[ "NEW HAVEN -- There was, with really no notable exception, an absence of discussion of the Afghanistan war during the course of the 2010 campaign. ", "But that may have been more a product of the electoral landscape (congressional races often don't lend themselves to foreign policy debates) and strategic timelines (the start date for withdrawal begins in July 2011) than anything else.", "\n\nAnd, indeed, during an interview Sunday morning, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) provided some indication that Republicans would push U.S. permanency in Afghanistan in the years ahead, insisting that it would be \"enormously beneficial\" to show that type of force \"in perpetuity.\"", "\n\n\"I think it would be enormously beneficial to the region as well as Afghanistan,\" Graham said on NBC's \"Meet the Press.\" \"", "We have had air bases all over the world and a couple of air bases in Afghanistan would allow the Afghan security forces an edge against the Taliban in perpetuity. ", "It would be a signal to Pakistan that the Taliban are never going to come back. ", "In Afghanistan they could change their behavior. ", "It would be a signal to the whole region that Afghanistan is going to be a different place.", "\n\n\"And if the Afghan people want this relationship, they are going to have to earn it. ", "But I hope that they will seek a relationship with the United States so we can have an enduring relationship, economic and militarily and politically, and a couple of air bases in Afghanistan will give us an edge military, give the Afghan security forces an edge militarily to ensure that the country never goes back into the hands of the Taliban, which would be a stabilizing event throughout the whole region.\"", "\n\nWATCH:\n\nThe word choice here by Graham may be a bit more dramatic than the policy prescription. ", "The United States, as he noted, does have bases in Germany and Japan more than half-a-century after World War II ended.", "\n\nBut the notion that the U.S. imprint in Afghanistan will last as long as those two is something that America does not appear comfortable swallowing. ", "Even President Obama has avoided talking about troop presences in those terms, saying only that a NATO contingent would remain in Afghanistan \"long-term.\"", "\n\n" ]

", "In somewhat erratically organized but readable essays, he is determined to get at the oghdeh, or complexes, that underscore the Iranian psyche. ", "When angry Iranians took to the street to protest the election results, the delighted Western media proclaimed the uprising “a rejection of the Islamic regime altogether,” thus playing into the hands of Ahmadinejad’s supporters, who depicted the movement as a foreign-inspired plot to overthrow the government. ", "First and foremost, the Iranians reject foreign influence and deeply revere democratic ideals. ", "Abrasive and irreverent, with humble provincial roots as the son of a blacksmith, Ahmadinejad has endeared himself to the masses by his muscling of the elite. ", "Majd looks at Iran’s grandiose aspirations abroad, as well its as pernicious support of Hezbollah; the evolving relationship with President Obama; the tenacity of Iranian Jews who insist on staying despite Ahmadinejad’s poisonous anti-Semitic statements; and the power of the mullahs." ]

", "Description of the Related Art\nThe production of sound by a musical instrument usually occurs through the interaction of three individual components. ", "First, an excitation occurs, by means of which an excitation energy is introduced into the instrument. ", "This can be the bow of a violin, for example, or the hammer of a piano or the mouthpiece and reed of a saxophone. ", "Another component involves the presence of one or more resonators, which determine the fundamental frequency of the individual tones. ", "The resonators can have constant or variable properties.", "\nResonators are, for example, the strings of a violin or guitar or the variable air column of a saxophone. ", "Together, the excitation energy introduced into the resonator, the exciting element, and the resonator lead to the production of sound.", "\nThe third component participating in the production of sound is a sound transducer or resonance body, which transforms the oscillatory energy provided by the instrument into sound levels of the surrounding air and as a result transports the oscillatory energy into the air with the greatest possible efficiency. ", "These resonance bodies are, for example, the body of a violin, the bell of a saxophone, the pickup of an electric guitar, or the loudspeaker of a guitar amplifier.", "\nThe sound transducer or resonance body is usually an acoustic or electroacoustic impedance transducer and is typically designed so that the instrument will produce a high perceptible volume. ", "In addition, the sound transducer or resonance body has the task of forming the frequency spectrum of the instrument, so that, in this way, the instrument will produce a beautiful and characteristic sound.", "\nThe character of the sound influenced by the resonance body is the essential factor in determining the perceived quality of a musical instrument and thus also the quality of a musical performance. ", "The acoustic properties of the sound transducer are determined both by its geometry and by the selected materials.", "\nFrom an acoustic standpoint, the individual sound character of an instrument is determined by the so-called “formants”. ", "These formants are narrow-band peaks in the frequency spectrum and are usually independent of the pitch being played. ", "The human ear reacts with great sensitivity to these formants by a process of pattern recognition, so that even musically untrained people are easily able to differentiate the sound of a violin from the sound of a viola, even though the instruments differ essentially only through the size of their sound bodies.", "\nBecause of the large number of physical parameters which determine the sound impression of a certain sound transducer or of the resonance body, it usually turns out also to be an extremely complicated matter to provide a resonance body with a precisely predetermined sound profile. ", "Another essential problem is encountered when a relatively large number of resonance bodies are to be produced with essentially the same predetermined sound impressions.", "\nIt is known from DE 103 92 940 T5 that an acoustic signal generated by a sound transducer of a musical instrument can be modified. ", "The sound transducer is provided with an adjustable oscillation profile. ", "The oscillation signal is modified by the use of a signal processor.", "\nUS 2005/0045027 A1 describes a variable memory for frequency responses to be determined in order to adapt the sound of a musical instrument to other specified instruments.

