The Question

During France’s Algerian War (1954– 62), the French journalist Henri Alleg sided with the insurgents. Arrested by French authorities in June 1957, Alleg was detained and tortured. During his confinement he managed to write and smuggle out an account of his experi- ences. Originally published in 1958, The Question was quickly banned by the French government, the first such action France had taken since the eigh- teenth century. The book nonetheless became a sensation

15Md158: Excavations and Lithic Analysis of a Late Archaic/Early Woodland Lithic Workshop Site in Meade County, Kentucky.

This thesis describes archaeological investigations carried out at 15Md158, a prehistoric lithic workshop site in Meade County, Kentucky. Although there has been a wide range of diagnostic projectile points as well as some late radiocarbon dates recovered from the site had been identified as a mostly Late Archaic special purpose site where mostly late-stage lithic reduction took place. The goals of this project were to develop a more secure chronology for the site, document a change in the use of the site in order to relate it to changes in mobility patterns of those who utilized the site, and document if different areas of the site were used for different stages of the lithic reduction process. In order to answer these questions a series of five test units were excavated in the areas of the site that contained the greatest densities of lithic artifacts. The artifact assemblage that was collected was subjected to a production trajectory analysis that was used to look for vertical and horizontal patterning. The artifact assemblage from 15Md158 was found to reflect a long production trajectory, meaning that the full range of the lithic reduction process took place at this site. This study was not successful in finding vertical or horizontal patterning in the artifact assemblage, although it was successful in developing a more secure chronology for the site. The investigation found that the site was most heavily utilized during the Late Archaic and Early Woodland periods. Furthermore, this study found that the site may be associated with a network of lithic manufacturing sites in the region that were used for the specialized manufacture of trade and ritual artifacts from Wyandotte, a blue-gray chert which was heavily traded during the time periods the periods that the site was utilized

Achieving Integration in Mixed Methods Designs—Principles and Practices

Mixed methods research offers powerful tools for investigating complex processes and systems in health and health care. This article describes integration principles and practices at three levels in mixed methods research and provides illustrative examples. Integration at the study design level occurs through three basic mixed method designs—exploratory sequential, explanatory sequential, and convergent—and through four advanced frameworks—multistage, intervention, case study, and participatory. Integration at the methods level occurs through four approaches. In connecting, one database links to the other through sampling. With building, one database informs the data collection approach of the other. When merging, the two databases are brought together for analysis. With embedding, data collection and analysis link at multiple points. Integration at the interpretation and reporting level occurs through narrative, data transformation, and joint display. The fit of integration describes the extent the qualitative and quantitative findings cohere. Understanding these principles and practices of integration can help health services researchers leverage the strengths of mixed methods.Peer Reviewedhttp://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/101791/1/hesr12117.pdfhttp://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/101791/2/hesr12117-sup-0001-AuthorMatrix.pd

Management of phosphorus for crop production

This article continues a series that provides producers with information that will aid in phosphorus (P) management and in understanding environmental issues related to P management. It focuses on P management for crop production with attention to fertilization strategies, application methods, related soil management aspects, and environmental issues

Phosphorus - Why the concern about water quality?

This article concludes a series that provides producers with information to help with on-farm management of phosphorus (P) and in understanding the complex economic and environmental issues involved in P management. This article discusses potential regulatory action and offers options to help producers move toward compliance. Iowa has many water quality challenges. It may be helpful to take a step back from the science of water quality and review the politics of water quality. What are some potential regulations and what can producers do to be in compliance

Soil resources of phosphorus

This article continues a series that provides producers with information to aid in phosphorus (P) management and in understanding environmental issues related to P management. This article focuses on the presence and behavior of P in the soil. The nature, amount, distribution, and chemical composition of P compounds in soil are closely related to the classic factors of soil formation--climate, organisms, parent material, topography, and time. Because we have tilled, fertilized, drained, and allowed soils to erode, the form and amount of P in the surface horizon has changed
