Print media, public discourse, and the origins of schooling in Upper Canada, 1784--1832

description: The established research on the origins of the Ontario school system emphasizes the educational ideas of prominent public men who advocated for school reform in the mid-nineteenth century. In this research, scholars focus on official educational records and correspondence among the political and social elite. The initial educational legislation enacted by colonial leaders in Upper Canada is dismissed as largely irrelevant to the school movement of the mid-nineteenth century. This thesis broadens the analysis of the origins of the Ontario school system by shifting attention back to Upper Canada and by considering the ideas about schooling that were exchanged in a broader public sphere through colonial newspapers, published pamphlets, and petitions. By systematically analyzing the expanding print media of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, the educational history of Upper Canada can be seen from a vantage point broader than that of colonial elites or the well-known school promoters. One key conclusion of this study is that print media enabled the emergence of government-aided schooling as a central topic of discourse in Upper Canada. The movement for government-aided schooling in Upper Canada began in earnest during the first decades of the colony's existence. In other words, the intellectual roots of the school movement of the mid-nineteenth century took hold by the 1830s. Upper Canada was not an equal society, and the official political discourse on education, centralized in the colonial legislature, was a restricted discourse; however, through print media a broader range of participants from various corners of the colony took part in a public discourse concerning educational development. Throughout the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, an increasing number of inhabitants, although disconnected by geographic, social, and economic barriers, voiced desires for government-aided schooling that converged in the central meeting place of print media and impacted the official making of educational legislation. Despite varying opinions on the means and ends of government-aided schooling, there was widespread agreement about its need by the 1830s; the debate was no longer about whether government-aided schools were desirable, but rather about what specific kinds of schools would be established. It was this agreement that framed the policy debate among the school promoters of the mid-nineteenth century.

"Periodical Performance": The Editor Figure in Early Nineteenth-Century Literary Magazines

Subjects: subject: Literature, English.
subject: Mass Communications.

description: Long considered the literary representatives of the public sphere, British periodicals underwent significant changes throughout the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. Improved literacy rates and technological advancements in the production and distribution of print meant that the republic of letters, once a venue for discussions between gentlemen, was now more open to a larger and more diverse audience. This increase in potential readers left periodicals uncertain of the identity of their own readership, forcing them to create discourses that helped to define their readers and form them into distinctive audiences. This thesis examines the role that the editor figure played in the formation of readers for specific periodicals. Its focus is on how, both directly and indirectly, early to mid nineteenth-century literary magazines crafted distinctive figures of the editor through which they managed the pressures attendant on them as publications positioned between the popular, commercial market and the literary sphere. In particular, it examines the different ways that the discursive construction of an editor (an "editor figure") offered readers a personal relationship, which evoked aspects of the eighteenth-century public sphere, as an antidote to the expanding print market. Readers were thus socialized, brought into a relationship with a periodical through the editor figure, who acted as an intermediary between the market and the publication, a friendly face in an otherwise confusing world. The nature of a periodical's society, like the figure of its editor, varied, but the point was to lead readers to consider themselves not simply individual readers but part of a distinctive audience, gathered into a community through the guiding hand or personality of an editorial presence. Divided into four chapters, the thesis focuses on key sites in periodical culture in which an editor figure, constructed through direct commentary and editorial practices and techniques, defined readerly roles and relations in ways that both harnessed and counteracted the impact of the technological powers of print. Beginning with an analysis of the contrasting figures in John Scott's London Magazine and Blackwood's Edinburgh Magazine, the thesis then moves to the realm of cheap publications in a chapter on Charles Knight's Penny Magazine and the Chambers brothers' Chambers' Edinburgh Magazine. The thesis then concludes with a look at Leigh Hunt, who activated the rhetoric of intimacy he had established over the course of a long career as an editor when he himself ventured into the sphere of cheap publication with his London Journal.

