Abstract:
In the late seventeenth century, the Massachusetts Bay Colony’s government built its own provincial navy of several vessels to secure its coastline from French, Indigenous, and piratical threats. While the creation of provincial navies would become a regular hallmark of English colonization throughout the Atlantic world, this fleet’s flagship – the sloop Mary – and its crew would become major players in various transatlantic dramas ranging from the Glorious Revolution to the Golden Age of Piracy to the Salem Witchcraft Trials. Overall, Mary’s short service history not only gives us a novel maritime lens through which we can examine traditionally-well studied events in early American history, but also highlights the long-ignored role of Anglo-American provincial naval forces in shaping the first British Empire. À la fin du dix-septième siècle, le gouvernement de la colonie de la baie du Massachusetts a construit sa propre marine provinciale de plusieurs navires pour protéger ses côtes contre les menaces posées par les Français, les Autochtones et les pirates. Alors que la création de marines provinciales allait devenir une caractéristique de la colonisation anglaise dans le monde de l’Atlantique, le navire amiral de cette flotte – le sloop Mary – et son équipage allaient devenir des acteurs importants dans divers drames transatlantiques, y compris la Glorieuse Révolution, l’Âge d’or de la piraterie et les procès des sorcières de Salem. Dans l’ensemble, la courte histoire de service maritime du Mary nous offre non seulement une nouvelle optique maritime à travers laquelle il est possible de considérer les événements traditionnellement bien étudiés des débuts de l’histoire américaine, mais elle souligne également le rôle longtemps ignoré des forces navales provinciales anglo-américaines dans la formation du premier Empire britannique.

Abstract:
Net form of net blotch (NFNB), caused by Pyrenophora teres Drechs. f. teres Smedeg., is a serious disease problem for the barley industry in Australia and other parts of the world. Three doubled haploid barley populations, Alexis/Sloop, WI2875-1/Alexis, and Arapiles/Franklin, were used to identify genes conferring adult plant resistance to NFNB in field trials. Quantitative trait loci (QTLs) identified were specific for adult plant resistance because seedlings of the parental lines were susceptible to the NFNB isolates used in this study. QTLs were identified on chromosomes 2H, 3H, 4H, and 7H in both the Alexis/Sloop and WI2875-1/Alexis populations and on chromosomes 1H, 2H, and 7H in the Arapiles/Franklin population. Using QTLNetwork, epistatic interactions were identified between loci on chromosomes 3H and 6H in the Alexis/Sloop population, between 2H and 4H in the WI2875-1/Alexis population, and between 5H and 7H in the Arapiles/Franklin population. Comparisons with earlier studies of NFNB resistance indicate the pathotype-dependent nature of many resistance QTLs and the importance of establishing an international system of pathotype nomenclature and differential testing.

Abstract The focus of this article is on the actions of Reverend Frits Slomp, vicar of the Reformed Church in Heemse, during the economic depression of the 1930s, and his response to the rise of national socialism as a new political movement. During the depression many labourers in Heemse and Hardenberg lost their jobs. Reverend Slomp put a great deal of personal effort into helping these men and into trying to solve their social-economic problems. When in 1933 the National Socialist German Workers’ Party (NSDAP) came into power in Germany and the National Socialist Party (NSB) was gaining ground in the Netherlands, Reverend Slomp warned about the dangers of National Socialism.

Abstract:
Badminton is a sport that uses a racket tool as a bat and shuttlecock as a bat and the slop itself is a container for placing a shuttlecock with a length of 37 cm. Badminton is a sport that the majority of many enthusiasts. And began to emerge associations of badminton players who were then trained by coaches to then make a profession or their own expertise. In general, shuttlecocks are removed manually and do not know whether the contents of the slop are exhausted or still filled. Therefore, automatic shuttlecock storage devices can make it easier for coaches to provide training to students who are in the association of badminton players. This tool can store shuttlecocks and remove shuttlecocks automatically which are stored in a dislop containing 12 seeds, the microcontroller used is Arduino Uno, the servo motor is used to remove the shuttlecock that has a dislop and if the shuttlecock is not filled then the Servo Motor does not run or open to remove the shuttlecock so that the slop must be replenished, then the HC-SR04 Sensor above the slop functions as a device that detects whether the shuttlecock is still there, then there is the ISD1820 Sensor which functions as an alarm to notify by voice that the shuttlecock is up and time to refill, then a tripod as the foundation for this automatic shuttlecock storage device. The result of this research test is that 12 shuttlecock seeds were successful. In this case, it is hoped that this research can help and facilitate coaches in training in a badminton player association on a large scale as well as efficiently knowing the exhaustion of shuttlecocks.

