In Sissy Boy, an excerpt from Toni Newman's memoir I Rise: The Transformation of Toni Newman, recounts her journey from her hometown of Jacksonville, North Carolina, where from an early age she knew she was "a different bird born in the wrong body." The excerpt follows her through childhood as a "sissy boy," her identification with female students in school, travails in high school and college, her first time loving a man, her decision to study sociology instead of medicine, her entry into the world of drag clubs, her secret relationship with a male friend of her football-player roommate, to finally her interactions with the transsexual streetwalkers that ultimately inspired her own transformation.

David Bruce was born on May 29, 1855, in Melbourne, bis father having gone to Australia during the gold rush to instal a crushing mill in a goldfield near Sandhurst, some 100 miles distant from Melbourne. He was an only son, and when he was five years of age his parents returned home and settled in Stirling. David was subsequently sent to the Stirling High School, where he remained until he was fourteen years old. At this early age he left school and entered the warehouse of Messrs. J. & N. Phillips & Co., in Manchester, where he remained some three years. It is interesting to recall that during these early years, when he had to go out into the world and make his way, and possessing a fine physique and great muscular strength, his boyish ambition should have been to become an athlete, and possibly a professional boxer and football player.

The subject of the study was "The application of the direct method with the Kwartet card to improve students' ability to express themselves verbally (an experimental study in the Islamic High School Ruhul Falah Samahani)." One of the reasons that encouraged researchers to write this research was problem faced by the teacher because students could not write short sentences that the teacher taught about the subject. They cannot say the sentence he made from the desired material. This arises when researchers choose cards and examples and exercises from easy anecdotal texts, or good phrases that go beyond students' methods and enhance their culture and broaden their circle of knowledge. Researchers believe that students do not understand these subjects because they do not use education methods and education methods that are appropriate for teachers when they teach Arabic, and this causes a lack of desire from them for these subjects. The purpose of writing this thesis is to find out how to improve students' ability to learn Arabic after applying the method directly to the Kwartet card. To obtain data, researchers conducted an experimental study: Quazi Design - Experimental was the first Time-Series Design. In collecting data, researchers make direct observations and tests. As for the community in this study, all students in the Islamic High School Ruhul Falah Samahani 54 students. As for the sample that researchers took, it would be 15 female students. We know from the results of this study that the application of the direct method with a Kwartet card is effective for improving students' ability to express verbally, and this is identical to direct observation with a P = 92.8% which indicates that it falls between the 81-100% limit in very good meaning. The evidence for this is also that the results ("t" test) are greater than the results ("t" tables) and therefore the null hypothesis is valued and alternative hypotheses can be accepted, namely: that the application of the direct method with the Cortette card is effective for improving students' abilities to express in verbal expressions in Arabic lessons at Islamic High School Ruhul Falah Samahani.

Raymond Ing was a pioneer in establishing the subject of pharmacological chemistry, or as he preferred to call it chemical pharmacology, in Great Britain. Harry Raymond Ing was born at Alford, Lincolnshire, on 31 July 1899. His father and mother were both of Herefordshire stock. His father was orphaned at an early age and became a solicitor’s clerk, which he remained all his life. Raymond remembers him as an easy-going friendly person without ambition. His mother, in spite of much ill health, was an intensely active and ambitious person who dominated her husband and three sons and in spite of her husband’s limited situation always encouraged her children to think that they could make their mark in the world. Ing married in 1941 Catherine Mills Francis, an English scholar who subsequently became a university lecturer in English at Oxford. He and his wife had in common a profound interest in the meaning of words and structure of language. Ing’s education and career were closely bound up with Oxford. At 12 years old he won a scholarship to Oxford High School, a small grammar school which had as its main objective the training of boys for admission to Oxford University. The main subjects taught were Latin, English grammar and mathematics; Ing was especially grateful for the thorough training he received in Latin. He also owed a great deal to his science master who first aroused his interest in natural science and taught him to enjoy experimental work. During the last year at school a Fellow of New College, A. F. Walden, took three of the boys and gave them, at no charge, regular tutorials in physical chemistry. Walden later became Ing’s tutor at New College. Ing had tremendous admiration for Walden, recalling how he went away from his tutorials so excited about chemistry that frequently he did not get to bed until long after midnight.

