INTERTEXTUAL INTERVENTIONS IN THE NOVELS OF MARLENE STREERUWITZ AND

This thesis considers prose texts by the Austrian authors Marlene Streeruwitz and Lilian Faschinger from the viewpoint of intertextuality. The research does not rely on the narrow definitions of intertextuality which are concerned with the appearance of an anterior text in a later text, or on studies of source and influence. Rather my treatment of the novels considers the way meanings are constructed by a network of cultural and social discourses which embody distinct codes, expectations and assumptions. This study discusses the ways in which the chosen texts, through their intertexts, display a postmodern impetus towards reappropriating authorized discourse in new and challenging ways, from feminist perspectives.
My intertextual readings are alert to two main threads – the critique of aspects of Austrian society evident in the novels of Streeruwitz and Faschinger and their place within the tradition of Osterreich-Beschimpfung, and the interventions into issues pertaining to gender. I examine thematic similarities and differences in the texts, which draw attention to specifically Austrian or gender related issues, as well as scrutinizing formal and linguistic elements. Ultimately, my thesis poses and suggests answers to questions regarding strategies of intervention by feminist authors and the fruitfulness of intertextual readings.
PassBio: Privacy-Preserving User-Centric Biometric Authentication

The proliferation of online biometric authentication has necessitated security requirements of biometric templates. The existing secure biometric authentication schemes feature a server-centric model, where a service provider maintains a biometric database and is fully responsible for the security of the templates. The end-users have to fully trust the server in storing, processing, and managing their private templates. As a result, the end-users’ templates could be compromised by outside attackers or even the service provider itself. In this paper, we propose a user-centric biometric authentication scheme (PassBio) that enables end-users to encrypt their own templates with our proposed light-weighted encryption scheme. During authentication, all the templates remain encrypted such that the server will never see them directly. However, the server is able to determine whether the distance of two encrypted templates is within a pre-defined threshold. Our security analysis shows that no critical information of the templates can be revealed under both passive and active attacks. PassBio follows a “compute-then-compare” computational model over encrypted data. More specifically, our proposed threshold predicate encryption (TPE) scheme can encrypt two vectors x and y in such a manner that the inner product of x and y can be evaluated and compared to a pre-defined threshold. TPE guarantees that only the comparison result is revealed and no key information about x and y can be learned. Furthermore, we show that TPE can be utilized as a flexible building block to evaluate different distance metrics, such as Hamming distance and Euclidean distance over encrypted data. Such a compute-then-compare computational model, enabled by TPE, can be widely applied in many interesting applications, such as searching over encrypted data while ensuring data security and privacy.
Cracking the Code for EBD

This paper examines the implications of proposed changes KEYWORDS to the Special Educational Needs Code of Practice for England and Wales, in particular the altered criteria for determining whether children have emotional and behavioural difficulties which call for their LEA to make additional resources available to them. It is argued that those changes come from a perceived need to reduce special education expenditure and to reverse a statistical upward trend in the number of children who have special education statements. Some of the forces which may account for the proposed changes are examined.
The Ceo: An Analysis of the Cnn Telecast ‘Pinnacle’

Sirmmary.-The present study investigated leadership characteristics of Chief Executive Officers (CEOs) from major corporations in the USA. The sample was obtained from 80 verbatim interviews on the CNN broadcast "Pinnacle." 30 interviews were randomly selected and rated on 25 personalityfifestyle dimensions. The analyses indicated some consistent trends, namely, CEOs exhibited clear values, high tolerance for frustration, egalitarian attitudes, and dedication to the "work ethic." Several surprising findings were noted, such as inadequate family life and low social visibility. Implications for research on the executives' personalities were discussed. Most studies on "leadership" usually investigate managers or at best upper-level administrative personnel (see Bass, 1985b; Kotter, 1988; Kouzes & Posner, 1987; Peterson, 1987). However, there has been a growing interest in leadership development and executive succession (Bass, 1985a; Hall, 1986; Margerison & Kakabadse, 1987). Unfortunately, there are a dearth of studies of characteristics of actual Chief Executive Officers' (CEO) characteristics, personalities, or profile. Levinson and Rosenthal (1984) reported in-depth analysis of six CEOs from major U.S. corporations from interview data. Many interesting insights were gained into the personality, lifestyle, and executive functioning of these prolific business leaders. Recent research studies at the Center for Creative Leadership, in ongoing investigations of executive development, utilize an extensive test battery in assessment, including the California Psychological Inventory, FIRO-B, Managerial Job Satisfaction Questionnaire, Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, and the StrongCampbell Interest Inventory (see Campbell & Velsor, 1985). The study of leadership has been plagued by theoretical, definitional, and methodological difficulties; the impetus for the present study reflects, in part, this last concern. The perennial problem in the study of CEOs is one of "accessibility." The current investigation circumvented this problem by conducting a content analysis of data from televised interviews. An ideal opportunity arose when CNN Broadcasting2 began the weekly half-hour telecast "Pinnacle" on cable network several years ago. Primarily, the program is a semistructured interview of leading CEOs of major firms in the USA. The interviews encompassed such areas as family background, childhood influences, educational and mhtary experience, philosophy of life, management style, organizational goals, and personal idiosyncrasies.
COMMUNICATING THE INTANGIBLE: AN ANISHNAABEG STORY

