description: This dissertation examines learning in disaster response networks from an intercrisis perspective. Using a complex systems framework to analyze disaster response networks and the distinct properties of their constituent parts, the author identifies relationships and processes that characterize multi-organizational responses to disasters. Starting with a traditional organizational learning model, the author observes and assesses rational-analytic learning efforts conducted by government and government-sponsored agents, following major catastrophes. The findings of this research suggest needed modifications in both theoretical models and processes to promote more effective learning in emergency response organizational systems, such as disaster response networks.

description: The antioxidants play an important role in the preservation of foods and the management of oxidative stress related diseases by acting on reactive oxygen species and free radicals. However, their use in high temperature processed food and pharmaceuticals are limited due to its low thermal stability. The objective of the study was to use the biofield energy treatment on butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) i.e. antioxidant and analyse its impact on the physical, thermal, and spectral properties of BHT. For the study, the sample was divided into two groups and termed as control and treated. The treated group was subjected to biofield energy treatment. The characterization of treated sample was done using X-ray diffraction (XRD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) and UV-visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy. The XRD results showed the alteration in lattice parameters, unit cell volume, and molecular weight along with 14.8% reduction in the crystallite size of treated sample as compared to the control. The DSC analysis showed an increase in the latent heat of fusion from 75.94 J/g (control) to 96.23 J/g in the treated BHT sample. The TGA analysis showed an increase in onset temperature of decomposition (130°C→136°C) and maximum thermal decomposition temperature (152.39°C→158.42°C) in the treated sample as compared to the control. Besides, the FT-IR analysis reported the shifting of aromatic C-H stretching peak towards higher frequency (3068→3150 cm-1) and C=C stretching towards lower frequency (1603→1575 cm-1) as compared to the control sample. Moreover, the UV spectrum also revealed the shifting of the peak at λmax 247 nm (control) to 223 nm in the treated sample. The overall results showed the impact of biofield energy treatment on physical, thermal and spectral properties of BHT sample.

description: Anime has been recognized as a distinct mode of image-thinking that can inform philosophical inquiry. In particular, anime has provided philosophies of media with new insights on how to reconceptualize subjectivity and collectivity within our contemporary media-worlds. This essay aims to contribute to this project by examining how anime’s media-form interacts with the shared cognitive processes of human imagination that are actualized within anime’s fictions. Analysis will describe anime’s image-creation processes as techniques of imagination, that is, as material and cognitive “strategies and devices” that make complex, non-present objects “perceivable and experienceable,” and so enable collective practices of speculation (Heise, 2008, p. 67). The essay elaborates these techniques as an “enactive” mode of social imagination, a collaborative process of sense-making through which creators and viewers feel through the contours of contemporary social imaginaries and explore conditions of possibility for changing them (Gallagher, 2017). The theoretical and political implications of this view will be examined through a comparative analysis of two original series from the high period of neoliberal hegemony in Japan: Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion (Taniguchi, 2006-2008) and Penguindrum (Ikuhara, 2011). These very different series similarly use anime techniques of imagination to experientially navigate what Thomas Lamarre (2018, p. 29) calls the media “infrastructure complex” of early 21st-century Japan. The two series’ fantasies of changing the world within this context become perceivable through anime’s multivalent processes of social imagination, which move from the fictional enactments themselves and out into broader projects of re-imagining real-world social relations. The essay will ultimately argue that anime’s social imagination offers a way to philosophically and critically mobilize the enduring role of fictional experience and its forms of agency as tools for negotiating between different layers and conceptualizations of media-experience and their political enunciation.

