Renaissance with dog-eared edges
Article Abstract:
Humanity students are finding the teaching materials and private research collections on the Internet to be unreliable and incomplete, and are having to rely on the CD-ROM as a more accurate source of information. The Internet is a very wide-reaching source of information, covering an enormous range of topics, and because of this there is a great need to create a common strategy and standards. Information can at least be collated and compared using the Internet, although without sufficient editing, the text has no added value.

Role of short-range forces in particle detachment during filter backwashing
Article Abstract:
Comments on Palanivel Raveendran and Appiah Amirtharajah's paper on the role of short-range forces in particle detachment during filter backwashing are presented. Raveendran and Amirtharajah used the extended Derjaguin, Landau, Verwey, and Overbeek (DLVO) theory to model short-range forces. However, the DLVO approach is not suitable in determining system parameters. An alternative method by van Oss et al. via an extended DLVO theory through a Lewis-acid base approach is proposed.

The stories printed in the then-called New York Times Sunday Supplement reflected a time when Joe Louis' stolid demeanor was as newsworthy as an account of a rally featuring Hitler. Other news included why Southampton, NY was fashionable, and the management styles of Sen FD Roosevelt and Henry Ford.
