Abstract
Hermes Atlas! Bronze-backed Titan stooped forever under the grinding weight of the house of the godsAtlas slept with a goddess and fathered Maia, who slept with almighty Zeus and gave birth to me, Hermes, the gods’ lackey. I’ve come here to Delphi, the world’s core where Bright Apollo sings to men what is, and chants forever what is to be. There is a city-it has had its share of glorynamed for Athena of the golden spear. There shining Apollo took Kreousa, King Erechtheus’ daughter, in wedlock, raped her in a cave, under Athena’s sacred hill. Athenian lords call that place the Long Rocks. Her father didn’t know. Apollo wanted her to bear the child, but in secret. When her time came, she took the newborn to the cave in which Apollo claimed her, exposing it there to die in its cradle’s wicker shell. And yet, Kreousa honored ancient tradition. When Erichthonios was born, pulled from the earth, Athena twined two snakes around the infant, placing him in the care of the daughters of Aglauros. To this day, Athenian children wear golden coiled snakes at their throat. Thus, Kreousa, swaddling her baby as best she could, left him there to die.
The Freewheeling Janies Worden Wins Another Race
Authors: Sherman Joe 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
James D. Worden and Anita Rajan founded Solectria Corporation in 1989, shortly after he had graduated from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology with a degree in mechanical engineering. By 1994, Solectria had emerged as a technology leader in the electric vehicle (EV) industry, an industry that hoped to reinvent the car. In those days, close observers of the new and speculative industry often referred to Worden simply as “James,” confident that the narrow circle of those who knew about electric cars and their technologies would know who they meant.
James Testifies on the Promise of Clean Cars
Authors: Sherman Joe 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
James Worden thought so. “We’ve pulled these cars out of the hands of the backyard hobbyists and put them in the hands of people,” he said, not long after the 1994 American Tour de Sol. “They’reusable. They’re tinker-free. It used to be, definitely, one of those things like with gas cars in 1898 or something-if you were willing to tinker and get into it, you could have one. Until pretty recently, electric cars were reserved for people who didn’t mind playing with them. Now we’ve made them simple and very efficient, so they can go far enough without trouble.”
Racing Solar-Electric Cars at MIT
Authors: Sherman Joe 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
When Worden put up posters inviting students to come to a meeting, he caught the eye of Catherine Anderson. A freshman at MIT, Anderson had also gone to Arlington High School. There, she had n’t known Worden well, though they had played together in the band (she violin, he trumpet), but she had worked some on Solectria III. During her senior year in high school Anderson had been repairing bikes at Bicycle Corner in Arlington when Worden came in and asked for help on the solar race car he was building at his parent’s place with the $5,000 he’d received from Mirak Chevrolet.
Air: This Marvelously Tattered Canopy
Authors: Sherman Joe 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
In 1987 and 1988, environmentalists were already beginning to call the entire 1980s the “lost decade” because of the hostility of the Reagan administration toward the pro-environmental agenda that had been set in the 1970s and the administration’s success in stalling that agenda’s momentum. Not that James Worden, Catherine Anderson, and the rest of the Solar Car Racing Team cared much about lost environmental initiatives or momentum. Or if they did, they did n’t preach about it. It was n’t their style to get boisterous and judgmental about suspected wrongs.
Getting Sunrise into the Mainstream

Published: November 2023

Abstract
In Wilmington, James Worden was reluctantly accepting the fact that reinventing the car, leading its next big adventure, was a feat the Big Boys were going to pull off, though they-or at least one of them-sure could use Solectria’s help. “The big automakers could use us, “Worden said early in 1996. “But sometimes I think they’re afraid of us.” He now envisioned a joint venture, one to which Solectria would bring its advanced EV technologies and composite building know-how, and the partner would bring money and assembly capability.
The Discovery of Clergy Sex Abuse
Authors: Jenkins Philip 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
In the past decade the image of the sexually exploitative priest has revived with remarkable vigor. Throughout the century there have been isolated incidents when a Catholic priest was believed to be “visiting the ladies,” and such behavior might lead to local scandals, but these rarely attracted wider concern. In only a few instances did cases involving children and minors lead to actual prosecutions, and even then these received little media attention unless the circumstances were highly unusual. In 1977, for example, the Detroit press made much of allegations that a priest had molested a twelve-year-old boy, but this was because of speculation that the incident might be linked to a notorious series of unsolved child murders in Oakland County. This was a rare instance in which the media presented stories, however briefly, about “rampant indiscretions within the priesthood.” The Oakland County case was a glaring exception to a general picture of order and tranquility, which in retrospect we know to have been misleading. There were certainly cases in the 1960s and 1970s when Catholic clergy were found to be sexually involved with children or adult parishioners. However, the media generally cooperated with the church in avoiding scandal. Clerical offenders were dealt with quietly, usually being transferred from their parishes without obvious publicity, and were required to submit to periods of seclusion and therapy that were neither long nor arduous.
