description: Asociación Alfa is a philanthropic organization that seeks alternative means of support for individuals with disabilities who do not reside with their families. One of the pillars of the organization is offering group homes for young adults with mental disabilities over the age of 18.
The second pillar of the organization is based on regular and joint creative activity. Momentarily, 36 people live in 5 houses in Lorquí and Ceutí, where they are assisted 365 days a year. The project is financially supported by the Spanish state and by the autonomous region of Murcia.
Furthermore, the organization founded a theatre group called Corralarte. At Corralarte, people with and without disabilities work together on their theatre productions. The people at Asociación Alfa believe that artistic expression is a human right, regardless of their abilities. This right has also been enshrined in the 2008 UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities.
In the theatre group, creative processes are developed and analysed. The group plays with different methods and techniques that activate the body and the voice. They take the different abilities of the actors as a starting point and try to find the authentic expression of every person in the group. Hence, theatre is a sort of creative release or channel where the participants of the group can express their inner world to the outside world.
The group’s productions are aimed at people with and without disabilities. Their plays represent their contribution to a more inclusive cultural scene. Since 2009, Asociación Alfa has organised the “MuestrArte” in Ceutí, an exposition of art and diversity where theatre performances take place also. Moreover, since 2014, Corralarte has performed at the yearly “Noche de San Juan” (the night before St. John’s Day) in Ceutí.
Corralarte performed at various inclusive festivals in different Spanish cities such as Madrid, Úbeda, Alcázar de San Juan, and in the region of Murcia. Also, the group performed at the 9th Jornadas Nacionales sobre la Inclusión Social y la Educación en las Artes Escénicas (National Days for the Social Inclusion and Education in Performing Arts) in Murcia.
Geological and geochemical aspects of the Liontown VHMS deposit North Eastern Queensland
Creators: name: Miller, CR
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: The Liontown VHMS deposit lies in the central portion of the 165km long, E-W trending, narrow belt of deformed Cambro-Ordovician marine sediments and volcanics known as the Mount Windsor subprovince of northeastern Queensland. Liontown is shown to be a volcanic-associated massive sulphide deposit comprising both seafloor exhalative and subhalative mineralisation. Metal zonation studies suggest the exhalative mineralisation was vented onto the seafloor on the edge of a paleo ridge and migrated down slope to the west and southeast. Sulphur, lead, oxygen and carbon isotope data is consistent with a VHMS parentage. The Liontown deposit is temporally associated with the change from dacitic to rhyolitic volcanism and may have a more shallow water setting than previously considered. The Carrington Lode at Liontown is a sub-seafloor replacement body interpreted to have formed by the eastward lateral migrat\i on of hydrothermal fluids preferentially through an ashy and feldspar bearing volcaniclastic horizon. The associated black Mg-chlorite alteration is infered to mark a zone of seawaterhydrothermal fluid mixing. The application of stable isotope and rare earth element (REE) analyses to provide \"vectors\" to mineralisation is invesigated in the thesis. The whole rock oxygen isotope data collected along the footwall alteration system indicates that this technique has good vectoring potential to zones of elevated hydrothermal temperature. Refinement of the raw data through the calculation of relative temperature estimates is demonstrated as an important data manipulation procedure particularly for data sets where the sample mineralogy is highly variable. The Liontown carbonate exhalative facies and the sericitic siltstones of the 'favourable horizon' each have positive europium anomalies (Eu/Eu*>l). In the immediate Liontown deposit area a proximal to distal trend was observed in the carbonate europium data set suggesting there is some scope to develop the intensity ofEu/Eu* as a vectoring tooL"

description: The aim of this work is to search for radio signals in the quiescent phase of accreting millisecond X-ray pulsars, in this way giving an ultimate proof of the recycling model, thereby unambiguously establishing that accreting millisecond X-ray pulsars are the progenitors of radio millisecond pulsars. To overcome the possible free-free absorption caused by matter surrounding accreting millisecond X-ray pulsars in their quiescence phase, we performed the observations at high frequencies. Making use of particularly precise orbital and spin parameters obtained from X-ray observations, we carried out a deep search for radio-pulsed emission from the accreting millisecond X-ray pulsar XTE J0929-314 in three steps, correcting for the effect of the dispersion due to the interstellar medium, eliminating the orbital motions effects, and finally folding the time series. No radio pulsation is present in the analyzed data down to a limit of 68 microJy at 6.4 GHz and 26 microJy at 8.5 GHz. We discuss several mechanisms that could prevent the detection, concluding that beaming factor and intrinsic low luminosity are the most likely explanations.

