The Fact Act Of 2003: Securing Personal Information In An Age Of Identity Theft, Terrance J. Keenan Oct 2005

The Fact Act Of 2003: Securing Personal Information In An Age Of Identity Theft, Terrance J. Keenan

Washington Journal of Law, Technology & Arts

The Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act of 2003 (“FACT Act”) makes incremental progress toward its goal of improving the protection of consumers and businesses in an age of increasingly sophisticated scams and cons. Congress enacted the FACT Act in order to further address the problems of identity theft, improve resolution of disputes over consumer credit information, enhance accuracy of consumer credit records, further regulate use of credit information, and broaden consumer access to credit information. The FACT Act imposes new business practices on companies that handle personal consumer information by requiring them to share with consumers information about data …

On-Demand Tutoring In Distance Education: Intrinsically-Motivated, Scalable Interpersonal Interaction To Improve Achievement, Completion, And Satisfaction, Peter B. Williams Oct 2005

On-Demand Tutoring In Distance Education: Intrinsically-Motivated, Scalable Interpersonal Interaction To Improve Achievement, Completion, And Satisfaction, Peter B. Williams

Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of the study was to test an intrinsically-motivated interaction approach, designed to increase distance education support, for both content and motivation, in a cost-effective manner. The literature summarized shows that distance education students desire content and motivational support beyond course materials and are limited in their success without it. Further, while researchers explore increased interaction as a solution, professors usually do not have time for it and attempts to provide it are often restricted by institutions' limited resources. Very little has been published on the effects of distance education tutors and the need for more research in this …

An Sas Macro For Implementing The Modified Bollen–Stine Bootstrap For Missing Data: Implementing The Bootstrap Using Existing Structural Equation Modeling Software, Craig K. Enders Oct 2005

An Sas Macro For Implementing The Modified Bollen–Stine Bootstrap For Missing Data: Implementing The Bootstrap Using Existing Structural Equation Modeling Software, Craig K. Enders

Department of Psychology: Faculty Publications

The Bollen–Stine bootstrap can be used to correct for standard error and fit statistic bias that occurs in structural equation modeling (SEM) applications due to nonnormal data. The purpose of this article is to demonstrate the use of a custom SAS macro program that can be used to implement the Bollen–Stine bootstrap with existing SEM software. Although this article focuses on missing data, the macro can be used with complete data sets as well. A series of heuristic analyses are presented, along with detailed programming instructions for each of the commercial SEM software packages.


Numerical Integration Of The Teukolsky Equation In The Time Domain, Enrique Pazos-Avalos, Carlos O. Lousto Oct 2005

Numerical Integration Of The Teukolsky Equation In The Time Domain, Enrique Pazos-Avalos, Carlos O. Lousto

Physics & Astronomy Faculty Publications

We present a fourth-order convergent, (2+1)-dimensional, numerical formalism to solve the Teukolsky equation in the time domain. Our approach is first to rewrite the Teukolsky equation as a system of first-order differential equations. In this way we get a system that has the form of an advection equation. This is then used in combination with a series expansion of the solution in powers of time. To obtain a fourth-order scheme we kept terms up to fourth derivative in time and use the advectionlike system of differential equations to substitute the temporal derivatives by spatial derivatives. This scheme is applied to …


Sluice Boxes On The Shores: An Environmental History Of Gold Mining On Oregon's South Coast, Tania Louise Hyatt-Evenson Oct 2005

Sluice Boxes On The Shores: An Environmental History Of Gold Mining On Oregon's South Coast, Tania Louise Hyatt-Evenson

Dissertations and Theses

Environmental historians have researched, analyzed, and concluded that gold mining significantly altered the environment in Southern Oregon. Environmental case studies have examined mining's impact on the watersheds in the Rogue Valley, but none have analyzed the effect gold miners had on the Southern Oregon coast. While gold mining occurred on the South Coast from the 1850s to the 1940s, on a smaller scale, the impact from environmental change is just as significant. The purpose of this study is to understand how mining changed the landscape of the South Coast, and how this change affected the human populations that lived in …

Hyades Oxygen Abundances From The K6300 [O I] Line: The Giant-Dwarf Oxygen Descrepancy Revisited, Jeremy R. King, Simon C. Schuler, Artie P. Hatzes, Martin Kϋrster, Lih-Sin The Oct 2005

Hyades Oxygen Abundances From The K6300 [O I] Line: The Giant-Dwarf Oxygen Descrepancy Revisited, Jeremy R. King, Simon C. Schuler, Artie P. Hatzes, Martin Kϋrster, Lih-Sin The

Publications

We present the results of our abundance analysis of Fe, Ni, and O in high signal-to-noise ratio, high-resolution Very Large Telescope UVES and McDonald 2dcoude´ spectra of nine dwarfs and three giants in the Hyades open cluster. The difference in Fe abundances derived from Fe ii and Fe i lines ([Fe ii/HÀ½Fe i/H)and Ni i abundances derived from moderately high-excitation ( %4:20 eV) lines is found to increase with decreasing Teff for the dwarfs. Both of these findings are in concordance with previous results of overexcitation/overionization in cool young dwarfs. Oxygen abundances are derived from the [O i] k6300 line, …


The Catalytic Reduction Of No By H-2 On Ru(0001): Observation Of Nhads Species, A. Hornung, Dmitry Zemlyanov, M. Muhler, G. Ertl Oct 2005

The Catalytic Reduction Of No By H-2 On Ru(0001): Observation Of Nhads Species, A. Hornung, Dmitry Zemlyanov, M. Muhler, G. Ertl

Other Nanotechnology Publications

Adsorption of NO and the reaction between NO and H-2 were investigated on the Ru(0001) surface by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Surface composition was measured after NO adsorption and after the selective catalytic reduction of nitric oxide with hydrogen in steady-state conditions at 320 K and 390 K in a 30:1 mixture of H-2 and NO (total pressure = 10(-4) mbar). After steady-state NO reduction, molecularly adsorbed NO in both the linear on-top and threefold coordinations, NHads and N-ads species were identified by XPS. The coverage of the NHads and N-ads species was higher after the reaction at 390 K …


Salinity (Conductivity) Sensor Based On Parallel Plate Capacitors, Shreyas Bhat Oct 2005

Salinity (Conductivity) Sensor Based On Parallel Plate Capacitors, Shreyas Bhat

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

This work is aimed at developing a high sensitivity salinity (conductivity) sensor for marine applications. The principle of sensing involves the use of parallel plate capacitors, which minimizes the proximity effects associated with inductive measurement techniques. The barrier properties of two different materials, AZ5214 and Honeywell's ACCUFLO T3027, were investigated for use as the insulation layer for the sensor. Impedance analysis performed on the two coatings using Agilent's 4924A Precision Impedance Analyzer served to prove that ACCUFLO was a better dielectric material for this application when compared to AZ5214.
Two separate detection circuits have been proposed for the salinity sensor. …
