‘Mellow out or you will pay!’: The society of the spectacle in Dead Kennedys’ Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables and other late Cold War literature
Authors: Fletcher David G. 
Published: July 2015

Abstract
In Fresh Fruit, Dead Kennedys, like Joan Didion in Democracy (1984) and Thomas Pynchon in Vineland (1990), examine the American cultural landscape through the lens of an exaggerated and victorious totalitarian political regime as a way to investigate the failures of past cultural protest movements. Though Dead Kennedys and these authors may disagree on whether resistance to such a regime is futile, they can agree that recognizing the methods by which the society of the spectacle operates is the first step towards dismantling it. Fresh Fruit enters into a literary dialogue taking place throughout the last official decade of the Cold War, beginning with Ronald Reagan’s election in 1980, continuing throughout Reagan’s re-election in 1984, and ending after his presidency. Seeing Fresh Fruit in dialogue with these literary traditions, I propose that what the album adds to the cultural conversation taking place between these mediums is how it subverts the society of the spectacle. While Vineland (1990) and Democracy (1984) contend with the threat of gradually becoming a part of the society of the spectacle, Fresh Fruit seeks to arm its audience against that threat with the tools of resistance in the form of musical performance, lyrics and album artwork.
Working-class consciousness and connections to place in the work of Rancid
Authors: James Kieran 
Published: July 2015

Abstract
Karl Marx once wrote that ‘men [sic] make their own history but they do not make it in the circumstances of their own choosing’. This article studies the lyrics of the widely respected Californian punk band Rancid. With the Marx quote in mind, the expectation is that Rancid will address the social and political conditions of the (post-)modern, post-communist world whilst retaining some of the left-wing, quasi-Marxist radicalism that is now an established part of the punk rock ethos (neo-Nazi bands aside). It is argued that Rancid has an ‘emotive proletariat spirit’ that identifies with San Francisco’s East Bay region as a place of working-class, oppositional ‘otherness’, and with a globalized proletariat exploited by global capital and authoritarian regimes (see Rancid’s songs on Africa and China). The band critically examines aspects of life in quasi-communist countries such as China and Cuba in a manner that is devoid of much of the romanticizing of Third World Communism present in Joe Strummer of the Clash’s earlier punk world-view and mythology. Consistent with the present age, there is no expectation in Rancid of any future utopian socialist society and this point also distinguishes Rancid from the Clash, with whom they have frequently been compared.

Plücker varieties and higher secants
of Sato’s Grassmannian
Authors: Draisma Jan , Eggermont Rob H. 
Published: July 2015

Abstract
Every Grassmannian,
in its Plücker embedding, is defined by quadratic polynomials. We prove a vast, qualitative, generalisation of this
fact to what we call Plücker varieties. A Plücker variety
is in fact a family of varieties in exterior powers of vector spaces
that, like the Grassmannian, is functorial in the vector space and
behaves well under duals. A special case of our result says that for
each fixed natural number k, the k-th secant variety of any Plücker-embedded Grassmannian is defined in bounded degree
independent of the Grassmannian. Our approach is to take the limit of
a Plücker variety in the dual of a highly symmetric space known as
the infinite wedge, and to prove that up to symmetry the limit
is defined by finitely many polynomial equations. For this we prove
the auxiliary result that for every natural number p the space
of p-tuples of infinite-by-infinite matrices is Noetherian modulo
row and column operations. Our results have algorithmic counterparts:
every bounded Plücker variety has a polynomial-time membership test,
and the same holds for Zariski-closed, basis-independent properties of
p-tuples of matrices.

Forp>1{p>1}we introduce a new (fractional) Sobolev spaceAp⁢(Z){A^{p}(Z)}consisting of functions whose extensions to the hyperbolic filling ofZsatisfy a weak-type gradient condition. IfZsupports aQ-Poincaré inequality withQ>1{Q>1}, thenAQ⁢(Z){A^{Q}(Z)}coincides with the familiar (homogeneous) Hajłasz–Sobolev space.
Compact Quad-Band BPF Using Quad-Mode Stub Loaded Resonators
Authors: Chen Lei , Wei Feng 
Published: July 2015

AbstractA compact quad-band microstrip band-pass filter (BPF) using quad-mode stub loaded resonators (SLRs) is presented in this paper. The proposed SLR can achieve quad-band responses analyzed by the odd-even-mode method and have great flexibility to adjust the resonant frequencies. Based on the analysis, a quad-band filter centred at 1.57, 2.5, 3.5 and 5.2 GHz is designed and fabricated. The predicted results on S parameters are compared with the measured ones and good agreement is observed.
The annihilating-ideal graph of a lattice
Authors: Afkhami Mojgan , Bahrami Solmaz , Khashyarmanesh Kazem , Shahsavar Faeze 
Published: July 2015

Abstract
Let L = (L,∧,∨) be a lattice with a least element called zero and denoted by 0.
The annihilating-ideal graph of L, denoted by
𝔸𝔾(L), is a graph whose vertex-set is the set of all non-trivial ideals of L and, for every
two distinct vertices I and J, I is adjacent to J if and only if I ∧ J = {0}. In this paper, we study some properties of 𝔸𝔾(L). Also, we completely determine when the annihilating-ideal graph is complete bipartite, split and end-regular.