The Euroamerican coauthor of this study initially became involved in the enterprise of crosscultural interpretation in the area of classical sinology. Trained in literary Chinese by the inductive method (Creel 193852), the problems associated with internalizing an alien mindset due to linguistic differences never arose. The inductive method taught the classical Chinese language by avoiding the teaching of grammar and rhetoric, substituting instead the assimilation of the language through learning to think in the language. In other words, the method was similar to the way traditional Chinese learned literary Chinese: the memorization of texts on ethics and morality to develop vocabulary in the context of acculturation. The effect on the coauthor was a shift in the basic perceptions of reality from one of the possibilities of Indo-European language cultures to that of traditional Chinese culture. The process was enhanced by the parallels of lifestyles in that both Euroamerican, at least in the 1960s, and traditional Chinese culture were socio-politically stratified, with intellectuals assumed to be minimally upper middle-class regardless of actual economic circumstances, and highly literate. Continuing education in the tradition by becoming close friends with some of the last generation of Chinese to be KEN PITAWANAKWAT IS AN ANISHNAABE HEALER IN TRAINING.
Preparation and characterization of Cu-SiC composite coatings

Cu-SiC composite coatings were prepared by ultrasonic-mechanical stirring-electrodeposition method.The preparation technology was optimized with orthogonal experiments,and the surface performances were investigated using scanning electron microscopy,energy dispersive spectrometer and wear test machine.The results indicate that the optimal parameters are listed as follows: ultrasonic power 200 W,stirring rate 300 r/min,SiC concentration 8 g/L,and current density 5 A/dm2.A compact surface and fine grain size of Cu-SiC composite coating can be obtained by using ultrasonic mechanical stirring-electrodeposition method,and the composite plating solution is stable.The Cu-SiC composite coating prepared with optimal parameters has better wear resistance.
The Specification and Refinement of an Environmental Model

When specifying a reactive system, we need to consider both the system itself, and the environment it operates in. A suitable formalism for such a task is the Event Calculus, a theory of synchronised state machines which lends itself to diagrammatic representation and which can be conveniently formulated in Z. In this paper we describe an approach to behavioural refinement in the Event Calculus, We consider a gas burner, starting with an outline description of its physical behaviour, then refining this by adding additional details and constraints. Each refinement step is achieved by adding a new (and simple) state machine to our existing model.
General description of new physics in t, b and boson interactions and its unitarity constraints

We list all possible dim = 6 CP conserving and SU(3) × SU(2) × U(1) gauge invariant interactions, which could be generated in case no new particles would be reachable in the future Colliders, and the only observable New Physics would be in the form of new interactions affecting the scalar sector and the quarks of the third family. These interactions are described by operators involving the standard model scalar field, the quarks of the third family and the gauge bosons. Subsequently, we identify those operators which do not contribute to LEP1 (and lower energy) observables at tree level and are not purely gluonic. Since present measurements do not strongly constrain the couplings of these operators, we derive here the unitarity bounds on them. Finally, in order to get a feeling on the possible physical meaning of the appearance of any of these operators, we identify the operators generated in a class of renormalizable dynamical models which at the TeV scale, are fully described by the SU(3) × SU(2) × U(1) gauge group.