Pedophilia and Child Abuse
Authors: Jenkins Philip 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
In recent studies of social problems, the media have come under attack for the dissemination of false or misleading information; an element of “media hype” is widely acknowledged. This is especially true in the presentation of exaggerated statistics.’ In the issue of missing and abducted children, for example, press reporting of the early and mid- l 980s offered wildly inflated figures that promoted a sense of national crisis.2 Media treatment of clergy abuse certainly has been subject to criticism, but there have been strikingly few complaints about the general accuracy of the problem as it has been depicted. Except in some early coverage, we do not find assertions that charges are false in particular cases, or denials that abuse is widespread, and the church’s record of misconduct and neglect is broadly accepted.
The Legal Environment
Authors: Jenkins Philip 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
If a scandal like the Porter affair had erupted many years earlier, say, during the mid- l 950s, church authorities would have feared social consequences very different from those imagined by their modern-day counterparts. In the 1950s a hypothetical priest-abuse scandal might well have affected the political position of the culprit’s superiors. The affair would have been discussed for its likely impact on anti-Catholic movements and politics, and might have affected the electoral position of Catholic­ supported candidates or parties. Earlier still, there might have been fears of riots and social disorder. However, the worst speculations about the case’s impact would have differed radically from modern circumstances in that they would not have included a financial or legal impact vaguely comparable to that of the recent cases. When observers of the mid- l 980s considered the likelihood of future abuse scandals, it was natural to emphasize the financial dimension because damages from legal actions might well run into billions of dollars. Incidents of this sort can now be very ex­ pensive for those adjudged guilty of malpractice or professional misconduct, and successful plaintiffs can receive enormous sums of money. This may seem an obvious point, but litigation of this sort is a relatively new phenomenon in American history, and the legal environment that permits it has developed quite recently, mainly in the past quarter century.
Pluralism and Pragmatism
Authors: Kraemer David 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
If it is true that there is a gap between God’s will as recorded in Written Torah and rabbinic application as recorded in Oral Torah, then this may (or may not) have consequences in practice. If the rabbis recognized and admitted this reality, as I argued in chapter 5, then they would be forced to consider the problem of unity or diversity in community norms. Multiple opinions are the inevitable result of imperfect interpretive processes. Are alternatives to be suppressed in practice, as the heavenly decision in favor of Hillel might suggest, or is there room for multiplicity not only in theory (the evidence for which is found on every page of Talmudic deliberation) but in practice as well? If my readings of prior texts approach the truth of rabbinic perception, then this is a question that cannot be avoided.
Balancing Needs

Published: November 2023

Abstract
IN THE SUMMER AND fall of 1942, Roosevelt impatiently awaited the as sault on North Africa. Eager for a victory over German arms that would open the way to a European campaign and answer domestic and Russian demands for action, he pressed all concerned “to start the attack at the earliest possible moment. Time is of the essence,” he told Churchill at the end of August, “and we are speeding up preparations vigorously.” When facing a choice in the following month between a full-scale convoy to Russia and TORCH as scheduled, he refused to delay the attack for “a single day. We are going to put everything in that operation,” he cabled Churchill, “and I have great hopes for it.”There were also substantial fears. The Germans might learn of the attack prematurely; Axis submarines might inflict heavy losses on convoys carrying men and materiel from Britain and the United States; high swells and surf on the African Atlantic coast might jeopardize the Moroc can landings; the Germans might move through Spain into Spanish Morocco, close the Strait of Gibraltar, and trap ships and troops invading Algeria inside the Mediterranean; French forces might offer effective resistance.
The Drama of Helping :Stories and Role Models
Authors: Wuthnow Robert 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
The scripts about caring that young people learn when they volunteer are indicative of the roles in complex organizations that most of us play during adulthood. These scripts give us a way of making sense of our behavior in terms of organizational goals (such as education or service to the community), the appropriate means of obtaining these goals (for example, developing specialized skills), and the criteria by which the behavior is to be evaluated (especially its efficiency and effectiveness). All this sounds very rational, as it fits one conception of organizations that indeed emphasizes their rationality. Volunteering is thus a training ground for life in the world of organizations. If it teaches us to be kind, it does so by molding our kindness to fit the demands of organizational life.
