The limits of feminism
No full textWhat is it about feminism that invites so many different opinions on what 'counts' and what doesn't? People from vastly different cultural situations variously categorise feminist practices as extreme, radical, reactionary, unbalanced, co-opted, revolutionary, elite, exclusive, progressive, passe, and hysterical. The desire of both feminists and anti-feminists to control feminism emerges as the limiting of what feminism is, whom it is for, and where it is going. The urge to limit feminism seems, in some cases, to overtake the urge to spread the word and celebrate feminism's successes. And it is not just anti-feminists who attempt to limit feminism - even feminists spend an inordinate amount of time defining certain practices out of the feminist spectrum. In this thesis, I document and analyse the way we limit feminism - its participants, meaning, practices, language, history, and future. I explore the reasons why we need to contain feminism in this way, looking in particular at those who have an investment in keeping feminism comfortably small. I invite back into the realm of feminism a wide range of activities and theories we generally invalidate as feminism, including the words of several 'unofficial' feminists I interviewed for this project. In essence, this project goes towards the rethinking of the term 'feminism' by examining the widely differing and often contradictory definitions of 'what counts.
The All Whites are alright with us: An analysis of New Zealand national media coverage surrounding the 2010 All Whites World Cup finals campaign
No full textIn June of 2010, the New Zealand men’s representative football team, the All Whites, contested the FIFA World Cup finals in South Africa for only the second time. Due to their credible on-field performances and unprecedented exposure in the national media, their campaign captured the attention of the New Zealand public like never before; surpassing even the national interest in the previous 1982 All Whites and their own storied World Cup finals campaign. Mainstream New Zealand’s sudden resurgence of interest and the accompanying rise in the All Whites’ media profile provided a rare opportunity to undertake a substantial survey of the media discourses surrounding the team in the hopes of better understanding the ways in which national audiences were likely to have (re)configured their understandings regarding the team and, in the broader sense, football’s place in the contemporary New Zealand socio-cultural landscape. Via an integration of poststructuralist textual analysis and content analysis, this thesis examined a sampling of national media coverage related to the All Whites’ 2010 World Cup campaign. Overarching themes relating to masculinity, nationalism and celebrity were identified, and I argue that audiences engaging with the media discourses surrounding these themes would likely have been encouraged to ascribe to the All Whites (a) an acceptably masculine status, (b) an authentic affiliation to New Zealand national identity, and (c) to ascribe to All Whites captain Ryan Nelsen a legitimated celebrity status. Furthermore, I suggest that these likely interpretations are indicative of an incremental but ongoing shift for football and the All Whites away from New Zealand’s socio-cultural periphery and towards its centre

No full textThe purpose of this research is to analyze and design an IP VPN-based Wide Area Network (WAN) at PT. Autocomp Systems Indonesia to facilitate employees in accessing a centralized information system quickly, stably and securely. The company currently uses a Leased Line-based WAN network, but there are many disadvantages such as high costs and low bandwidth capacity. so the authors try to solve this problem. The methodology used in this research is NDLC (Network Development Life Cycle). The NDLC method consists of Analysis, Design, Simulation Prototyping, Implementation, Monitoring and Management. To design this network the author uses GNS3 simulation software (Graphical Network Simulator-3).The conclusion obtained from this study is that IP VPN-based WAN networks can reduce costs and provide higher network speeds than Leased Line-based WAN networks
Application and expansion of the Modular Command & Control Evaluation Structure (MCES) as a framework for improving interoperability management.