[ "Up Against the Wall: Ozomatli is unafraid to challenge the powers that be.", "\n\nBeats for Peace\n\nIs Ozomatli the most dangerous band in America or just a bunch of beat-crazy dreamers?", "\n\nBy Jeff Chang\n\nWHEN Ozomatli led its audience out into the streets of Austin, Texas, this past March during that city's South by Southwest Music Festival, it had no idea what it was in for. ", "The band usually closes its deliriously dance-inducing sets by starting a samba-style parade line. ", "Austin cops didn't like the idea and attempted to stop the band in its tracks. ", "The incident was reminiscent of another from the 2000 election season in Los Angeles at the Democratic Convention, when police ended Ozomatli's outdoor show with Rage Against the Machine by firing teargas and beating dozens of fans.", "\n\nAfter confusion and chaos, two of the members—bandleader Wil-Dog Abers, percussionist Jiro Yamaguchi and manager Amy Blackman-Romero were arrested and jailed. ", "They discovered that they had violated Austin's noise ordinance, an archaic law entirely at odds with the spirit of the city's famed annual music festival. ", "While attempting to find out why they were being stopped, Abers and Blackman-Romero were charged with interfering with an arrest and failure to comply. ", "Yamaguchi had tried to lift his big drum above the fray and accidentally hit a cop with it. ", "He now faced up to 10 years in prison for allegedly assaulting an officer.", "\n\nIn early July, the Ozo 3 pleaded no contest to reduced charges that will be expunged from their records if they commit no further offenses in Austin during the next six months. ", "The band issued a statement that read: \"This was a harrowing experience and a frightening thing to have hanging over our heads. ", "We are also still shocked and outraged that it ever escalated to the point that it did, and that we were jailed and criminalized in the first place. ", "We are musicians, and we were just playing music when this whole thing spiraled out of control.\"", "\n\nThe irony of the Austin incident is that the L.A.-based Ozomatli has never been afraid to confront the powers that be. ", "The band got started after Abers, fellow Ozomatli founder Anton Morales (who is no longer with the group) and fellow Conservation Corps youths tried to organize a labor union and were squelched. ", "Although Abers, Morales and the organizers were fired, they reached a compromise through which they were given a downtown space to set up a community center. ", "Through the weekly jam parties to raise funds for what they came to call the Peace and Justice Center, the band came together.", "\n\nIn the mid-'90s swirl of Los Angeles musical movements, particularly hip-hop and rock en español, the center jams attracted wildly divergent players. ", "Abers, a huge fan of the Clash, was playing bass for then-unsigned Macy Gray. ", "Lead singer Asdrubal Sierra and percussionist Justin \"Nino\" Poree came from salsa and Afro-Cuban roots. ", "Turntablist Cut Chemist and rapper Chali 2Na were part of L.A.'s True School vanguard. ", "Yamaguchi was studying tabla and world percussion at CalArts. ", "He says, \"When we got together it was like, 'We got turntables, and we got tablas—fuck it, let's figure something we can do.'\"", "\n\nAlmost a decade later, that community center band regularly sees its albums go Top 5 on Billboard's Latin charts. ", "In 2001, the band scored a Grammy for Best Latin Rock/Alternative Album for its sophomore effort, Embrace the Chaos. ", "Ozomatli has been embraced by its own musical heroes—artists like Carlos Santana, Los Lobos and Eddie Palmieri.", "\n\nIt's easy to hear what those Latin giants like about Ozomatli. ", "In the tradition of Latin artists from Willie Colon to Selena, the band's impulse has been to connect the dots between divergent genres in often surprising ways, while always grounding the music in a groove that moves.", "\n\nJust months after beginning to jam, the band was playing underground hip-hop (\"Cut Chemist Suite\"), Central American revolutionary-influenced ballads (\"Aqui No Sera\") and straight-up weee-hah backyard norteño (\"La Misma Cancion\"). \"", "At least one of us would know the style, and through that, we would kind of teach each other,\" says Abers. \"", "There was no rule, other than the people that knew the music would make a judgment call. ", "If people got excited about it, that was the most important thing.\"", "\n\nA 1996 trip to Cuba sealed Ozomatli's musical direction, or more precisely, directions. ", "Fascinated by how Afro-Cuban music seemed to absorb everything yet retain its essence all at once, the band members gained a confidence about their whirlpool approach. ", "Yamaguchi summarizes Ozomatli's approach by way of analogy: \"The rhythms of music from around the world are actually very similar. ", "I guess some of the instrumentation is different, but a lot of rhythms that are used are not that different as people might expect. ", "It's not hard to get that feel.\"", "\n\nOn Street Signs, their fifth and best release yet, the band rises to astonishing new heights of musicality and groove, expanding its sonic depth with the strings of the Prague Orchestra and the dancehall riddimics of Blaxx and Vendetta. ", "In a beautiful two-song suite, Eddie Palmieri joins the band for \"Dona Isabelle\" and \"Nadie Te Tire.\" ", "Chali 2na returns for a star turn on \"Who's to Blame?\"", "\n\nIn its most compelling turn, Ozomatli incorporates Arab sounds, including the Moroccan sintir of master player Hassan Hakmoun. ", "Yamaguchi says, \"Because of the political events that have happened in the world and who we are as a band and what we're trying to say, doing that was a great way to step into another culture and understand it through music.\"", "\n\nLyrically, the band extends the themes of its recent Coming Up EP, whose standout cut is called \"Let Me Dream.\" ", "It is moving from explicit life-during-wartime protest deeper into personal visions of peace. ", "On \"Cuando Mi Canto,\" Ozomatli admits that all its wants to do is to inspire people with its music. \"", "This album is definitely about looking to the future and what is possible and talking about it amongst all of us and trying to create that better world within our own little Ozomatli world,\" says Abers.", "\n\nCops in Boston and New York City can rest easy this year. ", "With a world tour awaiting it, Ozomatli won't have time to join this year's protest season. ", "Instead, the band hopes to make more connections. \"", "When we were in Istanbul, we couldn't speak the language, and a lot of the musicians we met couldn't speak English, yet there was communication going on. ", "I think that was because of music,\" Yamaguchi says. \"", "It's a cliché but it's true. ", "Music is just a basic human expression.\"", "\n\nOzomatli plays Saturday (Aug. 7) at the Redwood Amphitheater at Paramount's Great America in Santa Clara. ", "Plastilina Mosh and Kinky also perform. ", "Tickets are $18.50-$43.50 (Ticketmaster)." ]

", "For a W-CDMA downlink, a 3.5th-generation packet transmission scheme called HSDPA (High-Speed Downlink Packet Access) is known as a packet data transmission technique for providing a transmission rate of up to about 14 Mbps.", "\nHSDPA employs an adaptive coding modulation scheme (AMC: Adaptive Modulation and Coding) that allows transmission at a power receivable by all terminal devices located within an area covered by a base station and that allows an optimum modulation scheme to be used depending on the radio wave conditions (CQI information) between the base station and the terminal device, thereby achieving high-quality and high-speed communication. ", "There are available, as modulation schemes, a QPSK modulation scheme with high stability like W-CDMA, which is one type of PSK (Phase Shift Keying) modulation scheme, and a 16-QAM scheme allowing high-speed communication, which is one type of QAM (Quadrature Amplitude Modulation) modulation scheme. ", "Those two modulation schemes are currently used. ", "However, the PSK schemes further include BPSK and 8PSK in addition to QPSK, and the QAM schemes further include 64-QAM and 256-QAM in addition to 16-QAM. ", "That is, there are modulation schemes with different modulation levels.", "\nThe above-mentioned CQI (Channel Quality Indicator) information is a result of measurement of the signal quality (for example, SIR) by the terminal device from CPICH (common pilot channel) received from the base station. ", "The CQI information is transmitted to the base station via HS-DPCCH (High Speed Dedicated Physical Control Channel.", "\nPrimary radio channels for use in HSDPA include HS-PDSCH (High Speed-Physical Downlink Shared Channel) and HS-SCCH (High Speed-Shared Control Channel) as shared channels in the downlink direction (from the base station to the communication terminals). ", "HS-SCCH is a control channel carrying various control information, such as address information and a modulation scheme of packet data to be transmitted via HS-PDSCH, and error correction parameters. ", "The terminal device receives HS-SCCH, and can recognize the modulation scheme used for the HS-PDSCH, the error correction parameters, etc., ", "to perform demodulation and decoding for the HS-PDSCH.", "\nFurther, HSDPA employs a method in which one physical channel is shared in time division and is used by a plurality of communication terminals. ", "A scheduler located in the base station performs scheduling to determine a communication terminal to which packet data is to be transmitted and transmission parameters of the packet data in predetermined units of time according to the amount of data to be transmitted to the communication terminal, the communication quality, and the priority, thereby achieving efficient packet data transmission.", "\nSeveral algorithms for the scheduler to determine the transmission parameters have been proposed. ", "A Max CIR (Maximum Carrier to Interface power Ratio) method, an RR method (Round Robin) method, and a PF (Proportional Fairness) method that allow efficient scheduling are known.

