description: Drawing on ethnographic data gathered in Cambodia and Rwanda, this thesis examines how local people in both countries engage with memorial sites created to commemorate mass atrocities. It focuses on two sites in each country, all of which prominently display human remains and other artifacts of atrocity. Building on Benedict Anderson’s conception of nations as “imagined communities” it seeks to probe how such sites, as curated by post-genocidal regimes, affect ideas of national belonging and whether they effectively create a narrative of “reassuring fratricide” upon which countries build a shared understanding of the nation’s past and present composition. According to my findings, although evidence of atrocity has been instrumentalized through memorialization in order to bolster the credibility of post-genocide regimes as rightful custodians of the nation, memorial sites pose a complex intervention in the eyes of the visiting public. Rather than fostering reconciliation, such memorial efforts can actually exacerbate underlying tensions related to national belonging and divergent historical experiences. Moreover, the purported need to preserve evidence of atrocity both challenges and, in some cases, modifies the local spiritual beliefs and customs of citizen visitors, reformulating the ways in which victims of state terror are either reintegrated into or rejected from the national body.

Functional organization of the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis
Creators: name: Nagy, Frank
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2013

description: This thesis examined the functional organization of the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (BNST), a poorly known brain region. Two series of experiments were performed. First, in anesthetized rats, we compared antidromic response latencies in anterior BNST (BNSTa) and central amygdala (CeA) neurons to brainstem stimuli. The frequency distribution of latencies was unimodal in BNSTa neurons (~10 ms) and bimodal in CeA cells (~10 and ~30 ms). After stria terminalis (ST) lesions, only short-latency antidromic responses were observed. Since BNST and CeA share excitatory basolateral amygdala (BL) inputs, lengthening the path of CeA axons might allow synchronization of BNSTa and CeA impulses to brainstem when activated by BL inputs. Consistent with this, the latency difference between CeA and BNSTa neurons to BL stimuli approximated that seen between the antidromic responses of BNSTa cells and CeA neurons with long-conduction times. These results point to a hitherto unsuspected level of temporal coordination between CeA and BNSTa neurons, supporting the idea of shared functions.  Second, in behaving rats, we recorded BNST neurons in anterolateral (BNST-AL) and anteromedial (BNST-AM) regions under spontaneous conditions and during auditory fear conditioning. The firing rates of BNST- AL and AM neurons were highest in paradoxical sleep, lowest during slow-wave sleep and intermediate during wakefulness. During habituation, most neurons were unresponsive to the conditioned stimulus (CS). After fear conditioning, many BNST-AL neurons developed inhibitory responses to the CS whereas in BNST- AM, neurons with positive CS responses prevailed. The behavior of BNST-AM and AL neurons during contextual fear paralleled their CS responsiveness: BNST-AM neurons fired at higher rates during contextual freezing than movement whereas BNST-AL cells did the opposite. However, in contrast with cued fear where similar proportions of BNST- AM and AL neurons were CS responsive, many more BNST-AM than AL neurons showed differential activity in relation to contextual freezing. These findings point to regional differences in the activity of BNST-AL and AM in relation to learned fear, raising the possibility that they exert opposite influences on fear output networks. The stronger recruitment of BNST-AM neurons during contextual relative to cued fear may account for BNST’s selective involvement in the former.

description: This study sought to explore the motivation of religious environmental groups (REG) to engage in climate change activism in the United Kingdom and the United States. The engagement of religious groups in climate change activism as civil society actors has potential for a significant impact on global environmental politics and remains largely under examined.   Given the recent rise in religious environmentalism, a limited understanding is available of the values which motivate this engagement in global politics.  This study examines the beliefs and values that motivate REGs to influence climate change politics in the United States and the United Kingdom. The REG framing of climate change and how their beliefs relate to support for environmental policies are examined in the context of advocacy coalitions.  The relationship of REGs to the wider environmental movement and their role in global politics is assessed, as well as whether RGEs constitute an emerging social movement.

In this figure, positive means correctly classifying a known silent gene as silent gene. The AUC for using allele ratio is 0.92. We used a cutoff of 0.3 to delineate genes between escape and silent genes, as this is the lowest allele ratio at which we have perfect classification of known silent genes. Figure S2. Female, male and gender non-biased genes show difference in replication timing in all the cell lines examined (ANOVA, P value = 0.101). Female biased genes show slightly earlier replication timing while male biased genes how later replication timing. Y axis denote replication timing values from Koren et al. (2012). Figure S3.

