John S. Alessio He was Mr. San Diego and Mr. Tijuana in the middle of this century. And despite a 1971 conviction on income-tax evasion charges, John Alessio is best remembered as a San Diego shoeshine boy whose sharp mind for business and belief in transborder relationships built an empire ranging from horse racing in Mexico to San Diego tuna to Redlands shopping centers. Alessio’s fall from power and grace in the early ’70s paralleled the fall of his closest business partner, friend and fellow “Mr. San Diego,” C. Arnholt Smith. In his later years, Alessio was happy to be known as the “A” in his landmark restaurant, Mr. A’s. Robert Alvarez Sr. Five years ago, Hispanic Business magazine ranked him number six among the 50 richest Hispanics in the United States. Robert Alvarez, who started his Coast Citrus Corporation in 1949 selling produce from the back of a truck, had a net worth of $85 million, the magazine said. As the county’s most successful Hispanic businessman, Alvarez has affected thousands of San Diegans. But his more lasting impact may still be felt from a 1930 event that came to be known as “The Lemon Grove Incident.” In a class-action suit against Lemon Grove’s policy of separate schools for Hispanics, he helped make history. American-born and a model student, 11-year-old Robert took the stand and testified in what became the first successful legal challenge to segregation in U.S. schools. Al Anderson A children’s dentist, lover of sports and animals and fierce loyalist of Pete Wilson, Al Anderson indulged all his passions with energy, enthusiasm and grace. An unrelenting fund-raiser, Anderson helped provide the mother’s milk for Mayor/Senator/Governor Wilson’s ambitions. He served as president of the Zoological Society and led the bond proposition that built the Wild Animal Park. He was a leader in the drive to bring the Chargers to San Diego; he helped win major-league status for the Padres; he led the campaign for San Diego Stadium. And he was a tireless champion of—and benefactor to—developmentally disabled children.

Links Since the heyday of Sherlock Holmes a century ago, one of the most elementary aspects in understanding American popular culture has been the popularity of the mystery story. Until the past decade or so, however, many collectors really didn't have a clue as to the "art" of the mystery—wild, weird and often even wacky, over-the-top art that has helped make the genre so compelling for untold millions of readers. Well over a dozen comprehensive and even scholarly "histories of mystery" appeared from the 1940s through the 1950s but most of these focused almost entirely on the creators and their characters. Books such as Murder for Measure (1941) by Howard Haycraft—billed as "the first book about the detective story as a literary form to be brought out in this country"—were wonderful studies in mystery fiction, but typically did not examine artworks and reproduced very little of it. Fortunately for fans, a multitude of evocative images were produced to accompany mysteries in hardbound books, paperbacks, pulps and comics. And a group of spectacular volumes has emerged in recent years to collect it.

It provides a brief history of dietary guidance in Canada and outlines the processes underlying recent dietary guidance, including Canada's first national Nutrition Recommendations released in 1977, their revision in 1990, and the subsequent development of Canada's Guidelines for Healthy Eating and revisions to Canada's Food Guide. Consideration of the content and process determinants of current dietary guidance in Canada suggests potential directions for the future. THE HISTORY OF DIETARY GUIDANCE IN CANADA Health Canada has been in the business of promoting healthful eating to Canadians since 1942, when the Official Food Rules were released as part of a wartime nutrition program (1). The Food Rules were intended to improve the health of Canadians by promoting better eating habits and focussed on patterns of eating that would provide adequate amounts of essential nutrients. The Official Food Rules underwent revision through the 1940s, '50s and '60s to reflect current science on nutrient requirements. The word "official" was dropped in 1944, and later the name was changed to Canada's Food Guide, acknowledging that more than one dietary pattern can be consistent with good health (2). As science evolved, new evidence emergednot only about the role of nutrition in promoting health, but also about the role of nutrition in preventing chronic disease. In response, dietary guidance began to embrace the prevention of chronic disease.

59. Planned Parenthood Federation Of America Condom - History Notes on the history of the In the 1940s and 50s, they were washed, slathered in petroleum soldiers who fought in World War I. The american Expeditionary Forces http://www.plannedparenthood.org/condoms/history.html

Notes on the History of the Condom by Jon Knowles The oldest condoms were found in the foundations of Dudley Castle near Birmingham, England. They were made of fish and animal intestine and dated back to 1640. They were probably used to prevent transmission of sexually transmitted infections during the war between the forces of Oliver Cromwell and soldiers loyal to King Charles I. Historians disagree about how condoms got their name. Some say a "Dr. Condom" supplied King Charles II of England with animal-tissue sheaths to keep him from fathering illegitimate children and getting diseases from prostitutes. Others claim the word comes from a "Dr. Condon" or a "Colonel Cundum." It may be more likely that the word derives from the Latin condon, meaning "receptacle." In the 18th century, the famous womanizer, Casanova, wore condoms made of linen. The Secretary of the Navy was only one of many military leaders who believed that condom use was immoral and "unChristian." It was a young Assistant Secretary of the Navy, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, who, when his boss was away from the office, ordered the distribution of prophylactic kits to cure infections that condoms could have prevented. One of the challenges that Margaret Sanger, the founder of Planned Parenthood, faced as she fought for women's right to use birth control was the double standard regarding condom use. Doctors were allowed to "prescribe" condoms to protect men from syphilis and gonorrhea when they had pre-marital or extra-marital sexual intercourse. Women, however, could not get condoms to protect themselves from unintended pregnancy.

Willie Morris William Weaks Morris was born in 1934 in Jackson, Mississippi, but when he was six months old his parents moved to Yazoo City, a small town located, as he writes in North Toward Home, "on the edge of the delta, straddling that memorable divide where the hills end and the flat land begins." His family members were all storytellers, and he grew up in the almost conscious tradition of recounting tales and handing them down from one generation to the next. After he graduated from high school in 1952 as valedictorian of his class, he left the familiar Mississippi Delta for the University of Texas in Austin, where he became editor of the student newspaper, the Daily Texan, in his senior year. A member of Phi Beta Kappa when he graduated in 1956, Morris continued his education as a Rhodes Scholar, studying history at Oxford University. When he returned to the United States, he edited the crusading Texas Observer, a liberal weekly newspaper, from 1960 to 1962.