No full textThis thesis introduces the Modular Command and Control Evaluation Structure (MCES) as a tool which the author recommends for command and control (C2) planners to use when addressing interoperability management problems. The framework of MCES is used to identify the inadequacies of the Marine Corps Technical Interface Concepts (TIC) as an interoperability management tool and provides some insight into how to better define interoperability requirements in terms of message exchange occurrences (MEOs). MEOs are the building block of interoperability, and they can be stored along with their elements of decomposition in an integrated interoperability database (IIDB) for use by C2 planners.Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited.Captain, United States Marine Corpshttp://archive.org/details/applicationndexp109452263
The Effect of Nanoparticle Diameter on TAT-mediated Delivery to the CNS In Vivo
No full textabstract: Neurological disorders are difficult to treat with current drug delivery methods due to their inefficiency and the lack of knowledge of the mechanisms behind drug delivery across the blood brain barrier (BBB). Nanoparticles (NPs) are a promising drug delivery method due to their biocompatibility and ability to be modified by cell penetrating peptides, such as transactivating transciptor (TAT) peptide, which has been shown to increase efficiency of delivery. There are multiple proposed mechanisms of TAT-mediated delivery that also have size restrictions on the molecules that can undergo each BBB crossing mechanism. The effect of nanoparticle size on TAT-mediated delivery in vivo is an important aspect to research in order to better understand the delivery mechanisms and to create more efficient NPs. NPs called FluoSpheres are used because they come in defined diameters unlike polymeric NPs that have a broad distribution of diameters. Both modified and unmodified 100nm and 200nm NPs were able to bypass the BBB and were seen in the brain, spinal cord, liver, and spleen using confocal microscopy and a biodistribution study. Statistically significant differences in delivery rate of the different sized NPs or between TAT-modified and unmodified NPs were not found. Therefore in future work a larger range of diameter size will be evaluated. Also the unmodified NPs will be conjugated with scrambled peptide to ensure that both unmodified and TAT-modified NPs are prepared in identical fashion to better understand the role of size on TAT targeting. Although all the NPs were able to bypass the BBB, future work will hopefully provide a better representation of how NP size effects the rate of TAT-mediated delivery to the CNS
Risk assessment tools available to inform a nurse practitioner's determination of tolerable risk
No full textRisk in health care, often discussed in terms of its tolerability, is an abstract term that is patient- and context-specific. An older adult living at risk can be someone falling frequently at home risking a fractured hip, to someone self-neglecting. Family Nurse Practitioners working in Primary Care are well-situated to support patients over time and to mitigate risk. A better understanding of the risk assessment tools available to inform a level of risk tolerability for Nurse Practitioners working in Primary Care may enhance clinical reasoning and enhance their comfort with the concept of risk, resulting in consistent care delivery for patients. Evidencebased literature highlights the complexity of both defining and assessing risk, which is further reflected within the assessment tools. For these reasons, the purpose of this integrative literature review is to provide recommendations, founded in current literature findings, regarding the comprehensive risk assessment tools used to inform a Nurse Practitioner’s determination of tolerable risk for community-dwelling older adults. A search of three databases, as well as hand searches, resulted in nine tools for analysis. The interpretation of the findings suggested that risk assessment tools varied in their approach to risk, with some focused preventatively on risk mitigation while others could be applied in real-time to assess the severity of a perceived risk. Each tool included elements of risk which together, comprise a comprehensive, holistic risk assessment to be considered in the ongoing assessment of tolerable risk. A positive risk-based approach is also a shift in risk perception that Nurse Practitioners are encouraged to consider. The implications for practice include how the described approaches guide decision-making and the definitions of tolerable and intolerable risk can steer the Nurse Practitioner’s care, as well as to inform future research and the development of new risk assessment tools.Older adultTolerable riskIntolerable riskRisk assessment tool(s)Assessmen
Development of cryopreservation methods for cherry birch (Betula lenta L.), an endangered tree species in Canada
No full textCherry birch (Betula lenta L.) is an endangered species in Canada with only a single natural population of 18 trees found in the Niagara region, Ontario. The tree was reportedly used as a medicine by First Nations and Native American peoples. The current study describes a cryopreservation method for seeds and in vitro shoot tips of B. lenta in hopes of conserving its available germplasm. Cryopreservation of mature seeds was successful with 24% seeds germinating in the greenhouse and 12% seeds germinating in vitro on medium supplemented with 10 ¾M thidiazuron or 6-benzylaminopurine. Post-cryopreservation regrowth of in vitro shoot tips was achieved using a droplet-vitrification protocol after preculture in 0.3 M sucrose for 24 hours followed by osmoprotection in loading solution for 20 min and treatment with vitrification solution A3 composed of glycerol, sucrose, ethylene glycol and dimethylsulfoxide at 0°C for 60 min. The highest plant regeneration (52%) was obtained after unloading (rehydration) in medium with 0.8 M sucrose for 30 min. Differential scanning calorimetry analysis confirmed the absence of ice crystallization in the shoot tips during cooling and rewarming. This is the first report for successful cryopreservation of B. lenta, which will further promote conservation of North American biodiversity.The accepted manuscript in pdf format is listed with the files at the bottom of this page.
