Relational poetry is a form of poetry inspired by social constructionism. A freestanding poem is responded to via an interweaving of a second poem within the lines of the first. The result is a new poem that is different than either one alone.

Looking back at the more than 20 years that have gone by since the 1982 special issue of Social Science History, it is interesting to observe how important the study of anthropometric data has been in contributing to economic history and related disciplines.While there had been numerous earlier comments by contemporary observers as well as by scholars about heights and their implications as seen in JamesTanner's marvelous study, A History of the Study of Human Growth (1981), the systematic work that was reflected in the 1982 volume was then only about six or seven years old in the United States. It represented the early output of a study directed by Robert Fogel, primarily through the Development of the American Economy (DAE) project of the National Bureau of Economic Research.There had been a few previous publications including my own piece in Local Population Studies (Engerman 1976). My first use of the height-by-age data was in response to a dinnerparty conversation in 1974 with two ofmy colleagues in the Rochester history department:Herbert Gutman and Christopher Lasch.

AbstractThe Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure (SPCC) program regulates oil storage vessels at federal and industrial installations
throughout the United States. After proposing revisions in 1991, 1993, and 1997, the EPA finally promulgated, on July 17, 2002, new regulations for the
SPCC program. As written, the new regulations may impose substantial new expense and implementation requirements upon installations. This article
provides a detailed review of the primary requirements of the SPCC program and identifies which issues federal installations may need to address as they
work to meet the August 17, 2004, deadline to review their plan and complete necessary amendments, and the February 18, 2005, deadline to implement those
amendments. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
