medica Onlineand Clio Medica, Volume: 102
Editors: Jane L. Stevens Crawshaw, Irena Benyovsky Latin and Kathleen Vongsathorn
Tracing Hospital Boundaries explores, for the first time, how the forces of both integration and segregation shaped hospitals and their communities between the eleventh and twentieth centuries in Europe, North America and Africa. Within this broad comparative context it also shines a light on a number of case studies from Southeastern Europe.
The eleven chapters show how people's access to, and experience of, healthcare institutions was affected by social, cultural and economic, as well as medical, dynamics. These same factors intersected with developing healthcare technologies to shape hospital design and location, as well as internal policies and practices. The volume produces a new history of the hospital in which boundaries – both physical and symbolic – are frequently redrawn and contested.
Contributors are Irena Benyovsky Latin, David Gentilcore, Annemarie Kinzelbach, Rina Kralj-Brassard, Ivana Lazarević, Clement Masakure, Anna Peterson, Egidio Priani, Gordan Ravančić, Jonathan Reinarz, Jane Stevens Crawshaw, David Theodore, Christina Vanja, George Weisz, and Valentina Živković.
A History of Population Health
Rise and Fall of Disease in Europe
Series: Clio Medica, Volume: 101
Author: Johan P. Mackenbach
In A History of Population Health Johan P. Mackenbach offers a broad-sweeping study of the spectacular changes in people's health in Europe since the early 18th century. Most of the 40 specific diseases covered in this book show a fascinating pattern of 'rise-and-fall', with large differences in timing between countries. Using a unique collection of historical data and bringing together insights from demography, economics, sociology, political science, medicine, epidemiology and general history, it shows that these changes and variations did not occur spontaneously, but were mostly man-made. Throughout European history, changes in health and longevity were therefore closely related to economic, social, and political conditions, with public health and medical care both making important contributions to population health improvement.

Series: Brill's Companions to European History, Volume: 20
Editors: Ann B. Tlusty and Mark Häberlein
A Companion to Late Medieval and Early Modern Augsburg introduces readers to major political, social and economic developments in Augsburg from c. 1400 to c. 1800 as well as to those themes of social and cultural history that have made research on this imperial city especially fruitful and stimulating. The volume comprises contributions by an international team of 23 scholars, providing a range of the most significant scholarly approaches to Augsburg's past from a variety of perspectives, disciplines, and methodologies. Building on the impressive number of recent innovative studies on this large and prosperous early modern city, the contributions distill the extraordinary range and creativity of recent scholarship on Augsburg into a handbook format.
Contributors are Victoria Bartels, Katy Bond, Christopher W. Close, Allyson Creasman, Regina Dauser, Dietrich Erben, Alexander J. Fisher, Andreas Flurschütz da Cruz, Helmut Graser, Mark Häberlein, Michele Zelinsky Hanson, Peter Kreutz, Hans-Jörg Künast, Margaret Lewis, Andrew Morrall, Marjorie Elizabeth Plummer, Barbara Rajkay, Reinhold Reith, Gregor Rohmann, Claudia Stein, B.

