“Morals, Lobbying, and Federalism Walk into a Bar...”: The Anti-Saloon League, Legal Change, and National Prohibition
Creators: name: Komula, Andrew M,.

Subjects: subject: National Prohibition

subject: Lobbying
subject: Constitutional Amendment

description: A century ago, the federal government and the many states became intertwined in the pursuit of national Prohibition. Prohibition also represented a literal, fundamental change to the Constitution. The Eighteenth Amendment forbade an individual behavior under the pretext of economic regulation and set out to destroy the industries and institutions associated with indulging that behavior. Moreover, it presented a moment when the powers between state and federal government were not neatly divisible but rather quite messily intertwined. Why is it that not all reform movements turned to a constitutional amendment? There needs to be a greater exploration of the casual mechanisms by which Prohibition became not only a national issue but a national issue which warranted a constitutional amendment—an inherently lofty policy change. The Anti-Saloon League was the mechanism by which Prohibition was kept on legislative agendas at both the federal and state level, and it was the reason why legislators felt compelled to consider such radical policy goals. These efforts, navigating the stringency of the Article V process, made the Eighteenth Amendment possible.

description: Ausstellung der künstlerischen Arbeiten zur Magisterprüfung im Fach Kunstpädagogik von Faezeh Bergk-Golshan in der Universitätsbibliothek Giessen, Otto-Behaghel-Str. 8, vom 15. Dezember 2005 bis Ende Januar 2006. Faezeh Bergk-Golshan verwendet mehrere Ausdrucksformen: Malerei, Zeichnungen und Skulpturen. Neun großformatige Tafelbilder auf blauem Hintergrund umrahmen die frei im Raum angeordnete Skulpturengruppe. In lebensgroßen Darstellungen drücken rhythmisch-dynamische Frauengestalten die körperlichen Verformungen in Bewegung aus. Die im Mittelpunkt stehende aufrechte Frauenskulptur wird umgeben von kauernden, in sich geschlossenen weiblichen Körpern und den dazugehörenden skizzenhaften Zeichnungen auf Papierbändern. Die menschlichen Figuren sind auf ihre elementare Körperlichkeit reduziert. Ergänzt werden die Frauengestalten durch drei weibliche Büsten, die als Selbstbildnisse in Bezug stehen. Die in sparsamen gradlinigen Kompositionen gestalteten Werke vermitteln einen Sinn für das Einzigartige und das Psychische des menschlichen Körpers in der Beziehung zur Komplexität des Raumes. Zweite Werkgruppe: abstrakte Gemälde mit spiralförmig, zyklischen Gestaltungsformen (Pigmentfarben mit Acrylbindemittel)

description: Forming a three dimensional view of the Universe is a long-standing goal of astronomical observations, and one that becomes increasingly difficult at high redshift. In this paper we discuss how tomography of the intergalactic medium (IGM) at $z\simeq 2.5$ can be used to estimate the redshifts of massive galaxies in a large volume of the Universe based on spectra of galaxies in their background. Our method is based on the fact that hierarchical structure formation leads to a strong dependence of the halo density on large-scale environment. A map of the latter can thus be used to refine our knowledge of the redshifts of halos and the galaxies and AGN which they host. We show that tomographic maps of the IGM at a resolution of $2.5\,h^{-1}$Mpc can determine the redshifts of more than 90 per cent of massive galaxies with redshift uncertainty $Δz/(1+z)=0.01$. Higher resolution maps allow such redshift estimation for lower mass galaxies and halos.