description: The primary objectives of this part of the Middlesex 208 study are:1. to identify, where practicable to do so within the availability of existing information, the sources of hazardous, toxic and solid wastes,2. to report on existing and potential adverse water quality impacts arising from such wastes, and 3. to identify alternative control methodologies for application to the management planning phase (Task 9) of the study.One conclusion from this report is that much work is needed in the. near future to develop the comprehensive, detailed data base on solid, hazardous and toxic waste activity in the study area. Such data is a requisite for proper identification and management of the problems that are anticipated for the future, as well as for controlling existing problems that potentially threaten the ground and surface waters in the study area.
Status driven strategy divergences
Creators: name: Perry-Rivers, Patrice
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2013

description: This dissertation examines the implemented strategy differences between entrepreneurial actors with different status positions embedded in socially stratified environmental contexts. Using a three study-model, I empirically examine my theory that groups of actors embedded within the same context but holding different status positions within it will develop different organizational identities and engage in divergent entrepreneurial strategies based on their differential access to resources for their entrepreneurial ventures. I find that differences are evident in the implementation of strategic actions between groups of enterprises primarily composed of actors with divergent status positions. These differences are manifest in their primary entrepreneurship types, value creation emphases (social or economic), and social interest orientations, as demonstrated in study one; in their social issue emphases strategies, as demonstrated in study two; and in their decisions to engage in entrepreneurship and their responses to economic adversity, as demonstrated in study three. Each of these studies supports the central proposition of this dissertation that stratification as an environmental context  and the status positions it assigns to groups of entrepreneurial actors produces heterogeneous entrepreneurial strategies.
Perceived social enviornment [sic] and self-reported health status among African American and African Caribbean immigrants in the U.S.

description: Immigrants of African descent experience better health outcomes than African Americans but this health advantage dissipates over time and in succeeding generations. Few studies have investigated the influence of environmental factors on their declining health. This study examined the relationship between individual characteristics, neighborhood features and exposure to the U.S. social contexts on self-reported physical and mental health status among African American and African Caribbean adults who reside in “predominantly” African American and African Caribbean neighborhoods in the U.S. The conceptual framework was drawn from several models, race and health model, eco-social theory, and environmental stress exposure – disease framework, as well as theories specific to immigrant populations. Secondary data analysis using bivariate and logistic regression analysis of the 2001-2003 National Survey of American Life dataset was conducted with the sample comprised of African Americans (2,140) and African Caribbeans (68&). Features of the neighborhood environment (higher social cohesion, neighborhood satisfaction, and frequent drug activity), immigrant status (age at migration and years lived in the U.S.) were associated with increased odds of fair or poor mental health. Nativity and number of years lived in the neighborhood were associated with  iii  increased odds of fair/poor mental health. Poorer perceptions of physical health were associated with increased exposure to the U.S. social context, based on number of years lived in the U.S. and by generation. Second and higher generation immigrants had increased odds of fair or poor physical health than first generation when controlling for age, gender, and SES, but not when physical and mental co-morbidities were added to control variables. African Caribbean immigrants and African Americans reported no significant differences in their overall self-rated mental and physical health status suggesting convergence of their health status mediated by exposure to similarly racially constituted neighborhoods and the U.S. social contexts.

The East Village underground
Creators: name: Purcell, Ryan D.
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2013

description: At the pinnacle of urban crisis that had ravaged cities across America, from the 1950s to the 19&0s, New York City embarked on a complete transformation that afflicted a wider radius urban space and affected the population in a much different way than the earlier crises. Gentrification and privatization of Manhattan not only displaced working and lower middle-class residents from their homes; the implementation of neoliberal economic policies paved the way for an unprecedented growth of the private sector through the 1980s, which began to impose a homogenized, conservative, suburban culture onto a diverse and heterogeneous urban landscape.    In the late-19&0s, artists in throughout Lower Manhattan reacted to the dramatic urban change that was taking place in New York City. They not only rejected the gentrification of urban space, which had displaced them from SoHo to the nearby Lower East and West Sides; their art and attitudes toward society was a direct response to the gentrification of urban culture. The counterculture that ensued originated in the East Village, taking shape around existing cultural institutions, but began to spread throughout Lower Manhattan, in isolated pockets, most notably at the Mudd Club, an underground salon in the Lower West Side. The art of the East Village underground was informed by two sources: first, through their collaboration with hip hop graffiti writers -whose subway graffiti was a direct protest to the substandard conditions of the South Bronx in urban crisis- underground art collectives in Lower Manhattan developed a unique Punk Art aesthetic that was use similarly to protest the inequities of urban change in the late-19&0s; second, deindustrialization not only left a plethora of abandoned buildings, in which art collectives staged consciousness-raising alternative art shows; the post-industrial cityscape became the primary cultural influence that pervaded the span of countercultural art in the East Village underground.    This perspective of urban change, from the point of view of artists in response, reveals the original effects of neoliberal economic policies on the urban landscape. Since the 19&0s and 1980s, the growth of the private sector in New York City has dominated urban public policy; the public-private partnerships, first implemented in the revitalization of Times Square, have become mainstays in the administration of urban government and have set the tone for the increasingly expensive and gentrified urban landscapes were see today. Artists of the East Village underground sounded a concerning alarm in response to the city’s transition into late-capitalism. As private corporate interests conquered the city, which became increasingly too expensive for working and middle-class people and artists to live and work, underground artists rejected social and cultural norms of the new ruling class; in response to the same conditions that dominate urban space today.
Two essays on regulation and transparency
Creators: name: Serrano, Alejandro
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2013