Late Orogenic doming in the eastern Betic Cordilleras: Final exhumation of the Nevado-Filabride complex and its relation to basin genesis: LATE OROGENIC DOMING IN THE BETICS

The geometry, timing, and kinematics of late orogenic extension in the Betic Cordilleras pose the problem of a decoupling of upper crustal and lower crustal deformation regimes. Perpendicular directions of extension in metamorphic domes and nearby sedimentary basins remain unexplained. This paper puts kinematic constraints on the final exhumation of the Nevado-Filabride complex, focusing on the formation of metamorphic domes and their relations with the adjacent basins. Structural fabrics and kinematic indicators below the main shear zones as well as their relations with both published changing metamorphic P-T conditions and geochronological data were studied. Our approach describes (1) a consistent top-to-the-west shear parallel to dome axes of during D2 (i.e., during decompression) with distributed ductile flow and the onset of strain localization along major shear zones, (2) further strain localization along the major shear zones under greenschist facies conditions, during D3 leading to S-C′ mylonites formation accompanied with a rock strong thickness reduction, (3) the divergence of shear direction on either limbs of domes during D3 showing the appearance of the dome geometry, and (4) a local evolution toward N-S brittle extension (D4) in the upper plate and formation of sedimentary basins. Continuous ductile to brittle top-to-the-west shear is compatible with the slab retreat hypothesis from the Miocene; the formation of domes which adds gravitational forces responsible for the final stages of exhumation is thus characterized by important kinematics changes necessary to explain coeval N-S opened basins. Later, from the upper Tortonian, a contractional event (D5) amplified the earlier domal structures forming the present north vergent folds.
Pulsed laser deposition of La0.67Ca0.33MnO3 thin films on LiNbO3 and surface acoustic wave studies

Surface Acoustic Waves on piezoelectric substrates can be used to investigate the dynamic conductivity of thin films in a non-contact and very sensitive way, especially at low conductivities. Here, we report on such surface acoustic wave studies to characterize thin manganite film like La 0.67 Ca 0.33 MnO 3 , exhibiting a Jan Teller effect with a strong electron phonon interaction and a metal insulator transition at high temperatures. We report on the deposition of La 0.67 Ca 0.33 MnO 3 on piezoelectric substrates (LiNbO 3 in different crystal cuts, employing a pulsed laser deposition technique. The structural quality of the thin films are examined by X-Ray Diffraction, Scanning Electron Microscope and Energy Dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. For the electrical characterization, we employ the surface acoustic wave technique, accompanied by conventional direct current resistance measurements for comparison.
Communities of Knowledge: Teaching and Learning in Maritime Archaeology

This paper explores the points of contact and divergence between education, training and experience in maritime archaeology. In particular, it is proposed that whilst it is worth developing McGrail’s (Studies in maritime archaeology. British Archaeological Reports, Oxford, 1997) discussion of what should be included when we teach Maritime archaeology, more might be gained from moving beyond individual opinions of instructors. As such, this paper includes an exploration of both my own answers to the questions offered in the call for papers and those of past and present Southampton students. What emerges from this comparison is that by focusing too closely on the specifics of what is (or should be) taught, we miss out on what students actually gain from courses and more broadly what we gain as a community.
Fibromyalgia and women's pursuit of personal goals: a daily process analysis.

For 30 days, 50 women with primary fibromyalgia syndrome reported daily progress and effort toward a health-fitness and a social-interpersonal goal and the extent to which their pain and fatigue hindered their accomplishment. They also carried palmtop computers to assess their sleep and their pain, fatigue, and positive and negative mood throughout the day. Analyses of the person-day data set showed that on days during which pain or fatigue increased from morning to evening, participants perceived their goal progress to be more attenuated by pain and fatigue. Unrestorative sleep the night before predicted the following day's effort and progress toward accomplishing health-fitness goals, but not social-interpersonal goals. Finally, participants who reported more progress toward social-interpersonal goals on a given day were more likely to evidence improvements in positive mood across the day, regardless of any changes in pain or fatigue that day.
La Libertad en la obra de Nicolás Gómez Dávila.

The Colombian writer Nicolas Gomez Davila has the rare quality of having spar-ked the enthusiasm of dissident writers such as Savater or Volpi. His uniqueness 
as a literary reactionary distances him from conservative thinking and in his criti-cism of the modern world he ties in with the Dostoevsky, Nietzsche and Schopen-hauer school of thought. The claim for specific individual freedom and his criticism 
of political power, where there are also echoes of the reflections of the Romanian 
writer Cioran, is very relevant.
Building the Pamirs: The view from the underside

The Pamir mountains are an outstanding example of extreme crustal shortening during continental collision that may have been accommodated by formation of a thick crust—much thicker than is currently thought—and/or by continental subduction. We pre- sent new petrologic data and radiometric ages from xenoliths in Miocene volcanic rocks in the southeastern Pamir mountains that suggest that Gondwanan igneous and sedimentary assemblages were underthrust northward, buried to .50-80 km during the ear- ly stage of the India-Asia collision, and then heated and partly melted during subsequent thermal relaxation before finally being blasted to the surface. These xenoliths, the deepest crustal samples recovered from under any active collisional belt, provide direct evidence for early Cenozoic thickening of the Pamirs and lower- crustal melting during collision; the xenoliths also suggest that the present mountain range was a steady-state elevated plateau for most of the Cenozoic.
Marx, verdade e discurso

