Letter from Karl I. Zimmerman and T.R. Martinez to Toshiko Chuman
No full textA letter to Toshiko Chuman (nee Nakamura) from Karl I. Zimmerman, District Director of Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) in Philadelphia, and T.R. Martinez, Acting Chief, Detention, Deportation and Parole Section. The letter regards his release from INS into the custody of her attorney, Wayne M. Collins.The Chuman (Hayao "Sam" and Toshiko) Papers documents the World War II experiences of Hayao "Sam" and Toshiko Chuman, who were Kibei Nisei born in the United States but grew up and completed school in Japan, and then returned to the U.S. prior to the war. It chronicles the Chuman's incarceration from the Santa Anita Assembly Center, through Jerome, Rohwer, Tule Lake camps, and the Santa Fe and Crystal City internment camps as well as their struggle for restoring their U.S. citizenships in the 1960s. The digital collection consists of mostly textual material, including correspondence, affidavits, incarceration camp records, lease agreements, financial documents, receipts, pamphlets, and booklets

Season 10 Episode 11: Healthcare Around the World
No full textFans of U.S. health care reform point out that many other countries provide coverage for all their citizens, and no one files for bankruptcy due to medical bills. But how exactly do these countries do it? January Series guest & journalist T.R. Reid, author of The Healing of America: A Global Quest for Better, Cheaper, and Fairer Health Care, tells of his travels comparing systems around the world. Shirley Hoogstra hosts. Episode #1011

Model for crystallization kinetics: Deviations from Kolmogorov–Johnson–Mehl–Avrami kinetics
No full text© 1999 American Institute of Physics. The authors wish to thank A. Rodríguez, J. Olivares, and C. Ballesteros for stimulating discussions on experimental issues, and E. Maciá for helpful comments. This work has been supported by CAM under Project No. 07N/0034/98 (M.C. and F.D.-A.), by DGES under Project No. PB96-0119 (A.S.), and by Contract No. MAT96-0438 (T.R.).We propose a simple and versatile model to understand the deviations from the well-known Kolmogorov-Johnson-Mehl-Avrami kinetics theory found in metal recrystallization and amorphous semiconductor crystallization. We analyze the kinetics of the transformation and the grain-size distribution of the product material, finding a good overall agreement between our model and available experimental data. The information so obtained could help to relate the mentioned experimental deviations due to preexisting anisotropy along some regions, to a certain degree of crystallinity of the amorphous phases during deposition, or more generally, to impurities or roughness of the substrate.CAMDGESDepto. de Física de MaterialesFac. de Ciencias FísicasTRUEpu
Maltrato infantil y representaciones de apego: defensas, memoria y estrategias, una revisión
No full textRodriguez, AF (Fresno Rodriguez, Andres); Contreras, RS (Spencer Contreras, Rosario); Castro, TR (Retamal Castro, Tania). Univ Talca, Fac Psicol, Talca, Chile.The aim of this paper is a review of the literature about the influence of child abuse on the formation of attachment representations. It describes the main theoretical assumptions about the effects of abuse on the defensive processes, memory systems and attachment strategies. These elements are discussed trough the presentation of an integrative model which is contrasted with empirical studies. It shows that child abuse affects the quality of attachment representations; however the studies do not take in to account all the complexity of the phenomenon of abuse. Theoretical issues discussed in this paper are marginally tested in the research reported
Gender dynamics in data collection on reproductive health: field experiences in Kerala, India
No full textReproductive health researchers tend to choose interviewers of the same sex as those interviewed. In many societies, it is considered unacceptable for men to interview women on topics of an intensely personal nature like sexuality or contraceptive use. In this paper, the author analyzes 21 interviews and 16 focus group discussions (FGDs) undertaken during a field study on the Quality of Services in the Indian Family Welfare Programs conducted in Kerala. The analysis was based on the model which identifies the principal participants in the interview as the respondent and the interviewer. In all these cases the contradiction between the gendered roles of the interviewer and interviewee are visible. However, if viewed in the context of the model provided by Briggs, it is clear that these contradictions are due to the differences in the social roles that the interviewers assumed and that the respondents ascribed to them and in the interactional goals of the interviewers and the respondents. Contradictions were also experienced during the FGDs. Educational sessions on contraception are a good tool for gathering sensitive information instead of the conventional interview, where the gendered roles are so crucial to the information gathering exercise itself

Optimalisatie staalconstructies met beperkt aantal verschillende profielen
No full textHet is mogelijk om lichte en goedkope staalconstructies te ontwerpen terwijl de rekenkracht ten opzichte van bestaande methodes beperkt is. Dit volgde, na parametrisch onderzoek, uit een afstudeeronderzoek vorig jaar aan de TU Delft, bij de faculteit Civiele Techniek. Deze methode is tevens toegepast op het constructief ontwerp van een ligger zoals ontworpen door Royal HaskoningDHV. Op verzoek licht de auteur toe hoe een optimaal ontwerp, volgens een nieuwe groeperingsmethode, met een beperkt aantal verschillende profielen goed toepasbaar is.Green Open Access added to TU Delft Institutional Repository ‘You share, we take care!’ – Taverne project https://www.openaccess.nl/en/you-share-we-take-care Otherwise as indicated in the copyright section: the publisher is the copyright holder of this work and the author uses the Dutch legislation to make this work public.Applied Mechanic
