description: This dissertation is a material-archival history of the Palestinian refugee camp. Its primary claim is that to read Palestine-Israel one must read the camp; the refugee camp, I argue, is the settlercolony’s irreducible foil. How, then, has the question of the camps (neither synonymous with nor reducible to the ‘refugee problem’) exerted its own gravitational force on Palestinian, Israeli, and humanitarian politics? What kind of historical relation is there, I ask, between camp-form and that spatial form from which it seems inseparable—the colony? Working with a range of textual and visual documents (from bureaucratic reports to prose fiction and architectural drawings) drawn from four different archives, I argue that the Palestinian camps lie at the center of the foundational-temporal impasse of the Israeli state—its inability to decisively render the moment of its inception as past. In other words, my argument is that the camp sits not only at the intersection of the most critical biopolitical sites of the settler- colonial—the colonized body and its movements, land and its possession in regimes of property and ownership—but, and perhaps even more consequentially, at the point of their temporal resolution in definite and final forms. Camp and colony are entangled from the start; co-produced in the double movement of dispossession and substitution, un-homing and homing; twinned but inversed topologies of the freedom of movement.

description: In this study, we synthesized a new series of substituted aliphatic 1,3,4-thiadiazol-2(3H)-one derivatives (6-24) in yields ranging from 42 to 70% with an interesting mechanism that involves internal nucleophilic substitution followed by an SN2-type nucleophilic substitution. First, 1-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-((5-methyl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)thio)ethanone (3) was synthesized from the reaction of 5-methyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-thiol (1) with 2-bromo-1-(4-chlorophenyl)ethanone (2) in the presence of potassium hydroxide. Then, 1-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-((5-methyl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)thio)ethanol (4) was synthesized by a reduction reaction of this compound using NaBH4. Finally, 5-methyl-3-alkyl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2(3H)-one derivatives (6-24), which are the target compounds, were synthesized from the reaction of this compound (4), which is a secondary alcohol with various alkyl halides (5a-n) in the presence of sodium hydride (NaH). This study presents an interesting reaction mechanism related to the synthesis of aliphatic 1,3,4-thiadiazol-2(3H)-one derivatives that is not recorded in the literature.

description: We compute the relaxation of the total energy related to a variational model for nematic elastomers, involving a nonlinear elastic mechanical energy depending on the orientation of the molecules of the nematic elastomer, and a nematic Oseen--Frank energy in the deformed configuration. The main assumptions are that the quasiconvexification of the mechanical term is polyconvex and that the deformation belongs to an Orlicz-Sobolev space with an integrability just above the space dimension minus one, and does not present cavitation. We benefit from the fine properties of orientation-preserving maps satisfying that regularity requirement proven in \cite{HS} and extend the result of \cite{MCOl} to Orlicz spaces with a suitable growth condition at infinity.

description: Platelets are crucial disk-shaped cells within the blood stream that clump together to 'plug' damaged blood vessels to prevent bleeding (haemostasis). Platelet components obtained from blood platelet donations are in high demand. The chronic shortage of platelet products is due to bacterial growth and their deterioration during storage. The recommended storage conditions see platelets being stored at [22 Degrees Celsius] for a maximum of 7 days in Australia. During this time, however, platelets deteriorate gradually, called the PSL resulting a series of biochemical changes that also lead to a heterogenous product with different patient reactions following platelet transfusion. Currently, there are no feasible laboratory markers available to assess the extent of deterioration to ensure the quality of every platelet product for transfusion, despite several metabolomic, proteomic and lipidomic studies having investigated the biochemical processes during platelet storage. Protein glycosylation is a major component regulating platelet function, such as binding to von Willebrand factor at sites of injury and signalling for platelet clearance. However, our current knowledge if and how protein glycosylation is affected during standard storage conditions is sparse. In close collaboration with the Australian Red Cross Lifeblood R&D the aim of this work was to (i) characterise the platelet N- and O-glycome, (ii) investigate its development over 7 days of storage at room temperature, and (iii) gain an insight into the changes on (glyco)protein level using state-of-the-art glycomics and proteomics technologies.

