Stratospheric Variability And Trends In Models Used For The Ipcc Ar4, P. M. De F. Forster, Eugene Cordero
Stratospheric Variability And Trends In Models Used For The Ipcc Ar4, P. M. De F. Forster, Eugene Cordero
Eugene C. Cordero
Atmosphere and ocean general circulation model (AOGCM) experiments for the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change Fourth Assessment Report (AR4) are analyzed to better understand model variability and assess the importance of various forcing mechanisms on stratospheric trends during the 20th century. While models represent the climatology of the stratosphere reasonably well in comparison with NCEP reanalysis, there are biases and large variability among models. In general, AOGCMs are cooler than NCEP throughout the stratosphere, with the largest differences in the tropics. Around half the AOGCMs have a top level beneath ~2 hPa and show a significant cold bias in their …

[1] Simulations of the stratosphere from thirteen coupled chemistry-climate models (CCMs) are evaluated to provide guidance for the interpretation of ozone predictions made by the same CCMs. The focus of the evaluation is on how well the fields and processes that are important for determining the ozone distribution are represented in the simulations of the recent past. The core period of the evaluation is from 1980 to 1999 but long-term trends are compared for an extended period (1960–2004). Comparisons of polar high-latitude temperatures show that most CCMs have only small biases in the Northern Hemisphere in winter and spring, but …
The Sound Of The Suburbs: A Case Study Of Three Garage Bands In San Jose, California During The 1960s, Paul Kauppila
The Sound Of The Suburbs: A Case Study Of Three Garage Bands In San Jose, California During The 1960s, Paul Kauppila
Paul Kauppila
The Chocolate Watchband, the Count Five, and the Syndicate of Sound were three garage bands from San Jose, California. During the 1960s, before the high‐tech economy transformed the Santa Clara Valley into Silicon Valley, San Jose was a culturally sleepy suburb. This paper will examine these three groups in the context of 1960s culture and society and will compare and contrast their image and musical output with that of the better‐known “hippie” music scene originating an hour north in San Francisco.

An Unpublished Letter Of Lord Byron To Lady Caroline Lamb, Paul Douglass
An Unpublished Letter Of Lord Byron To Lady Caroline Lamb, Paul Douglass
Paul Douglass
Lord Byron took a highly ambivalent attitude toward female authorship, and yet his poetry, letters, and journals exhibit many proofs of the power of women's language and perceptions. He responded to, borrowed from, and adapted parts of the works of Maria Edgeworth, Harriet Lee, Madame de Stael, Mary Shelley, Elizabeth lnchbald, Hannah Cowley, Joanna Baillie, Lady Caroline Lamb, Mary Robmson, and Charlotte Dacre. The influence of women writers on his career may also be seen in the development of the female (and male) characters in his narrative poetry and drama. This essay focuses on the influence upon Byron of Lee, …

From Object To Installation In Bruno Taut’S Exhibit Pavilions, Kai K. Gutschow
Kai K. Gutschow
This paper, part of a JAE special issue on "Installations by Architects," investigates the artistic and philosophical origins of Bruno Taut’s Glashaus (1914) exhibit pavilion in order to reinterpret the famous building as an experimental, free-standing “installation” that rose above being merely a pragmatic exhibition space. In close collaboration with the critic Adolf Behne and the Expressionist poet Paul Scheerbart, Taut designed a three dimensional manifesto for a utopian “glass architecture” that sought to express “a higher passion to build.” Both the collaborative construction process he envisioned and the radical new experiences inside were intended as vehicles to greater cultural, …

Dylemat Wartości Przedsiębiorstwa - Metoda Kcetm, Anna Ujwary-Gil
Anna Ujwary-Gil
Artykuł prezentuje metodę KCE™ w kontekście wyceny wartości przedsiębiorstwa. Wzrastająca dysproporcja między księgową i rynkową wartością dużej liczby przedsiębiorstw wymusza bardziej precyzyjne wytłumaczenie tego zjawiska, kierując uwagę na niematerialne zasoby przedsiębiorstwa wpływające na jego wartość rynkową. Jakkolwiek problemem nie jest tylko wycena wartości zasobów niematerialnych w ujęciu finansowym, ale również metodologiczny konflikt miedzy tradycyjnym księgowym pomiarem a współczesnymi rynkami. Prezentowana metoda KCE™ częściowo wyjaśnia źródło tego konfliktu. Zastosowano ją do analizy dwóch przedsiębiorstw: Telekomunikacja Polska S.A. oraz Netia S.A., a uzyskane wyniki pozwalają zrozumieć, dlaczego i w jakim stopniu przedsiębiorstwa są niedoszacowane, bądź przeszacowane.

