This project investigated temperature and wind speed correlation using information entropy. The hourly temperature and wind speed were retrieved over two weeks for two different regions of the United States, Boston, Massachusetts and Lincoln, Nebraska. Differential entropy was used to calculate mutual information between the hourly change in each variable. Findings revealed that mutual information shared between the two variables was greater in Lincoln than in Boston, indicating change in temperature and wind speed had a stronger correlation in Lincoln than in Boston.

The term megalopolis, derived from the Greek language, has been used for over 2,400 years to signify ‘great city’ or ‘giant city.’ It was first applied as a placename in Ancient Greece, but its primary application on the global scene began in the late 1950s when the French geographer Jean Gottmann wrote a major book on the urbanized northeast of the United States, the corridor from Boston to New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Washington D.C., conceiving the region as an integrated whole called Megalopolis. At that time this region was perhaps the most populous, and certainly the most prosperous, giant conurbation in the world—the pivotal center of the post-World War II global system. Subsequently the term megalopolis was built into Constantinos Doxiadis’ typology of past, present, and future human settlements, acquiring a global significance and many potential applications in other world regions. With over 60 years of hindsight, this paper reviews Gottmann’s Megalopolis as a regional monograph. It also discusses the collaboration between Gottmann and Doxiadis, and Gottmann’s transition from describing a specific geographical region to conceptualizing major polynuclear urban agglomerations with 25 to 100 million inhabitants in different parts of the world.

While much literature on peacekeeping seeks to determine the effect of United Nations (UN) intervention on post-conflict peace processes, most peacekeeping operations (PKOs) are deployed to active conflicts. The limited research on peacekeeping in active civil conflicts suggests that robust PKOs reduce hostilities. Yet, if PKOs serve to extend conflict duration, even lowered hostilities can yield greater destruction over time. We thus explore the effect of peacekeeping on conflict duration. We argue that PKOs with larger troop deployments are better able to increase the cost of combat, improve information sharing between belligerents, and provide security guarantees, thus reducing the time to negotiated resolutions. Using fine-grained data on monthly peacekeeping personnel commitments and observations of ongoing conflict between combatants, we examine how variations in mission deployments affect the success of UN peacekeeping in ending civil conflicts. As expected, our findings indicate that larger troop deployments shorten war duration to negotiated resolution.

Although Gaelic sports have been played in an organised fashion for over a century in the United States, academic research on the development and role of these sports among the Irish diaspora has been extremely limited. This is hardly surprising, given the more general disregard of the significance of sport in the burgeoning literature examining the Irish experience in America. In its most general aspect, this study seeks to redress this neglect. Drawing predominantly on archival material from the John J. Burns Library at Boston College and from Boston Public Library, the article charts and explores the processes involved in the transfer of Gaelic sports from Ireland to one of the most significant focal points of Irish immigration, Boston. This analysis not only identifies and examines the key agencies and individuals responsible for the early development of Irish sports in Boston, but also seeks to explore the role they played in the promotion and preservation of a distinctively Irish ethnic identity. In particular, the article assesses the extent to which Gaelic games have functioned as an arena in which Irish nationalism was fostered in the greater Boston area during the 1880s. Before turning to these central concerns, it is important to understand the social milieu in which these games developed. Thus the article begins with a brief context-setting discussion that charts Irish emigration to Boston and offers some insights into the socio-economic and political environment encountered by the Irish on completion of their journey.

Shattered Faith is the story of Sheila Rauch Kennedy's marriage and divorce from Congressman Joe Kennedy, a member of one of the best known families in the United States of America. Married in 1979 in a Catholic Church, Mr Kennedy was a Catholic while Mrs Kennedy remained an Episcopalian. Twin sons were born in 1980 and baptised as Catholics, with godparents from both Christian churches. The marriage began to unravel when Mr Kennedy was elected to Congress. Separation in 1989 was followed by divorce because of ‘irreconcilable differences’. In 1993, Mrs Kennedy received notification from the Metropolitan Tribunal of the Archdiocese of Boston, informing her of the petition lodged by her former husband to have the marriage declared null on the grounds of lack of due discretion of judgement (though whose lack of due discretion is not made clear). Shocked, and while willing to acknowledge that the marriage had failed (evidenced in a divorce), she could not accept that it had never existed as a sacrament.

Manifesting Destiny is a work in progress by photographer Tony Gleaton. It is a historical examination of African-descended people in the greater Trans-Mississippi West, and an attempt to counter the notion that Africans in North America, both enslaved and free, owe their historical beginnings and foothold on this continent solely to the settlements along the eastern seaboard of the United States. In this article, Gleaton chronicles the interactions, failures, accomplishments, and misdeeds of people who were part of the African diaspora in California. Through photographs and accompanying text he identifies the locations of particular events and explains what transpired there.

Since its inception in 1948, Israel has sought to transform the physical and demographic landscape of Jerusalem to correspond with the Zionist vision of a united and fundamentally Jewish Jerusalem under Israeli sovereignty. While much of this has been accomplished through the violent expulsion of Arab residents during the wars of 1948 and 1967, the Judaization of Jerusalem has relied equally on measures taken during times of ‘peace’: the strategic extension of Jerusalem's municipal boundaries, bureaucratic and legal restrictions on Palestinian land use, disenfranchisement of Jerusalem residents, the expansion of settlements in ‘Greater Jerusalem’, and the construction of the separation wall.