Tenth tergum elongated horizontally with triangularly excised bifid apex slightly upcurved; tip heavily sclerotized, almost hook-like. Setose warts moderately elevated, situated on middle of tenth tergum, well separated and obliquely elongated. Clasper with basal segment straight, almost parallel-sided in both lateral and ventral views, apical segment short, strongly curved medially, clearly bifid. Phallotheca with elongated and enlarged base, dorsum oblique in lateral view and strongly upcurved at articulation with endothecal process; ventral surface strongly sinuate. Subapical ventral keel short, lightly sclerotized. Phallotremal sclerite small, not tapering to apex. Sclerous band of endophallus well developed and touching phallotremal sclerites. Lobules of ventral endothecal lobe membranous and small but visible in both lateral and dorsal views. Endothecal processes forming caudal lips of phallic apparatus semicircular, articulation vertical and covering whole caudal end of phallic apparatus.
 This species is close to P. tofina, but the clasper is slender not robust, the apicaI segment of the clasper is more bifid, and the setose warts are more elevated. The phallic dorsum is oblique not straight, and there are no additional subapical lobules on the ventral endothecal lobe. There are also many differences in wing venation as described, and the overall size is much smaller. This species is named in honour of the collector, R. Andria.

description: Interactive activities play a vital role in enhancing language learning among primary school students. These activities—such as games, role-play, storytelling, songs, and group discussions—encourage active participation, improve communication skills, and foster a positive learning environment. By engaging students in meaningful and enjoyable tasks, interactive methods help develop vocabulary, grammar, listening, and speaking skills more effectively than traditional approaches. Furthermore, they cater to various learning styles and promote collaboration and creativity. This paper explores the impact of interactive activities on language acquisition in young learners and highlights best practices for incorporating them into the classroom.

description: New York City's largest tax expenditure, the 421-a partial tax exemption for multi-unit housing, is set to expire on June 15, 2015, sparking heated debates about whether to renew, modify, or cancel the program. Originally conceived 44 years ago as a way to incentivize development during a period of inner-city disinvestment, the program's effects and relevance are being called into question in what is now one of the hottest residential real estate markets worldwide. Despite a series of reforms which aimed to add a component of affordable housing to the program, critics feel that it is ineffective as an affordable housing program, and unnecessary as a developer incentive. This paper will study the current distribution of subsidy recipients in order to determine who is receiving the benefit at a broader scale, and then further focus on the effect of the tax exemption on recent condominium sales in two neighborhoods with distinctly different characteristics: Manhattan's Upper West Side between 59th and 79th Streets, and Morrisania/Longwood in the Bronx. These studies will take a close look at the level of benefit to developers, as well as non-developers who are able to recognize the value of the subsidy, and whether they could be considered the intended beneficiaries of the program.

description: Why do some autocratic countries attract more foreign direct investment (FDI) than others? Surprisingly, few studies have explored the considerable variation in FDI inflows to non-democratic countries. In this article, I argue that non-democratic countries with seemingly democratic political institutions, such as elected legislatures, attract more FDI inflow than others. This is because these institutions can (1) reduce the transaction costs of investment activities due to the relative transparency of the policy-making process, and (2) act as veto players, making the existing market-friendly policy changes difficult, and thus, promising a more stable investment environment. My empirical results support the main expectation that autocratic countries with legislatures attract more FDI than other autocratic countries, and the institutions’ effects are conditionally modified by the quality of market protecting institutions.

description: 55Mn NMR was used to study the ferromagnetic insulating state in four different manganites. In all cases the coexistence of two types of regions possessing different NMR spectra and nuclear spin dynamics was found. In the ferromagnetic insulating clusters the hopping frequency fhop of the electron holes is slower comparing to the NMR frequency fres and two lines ascribed to 3+ and 4+ valence states of Mn are observed. The relaxation rate increases rapidly with the increasing temperature, so that these spectra can no longer be observed for temperatures higher than approx 60 K. In ferromagnetic metallic clusters fres < fhop and the motionally narrowed spectrum is observed in a broad temperature interval, as the relaxation remains only moderately fast.

description: This paper analyzes the motivations of and challenges faced by Georgia’s public schools in participating in the Farm to School program. A statewide survey was conducted among existing and potential Farm to School participants in Georgia. Results validate that motivation for local buying exists within Georgia and a market for such trading is present. Absent from the mainstream market is the personnel to improve the system and the infrastructure to ease the process. Probit regression results indicate that school districts are more influenced by food hardship considerations than nutritional issues in deciding to participate in the Farm to School program.

