Innovative Financing Options For Kentucky’S Transportation Infrastructure, Merl M. Hackbart Apr 2001

Innovative Financing Options For Kentucky’S Transportation Infrastructure, Merl M. Hackbart

Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report

A strong linkage exists between economic growth and the availability of an adequate and efficient transportation system. Due to its location, geography and economy, this linkage — particularly in regard to highway transportation — is critical to continued economic progress in the Commonwealth of Kentucky. However, Kentucky’s ability to provide the infrastructure investments needed to be competitive in the new “global economy” is constrained by the structure of its funding mechanism, the Road Fund. During the last two decades, Road Fund revenue growth has dramatically lagged the growth of motor vehicle travel. As a consequence, Kentucky faces highway investment needs …

Aluminium Toxicokinetics: An Updated Minireview, Robert A. Yokel, Patrick J. Mcnamara Apr 2001

Aluminium Toxicokinetics: An Updated Minireview, Robert A. Yokel, Patrick J. Mcnamara

Pharmaceutical Sciences Faculty Publications

This MiniReview updates and expands the MiniReview of aluminium toxicokinetics by Wilhelm et al. published by this journal in 1990. The use of 26Al, analyzed by accelerator mass spectrometry, now enables determination of Al toxicokinetics under physiological conditions. There is concern about aluminium in drinking water. The common sources of aluminium for man are reviewed. Oral Al bioavailability from water appears to be about 0.3%. Food is the primary common source. Al bioavailability from food has not been adequately determined. Industrial and medicinal exposure, and perhaps antiperspirant use, can significantly increase absorbed aluminium. Inhalation bioavailability of airborne soluble Al …

Safety Impacts Of Rural Road Construction, Kenneth R. Agent, Jerry G. Pigman Feb 2001

Safety Impacts Of Rural Road Construction, Kenneth R. Agent, Jerry G. Pigman

Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report

Crash data in Kentucky show that the fatal crash rate on two-lane rural roads is substantially higher than on any other type of road. Improvements have been proposed at some locations on this type of road which involve either upgrading the existing two-lane road or adding lanes resulting in a four-lane road. As part of the public information process, highway officials have been asked to document the previous results of this type of construction. The objectives of this study were to: 1) identify sections of two-lane rural roadways where either the two-lane road had been realigned and reconstructed or additional …

Effect Of Seed Pellet Modification On Spiral Root Formation Of Tobacco Seedlings, L. V. Caruso, Robert C. Pearce, B. Gilkinson, Lowell P. Bush Jan 2001

Effect Of Seed Pellet Modification On Spiral Root Formation Of Tobacco Seedlings, L. V. Caruso, Robert C. Pearce, B. Gilkinson, Lowell P. Bush

Agronomy Notes

Tobacco seeds are often pelleted to facilitate precision seeding into float trays. Pelleting consists of the application of solid particles, such as clay, to seeds with a binder in a coating pan or tumbling drum to form spherically shaped dispersal units. One of the several advantages of pelleting is to provide seeds with a vastly enlarged bulk size to ensure proper placement of the seed at the surface of the growing medium.

Introduction: From Sheet Music To Mp3 Files—A Brief Perspective On Napster, Harold R. Weinberg Jan 2001

Introduction: From Sheet Music To Mp3 Files—A Brief Perspective On Napster, Harold R. Weinberg

Law Faculty Scholarly Articles

The Napster case is the current cause celebre of the digital age. The story has color. It involves music-sharing technology invented by an eighteen-year-old college dropout whose high school classmates nicknamed him "The Napster" on account of his perpetually kinky hair. The story has drama. Depending on your perspective, it pits rapacious big music companies against poor and hardworking students who just want to enjoy some tunes; or it pits creative and industrious music companies seeking a fair return on their invested effort, time, and money against greedy and irreverent music thieves. And the case has importance. Music maybe intellectual …

Wrist And Hand Injuries In The Athlete, Timothy L. Uhl, Philip Blazar, Greg Pitts, Kelly Ramsdell Jan 2001

Wrist And Hand Injuries In The Athlete, Timothy L. Uhl, Philip Blazar, Greg Pitts, Kelly Ramsdell

Physical Therapy Faculty Publications

Athletes subject themselves to considerable disability. No matter the sport, the hand and upper extremity are among the most commonly injured sites. Frequently, the most debilitating complications of these conditions are the result of misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis. Unfortunately, many patients with these delayed and misdiagnosis injuries need to be treated with surgical procedures. To compound the dilemma in treating hand and wrist injuries in this population, one needs to appreciate the athletic personality and the mentality that wishes to dismiss hand injuries as minor. It is essential to educate athletes by clearly communicating the risks and complications inherent to …

Muestra De La Poesía Por La Red Y De La Actitud Que Habitualmente Comporta, Alejandro Palma

University of Kentucky Doctoral Dissertations

Although there have been critical warnings about the imminent disappearance of poetry from our society, an analysis of this literary genre on the Internet reveals many innovative practices. Verse on the World Wide Web thus requires new critical approaches, such as communication theory and cultural studies. This dissertation focuses on electronic publications or webzines devoted to poetry in Spanish, which have created virtual communities centered around this genre. Chapter One of this dissertation summarizes the history of poetry and its different means of dissemination: from the religious prophet in primitive societies to the electronic technologies of communication. Special emphasis is …

Characterization Of Epitheliogenesis Imperfecta In Equus Caballus, Louis D. Lieto Jan 2001

Characterization Of Epitheliogenesis Imperfecta In Equus Caballus, Louis D. Lieto

University of Kentucky Doctoral Dissertations

Epitheliogenesis Imperfecta (EI) is a mechanobullous disease that occurs in newborn American Saddlebred and Belgian Draft foals. Necropsy evaluations of two American Saddlebred foals revealed broad skin lesions, dental abnormalities and oral mucosa lesions. Construction of a partial pedigree showing occurrences of EI in American Saddlebred horses was consistent with a recessive pattern of inheritance. An allelic frequency of 0.04 was estimated for the EI gene. The pathological signs of EI were similar to a disease in humans known as Herlitz Junctional Epidermolysis Bullosa (HJEB). HJEB is caused by a defect in one of the three subunits of the laminin …

Implementation Costs Of Kentucky's Erosion Control Best Management Practices For Skid Trails, Bennett Scott Shouse Jan 2001

Implementation Costs Of Kentucky's Erosion Control Best Management Practices For Skid Trails, Bennett Scott Shouse

University of Kentucky Master's Theses

This paper describes a study designed to determine average labor and machine times required to implement erosion control and revegetation best management practices (BMPs) for skid trails in Kentucky. Labor and machine activities were recorded for 14,400 feet of skid trail on 10 nonindustrial private logging sites. Water bar construction and reshaping activities such as filling ruts and berm removal were filmed continuously with a video camera and then analyzed using time-motion study techniques. Labor activities for revegetation such as seeding and application of fertilizer were also timed. The average total machine time for retirement activities per 1000 feet was …

Cyberspace Invades The First Amendment: Where Do We Go From Here?, Dollie Deaton

University of Kentucky Master's Theses

Long before our nation was created, European Countries acknowledged the importance of freespeech. Despite this, Great Britain later denied this right to the New England Colonies. Over thelast two centuries many battles have been fought to make freedom of speech an inalienable right tobe shared by all. A good portion of these battles have been fought in courtrooms. Judge andSupreme Court justices have dealt with issues ranging from what is a public figure to what isindecent speech. Many of these issues are not found in the original text of the Constitution. This hasforced the judges to devise tests to determine …
