Abstract:
Six independent tree-ring reconstructions of summer drought were calibrated against instrumental fire data to develop a 229-year dendroclimatic-inferred record of fire activity (annual area burned and fire occurrence) on the Boreal Shield, Canada. As a means of validating the statistical reconstructions of the fire activity, a comparison was made with a stand age distribution derived from a regional time-since-last-fire map for an area located at the transition between the mixedwood and coniferous boreal forests of south-western Quebec. Calibration statistics indicated that 31% of the area bur

Abstract:
In World War II the Allies and Axis deployed propaganda in myriad forms, among which cinema was especially important in arousing patriotism and boosting morale. Britain and Germany made propaganda films from Hitler’s rise to power in 1933 to the war’s end in 1945, most commonly documentaries, historical films, and after 1939, fictional films about the ongoing conflict. Curiously, the historical films included several about fifteenth and sixteenth century England.

Riassunto In un primo momento Coudenhouve-Kalergi concepì la „Paneuropa“ come un’unione di stati democratici. Purtuttavia tentò già nel 1923 di coinvolgervi anche il fascismo, considerandolo una potenza legittima per combattere il bolscevismo. In quanto deciso avversario del nazionalsocialismo, sperava fin dal 1933 che Mussolini avrebbe garantito l’indipendenza dell’Austria. Tra il 1933 e il 1936 propagò una „Paneuropa fascista“, ma la nascita dell’„asse“ tra l’Italia e la Germania portò a un suo – inizialmente poco convinto – distacco dal fascismo.

In this thesis, I argue that the question of ethics, despite claims to the contrary, is a central concern in Cormac McCarthy’s fiction. My principal contention, in this regard, is that an approach that is not reliant on conventional systems of meaning is needed if one is to engage effectively with the moral value of this writer’s oeuvre. In devising such an approach, I draw heavily on the ‘immoralist’ writings of Friedrich Nietzsche. The first chapter of the study contends that good and evil, terms central to conventional morality, do not occupy easily definable positions in McCarthy’s work. I

In understanding the program of a fire station, this project represents much more than a pragmatic excursion into problem solving, but instead focuses on the elements which give my architecture life. The notion of advertising the structure from within, the presence of cores to designate specific places, the appreciation of the quality an internal, open space provides, the love for lasting materials and the importance of the site all play a part in the composition of my architectural palette. The combination of these five levels of thought serve as the catalyst to my work and as all architectur

Abstract:
On June 26, 1933, the University of Wisconsin offered Aldo Leopold a position teaching the nation’s first graduate program in game management. The New York Times hailed it as the “one and only ‘wild-game chair.’” This was the chance he’d been waiting for. Despite the small salary, Leopold accepted. Letters of congratulation filled the mailbox at 2222 Van Hise. Among them was one from none other than the preservationist crusader W. T. Hornaday: …My Dear Ally, I salute the University of Wisconsin, for its foresight and enterprise in establishing the first Collegiate Professorship of Game Management created in the United States… . I congratulate the Wisconsin Alumni Foundation on its correct initiative in the choice of the Best Man for the new foundation… . It is all a helpful gesture in the struggle to save American game and sport from finally going over the precipice, A.D. 1940. …Leopold set up shop in “two small, rather dark rooms” in the basement of the university’s Soils Building. As an outsider to the academic establishment, he was expected to be more of a free-floating conservation resource for the state than a departmental teacher. He outlined some of his duties for the Milwaukee Journal: ...To conduct research in the life history of Wisconsin birds and mammals; develop cropping methods suitable for their preservation and increase; train men to devise and apply such methods; impart to other students a general understanding of the wild life conservation problem; assist farmers and other landowners in selecting and applying cropping methods; integrate game with other uses of land; and advise conservation officers on questions of wild life management and policy. …He was charged with giving radio talks and public addresses, overseeing soil erosion and game-cropping projects, and helping plan a university arboretum and wildlife refuge—all before the official teaching would begin. Since conservation was “a way of living on land” for Leopold, he wanted to involve as many people as possible.