Authors: Duduchava Roland , Shargorodsky Eugene , Tephnadze George 
Published: July 2015

Abstract
In many applications it is important to be able to extend the (outer) unit normal
vector field from a hypersurface to its neighborhood in such a way that the result is a unit gradient field. The aim of this paper is to provide an elementary proof of the existence and uniqueness of such an extension.
Conditions for a safe state of automated road vehicles
Authors: Reschka Andreas , Maurer Markus 
Published: July 2015

Abstract
The term safe state is not yet defined accurately in the
context of automated road vehicles. In this paper we derive several
conditions, which are in our opinion important for the discussion of a
safe state for automated road vehicles. From an engineering view,
several concepts on the classification of automation levels are
analyzed and from their results and current research and development
approaches a definition of a safe state is proposed.
Especially the relation between risk and safety for passengers of
automated vehicles and other traffic participants is considered.
Several use cases for automated vehicles and events with impact to
safety are discussed to identify conditions for a safe state in public
traffic, which have to be fulfilled to keep the risk of operating an
automated vehicle below a reasonable level.
Vision-only fully automated driving in dynamic mixed-traffic scenarios
Authors: Schwesinger Ulrich , Versari Pietro , Broggi Alberto , Siegwart Roland 
Published: July 2015

Abstract
In this work an overview of the local motion planning and dynamic
perception framework within the V-Charge project is presented. This
framework enables the V-Charge car to autonomously navigate in dynamic
mixed-traffic scenarios. Other traffic participants are detected,
classified and tracked from a combination of stereo and wide-angle
monocular cameras. Predictions of their future movements are generated
utilizing infrastructure information. Safe motion plans are acquired
with a system-compliant sampling-based local motion planner. We show
the navigation performance of this vision-only autonomous vehicle in
both simulation and real-world experiments.
Automated driving on public roads: Experiences in real traffic
Authors: Pink Oliver , Becker Jan , Kammel Sören 
Published: July 2015

Abstract
Automated driving on public roads is affected by many foreseeable and
unforeseeable driving situations. Depending on the driving task, the
environmental and road conditions, and the behavior of other drivers,
different actions have to be taken. This paper provides a high-level
overview of the development of highly automated driving systems and
illustrates challenging situations and use cases. We outlined the
impact of these use cases on system design, key technologies, and
their technical realization for a highly automated driving system.
Furthermore, the paper demonstrates how certain aspects of the system
design as well as their implementation are country specific and how
continuous testing is required for robust implementation of the
functionalities.
The Policeman as a Witness
Authors: Joling RJ 
Published: July 2015

Abstract
In the past decade violent crimes have allegedly increased 174% at a time when the population of the United States has increased only 11%. Murders have allegedly increased 129%; forcible rape, 192%; robberies, 226%; and aggravated assaults, 139% [1]. During the same decade local spending for law enforcement has increased sevenfold, from one billion to seven billion dollars [1]. In addition, during the past half-decade, the Law Enforcement Assistance Administration has provided $3.5 billion to help state and local law enforcement agencies in an effort to stem crime on the national scene [1].
Methods Available for Solving Medicolegal Problems of Disputed Parentage
Authors: Wiener AS , Socha WW 
Published: July 2015

Abstract
Until recently, serologists confronted with a forensic problem of disputed parentage limited their tests to a few blood group systems only, especially the A-B-O system, M-N types, and Rh-Hr system. The tests were used mainly for providing evidence of exclusion of parentage, that is, if one or another of the blood groups of the respondent in a paternity action did not match with that of the child, the accused man could be excluded as father and exonerated of the charge of paternity by the court. If, however, the blood groups of the accused man matched, within the laws of heredity, those of the mother and child, the serological findings were interpreted as inconclusive. Because of the limited number of blood types such findings were not generally considered admissible by the court as evidence. There were occasional cases in which the accused man and the child shared a rare blood factor which the mother lacked; in such cases, the findings were usually considered circumstantial evidence though not absolute proof that the respondent was the father.
Age of Attainment of Mineralization Stages of the Permanent Dentition
Authors: Anderson DL , Thompson GW , Popovich F 
Published: July 2015