The Development of a Novel Photolabile Protecting Group based on Xanthone Acetic Acid Photodecarboxylation for Corneal Drug Delivery
Creators: name: Blake, Jessie A
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 2010
Subjects: subject: Chemistry, Organic.

description: This thesis describes the development of a new photolabile protecting group. It spans the detailed characterisation of the photochemical mechanism to the application of this group towards a novel drug delivery method. Photolabile protecting groups (PPGs) are essentially molecules (usually organic) that can be attached to another molecule of interest (often termed the 'effector') in a way that masks the activity of this second molecule. Upon excitation, the effector is released through a photochemical reaction allowing the rapid and controlled introduction of a high effector concentration. PPGs have been used in a wide variety of applications where either spatial or temporal control is desired. These include numerous dynamic biological studies, photolithography, and solid state synthesis to name a few. The photochemical mechanism that forms the basis of our new PPG is the photodecarboxylation of 2-xanthone acetic acid. Using a number of steady state and time resolved techniques, we have established that decarboxylation proceeds from the singlet excited state of 2- and 4-xanthone acetic acids (2-XAA and 4-XAA) yielding a short-lived carbanion intermediate. Interestingly, in a stark example of the ortho-meta effect, 3-xanthone acetic acid (3-XAA) is photostable. The carbanion generated from either 2- or 4-XAA is formed efficiently and is subsequently protonated very rapidly (tau < 20 ns) in aqueous solution. With proper substitution, this reactive carbanion can be harnessed to eliminate anionic leaving groups on the subnanosecond timescale. Both the release rate and efficiency of our PPGs represent a significant improvement over conventional PPGs. Additionally, the photochemistry of release is remarkably clean and the UVA absorption of the xanthone chromophore is quite high. For this reason, we have applied our new PPG to the development of a novel drug delivery method based on photorelease, a field that has not yet been greatly explored. More specifically, we have demonstrated the release of acyclovir, an antiviral commonly used for the treatment of ocular herpes simplex virus (HSV-1). We have also shown the ability of our PPG-acyclovir conjugate to suppress viral proliferation in corneal cells upon UVA irradiation.

description: Aim Extreme heat events caused by climate change continue to increase in frequency, duration, and intensity. People living in cities in particular are exposed to heat as a result of the urban heat island efect. Although negative efects can be mitigated by heat health action plans (HHAPs), it remains unknown how many German cities have implemented such plans or other measures to reduce the health risks from heat. Therefore, this study surveyed the status of planned or published HHAPs and measures in German cities. Subject and methods Approximately 10% of German cities with the greatest population density were sampled for the study (n = 70 cities). A frequency analysis of city concepts and city webpages was conducted to determine whether cities have already introduced concepts for climate adaptation, climate protection or an HHAP, and which measures are planned in detail. Results Fifty-one cities have implemented measures to protect health from heat events. Forty-one cities integrated such measures into concepts, and only one city formulated an HHAP. Large cities in particular published measures. Long-term measures proved most common, for example, improved building envelope insulation and urban greening. Other than advice on individual behavior, hardly any acute heat health measures are being taken. Quelle: © The Author(s) 2023

Year: 2024

description: This study explored the recruitment process in a technology start-up for consistency with established models, and the role entrepreneurial passion had played in attracting team members. Recruitment incidents were identified through interviews with the founders and members of the core team and analysed both against existing models and for emerging themes. Passion for the technology vision was found to be instrumental in attracting early participation on a part-time, casual basis, but in making serious commitment to the venture, shared values of equity and trust, together with the entrepreneur's passion and credibility, creating conviction that the vision was achievable, emerged as the decisive factors.

description: Diabetes, as one of the major diseases in industrial countries, affects over 350 million people worldwide. Type 1 (T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) are the most common forms with both types having invariable genetic influence. It is accepted that a subset of all diabetes patients, generally estimated to account for 1–2% of all diabetic cases, is attributed to mutations in single genes. As only a subset of these genes has been identified and fully characterized, there is a dramatic need to understand the pathophysiological impact of genetic determinants on β-cell function and pancreatic development but also on cell replacement therapies. Pluripotent stem cells differentiated along the pancreatic lineage provide a valuable research platform to study such genes. This review summarizes current perspectives in applying this platform to study monogenic diabetes variants.
Analysis of the Hydrodynamic Effects of Gas Permeation in a Pilot-Scale Fluidized Bed Membrane Reactor