", "In the PF method, a terminal device having the highest ratio of an average reception SIR value for the terminal device to the instantaneous SIR of each user is assigned a slot. ", "Which algorithm is to be selected depends on what evaluation amount is to be prioritized for a system.", "\nIn order to realize a mobile communication scheme that allows higher-speed communication, studies on fourth-generation communication schemes have been extensively carried out. ", "Further, in 3GPP (3rd Generation Partnership Project), studies on an LTE (Long Term Evolution) scheme, which is considered as the 3.9th generation, have been made. ", "As an LTE communication scheme, orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (hereinafter referred to as “OFDM”) is used, instead of the CDMA scheme, for realizing high-speed communication (for example, see 3GPP TR25.913 standard).", "\nThe OFDM scheme employs a method in which a carrier for modulating data is divided into a plurality of sub-carriers orthogonal to each other and data signals distributed to the sub-carriers are transmitted in parallel. ", "By performing transmission while maintaining the straight-traveling characteristics between the plurality of sub-carriers, optimum transmission efficiency for high-speed data communication can be attained.", "\nIn mobile communication based on the OFDM scheme, unlike the CDMA scheme, no spread code is used, and there is a problem in that adjacent base stations may interfere with each other when using the same channel at the same time. ", "Therefore, each base station needs to use a different channel. ", "However, if available channels are limited, the number of users that can be accommodated is also limited. ", "Thus, because of the limited number of available channels, it is desirable that adjacent base stations can use the same channel.", "\nIn order to solve this problem, a method in which a frequency reuse distance is variably set according to the distance from a terminal device to a base station has been proposed (see for example 3GPP TSG-RAN WG1 Tdoc R1-051341). ", "For example, as shown in FIG. ", "1, in a case where the total number of channels (a plurality of sub-carriers orthogonal to each other) available for communication is three, namely, CH1, CH2, and CH3, a terminal device (for example MS) that is distant from the base station (in a cell boundary area 101) is permitted to use only the CH1 by increasing the reuse distance of CH1, and is not permitted to use the same frequency as an adjacent base station, thereby minimizing any interference on neighboring cells. ", "A terminal device that is close to the base station (in a cell center area 102) is permitted to use all the frequency channels CH1, CH2, and CH3, thus reducing the reuse distance, thereby increasing the channel use efficiency.", "\nHowever, in considering a case where the conventional HSDPA scheme is directly used for OFDM communication in the downlink direction, there is a problem in that since a base station performs transmission to terminal devices at a power that allows transmission signals to reach terminal devices located in a distant area from the base station (the cell boundary area 101 shown in FIG. ", "1), the above-mentioned method in which the frequency reuse distance is variably set cannot be used for communication in the downlink direction, thus causing interference in a communication area of an adjacent base station.", "\nIn a case where HSUPA (High Speed Uplink Packet Access) for communication in the uplink direction, which corresponds to HSDPA, is used in the OFDM scheme, there is a problem in that since a terminal device performs transmission at a power that allows a transmission signal to reach a base station even if the terminal device is located anywhere in the communication area, interference may occur in a communication area of an adjacent base station.", "\nThe above-mentioned problems with a conventional mobile communication system that uses the HSDPA and HSUPA schemes for the OFDM scheme will be described with reference to FIGS.

", "The channels (CH2 and CH3) other than the first channel are hereinafter referred to as “second channels.”", "\nA cell 100-2 that is a communication area of the base station BS2 can also be divided into a cell boundary area 101-2 and a cell center area 102-2.

", "However, in a case where a transmission method using a shared channel, such as HSDPA, is used, the TPC control is not carried out, and transmission is performed at a power that covers the entire cell.

[ "A double review with\n\nIt’s not surprising that Canadians suffer from an inferiority complex when it comes to the history of the Second World War: Canada’s accomplishments are often ignored by omission, destroyed by brevity, or ruined by outright lies or fallacies.", "\n\nOne of these fallacies, as historian Marc Milner points out in his book Stopping the Panzers: The Untold Story of D-Day, is that “Canadian hesitancy and tactical ineptitude and superb German defending apparently checked the Canadian advance in the aftermath of D-Day.”", "\n\nMilner goes on to state that, according to American and British historians (and even a few of our own), German counterattacks forced the “timid Canadians ... into a defensive posture.”", "\n\nThe true and untold story, he says, is vastly different and much more interesting.", "\n\n“By the time the initial beach battles ended on 10 June 1944,” writes Milner, “3rd Canadian Division was indeed stalled on its objective, just as historians have claimed. ", "It was exhausted, battered and down 3,000 men. ", "But the Canadians were utterly unshaken, and they were surrounded by wreckage from three panzer divisions, one of them the most powerful panzer division in the west, filled with the elite of the Hitler Youth. ", "When it was all over, it was the Canadians who held the ground that the Germans needed in order to defeat Overlord.”", "\n\nThat is a story of Operation Overlord that is not normally presented to Canadians. ", "Instead, we have often been told that our role in the invasion was that of a bumbling junior partner. ", "And yet, as Milner shows so ably and in great depth, Overlord may well have collapsed follow-ing the D-Day invasion without the Canadians holding the British flank against the weight of German counterattacks.", "\n\nStopping the Panzers is a highly informative, detailed, and descriptive account of the defence of Operation Overlord. ", "And while the entire 3rd Canadian Division, including infantry and artillery, played a role in stopping the panzers, it is in many ways a story of tank warfare and how the Canadian Armoured Corps — using the American-made Sherman tank — was not “cowed” by the panzers but instead went toe-to-toe with the most fearsome tanks of the Second World War — and won.", "\n\nWhile the Sherman was smaller and had lighter armour and a lower-calibre gun compared to the German Panthers and Tigers, it was manoeuvrable and reliable. ", "The Sherman was also a relatively simple vehicle suited for mass production and customization, as seen by the numerous variants, including the Firefly with its tank-stopping 17-pounder gun, the Crab mine-clearing tank, and the Duplex Drive amphibious tank.", "\n\nThose characteristics, which certainly helped Canadian Shermans stop the panzers, also helped to make the Sherman “one of the most recognizable” and “widely used tanks,” according to Michael Haskew in his M4 Sherman Tanks: The Illustrated History of America’s Most Iconic Fighting Vehicles.", "\n\n“Seventy-five years after the prototype entered its evaluation period in the United States, elderly Sherman tanks are still seen in service,” writes Haskew. “", "From the Soviet Union to the Sinai, the Pacific to the Balkans, and the Mediterranean Basin to the hedgerows of France, the ubiquitous Sherman has compiled an incomparable service history and remains one of the most enduring and iconic weapons developed during the twentieth history.”", "\n\nThe development and production of this iconic tank is undoubtedly an American story, but once the Sherman was distributed among the Allies its story became much broader: It was no longer just America’s tank.", "\n\nHaskew’s text reflects this diversity as he explores the story of the Sherman from its roots in the First World War through to its use during the Second World War and beyond. ", "Along with a detailed history of the Sherman, Haskew includes numerous vignettes drawn from the experience of many of the international regiments to use the Sherman — including, for example, the Winnipeg-based Fort Garry Horse. ", "Unfortunately, even