Emil Hermann Fischer, born October 9, 1852, in Euskirchen, Germany, received the Nobel Prize in chemistry in 1902 for his elucidations of the structure of sugars and the synthesis of purines. His father, a very successful lumber merchant, intended Emil to join the family business upon completion of his secondary school education. Young Fischer showed exceptional abilities as a student in the natural sciences, particularly in physics. In 1859 he dutifully entered his father s business, but showed little aptitude for commerce. In frustration his father enrolled him at the University of Bonn in 1871 to study chemistry, which at least had practical applications. [Pg.101]

We recently sought to determine if the sex difference in odor identification ability observed in American Blacks and Whites (Doty et al., 1984a, b Figure 1) was also present in American Koreans and Native Japanese subjects. In this research, the University of Pennsylvania Smell Identification Test (a 40-item standardized forced-choice test with microencapsulated odors) was administered to 438 Black Americans, 1559 White Americans, 106 Korean Americans, and 308 Native Japanese. The Black and White Americans were comprised mainly of university employees and students, participants in regional health fairs, primary and secondary school students, and youngsters enrolled at summer camps and day care centers. The Korean Americans were part of a Sunday school population at a local Korean church, whereas the Japanese subjects were members of the staff and faculty of a hospital in a medium-sized Japanese metropolitan city (Kawasaki-shi). [Pg.675]

The study population consisted of 1884 healthy newborns, infants, children and adolescents enrolled from nurseries, well-baby clinics, kindergartens, and elementary and secondary schools. All children were screened by a specially designed questionnaire, then examined on supine position by a pediatrician, and checked by a pediatric cardiologist. Age was expressed as days, months and years attained at the last birthday. They were divided into twelve age groups newborns aged less than 1 day, 1-3 days, 3-7 days, and 7-30 days infants aged 1-3 months, 3-6 months, and 6-12 months children of 1-3 years, 3-6 years, 6-9 years, 9-13 years and adolescents, 13-18 years. [Pg.16]

The impact of waivers on service providers capacity to adjust to increased utilization needs to be assessed. Some evidence suggests that the introduction of waivers has created additional pressure in areas where capacity was already limited. The elimination of primary school fees has also had a large impact on the number of children going to school, and thus on the number of teachers and textbooks needed. While some countries such as Kenya have been successful in replacing lost funds, others such as Malawi have not been able to replace the lost revenues (Wilson 2006 World Bank 2007f). In Colombia, the introduction of vouchers for secondary schools placed additional stress on schools that had already reached full capacity. At that time, 1992, the secondary enrollment rate was only 75 percent overall, and as low as 55 percent for the poorest quintile of the population. The capacity constraint was overcome with a unique partnership between the private and public sectors (Braun-Munzinger 2005). ... [Pg.330]

Alexander Naumovich Frumkin came fi om a Jewish background. He was the youngest child of Naum Yefimovich Frumkin (1855-1934), an insurance salesman, and Margarita L vovna Frumkina (1863-1949), his wife. Soon after the birth of Alexander, the family moved to Odessa, a cosmopolitan seaport on the Black Sea. It was there that Alexander passed his childhood and youth. A formative influence on his scientific development was his enrolment in St. Paul s Secondary School (Realschule) in Odessa. This was a culturally German school, which served the diverse population of this thriving community. [Pg.50]

A fundamental question arising from the apparent tension between equity and excellence is how can a school become equitable for diverse groups of learners (that is, inclusive because they accommodate difference) as well as be excellent for all (that is, demonstrate achievement gains for all children and young people) Our earlier research on inclusive practice in secondary schools (Florian and Rouse, 2001) has led to a conceptualisation of inclusive schools as those that meet the dual criteria of enrolling a diverse student population and of constantly... [Pg.29]

Thomas Midgley, Jr., was born in Beaver Falls, Pennsylvania, on May 18, 1889. In 1895 his family moved to Columbus, Ohio, where Midgley attended elementary and high school. In 1905, he enrolled at the Betts Academy in Stamford, Connecticut, to complete his secondary education. Two years later, he was accepted in the mechanical engineering program at Cornell University, from which he received his degree in 1911. [Pg.70]