Abstract:
To the problem of slope stability analysis and slope-cutting of rock slope, the traditional method Limit Equilibrium Method has many shortcomings as assuming the position and shape of the slip plane first. However, with the new theory of Strength Reduction Method, the problem can be easily solved. By selecting the appropriate criterion of instability and failure of sliding surface of slope, the Strength Reduction Method simulates the gradual development process of slope-cutting. By this method, we can simulate the failure process of slope and obtain the safety factors and slipping surface. This paper put forward the process of cutting slop by Strength Reduction FDM (Finite Difference Method) which had new insights into the choice of instability criterion, flow rule and slip plane.

Abstract: Microglia cells are present in the central nervous system and respond quickly to pathogenic stimuli in order to protect the brain. When these immunological responses activate inappropriately or are prolonged, they can contribute to the neuronal damage observed in many neurodegenerative diseases. A variety of immune system modulators including complement proteins, inflammatory cytokines such IL- 1 a, IL-Ip, IL-3, lL-6, TNF­ a. and Sloop, colony-stimulating factor-], coagulation proteins and matrix metalloproteases are made by both microglia and astrocytes. Additionally astrocytes, the predominant glial component of the brain, express cell­ adhesion molecules, cytokine receptors and induce nitric oxide synthease. The pathophysiology of Alzheimer's disease, stroke, traumatic brain injury, and multiple sclerosis suggest that a large portion of the irreversible damage observed can be attributed to a neurointlammatory mechanism. The immunomodulators of these diseases are reviewed and new agents within specific molecular mechanisms are presented and discussed.

Abstract:
A consensus map of barley combining simple sequence repeat (SSR), restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP), and amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) markers has been developed by combining 5 Australian barley linkage maps, Galleon × Haruna Nijo, Chebec × Harrington, Clipper × Sahara, Alexis × Sloop, and Amaji Nijo × WI2585, using the software package JOINMAP 2.0. The new consensus map consists of 700 markers, with 136 being SSRs, and has a total genetic distance of 933 cM. The consensus map order appears to be in good agreement with the Australian barley linkage maps, with the exception of a small inversion located close to the centromere of chromosome 5H. Similarly, the SSR map orders are in good agreement with SSR markers integrated into the doubled haploid linkage map of Lina × Hordeum spontaneum, Canada Park. The new consensus map provides a framework to cross examine and align partial and complete barley linkage maps using markers common to many barley maps. This map will allow researchers to rapidly and accurately select SSR markers for chromosome regions of interest for barley genetic and plant breeding studies.

Abstract:
This work deals with the iconographic programme of the Jesuits in the baroque sculptural decoration of Svatá Hora (Holy Mountain). The first chapter is devoted to the literature, which has been written about Svatá Hora (Holy Mountain) near Pribram. The next chapter talks of the history of the pilgrimage site before the Society of Jesus became active there, after its arrival in 1647 until its suppression in 1773. It was also opportune to deal with the history of Svatá Hora (Holy Mountain) during the period of the provosts in the years 1773 - 1861. I also dealt at least in outline form with the years 1871-1950, when the Redemptorists administered Svatá Hora (Holy Mountain) and made significant changes to the iconography of the compound. In the following chapter, I devoted myself to the building and artistic activities during the time of the priests of the Society of Jesus. A separate chapter is dedicated to the illustration and veneration of Our Lady of Svatá Hora (Holy Mountain). In another work, I focused primarily on the individual sculptural decorations of the pilgrimage site and its iconographic illustrations. Individual sub-chapters deal with the Marian Pillar, the Calvary statue, the Upper Terrace inside the ambit, the Prague and the Breznice Gates. In the last chapter, I dealt with the...

