President’S Emergency Plan For Aids Relief: Health Development At The Crossroads, Lawrence O. Gostin Dec 2008

President’S Emergency Plan For Aids Relief: Health Development At The Crossroads, Lawrence O. Gostin

O'Neill Institute Papers

The President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) was the largest commitment by any nation to combat a single disease in human history, authorizing up to $15 billion over 5 years. On July 30, 2008, President Bush signed into law the historic reauthorization of PEPFAR, dramatically increasing the financial commitment by authorizing up to $48 billion over 5 years, including $5 billion for Malaria and $4 billion for Tuberculosis. PEPFAR’s global targets are inspiring: treat 3 million people; prevent 12 million new HIV infections, and care for 12 million people, including 5 million orphans and vulnerable children. But, PEPFAR has …

D, Brian, Fcrh Honors Program

FCRH Honors Program Oral History Project

Father Brian D., S.J., is an American Jesuit priest and the Catherine F. Huiskin Professor of Theology (Emeritus) at the University of Notre Dame. In 2012, he received the illustrious Ratzinger Prize for Theology based on his ecumenical work in Church history and Orthodox studies, which Pope Benedict XVI praised for "knowing and loving the one and undivided Church [and] the wealth of her different traditions."

Before working and studying at Notre Dame, Oxford, and the Weston School of Theology, however, Brian D. was a graduate of the Fordham University Rose Hill Honors class of 1961. He majored in Classics, …

Working Hard For The Money: Trends In Women's Employment 1970 To 2007, Kristin Smith Dec 2008

Working Hard For The Money: Trends In Women's Employment 1970 To 2007, Kristin Smith

Carsey Publications

Seventy-three percent of married rural mothers with children under age 6 work for pay. As men's employment rates have dropped over the past four decades, more rural women are working to keep the lights on at home. Rural women are just as likely as their urban counterparts to work for pay, but they earn less, have fewer occupational choices, and have seen their family income decline as men's wages have not kept pace with inflation. Dr. Smith's report looks at over 30 years of data about women's employment.

Birck and NCN Publications

Enhanced fluorescence is observed from dye molecules interacting with optical nanoantenna arrays. Elliptical gold dimers form individual nanoantennae with tunable plasmon resonances depending upon the geometry of the two particles and the size of the gap between them. A fluorescent dye, Rhodamine 800, is uniformly embedded in a dielectric host that coats the nanoantennae. The nanoantennae act to enhance the dye absorption. In turn, emission from the dye drives the plasmon resonance of the antennae; the nanoantennae act to enhance the fluorescence signal and change the angular distribution of emission. These effects depend upon the overlap of the plasmon resonance …