Assessment of Prevalence of musculoskeletal disorder, health seeking behavior and associated factors among taxi drivers in Addis Ababa,Ethiopia
Creators: name: Taddese, Melese
Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2019

description: Background: Musculoskeletal disorders are widespread in many countries around the world. Transport workers have been found to be at high risk of developing work related musculoskeletal disorders (WRMSDs). Objective:The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of musculoskeletal disorders, health seeking behavior and associated factors among Taxi drivers in Addis Ababa. Methods and Materials: Community based cross sectional design was under taken among taxi drivers in Addis Ababa using Nordic MSD questionnaire. Then the data was collected through face to face interview by 4 data collectors. The collected data was checked for its completeness and entered in to Epi info7 then exported to SPSS ver. 21, cleaned and both descriptive and logistic regression analysis were done. Results: From the total of study subjects, 371participants were involved in this study with 95.9% of response rate. The prevalence of musculoskeletal disorder among taxi drivers in Addis Ababa during the last 12 months and the last seven days were 55% and 29% respectively. The low back pain and shoulder were the most pain sites in the past 12 months d by accounting 53.6% and 31% respectively. Majority of study participants were not interested to take early treatment of MSD until it gets worse. The identified risk factors include, Driving Experiences >10yrs [AOR:3.01,95%C.I. (2.08, 28.31)], bending/twisting frequently[AOR:1.673,95%C.I. (1.52, 8.53)], sitting for a longer time[AOR:2.79,95%C.I. (2.30, 9.03)], Not comfortable Seat design of taxi [AOR:2.45,95%C.I.(2.18,17.10)], Not performing regular physical exercises[AOR:2.17,95%C.I. (2.9, 11.68)]. Conclusion and recommendation:This study found a high prevalence of musculoskeletal pain among taxi drivers with low back the most common site of the pain. The longer the years of driving experience the greater the chances of developing musculoskeletal disorder. Majority of them were not interested to take early treatment of MSD. Therefore, these findings call for awareness creation training for drivers on how to avoid or reduce the risk factors such as frequent bending/twisting, prolonged sitting, seat design of taxi and physical exercises.

Competing orders, the Wess-Zumino-Witten term, and spin liquids

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2022
Subjects: subject: Strongly Correlated Electrons (cond-mat.str-el)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: In this paper, we demonstrate that in frustrated magnets when several conventional (i.e., symmetry-breaking) orders compete, and are "intertwined" by a Wess-Zumino-Witten (WZW) term, the possibility of spin liquid arises. The resulting spin liquid could have excitations which carry fractional spins and obey non-trivial self/mutual statistics. As a concrete example, we consider the case where the competing orders are the Néel and valence-bond solid (VBS) order on square lattice. Examining different scenarios of vortex condensation from the VBS side, we show that the intermediate phases, including spin liquids, between the Néel and VBS order always break certain symmetry. Remarkably, our starting theory, without fractionalized particles (partons) and guage field, predicts results agreeing with those derived from a parton theory. This suggests that the missing link between the Ginzberg-Landau-Wilson action of competing order and the physics of spin liquid is the WZW term.
Assessment of knowledge and Attitude of patients' towards privacy At tertiary care level Hospital; Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.

Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2014

description: Patients have a right to privacy that should not be violated without informed consent. Patient privacy and confidentiality in health care is essential, the right of privacy protects a patient from unwanted intrusions into his/her life and into information about his health, illness, and treatment. Objective:- To assess Knowledge and Attitude of patients' towards privacy at Tikur Anbessa specialized Hospital. Methods:- A cross sectional descriptive study was conducted at Tikur Anbessa Specialized Hospital, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, from may- June 2013. A total number of 422 adult patients were approached from adult patients who were admitted in medical, surgical and gynecological wards of Tikur Anbessa specialized Hospital. Results:- Among the respondents 205 (48.6%) heard about privacy. Four hundred (94.8%) patients were comfortable with nurses and helpers sharing their information than their party, 290 (68.7%) and other patients in the same room, 135 (32%). 237 (56.2%) of patients did not want their medical information to be made available to other official people outside the consultation. A total of 368 (87.2%) patients need informed consent before their data was shared. Conclusion:- The findings demonstrated that patients had little personal and information privacy within the hospital, even if the Government has advocated that patients should be more empowered and be involved in the planning of their own care. Awareness creation about privacy should be enhanced through different medias and practiced by health care providers. Key words: Knowledge, Attitude.
Dispersion by pulsars, magnetars, fast radio bursts and massive electromagnetism at very low radio frequencies