Abstract:
This chapter criticizes Quine’s classic discussion (from the 1950s) of “John wants a sloop”, which he claims is ambiguous between a specific and a nonspecific reading. By contrast, the negation test shows that attributions like this are not ambiguous, but simply nonspecific. Nonspecificity is extended from indefinite noun phrases to other expressions, including plurals. It is also extended from language to psychology, from the sentence “John wants a sloop” to what state John is in when wanting a sloop. There are no nonspecific houses or trees, or ordinary things more generally. But there are nonspecific intentional states, as opposed merely to nonspecific attributions of intentional states. A nonspecific state is one that involves the exercise of indefinite concepts. Both specific and nonspecific intentional states may be correctly ascribed nonspecifically.

Abstract:
AbstractThe water saving lock layout plays a key role in addressing the navigation hydraulic problems with high dams. However, the study of the propagation and development of nonlinear long waves induced by ship-lock operation in a water saving basin has received less attention so far. Specially, the mechanisms governing the formation of secondary waves and the impact of these waves on the impoundments of the basin are still not fully understood. In the present study the entire evolution of a nonlinear long wave in a water saving basin was numerically simulated. The wave shape, wave celerity and wave force were analyzed. It was found that the leading edge of a long wave propagated along the water saving basin with a celerity which varied with time and space. Two distinct stages could be recognized and defined: a rapid acceleration phase characterized by a sharp increase in the celerity with propagation distance and a gentle acceleration phase where the long wave propagated in a more gradual manner. Moreover, the water surface slop of a long wave front equal to 0.045 could be used as an estimate of the occurrence of secondary waves. Furthermore, the present results highlighted the wave force on the impoundments of a water saving basin was controlled by wave nonlinearity. These results may provide theoretical guidance and technical support for the hydraulic design and operation of water saving locks.

Abstract ‘Has anyone noticed that Sterne seems to have overreached himself and slipped in Volume Two, Chapter 8 of Tristram Shandy?’ Barbara Hardy asks, in Notes and Queries. Her query, and the explanatory note she offers, lead into a beguiling Shandean brain-twister. The ‘slip’ (which is chronological) is the more remarkable in that Sterne is a writer obsessively concerned with time in his novel. But is it, in fact, a slip? The passage in question is found on page 83 of the World’s Classics edition. At last the hero, Tristram, is about to be born. It has been a long wait for would-be readers of his life and opinions. A commotion has been heard upstairs, where a very pregnant Mrs Shandy is confined with women attendants. Downstairs, Uncle Toby and Mr Shandy anxiously wait on natal events. On hearing the tell-tale noises and bustle above their heads, Uncle Toby has summoned the servant Obadiah by ringing the bell. It is not clear exactly when he performed this act –– there have been so many Shandean digressions. But, at some point previously, Obadiah has been sent off post-haste to fetch the man midwife, Dr Slop.

Abstract:
This chapter evaluates the inadequacy of warships available at the sudden renewal of war in May of 1803. The priority was to get ships to sea and as a stop-gap solution the Navy Board turned to chartering or purchasing merchant ships for converting to warships. The search was undertaken by Transport Board surveyors who were travelling around the ports in the country looking for prospective transports. These ships, known as ‘Hired Armed Ships’ (HMAS) or ‘Hired Armed Brig’ (HMAB), operated in an identical fashion as a warship, commanded by a commissioned lieutenant or commander, and subject to the Naval Discipline Act and the Articles of War. The chapter then looks at frigates, brig sloops, ship sloops, gun brigs, bomb vessels, and small warships. It also considers the relationships between naval officers and merchantmen, before examining the shortfall of skilled seamen.

Abstract Without the life of James Pound, it is inconceivable that the third son of an obscure steward of an estate in the Cotswolds could have become a leading astronomer. Pound, employed by the East India Company, escaped a massacre of the station on the island of Pulo Condore fleeing with others to the Dutch station at Malacca on a hazardous voyage in a sloop. Back in England, Pound became the Rector of Wanstead and, after making observations, in the Indies for Flamsteed was valued as a skilled astronomer, being the first in England to use a transit instrument. Working both for Halley and Newton, he introduced his nephew Bradley to many leading figures in English science, and to some important political and social elites who became his patrons and supporters during his scientific career. Pound’s second marriage and his sudden death intestate left Bradley financially dependent on his new aunt.