Abstract
All teeth share morphologically distinct stages of mineralization which can be identified radiographically [1–11]. Bilaterally symmetrical teeth attain each stage at a similar age [1,7,9–12]. Among individuals, the age at which each stage is attained varies, and the variability increases with age [13]. Males and females differ in the age at which their permanent teeth attain various stages of mineralization [2,8,9,11,14], but Nolla [9] has reported the degree of variability is similar in both sexes. The amount of sex differential varies among the teeth and is greatest for the mandibular canines [2,8,9,14].
IBM Correcting Selectric Typewriter: An Analysis of the Use of the Correctable Film Ribbon in Altering Typewritten Documents
Authors: Casey MA , Purtell DJ 
Published: July 2015

Abstract
The IBM Correcting Selectric typewriter was introduced 1 April 1973. It was a new dimension in typewriter history and a product that many wished had been conceived of years ago. The Correcting Selectric uses two types of ribbon systems: a Correctable Film ribbon with lift-off tape and a Tech III ribbon with cover-up tape. This paper is concerned with the former ribbon system because of the unique manner by which a typewriting error is corrected. The mechanical operation of the machine remains the same with both ribbon systems.
Individualizing Oil Delivery Imprints
Authors: Hilton O 
Published: July 2015

Abstract
How can a defendant get a fair trial when charged with rigging a series of fuel oil delivery slips in a period of fuel shortages and energy crunch? This is a problem for the courts and defense attorneys, but the document examiner in the same case can be faced with an unusual problem. How can the source of the slips be established? Are they from one meter? Or from several? Such a determination might well reveal significant evidence relevant to the indictment.

The State of the Art of Bone Identification by Chemical and Microscopic Methods
Authors: Burnham JT , Preston-Burnham J , Fontan CR 
Published: July 2015

Abstract
Traditionally, identification of skeletal remains has been based on distinguishing morphological characteristics. In the past three decades there has been a greater development of techniques used in identification. In part, this effort has been stimulated by the practical need to identify a large number of dead from major wars and by the employment of statistical methods such as multivariate analysis. In addition, new morphological criteria are continually being discovered which will aid the investigator by assigning a racial or sexual classification to bones. Examples of these are tear duct size [2] and total subperiosteal area of the second metacarpal [3]. Although the latter technique is not fully developed, it offers great promise.
Estimation of Age from Individual Adult Teeth
Authors: Burns KR , Maples WR 
Published: July 2015

Abstract
When one must identify a deceased individual, accurate estimation of the age of the individual is important. Teeth are particularly useful in age evaluations because they display a number of observable age-related variables and they tend to remain intact under circumstances which might alter or obliterate the rest of the skeleton. Where dental records are available, of course, separate determination of age may not be necessary, but when little or no information is available about the deceased individual, a simple estimation of age is of great value.
Homicidal Hanging Masquerading as Sexual Asphyxia
Authors: Wright RK , Davis J 
Published: July 2015

Abstract
Accidental asphyxiation occasionally results from autoerotic activity related to the sexual perversion of bondage, a variant of sadomasochism [1–4]. These deaths occur predominantly in the adolescent male population but also rarely in females [5, 6]. They are generally accepted as being accidental, although a recent textbook describes them as suicides [7].
An Overview of the Legal Aspects of Human Experimentation and Research
Authors: Little JW 
Published: July 2015

Abstract
The early months of 1975 perhaps saw more alarm created within the community of professional persons who involve themselves in healing human beings or in conducting research involving human subjects than ever before. The notorious Boston abortion case [1] and the current flap over medical malpractice insurance rates [2] are merely illustrative. Throughout the whole realm of activity that may be generically described as research and experimentation on human subjects this controversy ramifies with consequences yet unknown. The purpose of this paper is to provide an overview of the legal aspects of research and experimentation on human subjects, directed somewhat toward behavioral research and particularly behavioral research in nonlaboratory settings.
Studies by Crossed Electroimmunodiffusion on the Individuality and Sexual Origin of Bloodstains
Authors: Sweet GH , Elvins JW 
Published: July 2015

Abstract
The potential value of serologic reactions to forensic studies has been recognized since 1901 when Uhlenhuth [1] used the precipitin test to distinguish human from animal blood and Landsteiner [2] used agglutination to show ABO antigenic differences among human red blood cells (RBC). However, the successful use of serologic techniques in criminal cases did not occur until 1916 when Lattes [3] devised a simple agglutination test for ABO typing of human bloodstains. The Lattes test, though widely used in the past and improved in various ways [4ߝ9], is no longer the method of choice in most forensic laboratories because positive results depend on preservation of the activity of relatively labile antibodies in the stain.
Identification of Drugs and Other Toxic Compounds from Their Ultraviolet Spectra. Part III: Ultraviolet Absorption Properties of 22 Structural Groups
Authors: Siek TJ , Osiewicz RJ , Bath RJ 
Published: July 2015

