Taming Passion for the Public Good: Policing Sex in the Early Republic. By Mark E. Kann (New York: New York University Press, 2013. vii plus 236 pp. $49.00)

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

In this brief but ambitious book Mark Kann tackles complex questions: why and how did America's civic leaders seek to police sex in the early republic? How did concerns about gender, race, and class shape their efforts? What factors undermined attempts to proscribe different kinds of sexual activity? In exploring these issues Kann discusses reform campaigns against prostitution, masturbation, and homosexuality. He stresses how middle-class Anglo Americans supported these campaigns when they targeted groups deemed threatening to the social order, such as people of color; urban white youth, especially working-class males; and “public” women who lived outside the power of family patriarchs. The author expertly incorporates the recent historiography of antebellum sexuality into his analysis. In fact the major strength of Taming Passion for the Public Good is Kann's cogent discussion of monographs by Clare Lyons, Richard Godbeer, Helen Lefkowitz Horowitz, and other scholars. But unfortunately Kann does not build on these historians' works to offer new perspectives on antebellum Americans' policing of sexuality. Ultimately he is content to summarize, synthesize, the rich scholarship already in existence.
LMMSE Processing for Cell-free Massive MIMO with Radio Stripes and MRC Fronthaul

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

Cell-free massive MIMO provides ubiquitous connectivity for multiple users, and implementation using radio stripes is very efficient. Compared with collocated massive MIMO, the major cost includes fronthaul overheads and AP hardware. Maximum ratio combination (MRC) achieves a low fronthaul loading and low-cost AP, but the performance is bad. This letter proposes to implement a quasi-LMMSE (Q-LMMSE) processing using MRC fronthaul design. Q-LMMSE is derived from a standard LMMSE, which gains interference information from MRC signal via singular value decomposition. Simulation results show that the proposed Q-LMMSE increases the spectral efficiency by several times using same MRC fronthaul.
Improvement in consonant recognition with amplification: Correlations with PTA and PTCs

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

Presbyacusic listeners with moderate sloping sensorineural bearing impairment were presented the California Consonant Test in three conditions: unaided; with flat frequency response aid; and with high-frequency emphasis hearing aid. Frequency selectivity was assessed using the metric Q1 octave, for a simultaneous pure tone masking paradigm. Three distinct error patterns were found when the data from the unaided and aided conditions were compared: (1) errors on a phone disappeared with amplification (e.g./t∫); (2) errors changed from one phone to another with amplification (e.g./for/s/); and (3) the errors were the same and were not eliminated by amplification (for the stop consonants). In the latter case, the best correlation of PTA for any set of frequencies and improvement in stop consonant recognition was −0.35; the best correlation of Q1 octave and improvement in stop recognition under aided conditions was 0.63. Even though Q1 octave was a better predictor of improvement than was the PTA, the range of improvement with similar Q scores was considerable.
Sensitivity of Citrobacter freundii and Citrobacter koseri to cephalosporins and penicillins

Field: Immunology and Microbiology (Life Sciences)

An examination of 99 field and reference strains of Citrobacter freundii showed 79% of them to be resistant to cephaloridine and sensitive to carbenicillin, while 96% of 45 field and reference strains of Citrobacter koseri examined were sensitive to cephaloridine and resistant to carbenicillin. Susceptibility tests with these two antibiotics are therefore useful in separating the two species of Citrobacter.
Fracture Mechanics of Bond Failure in the “Pure Shear” Test Piece

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

Abstract The “pure shear” test piece consists of a thin, rectangular strip of rubber held by or bonded to rigid grips along its long edges. When the grips are pulled apart, the rubber in the center of the test piece is in a deformed state close to pure shear. This test piece is commonly used for studies of fracture in rubber (rubber tear) because it is amenable to simple fracture mechanics analyses. The “pure shear” test piece may also be used for study of failure at the rubber-to-metal bond. Its geometry and manner of loading make it especially useful for study of long-term durability of bonds in corrosive environments such as in a salt fog chamber. This paper discusses non-linear finite element analysis results for failure at the bond of the “pure shear” test piece. Results are compared with well-known results for analogous cases in rubber tear. Short and long cracks located in the center and at the free edges are considered.
Motorcycle theft prevention and recovery security system