Full text
Abstract:
Enslaved men and women who made serial escape attempts were often sold or otherwise transferred to new enslavers, and the story conveyed in the three runaway slave advertisements announcing that Daniel had left his masters provides clues as to how running away offered the enslaved advantages beyond the possibility of freedom. After Daniel’s first recorded escape attempt, Edward Wanton transferred custody of Daniel’s person to John Scott, the captain of a Rhode Island trading sloop. This transfer of ownership likely also entailed a shift in Daniel’s obligations and the material circumstances of his life. During his first escape, Daniel possessed fairly modest clothing—a “home made dy’d Coat” and a “strip’d home-spun Jacket.” But by the time of his second escape attempt, two years later, Daniel was a sailor and owned several changes of apparel, including “Sea Cloths and Bedding, and other good Cloaths.” His first escape attempt may have been conceived with the ultimate goal of obtaining his freedom, but it also became a bargaining chip whereby he secured a preferable situation.

Abstract:
The evolution from farmer-miller craft distilling to large-scale industrial distilling was abetted by inventions and innovations. Some inventions were directly applicable to the distilling process; others involved cognate areas such as steam-powered railroads and boats, farm equipment, glass bottle production, and improved grain varieties. The high-capacity column still went through several iterations in the 1820s, and in 1828 European inventor Aeneas Coffey patented an improved design. It underwent further improvements by American inventors. Other inventions beneficial to industrial distilling included grain elevators, slop dryers, hoists, and the barrel storage rack developed by Frederick Stitzel. Many inventions required changes in structures or transport and thereby modified the distilling landscape. For instance, the use of brick and iron in distillery buildings decreased the fire risk and permitted greater structure size and stability.

Abstract This work was done to propose a list of alternative water clarifiers. Discoloration (Sheen) was observed in sea water due to impact of overboard produced water quality and one of the causes is the type of clarifier being implemented (i.e., DTC - Dithiocarbamate), which will be replaced to a non-DTC. After this new chemical is implemented, a reassessment of the overboard produced water quality will be carried out to understand if there is the need to improve this water quality. The included the following requirements as: Improve the visual water aspect (ocean surface). Improve the water quality. Root cause investigation. The potential causes of the sea water discoloration include: Iron oxidation which is iron exposed to oxygen in the sea surface (20 to 50 ppm of iron is presented in the produced water going to the sea). Poor chemical treatment performance. Presence of Water-Soluble Organics (WSO). Presence of solids. At the conclusion of the water clarification product selection test, the following observations were made: A combination of 20 ppm of Coagulant A followed by 20 ppm of Flocculant D performed excellent, reducing the oil in water content from 36 ppm to 2.0 ppm after five minutes of residence time but with instantaneous action and separation (oil/solids and water). This combination was the best/first choice. A combination of 40 ppm of Water Clarifier C followed by 20 ppm of Flocculant D reduced the oil in water content from 36 ppm to 7.0 ppm after five minutes of residence time. 100ppm of Scale Remover E or Scale Remover F to treat Slop water. This recommendation helps to improve flow back from Slop tanks or cargo tanks with water from those vessels. Usually Slop water present many solids and iron content. Both products were tested against a Slop water/produced water combined.

Abstract:
An Excel Velocity Prediction Program has been developed to allow for rapid evaluation of yacht performance at the initial design stage. The required input consists of only the basic hull and sail dimensions. Empirical equations, based on these basic dimensions, are used for initial estimates of required hull parameters. As the design progresses the user can easily replace these default values with refined estimates or actual values. Because of its simplicity, and short turn around time, the program has been used as a teaching aid at the University of Michigan. Reconstruction of the program, PCSAIL, may be made with equations and other information provided in the Appendix. The Excel "Solver" has been found to be a reliable means of finding the equilibrium boat speed and heel angle. It seeks the maximum boat speed by adjusting the sail flattening factor, F, and reef, R, and the lateral location of the "movable crew." In the case of a hinged centerboard, or dagger- board, it will also adjust the draft for maximum boat speed. For sloop rigs the program will also take in the jib and set the spinnaker, at the appropriate wind angle, in order to gain maximum boat speed. The program plots the speed "polar," and velocity made-good, and determines the tacking angles.

