developed midwifery, that the U.S.A. had developed nursing, but that Britain had managed to combine them in the way that was needed. Accordingly, she and her nurses took midwifery training in London. But she was also convinced that the nurse-midwife could and should combine sick nursing and preventive work, something that many Britons, then and now, see as far from ideal. We could do worse than...

Beginning computer science students often have great difficulty with the analysis and design of solutions to programming related problems. Using the Shuttle Puzzle problem as a vehicle the process of analyzing a problem and synthesizing observations into an algorithm is presented in a detailed, step-by-step manner. Introduction When I was child and went to visit my grandparents, I would often e...

Over the past three decades the protein folding field has undergone monumental changes. Originally a purely academic question, how a protein folds has now become vital in understanding diseases and our abilities to rationally manipulate cellular life by engineering protein folding pathways. We review and contrast past and recent developments in the protein folding field. Specifically, we discus...

In this document I describe how the standard way the socle operator is set up for a module, and a neater way is can be set up using the lattice of submodules. I indicate why this way is neater by showing how the construction can be iterated. I go through the various constructions first for the straight socle, and then for the socle relative to a given hereditary torsion theory.
