WHEN I was a small child I had an attack of whooping-cough, for which ailment I received whatever medical treatment was then in vogue. In addition to this, however, I was taken to the gasworks. The fumes of the gas were no more efficacious than the more orthodox remedies, and as my whooping was apparently distressing to listen to, I was next taken to a large brewery and encouraged to hang over ...

A macroscopic model of Columnar-to-Equiaxed Transition (CET) formation is presented. The growth of a columnar zone and an equiaxed zone are treated separately and modeled on a fixed grid. The model uses a columnar Front Tracking (FT) formulation to compute the motion of the columnar front and the solidification of the dendritic columnar mushy zone. The model for the equiaxed zone calculates the...

Bonanno’s (January 2004) article on loss, trauma, and resilience represents another important step toward pointing psychology in a more positive and fruitful direction.