description: Our understanding of the universe relies mostly on electromagnetism. As photons are the messengers, fundamental physics is concerned in testing their properties. Photon mass upper limits have been earlier set through pulsar observations, but new investigations are offered by the excess of dispersion measure (DM) sometimes observed with pulsar and magnetar data at low frequencies, or with the fast radio bursts (FRBs), of yet unknown origin. Arguments for the excess of DM do not reach a consensus, but are not mutually exclusive. Thus, we remind that for massive electromagnetism, dispersion goes as the inverse of the frequency squared. Thereby, new avenues are offered also by the recently operating ground observatories in 10-80 MHz domain and by the proposed Orbiting Low Frequency Antennas for Radio astronomy (OLFAR). The latter acts as a large aperture dish by employing a swarm of nano-satellites observing the sky for the first time in the 0.1 - 15 MHz spectrum. The swarm must be deployed sufficiently away from the ionosphere to avoid distortions especially during the solar maxima, terrestrial interference and offer stable conditions for calibration during observations.

Evolution of magnetic fields in cosmic string wakes

description: We study the evolution of magnetic fields in cosmic string wakes in a plasma with a low resistivity. The initial magnetic field in the wake is modelled on the magnetic fields that are generated by the motion of particles around cosmic strings. The plasma is characterized by a high beta value. We find multiple shock like structures developing in the wake of the string. We study the detailed structure of the shocks formed and the evolution of the magnetic field in the shock using a 2-D magnetohydrodynamic simulation. As expected, the development of the magnetic field does not depend on the $β$ value. Our results show that instead of a singe uniform shock forming behind the cosmic string we have multiple shocks forming at short time intervals behind the string. The presence of multiple shocks will definitely affect the observational signatures of cosmic string wakes as these signatures depend upon the temperature fluctuations generated by the shock. We also find that as the shock moves away, the residual magnetic field left behind reconnects and dissipates rapidly. The magnetic field around the string is thus very localized. We find that magnetic field reconnections take place in cosmic string wakes. This leads to the decrease of the magnetic field in the post shock region.

Consistent Condom use and Associated Factors among People Living with HIV AIDS Who are on Art in Hosanna Town, Ethiopia
Creators: name: Kebede, Tenaye
Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2014

description: Background: The advent of antiretroviral treatment has contributed a lot in decline of HIV AIDS related morbidity and mortality. While ART enables people living with HIV to regain their sexual capability, new challenges to prevent HIV transmission to sero discordant partner and reinfection with new drug resistant virus have risen. Objectives: To assess magnitude and factors associated with consistent condom use among People Living with HIV/AIDS who are on HAART in health institutions of Hosanna town. Methods: Mixed methods research was conducted. The quantitative institutions based cross sectional design was followed by a qualitative in-depth interview. Using systematic random sampling method 394 individuals were selected and six in-depth interviews with PLWHA on ART coupled with three in-depth interviews with ART counselor were held using theoretical sampling. A structured pretested questionnaire and interview guide were used. EPI info, SPSS and open code softwares were used for analysis. Descriptive statistics, binary and multiple logistic regressions were computed. Results: Consistent condom use among sexually active ART clients was 51.2 %( 95% CI: 46.3, 56.1). Respondents who have been on ART for 12 to 24 months [AOR=0.26:95% CI 0.07, 0.93] and perceived that ART can reduce HIV transmission [AOR=0.18:95% CI 0.09, 0.35] were less likely to use condom consistently. Where as partner status being negative [AOR=2.45:95% CI 1.14, 5.35] was more likely to use condom. Qualitative findings also show that low risk perception to HIV, feeling of invulnerability and non disclosure of HIV status to maintain relationship influence consistent condom use among ART attendees. Conclusion and recommendation: Consistent condom use among ART attendees was low. Perception that ART can reduce HIV transmission, duration of ART and partner status was predictors for consistent condom use. The study highlighted the need for ART programs to include follow up counseling that emphasize on consistent condom use with all partners irrespective of partner status, serostatus disclosure, partner testing and treatment optimisms

description: For data sets populated by a very well modeled process and by another process of unknown probability density function (PDF), a desired feature when manipulating the fraction of the unknown process (either for enhancing it or suppressing it) consists in avoiding to modify the kinematic distributions of the well modeled one. A bootstrap technique is used to identify sub-samples rich in the well modeled process, and classify each event according to the frequency of it being part of such sub-samples. Comparisons with general MVA algorithms will be shown, as well as a study of the asymptotic properties of the method, making use of a public domain data set that models a typical search for new physics as performed at hadronic colliders such as the Large Hadron Collider (LHC).

