“…Thomsen and his colleagues were also influenced by the fact that Maryland law on the subject was being hotly debated outside the courts, where it seemed on the verge of being resolved in favor of nondiscrimination. 57 By the early 1960s, just what was the Maryland law on the subject of segregation was increasingly open to question. The state legislature had repealed its laws requiring segregated rail, ship, and streetcar travel during the 1950s.…”

“…In fact, Judge Thomsen would cite the vigorous debate taking place in the legislature and the city council as reasons for not taking action in response to Sara Slack's petition to open up Baltimore restaurants to black patrons. 59 The irony is that the messiness and flexibility of Maryland law made the Supreme Court's job more difficult when Bell's case reached that body. The Justices had decided the early sit-in cases by presuming that the trespass conviction was simply a subterfuge for white Southerners who were now on notice that their segregation statutes were unconstitutional.…”

Framed into a robust stratigraphic context, multivariate analyses on the Holocene palaeobiological record (pollen, benthic foraminifers, ostracods) of the Po coastal plain (NE Italy) allowed the investigation of microtidal ecosystems variability and driving parameters along a 35-km-long land-sea transect. Millennial-scale ecosystem shifts are documented by coeval changes in the meiofauna, reflecting variations in organic matter-water depth (shallowmarine environments) and degree of confinement-salinity (back-barrier settings). In-phase shifts of vegetation communities track unsteady water-table levels and river dynamics in freshwater palustrine areas. Five environmental-ecological stages followed one another crossing four tipping points that mark changes in relative sea level (RSL), climate and/or fluvial regime. At the culmination of Mediterranean RSL rise, after the 8200 event, remarkable growth of peatlands took place in the Po estuary, while low accumulation rates typified the shelf. At the transgressive-regressive turnaround (~7000 cal a BP), the estuary turned into a delta plain with tidally influenced interdistributary embayments. River flow regime oscillations after the Climate Optimum (post-5000 cal a BP) favoured isolation of the bays and the development of brackish wetlands surrounded by wooded peatlands. The youngest threshold (~800 cal a BP), which led to the establishment of the modern delta, reflects a major avulsion of the Po River.
