SAN DIEGO (CNS) - The UC San Diego Library announced Thursday the addition of its first African Americana collection the Turner Collection to its Special Collections and Archives.
Donated by Steve Turner, a UCSD 1982 alumnus and an avid collector, the collection is composed of more than 300 items including rare photographs, pamphlets, photocards, posters and pinback buttons, many from the 19th century and all of which shed new light on the Black experience, particularly in the American West. We are honored to have received this collection, said Erik Mitchell, the Audrey Geisel University Librarian. Each piece offers a window into American history, showing a different perspective on times past how compelling and necessary.
Older adults who want to maintain their mobility should know that all movement, not just moderate-to-vigorous physical activity, counts, said senior author Andrea LaCroix, professor and chief of the Division of Epidemiology at Herbert Wertheim School of Public Health. We found that, among older women, light-intensity physical activity preserves mobility later in life.
Researchers observed 5,735 women age 63 and older living in the United States and enrolled in a study by the Women s Health Initiative. Participants wore a research-grade accelerometer for seven days to obtain accurate measures of their physical activity. The mean time spent in light physical activity was 4.8 hours per day.
