Abstract:
Abstract Results of 128 radon screening tests performed by homeowners living in Jackson County, Missouri, and Johnson County, Kansas, are compared to four geologic variables. Slightly higher radon levels are associated with gray shale bedrock and loess-derived soil, but no statistically-significant relationships are found between radon screening levels and bedrock types, soil parent or soil permeability. Previous emphasis on black shales as a principal source of radon precursors in the Kansas City area is unwarranted. The single significant relationship found in this study is that homes built

Abstract:
Stripe rust has reemerged as a problematic disease in Kansas wheat. However, there are no stripe rust forecasting models specific to Kansas wheat production. Our objective was to identify environmental variables associated with stripe rust epidemics in Kansas winter wheat as an initial step in the longer-term goal of developing predictive models for stripe rust to be used within the state. Mean yield loss due to stripe rust on susceptible varieties was estimated from 1999 to 2012 for each of the nine Kansas crop reporting districts (CRD). A CRD was classified as having experienced a stripe rus

The chapter sets Brexit against the age-old trade-off between cooperation and control. As Nicolaïdis argues, the European order has undergone a number of important transformations -accentuated since Maastricht- which have increasingly altered the balance between these two poles, fostering greater calls to ‘take back control’—the political mantra of the Brexiteers. Accordingly, Britain’s predicament lies in the tension between different meanings of ‘control’, which can be explored through Kant’s three categories of law.

During the Napoleonic wars, English evangelical Christians labelled those wars divine punishment for England’s immorality but did not oppose the struggle against Napoleon, while Kant’s essay ‘Eternal Peace’ defined peace in terms of opposition to all war.

Abstract:
As late as 1911, a leading American geographer could confidently assert that blacks in the United States would always live chiefly in "the warm, moist air of the Gulf and South Atlantic states," "where they find the heat and moisture in which they thrive"; nature decreed that few would ever settle and fewer survive in the North because they could not withstand the cold. Events, though, were contradicting this blend of racial and climatic determinism. Black migration from the South to the colder states was already substantial. It intensified dramatically during World War I. A boom in labor demand in industry, along with a near-cessation of the immigration from Europe that had once filled it, drew black and white southerners alike in unheard-of numbers to the manufacturing cities of the North. The black exodus to Kansas in 1879 and 1880 had briefly looked as if it would become just such a mass interregional movement of population. But the pioneer Exodusters had suffered from the drastic change in climate, most of all because it affected their livelihoods in farming. Their skills, which lay in cotton growing, were useless in Kansas, and their experience did little to encourage others to follow. The great northward migration of the early twentieth century was a migration not to new farmlands but to the cities for factory and service employment. The difference in climate between southern origin and northern destination did not matter much to it. White southern farmers, fearing the loss of cheap labor, warned departing blacks that they would find the winters of the North too bitter to endure. The new exodus proceeded all the same, and it discredited in the process the long-held idea that either race or habit always imposed a latitudinal pattern on human movement. The change in climate from South to North did mean discomfort or worse for many who undertook it. They suffered especially from the unaccustomed cold that few could afford stoves and fuel to ward off—though they had suffered too from inadequate shelter and clothing in the southern winter.

Abstract:
For two centuries Kant's first Critique has nourished various turns against transcendent metaphysics and realism. Kant was scandalized by reason's impotence in confronting infinity (or finitude) as seen in the divisibility of particles and in spatial extension and time. Therefore, he had to regard the latter as subjective and reality as imponderable. In what follows, I review various efforts to rationalize Kant's antinomies-efforts that could only flounder before the rise of Einstein's general relativity and Hawking's blackhole cosmology. Both have undercut the entire Kantian tradition by spawning highly probable theories for suppressing infinities and actually resolving these perplexities on a purely physical basis by positing curvatures of space and even of time that make them reëntrant to themselves. Heavily documented from primary sources in physics, this paper displays time’s curvature as its slowing down near very massive bodies and even freezing in a black hole from which it can reëmerge on the far side, where a new universe can open up. I argue that space curves into a double Möbius strip until it loses one dimension in exchange for another in the twin universe. It shows how 10-dimensional GUTs and the triple Universe, time/charge/parity conservation, and strange and bottom particle families and antiparticle universes, all fit together.

Abstract:
The essay examines the notion of musical–aesthetic experience as an event of appearance in the light of the aesthetic theories of Heidegger, Gadamer, Adorno, Seel, and Gumbrecht. Despite their radically different responses to the challenges posed by late modernity and their distinctive ways of rethinking metaphysics, some underlying common concerns and insights can be detected. What appears in aesthetic experience is, for all of them, not merely a construction by the subject, as implied by Kant’s aesthetics, but rather ‘something’ that arises from the work of art itself. For Heidegger, this happens through the process of ‘enowning’ (Ereignis), while Gadamer speaks of ‘presentation’ (Vollzug), Adorno of ‘epiphanies’ of the ‘non-identical,’ Seel of ‘appearance,’ and Gumbrecht of the ‘production of presence’. There is a common insight that the status of the subject must be changed by such experiences. Instead of ‘using violence against the object’ (Adorno), a certain passivity is appropriate. Gumbrecht suggests applying Heidegger’s notion of ‘releasement’ (Gelassenheit) to aesthetic experience as a response to the ‘loss of world’ in late modernity. The essay shows how the event of appearance points towards features typically associated with the notion of musical experience as existential experience.