The geochemsitry of the Fosterville Goldfield, Victoria
Creators: name: Nand, A
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: The Fosterville goldfield occurs in sandstones, siltstones and shales of Ordovician age, associated with the brecciated shear zones and associated stockworks of the Fosterville Shear Zone. The Fosterville Fault is a planar mineralized structure with significant old mine workings in the oxidized zone over a strike length of 8 km. The present Central Ellesmere and F.osterville prospects are situated along the Fosterville Fault. The style of mineralization present in the Fosterville goldfield is a sedimentary rock-hosted gold deposit, along the Fosterville Fault Zone. Gold occurs within sediment hosted arsenopyrite and pyrite, in crystal lattice and/or as minute inclusions. The mineralized fault breccia and associated stockworks are vertical to sub-vertical and up to 30 m in width; only very minor quartz veining occurs. The origin of the Fosterville gold deposit is considered to be genetically related to a granite source, with a temperature for the mineralizing fluid of approximately 370 oc. The depth of the system range from 6.5-10 km. PIXE (proton-induced x-ray emission) and AAS (atomic absorption spectroscopy) have been very useful in analyzing for trace elements in vein quartz. The Fosterville quartz shows generally high levels of trace elements. The analyses showed positive correlation between the presence ofK, Ge, AI and As with Au in the host rock and ihe intensity of the EPR (electron paramagnetic resonance) of quartz veins. There is a highly significant correlation between the Ge content and EPR of the quartz at the absorption peak at g 2.0027. The present study indicates that the paramagnetic centre is Ge-AI related. The high correlation between Ge, Au and EPR suggests that EPR and Ge may be used as an indicator of gold mineralization in this type of deposits. Ge is an element typically enriched in late magmatic and hydrothermal minerals.
title: Viability of Seed Produced by Annual Weeds and Winter Wheat Treated With Herbicides

description: Large sums of money are spent annually for herbicides to control weeds in fall sown wheat. Many of these weeds are killed by such treatments while others survive and mature seed. Viability of seeds produced by weeds injured by systemic or growth regulator type herbicides has long been a matter of great interest, much speculation, and very little research. Data on this subject are needed in order to intelligently use chemicals for weed control.

description: In 1993, Ángel Negro as well as David and Tomi Ojeda laid the foundation for the later formation of the ensemble El Tinglao. In its present form, it has existed since autumn 1995. The group includes artists with disabilities whose performance leads to new possibilities for the perception of art. The spectator is confronted with other bodies and other ways of thinking. Through the integration of different artistic disciplines, dynamic and innovative projects are implemented without descending into stereotypes. El Tinglao describes itself as an artistic collective that builds bridges by using art and creativity as a means of raising social awareness. The productions, training workshops, and teaching as well as the exchange with other institutions, offer new perspectives to the members of the ensemble, for example for their entry into the labour market.
The collective summarizes its maxim in the following two formulas:
- Capacidad Para Actuar y Bailar = Deseo de Hacerlo + Formación (Ability to act and dance = Desire to do so + Training)
- Diversidad = Belleza (Diversity = Beauty)
Since 1997, El Tinglao has been involved in international projects in Europe and Latin America and has collaborated, for example, with the French theatre group L'Oiseau Mouche and the Mexican collective La Manga. In addition, El Tinglao participated in the Festival Internacional Trabajo, Cultura y Discapacidad, the II Festival Internacional de Teatro y Danza in Lima, Peru, and the Festival Very Special Arts in São Paulo, Brazil. In 1999, the ensemble began to collaborate with the Proyecto Transatlántico. It includes artists, theatre groups, dramaturges, and pedagogues of the performing arts from Chile and Spain. In 2000, El Tinglao was awarded the Segundo Premio and the Premio Especial at the competition XIV Certamen Coreográfico de Madrid with the piece A piel de pies.

