05 Sep 2017TL;DR: In this article, a study of port labor in colonial Calcutta and British India is presented, focusing on how the modernization process worsened class conflict and highlighted the important part played by labor in the shaping of the port's modernization.
Abstract: In the days of the British Raj Calcutta was a great port city. Thousands of men, women, and children worked there, loading and unloading valuable cargoes that sustained the regional economy, and contributed significantly to world trade. In the second half of the nineteenth century, in response to a shift from sailing ships to steamers, port authorities in Calcutta began work on a massive modernization project.
This book is the first study of port labor in colonial Calcutta and British India. Drawing on primary source material, including government documents and newspaper records, the author demonstrates how the modernization process worsened class conflict and highlights the important part played by labor in the shaping of the port’s modernization. Class Conflict and Modernization in India places this history in a comparative context, highlighting the interconnected nature of port and port labor histories. It examines how the port’s modernization affected the port workforce and the port’s managers, as well as the impact on class formation that emerged as labourers resisted through acts of everyday resistance and organized strikes.
A detailed study of state power, technological change, and class conflict, this book will be of interest to academics of modern Indian history, labour history and the history of science and technology.

TL;DR: Two patients with pain referable to the low back and sacroiliac regions had bone scans with similar findings and rapid defervescence with antibiotics and drainage suggested that osteomyelitis was not involved in these cases.
Abstract: Two patients with pain referable to the low back and sacroiliac regions had bone scans with similar findings. In each, one sacroiliac joint was "warm" (uptake on that side was slightly greater than that in the contralateral area). Ga-67 imaging also demonstrated increased uptake in the same locale. Subsequent CT scanning revealed pelvic abscesses adjacent to the affected joints. Asymmetric uptake of bone imaging agent may have been related to hyperemia and "heating" of the sacroiliac joint. Rapid defervescence with antibiotics and drainage (and no CT evidence of bone involvement) suggested that osteomyelitis was not involved in these cases.

01 Jan 2017TL;DR: In today’s world, mobile phones have become an extension of the authors' body and the possible impact on infection control has yet to be adequately assessed.
Abstract: In today’s world, mobile phones have become an extension of our body. The volume of reported mobile phones has led to controversy between benefit and harm. We live, work, eat, and sleep with our devices and probably give little thought to the risk for potential bacterial contamination they can provide. Similar to the character Tommy’s experience in the song “Pinball Wizard,” we are dealing with a new form of sensory overload and not really understanding the potential infectious threats that mobile devices can carry. The role mobile devices play in our culture is huge, but their possible impact on infection control has yet to be adequately assessed.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors highlight existing and forthcoming databases of regulatory information and summarize the papers included in this volume and discuss their contribution to the literature, and discuss the contribution of these papers.
Abstract: Occupational licensing affects more than one in five workers in the US, but research is often limited by the high cost of obtaining regulatory data. We highlight existing and forthcoming databases of regulatory information. We also summarize the papers included in this volume and discuss their contribution to the literature.