description: 4-Bromoacetophenone is an acetophenone derivative known for its usefulness in organic coupling reactions and various biological applications. The aim of the study was to evaluate the impact of biofield energy treatment on 4- bromoacetophenone using various analytical methods. The material is divided into two groups for this study i.e. control and treated. The control group remained as untreated and the treated group was subjected to Mr. Trivedi’s biofield energy treatment. Then, both the samples were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), and UV-visible spectrometry (UV-vis). The XRD study revealed that the crystallite size of treated 4-bromoacetophenone was decreased significantly to 16.69% with decreased intensity as compared to the control. The thermal studies revealed that the slight change was observed in the melting point and latent heat of fusion (ΔH) of biofield energy treated sample as compared to the control. Maximum degradation temperature (Tmax) of treated 4-bromoacetophenone was decreased by 7.26% as compared to the control (169.89°C→157.54°C). The FT-IR spectra showed that the C=O stretching frequency at 1670 cm-1 was shifted to higher frequency region (1672 in T1 and 1685 cm-1 in T2, in two treated samples for FT-IR) after biofield energy treatment. Moreover, the GC-MS data revealed that the isotopic abundance ratio of either 13C/12C or 2H/1H (PM+1)/PM was decreased up to 9.12% in T2 sample whereas increased slightly up to 3.83% in T3 sample. However, the isotopic abundance ratio of either 81Br/79Br or 18O/16O (PM+2)/PM of treated 4-bromoacetophenone was decreased from 0.10% to 1.62% (where PM-primary mass of the molecule, (PM+1) and (PM+2) are isotopic mass of the molecule). The UV spectra showed the similar electronic behavior like absorption maximum in control and treated samples. Overall, the experimental results suggest that Mr. Trivedi’s biofield energy treatment has significant effect on the physical, thermal, and spectral properties of 4-bromoacetophenone.

Predatory journals: A potential threat to the dissemination of open access knowledge
Creators: name: Bocanegra-Valle, Ana
Publisher: name: Palgrave Macmillan
Year: 2023
Subjects: subject: Scholarly publishing

description: Using qualitative analytical methods and a corpus of 50 unsolicited email messages sent by predatory publishers and collected over two years, this study sets out to investigate the main themes that prevail in predatory publishing to generate interest and convince authors for submitting their work. It also critically assesses deceptive editorial practices that may flout mainstream academic publication standards and put the quality of scientific research and the advantages of publishing open access at stake. The dataset was iteratively coded and qualitatively analysed by means of NVivo 11 Pro. Findings show that predatory discourse overuses boastful language and relies on self-promotional explicit references to high quality in order to persuade authors, and achieve their predatory aims. The last section discusses the implications of predatory journals for the dissemination of non-validated knowledge, the spread of misconduct and misdirection, and the impact on scholars aiming for visibility in a global academia.

Sustainability Analysis Patterns for Process Mining and Process Modelling Approaches
Creators: name: Fritsch, Andreas
Publisher: name: Karlsruher Institut für Technologie (KIT)
Year: 2024

description: Business Process Management (BPM) has the potential to help companies manage and reduce their activities' negative social and environmental impacts. However, so far, only limited capabilities for analysing the sustainability impacts of processes have been integrated into established BPM methods and tools. One of the main challenges of existing Sustainable BPM approaches is the lack of a sound conception of sustainability impacts. This paper describes a set of sustainability analysis patterns that integrate BPM concepts with concepts from existing sustainability analysis methods to address this challenge. The patterns provide a framework to evaluate and develop process modelling and process mining approaches for discovering, analysing and improving the sustainability impacts of processes. It is shown how the patterns can be used to evaluate existing process modelling and process mining approaches.

Creators: name: (:Unkn) Unknown

Year: 2021

description: Research that examines abusive supervision attests to myriad negative effects for subordinates. Faced with this difficult reality, evidence suggests that abused subordinates frequently seek out and receive social support. However, previous studies provide mixed support for the effectiveness of social support for abusive supervision. Here, I integrate Conservation of Resources Theory with social support theories to create an overall model meant to explain how social support can help abused subordinates by providing resource substitutes. More specifically, I theorize that certain types of high-quality social support moderate (i.e., buffer) corresponding outcomes of abusive supervision. In Studies 1 and 2, an eight-dimension measure of high-quality social support for abusive supervision was developed based on relevant theory. This model was validated in two independent samples of full-time employees who had experienced abusive supervision and received support (n = 246, 257). The measure demonstrated strong psychometric properties as well as convergent and discriminant validity. In Study 3, a similar sample (n = 317) allowed for a test of the full theoretical model; participants responded to the final measure of social support for abusive supervision and other measures related to abusive supervision across three time points. Results showed that high-quality esteem support moderated relationships between abusive supervision and work-related negative affect, and between abusive supervision and organization-based self-esteem (conditional upon self-directed attributions). Study 3 further demonstrated that – contrary to the relevant prediction – advice that is high in perceived efficacy is associated with increased workplace deviance. Collectively, these findings establish a foundation for further research on social support for abusive supervision and by extension, social support for other workplace stressors.