Theatre Group

description: Enki Teatro is a project uniting both persons with and without disabilities to work in the area of theatre and beyond to convert theatre into a message of inclusion and culture, channelled through the process of learning, expression, and diversion. This way, the artists become emissaries of the message whilst simultaneously turning into active members of the community. The cultural association uses culture in different forms to attain and deepen social groups subject to any form of exclusion. Up to now, the group has been working with people with disabilities of a more advanced age.
Enki’s main objectives are three: First, to unite persons with different abilities in a creative experience, integrating them in a theatre project, whereby the different personal characteristics are used as tools of creativity and expression. Second, Teamwork, improving interpersonal communication and the expression of the I. Third, to document the theatre process to produce a film. The motivation of Enki is to produce theatre works with professional actors as well as physical and/ or intellectual disability in the form of a creative collective, which allows every participant to have a voice, transforming the lives of the said people at the same time. This way, the importance of culture is instilled in its most varying forms, also revealing the group’s three core values: equality, collaboration, and solidarity.
title: Evaluating the Availability of Organic Nitrogen in Soils
Creators: name: Romaih, Saleh M.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1975

description: The main objective of this study was to evaluate the organic N in silty clay loam soil as an indicator of soil fertility. The incubation method was used in this study. The N03 -N, the total N percent, and the organic matter were determined. The soil which was used in this study came from Evans Research Farm. The samples were taken from two different N experiments which were adjacent to each other. The soil samples were taken in October-November, 1973, after the crop had been harvested. These two experiments had different cropping histories.
The results of the first experiment which had continuous corn for four years indicated that there was no correlation between the mineralizable-N and the crop performance, but there was a good correlation between the No3 -N and crop yield. The results of the second experiment which had alfalfa for three years prior to corn indicated that there was a good correlation between N03-N and the crop performance and also there was a correlation between mineralizable-N and crop performance.
It was concluded that cropping history could be used as a guideline as to whether mineralizable-N should be tested as an indication of soil N availability. In situations where the cropping history is unknown, N03-N could be used exclusively since it was a good fertility predictor in both of these field experiments.

title: Red Raspberry Root Rot in Northern Utah
Creators: name: Powelson, Robert L.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1956

description: During the last few years, red raspberry growers in Utah have been finding that plantings gradually lose vigor and are not profitable. In the largest raspberry growing area in Utah, Utah County, figures taken from the U.S. census from 1930 to 1950, show a decrease in acres of raspberries grown from 401 in 1930 to 190 in 1950 (2). In many instances this deterioration of raspberry plantings in Utah has not been definitely associated with known plant pathogenic fungi or virus infections. Neither can the expansion of suburbs account for this decrease. In certain cases it has been obvious that other factors were involved. Since attention had already been directed to above-ground symptoms, the next logical step was to exam in the roots.

description: Within an extended chiral constituent quark model, three- and five-quark structure of the $S_{01}$ resonance $Λ(1405)$ is investigated. Helicity amplitudes for the electromagnetic decays ($Λ(1405) \to Λ(1116)γ$, $Σ(1194)γ$), and transition amplitudes for strong decays ($Λ(1405)\toΣ(1194)π$, $ K^{-}p$) are drived, as well as the relevant decay widths. The experimental value for the strong decay width, $Γ_{Λ(1405)\to (Σπ)^\circ}=50\pm 2$ MeV, is well reproduced with about 50% of five-quark admixture in the $Λ(1405)$. Important effects due to the configuration mixings among $Λ^{2}_{1}P_{A}$, $Λ^{2}_{8}P_{M}$ and $Λ^{4}_{8}P_{M}$ are found. In addition, transitions between the three- and five-quark components in the baryons turn out to be significant in both radiative and strong decays of the $Λ(1405)$ resonance.