description: This study experimentally investigates the effects of gas extraction/addition, via multiple vertical membrane panels, on the hydrodynamics in different regions of a pilot-scale gas fluidized bed membrane reactor (FBMR), based on differential pressure signals measured at different vertical bed sections at high temperature. In a bed section where membrane panels were installed and activated, the extraction of gas caused the average bubble size to increase, but decreased the number of small- and medium-sized bubbles. This effect of gas extraction penetrated into bed sections above the active membrane panel, but attenuated with increasing distance away from the extraction location. The attenuation rate was much faster in FBMR with lower bed voidage, mainly due to the large decrease of the drag force exerted by gas extraction on fluidizing gas in a denser bed. With the same inlet gas velocity, gas addition favored the growth of bubbles, especially in the upper bed sections compared with operation without gas permeation. The increase of the effective fluidizing velocity was the major reason for the increase of the bubble size during gas addition. These findings preliminarily suggest that membrane units should not be installed in or below fast-reacting zones in a scale-up FBMR, and operation with a lower bed voidage is preferable to avoid the formation of large bubbles enhanced by gas extraction.

description: Quality management practices in manufacturing and logistics have led to proven results for organisations with respect to competitiveness and portability. At the same time, business process management not only addresses a comprehensive functional scope including the ever more important administrative functions and business services, but also contributes to realising potentials (e.g. in the field of process automation) through extensive use of information technology. Integrating quality management with business process management concepts is thus very promising from a business perspective. The evolution of a clear understanding of business process quality constitutes a fundamental prerequisite for progress in this field as only a concise definition will point out the issues that need to be addressed in more detailed research. This report aims at discussing basic considerations in this respect. We look into requirements to be posed towards a definition of business process quality, discuss various basic quality views and their fit with business process management, provide a fundamental if not yet practically applicable business process quality definition, and examine related aspects of business processes as well as related work. While this approach will not lead to a finally applicable definition of business process quality, its contribution will lie in entering into a more systematic discussion to encompass the wide array of existing results that can be correlated with business process quality and giving directions for future research.

description: We present a novel hybrid approach for leaf surface fitting that combines Clough-Tocher (CT) and radial basis function (RBF) methods to achieve a surface with a continuously turning normal. The hybrid CT-RBF method is shown to give good representations of a Frangipani leaf and an Anthurium leaf. The issues reported here include: the selection of points from the leaf data set; choice of RBF and suitable width parameter; the use of local or global RBF interpolates; visualization of the leaf model. The development of the algorithm has been made to facilitate the understanding of leaf surface properties, such as the path of droplets and nutrient and pesticide deposition. The method reported is generally applicable to scattered data and has the potential for application to the numerical solution of partial differential equations.

description: Due to their extreme volume expansion, Si/C-composites suffer from fracture or delamination and consequent capacity fading during the Li-ion cell operation. One approach to reduce the electrical contact loss and improve the performance is the application of mechanical pressure on the cell. Therefore, a comprehensive aging study of Si/C|NMC811 pouch cells is conducted with cells in different compression configurations as uncompressed and under flexible and fixed compression at pressure levels in the range of 0.08 MPa, 0.42 MPa, and 0.84 MPa. In-situ swelling measurements by dilation as well as in-operando mapping of the pressure distribution on the cell surfaces reveal the positive influence of the low pressure fixed and the middle pressure flexible compression on the cycle life. For the heavily fixed compressed cells, an inhomogeneous pressure distribution and occurring pressure hot -spots close to the cell current collectors of up to 5.2 MPa are found. An extensive post-mortem analysis including SEM cross-sectioning and EIS measurements of the aged anodes and the separator confirms cell failure by different aging mechanisms depending on the type of compression. Aging experiments of Si/C|NMC811 cylindrical 18650-cells show local differences along the jelly roll which are explained by the help of the pouch cell results.