Male genitalia. Ninth abdominal segment annular, anteriorly rounded, dorsum narrow, median keel very short. Apical lobe on posterolateral margin developed into semicircular lobe covering half base of clasper. Tenth tergum elongated horizontally with quadrangularly excised bifid apex. Setose warts elevated and enlarged but separate and located around middle of tergum. Clasper basal segment almost parallel-sided. Caudal segment short with rounded apex except for small, medially directed, pointed projection. Phallotheca with elongated and enlarged base, dorsum and ventrum straight, resulting in parallel-sided central portion. Dorsal distal portion upcurved and covered by endothecal processes. Phallotremal sclerites large and rounded; end of sclerous band of endophallus heavily sclerotized and clearly visible. Subapical ventral keel short and so wide that almost globular endothecal processes do not cover whole ending of phallotheca. Lobules of ventral endothecal lobe very large.
 This is the largest known Potamyia species, easily distinguished simply by its size and by the peculiar ending of the phallic apparatus, especially the large lobules of the ventral endothecal lobe. The species was collected from five locations in the central region of East Madagascar, and is named after the type locality.

Benefits of belonging: Dynamic group identity as a protective resource against psychological threat

Publisher: name: Columbia University

Subjects: subject: Psychology
subject: FOS: Psychology

description: In the face of identity threat, how do people who belong to devalued groups protect themselves from negative outcomes, like poor health and performance?  This research focuses on how devalued identities can be harnessed and used to combat vulnerability to poor outcomes. Social identities are central to psychological functioning, but, due in part to a focus on identity's stable, trait-like features, past research on how devalued identities affect outcomes has produced mixed results. Conceptualizing identity as a dynamic, situation-responsive system, three studies test whether activating positive aspects of a threatened group protects against negative outcomes specifically in threatening situations. Study 1 establishes that affirming groups effectively buffers against underperformance resulting from stereotype threat and that some people choose to affirm the very group that is threatened. Study 2 tests whether affirming aspects of the threatened identity also allows one to maintain personal and collective self-esteem and whether effects depend on how one construes belonging to the group (i.e., unique group member, typical group member, unique individual). Whereas performance and personal self-esteem were equal across conditions, collective self-esteem was boosted after affirming oneself as a unique group member, suggesting that identity as defined and optimized by the individual confers benefits. Study 3 tests the situational-specificity of these protective effects and shows that highly-valued identity knowledge predicted lower levels of distress and higher performance only when activated in response to discrimination and not to other situations. Across all three studies, measures of stable identification did not consistently predict outcomes in threatening or non-threatening situations. At the core of the approach adopted in these three studies is an interplay between person and situation in defining identity. This approach presents a fuller picture of the multi-faceted functional role of identity and demonstrates the utility of studying identity in context.

Here m(x) is a positive step function with a surface S of discontinuity (the separation surface). So far the stratified media in which the separating surface S consists of paralell planes have been vigorously studied. Also the case where S has a cone shape has been discussed. In this work we shall deal with a new type of discontinuity which we call cylindrical discontinuity. Under this condition we shall use the limiting absorption method to prove that H is absolute continuous. Our method is based on a apriori estimates of radiation condition term.

