It's actually the second highest attendance in 10 years," said Folk Arts Council executive director Ron Gauthier.
Although Gauthier said this year's attendance was a bit shy of 2002's record 476,000 visits, he said it was encouraging to see a boost in the festival's popularity.
He said officials also might bring back the Folklorama "passport," that acts as an all-access pavilion pass and gets stamped at every location.

Recent studies of publication patterns in accounting history portray a myopic and introspective discipline. Analyses reveal the production and dissemination of accounting history knowledge which focus predominantly on Anglo-American settings and the age of modernity. Limited opportunities exist for contributions from scholars working in languages other than English. Many of the practitioners of accounting history are also shown to be substantially disconnected from the wider community of historians. It is argued in the current paper that interdisciplinary history has the potential to enhance theoretical and methodological creativity and greater inclusivity in the accounting history academy. A practical requirement for this venture is the identification of points of connectedness between...

While considerable attention has been paid to country differences in gender-role attitudes associated with women's-especially married women's-employment at the individual and societal levels, the industrialization hypothesis used in the previous studies has, however, yielded inconsistent results (Haller and Hoellinger 1994; Alwin, Braun, and Scott 1992; Baxter and Kane 1995; Crompton and Harris 1997; Hsieh and Burgess 1994; Panayotova and Brayfield 1997; Scott and Duncombe 1992). Furthermore, in order to measure a single concept or attitude, unidimensional scale development and factor analysis have been used to construct gender-role attitudes by assigning interval scores to ordinal response categories. The impact of personal income on gender egalitarianism, however, is unclear, with s...

[Jane Jacobs] stayed at work well into her 80s; her last book, Dark Age Ahead (Random House, 2004) lamented the breakdown of communities and families ("families rigged to fail"), society's emphasis on credentials rather than education, and the mass amnesia associated with dark ages, where even the memory of what was lost is lost. "When Portland, Oregon, bought some [streetcars] recently, it had to order them from the Czech Republic," she writes, "because the U.S. streetcar manufacturing industry, once the largest and most technologically advanced in the world, no longer exists." Indeed, an often-mentioned theme in Dark Age Ahead is the General Motors Streetcar Conspiracy, in which streetcar systems were torn up in 146 jurisdictions throughout North America. Many young people living in t...