description: Polarization of a vortex state fermion has rich structure due to the nontrivial momentum distribution of wave function. This larger freedom provides an unique opportunity to prepare fermions in exotic polarized states, which do not exist for plane-wave state fermions. Based on the so called spin-orbit state which was studied both theoretically and experimentally, we put forward a peculiar vortex muon whose polarization exhibits $Z_n$ symmetry and study its decay. We investigate the azimuthal distribution of the emitted electrons and find that it exhibits the same symmetry ($Z_n$) as the initial state.

description: High drive current is a critical performance parameter in semiconductor devices for high-speed, low-power logic applications or high-efficiency, high-power, high-speed radio frequency (RF) analog applications. In this work, we demonstrate an In2O3 transistor grown by atomic layer deposition (ALD) at back-end-of-line (BEOL) compatible temperatures with a record high drain current exceeding 10 A/mm, the performance of which is 2-3 times better than all known transistors with semiconductor channels. A record high transconductance of 4 S/mm is also achieved among all transistors with a planar structure. It is found that a high carrier density and high electron velocity both contribute to this remarkably high on-state performance in ALD In2O3 transistors, which is made possible by the high-quality oxide/oxide interface, the metal-like charge-neutrality-level (CNL) alignment, and the high band velocities induced by the low density-of-state (DOS). Experimental Hall, I-V and split C-V measurements at room temperature confirm a high carrier density up to 6-7*10^13 /cm2 and a high velocity of about 10^7 cm/s. Ultra-thin oxide semiconductors, with a CNL located deep inside the conduction band, represent a promising new direction for the search of alternative channel materials for high-performance semiconductor devices.
Green-Kubo approach to the average swim speed in active Brownian systems

description: We develop an exact Green-Kubo formula relating nonequilibrium averages in systems of interacting active Brownian particles to equilibrium time-correlation functions. The method is applied to calculate the density-dependent average swim speed, which is a key quantity entering coarse grained theories of active matter. The average swim speed is determined by integrating the equilibrium autocorrelation function of the interaction force acting on a tagged particle. Analytical results are validated using Brownian dynamics simulations.

description: We explore a one parameter $ζ$-deformation of the quantum-mechanical Sine-Gordon and Double-Well potentials which we call the Double Sine-Gordon (DSG) and the Tilted Double Well (TDW), respectively. In these systems, for positive integer values of $ζ$, the lowest $ζ$ states turn out to be exactly solvable for DSG - a feature known as Quasi-Exact-Solvability (QES) - and solvable to all orders in perturbation theory for TDW. For DSG such states do not show any instanton-like dependence on the coupling constant, although the action has real saddles. On the other hand, although it has no real saddles, the TDW admits all-orders perturbative states that are not normalizable, and hence, requires a non-perturbative energy shift. Both of these puzzles are solved by including complex saddles. We show that the convergence is dictated by the quantization of the hidden topological angle. Further, we argue that the QES systems can be linked to the exact cancellation of real and complex non-perturbative saddles to all orders in the semi-classical expansion. We also show that the entire resurgence structure remains encoded in the analytic properties of the $ζ$-deformation, even though exactly at integer values of $ζ$ the mechanism of resurgence is obscured by the lack of ambiguity in both the Borel sum of the perturbation theory as well as the non-perturbative contributions. In this way, all of the characteristics of resurgence remains even when its role seems to vanish, much like the lingering grin of the Cheshire Cat. We also show that the perturbative series is Self-resurgent -a feature by which there is a one-to-one relation between the early terms of the perturbative expansion and the late terms of the same expansion -which is intimately connected with the Dunne-Ünsal relation. We explicitly verify that this is indeed the case.

