The Idaho Territorial Penitentiary's First Female Inmate, Fred E. Woods
The Idaho Territorial Penitentiary's First Female Inmate, Fred E. Woods
Faculty Publications
While doing research on the experience of Mormon polygamists incarcerated at the Idaho Penitentiary, Fred Woods became curious about a woman imprisoned there at the same time. The Idaho Penitentiary's Convict Register names "Heneba" as the first female inmate received, on May 31, 1887. Next to her name is written in parentheses "squaw." For many years it has been unclear whether "Heneba" was her first or last name and what the background of this mysterious Native American was. Information about her age at the time of her incarceration, her family life, and the details of her later years and death …
Observations On The Reproduction, Sources Of Mortality, And Diet Of The Kendall Warm Spring Dace, Andrew D. Gryska, Wayne A. Hubert
Observations On The Reproduction, Sources Of Mortality, And Diet Of The Kendall Warm Spring Dace, Andrew D. Gryska, Wayne A. Hubert
Great Basin Naturalist
The life history of the endangered Kendall Warm Springs dace (Rhinichthys osculus thermalis) is largely unknown. Our study of its reproduction, sources of mortality, and diet indicated that Kendall Warm Springs dace seem to be reproductively active throughout the year, but the rate of reproduction appears to decrease during the winter. Males become sexually mature at 34 mm total length and females at 40 mm total length. We observed 2 sources of mortality: (1) emigration from the warm spring over a waterfall into the Green River and (2) predation on larvae by dragonfly (Libellula saturata) nymphs. …

Relationship Satisfaction: Impact And Consequences For Women's Emotional Health And Treatment, Carolyn I. Wright, Dean M. Busby
Relationship Satisfaction: Impact And Consequences For Women's Emotional Health And Treatment, Carolyn I. Wright, Dean M. Busby
Faculty Publications
This study uses feminist theory to examine the variables of relationship length and relationship satisfaction as predicators of both self-esteem and emotional functioning for women. Using a national sample of data gathered from 1,257 female survey respondents this study found significant relationships between emotional functioning, self-esteem, and self-reported relationship satisfaction which was supported by regression testing and path analysis. In addition, a significant negative relationship was noted between a woman's self-esteem and her with-holding of verbalized displeasure or disagreement with her partner. Implications for women in therapy were discussed.

Changes In Network Characteristics And Hiv Risk Behavior Among Injection Drug Users, John P. Hoffmann, S. Susan Su, Alfred Pach
Changes In Network Characteristics And Hiv Risk Behavior Among Injection Drug Users, John P. Hoffmann, S. Susan Su, Alfred Pach
Faculty Publications
Studies indicate that HIV risk behaviors vary greatly among injection drug users (IDUs). The source of such variation is often ascribed to individual differences, but much of it is due to how IDUs are grouped into social networks. Nevertheless, given the turbulent and uncertain lives led by many IDUs, it would not be surprising if their social networks changed substantially over time. We used data from a study of the social networks of IDUs in Chicago and Washington, DC, to examine changes in individual behavior and network characteristics over time. The results indicated few changes in standard network measures, such …

Book Review: Das Selbstverstiindnis Eines Schweizerischen Auswanderer-Vereins In Den Usa: Die Geschichte Der Zeitschrift Swiss-American Historical Society Review,", Sabine Jessner
Swiss American Historical Society Review
Racine's work treats two subjects: the Society and the contents of the Swiss-American Historical Society Review. After a brief overview of the Society's first decades following its 1927 founding in Chicago, she traces in detail its evolution since 1965. The structure of the organization and the gender, educational, and geographical distribution of the membership are discussed. Although the diplomat Lukas Burckhardt reorganized the Society in 1965, the author fails to underscore his important role, while she does stress the leading part that academics--especially historians--have played. She-stresses Leo Schelbert's many contributions to the history of Swiss-American immigration, offering a review …
Book Review: The New Switzerland Problems And Policies, Nicole Butz
Book Review: The New Switzerland Problems And Policies, Nicole Butz
Swiss American Historical Society Review
This volume, edited by Rolf Kieser and Kurt R. Spillmann, consists of twentyeight essays written by a group of Swiss scholars and officials. Originally intended as a new edition of the 1978 volume Modern Switzerland (edited by J. Murray Luck, Lukas F. Burckhardt, and Hans Haug), The New Switzerland nonetheless differs significantly in content and perspective from its earlier counterpart. As noted by the editors in the preface, the book does not attempt to provide its readers with a comprehensive account of Switzerland; rather, it seeks to inform a broad international audience through "a discussion of the present and future …

Im Nonnengarten : An Anthology Of German Women's Writing 1850-1907, Michelle Stott James
Resources
The female-authored stories collected in this anthology originated during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, a time that witnessed some of the most significant changes ever experienced in European society: the rise of industrialism and the decline of the agrarian state; the decline of the aristocracy; a growing awareness of the plight of the underclasses; the new ideas of thinkers such as Marx, Darwin, Nietzsche and Freud, whose theories revolutionized the way humans understood themselves and their relationship to their environment; the beginnings of the Women's Movement and the accompanying gains in mobility, political rights, and educational and professional …

To "Eche Out Our Performance With Your Mind": Making Performance Pedagogy Intellectually Sound, Sharon A. Beehler
To "Eche Out Our Performance With Your Mind": Making Performance Pedagogy Intellectually Sound, Sharon A. Beehler
Quidditas
When the Chorus in Henry V instructs the audience about what to expect in Act III, it reiterates the point made earlier in the play that the spectator must take an active role in helping the players achieve their goal of presenting an effective drama: "eche out our performance with your mind" (line 35), says the Chorus. This would seem to be a commonplace of theater theory, but unfortunately, recent attempt by some teachers to incorporate televisual performance activities into the Shakespeare classroom have all too often neglected the intellectual participation of students with "performance texts," that is, with printed …