Localization of anthracyclines in drug resistant human MCF-7 breast cancer cells

Subjects: subject: Biology, Cell.

description: Multidrug resistance (MDR) commonly occurs during the treatment of cancer. Current research has focused mostly on the role of drug transporters, as the main mechanism of MDR; however, few have demonstrated a definite link between the expression or function of drug transporters and MDR in cancer patients. Anthracyclines such as doxorubicin and epirubicin, autofluoresce and can be monitored by confocal microscopy. Two of the four resistant cell fines generated in our lab: the MCF-7EPI cells and to some extent MCF-7 DOX cells, exhibit a localization defect, whereby epirubicin is localized primarily in the cytoplasm rather than the nucleus. This drug localization defect temporally correlated with the onset of drug-resistance during selection for drug resistance in these cell lines. Consistent with the possible sequestration of drugs into acidic vesicles, acridine orange staining has revealed the presence of aggregates of acidified vesicles in the perinuclear region of MCF-7EPI cells. However, co-localization experiments using a number of intracellular organelle markers determined that epirubicin was localized to lysosomes and not consistently to acidic vesicles. An inhibitor of vacuolar H+ ATPase, was unable to restore the localization of epirubicin to the nucleus. Immunofluorescence using an ABCB1 antibody revealed the localization of ABCB1 predominantly in the plasma membrane and to some extent in the perinuclear region of MCF-7EPI cells. Nevertheless, inhibitors of this transporter failed to restore localization of epirubicin to the nucleus. Taken together, these findings strongly suggest that the acquisition of epirubicin resistance in breast tumour cells may involve the P-glycoprotein independent sequestration of drug into lysosomes. These lysosomes need not be acidic, nor does the removal of acid vesicles by inhibition of vacuolar H+ ATPases block the sequestration of drug into lysosomes.

Post-transcriptional regulation of DNA Damage Binding protein 2 and the identification of a novel mRNA stability determinant
Creators: name: Melanson, Brian D
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 2010
Subjects: subject: Biology, Molecular.

description: UV light is a potent inducer of the p53 tumour suppressor, a transcription factor that positively regulates a large number of UV-responsive transcripts. However, UV light also induces RNA polymerase-blocking DNA lesions in a stochastic manner. This poses a challenge to the coordinated regulation of UV-responsive gene expression. We previously reported a UV dose-dependent shift in the spectrum ofp53 induced target genes towards smaller genes with fewer and smaller introns. Here, we report that the DDB2 transcript is induced more strongly than other similar sized p53 target genes (FAS or MDM2) following UV exposure. The preferential induction ofDDB2 mRNA is not due to the expression of a cryptic internal promoter. Instead, the DDB2 transcript was found to be unstable prior to UV exposure and its half-life was increased significantly in a UV dose-dependent manner. UV light did not affect the stability of the FAS or MDM2 mRNAs. Cis-acting elements within the 3'UTR of transiently expressed transcripts often target labile mRNAs for rapid degradation. The DDB2 3'UTR induced a rapid increase in mRNA turnover of an EGFP reporter gene that was also observed at the protein level. Using this reporter system, we localized a destabilizing element within a 49 nucleotide region, and have termed this the 3'UTR DDB2 destabilizing element (3 'DDE). Structural analysis of the 3'DDE predicted the presence of distinct structural features. Mutational analysis of these structures further isolated a minimal 14nt region that is required to elicit rapid mRNA turnover. Given the role ofDDB2 in nucleotide excision repair, we suggest that its post-transcriptional regulation contributes to recovery from UV-induced DNA damage. In addition to DDB2, we found that the mRNA ofp53 target-genes are generally short-lived. We propose that this phenomenon has evolved as a method to keep p53-mediated pro-apoptotic and anti-survival stress responses in check.