though Haskew has written a rich and inclusive history, the title of his book and the numerous photographs used throughout don’t reflect that.", "\n\nThe photographs, both black-and-white and colour, are excellent and do show this iconic tank in all of its stages, from production through to combat. ", "However, the photographs of U.S. Army Shermans far outnumber the images of Shermans of other armies, including Canada and Britain — despite the many photographs of Shermans held in the archives of both countries.", "\n\nAs a result, this book stands as an example of how the Canadian experience has been omitted from the record, in this case the illustrated record. ", "But, setting aside the imbalance in the imagery and the title, M4 Sherman Tank is a superb history on its own and an excellent companion to Stopping the Panzers.", "\n\nWhere M4 Sherman Tank shares the overall history of this storied tank, Stopping the Panzers tells how Canadians used it to outstanding effect during and following Operation Overlord.", "\n\nThemes associated with this article\n\nRelated to Books\n\nBook Review: Those who have been overshadowed — the intellectual predecessors to the Quiet Revolution — include Éva Circé-Côté, the subject of Lévesque’s 2010 book that has now been translated into English." ]

", "The beaded structures provide an increase in hoop strength by virtue of a localized area at the front or outer end of the collar having an increased wall thickness and hence increased volume of collar material.", "\nOne of the problems, however, with the provision of a bead on the collar for increased stand-off is that the collar now has an uneven distribution of material over its length. ", "This can result in unequal filling of the pin lock grooves and, perhaps more importantly, could result in excessive collar material being moved radially inwardly into the pin lock grooves resulting in local necking of the pin and potential loss of overall strength of the set fastener. ", "This problem is compounded where the collar is swaged into lock grooves which are helical threads. ", "Here it may be desirable to remove the collar by unthreading it from the pin. ", "Excessive necking could distort the threads and severely inhibit such removal making disassembly of secured parts more difficult.", "\nThe present invention presents a unique response to the problem of providing a swage fastener having a high stand-off capability while providing generally equal groove fill in the pin and minimizing localized pin distortion. ", "This is accomplished by constructing the collar to be generally conically shaped over the portion to be swaged; thus the collar is of a generally uniform wall thickness with the inside and outside diameters increasing in an axial direction from the inner end to its enlarged outer end. ", "The result is a relatively small but significant radial gap separating the inner surface at the outer end of the collar from the lock grooves; this radial separation along with the conical shape serves a purpose to be seen. ", "At the same time, since the wall thickness of the collar is maintained generally uniform throughout its swageable length, the volume of material available to be swaged into the lock grooves of the pin will be generally the same across the swage area. ", "Thus a more uniform fill will be achieved while pin necking will be minimized.", "\nIn some applications it may be desirable to provide a pin and collar combination in which there is a predetermined amount of \"overpack\". ", "Overpack occurs where the volume of collar material to be swaged in the pin lock grooves is greater than the available volume defined by the confronting volume of the cavity of the swage anvil and the pin lock grooves. ", "The collar construction of the present invention provides for a more uniform overpack condition over its swageable length.", "\nAs can be seen from the prior art patents, the outer end of the collar is frequently provided with a chamfered surface adapted to engage a mating surface on the anvil of the installation tool. ", "The angle of this chamfer will have an effect on the magnitude of the component of the axial force directed radially inwardly to cause swaging. ", "With the present invention, the outer end is tapered to a large diameter and is of a lesser thickness than its beaded counterpart; by selecting the stand-off angle of the chamfer to control the radially inward component of force, this, in addition to the conical construction, will result in a collar having equal or higher stand-off values than the beaded collar. ", "In this regard it is believed that the conical structure and resultant circumferential gap require extra energy in swage before the initiation of \"primary clinch\". ", "It is believed that this combination of factors assists in resisting the radial inward force component and provides a desired high stand-off.", "\nThe collar can be constructed with a straight shank which is radially expanded to the desired conical shape. ", "Where no further thermal processing is employed, it is believed that the increase in strength at the outer end resulting from cold working in this radial expansion step provides additional resistance to radially inward deformation. ", "Thus the desired magnitude of stand-off force will be determined by the balance in hoop strength, resulting from the conical shape and enlarged mean diameter and circumferential gap at the outer end, the selection of the angle of the stand-off chamfer, and, where present, the gradient of increasing hardness at the expanded end of the collar. ", "As noted it is believed that the conical shape and resultant significant radial gap between the inner surface of the collar and pin lock grooves, permits an initial radially inward deflection, providing energy absorption, while still resisting the initial engagement in \"primary clinch\". ", "In addition, the advantages, previously noted, of uniform fill can be realized.", "\nSince one of the advantages of the novel collar structure, in contrast to a beaded structure, is to provide equal and/or increased pre-load while minimizing distortion of the pin grooves, it can also be used advantageously in conjunction with the fit up swage type fasteners as shown in the referenced applications of Dixon and S. M. Sadri. ", "In this regard the Dixon and Sadri applications are incorporated herein by reference. ", "This is especially true in certain applications, such as truck frames, where it is important that the integrity of the helical lock grooves be maintained such that the swaged collar can be removed by unthreading from the threaded pin.", "\nAs noted in the '875 Dixon application, the fit up fastener disclosed is an improvement over conventional threaded fasteners traditionally used in applications requiring a pre-assembly before final tightening of the fasteners. ", "Thus it is common to secure a structure first by attaching the associated members with the threaded fasteners loosely engaged or torqued to be partially tightened. ", "This facilitates adjustment and/or alignment of the structural members to a final, desired orientation even by partial loosening of the fasteners if necessary. ", "After such adjustment and/or alignment, the threaded fasteners are tightened to a preselected final torque. ", "Two-piece swage type fasteners are not confronted with frictional and other problems inherent in threaded fasteners and hence can provide more uniformly predictable clamp loads. ", "However, until the construction shown in the '875 Dixon and Sadri applications, the swage type fasteners have not been capable of providing the initial pre-assembly or clamp up available with threaded fasteners and still provide a full clamp with only a second, final installation step.", "\nIn the noted '875 Dixon and Sadri applications, the lock grooves of the pin are in the form of a helical male thread. ", "The collar is provided with a mating, female thread of a preselected extent such that the initial pre-assembly or clamp can be accommodated. ", "However, the female collar thread is selected to be of a limited circumferential extent and shear strength such that the collar can be brought to its final, desired clamp position and swaged to the pin via a conventional installation tool. ", "Thus for the final installation, a conventional pull tool can be used to apply a relative axial force between the pin and the collar. ", "The female collar thread is selected such that, in response to the relative axial force and at a level prior to the initiation of collar deformation or swaging (primary clinch) into the lock grooves