description: Beth Glover Reed, PhD, is Associate Professor of Social Work and, jointly, Women’s Studies in the School of Social Work at the University of Michigan. Her general scholarly interests focus on how to define and work for social justice, barriers to this work, and ways to reduce these. Her current research is designed to identify approaches for working both on alcohol and other drug problems (AOD) and intimate partner violence (IPV) together, explore why joint work occurs infrequently despite need, and determine what can enhance effective attention to both issues together. Past research has included a study of how states responded to several congressional mandates to increase services for women with AOD problems, plus various types of program evaluation. Recent work has been funded by the Robert Wood Johnson and Fahs-Beck Foundations and the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, the University’s Institute for Research on Women and Gender, the University’s Interdisciplinary Committee on Organization Studies, and several community-based programs. Other areas of research/scholarly interest focus on educational strategies and other interventions to increase social justice and social justice practice, and the application of multiple types of theorizing, including feminisms, to social justice, social problems and social change. Dr. Reed received her Master’s in General Psychology and PhD in Community/Clinical Psychology from the University of Cincinnati.

description: The study consists of two parts. The aim of the first part of thesis providing theoretical background is to characterise the concept of Corporate Social Responsibility and its relationship with contemporary perception of the development of natural precious areas, where the bioeconomy sector plays an important role. The aim of the second, scientific part is to characterise enterprises representing the bioeconomy sector and to provide the level of importance of selected noneconomic factors related to social responsibility in business decision-making process. The article also presents the areas of environmentally friendly activities of analysed entities and the assessment of entrepreneurs regarding positive impact of business activities on the natural precious areas. The method of diagnostic survey along with an interview questionnaire were applied in the empirical research. In the group of 150 examined companies, 48 were selected to represent entities of the bioeconomy sector on the basis of the resource criterion, which included all entities of production area that use biological resources. This was followed by a comparative characteristics of declared attitudes and actions taken by companies with regard to corporate social responsibility in a group of the bioeconomy sector and others. In order to reveal the occurrence of characteristic clusters and similar attitudes towards particular areas of corporate social responsibility in the bioeconomy sector a two-stage classification method of grouping, Two-step Cluster, was employed. Selected elements of descriptive statistics and the non-parametric Mann-Whitney test of the statistical significance were introduced in the study. Results of empirical research, presented in a descriptive and graphic way in the form of tables and graphs, were delivered using the SPSS Statistical Package.The analysis presented in the thesis provides support for the assertion that, in accordance with declarations of entrepreneurs, non-economic factors play an above-average role in business decision-making process of analysed enterprises. The entrepreneurs declared an important role of durable relationships with contractors and both employees’ and customers’ welfare. Particularly important role of non-economic factors in the examined sector is typical for companies with significant competitive potential, when compared to other enterprises, and it is associated with relatively greater scope of influence on given developmental aspects of the natural precious areas.

description: Computed tomography has become a routine method for probing processes in porous media, and the use of neutron imaging is especially suited to the study of the dynamics of hydrogenous fluids, and of fluids in a highdensity matrix. In this paper we give an overview of recent developments in both instrumentation and methodology at the neutron imaging facilities NEUTRA and ICON at the Paul Scherrer Institut. Increased acquisition rates coupled to new reconstruction techniques improve the information output for fewer projection data, which leads to higher volume acquisition rates. Together, these developments yield significantly higher spatial and temporal resolutions, making it possible to capture finer details in the spatial distribution of the fluid, and to increase the acquisition rate of 3-D CT volumes. The ability to add a second imaging modality, e.g., X-ray tomography, further enhances the feature and process information that can be collected, and these features are ideal for dynamic experiments of fluid distribution in porous media. We demonstrate the performance for a selection of experiments carried out at our neutron imaging instruments.