Hermeneutical Practice: Halakhic Difference as a Result of Dialectical Strategies of Interpretation and Redaction
Authors: Hayes Christine Elizabeth 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
In the preceding analysis of the hermeneutical presuppositions of the amoraim, I argued that the amoraim began to approach the language of the Mishnah as if it were Scripture. Just as the rabbis’ biblical exegesis presupposed a certain precision in the language of the text, and an absence of superfluity and redundancy, so their exegesis of Mishnah often proceeded from the same assumptions of verbal economy. However, the similarity between the rabbis’ exegesis of Bible and their exegesis of Mishnah extends beyond the realm of theory (i.e., hermeneutical presuppositions) and into the realm of actual exegetical practice (hermeneutical strategies). For the rabbis, to read a text-whether Bible or Mishnah-meant to read that text in the light of, or in dialogue with, other texts.
The Israelite Midwife
Authors: Hayes Christine Elizabeth 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
The following case contains evidence of a conscious emendation of the Palestinian law of the Mishnah, an emendation that appears to have been endorsed by R. Joseph, a second-century Babylonian amora. The Yerushalmi contains no such emendation. An interpretive irregularity in the Bavli signals the susceptibility of the sugya to cultural-historical analysis. As in the previous example, the gemara provides an explicit cultural-historical explanation for halakhic difference which must be critically assessed. In this case, however, the reason provided by the gemara is shown to have merit. Reading the halakhic sources in conjunction with a central aggadic text confirms the explanation provided by R. Joseph and reveals that the Bavli’s emendation addressed a cultural issue alive in various Jewish circles in late antique Palestine and Babylonia. This finding also illustrates the importance for the cultural historian of the talmudic period of examining texts of various genres.

Lifelines
Authors: Bacon Jean 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
Asian Indians figure prominently among the educated, middle class subset of contemporary immigrants. They move quickly into residences, jobs, and lifestyles that provide little opportunity with fellow migrants, yet they continue to see themselves as a distinctive community within contemporary American society. In Life Lines Bacon chronicles the creation of a community - Indian-born parents and their children living in the Chicago metropolitan area - bound by neither geographic proximity, nor institutional ties, and explores the processes through which ethnic identity is transmitted to the next generation. Bacon’s study centres upon the engrossing portraits of five immigrant families, each one a complex tapestry woven from the distinctive voices of its family members. Both extensive field work among community organizations and analyses of ethnic media help Bacon expose the complicated interplay between the private social interactions of family life and the stylized rhetoric of “Indianness” that permeates public life. This inventive analysis suggests that the process of assimilation which these families undergo parallels the assimilation process experienced by anyone who conceives of him or herself as a member of a distinctive community in search of a place in American society.
The Scope and Significance of Epigraphy in Indological Studies
Authors: Salomon Richard 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
Though it has been frequently stated, the importance of epigraphy in Indology can hardly be overemphasized. The primary reason for the particular importance of epigraphy in the study of traditional India (as compared, e.g., with that of classical Europe or China) is the extreme paucity, especially in the ancient period, of the type of historical data from literary sources which is available for other major civilizations of the ancient and medieval world. This situation is a reflection of what might be called the “a historical” orientation of traditional Indian culture. Traditional India, with its strongly idealistic and theoretical orientation, had little interest in what we in the modem world think of as “history,” and except for a few outstanding exceptions Sanskrit and classical literature include little in the way of “historical” texts in the stricter sense of the term. As a result, the history of ancient and early medieval (i.e., pre-Islamic) India must for the most part be reconstructed from incidental sources; that is, sources whose original intent was something other than the recording of historical events as such. Such sources include many branches of literature, both secular and religious, but these typically give us little more than tantalizing tidbits of historical information, often distorted, and out of context at that. Far more revealing are the archaeological sources, including not only the results of formal stratigraphic excavations but also numismatic and above all epigraphic materials.
Arab Imperialism and the Vanquished Nations
Authors: Sann Tamara 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
This is the import of the foregoing chapter: The great problem and most important issue with which the greatest leaders of the past age were concerned, and with which the scholars and leaders of this age still deal, is the issue of reconciliation between the welfare of opposing classes; that is, between the welfare of the rich and the poor, of the elite and the destitute; between the owners of the means of production and land, and the workers and farmers. This problem, with which the Arab reformer dealt, and which he tried to solve to the extent that the conditions of that time allowed him, shifted after his death to his caliphs. However, there were some changes, for political and social problems became more complex after the great Arab victories in the days of the first four caliphs (Rashidun) and the Umayyads and the incorporation of other ancient civilizations and different religions. The result was a new social situation in which relations among classes in Islamic society were strained. This tension reached a degree that threatened the out break of severe clashes, which would have meant the virtual collapse and death of the Arab state. Among the factors contributing to these tensions were the imperialist policies of the Arabs in general, and their economic policies in particular.