Identity Exploration

This study examined how social opportunity structure influences identity exploration and commitment of Albanian high school students. A total of 258 students completed a questionnaire that gauged their identity exploration and commitment in three domains: education, occupation, and family. ANOVA results indicated that, overall, students scored highest in exploration in the domain of education and in commitment in the domain of family. Students' exploration and commitment were linked to gender. Albanian female students scored higher than male students in exploration and commitment regarding education and family. Perceived work opportunities in Albania or abroad also significantly moderated participants' exploration in the domain of education and were associated with commitment in education and occupation. As one of the first studies to explore Albanian youth's identity development in relation to social opportunity structure, findings are discussed in light of furthering the field of Albanian adolescent and youth development.

Background. Nearly all of the research on sex differences in mass media utilization has been based on samples from the United States and a few other Western countries. Aim. The present study examines sex differences in mass media utilization in four Asian countries (Japan, Malaysia, South Korea, and Singapore). Methods. College students self-reported the frequency with which they accessed the following five mass media outlets: television dramas, televised news and documentaries, music, newspapers and magazines, and the Internet. Results. Two significant sex differences were found when participants from the four countries were considered as a whole: Women watched television dramas more than did men; and in Japan, female students listened to music more than did their male counterparts. Limitations. A wider array of mass media outlets could have been explored. Conclusions. Findings were largely consistent with results from studies conducted elsewhere in the world, particularly regarding sex differences in television drama viewing. A neurohormonal evolutionary explanation is offered for the basic findings.

INTRODUCTION: India being the second highly populated nation in the world. HIV/AIDS has acquired pandemic proportion in the world. Estimate by WHO for current infection rate in Asia. India has the third largest HIV epidemic in the world. HIV prevalence in the age group 15-49 yrs was an estimate of 0.2%. India has been classified as an intermediate in the Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) endemic (HBsAg carriage 2-7%) zone with the second largest global pool of chronic HBV infections. Safety assessment of the blood supply, the quality of screening measures and the risk of transfusion transmitted infectious diseases (TTIs) in any country can be estimated by scrutinizing the files of blood donors. After the introduction of the blood banks and improved storage facilities, it became more extensively used. Blood is one of the major sources of TTIs like hepatitis B, hepatitis C, HIV, syphilis, and many other blood borne diseases. Disclosure of these threats brought a dramatic change in attitude of physicians and patients about blood transfusion. The objective of this study is to determine the seroprevalence of transfusion transmitted infections amidst voluntary blood donors at a rural tertiary healthcare teaching hospital in Chhattisgarh. MATERIAL AND METHODS: This retrospective study was carried out in Chandulal Chandrakar Memorial Medical College, Kachandur, Durg. Blood donors were volunteers, or and commercial donors who donated the blood and paid by patients, their families, or friends to replace blood used or expected to be used for patients from the blood bank of the hospital. After proper donation of blood routine screening of blood was carried out according to standard protocol. Laboratory diagnosis of HIV 1 and HIV 2 was carried out by ELISA test. Hepatitis B surface antigen was screened by using ELISA. RESULTS: A total of 1915 consecutive blood donors’ sera were screened at Chandulal Chandrakar Memorial Medical College, blood bank during study period. Of these 1914 were male and 1 female. The mean age of patients was found to be 29.34 years with standard deviation (SD) of 11.65 Years. Among all blood donors in present study, 759(39.63%) were first time donors and 1156(60.37%) were repeated donors. 1 patient was HIV positive in first donation group while 3 (75%) were positive in repeat donation group. 7 (38.9%) were HBsAg positive in in first donation group while 11(61.1%) were positive in repeat donation group. Two patients in first donation group had dual infection of HIV and HBsAg. CONCLUSION: Seropositivity was high in repeated donors as compared to first time donors. The incidence of HIV is observed to be 0.2% and that of HBsAg is 0.94%. Strict selection of blood donors should be done to avoid transfusion-transmissible infections during the window period.
