Disappearing Acts: The State And Violence Against Women In The Twentieth Century, Michelle Fine, Lois Weis Jan 2000

Disappearing Acts: The State And Violence Against Women In The Twentieth Century, Michelle Fine, Lois Weis

Publications and Research

As children we held our breath, our senses filled with the musty smells of elephants, the staccato flashes of twirling plastic flashlights, the terrors of trapeze. With mystery, moustache, and elegance, the magician waved a wand, invited a woman, usually White, seemingly working class, into a box. She disappeared or was cut in half. Applause. Our early introduction to the notion of the sponsored disappearing act. So, too, at the end of the twentieth century, we witness poor and working-class women shoved into spaces too small for human form, no elegance, no wand. And they too disappear. Disappearing from welfare …


Nutrients As A Link Between Ionic Concentration/Composition And Diatom Distributions In Saline Lakes, J. E. Saros, Sherilyn C. Fritz Jan 2000

Nutrients As A Link Between Ionic Concentration/Composition And Diatom Distributions In Saline Lakes, J. E. Saros, Sherilyn C. Fritz

Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences: Faculty Publications

Diatom profiles in closed-basin lake sediments are commonly used to reconstruct climate change based on the observed correlations between salinity (ionic concentration) and modern diatom assemblages. Diatom assemblages are strongly correlated not only with salinity but also anion composition, with certain taxa characteristic of carbonate systems and others sulfate-dominated waters. Although strong correlations exist, the actual mechanisms behind these correlations are unknown. Here we briefly review the influence of salinity and ionic composition on nutrient dynamics in saline lakes and suggest that these interactions may drive shifts in diatom species composition along gradients of ionic concentration/ composition. We discuss the …


Comparison Of The Adsorbed Mercury Screening Method With Cold-Vapor Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry For Determination Of Mercury In Soil, Donald F. Easterling, Edward S. Hovanitz, Kenneth W. Street Jan 2000

Comparison Of The Adsorbed Mercury Screening Method With Cold-Vapor Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry For Determination Of Mercury In Soil, Donald F. Easterling, Edward S. Hovanitz, Kenneth W. Street

United States National Aeronautics and Space Administration: Publications

A field screening method for the determination of elemental mercury in environmental soil samples involves the thermal desorption of the mercury from the sample onto gold and then the thermal desorption from the gold to a goldfilm mercury vapor analyzer. This field screening method contains a large number of conditions that could be optimized for the various types of soils encountered. In this study, the conditions were optimized for the determination of mercury in silty clay materials, and the results were comparable to the coldvapor atomic absorption spectrophotometric method of determination. This paper discusses the benefits and disadvantages of employing …


Low Potassium Enhances Sodium Uptake In Red-Beet Under Moderate Saline Conditions, G. V. Subbarao, R. M. Wheeler, G. W. Stutte, L. H. Levine Jan 2000

Low Potassium Enhances Sodium Uptake In Red-Beet Under Moderate Saline Conditions, G. V. Subbarao, R. M. Wheeler, G. W. Stutte, L. H. Levine

United States National Aeronautics and Space Administration: Publications

Due to the discrepancy in metabolic sodium (Na) requirements between plants and animals, cycling of Na between humans and plants is limited and critical to the proper functioning of bio-regenerative life support systems, being considered for long-term human habitats in space (e.g., Martian bases). This study was conducted to determine the effects of limited potassium (K) on growth, Na uptake, photosynthesis, ionic partitioning, and water relations of red-beet (Beta vulgaris L. ssp. vulgaris) under moderate Na-saline conditions. Two cultivars, Klein Bol, and Ruby Queen were grown for 42 days in a growth chamber using a re-circulating nutrient film …

In their article Professor Krotoszynski and Mr Blaiklock assess diversity and broadcast media regulation in contemporary America First the authors consider the Federal Communications Commissions regulatory attempts to promote diversity in television and radio broadcasting The authors discuss the Commissions difficulties in defining and characterizing diversity and further note some of the inconsistencies inherent in the Commissions dual emphasis on competition and diversity in broadcast programming also mentioning the threat to democratic values posed by unduly concentrated media ownership Next the authors chronicle the burgeoning judicial hostility to raceconscious governmental policies and practices They discuss the related shift from intermediate …


Law's Expression: The Promise And Perils Of Judicial Opinion Writing In Canadian Constitutional Law, Paul Horwitz Jan 2000

Law's Expression: The Promise And Perils Of Judicial Opinion Writing In Canadian Constitutional Law, Paul Horwitz

Articles

This article argues that there is a link between ones theory of constitutional law and ones judgments about style in judicial opinion writing It identifies several special functions of the constitutional opinion including the democratic function of responding to the countermajoritarian difficulty through an act of public justification and the intergenerational function of provoking a temporally extended dialogue about constitutional values Drawing on these functions it argues for an opinion writing style dubbed opentextured minimalism which seeks to resolve cases narrowly articulate fundamental values and principles and spark longterm debates about the underlying values supporting each decision The article then …

Second Phase Study Of Changes In In-Service Asphalt (Vol 2: Appendices), Khaled A. Galal, Thomas D. White, Adam J. Hand Jan 2000

Second Phase Study Of Changes In In-Service Asphalt (Vol 2: Appendices), Khaled A. Galal, Thomas D. White, Adam J. Hand

JTRP Technical Reports

In response to the need to improve asphalt pavement performance, the Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP) was initiated in 1987. Products from SHRP included performance-based specifications for asphalt binders and performance-based mix design tests and criteria for asphalt mixtures. The superpave asphalt binder specification addresses performance of in-service pavements for given environmental and traffic conditions. During the 1985 paving season in Indiana, the original asphalt binder and HMA (truck mix samples) from a number of pavements were sampled and retained. Cores were also taken from these pavements after seven or eight years of service. Conditions surveys were performed on these …

Wireless Local Area Network For Its Communications Using The 220 Mhz Its Spectral Allocation, J. V. Krogmeier, Ness Shroff Jan 2000

Wireless Local Area Network For Its Communications Using The 220 Mhz Its Spectral Allocation, J. V. Krogmeier, Ness Shroff

JTRP Technical Reports

The objective of this project was to design a radio architecture using the ITS spectral allocations in the 220-222 MHz Land Mobile band which provides a multi-mode operation optimized for point-to-point, mobile, and multiple access communications. A radio performance goal was to achieve greater than 3 bits/second/Hz transmission efficiency for mobile applications, and greater than a 5 bits/second/Hz transmission efficiency for point-to-point applications. An additional important goal of this project was to explore potential ITS applications of the modem technology particularly as applied to an application in sensor telemetry concentration. The fixed point modem will be deployed for remote surveillance …

However, one difference between the two standards is that SAS No. 75 does not require a written assertion as a condition for performance of an agreed-upon procedures engagement. This assertion is effectively embodied in …
