In addition many years of service to the community went into his work as a member of the Village Council. A c 2 PRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE In a democratic society such as ours it is the privilege of every boy and girl to obtain twelve years of education at Public Expense. It is the responsibility of every boy and girl in a society such as ours to take advantage of these educational opportunities which are available to them. It Is well to remember that when privileges are abused it is possible for the privilege itself to be lost. It is my hope that each and everyone of you are using to the best advantage,the privilege which has been accorded to you,by the citizens of our community, In this school of ours. I wish you every success in your academic endeavors, and it is my prayer that you find it possible to follow the vocation or profession which you have chosen, so that the contributions you make to society throughout your life, will repay in part, the sacrifices which others have made for you. 3 Mr. E.

Here, in the sanctuary of High School, we were taught; now we must teach ourselves, tony of us came to Coaldale High from other schools, other provinces and even other countries. Among us are students of different races and of many nationalities. Neverthe­less, here, we are gathered as one class, pursuing a common goal-to seek truth,to glean knowledge, and to develop an understanding of life.As our forebearers have done and as our successors shall have to do, we too, must carry high the banners of our school. It will now be our privilege and duty to help make our nation a better place in which to live. ( Writing up the minutes, our Secretary of 1956, 1957& '58 is very neat. Ih an oratofcical contest in 1956 she could not be beat. 8ur school years can be divided into three books. Book One consisting of the elementary grades, Book Two--Junior High, and Book Three--High School. Each of these books contain chapters. It was throughout these chapters that we learned and put into action the spirit of good sportsmanship. It was also here that we learned to respect the rights, not only of the individual, but of the community and of the country. 1 believe that if we want to know where our happiness or where our usefulness lies, we will have to analyze frankly our own weaknesses. We may make mistakes,but if we are willing to learn and to profit by these mistakes and to ever press forward towards a worthy goal, then our dreams may become a reality and life a useful thing. It is tnen we can offer our gift to society; it may be as a teacher, a minister, a journalist, a doctor, or an engineer. It is a great privilege to be one of the grad­uates to pass through these halls of learning. I hope that we may be worthy of the faith and the trust placed in us by our parents and our teachers. c In the words of Shakespeare, "Parting Is such sweet sorrow". And so, we bid farewell to Coaldale High School. 8 LORRAINE HIGA JUDY JACOBSEN Yearbook------------------11 Bugle------------------------12 Dance Club------- 10,11 Curling Club--------- 12 RAY SHIMA Year Book----------11,12 Bugle--------------------9,12 Dance Club--------10,11 Curling---------------------- 9 Executive—10,11,12 Year Book--------------- 1& Bugle----------------------- 12 Dance Club-------10,11 GRADUATES GLENDA JENSEN DIRK KOK Curling--------------- 9,1C Year Book---------11,12 Bugle-----------------9,12 Glee.

ThiSj, of course, is due largely to the work of the BUGLE sfcaff members and resa report­ers, to whoa we would like to express bur thanks for the co­op aration rec eired,, But much of th© credit goes to the teaching-staff members-who enabled us to use the fact lilies of the school in prepar-lag th© BUGLE® Mr-, Baldwin, who spent hours in checking reports and getting them typed and printede deserves special men­tion, as does Mr, Solberg, who greatly helped us in connection with contributions to our Easter Issue,, As, this report is being written, preparations are under­way for a final giant--size issue of the BUGLE.,, and in anticipa­tion of the outcome of this pro-jest, we would Ilk© to express our thanks to those who will give us their cooperation, Also from the rest of the staff,, we wish good luck and success to next year’s IKJGLS-staff ® 7 s SOCIAL REPORT Vllma Pales and On .June ? „ 1957, the annual banquet and dance honoring th© grad© twelve graduands was held in the R.I.

    Informed by critical heritage studies, Pacific theory-building scholarship and Indigenous research methodologies, this article introduces Aa Norf'k Wieh - a Pitcairn descendant epistemology for understanding the experience and management of living heritage in Kingston and Arthur's Vale Historic Area (KAVHA), Norfolk Island. Central to Aa Norf'k Wieh is storytelling, reflecting the oral traditions of Pitkern-Norf'k. Aa Norf'k Wieh is captured in the article through the Indigenous research methodology of storywork, with personal family narratives revealing different ways of knowing, being, feeling, and doing heritage. Based on the storying of Aa Norf'k Wieh, the article proposes that, as a Pacific epistemic practice, Aa Norf'k Wieh has the potential to reconfigure how heritage value is understood by heritage managers, consultants, and scholars to produce more culturally just heritage management for KAVHA. The article posits that attention to this epistemology supports a shift from material- and values-based approaches to heritage management on Norfolk Island to a living heritage approach that centres Pitcairner descendants as the core community of KAVHA