description: High performance p- and n-type single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) field-effect transistors (FETs) are obtained by using high and low work function metals, Pd and Al as source/drain (S/D) electrodes respectively. Ohmic contacts made to chemically intrinsic SWNTs, with no or small Schottky barriers (SB), afford high ON-state currents up to 20 uA per tube. The lack of significant Fermi-level pinning at the nanotube-metal interfaces allows for fine-tuning of the barrier heights for p-and n-channel conductions by changing the contact metals. The air-stable p- and n-FETs thus obtained can be used for complementary nanoelectronics, as demonstrated with the fabrication of an inverter. Other important issues regarding nanotube FETs including hysteresis, OFF-state leak currents, choice of nanotube diameter, and threshold voltage control are discussed.

description: This paper aims to consider the methodological features of elaborating and implementing bioeconomy development strategy in a region. The basis for discussion is a critical literature review. Nowadays the international community pays much attention to the sustainable spatial development. In our opinion one of the effective factors of sustainable spatial development is a bioeconomy. The mission of a bioeconomy as effective condition for sustainable development is a process of survival and reproduction of the gene pool of population, activation of the role of each individual person in a society, ensuring their rights and freedoms, saving the environment, creating conditions for the restoration of the biosphere and its local ecosystems, orientation on the reduction of the human impacts on environment and harmonization of man development in nature. We emphasize that the system and network planning methodology, which is in the base of the project management theory, must be used for elaborating and implementing bioeconomy development strategy in a region. Thus, the concept of project management exactly conforms to the complexity and dynamicity of the processes of bioeconomy development in a region. The methodology expects the activity of economic entities as to the spatial concretization and implementing of the strategy of balanced socio-economic and Eco Safety development of a region. To our mind, it is necessary consistently and purposefully to realize the innovations in the bioeconomy. We pay attention to the Eco Safety Innovations.
Scaling Mass Profiles around Elliptical Galaxies Observed with Chandra and XMM-Newton

description: We investigated the dynamical structure of 53 elliptical galaxies, based on the {\it Chandra} archival X-ray data. In X-ray luminous galaxies, a temperature increases with radius and a gas density is systematically higher at the optical outskirts, indicating a presence of a significant amount of the group-scale hot gas. In contrast, X-ray dim galaxies show a flat or declining temperature profile against radius and the gas density is relatively lower at the optical outskirts. Thus it is found that X-ray bright and faint elliptical galaxies are clearly distinguished by the temperature and gas density profile. The mass profile is well scaled by a virial radius $r_{200}$ rather than an optical-half radius $r_e$, and is quite similar at $(0.001-0.03)r_{200}$ between X-ray luminous and dim galaxies, and smoothly connects to those of clusters of galaxies. At the inner region of $(0.001-0.01)r_{200}$ or $(0.1-1)r_e$, the mass profile well traces a stellar mass with a constant mass-to-light ratio of $M/L_{\rm B}=3-10(M_{\odot}/L_{\odot})$. $M/L_{\rm B}$ ratio of X-ray bright galaxies rises up steeply beyond $0.01r_{200}$, and thus requires a presence of massive dark matter halo. From the deprojection analysis combined with the {\it XMM-Newton} data, we found that X-ray dim galaxies, NGC 3923, NGC 720, and IC 1459, also have a high $M/L_{\rm B}$ ratio of 20--30 at 20 kpc, comparable to that of X-ray luminous galaxies. Therefore, dark matter is indicated to be common in elliptical galaxies, and their distribution almost follows the NFW profile, as well as galaxy clusters.

title: Interacting with television : morning talk-TV and its communicative relationship with women viewers
Creators: name: Wood, Helen Kathleen
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2001