This paper attempts to show that Marx always tried to understand and explain the (social) existence of the theories that were object of his criticism. And that means to say that in his critique the emphasis was not placed upon logic or epistemology. In other words, the paper stresses the ontological nature of Marx’s thought. But the ontological character of Marx’s thought is reclaimed here from a perspective at odds with the contemporary and philosophical atmosphere, in which ontology is evoked just to be next dismissed as relative. To show the relevance of Marx’s ontology to the ongoing debates, the article relies upon some aspects of the work of Searle, a non-Marxist contemporary critic of the ontological relativism.
Revolution and the Word: The Rise of the Novel in America.@@@Susanna Rowson: Charlotte Temple.@@@Hannah W. Foster: The Coquette.

Revolution and the Word offers a unique perspective on the origins of American fiction, looking not only at the early novels themselves but at the people who produced them, sold them, and read them. It shows how, in the aftermath of the American Revolution, the novel found a special place among the least privileged citizens of the new republic. As Cathy N. Davidson explains, early American novels--most of them now long forgotten--were a primary means by which those who bought and read them, especially women and the lower classes, moved into the higher levels of literacy required by a democracy. This very fact, Davidson shows, also made these people less amenable to the control of the gentry who, naturally enough, derided fiction as a potentially subversive genre. Combining rigorous historical methods with the newest insights of literacy theory, Davidson brilliantly reconstructs the complex interplay of politics, ideology, economics, and other social forces that governed the way novels were written, published, distributed, and understood. Davidson also shows, in almost tactile detail, how many Americans lived during the Constitutional era. She depicts the life of the traveling book peddler, the harsh lot of the printer, the shortcomings of early American schools, the ambiguous politics of novelists like Brackenridge and Tyler, and the lost lives of ordinary women like Tabitha Tenney and Patty Rogers. Drawing on a vast body of material--the novels themselves as well as reviews, inscriptions in cherished books, letters and diaries, and many other records--Davidson presents the genesis of American literature in its fullest possible context.
Radical production by hydrogen peroxide/bicarbonate and copper uptake in mammalian cells: modulation by Cu(II) complexes.

The presence of the bicarbonate/carbon dioxide pair is known to accelerate the transition metal ion-catalysed oxidation of various biotargets. It has been shown that stable Cu(II) complexes formed with imine ligands that allow redox cycling between Cu(I) and Cu(II) display diverse apoptotic effects on cell cultures. It is also reported that Cu(II)-tetraglycine can form a stable Cu(III) complex. In the present study, radical generation from H(2)O(2) and H(2)O(2)/HCO(3)(-) in the presence of these two different classes of Cu(II) complexes was evaluated by monitoring the oxidation of dihydrorhodamine 123 and NADH and by the quantitative determination of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARs method). Cu(II)-imine complexes produced low levels of reactive species whereas Cu(II)-Gly-derived complexes, as well as the free Cu(II) ion, produced oxygen-derived radicals in significantly larger amounts. The effects of these two classes of complexes on mammalian tumour cell viability were equally distinct, in that Cu(II)-imine complexes caused apoptosis, entered in cell and remained almost unaffected in high levels whilst, at the same concentrations, Cu(II)-Gly peptide complexes and Cu(II) sulphate stimulated cell proliferation, with the cell managing copper efficiently. Taken together, these results highlight the different biological effects of Cu(II) complexes, some of which have been recently studied as anti-tumour drugs and radical system generators, and also update the effects of reactive oxygen species generation on cell cycle control.
The Lacy Hotel Site: Gender Ideologies and Domestic Activities in a 19th Century Boardinghouse Context

The Lacy Hotel was a part of the "Great Locomotive Chase", a significant historical event in Kennesaw, Georgia during the Civil War (AD 1861-1864), yet little is known of this site. The Lacy Hotel was a boardinghouse that operated for roughly six years until General William Tecumseh Sherman burned it in 1864. This research utilizes historical records along with archaeological fieldwork in order to provide a more detailed analysis of daily life within the Lacy household. Dominant ideologies influence the roles of women concerning their activities and choices of consumption within the household. Although the results show that the boardinghouse is not a typical household, the social dynamics and consumption are still constrained by the culture and ideology of the time period. In conclusion, this research offers a case study about the role of women on the eve of turmoil and contends that the boardinghouse is emblematic of broader changes within the rural South during the 19 th century.