From Memphis To Kingston: An Investigation Into The Origin Of Jamaican Ska, Paul Kauppila
From Memphis To Kingston: An Investigation Into The Origin Of Jamaican Ska, Paul Kauppila
Paul Kauppila
The distinguishing characteristic of most Jamaican popular music recordings, including reggae and its predecessor, ska, is an emphasis on the offbeat or afterbeat instead of on the downbeat, as found in most US pop music. A study is presented that critically examines proposed theories to explain this tendency through historical and musicological analysis and concludes that the prevalence of the downbeat is a mixture of Jamaican folk and African-American pop music influences in its earliest incarnation but was later deliberately emphasized in an attempt to create a unique new musical style.

Reverend Lawrence E. Frizzell, S.T.L., S.S.L., D.Phil.
Dr. Kenneth Schmitz's review of philosophical insights into language and writing is necessarily focused on the world of Greece and Rome. It would be valuable to have scholars immersed in the Hebrew language and traditional Jewish culture to reflect upon the same issues. At a conference on the trivium and quadrivium in Medieval Europe, Dean Arthur Hyman of Yeshiva University was asked to comment. His response was brief: "This was not the Jewish approach."
Recalling the genius and limitations of a language to convey insights into the meaning of life and its mysteries, we acknowledge the role of translation in …

Michael T. French
This study examines the validity, utility, and costs of using a brief telephone-administered instrument, the Brief Health Services Questionnaire (BHSQ), for self-reported health care provider contacts relative to collection and abstraction of complete medical records. The study sample was 441 community-dwelling at-risk drinkers who participated in an 18-month longitudinal study. Agreement between BHSQ self-reports and abstracted provider contacts was good to very good for general medical (79% agreement, kappa = .50) and specialty mental health contacts (93% agreement, kappa = .62), but low for Bother^ miscellaneous health contacts (61% agreement, kappa = .04). Average cost to collect and abstract complete …

“Does America Spend Enough On Addiction Treatment?: Results From Public Opinion Surveys, Michael T. French, Amie L. Nielsen, Jenny F. Homer
Michael T. French
Addiction treatment is often misunderstood and underappreciated in the United States. Although a large body of literature clearly demonstrates the clinical and economic benefits of addiction treatment for many clients and in most settings, the general public has a somewhat ambivalent attitude toward treatment expansion and taxpayer financing. A potential reason for this disconnect between economic evidence and public opinion is a weak identification with the need for, or the success of, addiction treatment for those individuals without a substance abuse problem themselves or in members of their family. Alternatively, addiction treatment stakeholders may be delivering an ineffective or misdirected …

Price Elasticity Of Demand For Malt Liquor Beer: Findings From A Pilot Study, Michael T. French, Didra Browntaylor, Ricky N. Bluthenthal
Price Elasticity Of Demand For Malt Liquor Beer: Findings From A Pilot Study, Michael T. French, Didra Browntaylor, Ricky N. Bluthenthal
Michael T. French
Our objective is to estimate the relative price elasticity of demand for malt liquor beer (MLB), regular beer, hard liquor, and a combined group of all other alcoholic beverages. Three hundred and twenty-nine alcohol consumers (mostly male) in South-Central Los Angeles answered a series of questions pertaining to expected consumption responses to hypothetical price increases. We found that based on a 10% price increase, the mean price elasticity of demand (% change in quantity demanded / % change in price) was -0.79 for MLB drinkers, -1.14 for regular beer drinkers, -1.11 for hard liquor drinkers, and -1.69 for the combined …

Rättens Ordning I Den Tid Som Återstår, Matilda Arvidsson
Rättens Ordning I Den Tid Som Återstår, Matilda Arvidsson
Dr Matilda Arvidsson
The article investigates the fundamental concept of 'time' within the framework of the laws of war, using the War on Terrorism as a starting point and the 2003 invasion and subsequent occupation of Iraq as an example. The article argues for an eschatological understanding of time during the War on Terrorism, framing a state of exception, and ultimately keeping law on hold in an enduring 'now' while messianic hopes for redemption are directed towards a new future to come after war.
