No full textA short biographical essay of Grant Harris, owner of Cowtown, the oldest weekly rodeo in America, located in New Jersey. This essay was written as a part of the You're U.S. project (http://youreus.com/). Created by Emile Klein, You’re U.S. is a unique ethnographic project using arts and craftsmanship to display the distinctive character of people across America. Its goal is to create an engaging and accessible public archive of American people and their histories, an archive that provides diverse opinions and honest representations of those documented.The New York Foundation for the Arts acts as the project's fiscal sponsor.Dirk Johnson, the biographer, is a nationally prominent author and journalist known for his award-winning work as Bureau Chief for The New York Times and Newsweek magazine. He is the author of Biting the Dust and Meth: America's Home Cooked Menace

Adolescence. Talks and papers by Donald Meltzer and Martha Harris
No full textThis volume contains a representative selection of talks and writings by Martha Harris and Donald Meltzer on the key developmental phase of adolescence, from their teachings both separately and together over many years. Similar books on this topic by these authors have existed for some time in Italian and in Spanish but not until now in English.
Notes about the author(s):
Donald Meltzer (1923–2004) is widely known as a psychoanalyst and teacher throughout Europe and South America. He is the author of many works on psychoanalytic theory and practice, including The Psychoanalytical Process, Sexual States of Mind, Explorations in Autism, The Kleinian Development, Dream Life, Studies in Extended Metapsychology, and The Claustrum, all published by Karnac Books.
Martha Harris (1919-1987) read English at University College London and then Psychology at Oxford. She taught in a Froebel Teacher Training College and was trained as a Psychologist at Guys Hospital, as a Child Psychotherapist at the Tavistock Clinic, where she was for many years responsible for the child psychotherapy training in the department of Children and Families, and as a Psychoanalyst at the British Institute of Psychoanalysis. Together with her first husband Roland Harris (a teacher) she started a pioneering schools counselling service. With her second husband Donald Meltzer she wrote a psychoanalytical model of The Child in the Family in the Community for multidisciplinary use in schools and therapeutic units.
Meg Harris Williams, a writer and artist, studied English at the Universities of Cambridge and Oxford and art at the Accademia di Belle Arti in Florence, and has had a lifelong psychoanalytic education. She has written and lectured extensively in the UK and abroad on psychoanalysis and literature, and teaches at the Tavistock Centre in London, and the University of Surrey. She is married with four children and lives in Farnham, Surrey
Acoustic detection of gas bubbles in a pipe
No full textThis report describes an acoustic system designed to detect gas bubbles in a pipe. The system makes simultaneous use of multiple techniques for detection and sizing; these include six resonance-based indicators, as well as off-resonance scattering. The abilities of these acoustic indicators to detect, size and count bubbles are compared. It was envisaged that using several simultaneous bubble detection techniques would compensate for restrictions inherent in the isolated use of individual techniques. For example, whilst geometric scattering tends to be more successful at locating bubbles than sizing them, the converse tends to hold for techniques which exploit the bubble resonance. In the latter case, the greater the tolerance allowed in the estimation of the bubble size from the measured resonance frequency, the more approximate may be the conversion algorithm. Single bubbles tethered to a wire in the pipe, and a freely rising stream of similar size bubbles, are examined. Results measured in these two cases are presented to indicate the potential of the location and sizing techniques. The effect on bubble resonance frequencies of confining the bubble in a pipe is considered in detail. Standard interpretations of bubble resonances in terms of bubble size assume free-field conditions, and require modification for the pipe environment. The necessary corrections are presented for the frequency range below the first transverse acoustic resonance of the pip
Also By The Same Author: AKTiveAuthor, a Citation Graph Approach to Name Disambiguation
No full textThe desire for definitive data and the semantic web drive for inference over heterogeneous data sources requires co-reference resolution to be performed on those data. In particular, name disambiguation is required to allow accurate publication lists, citation counts and impact measures to be determined. This paper describes a graph-based approach to author disambiguation on large-scale citation networks. Using self-citation, co-authorship and document source analyses, AKTiveAuthor clusters papers, achieving precision of 0.997 and recall of 0.818 over a test group of eight surname clusters