description: By applying a hydrodynamic representation of non-relativistic scalar electrodynamics to the superconducting order parameter, we predict a negative (attractive) pressure between planar superconducting bodies. For conventional superconductors with London penetration depth $λ_\text{L} \approx 100 \text{ nm}$, the pressure reaches tens of $\text{N/mm}^2$ at angstrom separations. The resulting surface energies are in better agreement with experimental values than those predicted by the Hartree-Fock theory, and the emergent electric-field screening length is comparable to that of the Thomas-Fermi theory. The model circumvents the bulk limitations of the Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer and Ginzburg-Landau theories to the analysis of superconducting quantum devices.

description: Extracellular vesicles are membranous structures shed by almost every living cell. Bacterial gram-negative outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) and gram-positive membrane vesicles (MVs) play important roles in adaptation to the surrounding environment, cellular components' exchange, transfer of antigens and virulence factors, and infection propagation. Streptococcus pneumoniae is considered one of the priority pathogens, with a global health impact due to the increase in infection burden and growing antibiotic resistance. We isolated MVs produced from the S. pneumoniae reference strain (R6) and purified them via size exclusion chromatography (SEC) to remove soluble protein impurities. We characterized the isolated MVs by nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA) and measured their particle size distribution and concentration. Isolated MVs showed a mean particle size range of 130–160 nm and a particle yield of around 1012 particles per milliliter. Cryogenic transmission electron microscopy (cryo-TEM) images revealed a very heterogeneous nature of isolated MVs with a broad size range and various morphologies, arrangements, and contents. We incubated streptococcal MVs with several mammalian somatic cells, namely, human lung epithelial A549 and human keratinocytes HaCaT cell lines, and immune cells including differentiated macrophage-like dTHP-1 and murine dendritic DC2.4 cell lines. All cell lines displayed excellent viability profile and negligible cytotoxicity after 24-h incubation with MVs at concentrations reaching 106 MVs per cell (somatic cells) and 105 MVs per cell (immune cells). We evaluated the uptake of fluorescently labeled MVs into these four cell lines, using flow cytometry and confocal microscopy. Dendritic cells demonstrated prompt uptake after 30-min incubation, whereas other cell lines showed increasing uptake after 2-h incubation and almost complete colocalization/internalization of MVs after only 4-h incubation. We assessed the influence of streptococcal MVs on antigen-presenting cells, e.g., dendritic cells, using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and observed enhanced release of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, a slight increase of interleukin (IL)-10 secretion, and no detectable effect on IL-12. Our study provides a better understanding of gram-positive streptococcal MVs and shows their potential to elicit a protective immune response. Therefore, they could offer an innovative avenue for safe and effective cell-free vaccination against pneumococcal infections. © Copyright © 2020 Mehanny, Koch, Lehr and Fuhrmann.
Innovation at heritage tourist attractions
Creators: name: Crozier, JM
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: If heritage attractions are to be economically sustainable, they must be relevant to their potential and current audiences. If they are to be socially and environmentally sustainable, they must also ensure their heritage significance does not fade with the passing of time. Heritage attractions arguably exist within an environment shaped by disequilibrium where public perception shifts constantly as each generation imposes their own attitudes and values on the past and how it is represented. If heritage attractions are part of a global inheritance they must innovate to meet changing demands at the same time as supplying new, meaningful experiences for each generation. Significance values are reflected by the choice of built heritage, artefacts, relics, myth and narrative; how these become mutable resources for innovation at the same time as providing a competitive advantage is a focus of this study. In order to navigate through the constantly shifting environment, iconic heritage tourist attractions typically follow a pattern of innovation waves fluctuating between periods of activity and periods of inertia as they seek to maintain their relevance to a contemporary audience. With each wave of innovation, operators of heritage attractions gauge their level of acceptable risk and shape the innovation accordingly. Innovation occurs within parameters dictated by contemporary forces prevalent within the environment. How heritage attractions achieve innovative outcomes is an issue for the operators of heritage attractions. Innovation is frequently slow and incremental, meaning it is almost invisible in the short term; therefore, a historical case study at a single heritage attraction, separated into three comparable and adjacent periods was used to identify innovation and its effects. Several types of innovation were identified; specifically product, process, position and paradigm innovations. The forces that drove and determined innovation at different times were also identified and a model developed which may be applicable to other heritage attractions in the future. This research makes several contributions to knowledge. First it is shown that the heritage product can be defined in terms of access. This may be physical, virtual, emotional and/or intellectual. Second, the research presents a new definition of the process that occurs during the co-production of the tourist experience product. Third, viewing the access product as a component of the tourist experience product provides a different lens for considering whether heritage attractions are innovative.