of the pin, it will shear or deform such that the collar will be free to move axially over the pin and to respond to the installation loads in the same manner as a collar without such female thread form. ", "Now the workpieces can be finally clamped together with the same effectiveness as typical swage type fasteners.", "\nIn numerous building construction situations, the structure being built may be first pre-assembled in one position or location and then erected or moved to its ultimate position or location where the final assembly takes place. ", "In such conditions, since these pre-assemblies can be quite large, the fasteners can be subjected to separation or handling loads of significant magnitudes. ", "In other applications a high initial clamp load via torquing is desirable where the workpieces are fully engaged. ", "In those situation, a substantially limited thread may not have sufficient strength to withstand such loads. ", "In the Sadri application, while a limited thread form is used, the latter conditions are accommodated by the use of more or higher strength collar threads for engagement with corresponding pin threads. ", "With more threads or a thread form having a higher shear strength, however, the attainment of the desired final clamp load in swage could be inhibited by the resistance of the engaged thread or threads to axial movement of the collar. ", "In addition the workpieces could be firmly pulled together with no remaining gap and hence no axial movement of the collar would be available whereby the desired shearing or deformation of the collar threads would be inhibited. ", "To overcome these problems the Sadri collar is provided with a dished flange at its workpiece engaging end. ", "The flange acts as a spring or resistance member such that it will resist high separation loads and/or the torque load for an initial high pre-assembly, pre-load but can deflect or collapse upon application of the axial loads in swaging the collar for the final clamp up. ", "Thus the dished flange will permit axial movement of the threaded portion of the collar such that the engaged collar thread or threads have been sheared and/or deformed sufficiently to permit substantially uninhibited transfer of the relative axial force between the pin and collar to provide the desired final clamp load to the workpieces.", "\nHowever, in order to be able to shear or deform the increased number (or higher strength) of the engaged threads before swage, the collar must be capable of providing a high stand-off load. ", "This is accomplished by one form of the present invention.", "\nIn some applications it is desirable that the fasteners have a high strength, high performance characteristic both in clamp up and in fatigue. ", "In this latter regard then, it may be advantageous to utilize the groove shape and concepts of the invention of the '327 and '875 applications of Dixon.", "\nThus, in one form of the present invention, the lock grooves in the pin are very shallow and are constructed to have roots of a simulated streamlined shape. ", "The lock grooves are helical and define a desired thread configuration. ", "The shallow grooves and simulated streamlined shape, however, provide a resultant fatigue life which is superior to that of a comparable threaded fastener. ", "Since the preceding construction is shown and described in the noted applications and since the present invention is not restricted to such a construction the details thereof, while incorporated by reference, have been omitted for purposes of simplicity.", "\nThus it is an object of the present invention to provide a novel swage type fastener utilizing a unique collar construction having high stand-off capabilities and providing generally uniform fill of the lockgrooves of the pin.", "\nIt is another object of the present invention to provide a unique collar construction for a swage type fastener having high stand-off capabilities.", "\nIt is still another object of the present invention to provide a collar of the above described type which provides a high stand-off capability while local necking of the pin in the area of swage is inhibited.", "\nIt is still another object of the present invention to provide a collar of the above described type which provides a high stand-off capability while local necking of the pin in the area of swage is inhibited such that where the lock grooves are defined by a helical thread form the distortion of the pin threads will be minimized.", "\nIt is another object of the present invention to provide a novel fit up fastener of the above described type utilizing the unique tapered or conical collar having high stand-off capabilities.", "\nIt is a general object of the present invention to provide a novel swage type fastener." ]

[ "Introduction\n============\n\nDuring the last decade, studies devoted to the relationship between language and emotion have grown exponentially. ", "A large body of research has focused on the effects of the emotional content of words on several cognitive processes, such as word recognition, attention, or memory (see [@B60]; [@B5]; [@B53]; [@B36], for recent overviews). ", "Although the results are not entirely consistent, there is now high consensus in that affectively valenced words show an advantage in processing with respect to neutral words, as revealed in word recognition tasks (e.g., lexical decision, [@B35]; [@B36]), in naming tasks ([@B36]) or in memory tasks (e.g., [@B27]; [@B53]; [@B19]), among others. ", "Importantly, the effects of the affective content of words on cognition are not restricted to the native language. ", "Indeed, they are also observed in the non-native languages of multilingual speakers who have a certain degree of proficiency in these languages (e.g., [@B20]; [@B47]; see also [@B4], for a recent overview). ", "A relevant question is whether the affective content of words has also an effect during the very early stages of foreign language acquisition. ", "The present research addresses this issue by using a novel-word learning paradigm.", "\n\nThis paradigm has been typically used in the literature to identify the factors that facilitate the acquisition and consolidation of new words in the vocabulary. ", "Usually these words belong to a foreign language, although they can also be pseudowords or very low frequency words in the native language (see [@B11], for an overview). ", "Different training methods have been employed along with this paradigm. ", "A popular method is paired-associate learning, in which the novel words are paired with their translations in the first language (L1, e.g., [@B12]; [@B7], [@B8]; [@B1]; [@B23]). ", "Other methods consist of associating new words and their concepts by means of pictures ([@B61]; [@B7], [@B8]; [@B41]), or presenting novel words together with their definitions (e.g., [@B6]; [@B42]; [@B54]).", "\n\nTo test the effectiveness of the above methods, researchers have relied on different tasks, depending on the particular goal of the study. ", "For instance, researchers interested on assessing the number of words acquired in a prior training episode have mostly applied cued recall tasks (i.e., to produce a word in response to a specific cue, [@B11]). ", "In particular, a widely used procedure has been to ask participants to produce either the L1 translation equivalents of the novel words acquired in the foreign language (the so-called backward translation, [@B12]; [@B31]; [@B18]), or the translation equivalents in the foreign language in response to L1 words (i.e., forward translation, [@B12]). ", "Other studies have tried to determine the state of the new vocabulary, assessing whether the recently learned words behave as familiar words in different tasks, such as the lexical decision task (LDT; [@B15]; [@B42]), and exploring what different types of knowledge the learner has acquired about the new words.", "\n\nThe main focus of interest in this line of research concerns semantic knowledge. ", "Thus, researchers have investigated whether effective links between the novel words and the corresponding concepts are established. ", "To do so, they have used different approaches: some authors have tested whether the performance in different tasks is affected by the semantic characteristics of the new words, such as their concreteness ([@B12]; [@B32]; [@B42]). ", "Others have investigated whether specific semantic effects can be obtained with these new words. ", "Among them, there are the semantic priming effect ([@B15]; [@B54]), the Stroop effect ([@B23]), and the interference effect produced by words semantically related to the correct