description: In my thesis, I argue that the cultural and artistic movement of glass pipes of the last twenty years should be acknowledged in the history of art and be respected as an art world of their own defining a new division of decorative arts. Through personal interviews with a select group of glass pipe makers and analysis of their large body of work, I present a clear understanding of the history of this glass pipes and what drives the style, form, and functionality of their work. Along with the makers, buyers and dealers at trade shows as well as glass pipe collectors around the United States are examined. In many ways my thesis will be the first to attempt to validate this new form of glass and place it within both glass working traditions and decorative arts more generally, while arguing the glass pipe community has formed a new art world according to the rules of Howard Becker’s social analysis.

description: Human trafficking is a global issue and a grave violation of human rights. This thesis sets out to investigate how successful Canada has been up to date in combating the crime. Canada’s main developments in anti-trafficking have been established in the past three years and literature is lacking on these recent efforts. This thesis intends to fill this gap in literature with an analysis on current Canadian anti-trafficking legislation. The extent of success will be determined by two dynamics. The first dynamic of success is the ability of Canadian legislation to appropriately balance a security and humanitarian approach to tackling human trafficking issues. The second dynamic is examining the fulfillment of commitments to the UN Trafficking Protocol demonstrated by Canada’s anti-trafficking efforts. After much research, it has been determined that Canada has contributed a great deal to the anti-trafficking fight in the past three years and with a few improvements to existing legislation, will become successful in combating human trafficking at home and contributing to the fight internationally.

description: Η έννοια της δια βίου μάθησης στην τρίτη ηλικία απευθύνεται σε άτομα που βρίσκονται στο στάδιο της συνταξιοδότησης, δηλαδή σε ηλικία 60 ετών και άνω. Η δια βίου μάθηση φαίνεται βιβλιογραφικά να έχει πολυάριθμα πλεονεκτήματα καθώς συμβάλει στη διατήρηση της ενεργού συμμετοχής του ατόμου σε αρκετά επίπεδα προκειμένου την επίτευξη της «ενεργού γήρανσης» - αντί για τον όρο «γήρανση», που συνήθως παραπέμπει σε κάτι που οφείλεται σε ανεπάρκεια. Θεωρείται εξίσου με τις άλλες μεθόδους ως μια σημαντική εκπαιδευτική διαδικασία η οποία βοηθάει τους ηλικιωμένους να χρησιμοποιούν το δυναμικό τους, να λαμβάνουν ατομική ικανοποίηση και να έχουν κοινωνική συνεισφορά προάγοντας έτσι και τη βασική φιλοσοφία της πολιτικής της Ευρωπαϊκής Ένωσης για τη τρίτη ηλικία. Η παρούσα συστηματική ανασκόπηση είναι μια προσπάθεια να παρουσιαστούν οι φορείς - τα εκπαιδευτικά ιδρύματα κάθε είδους που προάγουν τον όρο της δια βίου μάθηση ως δομές που προωθούν την επιτυχή γήρανση μέσω της βελτίωσης της γνωστικής και ψυχοκοινωνικής λειτουργίας του ατόμου. H ανασκόπηση διενεργήθηκε σύμφωνα με τα Προτιμώμενα Στοιχεία Αναφοράς για Συστηματικές Ανασκοπήσεις και Μετα-ανάλυση (PRISMA) σε διάφορες βάσεις δεδομένων, ενώ, οι όροι αναζήτησης περιλάμβαναν μόνο αγγλική ορολογία με προσπάθεια εστίασης σε μελέτες από το 2010 και μετά. Μεταξύ των μελετών που αναζητήθηκαν, τέσσερις μελέτες πληρούσαν τα κριτήρια ένταξης και αξιολογήθηκαν στην τελική ανασκόπηση. Μέσα απ τις μελέτες διαφάνηκε ότι η μάθηση, τυπική ή άτυπη φαίνεται να έχει καθοριστικό ρόλο στην ζωή των ανθρώπων τρίτης ηλικίας καθώς με τις γνώσεις που αποκτά το άτομο βελτιστοποιεί τις ικανότητές του, ανανεώνει τις γνώσεις του και αποκτά νέες, ενώ, παράλληλα του δίδεται η ευκαιρία αυτό - εκπλήρωσης σε ένα δημοκρατικό περιβάλλον που το δραστηριοποιεί διαδραστικά. Τα άτομα έχουν την ευκαιρία να γεράσουν υγιή και ενεργά συμμετέχοντας σε δραστηριότητες και μπορούν να διατηρήσουν την ενεργό ιδιότητα του πολίτη.