Abstract:
A great deal of research, both computational and experiment based, has been carried out on the optimisation of hull geometry for minimal hydrodynamic resistance; however, rather less effort has been expended on the equivalent problem of optimising the sailplan geometry. The goals of the optimisation procedures which have been adopted for sail optimisation are somewhat diverse; some researchers have concentrated on the maximisation of aerodynamic drive force, with or without constraints on heeling moment, whilst other approaches have included simple representations of hydrodynamic sideforce and induced drag. Much of the work has concentrated on optimisation of the distribution of aerodynamic lift over the sailplan without specifying how the lift distribution may be achieved in practice if indeed the lift distribution can be obtained within the practical constraints of conventional rig technology. It is argued here that, from the point of view of yacht design, an appropriate goal for the optimisation is the selection of the sailplan geometry which yields the best performance for a given hull form over a suitably weighted range of windspeeds. In this work, the aspect of performance considered as being of primary importance is upwind speed. A method is presented by which the principal dimensions of the rig - luff length, foot length etc. - may be chosen so as to maximise upwind or close reaching speed for a particular yacht in a given wind strength. The aerodynamic performance of the rig is predicted using a non-linear vortex lattice model; viscous effects, including the effect of the mast, are included using an ad hoc approach based on two dimensional experiment data. The hydrodynamics and hydrostatics of the hull are obtained using a performance prediction approach based on the well known Delft yacht hull series. Optimisation of the rig geometry is carried out using a stochastic technique known as a structured genetic algorithm. Results are presented for two variations on the sloop rig; the first employs a mainsail with an essentially triangular planform, whilst the second allows the inclusion of a substantial roach, leading to sails of the form normally associated with full length battens. The hull forms considered include typical examples of both modem and slightly older racing yachts. The sensitivity of the geometries obtained to constraints unrelated to upwind speed - such as structural integrity or offwind sail carrying capability - is also illustrated.

Abstract:
Access to the suction pipe in a main drain can occur whenever the sump cover is unfastened, broken, or missing. An arm or leg can be placed, sucked, or propelled into the pipe where the limb can be trapped by various mechanisms including suction, wedging, and tissue swelling. Although their success rate is unimpressive, there are a number of mitigation strategies for limb entrapment that are based on reduced pressure differential. These strategies are thoroughly examined in this paper. None of these compare however to the classic notion of preventing entrapment in the first instance. Restricting the pipe opening to small apertures through the use of permanent cross-members eliminates the limb entrapment hazard. Unfortunately, the cross-member solution used, for example, in tubs and slop sinks introduces new hazards that were not present in the open pipe; hair entrapment, finger entrapment, and mechanical entrapment (e.g. swimwear). This paper introduces a pipe insert at the entrance to the pipe that uses permanent fins to provide anti-limb entrapment. The fins are designed with an iso-friction profile to shed hair that may be entrained into the pipe. The equation for the profile is obtained in polar coordinates. The geometry of the fins minimizes finger and mechanical entrapment. Scallops are included around the edge of the pipe that inhibits body entrapment which can restrain a child with a suction force of 50 to 100 lbf (222 to 445 N). The use of an anti-limb entrapment insert together with a retrofittable anti-evisceration ring will achieve the same entrapment protection with or without a sump cover.

Abstract:
The effect of humidification on aging of local membrane electrode assembly (MEA) was investigated using dynamic cycling-change output current measurements. During the investigation, the active area of MEA was divided into 8 segments from upstream to downstream. The experiment was carried out before activation and those results served as bench mark for the results obtained after activation. The results of humidification of MEA were collected from the high frequency resistance (HFR). It was found that HFR of the first region was largest due to less water humidification. With the gas flow to the downstream, the concentration of vapor and liquid water was high, the MEA was humidified and consequently the value of HFR also decreased. The flooding in the last segment was might be due to the accumulation of water. This phenomenon resulted in the undershoot of HFR curve. The HFR curve would become steady when the flooding was removed at the last segment. The experiment of dynamic output current was carried out for 450 cycles and the total time was about 150 hours. It was found that the polarization curve became steady had less differentiation between each segment after 450 cycles of dynamic output current measurements tests. The slop of cyclic voltammetry (CV) curves charts increased from region 6 to region 8. It was supposed that the water content in the MEA was less at low loading condition and the MEA become dried. But the water content was more in high loading condition. The MEA would be in the cycle of expansion and contraction during the drying and humidification exchange process. The result suggested that the membrane might be affected easily in the downstream. Besides, the surface area of catalyst would also decay the peak of CV curve due to the water flooding which might block the mass transfer resulting in fuel starvation, carbon corrosion and catalyst degradation in downstream.
