Remarkable Waxing, Waning, And Wandering Of Populations Of Mimulus Guttatus: An Unexpected Example Of Global Warming, Robert K. Vickery Jr.

Great Basin Naturalist

The purpose of this study was to observe the dynamics of a meta-population of Mimulus guttatus. Changes in size and location of 16 original populations and the new populations established in their vicinities in Big Cottonwood Canyon, Salt Lake County, Utah, were observed for 25 yr. Twenty-three new populations appeared. Seven original populations and 13 new populations had become extinct by the end of the observation period in 1996. Many populations died out and were reestablished, often repeatedly, during the observation period. Altogether there were 54 population disappearances and 34 reappearances. Many populations changed sized as much as 100-fold …

Paper Session Iii-C - Improving Public Education Beyond 2001, Dian L. Hardison

Space Congress® Proceedings

The following paper is an investigation into deficiencies in the current education system, the assumptions upon which it is founded, and possible corrective actions. Suggested actions for remediation include: training, selection, and designation of Master Teachers, and extending their classroom availability through video and computer access; modifying the over-extended practice of tenure, along with an improved evaluation process to remove poor teachers and reward outstanding ones; the nation-wide establishment, and enforcement, of high performance standards; increased opportunities for above-average students, as well as segregation of problem students into an environment appropriate to them; elimination of large amounts of the administrative …

Paper Session Iii-B - Development Of Biomolecular Techniques For The Analysis Of Gravity Sensing Mechanisms In Space Flight Specimens: Applications In Biomedicine And Gravitational Biology, K. M. Johnson, J. E. Love

Space Congress® Proceedings

On Earth, the origin and evolution of life has been influenced by constant exposure to a gravitational field. An ever-present epigenetic (extrinsic) force of one gravitational unit (1g) affects the morphology, development, physiology, and behavior of living organisms; the extent and diversity of adaptations to this force underscore its importance as an environmental factor1,2. Changes in the gravitational environment often have drastic and pleiotropic consequences, and have been described empirically for numerous organisms ranging from humans and mice to snails and plants, and even bacteria3,4. We must be able to compensate for these changes before we can plan any long-term …

Increasing The In-Seat Behavior Of A Third Grade Boy With Adhd Using Positive Reinforcement And Self-Reinforcement, Michael J. Miltenberger

Theses and Dissertations

An ongoing challenge for all teachers, especially special education teachers, is developing intervention programs to control the behavior of their students. The author of this research project attempted to improve the in-seat behavior of a third grade boy with ADHD by implementing a behavior modification program using positive reinforcement and self-reinforcement. The author used positive reinforcement for five weeks before moving on to the self-reinforcement portion for an additional twelve weeks. The purpose was to increase the subject's in-seat behavior while also having him become actively involved in his behavioral program. The results show that the subject's in-seat behavior did …

Human Solidary : A Reconciliation Between Plato And Rorty, Larina M. Orlando

Honors Theses

In Contingency, irony and solidarity, Richard Rorty outlines his conception of the ideal liberal utopia, wherein moral change results from the substitution of Freedom for Truth as "the goal of thinking and of social progress" (xiii). Rorty maintains that autonomous self-creation and human solidarity are not to be united in a "single vision" (xiv), but rather, "the closest we will come to joining these two quests is to see the aim of a just and free society as letting its citizens be as privatistic, 'irrationalist', and aestheticist as they please so long as they do it on their own …

Growth Of Nanotubes For Probe Microscopy Tips, Jason H. Hafner, Chin Li Cheung, Charles M. Lieber

Barry Chin Li Cheung Publications

Carbon nanotubes, which have intrinsically small diameters and high aspect ratios and which buckle reversibly, make potentially ideal structures for use as tips in scanning probe microscopies, such as atomic force microscopy (AFM)^{1, 2, 3, 4}. However, the present method of mechanically attaching nanotube bundles for tip fabrication is time consuming and selects against the smallest nanotubes, limiting the quality of tips. We have developed a technique for growing individual carbon nanotube probe tips directly, with control over the orientation, by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) from the ends of silicon tips. Tips grown in this way may become …

Paper Session Ii-D - Science Communication For The Life Sciences At Kennedy Space Center, T. W. Dreschel Ph.D.

Space Congress® Proceedings

In the Aeronautics and Space Act of 1958, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) was created and directed to: Provide for the widest practicable and appropriate dissemination of information concerning its activities and the results thereof. Horack and Treise (1998) define science communication as: the process through which a message of new knowledge or technology is delivered to a particular customer, in a way that adds value to the research itself, because knowledge has been shared with someone who wants or needs it for some use. Customers of science communications even include the traditional science information generator - the …

Paper Session Ii-A - Nuts And Bolts, Charles Debelius

Space Congress® Proceedings

Imagine Kennedy Space Center in mothball status, weeds choking walkways, buildings crumbling back to nature, launch towers red with rust. Imagine what was once a critical mass of the world's finest space engineers and scientists now dispersed, their collective synergy lost forever. Imagine that they counted down to the millennium in 1999, launching it with fanfare and high hopes, but learned too late that the launch vehicle was flawed, an undetected self-destruct mechanism activating and slowly, yet inexorably, shutting down critical systems.

This is not a science-fiction story, nor is it a doomsday prediction. It is, however, a tale about …