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

Transportation plays a big part of our daily lives. Every year, people in the Philippines are increasingly using vehicles especially motorcycles as their common means of transportation. Together with the increase of motorcycle users, motorcycle theft is also rampant over the years. In this study, a system had been developed for theft prevention and recovery of motorcycle in an easier and faster way. The user of this system will be notified through an alert once the motorcycle has been moved in a long distance or stolen. The user also could view the current location of the motorcycle, shutdown the engine and capture an image of the thief. The system has two components, the hardware and the software modules. The hardware component includes micro-controller, GSM, GPS, and a camera. The software component is the mobile application, which is the medium of communication of the user to the motorcycle and also serve as the main controller of the entire system. Based on the evaluation conducted in terms of usability and functionality it had been found out that most of the users strongly agreed the usefulness of the system.
(Invited) Controlled Large-Area Lithium Deposition to Reduce Swelling of High-Energy Lithium Metal Pouch Cells in Liquid Electrolytes

Field: Materials Science (Physical Sciences)

Lithium (Li) metal battery technology, renowned for its high energy density, faces practical challenges, particularly concerning large volume change and cell swelling. Despite the profound impact of external pressure on cell performance, there is a notable gap in research regarding the interplay between external pressure and electroplating behaviors of Li + in large-format pouch cells. Here we delve into the impact of externally applied pressure on electroplating and stripping of Li in 350 Wh/kg pouch cells. Employing a hybrid design, we monitor and quantify self-generated pressures, correlating them with observed charge-discharge processes. A two-stage cycling process is proposed, revealing controlled pouch cell swelling of less than 10%, comparable to state-of-the-art Li-ion batteries. The pressure distribution across the cell surface unveils a complex Li + detour behavior during electroplating, highlighting the need for innovative strategies to address uneven Li plating and enhance Li metal battery technology.

ScBlkCom: An Integrated Compression Algorithm for Single-Cell RNA Sequencing Data

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

High-throughput sequencing advancements have shifted genomic project bottlenecks from data generation to computational storage and analysis. Single-cell RNA-seq (scRNA-seq) data exhibits unique structural features, including extensive labeled sequence identifiers, which conventional compression tools fail to optimize. This study proposes ScBlkCom, a specialized compression scheme for scRNA-seq data. The method partitions sequencing data into distinct blocks and applies tailored compression strategies: differential encoding for numerical attributes, Huffman coding for categorical labels, and context-adaptive encoding for sequence identifiers. Experiments demonstrate ScBlkCom achieves 84.29% higher compression gain compared to single-module approaches and outperforms generic tools (e.g., GZIP, BZIP2) by 6.44% in compression ratio, while maintaining stable processing speeds. This block-wise adaptive framework effectively addresses scRNA-seq data redundancy, offering enhanced storage efficiency for large-scale single-cell studies.
Subjective Wellbeing

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

The cross‐cultural importance of happiness and contentment can be inferred from their emergence in philosophical discussions across many cultural traditions. Aristotle linked happiness to virtuous behavior; Bentham regarded it as the basis for an overarching moral principle. An appeal of Buddhist meditation is the sense of contentment and freedom from suffering that mindful awareness can bring. Even Confucius—whose emphasis on social harmony and righteous action invites the image of a stern, conservative scholar—was said to be a man “whose life was full of joy”, a characteristic that may have been as appealing to his many disciples as his teachings.

A Macroeconomic (Simultaneous Equation) Model Of The Estonian Dairy Sector

Field: Economics, Econometrics and Finance (Social Sciences)

The primary objective of present study was the creation of a macroeconomic (simultaneousequation) model of Estonian dairy sector. Simultaneous equation modelling provides a new approach toeconomic analysis. Using the approach pioneered by FAPRI, a macroeconomic model of Estonian dairysector has been created. The FAPRI is a dynamic, partial equilibrium, global econometric model. This paperoutlines the linkage between dairy sector and input sectors. The stochastic equations are estimated by twostage least squares (2SLS). The equations were estimated using data from 1993 to 2005 inclusive. Most ofthe parameters of all structural equations have theoretically consistent signs and are significant. Projectionsof the main endogenous variables are made for a five-year period. Example equations are illustrative. Someresults from the simulation of the model are presented. The projections include impact of the milk quotaproposals on number of dairy cows and on total milk production in Estonia. The results are analysed.Perspective implementation of Estonian dairy sector model is considered. The experimental econometricdairy model of the Estonian agriculture may be used for projection and analysis purposes.
Questioni agrarie o questioni del lavoro? La questione agraria e la sue irrilevanza per il lavoro rurale nell'India neo-liberista