description: We study the magnetic and electronic phases of a 1D magnetic adatom chain on a 2D superconductor. In particular, we confirm the existence of a `self-organized' 1D topologically non-trivial superconducting phase within the set of subgap Yu-Shiba-Rusinov (YSR) states formed along the magnetic chain. This phase is stabilized by incommensurate spiral correlations within the magnetic chain that arise from the competition between short-range ferromagnetic and long-range antiferromagnetic electron-induced exchange interactions, similar to a recent study for a 3D superconductor [M. Schecter et al. Phys. Rev. B 93, 140503(R) 2016]. The exchange interaction along diagonal directions are also considered and found to display behavior similar to a 1D substrate when close to half filling. We show that the topological phase diagram is robust against local superconducting order parameter suppression and weak substrate spin-orbit coupling. Lastly, we study the effect of a direct ferromagnetic exchange coupling between the adatoms, and find the region of spiral order in the phase diagram to be significantly enlarged in a wide range of the direct exchange coupling.

description: In this work, we demonstrate atomic-layer-deposited (ALD) single-channel indium oxide (In2O3) gate-all-around (GAA) nanoribbon FETs in a back-end-of-line (BEOL) compatible process. A maximum on-state current (ION) of 19.3 mA/μm (near 20 mA/μm) is achieved in an In2O3 GAA nanoribbon FET with a channel thickness (TIO) of 3.1 nm, channel length (Lch) of 40 nm, channel width (Wch) of 30 nm and dielectric HfO2 of 5 nm. The record high drain current obtained from an In2O3 FET is about one order of magnitude higher than any conventional single-channel semiconductor FETs. This extraordinary drain current and its related on-state performance demonstrate ALD In2O3 is a promising oxide semiconductor channel with great opportunities in BEOL compatible monolithic 3D integration.

description: In this paper, we investigate mode-2 solitary waves in a three-layer stratified flow model. Localised travelling wave solutions to both the fully nonlinear problem (Euler equations), and the three-layer Miyata-Choi-Camassa equations are found numerically and compared. Mode-2 solitary waves with speeds slower than the linear mode-1 long-wave speed are typically generalised solitary waves with infinite tails consisting of a resonant mode-one periodic wave train. Herein we evidence the existence of mode-2 embedded solitary waves, that is, we show that for specific values of the parameters, the amplitude of the oscillations in the tail are zero. For sufficiently thick middle layers, we also find branches of mode-2 solitary waves with speeds that extend beyond the mode-1 linear waves and are no longer embedded. In addition, we show how large amplitude embedded solitary waves are intimately linked to the conjugate states of the problem.

description: In Brazil studies with native medicinal plants are usually performed using non-domesticated plants and as a result the genetic variability of wild species could express different levels of active principles changing their therapeutic effect. Based on that, the aim of this study was to demonstrate that extract of different half- sib families Cordia verbenacea (DC), widely used as medicinal plant in Brazil, have different efficacy in the Total Growth Inhibition (TGI) of 5 different human tumor cell lines. Data were statistically analyzed using ANOVA follow by Tuckey test and a heritability estimation of the plant families was performed. The results showed that TGI are different for each plant family according with each human tumor cell line. For instance, extracts obtained from families 3,11 and 12 were more effective to inhibit the U-251 and Ht-29 cell lines compared to the other families, while extracts obtained from the family 32 was more effective against thethe PC-3 line. The heritability coefficient indicated that plant population selection could promote a genetic improvement related to its active principle and their pharmacological effect and could provide the identification of the best families according to their pharmacological efficacy. In conclusion, this study suggests that the domestication of a wild medicinal plant should be better monitored by its pharmacological effect.
Variational Principle for Planetary Interiors

description: In the past few years, the number of confirmed planets has grown above 2000. It is clear that they represent a diversity of structures not seen in our own solar system. In addition to very detailed interior modeling, it is valuable to have a simple analytical framework for describing planetary structures. Variational principle is a fundamental principle in physics, entailing that a physical system follows the trajectory which minimizes its action. It is alternative to the differential equation formulation of a physical system. Applying this principle to planetary interior can beautifully summarize the set of differential equations into one, which provides us some insight into the problem. From it, a universal mass-radius relation, an estimate of error propagation from equation of state to mass-radius relation, and a form of virial theorem applicable to planetary interiors are derived.