    All refereed journals will soon be available online; most of them already are. This means that anyone will be able to access them from any networked desk-top. The literature will all be interconnected by citation, author, and keyword/subject links, allowing for unheard-of power and ease of access and navigability. Successive drafts of pre-refereeing preprints will be linked to the official refereed draft, as well as to any subsequent corrections, revisions, updates, comments, responses, and underlying empirical databases, all enhancing the self-correctiveness, interactivity and productivity of scholarly and scientific research and communication in remarkable new ways. New scientometric indicators of digital impact are also emerging &lt;http://opcit.eprints.org&gt; to chart the online course of knowledge. But there is still one last frontier to cross before science reaches the optimal and the inevitable: Just as there is no longer any need for research or researchers to be constrained by the access-blocking restrictions of paper distribution, there is no longer any need to be constrained by the impact-blocking financial fire-walls of Subscription/Site-License/Pay-Per-View (S/L/P) tolls for this give-away literature. Its author/researchers have always donated their research reports for free (and its referee/researchers have refereed for free), with the sole goal of maximizing their impact on subsequent research (by accessing the eyes and minds of fellow-researchers, present and future) and hence on society. Generic (OAi-compliant) software is now available free so that institutions can immediately create Eprint Archives in which their authors can self-archive all their refereed papers for free for all forever &lt;http://www.eprints.org/&gt;. These interoperable Open Archives &lt;http://www.openarchives.org&gt; will then be harvested into global, jointly searchable "virtual archives" (e.g., &lt;http://arc.cs.odu.edu/&gt;). "Scholarly Skywriting" in this PostGutenberg Galaxy will be dramatically (and measurably) more interactive and productive, spawning its own new digital metrics of productivity and impact, allowing for an online "embryology of knowledge.

    Vanadium as an important alloying element in steels was initially associated with the properties achieved following tempering. Interest in the microstructure was stimulated by the advent of transmission electron microscopes with a resolution of ~1nm together with selected area electron diffraction techniques. A second timely development was that of controlled rolling, particularly of plate and sheet products. The scope of this review will include the historical background on quenched and tempered vanadium steels, precipitation during isothermal aging, conventional controlled rolling and during thin slab direct charging and the development of strength and toughness in vanadium microalloyed steels. The characterisation of microstructure, in particular the methods for the analysis of the chemical composition of precipitates, has progressed since the availability of X-ray energy dispersive analysis in the 1970s, and the role played by electron energy loss spectroscopy in providing quantitative analysis of carbon and nitrogen in vanadium microalloyed steels will be presented. There are still many topics involving vanadium microalloyed steels that are controversial. These include the nucleation sequence of homogeneous precipitates of vanadium carbonitride and whether this occurs coherently, the composition of the vanadium precipitates, the nucleation mechanism for interphase precipitation, the importance of strain induced precipitation in austenite of vanadium carbonitride, the contributions of both interphase precipitation and random precipitation in ferrite to the yield strength, and the role of the process route parameters in developing properties. These topics will be considered in this paper which concentrates on hot rolled vanadium microalloyed steels placed in the context of pertinent research on other alloys

    A atribuição autoral (AA) busca identificar um autor de texto a partir de um conjunto de autores conhecidos. Autores deixam rastros em seus textos e é possível identificar características sociolinguísticas baseadas no estilos de escrita refletidos no texto destes autores. A atribuição autoral está cada vez mais demonstrando importância para diversas atividades sociais, em especial para a análise forense. Os trabalhos envolvendo AA demonstram resultados modestos e motivam a exploração de diferentes técnicas para melhorar a acurácia dos modelos atuais. A partir desses pontos, o presente trabalho apresenta uma proposta de pesquisa em nível de mestrado no campo de processamento de língua natural (PLN), com ênfase em AA, com o objetivo geral de melhorar o desempenho de classificadores de atribuição autoral utilizando técnicas de caracterização autoral (CA)Author attribution (AA) seeks to identify a text author from a set of known authors. Authors leave traces in their texts and it is possible to identify sociolinguistic characteristics based on the writing styles reflected in the text of these authors. Author attribution is increasingly showing importance for various social activities, especially forensic analysis. Studies involving AA show modest results and motivate the exploration of different techniques to improve the accuracy of current models. From these perspective, this project presents a master\'s level research proposal in the field of natural language processing (NLP), with an emphasis in AA, with the general objective of improving the performance of AA classifiers using author profiling technique

Most of These systems show marked nuclear hyperfine structure of the rotational lines add this has been of assistance in the analysis of all of the systems. Systems of triplet-triplet, singlet-singlet and singlet-triplet are all present and the hyperfine structure also allows assignment of the ground and excited state electron configuration to be made with some confidence

    Author Institution: Division of Pure Physics, National Research Council“Approximately 45 bands of glyoxal in the region 4000-4660 {\AA} have been photographed in absorption using a 30 ft. Ebert spectrograph with a resolving power of ∼500,000\sim 500,000 and a dispersion of 1.3 {\AA}/cm. The (0-0) baud near 4550 {\AA}, which WAS studied at a temperature of −50∘-50^{\circ} C, shows fairly well-resolved J- and K- structure characteristic of a perpendicular hand of a near symmetric top molecule. The rotational and vibrational analysis of the speetrum will be discussed.

    We introduce a chemically-inspired, all-atom model of HNBR and assess its perfor- mance by computing the mass density and glass transition temperature as a function of cross-link density in the structure. Our HNBR structures are created by a procedure that mimics the real process used to produce HNBR, i.e., saturation of the carbon- carbon double bonds in NBR, either by hydrogenation or by cross-linking. The atomic interactions are described by the all-atom “Optimized Potentials for Liquid Simula- tions" (OPLS-AA). In this paper we: first assess the use of OPLS-AA in our models, especially using NBR bulk properties, and second evaluate the validity of the proposed model for HNBR by investigating mass density and glass transition as a function of the tunable cross-link density. Experimental densities are reproduced within 3% for both elastomers, and qualitatively correct trends in the glass transition temperature as a function of the monomer composition and cross-link density are obtained
