No full textIn this letter of May 15, 1898, S. D. Barnes writes Horace Kephart addressing him as Friend Kep. Barnes makes it known that he is qualified and would like to be on the list as a sharpshooter for the Spanish-American War even though he cannot be present in Saint Louis to practice in the drills.Bald Knob, Ark.
May 15, 1898
Friend Kep:-
I reckon I can make
a possible [ten] on Spaniards at 200 yds.,
and I know I can march hard, live
on crawfish, and mix up biscuit in
the flour sack. if there is any
chance for me, I want to go with you all.
Have been too long in the swamps to
pass a strict examination; but this
may not be insisted upon in the ease
of sharpshooters. think that I could
stand more “Cuba” than some of the
unseasoned athletes from the high and
dry North. as I have a living to make,
I could not come to St. Louis to drill,
but I would like to be on the list
and could stand in readiness to go
when needed. is there a chance for
me? yours, S. J. Barne

Repositioning the graphic designer as researcher
Full text linkIn academic terms, the discipline of graphic design is relatively young. Consequently the position of the discipline within academic territory, and the role of the designer, continue to be debated. In part, these debates have been a product of attempts to define and defend the discipline’s borders from within, in order to establish a sense of the role of graphic design and the graphic designer as commensurate with other disciplines both within and beyond art and design. In recent years graphic designers have variously been defined as ‘authors’, ‘producers’ and ‘readers’, yet none of these definitions seem to have provided any kind of productive or lasting impact within the academy. This paper suggests that rather than continue to seek territorial definitions and positions from within, it could be more productive to look beyond the confines of the discipline. Gaining a broader, interdisciplinary perspective on, and understanding of, qualitative research methods from other disciplines may enable the graphic designer to more fully position his or her practice within the wider academy. Such a perspective could help facilitate the repositioning and redefinition of the graphic designer as ‘researcher’ - a move that would be productive in relation to the future development of postgraduate research within the discipline

cheryl-barnes/Predation_TrophicStability: Ecological Applications Publication Release v1.0.0
No full textCitation: Barnes, C. L., A. H. Beaudreau, M. W. Dorn, K. K. Holsman, and F. J. Mueter. 2020. Development of a predation index to assess trophic stability in the Gulf of Alaska. Ecological Applications.
Overview
This repository details the methods used to calculate indices of predation for Walleye Pollock (Gadus chalcogrammus) in the Gulf of Alaska (MT per year; 1990 to 2015). Pollock predators included: Arrowtooth Flounder (Atheresthes stomias), Pacific Cod (Gadus macrocephalus), Pacific Halibut (Hippoglossus stenolepis), Sablefish (Anoplopoma fimbria), and Walleye Pollock conspecifics. We used predation indices to estimate synchrony in pollock consumption and make inferences about trophic stability among demersal fishes in the Gulf of Alaska.
File Structure
Input data (survey and food habits) and shapefiles can be found in Folder 1 ('1_Data' folder). Folders 2 through 5 contain species-specific analyses and resulting estimates for each component of the predation index. Results from distribution/density models (i.e., large .rda files) were not included. Folder 6 contains predation indices (all predators combined) for each of the spatial scales of interest: basin, the area encompassed by the stock assessment for Gulf of Alaska pollock, subregion, and statistical area. Script files in Folder 6 also include variance ratio calculations, which enabled estimates of synchrony and portfolio effects. Specific analyses that resulted in publication tables and figures are noted throughout.
All analyses were conducted using R v3.6 (R Core Team 2018).
Data Sources
Total Predator Biomass: Total biomass estimates were obtained from the most recent stock assessment for each groundfish predator (Barbeaux et al. 2017, Dorn et al. 2017, Hanselman et al. 2017, Spies et al. 2017, Stewart and Hicks 2017). Coast-wide estimates for Pacific Halibut were adjusted to reflect biomass in the Gulf of Alaska.
Relative Predator Densities: Bottom trawl survey data (all groundfish predators; 1990 to 2017) were collected by the Resource Assessment and Conservation Engineering (RACE) Division of the Alaska Fisheries Science Center (AFSC, NOAA) and are publicly accessible at https://www.afsc.noaa.gov/RACE/groundfish/survey_data/data.htm. See von Szalay et al. (2016) for information about bottom trawl survey design and data collection methods. Setline survey data (Pacific Halibut; 1998 to 2017) were collected by the International Pacific Halibut Commission and are publicly available at: https://iphc.int/data/fiss-data-query. For setline survey methods, see Clark and Hare (2006). Longline survey data (Sablefish; 1990 to 2017) were collected by the AFSC's Auke Bay Laboratories and can be found at https://www.afsc.noaa.gov/maps/longline/Map.php. See Sigler and Zenger (1989) for methods descriptions of the longline survey.
Mean Annual Rations and Age-specific Proportions of Pollock Consumed: Food habits data (all groundfish predators; 1990 to 2015) were provided by the AFSC's Resource Ecology and Ecosystem Modeling (REEM) Program and are publicly accessible at: https://access.afsc.noaa.gov/REEM/WebDietData/DietDataIntro.php. For food habits data collection and processing methods, see Livingston et al. (2017).

Women and Christianity in T. S. Eliot and Djuna Barnes
No full textx, 175 p. A print copy of this thesis is available through the UO Libraries. Search the library catalog for the location and call number.This dissertation considers the formal and thematic camaraderie between T. S. Eliot and Djuna Barnes. The Waste Land 's poet, whom critics often cite as exemplary of reactionary high modernism, appears an improbable companion to Nightwood 's novelist, who critics, such as Shari Benstock, characterize as epitomizing "Sapphic modernism." However, Eliot and Barnes prove complementary rather than antithetical figures in their approaches to the collapse of historical and religious authority. Through close readings, supplemented by historical and literary sources, I demonstrate how Eliot, in his criticism and poems such as "Gerontion," and Barnes, in her trans-generic novel Nightwood , recognize the instability of history as defined by man and suggest the necessity of mythmaking to establish, or confirm, personal identity. Such mythmaking incorporates, rather than rejects, traditional Christian signs. I examine how, in Eliot's poems of the 1920s and in Barnes's novel, these writers drew on Christian symbols to evoke a nurturing, intercessory female parallel to the Virgin Mary to investigate the hope for redemption in a secular world. Yet Eliot and Barnes arrive at contrary conclusions. Eliot's poems increasingly relate femininity to Christian transcendence; this corresponds with a desire to recapture a unified sensibility, which, Eliot argued, dissolved in the post-Reformation era. In contrast, Barnes's Jewish and homosexual characters find transcendence unattainable. As embodied in her novel's characters, the Christian feminine ideal fails because the idealization itself extends from exclusionary dogma; any aid it promises proves ineffectual, and the novel's characters, including Dr. Matthew O'Connor and Nora Flood, remain locked in temporal anguish. Current trends in modernist studies consider the role of myth in understanding individuals' creation of self or worldview; this perspective applies also in analyzing religion's role insofar as it aids the individual's search for identity and a place in history. Consequently, this dissertation helps to reinvigorate the discussion of religion's significance in a literary movement allegedly defined by its secularism. Moreover, in presenting Eliot and Barnes together, I reveal a kinship suggested by their deployment of literary history, formal innovation, and questions about religion's value. This study repositions Barnes and brings her work into the canonical modernist dialogue.Committee in charge: Paul Peppis, Chairperson, English;