description: This thesis presents a unique interdisciplinary approach to gender and mass communication within the field of media and cultural studies. It evolves from a trend in media research that understands broadcasting as a communicative event which involves the creation of new and different forms of social action and interaction in a modem world (Meyrowitz, 1985; Thompson, 1995; Scannell, 1989; 1991; Moores, 2000). It investigates women's involvement with television discourse concentrating on morning talk programming in Britain which presents a concentration of talk shows and magazine programmes. These programmes are chosen specifically because in dealing with issues that are usually contained within the personal and private domain they often privilege the voices of 'ordinary' people and women in particular. It is argued that their personalised stylistic features produce textual strategies which position the viewer as also 'participator'. The research also involves a, broadly speaking, 'ethnographic' approach, viewing programmes with women in their homes and recording their responses alongside the text. This original methodology produces an analysis of text/audience interaction that concentrates on the motivation of a particular style of 'feminine' discourse, which can articulate the personal and private. As such, I emphasise the importance of the women's voices in the construction of the viewing experience which uniquely establishes a 'mediated conversational floor'. The research finds that through the interaction encouraged by the texts, the women respond producing their own relevant subjective experience that is significant as a modern phenomenon of self-reflexivity and identity construction.

description: What would current ecosystems be like without the impact of mankind? This question, which is critical for ecosystem management, has long remained unanswered due to a lack of present-day data from truly undisturbed ecosystems. Using mountaineering techniques, we accessed pristine relict ecosystems in the Peruvian Andes to provide this baseline data and compared it with the surrounding accessible and disturbed landscape. We show that natural ecosystems and human impact in the high Andes are radically different from preconceived ideas. Vegetation of these ‘lost worlds’ was dominated by plant species previously unknown to science that have become extinct in nearby human-affected ecosystems. Furthermore, natural vegetation had greater plant biomass with potentially as much as ten times more forest, but lower plant diversity. Contrary to our expectations, soils showed relatively little degradation when compared within a vegetation type, but differed mainly between forest and grassland ecosystems. At the landscape level, a presumed large-scale forest reduction resulted in a nowadays more acidic soilscape with higher carbon storage, partly ameliorating carbon loss through deforestation. Human impact in the high Andes, thus, had mixed effects on biodiversity, while soils and carbon stocks would have been mainly indirectly affected through a suggested large-scale vegetation change.

Essential ingredients of the model are the segregated microstructure typical of thick-film resistors and tunneling between the conducting grains. Nonuniversality sets in as consequence of wide distribution of interparticle tunneling distances.

description: Research impact and its measurement are of increasing importance. This is particularly significant for agricultural science, which is expected to produce solutions to future challenges that will arise from population growth, climate change and ecosystem degradation. Much econometric effort has been devoted to analysis of investment in agricultural research and its effects on farm productivity. This analysis, reviewed here, has produced a consensus suggesting that returns are high, although they are achieved only after long lags. However, policymakers perceive the occurrence of impacts as too few, and poorly targeted with respect to their needs. An attribution gap between the outcomes of agricultural research and how they reach farmers has motivated evaluation of the process of transmission and translation of agricultural research outputs into ultimate impacts. This gap can be narrowed by Participatory Impact Pathway Analysis, implemented mostly so far in low income countries. However, it is a costly and cognitively complex approach. Content analysis of the UK’s 2014 REF Impact Case Studies uncovers the mind set of researchers and their managers regarding the description of impact and how it is supposed to occur. This reveals a nascent conservatism that focuses on research that can be shown to have impact, rather than research impact itself. From the overall discussion it can be concluded that the impact evaluation of agricultural science raises more profound issues than either efficiency or transparency. Confirmation bias threatens impact evaluation, principally by distracting from other important stories about how and why the ultimate effects occur, but also by transforming the nature of the process itself. Methodological pluralism, with greater integration and triangulation between different evaluation approaches, is a promising means of resolving these problems.

description: A closed piecewise linear curve is called integral if it is comprised of unit intervals. Kenyon's problem asks whether for every integral curve $γ$ in $\mathbb{R}^3$, there is a dome over $γ$, i.e. whether $γ$ is a boundary of a polyhedral surface whose faces are equilateral triangles with unit edge lengths. First, we give an algebraic necessary condition when $γ$ is a quadrilateral, thus giving a negative solution to Kenyon's problem in full generality. We then prove that domes exist over a dense set of integral curves. Finally, we give an explicit construction of domes over all regular $n$-gons.

