THE AUTHOR DISCUSSES HOW POLISH WORKERS INFLUENCED POLAND'S ECONOMIC TRANSFORMATION FROM 1989 TO 1993 AND HOW THEY WERE AFFECTED BY THE ECONOMIC AND POLITICAL CHANGES. HE FINDS THAT THE POLITICAL INFLUENCE OF POLISH WORKERS DURING THE FIRST FOUR YEARS OF THE POST-COMMUNIST ERA WAS SURPRISINGLY MEAGER. THE SOLIDARITY TRADE UNION SPLIT INTO A NUMBER OF SMALL, BICKERING FACTIONS WHOSE POLITICAL INFLUENCE WAS OFTEN MARGINAL. NO COHESIVE WORKERS' MOVEMENT OR COMPARABLE ENTITY AROSE TO FILL THE VOID LEFT BY SOLIDARITY.

Focuses on a small set of writings grouped under the signature of G. A. Cohen. Chief among these texts is Karl Marx's Theory of History, a tour de force of the analytic style of philosophizing that has prevailed in Great Britain and the United States for most of this century. Outlines Cohen's principal arguments relating to his so-called Primacy Thesis. Probes certain points of conflict between Cohen's mode of expression (or the way his text works) and his prime substantive themes (or what his text says). (JLN)

12 pags., 5 figs., 2 apps. ; We analyze a quantized toy model of a universe undergoing eternal inflation using a quantum-field-theoretical formulation of the Wheeler–DeWitt equation. This so-called third quantization method leads to the picture that the eternally inflating universe is converted to a multiverse in which sub-universes are created and exhibit a distinctive phase in their evolution before reaching an asymptotic de Sitter phase. From the perspective of one of these sub-universes, we can thus analyze the pre-inflationary phase that arises naturally. Assuming that our observable universe is represented by one of those sub-universes, we calculate how this pre-inflationary phase influences the power spectrum of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropies and analyze whether it can explain the observed discrepancy of the power spectrum on large scales, i.e. the quadrupole issue in the CMB. While the answer to this question is negative in the specific model analyzed here, we point out a possible resolution of this issue. ; This article is based upon work from COST Action CA15117 "Cosmology and Astrophysics Network for Theoretical Advances and Training Actions (CANTATA)", supported by COST (European Cooperation in Science and Technology).

This paper was written in the framework of the LowInputBreeds project: "Development of integrated livestock breeding and management strategies to improve animal health, product quality and performance in European organic and 'low input' milk, meat and egg production". The LowInputBreeds project unites 21 partners from Europe and further afield and will develop integrated breeding and management strategies to tackle the issue of improved animal health and food quality. It will run until 2014 and is co-funded by the European Union's Seventh Framework Programme for Research and Technological Development.

Selected mental health and social characteristics of 51 homeless persons drawn as a probability sample from missions are compared to those of 1,338 men aged 18-64 years living in households from the NIMH Epidemiologic Catchment Area survey conducted in Eastern Baltimore. Differences between the two groups were small with respect to age, race, education, and military service but the differences in mental health status, utilization patterns, and social dysfunction were large. About one-third of the homeless scored high on the General Health Questionnaire which measures distress. A similar proportion had a current psychiatric disorder as ascertained by the Diagnostic Interview Schedule (DIS), with the homeless exhibiting higher prevalence rates in every DIS/DSM III diagnostic category compared to domiciled men. Homeless persons reported higher rates of hospitalization than household men for both mental (33 per cent vs 5 per cent) and physical (20 per cent vs 10 per cent) problems but a lower proportion received ambulatory care (41 per cent vs 50 per cent). Social dysfunction among the homeless was indicated by fewer social contacts and higher rates of arrests as adults than domiciled men (58 per cent vs 24 per cent), including multiple arrests (38 per cent vs 9 per cent) and felony convictions (16 per cent vs 5 per cent). Implications of these findings are discussed in terms of research and health policy.

Purpose: To examine the effectiveness of 3 lifestyle intervention programs in an active duty military population. Design: Experimental design with stratified random assignment to 1 of 3 intervention groups. Measures were taken at baseline, 3 months and 6 months. Setting: A Military Treatment Facility in the western U.S. Subjects/Intervention: 122 active duty service members were enrolled and randomly assigned to 1 of 3 lifestyle intervention programs: the Diabetes Prevention Program-Group Lifestyle Balance (DPP-GLB), the Better Body Better Life (BBBL) program or the Fitness Improvement Program (FIP). Measures: weight, abdominal circumference, lipid and HbA1c levels, physical activity, and well-being as measured by the RAND SF-36 questionnaire. Analysis: Statistical analyses were performed to assess changes over time. Results: 83 participants completed the study (BBBL N = 23, FIP N = 30, DPP-GLB N = 30). The DPP-GLB participants had statistically significant decreases in weight (-3.1 pounds, p = .01) and abdominal circumference (-0.9 inches; p = .01) over time. HbA1c was also significantly lower in this group at 6 months compared to baseline ( p = .036). There were no statistically significant changes in weight, abdominal circumference, or HbA1c in the FIP or BBBL groups. No significant changes were observed in lipids in any of the groups. Conclusion: Results from this study indicate that the DPP-GLB program may be effective in reducing weight, abdominal circumference, and HbA1c in an active duty U.S. military population.