In this article, I describe the partial forward integration of turn-of-the-twentieth-century Boston breweries. I argue that both brewers and saloonkeepers used the fluid market in capital lending as a lever of power. An analysis of the minutes of three breweries and their loan records, covering more than ten years, reveals that saloonkeepers were often delinquent in repaying their annual loans and brewery owners only infrequently threatened to call the loans. Using the structure-conduct-performance paradigm, I suggest that the particular conditions in Boston (a limited number of saloon licenses and a geographical position that precluded long-distance shipping of beer) gave the saloonkeepers much greater leverage in the so-called “tied system.” Brewers used vertical restraints but, because of obligations to British owners, did not fully forward integrate by buying saloon property, as brewers did in the United Kingdom.

When Dwight L. Moody left his native town of Northfield, Massachusetts, for Boston in 1854, he was one among hundreds of young men flocking to urban centers in hopes of achieving greater prosperity and “success” in mercantile careers than their families had attained through agricultural pursuits or village commerce. This trend was part of a larger pattern of urban growth that began in the early nineteenth century, fueled by both foreign immigration and the expansion of industrial capitalism. In the decades prior to the Civil War, Boston's population expanded exponentially, reaching nearly 140,000 at the time of the 1850 census, a six-fold increase since 1800. Of this number, nearly one-half were of “foreign” birth or parentage, and an additional 25,000 were “Americans” who had migrated to Boston from rural New England and other areas of the United States. Only around 50,000—or 35 percent of the total population—had been born and raised in Boston. This rapid influx of newcomers to the city provoked growing concern among native Bostonians, as the presence of rural youths, Irish Catholics, and other “outsiders” began to challenge and transform traditional patterns of social, economic, political, and religious life.

Abstract This chapter offers a historical overview of chaplains in greater Boston, particularly since 1965. It is based on analysis of the Boston Globe every ten years from 1915 to 2015, as well as historical materials found in religious and institutional archives in the city. People who identify as Christian, specifically Catholic, and those without religious affiliations are the largest groups in Boston today. Those calling themselves chaplains in the city have historically been white Catholics, Episcopalians, and clergy in what is today the United Church of Christ. Over time, more have been ordained than laypeople, with slow racial, religious, and gender diversification since 1980. In addition to slow diversification, this chapter shows the broad range of people—from full-time religious professionals to those with little training—who have used the term chaplain to describe their work. It also shows continuing ties between local congregational clergy—some of whom have simultaneously been chaplains with police and fire departments—and those for whom chaplaincy is a full-time job. By the end of the chapter, readers have a clear sense of how those calling themselves chaplains and the work of chaplains has changed over time in Boston and what that suggests about related changes nationally.

The prologue walks the reader through the experience of a merchant who visits the office of a Boston marine insurance company in the year 1800 to purchase an insurance policy. The prologue discusses the appearance and location of the office, the terms of the policy, and how the insurance rate is decided upon. It continues with a discussion of the fate of the merchant's voyage, along with the fate of a voyage launched by a fellow merchant with a greater appetite for risk. The prologue concludes with a discussion of how losses were proved, and how indemnifications were calculated and paid out.

Resumo:

United Nations’ Agenda 2030 highlights the need to “make cities and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable” (SDG 11) and reduce inequalities (SDG 10) for the good health and well-being (SDG 3) of the citizens. Although most Italian museums have been forced to comply with the rules for accessibility in public spaces since 1971 following Law 30/3/1971 n. 118 and, more recently, Legislative Decree 81/2008, in this context, Universal Design can contribute to the achievement of these goals by improving accessibility to spaces, services, and the community’s well-being on the one hand, along with providing a deeper comprehension and awareness of the informational processes on the other hand. In this regard, museum organizations play a critical role in enhancing the quality of life and society’s education by preserving and distributing cultural heritage over time. Despite the large number of studies focused on museum organizations, there is little research that takes into account Universal Design and its macro-and firm-level economic benefits on museum institutions (not-for-profit, public, and private). Considering this research gap, this study’s aim is twofold: 1) to explore how some Italian museums have actually improved their facilities and services according to Universal Design principles and 2) to assess the economic museum accessibility. A qualitative methodology was applied using a questionnaire delivered to eight Italian museum, and collected data was compared. The findings underline how museums’ investments in Universal Design may produce relevant economic benefits, both on the macroeconomic and firm levels, providing guidelines for public policies concerning welfare, transport, environment, education, and well-being. Universal Design principles can lead museums to an increasing convergence toward Sustainable Development Goals, improving their overall economic performance as well as strengthening their role in a more aware and participative society. This study has several relevant implications in terms of both policy and management. Policymakers should promote Universal Design investments in museums in order to ensure accessibility to a greater number of visitors, and cultural institutions should consider accessibility as a specific key management dimension to be monitored and improved.