description: This paper estimates the rate of success of new dairy products in the UK. They are an important strategy applied by manufacturers and retailers when competing. Moreover, in the current context of decreasing demand for dairy products, the strategy is seen as a way to recapture lost market. We focus on products introduced in 2011 using Mintel’s GNPD and their sales were followed up to 2015 using Kantar Worldpanel data. A categorical variable was constructed based on the results and modelled using a multinomial logit. Our findings indicate all categories of claims named health, safety, environmental, demographic or convenient can be associated to the level of success of dairy products. However its significance is category specific.
A New Method for Simulating QCD at Finite Density

Year: 2003
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Lattice (hep-lat)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We propose a new method for simulating QCD at finite density, where interesting phases such as the color superconductivity phase is conjectured to appear. The method is based on a general factorization property of distribution functions of observables, and it is therefore applicable to any system with a complex action. The so-called overlap problem is completely eliminated by the use of constrained simulations. We test this method in a Random Matrix Theory for finite density QCD, where we are able to reproduce the exact results for the quark number density. The achieved system size is large enough to extract the thermodynamic limit. Our results provide a clear understanding of how the expected first order phase transition is induced by the imaginary part of the action. We also discuss the noncommutativity of the zero chemical potential limit and the thermodynamic limit, which is relevant to recent Monte Carlo studies at small chemical potential.

description: We study both analytically and numerically the decay of fidelity of classical motion for integrable systems. We find that the decay can exhibit two qualitatively different behaviors, namely an algebraic decay, that is due to the perturbation of the shape of the tori, or a ballistic decay, that is associated with perturbing the frequencies of the tori. The type of decay depends on initial conditions and on the shape of the perturbation but, for small enough perturbations, not on its size. We demonstrate numerically this general behavior for the cases of the twist map, the rectangular billiard, and the kicked rotor in the almost integrable regime.

description: The irregular reversals of wind direction in convective turbulence are found to have fluctuating intervals that can be related to critical behavior. It is shown that the net magnetization of a 2D Ising lattice of finite size fluctuates in the same way. Detrended fluctuation analysis of the wind reversal time series results in a scaling behavior that agrees with that of the Ising problem. The properties found suggest that the wind reversal phenomenon exhibits signs of self-organized criticality.

description: Policymakers are increasingly interested in the sustainability of milk production due to the intensive nature of the production system and the associated risk to the environment. This study uses national extensions of the EU Farm Accountancy Data Network to derive nationally representative farm gate level nitrogen use efficiency indicators for specialist dairy farms in the Republic of Ireland and the Netherlands between 2006 and 2014. The Republic of Ireland and the Netherlands are of particular interest as dairy production is an important sector in both countries and milk production has grown in these two Member States following the removal of the EU milk quota regime in 2015. Results indicate relatively similar N balances per hectare across both countries with the Netherlands returning significantly higher N use efficiency and lower N surplus per kg of milk solids produced. Results generally show improvements in nutrient use over the study period across both countries, due to efficiency gains, but highlight differences between a grazed grass system and a more concentrate feed high input orientated system and illustrate the need for the development of a life-cycle analysis approach to fully capture the full scale environmental efficiency of differing systems of milk production.

Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.

description: The 2003 Mid-Term Review introduced decoupled payments as part of the Common Agricultural Policy; however it allowed the maintenance of limited coupled support. As a result, there are significant differences in subsidies granted in each Member State. We aim to explore the effects on technical efficiency of the different implementations of support payments in the beef sector in selected countries. This analysis contributes to the literature by exploring the effects of both coupled and decoupled support payments on farm level economic performance. For this purpose, country specific output distance functions are estimated together with the effects of a series of technical efficiency drivers, including subsidies, implementing stochastic frontier analysis. Unbalanced panel datasets for France, Ireland, Germany, Scotland and England and Wales are built using Farm Accountancy Data Network information, for the years 2005 to 2012. Our estimates show that decoupled payments had a positive effect on efficiency in all countries, while the retention of coupled support had a significant negative impact on technical efficiency on French beef farms. This suggests that the maintenance of coupled support might compromise farm economic performance in the sector.
title: John Henry Newman's idea of a Catholic academy: contributions from his life and work towards a theology of education, with reference to recent documents of the Catholic Church
Creators: name: Warner, David Brian
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2001

description: This thesis critically examines and synthesizes Newman's theological views on the nature and aims of a Catholic academy, by comparing his life and work with recent documents of the Catholic Church, including Ex Corde Ecclesiae (1990) and The Catholic School on the Threshold of the Third Millennium (1997). Its primary original contribution is the systemisation of Newman's educational ideal based on this theological focus and intertextual method.