description: Most amino acids and sugars molecules occur in mirror, or chiral, images of each other, knowns as enantiomers. However, life on Earth is mostly homochiral: proteins contain almost exclusively L-amino acids, while only D-sugars appear in RNA and DNA. The mechanism behind this fundamental asymmetry of life remains unknown, despite much progress in the theoretical and experimental understanding of homochirality in the past decades. We review three potential mechanisms for the emergence of biological homochirality on primal Earth and explore their implications for astrobiology: the first, that biological homochirality is a stochastic process driven by local environmental fluctuations; the second, that it is driven by circularly-polarized ultraviolet radiation in star-forming regions; and the third, that it is driven by parity violation at the elementary particle level. We argue that each of these mechanisms leads to different observational consequences for the existence of enantiomeric excesses in our solar system and in exoplanets, pointing to the possibility that the search for life elsewhere will help elucidate the origins of homochirality on Earth.

description: Cooperatives serve as an important tool for improving the living conditions of members and their community. However, like any other business enterprise, cooperatives are also exposed to disasters that may affect their operations. This study analyzed the economic effects of disasters on cooperatives in CALABARZON, Philippines. Results of the Pearson’s chi-square test showed that cooperatives are exposed to various types of natural, biological, and human induced disasters. It was found out that disasters lead to increased operational costs and reduced net surplus. Using emergency-use-only cell phones and generators, changing production patterns, limiting high risk-customers, buying insurance, and establishing online and offline data backup systems were all found to mitigate the effects of disasters significantly. This study underscores that having business continuity plan (BCP) helps ensure continuous business operations following disaster events. This study recommends developing strategies that would equip cooperatives with necessary technical knowledge and skills in crafting and implementing BCP.
Optimality conditions for disjunctive programs based on generalized differentiation with application to mathematical programs with equilibrium constraints

description: We consider optimization problems with a disjunctive structure of the constraints. Prominent examples of such problems are mathematical programs with equilibrium constraints or vanishing constraints. Based on the concepts of directional subregularity and their characterization by means of objects from generalized differentiation, we obtain the new stationarity concept of extended M-stationarity, which turns out to be an equivalent dual characterization of B-stationarity. These results are valid under a very weak constraint qualification of Guignard type which is usually very difficult to verify. We also state a new constraint qualification which is a little bit stronger but verifiable. Further we present second-order optimality conditions, both necessary and sufficient. Finally we apply these results to the special case of mathematical programs with equilibrium constraints and compute explicitly all the objects from generalized differentiation. For this type of problems we also introduce the concept of strong M-stationarity which builds a bridge between S-stationarity and M-stationarity.

description: The modeling and removal of foregrounds poses a major challenge to searches for signals from inflation using the cosmic microwave background (CMB). In particular, the modeling of CMB foregrounds including various spatial averaging effects introduces multiple complications that will have to be accounted for in upcoming analyses. In this work, we introduce the generalization of the intensity moment expansion to the spin-2 field of linear polarization: the spin-moment expansion. Within this framework, moments become spin-2 objects that are directly related to the underlying spectral parameters and polarization angle distribution functions. In obtaining the required expressions for the polarization modeling, we highlight the similarities and differences with the intensity moment methods. A spinor rotation in the complex plane with frequency naturally arises from the first order moment when the signal contains both spectral parameters and polarization angle variations. Additional dependencies are introduced at higher order, and we demonstrate how these can be accounted with several illustrative examples. Our new modeling of the polarized signals reveals to be a powerful tool to model the frequency dependence of the polarization angle. As such, it can be immediately applied to numerous astrophysical situations.