description: Screening of a protein kinase inhibitor library identified SB431542, targeting activin receptor-like kinase 5 (ALK5), as a compound interfering with SARS-CoV-2 replication. Since ALK5 is implicated in transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) signaling and regulation of the cellular endoprotease furin, we pursued this research to clarify the role of this protein kinase for SARS-CoV-2 infection. We show that TGF-β1 induces the expression of furin in a broad spectrum of cells including Huh-7 and Calu-3 that are permissive for SARS-CoV-2. The inhibition of ALK5 by incubation with SB431542 revealed a dose-dependent downregulation of both basal and TGF-β1 induced furin expression. Furthermore, we demonstrate that the ALK5 inhibitors SB431542 and Vactosertib negatively affect the proteolytic processing of the SARS-CoV-2 Spike protein and significantly reduce spike-mediated cell–cell fusion. This correlated with an inhibitory effect of ALK5 inhibition on the production of infectious SARS-CoV-2. Altogether, our study shows that interference with ALK5 signaling attenuates SARS-CoV-2 infectivity and cell–cell spread via downregulation of furin which is most pronounced upon TGF-β stimulation. Since a TGF-β dominated cytokine storm is a hallmark of severe COVID-19, ALK5 inhibitors undergoing clinical trials might represent a potential therapy option for COVID-19.

description: This work deals with the study of interaction of pions in complex nuclei. The cross sections for inelastic interactions of positive pions with emulsion nuclei have been measured at various pion energies in the (3,3) resonance energy region. The results-have been interpreted in terms of pion-nucleon interaction cross section through isobar formation, using the optical model formalism. Good agreements have been obtained between the experimental and calculated results. The results indicate that the maximum in cross section occurs at about 160 MeV pion incident energy, which is less than the energy at which the (3,3) resonance occurs. This shift in the position of the maximum cross section is attributed to the optical model potential seen by the pion inside the nucleus. Other available experimental data of positive pion interaction cross sections with complex nuclei have been summarized and interpreted successfully by using our model. This model has also been used to obtain the fraction of pions absorbed inside the nucleus in antiproton annihilation. When an antiproton annihilates on a nucleon a number of pions are produced. If, however, the annihilation takes place inside the nucleus, a fraction of pions is absorbed before coming out of the nucleus. The available experimental data on pion multiplicities in T annihilation with hydrogen and emulsion nuclei are compared to obtain the absorption fraction. The results have good agreements with the calculated values in the (3)3) resonance region. The pion-nucleus optical model potential used for our calculation has been obtained on the basis of the theory of Frank-Gammel and Watson in conjunction with the "effective-range" theory of Chew and Low. Many body effects have been taken into account by applying the Pauli exclusion principle to the intermediate state of the nucleon. It has been shown that in the nucleus the peak of the (3,3) resonance in pion-nucleon scattering is considerably reduced and its position shifts towards higher energy. To investigate the mechanism of absorption of pions in complex nuclei, a detailed analysis of the energetic protons produced in the pion induced emulsion stars have been carried out. The stars were produced by (a) direct interaction of 70 MeV positive pions and (b) p¯ annihilation in emulsion. In the latter case, annihilates to produce pions which in turn interact with other nucleons in the nucleus. The absorption of a pion takes place on a pair of nucleons to emit two energetic nucleons. The distributions of energy and opening angles of the energetic proton pairs as well as the energy distribution of the individual energetic protons have been measured. The results are compared with the results obtained from Monte Carlo calculations.

Analytic immersions of parabolic Riemann surfaces.
Creators: name: Vincent, Paul André.
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 1967
Subjects: subject: Mathematics.

description: Under conformal equivalence the set of all parabolic Riemann surfaces is divided into equivalence classes. Since a conformal equivalence is an analytic immersion, then the study of analytic immersions between all pairs of parabolic Riemann surfaces reduces to the study of immersions between all equivalence classes by representatives. The complex plane, the "cylinder", and the set of all torii modulo conformal equivalence form a useful set of representatives which enables us to determine easily whether analytic immersions exist or not. Where they do exist the use of the fiber map theorem permits us to give these analytic immersions as analytic immersions between complex planes. In particular, in the case of a pair of torii, we have been able to find a necessary and sufficient criterion to determine the existence of analytic immersions. Furthermore if there exist any then we can determine all immersions.

description: The ever-increasing amount of data generated from experiments and simulations in engineering sciences is relying more and more on data science applications to generate new knowledge. Comprehensive metadata descriptions and a suitable research data infrastructure are essential prerequisites for these tasks. Experimental tribology, in particular, presents some unique challenges in this regard due to the interdisciplinary nature of the field and the lack of existing standards. In this work, we demonstrate the versatility of the open source research data infrastructure Kadi4Mat by managing and producing FAIR tribological data. As a showcase example, a tribological experiment is conducted by an experimental group with a focus on comprehensiveness. The result is a FAIR data package containing all produced data as well as machine- and user-readable metadata. The close collaboration between tribologists and software developers shows a practical bottom-up approach and how such infrastructures are an essential part of our FAIR digital future.