Magnes: Der Magnetstein und der Magnetismus in den Wissenschaften der Frühen Neuzeit
Series: Mittellateinische Studien und Texte, Volume: 53
Author: Christoph Sander
Why does a magnet attract iron? Why does a compass needle point north? Although the magnet or lodestone was known since antiquity, magnetism only became an important topic in natural science and technology in the early modern period. In Magnes Christoph Sander explores this fascinating subject and draws, for the first time, a comprehensive picture of early modern research on magnetism (c. 1500–1650). Covering all disciplines of this period, Magnes examines what scholars understood by 'magnet' and 'magnetism,' which properties they ascribed to it, in which instruments and practices magnetism was employed, and how they tried to explain this exciting phenomenon. This historical panorama is based on circa 1500 historical sources, including over 100 manuscripts.
Global Healing
Literature, Advocacy, Care
Series: Textxet: Studies in Comparative Literature, Volume: 92
Author: Karen Laura Thornber
In Global Healing: Literature, Advocacy, Care, Karen Laura Thornber analyzes how narratives from diverse communities globally engage with a broad variety of diseases and other serious health conditions and advocate for empathic, compassionate, and respectful care that facilitates healing and enables wellbeing.
The three parts of this book discuss writings from Africa, the Americas, Asia, Europe, the Middle East, and Oceania that implore societies to shatter the devastating social stigmas which prevent billions from accessing effective care; to increase the availability of quality person-focused healthcare; and to prioritize partnerships that facilitate healing and enable wellbeing for both patients and loved ones.
Thornber's Global Healing remaps the contours of comparative literature, world literature, the medical humanities, and the health humanities.
Hellenistic Astronomy
The Science in Its Contexts
Series: Brill's Companions to Classical Studies
Editors: Alan C. Bowen and Francesca Rochberg
In Hellenistic Astronomy: The Science in Its Contexts, new essays by renowned scholars address questions about what the ancient science of the heavens was in the ancient Near East and Mediterranean worlds, and the numerous contexts in which it was pursued. Together, these essays will enable readers not only to understand the technical accomplishments of this ancient science but also to appreciate their historical significance by locating the questions, challenges, and issues inspiring them in their political, medical, philosophical, literary, and religious contexts.
The Astronomical Clock of Strasbourg Cathedral
Function and Significance
Series: Scientific Instruments and Collections, Volume: 8
Author: Günther Oestmann
Strasbourg Cathedral's astronomical clock is one of the most famous and well-known astronomical clock monuments in the world. No other clock has been described and appreciated so often and in such a myriad of ways. This book gives a detailed delineation of the artistic and technical components of the 1571–74 clock and it presents the astronomical indications and the underlying conceptional framework. According to an hitherto unknown original source Günther Oestmann discovered a contemporary programmatic statement and that the clock displays four ways of determining the ascendant as described by Ptolemy. Oestmann ascertained that the Strasbourg clock is the result of a highly original reception of the architectural theory of Vitruvius and other mathematical and mechanical texts of Late Antiquity.

Eddie Jamoldroy Justice Was An Orlando Victim
By Alexi McCammond
The horrific June 12 mass shooting at the Pulse nightclub claimed 50 innocent lives and shook the nation to its core. Who was Eddie Jamoldroy Justice? The 30-year-old accountant was among the Orlando shooting victims and his last texts to his mother are so sad.
In the midst of the frightening events that took place inside Pulse, Justice managed to text his mother from a bathroom inside the venue. "Mommy I love you," Justice sent to his mother, Mina Justice, at approximately 2:06 a.m., the Associated Press reported. Mina told AP that she was fast asleep when this first text arrived.
"In club they shooting," Justice typed out and sent to his mother next. After Mina texted Justice asking if he was OK, at 2:07 a.m. Justice responded that he was trapped in the bathroom. Then, at 2:08 a.m., Justice sent his mother the one text no parent ever wants to read: "I'm going to die."
At this point, Mina told AP, she realized Justice was in danger, so she called 911. Justice was one of the numerous individuals held hostage inside the nightclub bathroom during the horrifying attack. At 2:39 a.m. Justice texted his mother saying, "Call them Mommy. Now." Minutes later he followed up: "He's coming. I'm gonna die."
Mina remembered her son as someone who liked to make people laugh, she told AP.
Justice worked as an accountant and lived in a condo in downtown Orlando. "Lives in a sky house, like the Jeffersons," Mina told AP. "He lives rich." Mina waited more than 15 hours after receiving her son's last text to get confirmation that he was one of the casualties in the attack.
The names of the Orlando shooting victims are beginning to be released and they will continue to be updated over the coming days.

Wakefield Express: New College PE department wins national FE Team of the Year Gold Award
The team from Pontefract New College with their award
The Pearson National Teaching Awards, which feature on the BBC's One Show every year, represent the highest award available for a teaching department.
New College took the FE Team of the Year Gold Award which was presented by the secretary of state for education, Nadhim Zahawi.
"It is a huge honour," said Tom Shepherd, director of sport at New College. "The award is for the whole team, and rightly so.
"All of them have given many hours of their time above and beyond their core jobs, to help students access additional training, gain volunteer experience and work with primary pupils here and abroad.
Vicky Marks, New College principal, added, "This award is so well deserved. The entire PE department work so hard at engaging all our students and staff in physical exercise and sport. Their approach to equality, working with Paralympic sports such as boccia and wheelchair basketball, speaks volumes about the college's commitment to being a welcoming and supportive community. We are delighted with their success."
This is not the first time that New College Pontefract have won a Pearson National Teaching Award. Last year the college's senior leadership team won the Silver Award in the same category, FE Team of the Year.