description: Abstract:
The play (originally premiered in Latin America but also staged at the National Drama Center in 2022) weaves between scenes from the classic text by William Shakespeare and the life of the group of young actors with Down syndrome rehearsing to perform Shakespeare. The action progresses by interpreting some of the scenes of Shakespeare's Hamlet but anchoring them in the existential problem of what it means to be a person with Down syndrome in society today. It also explores the implications of being an artist with cognitive disabilities and interpreting Shakespeare's most emblematic and "existential" character. Therefore, the great existential question of Hamlet's monologue appears repeatedly as a Leitmotif: "To be or not to be?" What does it mean to be for people who do not find spaces where they are recognised? Throughout the performance, each of the eight players is Hamlet at least once and wears the crown of the Prince of Denmark.

We derive an explicit expression for the probability distribution for the heat transferred to the particle. We find that the local minima in the potential yield divergent side bands in the heat distribution in addition to the divergent central peak. The position of the bands are determined by the potential gaps. We, moreover, determine the tails of the heat distribution.

description: Storing tabular data to balance storage and query efficiency is a long-standing research question in the database community. In this work, we argue and show that a novel DeepMapping abstraction, which relies on the impressive memorization capabilities of deep neural networks, can provide better storage cost, better latency, and better run-time memory footprint, all at the same time. Such unique properties may benefit a broad class of use cases in capacity-limited devices. Our proposed DeepMapping abstraction transforms a dataset into multiple key-value mappings and constructs a multi-tasking neural network model that outputs the corresponding values for a given input key. To deal with memorization errors, DeepMapping couples the learned neural network with a lightweight auxiliary data structure capable of correcting mistakes. The auxiliary structure design further enables DeepMapping to efficiently deal with insertions, deletions, and updates even without retraining the mapping. We propose a multi-task search strategy for selecting the hybrid DeepMapping structures (including model architecture and auxiliary structure) with a desirable trade-off among memorization capacity, size, and efficiency. Extensive experiments with a real-world dataset, synthetic and benchmark datasets, including TPC-H and TPC-DS, demonstrated that the DeepMapping approach can better balance the retrieving speed and compression ratio against several cutting-edge competitors.

description: Carotid-jugular fistulas are very rare lesions. They are usually acquired secondary to penetrating neck injuries oriatrogenic after insertion of jugular central lines. These lesions might be asymptomatic or present with palpable neckmass, audible thrill, tinnitus, headaches and even cardiac failure. Their management has radically changed fromopen surgical repair to endovascular treatment in the recent years, mostly using intravascular stents to disconnect thearterial-venous fistula. However, if this is not feasible alternative strategies should be sought obliterate the fistula.We present a 17 year old man that suffered a blast injury while being a bus passenger in a war conflict zone. He hadmultiple injuries including shrapnel wounds to the head and neck. He was airlifted in a delayed fashion to an outsidehospital for further treatment. A computed tomography of the neck was ordered prior to debridement of his woundswhich showed a large vascular lesion at the level of left skull base (Zone III). At arrival to our facility, the patientwas complaining of severe headache and tinnitus. A cerebral angiogram was performed that showed a high flow leftinternal carotid to jugular vein fistula, both anterograde and retrograde, with reverse filling of the intracranial venoussinuses. There was a complete occlusion of the intracranial left carotid at the level of the skull base. Due to theanticipated difficulty to cross from the cervical to the intracranial carotid and to avoid possible embolic complicationsof a stent placement, trapping of the fistulous connection was carried out. For that, the internal carotid was closedwith an Amplatz vascular Plug 4 and two coils (Ruby and Hydroframe) followed by a trans-circulation placementof a MVP to the left petrous carotid. His headache and tinnitus resolved after surgery and he was repatriated with nosymptoms soon after the procedure.