translation in a translation recognition task ([@B7], [@B8]; [@B1]; [@B46]).", "\n\nThe results of the above research have revealed that different variables can modulate the outcome of novel-word learning procedures. ", "A relevant factor is the training method used. ", "Thus, although direct access from the new words to concepts seems to be achieved with methods based on lexical associations (see [@B8]; [@B46], for recent reviews), stronger lexico-semantic links are found with methods that emphasize conceptual mediation, such as those based on picture-L2 associations ([@B7]; [@B13]), or on the presentation of definitions together with the novel words ([@B54]). ", "Another variable to consider is the time elapsed between the acquisition phase and the testing phase. ", "Most studies assess performance in two different moments: shortly after learning and then, again, after a period time (i.e., several hours or days). ", "These studies reveal that there is a decrease in performance between the two sessions, suggesting that some information has been forgotten (e.g., [@B12]) and that a consolidation period seems to be required for several effects to appear (e.g., lexical competition with similar previously known words, [@B10], or semantic interference, [@B7]).", "\n\nOf relevance for the present study is the type of word, another variable that has shown to affect new vocabulary training results. ", "Researchers have focused on cognate status and concreteness, demonstrating that cognate words are learned faster than non-cognate words ([@B12]; [@B55]; [@B8]), and that concrete words are learned faster than abstract words ([@B12]; [@B1]; [@B32]; [@B42]). ", "In contrast, the effect of the affective properties of words, in spite of their widespread study in other fields, has been scarcely addressed in this literature.", "\n\nTo our knowledge, the only study that has dealt with the effect of the emotional content of novel words on their acquisition is that of [@B1]. ", "In this study, native speakers of English learned the Spanish translations of concrete, abstract and emotion words (i.e., words that label an emotion, -scared), by associating them to their English translation equivalents. ", "After training, participants were tested in a Stroop task and in a backward translation recognition task. ", "In the Stroop task, participants were required to press a key denoting the ink color of the Spanish words presented. ", "The authors found faster responses to emotion words than to concrete and abstract words. ", "This result contrasts with the typical emotional Stroop effect repeatedly found in both people's native language and in bilinguals' second language \\[i.e., ", "faster response times (RTs) for neutral words than for affectively charged words, which are considered a result of the attentional capture by the latter, e.g., [@B14]\\]. ", "Concerning the backward translation recognition task, participants were presented with pairs including a new learned Spanish word and an English word that could be either its translation equivalent, an English word semantically related to the correct translation, or an unrelated word. ", "With respect to incorrect translations, concrete, abstract and emotion words revealed the same pattern of results. ", "That is, participants took longer times to reject as incorrect translations semantically related words than unrelated words (i.e., a semantic interference effect), suggesting that the link between the novel words and concepts had been established during training. ", "Importantly, regarding correct translations, participants responded slower to emotion words than to abstract or concrete ones, the later words showing the shortest RTs. ", "The finding of slower RTs for emotion words than for neutral words is also at odds with all the literature reporting an advantage for affectively valenced words in tasks such as lexical decision (e.g., [@B35]), naming (e.g., [@B36]), or free recall (e.g., [@B3]; [@B27]; [@B19]). ", "In light of these findings, [@B1] concluded that recently acquired emotion words do not have the same properties as familiar words. ", "They argued that the semantic representation of the former is less rich than that of the latter. ", "The reason would be that only familiar words would have been experienced in emotional contexts over a long period of time.", "\n\nAs stated above, the study of [@B1] is the only one that has addressed the effects of emotional content on novel-word learning, making an interesting contribution to the field. ", "However, the authors only tested negatively valenced emotion words. ", "As past research in word processing and memory suggests that the experimental findings obtained with negative words do not always converge with those obtained with positive words (e.g., [@B17]; [@B27]), it is relevant to compare these two types of valenced words in vocabulary acquisition paradigms. ", "On the other hand, it should be mentioned that [@B1] did not completely disentangle the effects of emotional content and concreteness in their results, since some of the words included in the abstract condition might have been affectively charged too (e.g., virtue). ", "In order to elucidate which effects are produced by emotional content and which are produced by concreteness, an orthogonal manipulation of both variables should be done.", "\n\nThe orthogonal manipulation of emotional content and concreteness is, in fact, relevant in light of a recent theoretical proposal of [@B34]. ", "These authors have proposed an embodied theoretical view of semantic representation according to which sensory-motor information would be central to the representation and processing of concrete words, whereas affective information would be more relevant in the representation of abstract words. ", "Thus, abstract words would be more affectively loaded than concrete words. ", "Importantly, [@B34] posited that the emotional content would play an important role during language acquisition, facilitating the acquisition of abstract lexical concepts and their labels during childhood. ", "To confirm that, these researchers conducted a regression analysis on a large set of words and observed that, for abstract words, valence and age of acquisition were related by a U-shaped function. ", "That is, abstract emotional words seem to be acquired before abstract neutral words.", "\n\nIf emotional content can facilitate the acquisition of abstract words, it might be possible that this modulation is not only observed when children acquire their first language, but also when adult people learn vocabulary in a new language. ", "This is the prediction we aimed to test in the present work by orthogonally manipulating emotional content and concreteness. ", "We used a novel word learning paradigm in which participants learned the Basque translations of concrete and abstract Spanish words that were positive, negative or neutral, by associating them to their Spanish translations. (", "Basque is an ancient pre-Indo-European language spoken in a small area in the eastern part of the Pyrenees.) ", "In particular, we investigated whether the acquisition of abstract words in a new language is modulated by their emotional content to a greater extent than the acquisition of concrete words.", "\n\nTo sum up, the aim of the present work was to shed further light on the characteristics of the words that can facilitate their acquisition in a paired-associate word learning paradigm. ", "We used the paired-associate learning task because it has been commonly employed in foreign-language training programs ([@B12]; [@B11]). ", "Furthermore, this procedure allows the inclusion of both concrete and abstract words as experimental materials, in contrast to other paradigms such as the association of novel words to pictures, which can be used only with concrete words.", "\n\nTherefore, participants learned a set of novel Basque words, by associating them to their Spanish translations. ", "Then, they were tested in two different tasks: a go/no-go LDT and a backward translation task, both immediately after acquisition and 1 week later. ", "These two testing sessions were included to assess long-term word retention. ", "We used the LDT to explore whether emotional content produces an advantage in the recognition of recently trained foreign words, as has been observed with words in the native language ([@B35]; [@B36]) as well as with words in the L2 of proficient bilinguals ([@B47]). ", "Regarding the translation task, it was used as a measure of the participants' success in linking the novel Basque words to their referents in L1.