We solve analytically the master equation and the first-passage problem. The analytic results confirm the numerical results obtained by Lipowski and Droz. We find that the stationary probability distribution and the shortest one among the characteristic times are governed by the same free energy. We also analytically derive the form of the critical probability distribution on the critical line, which supports their results obtained by numerically calculating Binder cumulants (cond-mat/0201472).

description: We prove that certain Gibbs measures on subshifts of finite type are nonsingular and ergodic for certain countable equivalence relations, including the orbit relation of the adic transformation (the same as equality after a permutation of finitely many coordinates). The relations we consider are defined by cocycles taking values in groups, including some nonabelian ones. This generalizes (half of) the identification of the invariant ergodic probability measures for the Pascal adic transformation as exactly the Bernoulli measures---a version of de Finetti's Theorem. Generalizing the other half, we characterize the measures on subshifts of finite type that are invariant under both the adic and the shift as the Gibbs measures whose potential functions depend on only a single coordinate. There are connections with and implications for exchangeability, ratio limit theorems for transient Markov chains, interval splitting procedures, `canonical' Gibbs states, and the triviality of remote sigma-fields finer than the usual tail field.

description: Klebsiella pneumoniae is a leading cause of severe hospital-acquired respiratory tract infections and death but little is known regarding the modulation of respiratory dendritic cell (DC) subsets. Plasmacytoid DC (pDC) are specialized type 1 interferon producing cells and considered to be classical mediators of antiviral immunity. By using multiparameter flow cytometry analysis we have analysed the modulation of respiratory DC subsets after intratracheal Klebsiella pneumonia infection. Data indicate that pDCs and MoDC were markedly elevated in the post acute pneumonia phase when compared to mock-infected controls. Analysis of draining mediastinal lymph nodes revealed a rapid increase of activated CD103+ DC, CD11b+ DC and MoDC within 48 h post infection. Lung pDC identification during bacterial pneumonia was confirmed by extended phenotyping for 120G8, mPDCA-1 and Siglec-H expression and by demonstration of high Interferon-alpha producing capacity after cell sorting. Cytokine expression analysis of ex vivo-sorted respiratory DC subpopulations from infected animals revealed elevated Interferon-alpha in pDC, elevated IFN-gamma, IL-4 and IL-13 in CD103+ DC and IL-19 and IL-12p35 in CD11b+ DC subsets in comparison to CD11c+ MHC-class IIlow cells indicating distinct functional roles. Antigen-specific naive CD4+ T cell stimulatory capacity of purified respiratory DC subsets was analysed in a model system with purified ovalbumin T cell receptor transgenic naive CD4+ responder T cells and respiratory DC subsets, pulsed with ovalbumin and matured with Klebsiella pneumoniae lysate. CD103+ DC and CD11b+ DC subsets represented the most potent naive CD4+ T helper cell activators. These results provide novel insight into the activation of respiratory DC subsets during Klebsiella pneumonia infection. The detection of increased respiratory pDC numbers in bacterial pneumonia may indicate possible novel pDC functions with respect to lung repair and regeneration.

description: Dental fluorosis is characterized by subsurface hypomineralization and increased porosity of enamel, associated with a delay in the removal of enamel matrix proteins. To investigate the effects of fluoride on ameloblasts, A/J mice were given 50 ppm sodium fluoride in drinking water for four weeks, resulting serum fluoride levels of 4.5 µM, a four-fold increase over control mice with no fluoride added to drinking water. MicroCT analyses showed delayed and incomplete mineralization of fluorosed incisor enamel as compared to control enamel. A microarray analysis of secretory and maturation stage ameloblasts microdissected from control and fluorosed mouse incisors showed that genes clustered with Mmp20 appeared to be less downregulated in maturation stage ameloblasts of fluorosed incisors as compared to control maturation ameloblasts. One of these Mmp20 co-regulated genes was the global chromatin organizer, special AT-rich sequence-binding protein-1 (SATB1). Immunohistochemical analysis showed increased SATB1 protein present in fluorosed ameloblasts compared to controls. In vitro, exposure of human ameloblast-lineage cells to micromolar levels of both NaF and AlF3 led to a significantly increase in SATB1 protein content, but not levels of Satb1 mRNA, suggesting a fluoride-induced mechanism protecting SABT1 from degradation. Consistent with this possibility, we used immunohistochemistry and Western blot to show that fluoride exposed ameloblasts had increased phosphorylated PKCα both in vivo and in vitro. This kinase is known to phosphorylate SATB1, and phosphorylation is known to protect SATB1 from degradation by caspase-6. In addition, production of cellular diacylglycerol (DAG) was significantly increased in fluorosed ameloblasts, suggesting that the increased phosphorylation of SATB1 may be related to an effect of fluoride to enhance Gαq activity of secretory ameloblasts.

