Variations In The Secondary Metabolite Camptothecin In Relation To Tissue Age And Season In Camptotheca Acuminata, Zhijun Liu, Stanley B. Carpenter, Wayne J. Bourgeois, Ying Yu, Roysell J. Constantin, Matthew J. Falcon, John C. Adams

Faculty Publications

We investigated variation in concentration of the secondary metabolite, camptothecin (CPT), in relation to leaf, branch and tree age, season, and leaf drying method in Camptotheca acuminata Decaisne saplings. Younger leaves contained higher CPT concentrations than older leaves. Within a branch, there was a linear decline in CPT concentration from leaves at the apex of the branch down to Leaf 7. Comparing leaves of similar age, those from younger trees had higher CPT concentrations than those from older trees. Over the course of the growing season, there was a steady decline of 11% per month in leaf CPT concentration. Branches …

Attitude Measurement, Mark A. Stedham, Partha P. Banerjee, Seiji Nishifuji, Shogo Tanaka

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Publications

In many practical situations, it is important to determine and measure the attitude of a particular vehicle, such as a ship, an airplane, a piece of mechanical equipment such as a, crane lifter, or a spacecraft. For this reason, many attitude sensors have been developed with advanced computer and semiconductor technologies. This section first introduces the various attitude sensors with an explanation of their operating principles and then presents several methodologies for attitude measurement and determination, including ships and crane lifters, aircraft, and spacecraft applications.

Gratis Dictum! The Limits Of Academic Free Speech On The Internet, Ray August Jan 1998

Gratis Dictum! The Limits Of Academic Free Speech On The Internet, Ray August

University of Florida Journal of Law & Public Policy

This article is about the right of university professors to exercise their academic freedom to speak out and to teach in a new forum: the Internet. Although the Internet is a new forum, this article will attempt to show that the same basic rights and duties that apply to professors in the classroom and in the academic media apply to professors speaking out on the Internet. Part I sets the stage with a very brief history of the Internet. Part II examines the principal cases dealing with academic free speech as they relate to the Internet. Most of these cases …

The Media In The New Millennium: Exploring Myths And Misconceptions Before Shooting The Messenger, Sandra F. Chance Jan 1998

The Media In The New Millennium: Exploring Myths And Misconceptions Before Shooting The Messenger, Sandra F. Chance

University of Florida Journal of Law & Public Policy

The press has a crisis of credibility. May believe that the media increasingly violate basic standards of fairness, accuracy, objectivity, and respect for privacy in the rush to profit from sensationalizing sex, scandal, and violence. Criticism often turns into media bashing, as it has become almost derigueur to blame the media for all of society’s ills. Some of the bashing is deserved. Much of it is not. The entire industry is often blamed for the excesses of a few. And, there is a widespread temptation to shoot the messenger who brings the bad news.

Often, this underserved criticism flows from …


Union Dues And Politics: Workers Speak Out Against Unions Speaking For Them, R. Bradley Adams Jan 1998

Union Dues And Politics: Workers Speak Out Against Unions Speaking For Them, R. Bradley Adams

University of Florida Journal of Law & Public Policy

The purpose of this note is to examine the current movement towards implementing legislation that would require unions to obtain workers’ consent prior to using their compulsory dues and fees for political purposes. Part II is devoted to framing the major developments in the law that have roughly defined the limits of unions’ use of compulsory dues for political purposes. Part III provides an analysis of relevant U.S. Supreme Court cases and emphasizes First Amendment questions surrounding union expenditures of compulsory union dues and fees. Part IV addresses the movement in some states to require unions to obtain affirmative consent …


Speaking Freely About Reducing Violence Against Women: A Harm Reduction Strategy From The Law And Social Science Of Pornography, Michelle Chernikoff Anderson Jan 1998

Speaking Freely About Reducing Violence Against Women: A Harm Reduction Strategy From The Law And Social Science Of Pornography, Michelle Chernikoff Anderson

University of Florida Journal of Law & Public Policy

This article exposes legal scholars to the research essential to establishing support for an education policy that would inoculate our children against the potentially harmful effects of consuming media that promote violence against girls and women. It argues that Dworkin-MacKinnonites, concerned about pornography, and civil libertarians, concerned about free speech, should waste neither more time nor more ink debating this issue. Rather, it is time to dedicate our efforts to creating and implementing a harm reduction educational approach to protect our children against pornography.

Part II defines the terminology used throughout the article. Part III outlines the failures of current …

The Experience And Meaning Of Caring For Urban Family Caregivers Of Persons With Strokes, Linda L. Pierce Jan 1998

The Experience And Meaning Of Caring For Urban Family Caregivers Of Persons With Strokes, Linda L. Pierce

Wayne State University Dissertations

This ethnographic study examined the experience and meaning of caring as it influences urban family caregivers' (UFCs) capacity to care for persons with stroke within African American family systems. This study was executed within and supported the Framework of Systemic Organization (Friedemann, 1995), according to which families as open systems strive for congruence, a dynamic state of equilibrium, evidenced as health. In trying to achieve this state, each family's style of function is different, depending on the family's emphasis on Friedemann's process dimensions: system maintenance, system change, coherence, and individuation. The major research questions were the following: (a) What is …


First Lady, Last Rights--Extending Executive Immunity To The First Lady, T. Natasha Patel Jan 1998

First Lady, Last Rights--Extending Executive Immunity To The First Lady, T. Natasha Patel

UC Law Constitutional Quarterly

The First Lady's role has expanded beyond the traditional role of playing the White House hostess. The First Lady is actively involved in both domestic and international politics. Accordingly, in this Note, the Author argues that the First Lady's actions are entitled to qualified executive immunity whenever she acts as a representative of the federal government. The Author traces the development of executive branch immunity. The Author also discusses the role in politics, and otherwise, that the First Ladies have played throughout history. Finally, the Author examines the holding in Association of American Physicians and Surgeons, Inc. v. Hillary Rodham …


Paulo Freire: Community Based Arts Education, Christine Ballengee Morris Jan 1998

Paulo Freire: Community Based Arts Education, Christine Ballengee Morris

Journal of Social Theory in Art Education

This paper is about Paulo Freire and his influence on the perspective and application of literacy programming and interdisciplinary education through the arts. Portraiture, as used in this paper, is a collection of stories that illuminate historical, social, and cultural influences that connect Freire to a community and to the world. Freire’s pedagogical theory requires educators and students to examine self, culture, and community. It also addresses issues of power, voice, conflict, class, gender, and race. Freire’s philosophy and application illustrates the value he placed on education through life experiences/knowledge, the arts, and cultures of the people. In this paper, …