", "We also investigated whether this effect was modulated by words' concreteness. ", "To do that, participants were trained on a set of Basque words by associating them to their Spanish translations. ", "Immediately after the learning phase and 1 week later, they were tested in a go-no go LDT and in a backward translation task. ", "Although performance, in terms of accuracy, was higher in the LDT than in the translation task, the pattern of results was very similar across tasks as well as over time: apart from a main effect of concreteness and emotional content, there was an interaction between both factors, indicating that the emotional content facilitated the acquisition of abstract rather than concrete words in a new language. ", "Overall, the effect was more reliable for negative words than for positive words. ", "Finally, even though there was a significant loss of information over time, which was higher for the translation task than for the LDT, the pattern of findings was very similar in both sessions.", "\n\nThis work adds to the literature in novel-word training showing that some word types are more easily acquired than others. ", "Thus, apart from cognate status ([@B12]; [@B55]; [@B8]) and concreteness ([@B12]; [@B1]; [@B32]; [@B42], and the present study), it is apparent that emotional content facilitates word acquisition during the early stages of foreign language learning. ", "In this field of research, this is the first time that a facilitatory effect of emotional content is reported. ", "Importantly, the effect is restricted to abstract items, suggesting that the words that are harder to learn are those obtaining more benefits from their affective content. ", "Although these results were only significant in the participant analyses, we would like to note that they are consistent with the proposal of [@B34], according to which the emotional content would play a more relevant role in the representation and processing of abstract words than in the representation and processing of concrete words.", "\n\nFurther studies should be conducted to establish the extent to which this pattern of findings can be generalized to other sets of items, especially because this facilitatory effect for emotional words was not observed in the study of [@B1]. ", "In that work, the authors failed to obtain either the emotional Stroop effect or an advantage in the translation recognition task for recently acquired Spanish emotion words. ", "Although the reasons for this discrepancy are unclear, it is worth mentioning that the different methodological approaches limit the comparison between those two studies. ", "On the one hand, unlike the present study, [@B1] did not orthogonally manipulate concreteness and emotional content. ", "On the other, these authors compared concrete and abstract words to emotion words (i.e., words labeling an emotion, -scared), whereas we mostly used emotion-laden words (i.e., words that do not refer directly to emotions but have emotional connotations, for example *success*). ", "Some researchers have suggested that these two word types can be processed differently (e.g., [@B43]), although the few studies which have addressed this distinction have only found slight differences between them (e.g., [@B2]). ", "Thus, further research is needed in which the contribution of concreteness and emotional content to the initial stages of word acquisition is evaluated separately for emotion and emotion-laden words.", "\n\nAs stated above, our findings support the proposal of [@B34]. ", "These authors argued that whereas sensory-motor information would be central to the representation and processing of concrete words, affective information would be more relevant in the representation of abstract words. ", "In fact, it would be through emotionality that abstract words would become embodied, as one of the functions of emotion is to initiate approach and avoidance behavior (e.g., [@B37]). ", "Thus, one might expect strong sensory-motor effects for abstract words as well, if effects are mediated by emotion, as indicated for instance by the startle reflex (see [@B28]; [@B26] for evidence of modulation of the startle reflex by the emotional content of words)^[1](#fn01){ref-type=\"fn\"}^. Importantly, as [@B52] have recently pointed out, a prediction from the embodied approach to semantic representation of [@B34] is that the contribution of emotionality to word processing would be more likely in conditions in which there are no other sources of information (i.e., sensorimotor) that can facilitate processing. ", "This is the case for abstract words.", "\n\nDuring the last years, several lexical decision studies have addressed the possible modulation of emotional effects by concreteness in the native language of adult speakers during word processing. ", "This research has yielded mixed findings. ", "Thus, whereas [@B30] failed to find any interaction between emotional content and concreteness, [@B40] did obtain it, although in this case emotional abstract words showed a disadvantage, rather than an advantage, with respect to their neutral counterparts. ", "These inconsistencies might be explained by methodological differences. ", "On the one hand, whereas [@B40] used a standard LDT, [@B30] employed a visual hemifield LDT. ", "On the other hand, whereas the experimental stimuli of [@B30] were nouns, [@B40] tested verbs and it is well-known that nouns and verbs are differently processed (see for instance, [@B57]). ", "Whatever the reason for the discrepancies, what is relevant is that the above studies failed to support the proposal of [@B34].", "\n\n[@B34] also posited that the emotional content of words would play a role during their acquisition, facilitating the acquisition of abstract concepts. ", "Our results suggest that this facilitation is also observed when people learn vocabulary in a new language. ", "The modulation of the effects of the emotional content of words by their concreteness in the direction predicted by [@B34] found in this work contrasts with the results of the above discussed studies ([@B30]; [@B40]). ", "It might be that this modulation is not apparent when vocabulary is firmly established. ", "Rather, it would be more easily observed during (first or foreign) language acquisition. ", "During this process, emotional content might help to acquire those words that are harder to learn, namely abstract words.", "\n\nConcerning the mechanism involved in the beneficial effects of emotional content, we should take into consideration that acquiring foreign words by means of a paired associate learning involves the assignment of a new name to an already existing concept. ", "The results of this study and of past research suggest that there is something about the representation of some types of L1 words that makes it easier to attach a new name onto it (see [@B11]). ", "This would be the case of concrete words with respect to abstract words. ", "Different proposals have been made with respect to these representational differences. ", "For instance, according to the dual-code theory ([@B39]), semantic representations are richer for concrete words than for abstract words, because only the former are represented in a non-verbal system besides being represented in a verbal system. ", "Alternatively, [@B50] considered that concrete words have stronger and denser associations to contextual knowledge than abstract words. ", "Finally, from a connectionist point of view, [@B45] argued that the representation of concrete words is supported by a higher number of units or semantic features than the representation of abstract words. ", "All these proposals assume that the representation of concrete words is richer than that of abstract words and this is the cause of the disadvantage for the latter in processing. ", "The emotional content, whatever the mechanism involved -- affectively valenced words having higher semantic richness (e.g., [@B29]), capturing more attentional resources ([@B48]), being prioritized in the process of binding to the context ([@B38]), or being more elaborately processed during encoding ([@B51]), would reduce the disadvantage for abstract words in the process of labeling an existing concept with a novel word.", "\n\nA final relevant result of the present work refers to valence effects. ", "We obtained a more robust emotional advantage for negative abstract words than for their positive counterparts. ", "Indeed, in the LDT only negative but not positive abstract words did show an advantage in processing. ", "In the translation task, although both types of words were better translated than abstract neutral words, the advantage was higher for negative words than for positive ones. ", "In our opinion, a possible explanation for the superiority of negative words is related to their adaptive function. ", "According to [@B48], negative stimuli contain more survive-relevant information than positive stimuli. ", "For that reason, they would be preferentially attended (i.e., the so-called negativity bias) and, as a consequence, better remembered than positive and neutral words. ", "Regarding the novel-word learning paradigm applied in this research, the preferential attention to negative words during the learning phase might have facilitated the formation of links between the Basque words and both their translation equivalents and existing concepts. ", "We would like to note that the grammatical class of the stimuli in the present study might have contributed also to this negativity bias. ", "Most of the experimental words were names. ", "If we had used adjectives instead of nouns, a different pattern of findings might have been observed. ", "Indeed, a positivity advantage is often reported for lists consisting of adjectives ([@B27]), a possible reason for this advantage being the high self-relevance of adjectives. ", "Regardless of the cause of the superiority for negative words, it is worth noting that the results obtained in the translation task suggest that this advantage is particularly strong in the first session, in which the percentage of correctly translated negative abstract words almost duplicated that of neutral and positive words. ", "This superiority is observed in both sessions, but its magnitude is reduced over time. ", "In contrast, the advantage of positive abstract words over neutral words, although slower, is more stable across sessions. ", "This result is in line with other studies in the emotional memory literature demonstrating that the superiority for negative words in immediate memory tests decreases after a delay of several hours or days, whereas this decrease is much less pronounced for positive words (e.g., [@B56]). ", "Our findings, as those of [@B56], might be accounted for by the so-called fading bias effect, according to which the intensity of the negative affect produced by any event fades faster than that of positive emotion (e.g., [@B59]). ", "This phenomenon has been described in the field of autobiographical memory and has only recently been applied to the study of emotional verbal information ([@B56]).", "\n\nTo conclude, the present study shows that emotional content facilitates the acquisition of new vocabulary and that this effect is modulated by concreteness as well as by word valence. ", "Our findings suggest that emotional content is a relevant variable to consider in novel-word learning studies. ", "Furthermore, our results can have a practical application, as they demonstrate that foreign abstract neutral words (i.e., those lacking affective charge) are the hardest to learn. ", "Therefore, teaching strategies should be directed to improve the acquisition of those words in foreign language training programs.", "\n\nConflict of Interest Statement\n==============================\n\nThe authors declare that the research was conducted in the absence of any commercial or financial relationships that could be construed as a potential conflict of interest.", "\n\nThis research was funded by the Spanish Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness (PSI2012-37623 and PSI2012-32834).