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

This article reinterrogates the positions on the agrarian question in India, to reach fresh conclusions about important agrarian policies of the left, including that of land reforms. Internationally, the classic political economy approach to agrarian transitions has been challenged by positions arguing a) that neoliberalism and the international corporate food regime has led to a new dominant contradiction between the peasantry and multinational agribusiness or, b) that the agrarian question for capital has been bypassed. It is shown that most analyses of the agrarian question in India, including those of Indian left parties, tend to adhere either to the classic political economy approach, or their analyses are close to the peasantry versus the corporate food regime approach. In spite of this, it is here argued that an empirical analysis of agrarian transition in India lends credence to some aspects of the third position, i.e. the argument that the agrarian question for capital has been bypassed. The article finishes with a discussion of the political implications of this.
Benthic macroinvertebrate as biological indicator for water quality in Sungai Penchala

Field: Environmental Science (Physical Sciences)

Sungai Penchala is one of the main tributaries for Sungai Klang which flows through the urban area of Wilayah Persekutuan Kuala Lumpur before merging with Sungai Klang in the Petaling Jaya district. As urban river, Sungai Penchala is polluted because of anthropogenic activities and this include direct garbage load, untreated drainage system from nearby residential area and also runoff from frequent heavy rain as the country located in tropical area. Currently, there are efforts from government and educational sectors to monitor and rehabilitate the river with vision to return it into its former natural function and not as a sink for urban population. Unlike pristine or recreational river, the water quality of urban river changes drastically over day even hours. Thus there is need for a procedure that can be used for water quality inspection in time of sampling but also provides reliable information that can resemble past event. Therefore, to do that the river monitoring was carried out by employing the traditional physical-chemical parameter by using Hydrolab Quanta® multi parameter reader. The benthic macroinvertebrate was collected using Surber's sampler and preserved in 95% ethanol for identification purposes. The data collected was analyzed for Water Quality Index (WQI) and Biological Monitoring Working Party (BMWP) to determine the river condition. The system used has its own strength and weakness but when employed together, it is expected to give better knowledge in evaluating river condition. Thus, increase the accuracy of evaluation process. In this study, the biological monitoring shows that changes in water quality influence the diversity of benthic macroinvertebrate. This study prove that biological monitoring by utilizing benthic macroinvertebrate can also be used in determining water quality of urban type river. It is also produced result that more readily interprets as it reveal past event disturbance which sometimes missed by physical-chemical parameters.
Strong,\nTough, and\nBiocompatible Poly(vinyl alcohol)–Poly(vinylpyrrolidone)\nMultiscale Network Hydrogels Reinforced by Aramid Nanofibers

Field: Materials Science (Physical Sciences)

Poly(vinyl\nalcohol) (PVA) hydrogels are water-rich, three-dimensional\n(3D) network materials that are similar to the tissue structure of\nliving organisms. This feature gives hydrogels a wide range of potential\napplications, including drug delivery systems, articular cartilage\nregeneration, and tissue engineering. Due to the large amount of water\ncontained in hydrogels, achieving hydrogels with comprehensive properties\nremains a major challenge, especially for isotropic hydrogels. This\nstudy innovatively prepares a multiscale-reinforced PVA hydrogel from\nmolecular-level coupling to nanoscale enhancement by chemically cross-linking\npoly(vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP) and in situ assembled aromatic polyamide\nnanofibers (ANFs). The optimized ANFs–PVA–PVP (APP)\nhydrogels have a tensile strength of ≈9.7 MPa, an elongation\nat break of ≈585%, a toughness of ≈31.84 MJ/m<sup>3</sup>, a compressive strength of ≈10.6 MPa, and a high-water content\nof ≈80%. It is excellent among all reported PVA hydrogels and\neven comparable to some anisotropic hydrogels. System characterizations\nshow that those performances are attributed to the particular multiscale\nload-bearing structure and multiple interactions between ANFs and\nPVA. Moreover, APP hydrogels exhibit excellent biocompatibility and\na low friction coefficient (≈0.4). These valuable performances\npave the way for broad potential in many advanced applications such\nas biological tissue replacement, flexible wearable devices, electronic\nskin, and <i>in vivo</i> sensors.
Combustion Air Humidtiy Controller for Calorific Value Determination of Fuel Gas

Field: Chemical Engineering (Physical Sciences)

In the calorific value determination of fuel gases by water-flow calorimeter, the significant error is caused by lower and higher humidity of combustion air introduced to the calorimeter. To improve this disadvantage, humidity adjustable air humidifier was designed. Combustion air humidity is measured by wet- and dry-bulb psychrometer in the unit and controlled to desired humidity by two damper-type regulators fitted in dry and wetted air streams.This controller is connectable to the Japanese Industrial Standards type calorimeter without any modification. And it was found that the error is eliminated almost completely by the humidity controller.
Regulating Impairment