description: We compute analytically the small-scale temperature fluctuations of the cosmic microwave background from cosmic (super-)strings and study the dependence on the string intercommuting probability $P$. We develop an analytical model which describes the evolution of a string network and calculate the numbers of string segments and kinks in a horizon volume. Then we derive the probability distribution function (pdf) which takes account of finite angular resolution of observation. The resultant pdf consists of a Gaussian part due to frequent scatterings by long string segments and a non-Gaussian tail due to close encounters with kinks. The dispersion of the Gaussian part is reasonably consistent with that obtained by numerical simulations by Fraisse et al.. On the other hand, the non-Gaussian tail contains two phenomenological parameters which are determined by comparison with the numerical results for P=1. Extrapolating the pdf to the cases with $P<1$, we predict that the non-Gaussian feature is suppressed for small $P$.

description: The primordial power spectrum describes the initial perturbations in the Universe which eventually grew into the large-scale structure we observe today, and thereby provides an indirect probe of inflation or other structure-formation mechanisms. In this paper we will investigate the best scales the primordial power spectrum can be probed, in accordance with the knowledge about other cosmological parameters such as $Ω_{b}$, $Ω_{c}$, $Ω_Λ$, $h$ and $τ$. The aim is to find the most informative way of measuring the primordial power spectrum at different length scales, using different types of surveys and the information they provide for the desired cosmological parameters. We will find the optimal binning of the primordial power spectrum for this purpose, by making use of the Fisher matrix formalism. We will then find a statistically orthogonal basis for a set of cosmological parameters, mentioned above, and a set of bins of the primordial power spectrum to investigate the correlation between the two sets. For this purpose we make use of principal component analysis and Hermitian square root of the Fisher matrix. The surveys used in this project are Planck and SDSS(BRG), but the formalism can easily be extended to any windowed measurements of the perturbation spectrum.
Deformation theory of hot-pressing

description: The possible deformation behaviour of spheres in a compact has been theoretically analyzed and experimentally verified. The change in contact area radius 'a' relative to the particle radius R has been related to the bulk density and bulk strain for four possible modes of packing: simple cubic (Z = 6), orthorhombic (Z = 8), rhombohedral (Z = 12), and body-centered cubic (Z = 8). An equation relating the above parameters can be represented by D — D。= [formula omitted] D。(a/R)² for different types of packings, D and D。 being the densities at any a/R and at a/R = 0, respectively. It has been shown experimentally by deforming monosized lead spheres at room temperature, 50 and 100°C in a cylindrical die, that the overall deformation is similar to that of the orthorhombically packed spheres. A change in the coordination number Z during the deformation process was also observed and may partially account for the deviation from the theoretically predicted values. Similar experiments using sapphire and K-Monel spheres were also carried out in the temperature range 1570 - 1700°C and 800 - 1000°C respectively. The results showed that the deformation behaviour was very similar to that of the lead spheres. A study of the geometry of deformation revealed that most of the spheres deformed in a random manner, although individual colonies of orthorhombic, tetragonal and rhombohedral packings were observed. It was also observed that the deformed faces that were approximately perpendicular to the direction of pressing were about 2.2 times larger than those parallel to the direction of pressing. This observation has been subsequently used to modify the theoretical models. The particle rearrangement and plastic flow have been found to be the predominant mechanisms for the densification of lead, K-Monel, and sapphire spheres under the experimental conditions used in this investigation. The criterion for yielding of two hemispheres of the same material in contact was used to incorporate the yield strength in the basic density equation. This equation has been found to fit the data obtained during the hot-pressing of the spheres. It has been observed that the deformation of sapphire single crystal spheres takes place by a complex deformation process. The presence of the basal and prismatic slip has been identified in the spheres deformed at 1570 and 1700°C. Presence of cross slip is also confirmed by the optical and electron micrographs at these temperatures.