Abstract:
Since Assistant Director Leopold was not needed at the lab until July 1, he took the train with Starker and Luna to Burlington to visit his mother and brothers. (Marie had married and moved to Illinois with her husband.) Together again, the “boys” immediately began plans for a trip—this time to Carhart’s proposed wilderness area in the boundary waters of Minnesota for two weeks of canoeing, camping, and fishing. Prior to trip departure, though, Aldo had to travel to Madison to prepare the way for the family move. Starker and his uncles Carl and Frederic headed straight to Ely, Minnesota, to arrange for the canoes and equipment (Luna stayed with Opa Leopold to await the arrival of the rest of his family). Their missions accomplished, Aldo and the other adventurers met and set off into the wilds of the Superior National Forest and the Canadian Quetico. The Leopold brothers had at last reached their magical North. For two weeks, the voyageurs paddled past granite outcroppings and tall pines, fishing for trout and listening to the mournful wail of loons. Aldo wrote in his journal, “The number of adventures awaiting us in this blessed country seems with­out end.” Later he added, “How Dad would have loved it! I am reminded of Isaac [sic] Walton’s terse but loving tribute—‘an excellent angler, now with God.’” Leopold and Starker returned to Madison, an “awfully dolled up town.” He had written earlier to Estella: “Nobody has any backyard except in the slums—not even a woodshed or fence or chickens—the backyards are open lawns just as the fronts. We have a little garden room at this place I am thinking of—which is not usually the case, but nobody keeps chickens, so we would do so at our own peril!” The rest of the family arrived shortly, and the Leopolds moved into a rented home “not far from the country.” Within the month, they bought a stucco house about a mile from the lab—at 2222 Van Hise Avenue—and their energies went into transforming it into a real home.

Abstract 1930–1933. The chapter begins with a discussion of the literary renaissance in Scotland, Edwin’s engagement with it, and his friendship with Hugh MacDiarmid and James Whyte, the editor of The Modern Scot. Edwin and Willa are sent to Budapest in May 1932 as representatives of Scottish P.E.N. They are glad to be back in Europe, but it is not a happy occasion, tainted by a harsh Hungarian regime and shadows of fascism. On their return the Muirs decide to move to London, using an inheritance from Willa’s mother to rent a house in Hampstead. Here they will spend five happy years, in close contact with publishers and writers, including expatriate Scots such as Catherine Carswell, George Malcolm Thomson, and younger poets including Stephen Spender, Dylan Thomas, and George Barker. Edwin’s last novel Poor Tom (1932) is his best piece of fiction, but lukewarm reviews convince him that his métier is poetry. Willa’s second novel, Mrs Ritchie, appears in 1933 as a scathing vision of a puritanical narrowness in Scottish society. More overtly polemical, it is less successful than Imagined Corners. In May 1933, Edwin attends another P.E.N. conference, this time in Dubrovnik, sadly marked by anti-Semitism and the presence of Nazi sympathizers. Back in London, Gavin is injured by a lorry while fleeing from the servant girl whose hell-fire religious fanaticism had frightened him, an already nervous child.

Abstract:
Under a range of stimulus conditions, the threshold for discriminating spatial offset in a Vernier target is finer than the retinal photoreceptor mosaic, the defining characteristic of a hyperacuity (Westheimer 1975, 1979). Over the past several years, evidence has accumulated that the visual system achieves fine Vernier thresholds using different mechanisms, depending upon the characteristics of the stimulus. The most acute Vernier thresholds, obtained for highly visible, abutting line targets in the fovea, are thought to be mediated by the contrast responses of oriented cortical filters that

Abstract:
Our ability to see fine detail decreases with reduced luminance. This worsening of visual acuity at low luminance can be attributed to at least three factors: increase in photon noise, change in the optical properties of the eye (increased peripheral optical aberrations and night myopia: Campbell &amp; Green, 1965; Coletta &amp; Clark, 1993) and the shift from cone- to rod-mediated vision, in which resolution capability is poorer (Hecht, 1928; Shlaer, 1937). Another characteristic of vision under low luminance is an increase in the integration period, defined as the duration within which energ

Abstract:
The objectives of this project were to develop the tools and methodologies for positional cloning of genes in tomato and apply them for the cloning a Fusarium resistance gene - I2.. The feasibility of positional cloning of disease resistance genes was demonstrated for Pto which confers resistance to pseudomonas (Martin et al. 1993). The Fusarium resistance gene was mapped genetically and physically and was found to be in close proximity to TG 105 (Segal et al. 1992). To obtain fine mapping of gene I2, and additional target genes in future projects, a high density linkage map was developed (Tan

Abstract:
The paper documents the sharp reduction in union density in Peru between 1986 and 1998, in a context of large macroeconomic fluctuations, structural reforms and changes in the Collective Bargaining Law in 1993. The authors find that a blue-collar job, a permanent contract, higher education and working in a large firm increase the likelihood of unionization, but only before the legislative change. Using a panel of firms for the manufacturing sector for the period 1994-1996, a negative impact of unions on profits for all firm sizes is found. In the econometric analysis, a significant negative ef

Abstract:
Building 550 (former World War II fire station) is located on Fort McCoy, Wisconsin, and was recommended eligible for the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) in 2018 (Smith and Adams 2018). The building is currently vacant. It is an intact example of an 800 Series World War II fire station with character-defining features of its period of significance from 1939 to 1946 on its exterior and interior. All buildings, especially historic ones, require regular planned maintenance and repair. The most notable cause of historic building element failure and/or decay is not the fact that the his