Part one, 'Retrieving the Sources', employs an historico-theological ressourcement. It seeks to rediscover sources for Catholic educational renewal from Newman and the magisterium, even as these are based on a similar return to the sources of Scripture and the classic texts of Christianity. Chapter one introduces the aims, methods, sources, and working definitions. The second and third chapters analyse Newman's specifically educational formation, writings, and praxis, in light of theological concerns.

Part two, 'Restoring the Foundations' begins with an examination in chapter four of the Christian humanism Newman developed through a retrieval of the Alexandrian Fathers. His contributions to the tradition included an imaginative rearticulation of the preeminence of Christ and theology in education, and of a Christian hierarchy of educational aims. Chapters five and six consider Newman's relevance to the contemporary concerns of school identity and climate, illustrating the type of `theological prescriptions' advocated by John Paul II. Three appendices provide original syntheses of background information and unpublished material.

The concluding chapter brings the most important findings into sharp relief, while suggesting areas for further study. Newman propounded his theological convictions regarding Catholic education with passionate intensity through his literary art and his positive personal influence. They have continuing relevance, despite the differences that separate his world from ours. He offers enduring principles for study, and inspiring stories for re-imagining the Church's mission of restoring all things in Christ, through a courageous and continual renewal of Catholic schools and universities.

description: Despite inconclusive evidence of the impact of agricultural commercialization on smallholder welfare, many developing countries with majority of their population engaged in smallholder agriculture continue to pursue this agricultural transformation process. Past empirical studies have been criticized for methodological flaws and where real negative evidence existed, then this has been attributed to policy failures rather than commercialization process per se. Using panel data collected from Kenya, this study fits an endogenous switching regression model in a correlated random effects framework to analyze impacts of agricultural commercialization on household poverty proxied by annual household per capita expenditure on food and non-food items including own produced and consumed crops and livestock products. The results show that agricultural commercialization significantly increases annual per capita household expenditure among commercialized and non-commercialized had they commercialized. The annual per capita expenditure gap existing between commercialized and non-commercialized households emanates from their differences in amounts of resources owned (57%) and efficiency of using these resources (43%). Closing this expenditure gap (poverty gap) require improving the amount of resources owned and resource use efficiency among non-commercialized households. Therefore, policy options geared toward stimulating and/or enhancing smallholder agricultural commercialization are encourages as a poverty reduction strategy.