What is the concept of market competition?
There is market competition when economic profits are zero in the long run. That happens when prices equalizes marginal costs.
That is the cost of producing one extra unit of the good will be the exact price charged by that good.
The firms operating in this market face a perfect elasticity of demand for their products, therefore, any increase in their prices will make them lose sales because there are several actors in this market.
What are some examples of perfect competition?
How is perfect competition and monopoly similar or difference from each other?
What is a perfect competition market structure?
Why is perfect competition better than a monopoly?
What is a perfect competition?
What differentiates a perfect competition from a monopolistic competition?
Why should a firm shutdown if both its average total costs and average variable costs exceed the market price?
Are firms price makers or price takers in a perfect competition?

Country Guides / Maldives
Maldives Overview
The Maldives is an island nation in the Indian Ocean, also known as the Republic of Maldives. Is covers a land area of 298 square kilometers and has a population of 2.85 million. Most are ethnic Maldives. Islam is the state religion. The official language is Dhivehi, and the upper classes generally speak English. The currency is Lafia. The capital is Male (Male).
Maldives National Flag
The flag is a green rectangle containing a white crescent, with a green border. The red symbolizes the blood of heroes, while the green symbolizes life, progress, prosperity, peace, and tranquility and the white symbolizes the people of the Islamic faith.
The Sultanate was established in 1116 AD. Nearly 400 years later, the country suffered aggression and colonial rule under Portugal and the Netherlands. In 1887, it became a British "protectorate." The country was diverted to a constitutional monarchy in 1932. In 1952, the Maldives became a republic within the Commonwealth. In 1954, the constitutional monarchy was restored. On July 26, 1965, the Maldives declared independence. On November 11, 1968, the Republic was established, a presidential regime.
Maldives' vast waters hold abundant fishery resources, whose skipjack tuna is world famous. "Maldives fish," a famous specialty of Maldives Island, is made from tuna which is first cleaned, put Shaguan in the use of sea boiled, first fish, and then the offal and blood is done. Next, the fish bone is separated and cut into fillets, and then the fish is placed on bamboo shelves with smoking wood until the smoked fish turns black. Finally, the fish is exposed to the sun for a few days until it reaches the final concentration for storage. This is the "Maldives fish."
Maldives is the world's largest coral island. There are nineteen group of atolls and more than 1,200 coral islands. Some coral islands form colors like a wreath: around the outermost island is a flat beach, the top covered with coral reefs and white sand into the wind, the middle layer is made of Coconut trees, banana trees and other tall trees which form a green "ribbon," and the innermost layer is the seasonal blooming of flowers, with the white walls and red roofs of the house set off by the million flowers. Hence, the world knows it as the "garland island."
Fisheries, tourism, and shipping are the three pillars of the Maldives economy. As the tourism industry prospers on many desert islands, there more than 70 islands for romantic vacations, with each island and hotel having a distinctive and unique style. The advantage of the hotel facing the sea and its hidden space design won a reputation for being a "honeymoon haven."

Dramatic pictures, obtained by Brazilian TV station Bandeirantes, show the moment neighbouring buildings, farmland and parts of the town of Brumadinho were swallowed by muddy sludge in the disaster that has so far claimed more than 100 lives.
The wave of mud is now moving toward the Sao Francisco at about 1km/h but officials hope the Retiro Baixo hydroelectric dam and plant complex about 300km from Brumadinho will prevent the mud from contaminating it. Meanwhile, the police have arrested five people in connection with the Brazil dam collapse case, the report added.
Authorities and environmental organisations have begun testing water quality around the mining complex, while Brazil's state and federal authorities have told residents not to use water directly from the Paraopeba or 100m around it.
"It is totally devastated; it looks like there has been a war", said 23-year-old Edvan Cristi, who lost friends who worked at the mine.
Vale's assets were frozen amidst calls that they are to blame for the dam failure, and the Mayor of Brumadinho called the company "careless and incompetent" following the tragedy.