", "Defendant's motion for new trial was denied and on July 11, 1986, the trial court sentenced defendant to state prison for a term of four years on count I, a consecutive eight months term on count II, and an additional two-year consecutive term for the Penal Code section 12022.1 enhancement, for a total term of six years eight months.", "\n\nSTATEMENT OF THE FACTS\n\nCOUNT I\nAbout 7 a.m. on the morning of November 27, 1984, Sergeant Roger Enmark of the Fresno Police Department observed defendant driving a 1964 Chevrolet El Camino pickup with two other occupants in the car. ", "They backed out of a driveway on East Shields, and he followed them. ", "On Ashlan, another police vehicle, driven by Officer Brown, began to follow defendant, while Sergeant Enmark went in the opposite direction.", "\nSergeant Enmark soon resumed surveillance and observed defendant parking along the curb at 3335 West Ashcroft in Fresno. ", "The back end of the pickup was in front of the driveway of the house. ", "The two other occupants had gotten out of the truck around the corner. ", "They walked along the sidewalk into the garage, returned with a lawn mower \"and running with the lawn mower threw it into the back of the waiting vehicle and jumped into the back of the pickup.\"", "\nThe El Camino then \"took off.\" ", "Sergeant Enmark, with the help of four other police vehicles, followed defendant and stopped the El Camino. ", "Defendant was at the wheel. ", "The two other individuals were minors, one of whom was the defendant's younger brother. ", "The sergeant sent an officer to the address from which the lawn mower was taken. ", "The officer returned with the resident, Mrs. Murrietta, who identified the lawn mower as hers.", "\nMr. Murrietta, who is a gardener, had left for work that morning about 7:30. ", "He identified the stolen lawn mower as being his and stated that he did not give anyone permission to take the mower from his garage.", "\n\nCOUNT II\nOn the afternoon of July 21, 1985, Emilio Palomo was at his home on East Madison in Fresno. ", "In response to a knock at his door, he looked out *880 the kitchen window and saw a teenager at his door. ", "The young man asked if Palomo would like his trees pruned. ", "Palomo said, \"No,\" and the young man walked away down the driveway.", "\nPalomo looked out his garage door and saw a white pickup in the driveway. ", "He saw the teenager who had come to his door get in on the passenger side. ", "He watched the truck drive off, but before the truck was out of sight, he noticed that his tool box was gone. ", "He is an electrician by trade and had \"a fairly large tool box.\" ", "He then got in his truck and followed them.", "\nPalomo eventually stopped the truck. ", "The occupants told him that they did not have his tools and drove off again. ", "He recognized his tool box when they tossed it out the window on the passenger side. ", "He did not stop to pick it up, but followed the thieves instead. ", "He was eventually able to pull in front of them and get them to stop.", "\nPalomo got out and walked over to the truck. ", "He reached in to pull the keys out of the ignition, but defendant grabbed them first. ", "Palomo told them they were not to leave and that they should stay until he got the police. ", "They told him that their father's tool box had been stolen and that they were trying to replace it. ", "They were shouting at each other, and eventually a fight occurred. ", "Defendant struck Palomo with a two by four in the back of the head \"awfully hard\" and then struck him again on the shoulder. ", "When he fell to the ground, the boys kicked him in the back and in the face repeatedly. ", "They then drove off. ", "Palomo had a broken nose, a black eye, and hurt ribs. ", "He missed work for three months because of the injury. ", "His tool box was later recovered. ", "Palomo later identified defendant as the youth who had come to his door and who had fought with him.", "\n\nDEFENSE\nAs to count I, the Murrietta burglary, defendant claimed that a man offered him $10 to get a lawn mower from his garage while the man waited at a store for a friend. ", "Stuckey had forgotten the address of the house, but looked for a house matching that which had been described. ", "Thinking that the Murriettas' house was the correct one, defendant and his companions removed the lawn mower from the open garage.", "\nAs to count II, the defense was an alibi. ", "Defendant and several other witnesses testified that he was at a wedding in Delhi, 80 miles away, when the Palomo burglary occurred.", "\n\n\n*881 DISCUSSION\n\nI, II[*]\n.... .... .... .... .... .", "\n\nIII\n\nALLEGED FAILURE OF THE TRIAL COURT TO ADVISE OF BOYKIN-TAHL RIGHTS\n(1) Defendant next asserts that the Penal Code section 12022.1 enhancement must be stricken because he was not fully apprised of his rights as required in Boykin v.

", "He now contends that this was error. ", "We disagree.", "\nIn Boykin the Supreme Court held that it was error \"for the trial judge to accept petitioner's guilty plea without an affirmative showing that it was intelligent and voluntary.\" (", "Boykin v. Alabama, supra, 395 U.S. at p. 242 [23 L.Ed.2d at p. 279].)

", "513, 519 P.2d 561], where the Supreme Court held that the complete admonition pursuant to Boykin and Tahl need be given where a defendant stipulates to a prior conviction.", "\nThe McCoy court emphasized the fact that, once a prior conviction has been admitted, adverse consequences to the defendant are automatic upon conviction on the primary charge. (", "People v. McCoy, supra, 40 Cal. ", "App.3d at pp. ", "858-859.) ", "It explained, \"We do not believe that the factors which influenced the Yurko court to apply the Boykin rules to admissions of priors necessitate the same approach to the question of stipulations of counsel to certain factual matters.\" (", "Id. at p. 859, original italics.)", "\nIn the instant case, the defendant stipulated to the fact that he had been released on his own recognizance at the time of the Palomo burglary. ", "As defendant himself points out, that was merely one element of the basis for a Penal Code section 12022.1 enhancement. ", "The People were still required to prove the remaining elements, i.e., his guilt on the primary and secondary offenses, before the enhancement would apply. ", "Therefore, this stipulation did not resemble in its effect the stipulation entered into in Yurko which would automatically affect the defendant adversely upon conviction of the charge to which the enhancement was appended. ", "It more resembles the factual stipulations dealt with in McCoy and Chasco which did not \"lend themselves to the strictures attendant to a guilty plea or its equivalent.\" (", "People v. McCoy, supra, 40 Cal. ", "App.3d at p. 859.)", "\nFurthermore, this is the precise reason a complete admonition was not given in this case.