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

Abstract Chapter 3 examines the classification of athletes’ impairments for the purpose of competition. It offers a history of the development of Para sport and the advent of sport classes. It then details the classification process before delving into some of the controversies that process engenders. As that history evolved, several controversies have emerged, including those related to the deceptive practice of intentional misrepresentation, eligibility, sport class assignment, reclassification, and discrimination. It also considers scenarios wherein impairment may be an advantage, particularly when it comes to the use of prostheses and other assistive devices.
Assignment of function to a domain of unknown function: DUF1537 is a new kinase family in catabolic pathways for acid sugars

Field: Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology (Life Sciences)

Significance Domain of unknown function (DUF) families constitute 3,892 of the 16,295 families in the Pfam database (release 29.0). Given their biological importance, large-scale strategies are required to accomplish their functional assignments. Here, we illustrate an integrated “genomic enzymology” strategy to identify diverse functions within the DUF1537 family (PF07005). We combined high-throughput ligand screening results for transport system solute binding proteins with the synergetic analysis of sequence similarity networks and genome neighborhood networks to establish that the members of the DUF1537 family are novel ATP-dependent four-carbon sugar kinases. This study illustrates the utility of this strategy and enhances our knowledge of bacterial carbohydrate catabolism.
Protein-Procyanidin Interaction and Nutritional Quality of Dry Beans

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Thermodynamic analysis of the temperature dependance of procyanidin binding to bovine serum albumin (BSA) and bean glycoprotein G-1 suggested predominantly hydrophobic and hydrophilic binding, respectively. A cis-parinaric acid fluorescence assay for surface hydrophobicity supported amphiphilic interactions of procyanidin. Heat denatured G-1 had a surface hydrophobicity greater than native G-1. Procyanidin dimer and trimer inhibited trypsin digestion of BSA. In vitro digestibility and Tetrahymena-Protein Efficiency Ratio (t-PER) were inversely related to procyanidin concentration. Procyanidin intubation restricts rat growth and damages intestinal villi. Procyanidins intubated with food or as dry beans were not as inhibitory as procyanidins intubated alone. Digestibility and PER of tempeh prepared with red beans and corn were less than the digestibility and PER of soybean tempeh. Tempeh, Rhizopus oligosporus, fermentation did not improve digestibility or nutritional quality of dry black beans.
Improving the precision of the methods for vibration acceleration measurement using micromechanical capacitive accelerometers

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

The chapter describes the theoretical and experimental investigation of the influence produced by bias error during capacitive accelerometer installation on results of vibration acceleration measurements, which determines the origin of additive error component in the process of measuring conversion of a nonelectrical value into an electrical one. It is shown that this error appears during the installation and mechanical fixation of an accelerometer at the measurement object, and with normal deviation from the perpendicularity of the accelerometer, it may reach 0.855 m/s2, being at its maximum in the horizontal measuring axis. The authors proposed the method for lowering the accelerometer installation error and the structural diagram of intelligent self-calibrating measuring channel of vibration acceleration, which ensures automatic deletion of this error component from measurement results.
Understanding the Frequency- and Time-Dependent Behavior of Ballistic Carbon-Nanotube Transistors

Field: Materials Science (Physical Sciences)

The high-frequency and time-dependent behavior of carbon-nanotube (CN) transistors is examined by numerically solving the time-dependent Boltzmann transport equation self-consistently with the Poisson equation. The two-port admittance matrix, containing the transistor's y -parameters, is extracted. At frequencies below the transistor's unity-current-gain frequency fT , the y -parameters are shown to agree with those predicted from a quasi-static description of transistor operation, provided that the partitioning factor for the device charge is extracted through application of an appropriate time-dependent ramp voltage to the gate. The physics of time-dependent transport is described, and by examining the positive- and negative-going components of electron charge in the nanotube, it is shown for an nin device structure that the n regions can add a time delay to the device response, even though these regions do not affect the transistor's extrapolated fT . For very high frequencies, or for very fast transients, it is pointed out that the conventional ldquofloating boundary conditionrdquo approach, which was originally suggested for dc simulations of ballistic Mosfets, becomes questionable when applied to time-dependent simulations of nanotubes. While this paper omits collisions and focuses on an intrinsic transistor structure that excludes external parasitics, it provides a first useful step toward the full frequency- and time-dependent characterization of CN transistors.