description: MEMS-Inertialsensoren sind oszillatorische elektromechanische Bauelemente, die Relativbewegungen in einem Inertialsystem erfassen. Energieverluste in diesen Systemen, ausgedrückt als Gütefaktor Q, haben direkten Einfluss auf die absolute Messgenauigkeit der Sensoren, beispielsweise wenn sie für Navigation bei Ausfall des GPS-Signals eingesetzt werden. Ein Mechanismus, der den Gütefaktor reduzieren kann, ist Energieverlust des oszillierenden Systems durch Gasdämpfung. Indem der Sensor in einer evakuierten Kaverne betrieben wird, kann dieser Einfluss reduziert werden. Aufgrund der knappen Platzverhältnisse, die bei vielen Anwendungen für die einzelnen Bauelemente zur Verfügung stehen, wird das Gehäuse des Inertialsensors möglichst platzsparend ausgeführt. Aufgrund der fortschreitenden Miniaturisierung vieler Bauelemente und somit auch der Kavernenvolumina von Inertialsensoren wird zukünftig der Einfluss geringfügiger Veränderungen der Dämpfungsatmosphäre in Sensorkavernen auf die Zuverlässigkeit der Sensoren immer größer. Die Versuche in dieser Arbeit zeigen, dass die Sensorkavernen trotz Vakuumwaferbondens Wasserstoff enthalten, der durch Desorbate, die im Verlauf der Sensorherstellung auftreten, nach abgeschlossener Prozessierung in den Kavernen eingeschlossen ist. Messungen anhand von Belastungstests zur beschleunigten Alterung von Sensorelementen in dieser Arbeit deuten zudem darauf hin, dass es Wasserstoffmolekülen trotz Bemühungen um eine hermetische Abdichtung der Sensorkavernen gelingt, aus den Sensorkavernen hinaus zu diffundieren, was den Qualitätsfaktor des Systems verändert und die Lebensdauer des Sensors beeinflusst. In dieser Arbeit werden sowohl die Quellen des auffindbaren Wasserstoffs im Sensoraufbau, als auch Diffusionspfade zwischen Innen- und Außenseite der Sensorkavernen identifiziert. Für jeden der betrachteten Mechanismen, die den Gütefaktor beeinträchtigen können, werden Maßnahmen vorgestellt, mit denen sich unerwünschte Veränderungen der Dämpfungsatmosphäre wirksam und langfristig vermeiden lassen. Dazu gehören Ausheizprozesse vor Verschluss der Kavernen, Unterbrechen der Diffusionspfade durch Layoutanpassungen, sowie ein Ansatz für die Verwendung von Materialien mit absorbierender Wirkung in den Kavernen, deren thermische Aktivierung mittels Laserstrahlung erfolgt.

description: The study evaluates the impact of risk on enterprises of smallholder male, female and young milk producers in Tanzania’s formal and informal dairy value chains. It also examines the effect of uncertainty on the decision to invest in milk production in both value chains. Results indicate that youths in the informal value chain face the greatest level of risk followed by men in the formal value chain, and then men in the informal value chain. Women in both value chains and youths in the formal value chain face relatively low risk. Overall, milk production in the informal chain is found to be substantially riskier than production in the formal chain. Optimal investment triggers are found to be much larger than the conventional triggers and are sensitive to volatility of returns. The results’ policy and practical implications for inclusive dairy industry development in Tanzania are highlighted.

description: The European Union is one of the world’s leading wine producers and exporters. European vineyards are smaller than in other wine producing countries and are cultivated more labour-intensively. However, this economic disadvantage can become a benefit for supporting biodiversity and ecosystem services in vinicultural landscapes. Using cover crops in vineyards is a practice to reduce soil erosion and potentially enhance biodiversity. Field trials in VineDivers have shown this across a European transect (France, Austria, Spain and Romania). We analyzed the competitiveness of French wine from the Layon region on world markets with different field sites scenarios using a Policy Analysis Matrix (PAM). For this purpose we took into account revenues and costs of grape production. Our results show that viniculture in Layon is competitive in the worldwide market but it is under pressure due to regulations to protect the wine production in French wine-regions. The regional value creation in producing high quality wine with a more environmental friendly production enables the vintners to earn higher profits.

description: The number of active and non active satellites in Earth orbit has dramatically increased in recent decades, requiring the development of novel surveillance techniques to monitor and track them. In this paper, we build upon previous non-coherent passive radar space surveillance demonstrations undertaken using the Murchison Widefield Array (MWA). We develop the concept of the Dynamic Signal to Noise Ratio Spectrum (DSNRS) in order to isolate signals of interest (reflections of FM transmissions of objects in orbit) and efficiently differentiate them from direct path reception events. We detect and track Alouette-2, ALOS, UKube-1, the International Space Station, and Duchifat-1 in this manner. We also identified out-of-band transmissions from Duchifat-1 and UKube-1 using these techniques, demonstrating the MWA's capability to look for spurious transmissions from satellites. We identify an offset from the locations predicted by the cataloged orbital parameters for some of the satellites, demonstrating the potential of using MWA for satellite catalog maintenance. These results demonstrate the capability of the MWA for Space Situational Awareness and we describe future work in this area.