description: We study the de Rham 1-cohomology H^1_{DR}(M,G) of a smooth manifold M with values in a Lie group G. By definition, this is the quotient of the set of flat connections in the trivial principle bundle $M\times G$ by the so-called gauge equivalence. We consider the case when M is a compact Kähler manifold and G is a solvable complex linear algebraic group of a special class which contains the Borel subgroups of all complex classical groups and, in particular, the group $T_n(\Bbb C)$ of all triangular matrices. In this case, we get a description of the set H^1_{DR}(M,G) in terms of the 1-cohomology of M with values in the (abelian) sheaves of flat sections of certain flat Lie algebra bundles with fibre $\frak g$ (the Lie algebra of G) or, equivalently, in terms of the harmonic forms on M representing this cohomology.

description: This article is based on comparative anthropological fieldwork conducted in the Alpine region of Switzerland on sustainable environmental knowledge about natural hazards related to climate change. It examines ways to complement the normative and technological practices of risk management by using local knowledge to improve the resilience of affected communities against climate- related risks. The study shows how agricultural practices and knowledge may contribute to sustainable behavior towards nature and the environment. It explores how local environmental knowledge, perceptions, and handling strategies of climate-related risks may be integrated within a renewed concept of environmental sustainability. Participatory GIS mapping (PGIS) is the primary research method used. Based on applied visual anthropological methods, PGIS is a cartographical approach that integrates local perceptions and strategies of action drawn from interviews and participant observation. This approach enables improved communication of local knowledge and contributes to interdisciplinary cooperation between different academic fields, such as social anthropology, geography, and civil-engineering in the context of technological risk management. The approach encourages the active participation of local people in the process of sustainable risk management through the integration of cultural meanings and local knowledge about the sustainable management of sensitive natural environments.

description: The approach to calculating the effective dielectric and magnetic response in bounded composite materials is developed. The method is essentially based on the renormalisation of the dielectric matrix parameters to account for the surface polarisation and the displacement currents at the interfaces. This makes it possible the use of the effective medium theory developed for unbounded materials, where the spatially-dependent local dielectric constant and magnetic permeability are introduced. A detailed mathematical analysis is given for a dielectric layer having conducting fibres with in-plane positions. The surface effects are most essential at microwave frequencies in correspondence to the resonance excitation of fibres. In thin layers (having a thickness of the transition layer), the effective dielectric constant has a dispersion region at much higher frequencies compared to those for unbounded materials, exhibiting a strong dependence on the layer thickness. For the geometry considered, the effective magnetic permeability differs slightly from unity and corresponds to the renormalised matrix parameter. The magnetic effect is due entirely to the existence of the surface displacement currents.

description: Currently, additive manufacturing of ceramics by stereolithography (SLA) is limited to single materials and by a poor thickness resolution that strongly depends on the ceramic particles-UV light interaction. Combining selective laser curing with inkjet printing represents a novel strategy to overcome these constrains. Nonetheless, this approach requires UV-curable inks that allow hardening of the printed material and sintering to high density. In this work, we report how to design an ink for inkjet printing of yttria stabilized zirconia (YSZ) which can be impressed by addition of UV-curable monomers. We especially show how the formulation of the inks and particularly the UV-monomer concentration impacts the printability and the UV-curing. This leads to prints that are resistant to solvent washing first and densify to 96% dense YSZ layers after sintering.

description: We prove an algebraic ``no-go theorem'' to the effect that a nontrivial Poisson algebra cannot be realized as an associative algebra with the commutator bracket. Using this, we show that there is an obstruction to quantizing the Poisson algebra of polynomials generated by a nilpotent basic algebra on a symplectic manifold. Finally, we explicitly construct a polynomial quantization of a symplectic manifold with a solvable basic algebra, thereby showing that the obstruction in the nilpotent case does not extend to the solvable case.