Holding True
Authors: Balmer Randall 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
It it here that Trinity Lutheran Church of Freistatt, Missouri, both honors its heritage and prepares for its future. Soon after Martin Luther had tacked his Ninety-five Theses to the cathedral door at Wittenberg, thereby triggering the Protestant Reformation, he recognized the need for education among the laity. His tour of the German countryside in 1528 left him aghast at the dismal levels of education among his fellow Germans. Luther believed that his reforms depended in no small mea sure upon popular understanding of both the Bible and Protestant the ology. Luther’s own translation of the Bible into the vernacular made the Scriptures accessible, and his Small Catechism outlined the rudiments of Protestant doctrine, but popular acceptance of both, he recognized, depended upon a literate laity.

There are many similarities between Mount Olivet Lutheran Church today and in 1950. All of the Sunday morning services-three then and four now-are full. Now, as then, the preacher kept the sermon short, although the twenty-minute homily of 1950 has been reduced to ten minutes, twelve tops. The music is impressive, just as it was in 1950. And, oh yes, the pastor’s name still’is Youngdahl.
Introduction and a Brief Review of Experimental Systems
Authors: Imry Yoseph 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
1. GENERALITIES
Much of solid state theory and statistical physics is concerned with the properties of macroscopic systems. These are often considered while using the “thermodynamic limit” (system’s volume, Ω, and particle number, N, tending to infinity with n = N /Ω kept constant), which is a convenient mathematical device for obtaining bulk properties. Usually, the system approaches the macroscopic limit once its size is much larger than some correlation length ζ (or, more generally, than all such relevant lengths).
Dephasing by Coupling with the Environment, Application to Coulomb Electron-Electron Interactions in Metals
Authors: Imry Yoseph 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
INTRODUCTION AND REVIEW OF THE PRINCIPLES OF DEPHASING
Many of the interesting effects in mesoscopic systems are due to quantum interference. Among these are, for example, the weak localization corrections to the conductivity (section 5, chapter 2), the universal conductance fluctuations (chapter 5), persistent currents (chapter 4), and many others. These effects are known to be affected by the coupling of the interfering particle to its environment, for example, to a heat bath. The way such a coupling modifies quantum phenomena has been studied for a long time, both theoretically (Feynman and Vernon 1963, Caldeira and Leggett 1983), and experimentally. The effect of the coupling to the environment may be characterized by the “phase breaking” time, T¢,, which is the characteristic time for the interfering particle to stay phase coherent as explained below.
Antisemitism and Xenophobia in Germany since Unification
Authors: Bergmann Werner 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
Various phenomena may be analyzed in order to ascertain the extent and significance of antisemitism in society: public opinion; the attitude of the intellectual elite; treatment by the media; antiminority activities; government treatment of Jews and antisemites in politics, the courts, and education; the ideology and activities of right-wing organizations, and the like. The results vary according to the chosen subject of the analysis. I shall concentrate on public attitudes toward Jews and foreigners on the one hand and on open, sometimes violent acts of antisemitism and xenophobia on the other; I shall also examine the connections between the two. Antisemitism and xenophobia will be treated separately. Although they correlate highly with each other, I believe they vary in terms of motives, prevalence, and public acceptance.
Ethnic Intolerance, Extremism, and Democratic Attitudes in Germany since Unification
Authors: Weil Frederick D 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
As often happens, press and scholarly accounts diverge in describing developments in Germany since reunification. The press and media tend to focus on signs of popular discontent with democracy, political extremism, xenophobia, and antisemitism, especially in eastern Germany. Scholars present a more varied view. Although they find plenty of indications of discontent with the economic burdens of reunification, little evidence has emerged that Germans have veered sharply toward antidemocratic, extremist, or bigoted attitudes. On the contrary, West German attitudes on these fundamental issues have not deteriorated much since the Berlin Wall came down, and surprisingly, East Germans often express even more democratic or tolerant views. in this chapter, I shall examine trends in antisemitism and xenophobia since reunification against the backdrop of attitudes toward democracy and political extremism. The main outlines of the period arc well known. For the first two years after the Berlin Wall fell in the autumn of 1989, reunification seemed to progress with unexpected ease. In July 1990, East Germans were permitted to convert their currency to Western deutsche marks (DM) on generous terms. Legal reunification occurred in October I 990, much sooner than anyone had thought possible.