description: This dissertation includes two essays. The first essay analyses the effect of demutualization on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX). Exchanges have undergone significant transformations due to increased competition but some changes have created conflicts of interest, particularly when deciding which firms to delist. On the NYSE, delisting is an autonomous decision whereas on the TSX, external regulators have a larger role. After collecting data from involuntarily delisted firms that continue to trade on smaller listing markets between 2002 and 2009, I create a sample of 195 NYSE and 39 TSX firms. I calculate the percentage spreads on firms from both exchanges and find that spreads are larger and more volatile on the NYSE than on the TSX. These results are stronger after 2006, when the NYSE went public. Similar results are obtained when I look at firms that were delisted for trading below minimum quantitative standards.  The second essay studies the effect of post-transparency on the NASDAQ. Transparency has been promoted by the SEC as a measure that can reduce transaction costs and increase liquidity. However, empirical studies have shown that the benefits of transparency have not been entirely positive across different markets. This paper contributes to the transparency literature by measuring the effects on transaction costs after the implementation of the National Market System NMS. The paper looks at a sample of 2,882 firms that have trading information 60 days before and after NMS and were incorporated to the NMS between 1982 and 1989. The paper shows that spreads decrease by 5 percent and spreads of a matching sample also decrease but at a smaller magnitude. Another effect of transparency is a reduction of 41 percent in the volatility of returns after firms start trading on the NMS. This paper also shows that the effects of transparency are much stronger after removing firms that are already trading at very low spreads prior to NMS.
Essays on housing bubbles

description: Housing bubbles often cause serious problems to local economies and sometimes even cause global financial crisis. This dissertation addresses the following important questions about housing bubbles: What are the origins of housing bubbles? How do we estimate housing bubbles? What are the possible economic variables that relate to housing bubbles? I focus on the estimation of housing bubbles and the analysis of housing fundamentals and bubbles.    The first essay studies housing bubbles in the U.S. during the subprime crisis. Using the Kalman filter, I find significant evidence of a housing bubble in the U.S. city-average level and in six metropolitan areas in the U.S., including Los Angeles, San Francisco, Chicago, New York, Boston, and Miami, between 2004 and 200&. Population and income are found to be the main factors that affect housing fundamentals. Expected capital gains are found to be significantly associated with housing bubbles. Furthermore, I find a high correlation between housing bubbles and housing vacancy rates.    The second essay locates the time stamp of the origin and collapse of housing bubbles using augmented Dickey-Fuller (ADF) tests. An accumulated recursive regression and a rolling recursive regression are applied to test for U.S. housing bubble.  Test results confirm explosive behavior in the housing price process, which serves as a necessary condition for the existence of housing bubbles, for the U.S. aggregate and some U.S. cities during the subprime crisis. I find significant evidence of explosiveness in the rent data for most of the cities in the sample, but not in the U.S. aggregate data. Furthermore, the results show a trend of the U.S. housing bubble moving from the east coast to the west coast.

Remarks. The finding of P. obliquaria in Sakhalin significantly expands its distribution range to the northeast. The larvae are polyphagous on deciduous trees, but prefer various species of Quercus (Fagaceae). In addition to the collected moths, a mass flight of males was observed in an oak forest near the collection site during the daytime of October 22 and 24, in 2022. Probably, in Sakhalin this species is local and strictly associated to oak forests on the southern sunlit slopes.

Impact of migration on job satisfaction, professional education and the informal sector
Creators: name: Abdulloev, Ilhom
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2013

description: This dissertation focuses on three aspects of the economic life of migrants' relatives who remained in the source country. In the second chapter, we argue that migration increases the job dissatisfaction of migrants’ relatives who work in the source country. The family’s migration experience allows its members to construct expectations on earnings from migration using information either from the size of remittances or directly from migrants. If their expected earnings from migration greatly exceed their current wages in the source country, migrants' relatives become more dissatisfied with their current jobs. In the third chapter, we argue that migration has both positive and negative effects on education. In estimating the positive impact of remittances we suggest controlling for migration's side effects by including a dummy variable indicating whether there is a migrant in the household. This way, holding remittances constant, the coefficient on the dummy variable captures other negative side effects of migration as a change in the intercept between households with migrants and households without migrants. In the fourth chapter, we discuss how migration reduces informality in the source country: migrants’ incomes in new locations and income earned in the home informal economy become an imperfect trade-off. It is also because professional workers have more opportunities to engage in informal activities enabling them to forgo migration, but low-skilled non-professionals do not. We offer concluding comments in the final chapter.