High-profile downtown property hits the market
By Ken Prendergast / August 13, 2021 November 20, 2021
A for-sale sign went up this week across East 9th Street from Progressive Field for a property now used as parking. The offering likely coincides with a major renovation of the neighboring major-league ballpark announced last week (Clifton Haworth).
CLICK IMAGES TO ENLARGE THEM
One week after a major renovation was announced for the home of the Cleveland Indians/Guardians, a highly visible and potentially attractive property nearby hit the market in downtown Cleveland.
The offering was announced this week with a large sign set up at the northeast corner of East 9th Street and Bolivar Road, across the street from Progressive Field. Geis Companies owns the five parcels being offered, originally acquiring them through two affiliates — Downtown Investment Group LLC and Geis Prospect Huron Garage LLC, county records show.
The firm listing the properties is Geis Property Management LLC, however the listing does not yet appear on the firm's Web site. Nor does it appear in the Commercial Exchange which lists all commercial sale and lease listings.
Site of the Geis Companies property being offered for sale is shown outlined in red. Progressive Field is seen at lower left across East 9th Street (Google).
Conrad Geis, director and managing partner at Geis Companies, said the property offering is a disposition. He said it was not intended to be an offer for a partnership in a development, something which Geis does on many projects including the pending redevelopment of the Rockefeller Building.
"It's not in the Web site yet but we are just marketing the property as being available," Geis said.
He said he was unable to further discuss the offering at this time. However, all options reportedly remain on the table for this reverse L-shaped 1.1-acre site. The parcels comprising this overall property provide frontage on East 9th, Bolivar and Prospect Avenue.
The timing of the offering comes just a week after the Cleveland Indians/Guardians announced a series of ambitious stadium renovations totaling $435 million as part of a lease extension to 2036 and possible extensions to 2046.
A variety of uses exist at the ballpark village in St. Louis, not just those patronized by game-day visitors. There is housing, hotels and offices that exist in this year-round setting (stballparkvillage.com).
There have also been reports for months, including here at NEOtrans, that Major League Baseball (MLB) wants more teams' owners and front offices to engage in the development of "ballpark villages" around their stadiums.
The goal of these villages is to provide retail, restaurants, housing, hotels and other supportive development near ballparks. St. Louis is one of the oft-cited models for MLB's desire for ballpark villages as is San Diego. Others are planned.
Not only would ballpark villages provide spin-off activity from 81 home baseball games per season but also be a year-round neighborhood. They might also provide a revenue stream to help support stadium upkeep and renovations through value-capture mechanisms such as tax-increment financing.
Geis' for-sale land is used as a surface parking lot and a low-level parking deck. The East 9th side was the site of the New York Spaghetti House from 1927-2001. After Geis bought it in 2015 for $1.5 million, it demolished the vacant structure.
A conceptual-level massing of a potential development on downtown Cleveland land now being offered for sale (GLSD).
At the time, a Geis company representative said the firm intended to develop the site, noting that the company is not in the parking business. And, considering how much it paid for the land, it intended to recoup its investment through development.
Real estate sources who would not go on the record said there were several development suitors and/ or potential partners for the site in the last few years. Geis also reportedly considered building a high-rise condominium tower on the site.
The pandemic halted at least one of those opportunities for a massive development whose conceptual massing is depicted on the sign now set up at East 9th and Bolivar.
That massing shows two towers about 20 stories tall on the property with one facing East 9th and the other facing Prospect. Ground floor retail topped by layers of parking with residential above appear to be what's shown in the conceptual-level illustration.

a novel by A. Huxley, published in 1936. Much criticized at the time for its pacifist ideology, it can now be read as an autobiographical, emotionally introspective work which marked Huxley's evolution from satirist to moralist. The carefully shuffled chronology of the novel is crucial in showing the development of Anthony Beavis, a detached observer of human behaviour insistent on his own freedom from commitment, to an awareness of his 'duties towards himself and others and the nature of things'. It opens on 30 August 1933, Beavis's forty-second birthday, then shifts back and forth between 1902 and 1935, covering the death of his mother and the suicide of his ascetic schoolfriend Brian Foxe; sexual affairs with Mary Amberley and subsequently her daughter Helen; the miraculous meeting with Dr Miller whilst in Mexico and consequent involvement in the peace movement. Miller, a vehicle for the ideas of Gerald Heard and F. M. Alexander, urges him to get beyond the ego and practise meditation, self-healing, and pacifism; such analytic musings are incorporated via Beavis's diary entries and reflect Huxley's almost contemporaneous adoption of the Reverend Dick Sheppard's Peace Pledge Union and the Alexander Technique of posture training. Eyeless in Gaza, which ends with a stream-of-consciousness mystical perception of 'the unity of life', is indicative of the increasingly non-dramatic and prescriptive nature of Huxley's later works.
