Mri-Assessed Volume Of Left And Right Hippocampi In Females Correlates With The Relative Length Of The Second And Fourth Fingers (The 2d : 4d Ratio), Janos Kallai, Arpad Csatho, Ferenc Kover, Tamas Makany, Janos Nemes, Krisztina Horvath, Norbert Kovacs, John T. Manning, Lynn Nadel, Ferenc Nagy

Research Collection Lee Kong Chian School Of Business

Atrophy of the left or right side of the hippocampus has been related to cognitive deficits and psychiatric disease. In this study, we examined the correlation between the hippocampal volume laterality index and the relative lengths of the second (index finger) and fourth (ring finger) digits (2D:4D) in healthy female subjects. The 2D:4D ratio is fixed in utero, and the ratio is higher in women than in men. There is evidence that this ratio is an indicator of the intrauterine concentration of testosterone, which influences the development of different regions of the brain. Assessing the volume of different parts of …

The Secret Life Of Mundane Transaction Costs, Richard N. Langlois Nov 2005

The Secret Life Of Mundane Transaction Costs, Richard N. Langlois

Economics Working Papers

Transaction costs, one often hears, are the economic equivalent of friction in physical systems. Like physicists, economists can sometimes neglect friction in formulating theories; but like engineers, they can never neglect friction in studying how the system actually does let alone should work. Interestingly, however, the present-day economics of organization also ignores friction. That is, almost single-mindedly, the literature analyzes transactions from the point of view of misaligned incentives and (especially) transaction-specific assets. The costs involved are certainly costs of running the economic system in some sense, but they are not obviously frictions. Stories about frictions in trade are not …


Confronting Race In The Composition Classroom, Kay A. Mooy Nov 2005

Confronting Race In The Composition Classroom, Kay A. Mooy

Rhetoric and Composition PhD papers

My premise is that the resources and opportunities in a society are unequally distributed among individuals according to group membership (race, gender, class, sexual orientation, etc.). Social institutions systematically reproduce inequalities that favor the dominant group and oppress others. I discuss using feminist pedagogy and contact/conflict zones be used in different ways to free classrooms from the invisible hegemonic theory of whiteness, which underpins all we do in our classrooms. bell hooks says we need to have "transformative" pedagogy. This paper will include methods to transform that pedagogy. No education is politically neutral. I propose decentering Western civilization to recognize …


Introduction To Gendering Modern Japanese History, Barbara Molony Nov 2005

Introduction To Gendering Modern Japanese History, Barbara Molony

History

Gender, as Joan Scott asserted in 1986, is a useful category of historical analysis.1 In the last quarter century, gender has emerged as a lively area of inquiry for historians and other scholars. Gender analysis has suggested some important revisions of the "master narratives" of national histories-that is, the dominant, often celebratory, tales of the successes of a nation and its leaders.2 These narratives, like all histories, are provisional and incomplete and, to varying degrees, reflect the changing material, discursive, and ideological contexts of their times.3 To mention just two of the fields of history that had …

Perspectives On Decisionmaking From The Blackmun Papers: The Cases On Arbitrability Of Statutory Claims, Ellen E. Deason Nov 2005

Perspectives On Decisionmaking From The Blackmun Papers: The Cases On Arbitrability Of Statutory Claims, Ellen E. Deason

Missouri Law Review

Judges' decisions must rank among the most documented types of decisionmaking. At the appellate level, in particular, the arguments made to judges are a matter of record and the decisions are recorded in written opinions that provide a reasoned explanation. Yet there are many unknowns about this decisionmaking process. This article draws on information found in the Blackmun Papers collection at the Library of Congress to explore Supreme Court decisionmaking as illustrated in the series of cases that opened the door to welcome arbitration of statutory claims. I The cases brought about the weakening and eventual abrogation of a long-standing …


Dump Truck Driver Crushed Between Trackhoe And Dump Truck, Kentucky Injury Prevention And Research Center Nov 2005

Dump Truck Driver Crushed Between Trackhoe And Dump Truck, Kentucky Injury Prevention And Research Center

Fatality Case Reports--Motor Vehicle

On November 11, 2004, a 33-year-old male dump truck driver died when he was crushed between the driver’s side of the dump truck and the swinging counter-weight of an excavator (trackhoe). His dump truck became stuck in mud after the trackhoe loaded dirt into it so he walked to the on-site office and informed the owner. The owner located a bulldozer on site and drove it to the dump truck while the driver retrieved a chain from his personal pickup truck. The owner raised the blade so the driver could attach the chain to it. Raising the blade of the …

A Perfect Union, Katherine S. Ankerson, Mark Hinchman

Interior Design Program: Faculty Scholarly and Creative Activity

TYPE: OFFICE.
CLIENT: UNION PACIFIC RAILROAD, OMAHA.
This rail-freight giant consolidated nine locations at a 1.3 million-square-foot headquarters. Images of locomotives and boxcars add a dose of excitement for train buffs.

HARNESSING THE RAW POWER OF THE DIESEL LOCOMOTIVE and translating it into a design concept, the Union Pacific Railroad’s new headquarters in downtown Omaha alludes to the history and present of this freight giant in ways both large and small. Principal Bill Hartman designed the 1.3 million-square-foot building to make architectural reference to rail travel. Note, for instance, how the rows of interior office windows offer glimpses into private …


A Covert Channel In Packet Switching Data Networks, Bo Yuan, Peter Lutz Nov 2005

A Covert Channel In Packet Switching Data Networks, Bo Yuan, Peter Lutz

Presentations and other scholarship

This paper presents a covert communication channel that exists in virtually all forms of packet switching data networks. On the one hand, this covert channel, if used properly, can potentially enhance the overall security of data communications over networks. On the other hand, the covert channel can also potentially become a back door to access a destination computer, and hence becomes a security hazard to the computer. A simple protocol is specified for communications on the covert channel. A modified TFTP application is also presented to demonstrate how to use the covert channel to convey secret messages or to enhance …


Exploring The Impact Of Technostress On Productivity, Monideepa Tarafdar, Bhanu S. Ragu-Nathan, T.S. Ragu-Nathan, Qiang Tu Nov 2005

Exploring The Impact Of Technostress On Productivity, Monideepa Tarafdar, Bhanu S. Ragu-Nathan, T.S. Ragu-Nathan, Qiang Tu

Presentations and other scholarship

Based on empirical survey data. this study uses concepts from socio-technical theory to explore the effects of information and computer technology (ICT) created stress. that is, "technostress" on productivity. The paper first explains the different ways in which ICT can create stress in users, and identifies factors that create technostress. Then, it establishes relationship among technostress creators and individual productivity, Structural equation modeling is used to analyze the data and test hypothesis. The results support the hypothesized relationship and have valuable implications for management in dealing with technology related stress issues among employees


An Asymptotic Secrecy Model And Its Applications In Sensor Networks, Bo Yuan Nov 2005

An Asymptotic Secrecy Model And Its Applications In Sensor Networks, Bo Yuan

Presentations and other scholarship

This paper proposes a new model for secure communication channels between two parties. The new model assumes that adversaries are storage space bounded, but not computationally bounded. At the initial phase of the secret communication, both parties exchange a large amount of random bits so that adversaries are not able to save them due to the storage space limitation. Each party only saves received data. At the second phase, each party regenerates the random bits, combines them with received data, and generates an encryption key iteratively with a one-way hash function. The key is then used to encrypt the future …