description: In this paper we study the motion of a finite composite cylindrical annulus made of generalized neo-Hookean solids that is subject to periodic shear loading on the inner boundary. Such a problem has relevance to several problems of technological significance, for example blood vessels can be idealized as finite anisotropic composite cylinders. Here, we consider the annulus to be comprised of an isotropic material, namely a generalized neo-Hookean solid and study the effects of annular thickness on the stress distribution within the annulus. We solve the governing partial differential equations and examine the stress response for the strain hardening and strain softening cases of the generalized neo-Hookean model. We also solve the problem of the annular region being infinite in length, that reduces the problem to a partial differential equation in only time and one spatial dimension. When the thickness of the annulus is sufficiently large, the solutions to the problems exhibit very interesting boundary layer structure in that the norm of the strain has a large gradient in a narrow region adjacent to one of the boundaries, with the strain being relatively uniform outside the narrow region. We also find that beyond a distance of two times the annular wall thickness from the ends of the cylinder the solutions for the infinite length cylinder match solutions for the finite length cylinder implying that end effects are not felt in most of the length of a sufficiently long annulus.

Male genitalia. Ninth abdominal segment annular, anteriorly regularly rounded, dorsum narrow, median keel long and visible in dorsal view as an elongated median process. Apical lobe on posterolateral margin not strongly developed, but with additional small lobes visible above it. Tenth tergum elongated horizontally with narrow excision forming very characteristic bifid apex, both lobes large, broad and rounded on both sides, resulting in significant subapical narrowing of tenth tergum in dorsal view. Setose warts not elevated, well separated on middle of tergum. Clasper moderately robust, basal segment widening after midpoint, caudal segment with blunt rounded apex except for medially directed pointed tip on apex. Phallotheca with elongated and enlarged base, dorsum very straight up to the tip of the phallus without upcurving. Ventral surface more triangular than sinuate. Subapical ventral keel not wide but very long, forming triangular configuration of the ventrum. Phallotremal sclerites vertically elongated and rounded. Sclerous band of endophallus just visible. Lobules of ventral endothecal lobe very small, membranous. Endothecal process elongated, semicircular and shifted to a more vertical position so its articulation plane is not vertical but ventrally oblique; a sharp narrowing at ventral meeting plane of endothecal process and distal end of subapical ventral keel.
 This species is most closely related to P. korasha but has the spur formula 144, and differs in the venation, phallic apparatus and tenth tergum. The species is named after part of the type locality.

description: Chamber music originated in the intimate setting of a small room, or chamber, but has in recent times found a large and appreciative audience at performances in mainstream concert halls. In parallel, many artists and promoters are recreating the intimate concert experience in small venues, many of which are community venues away from the mainstream venue circuit. Australia’s Artico Ensemble is a quartet of professional musicians specialising in creating chamber music performances in small community venues such as churches, museums, and private homes in and around Brisbane, Queensland. Their experiences form the basis of this Doctoral research study, in which a mixed-method ethnographic case study of Artico Ensemble investigates the experience of engaging in this type of performance from the viewpoint of the three partners involved: the artists, the audience and the venue administrators. In this dissertation, the four ensemble members provide the artists’ story, and results of an audience survey create a demographical profile of Artico Ensemble’s audience members, an analysis of their listening and concert attending habits and an exploration of their experience of attending the specific case study concert. Personal interviews with venue administrators highlight their experience of and motives for undertaking management of these events. Generated by the study’s second line of enquiry, this dissertation also presents findings regarding the strengths and challenges of this type of music making for all involved. To clarify its context, comparisons are drawn with International and Australian literature investigating arts participation, audience and community engagement, and the chamber music experience. As a member of Artico Ensemble, my position as artist and researcher will provide the lived-in experience of self-reflective and practice-led artistic research. This doctoral study crosses over into practice-based research through the inclusion of two short documentary trailers, which have served to generate data as well as highlight study findings.

description: We address one of the open problems in quantization theory recently listed by Rieffel. By developping in detail Connes' tangent groupoid principle and using previous work by Landsman, we show how to construct a strict, flabby quantization, which is moreover an asymptotic morphism and satisfies the reality and traciality constraints, on any oriented Riemannian manifold. That construction generalizes the standard Moyal rule. The paper can be considered as an introduction to quantization theory from Connes' point of view.