Vitamin D ultraviolet radiation and disparities
Creators: name: Abruzzi, Amy E.
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2013

description: Vitamin D, a steroid hormone with documented anti-cancer properties, is largely obtained through environmental exposure.  It has been suggested that vitamin D deficiency, which is higher among U.S. Blacks than Whites, may contribute to survival differences from prostate and colorectal cancers.  In addition, Blacks may be at higher risk for Multiple Primary Cancers (MPCs) involving these tumor pairings. It is currently unknown what factors other than prior radiotherapy may contribute to MPC development.      The aims of this thesis were to: (1) conduct a systematic review of vitamin D radiation (VDR) and its relationship to prostate and colorectal cancers, including the role of the environment, sun-reactive Skin Types and their correlation with race/ethnicity; (2) examine whether Black/White differences in survival are related to VDR, and if higher levels of VDR are associated with increased survival from prostate and colorectal cancers; and (3) examine if Black/White disparities exit in MPC development for these cancers and if lower levels of VDR are associated with these disparities.      Using a retrospective, population-based cohort design, male patients aged 50 years and older who were diagnosed from 19&8 to 2003 with a non-metastatic first primary prostate, colon or rectal cancer were followed for 10 year survival and MPC development.  VDR levels were estimated based on the patient’s county of residency at diagnosis.  In addition to tumor factors, socio-demographic covariates such as county-level socio-economic deprivation and a proxy for smoking were included.  The analysis utilized a multivariate Cox Proportional Hazards model, adjusted for various factors, and an evaluation of competing risks.       The results indicate that VDR may contribute to Black-White differences in survival from prostate and colon cancer, which is strongly modified by urbanicity. While a moderate protective association was observed with increasing VDR among patients residing in all-urban areas, a modest increase in risk was observed among patients in least-urban areas.  To a lesser extent, VDR may also contribute to an increased risk of some MPCs.  More generally, Blacks are at higher risk for MPCs and several factors including prior radiotherapy, smoking and socio-economic deprivation may increase the risk of their development.
Labor, sex and spirituality on a South African border farm
Creators: name: Addison, Lincoln
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2013

description: This dissertation examines how labor relations are changing in South African commercial agriculture.  It is primarily based on an extended case study of a large-scale tomato farm I call “Heddon Estates”, located along the South Africa-Zimbabwe border.  For nine months, I lived among Zimbabwean workers in the farm compound and, for three months, in the home of a white manager.  I argue that labor relations are governed less by apartheid-era paternalism than by practices I characterize as delegated despotism.  This new production regime comprises at least four processes: a growing casualization of labor, new forms of private and public regulation, the monetization or withdrawal of many previously “in kind” benefits and services for farm laborers, and an expansion of the role of black intermediaries.  These processes reproduce the authoritarian legacies of paternalism, but minimize the potential for benevolence.  How management secures control over workers hinges not so much on the production of servile or deferential subjects, but the generalized fragmentation of the work force.    Paradoxically, the reliance on a fragmented and highly transient work force creates instability for the production regime.  Strikes, work-stoppages and theft of farm property appear increasingly common.  Transactional sex and worship practices emerge as important terrains of struggle within the work force.  Through transactional sex, the nominally most exploited group on the farm – women workers – are often able to increase their savings above that of men.  In so doing, however, they expose themselves to HIV/AIDS and other negative consequences.  Worship practices afford Zimbabweans a measure of solace and comfort amidst abject living and working conditions, but the largest farm church also projects the interests of management.  Managers discourage the growth of alternative church groups, and thereby limit the autonomous spaces from which challenges to the production regime might emerge

Material examined. 1 ♂, S Kholmsk, 12.X.2017.
Distribution. Russia (S RFE: SW Sakhalin; S Khabarovskii Krai, Primorskii Krai), central European Part (Moskovskaya Oblast, introduced), Japan (Hokkaido, Honshu), South Korea,?N China.
Remarks. The finding of L. orthogrammaria in Sakhalin significantly expands its distribution range to the northeast. The species belongs to the late autumn phenological group of the moths; in Hokkaido L. orthogrammaria fly in October (Sato 2011). The larvae are polyphagous on deciduous trees.
The wing pattern and the male genitalia of Larerannis albicans Nakajima & Wang, 2014, described from Shaanxi (Nakajima & Wang 2014: 56, figs 24, 37), almost match with those of the typical L. orthogrammaria, which was described from Primorskii Krai. Probably, the former name may be a junior synonym of the latter one.