Abstract
This paper concludes a series of three papers which present ultraviolet (UV) absorption data of drugs and toxic organic compounds systematically by grouping according to chemical structure. As in Parts I and II [1,2], structural groups are spectrophotometrically characterized by (1) an absorption profile which is a graph of wavelength versus absorbance from 200 to 340 rim, (2) the effect of pH change, (3) the effect of decreased solvent polarity relative to water, and (4) the intensity of the absorption bands. The purposes of this series are first, to aid in rapidly characterizing an unknown organic compound from UV data and second, to interpret UV spectra in terms of chemical structure. An analyst in a forensic situation should be able to defend an identification on the basis that a given molecular structure is specifically indicated by the tests conducted. Understanding the specificity of each test leads the analyst to more clear-cut decisions in establishing an identification with the degree of scientific certainty expected of him. Reviews and pertinent publications related to this presentation have been cited in Parts I and II [1,2].
Identification of Drugs and Their Derivatives
Authors: Wilkinson DR , Pavlikowksi F , Jenson P 
Published: July 2015

Abstract
Identification of abused drugs is a primary endeavor of any comprehensive drug program. Whiie Delaware State College's drug analysis program has long since established workable techniques for the primary screening of drugs in blood, saliva, and urine samples, we investigated rather novel areas, particularly the confirmation of drug identity in confiscated pills by instrumental analyses and the preparation and analysis of derivatives of these drugs. This investigation included these objectives: (1) preparation of reference spectra of some drugs (infrared, ultraviolet, and gas chromatography were most desirable for this purpose); (2) perfection of the procedures for producing convenient drug derivatives; (3) determination of the pill quantities required to proceed through preparation, extraction, purification, and analysis of detectable quantities of a drug or its derivatives; and (4) development of reasonable proposals for certain other drugs to be analyzed by the derivative procedures used.

The Application of a Standard Color Coding System to Paint in Forensic Science
Authors: Fouweather C , May RW , Porter J 
Published: July 2015

Abstract
Much of the effort of forensic scientists is directed towards establishing the possibility of a relationship between two or more items. The approaches vary, but generally, after a visual comparison, the items are subjected to several physical and chemical tests. In the case of paint samples, a visual examination will afford information as to the color [1], layer structure [2], thickness, pigment distribution, and so on. Subsequent tests could include pyrolysis gas chromatography [3] to establish the resin type and infrared spectroscopy [4,5] to examine both the paint vehicle and pigment. The visual examination of paint samples is one of the most valuable tests as it is easily and inexpensively carried out, affords high discrimination, and is nondestructive.
Heat Stroke and Fluphenazine Therapy Report of a Case
Authors: Forbes NT , Gordon EL 
Published: July 2015

Abstract
Deaths coded as heat stroke or sudden heat deaths are uncommon in forensic practice, particularly in areas where heat waves are rare [1,2]. Where sporadic cases occur, additional risk factors are likely to be present. These include the use of certain drugs, particularly phenothiazines, anticholinergic agents, and amphetamines [3]. Heat stroke often pursues an extremely rapid clinical course, and investigation of fatalities may consequently become the responsibility of the medical examiner [2]. The phenomenon of the acute impairment of thermoregulation as a result of phenothiazine therapy is not generally mentioned in general medical reviews of heat stroke [4,5]. However, many psychiatrists are aware of the association, and most of the documented fatalities have been in the psychiatric literature [6ߝ9]. The purpose of this paper is to report another case, with the classic findings of sudden death by heat stroke in a man with chronic schizophrenia who was on long-acting fluphenazine decanoate (Prolixin®) therapy. Environmental temperatures and relative humidity were only moderately high, demonstrating the importance of documenting the drug history and other potential risk factors in cases of this kind.
The Politicalization of the Juvenile Justice System
Authors: Johnson TA 
Published: July 2015

Abstract
In discussing the manner in which our juvenile justice system is subject to manipulation by the political process, four factors will be discussed: (1) treatment, (2) administration, (3) agency interface, and (4) selection and appointment of juvenile judges. These factors were selected not only because of the inherent political manipulability within each of them but also because of their more overriding ability to influence the personnel and components of the juvenile justice system in a distinctively negative fashion. These four factors are not always negative or uncontrollable; informed and enlightened juvenile court administrators could, to a degree, minimize the politicalization process and maximize the advantages that characterize these four factors. Whether we can presuppose the existence of such a group of enlightened juvenile court administrators is another matter. In any event, the objective of this paper is to discuss how these four very important variables within the juvenile justice system manifest their dysfunctional consequences and either latently or overtly contribute to the politicalization of the juvenile court and its personnel.