subject: Influence in Ukraine, Moldova, and Georgia

description: This thesis explores the ways in which the politically ambiguous status of the former Soviet grey zones allows Russia to exert influence over Georgia, Ukraine, and Moldova. Literature review and case studies indicate that there are a few key strategies which allow this influence to take hold: passportization, economic coercion, presence of troops, and the strategic manipulation of official peace talks. The cases of Transnistria, Abkhazia, South Ossetia, and the Luhansk and Donetsk People’s Republics illustrate the use of these strategies on the ground in different contexts. These strategies are made possible in part by the ambiguous political status that the grey zones hold and contribute to both keeping the zones in their liminal state and influencing the parent state for Russia’s political and military interests.

description: Chitosan (CS) and sodium alginate (SA) are two widely popular biopolymers which are used for biomedical and pharmaceutical applications from many years. The objective of present study was to study the effect of biofield treatment on physical, chemical and thermal properties of CS and SA. The study was performed in two groups (control and treated). The control group remained as untreated, and biofield treatment was given to treated group. The control and treated polymers were characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, CHNSO analysis, X-ray diffraction (XRD), particle size analysis, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). FT-IR of treated chitosan showed increase in frequency of –CH stretching (2925→2979 -1) vibrations with respect to control. However, the treated SA showed increase in frequency of –OH stretching (3182→3284 cm-1) which may be correlated to increase in force constant or bond strength with respect to control. CHNSO results showed significant increase in percentage of oxygen and hydrogen of treated polymers (CS and SA) with respect to control. XRD studies revealed that crystallinity was improved in treated CS as compared to control. The percentage crystallite size was increased significantly by 69.59% in treated CS with respect to control. However, treated SA showed decrease in crystallite size by 41.04% as compared to control sample. The treated SA showed significant reduction in particle size (d50 and d99) with respect to control SA. DSC study showed changes in decomposition temperature in treated CS with respect to control. A significant change in enthalpy was observed in treated polymers (CS and CA) with respect to control. TGA results of treated CS showed decrease in Tmax with respect to control. Likewise, the treated SA also showed decrease in Tmax which could be correlated to reduction in thermal stability after biofield treatment. Overall, the results showed that biofield treatment has significantly changed the physical, chemical and thermal properties of CS and SA.

description: The 6.4\,keV Iron reflection line possesses strong diagnostic potential for AGN-systems. In the rare case of unobscured AGN, this line receives a contribution from the very center of the accretion flow close to the event horizon that is subject to strong relativistic effects. The shape of this line distortion can be used infer important parameters of the central accretion region, especially the black hole spin parameter $a*$ and the accretion disk inclination $i$.\\

We analyze several (nine?) bare AGN spectra from the sample of Walton et al. 2012 using high resolution spectra from the XMM and NuStar archives. The relativistic reflection is modeled using the \textsc{Relxill} code (Dauser 20XX). The newest iteration of the \textsc{Relxill} model also supports a lamp post geometry for the irradiation of the accretion disk.\\

By combining these detailed models with the wide spectral range of NuStar and XMM/NuStar joint observations we can put tight constraints on the aforementioned parameters and we can constrain the height of the source $h$ in a possible lamp post geometry.

