2.3 Chain configuration The structure of repeat units is fixed by the chemical bonds between adjacent atoms. The shape or shapes thus created is known as the configuration, and for chains will be the chain configuration. Like children's plastic building blocks, however, there can be many different configurations for a given set of atoms of a particular type. The different structures which have identical chemical formulae are known as isomers, and such isomers can have quite different properties. Isomer
Ralph Fertig: What Matters to Me and Why
Ralph Fertig, a clinical associate professor at the USC School of Social Work, addresses the topic "What Matters to Me and Why" on Nov. 4, 2009.
Fertig has fought for social justice as a federal administrative judge, civil rights lawyer, social worker and sociologist. "The Washington Post" once dubbed him "the conscience of Washington." Still a progressive voice for a just society, he now champions social change through lectures on social welfare policy at the USC School of Social Work, where h

4.3 Making a plan
Learning how to learn: a process we all engage in throughout our lives, but no single method of learning guarantees success. This unit aims to make the process of learning much more explicit by inviting you to apply various ideas and activities to your own study as a way of increasing your awareness of your own learning. Most learning has to be an active process – and this is particularly true of learning how to learn.

2.3 Using grammatical description in context Malinowski's anthropological work illustrates a more dynamic approach to the study of language which is still influential today, particularly in functional approaches to grammar. Many linguists are exploring ways of grounding their description of language in the cultural, geographical, social and economic conditions stressed by Malinowski. These factors are seen as influencing how language is used in context; that is, how variations in what we are doing, who we are communicating with,
Highlights from the George W. Bush Center Groundbreaking
Former President and Mrs. George W. Bush and other dignitaries broke ground Tuesday on the Bush Presidential Center. More than 3,000 guests filled a massive tent on the site of the George W. Bush Presidential Center to celebrate groundbreaking for the building. Fifteen officials took up shovels to turn dirt, marking the official start of construction, with completion scheduled for 2013.

2.5 Structure-property relationships Given the large number of possible configurations in polymers, what guides to likely properties are available? We have already seen some of the effects on properties of changing tacticity, for example, which can affect crystallinity. Control of copolymer structure, too, can have substantial effects on their thermal properties. Except for third party materials and otherwise stated (see Author(s): 4.5 Copolymerization The alloying of metals to improve their properties is widespread and although many polymers used today are relatively pure (e.g. polystyrene, nylon), an increasing number are mixtures of two or more polymers. As with metals, one reason for doing this is to increase the range of properties. The major practical problem, however, is that homopolymers blend together with difficulty and even where blends are possible, as in some thermoplastics, phase separation can occur readily.

Revisiting the Future of Multi-Ethnic Britain: the Parekh Report 10 years on
The Deans of Harvard University discuss the work happening across all of Harvard's schools, their plans for the current academic year and the future, and the contributions that their institutions make to society.
Although never a "hot" war between the superpowers, the Cold War was waged partly through a series of proxy wars in Third World countries from Guatemala to Korea to Vietnam. Although a great deal of attention has been devoted to a select number of U.S. Interventions in the Third World, there is an urgent need to see the "Third World's War" in perspective, showing how successful the Soviet Union was in pursuing a strategy of fomenting revolution and how consistently successive U.S. administration

The paper discusses research work on typological and generic knowledge in architectural design. Architectural composition occurs predominantly through drawings as a medium. Throughout the process, architects apply knowledge. The paper discusses the question how to accommodate this process in computers bearing in mind the medium of drawings and the application of knowledge. It introduces generic representations as one particular approach and discusses its implications by the concept of intermedia
A decade after the groundbreaking Runnymede Trust 'Future of Multi-Ethnic Britain' report, its chair, Lord Parekh, revisits the issues of race equality and multiculturalism in Britain. Bhikhu Parekh is emeritus fellow of political theory at the University of Hull and a fellow of the British Academy.