Mind-wandering rates fluctuate across the day: evidence from an experience-sampling study

description: Previous research has demonstrated reliable fluctuations in attentional processes during the course of the day. Everyday life experience sampling, during which participants respond to “probes” delivered at random intervals throughout the day on their mobile devices, is an effective tool for capturing such diurnal fluctuations in a naturalistic way. The existence of diurnal fluctuations in the case of mind-wandering, however, has not been examined to date. We did so in two studies. In the first study, we employed everyday experience sampling to obtain self-reports from 146 university students who rated the degree of free movement in their thoughts multiple times per day over five days. These time course data were analyzed using multilevel modelling. Freely moving thought was found to fluctuate reliably over the course of the day, with lower ratings reported in the early morning and afternoon and higher ratings around midday and evening. In the second study, we replicated these effects with a reanalysis of data from a past everyday experience-sampling study. We also demonstrated differences in parameter values for the models representing freely moving thought and two common conceptualizations of mind-wandering: task-unrelated thought and stimulus-independent thought. Taken together, the present results establish and replicate a complex pattern of change over the course of the day in how freely thought moves, while also providing further evidence that freedom of movement is dissociable from other dimensions of thought such as its task-relatedness and stimulus-dependence. Future research should focus on probing possible mechanisms behind circadian fluctuations of thought dynamics.

description: This paper is submitted for consideration as part of theme 10, 'social entrepreneurship'. Its primary focus is to describe an attempt to bridge the perceptual gap between (a) those societal engineers who wish to pursue their objectives in a more entrepreneurial manner; and (b) those entrepreneurial individuals who wish to use their skills to 'make a difference' in society. The subject project has been conceived as a three part process, stretching over an eighteen month period, and the paper to be presented in February 2006 will report on the background and history of the project, and on the outcomes of stage one of the research. As such, it is very much a work in progress, and should be evaluated as such. In this section, the broad aim and specific goals of the project are identified, and in the next the research methods are briefly described. Results are as yet unknown, and are therefore discussed in outline only.

description: Die Umweltprobenbank des Bundes sammelt standardisiert Human- und Umweltproben und lagert diese veränderungsfrei für zukünftige Untersuchungen. Die große Auswahl an unterschiedlichen Matrizes aus verschiedenen Probenahmegebieten ermöglicht einen Überblick über die Belastungssituation des Menschen und seiner Umwelt. Die Schadstoffanalytik erfolgt sowohl im direkten Anschluss an die Probenahme (Real-Time-Monitoring) als auch in retrospektiven Untersuchungen an den eingelagerten Proben. Die hohe Standardisierung ermöglicht die Reproduzier- und Vergleichbarkeit der gesammelten Proben und lässt so eine Aussage über die zeitliche Veränderung der Belastungen zu. Die Umweltprobenbank des Bundes ist ein exzellentes Werkzeug für das Monitoring der Schadstoffbelastungen der Umwelt und des Menschen. Geringe zeitliche oder marginale regionale Unterschiede an Schadstoffkonzentrationen sind erfassbar, da die hierzu notwendigen Analysen standardisierter Umwelt- und Humanproben aus unterschiedlichen Jahren und Regionen zum gleichen Zeitpunkt durchgeführt werden können. Die Langzeitbeobachtung von Schadstoffbelastungen in Umwelt- und Humanproben ist eine wichtige Grundlage für gesetzliche Regulierungen von Chemikalien und deren Erfolgskontrolle. Damit ist die Umweltprobenbank des Bundes ein essenzielles Instrument des umweltbezogenen Gesundheitsschutzes in Deutschland. Quelle: http://www.ecomed-medizin.de