description: This book provides a novel analysis for the syntax of the clausal left periphery, focusing on various finite clause types and especially on embedded clauses. It investigates how the appearance of multiple projections interacts with economy principles and with the need for marking syntactic information overtly. In particular, the proposed account shows that a flexible approach assuming only a minimal number of projections is altogether favourable to cartographic approaches. The main focus of the book is on West Germanic, in particular on English and German, yet other Germanic and non-Germanic languages are also discussed for comparative purposes.
title: Technical Report on Logic Obfuscation for Protecting the Semiconductor Intellectual Properties in the Manufacturing Supply Chain

Year: 2019
Subjects: subject: Logic locking

description: The increasing cost of building, operating, managing, and maintaining state-of-the-art silicon manufacturing facilities has pushed several stages of the semiconductor device’s manufacturing supply chain offshore. However, many of these offshore facilities are identified as untrusted entities. Processing and fabrication of ICs in an untrusted supply chain pose a number of challenging security threats such as IC overproduction, Trojan insertion, Reverse Engineering, Intellectual Property (IP) theft, and counterfeiting. To counter these threats, various hardware design-for-trust techniques have been pro-posed. Logic obfuscation, as a proactive technique among these techniques, has been introduced as a technique that obfuscates and conceals the functionality of IC/IP using additional key inputs that are driven by an on-chip tamper-proof memory. Shortly after introducing the primitive logic locking solutions, a very strong attack based on the satisfiability solvers (SAT) was shown that could break all previously proposed locking mechanisms in almost polynomial time. To thwart this attack, researchers have investigated many directions, such as formulating locking solutions that significantly increase the number of required SAT iterations, or formulating the locking solutions such that it is not translatable to a SAT problem. However, further investigations demonstrated that some of these locking techniques are vulnerable to other types of attacks such as Signal Probability Skew (SPS) attack, removal attack, approximate attacks, bypass attack, and Satisfiability Module Theories (SMT) attack. Besides, these techniques suffer from very low output corruption. Hence, an unactivated IC behaves almost identical to an unlocked IC except one or a few inputs. In this report, first, we will characterize the SAT attack, which shows that how using different SAT solvers can produce different results with large deviations which demonstrates that long execution time or high memory usage in one SAT solver may not be a problem in another solver. Next, we discuss a branch of SAT-resilient methods called cyclic locking and propose efficient methods to introduce feedbacks into a circuit in a way that SAT and its improved versions for cyclic circuits could not find the correct key. Then, we discuss a new branch of obfuscation techniques that tries to restrict access to the scan chain and thus circumvent the SAT attack. In there, we discuss a new attack method called unrolling SAT that potentially could be used for breaking obfuscated scan chains and recover the protected design.

The plastic-coated canopy will likely reduce decibel intrusion into residential space above the restaurant. Lake Anne merchants protest that il Cigno’s permanent canopy impairs their view of the plaza and therefore the reverse view which potential customers in the plaza have of their shops. Sagging sales have been alleged.

description: Allport (1937) used the term “cardinal trait” to refer to an individual whose personality can be characterized by a single trait “so dominant that there are few activities that cannot be traced directly to its influence” (pp. 338). In a sample of English-speaking adults recruited via Amazon MTurk (n = 401), 75% of participants endorsed having a maladaptive cardinal trait (Sharpe, 2022). This present study is designed to 1) provide direct replication of this prior study in a sample recruited from Prolific and 2) to examine whether rates of endorsement are affected by alterations to the definition provided for “cardinal trait” and/or demand characteristics present in the prior study.