description: This In Brief outlines the role new mobile phone– based research techniques can play in addressing this information deficit. It details a pilot project using mobile phones to record and report data about accusations of witchcraft at funerals. The pilot is part of a growing body of work that uses mobile phones to collect and record data in environments that are otherwise difficult to reach, and for a wide range of purposes, including health, education, agriculture and development. The project also shares important features with conflict-mapping programs which use mobiles phones to track and map outbreaks of violence. However, this pilot is the first to apply these new research techniques to the problem of anti-witchcraft violence.

title: An Economic Analysis of Merchandising Fluid Milk in Utah
Creators: name: Wennergren, E. Boyd
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1956

description: The basic problem confronting the dairy industry today is one of utilizing its total fluid milk production. During recent years the industry has witnessed a general decrease in per capita consumption of dairy products while per capita production has remained fairly constant and in amounts approximating the average for the past 16 years (Table 2 ). As a result the dairy industry has produced a surplus of fluid milk and manufactured dairy products. The Federal Government, under its price support program, has been the ultimate recipient of these surpluses and now possesses huge warehouse stocks. The cost to the Federal Government and to the taxpayer has been great, resulting in an intense desire by both the Federal Government and the dairy industry to take steps to alleviate this condition. The following study is undertaken with the hope that the findings from it may provide the dairy industry with information which, in some small way, may contribute a partial solution to this problem.
title: Growth and Nutrition of Plants as Affected by Different Osmotic Concentrations of Calcium Chloride and Sodium Chloride in the Substrate
Creators: name: Khan, Mumtaz Ali

Year: 1956

description: Considerable experimental evidence supports the concept that the growth of plants generally decreases progressively as the salt concentration of the substrate increases, but certain relationships between plant and substrate are still not fully understood. The chemistry of salt toxicity to plants involves many interactions both as to the quantity and kind of ions presented to the roots and those accumulated in the plants. Many plant species have shown sensitivity to excess accumulation of specific salts frequently encountered in saline soils. Thus Eaton (1942), Wadleigh, Hayward, and Ayers (1951 ) have shown most of the fruit trees to be susceptible to injury as a result of the accumulation of chloride ion. Wadleigh, et al. (1951) have reported orchard grass to be sensitive to calcium salts. Recently, Brown, Wadleigh, and Hayward (1953) have found calcium chloride more toxic to some fruit trees than isosmotic levels of sodium chloride. These and other studies have indicated a greater influence of specific ions than of the osnotic pressure of the solution.

Plain packaging- can we do better than grisly images? : Effects of plain packaging and efficacy beliefs on smoking behavior and cognitions amongst individuals with high and low levels of education
Creators: name: Williams, AJ

description: This study sought to assess whether including efficacy messages alongside graphic health warning labels on cigarette packaging would reduce smoking behavior or increase the cognitive mediators of smoking (risk perceptions, self-efficacy and intentions to quit). This was based on the Extended Parallel Process Model, which states both risk perceptions and efficacy beliefs must be heightened in order to encourage behavior change (Witte, 1992). It was also assessed whether these effects would differ by level of education, as those with lower education often report lower self-efficacy in quitting (Siahpush et al., 2006). Using a randomized controlled trial with forty-six current smokers who had no initial intention to quit smoking, participants either smoked from the current packaging or the modified packaging for a period of three weeks. 2x3 ANOVAs were conducted on each of the hypotheses and found that the modified labels were capable of evoking risk perceptions but not self-efficacy. However, when education was included as a factor (in a 2x2x3 ANOVA) self-efficacy was heightened, but only for individuals with higher levels of education. This suggests that these particular labels may need further modification to be considered relevant for those with lower levels of education (Mead et al., 2016).
