	NationMaster - Encyclopedia: 1775
		When the war began in 1775, the Americans did not have a professional army and lacked officers, sergeants, regiments and a store of arms, tents, muskets and uniforms.
		Lord Dunmore, the Royal Governor of Virginia, issued an emancipation proclamation in November 1775, promising freedom to runaway slaves who fought for the British; Sir Henry Clinton issued a similar edict in New York in 1779.
		Congress had initially invited French-Canadians to join them as the fourteenth colony, but when that failed to happen, an invasion of Canada was authorized in an attempt to drive the British from the primarily francophone colony of Quebec (comprising present-day Quebec and Ontario).

	Is U.S. Science Policy at Risk?
		Physical sciences, math and computer sciences, and engineering—traditionally fields whose research support has come mostly from Washington—have declined as a share of the federal academic budget from 27 percent to 24 percent.
		Advanced degrees in science and engineering are on the rise—the number of master's degrees increased 20 percent from 1987 to 1996, and the number of doctoral degrees in science and engineering, excluding social sciences, increased more than 40 percent between 1987 and 1997—but only because of increased enrollment by foreign students.
		First, science and engineering education is generally more expensive, partly because S&E faculty have relatively high salaries (because universities must compete with the private sector for their services) and partly because technical education requires expensive laboratories and equipment.

	Cancer - Understanding Cancer, page 1
		For example, in 1775, an extraordinarily high incidence of scrotal cancer was described among men who worked as chimney sweeps as boys.
		In the mid-1800s, lung cancer was observed at alarmingly high rates among pitchblende miners in Germany.
		Far from bringing science closer to understanding cancer, each new observation seemed to add to the confusion.

	Latin American media 'needs more local science news' - SciDev.Net
		The 'Meeting on Science Communication' was organised by SciDev.Net and Ecuador's National Secretariat for Science and Technology and National Foundation for Science and Technology, with the support of the Catholic University of Ecuador and the Central University of Ecuador.
		Javier Cruz, a science communicator at the National Autonomous University of Mexico, said three factors are behind the low profile of regional science news in the Latin American media.
		Cruz said the continent’s journalists are not used to writing about science, there is little public demand for debate on science issues through the media, and research institutions do not communicate effectively about the knowledge they produce.

	Government cash U-turn - 29 June 1991 - New Scientist
		Science is to get some extra money this year, thanks to a remarkable turn around by Kenneth Clarke, the minister responsible for science.
		But the reprieve came too late for the Nuclear Structure Facility at Daresbury, which is to close for lack of funds.
		Mark Richmond, chairman of the Science and Engineering Research Council, said the SERC's share of the windfall, £3.2 million, was too little and too late to reverse the closure of the NSF, which costs about £5 million a year to run.