Subjects: subject: Education

description: Draft for discussion at the Annual Conference of the Comparative and International Education Society March 26-29, 1975
description: The purpose of this paper is to initiate an inquiry into a currently "fashionable" educational phenomenon presently referred to as "non-formal education." It is hoped that the paradigm resented will provide yet another interpretive perspective by which we can more fully understand the consequences of this educational phenomenon. It is a major contention of this paper that a more conceptually rigorous approach will enable us to understand better how non-formal education might contribute to or inhibit social change and development in societies undergoing rapid modernization.

title: WHO RUNS THE WORLD? AN EXAMINATION OF BLACK WOMEN AND LEADERSHIP IN STATE LEGISLATURES
Creators: name: (:Unkn) Unknown
Publisher: name: George Mason University
Year: 2020

description: In 2020, black women continue to occupy a unique position in American politics, and their status is still widely misunderstood and undetermined. Many scholars have researched black women and their political behavior, but few have assessed how institutions impede or facilitate their influence within democratic legislatures. My research seeks to fill this gap in the literature by examining black women and leadership in state legislatures. In recent years, black women have been able to obtain an increasing number of elected seats in state legislatures, as they actually run for office and win more often than both white women and black men; and yet, these women are still grossly underrepresented in leadership positions. This research seeks to answer this question: Do black women attain leadership at different rates than other groups, and if so, why? This paper uses panel data that spans from 2007 to 2014 and includes 13,147 legislators from all fifty states to examine this puzzle. I argue that differences in ideology between black female legislators and their peers may help to explain differences in leadership attainment. However, I suggest that even after ideology is examined, a residual gap will remain. I forward an innovative concept called the Heavy Lifter Theory that identifies the connection between black women, their communities, and the U.S. Labor Market to explain the differences between black men and black women, the role of intersectionality, and the role of race in leadership attainment. Using a logistic regression, I found that ideology, intersectionality, race, and gender are all statistically significant with regards to chamber-level leadership. Key Words: Black women, state legislatures, intersectionality, Heavy Lifter Theory.
title: Implications of Truth: Perspective of A Bartender

Publisher: name: George Mason University
Year: 2013
Subjects: subject: Bartender
subject: Existentialism
subject: Female perspective
subject: Experimental film
subject: Dive bar subculture
subject: Narrative

description: This thesis is an examination of the subculture in the alternative world of a dive bar through the perspective of a female bartender. The examination includes a collection of colliding expressions between memory and experience through narrative and actual recorded images. Within an occupation of the service industry, the bartender’s perspective evolves into a repetition of transcendence. Collecting this experience and then expressing it through a punk aesthetic onto experimental film to provide evaluation, becomes an action for the search of a truth. Dive bars are containers of unspoken truths, much as the cinematic still that carries an image from a passing moment in time. Deconstructing experience from an existential perspective allows an environment cluttered in chaos to become clarified. It is through the preservation of experience that allows humanity to captures its essence.

description: It is well documented in literature that engineering students seek information by asking their peers before seeking information from other sources, such as asking a professor or performing a literature search. Social networking and other technologies, such as short message service, instant messaging, and even e-mail can be used to foster a peer type of relationship between educators and students. An online student survey can be used for this purpose as well. Assessment of library instruction sessions is important to ensure that students are learning what is intended. Surveying students can ensure instructional relevancy, reveal missing lecture information, and highlight points that create confusion. In addition to improving the instruction, implementing feedback can be used as a collaborative tool between the presenter and the students. This paper will illustrate, by example, the value of using several tools, some traditional and some not, to create an engaging, collaborative learning experience.

The Link Between Uv And X-Ray Emission In Quasars

description: Quasars are well known to exhibit a non-linear relationship between the UV emission from their accretion disks and the X-ray emission from the surrounding corona. This relationship has recently been used to include quasars as standard candles in a Hubble diagram in order to estimate the cosmological parameters ΩM and ΩΛ (Risaliti and Lusso 2015). This project aims to improve this method by adding a large sample of quasars detected by ROSAT. These sources have been matched to UV and IR counterparts using GALEX and WISE data, and have optical spectra available from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, which resulted in

a catalogue of 5500 sources in the redshift range 0 ≤ z ≤ 2. This project will investigate whether the L(X-ray) - L(UV) relationship is universal to quasars of all types. Optical spectra and spectral energy distribution fitting will be used to test the L(X-ray) - L(UV) relationship for signs of evolution with quasar properties such as redshift, black hole mass, and Eddington ratio. A large number of sources from this sample will be added to the Hubble diagram in the redshift range currently populated by type 1a supernovae (z ≤ 1.4). This will allow the cosmological parameter results obtained from quasars to be compared directly with those obtained from supernovae.
